Chapter 297 The Weird Alien Hall
After two and a half hours of bumpy terrain, the little Jeep finally came to another relatively smooth dirt road.
This dirt road is built around the mountains, with overgrown weeds on both sides of the road, giving it a relaxed and cozy rural atmosphere.
"call……"
After getting off the car, Fujino stretched his waist and let out a long breath, feeling a lot more relaxed.
Two and a half hours!
Do you know how he spent these two and a half hours?
It's just torture...
This time, it was really an old crime.
"It's really hard for you."
Odagiri came over suddenly at this time, handed a bottle of water to Fujino, and said with a smile.
Fujino: "..."
Fujino looked at Odagiri, narrowing his eyes slightly. He didn't know what this guy's "hard work" meant, but felt that this guy was a little bit in need of a beating.
"Fortunately, I came here in a jeep this time. If it was an ordinary car, it would have been turned off long ago..."
Fujino took the water bottle unceremoniously, unscrewed the cap and took a sip. Then he looked at the red jeep behind him and sighed.
But suddenly, he frowned.
Jeep...
Normally, shouldn't you be driving an ordinary car when you go out?
Or is this Jeep prepared by him in advance...
I came here to carry out a murder plan or something.
Thinking of this, Fujino looked at Odagiri: "By the way, did you rent this jeep?"
"Yes."
Odagiri nodded, and explained with a light smile: "I also heard from Luo Ye that the roads in my hometown are bad, so I rented this jeep before coming here. My car is an ordinary family car. I guess we simply can’t afford such trouble.”
"Is that so..."
Fujino nodded when he heard the words, feeling that he was thinking too much.
Encountering homicide cases all day is indeed easy to make people nervous.
Anything can be thought of as a murder case...
"Fujino-kun!"
At this time, Hongye Ooka, who was standing by the cliff looking at the scenery, suddenly shouted to Fujino: "We seem to have reached Liujiao Village."
"It's already here?"
Fujino was surprised for a moment, walked forward, and saw a village in a valley appearing in front of him.
The terrain in the valley is wide and the trees are lush. From the scattered houses, it can be seen that this is a village.
In the middle of the village is a church-style building, centered on the church, and a six-pointed star is presented in the way that the road divides the surrounding trees.
There is a villa on each corner of the hexagram, and each villa is exactly within the small triangle and is connected to the entire village by the road that divides the hexagram.
Except for the trees, there are only these seven buildings in the spacious space in the six-pointed star, while the houses of other people are built a little farther away from the six-pointed star.
The houses of those people looked ordinary Japanese style, which was in stark contrast to the villas in the six-pointed star...
It's like a strict hierarchy, and it feels like the alien house where the 'foreign adults' lived in when they were young...
Judging from the shape of the six-pointed star, it is not difficult to see that this is Liujiao Village.
"Even the village is a hexagon?"
Hui Yuanai followed Fujino, and after seeing the pattern of the hexagram, she couldn't help complaining: "It's really the same name as this village..."
"It should be because of this hexagonal building that this village is called Hexagonal Village."
Ooka Hongye said: "It is still very common in Japan to name one's own village after the characteristics of one's own village."
"But why is there such a thing in the mountains?"
Odagiri Susumu also came over at this time, "Is it to hold some kind of strange mysterious ceremony?"
"You're thinking too much...Compared to some mysterious ritual, I think this six-pointed star is something like a crop circle..."
Fujino glanced at Odagiri speechlessly.
Why do you feel that these seemingly younger teachers are so secondary?
But to be honest, he couldn't imagine who would be so idle as to create a six-pointed star on the ground.
Is it really because of some weird ritual?
Although everything is possible in Ke Xue's world, this is too outrageous.
He felt that this hexagram was probably the same thing as the crop circle, and it was all to attract tourists to the village.
But after looking around, he decisively gave up the idea.
This remote place, not to mention attracting tourists, would probably cost an ordinary person half of his life if he took a single trip there.
