Chapter 161: Sakurada Girls' School
An Beimo sat next to me and showed me the way, and drove out for dozens of kilometers, and I gradually adapted to this opposite driving mode.
The road was quite smooth, and An Beimo asked me to concentrate on driving, ensure safety, and leave the matter of finding a target to her. With An Beimo's keen eyes, I am very relieved about this.
It was really remote along the way, and there were not many vehicles encountered. The terrain on both sides of the mountain road is gradually lowering, lush and green, and there are occasionally some houses, which are also scattered everywhere.
After walking along the main road for more than half an hour, I saw that the sky was getting darker, and I couldn't help but feel a little worried, afraid that I would not be able to find the old school. An Beimo was looking everywhere with a telescope as always, and it didn't have any impact because of the dark sky.
After a while, An Beimo suddenly said, "Drive slowly!" ”
This is a discovery! I hurriedly slowed down and followed An Beimo's gaze to look out.
Through the faint sunlight, I saw a ruined building rising among the trees not far away. It's just that it's far away, and I can't see it clearly.
An Beimo saw more clearly than me with a telescope, and she whispered, "It should be there!" After a while, An Beimo said again: "Strange! ”
When I heard that I found it, I was glad that I heard An Beimo say something strange, and I couldn't help asking, "What's strange?" ”
An Beimo said: "Judging from the appearance, it is true that it is an abandoned school. It would take at least a few decades to see the extent of the abandonment, and the surrounding trees were almost covering the entire school. With this kind of sight, I don't understand how the Japanese student can see the inside of the school building. How much more can you see the clothes on people's bodies? ”
An Beimo was right, but I looked at the mountain road in front of me and thought about it: "The road ahead is still increasing, maybe it is in the high place in front, looking condescendingly, you can see the situation inside the school building." ”
An Beimo looked at the road ahead with a telescope, and said after a while: "Maybe!" But I think it's a bit of a coincidence. ”
I understand what An Beimo means, but in fact, I also have some doubts in my heart.
"Since you're here, let's go and have a look." I said, "No matter what happens inside, as long as we are careful, we can get out of the way." It will be dark later, which is just the right time to move. ”
An Beimo didn't say anything, and continued to observe the situation around the old school. Ten minutes later, she said, "There's a path in front that stretches into the forest, which should be the way that used to lead to that school, so let's go in." ”
It was getting darker and darker, and I hesitated and didn't turn on my headlights. Following An Beimo's prompt, I turned into a small road. It was overgrown with weeds and the roads were bumpy, but luckily our car was able to walk.
"Drive slower!" An Beimo suddenly reminded me: "Don't get too close, there are people in the building!" ”
"What's the situation?" I asked immediately.
An Beimo replied: "There was a fire flashing in the building just now, it should be someone using a lighter." ”
To conceal myself, I parked my car in an inconspicuous place when I was less than a kilometer away from the old school. For the rest of the way, An Beimo and I walked over.
We changed out of our dazzling coats, put on self-defense daggers, grabbed flashlights, and waited until it was a little darker before we quietly approached the huge old building.
On the way, I looked at the ground around me, and it didn't look like people often came here, and the weeds were growing uncontrollably, almost covering the path.
This made me even more puzzled, I couldn't think of the point of using such a remote place as a base. Could it be that the Japanese gangs held hostages? This is too blatant, are the Japanese underworld forces so arrogant?
This is not good in foreign countries, there is too little information, and there are no information channels. Unlike at home, where there is a strong government support, here we are completely alone. The only ones you can rely on are your teammates.
Closer to the old school, I could get a glimpse of what the abandoned school looked like by the setting sun. In fact, there is only one main building, which is six stories high. In the middle is the main building, with a small podium on each side. Moreover, the two podiums are of different sizes, and the overall appearance is very asymmetrical, which makes people feel awkward when they look at it.
There is also a small playground at the back of the building, and the grass is dense and it is no longer visible its original appearance. There was only one volleyball net, standing alone among the grass.
The walls of the school are also covered with grass, and some of them have broken gaps.
When we came to the front, we saw the main entrance of the school facing the path. The gate was an ordinary fence iron gate, rusty, with iron chains hanging from it, and it was firmly locked from the inside by a large lock.
An Beimo and I confirmed that there was no one guarding, and crept behind the wall next to the iron gate. I peeked through the door, and the dark building was gloomy, and all the windows were welded with thumb-thick iron bars, making it look like a prison.
Is this really a place for people? I was speculating in my heart. I don't know what's going on inside, and I don't dare to use a flashlight yet. But judging from the current situation, it doesn't look like there are people inside.
However, I don't doubt An Beimo's eyesight, because of uncertain things, An Beimo will not say it. Since she had just seen a flash of fire, she would not be mistaken.
I gave way to the back and replaced An Beimo to investigate. Just when I moved behind An Beimo, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be words on the wall behind me.
