Parked on a viewing platform created by the mountain road, Fu Jixianri and Zhen Zhongkui left the car and walked outside, looking out at the view ahead.

The slight snow in the sky is still falling. After the snowflakes fall on the ground, they melt quickly, leaving only a little insignificant decoration on the treetops... Time has not really come to cold, and the ground temperature is still there, so even in Hokkaido, it is difficult to see snow at this time.

But with her breathing again and again, Fu Jixianli could still feel the coolness in the air. At this time, Minakakui had already put on the down jacket brought by Fu Jixianli. Since it was his clothes, the size was definitely inappropriate... At this time, Sister Kui looked like she was draped on her body. Keeping warm is definitely warm, and people looked swaying in the clothes.

“Very nice view, right.”

While saying this, Makakui rolled up her sleeves, exposed her little palm, and used her mobile phone to confirm the next route.

The sky looks a little gloomy, but it is not too much. Although the sun is gone, its brightness can still spread through the not-so-thick clouds, and the falling snow petals spread into the mountains and the green forests.

The undulating valleys and forests densely covered with mountains are still working together to carry out a huge transpiration. A large amount of moisture is relieved from the breath, so the fog that evaporates on the earth and the falling snow in the sky are reflected in front of Fu Jixianli's eyes like a scroll.

"Just talking about natural scenery can be regarded as magnificent, but considering what we are going to do next and what might happen in the mountain before, this scene has cast a layer of mystery for everything... Whether it is snow or fog, it is like that."

Fu Jixianli never stings with his praise for his natural landscape. No matter what a person's subjective ideas are, he will never deliberately violate objective facts when speaking.

At this time, even Fu Jixianli remembered a movie.

Do you know that the speed of snowflakes falling is every second...

Well, it is definitely not the case. He remembered the movie "The Legend of the Mountain Festival" directed by Imamura. The story tells the story of a poor mountain village in ancient Japan. Due to a long-term lack of food, the elderly were carried to the mountain by their children to die when they reached the age of sixty or seventy. This ceremony was even called "sacrificing to the mountain god".

At the end of the film, the hero carries his mother into the mountains in a heavy snowy weather.

It is not a wonder that Fu Jixianli has such associations. The better the natural appearance of mountains and rivers, the easier it is to give people an ancient touch. It is a thing that has been a hundred years or thousands of years or even exaggerated to say that it is "unchanged everlasting".

In comparison, the dimension of time that a person crosses in his life seems very small.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Fu Jixianri seemed a little distracted, Minakakui asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a bit touching the scenery. In many cases, things like natural scenery follow the law of the more 'magnificent', the more 'brutally'. I hope we won't encounter difficulties when we enter the mountain this time."

"You can't think of something good? Look at the construction of the infrastructure on this road, do you really think this is the Warring States Period?" Minakakui felt that Fu Jixianli was young, but she always liked to think about it.

"There is no problem with the direction, and breathability is enough, right? Then let's continue to set off."

"Okay," Fu Jixianli opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot. "Sister Kui is careful when driving. The road is slippery in rainy and snowy weather. Be careful when stepping on the accelerator every time. If you accidentally rush off the road..."

This man is still not thinking about good things.

"Don't worry, with your self-protection ability, it is estimated that even a cliff of 20 or 30 meters will not be able to kill you."

"If you fall, you won't kill you, but if you break the car, don't we have to pay for it?"

“…”

Mazu Aoi decided not to pay attention to Fu Jixianli because she was worried that if she continued to communicate, she couldn't help but rush down the mountain with the accelerator.

After driving forward for more than an hour, the two finally saw a street sign similar to "Katishikawa-cho" on the mountain on the side of the road. After moving along the direction indicated by the sign for more than ten minutes, the narrow mountain road suddenly became clear, and a village hidden in the valley appeared in front of them.

"Anti-colored" here retains a certain primitive flavor, but it cannot be called out of date and its appearance is not out of touch with the times. When Fu Jixianli saw this, his first impression was quite good.

