Chapter 298 Xiao Ai's Ghost Story 【2K Plus】
The mysterious old woman in front of me looks to be in her 60s, wearing a blue kimono, with age spots on her forehead, her complexion is as gloomy as that of everyone in this village.
Judging from Luo Ye calling her Aunt Xue, she should be an old employee here.
"Can't you move around freely?"
Ooka Momiji was a little confused, "Is there any inaccessible room in this mansion?"
"Don't ask if you shouldn't."
Aunt Xue didn't give Hongye any good looks, and said in a deep voice: "In this mansion, curiosity will only bring misfortune."
"We understand that you can't just walk around."
Fujino took the conversation and asked, "Is there anything else that needs attention?"
"This... is gone."
Aunt Xue was obviously taken aback.
The host was caught off guard by Fujino's counterattack.
Relieved, she turned around and said to herself: "Since the rooms have been allocated, please check in as soon as possible. Miss's pre-wedding dinner will be held at nine o'clock in the evening, and I invite you to attend it... "
Speaking of this, she still didn't forget to turn her head and reminded her again and again: "You are the first guests to listen to my words, don't forget, don't walk around in this mansion at will, otherwise it will cause accidents."
"We know, Aunt Xue."
Watching Aunt Xue disappear around the corner, Fujino's eyes narrowed slightly.
A villa that cannot be moved around at will, he always feels a bit like the Blue Castle.
Could it be that there are some corpses hidden here?
This mansion is getting more and more interesting.
As for the reason why they couldn't walk around at will, it should be because they were afraid that they would bump into the corpse...
The rules of Ke Xue's world are just like weird rules.
If you ask too many questions, you may become the next victim.
Our little rich woman has obviously never been exposed to similar cases.
As a young lady of a rich family, she has also heard that some families have some private rooms that no outsiders are allowed to set foot in.
Although her family doesn't have similar rules, it can be regarded as subtle.
Just saying it in this almost threatening tone...
It feels a little different.
Thinking of this, Hongye turned around and asked Fujino curiously: "Fujino-kun, do you understand what she meant by encountering an accident?"
"It should be because of Mr. Shin." Fujino thought.
"Because... Teacher Odagiri?" Hongye looked at Odagiri suspiciously.
"...?"
Odagiri was a little confused.
What does it matter to me?
"I think the reason why Aunt Xue said such things is because she is afraid of Mr. Odagiri and secretly meeting Ruoye..."
Fujino sighed and explained: "The cold attitude of the people in the village should be the same. After all, many people should already know about his affair with Ruoye."
"So that's how it is..."
Hongye thinks Fujino's words are quite reasonable.
Although she is Luo Ye's classmate, judging from the performance of the head of the Tian family just now, it should be Luo Ye's idea to invite them over this time.
In this case, their purpose of bringing Odagiri here is a bit vague.
However, looking in the direction where Aunt Xue disappeared, Hongye couldn't help but murmured: "What a strange person..."
"It should be said that the people in this village are very strange."
Hui Yuanai suddenly said something, which attracted Hongye's gaze: "Strange?"
"Don't you find it strange that there is such a huge mansion in such a remote village?"
Hui Yuanai folded his arms around his chest and looked around: "If I remember correctly, this kind of old mansion built in the village should be the so-called Alien Mansion."
"The Hall of Foreigners?"
Hongye murmured, "Probably during the Meiji period, the residence of foreigners who came to the neon lights, but what's so strange about it?"
"Actually, this remote alien pavilion has another name in legend."
"Another alias?"
"I heard that a long time ago, these Alien Halls were built by missionaries who came here from the West, and these Alien Halls are also called Devil's Halls."
Hui Yuan Ai narrowed his eyes slightly and continued: "Those missionaries perform evil demonic rituals here, which will suck out the souls of the villagers living there and turn them into unconscious walking zombies... Maybe, inside this mansion, There are only one or two sacrificed corpses hidden..."
"Sacrificial corpse?!"
Ooka Hongye's face turned pale: "That is to say, what does it mean to encounter an accident, that is, if you accidentally find a corpse, you will be killed and silenced?!"
"It should be the obvious meaning."
Hui Yuanai nodded meaningfully, looked at Ooka Hongye's frightened look, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"No wonder Ruo Ye seems to have changed into a different person. If so, wouldn't her soul have been sacrificed?!"
Ooka Hongye swallowed, feeling a chill down her spine.
Fujino: "..."
I didn't expect the little rich woman to be afraid of ghost stories...
But it’s no wonder Hongye is scared.
After all, Hui Yuanai's ghost story is too true.