By this time it was completely dark, and the moonlight cast a bleak white on the surroundings. In the darkness, the main school building was left with a huge black silhouette, lurking in the darkness like a giant.
Scenes like this always remind me of the horror scenes in movies, especially in Japanese movies, where many horror scenes seem to be shot in old abandoned buildings like this.
The fonts on the walls were obscured by the weeds hanging from the top of the walls, and I wondered if this school had been featured in some horror movie.
Slowly pushing away the weeds, I saw the word "school". Since I couldn't make a loud noise, I deliberately slowed down and looked at the words word by word, and after reading a few words, I realized that the abandoned school was originally called "Sakurada Women's High School".
I don't remember much of the name.
Before coming to Japan, I searched the Internet for some information about Japan. Among them, there are a lot of related news about supernatural events in Japan, such as haunted houses, horror hospitals, and horror schools, all of which are said to be true. And many legends about the supernatural are still terrifying unsolved mysteries.
I also watched it as a story at the time, and I didn't care about the real or the fake, and it was quite bluffing to watch.
Looking at this abandoned girls' school, I recalled the online news I had watched. In Japan's long-standing horror legends, I have never heard the name of this university, and it seems that it is an ordinary school that has been abandoned for many years.
To be on the safe side, I compiled the name of the school into a message and sent it to Hugo's phone.
After that, An Beimo and I both turned off our mobile phones and slowly moved around the campus fence to the left, and we were going to find a suitable place to enter the investigation.
There are many strange and terrifying legends about Japan, and for this magical country, these seem to have become a part of their culture and have a long history.
It is said that Japan also has a special television program dedicated to digging up those terrifying supernatural events to entertain the public. Many viewers who recorded live were so frightened that they screamed, trembled, and burst into tears, but such a program has extremely high ratings.
If this is changed to China, it will definitely be banned content, and if it really scares the audience out, the TV station will have to go around.
An Beimo and I went around to the side of the campus and found a gap in the wall. After confirming that there was no one behind the wall, I asked An Beimo to lift her up.
After An Beimo observed for a while, he jumped in lightly. I ran one by one, stepped on the wall and jumped with strength, and climbed the wall with one hand. One arm struggled upward, and it was easy to turn in.
Beneath the wall was knee-high weeds, and we cats moved around as fast as we approached the podium. Soon, we quietly came to the door of the podium.
I leaned my ear to the door, listened to the movement inside the building, and after a minute, made sure there was nothing unusual inside.
At this time, An Beimo gently patted me on the shoulder and pointed to the ground. I squatted down to take a closer look, and it turned out that there were many messy footprints on the ground at the door, and I could see that the time left was not long, indicating that there were indeed people entering and leaving here.
The two heavy wooden doors of the podium were closed, I squatted and moved closer, nodded to An Beimo, and then leaned on the door with one hand, slowly moving forward.
The gate does not move!
As we've seen just now, all the windows in the whole building are welded with iron bars, and it's impossible to get in through the windows. At the moment, the door is also locked from the inside, and it is a problem to get in now.
An Beimo took out a flashlight and covered the front end with a piece of black yarn, and then turned on the flashlight switch. The light became dim, but it was enough to see what was in front of you. An Beimo took a look up and down the gate to see how it was locked.
I'm in charge of guarding the surroundings, and I'm not good at wringing doors and picking locks.
Soon An Beimo found a way to lock the door. It turns out that the door of this old building still follows the old method of the door latch, and through the crack in the door, An Beimo has found the location of the door latch.
took out a thin thread from her pocket, An Beimo reached through the crack in the door, and she didn't know how she made it, so she quickly tied the latch behind the door with a thin thread.
She first pulled the thin thread down along the crack of the door, so that the thin thread was tied tightly on the latch, and then lifted it up along the crack of the door, with a soft sound, the latch was lifted directly by An Beimo through the door.
I watched sideways, and this skillful technique was obviously not the first time I had done it.
An Beimo carried the latch of the door, and slowly pushed it on the door with his other hand. The sound of the gate creaking is especially harsh in such a quiet night.
An Beimo stopped pushing the door, we listened to the surroundings, as well as the movement in the door, to confirm that it was not found, and An Beimo continued to push again.
It took us five minutes to push open the door to the gap where one person could enter.
I helped An Beimo hold the open door, An Beimo reached in first, grabbed the latch, and then dodged in.
I made sure there were no anomalies around, and then I followed me into the door. The door closed much better than it had just been, and there was no sound.
Gently lowering the latch, An Beimo tore off the black cloth in front of the flashlight and looked around.
It was a wide porch, but it was full of miscellaneous items on both sides, tables, chairs, cardboard boxes, etc., covered with thick dust, and cobwebs hanging from all over the place, and no one had touched them for many years.
