A second later, the lush grass at his feet staggered.

The fox poked out the tip of its nose first, and then arched it out, and it looked up at Shiraishi, the tip of its tail wagged, and said hello, "Huh." ”

Shiraishi crouched down and rubbed its furry head twice:

"Find out if there is a way into the courtyard, there should be people in and out there recently."

The fox snorted again, then shook its fur, pressed against the ground, and began to sniff around in the grass.

It was too small, and the grass was too lush, and it disappeared in a flash.

After more than ten seconds, Bai Shi suddenly heard a voice nearby: "Wang! ”。

“…… Woof? Shiraishi almost thought it was discovered by a neighbor's dog.

At this moment, the animal that made the sound sensed his hesitation, and the grass rattled again, and a white mass jumped up from the grass pile five or six meters away, and fell to the ground again, like a fluffy signal flare.

Only then did Shiraishi make sure that it was a fox who called him...... That's right, it's a canine, and it's not surprising that a dog can bark.

After the fox stumbled a few times, Shiraishi walked up to it.

This is the middle section of the courtyard wall, a Gothic iron fence, which has long since been converted into a cement wall with barbed wire on top.

As soon as Shiraishi approached the base of the wall, the fox immediately looked at him, raised his paw and put it on a clump of grass lying on the ground, and slapped it twice.

In fact, without its prompt, Shiraishi can also see that something is wrong here.

This clump of grass obviously has no outside spirit, probably because it has been stepped on more often. If you look closely, you can see that there is a small door of the same color as the fence hidden behind the grass.

The small door is about half a meter high, and the top meets the wall with a bearing shaft that can be lifted.

Who is so creative, doesn't go to a good place, and drills dog holes here every day...... Shiraishi muttered as he slammed down on the ground, wearing his cool and domineering mask and well-cut suit, and slipped through the hole without any baggage.

As he climbed, he glanced down at the ground.

Sure enough, directly below the small door, a line of grassless land was exposed, and the soil surface was even smooth - this is the effect that can only appear after the small door has been opened and closed many times and the soil has been tamped and smoothed.

It seems that there are really people in the house.

Walk through the small gate and you'll find the inside of the courtyard.

Shiraishi stood up and looked up ahead, four or five meters away, there was the gloomy bungalow.

There was an inconspicuous side door on the wall directly opposite here, and Shiraishi walked over and pushed it tentatively, and the door creaked and slowly slid open—it was unlocked.

Is it because the police occasionally come to investigate supernatural events, and the person hiding inside is worried that locking it will arouse suspicion, so he keeps the door wide open?

Shiraishi is unknown. In fact, he privately felt that it might be that the person hiding here was influenced by some kind of science, forgetting that he still had the basic option of locking the door.

He knocked off the dirt on his feet at the door, entered the house, and closed the door with his backhand.

When he looked up, a monster with a dragon's head and two wings on its back was close at hand, and its hideous fangs almost hit his face.

Shiraishi subconsciously leaned back, and the back of his head almost hit the door frame. While dodging, he immediately realized that this was not a "ghost" in front of him, but a statue that could not be moved.

…… Tsk, this taste.

Shiraishi jumped twice out of the corner of his eye, and lightly bypassed it, following the corridor and entering a place similar to the hall on the first floor.

After walking this section, he realized that the statue just now was just the beginning.

Along the way, countless statues of people and demons, demons and animals, and the combination of humans and animals stood on both sides, and the scene was terrifying, and those who knew that this was an artist's mansion, and those who didn't know thought that they were heading for hell.

Shiraishi only learned from the information that the male owner was an artist, but he didn't expect it to be this kind of artist, and he was really taken aback just now......

The fox at his feet followed him quietly, occasionally looking up at him, as if urging him to give orders.

However, Shiraishi didn't plan to meet the people hiding here directly, he wanted to search the house first to see if he could trigger the task of "Solving the Wandering Spirits".

If not, then let the fox find the person hiding in the house, and he will go directly to the police.

In this way, when the police catch the person who is hiding, Shiraishi only needs to eavesdrop on his ears under the guise of Professor Hirota, and he can directly "find out the truth about the haunted house", which is very labor-saving.

Looking for it one by one, I thought that this Sugie house was so big that it would take a long time to search.

But in practice, Shiraishi found that the speed of the search was actually very fast.

- When the hostess left this sad place with her children, she moved very thoroughly, and the things she didn't want were thrown away in time, and almost nothing was left in the house, except for some large pieces of furniture, and all the rooms were empty.

As long as Shiraishi goes in and walks around, he will soon be able to exit without finding anything.

He also asked the fox to keep an eye out for a secret door in the room, but the fox never moved, and he didn't know if it couldn't smell it, or if it really didn't.

When he found the second floor, Shiraishi was walking in the corridor when he suddenly felt the fox hit him on the calf.

As soon as I looked down, I saw it swoop into the room next to it.

The door was open and unshut. Shiraishi waited for a second, but he didn't hear the fox's scream, and it seemed that it was safe inside for the time being, so he followed in.

Before he could cover the door with his backhand, he suddenly felt the light in the corridor become a little brighter, and when he looked back, he saw another flickering light source approaching this direction around the corner.

Shiraishi quickly closed the door to a slit, crouched down and looked through the slit, and after a few seconds, he held his breath and saw an unusually dry and slender man holding a candlestick and pushing a food cart in the other, floating past the doorway. The man was wearing an old black cloth dress, and her hair was waist-length and covered her face, and Shiraishi couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, only from the way she walked, she felt that it seemed to be a woman.

…… Well, it could also be a female ghost.

I don't know where the other party is going, Baishi wants to follow and take a look, but at this time, there is a very light "pop" and "pop" slapping sound next to him, and when he turns his head, he sees the fox pounced next to a cabinet, and is gently knocking the bottom drawer with his paws.

What's in there?
