At about 8 o'clock in the evening, the rain in Kaedeyama, Matsuyama City, gradually stopped. The red maple forest is still vivid in the twilight, as if it were burning in the dark.

The glorious lights of the city in the distance are intoxicating, like broken diamonds sprinkled on the sand, twinkling with the brilliance of the stars and moon. The water in the river has swelled due to the recent heavy rains, and the sound of gurgling water at the foot of the mountain can be heard in your ears.

The boy and the girl overlook the city surrounded by red maples, and such a romantic world of two people is enviable.

“…… Brother Makono, it's so beautiful. The girl's dark eyes reflected the splendid city.

She was wearing a school uniform and a short skirt, her slender and youthful body was full of youthful vitality, and her long and silky hair fluttered in the evening breeze. This child is actually one of the few good children who does not dye his hair or perm it.

"But, Yuri-chan, isn't it good for us to come out without permission like this? According to Mr. Ohno, strange things have been happening here at night lately, so now that we've seen it, we really want to go back early, right? If the teacher finds out......" The boy on the other side was a little worried, saying something unpleasant and unconscious.

The two of them are talking in pure Sang language.,It can be seen that it's a collective activity organized by the Sang School Park in Songshan City.。 The two students are decent in terms of dress and appearance, and there is no perm or dyed hair for the pursuit of individuality, nor is it like making some messy patterns on the school uniform.

On the contrary, whether it is a girl or a boy, the overflowing bookish atmosphere and the faintly revealed pride show that the two are not ordinary people.

But it is really surprising that these two seemingly top students actually broke away from the group in violation of discipline and came to the mountaintop terrace hand in hand.

"Mou, Brother Makono, you always can't read the air like this." The girl put her hands behind her back, leaned sideways and said to Seino, "So, why do we have to blindly follow the words of our teachers and parents?" This is Matsuyama! Could there still be any big wildlife? There won't be any danger. It's hard for two people to be alone, shouldn't we cherish such time? ”

"However, Yuri-chan, what happened on the Internet recently ......" Seino was still frowning and hesitating, he felt uneasy in this red maple forest more than once.

"My husband has to die! This is modern times, Brother Seino, you have to believe in science, this is a world ruled by materialism, how can those terrible things happen. So, don't always watch those weird videos. Those people dare to fabricate anything in order to be famous. Yuli didn't care, leaning against the railing.

Living in this era, you can be afraid of the dark, you can be suspicious, but saying that you believe that there are ghosts in this world will definitely be ridiculed by most people, although many people themselves will be suspicious.

Although many people in this world have photographed real ghosts, those who believe in it are more and more convinced, and those who don't believe still don't believe it, and even a craze has formed on the Internet, including shooting supernatural video proofs, and questioning these videos and photos that are inseparable from falsehood. It is impossible to say whether this tide is pushed by people or spontaneously, but the good thing is that the social order is still stable, after all, most people are conformist and willing to believe in what they believe to be true.

"However, there has been news of people missing here recently......"

Yuri took out the hanging amulet from JK's neckline and said, "Don't worry, I still have this!" This is a peace charm that my mother reverently asked for from the temple. ”

"Brother Chengye, Ha Yage, I finally waited until the rain stopped, can you take a picture of me?"

Seino couldn't help but relax a little when he looked at Yuri-chan's cute expression.

"Maybe it's really me who is overthinking." Makono pulled out his phone.

The girl posed, but when she saw the moment on the phone screen, Makono's face turned pale.

In the shot, a woman covered in tatters is clutching Yuri's shoulder, as if feeling being watched, and the ghost looks up, and the unrecognizable head seems to be smiling.

“…… Yuri-chan. Makono's mind went blank, and his phone fell to the ground.

He felt chills all over his body, and his legs and feet were stiff. He doesn't actually believe much in supernatural legends, but what's going on now? It's a prank, right? Right? But why...... Peace Charm...... Why is Yuri-chan's peace charm useless?

"What's wrong, Brother Seino?" Yuri felt that the atmosphere was not right, and was about to say something, when she suddenly tensed up, and felt a strange look on her shoulder, "Brother Seino, what's wrong behind me......"

The girl felt as if there was a gust of cold wind blowing around her neck, and she couldn't help but turn her head.

“いいえ！！！”

A woman's scream echoed through the mountains, and the wind gusted in the red maple forest, muffled by the rustling of leaves.

Wearing hiking shoes, Zhang Luo, who was pulling Bai Su up, seemed to have heard something, raised his head and frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Brother Luo, what's wrong?" Bai Su wiped the fine sweat from his forehead and asked.