…………
After a short rest, the time came to four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as the car drove into the village, it came to the door of one of the villas in the six corners.
It was a three-story villa painted in white. There were four high towers at the four corners of the villa. Counting the high towers on the top of the building, there were five in total.
This kind of building is not so much a villa, but more like a castle.
It's just that this villa is not Luo Ye's home.
Because at the entrance of the villa, it has clearly marked [Pagoda House·Five Tower House].
The car continued to drive towards the village, and soon came to the second villa.
The second villa is a building similar to a mansion, surrounded by ivy, and the introduction of the house number is [Ivy Kusanagi's house], but it is not Wakaba's house.
Moving on, soon, the group came to the door of another villa.
This villa is [Kai Zhi Guan Kabuto's House]. Although there are two mighty armors holding spears and shining silver light at the door, and there are many crows perched on the roof, compared to the previous two villas, It's obviously much simpler.
Fujino discovered some patterns in the names of these villas.
That is, the name of each villa is related to the theme of the villa.
In addition, there is a hexagram hanging at the door of each villa, and one corner is missing.
The first villa is missing the upper right corner, the second villa is missing the lower right corner, and this one is missing the lower corner.
From a regular point of view, the disappearing corner should correspond to the location of the villa.
It is indeed a very subtle means of guidance.
It just made him feel a little inexplicable.
"By the way, where is Ruoye's home..."
Oda Kirito parked the car at the door of Kaizhikan, and scratched his head impatiently.
Fujino glanced at his impatient look, but he could understand...
After all, it is normal for my girlfriend to be anxious when she is about to get married.
It’s just that the groom is not himself.
Looking away, Fujino asked Ooka Hongye: "Speaking of Hongye, does Ruoye have more detailed location information besides the map of Liujiao Village in the invitation she sent you?"
"Nothing."
Hongye shook her head, and took out the invitation card from her pocket: "On the invitation card, she just said that her home is in the Clock House, but she didn't have a specific location."
"The Hall of Time?"
Fujino thought for a while, and continued: "If it is named after the pavilion, then her home should be in one of these six villas... I think I can find someone to ask the location of the Clock Pavilion, so I can be prepared."
"Well, I think so."
Hui Yuanai nodded and agreed: "It's not a way to find them one by one." "Is there anyone here?"
Odagiri was the first to get out of the car and yelled into the villa, but there was no response for a long time.
"Could it be that the master is not at home?"
Fujino raised his jaw.
Speaking of which, they have not met anyone else since they first arrived in this village...
Looking at it in a village, it is really a bit abnormal.
Thinking about it, Fujino turned around and saw a girl standing behind her.
The girl was wearing a white shirt, an off-white knitted sweater, a black skirt, and long black hair with bangs. Her appearance... had a dull and indifferent feeling.
Strangely, at this time, she was holding two black crows in her hand.
What's even weirder is that the opponent's behavior is too ordinary, like an npc in a horror game.
There is a feeling of Chinese horror.
Fujino: "..."
Girl: "..."
Crow: "Cuckoo..."
"Ugh?!"
The rest of the people also reacted at this time, and when they turned around and saw the girl, they couldn't help being startled by the weird atmosphere.
Fujino's mentality is okay, very calm, and he didn't show too much surprise.
After a brief silence, he stepped forward and asked the girl in a friendly tone, "Do you know how to get to Shitian's house?"
The girl narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Fujino coldly. Then she raised her hand that was holding the crow's neck and pointed in one direction.
Crow: "Coo... coo coo coo..."
Fujino glanced in the direction pointed by the girl's hand, and what he saw was the road to the next mansion.
Feeling refers to a lonely.
Can't get effective information from girls.
Helplessly, Fujino and the others could only watch and fumble.
But now that she has pointed out the direction, it is basically certain that the Shitian family is among the six villas...
Although I didn't get the specific address, at least I knew that the other party was among the six villas, which was useful information.
