The heavy rain continued and seemed to have never stopped.

But even so, Beichuan Temple and they still rushed to the camping site one after another.

After all, this kind of sudden heavy rain should not last long under normal circumstances.

In addition, the camping site also has a canopy and stove for this kind of heavy rain, and you can buy dry firewood and charcoal on the other side.

Therefore, there is no need to terminate the camping activities for the time being.

But—

What about Mirai Kamiya and Eri Kitagawa?

Kitagawa Temple put aside the things he bought, and after a cursory glance at the scene, he made sure that he didn't find Mirai Kamiya and Eri Kitagawa before asking, "Has anyone seen Mirai and Eri?" They must have been the first to get here. ”

"When we arrived, we didn't see the shadow of Kamiya-senpai and Eri, we thought they saw the heavy rain and went back to join you, Brother Temple, what's the matter? Didn't Brother Si see it over there? ”

Otomo asked curiously.

"......" Kitagawa Temple.

He looked up at the shower, his brow tightened.

Just now, Kitagawa Temple called Kamiya Mirai and them, but reminded that the other party was outside the circle.

"But the area around here belongs to the capital, how can it be outside the circle?"

It would be easy to understand that the circle of God's village in the village is outside the circle, after all, it is located in the middle of nowhere.

But it's near Tokyo.

Could it be because of the heavy rain?

But even so...

Kitagawa Temple pondered.

It shouldn't be what happened to Eri Kitagawa and Kamiya in the future, right?

Kitagawa Temple couldn't help but take out his mobile phone, and just when he wanted to call Eri Kitagawa and Kamiya Mirai again, the mobile phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Eri Kitagawa.

Kitagawa Temple's heart moved, he connected the phone and turned on the speakerphone, and immediately asked, "Is it Eri?" Where are you and the future? ”

There was no sound coming from the phone.

This made Beichuan Temple can't help but take the phone away.

I am indeed on the phone with Eri Kitagawa.

"Hello? Eri? Can you hear me? I can't hear you here. Kitagawa Temple asked again by holding the phone close to his ear.

"......" Eri Kitagawa still didn't speak.

Beichuan Temple's eyes flickered, and his voice was anxious:

"If you and the future are in a situation where you can't speak now, then you cough. Or it can cause some other movement, if you can't even make the slightest movement—"

Before Kitagawa Temple finished speaking, Eri Kitagawa had already hung up the phone.

The phone ringed strangely in blind.

Eri Kitagawa didn't speak the whole time.

The blind tone of the phone is accompanied by the sound of raindrops falling, and there is an indescribable sense of permeability.

There's no way Eri Kitagawa would make such a bad joke, because she also knows Kitagawaji's temper.

Besides, Eri Kitagawa wants to make such a joke, and Kamiya on the side will stop her in the future.

But now it's going to happen...

Everyone listened to the blind sound of the phone, and their bodies trembled subconsciously.

I don't know if it's because of the cold spring, or because of the strange phone call from Eri Kitagawa just now.

"What the hell is going on? Brother Temple...? Eri her just now...? Saki Sakurai on the other side felt more and more that something was wrong, and she came to Kitagawa Temple and said worriedly.

Kitagawa Temple looked at his phone and thought for a long time before he spoke: "Eri, they should be in a state where they can't speak. ”

"Can't speak? How can I use my phone if I can't speak? And we've just made several phone calls, all of which have reminded them that they're outside the circle. Saki Sakurai's face was full of eagerness.

"Not being able to speak does not mean that you can't speak with your mouth, but that they can hear us when we speak, but we can't hear them when they speak, and the reason for being outside the circle is probably because of this... This call is a hint to me in the future. ”

There are several situations now.

The first is that Eri Kitagawa and Miku Kamiya encountered an incident such as kidnapping, so they couldn't speak, so they could only call.

The second is that Kitagawa Temple spoke, and Eri Kitagawa also spoke, but neither side could hear the other.

The former was a human incident such as kidnapping, so Eri Kitagawa and Mirai Kamiya couldn't talk, so they could only call.

The second is that they encountered a supernatural event, and Eri Kitagawa and Kamiya Miku encountered a supernatural incident.

The reason why they can't get their words across is because they're in a space where they're not in the same place.

It's not that you can't speak, it's that you can't convey what you say to the present world.

