Chapter 1578 Gao Yuan’s helplessness

Looking at this mysterious samurai's fighting style, Michiko Tetsu felt the opponent's determination to kill Gao Yuan, as well as the fighting style that did everything in order to kill people, and the fighting style that was almost done in one go without giving the opponent much chance to react. , is a completely unforgiving technique, which is completely different from the styles of the major schools today. It was inevitable that Michiko Tetsumi felt this way, so she came up with the sentence just now.

At the same time, because he had witnessed the mysterious samurai's attack with his own eyes, Shizuka Hattori looked at the opponent's tactics and couldn't help but compare them with the ones he remembered Shiro Shiro used when he won the championship, and intuitively felt It seems that they are indeed very similar.

But in this regard, the current situation does not give Michiko Tetsu and Shizuka Hattori more time to think about it——

Seeing that Gao Yuan was about to be beaten at close range by the mysterious samurai holding a short sword because he couldn't draw his katana, and when it looked like he was about to lose, Gao Yuan suddenly took the katana and pressed down hard.

Since the opponent is holding the scabbard to prevent him from unsheathing the sword, similarly, the opponent's hand has already fallen on the other end of the attack range extended by the katana.

And this is actually the two ends of the katana that each controls each other. So in short, exerting force on one end will inevitably be transmitted to the other side.

From this, it seemed that the opponent stopped Gao Yuan from drawing the sword, but at this moment, the opponent directly fell into the range where Gao Yuan could attack, so he pressed the katana down hard, and the katana just followed the opponent's hand. It affected the opponent's movements, causing the slightest flaw in the fierce offensive.

And just taking advantage of this moment, he jumped back, drew the sword at the same time in this way, and pulled out the katana in an instant, so that even if the opponent wanted to repeat the same trick, he planned to use the sheath to put the sword back on the blade again. The means used, it was too late to react at this moment——

And as the long sword was unsheathed, the attack and defense were suddenly different!

At this moment, after seeing that Gao Yuan still pulled out the long sword, the mysterious warrior made a prompt decision and turned around and ran away without stopping at all. It seemed that when he was fighting with the scabbard just now, Gao Yuan had taken advantage of the length of the weapon. Having the upper hand, the weapon's length advantage is still there, and it's also a sharp blade.

This inevitably made the mysterious warrior feel unsure. He knew that it would be difficult to defeat Gao Yuan with the advantage of the short sword alone, so he did not even intend to try. The other party chose to escape——

Of course, this is mainly because Michiko Tetsu and Shizuka Hattori are already nearby. If we continue to fight the mysterious samurai, will it be one versus three?

Even if the other party is two women.

In this way, seeing that the other party actually chose to run away, Gao Yuan naturally did not intend to let the other party go, and chased after him——

It's a pity that the other party chose to jump into the river and leave.

After all, this location is right next to the bridge.

In the dark night, the mysterious warrior jumped into the river, but Gao Yuan couldn't swim, so he had no choice but to give up and call the police...

--hateful……

Isn’t it time for me to learn how to swim when I have time...

In this way, faced with such a situation, Gao Yuan thought in his heart. After a while, Henggou Zhenwu, who had just left, came over with the police officers.

After a brief understanding, he learned that this might be related to an incident that happened in Tokyo yesterday. Hengo Sango also chose to report to the police station. At the same time, the police also investigated the waters here as much as possible, but after all It's dark now, so such an investigation is still a bit difficult.

However, regarding the identity of this mysterious warrior, Gao Yuan was basically certain that the other party should be the one who attacked Tie Zhuyu and the others in Tokyo. Judging from the situation of his fight with the other party today, it seems that the other party's strength should not be much different from his own. There are many, and if you use the items yourself, it shouldn't be a problem to defeat your opponent.

Then the remaining question is to determine why the other party appears in this place——

"Officer Henggou. According to Mrs. Shibata, Mr. Shibata has been called by Mr. Yoshikawa to play mahjong for a big gamble at night, and he didn't come back until very late. So where is Mr. Shibata and his friends playing mahjong?" In this way, Gao Yuan asked Heng Yuan like this. Miu Shenwu asked about it and seemed to have roughly guessed the reason.

And then, the answer given by Henggou Zhenwu convinced Gao Yuan that his idea was correct——

The position guarded by the mysterious warrior at night is the only way Shibata Shiro will pass every night when he goes out to play mahjong. Therefore, the mysterious warrior should know Shibata Shiro's daily whereabouts and come here specifically to block him.

But the mysterious samurai could not have imagined that Shiro Shibata had been killed early this morning. Today's wait was in vain after all...

So, applying this idea to analyze what happened to Tie Zhuyu and the others last night, is it possible that the other party did not actually know the whereabouts of Usami Chiyo and the others that night, but just because that place was the only way for Usami Chiyo to go out, so Where is the other party waiting?

But in this case, the problem is actually a bit strange——

The mysterious samurai Tie Zhuyu and the others met was carrying two samurai swords, but the one he saw only had one...

No, it doesn’t mean he only brought one. The other party clearly had a short knife hidden.

What does this mean?

When facing Usami Chiyo, the opponent handed Usami Chiyo a katana, thus creating a seemingly fair duel environment.

But this time, the opponent should be blocking Shibata Shiro, but he only held a long knife in his hand and hid a short knife. Why?

Just like yesterday, is the other party going to have a duel with Shiro Shibata that is both superior and life-or-death?

In a duel like this, at least the appearance of fairness should be maintained, right?

The weapons are different from those of Shibata Shiro. Is this a fair duel?

Therefore, the purpose of the other party is still a bit unclear, but there is one thing -

If the other party was the same person as yesterday, then the other party would have left three samurai swords at the scene.

Let the police investigate the fingerprints and see if they can determine whether the fingerprints are the same so that they can make a judgment.

As for the original visit to Shibata Shiro, although it was ruined, since Ms. Hattori Shizuka and the other party were members of the same kendo club, I wonder if the other party can provide any clues...

With this in mind, the police carefully searched the situation in the river and found no trace of the other party. So Gao Yuan and others did not stay here too much. After finishing the notes, Gao Yuan and others got on the bus. Michiko Tetsu's car headed towards Tokyo——

"Two aunts, do you think the routine used by that person just now is similar to Mr. Shibata's?"

Facing Michiko Tetsumi and Shizuka Hattori, Gao Yuan thought about it and asked about it.

In this regard, Michiko Tetsumi did not express her views directly, but Shizuka Hattori thought for a moment with a slightly solemn expression, and then said:

"It's very similar...and if you are concerned about the moves and routines used by that person, maybe I can find someone to ask!"
