"Yikes! This this, this! At some point, Fran jumped behind the two of us, and while Miss Maruko and I were distracted, she stood on the couch and looked at the screen, pointing at the screen and shouting to get our attention. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Sit down, don't step on the bad chair," I rebuked, and when I saw her obediently sitting down, I asked, "What did Fran see?" ”

"Up there!" She instructed me to roll back the page that I had flipped to the bottom, "Stop, that's it!" ”

I read according to the title: "A large swarm of bats has been seen in the urban area for several days, suspected to be caused by illegal development in the mountainous area and ecological destruction?" ”

Out of curiosity, I clicked on the post, and after a cursory glance, I found that the content was basically included in the title, and the urban area was not identified by the poster.

After observing for a while, I found a detail, "This post date was more than a month ago, and there are still people digging graves." ”

"This thing looks a little familiar," said Miss Maruko, "and I heard someone in the department discuss it." ”

"That's a bat summoned by my sister!" Fran proudly declared.

“？” I suddenly remembered the strange story that Miss Maruko told on the day she traveled to Gensokyo, and roughly made up the plot, "So that's what happened." ”

Miss Maruko also recalled: "I remember that I saw a very strange bat when I went to urge the manuscript that night, was that really made by Fran's sister?" ”

"That's right, my sister's favorite thing is to summon bats to play!"

"No, she's just there to keep an eye on the surroundings...... So what about a swarm of bats? ”

"I haven't summoned a bat in Gensokyo for a long time, and my sister is a little unskilled, so I tried the technique first!"

"So the city was flooded with bats?"

"Uh-huh!" Fran nodded proudly, saying that the bat was not summoned by her......

"Then this incident and this poster are nothing unusual."

Skipping this little episode, Miss Maruko and I began to carefully scan each line of posts from the top position, and although it didn't seem too unusual to take out each post individually, as long as we thought that the posters were a group of outliers hidden in ordinary human society, we always had a passion for gossip with great interest.

Isn't it...... Feeling a little relaxed? But it's not good to keep your nerves tight.

Find a post that Ito Xue reminded me in the afternoon that mentioned the extermination case.,Click on it and browse it roughly.,It's no different from what Ito Xue said.,The owner of the forum named "Edogawaichi" claims to have a relationship with one of the families who were destroyed.,This family doesn't have much special place.,It's just that there are some antique treasures such as jade ancient books that seem to have historical significance.,The ancestors probably had a relationship with some hidden families or sects.,But to this day, some records of the ancestors have become bizarre legends.。 The landlord suspects that the family's extermination may have something to do with an ancestral treasure, and the landlord is extremely disappointed that the human police have been unable to solve the case.

Most of the replies downstairs are comforting sentences that don't know the truth or falsehood.,The other few replies are curious.,The most eye-catching or dark-eyed reply,It's a direct accusation that the landlord himself is the murderer of the murder.,But there is no basis for inference in this person's speech.,It seems to be a simple complaint.。

"I have an impression of this murder case," said Miss Maruko, "and the headlines that made a splash a few months ago, but ...... Could it be the work of a vicious youkai? ”

"If it's for someone's ancestral treasure, it's very likely that youkai, not to mention youkai, and someone with a little bit of magical means will make a move, but there are really not many cultivators in the outside world, and I can't judge."

"What about this landlord? The landlord himself should be a monster.,The family that was destroyed is probably an ordinary person.,The response downstairs that the landlord is the murderer may make sense? Looking at the many speeches after that reply, there is also a tendency to identify the landlord. ”

"I don't think it's likely."

Then I found a direct reason that is unlikely.,Continue to turn back and we found that the landlord himself came forward to respond to the rumor-mongering speech upstairs,It claimed that it would send its own real information for the administrator to verify,In order to avoid its own suspicion,And the result is that he sent a hidden message,Reading permission is the highest level,The meaning of this highest level is that only a few administrators of the forum can read,And a few floors later,Sure enough, I found the reply of the administrator of the network name "Branch Director","Branch Director" came forward to confirm the real identity of the landlord himself and made a guarantee that the landlord was not a criminal suspect.

The head of the Forum's Administrator Sub-Bureau, who seemed to be very prestigious, made all doubts disappear with his remarks.

"This administrator's realistic ability and network energy are not ordinary, and the person who can convince almost all the altar friends and monsters definitely has special skills, and he doesn't seem to be one of the founders, a newcomer who joined later?"

Miss Maruko scratched her neck to show her weirdness: "It's hard to tell that this is actually a youkai forum, and all the expressions are no different from humans - but if ordinary people are suspected like this, they probably can't do anything to ask the administrator to verify their innocence, so it's normal to scold." ”

"Well, after all, everyone lives in the human circle, but most of the youkai who have the ability to reason with ordinary people are always more innocent than humans."

Continue to scroll through the post, including the question, the administrator came forward to clarify and other replies were all months ago, and there are new developments in the future, a month later, the landlord reappeared, and claimed to have secretly obtained a physical photo of a friend's family heirloom from the ancestral house at the site of the blockade.

The next floor is the landlord's two pictures.

"What mud!" I blinked vigorously, looked at the picture again and again, and then exclaimed in amazement.

"What's wrong?" She glanced at the picture, "Ancient books with strange cover texts, and jade blocks with beautiful patterns, do you know them?" ”

Not only did I know each other, but I had seen the real thing a few days ago, and I hesitated for a moment and then told her, "I haven't seen the jade block, but those two ancient books that seem to be well preserved are now in the bookstore in Gensokyok." ”

“？”

"Ah, that's right," I explained to her distractedly about the influx of outside objects into Gensokyo, and the pattern mentioned in the general village legends, "so these two ancient books can probably be regarded as strange items that no one knows and they have found their way into Gensokyo, and then they have been acquired by the daughter of a bookstore who specializes in renting books from the outside world." ”

"Is this the script used by some of the more advanced small tribes or remote areas in ancient times? If you lose the main body that uses language, even if you let an expert crack it now, it may not be fruitful," Miss Maruko was quite insightful, "The murderer of the murder case doesn't seem to know the words of the book, so the murderer's purpose may be just a jade piece, but he threw the book away?" ”

"That's all I can think of." After thinking about it, I added, "At present, it seems that the outside police do not know as many clues as we know, and this murder case has a tendency to accumulate unsolved cases for many years." ”
