Chapter 274: The Ghost Internet Café Incident (6) Ritual (I)
Two forty-five in the morning.
The normal passage could not be passed, so Kurosawa Silver and Aoike could only choose to climb over the wall to enter, and when they stepped on the ground with their feet to observe the Internet café at night, they could clearly feel the difference from the daytime.
At night, the Internet café was gloomy, and the half-open door was like a beast's open mouth, waiting for someone to throw itself into the net.
Kurosawa looked at the door with a frown.
He was sure he had closed the door well when he left yesterday, but now that it was open, it seemed that someone had come in after he and the detective group had left.
Is it Ling Uchiha?
"Kurosawa, have you heard anything strange. Although he was majestic on the way here, but stepping into this gloomy scene, Qingchi was still a little uncomfortable, he reached out and pulled Kurosawa Gin, his expression vigilant.
"All I could hear was the wind and our breathing. What's wrong?"
"But, maybe I misheard. Qingchi shook his head, "I think I heard someone calling my name." ”
“...... It's a veritable haunting. ”
"Don't scare me......"
"I didn't scare you, just tell the truth, follow me, I'm not responsible if I get lost. Kurosawa Silver let out a breath, straightened his clothes, and pushed open the door of the Internet café, "Come on, go and see if the legendary 02 box can print the most terrible thing in people's hearts......!"
An icy, sticky sensation jumped from the soles of his feet, a rancid smell completely different from the day hit his face, the lights suddenly turned on, and a girl dressed casually appeared.
She looked to be only seventeen years old, but she was wearing a pair of untimely red high heels, and she had a polite smile on her face: "Okay, it's eight o'clock, you're too late, right?" as if she was facing some close friend.
"What's eight? And who are you?" Aoike poked his head out from behind Kurosawa, looking puzzled.
Kurosawa hit Qingike's abdomen with his elbow: "Look at us." ”
"What are you looking at, lying ——!" Qing Chi subconsciously wanted to soar a high note, Kurosawa quickly stopped him, and then smiled at the woman who tilted her head to look at them.
After they entered, the door of the Internet café closed automatically, and seven other people appeared beside them, men and women, almost all of whom were seventeen or eighteen years old, but they were dressed differently.
Some people wear school uniforms, but there must be decorations that do not conform to the school rules, such as earrings, such as necklaces, and some simply dye their hair, and the clothes on their bodies are more non-mainstream than the other, and the girl with high heels is the most normal.
There was a boy who wore a small vest, revealing a muscular figure and a tattoo on his right arm.
The most important thing is that no matter what the style of clothes is, they are the style that was popular seven years ago.
Aoike followed Kurosawa Silver into the team and walked towards the 05 box of the Internet café.
Kurosawa ...... What's going on?"
"Someone is recreating the scene of the crime seven years ago. ”
"Holographic projection?" Aoike thought of Ryuichi Asama's technique again, "Or did we accidentally get hit again?"
"The former one could be bigger. Kurosawa Silver deliberately fell at the end, poked the third person from the bottom with one hand, and the finger passed directly through, without any real feeling of touch, "It should be something projected." ”
In the middle of a few words, a group of ten people came to the box with the head of the man with the tattoo in the vest.
Kurosawa was in charge of cleaning the box, so he knew that the machine in the box was the most damaged, a computer monitor was blown up, and a few unburned candles were staggered, and the whole scene looked miserable, but now the box was clean and everything was as good as new.
Interesting.
"Hey, Sakai Shinyong, what are you doing in a daze, closing the door, and you want me to remind you that it can't be?" I was thinking about it, but I didn't expect someone on the other side to raise his voice and instruct people to take it for granted.
Isn't that the cashier's name before plastic surgery? But he'd seen Jun Sakai's previous photos, and there was no one else who looked exactly like Jun Sakai except for Scorpio and him.
Then it's up to some of them to play that role.
I just don't know if this role is played by one person designated by the plot or if the two of them play on their own.
Looking at Qingike, who hadn't reacted yet, Kurosawa obviously didn't expect this guy, and reached out to close the door.
"And turn off the lights. Again, the unquestionable tone of the command.
Kurosawa did so.
Qingchi reacted at this time, raised his eyebrows and was unhappy, and was about to say something but was stopped by Kurosawa Silver, and whispered "Everything here is set, let's take a look at it without moving" and blocked it back.
The sound of crackling sounded and the room darkened, but with the sight of Aoike and Kurosawa, the view in the darkness seemed to them like the scenery in the daytime.
After turning off the lights, the men turned their heads back, and the girl in high heels who greeted them in the lobby of the Internet café took out a small bowl and three candles and placed them on the computer desktop.
A boy picked up the mineral water on the shelf and walked over, poured the water into the small bowl, and when it was two-thirds full, he took out a knife and slashed it neatly, and suddenly a blood mark appeared on the stomach of the index finger, dripping towards the small bowl. The blood is thrown into the water, and the faint streaks of blood are faint.
Next comes the second, the third......
It was the turn of Aoike and Kurosawa.
Qingchi's face was green, and he looked at the knife placed in front of him, his face was extremely reluctant.
The muffled voices of discussion that were inaudible paused, and eight pairs of eyes looked straight at each other, and the sudden quiet atmosphere created a tingling eerie atmosphere.
Kurosawa glanced at the people present and reached out to touch the knife.
Without the touch of air, this is a knife that really exists in reality, even if it was held by a virtual character just now, but now it has become real.
The heads of the other eight turned again, chattering something that Kurosawa Gin and Aoike Kamiji couldn't hear clearly, but could hear.
There is no direct look, there is no silence, but Kurosawa and the two have their own world here, and their expressions are a little dignified.
Exhaling a breath, Kurosawa Silver tentatively touched the bowl and found that the bowl was also real, and the water containing the blood of eight people was so scarlet.
The feeling of dizziness penetrated into the skull, and this feeling clearly told Kurosawa Silver that the blood in this bowl had also become real, and it was after the eight people had cut the blood, otherwise Kurosawa Silver would have reacted halfway.
Qingchi noticed the change in Kurosawa Gin's expression, and after being stunned for a moment, he sneaked to touch the people around him, but his fingers failed to pass through, and he started with the skin with temperature.
Qingchi's face changed at first, then he glanced strangely at the person who was poked but didn't respond, shook his head at Kurosawa Gin, and nodded again.
Kurosawa Silver understood, turned his head to stagger his gaze with Qingike, closed his eyes and slashed at his fingertips with a knife, and the red liquid dripped down and fell into the bowl mixed with other blood.
Kurosawa Silver stepped back, wiped the red color off the knife, and held the knife with his backhand and handed it to Aoike, who took it along with the ketchup bag that Kurosawa had hidden under the hilt, and played the same trick that Kurosawa had used not long ago.
Eight did not exhibit any anomalies.
Only when Qingchi wiped off the ketchup with a wet towel and put the knife next to the bowl and retreated to her seat, the girl in high heels took out a spoon and stirred it in the bowl, and then when the blood was evenly distributed in the water, she put the spoon aside and took a sip of blood.
