Chapter 144: Just a Glance? (4000)
In the dark room, there are old but not old objects.
Empty.
There are only two girls trapped here.
The light outside the window gradually dimmed.
Cast a shadow over everything in the room.
There was not even a sound around them, only the slight breathing of the two of them.
It's a hair-raising silence.
It seems that even the air is full of the smell of age.
It's hard to put into words.
It seems like this everywhere, even if it's just the most ordinary TV set, it just stands there quietly, but it always exudes a weirdness.
It's like, everything in the whole room isn't normal, but I don't know what's wrong.
In short, there was a smell that something was wrong.
Perhaps the current calm is the biggest abnormality.
If Suzu Akagi had been a little more imaginative, she might have imagined that she had traveled back to Japan, more than 30 years ago, in the midst of the real estate bubble.
It's a pity that the current Akagi Suzu doesn't have time to think about those messy things.
She held her breath, her gaze fixed on the floor in front of her.
Because of the nervousness, I sweated a lot.
There, it's a lump of existence that is hard to describe in words.
It looks wet and slimy.
The color is pitch black.
At a cursory glance, it looks like a product of some kind of human metabolism.
At first glance, it gives people a strong sense of filth.
It seems that even the thoughts in my mind are stained with this filthy black.
Little by little, it seeped out on the floor, gradually converging into a single mass, and no specific shape could be seen.
At the same time, it also exudes a foul smell that is hard to ignore!
An aroma similar to that of decay and fermentation for decades emanates from it.
It swayed into the nose of Suzu Akagi and Sagara Sea.
Suzu Akagi frowned, and her heart lifted high.
What is it? 】
[There is no breath of spirit on the body.] 】
It's something strange that Suzu Akagi has never seen before.
But one thing is for sure, it's certainly not a good thing!
Suzu Akagi immediately classified this pitch-black and viscous existence as dangerous, and if their skin touched the edge of the pitch-black, I am afraid it would definitely not be wonderful!
"Akagi-chan, it stinks! ..... W-What is this......"
Sagara asked in a trembling voice.
Even Suzu Akagi had never seen her, let alone her.
Even Sagara's fear was even greater, even if she had encountered a youkai once before, but it was completely different from the current picture.
The monster she saw that time was barely a cute painting style, so why did it collapse immediately when it came here?
And the strong stench was constantly burning her nerves.
No matter how thick the nerves and big heart are in the Sagara Sea, they can't stay calm at this time!
After all, she is an ordinary high school freshman, and it is not wrong to say that she is a half-grown child.
The scene is filthy and weird.
Even beyond her cognition.
It is natural to panic and fear - this is the most normal mood of human beings when faced with the unknown.
It's just that she still has a little sense, and knows that the only person she can rely on now is Akagi Suzu, so she endured the fear in her heart and didn't cry at this time - crying is useless! It will only make her a burden to Suzu Akagi!
Although she is now a burden herself, she can't hold back Akagi-chan any longer!
The black slime oozed out bit by bit, eventually condensing into an existence about the height of an adult man.
It took a step.
"Tick!"
"Tick!"
A black liquid, dripping from its body.
It landed on the floor, forming a puddle of shocking traces.
The smell is almost pungent.
Although both girls covered their noses, it did little to help.
And that's not the most terrifying thing.
Instead, looking at the pitch-black filth, the same pitch-black involuntarily appeared in Suzu Akagi's mind.
Filthy and weird.
Slowly and inexorably, occupy that space.
Let her originally clear thinking slow down little by little.
It was as if there were little snakes, cold and slippery wrapped around her body.
It's an instinctive fear.
[No..... Again..... Such..... Go down .....]
【Required...... Want..... Do something ..... Miscellaneous...... .....]
When her mind is completely blunted, there will be not much difference between her and death!
It's just that the more I think about it, the more desperate Akagi Suzu becomes.
Because she found that in this situation, she had no means to solve the other party!
is still the same sentence, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.
She doesn't have the ability to fight!
This feeling is the same as when I was at Takahashi Kyoko's house!
It's all the same powerlessness, the same despair!
"I'm sorry, Akagi-chan ......"
