Chapter 171 170. Finding doubts

Xuezi shook her head: "She has been sitting in that corner by the window, embroidering almost all the time. She stayed up late the day before yesterday to finish embroidering my bright yellow cheongsam. Her hands and feet are quick, she is very diligent, and she doesn't talk much. She is a

A very nice girl."

Xuezi had a good impression of Sihui.

"Then when will she leave your house?"

"Yesterday, and I took the initiative to let her go. She has already finished embroidering the cheongsam, and I don't have anything to embroider here for the time being." Xuezi told the truth: "Besides, I think her presence here will make Mitsuo uneasy."

, so I asked her to go back first."

"You said this embroiderer stayed up all night embroidering cheongsam the day before yesterday. Could she have sneaked into the storage room at night?"

Xuezi shook her head: "I don't think it's possible. She has a lot of embroidery work on her hands. Before I went to sleep, I saw that Ah Hui had only finished embroidering the two butterflies at the back, and the lily pattern in the front had not yet been embroidered. And she later

I also embroidered a sachet for Boss Jade. I think she didn’t have time to explore the storage room, otherwise she wouldn’t have been able to finish it. Besides, if she wanted to enter the storage room, she must have a key. Guangfu never had the key to the storage room.

Also, the door of the storage room is a little deformed. When it is opened and closed, it will make a rattling sound. And I am very alert when sleeping. I can hear the slightest noise, but I didn't hear the door of the storage room at all the night before.

Make a sound."

After listening to Xuezi's story, Watanabe felt that there should be nothing wrong with this embroiderer, and Boss Jade seemed to have no problem either. He just recommended an embroiderer to Xuezi.

It seems that I am too worried. Maybe the truth is indeed as Oshima said, it is a coincidence, a coincidence with extremely small probability, but even if the probability is small, it still happened.

This made Watanabe believe that all this was God's will.

Watanabe went to ask his servants if any strangers had entered Xinlu in the past few days.

"Let me think about it." Uncle Zhang suddenly remembered: "Oh, by the way, Mr. Watanabe, Tailor Dong came here twice, once to take measurements of Mrs. Seto, and the other time to deliver clothes.

It was just one day later, and Tailor Dong was accompanied by the butler. But Tailor Dong should be considered an acquaintance, didn't he make the clothes for you, Mr. Seto and Mrs. Seto?"

"Apart from Tailor Dong?" Watanabe felt that Tailor Dong didn't look like a suspect: "I'm talking about a stranger."

"By the way, by the way, yesterday someone from the epidemic prevention station came to give the medicine." Uncle Zhang suddenly remembered that a tall man from the epidemic prevention station came to Xinlu yesterday.

"Someone from the epidemic prevention station came into Xinlu to give some medicine? What medicine to give?" Watanabe felt a little strange.

"He said that a lot of termites have been found in the city recently, so we have to go door to door to spray potion around here. This man is tall and big, I estimate that he is over 1.8 meters tall, and he is very strong."

When Watanabe heard this, he quickly went to the study to make a phone call: "An epidemic prevention station? Have you recently sent people to spray termite control potions near Xinlu?"

The person on the other end of the phone was stunned, and then replied: "Some citizens reported that termites were found in their homes, and we sent staff to these households to eliminate termites."

"Have you sent anyone to Xinlu to apply ant-killing liquid?" Watanabe asked.

"It seems not."

"Is there any?"

"Probably not."

"So, are there any tall people over 1.8 meters tall among the staff responsible for dispensing the potions?"

"No, no one here is that tall. The tallest one shouldn't be more than 1.75 meters tall!"

Watanabe hung up the phone and then asked Uncle Zhang: "What does that man look like?"

Uncle Zhang shook his head: "That man was wearing a white coat, a mask, and a straw hat. I can't tell what he looked like."

Watanabe sighed, but no matter what, he finally got some clues. It seemed that the tall man was most likely the murderer.

