asked the general.

"It has been washed away by the water. You can look for it along the ditch. I don't know the rest. You can ask dad."

The girl pointed in the direction of the village chief, which is where they left just now.

"Who is your father...?"

the general asked.

"Konada Densuke."

Is that your dad? !

The general almost asked, if that's really the case, then he's a little worried... No wonder he's so energetic.

"Actually, I was adopted by him, so I naturally called him dad, hehe."

The girl scratched her head and smiled foolishly.

So that's it... this 'dad' is not that dad... It seems like she's worrying too much.

"Thanks for letting me know..."

After getting up, they exchanged glances with each other and walked away together.

After that, she and the masked girl named Hua Sanli beside her asked almost everywhere in the village, whether it was the little girl named Shuangye, the little girl's nephew Xiaomeng, or the village head. It should be said that the relationship between the son's old man and the old woman is quite complicated, and even she, who is still clear-minded, is a little confused.

But such laborious inquiries have yielded many results. Among these people, they have come up with three clues that can be regarded as clues.

One of the suspicious things I heard from Futaba was that the bag floating in the ditch during the heavy rain was said to have been washed downstream of the river.

The second one is from the boy named Xiaomeng. At that time, this boy was still playing on the eaves. He accidentally slipped and fell from the top. Fortunately, she caught him at the critical moment and was not injured.What a naughty kid. Regardless of whether the 'ghost' that the other party saw occasionally was Hua Sanli, I did get a rare piece of information from the other party, that is, the half-damaged trolley at the entrance of the village was abandoned by someone unknown. of.

The third thing is... what the old woman said was that there was something fishy about the well in the backyard of the village chief's house.

'Obviously there is plenty of water, but the well at Konta's house has always been dry. I don't know who locked the mouth of the well at night. Isn't this kind of thing suspicious? '

'At that time, I heard that there were a lot of scattered mola bags in the dry well behind the village chief's house. Later, a group of rogues came and almost all of them were picked up. '

The other party told the two of them this time.

--That's about it.

Bags from ditches, half-damaged wheelbarrows, and the village chief’s well.

呲呲!

"Yah~!!"×N

She raised her hand and a pearl-like lightning particle appeared. The particles left her palm and floated silently into the crowd of people, and then there was a 'click'!

A hurricane-like thundering current erupted in the center, and it only took a second to wipe out several Qiuqiu people in front of her... She was a little too lazy to care about these guys, so out of convenience, it was better to destroy them all, and walked to the car I looked around the cart to see what it looked like inside.

Ok?

She turned her eyes and saw a piece of paper lying quietly in the corner that looked like a list. The paper was a little worn, but the writing on it could be vaguely read.

He reached out and took it out and read the contents.

"The shogunate's inventory of goods and... payments."

She whispered softly subconsciously.

clatter...

There was light footsteps behind him.

"Did you find it too?"

Hearing the sound, he turned to look at Hua Sanli, who was walking over. He was also holding a clue in his hand, which was a soaked cargo bag.

She must have gone downstream to look for him while she was on her way here. She also noticed that the pure white footbags wrapped around her feet were soaked through, and the skin color of her soles was slightly visible, which confirmed her suspicion. .

Such silent help... She always felt that the other party revealed a quiet sense of well-being.

After Hua Sanli felt the general's gaze, she didn't care, and silently walked to her side and offered the bag with both hands.

"During the process, I just happened to drop by... and help you get it."

"...It's not just along the way, but you just want to get it, right?"

She exposed the other person's little excuse with a smile.

"... Huh... I still can't hide it from the eyes of adults."

Because the other party was wearing a mask, she couldn't see his expression at this moment, but she could hear a hint of shyness on the other side.

"That's it...let's go, there's one last place left."

"Ah."

The last place is next to the well... Just as the old woman said, this well is locked and requires a specific key to open it.

"..."

The general looked at the wooden manhole cover and put his slender fingers on his chin, thinking.

Hua Sanli glanced at the beauty beside her who was thinking silently, then lowered her head and quietly turned around by the well.

this is?

