The eight of us gathered in the classroom, it was a discussion, and everyone had witnessed the horrific scene of Bunna's death, and everyone's nerves were still in a state of extreme tension, and even in the past few days, they still couldn't regain their calm.

There was a disgusting thing hanging from the tip of the stick, blood gushing from the pierced body underneath, and a large area of faint blood in the sand pit, the screams of classmates, the sound of vomiting, the sound of an ambulance, the sound of a teacher talking loudly... Everything is imprinted in the back of my mind, endlessly entwined - indelible. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

I calmed myself down again and again, saying to myself that the scene was over, and that now was not the time to recall the terrible images, but to think about what to do, but even if I didn't want to, the smell of blood in the rain still seemed to waft through the air around me and could not be dissipated.

Just like the day of the accident, it started to rain, and the gloomy sky seemed to be a sign that something bad was about to happen.

We sat around each other, Momoi sat at the desk, and from time to time I watched the view from the window through the rain curtain while waiting for Momoi to speak.

I don't know when the rain will stop—I thought to myself.

The wind blew in with tiny raindrops and floated in my face, and I felt as if I could smell the rusty blood again, and the sensation instantly made me uncomfortable, and I shook my head, trying to make myself think it was my delusion.

It is actually a bit inaccurate to say that it is an "illusion", that scene was deeply engraved into my pupils - her eyes were still open when Fumi Nai stopped breathing for the last time, the corners of her mouth were twitching, and I didn't dare to think about what kind of stumps and severed arms were at the scene of death at the beginning of spring - this smell of blood was not an illusion, but a sign that it would continue, like a symbol that this death drama was not over.

The scene outside the window is blurred in the light of the water, everything is unclear, and no matter how you look at it, there is always a shadow in front of the view.

I don't know if it's my state of mind or...

"Uh... That one... Everybody's called here to say one thing. ”

Momoi sat on the desk and said, the first time I saw him, his expression and language were not determined, maybe this is the other side of Momoi, he didn't have to hold it up when there were only a few of us.

"Two classmates in the class have already had accidents, what do you think..."

"-- It's the lily of the valley puppet."

Before Momoi could finish speaking, Chiba Norishi rushed to answer, and everyone's eyes instantly moved from Momoi to his position.

I once heard Mizuzuzu introduce that the Chiba Noriya family is a generation of shrine maidens, and his maternal grandmother and his mother are witches, and he came to him because he was a boy, so he did not inherit this priesthood, but it is said that he also seems to have learned a lot from his maternal grandmother, such as opening the yin and yang eyes on the naked eye, commonly known as the method of directly seeing ghosts, and more than that, it is said that he will also have a lot of "summoning" tricks.

None of us spoke, as if waiting for him to continue.

Norito Chiba also continued to say, "I asked my grandmother about the lily of the valley puppet, and she gave an answer-"

"Is it some ghost who died a long time ago?" Jin Chuan asked as he trimmed his nails.

"Nope." Chiba Noria shook his head slightly, his expression was extremely serious, and it seemed to have a look of awe, and he said clearly: "Lily of the valley puppet - it's a window." ”

"Huh?"

-- Almost all of them asked questions at the same time, and everyone was surprised by the answer.

Jin Chuan stopped what he was doing, and asked with a look of surprise that was even more surprised than the girl: "Chiba Nori-san, you say be careful, what's the matter with 'a window'?" ”

"Through the window of the lily of the valley puppet, you can see hell-"

"Is it red glass? That window. In a moment of astonishment and silence, I asked suddenly.

"You... Have you seen it? ”

Chiba Nori's eyes looked at me with round eyes, more like saying "You're right" and "You really saw it".

I relayed the conversation with Sister Wen Hui at Wen Nai's house, and everyone nodded. "So that's what happened, so it's the window in the letter from the lily of the valley puppet?" It's still Jin Chuan asking, compared to a few of us, he and Shui Jing are the kind of people who are more talkative, and they will take the lead in speaking when they are there, but Shui Jing may have been stimulated by the accident, and she has been silent since she came out of Wen Nai's house.

