In the data room, Shimizu and Chiba searched for most of the day and couldn't find what they were looking for.

Thea Pester...... Why can't I find it, it's all here. Qing Shui rummaged through the data room, and finally found the information of the last batch of missing people in the corner, but except for the child named Xia, the information of everyone else was well kept.

"Xiaoxue, have you tried to contact the families of these people?"

"Well, except for these four people, everyone else has contacted family members or friends as much as possible. Chiba handed the four documents to Qing Shui, and it was the four people of Hanashima Taki on them, "The information of these people is all fake, and no channel to obtain information can be found." ”

"Someone else will take care of this. Qing Shui took another piece of information, thought for a while and said, "Xiaoxue, come with me to this person's house, pity, you stay here, what is there to discuss with the Second Order." ”

Yagi nodded, and Shimizu glanced at the time before leaving the building of the keel headquarters with Chiba.

"Miss Shimizu, where are you going so late?" asked the guard in a trench coat at the door.

"Go investigate something. ”

"Do you need to accompany you?" The man in the trench coat seemed to respect Qing Shui, and every movement was respectful.

"No need, I've worked hard for you before, how about settling them back?"

"Well, it took some time, but it's done. ”

"Alright, let's go first, and if there's anything going on, I'll inform that guy from Nikaido. Qing Shui took out the car keys in his pocket, and a black sedan in the middle of the parking lot rang twice, "May, we may come back in the morning, remember to help me buy breakfast." ”

"Understood. ”

Following Shimizu into the car, Chiba glanced back from the passenger window, and asked, "Miss Shimizu, is that person new here?" I don't think I had seen it when I came here before. ”

"Yes, he was just found from Osaka last month, one of the two survivors of the 116th Otherworldly Incident, his name is Onishima May, Obsidian's ability can temporarily manipulate people's memories, I asked them to send those parents back, through his hands, they should be much calmer. ”

"Well, by the way, Miss Shimizu just said that Onijima was one of the two survivors of the one hundred and sixteenth time, but what about the other one?" asked Chiba.

"That person, don't mention it, it's just a big lady who can play tricks, I let her stay in Tokyo for the time being, her every move is monitored, and I will call her back if necessary. Qing Shui patronized the matter of Onishima and forgot the destination of this trip, so he slowed down and asked, "Xiaoxue, where should we go now?"

Chiba took out the information, looked at it and said: "Yang Xiaokai, the younger brother of Xia Pest, is not related by blood, is an orphan, and the two live together, but since their disappearance, Xia's parents have moved from Furano to nearby Yawata City, and have never looked for the whereabouts of their daughter and Yang Xiaokai since. ”

"It just so happens that since Yang Xiaokai and Xia Ya are sisters and brothers, they will definitely find their families when they go there. Shimizu stepped on the accelerator and sped away in the direction of Hachiman City.

An hour later, the car drove into the confines of Hachiman City, and Shimizu drove to a nearby rental house according to Chiba's instructions, where it is said that Thea's parents invested all their funds in order to find their daughter and Yang Xiaokai, and lost all their jobs and houses, so they could only live by renting a house here.

"Miss Shimizu, this is it. Chiba walked up the stairs and pointed to the second room.

"Tuk Tuk"

No one answered the door, and it was pitch black when I couldn't see it through the cat's eyes.

"Is there anyone?" Qing Shui knocked on the door, and no one came from the sound for several minutes, "It looks like there's no one inside." ”

"In the middle of the night, who's knocking here?" After a while, a door next to it suddenly opened slowly, and an old woman came out of it, rubbing her eyes and looking at the two people in front of her, "I'm the landlord here, who are you looking for?"

"Are there any other tenants here?" asked Chiba.

"Tenants? Not a few months ago, I remember the last time I rented this place was a husband and wife, the husband was a German, very nice people, but they seemed to have some financial difficulties, they lived on a very poor day, they had neither water nor electricity, and they had very little money other than a month's rent. ”

"Do you know where they are now?"

"That's not clear. The old woman shook her head.

"Mother-in-law, when was the last time you saw them?" asked Qing Shui by bending down.

The old woman recalled for a long time before she said slowly: "It should be in the spring, the two of them came to me to return the house, the two of them have been very thin, malnourished for a long time, and look like zombies. ”

"Did they say anything?"

