Chapter 1043 Duowen? Captain Li of the Heavenly Palace Security Team!
Everyone followed the old monk and walked for a distance, passing through the path in the forest.
It took about ten minutes to reach the house that the young monk mentioned.
It was a temple building that looked like the one in the story of three monks on a mountain.
It should be said that Japanese architecture has the shadow of the Tang Dynasty.
Buddhism was introduced to Japan in the Tang Dynasty.
At that time, Buddhism was still very powerful in the Tang Dynasty, and it could even be said that it had reached the level of infiltration.
So much so that the legendary wife of the first green room of the Tang Dynasty, the legendary Princess Gaoyang who hanged herself before the rebellion was successful, was looking for a monk named Bian Ji to satisfy her desires.
And the room that the monk Chuanjiu mentioned was just a clean empty room.
There was nothing good to see.
There was only one word, simple.
So simple that it really gave people the feeling that this temple was a temple of some enlightened monk who did not seek worldly fireworks.
Hattori Heiji glanced at the room and asked the monk Denkyu: "So, where did you see the body, monk?"
"It's in the upper right corner of this room!"
Following the monk's instructions, Conan and Hattori Heiji moved directly to the place where the monk pointed, and then lifted the tatami on the ground.
Conan looked at the bottom of the tatami, and suddenly his body trembled, as if he had discovered something.
Compared to Conan and Hattori who were concentrating on the investigation.
The girls seemed more leisurely and elegant.
Looking at the statue in a glass display case in the corner of the room on the left side of the entrance.
"Statue of God?"
"Could this be Nioh?"
Mouri Ran and Toyama Kazuha looked at the statue curiously and guessed.
Ooka Hongye looked at the statue, blinked, and said, "This should be the Vaisravana among the Four Heavenly Kings."
"Miss Hongye, do you recognize this statue?"
"Of course..."
As a Kyoto native whose hometown was plagued by Buddhism and full of temples, no one present understood Buddhism better than Ooka Hongye. She thought for a moment and introduced, "Vasravana holds a wisdom umbrella or a pagoda in his right hand and a divine rat in his left hand. Although it doesn't look like it, it can be seen. The other heavenly kings are Dhritarashtra holding a jade pipa, Virūdhaka holding a blue cloud sword, and Vipassana holding a red dragon, and they are respectively guarding the four directions."
Ai Huihara on the side silently added, "The Vaisravana in the north is the most respected of the Four Heavenly Kings. Legend has it that because Vaisravana saved Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin, the Chinese army would worship Vaisravana in ancient times. At the same time, Vaisravana also means the god of wealth."
Fujino consciously mixed in with the girls and did not intend to mix with the two big and small ones who were investigating the scene.
What are you doing with those two who are kneeling on the ground with their butts sticking out?
How sweet are cute girls?
Look at the other one who is doing the popular science.
Fujino feels that he, a Chinese, should also say something about the Four Heavenly Kings.
So he said, "In different mythological systems, the Four Heavenly Kings have different positions. For example, in the Taoist legend, these are guardian gods who are responsible for guarding the South Gate of Heaven. The Heavenly King of Many Wisdom is the famous Tang Dynasty general, the Heavenly King of Tota, and his position in Heaven is equivalent to guarding the gate of Heaven. In short, Captain Li, who is standing in the north with an umbrella to watch the show, and his three Heavenly Security Team members, who are holding a zither, a sword, and a snake on their shoulders..."
"So that's how it is..."
"Then the one holding the umbrella is Captain Li of the Heavenly Security Team!"
Mao Lilan and Toyama Kazuha nodded as if they understood. Obviously, the two of them did not know much about Buddhist culture, and they were a little confused when they heard it, but they still understood the general content.
By looking at what the statue is holding, you can determine which one of the Heavenly Palace Security Team he is!
The old abbot behind him couldn't help twitching his eyebrows when he heard Fujino's outrageous analogy and the girls' reactions.
How could the Four Great Heavenly Lords of Buddhism become the security team!
Slander, you are slandering!
Be careful or I will call the Eighteen Bronze Men to beat you to death!
I really want to light a fire on behalf of my Buddha and burn these people in front of me as heretics!
The old monk suppressed his anger in his heart and silently chanted in his heart that my Buddha is merciful.
Then he forced a smile and said, "This... this is right. These statues are indeed the Four Heavenly Kings. The room facing north is Vaisravana, the room facing west is Vimalakirti, the room facing south is Virūpākṣa, and the room facing east is Dhritarashtra. Each room is guarded by a corresponding Heavenly King, and it has been passed down in our temple for many generations. It is an important asset of our Shengyue Temple."
"No wonder it is sealed with a glass cover."
Fujino narrowed his eyes and looked at the amiable old abbot with his peripheral vision.
He had some impression of this case.
However, the location of the temple changed from Tokyo to Osaka in his memory?
In short, this case should be right, and all the elements match.
As for the real culprit of this case, of course, it is the same as Hattori Heiji's guess. It was the old abbot who hid the body and fooled the young monk.
Don't look at the kind-hearted old abbot. He is a wolf-killer.
He belongs to the kind-hearted one who is a little more ruthless.
Of course, it is not accurate to say that she is the real murderer. After all, in his hazy memory, the woman should have committed suicide.
And this old abbot just hid the body.
We don’t know why the old abbot hid the bodies of people who committed suicide.
Anyway, it was just hidden away like a brain twitch.
As for how to hide the body, his memory only vaguely remembered what hiding method was used. It was not a blinding method to hide the body, but a blinding method to hide the people who had died here and the blood left behind. .
As for the corpse, it is estimated that it should be buried nearby, or that it has been disposed of by the old abbot.
These memories are of no use, they can only prove that the old abbot indeed hid the body.
Fujino thought this, and looked behind him at Conan and Hattori Heiji who were muttering something unknown.
Well, this time it’s up to two migrant workers.
Anyway, his mission is to find the body, not to extract a confession from the old monk.
After these two guys find out where the body is hidden, then they can dig up the body with a shovel. Wouldn't it be nice to be a body picker?
…………
Obviously, thanks to the old abbot's special talent, everyone found nothing this time.
Time gradually came to sunset, and the old abbot wanted to invite everyone to stay in this temple, which seemed very leisurely.
Of course, everyone declined the invitation to host.
Mainly girls. After all, living in a temple, it is still such a remote place, and there are statues around them, anyone will feel a little depressed.
Hattori Heiji, on the other hand, held a different view: "Conan and I want to live here, mainly because we want to understand how the old abbot got rid of the blood stains!"
"Ha, haven't you all seen it?" Yuan Shan and Ye Wuyu said: "If someone died in that room, there would definitely be blood stains on the tatami. Didn't you all see it? There is no trace of blood at all. "
"Hmm..." Ooka Hongye nodded when he heard this, and said: "And I have seen the color of those tatami mats for a long time, and they don't look like they have been replaced. If they are replaced with new ones, you can definitely tell at a glance."
"That is to say, there are still traces of spilled beer and cigarette burns on it." Mao Lilan nodded, showed a big sister's smile, and agreed: "If you ask me, the monk must have been in a sleep state. Wrong, otherwise, could it be a ghost? "
Haiyuan Ai listened quietly on the side and did not express his opinion on the matter.
She feels that professional matters should be left to professionals.
If you encounter a problem, of course you have to ask the magical Fujino.
So, she asked:
"Fujino, what do you think of the old abbot?"