Zhang Luo shook his head: "It's nothing, it may be the wind." ”

After the rain, the mountain is very slippery, and although there are stone steps, they are covered with moss. He had to take care of Bai Su carefully, the girl's slender arms and legs, which made him always afraid that he would break if he accidentally fell.

It's weird and troublesome.

Originally, he didn't want to take this child with him, but he was caught when he went out, and he was guessed at his destination, which made Zhang Luo very painful. He didn't even know how this girl guessed, could it be that he had learned the Great Prophecy Technique?

The girl kept saying that she hoped to face it with her. The stubbornness in his eyes made him have to worry that this girl would come alone, it would be too dangerous. It's better to take her with you, so that you can take care of her.

To be honest, when he watches anime, he hates the kind of supporting characters who don't have much ability and like to drag their feet next to the protagonist. But when it came to his position, he had to take care of Bai Su's mood. He knew that Bai Su was afraid, afraid that the world of the two people would be farther and farther away, and they would slowly lose their intersection, although the girl was not very old, her feelings in some aspects were still very keen.

Zhang Luo was destined to have no way to live a dull life from the day he got the Di Tingshu.

And this girl's emotions, like a moth to a fire, are not only as simple as refusal.

Who made him keep flirting lately? It's not okay to be okay after flirting, it's to be responsible. Otherwise, if something happens, when his mother comes back, he won't be able to deal with him.

So Zhang Luo took her to the city to buy some mountaineering equipment, knee pads, mosquito repellent water, hiking shoes, headlamps and medicine for injuries.

He didn't plan to use it himself, because this guy didn't think he was so delicate. Even if his forehead was injured and his appearance was almost broken, he didn't care much.

However, he still regarded Bai Su as a little more delicate, although the girl looked thin, but mountaineering was not as tiring as Zhang Luo imagined. Moreover, the mountains around here are not very high.

Red maple forests spread over a large area, several hills, and there are forest rangers and rides for excursions. And what Zhang Luo passed by train was just a river valley passing through the forest. And the area they are in is certainly not accessible to ordinary tourists, just say the slippery moss and fallen leaves on the ground, you can see that there are not many people walking around this place.

It's very quiet, and when you shine with the lights, you can see the torii gate that has fallen into disrepair and has faded in color, and there should be a shrine at the end.

This is not surprising, in the Sun Islands, any mountain, a river, or even near a well, a shrine can be built, similar to the land temple and the city god temple in the country. That's why Zhang Luo had a headache when he saw the so-called Heyuan Shrine, and the ghost knew where this shrine was.

Then again, if it weren't for the intention, who would have thought that there would be a group of ghosts here?

Although it didn't form a catastrophic event like Liugu School Park, it was dangerous enough. This is the eastern suburb of Songshan, not too far from the Dongcheng District of Zhang Luo's house, and the bunch of ghosts gathered here will have an accident sooner or later, so as not to turn into a catastrophe and be stolen.

Moreover, Zhang Luo, who has experienced many supernatural events, is also confident that he can hunt spirits below the ghosts in this barren mountain.

Probably not long after waking up, Bai Su was in good spirits, and in the evening, he and Zhang Luo visited the river valley full of fiery red maple leaves, and ate ramen together at the foot of the mountain, with brisk steps and a happy mood.

It feels like a special date to play.

But Zhang Luo hasn't seen a ghost shadow until now, and his mood is much worse in comparison.

A little ghost jumped out faintly, don't look at him short, but in this mountain forest, the speed is not affected at all. It's just that ordinary passers-by will inevitably have some heart attacks after seeing them.

"Mo tears, haven't you found anything yet?"

The imp shook his head, his dark eyes were strange and dull, and after dying once, the ghost was even more stupid.

Zhang Luo raised his head and looked around at the red maple forest, it was already late, and the woods were dense, but he didn't encounter a single ghost.

What about the haunted nest? I feel like I've been tricked.

Bai Su looked at Mo Tear and didn't know what to say, she had seen this little ghost more than once, but she was still a little panicked in her heart, so she didn't take the initiative to make any form of contact with the ghost.

She also knew what the two of them were doing here. Just like in the anime when I was a child, Ash and others went all over the mountains to catch Pokémon. It's just that those cute Pokémon are replaced with ghosts, but the usage is pretty much the same.

Well, it's also much more dangerous.

But she came over anyway.

As she said when she blocked Zhang Luo's way: "...... I don't know how I can help you, but I'm still very unwilling, very unwilling to sit in the city's stable hut, watching Brother Luo you go out again and again, fighting with unknown spirits and fighting with those bad guys. I am not willing to watch your world get farther and farther away from me. ”

"I know I'm acting willfully, but I can't stop it, I don't want that fate!"