It even made him a little suspicious whether this village was really carrying out some ulterior sacrificial ceremony.
…………
It was getting dark and the lights in the guest room were on.
After putting away his luggage, Fujino sat on the sofa after some simple repairs, and began to think about all the strange things he encountered after arriving in this village.
Ever since he entered the village, he always felt that something was wrong.
A mansion where you can't walk around at will, a village full of weird atmosphere, and a famous detective invited to the wedding.
No matter how you look at it, all the elements of murder are alive...
If it were Conan, he would go out to explore tonight, and then discover some ulterior secrets, and then staged a thrilling escape from a small village, and kicked a Western missionary with his football shoes.
But Fujino is not a Shinigami elementary school student.
If a person came here today, he might still get to the bottom of this matter.
But unfortunately this system task cannot be triggered...
The main purpose of his coming this time was to protect Hongye's personal safety.
After all, she was the little rich woman who paid 200 million yen. It is better not to involve her in such a dangerous matter.
…………
The rooms in the mansion are quite luxurious.
There is a dressing room, bedroom, and living room in the room, which can be said to be a separate building.
Perhaps the only thing that is a little incomprehensible is that there is no bathroom.
In fact, think about it.
This villa looks very old. In those days, a separate toilet in the room would probably kill people...
Hui Yuan Ai put on a pair of light pajamas and walked out of the changing room.
In a blink of an eye, she noticed Fujino who was sitting on the sofa, thinking about something.
Haibara Ai:"……"
Could it be that she was thinking about the ghost story she just told?
That ghost story was fabricated purely to tease that woman.
Although there are some realistic elements in it, it is also fabricated...
She felt that with Fujino's reasoning ability, she shouldn't believe it.
Maybe……
Hui Yuanai adjusted the light pajamas, and buttoned the unbuttoned collar: "Are you thinking about that incident just now?"
"Ah."
Fujino retracted his thoughts and said, "I feel like this village is a little weird."
'Do you really believe it? '
Hui Yuanai was surprised, "That's just a ghost story I made up temporarily..."
"What I mean by strange is not the weirdness, but the atmosphere..."
Fujino said solemnly: "This village is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface. Perhaps there may be some ulterior secret hidden behind it."
"A dark secret?"
Hui Yuanai thought for a while: "Do you want to investigate?"
"just forget it."
Fujino shook his head: "After all, you and Miss Hongye are by your side, if you encounter any danger, you will be in trouble."
"Um……"
Hui Yuan Ai nodded and felt his heart warm.
Although Miss Hongye made her feel a little sour, but Fujino's style is indeed like this.
Whatever you do, you will think about the people around you first, and you would rather be in jail than put the people around you in danger.
Perhaps, this is the biggest difference between him and those dumb detectives.
"Dong dong!"
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Please come in!"
Fujino just responded, raised his head, and his eyes gradually became a little confused.
The person who opened the door was Ooka Momiji.
At this time, she was wearing a pink pajamas, the light and soft fabric wrapped her whole body, which outlined her proud figure, especially her breasts which were propped up high...
Although it is impossible from the material point of view, it still gives Fujino a feeling that the buttons may pop out in the next second.
"Cough hum!"
At this moment, Hui Yuan Ai suddenly coughed lightly, and kicked Fujino's calf with her little foot.
Fujino's thoughts were successfully brought back by this kick.
Ooka Momiji's face was a little flushed, and he hesitated and said: "Um, Fujino-kun, can you accompany me for a while?"
Fujino: "...?"
Haibara Ai:"……??!"
…………
The Clock Mansion is a relatively old mansion.
Since it was built a long time ago, there are not many electric lights in the mansion. Most of them are still kerosene lamps, but they are not lit.
On the way back from the bathroom, Fujino walked in front holding a flashlight to illuminate the road in front of him, while Xiao Ai and Hongye followed behind.
Ooka Hongye's face was flushed, she lowered her head and dared not raise her head.
It's too embarrassing for someone to accompany me to the bathroom...
Haibara Ai looked at Ooka Hongye speechlessly. For a moment, she didn't know whether this was the plot of a bad woman, or whether this woman was really that weak.
Isn't it just being threatened that you will die if you walk around casually?
It's not a big deal...
Fujino is more transparent.
From his point of view, someone might actually die he wasn't worried about it.
Although the buff stack is full, it stands to reason that as long as you don't run around or trigger any outrageous mechanisms, there is a high probability that you will be able to get through tonight safely.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!"
At this time, a strange voice suddenly came from behind him.
