Chapter 20 The key

"Is that Teacher Xinting okay?"

After a long time, Kumu asked Xin Ting, whose crying had calmed down, if possible, he hoped to let him go.

Xin Ting was holding the dead tree silently at this moment and did not speak.

Xin Ting rubbed her eyes that were red from crying. This was the first time she saw her deceased mother after three years, and she couldn't control her emotions. This statement didn't sound so accurate, because Xin Ting was indeed invisible, but

I can still feel this, but Kumu never thought of it. Originally, in Kumu's inner vision, the meeting between the two was silent and unable to communicate, but now it seems that he is overthinking it.

Kumu told Teacher Xinle the reason for staying here. Teacher Xinle’s obsession has not been realized yet, so he can stay here. It was also because of Kumu’s appearance that Xinle was able to express his request, otherwise he might have stayed here.

Here, until the soul dissipates.

"Did she tell who the murderer was?" Xin Ting asked Ku Mu.

"I have deduced that she has forgotten who killed her." Kumu told Xin Ting truthfully.

Xin Ting told Ku Mu that as long as she could help, she would try her best to help.

"Why are you helping my mother."

Now Xinting is full of curiosity and wants to ask Dead Wood any questions she has.

Kumu also complained in his heart, "Why did you suddenly become a curious baby? There are a lot of questions." But he couldn't say that he didn't want to answer.

Kumu said that it was his desire to help living souls that made him do this.

Xin Ting said yes, indicating that she understood.

After coming back to his senses, Kumu wanted to know what Xinting was looking for. Xinting told Kumu that it was a box that looked ordinary but was actually anything but ordinary. It was originally a commission hanging in the office, but the commission was taken over by someone.

, so Xinting could only take out the box. After the trustee completed the commission and returned the box, Xinting didn't know where to put it.

Kumu opened his eyes wide and blinked, as if to say, are you qualified to criticize me about throwing things away?

Xin Ting will continue to look for the box, and Dead Wood will stay here for a while. The two of them will separate and wait until tomorrow to discuss things again.

After Xinting left, Dead Wood squatted on the ground and began to tap the floor regularly. This was a symbol of Dead Wood's calling to the soul.

After a while, the beggar came in response to the call.

"How's it going?" Now Deadwood wants to see what the beggar has gained.

The beggar shook his head. Not to mention human bones, not even animal bones were found.

Kumu thought that this could at least deny that Xinle's body was not buried nearby. Kumu did not expect that things would develop in a more difficult direction, which meant that Teacher Xinle's body might be further away. There are no doubts now.

Any progress, coupled with the need to expand the scope of the search, will make things even more confusing.

"Can we only use souls on a large scale?" In addition to using souls on a large scale, we also need to ask the souls about their corresponding matters. The souls around the school were three years ago, and the souls around Quanyong Restaurant were one year ago.

, and Kumu knows that souls are not so easy to find. Not everyone can stay in the world as a soul after death. If the soul is no longer willing to help, this will be another difficulty...

Deadwood has no choice. There are too many difficulties now, and it is difficult for things to make progress. The only "person at the time", Teacher Xinle, only vaguely remembers some things. Now the incident has reached a node. As long as this node is broken, things will take a turn for the worse.

Big progress.

The time of the incident is too long, which is also a reason. With the current ability of Deadwood, it can be said that there is nothing that can be done.

Kumu thought about taking a nap first to relax his mind. When he was lying on the bed, he realized that he was unable to fall asleep due to so many thoughts. His mind was full of doubts about how to solve the incident.

.....................

the next day.

Kumu was tormented by his own problems all night. Fang Hua looked at Kumu who was wandering in his dream and expressed his worries. Kumu would leave school as soon as school is over these days. He seemed very tired. Fang Hua felt that besides studying, because

There shouldn't be anything that would make a high school student work so hard, and Kumu's grades have always been very good, so he won't be tired from studying at all.

