Chapter 335

Could it be a bitter-meat scheme?

Wanting to record a video of her begging bitterly and being rejected by him.

Hearing her keep talking about Heiji, Akaso Kaze suddenly thought, could this woman be slandering him by saying he locked Heiji up?

This is too ridiculous.

Before Akaso Kaze could speak, Hattori Shizuka had already taken off her kimono, revealing her fair and clean body.

Her skin was extremely fair, emitting an ivory-like luster under the lights.

It made Akaso Kaze feel a bit dizzy.

Hattori Shizuka lay down silently, putting on a posture of "at your disposal."

It actually gave Akaso Kaze a fright.

This, the price is too high, isn't it?

Making such a huge sacrifice just to slander me?

"Lord Akaso, as long as you let my family go, you can do anything to me."

Hattori Shizuka had tears in her eyes.

Akaso Kaze hesitated for a while and dropped the wooden sword.

"You misunderstood. Although you did those boring things, they don't mean much to me, so there's no such thing as letting you go or not."

He turned and left.

Leaving behind Hattori Shizuka, who was bewildered in her heart.

"He, what does this mean? No such thing as letting go or not..."

Hattori Shizuka lay on the ground for a while, then suddenly got up.

"He, does he really still not want to let us go?"

She dropped her clothes and chased after him, just like that, naked.

Akaso Kaze stood in the locker room, sighing as he took off his kendo uniform.

What kind of mess is this?

This woman seems to have misunderstood something.

I'll ask clearly later...

The door suddenly opened, and the lights went out.

A body hugged him from behind.

A soft sensation instantly transmitted to his back.

"Lord Akaso, punish me severely; I will definitely be able to make you vent your anger."

Akaso Kaze stood there for a long time and finally let out a breath.

This situation, I can't endure it anymore.

If it's unbearable, then there's no need to endure it.

He turned around, grabbed the woman, and spanked her little bottom.

Ring-a-ding.

Hattori Heizo’s phone rang.

He looked at the display and answered it.

"Hello, Shizuka, has Lord Akaso been delivered? What? He told you who the murderer is... Okay, I'll do as he says."

Putting down the phone, Hattori Heizo was in high spirits and immediately directed the police to start arresting the criminals.

However, deep in his heart, there was a question he dared not think about, nor did he want to think about.

Shizuka, how exactly did she get Lord Akaso’s approval?

In the dark room, Hattori Shizuka hung up the phone and threw it aside.

She lay powerlessly on Akaso Kaze’s chest.

She said faintly: "So, it was all my misunderstanding?"

"Yeah." Akaso Kaze curled his lips; anyway, he had already taken all the advantages, and now it was time to reveal the truth.

He told her where Hattori Heiji was.

"You should hurry to the school to find him, otherwise I'm afraid you'll have to wait until the next school opening day for him to come out."

Hattori Shizuka’s fingers drew circles on Akaso Kaze’s chest, and she shook her head silently.

"No rush, anyway, that kid won't die from being hungry for a day."

In the darkness, her eyes were shining.

"You are the strongest Onmyoji in Tokyo, with unfathomable thoughts. How do I know if what you said is true or false?"

Hattori Shizuka slowly leaned over, her lotus-root-like arms wrapping around Akaso Kaze’s neck.

"I want to seriously and repeatedly confirm your intentions; how can once or twice be enough?"

Huh?

Akaso Kaze looked down.

Red lips were right in front of him.

Has this woman unlocked some incredible trait?

Wasn't she originally a virtuous wife and mother wearing a kimono?

Inside an abandoned factory, it was pitch black, with only the 3rd-floor scaffolding having faint firelight.

Old man Kasuya used a lighter to climb to the 3rd floor and immediately saw Wakizaka standing next to a bucket that was being lit, his eyes narrowed.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Wakizaka."

"No."

Wakizaka scratched the back of his head and pointed to a section of the scaffolding extending into the air.

"The thing is right there, in that box."

"I see."

Old man Kasuya walked to the box Wakizaka mentioned and found the light was dim; relying solely on a lighter, he couldn't tell what was what in the pile of things, and there was a flashlight next to it.

"Just use that flashlight for lighting," Wakizaka added with his eyes narrowed, "It's easy to find the Tiger Scroll you want."

"Don't turn on the switch!"

Hattori Heizo walked onto the scaffolding and reminded him with a light laugh.

"If you turn on the flashlight, you will definitely be burned black all over, just like Mr. Kato who caught fire on the roof of the Osaka Castle Main Keep. Am I right, Mr. Wakizaka?"

Kasuya and Wakizaka turned their heads together to look at Hattori Heizo, who had appeared.

"Could it be that Mr. Kato was..." Kasuya asked in surprise.

"That's right," Hattori Heizo looked directly at the silent Wakizaka.

"The murderer who killed Mr. Kato and Miss Katagiri one after another is Mr. Wakizaka. Thanks to Lord Onmyoji, we were able to solve the truth of the incident..."

Hattori Heizo threw out a photo.

"Mr. Wakizaka, you should know everyone in this photo, right? We have already checked Mr. Hirano’s website. The logs that were originally updated daily on the website stopped updating three weeks ago, which was exactly when the charred corpse was found a while back."

Wakizaka glanced at the photo without refuting.

"Yes, Mr. Hirano, Mr. Kato, and Miss Katagiri were all killed by me. This is also to comfort the spirit of my grandfather, Masakiyo, who died for his love of Hideyoshi."

"The grandfather you mentioned, is he the old gentleman holding the scroll in the middle?" Hattori Heizo asked.

"That's right. My grandfather often mentioned some things to me, which were about the secret of Hideyoshi’s treasure recorded on the scroll."

"At that time, my grandfather said he didn't want to continue treasure hunting and wanted to donate the scroll to the government, but his companions didn't agree. Thirteen years ago, my grandfather went to Osaka to meet his companions because of this, and he never returned."

Wakizaka lowered his head.

"Grandfather only left behind the fragments, the Tiger Scroll, and the photo. He didn't tell me the whereabouts of those companions. It's not easy to find people, and one of them actually changed his appearance. That person is..."

"Yes," Kasuya suddenly took out a pistol and pointed it at Hattori Heizo, saying coldly:

"I am the last person in the photo. I had plastic surgery after that incident. As for the reason, it seems you all know very well..."

Hattori Heizo frowned slightly and asked: "So, you were also the one who committed several robberies and murders thirteen years ago?"

"I had no choice," Kasuya said expressionlessly.

"For Hideyoshi’s treasure, I had already spent all my savings and had no way out. Alright, you guys go over and turn on the flashlight, and end it yourselves!"

Hattori Heizo didn't move: "Those guys outside are the people you prepared to transfer the treasure, right?"
