Chapter 60: A Strange Mission
"Also, maybe it's a member of the basketball club who is working on it......"
The monk retorted in a low voice, but his confidence was slightly insufficient.
"Those seniors of the archery club thought so too. But when they went around to the main entrance of the basketball hall, they found that the main entrance was locked, and the lights in the basketball hall were not turned on......"
The glasses man's voice became more and more somber.
The monk couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and there was some dodging in his eyes.
"The seniors felt weird. Someone suggested going to the teacher on duty, and someone suggested taking a peek through the window directly under the wall......"
Accompanied by the gloomy voice of the man with glasses, the pupils of the monk's head involuntarily dilated.
So they decided to go their separate ways, with the others going to the teacher and the two daring seniors going to take a peek. However, when the two seniors looked in through the airscreen, they found ......"
The eyed man suddenly stopped talking, and his eyes looked straight at the monk's head, and his eyes made him panic.
"Fat, what did you find?"
The monk couldn't help but ask, and even he didn't notice that his voice had a hint of trill.
"The basketball is bouncing on its own! But there was not a single figure on the basketball court! Not a single one! β
With the voice of the man with glasses, the monk's head became more and more nervous, at this moment.
"Ahh
The man with glasses suddenly leaned into the monk's head and yelled in his ear.
"Ah~~!!"
The monk's head was immediately frightened and screamed.
The man with glasses suddenly burst out laughing, his smile full of pride.
The other guests in the restaurant glared at the two of them.
The eyed man hurriedly restrained his smile, pulled the monk's head and bowed to everyone.
When everyone withdrew their gaze, the man with the eyes met the monk's grumbling gaze and patted him on the shoulder with a gloating face.
"I lied to you, and you took it seriously. Our school has only been built for less than two years, how can there be resentful spirits~~"
"That's not necessarily~~"
However, the man with glasses didn't notice that Gou Ming, who had been listening to him, suddenly showed an unfathomable smile on his face......
After sending all the guests away, Gou Ming cleaned the restaurant and then opened the system panel.
Sure enough, a new strange event appeared.
- Midnight Basketball Stadium (0 stars)
ββIn the dead of night, the sound of basketball slapping sounded again in the empty basketball hall......
- Reward: A random recipe.
'0 stars? How can there still be 0 star missions? β
Gou Ming asked with a surprised expression.
- 0 stars represent this strange event, and the host will not encounter threatening spirits.
'No danger? So the difficulty is 0 stars? β
- The host can be understood in this way.
It was the first time Gou Ming had encountered such a task.
In his mind, strange events are basically bound to encounter resentful spirits, except for the unthreatening afterimage, even the earthbound spirits are in certain danger, not to mention the resentful spirits.
But Gou Ming soon remembered the girl who had been standing silently behind his sister.
'Will this strange event only encounter an afterimage or a good spirit?' β
Gou Ming asked casually.
- Ask the host to find out on their own.
Gou Ming shrugged, he didn't expect the system to answer.
After completing a few strange events, Gou Ming more or less figured out the rules of the system. When it comes to strange events, the system will only give a rough hint, and the hidden truth needs to be found by himself.
Since it is a welfare task without danger, there is no reason not to take it.
I took the task. β
Gou Ming said.
Unexpectedly, the system gave a very strange prompt.
- Quest Tips: To find the truth about the past and unravel the obsession of the deceased, arrive at the indoor basketball hall of Seirin High School at 12 a.m. and follow the steps below.
- Buy a white candle, light it in the center of the basketball court, close the door, and take out a basketball and tap it in the center circle.
- Don't turn on the lights. Anything happens, don't stop playing the basketball, and don't go out of the middle circle, unless the candle goes out on its own, there is a possibility of an unknown anomaly. Remember!!
'Wait! In other words, there is still a possibility that this strange event will mutate!? β
Gou Ming immediately noticed the problem.
And yet the system answered him like this.
- As long as the host strictly follows the system prompts, there will be no accidents.
I thought it was a simple welfare event, but now it seems that things are not so simple.
Gou Ming subconsciously touched the note book in his pocket, and for some reason, the cold touch of his fingertips made him feel slightly relieved.
"I just got the recipe for stir-fried green cabbage, if you solve the strange incident and get a new recipe, it should be no problem to appease Kasumigaoka......
After thinking about it for a while, Gou Ming chose to accept the task.
'But Seirin's name sounds familiar......
Gou Ming suddenly remembered, isn't this the school of the protagonist in "Kuroko (Cross Out) Superpower Basketball"?
Looking at the time, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening.
Gou Ming immediately began to prepare.
He first searched for the location of Seirin High School.
The electronic map shows that Chengrin University is also located in the city, and the straight-line distance from his restaurant is about 3.4 kilometers, and it will not take more than 30 minutes to take the subway, including the time to buy a ticket.
Then Gou Ming took out his school bag, checked the flashlight and crowbar inside, and took out a white candle from the cabinet that had been prepared to prevent a power outage, and put it in.
Finally, Gou Ming touched the omamori on his chest and the note book in his pocket.
You're all set!
Gou Ming walked out of the restaurant, locked the door, and headed for the subway station.
It's the weekend, and there are a lot of people traveling, and even though it's 10:30 p.m., there are still many passengers on the subway, mostly young couples.
Surrounded by a group of dog food suppliers, Gou Ming picked up his mobile phone and began to search for news related to Chengrin University.
However, Chengrin High School has only been established for two years, and there is no big news at present, and there are no strange rumors that have been widely circulated.
The search seems to have stalled at the beginning.
Gou Ming sighed and put away his phone. It happened that the subway also arrived, and Gou Ming got off the subway with the crowd.
In addition to the subway station, Gou Ming followed the navigation to a high school, and there were several large gilded characters hanging on the wall outside the gate - private Chengrin High School.
The walls of the building are painted as white as new, and the cherry blossom trees that protrude from the fence scatter pink petals to the street outside the building, and the trees that have been built are lush and green.
Crash!
A gust of wind blows, and a poster flies in front of you.
Gou Ming grabbed it casually, picked it up and saw that it was a new flyer for the baseball club.
Compared with the previously abandoned St. Juliana Hospital, Seirin University, which has been established for less than two years, is full of vitality.