Sagara's pupils had already begun to dilate, and at this time, her guilt for Akagi Lin had reached the extreme.
In her mind, if it weren't for her, Akagi-chan wouldn't have been in such a dangerous situation.
All she could do was keep muttering.
"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry....."
Akagi Suzu's heart also swelled with a strong unwillingness and fear.
Is she really going to die here?
The signal on the phone was re-displayed, and the arrival of several messages made the phone flutter a few times.
It also abruptly freed Akagi Suzu from a state of increasingly sluggish thinking.
The miserable white face was the first to appear in front of the two women.
He has a long posture and outstanding appearance.
It is incompatible with the filthy and cold painting style of the room at this time.
It was Harushi Shirakawa who had received a distress message earlier.
Suddenly.
"Former ..... Predecessor!? ”
Sagara Kairi also suddenly woke up from the almost desperate situation just now, and his eyes suddenly widened.
Under the eyes, there is nothing but surprise.
[Shirakawa-senpai, why did you suddenly appear here? ] 】
[Was it also an accident that was involved?] 】
[That's ..... It's terrible.....]
Sagara lowered his head, and his mood was even lower.
She thought it was the "White Night" that Suzu Akagi asked for help had arrived, but why.....
Will it be Shirakawa-senpai?
As an ordinary person, the predecessor can definitely only increase the number of missing people.
[Senior Shirakawa, obviously such a good person, why was he also implicated in this matter? ] 】
Thinking about it this way, the mood of the thick-eyebrow school girl will only be more sad.
"It stinks."
Bai Chuanqing frowned, and his gaze shifted to the filthy and filthy existence in front of him.
The face is expressionless.
Instead of taking two or three steps back as Sagara Kairi thought, he was shocked.
Instead.....
A step towards it?
Sagara's eyes glazed over.
[What's going on?] 】
[Why, Shirakawa-senpai walked towards that thing? 】
[It seems..... Not scared at all? 】
It's just that Sagara Kairi suddenly realized one thing-
Why didn't Shirakawa-senpai seem surprised at all about the current situation?
As for fear?
No, non-existent!
You can't find any traces of this from that good-looking face.
Even the slightest.
Sagara suddenly realized something, and turned his head to see Suzuya Akagi's apparently relieved expression.
Even if she is naïve, she can see it-
[Shirakawa seniors, is it the so-called "White Night"? Also a professional? 】
[But my predecessors ...... me again]
The chaos of information and questions poured in, making it impossible for the little brains in Sagara to deal with them quickly.
But on second thought.
She was a little pessimistic - [Even if Shirakawa's predecessor is the "White Night", can he really solve this kind of crisis? 】
Even Akagi-chan is helpless!
Harukawa Harukawa walked unhurriedly towards the presence of the viscous liquid.
If Sagara had looked more closely, he would have seen that the one that was coming towards them had stopped.
If you were more detailed, you might still be able to see its body, as if it were .....
Trembling gently?
Harukawa Shirakawa looked at each other expressionlessly.
No sorrow, no joy.
The gaze is cold.
He wasn't really sure what it was.
But one thing is certain, as long as the existence that threatens one's life is eliminated.
In the next moment, the viscous pitch-black liquid suddenly collapsed.
"Whoa!"
From a complete individual, it quickly slid downwards and reverted to the shape of that lump.
It seems to be digging harder into the ground.
In the blink of an eye, such a big lump of filth was left with only a small puddle.
It's still decreasing rapidly!
This scene in itself is enough to surprise Sagara Hairi and Suzu Akagi!
In their opinion, Shirakawa Harugo didn't do anything, just simply looked at the disgusting thing for a few seconds, this guy who couldn't deal with it at all in their eyes, turned out to be like this?
It seems, or is it a hasty escape?
And this kind of thing?
Suzu Akagi knew that Harukawa Harukawa was probably a monster herself, so she was only a little surprised at this time.
But Sagara couldn't be more surprised.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, she would have even suspected that everything was just a magic show.
Maybe she's dreaming right now!
Sagara Kairi pinched the flesh off his arm super hard.
"Hiss......"
