Chapter 610 The Secret Behind the Mummy

Chapter 610 The Secret Behind the Mummy

Came to Dou Reiji's home.

Dou Reiji was worried about his daughter's disappearance. When he heard Yuya and the other two say they wanted to see the mummy, he agreed without thinking about anything else and asked the housekeeper to take the three of them to the basement.

In the basement, there was a coffin of the same style as the previous two. After it was opened, a mummy without the lower body appeared.

At this point, they had all looked at the mummies in the four strange houses, and just as Feng Jichun had said, each one was missing a part.

On the way back, Miyano Shiho asked in confusion: "Why is each mummy missing a part? If one or two of them were missing, it might be because they were not well preserved, but it would be too strange if all of them were missing."

Yuya nodded slightly: "That's right, and they are not mummies handed down from ancient times at all. They are simply charred corpses that have been specially treated to make them look like mummies."

"What? A charred corpse?" Makino Hiiragi's eyes widened. "What on earth is going on? Why do they keep a charred corpse in their home as a guardian angel?"

Youya shook his head to indicate that he didn't know, and Kazematsu Jun refused to say. What about the remaining three people? No, the three Fuyuki brothers had been killed, and only two people were left.

Those two people probably wouldn't tell them the secret.

Youye spread his hands and said, "Well, since we can't get the answer from you, forget it. We'll know when the autopsy results from Officer Yamamura come out."

···After dinner, Yuya, Miyano Shiho, and Makino Hiiragi went outside for a walk.

The three of them walked and talked, and before they knew it, they arrived at the woods near the village.

Makino Hiiragi suddenly called out in a low voice: "Hey, look over there."

Yuya looked up and saw a familiar figure wearing a hood.

"Tokita Jusan? What is he doing here so late at night?" Yuya's face flashed with suspicion, and he whispered, "Let's follow him secretly."

Four people, one in front and three behind, shuttled through the woods.

After passing a barbed wire fence with a "No Entry" sign, several small wooden houses appeared in front of them.

Fearing that they would be discovered, Yuya and the other two dared only to hide behind a tree and observe from a distance, watching Tokita Jusan enter one of the wooden houses.

"Splash, splash~" The sound of water pouring can be faintly heard inside.

"This old man comes here to take a shower so late at night?" Makino Hiiragi said jokingly.

"No," Youye frowned slightly, "I'm afraid this sound is..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Tokita Jusan coming out with two gasoline barrels and entering the wooden house next door.

"Gasoline barrels? He... wants to burn down these wooden houses?" Youya shouted in a low voice, "Something is wrong, stop him!"

"Mio, call Officer Yamamura and ask him to bring some people over!"

Yuya and Makino Hiiragi rushed over, while Miyano Shiho stayed where she was and called the police.

There was a flash of fire, and Tokita Jusan walked out of the wooden house holding a torch.

He stood blankly at the door of the cabin, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Stop!" Makino Hiiragi shouted.

Yuya secretly thought that was bad.

When Tokita Jusan heard the shouting, he turned around and saw Yuya and Makino Hiiragi running towards him. He let out a strange cry and threw the torch into the nearest wooden house.

"Boom!" The gasoline was ignited instantly. No one knew how much gasoline Tokita Shisan poured in it. In just a few breaths, the entire wooden house was engulfed, and the blazing flames shot up into the sky.

He wanted to repeat the same trick and set fire to other wooden houses, but Youya pounced on him and pinned him to the ground.

"Let me go! What are you doing!" Tokita Jusan struggled hard, but how could he be a match for Yuya? He was pinned to the ground and unable to move.

Youye looked up and saw that they didn't arrive too late. There was a certain distance between the wooden houses and there was no wind at this location, so it would not affect other wooden houses and the woods.

After being pinned down, Tokita Jusan became obedient, and his pair of eyes, dyed red by the fire, stared at Yuya from under his hood.

Yuya asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Tokita, why did you burn down these wooden houses?"

Shi Tian Shisan sneered: "These wooden houses are my property. It is my freedom to do what I want with them. Why do you control me?"

Youye smiled faintly: "Of course I can't control it, but you sneaked over to set fire to the house at night when no one was around. This behavior is a bit too suspicious. Can you explain it?"

Of course, Tokita Jusan would not explain. He insisted that burning the house was his freedom and no one else had any right to interfere.

Yuya was too lazy to continue arguing with him.

The fire soon attracted other people. After receiving the call, Yamamura Cao specially called all the police officers and brought fire extinguishers.

Unfortunately, the fire in the cabin was too big to be put out with just a few fire extinguishers. They could only cut down the surrounding trees to create a barrier to prevent the fire from spreading.

Yamamura So came over and said to Yuya, "Detective Kamiya, you asked us to investigate the mummy, and the results are out."

"Oh? Did you find anything?"

Shancuncao scratched his head and said, "Those mummies were indeed specially treated after being burned. We can't find anything about the bodies themselves, such as DNA, blood, fingerprints, etc., but we found traces of treatment on the teeth of two of the mummies."

"Treatment?" Youye was stunned.

Shancuncao nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes, these are traces of repairs by modern machinery. This..." He suddenly screamed with an exaggerated expression, "Did someone kindly help these mummies repair their teeth before they were made?"

"..." You was speechless for a moment, and covered his forehead with his hands, "Officer Yamamura, if these mummies really came from ancient times, how could there be traces of processing by modern machinery?"

"There is no doubt that these mummies were created in recent decades."

Yamamura was stunned for a moment, then he touched the back of his head with an embarrassed expression: "I see, you are worthy of being Detective Kamiya."

Yuya sighed helplessly.

At this time, a police officer ran over and said, "Officer Shancun, we found a lot of marijuana in the cabin. They were all cultivated and recently picked. It's full!"

"What? Marijuana!" Shancuncao's face changed with shock. He looked towards the wooden houses suddenly. He could never have imagined that he would find a drug manufacturing base here?

Unlike ordinary cases, uncovering a drug manufacturing base is a great achievement! Could it be that he will be promoted to police chief in advance?

Thinking of this, Yamamura Cao looked at Yuya excitedly.

Yuuya was puzzled by the look, but he didn't care. He suddenly understood why Tokita Jusan wanted to burn down these wooden houses: "I see, no wonder you want to burn this place down. Are you worried that the police will find this place during the investigation?"

"If I'm not mistaken, there should be a marijuana field nearby?"

Yuya said this with gnashing teeth. What he hated most were people and things related to drugs.

He ordered his men to send the drug dealer caught last time to contribute to the land reclamation in Tokyo Bay, and later he cleared out a large number of people involved.

After being exposed, Tokita Jusan lost his arrogance and lowered his head in silence.

"And," Youye didn't intend to let him go. Now that his psychological defenses were broken, he could ask many questions more easily.

"Those mummies were made in recent decades. They are not guardian gods handed down from ancient times. Could you please explain, Mr. Tokita?"
