Huiyu fell seriously ill late at night on the third day of the Golden Week holiday.
Late at night on the third day, he and Enju met at the hospital and went to the headquarters of the Ushiromiya Group. On the way, Katsuto defeated the Sumaji family's bodyguards with his bare hands and negotiated with Kokonoki.
On the fourth day, they went back and forth to Osaka, returned to Tokyo at night, and stayed in a luxury hotel for one night.
By the way, Popipa's group should have arrived in Osaka on that day? We didn't meet each other.
On the fifth day, they arrived at the new island.
After visiting the descendants of the two parties who now live in Niijima, we learned that they received an envelope containing the key to the bank vault.
Inside the vault, there were stacks of banknotes, totaling 10 billion yen.
Yuanshou recalled that he had also received something like this when he was six years old.
Too bad she lost it.
This makes people even more confused.
...In fact, it is enough to start some thinking.
Everything that happened on Rokukenjima during those two days was premeditated.
The development may not have gone as expected, but the result may have been anticipated.
The other party must have prepared so much cash a long time in advance, deposited it in the bank, and sent the keys to their respective people.
Could the conspirator be Kinzo himself?
Did he blow up everyone including himself and leave Huiyu alone to survive?
No, it's impossible no matter how you think about it.
But there is no doubt that this amount of cash can only be taken out by someone who can use all of Ushiromiya's inheritance.
Everything becomes even more confusing.
At the end of the day, they visited a hotel on the island.
The owner of this hotel is named Sanjiao.
The boss's father was the captain of the liaison ship to Rokkenjima.
In the past, he had been a great man of the sea, but after a serious illness ruined his health, he retired and lived with his son and his wife, being taken care of by them...
"I remember it very clearly! At that time, you were only this old, Xiao Yuanshou. Now that you have grown up... I'm sure it must be very hard for you. I understand how you feel..."
Captain Triangle is so energetic that people can't understand why he retired.
The memory seems very vivid. I still remember what happened more than ten years ago. Even the fate of that time is still in my memory.
Should we say it is lucky or unfortunate?
Although Yuanshou was only six years old when the accident happened, she would go to Rokukenjima every year to attend family gatherings before that.
However, she fell ill that year.
She didn't attend the family gathering that year.
So, she survived till now.
"But I haven't seen this young man before..."
Captain Mikado turned his gaze towards Katsuto.
"Boy friend?"
"No... I am the curse left behind by that old man when he was seventy years old. I just met Yuanshou recently."
“Ahahahaha, as expected of Mr. Kinzo…”
Sure enough, this topic can be awkward.
"Then, could you please help me sail the boat out to sea?"
Let’s get back to the topic.
Just like then, there is no official means of transportation to Rokkenjima.
To go out to Rokkenjima, one must rely on someone who owns a boat.
The ship that goes to Rokkenjima has not been found yet.
If he refused, then it might be completely hopeless.
"Yes, no problem. The boat has been borrowed, but it will be back before noon tomorrow."
The former captain promised to return to his previous post tomorrow and sail out to Rokukenjima.
So, it was the afternoon of the sixth day of the Golden Week holiday.
They reached the end of their tracing journey.
Katsuto, dressed in a suit, stood on the deck with his arms outstretched, welcoming the dazzling sun and the strong sea breeze.
A few seabirds were perched on the railing a little further away, waiting for something.
"Are you going to say the famous line from Titanic?"
Yuanshou's cold and sarcastic voice sounded behind my head.
"This kind of ship doesn't give people that feeling."
Katsuto shrugged.
"But thanks to this captain for being willing to help."
"Yes. I've heard that boats are hard to find, so this is a great help."
…Although not as serious as Enju, for Captain Sankaku, the incident twelve years ago is still a thorn that has not been removed.
He also wanted to make a break with the past by sending the last member of the Ushiromiya family to the island and then bringing him back safely.
For this, even their monetary rewards were rejected.
"Oh, the captain is a very good man."
At this time, Amakusa Jusan came out of the cabin and said so and came to them.
Coincidentally, Katsuto was also heading towards Amakusa.
At the moment when the two of them crossed paths——
"?"
"!"
The situation suddenly changed.
While Enju was confused and Amakusa was astonished, Katsuto suddenly attacked and captured Amakusa Jusan.
He grabbed his wrists and completely subdued him, pressing his chest hard against the iron railing on the side of the boat.
The seabirds resting on the railing were startled and flew away by the violent vibration.
"...Hey, hey, hey, young master, what are you doing?"
"Yuju, go to the cabin and find a guitar bag. Amakusa must have brought it up with him. Open it and see what's inside."
"……I see."
Although he didn't quite understand Shengren's meaning, Yuanshou chose to believe it.
"..."
"I'm sorry, I didn't trust you from the beginning, Amakusa."
After Enju disappeared, Katsuto said this to the man he subdued.
"That's a shame...can I ask why?"
Even after being captured, Amakusa Jusan still spoke in a frivolous tone.
"After all, you were hired by Mr. Kokoroki."
Kokonoki had reasons to kill Katsuto.
He can indeed be said to be a loyalist of Eiwa and Ushiromiya, and has made great contributions to the group.
However, for some reasons that he himself could not explain, Katsutomo did not trust Okonomiki Tetsuro.
When he gradually takes control of the company, he will definitely replace Xiao Cimu.
So, Xiao Ci Mu had a motive.
"Of course, what made me alert was that not long after Enju and I left the hospital, we ran into Sumaji."
Not only do we know when they came to the hospital, but we also know where they are going next.
To be able to block someone so accurately, it is natural to assume that someone tipped off the group and that this person has a certain status within the group.
It was no big secret that Huiyu was seriously ill and hospitalized. Suma Temple probably had found out about it before and was planning to seize the property through Enju.
Then, he bribed Xiao Cimu.
Kokonomi is loyal only to Eha.
As long as the next master can give him enough benefits, he can certainly sell the two minors.
Shengren didn't say this that night.
We can't fall out right after Huiyu dies.
"Then, I tested you."
"When?"
Amakusa was totally unaware.
"I asked you if you played guitar, and you said that I was tired of slapping on the lead guitar in Live."
"what……"
"But slap is a technique commonly used by bass guitar."
This is not rigorous.
Although there is a string-striking technique in electric guitar, it is not as commonly used as in bass.
The inventor of this technique, the young bassist Larry Graham at the time, started using his right thumb to strike the strings to compensate for the bass drum's problems after his drummer left.
In other words, Slap is used to highlight the rhythm.
And Shengren said that he was the lead guitarist.
"You could have just said you put a gun in your guitar bag."
As a bodyguard, there is nothing wrong with carrying a gun to protect them.
"But you think I'm easy to fool... No, it's your own character problem."
Amakusa Jusan is extremely casual.
Since Shengren "misunderstood" that he played guitar, he might as well just go along with it -
He thought so.
Then, the flaw was revealed.
At this time, Yuanshou returned to the deck——
His face was heavy.
"There is a latest model sniper rifle in it."
This is a bodyguard who needs to travel light and follow you at all times. Does he need to prepare guns in advance?
"There's another one, a Tokarev pistol. A Soviet military pistol, the only old model."
A popular item that was widely circulated in the Japanese underground.
It is quite suitable as a weapon prepared by the Suma Temple family.