Fujino turned his head, and saw a pair of shining eyes suddenly bursting out from the darkness.
Subconsciously, he grabbed Xiao Ai with one hand and Hongye with the other, dodged to the side, leaned against the wall beside him, and avoided the weird thing.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be just a black cat.
By the way, why does the black cat make such a sound?
Fujino was speechless for a while.
But before he could recover, the white wall suddenly flipped over, dragging him and the two into a dark room.
…………
It rolled around in the dark space for about a few seconds.
"boom!"
Accompanied by a muffled sound.
Fujino felt as if his back had hit the wall, forcing him to stop.
Before he could calm down, waves of stinging pain shot through his body.
This tingling sensation reminded him of the memory of the last car accident...
Fujino took a deep breath and suppressed the pain.
Then, I felt a strange pressure in my chest.
Fujino didn't think too much, endured the severe pain, and took out the divine light from the portable space.
The divine light stick illuminates the dark space.
The first thing you see is a secret room made of cement.
The entrance to the secret room is a flipped mechanism wall entrance.
The entrance to the wall is preceded by a long concrete staircase with sharp edges.
Judging from the visual height, it is about seven or eight meters high.
The three people who accidentally slipped and fell from above just rolled down the stairs.
After confirming the surrounding environment, Fujino lowered his head and saw Haibara Ai and Ooka Momiji lying in front of him facing each other.
The two closed their eyes, hugged Fujino tightly, and their breathing was still steady.
As for that soft and oppressive feeling...it was caused by Ooka Momiji.
Although the facts were right in front of him, Fujino couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth invisibly, and he couldn't help but flash in his mind:
"Is this really the kind of body a 17-year-old should have?"
"This little rich woman is a little outrageous..."
"I'm afraid I lied about my age or something"
Thoughts like the above.
Judging from his feelings, Fujino felt that the little rich woman in front of him should be at the level of Belmode.
But after thinking about it for a while, I feel that Belmode doesn't seem to be outrageous...
This can't help but make him secretly sigh in his heart: both are 17 years old, why is the gap so big?
(Shira Masumi: Scold again!)
After withdrawing his thoughts, Fujino felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, he was a normal person, he couldn't bear the excitement.
He struggled to prop up his body, gently pushed the two of them away, and placed them aside.
At this time, Ooka Momiji and Haibara Ai's pajamas were a little messy, and they were vaguely stained with some blood. One or two buttons of Momiji's pajamas were even broken.
But the blood was not theirs, but Fujino's.
Fujino fastened the two buttons that were broken, and after a brief observation, he was able to confirm that, being a doctor, there were no other injuries on their bodies except for the slight scratches on Hongye's feet.
Seeing that the two of them just passed out from the impact, Fujino couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and then leaned limply against the 'wall' behind him.
This was thanks to the quick response of Fujino, who subconsciously hugged the two of them into his arms at the moment of the fall, and used his body as a meat shield to protect them.
But as a meat shield, he is even more miserable.
Holding two people in his arms, he tumbled down the concrete stairs with dozens of steps of stairs seven or eight meters high, and he alone withstood all the impact of the other two.
At this time, he was covered with bruises and small wounds all over his body, and the stinging pain also came from those wounds.
Some of the wounds were deep, and blood was still oozing out, staining the white shirt red.
Judging from the pain, it was impossible to tell how serious the injury was or whether there was internal injury.
"This time, the fall was worse than the last car accident..."
Fujino was short of breath, took out [Fatboy Happy Water] from his portable space and drank a couple of sips, looked at his injuries, leaving a trace of cold sweat on his forehead.
But after thinking about it, he was already very satisfied.
Hugging two people, the weight of nearly 100 jin rolled all the way down from such a high place. If it was changed to the previous physique, it would be cold...
Although the injury cannot be determined immediately, at least there is no fracture, which is already a blessing in misfortune.
Despite his remarkable self-healing abilities, a broken bone would limit his mobility for a period of time.
After about a few minutes, Fujino gradually got used to the pain in his body.
At this time, Ooka Hongye slowly opened his eyes.
She covered her head and slowly stood up, feeling a little dazed.
Relieved, she noticed the injury on Fujino's body at a glance.
Just when he was about to say something, his eyes were attracted by the 'wall' behind Fujino.
Immediately, her complexion turned pale, and immediately, she let out a piercing scream: "Ah——!"
Hui Yuanai was also awakened by this scream.
She just stood up and looked at the 'wall' behind her, and she couldn't help but frown, her complexion became a little ugly.
Fujino looked at the two people with pale faces and was stunned.
