Chapter 25: Pit Daddy and Pit Goods

While thinking, Shiraki looked at the room.

It was getting late, and there was no light in the bungalow, so it was pitch dark.

However, the night vision ability of the Grim Reaper MAX, even if it is now used with a human shell, it is enough to see the surroundings clearly.

The place where he was now was the hall on the first floor of the bungalow, surrounded by all kinds of strange statues - some kind of demon with a fruit girl in its mouth, a monster with a eagle head and a human body, and a snake body wrapped around it.

Glancing around, unsurprisingly, nothing was found. The soul is not here.

But this is also normal, generally speaking, only when a person has just died, the soul will stay on his corpse because of the impact is too great, and he will be confused.

After a while, when they come back to their senses, they will float around.

This time to return to your senses varies from ghost to ghost, and there are even a handful of gifted people who can travel thousands of miles to find their relatives or enemies before their death, and follow them.

Therefore, Shiraki likes to collect souls as early as possible, which can effectively reduce the workload.

And now this soul can survive for five years, which can obviously be counted as "gifted", and it will not honestly stay in the room when it was killed.

Bai Shu remembers this case, the truth is that five years ago, the owner of the house had a quarrel with his son and was beaten to death by his impulsive son.

The mother did not report the crime when she found out, but disguised it as a theft and murder case, pretended to take her son away, and actually locked him in the basement to prevent him from turning himself in, wanting to wait for the case to lapse.

Relatives and enemies are two in one, so it seems that the soul is either next to the son or next to the mother.

Mother's whereabouts are a bit erratic...... Let's go to the basement and find the locked up son first.

Known world tracks have some hints about where the entrance to the basement is.

Shiraki followed his memories upstairs, and then managed to find the door that opened on the floor at the end of a hallway.

Shiraki pulled the door up and walked inside.

The passage was cold and damp, made up of several flights of stairs descending, and at the bottom was a door with a faint light peeking through the crack in the doorβ€”the only place in the house that had been lit in about five years.

Pushing open the door, there is a space of about forty square meters, and there is a row of iron railings on the right side of the door, which extends from one end to the other, like a cage, and locks a man with messy hair and a strange beard inside.

Shiraki closed the door, stopped in front of the railing, and his eyes fell on the "wild man" in the cage.

The man curled up on the dirty bed, covering his face in pain and moaning "whin", unresponsive to Shiraki's entry into the room.

On his back, a vague mass of spirits raised its head.

It looked at the white tree in disbelief, and after making eye contact with the latter, it shrank down in horror and hid behind the "wild man's" hair, trying to hide its form.

"......", Bai Shu hooked his finger at it, "Don't hide, come here." ”

The soul didn't move.

Instead, the "wild man" turned his head to look at him in surprise.

He glared at the stranger, tilted his head and didn't know what he was thinking for a while, and suddenly stumbled down to the ground and pounced in the direction of the white tree.

The soul never expected his son to react like this, he was stunned for two seconds, and when he reacted and wanted to run, a huge suction force suddenly came from in front of him.

When he came back to his senses, he was already firmly held in his hand by the white tree.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Let me go! I won't be blind, my lord! I'm going to see this little bastard get the punishment he deserves! The soul was frightened, struggling to escape, and there was a resentful expression on his face - he didn't dare to hate Bai Shu, and his emotions were all directed at the people in the cage.

What happened just now made him deeply realize once again that this is really a cheat.

How did you give birth to such a thing!

Bai Shu was so annoyed by him that his brain hurt, and he pinched him and shook him twice, "What are you excited about, I didn't say that I wouldn't let you see it." ”

"Huh?" , The soul was stunned, and after comprehending the meaning of Bai Shu's words, his momentum visibly increased, "Oh, you don't want to send me away immediately......"

"......", Bai Shu glanced at him indescribably, his temper is really impatient, the family relationship will be ossified to the point where you live and die, this unlucky father can at least share half of the pot.

At this time, the forgotten wild man next to him grabbed the iron railing and asked in a hoarse voice, "You...... What do you want me to do here? Are you going to arrest me? ”

In the past five years, he has not seen anyone except his mother. Locked in a dark basement and not saying a word for several days, his spirit has already begun to trance.

Seeing this stranger break in at this moment, his first thought was that the incident had happened. In addition to being nervous, I actually felt a strange sense of relief in my heart.

Bai Shu looked at him and asked knowingly, "Why did you arrest you?" ”

"Huh? Because I ......," the wild man fell silent in the middle of his words.

After a while, he suddenly held his head in pain, slid to the ground against the railing, and repeated nervously, "I don't know, I don't know!" ”

Five years later, he is still immersed in the horror and grief of killing his father, and the huge negative emotions have made him escape this terrible fact.

If someone else breaks it, he will not refute it, but let him say it himself...... With this weak character, no one pushes it, so it is estimated that it is impossible.

But it doesn't matter, the police will be there soon anyway.

Five years ago, the case was deadlocked because, although the murderer's blood fingerprints were collected, the son had disappeared by then and there was no way to compare them.

And now, no matter how entangled the son is, in the end, there is only one way to go.

Eh, there seems to be a slight difference.

Bai Shu shook the soul in his hand that was in a daze, "Surrender or be caught, which do you want to see?" ”

The soul pursed his lips and looked at his son curled up on the ground, and did not say a word for a long time.

It wasn't until Bai Shu thought something was wrong with it and shook him twice in confusion that he spoke slowly, "Let him turn himself in." ”

"Oh, that'......"

"No, it's okay to just catch it!" , Bai Shu nodded halfway, the soul suddenly thought of something, and stared at him, "I thought about it, I think this little bastard must not have the courage to turn himself in!" Then arrest him! Caught and beaten hard! ”

"......", Bai Shu couldn't keep up with this fickle old man.

I was about to say something, but there was a sudden click above the diagonal top, and almost at the same time, a small conversation came.

It seems that Conan and Ayumi found this place.

Bai Shu ignored the statue-like wild man on the ground and took two steps to the door.

It wasn't long before the door was gently pushed open, and two small heads poked out of the crack in the door, peeking in.

Then they met a pair of eyes.

…… Across the door, there is actually a person.

The basement was dimly lit, and the man was still with the light on his back, but he could still tell that he was staring straight at them!

One of the bear children was obviously frightened, she let out an exclamation of "ah", turned her head and was about to run back, before she took a step and was carried back by Bai Shuyi.
