Seventeen-year-old Beishan Jinghuang was walking slowly along an uphill road with a schoolbag on his back.
At this moment, there were three girls following closely behind her.
"This guy looks like a dead person..."
"She should have noticed that we were following her, right? But she didn't seem to have any reaction?"
"That's right, it's very strange."
"It's too tiring to walk up this slope. Is her house built at such a high place?"
Kitayama Jinghuang walked to the door of her home. Her home was a single-family two-story house. Purchasing such a large house in the suburbs of Tokyo showed that the economic conditions were high.
She pressed the doorbell. Then the door opened.
The three girls were secretly looking around and murmured: "I heard some strange rumors at school before. The Beishan family seems to be unusual."
"How unusual?"
"Well, there are various theories. To put it simply, if someone is haunted by something unclean, they will go to their family members..."
At this time, Beishan Jinghuang had already entered the house.
In the living room, she saw her mother sitting in the living room.
"Jinghuang, you're here." Mother Yuriko Kitayama looked at her daughter who walked in and said, "Have you successfully asked for leave from the school?"
"Yeah." Beishan Jinghuang nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll go to my room first. I have a lot of homework today."
"Go ahead."
Kitayama Jinghuang walked up the stairs little by little, and at this time, Kitayama Yuriko slowly opened the drawer of the cabinet on the side and took out a hospital examination report inside.
The diagnosis in the report was clear - advanced colorectal cancer.
"I had an operation before, and I thought I could survive for a while. I didn't expect that after this recurrence, it deteriorated so quickly. Now, there is no use in having another operation. But if I want to die, I must not die outside. I must die.
In the family’s ancestral house…”
Upstairs, Beishan Jinghuang walked into his room. As soon as he put down his schoolbag, his cell phone rang.
She took out her cell phone and looked at it. Her face, which had always been as cold as ice, finally showed a hint of warmth. The person who contacted her was her brother Kitayama Jinglong.
She immediately connected her phone, and a video of her brother Kitayama Jinglong appeared.
"Brother," Beishan Jinghuang sat down and showed a rare smile: "We will meet soon."
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, Jinghuang." Kitayama Jinglong showed a smile and said: "Well, if you didn't insist on inheriting the position of the shrine maiden in the family shrine, we wouldn't have to separate the two places. Mom is not in good health.
Okay, I have been receiving treatment in Japan... How is her health now?"
"After having surgery at the end of last year, my complexion is still not very good. According to Chinese saying, it can be regarded as a temporary relief."
"Hmm...Okay, if nothing else happens, we can meet in Morura Town in two days."
Hearing the three words "Senra Town", Kitayama Jinghuang's eyes gradually flashed with a strong and uneasy look: "Brother, actually, even if you are going to Japan to hold a wedding, I don't want it to be in Senra Town.
In the family’s ancestral house.”
"Jinghuang?"
"When I was a child, after that incident, I never wanted to go near that place again. Also, I was particularly afraid of my grandfather..."
Beishan Jinglong was silent for a while.
"Jinghuang, I actually have similar thoughts, but there's nothing I can do about it. You know, this is a family rule..."
"I read the novel you wrote, brother. The reason you wrote these things is because..."
"Ahem, there is no need to talk about these. Since the two places are separated, it is difficult for me to see my relatives in the Beishan family."
"I see."
Even so, Beishan Jinglong could still see the lingering fear between his sister's eyebrows.
Afterwards, Beishan Jinghuang and Beishan Jinglong chatted for a long time.
"Black Will-o'-the-Wisp? Is that the author you mentioned who also writes on Singularity.com?"
"Well, I invited him to come to the wedding."
"That's it, then it's up to you, brother."
While the two were chatting, Kitayama Yuriko was in the toilet, asking a servant to give her an injection.
"Madam, this medicine..."
"I want to support it until my son gets married..." Yuriko Kitayama clutched the corners of her clothes tightly, "This is a newly imported drug from the United States that can temporarily suppress organ failure and other superficial symptoms caused by late-stage cancer, as well as provide powerful pain relief.
Function."
"lady……"
"I absolutely cannot die somewhere other than my ancestral home...and before the wedding, I can't go back to my ancestral home yet. I can only continue to grit my teeth and hold on. Until then, I can't die, absolutely can't die!"
It is precisely because of this latest high-tech anti-cancer drug developed in the United States that Yuriko Kitayama was able to suppress the symptoms of her late-stage colorectal cancer.
"I still don't understand, madam, does it not matter if you die as long as you are in your ancestral home? Frequent use of this drug may further shorten your lifespan."
"It's okay...it's okay..."
After the injection was completed, Kitayama Yuriko finally felt that the pain in her body had eased a lot.
After the pain subsided, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. Not long after she relaxed, she heard her cell phone ringing.
Kitayama Yuriko answered the phone.
"Hello……"
"Hello, um, I'm presumptuous to call you out of the blue. My Japanese may not be very good... I'm a friend of Miss Ninety-nine Green. My name is Ke Yinye, from China..."
"i can speak Chinese."
"Oh, it would be great if you can understand Chinese. Miss Nineteen Green has contacted you recently, right? I found your call record on her phone at home."
"Yes, I have contacted her recently."
"In fact, we recently came to Tokyo to look for her, but we couldn't find her."
Kitayama Yuriko was slightly startled, and then asked: "You mean, she is missing?"
"It seems so from the current situation. We have reviewed the surveillance, and the surveillance can confirm that she entered her home the night before we arrived, and then a very strange thing happened..."
"We just have some normal friendship. I don't know her specific situation. If she disappears, she will be handed over to the Metropolitan Police Department."
"but……"
Kitayama Yuriko quickly hung up the phone and added the number to the blacklist.
At this time, upstairs, Beishan Jinghuang and his brother Beishan Jinglong were almost chatting.
"Well, brother, that's all we talked about today."
"Well, okay, Jinghuang. Tell mom to take care of yourself."
Across the Pacific Ocean, located in China, Beishan Jinglong not long after the contact with his sister ended, he received a WeChat message from Black Willow.
"Jinglong, I will come to the wedding you are going to hold in Japan this time."
Dong Xie, who sent the message, was currently in the apartment.
Grandma's memorial service had just ended and she had been buried. Dong Xie was quite exhausted physically and mentally at this time. Originally, he didn't want to go to Beishan Jinglong's wedding, but Beishan Jinglong later mentioned something in WeChat
It was said that his mother's family seemed to be able to communicate with some "dirty things". But he couldn't say anything specific, and it sounded more like a charlatan.
So, he finally thought about it and decided to go to Japan to attend Kitayama Kageryu's wedding. Even though his mother's family was a charlatan, it was just a change of mood. Anyway, it was a direct flight from K city to Tokyo, but it only took a few hours.
As for the flight, I just went there to join in the fun. It was totally within my time and it was not as far away as Hawaii last time.
From a rational point of view, this business will most likely fail. After all, apartment residents have proven countless times that humans do not have any means to restrain evil spirits. But after all, there is nothing to lose by taking this trip.
For this trip, he decided to go with A Ning.
"I didn't expect to have to go abroad to attend a wedding in such a short period of time. Brother, do you really want to go? I'm a little scared."
"No matter what, let's take a trip. If you can gain something, of course it would be better."
For Dong Xie, the most optimistic estimate is that if he can obtain the ability, or some means, to communicate with those "dirty things", it will also be of great help to the Scarlet Letter mission.
Then, Beishan Jinglong sent the time and place of the wedding.