He knelt down and took out a worn-out mola bag from the wooden barrel beside the well. This was also the clue that the other party mentioned at that time.

"Sir...look at this."

The general came back to his senses and looked at the bag in the opponent's hand.

"...I think you are more suitable to be an assistant than a miko."

"Haha... Your Excellency has given you too much praise. It is Hua Sanli's honor to be able to help you."

The girl smiled and shook her head slightly, and she liked the pure aura in her words.

Now that she had obtained three pieces of evidence, she was going to confront the old man. She could feel that things must not be simple. The other party must have some ulterior secret or a deal. He looked nervous from the beginning. It’s not hard to see.

clatter...

"Huh? It's you again!"

Konda Densuke noticed the sound of multiple footsteps around him and turned his head to look. He complained impatiently when he found that it was still the two women just now.

"I told you that there is nothing suspicious about us, and there are no secrets—"

"What if there is evidence~?"

The general interrupted him directly and asked in a special tone.

"Wha—! Evidence?! Where is the evidence?! I don't care!"

Come on, this guy is starting to cheat.

pat...

The general directly threw the Mora bag, the shogunate's material list, and the worn bag on the table in front of the other party.

"Explain."

The originally soft voice became slightly colder... as if he had returned to the posture of General Thunder in an instant, which frightened the old man.

"!!"

Konda Densuke trembled... looking at all the evidence in front of him, he was choked and speechless.

"You... who the hell are you?!"

"It doesn't matter who I am... what matters is your answer, please explain."

Her voice was slightly cold, and she said the last sentence very emphatically, as if with a hint of chill, and even a little dark belly, although she deliberately added the word "please" politely, but anyone can tell that this is not a plea But... an order!

"...What can these things mean? I, my body is upright and I am not afraid of the shadows being distorted!"

Konda Densuke wiped his sweat and continued to quibble.

"There is sweat on the forehead, the pores are constricted, the pupils are constricted, the fingers are trembling, and the voice is trembling, you... are lying."

"!"

Every word in this sentence will give the other party a cleverness, as if a critical strike... Finally, with the end of the words, he sighed as if giving up, and facing the woman's slightly narrowed eyes, he felt that he would Choked, almost had a heart attack.

Who is this person? !

——General, he, he should be afraid of you, right?

During this period, Hua Sanli complained helplessly in her heart, after all, no one could stand the look in her eyes just now~!

"Oh...well...since you've already said it, I won't hide it."

Konda Densuke sighed and looked at the horizon in the distance.

"It's like this-"

Afterwards, the village chief Konda told her and Hanasari the whole truth about the matter.

The general content is... There was originally a group of young people in Konta Village who drank alcohol. After drinking, they were so bold that they robbed the shogunate's cargo truck. These bags and lists were the dirt left behind at that time.

But when Konda Densuke, who was dedicated to the village, found out about the incident and thought that village ugliness should not be publicized, he helped conceal the troublemakers on his own in private. Even if the incident was discovered, he was prepared to bear the crime himself. It should be said that he is worthy of being the village chief. In terms of consciousness, he is still aware. It is also his responsibility to protect the children in those villages.

So this matter just dropped... and has been postponed until now.

"Please, please don't report it to the shogunate. This is not a matter of my face! I am afraid that our entire village will be implicated!"

The old man was about to kneel down for her at this moment...

"Huh... that's it, let's end this matter. Are the dirt still there? After this body is passed, Tian Ling will take it back. Don't worry... it's just taking back the dirt, and you won't be implicated in anything."

The general sighed slightly, she was not the one to embarrass the old man.

"Yes, yes! Oh... thank you so much, sir!"

The village chief is so grateful. Since he has something to do with the Tianling practice, he must be a senior member of the shogunate. With such a young and beautiful figure, could he be the daughter of the shogunate?

"And the key to the well... do you have it?"

"Yes! Here you go!"

Even the title changed, and he quickly took out the key and presented it with both hands.
