Chapter 31

As soon as the thought came to mind, the light screen popped up, and the word "Completed" appeared behind the task of "finding out the truth about the haunted house".

Then a new task is refreshed:

[Removing the hidden dangers of "haunted houses"]

[Limited time 47:59:59]

Shiraishi was about to check the details of the mission, but the fox suddenly raised his paw and patted him.

Immediately afterwards, Shiraishi heard the click of the secret door above his head, and then someone stepped into the tunnel, getting closer and closer.

Just as the time for the mask was coming, Shiraishi released the summons to the fox, and then he also released [the mask] and disappeared into the darkness.

A few seconds later, the haggard Mrs. Sugijie walked down slowly, holding a dinner plate in one hand and a heavy silver candlestick in the other.

She entered the dungeon and pushed the dinner plate through the small opening at the bottom of the fence.

Akio Sugie stared at the food, then looked at the locked cell door, suddenly held his head and let out a wail.



On the street about ten meters away, Ayumi Yoshida, who was taken home from the police station by her parents, twitched her ears slightly and shuddered.

She hugged the arm of Mrs. Yoshida next to her: "Mom, there is another sound in the haunted house!"

Mrs. Yoshida smiled as usual and touched her head: "I have told her so many times that it was just a rumor. Ayumi is already in the first grade, and she has reached the age where she should believe in science."

"But, it really sounds like someone screaming."

Ayumi Yoshida was still afraid. At this moment, her watery eyes rolled, and she suddenly remembered a saying that she had forgotten where she heard it before - the best way to overcome fear is to face it head-on.

After her own personal verification, this sentence has a certain truth. For example, after what happened in the library today, she seems to be no longer afraid of the dark.

...Yeah, but I became a little afraid of bad guys wearing masks.

But the bad guy has left. In short, in order to overcome her fear of haunted houses, she should bring her friends and have an adventure here!

The Junior Detective Team has just been established, and it is time to enhance relationships through these activities.

Thinking of this, Yoshida Ayumi became happy again. She took her mother's warm hand and continued walking home, gradually leaving the "haunted house" behind her.



Shiraishi emerged from the ground, moved his body, and headed to the bus stop as if nothing had happened.

It was already dark, and the bus seemed to be reserved for him. He walked to the last row and sat down, turned on the light screen, and checked the new tasks.

The countdown to the task of eliminating the hidden dangers of the "haunted house" is still two days long, and the time is still generous.

Shiraishi thought back to the original work. He remembered that those children who loved to seek death had once explored this haunted house.

The system gives a time limit for the task, perhaps to ensure the safety of the children.

The naughty children are real bears, but in another sense, they are really their own cash machines...

Solving hidden dangers is not difficult, just call the police.

However, in order not to delay him in solving the hidden task, Shiraishi decided to call the police a few hours before the deadline.

Although it will be difficult to obtain evidence after such a long time, judging from Sugie Akio's current situation, he probably doesn't mind surrendering...



The bus drove into Mihua Town and stopped on the street near Poirot Cafe.

Shiraishi got out of the car and suddenly remembered that a customer came to the store during the day.

According to his new clerk, the food dropped during the mission will attract the dead who have regrets in their hearts. As a store manager, what you have to do is to fulfill the customers' wishes and receive rewards.

Shiraishi walked into the store and saw Butterfly Ninja sitting alone behind the counter, holding his chin and looking at Shiraishi with a smile. The customer with long, straight black hair was no longer there.

Shiraishi was about to ask how the solution was going when he saw Butterfly Ninja put something on the table and push it in front of him: "It's done. This is the reward she left behind."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Shiraishi was actually a little curious about the solution, but he still resisted asking and resolutely implemented the principle of "being a reasonable and good store manager" to the end and did not inquire about other people's little secrets.

After all, only if you are kind enough at ordinary times and squeeze your employees at critical moments, you don't have to worry about the other party's minor emotions, which will lead to a decrease in work efficiency...

Shiraishi lowered his head and looked at the items pushed over by Butterfly Ninja.