It hurt so much that she only gasped.
A red mark came out all at once.
In order to prevent this method from being inaccurate, she really tried to do it very, very hard, and almost burst into tears.
[Not a dream? 】
She shook her head suddenly, and once again looked intently at Shirakawa-senpai not far away.
Still can't believe it.
[What happened just now!] 】
Suzu Akagi looked at Sagara with the eyes of "caring for the mentally handicapped" - you are probably the only one who can prove that you are not dreaming by being so heavy on yourself!
At this point, Shirakawa Squatted down and looked at some of the remaining marks on the ground.
"Shirakawa-san....."
Suzu Akagi whispered to Haruru Shirakawa.
"Thank you!"
The tone is weak, and .....
Still a little cowardly?
No, no!
The psychological shadow that Bai Chuanqing brought to her was too deep, so that when she faced Bai Chuanqing now, she was a little reflexive!
"Hmm."
Harukawa replied softly.
His gaze kept falling on the ground, and his expression was a little weird.
Harushi Shirakawa was also a little surprised by its reaction.
Did he really just look at the other party for a while, and then it consciously burrowed into the ground?
By the time Bai Chuanqing wanted to do it again, it was already a little late.
[Is it so sensitive?] 】
The aura of that filthy thing was very strange, it was not like an ordinary spirit, nor did it look like an existence like Hachi, but it was ..... Is it something even more exotic?
Even if it was him, he couldn't be sure.
"Shira, Shirakawa-senpai!"
A stammering voice sounded behind him.
Bai Chuanqing was a little big when she heard this, and finally stood up and turned her head to look at the two of them.
To be more precise, it's to look at the thick-eyebrowed, a little silly schoolgirl, Sagara Kairi.
Harukawa Shirakawa glanced at Suzu Akagi with questioning eyes.
Why is she here? 】
If there is anything that Bai Chuanqing was surprised, it must be that after entering this place, he saw not only Akagi Suzu, but also Sagara Hairi?
He wasn't an immortal, so of course he couldn't expect that.
So I forgot to cover up my appearance at the beginning, and when I blurred my appearance later, it was too late - he had such a recognizable face, and it was impossible for Sagara to be mistaken!
Not to mention, he's still wearing the uniform of Aoyama High School!
Now it is pointless to cover it up, it is better to admit it openly.
Akagi Suzu also understood Shirakawa Haru's eyes in seconds, and immediately spoke, explaining a little about her relationship with Sagara Kairi, as well as the cause and process of this incident.
Told all the information she knew to Harukawa Shirakawa.
"So..... Senior: Did you know Akagi-chan? ”
Sagara was silent for a moment before he said that.
"Yes."
Bai Chuanqing nodded, "And then again, Akagi Ling is also your senior sister, don't you know?" ”
“..... Well? ”
Sagara was stunned for a moment.
looked at Suzu Akagi.
"Akagi-chan, and I'm from the same school?"
As she spoke, Sagara's tone lowered a little.
"I said I didn't know Shirakawa's predecessors, and I said that it was too far away to meet......
Seeing this, Shirakawa Haru glanced at Akagi Suzu in surprise, haven't you two met before! Why is that?
Suzu Akagi was very guilty by Sagara Kairi's reaction.
In the final analysis, it is true that she is not sincere enough with her friends, not only lying, but also not wanting to meet Sagara Kairi because "she is too short".
"Hairi-chan, I ....."
Seeing that Sagara Hairi's head was getting lower and lower, Suzu Akagi blamed herself, and was even a little worried that Sagara Hairi would break off her friendship like this.
"I see! Akagi-chan, you must be here to surprise me, right! That's why it's been hidden! ”
It's just that at this time, Sagara Kairi had a smile on his face and said very happily.
He also hugged Suzu Akagi.
"Akagi-chan, thank you for your kindness!"
Suzu Akagi was full of confusion...... I didn't meet you because I was just a little inferior! Surprise, what's that? How did I not know?
She kind of wanted to open Sagara's mind and see what was in it to have such a strange brain circuit.
"Shhhh
Bai Chuanqing stretched out his fingers, and the expression on his face was a little solemn.
