Early in the morning, Gu Xing picked up the phone, and Anda's voice sounded on the receiver:
"Have you gotten up yet, Gu Xingjun?"
"Well...didn't you say that everyone should have a little more rest today?"
"Today is the autumnal equinox," Adachi said, "I am going to visit the graves of Ryozo, Hidero and the others in the afternoon. The Shiratori Police Department asked me to remind everyone not to forget. Also, we have to prepare in advance..."
"Oh~ I will definitely go."
Gu Xing got up from the bed and opened the window, letting in the sunlight.
The first day of moving into a new home.
The bedroom was very clean this morning. There was no Haye looking at him affectionately, and no Eijiro waiting for him with a proposal.
The newly rented apartment has a living room and study room. When he came back last night, Gu Xing kicked all the weirdos out... Zaohui resisted for a while, but couldn't resist Gu Xing's insistence, so she had to move a chair at the door of the bedroom and wait.
Gu wake up and get up.
Even Xiaodong was invited out of the bedroom by Gu Xing and placed in the corner of the study - but Xiaodong and Gu Xing can now communicate at any time and anywhere, so...it doesn't make much sense to invite him out.
Looking through the weird trader's book "Pawn Shop No. 8", Obayashi Hitomi's current status is -
【She is on her way...】
Gu Xing is actually looking forward to seeing what kind of weirdness Dalin Tongzi can accommodate, but the road is still quite long, so let's wait and see.
On the other side of Eijiro's proposal, the tragedy of Uragusaburo has also been arranged, so stay tuned for the live broadcast tonight.
Closing the book, Gu Xing yawned.
If you go to visit a tomb, you still need to dress more formally. There are no special requirements for clothing when visiting a tomb, but neatness and simplicity are the minimum requirements.
Gu Xing opened the closet and looked at the few clothes he had... It was a waste to use such a big closet.
He looked around and finally chose the police uniform that Ryozo and the others had been wearing for the past few days.
"Just wait here for the Shiratori Police Department to replace them..."
Standing at the entrance of the cemetery, Gu Xing and Anda arranged each other's clothes - both of them put on police uniforms by coincidence.
"Do you have any special needs for my boogers these past two days..."
"roll."
Standing next to the two people was Shengzi - this morning, Gu Xing made a special call to the housing agency, and then he learned that Shengzi decided to rent the Shibuya apartment much earlier than Gu Xing, so
…In fact, it was the Son who came first.
In this way, Gu Xing felt much more at ease.
He had previously suspected that the Holy Son had chased him to the Shibuya apartment. It seemed that he was just being sentimental and took himself too seriously...Gu Xing, what are you thinking about...so gentle, lively and beautiful?
Girl, do you think she really likes you?
From now on, we can get along with each other as normal colleagues.
Because the criminal department was sweeping the graves of their colleagues, the tributes were prepared together. The three people responsible for this work were Gu Xing, Anda, and Shengzi, who were the least senior in this class.
The three people were busy all morning, preparing fresh chrysanthemums, incense, candles, fruits, snacks, tobacco and alcohol, paper for placing tributes, lighters, vases, small buckets for cleaning the cemetery, water spoons, sponges, rags and
Garbage bags, etc.
Colleagues from the Criminal Division arrived one after another, and they were almost there.
After a while, Saury, who was carrying an old anime called "The Legend of Demon Heroes", rushed over with his assistant Muraoka Kao.
Their arrival was something that neither Gu Xing nor the other three expected. Gu Xing suddenly felt that the saury that he always read comics whenever they met had a trace of humanity. It was incredible.
"You two just came here empty-handed?" Adachi leaned next to Muraoka Kao and whispered: "It's so embarrassing..."
"I know you're ready," said Saury, who was far away, turning a page of the comic, "It's a good idea to save a little."
"..."
As expected of an investigator, he has a very good ear.