At first glance, in addition to the village, you can also see ponds, fields, terraces and orchards of unknown variety that are far away. It seems that this is a traditional and quiet village.

The roasted wooden telephone poles were lined up by the roadside at a distance, and the wires mounted on them drooped a natural arc under the action of gravity. Aoi Minaka drove the car forward at a slower speed. The passers-by along the way were not surprised by the sudden appearance of the vehicle. On the contrary, they greeted the men and women in the car naturally and enthusiastically.

"It's a place that supports tourism. Otherwise, it's not like you can't survive in such a place, but there's no reason to stick to the mountains... Isn't life in big cities delicious?"

Fu Jixianri said while observing the situation outside, he didn't believe that a stranger would smile at someone who was completely unrelated to him, especially in a country like Japan... being indifferent and almost indifferent was his first feeling for Japanese society.

Therefore, the smiling faces of passers-by are just "business faces".

"It should be, but not all. At least if forestry has a business scale, the income it brings is still considerable." Because of the corresponding investigation, Zhong Kui's understanding of this village must be greater than that of Fu Jixianli. "But no matter what, there are no tourists or traffic here at this time, and we just happened to be stuck at a time point that is neither up nor down."

Before entering the village, Aoi Makazu stopped the car a little and asked the location of "Morishita Chiko"'s house with an old man next to her. After getting the other party's response, she headed straight to that location.

Although we have to investigate the matters about Zhu Xing's brother and sister, Fu Jixianli and others are not policemen, so they are not easy to knock on the other party's door and ask. This kind of operation is not that it cannot be beaten, but that it is easy to achieve no other effect except "shocking the enemy".

So Fu Jixianri and Marui are preparing to disguise themselves as tourists who look so painful to come here to travel.

Then the car parked at the door of a small Japanese courtyard. Makoto Ao stayed in the car first. Fu Jixianri got off the car, entered the yard for a while and asked, then walked out and said to Makoto Ao, "Sister Ao, that's right, it's here."

At the same time, a girl who seemed to be in a light blue kimono, who was almost apart from Zhu Xingxian, followed him to the door.

Fu Jixianri showed off Zhen Zhongkui with his eyes, and this person was Morishita's Masako.

"Please come with me, sorry, for our place, the car can only be parked in the back."

"Okay, please point me in the direction." Aoi Maru said after poking her head out of the car window.

At this time, Morishita only felt that the young lady sitting in the car looked at her with a strange look. This feeling was not easy to describe. He only felt that the other person's gaze seemed too focused, as if he wanted to see through her... However, this feeling came and went quickly, and immediately the other person restrained his gaze, so Morishita did not care.

Previously, Fu Jixianli had learned that in this kind of village where tourism is the main business method, Senxia Family is doing family business... Well, it seems that it is not suitable to say that it is a homestay or a family hotel. Fu Jixianli always thinks that the term "farmhouse" seems to be more appropriate.

There are three people in this family, Morishita's father, mother and daughter, and son. Just from this brief superficial contact, Fu Jixianli felt that they were all ordinary people and did not feel anything unusual... Of course, his subjective feelings have no reference value.

After Aoi Makana parked the car, she returned to the courtyard again under the leadership of Morishita Chiko, and then they walked along the corridor toward the main building of the house.

"At this time, guests come to our village and feel that it is still relatively new. Now it is not the 'peak season' for us... Generally speaking, there are more tourists here during the 'stone hunting festival' some time ago and a little later Christmas, and during New Year's Day."

While introducing the situation here... In fact, it was just chatting, Morishita Chiko led the two into the room.

"Well, the time is just right, we like to be calmer... This time we are coming out to relax." Aoi Maraka said.

"Welcome!"

After entering the room, a middle-aged couple expressed their welcome to the guests while bowing deeply to Fu Jixianli and the others. The same was true for their daughter, and turned around and bowed.