Anyway, as long as it is among these six villas, it is only a matter of time before they are found.
Passing by 【Colourful Glass Pavilion · Isshiki House】, 【Wind Direction Pavilion · Wind Festival House】, a group of people finally came to 【Clock House · Tokita House】.
The architectural style of Shitian's house has the same rules as those of the previous villas. On the roof made of white marble, there is a huge clock inlaid, which echoes the name of the Clock House.
And, on top of the clock, there is a hexagram.
The pattern is the same, this hexagram is missing the previous corner, which is exactly symmetrical with the location of the armored house that just passed by.
"It's still a big circle..."
Odagiri got out of the car, looked at the curved road he just passed, and said speechlessly: "If I had known that this was the Clock Museum, I wouldn't have made the curve just now."
"It's something that can't be helped."
Fujino chuckled, "After all, we didn't know that the Clock House was here..."
With that said, he walked forward and knocked on the door of Shitian's house.
After a while, the door was slowly pushed open a small crack.
A man with gray hair, parted in the middle, and an extremely pale face, even with a strange feeling, showed half of his face.
The man's eyes widened, and he asked the people outside the door loudly, "Who are you?!"
There was a moment of silence: "..."
Except for Fujino, the rest of the people were all frightened by the old man's sky-defying appearance.
"Gui'an, I am Ooka Momiji, Wakaba's classmate."
Ooka Hongye calmed down, introduced himself politely, and then took out an invitation from his pocket with a smile: "We have received an invitation to attend her wedding. Please inform her."
"invitation?"
The man's eyes were still big, and he didn't even blink. He said with a dull and cold face: "You are mistaken, my daughter's wedding is simply..."
"Dad, I called them here."
At this moment, a girl's flat voice interrupted the man's continuation.
Fujino raised his head and heard the sound, and saw a girl with fair skin and short black hair walking towards this side.
The girl's face is indifferent, wearing a blue and green kimono, her temperament has the feeling of a hell girl.
"She should be Tokita Wakaba..."
From the information revealed in the words, Fujino guessed the identity of the other party at once.
But he felt a little strange about the other party's performance.
Although he didn't know the girl named Ruoye, he felt that the girl named Ruoye was exactly the same in temperament as the girl who just showed him the way with two crows.
It's cold and a bit weird...
"I'm so sorry..."
Although the man's eyes were still wide open, his attitude suddenly changed, and he invited several people into the villa.
The decoration of the hall of the clock building is as luxurious as the outside. Apart from the luxurious decoration, there are several maids in kimonos either busy or waiting.
"Ruo Ye."
"Red leaves..."
Ooka Hongye stepped forward and greeted Luo Ye.
But before they could chat more, Ruoye waved to the old woman on the side: "You must be very tired from the long journey, go and rest first... Aunt Xue, please treat the guests who have come from afar and put their luggage in the guest room." lay down."
"Ruo Ye!"
Oda Kirito, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke at this moment, as if he had made some mental preparations.
Ruoye was taken aback when she heard the words, but she didn't reply, she just turned around and left silently.
The surrounding maids were also attracted by this sound, and all turned their attention to Oda Kirin.
The scene suddenly became a little stiff.
"Several, come with me."
The old woman broke the silence, and said to several people: "Miss, she is dealing with matters related to marriage, please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
"But……"
"Let's go."
Fujino dragged Oda into it, and the group followed the old woman.
To be honest, he still felt a little speechless about this Odagiri.
This guy really doesn't understand the situation, right?
Dare to say such things when these servants are still here...
I really don't know that the so-called servants are the ones with the biggest mouths?
Under the leadership of the old woman, several people came to several guest rooms and allocated the rooms.
"Speaking of which, before I leave, I have one more thing to ask you all."
Before leaving, the old woman looked at several people with a mysterious face, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please don't walk around in this mansion at random. If you forget this, or encounter any misfortunes or unexpected things, the mansion will probably take care of you." irresponsible."