"do you know,"
Kao Muraoka revealed an inside message to Gu Xing and the others,
"Last time, a few days after the incident where your Criminal Division was locked up by a taxi, the bodies of Yukio Ueno, Ryozo Negishi, Naoki Sunaga, Takumi Ishida, and Hidero Terai suddenly appeared in this cemetery...
…
It is placed in front of each of their tombstones... Moreover, everyone's clothes are clean and neat, and their appearance is decent, as if they have been specially cleaned up by an undertaker."
"Ah...how to dispose of the body?"
"Of course we invited all the family members here. Although everyone is very sad, fortunately they can still see the remains of their loved ones... You know, most of the people who were taken away by taxis have no news at all now."
Shengzi and Anda were both surprised.
"Did the taxi driver deliver it?"
"We don't feel much alike,"
Muraoka Kao then said: "Could that be something weird did?"
"Could it be that the driver finally understood-"
The Holy Son said: "He killed the wrong good person, so he felt guilty, so he expressed his apology in this way?"
"How is it possible...that taxi is weird,"
Muraoka Kao said: "You guys should understand the grotesques after going through the criminal class several times, right? The grotesques are the incarnation of rules, how can they have self-awareness?"
Although the Holy Son knew that Kao Muraoka was a professional and what he said was of course more in line with common sense, he still couldn't help but mutter:
"If only he really knew what he did was wrong..."
"It's weird, it's weird,"
Kao Muraoka also muttered, "Who sent it here? It will become an eternal mystery..."
【Hey……】
After a while, the white bird, the frogman and the red shirt arrived at about the same time.
The chain on the chest of the red shirt was so red that it was almost turning black. Gu Xing seriously suspected that she would be swallowed by some terrible monster at any time. Everyone around her seemed like her chosen scapegoat.
[Are you sure you don’t want to help the beauty in red shirt? I think her condition is really not good]
"How can I help?" Gu Xing asked, "Are you going to be a freshly baked scapegoat?"
[It's not impossible... In fact, I still prefer beauties. If the beauty in red shirt becomes the describer instead of you, tsk tsk... the picture can be imagined. With her fiery temperament, she might be able to mess up the whole book.
"Of course," Anda shook the bag in his hand, "It's very complete."
"Colleagues,"
Shiratori said: "On the way just now, Ms. Karasawa Makoto called me and invited all the adults who participated in the investigation last night to have dinner with all our colleagues in the Criminal Division. Everyone has put aside other things in the evening."
"yes!"
"Miss Karasawa is so considerate!"
"I never thought in my life that I would be able to have dinner with Ms. Karasawa!"
"I think Miss Karasawa actually just wants to be alone with me, and she invited you just because she doesn't want to lose face... Otherwise, you all need to be more understanding..."
"Even if I am admitted to the ICU, even if I am issued a critical illness notice, I will crawl to Ms. Karasawa's dining table!"
When worshiping, everyone clasped their hands and secretly recited the names of their deceased colleagues, then began to scrub the tombstone, clean the surrounding area, then arrange flowers, place offerings, burn incense, and pour water on the entire tombstone during worship... The white bird was taken out.
The autographed photos that I and Karasawa Makoto had come for the day before were set on fire in front of the tombstones of several deceased colleagues.
"My good friends who have fought side by side,"
Facing the leaping fire in front of the tombstone, Shiratiao clasped his hands and murmured: "I really miss the days when we all watched "The Island" together and discussed the plot together. In this kind of world full of horror and weirdness, leaving
Maybe it will be a kind of happiness, so you can go on your way with peace of mind..."
"Are you going to Tangze's banquet tonight?"
The frogman standing in the back row asked the red shirt, "I remember you were chasing "The Fantasy Island" at that time - by the way, Karasawa's invitation was also sent to all of us in the Special Investigation Section."
"There is no time," Hong Shi shook his head, "Maybe tonight, I will go to report to Emperor Meiji."
"Hey, I really can't help you with this matter,"
The frogman turned to look at Saury, "Hey, you guy, do you have to read comics while sweeping someone's grave? That's too rude."
