Ruolu opened the tablet in his hand and watched the live broadcast. In the picture, the girl closed her eyes, breathing evenly and falling into a deep sleep. More than two million people around the world were watching her sleeping face.

Ruolu said drunkenly: "Ah, this girl is so cute. After I rescue her, do you want to go on a date with her..."

"I'm a high school student. Forget about being a social person like you." Uesawa Palace joked.

Ruolu was unhappy: "Hey, I'm only 21 years old. I'm still young!"

The two of them teased each other, feeling relaxed, and soon walked into the hall of the warehouse.

"You are here."

Hasegawa Yui turned around and was about to say something when her cell phone suddenly rang. After she gestured to the two of them, she walked to the corner and answered the phone.

Her expression was very relaxed at first, but soon, she seemed to have heard some news, and her expression changed several times.

Baigui, who had just sent Naruto Akito back and then returned to the warehouse, also received a call. He listened to the other party's report while walking. When he took the last step, his face became gloomy.

.

"Is this the news to you too?" Baigui looked at Hasegawa Yui who hung up the phone.

Hasegawa Yui nodded, with a melancholy expression on his face: "Who can tell?"

"...You tell me." Baigui said.

Hasegawa Yui nodded, put his hands on the railing, took a deep breath, and tried to keep his tone calm: "Everyone, I just received news that the police have found the imitator Ohno Genpei and have him under control.

Yes, we also found the place where Kikuchi was imprisoned."

"Great!" The researchers around them cheered with smiles on their faces.

Hasegawa Yui waited for them to release their excited emotions. When it calmed down, she paused: "But... the victim Keiko Kikuchi is dead, and we are late."

"Why? Isn't the live broadcast still in progress?!"

Ruolu's pupils dilated and he quickly shifted his gaze to the tablet. On the tablet, the girl had just woken up and was rubbing her eyes sleepily. Then she was saying hello to the camera as if nothing had happened, cheering for herself.

gas.

Bai Gui said this sad fact with a cold face: "... Keiko Kikuchi has been dead for a day, and this imitator only started live broadcasting after Kikuchi died.

When you built the well, the girl was already dead. When Songgang led the police to find the prisoner, they only saw her cold body that had been dead for a day in a barrel in the basement."

The surroundings fell into a dead silence, and the researchers who were excited just now were now extremely stiff.

What is this? Could it be that all their efforts were in vain?

Ruolu covered his head, sat on the ground leaning against the railing, and laughed miserably: "Although the imitator was caught, the girl lost her life... This doesn't make people happy at all.

ah."

In the dead silence, Shang Zegong's cell phone vibrated.

Uesawamiya answered the phone with a numb expression. On the other end of the phone was Kotoko Iwanaga, who had a very lively voice.

"Kamizawa-kun, according to the information from the monsters, I have found the place where the gravedigger buried his victims, and I am on my way there now. How about it, am I fast enough?"

"Is that girl still broadcasting now? If I open the lid, will she suddenly appear in front of the whole world? In that case, would it be better for me to wear a mask? What mask do you think I should use? Use a rabbit mask

Or would a fox mask be better?"

Iwanaga Kotoko was still talking nonchalantly, still excited that she was about to save a young life, but she had no idea that Kamisawamiya's mood had reached rock bottom.

"Kotoko." Kamizawamiya interrupted her, and after a moment of silence, she said, "...Kikuchi Keiko is dead, and the recording is now being played on the website."

"Are you kidding me? We'll be there soon. I'll tell you the address. If you want to come, just come."

Kotoko Iwanaga didn't believe what Uesawa Palace said and thought he was joking with her.

"I'm not kidding, it's true. The police have discovered the murderer and... the body of Keiko Kikuchi."

Kamizawa's tone became more serious.

"...Then where am I going now?" Kotoko Iwanaga's voice trembled. She felt caught off guard and her mood fluctuated greatly.

"Maybe it's where the real gravedigger hid his body." After hearing the news, Uesawa Miya couldn't be happy at all, and replied softly to Kotoko Iwanaga.

No matter how powerful the monster is, there is no way to save a girl killed by human malice in advance.

"That's it...you should go to bed early and we'll contact you tomorrow."

Iwanaga Kotoko didn't know what to say and hung up the phone.

"I'm such an idiot..." Kotoko Iwanaga said regretfully, leaning her head on the back seat of the car.

"Qinzi..." The person driving the car in front was a girl with a cracked mouth, and she heard the conversation between the two.

Today is the weekend. She didn't have a part-time job during the day. She was killing time at the Turbo Wolf Bar, but she saw Kotoko Iwanaga coming here.

For yokai, the bar opened by Granny Turbine is one of the few yokai gathering places in Tokyo.

In order to build up the faith of the steel man Nanase as soon as possible for her to reappear in the world, Granny Turbine played the TV series and songs she had participated in on the TV in the lobby. Yuki Akane also brought her from the company

Some archived concert CDs.

Turbo Wolf, which usually doesn't have many youkai except for gatherings, is gradually seeing more and more youkai. Many youkai with nothing to do will gather there, so it is a perfect place to inquire for news.

Iwanaga Kotoko thought the same way and made this place a place to meet monsters. Under the order of "Princess-sama", the news of searching for "a girl buried in a barrel" quickly spread in the monster world.

.

It only took half a day for Kotoko Iwanaga to find out the news from the vast network of monsters. The slit woman was not going to sit idly by and wanted to give Kotoko Iwanaga a ride.

She originally thought she could save the girl, but when she suddenly heard the news, Iwanaga Kotoko was very depressed.

The cracked woman saw her expression through the rearview mirror and said while driving: "Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves. I really like this sentence said by an Indian poet in a collection of poems.

.

Life is important, but there is nothing you can do to stop the withering of life. This girl fought at the last moment of her life and did not succumb to the bad guys. Her performance was outstanding, right?

Both you and she have done the best they can, and there is no need to blame yourself."

"...Sister Hunkou, has anyone ever said that you look like those neighborhood committee aunts?" Iwanaga Kotoko wiped her tears and managed to laugh twice.

"I just saw a little more before leaving." The cracked woman said calmly, "Are we still going there next?"