Fang Hua came to Kumu and asked about Kumu's situation with concern. Kumu looked up at the bald Fang Hua and was still a little uncomfortable. Kumu, who hadn't been cared about by anyone for a long time, also responded to Fang Hua's concern in a friendly manner. After all, being cared for by others, in his heart

Still a little happy.

Fang Hua told Ku Mu that he could share with him any troubles he had.

"Huh? Something happened." Jiujiu's curious ears accurately captured the information and trotted over.

Looking at Jiujiu who came running to look forward to it, Kumu felt unspeakably bitter in his heart. He told them about his superpower first, but it was useless to tell them now. Besides, they couldn't see the soul, so they couldn't be allowed to talk to the soul.

But there is also something to say about sharing the words of friends.

"Recently, I have encountered a problem in my thinking. There are many things. Now the level has reached a difficult place. As long as I can solve this difficulty, I can win a big victory. But now there is no way. What should I do?"

Kumu used the saying that he had passed the game to tell the two of his current experiences. Kumu knew that this statement would be easier to understand for the two game masters.

Both of them smile confidently and confidently. Yugi understands this aspect and it is easy for them to agree.

Jiujiu Fanghua told Kumu, "This is because there are hidden levels, or when you reach the fork, Kumu, you may be too aggressive and go directly to the end of the level. Maybe the clue is in the previous level. Go back to the previous adventure.

Wherever you go, there may be clues waiting for you."

Fang Huajiujiu's opinion is indeed different. This is also the result of many people's thinking. Sharing is indeed wonderful. Now Kumu feels a lot more relaxed. No matter whether it succeeds or not, at least now there is a way.

.....................

After school that day, Xin Ting called Ku Mu to her office.

When Kumu came to Xinting's office, he could only say that he was the chief invigilator. The documents on the table were piled high, and there was only a small space on the huge desk. As a newly appointed teacher, Kumu thought this workload would be

Too big.

Regarding Kumu's question, Xinting's answer was to do more things while she was still young while she had just taken office and still had enthusiasm in her heart.

After chatting for a while, Kumu Xinting and the two officially got down to business.

The dead wood statue was checked again from three years ago.

Kumu asked Xinting how much she remembered about what happened three years ago. Xinting basically couldn't remember anything except her mother's disappearance. But she still remembered what her mother said before she left.

Xin Ting said, "Her mother was very suspicious in those days, and kept checking the situation at home, as if she was guarding against someone. My mother asked me to find someone, who seemed to be her friend, and said that she had a box that could

Help me, I couldn't understand what my mother said at that time, so I could only do it."

"Before I left, my mother gave me a stone and asked me to take this stone to find that person."

Speaking of this, Xinting stopped.

Kumu knew that this person was now the key to the incident.

Xinting took out the box she was looking for and placed it in front of Dead Wood.

The box in front of Dead Wood is reddish brown and consists of three parts, wide at the top and bottom, narrow in the middle, with patterns carved on the four sides, four corners protruding outward at the top and bottom, and a regular cube with a keyhole in the middle.

No matter how you look at it, it is an extremely ordinary box, and there is nothing different about it from the outside.

Xinting continued to say that she went to find the person and handed the stone to the person. The person told me to leave quickly and gave me another black box.

"At that time, I thought something had happened. After doing what my mother told me, I immediately went to my mother's school. Fortunately, my mother was still there..."

Speaking of this, Xin Ting choked up and thought of what happened last night. The dead wood could only be seen. It was probably the last time Teacher Xin Ting saw her mother.

Ku Mu interrupted Xin Ting and asked Xin Ting to talk directly about the following matter.

Xinting wiped her slightly red and swollen eyes, nodded and continued, "I immediately called the police after my mother disappeared and went to find the person my mother asked me to find, but that person was no longer there and had left the original place.

"

"At this point, all I have left is the black box that person gave me."

Deadwood knew that the two boxes were different, but the first box was obviously more important.

Xinting said that the black box has a device that will not be opened until the time comes, and the time to open it was just a few days ago.

Three years later, Xinting finally saw the contents of the black box. The contents of the black box were the location of the red box.
