After the sudden earthquake in Tokyo subsided and the feeling of the earthquake subsided, Kamiya and Onizuka parted ways.
The little witch went to the countermeasures room first to learn more about the situation.
Kamiya, on the other hand, went straight to Ocha.
When the earthquake occurred, he contacted his family and apprentice respectively.
There was nothing wrong with the house on the other side of Arakawa. The earthquake only affected the water supply at home. The house was intact. The ghost stories who stayed at home checked around and found no cracks.
But the situation at Kanoya was unexpected by Kamiya——
His apprentice has lost contact.
Not only could the phone not get through, the little old man even lost contact with the body No. 3, who was following Xiaolu, the moment the earthquake happened.
According to the little old man's feelings, Clone No. 3 is not dead, and still has a little connection with the main body, but it is very weak.
It's not even possible to tell where that clone is now.
The outer body of the little old man was originally one with him, similar to the consciousness of a hive or a swarm of insects.
Now that contact has suddenly been lost, if No. 3 is still alive, it is likely that he is now independent of his mother.
It's hard to imagine why this would happen.
In the past, even if the little old man's body and clone were in two worlds, the outside and the inside, they would not be disconnected.
Currently, the little old man is trying to use that weak sense to communicate with his clone, but has not made good progress yet.
In imperial tea.
When Kamiyagawa arrived, no one from the Metropolitan Police Department or Fire Department had arrived yet.
Students in the school are being evacuated outside the school, which has been stabilized.
Kamiya showed his Countermeasures Room ID to the security room, and as a member of the Metropolitan Police Department, he entered the campus without any nonsense and without any obstruction.
He quickly found Kanoya's class teacher, Ms. Ikuta, at school.
She is a stern-looking woman in her forties.
The moment Ms. Ikuta saw Kamiya, a look of guilt appeared on her originally anxious face.
"Mr. Kamiya..."
Ms. Ikuta's tone of voice was a little weak. She knew Kamiya.
As Kanoya's guardian in Tokyo, Kamiya met this lady once.
The guardians of other students were their parents and elders, but Kanoya's "older brother" seemed to be a college student, so Ms. Ikuta was quite impressed.
And because Kamiya and Kanoya have different surnames, this lady previously thought that their relationship was that of cousins.
"Where's Yukino?"
"Shikanoya... I'm really sorry. Kanoya-san seems to have been crushed under the gymnasium. We have contacted the fire department and rescuers will arrive soon."
Ms. Ikuta still looked ashamed. Although it was a "natural disaster", students had problems in school, and as the class teacher, she naturally had to bear the responsibility.
Kamiya didn't even reply. He raised his hand to greet the little old man who was following him, turned around and ran towards the school gymnasium.
At the same time, he also ignored Ms. Ikuta’s anxious shouting behind him——
"Mr. Kamiya! It's dangerous over there!"
…
The gymnasium in Ocha is quite large.
When Kamiya arrived here, he only saw ruins.
The earthquake that just occurred did not exceed magnitude five at most. The source of the earthquake seemed to be in Bunkyo Ward, and it affected all 23 wards in Tokyo.
Only a few people were injured and missing, and a very small number of houses suffered minor damage.
And affected the water supply and power supply in some areas.
Japanese law has very strict requirements on the safety of buildings such as earthquake resistance. The "Building Standards Act" stipulates that new buildings must be able to survive an earthquake that occurs once in a century and not be damaged in an earthquake that occurs once in decades.
Seismic strength.
In order to obtain a construction permit in Japan, a construction project must submit a building earthquake resistance report. School buildings are even more stringent, and the earthquake resistance report can often be three to four hundred pages thick.
The gymnasium in Ocha is designed with an earthquake-proof structure, which is to add friction sliding load-bearing seats between the ground and the building. When an earthquake occurs, the shaking ground is separated to reduce the vibration intensity, just like adding a friction-bearing seat under the house.
A big spring.
It is unbelievable that an earthquake of the magnitude just now could collapse such a building.
Kamiya winked at the little old man at his feet, and the latter immediately got into the ruins of the gymnasium and started searching.
Kamiyagawa himself also narrowed his eyes and looked around. He saw some "black energy" that would remain after the ghost stories appeared.
There are strange stories here, and the earthquake just now definitely involved supernatural power.
Thinking about it this way, it is understandable that a gymnasium with an earthquake-proof structure would collapse.
While the little old man was searching for traces of Kanoya, a girl in a sailor uniform with tears on her face stumbled over from behind.
It's Xiaolu's friend Akimichi Nahiro.
Before the gymnasium collapsed, Kanoya pushed her out of the gate, so Akimichi only suffered a little scratch.
Then the building began to collapse, and the girl had no choice but to get up and run away.
Kanoya was in danger and his life and death were unknown. Akimichi felt extremely guilty. She learned that Kanoya's classmate's brother had already left the campus and returned after he came to school.
