Takeshi Nanahara's living room was originally very shabby, with only a few simple pieces of furniture, but now a famous painting worth tens of millions of yen was suddenly hung on the wall, and the style has really improved a lot.
Well, at least that's how Qingmi Ruri felt. She ate one more bowl of rice than usual. It was definitely not because the Spanish ham and cheese roll made by Takeshi Nanabahara was so delicious.
To be honest, her appetite has improved significantly since she started working with Takeshi Nanahara. She used to eat just one bowl for dinner at home, but when she came to Takeshi Nanahara, she started with three bowls. She ate four bowls tonight and still has some cravings.
, I just didn’t have the nerve to scrape the bottom of the pot, so I had to forget it.
She ate very comfortably, and after clearing the table, she went with Takeshi Nanahara to maintain her health and drink digestion tea. She was too lazy to move, holding an exquisite celadon tea bowl and humming quietly, when a knock on the door suddenly sounded, ruining this rare leisure time.
time.
She murmured, got up and went to the entrance hall. After looking through the peephole, she quickly opened the door and said excitedly: "Ms. Nakano, is there another murder?"
Nakano Eri adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses and flashed a speechless white light. She was a little confused about the weird mentality of Qingjian Ruri, a JK with a 90-point appearance, who looks forward to the dead every day. This hobby is too special.
She was silent for a while and said directly: "No, I have some personal matters and I want to meet Nanabahara-san." Then she turned sideways, revealing the person behind her, and introduced, "This is my friend Mariko Aikawa."
Mariko Aikawa is a college classmate of Eri Nakano. They are about the same age and dress similarly. They both look like female elites in the urban workplace. However, Mariko Aikawa has long hair permed in big waves and looks more charming than Eri Nakano.
Some, more feminine.
She looked curiously at the homely girl in front of her who was wearing a fitted piggy apron. She realized that this was the girlfriend of Takeshi Nanahara who her friend had mentioned before. She immediately lowered her head and said politely: "Kyomi-san, please excuse me."
"Hello, Ms. Aikawa, please come in." Qingmi Ruri is very polite in dealing with people in daily life, and quickly invites guests in. Takeshi Nanahara comes out, glances at Mariko Aikawa, and immediately greets the guests with a smile.
.
The two parties were seated separately. Qingmi Ruri served tea and went through the process of introducing each other. Nakano Eri had a more direct personality and the two parties were more familiar with each other. He immediately adjusted his glasses and said: "Nanahara-san, Mariko... well, recently
I encountered something that is difficult to explain. I had no clue when I was approached before, so I came here to ask you, the famous psychic detective, for help."
She had probably read the adapted special report on solving the crime, and she directly called him the psychic detective. But Takeshi Nanabahara was very shameless and didn't care. He looked directly at Mariko Aikawa and asked with concern: "Nakano
Miss Bichuan is a good friend of mine. If Miss Bichuan needs something, just speak up and I will do my best to help."
"That's presumptuous." Mariko Aikawa politely bowed slightly, and then said hesitantly, "It wasn't me who encountered something, it was my grandmother. She seemed to have encountered... something unclean."
"Oh?" Takeshi Nanahara thoughtfully reached into his arms, took out a folding fan, opened it with a "swish" sound, and asked softly while fanning, "Is it something unclean? What do you mean specifically?"
"I can't say exactly what happened. It's the first time I've encountered this kind of thing..." Mariko Aikawa is also a highly educated person. Although she also goes to the shrine to pray for blessings and draw lots to win the horse, she only treats it as a
I don't believe much in the traditional folk customs, but I don't really believe in gods and ghosts, but now I can't explain what I encountered, so I have to believe it if I don't believe it. Under the conflict between the two, I talked intermittently, and it took me a long time to explain things clearly.
The cause of the incident happened five days ago. Her grandmother, who lived with her, looked very unhappy when she got up that morning and seemed a little dazed. She asked a few worried questions, but her grandmother forced a smile and said it was nothing, but today.
I want to go to the shrine.
