Chapter 22

Familiar restaurants, familiar tables by the window, familiar people.

When he saw Bai Shi Er again, he was still excited, but he keenly discovered that compared to Bai Shi Er yesterday, the expression on his face seemed a little solemn.

This made him feel a little nervous.

Before he found a trace of news about Hirota Mato, he had never seen such a solemn expression on Bai Shier. Is there something much worse than Hirota Mato has disappeared?

Bai Shier, who had such a nervous thought in his heart, had the excitement on his face turned into caution.

"Brother Su."

According to yesterday's agreement, Mato Ritsu came to the table and imitated those people in the martial arts world and bowed to Bai Shier and said.

"Brother Li is here, please sit down."

Mato Ritsumi sat down. After getting the reward, he happily went downstairs. In the past two days, the reward he received from Bai Shier alone was worth two months.

"Encourt, no, Brother Su, Brother Su's face looks much worse today than yesterday. Did you encounter any problems? Why don't you tell me about it and see if I can help you."

"Mato Hirota is missing."

Bai Shier looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he leaned forward and signaled Mato Ritsu to agree to come closer and try his best to lower his voice and whisper.

"What?!"

Although Mado Ritsu guessed from Bai Shier's solemn expression that there might be a big problem, after hearing the seven words that Bai Shier said, he still couldn't help but bounce off the chair, knocked down the chair, and shouted. The other guests at the table couldn't help but look at it in the sound.

"Ahem."

Bai Shier quickly coughed twice, realizing that his shouting was really big, Tatsuzo Mato quickly clasped his fists apologized to those looking at the gazes.

"idiot."

After spending a lot of time, Mato Ritsu, who finally stopped paying too much attention to him, just as he helped the chair to sit down, he heard Bai Shier's suppressed angry scolding.

Mato Ritsuru blushed and lowered his head and did not dare to look at Bai Shier.

Because Bai Shier scolded him correctly, his approach just now was no different from that of a fool.

"Special Envoy, Mato Team Leader..."

After being silent for a moment and suppressing the shame on his face a lot, Mato Ritsuma finally plucked up the courage to continue speaking. Although he was still a little embarrassed, Bai Shier's words just now shocked him. It seemed as if there were countless ants crawling in his heart, which made him really unbearable.

"At present, the most likely reason for Mato Hirota's disappearance is to run away for fear of guilt."

"Fear of sin?!"

Takizu Mato's voice became louder again. Fortunately, with the previous lesson, this time, he suppressed the shock in his heart in time and his voice in time.

"Mato Hirota has been arrested for so long, so he can't stand the punishment, so he has betrayed Takahara and the first team."

Bai Shier, who was still very dissatisfied with Mado Takizu's whisper, glanced at him and then whispered with a little dissatisfaction.

"Betrayal! This, this, this..."

Takisan Mato felt that the blow he had suffered today was a bit too big. Every time Bai Shier said something, it was a critical hit to him.

"What? Do you think I'm lying to you?"

Bai Shier glanced at him with a bit of threat in his eyes.

"The villain dares not."

Mato Ritsuko shrank, and quickly lowered her head, saying that she didn't dare.

"Just not dare?"

Bai Shier still had no intention of letting him go and continued to ask coldly.

"No, no, no, villain, villain..."

Mato Ritsu couldn't help but stutter, feeling a little wet on his back and a lot of sweat beads on his forehead.

"Whether you believe it or not, Mato Hirota suddenly disappeared after being rescued by me. I checked his room without a trace of fighting with others, that is, he left by himself. I have searched for a long time since last night, but I still haven't found any clues."

Although he could conquer the other party as a special envoy, the other party was a Japanese who had the same clan and surname as Mato Hirota and had lived with him for a long time. Bai Shireng knew that if he could not give enough reasons, even if the other party expressed his words in front of him, he would still doubt his words in his heart.

"So, I'm the most reasonable possibility that I have inferred based on the current evidence."

After hearing Bai Shi Er's words, even if he couldn't believe that Mato Hirota would betray the organization and the first team, Mato Ritsu had to believe Bai Shi Er's words for five points. However, he still had a lot of doubts in his heart, and even plucked up all his courage to question Bai Shi Er.

"Sir, if this is true, why was the team leader not taken away by the enemy, and why did he escape after being rescued by the Sir?"

"If you have this question, it seems that you are not stupid."

Bai Shier replied in a sarcasm.

"Look at this."

Bai Shier did not explain anymore, but took out something from his arms and handed it to Mato Ritsu. It was the piece of white cotton cloth that Bai Shier found in Mato Hirota's room.

"Is this?"

Mato Ritsumi looked at the white cotton cloth with confusion on her face.

"I found it on the ground in Hirota Mato's room, and before he escaped, it should have been stacked in square shapes and placed on the ground."

“…”

Mado Takizo was silent.

As a Japanese samurai, even a low-level samurai, he knew the details of the septum better than Bai Shier.

After carefully checking the white cotton cloth in his hand, Mato Ritsumi had already believed Bai Shier's judgment in his heart.

As long as the cloth was not prepared intentionally by the other party to deceive him, then Mafu Hirota should have really escaped for fear of guilt.

After losing all the courage before separating the abdomen, he ran away like a stray dog.

"I know it's definitely difficult for you to accept this fact, but fate has always liked to fool people so much."

Seeing Mado Ritsu fell into silence, Bai Shier's tone softened a little, and he sighed and said.

"Please rest assured, I will notify others of this matter and let everyone pay attention to the traces of the traitor."

Mado Ritsu, who had been silent for a long time, finally raised his head again, looked directly into Bai Shier's eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"If you really can't accept it, go back to Hatsushima first to report this to Captain Mato and let him be careful. I will do the task of eliminating Mato Hirota. After all, he also escaped under my nose."