"So, if you look through the glass, will you see..."Ji Mei whispered out half a sentence from her mouth trembling.

"That's right, yes, you'll see..."

Chiba Norishi endured the word "hell", and he was afraid that he would be afraid to say it himself.

I couldn't help but imagine what it would be like to receive a letter from the lily of the valley puppet and open the envelope to find that it was a thin, transparent piece of red glass. If you find the words "from here" written on the glass, and sign it "Lily of the Valley Golem" underneath - it will feel very creepy, right? Why don't I feel the slightest? I'm even a little weird, it seems that something is wrong here... Things that seem to make sense are sorted out like this, and I realize...

"-- There's a problem."

Chiba Noria and I said almost in unison, and everyone was shocked to shush out in an instant because of our "abnormal tacit understanding".

"What's going on?" This time it was Momoi who asked.

"The content of the letter is not glass." I shook my head and said, and Chiba Norishi immediately picked up my words: "I'm afraid it is..."

How can I say it? I think Norito Chiba should have the same difficulty as I did with the description of "it".

"Uh... Well... How can I say that..."

"Let me tell you—" I said, "I think Sister Wen Hui's words are the content of the letter. ”

In everyone's cloudy eyes, I continued: "Sister Wen Hui started to say from there-'The envelope is just a piece of glass, the size of a square palm, very thin, red, with words on it--from here, that's what it says... Signed in the lower right corner - lily of the valley puppet', that's what she said, in fact, there is no glass, there is - that's just this paragraph. ”

"I still don't understand, there's no problem, what's the problem?" Jin Chuan scratched his brown hair and wondered.

"The problem is in the sentence after 'look from here,' and the whole paragraph should be read like this—the envelope is just a piece of glass, the size of a square palm, very thin, red, with words on it, and it looks like that from here, lily of the valley puppet."

After I finished explaining, I looked at everyone.

"-I see." Guanghui, who had never spoken, suddenly exclaimed, looking enlightened, he was a person who was good at fighting, tall, 180 cm, and he was also very outstanding in sports and science, and Miyayama, who was better at liberal arts, often followed behind Momoi, so Momoi was usually both civil and military.

Yes, this is the content of the letter, but the meaning of this passage becomes more complicated and questionable when read in this way.

First of all, there are words on the glass, but I don't know what is written? Second, does "from here" mean from the letter? Or is it from somewhere else..."From here, it is written" is simply to express the meaning of the previous words? Or is it something else - that the "words on the glass" are written from "somewhere"?

My speculation is that Chiba Norishi and Momoi both agree, and all that remains is to go to Sister Wen Hui to confirm, she has become a reliable clue, because only she has seen the letter from the lily of the valley puppet, and only she, the "person who is still alive", has seen it.

"But, Xiaoxi, Sister Wen Hui also talked about the theft of glass at that time, if the glass is not glass, I mean 'glass' is just two words in the letter, then Sister Wen Hui directly said that the 'letter' was stolen, why do you specifically refer to 'glass'?" Shui Jing finally couldn't help but speak, and I think her questions were also chosen.

"That's the crux of the matter, so let's make sure."

"I think Sister Wen Hui may have been devoured." Chiba Dian's said seriously, "That thing may have some kind of guidance, after all, we haven't seen it with our own eyes, and this is also closely related to 'accidents will happen to people who receive letters', maybe Sister Wen Hui was guided by something after reading it..."

Everyone began to express their opinions and discuss with each other what they understood.

"But... Even if it's confirmed, what now? We're dealing with something very tricky, isn't it time to think about it? Ji Mei whispered something again, Wen Nai's incident really had a big impact on her, so much so that she was trembling all the time.

She may no longer be able to endure the intensity of the shock of death, or even the possibility of it befalling her, that would be a maddening thought.

It is true that this is also something that everyone is worried about, but now it seems that the original "method of resistance" has failed.

In the silence, Momoi spoke.

"--Have you noticed that there is something among us, in this classroom?"

"Yes."

It was Miyayama who spoke the same voice with me.
