Chapter 8: A New Strange Place

Gou Ming took over the imperial guard, and immediately felt a burst of warmth spreading from his palm, warm, as if the afternoon sun was shining on his body.

When he was touched by the resentful spirit of the senior sister before, most of the remaining coldness was dispelled at once.

Gou Ming lowered his head slightly, picked up the imperial guard and looked at it.

The entire piece is composed of gold and red, with a golden sun motif embroidered in the center, and four traditional Chinese characters 'Amaterasu Gomei'.

The upper pocket is fastened by a thin rope that resembles a golden ear of rice. Even in the darkness of the night, the entire omamori still exudes a faint golden glow, and at first glance it is not ordinary.

"Add ......"

Gou Ming just wanted to thank him, but when he looked up, he found that the pretty female ninja who was still standing in front of him just now had disappeared without a trace.

If it weren't for the constant warmth from the imperial guard in his hand, Gou Ming would have thought that the pretty figure just now was his hallucination.

Gou Ming shook his head helplessly.

"It's like a ninja."

It's just that Megumi Kato's ninja image is far from what he remembers.

Flashbangs, mechanical crossbows, rappelling equipment...... How does it look more like a modern agent like 007 and Mission Impossible?

It's just that the dress is so trendy.

Times have really changed.

Gou Ming tidied through his backpack, only to find that a crowbar and a flashlight had been lost in room 1414 in a panic.

He couldn't help but feel a little pain in his flesh.

It's just that he doesn't dare to let him go back to get it now, so he can only consider himself unlucky.

Back at my restaurant, it was already around 3 o'clock.

After a simple wash, Gou Ming lay on the bed and sank down, reflecting carefully on this search operation.

After calming down, Gou Ming immediately recalled that there was something very important missing in Senior Sister's room.

What about her laptop?

If it was taken away as evidence by the police or as a relic by a family member, why didn't the other things be touched and only the laptop was taken?

This obviously does not make sense.

There is a good chance that the laptop of the senior sister was taken by someone else.

Gou Ming has a hunch that this person is likely to be the key to solving the strange incident!

The names of two people immediately appeared in Gou Ming's mind:

An Yi Lun also, Ying Li Li......

He thought about it and added another name: Megumi Kato.

Megumi Kato saved him, and he was grateful, but Megumi Kato's ability and suspicious behavior of lingering at Tamagawa's apartment at midnight made Goming list her as the first suspect.

However, in this way, it is difficult for Miss Ninja to use her mysterious whereabouts as a breakthrough.

Thinking of this, Gou Ming immediately picked up the mobile phone on the side and searched.

He first typed the name 'Hideri Kashiwagi' into the search bar.

In the original work, Ying Li Li made his debut as a fan artist under this pen name.,It can be said that this pen name is more famous than Ying Li Li's real name.。

However, the news that popped up gave Gou Ming a hint of foreboding.

Kashiwagi Eiri's blog hasn't been updated for two years, and below the blog are messages from a large number of fans urging to update.

Some information circulating on the Internet also shows that Ying Lili has not only not updated her blog, but has not even had any new works since two years ago, as if the well-known artist had disappeared out of thin air.

Gou Ming immediately typed the real name of Ying Li Li in the search bar.

The bright red titles immediately confirmed Gou Ming's conjecture.

"British Ambassador to Japan Marcus Loses His Beloved Daughter! 》

"The daughter of a diplomat committed suicide by cutting her wrists at home! 》

"****** expresses condolences to the Spencer family. 》

"Marcus Spencer resigns as ambassador to Japan! 》

Dead, dead!?

Ying Li Li actually died too!?

Gou Ming looked at the phone and was instantly stunned.

There are three heroines in the original work, two of them hung up, and one became a ninja...... Gou Ming felt that the world was simply crazy.

Gou Ming hurriedly searched carefully.

However, perhaps the British ambassador to Japan is involved, and the information on the Internet is very tightly blocked.

The report only said that Ying Lili committed suicide by cutting her wrists, but the reason for the suicide was not disclosed at all.

However, the related news after that attracted Gou Ming's attention.

It is said that Mr. Marcus resigned from his post as ambassador to Japan in grief after the loss of his beloved daughter, sold his mansion in Sakura City at a low price to a wealthy local man named Mitsui Ryutai, and then left this sad place with his wife and returned to Britain.

Mitsui Ryutai, who bought the mansion at only half the market price, was so happy that he held a banquet at the mansion that night.

The unexpected happened.

Halfway through the banquet, all the guests fled in a panic, and there were even a few stampedes, but there were not many guests, and the incident was not serious.

Guests unanimously said they had fled after seeing a horrific fire in the mansion.

However, after a careful investigation by the firefighters, it was found that not even a single piece of paper was burned in the mansion.

Since many of the guests who came to the banquet were high-ranking people in Sakura City, the details of the accident were eventually blocked, and after multiple investigations, the case could only be closed with gas leaks, and the guests had collective hallucinations.

The hapless Mr. Mitsui Ryutai seemed to have been greatly frightened that night and went straight crazy.

The doctor could not diagnose the specific cause, and finally wrote down the diagnosis on the medical record that "the patient inhaled an overdose of gas, which caused brain damage".

After this accident, the mansion that once belonged to the Ying Li family was completely abandoned.

Bite!

Just after Gou Ming finished checking the report, the system actually jumped out.

- Discover a new spooky location: Abandoned Diplomat's Mansion (2 stars)

- In the huge ruined mansion, the painter girl who has become a resentful spirit is using her own blood as a dye to paint a picture of despair......

- Location: 5-chome 18, Sakano-cho

- Quest Hint: Go to the event location after 1 a.m. and you'll find new clues.

Gou Ming couldn't help but open his mouth wide and looked at the system panel in front of him.

Now he'll be busy again tomorrow night.

Putting down the phone, Gou Ming, who was exhausted, quickly fell asleep.

The next day, in the alarm of the mobile phone, Gou Ming opened his sour eyes.

After washing up, he hastily ate two pieces of bread, and Gou Ming opened the door and was about to go to school.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a dark blue uniform with the words 'power station' embroidered on the chest of the uniform happened to walk towards this side, and immediately waved his hand after seeing Gou Ming.

'Miserable! How did you run into this guy early in the morning? ’

Gou Ming's face suddenly became a little difficult to look at.

However, he couldn't pretend not to see it, so he reluctantly smiled and greeted.

"Good morning, Mr. Hiraoka."

Hiraoka came to Gou Ming and said with a smile on his face.

"Gou Ming, I was just looking for you. You should have paid your electricity bill for these three months. ”

"Mr. Hiraoka, I've been a little short of money lately, can you give me a few days?"

Gou Ming said with some embarrassment.

Hiraoka's face suddenly crumpled.
