【203】Choose A Murderer.

After sending Terumi Mei home, Yagyu Satoru came to Mizukage's office and had an interview with Zhimei.

"What the hell is going on? Why does the whole Kirigakure seem to be panicking?"

Other than the coming of the Great War, Yagyu Satoru really couldn't think of any other reasons that would make everyone fear equally.

But if it is a war, it is impossible for Konoha where he is not to know.

What is the reason?

"Master Wu...you may not believe these words, but Kirigakure really has ghosts!"

"What?"

Yagyu Satoru suddenly found out that he seems to have gotten into the word "ghost" recently.

The last "ghost" is the finger of the two-faced Su Nuo. I don't know where the sage got that finger, and he knows that it has the function of absorbing unknown, but maybe that thing appeared in front of his eyes, which is someone or some people's expectation. hope.

"Man-eating ghost! It's everywhere, and in just half a month, more than a dozen people have died.

On average, one person dies a day, which is sensational news in Kirigakure.

Under Zhimei's explanation, Yagyu Satoru finally knew what happened.

It turns out that everything has gone wrong since the first person died in the village half a month ago, 443

The first person who died was an old man who lived alone. There were countless bite marks on his body. The fatal injury was the tooth mark on his neck, which looked like a wolf or a tiger.

At the beginning, everyone thought it was Yamanaka's beast, and Terumi Mei sent people to look for it on the mountain, but they found nothing.

Later, four or five people died one after another, and the murderer also changed from a "beast" to a "ghost".

It could only be a ghost. Yamanaka did not have man-eating beasts. There were no scratches on the bodies of the dead, and they were all killed with a blow from the neck, sucked the blood from their bodies, and ate their flesh raw.

It is difficult for a human being to do such a cruel practice, so it can only be attributed to "ghosts".

"That is to say, you don't have any proof expression now, is this thing done by a ghost? You don't even know if there are ghosts in this world?"

Zhimei could not help but lower her head.

"This is the best choice..."

They have no other way to go. If they continue to die like this, they may fall on their own heads one day. Everyone thinks so.

What Yagyu Satoru said was right, they investigated for half a month and found nothing, no beasts were found, whether the sixteen dead were related to each other, had no common hatred, and Kirigakure had no outsiders, only "ghosts".

There must be a murderer, otherwise the villagers will panic even more!

"Does this murderer have to be a ghost?" Yagyu Satoru said suddenly: "The reason why people are afraid of ghosts is because of the absolute difference in strength. Their aptitude is unable to resist, so they are so afraid. You have arranged a murderer who is 'unable to fight'." 'Come out, is it the best choice?"

Zhimei was speechless.

Although this matter was made by Mizukage-sama, but as bodyguards, they did not give more sensible suggestions and better choices, and she is also responsible.

"My lord, please redeem!" Zhimei suddenly knelt down to Yagyu Satoru and said, "Master Qing, help us Kirigakure!"

"I can't bear such a big gift, let's talk about it after Terumi Mei wakes up."

"Mizukage-sama has also been tired for a long time. To be honest, since you came, at least we can see hope."

"I? Is it hope for you?"

Yagyu Satoru was a little surprised.

Hope in despair is a very heavy responsibility, and Yagyu Satoru thinks that it is not so important to them.

Where did this honor come from?

Is it only based on the lace news with Terumi Mei?

"My lord, Master Mizukage was tortured because of Yamada's incident before. In fact, everyone knew it in his heart, but after so many years, no one can help her. You are the first and only one. Since you came, Your Excellency has become better, everyone can see this, everyone is very (ajdg) grateful to you.

After hearing this, Yagyu Satoru thought for a long time, and said: "I see, thank you for telling me this, you can also go to rest, let me think about it, what should I do about this matter.

"I'll accompany you here."

"If you don't believe me, you can give me another place to stay."

Yagyu Satoru thought that the other party was afraid that he would mess around in Mizukage's office. He had no interest in meddling in the government affairs of other countries.

Realizing that Yagyu Satoru misunderstood herself, Zhimei quickly shook her hands and explained: "No, no, I didn't mean that, I just want to stay and help you, if you need other information, as long as I know it, I will tell you of.

"No, I need to think in my stomach. You go back first and come back at dawn."

There are less than three hours left to Li Tianliang, Zhimei looks very tired, Yagyu Satoru is not too difficult, and he really needs quiet.

Under Yagyu Satoru's repeated insistence, Zhimei walked away step by step.

Yagyu Satoru was sitting alone in the office, looking at the list of the dead and their recent conditions investigated by the Hokage office, it dawned before he knew it.

As the winter sky was pierced by a touch of white, Kirigakure, which was supposed to be full of vigor, seemed to have fallen into the tranquility of another dimension.

No one came out to sell the goods along the street, and those shops were not operating normally, and the whole land was lifeless.

Yagyu Satoru stood upstairs in the office, watching Kirigakure's current situation, feeling a little depressed.

He felt that the time was almost up, so he took the documents related to the case and went downstairs. Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he saw a "it" person at the door.

That's right, Zhimei may be too tired. Her legs are bent, but her upper body is on the ground and her head is resting on her arms to sleep. This posture is uncomfortable at a glance, but she sleeps so peacefully that even she can't sleep. I didn't notice it when I was around.

"Zhimei?"

Yagyu Satoru patted her, but there was no response, so he simply picked her up and sent her to the sofa in the office.

Before leaving, Yagyu Satoru felt someone pulling the corner of his clothes, and when he looked back, Zhimei was rubbing his eyes in a daze with the other hand.

"Hmm...my lord, is it dawn yet?"

Yagyu Satoru said softly: "Well, it's dawn, you can go to sleep, I'll go to the houses of the dead.

"ah!"

Zhimei seemed to be awake at this moment, jumped up from the sofa, and subconsciously let go of Yagyu Satoru's sleeve.

"My lord, I'm sorry, I overstepped.

Does she mean the act of sleeping at the door, or the act of pulling her sleeve while half asleep?

It seems to have both. .