Because Kamiya Mirai is by Eri Kitagawa's side, Kitagawa Temple thinks that it is really difficult for a human kidnapping incident to happen to that eccentric little girl.

And there is no slightest movement in the phone call, and then calling it is also a reminder that it is outside the circle...

"Tokyo's information network... It shouldn't be so simple to be stopped by a heavy rain. ”

Beichuan Temple raised his head, and he already had an idea in his heart.

It's better to think of it that way.

Mirai Kamiya and Eri Kitagawa are on their way to camp, but they are forced to find shelter from the rain due to heavy rain on the way.

And in the process of searching, Kamiya Mirai and Eri Kitagawa encountered some kind of supernatural event, so they couldn't send a message to Kitagawa Temple at the first time.

"But it's also possible that it's really the heavy rain that's blocking the communication... They're just stuck somewhere. ”

Kitagawa Temple's eyes twinkled.

If it's the latter, it's easy to solve.

But if it's the former, it probably takes some work.

Either way, it's not a state of mind to sit back here.

After sorting out all the useful information in his head, Kitagawa Temple wrapped his mobile phone in a thickened transparent plastic sheet, so that when Kitagawa Eri and the others called, they would not have a means of contact.

"I already have an idea in my heart, you wait here for a while, I will definitely find the two of them."

Kitagawa Temple glanced back at the worried people, and then instructed them, "Remember, you stay here, and in the future and Eri may encounter what happened to you last time, and if you do, it will only cause me more trouble." ”

His words may have been a little unkind, but it's true.

"I see, we'll stay here and wait for Brother Si to come back." The calmest Otomo replied.

Beichuan Temple nodded, and without saying a word, he plunged directly into the rain curtain and ran towards the way he came.

He actually has an umbrella, but there are priorities, and carrying an umbrella will affect his speed, so Beichuan Temple chose to look all the way in the rain.

Mio Sakura, Ai Otomo, and Saki Sakurai looked at the long figure that completely disappeared into the rain curtain, and the anxiety in their hearts was slowly suppressed.

That's Kitagawa Temple.,The invincible temple brother who has always been on the lips of Kitagawa Eri.。

How could it be impossible to even do such a thing?

At this time, an old and bitter voice came from the side:

"The rain is falling, the cold rain seeps into the bone marrow, and the traveler who is lost in the deep mountains will never see the sun tomorrow again... Ay... It's pitiful, it's pitiful..."

When the three little girls heard this, they couldn't help but look back at the person who said it.

It was a hunchbacked old man on crutches.

His face and neck were covered with brown old age spots, and his beard was gray, and he looked like he didn't have long to live.

This is the caretaker who manages the camping area, and it seems that he has lived in this area for more than 30 years, and he has to buy firewood and charcoal from him.

"Grandpa... The one just now... What is the meaning? Mio Sakura spoke first.

She wasn't feeling well.

The other party is almost like cursing Kitagawa Temple and Kamiya in the future.

And to be honest, what the hunchbacked old man said had a serious local accent, and they barely understood a little bit of the content just now.

"The House of Rain... Poor thing... Alas... It's so pathetic..."

He ignored Mio Sakura, just looked at the direction of Kitagawa Temple's departure, and kept lamenting.

It's as if lamenting the passing of a fresh life.

Thundered!!!

Lightning flashed through the sky.

First there was an incandescent flash of light, and then there was a terrible sound that struck everyone's hearts.

The light of the forest continued to pass by, and the entire camping area was reflected in a strange and terrifying light.

And among them, the empty expression of the old man looking at the distance, and the strange and strange dialect like chanting, made people shudder.

......

Poor Nishikujo has recently stopped working out and has become obsessed with sewing doll clothes.

This little guy hides in his room every day and uses his computer to find videos on the Internet, and today is no exception.

Therefore, Kitagawa Temple did not bring Nishikujo Pity, who was particularly sensitive to resentment, this time, and he could only rely on his own sense of death to find Kamiya Mirai and Kitagawa Eri.

"These footprints..."Beichuan Temple stood on the mountain road, looking at the two footprints huddled together.

The footprints are a little small, and they look like they belong to girls, but compared to other footprints, their footprints are a little deep, which shows that the owners of these two footprints came here with something on their backs.

The footsteps that walked side by side continued until the foot of Kitagawa Temple stopped, and it seemed that something had happened.

