"How could this happen...How could this happen..."

Shinsaburo, whose cheeks and lips were all bloodless, stuffed his clothes and belongings into a large spread linen, while repeating the same words in a trembling tone in a tone that looked like a moan.

how so……

He is a diligent and honest person - all the people he knows and is familiar with Hikasaburo will basically comment on this 65-year-old man this year.

But he was so diligent and honest that he cruelly killed Grandma Ping last night.

There has always been a secret hidden in Xunsanro's heart that he has never told anyone about it.

He is childhood sweetheart with A Ping and has always liked A Ping.

I like Ah Ping.

I want to grow old with A Ping until I grow old.

But his feelings are just unrequited love after all...

When he was 15 years old, he showed his love to A Ping.

And A Ping... did not accept Xunsanro's love.

At that time, she had already met and fell in love with Kotaro, who was not a doctor at that time.

The following year when Shinsaburo revealed his feelings, Aping married Kotaro.

The cherished girl married as a wife. Although Xunsanro was depressed, he did not give up on himself.

He sincerely hopes that the woman he loves can be happy.

But I can't let go of my love for A Ping.

If...Kotaro suddenly died one day...will I have another chance?

Ahhh…If there really is one day coming…I have to be prepared…

He couldn't let go of his love for A Ping, so he chose to wait.

Waiting for the day when the position of "A Ping's husband" appears to be vacant.

Wait for the day when I have the opportunity to replace Kotaro...

In order to marry A Ping in a grand manner on the day when the opportunity arises, Xunsanro worked hard and saved money.

Strangely, since he had memory, he did not need long sleep and had never suffered from insomnia.

This has been the case for decades - just put your head on the pillow and you can fall asleep immediately. I have never seen any toss and turns and unable to sleep.

Most people have to sleep at least 3 or 4 hours a day, but they don’t need to sleep for so long. They only need to sleep about 2 hours a day to restore their energy.

Thanks to his unique physique, Xunsanro can spend more time working and making money.

When he had the most workload, he worked 4 jobs at the same time a day.

While he continued to maintain contact with A Ping, he worked hard to make money and save money like this.

There is no marriage, no marriage.

I've been waiting for decades.

It has been... until now, he finally waited for the arrival of this day - Kotaro's death.

Even though decades have passed, his love for A Ping has never been weak.

Even though A Ping is already old, he still loves A Ping.

Decades of hard work have also saved him a considerable amount of wealth.

The long wait finally came to an end, and Xunsanlang wanted to rush to A Ping.

But considering that Kotaro had just passed away, A Ping's mood should be very depressed, so Mitsuraro waited anxiously for another two months before coming to find A Ping last night.

Last night, Xunsanlang, who had changed into a brand new set of clothes, knocked on the door of A Ping's house.

Looking at Xunsanlang who suddenly came to visit him in the evening, although Ah Ping was surprised, he hurriedly invited this childhood sweetheart who had never been disconnected from the contact with him.

After a while of greeting with A Ping in the hall, Xunsanlang mustered up the courage to reveal his love to A Ping again after decades.

A Ping was shocked by a childhood sweetheart who was already covered in silver silk like herself.

A Ping never thought of finding a new partner for herself at this age.

So...she gave Xunsanro the same answer as he had decades ago.

Once again, he was rejected by his beloved woman.

At that moment, Xunsanro felt that the whole world was "still".

This strange "stationary feeling" lasted for only a moment.

After a moment, Xunsanro felt all kinds of emotions flowing into his chest and his mind.

Worried, unwilling, angry...

Why...you want to reject me? Why...you just can't accept me?

When knocking on A Ping's door, Xunsanlang was actually mentally prepared to be rejected by A Ping again.

He was obviously mentally prepared, but for some reason, after hearing A Ping's refusal again, he could not suppress the negative emotions in his heart.

I... feel like I have lost control of my body.

Angry, unwilling to accept... These negative emotions are like out-of-control beasts, swallowing Mitsusaburo.

When these negative emotions were intensifying to the extreme - he took out the sword he carried with him for self-defense...

Xunsanro could not remember what happened next.

As if he had lost his memory, Xunsanro couldn't remember what happened after he took out his sword.

I only remember... when I came to my senses, he was already lying on A Ping.

He held the sword of Hui, which was dyed red like his palms.

A Ping under her... has no rebirth.

The lost eyes met the horror-like eyes.

how so……?

I usually don’t even have the courage to quarrel with people on the street.

Why did I suddenly kill A Ping like a ghost?

After the shock, fear quickly surged on A Ping's cheeks.

I killed someone...

I don’t want to be captured by the “three times” people…!

If you want to escape... you can't be caught by the "three times" people!

My pity for my life has surpassed my apology and shame for killing Aping.

Although Xunsanro's mind was filled with fear at that time, he did not completely lose his mind.

In order to buy time for his overnight escape, when he escaped from Grandma Ping's house, Xinsanlang specially blew out a small piece of candle left at that time, creating the illusion that Grandma Ping's body was already asleep and prolonging the time when Grandma Ping's body was discovered.

When he stumbled back home, preparing to pack his luggage and flee Edo in the darkness... he regretted it again.

Edo is his hometown.

Leaving Edo... where can he go?

There is nowhere to go.

A mentality of luck popped up at this moment and quickly occupied his mind.

Just relying on the methods of solving cases that are inefficient and relied heavily on luck... The "three chapters" of the "Performance" are very likely to not be able to catch me at all!

As long as I stay at home with peace of mind, eat and drink, it won’t take long to get back on track!

Driven by this lucky mentality, Xunsanro gave up the idea of ​​escaping overnight and stayed at his home.

He usually falls asleep as soon as he gets hit by a pillow, and he can't sleep all night for the first time...

After all, Xunsanro's psychological quality is not that strong.

Although he kept saying to himself: "The person who had been following the "three times" probably wouldn't be able to catch me, he was always concerned about A Ping's related news. After he learned that A Ping's body had been discovered, he felt uneasy and could not keep calm.

Ah... Although the "three episodes" of case-solving are inefficient, they are not helpless in all cases...

Such thoughts kept hovering in Xunsanro's mind.

He was hesitant and unable to fight against the uneasiness and fear in his heart. He finally made up his mind just now - let's run away!

Escape from Edo, escape to somewhere, and never return to Edo!

Money, clothes...all kinds of necessities are brought...

After looking at his luggage, Xunsanlang realized that he had missed something very important-

“Pharm…medicine…”
