Chapter 40: The Death of Little Momiji
Mr. Kobayashi continued my words and said, "So, you continue to assume that I will continue to send people to find the same people in the neighborhood, so you will send all the local people who have birthdays on September 9 to find out and guard them, and come to wait for the rabbit." ”
"Yes, that's it." I say.
Mr. Kobayashi smiled and said, "You are right, these practices of yours have no basis at all, and they are no different from gambling." However, it is clear that the heavens are in your favor, and the result is that you win. However, although there is no basis for this, your conjecture is reasonable, and you dare to make such a big bet because of your strong self-confidence. So it makes sense that you win. Therefore, I appreciate you more and more, bold and careful, dare to fight, confident and firm, and I am more and more sure that you are the most suitable person to succeed me! ”
"You've got a bit of a prize." I humbly said, "Actually, I've been worried all the time, and my heart is almost paralyzed. ”
Mr. Kobayashi smiled, "It's normal to be worried, but it's not normal not to worry." Being able to find the key point of the problem at once, so as to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle and solve the problem fundamentally, this is your strength. This style of doing things is very similar to me, and I really like it. Knife, let's not gamble, right? I really invite you to join us. As long as you are willing to join, you will be in charge of all our affairs, and even I will listen to you. ”
I said solemnly: "I don't doubt your sincerity, but I don't agree with your approach, so I won't accept your invitation." ”
Mr. Kobayashi said disappointedly: "So you still insist on continuing to bet on the second and third games with me?" ”
I said, "I was about to ask you what the second game was." ”
Mr. Kobayashi was about to speak, when Xiao Momiji next to him suddenly interjected and said, "Wait a minute, what did you mean by what you just said?" What's waiting for the rabbit? What September 9th birthday people? ”
This guy finally reacted, Xiao Hongye herself was also on her birthday on September 9th.
"You finally remembered?" I looked at Komiji with a smile, pointed at Mr. Kobayashi with my thumb and said, "What is the cause of your own death, or you can ask him now, maybe he will tell you." ”
Mr. Kobayashi said curiously: "What? ”
Who knew that Xiao Hongye suddenly didn't know how to ask, and he was speechless for a long time, and his face looked very twisted.
I simply said to Mr. Kobayashi on her behalf: "This guy has been dead for a few years, but he doesn't even know how he died." She's also on September 9th, and she just heard us talk about the gamble, so she probably thought that the cause of her death might have something to do with you. ”
Mr. Kobayashi smiled bitterly and said, "This is really possible." I only got this method 10 years ago, and it takes thirty-six souls who have the same birthday as the deceased to resurrect the dead. A few years ago, I used some people to do experiments, so it's very possible to accidentally hurt this girl. I'm sorry if that's the case. ”
I said to Momiji, "You can tell Mr. Kobayashi about your death." ”
Xiao Momiji said: "I went home for the Mid-Autumn Festival that year......"
I interrupted her and said, "You have to tell people about the specific time and place, right?" ”
Xiao Hongye thought for a while and said, "That was six years ago, and my hometown was in Gongjiazhai, which is not too far from here. At that time, I was working in a restaurant in the city, and during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I went back to my hometown for the Mid-Autumn Festival. At that time, I had a boyfriend in the city, and he went back with me. ”
"I remember that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone was very happy, chatting under the moon, and didn't go to sleep until after one o'clock."
"After that, I didn't know what happened."
"Anyway, when I woke up again, it wasn't in my own bed, but in a barren mountain and wilderness. Moreover, I have become the spirit state I am now. I don't know what happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it felt like I had broken my drink. ”
"Didn't you find out anything when you checked it yourself?" I asked.
"Nope." Xiao Hongye said, "Later, of course, I also went back to Gongjiazhai to inquire. It turned out that that night, not only did I die, but my boyfriend also died. But no one could say how we died, it looked as if we were asleep, and everyone said that we were evil. ”
"And what about your boyfriend's soul? Did you find him? I asked again.
"No, I've been looking for him all these years, but I don't have any clues. I've almost forgotten what he looked like now. Little Momiji said, "What, are you jealous?" ”
I ignored her, looked at Mr. Kobayashi and asked, "How is it, did you do it?" ”
Mr. Kobayashi groaned and said, "Listening to what she said, it really looks like someone forced the soul out in his sleep. This situation really looks like I sucked their souls out with a soul-searching gourd, just like I did to those villagers in Shangtang Village. However, I have also been to Gongjiazhai before, and I even want to test the people there. But I've never done anything like that there. ”
I frowned and said, "In that case, her death has nothing to do with you?" ”
Mr. Kobayashi shook his head.
I believe that Mr. Kobayashi would not lie about this kind of thing, and if this thing was really done by him, it is impossible for him not to dare to admit it. In this way, the cause of the little red leaf is still an unsolved riddle.
Now, even I was a little disappointed, I thought I could solve this riddle this time.
Xiao Hongye comforted me and said, "It's okay, anyway, I've been looking for this mystery for so many years, and I've almost given up." Actually, it's not bad now, I used to be lonely and unsettled, but now I follow you and Zhu'er, it's much better than before. As long as you don't chase me away in the future. ”
I rolled my eyes and said, "Whether you catch up or not, you're already relying on us to stay." ”
Mr. Kobayashi stood up from the ground and said, "I'm very sorry, but this question can't help you. I'm leaving now, I think you haven't had a good rest in the past two days, and now that this first game is over, I'll find a way to clear your suspicions and let you get out of here. When the time comes, you should go back and get some rest. ”
I also stood up and said, "You're leaving like this?" What about our second game? ”
Mr. Kobayashi smiled: "Don't be in such a hurry, you will find out soon." Anyway, I've got to get you back to 100 percent, that's fair, isn't it? For you, I have to at least win above board and right, so that you can be convinced, right? ”
I smiled, nodded, and said, "I want to warn you, if you lose one more round, you will lose our bet." ”
Mr. Kobayashi smiled: "Don't worry, what I said will definitely count, and I will never repay the debt." Also, I want to remind you not to use that kind of bad trick to kill yourself, it will be useless to me. ”
I smiled a little awkwardly.
After Mr. Kobayashi finished speaking, his body slowly became thinner, gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared.
At this time, Gundam came running over, punched me hard in the shoulder socket, and laughed: "You stinky boy, it turns out that you have already arranged for the fuck, and you will win silently, so that these people have been worried about you for two days!" ”
"Hey!" Zhang Zhengyi rushed up, pushed Gundam back several steps, and said crisply: "Can you be lighter?" If you hit someone like this, the master will hurt! ”
Everyone looked at Zhang Zhengyi in surprise.
Zhang Zhengyi smiled coquettishly, tilted his head and said playfully: "You guessed right, I am Zhu'er, hehe." ”
To be honest, it's really a bit disgusting for a big man to make such expressions and movements.
Little Momiji also vomited and said, "You better go back to your own body, it's really ...... like this."
"That's right." Zhu'er said, walked out of Zhang Zhengyi's body, and returned to her own body that was still lying in the corner.
Zhang Zhengyi was about to fall down softly, but Li Changdeng next to him hurriedly held on.
Lin Miaoyin glanced at me and said, "Men, always so self-righteous. ”
After saying that, he sat there against the wall and closed his eyes as if he was asleep.
