Chaoguang

Chapter 106 Coffee
Sanada Ling has maintained a movement since the video started playing, and her eyes have not moved a bit.

The expression on her face was very flat, almost non-existent. She would neither be filled with righteous indignation and curse like them, nor would she empathize with them and sob and choke.

As soon as Muroi Kazawa said the first sentence, she could guess what was going to happen next, assault/violence or violence.

She just felt a little pathetic, as if no matter which city or country she was in, there would always be some unknown things happening behind the scenes, and we could neither stop them nor prevent them from happening.

Her fingertips pressed hard on her temples, her eyes were knocked down, and she had to go outside to catch her breath.

Sanada Ling stood outside the door, looking at the bare tree branches in the yard, and searched all the pockets on her body, but found nothing.

Hey, I knew I should have put a pack of cigarettes in my pocket before I came here, but now I don't have anything.

Hattori Heiji came from behind, "What are you looking for?"

Sanada Ling looked up at him, then looked away, "Looking for cigarettes."

Hattori Heiji looked at her with a frown, and took out a candy from his pocket, which was given to him by Kazuha last time, and handed it over, "I don't have any cigarettes, let's eat this for now."

Sanada Ling stared at the candy in his hand for a while, reached out to take it, tore off the candy wrapper, and threw it into his mouth. It was okay, and said plum sugar, "Thank you."

Hattori Heiji stood side by side with her, "Why did you come out?"

Sanada Ling: "What about you, why did you come out?"

Why?Hattori Heiji squinted at the sky, the room was too stuffy.

"If there is no accident, the police will arrest people immediately. Do you have any ideas?"

idea?Candy twirled around in his mouth, and Sanada Ling said, "Don't worry about arresting him yet, his evidence has already been established, don't worry about him running away, I have some questions to ask his wife."

"You want to ask about Muroi Azalea."

"Well," Sanada Ling nodded, "I thought she might know something before, but now I'm sure she must know, it depends on whether she says it or not."

"When are you going to go?"

Sanada Ling narrowed her eyes slightly, "That's it. At the time of the police investigation, Mrs. Muroi was a typical housewife. She had almost no personal entertainment. She would go to the supermarket to buy vegetables for dinner every day. The town is only so big, and there are many places you can go. Just those few, I'll go and have a look."

Hattori Heiji: "Okay, you can go, I will stay at the police station and investigate all the school personnel on the night of Muroi Kazakh's death, and call me if you have any questions."

Sanada Ling looked at the time and stopped by the roadside to eat a bowl of ramen before continuing down the street.

"500 yen, ma'am, 500 yen, ma'am!"

Mrs. Muroi suddenly recovered from her daze, and smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I didn't hear clearly, how much are these in total?"

The vendor who bought vegetables, "500, it's 500 yen in total, I have called it several times, ma'am."

Mrs. Muroi took out money from her purse and handed it to her, "I'm really sorry."

While looking for money, the peddler looked up at her, "Seeing that you are not from a poor family, you can take a break once in a while."

Mrs. Muroi just smiled and didn't speak, how dare she mention rest.

When he turned around and was about to leave, his body froze suddenly, and the hand holding the handbag was involuntarily clenched.

The peddler asked suspiciously, "Madam, do you have anything else to do?"

Mrs. Muroi ignored the vegetable peddler's question, and pulled the corner of her mouth lightly, showing a stiff smile, which was regarded as a greeting, and she was about to leave in another direction.

Sanada Ling took a step forward calmly, "Mrs. Muroi, what a coincidence, we meet again?"

Mrs. Muroi had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer. She always felt that the little girl's expression was strange, "ah, what a coincidence, are you here to buy vegetables too?"

Sanada Ling shook her head, "No, I came here specially to find you."

"Mrs. Muroi, if you don't mind, sit down and have a chat."

"Sorry, I have something to do at home. I can't chat with you. You have been to my house several times. You must know everything you need to know. There is nothing to talk about. I have to go back. Goodbye."

Sanada Ling didn't reach out to pull her, but said when she just took the first step, "Would you like to guess what I found in Muroi Azalea's room, and what the sticker on her bed covered up?"

Mrs. Muroi's face turned pale in an instant, and she opened and closed her lips several times before she managed to make a sound, "You, what do you mean? I...I don't understand what you said?"

Sanadaling rubbed her fingers together, "I was sorry before, I touched your wound, sorry."

Mrs. Muroi's cold sweat dripped down her temples. She was holding the handbag tightly with both hands, and the veins on the back of her hands were bulging. She knew it. This little girl knew the truth she tried so hard to hide.

Mrs. Muroi swallowed hard, her voice dry, "What do you want to talk about?"

Sanada Ling put her hand back into her pocket, "There is a coffee shop on the corner of the street, I just happened to be thirsty."

After saying this, she turned and walked towards the coffee shop, she wasn't worried whether people would follow her.

Mrs. Muroi looked at the girl who turned around without hesitation, gritted her teeth and followed her up.