"Well...... I don't remember much about how long it was, so I don't know where I was going to leave Japan. ”

Qing Shui thought for a while, sighed and said, "Okay, thank you, I'm sorry for disturbing your rest." ”

"It's okay, if you want to go inside, I have the key here, I just don't know if they left anything, since they left, this house has been empty and no one has gone in. ”

"Is that okay?"

"Sure, wait for me a bit. The old woman took a bunch of keys from the wall and opened the door for them, "It's getting late, stay here tonight, and leave the keys at the door, for there's nothing to steal from them anyway." ”

The old woman handed the key to Shimizu and went back to the house.

Turn on the lights in the room, the electricity flashes for several seconds before it comes on, and the floor is full of dust, and you have to clean up if you want to spend the night here.

"Miss Shimizu, why are you staying here, this place is worthless, is it?" asked Chiba as she wiped the floor while looking up at Shimizu standing in front of the window.

Qing Shui lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and said slowly: "Xiaoxue, just now my mother-in-law said that they plan to leave Japan, what do you think a couple who have lost everything will do after completely losing their financial and spiritual support?"

"If it were me, I would probably want to die. ”

"If they are no longer alive, our thread will be broken. As Rei said, the girl named Thea Pest was the only human in the last class who survived but did not return to the present world, which is also unprecedented in history, and I need to keep her alive and learn something through her. Qing Shui exhaled smoke and said as he looked at the moon in the sky.

A few minutes later, Shimizu suddenly found a photo showing a corner next to the cabinet, and she hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the photo that was sandwiched in the middle of the cabinet, which they probably accidentally dropped here before they left.

There are four people in the photo, the couple in the back is Xia Ya's parents, and the black-haired boy standing in front is Yang Xiaokai on the information, the only one she hasn't seen is the silver-haired girl next to the boy, she is Xia herself.

"Xiaoxue, find out the student named Sakuruma Aizuki. ”

Chiba took out a copy from the information and handed it to Shimizu, the name on this information is indeed Sakuruma Aizuki, but the photo above and the silver-haired girl are completely two people, Yagi Rei said that Xia stole Sakuruma's identity, it seems to be true.

"Is it already like a dead heart?" Qing Shui looked at the photo, this photo must be a very important and precious thing for their husband and wife, and now it can be left here, "Xiaoxue, if Xia can come back, try not to tell her about her parents." ”

"Well, I see, Miss Shimizu. ”

"It's useless to stay here, this photo is the last clue left by their couple, it's time for us to go. Shimizu took a cigarette in his mouth, took a lighter out of his pocket, lit the photo and threw it into the ashtray.

Leaving the old woman's keys in front of the door, the two returned to the car.

"Miss Shimizu, what are we going to do next?"

"I said that Xia was with the student named Mu Fengye, and his parents didn't come today, so I thought it was necessary to go and meet them in person. Shimizu drove on the way back.

"But what if we see them, we can't control the behavior of the students in the other world, so it's useless to waste time like this, right?" Chiba wondered.

"No, you can deduce the character of your child through communication with your parents, Xiaoxue, you shouldn't have forgotten what is the most important thing in that world, right?"

"Miss Shimizu is the will, the foundation of obsidian. ”

"That's right, it's that will, if you can meet their parents, you can roughly guess their survival rate in that world. Qing Shui lit another cigarette and said with a smile: "After all, this is my ability." ”

"Miss Shimizu is indeed a natural leader. ”

"If I lose this obsidian power, I'm nothing......" Qing Shui sighed.

Chiba smiled slightly, looked through Mu Fengye's information, and then called someone for now: "Help me check the current location of Hoshino Morieda, Miss Shimizu wants to meet her." ”

"Xiaoxue, why don't you help me find his father?"

"Because he won't see us, if he wants to know Mu Fengye, he can only start with Hoshino Morie. However, Hoshino is Mu Fengye's stepmother, and I'm afraid we won't get anything from her. ”

"Not necessarily. ”

After a long time, Chiba got the specific location of Hoshino Morie: "Miss Shimizu, Hoshino is staying in a hotel in Tokyo now, and he will not check out and leave the day after tomorrow." ”

"Before dawn, visit her in advance. ”
