Chapter 781: Chapter 470: The Mysteriously Off-Track Policeman and the Very Silly Kanda_2

The middle-aged woman smiled and took the iron shovel from Asada Kasai, saying:

"Let me do it. We’ll handle this farm work. You’re a police officer, just watch."

And then she started digging.

Not even half a meter down, the iron shovel hit something hard.

The woman lifted the shovel, and Asada Kasai looked over to see that it was a bone!

Human bone!

"What’s buried under here..." The middle-aged woman was also surprised, "What is it?"

Actually, by this time she had already smelled a foul odor, but she hadn’t thought it was human bones.

Asada Kasai had already taken out her mobile phone and called Ooyama Yousuke:

"Ooyama-senpai, I found human bones buried in the vegetable field behind the Tanaka family’s ancestral temple. I don’t know how many yet, but I need backup here!"

Ooyama Yousuke was originally still questioning people. Hearing Asada Kasai’s words, he was shocked and immediately said:

"Wait for me there, take care of yourself, I’ll bring people over right away!"

Although he said right away, it was already noon by the time Ooyama Yousuke arrived.

By this time, Asada Kasai and the middle-aged woman had dug up two sets of human bones.

"These are a man and a woman, buried about two or three months ago."

Asada Kasai said, but at this moment a young man in a suit who had come with Ooyama Yousuke examined the site and said:

"To be precise, it should have been three months ago. Indeed, a man and a woman, and they were buried alive."

"Who could be so cruel!" This was live burial!

The middle-aged woman’s face had already turned pale.

She had obviously guessed the answer - who else could it be but Master Floyd?

Ooyama Yousuke brought a team of police officers this time, and they immediately began searching the temple.

The two locked side palaces were opened, but seeing the empty shelves inside, Asada Kasai and Ooyama Yousuke looked dismayed.

"I originally thought Master Floyd might have been victimized. But now it seems our guesses may have been off." Ooyama Yousuke said, "Judging from the traces, the things inside had just been taken."

His meaning was clear, Master Floyd’s actions were likely discovered, so he hastily took the things and left.

As for that Vicky Wilson, she was very likely a victim after the man and woman found!

As for the two young people from China, it is unclear what role they played in this case, whether they were bystanders or participants.

However, considering that they had returned to Kumamoto County after rescuing people in the small town and even stayed there overnight, it seemed unlikely they were the culprits.

"There was no blood or signs of struggle in Miss Meiko’s car, so it is very likely that it was taken normally and naturally driven away." Ooyama Yousuke added.

Now the two of them had unconsciously shifted the focus of their investigation to finding Master Floyd.

"Let’s ask around the village first." Ooyama Yousuke said, "Master Floyd must be very familiar with the people in the village, and if he wanted to leave the village, it would be difficult to escape the eyes of the villagers."

He glanced at the middle-aged woman not far away who still looked shocked and helpless:

"Unless the villagers are covering for him!"

As the police were questioning and searching the temple and village, two cars drove up to the entrance of the temple.

Seeing the temple doors wide open and the police cars in front, the bespectacled man was confused and hesitated. But as Asada Kasai came out of the temple and spotted him right away, she immediately asked:

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"I...I am a relative of the Tanaka family. There are no other people left in the Tanaka family, only me as a close relative. I came to ask Master Floyd for the things left in the family temple by the Tanaka family..."

Facing the police, the bespectacled man didn’t dare to lie, and what he said was not a lie.

"You know there are things from the Tanaka family hidden in this temple? What are they?"

"I don’t know the specifics..." The bespectacled man muttered bitterly in his heart, knowing that he wouldn’t have gotten involved if he had known it would lead to trouble with the police!

But since the police had asked, he didn’t dare not to answer:

"I only heard from my sister that there were some cultural relics brought back from China by the Tanaka family’s head many years ago."

As he said this, Asada Kasai immediately became even more convinced of her previous suspicions, and she pressed him further:

"Did Master Floyd know about these things too?"

"Yes, of course he knew!" The bespectacled man sensed something off in the way Asada Kasai asked about Master Floyd and was certain something was up, so he confirmed:

"Some of these things were medical books and qigong books, which Master Floyd often studied. He’s over seventy years old and still very powerful, able to take on four or five twenty-year-olds!"

"Is Master Floyd really that powerful?" Asada Kasai was somewhat incredulous.

"It’s true! It’s absolutely true! Everyone in the village knows!" The bespectacled man was nearly swearing it.

Asada Kasai felt that she might have found the truth!

Naturally, Sean Knight and Elijah Hastings were unaware that during the pursuit, the police’s direction of investigation had changed due to Master Floyd’s actions, which had unexpectedly cleared the main suspicion from them.

By the time they reached the small town instructed by Douglas Cooper, it was already noon.

This small town was more prosperous than the one where Monica Reed had been, with more people and even many foreign tourists.