There are no new styles in the town, and they are all the most basic, "A glass of American style, what do you want to drink?"

"Just like you."

Sanada Ling handed the list to the waiter, "Two glasses of American style."

"OK, just a second."

Mrs. Muroi looked at the person who was looking at the scenery by herself, her lips were tightly pursed, "You asked me to come here specially, what did you want to talk about, and what did you find?"

Sanada Ling stared at the woman's face, and suddenly chuckled, "What do you want to talk about? What did you find? You know these things the best, don't you?"

Mrs. Muroi: "I don't know what nonsense you're talking about."

"It's been a while, it won't be interesting for you to say these things again."

Waiter: "Hello, please take your time with your two American glasses."

"Thank you."

Sanada Ling took a sip from the cup, it was a little hot, but it was okay, it could be drunk.

Mrs. Muroi looked at the white mist slowly rising from the cup in front of her, as if she was suddenly discouraged, she covered her face with her hands for a long time, and finally put it down.

"I can answer your question, but you have to answer one of my questions before I can tell you what you want to know."

"Well, you said."

Mrs. Muroi raised her head and looked straight into her eyes, which were dark and deep, with no end in sight, "What did you find in Juan's room?"

"A memory card."

Mrs. Muroi was slightly stunned, "What?"

"There is only one video in it, which was secretly shot by a mobile phone. It was located in her room, and the surveillance camera was facing the door. The time was midnight. More specifically, it was after your husband came back drunk from a party at night."

"As for what was photographed, I think you know better than me."

Mrs. Muroi's face was paler than those who were seriously ill. She wanted to drink some water to calm down, but found that she didn't even have the strength to pick up the coffee cup. The warm coffee was spilled on the back of her hand, and she frantically tried to wipe it off with a paper towel. , can only make myself more embarrassed.

A white tablecloth rested lightly in her palm, sucking up the coffee that had been dumped on the table.

"Yeah, sorry, I didn't mean to, I just, just..."

just what?Mrs. Muroi seemed to be stuck suddenly, unable to utter a word.

Sanada Ling straightened the coffee cup and moved it away, "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, you can take your time."

Mrs. Muroi tried to take a deep breath to calm her emotions. She didn't want to be a person in her 40s, and she had to lose face in front of a child. It was too embarrassing.

Even though she knew well, she no longer had any dignity to speak of.

After a long time, Mrs. Muroi slowed down, "Whatever you want to ask, just ask, and I will tell you anything I know."

Sanada Ling saw that she had almost recovered, and asked, "At the beginning, when you adopted Muroi Azalea, you objected and strongly refused because you couldn't take care of two children at the same time. Although the result didn't change in the end, I want to ask, What is your reason for refusing?"

Mrs. Muroi lowered her eyes, "Is there any other reason, don't you know it all?"

"The child Juan was only in her teens when the accident happened at home. I can't just watch her jump into the fire pit."

She can't get out anymore, and she can't let a young child go in with her.

"But my opinion is useless. I have no blood relationship with Juan, and the court didn't listen to my explanation. They thought I was making trouble for no reason. They are my uncles and nephews. I have no choice but to let it go. "

Sanadaling tapped twice on the desktop with her fingertips, "On the night of the incident, why did Azalea Muroi leave home in the middle of the night to go to school?"

Mrs. Muroi shook her head, "No, Juan didn't leave in the middle of the night, she didn't come back at night."

"What I'm talking about is that because there are too many lessons left behind, the teacher made up the lessons alone, and by the way, I ate at the teacher's house."

"My husband, he, he just had a party that night, so he must be drinking. He will be more violent when he is drunk. I thought it would be okay to stay at the teacher's house for one night. I never thought that Juan would have an accident at school. .”

Sanada Ling: "Do you know if the teacher is male or female?"

Mrs. Muroi was stunned, "I don't know, it was Juan who called me directly. I heard her voice was normal, and I also vaguely heard the voices of other girls on the phone, so I, I agreed."

At this moment, Sanada Ling didn't know whether to say she was too naive or too stupid.

I don't know if the other party is a man or a woman, what is the background, I can let a teenage child spend the night outside, it is lucky that nothing happens, but now I don't even have that one-ten-thousandth luck, I just fell to my death.

Sanada Ling picked up the coffee and took a sip, "She is not popular at school, has no friends, and the teacher doesn't like to see her. If someone suddenly asks for extra lessons and she is willing, then they must be familiar with her. Did Muroi Azalea tell you at home? However, or inadvertently mentioned it during chatting, you should think about it.”

Although the girl's expression hasn't changed since she sat down, Mrs. Muroi still felt the displeasure at that moment.

She also understands that she has made a big mistake. If she had asked too much at that time, kept an eye out, or sternly refused, would the tragedy not have happened? Now, the police are constantly investigating and asking, and she also knows that Juan It wasn't suicide, she was killed by someone and disguised as suicide.

If she had stopped her at that time, would it not have happened, even if she was beaten up, she would still be alive.