"how,"
Saury raised his head and looked around, "Are you sure you want me to put away the comics? This is a cemetery..."
"Stop-"
Judging from past practical experience, places with a lot of dead people have a higher chance of weird things happening.
The frogman asked again: "Then are you going, tonight?"
"Didn't that weird taxi take away another person yesterday?"
Saury immersed himself in reading comics again, "I feel like he will take action tonight, so I plan to wait and see."
"Oh, the name of the one taken away yesterday is Xiao Zhulila," the frogman said: "Yesterday they said that the matter between this Xiao Zhulila and her best friend has been quite hot recently... She was actually killed by that taxi
Taken away, has the ingratitude thing been confirmed?"
"Probably,"
Saury turned a page, "However, I am more concerned about her boyfriend - a rich second-generation man named Saburo Uragashi. I always feel that something is going to happen to him..."
"Asshole!!! Scary to death!"
After returning from the bathroom, Saburo Uragawa discovered that Kayako's face in the movie "The Grudge" had changed into that of Chiharu Ishizaki... It was the same numb expression that night when Chiharu was cut into half parts, and the atmosphere of terror suddenly filled up.
Immediately afterwards, every character in the movie had a face of Chiharu on their neck. It was Chiharu who was lying on the operating table, the doctor and nurse were Chiharu, and it was Chiharu who crawled out of Chiharu's belly...
Saburo Uragawa, who had just complained that horror movies were not scary enough, suddenly felt cold from head to toe.
"Snapped!"
He immediately turned off the TV, and before he could take a deep breath, he discovered that the fish in his fish tank all had Chiharu's bloody face on their heads.
"Boom!"
Uragisaburo smashed the fish tank, and the ornamental fish scattered all over the floor, flopping around, with Chiharu's face open and her mouth wide open.
The domestic cat with a thousand-year-old face ran over and picked up a fish on the front couplet in its mouth.
"Dead woman!"
Uragisaburo's expression was extremely bad, and he kicked the cat away, "Why don't you want to live in peace even if you're already dead?"
After a while, Kubo Shoichi, his friend and horse boy, indeed brought a young, beautiful and coolly dressed woman to his home. However, the woman had the face of Chiharu... She was really beautiful and scary at the same time.
"Are you an idiot? Bringing this kind of stuff home?" Uragezaburo yelled.
"Uh... I look pretty."
"That's what only a fool like you can see!"
Uragusaburo knew that he was probably encountering evil spirits, or something dirty.
As a kid from a rich family, he often heard about such evil things happening in other people's homes, so he immediately called his mother:
"Hey, Mom, if you don't want to see your son dead without a complete body, please quickly invite a witch or Yang master to come over!"
After being tortured by the miko for a whole day, Uragusaburo's condition got worse and worse. Everyone had Chiharu's face on their head. That miko couldn't even wear a mask on her face. Moreover, that face
The more he looked at it, the more terrifying it became. Even a man like him, who considered himself very courageous, could hardly bear it anymore and felt that his sanity was about to be lost.
In the middle of doing this, a cat with a Chiharu face suddenly jumped out and dug its claws into Saburo Urageta's face, leaving several long wounds on his handsome face... It was really unlucky, if these wounds
How could he seduce beautiful women in the future if the wound was not completely healed and left scars... Uragusaburo was so angry that he almost picked up a kitchen knife and chased the cat.
The witch said that in all likelihood, this kind of situation is no longer in the category of evil spirits stalking people. It is most likely to be weird. It has happened more and more frequently in recent years, and it is necessary to seek help from the special department of the police.
The mother has used her connections to contact the police, and it is said that a department called the Special Investigation Section of the police headquarters has arranged for professionals to handle the matter.
"Then let those bastards come over quickly..."
Uragusaburo couldn't stand it anymore, "Are the people in the special department so inefficient? They don't even know how to teleport and teleport, do they still deserve to be called the special department? Do you really want to watch me being scared to death by that dead woman?
?"