She didn't take it seriously at the time, just thinking that the old man didn't have a good rest that night, so he went to work. Nothing happened the next day, and her grandmother's condition seemed to have recovered a little. However, when she got up to have breakfast on the third day, she found that her grandmother
Grandma's energy seemed to be getting worse, so she couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
This time her grandmother was not sure, and hesitantly told her the reason, saying that she dreamed of a man being killed. The man had been pleading before he died, but was still killed. She suspected that she had accidentally been contaminated with "uncleanliness".
"thing", I plan to go to the shrine again today to see if it can be purified.
If that doesn't work, try going to temples and churches.
At this point, Aikawa Mariko just thought that the old man had a nightmare. In order to calm the old man's heart, she took leave and went to the shrine with the old man. She spent a lot of money to beg the guardian to come back to ward off evil spirits, but she still only used it for one day. On the fifth day, her grandmother
His condition got worse. He seemed to be in a severe trance. He said he had the same dream again, and even this time the dream was more specific. He even reported the last names of the murdered man and the murderer - the murdered man's last name was Kameda.
The person who killed him was named Aiura, and he mentioned it during their conversation, and she heard it clearly in her dream this time.
When things have developed to this extent, even if Mariko Aikawa is highly educated and not very superstitious, she cannot continue to ignore it. Otherwise, her grandmother, who has loved her since she was a child, will most likely call her old police officer immediately.
My classmate Eri Nakano would like to ask if there have been any murder cases recently, and if a man named Kameda died.
For Eri Nakano, a senior officer of the Criminal Division, it was easy to investigate this kind of thing. He immediately looked through the files of recent murder cases and found a case from five days ago. A man named Atsushi Kameda was murdered.
In a corner of Furuya Park, the murderer Harimitsu Aiura has been arrested. All the witnesses and evidence have been sent for inspection and he is lining up to go to court.
The victim and the murderer actually met each other. After Nakano Eri and Michikawa Mariko talked about it, both of them found it unbelievable and couldn't understand it at all. After analyzing it together for a long time, they still couldn't figure out what the situation was. They could only make plans.
Asking a professional to ask, Nakano Eri thought of Takeshi Nanabahara.
Even though the old detective Uto Annaji thinks that Takeshi Nanahara is a deceiver reserve, Nakano Eri thinks that Takeshi Nanahara does seem to have some special abilities. So this kind of thing is worse than being familiar with it. Even if Takeshi Nanahara is a reserve deceiver, at least he is. A capable fraudster reserve was no more reliable than finding a strange exorcist, so he quickly brought his old classmate here - this matter had nothing to do with the police station, it was purely her personal matter, but it was still very important. important.
After Mariko Aikikawa finished speaking, Takeshi Nanabahara fanned himself to keep away the smell of perfume on her body, closed his eyes and meditated, and said nothing for a while.
Qingmi Ruri was also confused after hearing this. She felt that it probably meant that Kameda Atsushi was killed and turned into a supernatural substance such as a resentful spirit. He inexplicably went to Aikikawa Mariko's grandma. This matter...
Putting aside the question of whether it is scientific or not, you can just say that Kameda Atsushi wanted revenge after his death and went to pester the murderer, which makes sense, but it makes no sense to pester an innocent and ordinary old lady, right?
She hesitated and said: "Could it be that Grandma Bichuan just had a nightmare, happened to see this case on TV or in the newspaper, and subconsciously connected it?"
Nakano Eri adjusted her glasses, shook her head and said: "In Kameda's case, the murderer was arrested that day, and the motive was just a simple vendetta. There was no news in it. No criminal reporters cared about it at all. The police station only made a brief report, and the TV
It was never published in the newspaper, so I specifically asked the press officer to verify it."
"Then... could it be that Grandma Bichuan accidentally witnessed the murder scene and temporarily forgot about it due to stimulation at the time, but remembered it again when she went to bed at night, so she had continuous nightmares?" Qingjian Liuli thought for a while,
I also came up with a new idea, which I feel makes sense, and is more scientific than being entangled with "unclean things".