Fu Jixianli always feels that if his waist is not flexible enough, he can't be a Japanese. He folds it to 90 degrees anytime and anywhere. It is best not to imitate it easily without professional training, as it is easy to shiver.

The middle-aged couple is relatively round, and their daughter Morishita's Aoko can be called a beautiful and beautiful person. At this time, Mazu Aoi had already quietly beat Fu Jixianli up and said that she had not found any problems with the three of them for the time being.

"Please register for two guests here... Are you a couple? Is that room OK? Because there are no guests now, the largest room can be selected by the two at will."

"Yes." Fu Jixianli walked over with a smile and registered the check-in information. When he said yes, Ma Nakakui did not object... Regardless of whether the real information was registered here, at least the identity of the couple should have to be forged, because this would seem reasonable.

When a young man and woman go on a trip, their relationship seems to be slightly problematic except for the couple... It is not a couple relationship, is it still the relationship of "his and his friend's wife"?

"Oh, did the two guests come from Tokyo?" After filling out the registration form and returning it to each other, Morishita said, "There are not many tourists during this period, and even fewer guests come from Tokyo."

Fu Jixianri glanced at Makazukui and decided to take a quiz.

"We originally planned to travel to Hokkaido like this, but we have actually seen all the famous landmark attractions. If we go there, we will feel a little aesthetically exhausted. At this time, someone recommended Kashiwakawa Town for us and said that this is a quiet and beautiful place.

After listening to the other party’s advice, we decided to come here... The friend who suggested that we come here to relax is called Zhu Xingxian. I wonder if you still have any impressions."

Fu Jixianli tried to say Zhu Xingxian's name, and then seemed to be indifferent, but in fact he stared at the other party's expression.

"Zhu Xing? Oh, it should be my daughter's friend who knows her son. The brother and sister had just been here during the hunting festival some time ago. It seems that the scenery here is good, so she recommended it to you." Morishita's father smiled, and his reaction looked very natural.

"Are the two guests Xiaoxian's friends?" Fu Jixianri's statement also attracted the attention of Morishita.

“Yes, I’ve been in contact with it a few times.”

Well, Fu Jixianli’s answer means “know, but not familiar with each other”. There is no need to forcefully say that they are friends because they are not, and that is easy to reveal themselves.

"Haha, that's right. When my daughter was young, she lived in a relative's house in Tokyo for a while. During that time, Miss Zhuxing was among the friends she met." Morishita's father said.

"Guests, go and check the room first. If you don't have lunch, do we need to prepare?"

It doesn't seem like standing here and chatting, so he said this.

"Yes, I'll bother you for lunch." Fu Jixianli agreed immediately.

"Tsuko, take two guests to see the room."

"Okay, two guests, please come with me."

Next, Morishita Chiko took the two of them back and then took them to the largest guest room on the second floor... Fu Jixianli deliberately showed himself a calm look that he was not short of money, so of course he had to provide him with the best environment and service.

"Customer, how is it here?"

After walking to the door of the room, Morishita Chiko pressed the hem of the kimono and sat down, then reached out and pulled open the sliding door in front of her.

The room is also very traditional and elegant. There is even a square floor stove in the center of the room. There is a round iron pot on the floor stove, and a metal hook connected to the ceiling hangs it directly above.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Fu Jixianri and Zhen Zhongkui entered the room, and after a walk, they plunged into the bathroom... Thank goodness, the bathroom and toilet are both modern equipment, and there are no cesspools in the room.

"There is a problem," Aoi Makana lowered her voice and said to Fu Jixianri, "One of the time, Zhu Xingxian's claim that Morishita's phone number was not accessible, and secondly, according to Zhu Xingxian's statement, her brother disappeared. After she called the police, the police should have come to the village to conduct a corresponding investigation, but... this side is completely ignorant."

When Fu Jixianli mentioned Zhu Xingxian, the other party acted too naturally, so it seemed extremely unnatural.

You should know that Zhu Xingchi is probably already a dead person now, why can Senxia’s family care about this situation?

This is very unreasonable.