He supported his body full of scars, just stood up, turned his head, looked at the 'wall' behind him, and his face froze.
What kind of wall is there? It's clearly a sarcophagus without a lid!
Inside the sarcophagus, lay a figure quietly.
It was a headless, charred mummy!
Fujino stared at the mummy in front of him, his face gradually darkened.
Sure enough, no matter what happens today, there is no escape...
This kind of mummy hidden in the basement is a bit outrageous.
Is it really like what Xiao Ai said, this Yiren Mansion is a demon house used by missionaries to sacrifice villagers?
Prophet, the knife!
"A new detective special job task has been detected, please pay attention to check it!"
Just as Fujino was thinking, a system prompt sounded in his ears suddenly.
Fujino was stunned when he heard the sound, and a light curtain appeared in front of him:
【Detective Special Occupation Mission: Secrets Hidden in Liujiao Village
Mission introduction: Strange mummy, strange village, old mansion, what kind of truth is hidden behind everything?
Mission goal: Uncover the secrets hidden in Hexagonal Village
Mission reward: 400 million yen · [-] detective reputation points
Task limitation: None]
The secret behind Hexagon Village?
Although it is Ke Xue, is it a bit too outrageous?
And the reward is actually 400 million yen...
This reward is so rich that Fujino doubts whether the whole village is involved in it...
"who!"
At this moment, the trap door on the wall was suddenly opened, and a figure looked straight at Fujino and the others with a flashlight.
Fujino turned his head, and through the strong light through the vision-enhanced glasses, he recognized the figure.
It was none other than Tokita Ruoye’s father, Tokita Shisan.
Fujino narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Tokita Shisan with a gloomy gaze.
Shi Tian Shisan's expression was also a little gloomy. He glanced at the few people and shouted casually: "What are you doing here?!"
Fujino: "..."
Look at the injuries on my body, what else can I do?
"We lost our way when we came back from the bathroom. We accidentally ran into a black cat. We were so frightened that we leaned against the wall and fell into it..."
Fujino's state of mind was unusually calm, staring at Tokita Shisan, rolled up his cuff buttons, revealing his bloody arm full of scars.
"So this is ah……"
Tokita Shisan's expression suddenly calmed down again.
The kindness was even a little scary, and he walked down slowly: "In this case, I will take you back. I am so sorry...to make you suffer such serious injuries."
"Then trouble you..."
Fujino watched Tokita Shisan's movements, and walked forward slowly, with a smile on his face.
At the same time, one hand was hidden in his pocket, ready to use an enhancement card at any time, or pull out a pistol.
According to the normal situation, at this time, the other party should make a move...
Damn it, could it be that he was possessed by a elementary school student from the god of death?
Why do you encounter this kind of thing every time you go to the toilet?
He was certain that Tokida Shisan was a little fishy.
He dare not estimate the combat power of the murderer in the world of Ke Xue. With his physical combat power, he can definitely overwhelm the opponent with full power + golden enhancement card.
But what I was afraid of was that the other party took out a pistol from his pocket...
No matter how skilled he is, he is afraid of pistols. In the case of long distances, his shirt does not have a good bulletproof effect. If he is shot, he will be disabled even if he is not dead.
At that time, only guns can be used...
It doesn't matter even if he is exposed in front of Hong Ye and Xiao Ai.
As long as it keeps them both alive...
Fortunately, until the end, Tokita Shisan had no intention of doing anything.
Fujino deliberately followed Tokita Shisan and slowly returned to the guest room.
Ooka Hongye and Haibara Ai were also aware of the situation in front of them, so they didn't dare to say anything, but silently followed Fujino, looking at the wound on Fujino's body with distress.
…………
"The injuries on your bodies don't matter, right?"
At the door of the guest room, Tokita Shisan's face was still kind, and he asked Fujino: "Do you need me to bring you a medical kit?"
"No need... I really trouble you."
Fujino responded with a few simple sentences, and then dragged Haibara Ai and Ooka Momiji back to the room.
After returning to the room, Fujino directly locked the door. Hearing the footsteps outside the door gradually going away, he breathed a sigh of relief and sat limply on the ground.
Seeing the scars on Fujino's body, Ooka Hongye immediately squatted down, just about to reach out, but suddenly stopped, tears streaming down his eyes uncontrollably.
"do not Cry……"
Fujino sighed helplessly, "I'm not dead yet."
"How are you feeling?"
Hui Yuanai was much calmer, and asked about the injury with a worried face.
It's not that she is unreasonable, but as a science and engineering girl, she understands the current situation, and it is useless even if she is sad.
