23. The Sheriff's Wrath!

"Let me see, calendula! It's here too? It's air-dried... Bought it!"

On the streets of Zhishui City, Matou Shinji was shopping for his daily necessities, and at the same time adding some herbs and medicines, which is convenient in big cities, and there are shops selling everything.

Haruda Yukino followed behind Matou Shinji with a small bag. At this time, she had changed out of the white yukata, put on ordinary trousers and leather shoes, and was wearing a beige women's top. .

Although the clothes are very ordinary, but with the good looks of Haruta Yukino, this dress has a different charm.

She obediently followed behind Matou Shinji, relying on her familiarity with Zhishui City, allowing Matou Shinji to avoid some unnecessary troubles and quickly buy what she wanted.

After walking around all morning, before the two came to a slightly dilapidated courtyard, Matou Shinji took out the key to open the door, and the two walked in with the things they bought.

The courtyard is not big, but it can give Matou Shinji plenty of personal space. This is the courtyard he rented for nearly twenty yen.

I heard that this place used to be the residence of a businessman, but the businessman took his family to the bigger city Tokyo for better development. The house here was idle, and he began to rent it out.

After putting the things on the ground, Matou Shinji picked out some herbs and medical supplies. As for the ordinary daily necessities, Haruta Yukino naturally handled them. The reason why she can stay here is not because Matou Shinji needs an assistant and a dry hand. miscellaneous.

Who will work if she doesn't work?

After Matou Shinji sorted things out, he picked up the newspaper he bought and read all kinds of news. Instead of reading it in detail, he was looking for something quickly, and finally found a small tofu in a corner. yuan.

This is an advertisement that Matou Shinji published in the newspaper. If it is said that because of the scarcity of doctors in that small town, he is naturally authoritative and respected by others. Without deliberate publicity, ordinary people will spontaneously spread the word about a doctor. incoming news.

But it's different in Zhishui City, who knows who you are! There is no shortage of quack doctors here, and there is not much communication between people. Many workers work in the factory for a day, and they are exhausted. Where can they think of communicating with each other.

As for the high-level businessmen and dignitaries, they all have their own personal doctors. They neither know nor believe in a foreign doctor like Matou Shinji, so the first thing Matou Shinji did when he came to this place was to publish a newspaper and call him. an advertisement.

By the way, I put a sign on the door of my yard to let others know that there is a doctor living here.

I'm quite satisfied with the advertisement Matou Shinji, anyway, it's just two shots with dates and no dates. It's better to have customers, and the money will be much more comfortable. It's okay to have no customers.

"Ok?"

Next to his advertisement for tofu nuggets, there was a large-scale report. Matou Shinji started to watch it. It seemed that the daughter of a local businessman had disappeared. At the same time, in order to show his efforts, he published a large report.

"It's a familiar sense of sight... So many years ago, these police officers were proficient in the secret technique of 'I work very hard, so even if things go wrong, it's forgivable'!"

Matou Shinji laughed, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth mercilessly. As for the missing girl, he didn't think of anything.

Not to mention this era, even in his era, many people disappear inexplicably every day. This is a normal thing.

Matou Shinji glanced at the newspaper in his hand. The rest were either advertisements or some company opening celebration information. There was very little really useful information.

"Well..."

Stretching, Matou Shinji put the newspaper in his hand on the table. There is something to do tonight, and a lot of potions need to be prepared. At the same time, he wants to see if Haruta Yukino can also serve as his assistant, otherwise he will do everything by himself. It's too much trouble.

...

Whoa-!

A delicate chinaware was slammed to the ground, and a man in his fifties was very angry, wearing a police uniform.

"It's been two days! There's no clue at all, are you all eating idle meals?"

The man was very angry. After all, it was not as simple as the disappearance of one or two people. It was more than a dozen noble and beautiful girls who all disappeared together. The families behind them put a lot of pressure on the police station. , his future promotion path is directly yellow!

"No, no, we have found some clues, but... we can't do it!"

In front of the man, there was a bunch of police officers standing with their heads bowed. One of the police officers raised his head and said a little aggrieved.

"I can't do it! Is your search warrant for viewing?!"

The sound echoed in the room, and even the police officers gathered in the corridor outside could hear some of it. Recently, it can be said that the police department is fully committed to this case.

"Ugh..."

A girl in a police uniform in the corridor couldn't help crying. Among the missing girls was her friend, but because her status was not noble enough, she didn't even get any attention in the police station. Everyone paid attention to it. On the daughters of dignitaries.

"Give way..."

A young man squeezed in from behind and came to the female police officer to comfort her and said, "It's okay, we should be able to investigate soon, we will find your friend..."

"I don't believe this at all!"

The female police officer whispered, outsiders don't know, she doesn't know as a police officer? What is the routine of Zhishui City Police Department? It will not be traced now, and no one will look through the files to trace it in the future.

The young man sighed, then walked towards the Sheriff's Office. He heard the Sheriff's roar from a distance. He swallowed and pushed the door into it.

And the inspector general, who was berating his subordinates for being weak, saw him, stopped his roar, and began to gasp for breath. After all, he was almost fifty years old, and his physical strength was not as good as when he was young.

"how?"

"Sergeant... we... found..."

The young man swallowed and finally said bravely, "The person who provided the clue is missing."

"call..."

Hearing this bad news, the chief inspector sat tremblingly behind his desk, took off his glasses with trembling hands, looked at the thick documents on the table, and said, "Leave the police above, the others are the same as this. Anyone who has nothing to do with it, go out."

People from the office poured out here, who would want to be reprimanded by the boss in this place.

"I gave you an order, an order that cannot be questioned! None of you obeyed!"

The angry police chief is very excited. His future depends on how well this incident is handled. If it goes well, his future will be bright, but if it doesn't go well...

"But, but the clues point to those guys, those dignitaries who yearn for a long life..."

The young man said nervously, and at the same time lowered his voice, his face clearly showing the color of taboo.

"That's why you took the search warrants and were turned away!! You are all people in police uniforms, government personnel who maintain order for His Majesty, you came back like this, it's a disgrace to the police station. ——! I'm so pissed off!!"

The chief inspector was about to explode at this time, but he still maintained his last sense of reason, and did not directly call out the names of the group of people, otherwise once the police officers outside without knowledge of the inside heard it, it would not only be troublesome , but how to commit suicide more neatly.

"But, but if we forcefully break in, then the dead will be us, and there will be a big mess! The police chief! Those, those monsters won't show mercy to us just because we are police!"

"You cowards, idiots, worthless rubbish, assholes of the Empire!! A disgrace to the police..."

The Chief Inspector roared angrily, but after a few roars, he finally sighed and slumped on the chair. Of course he knew who those people were, those dignitaries who longed for immortality and served cannibals. The eternal life of the monster.