In the middle of the night, after getting into a taxi, Saburo Uragashi felt much better.
The face of the driver in the front seat turned out to be normal... This was the most friendly face he had seen since he walked out of the bathroom today, even though this face looked a bit gloomy from any angle.
It was raining red and mist outside.
Uragazaburo suddenly couldn't remember why he got into a taxi or how he got into a taxi.
How could a kid from a rich family like him take a taxi... Otherwise, why hire those drivers? Why did the family buy so many good cars?
When he mentioned taxis, he thought of the woman Chiharu Ishizaki.
That rainy night, when Chiharu Ishizaki went to find Rila Kotake, he took a taxi there.
That night, it seemed to be raining red and misty like tonight.
That night, the car stopped at the door of Rila Kotake's apartment. Saburo Uraga and Shoichi Kubo were waiting in the shadow of a corner of the apartment wearing caps and masks. The camera at the door of the apartment was destroyed in advance.
I have to say that Rila Kotake was also very cooperative. The time she called her best friend was already close to 11 o'clock in the evening. When Chiharu Ishizaki arrived, it was almost twelve o'clock. The door of the apartment was extremely deserted, and no one came in or out for a long time.
Everything was prepared perfectly.
Chiharu Ishizaki got out of the car and the taxi left.
She just had time to open the umbrella, and before she had taken a few steps, Kubo Shoichi surrounded her from behind and covered her mouth with a cloth. Soon, Ishizaki Chiharu fainted.
The two of them took Chiharu back to Uragezaburo's house. Halfway through, Chiharu suddenly woke up as expected, and then bit him hard on Uragezaburo's neck.
The wound has not healed yet, leaving a scar. Fortunately, it was not bitten on the face. But that bite made Saburo Uragashi feel something he had never experienced before...
In order to avoid more trouble caused by the exposure of the matter, Uragusaburo and Kubo Sho took care of Chiharu's body as they had done before. Until the moment when the body was thrown away, Uragusaburo still felt a little regretful——
Maybe because they were too excited, the two of them moved too quickly. It would be better to lock Qianharu in the basement of the house... That way, the happiness could last longer.
Everything after that was left to my father and mother to handle.
Uragusaburo could also see that his father and mother were very dissatisfied with his behavior, but who made them, as fathers and mothers, absent most of the time when Uragusaburo needed the most care in his childhood? Taught him like this
A cynical son is a given.
Then just hold on to this guilt and repay it for the rest of your life.
Outside the car window, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, even heavier than the night Chiharu died.
The driver turned on the radio and what was playing was "It Rains Again in Nagasaki Today"——
【明も情も世てたのに,
Give up life and love...]
What kind of bullshit song is this... What is love? Can you give up life casually? It's hard to live this time, why don't you live a more exciting life, why don't you enjoy it?
Uragisaburo really looks down on those men who are willing to live and die for love, women, etc.
For example, Chiharu's boyfriend, in order to avenge Chiharu, almost rushed into the police station and killed the scapegoat that Saburo's mother spent a lot of money to find. But instead of killing the scapegoat, he got involved himself... He was so naive and stupid.
You can't find the right person to take revenge on.
You only live once.
How should you spend your only one life? You must be crazy and enjoy it to the fullest. After this incident is over, Uragusaburo plans to find another suitable prey... Just like Chiharu, he must resist in a very real way.
【ああNagasakiながさきは天きょうも雨あめだった
It also rained in Nagasaki today...]
"Wait...why on earth was I in a taxi?
I seem to have forgotten something...I have forgotten something."
Uragisaburo felt that some things were running around in his mind, but he just couldn't see clearly.
Suddenly there was an extra person in the passenger seat of the car.
"Hello!"
Uragisaburo was angry, "I finally took a taxi once, why should I share a taxi with others? What on earth did you do as a driver? I'll pay twenty times the taxi fare to drive this guy out!"
The passenger in the co-pilot turned his head, his mouth was cracked from the corners to his ears, and dozens of sharp teeth were stained with blood...
