"At around 2:10 p.m. today, a second-year girl from a metropolitan high school living in the city fell from the roof of Building No. 4 of the Wujo Building, seriously injured her body, and subsequently died, bringing the number of suicides in the Wujo Building to four. As always, no suicide note was found at the scene. While the police are investigating the victim's past actions, they are also asking his parents and friends about whether he had any troubles or troubles・・・・・・"

"So it's already the fourth. ”

While drinking coffee, Aozaki orange made his own comment on the news.

"It's time for the world to discover the connection. ”

The two ceremonies leaning against the wall looked at Aozaki Orange suspiciously: "Relevance?"

"Yes, relevance. Or do you have something in common?"

Putting down the cup in her hand, Aozaki Orange explained to the two ceremonies: "The girls who committed suicide are all from different schools, they don't know each other, they are all obedient girls who don't have any problems in their private lives, and their families don't have any clue about their suicides. The police also failed to notice the common denominator. ”

"Suicide note?"

"That's smart. ”

For the sensitivity of the two ceremonies, Aozaki Orange did not hesitate to give praise.

"Anyway, it's a death, it's better to pick a way to die that doesn't cause trouble to others, which contradicts suicide by jumping off a building. I see・・・・・・"

Smiling slightly, Aozaki Orange continued to explain: "If you have no nostalgia for the present world, there is no need to disclose your death to the world. In contrast to not leaving a suicide note, which means not expressing any opinion, simply disappearing, the way of death is so compelling, that the event itself is like a suicide note. But they just jumped off without leaving a last word. ”

"What do you mean ・・・・・・"

"They didn't want to die, just like they were going out to go shopping, but unfortunately they were in a car accident, this is what Gan Yejun said. ”

Pointing to the man who had been sitting on the sofa, Orange Aozaki said.

"That guy?"

The two ceremonies turned their heads to look at Kuroki Kanya, who had been silent on the sofa, and was a little surprised.

"But he couldn't figure it out anyway, he just went to buy something, why did he jump from the building? ”

At this moment, the two ceremonies didn't notice the meaning of Aozaki Orange's words at all, and left directly, she planned to stop by when she was on a night trip.

The next day, when I came to the two ceremonies of [Jialan Hall], I saw the news of jumping off the building again.

"This is already the fifth jumping incident in the Wujo Building, the deceased was a second-year girl studying in the city's high school, and like the previous four incidents, there was no trace of an altercation at the scene・・・・・・

Aozaki Orange lit the cigarette in her hand and sighed: "How long will it last・・・・・・"

"There were only seven jumping incidents, and they won't happen for the time being. ”

The words of the two ceremonies made Aozaki Orange turn her head to look at her.

"Huh?"

"Seven people, seven people floating there. ”

For the words of the two rituals, Aozaki Orange is not surprised, after all, the two rituals themselves are demonic, and it is normal to be attracted by anomalies.

"You've been to the Witch Strip Mansion?"

"Hmm. ”

"I'm interested. ”

"What the hell is that place? ”

Standing up, Aozaki walked to her desk and answered questions about the two ceremonies.

"Built in the 70s as a symbol of the city, the building attracted a large number of tourists due to its height and observation room, but now it is a dilapidated building that was scheduled for demolition many years ago, but it has only recently been completely cleared. ”

"I don't mean that. ”

"How can I say it... Time seems to have been distorted, or the order has been reversed, and people's memories... No, record. Time flowed very slowly only on the record side of the building, and the records of their lives had not yet caught up with their own time. As a result, only the memory is alive. ”

"Even if a person dies, as long as there is a memory in the hearts of others, he will not immediately return to nothingness, just as the smoke of a fire will not disappear immediately. ”

"So what's the matter with poor Kuroki?"

Opening the door of the [Jialan Hall], Shirai Yue walked in from the outside.

"What's going on?"

The two ceremonies realized that something was wrong, and stepped forward to touch Hei Tong Ganya, who was sitting on the sofa in the same posture as yesterday, but found that Hei Tong Gan had also lost consciousness and fell down like that.

"In order to investigate the Wutiao Building, Gan Yejun personally went to the building to investigate, and then that's it. Ignoring Orange's advice, he ended up like this. ”

Looking at the fallen Kuroki Ganya, the two ceremonies were shocked, and they didn't know what they were thinking, so they left here like that.

"Insert a piece of news, another suicide has been added to the Wutiao Building・・・・・・"

"The sixth. ”

"What? Do you want to deal with this?" looked at Shirai Tsuki, and Aozaki asked knowingly.

"How is it possible, this is the goal of the two ceremonies, I have no interest, but I would like to meet the people behind this matter. ”

"Who's behind it?"

"yes, oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, the previous murder case, tears they..."

Thinking that Aozaki Orange might not know Saten Tear, Shirai Yue changed his words: "Asajin Fujino and the others met a magician who called himself [Araya Soren]. ”

Aozaki Orange stood up in shock, and didn't even bother to pay attention to the bench falling to the ground.

"Who are you talking about!?"

"Araya Zonglian, what's the matter, it's familiar?"

Lighting a cigarette again, Aozaki Orange breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course it's familiar, my old classmate, it's really familiar and can't be more familiar." ”

"If it's behind his back, it seems to be a bit of trouble, so what are ・・・・・・ going to do?

"What do you say? How could it be the same, his goal is the Root, my goal is the Two Rituals, I just want to ask a question, it should be said that his actions are in line with my purpose. If you want to wake up the two rituals. ”

Glancing deeply at Shirai Tsuki, Aozaki Orange sneered, "A question? Do you mean your own origin?"

"How do you know? I probably didn't tell you. ”

Shirai Yue looked at Aozaki Orange coldly, waiting for her response.

"Guess it, but yes, I'm curious about what your origins are. ”

"Hmph. ”