When she saw Kamiya, the girl just clasped her hands on her chest and kept crying. It took her a long time to say a complete sentence:
"Kanoya-san... Kanoya-san was pinned down because he was trying to save me... Wuwuwu..."
"Yukino was with you before?"
"Well, together." The girl was still sobbing.
"Then what did you see?"
"I saw... I saw... there was a big crack in the floor at the entrance to the gymnasium, and then... Kanoya-san fell down! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Wuwuwu——"
"..."
Kamitani tried hard to stay calm and asked Akimichi a few more questions.
But the girl was already facing a breakdown now, and could only say a few words over and over while crying.
The only thing that is known is that after the earthquake, the deer fell into a huge crack that suddenly appeared in the floor.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Kamiyagawa didn't ask any more questions, and he really couldn't find the time to comfort this strange girl. He just refocused his attention on observing the ruins in front of him.
Later, Ms. Ikuta came and tried to persuade the two of them to leave.
The earthquake has just subsided, and we don't know if there will be any aftershocks. Once there are aftershocks, it will be dangerous to stay in the ruins.
But Kamiya did not listen to the advice and once again showed his identity card from the Countermeasures Room, saying that he was from the Metropolitan Police Department and would stay here to cooperate with subsequent rescue workers.
Teacher Ikuta had no choice but to take Akimichi Nahiro and leave first.
After the two people left, rescuers finally arrived.
The leader was from the countermeasures room, and Kamiya looked familiar to him. He had met him during Operation Yumeno before, and his surname seemed to be Tamaki.
The scene was chaotic and noisy for a while.
Under Mr. Tamaki's instructions, no one disturbed or tried to persuade him to leave Kamiya.
After another ten minutes or so, the little old man finished his work and got out of the ruins. He looked inside and outside the ruins and every corner.
"how's it going?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The little old man shook his head and said that he had not found Luye House.
Kamiya was actually mentally prepared for this result, because he didn't feel the deer's presence outside.
The scouts' careful search only confirmed this completely.
The little apprentice was not under the ruins, she just disappeared.
Very strangely missing.
According to Akimichi Nahiro, Xiaolu should be here. Although the girl was emotional, she didn't seem to be lying.
For a moment, Kamiya had a suspicion in his mind.
Akimichi said that the deer fell into a crack that suddenly appeared in the ground when the earthquake occurred, and it is now basically confirmed that the force that collapsed the Ochanaka Gymnasium is related to Kaitan.
Could it be that Xiaolu was influenced by some strange story and fell into the other world?
But this idea was quickly rejected.
Teachers and classmates in the school still remember Xiaolu, which is not in line with the laws of Shenyin.
"Then where did Yukino go? She still..."
No, she must still be alive.
Kamiya comforted himself in this way and forced himself to calm down.
The deer didn't know what happened to it or where it went.
But judging from the current situation, the little old man's third clone is probably still with her.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the clone suddenly lost contact with the little old man.
They must have been caught up in some extremely weird event together.
And we have just learned that although we don’t know where the clone No. 3 is, it is still alive and still has the last weak connection with the mother body.
The situation is likely similar for fawns.
After exploring the situation in Ocha, Kamiya did not stop here.
He took the initiative to find Mr. Tamaki, who was directing the scene, and left a little old man's body at the scene.
While exploring the ruins just now, the little old man didn't find Luye House, but he found the location where the other five students were trapped under the ruins.
Mr. Tamaki is a spiritual master who can see the little old man without hiding his aura, leaving his body behind to help him rescue those students.
Furthermore, Ochachu was the first scene of Kanoya's disappearance, so it was necessary to leave a clone here to observe the situation at all times.
"Kamiya-kun, I heard that your sister...well, she should be your apprentice, she is also trapped under the ruins. Don't worry, we will rescue her as soon as possible."
Mr. Tamaki may have learned a little bit about the situation here from Ms. Ikuta. Seeing Kamiya's serious face, he offered words of comfort like this.
"She's not here. I'm not sure where she went. Maybe she was influenced by some strange rumors." Kamiya shook his head, "Mr. Tamaki, if there are other discoveries here, please inform me as soon as possible."
After speaking, he turned around and left the scene quickly, walking in a hurry.
"not here?"
Mr. Tamaki was stunned for a moment, unable to realize what Kamiya meant.
Royal tea at home and abroad.
As soon as Kamiya walked out of the school gate, he received a phone call.
It was a call from Onitsuka. The little miko on the other end of the phone spoke concisely and to the point——
"Achuan, there are some clues here in the countermeasures room. It is now suspected that the recent earthquake that has affected the entire Japan is related to the earthquake catfish."
Earthquake catfish, Japanese legendary monster.
The ancient Japanese believed that earthquakes were caused by the underground activities of giant catfish, and this kind of strangely powerful catfish was called the earthquake catfish.
There is a theory that Japan, which has frequent earthquakes, noticed the abnormal behavior of catfish before earthquakes a long time ago and related the two.