But if this tall man is the murderer, then how did he know that Seto put two sets of counterfeit money templates in the storage room? Only Mitsuo and Yukiko live in that villa, but in recent days there have been many

I married an embroiderer. Is there really something wrong with this embroiderer? But from what Xuezi said just now, she didn't find anything wrong with this embroiderer, and this embroiderer had never been in contact with the Seto family's storage room.

It's really strange.

Watanabe felt that he was at a loss. Except for the tall man who came to Xinlu to get the medicine, he didn't find any other accomplices in Xinlu. The tall man appeared suddenly as if he had fallen from the sky.

In Xinlu, in the name of applying potion, he waited for an opportunity to kill Seto, but what was all this for? Only God knows!

At this time, the phone rang, and Watanabe quickly answered the phone: "Hello, who is this?"

"It's me."

Watanabe recognized the voice of his uncle Miyamoto: "Uncle, what can I do for you?"

"I just received a call from the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters. They have sent a DC-2 plane to Nanchang. The plane will arrive soon. It will take off in the afternoon the day after tomorrow to send the American to Shanghai. You can prepare yourself!"

"Okay, uncle. How many people can fit on that plane?"

"In addition to the captain and two flight attendants, there can be about ten people seated!"

"Okay, I understand." Watanabe thought about it, and then said to Miyamoto: "Uncle, it seems that the hornet's nest that appeared in the Seto family's storage room is not a coincidence. After investigation, I found that there was more than one person yesterday.

A tall man of 1.8 meters claimed to be a staff member of the Epidemic Prevention Center and came to Xinlu to inject medicine. I just called the Epidemic Prevention Center and the result was that they could not find this person. This shows that the purpose of this person’s coming to Xinlu was not the same.

It’s not simple, but today suddenly a vicious case occurred where Seto was stung by a wasp, and in the process of eliminating the wasps, the counterfeit banknote templates were also burned. So I think this person is highly suspicious."

"You did a good job, Aosuke, but apart from that, did you find any other clues?"

"Not yet."

"Then you put this case aside for a while. After sending the American pilot away, you can go all out to solve this case."

"I got it, uncle, then I'll let Oshima and the others go back to the military police headquarters first."

"Okay, Sosuke, you have to comfort Mrs. Seto."

"I understand, uncle."

After Watanabe hung up the phone, he walked out of the study, found Oshima, and asked him to evacuate the intelligence section personnel first, and then asked him to write a detailed case analysis report to him about today's investigation.

Oshima nodded, and then the people from the Intelligence Section withdrew from Xinlu.

Watanabe came to Danyuan and said to Fu Xinghan and Ah Hui: "You two, get ready. We will take a flight to Shanghai together the day after tomorrow."

Fu Xinghan did not expect that Watanabe would not ask him whether he was willing to go with him, so he simply gave the order. This was exactly what he wanted. Originally, the boss wanted him to go to Shanghai with Ah Hui so that they could take care of each other.

"Are we leaving the day after tomorrow?" Fu Xinghan asked quickly: "What about Mr. Seto's funeral?"

The purpose of Fu Xinghan's question was certainly not to worry about Seto's future, he wanted to find out what plans Watanabe would have before leaving tomorrow.

"I plan to cremate Seto-kun's body tomorrow! Alas, I have known Seto-kun for more than thirty years, but I didn't expect that he would die in a foreign country in the end, and his death would be so strange, so painful, and unbearable

I believe it is really disappointing!" Watanabe said sadly.

"What about Mrs. Xuezi?" Fu Xinghan asked immediately. After all, he and Xuezi had a one-night stand, and he would inevitably feel pity for Xuezi.

"Let Yukiko return home with Seto's ashes!" Watanabe sighed: "He was a living person when he came, but he left like a cold pile of ashes."

"Mr. Watanabe, don't be too sad. Everyone has his or her own destiny. Maybe Mr. Seto does have a disaster in his life." Ah Hui comforted Watanabe.

"But according to the information I have, Seto-kun's death was not a coincidence, but someone did it intentionally."

When Fu Xinghan and Ah Hui heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other and Watanabe in surprise.
