Amuro Toru stood up and walked to the side, picking up half a burst candle from the ground.
He took a closer look and confirmed: "Someone has buried explosives inside. If the candle burns down to a corresponding part, it will suddenly explode."... So there are indeed no ghosts in this world.
Apparently, Jiang Xia seems to have the same idea.
——Toru Amuro moved out of the corner of his eye. He turned around and saw that this staunch materialist employee had also stood up.
Jiang Xia passed by him and walked to the posters forming a circle.
Then he stretched out his hand, touched behind the poster stand, and quickly pulled out a length of wire: "There is a loudspeaker connected to the recording equipment hidden in the back."
As he said that, he pushed the poster stand that was shaking just now to expose the bottom: "There seems to be a small motor underneath, which should be the cause of the vibration."
Finally, he walked around the side cabinet and pulled out several reels from the corners:
"This is probably a device used to shake off ornaments - a fishing line is connected to a stand with ornaments on it. When the coil is tightened, the stand loses its balance and the ornaments will fall one after another as if they were hit by someone."
Next to the round table, a group of people gradually showed expressions of "relieved"
Vodka let go of his worries and briefly felt that "Uzo and he were on the same team."
Although Uzo doesn't seem to be shy about attacking his companions - such as poor Bourbon. But I always feel that being a tool who agrees with Uzo is safer than being hostile to him.
But... Vodka suddenly felt a little confused:
It's clear that no one has died yet, why did Uzo reveal his method so early?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Jiang Xia put down a bunch of traps he had found.
Then he looked at the leader of the seance, Reiki Hirasaka, and spoke directly:
"Except for the candles, there are no timing devices on the other mechanisms, they should be activated by remote control.
"This is your mansion, so it's very convenient for you to prepare various props. In addition, it was you who suggested 'holding each other's hands next to each other' to perform the ritual - I remember that there is no similar action in common seance rituals.
Require……"
Jiang Xia said this with confidence, because he was not making it up - during the desolate time when he first came to this world and couldn't find ghosts at all, he actually used a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
I have studied various spirit summoning rituals here with great hope, hoping to summon a ghost... Unfortunately, I have failed every time.
Jiang Xia's thoughts went astray for a moment.
Then he quickly retracted his thoughts. He glanced at the shocked ghosts floating next to him, and continued to finish his words calmly: "You changed the process ritual like this to strengthen the idea that everyone is holding each other's hand, and no one can
Is this the impression that it's a ghost that's causing trouble by manipulating the situation in the room?"
Next to him, Toru Amuro heard this and glanced at Jiang Xia with complicated emotions.
Jiang Xia actually studied the spirit-conquering ritual?
...It's not difficult to guess the person he wanted to summon. Judging from the hospital admission records, Jiang Xia committed suicide with great force on the night when Jiang Xia's parents died in a car accident. Who he wanted to find must be the couple who died in the car accident.
A miserable couple.
But people have to face reality...
Fortunately, Jiang Xia no longer believes in ghosts and gods. Everything is slowly getting better... Toru Amuro felt a little relieved when he thought of Jiang Xia's changes after leaving the organization.
I was relieved for a second, and suddenly remembered that the reason why I was standing here despite the risk of "flat tire" and "encountering an incident" was to investigate "whether Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo", so I quickly woke up and re-examined rationally.
Condition.
…
On the other side, Vodka listened to Jiang Xia's words and secretly touched his chin:
A person like Uzo, who has indirectly taken away countless lives, certainly does not believe in ghosts, gods and retribution.
But he actually knows the process of the seance ceremony so clearly... Hiss, it's real. Today's seance party has absolutely nothing to do with Uzo! He and Bourbon are definitely not just "happening" to be here.
A flat tire nearby.
Based on the above analysis, Vodka quickly found a course of action that suited him.
——Although he still doesn’t know Uzo’s specific purpose, he just needs to watch quietly, treat it as a piece of scenery with a low sense of presence, and swim through the water...
Moreover, I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I have the impression that many of the people who were persecuted by Uzo were handsome men and beautiful women - Uzo seemed to particularly prefer the good-looking group, maybe because he thought this could enhance the stage of his murderous drama.
Effect……
According to this standard, Vodka feels that he is actually quite safe now.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the Bourbon next to him, especially his face.
Then I heartily lit a piece of wax for my colleague T again.
…
The disgraced Hirasaka Reiki stared at Jiang Xia for a while, then sighed as if he was admitting defeat.
He bent down and took out a remote control from under the tablecloth with large buttons for easy blind pressing, and placed it on the table.
Then he said in a calm tone: "The detective's insight cannot be underestimated... Please don't mind, this is just a small test."
A group of people who liked Kira but were afraid of ghosts secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were briefly wrapped up in the idea that "there are no scary ghosts around" and did not bother to blame Reiki Hirasaka.
But there was a person next to him who stood up excitedly.
Kazuo Park Noki, the doctor who was the sponsor of the support club, turned blue in the face and shouted at Reiki Hirasaka: "No, that's not right! The recording we prepared is not at all like this!"
"..."
It turns out there is an accomplice...
The others glanced at Kazuo Parkoki and then at Reiki Hirasaka, feeling that Mr. Hirasaka's "psychic user" halo suddenly collapsed.
Hirasaka Reiki took a deep look at Park Noki Kazuo:
"Don't be nervous, I just suddenly had other ideas. I thought that if I could scare out Kira's murderer in other ways before the official séance ceremony was held, there would be no need to disturb Kira's tired soul...
"It's just a pity that at present, it seems that the murderer is not among us.
"According to calculations, it is most appropriate to hold the ceremony at 5:54 a.m. today. In this case, everyone should go back to rest first, and then gather in the hall at 5:30 a.m. to prepare for the official seance ceremony."
Vodka who thought the meeting would be over soon: "..."
He really wanted to follow his original idea, take the out-of-print signed poster, and escape overnight.
...But looking at Jiang Xia next to him, Vodka suddenly felt that at this time, it was best not to have too many ideas of his own.
Otherwise, when he was trying to sneak out of the mansion, he might be attacked by some inexplicable person, fall to the ground and die, and eventually become the cause of screams in the early morning.
In short, to be on the safe side, before Uzo gives clear instructions, it is best not to make your own decisions and follow the crowd. For example, when you can get together with everyone, you will never be alone...