So there are proverbs such as "When the catfish makes trouble, there will be an earthquake."
There is also a saying that the Western Han Dynasty's "Biography of Immortals" records: "There is a giant spirit's turtle, carrying the Penglai Mountain on its back, dancing and playing in the sea."
This legend was introduced to Japan, and the "giant fish" was replaced by the "big catfish".
Kamiya: "Earthquake Catfish? Got it, is there any other news?"
Onizuka: "It's all trivial. How is the situation there?"
"I didn't find Yukino, she disappeared."
"No... see you? Do you need help?"
"Not yet. Oh, by the way. Firefly, help me check the information in the countermeasures room to see if the earthquake catfish has the ability to make people disappear or bring people into strange spaces. Also, in the previous earthquakes,
Are there any missing persons whose traces cannot be found at all?”
"I know, I'll contact you as soon as I have any clues. If you need help, I'll always be there."
"Okay, contact me again."
After hanging up the phone and walking a short distance, Kamiya boarded the ghost Mazda parked in a hidden place.
He sat in the back seat and was silent for about a second or two.
I don't know if I am thinking about something or trying to calm down.
The atmosphere in the carriage was extremely depressing.
Dashi and Gaoshan in the front row carefully looked at the boss's expression through the rearview mirror in the car.
The apprentice was missing, and Kamiyagawa showed no obvious anxiety or worry, nor resentment or sadness. There was no fluctuation in his expression, as if he was a third party who had nothing to do with him, and as if the sea was calm on the surface.
All that came out was suffocating calm.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Maybe all the emotional fluctuations were suppressed by him under his calmness.
"Go home and find Xiao Wu."
Kamiya spoke in a deep voice.
Oishi and Takayama are both smart people. The boss came to Ochachu to find Miss Kanoya, who he couldn't contact. Now that he hasn't been brought out, something big must have happened.
Huang Mao Dashi nodded, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the ghost car towards home as fast as he could.
…
The sky was gray, as if there was a lingering haze hanging over it.
Kanoya didn't know where she was now, and there was no signal on her mobile phone.
Anyway, this is definitely not Ochachu, or even Tokyo.
"It seems like I fell into that crack and was transferred to a strange place."
From where Luyewu is now, you can see a dilapidated and old village in the distance, with some mottled, short cement buildings with no aesthetics located among them.
She did not go there to explore, but waited where she was.
First, I checked my physical condition. I found some scratches and bruises on my body, which may have been caused by bumps while falling into the gap, but they were not serious and did not affect my movements.
"So I definitely didn't fall to the bottom. I was probably transferred here during the fall."
In addition, the deer also checked the equipment he currently carries.
Fortunately, she has the habit of carrying her schoolbag with her wherever she goes, and the things given by her teachers and master are always with her.
Moreover, her bag also contained her own water bottle and the sandwich that Prajna Master gave her when she left in the morning.
Stretch the strap of the small bag into a satchel and wear it diagonally across your shoulders.
This way you can have your hands free.
"Little grandpa said that there is danger in that village, and the surrounding area is not absolutely safe." Xiao Lu thought to himself, and continued to organize the equipment, not forgetting to comfort himself in his heart, "Although I don't know what happened, Master
They will definitely come to save me. I have to protect myself before Master finds me."
She should arm herself as much as possible under the existing conditions so as not to be at a loss when encountering any unexpected situation.
The Shengde Royal Incense Burner given by Master is the only weapon that can be relied on at present. It has the double bonus of Buddhism, Dharma, Incense and Dao, so it is in your hand.
The spices given by Teacher Yunju were divided into categories according to the incense spells currently mastered and combined into small packets, which were placed directly on the outermost layer of the schoolbag. When the corresponding spells need to be activated, it will be very convenient to directly take out the prepared packets.
.
The sutra stickers given by Teacher Kanazawa are used to assist in casting Buddhist spells; the broad-leaf bananas given by Master are props for restraint effects. Both of these are also placed in the outer compartment of the school bag for easy access.
"And the gymnastics clothes I changed into...this one also came with me."
Fold the gym clothes, compress the bag containing the clothes, and stuff them into the inner compartment of the schoolbag.
There are also pendulums and tarot cards. The little old man No. 3, who has specialization in perception, is here. The pendulum that sometimes does not work is useless and is placed in the inner space.
"Fortunately, my schoolbag is quite large. After all, it was specially chosen to hold these things."
Before putting away the tarot cards, Xiao Lu also muttered a hexagram to himself.
I drew a card in the simplest way.
Seeing the card she touched, Xiaolu's dark eyes suddenly brightened vividly. She was very familiar with this card——
[Wheel of fortune reversed]
On Ouri Island before, Kamiya drew this card.
"Humph! I am worthy of being Master's disciple." After touching this card, Xiaolu felt inexplicably relieved and encouraged himself in his heart, "Although it is reversed, this is the lucky card that Master has received. I
I will definitely turn disaster into good luck just like Master."
