Because Jun Kuroda's team was closest to the scene of the crime, she received the call.

The crime took place in a small hotel located next to the full belly canteen.

The hotel is only four floors, and when you enter the lobby, there are already police officers waiting.

"See you again, Kuroda shrine maiden, it's hard to put into words."

Officer Narita of the Ise Police Station said with a wry smile.

"The first discoverer was a staff member of the hotel, and because of the strong rancid smell coming from the room, he knocked on the door and asked, and after getting no response, he asked the owner of the hotel to open the door and found the deceased."

As he went upstairs, he explained.

"The deceased was Takashi Aoki, a 41-year-old single reporter for Wakuni Strange Weekly, who had come to Ise two days ago to collect materials for the New Year's festival...... Do you want a mask? ”

Officer Narita brought a couple of masks.

"Because the taste is really strong......"

Jun Kuroda didn't speak, took the mask and put it on, and put on a thin layer of rubber gloves to prevent the scene from being destroyed.

On the fourth floor, a room at the elevator door had been blocked by a yellow cordon, and even from a distance, Qiao Qiao could smell a strong rancid smell.

"Aoki Taka......"

Qiao Qiao thought of the person he met at noon, which should have been around 2:30 p.m. at that time?

After that, Takashi Aoki returned to the hotel and died?

Then the time of death should be between 2:30 and 4:00......

Qiao Qiao followed behind Officer Narita, and when he saw the scene in the room, his thoughts slowed down a little.

"Don't look."

Jun Kuroda promptly pressed Makoto Kuroda, who was sticking her head into the room, to keep her sister away from the scene of the crime.

Then, Jun Kuroda covered his mouth while wearing a mask and retched twice.

Officer Narita's face wrinkled into bitter melon, and in addition to his mask, he covered his nose with a handkerchief.

Only Qiao Qiao, who was only wearing a thin mask, looked into the room.

If Ayako Kashiwagi is a way to tell her death at a glance, then Takashi Aoki is no different.

On the wall of the room, there is a painting.

The painting was made up of dark black, crimson, and dark brown, and spread out on the wall like a painting that no one could read by an abstract painter.

The four walls of the entire room, the ceiling, are all similar marks.

Pigments, on the other hand, are human beings.

Aoki's broken head was strewn across the bed, his bones crushed by something, mixed between flesh and viscera.

The whole picture has an amazing impact, as if it were some kind of evil reality incarnate, and it is definitely not something that humans can do.

At the same time, the flesh emitted a foul-smelling smell of corruption, and it could be seen that many pieces of flesh had become extremely dark in color, and even maggots crawled out.

"It's cruel."

Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa sighed softly.

“？”

Qiao Qiao was a little confused.

Regardless of what killed Aoki Gui, such a level of corruption cannot be achieved in a few hours.

Maggots like this, and spoiled pieces of meat, and this strong rancid smell take a long time to become like this.

And obviously only a few hours ago, he had only met Aoki Taka.

"What? Have you seen the dead at two o'clock? ”

Officer Narita's eyes widened after listening to Qiao Qiao and Kuroda's explanations.

"But according to preliminary test results, the body was dead for at least a week."

He pulled out a notebook with a police badge.

"Wakuni Strange Weekly is not an official media, but an online media that focuses on hunting news, Aoki Takashi went out about ten days ago to collect materials, and since then he has hardly been in contact with his colleagues, and the bill shows that he came to Ise the day before yesterday, and his trajectory before that is uncertain."

"Let's be psychic first."

Kuroda Jun said, wanting to stretch out his hand, but hesitated again and looked at Qiao Qiao.

"Qiao San, let's come on."

Compared with himself, Qiao Qiao's spiritism is more accurate and convenient.

Qiao Qiao nodded and found a piece of corpse casually.

The dead do not necessarily have spirits, especially those who have been killed by extreme cruelty.

What's more, according to the forensic examination, this corpse has been dead for more than a week, even if it is a normal death, if there are no special circumstances, the spirit body may not be able to survive.

After a simple psychic, Qiao Qiao confirmed that there was indeed no spirit body.

Shaking his head at Jun Kuroda, Qiao Qiao continued to channel.

This time the object is this room.

In the picture, at about three o'clock, a man in a dark trench coat walked into the room, which was the same Aoki Gui that Qiao Qiao and the others saw.

He took off his clothes and sat down on the bed.

At this time, the man's abdomen began to swell as if he was pregnant.

His face detached from his bones and became very strange.

Bang –

The next moment, the man exploded directly, and the flesh and blood splashed onto the walls and ceilings, turning into what Qiao Qiao and the others saw now.

"It's ...... A living corpse? ”

After listening to Qiao Qiao's words, Kuroda Jun thought for a moment and said.

"Living corpses?"

It's not that Qiao Qiao hasn't seen a living corpse, and on the flight to Hawaii, the living corpse almost turned the passengers of the entire flight into zombies.

It was at that time that Qiao Qiao had a general understanding of the existence of the magic manipulation of living corpses, and at the same time, there was also the fact that some soul slayers were not on the side of humans.

In other words, what the soul-slayers did this time was also doing?

Qiao Qiao's spiritual vision was very keen, and he could almost detect most of the extremely tiny yin qi, but when he was communicating with Aoki Gui just now, he didn't find that the other party was dead.

It can't be that he wasn't dead at that time, and then he went back to the hotel and died violently, and the corpse directly decayed through time to the current level.

"And ......"

Qiao Qiao found that in this room of flesh and blood, through blood vessels, internal organs, and bones, it seemed to form a pattern.

He recorded it and drew it, and Jun Kuroda frowned slightly when he saw it.

"This pattern looks like some kind of Shinto structure, but I haven't seen it before."

She said.

"How does it compare to Ayako Kashiwagi's?"

Qiao Qiao asked again.

"Ayako Kashiwagi...... No, the two are not the same, the other is more rudimentary, almost theoretical, more like an imitation, while this one clearly has a certain occult significance, and can be activated if the right means are used. ”

Jun Kuroda fell into thought.

"Start?"

"Yes, the essence of Shinto is spiritism, it is a method of communication with the gods, and the spells used to remove the spirits are also borrowed from the power of the gods, and after the corresponding magic circle is activated, it is naturally to communicate with the gods, but it is ......"

Jun Kuroda looked into the room.

Such a god of blood sacrifice and communication must not be a guy with good intentions.

"Someone wants to summon the Old Gods in Ise?"

Qiao Qiao felt that things were too big.