Kitagawa Temple roughly calculated the distance between Kamiya Mirai and Kitagawa Eri, and recalled the number of people in the camping area just now.

Apart from them, there should be no other travelers coming.

These two footprints were obviously just left, and they were carrying something...

"Mirai and Eri..."

Through these two footprints, Beichuan Temple turned to look into the dense forest on the right-hand side.

The black jungle is not easy to see, but when it is obscured by the rain, it is even more blurred.

There is an inconspicuous path there.

It feels as if Kitagawa Temple looked past and the path suddenly appeared.

On the path, Beichuan Temple faintly saw two lines of familiar footprints.

Meandering all the time... Meandering all the time...

Kitagawa Temple raised its head.

In front of him was a cold red bungalow.

The surface of the bungalow is covered with raindrops.

Thundered!!!!

The white light illuminates this hideous building.

It was only then that Beichuan Temple saw that there was still a blood-red cross on the top of the pointed house of this building.

"How can there be such a mansion in such a barren mountain and wilderness?" Kitagawa Temple narrowed his eyes and unconsciously slid into his palm.

......

It is a bungalow mansion shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.

The red carpet on the floor had fallen with a thick layer of dust, and it looked black and dirty.

The faded yellow background and the red and black crosses arranged everywhere like religious buildings are reminiscent of some horror scenes in European and American films.

"Still can't get in touch with Si-kun? Eri's sister? ”

Mirai Kamiya hides with Eri Kitagawa in a place that resembles a prayer hall.

The dome of the prayer hall is a variety of religious portraits, mainly about the birth of Jesus and a series of missionary deeds.

It's just that some places have been soaked in black blood-like places, and they can't be seen clearly at all.

At this time, Mirai Kamiya and Eri Kitagawa were huddled on the priest's pulpit under the statue of the crucifixion, and they only dared to make a small sound.

"Still can't get through... We got through just now, but Brother Si couldn't hear us at all. Kitagawa Einai was pale and pinched her phone, her voice faint.

Just half an hour ago, they had spotted the red bungalow mansion.

Under the reckless actions of Eri Kitagawa in this way, they went directly into the bungalow mansion.

Originally, he just hid in to avoid the rain for a while, but no one expected that the door of the bungalow would close with a bang and could no longer be opened.

The windows on the other side were nailed with wooden strips, and there was no way to escape from them.

Kamiya Miku, who had already sensed what had happened to him, had already raised his vigilance at that time.

While looking for a way to leave, she asked Eri Kitagawa to contact Kitagawa Temple immediately.

If you can't save yourself, you can only wait for Beichuan Temple to find them.

"Then there's no need to rush to call. Save some power. Mirai Kamiya took a slight breath and said in a low voice.

"But... That thing just now... What is it? ”

Eri Kitagawa's fingers trembled, and her face turned blue.

Just now, she lowered her steps and lowered her voice under the reminder of Kamiya Mirai.

Originally, Eri Kitagawa didn't know what this meant, but she found that strange thing at the edge of the hall where she came...

It was a child whose whole body was twisted up and down.

They were covered with hideous wounds, but they were still playing in the hallway.

If Kamiya Mirai hadn't asked her to keep her footsteps down, it is estimated that she would have been discovered early.

And because this mansion is full of weirdness and weirdness, Kamiya Mirai also decisively chose to give up saving himself, and was ready to stay in a relatively safe place and wait for rescue.

After all, in this kind of dangerous bungalow, it is really not a safe and correct choice for her to walk around with Eri Kitagawa. Only by waiting for Beichuan Temple to come over can they have the possibility of escaping.

She poked her head out every five minutes to check the prayer hall for about ten seconds, and then retracted her head when she was sure there was no problem.

Kamiya Future has always been very clear about her position, she will not do reckless and forcible things, since she can't save herself, she can only protect herself first.

Temple-kun... You've got to come here sooner...

Kamiya Miku took another breath, she touched the bracelet that Kitagawa Temple gave her on her wrist, and she felt as if the other party was by her side.

Such... She can continue to speak of courage.

The five-minute time is up again.

Kamiya Miku's body moved, and his little head poked out again-

In front of him was a little boy whose eyes had been hollowed out, and from which jet-black liquid emerged.

Kamiya Miku's eyes and the other party's empty eye sockets-

Look at each other.
