Although there are two guesses, Shinji Kamihara guesses that there is a high probability that it is the second.

At this moment, his mind was clear.

Bells have an excellent meaning in Japan. In addition, it is also related to time, and it is a metaphor for punctuality.

Every time Mr. Matsunai borrowed something, he would return it.

When he was observing at the other party's house yesterday, the other party borrowed the pot at that time.

After a certain period of time, the other party directly told him that he was going to Mr. Gao Yan's house to return the pot.

Now that I think about it, every time I borrow something, Mr. Matsuuchi returns it at a certain time. This means being punctual and borrowing and returning.

And after borrowing it himself yesterday, he didn't return the gift box to Mr. Matsuuchi at the stipulated time, so he died.

To confirm this suspicion, it's as simple as borrowing it again.

But...

Shinji Kamihara looked at the small clock on the coffee table, which he had thought had killed him.

It didn't seem like it was now, but he still had to test it.

Thinking about it, he reached out and picked up the small copper clock on the coffee table.

It's okay.

The thought rose to him, and he shook the little bell for a moment.

Dengdenden! ——

The sound is crisp, not as heavy and dull as the temple bell.

Shinji Kamihara put the bell down, and he didn't die. Obviously, my conjecture just now is very likely to be correct.

Thinking about it, he went straight out. Came to Mr. Matsuuchi's door again.

Ding Dong –

"Who?"

"Mr. Matsuuchi, it's me."

Shinji Kamihara spoke calmly, and the Overseer faced a strange enemy and caution, as if he did not exist here.

The door opened.

"It turned out to be Kamihara-san, what's the matter?"

Mr. Matsuuchi's smile was as good as ever, with a sense of humility and caution.

"Mr. Matsuuchi, I want to come into your house to have a look, is that okay?"

"Yes."

After talking exactly like in the middle of the night, Shinji Kamihara followed Mr. Matsuuchi into the room.

It's afternoon and the sun is just starting to set. So it's not like it's pitch black in the middle of the night.

When he entered the house, he could detect it. Mr. Matsuuchi walked in front of him and slowly followed him.

Obviously, this is waiting for him to do something.

However, Shinji Kamihara, who has already died twice, is no longer ignorant, so naturally he will not act rashly.

He came under the white walls, and in front of him was a pile of gift boxes.

He counted silently.

At the end, his face gradually became solemn.

Unlike yesterday's number, today's box is one hundred and seventy-eight.

Added two.

In an instant, Shinji Kamihara thought of something.

Today, a young couple moved into their first apartment.

This is what he learned about just now when he talked to the manager Kondaki in the property room.

My own guess is true. The gift box represents the number of people living in the apartment.

Can...

How could it be one hundred and seventy-eight.

According to Omada, before the couple moved in, the number of residents in the first apartment was 171.

Now, after counting the number of boxes, he has added two more than the number of families who have moved out.

Apparently...

Even if you move away, you can't escape the fate of death.

The gift box will only increase, not decrease.

But according to this point of view, the gift box should also be one hundred and seventy-three, not one hundred and seventy-eight.

In addition to this, a wave of doubts rose in his mind.

The number of people mentioned by the property manager must have included Mr. Nakano on the 21st floor.

But according to his guess, the other party didn't accept the gift, didn't he avoid death?

Isn't it?

And what do these extra five gift boxes mean?

Pregnant? Frog Party?

Shinji Kamihara didn't think about it for too long, he didn't forget to get down to business.

He turned his head, looked at Mr. Matsuuchi, who was staring at him, and smiled slightly, "Mr. Matsuuchi, my family lacks a gift box to wrap gifts, can you lend me one?" ”

"Okay."

Shinji Kamihara picked up a gift box and said goodbye to Mr. Matsuuchi.

When you get home, place the gift box on the coffee table.

Then, he picked up Kondaki's business card and called him directly.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?"

"I'm Kamihara, and we just met in the property room."

"It turned out to be the Kamibara Police Department." Kondaki's voice became cautious, and he said cautiously, "Is there anything you want to ask from the Kamihara Police Department?" ”

Omada didn't ask Shinji Kamihara what he was investigating, knowing that curiosity can sometimes kill people.

"There's a problem." Shinji Kamihara paused, "There are no pregnant women in the first apartment. ”

Despite this question, he did not give much hope.

After all, property is not everything, especially in a high-end apartment area like Minghu Apartment, which is mainly service-oriented.

"Kamihara Police Department, I'll help you check." Ondagi smiled and spoke as he walked around, "Three days ago, people from the town came to comfort the pregnant woman at the Meiko Apartment, and I took the way. ”

What is the town meeting?

Shinji Kamihara was stunned.

The so-called town association is actually a neighborhood committee. However, the town has little to do with the government.

The chairman of the town council is elected every two years, and the town council is held by the residents on a rotational basis, and all of them are voluntary labor. Residents can voluntarily choose whether or not to join.

However, most residents will opt in.

Because Japanese people like to be in groups and are afraid of being alone, there are many events organized in the town, so you are embarrassed to participate if you are not a member.

For example, cherry blossom viewing events in Japan are organized by most town associations.

After the two chatted for a few minutes, Kondaki told him the news.

In addition to the other three apartments, the first one, the one he lives in, has only one person who is pregnant.

Mrs. Hitani on the sixteenth floor.

"I see, thank you."

"You're so polite." Although Shinji Kamihara seems to be much younger and is still a student, Konda Mu does not dare to slack off.

High school students are the police department of the Metropolitan Police Department, and they are terrified to think about it.

After hanging up the phone, Shinji Kamihara fell into deep thought.

Only one person is pregnant, could it be that Mrs. Hitani is pregnant with five babies in her belly?

It's not impossible, but it's too probable, right?

If he was a normal watchdog, he didn't need to think about the gift box at all. Just investigate and find a way to avoid death.

But the reason why Shinji Kamihara investigated so carefully was to understand Mr. Matsuuchi's rules.

After containing the other party in this way, you can get all the Legend Points and Good and Evil points.

Looking at the time, seven or eight minutes have passed.

I'm not dead yet... It seems that there is no time limit for returning.

In order to determine the exact timing, Shinji Kamihara does not plan to return it this time.

Time passed second by second, very quickly, when the time came to ten minutes.

Tick!

The second moved slightly, and after another second, Shinji Kamihara's eyes went dark, and he fell directly on the sofa.

A minute later, he stood up.

Picking up the notebook, he silently wrote down this rule on it.

If you borrow something, you have to pay it back, and the time limit for returning things is...

Ten minutes.

Of course, to verify, he went to borrow it again. This time, five minutes later, he returned the thing.

Ten minutes passed, and Shinji Kamihara was not dead.

Ding Dong –

While thinking, the doorbell rang.

Mr. Matsuuchi is here? Shinji Kamihara was a little surprised when he raised this thought.

I just borrowed it yesterday, and I came here again today? Don't need a cooldown?

You know, Mr. Matsuuchi borrowed something once before, and it was every few days.

But soon, Shinji Kamihara woke up, and it was obvious that Mr. Matsuuchi's borrowing of things was becoming more and more frequent.

When he came to the entrance door, he opened the door directly.

"Kamihara-san, I'm sorry. The shower equipment at home is broken, can I borrow your bathroom to take a bath? ”
