Fushimi Roku smelled something fishy and felt that Kujo Mutsumi was setting a trap, so he tentatively asked, "Since it's an investigation, why not entrust it to Tamako?"
Kujo Mutsumi replied, "I heard Little Wei mention Tamako's personality. I heard she's inherited Little Wei's shortcomings—being particularly nitpicky about everything. Some matters are inconvenient to discuss with her."
"What matters?" Fushimi Roku asked.
Kujo Mutsumi fell silent and didn't respond, so Fushimi Roku prodded, "You can't just blindfold the horse and expect it to run, can you?"
"Indeed," Kujo Mutsumi sighed, "You should know, Hokkaido has some islands bordering another country..."
"Oh!" Fushimi Roku instantly understood, "That northerner is from that country, right?"
Kujo Mutsumi nodded and added, "She's also my daughter-in-law, and her family isn't easy to deal with; otherwise, I wouldn't have let my son marry her."
"I see." Fushimi Roku could already sense how troublesome this case was.