This time, Mariko Aikawa shook her head, "My grandmother is over seventy years old. Although she is still in good health and often walks in the town park, she will not leave home alone so far away without saying anything. Furuya Park is not far away.
Our home is more than 20 kilometers away, and my grandmother has not been there for at least several years."
Ah, you haven't been to this place for several years? Kameda Atsushi only died five or six days ago, so you definitely can't see him being killed.
Qingjian Liuli fell into deep thought again, thinking about other scientific explanations, and also proposed ideas such as those she heard from friends. However, Nakano and Bichuan had already considered these and rejected them all. In the end, she could not think of any
It's possible, look directly at the famous psychic detective and professional exorcist Takeshi Nanabahara.
Takeshi Nanahara closed his fan and tapped his knees, opened his eyes and nodded: "Accidental contamination with 'unclean things' is probably the only explanation at the moment. I'll go take a look tomorrow. I'll probably deal with it and it'll be fine. Tonight...
Miss Bichuan, please accompany your grandmother to stay at a relative's house tonight or find a hotel to rest far away from home and see if the situation improves."
"Okay, I understand. My grandma and I will find a place to stay temporarily tonight." Mariko Aikawa nodded and looked at her old classmate again. She still believed in her judgment. Takeshi Nanahara should be more mature even if he is young.
With some real information, he immediately took out a white envelope from his brand-name bag and put it on the table, "Nanahara-san, I'll take the trouble for you to make a trip tomorrow. I'll pick you up after school tomorrow."
Takeshi Nanahara liked this kind of knowledgeable customers. He picked up the white envelope and twisted it. The smile on his face became more friendly and he said politely: "Ms. Nakano's friends are my friends. I shouldn't charge money in the first place.
But our industry has its own rules, so I have no choice but to accept it. I will wait for you after school tomorrow afternoon. Miss Bichuan, don’t worry, and pay attention to safety on the road."
After the commission was completed, Aikikawa Mariko had no intention of staying for a long time. She planned to go home and take her grandma to a temporary place. She said goodbye directly to Nakano Eri and asked her to go back to keep her company. With the development of things now, especially when it was confirmed that a murder had really occurred, she began to be afraid.
Actually, I kind of want Takeshi Nanahara to go back with her to "exorcise demons" tonight, but it's really a bit late now. If the evil spirits are particularly fierce at night, it will be all over if they rush out and beat the exorcist to death. It's better to hide first.
Hide and wait until daytime to talk.
Qingmi Ruri followed Nanabahara Takechi and politely sent them away. After returning, she cleared the table and sat down at the table. She asked Nanabahara Takechi: "Did Grandma Aikawa really encounter something unclean?
"
Nanabahara Takezheng was flipping through some idle books and said without even raising his head: "How many times have I told you that there are no ghosts, gods, and monsters in this world. Most of this happened by chance. I'll probably find out the reason tomorrow.
I'll give the old lady some psychological counseling and arrange a diet for her, so that she can calm down and nourish her energy for a while and then she'll be fine."
Qing Jian Liuli was speechless. What kind of professional exorcist is this? He just accepted someone's exorcism money and said such nonsense. He was blatantly fooling people.
But this matter sounded a bit scary, and it also involved a murder case. She really wanted to discuss it, so she couldn't help but ask: "Then you don't have any ideas now?"
"No." Takeshi Nanahara still didn't care. He had encountered this kind of thing many times before. "I'm not a god. I haven't even seen the victim. What can I think? Okay, Mariko Aikawa can only choose the taste of perfume.
It’s not very good. She probably hasn’t done many bad things in other ways. We can’t exploit her, so this time it’s just hard-earned money. You should be more careful and stop thinking wildly!”
At this moment, he wanted to read quietly and had finished all the housework. Seeing Liuli nagging at the side was a bit annoying, so he immediately crossed the river and demolished the bridge, waved his hand and said: "Don't stay with me after work, hurry up and go home.
.”
Qing Jian Liuli pouted, got up, took off her apron, picked up her schoolbag and left.
Damn it, it seems like no one cares about discussing with you, I will go back and think about it myself!
