The purpose of Gao Lingkai and I coming here was originally because this matter was likely to involve the "supernatural", and last night we almost watched Shinichi Hashimoto disappear, and the existence of the "supernatural" was basically confirmed.

So to be honest, I also want to go to the place where Shinichi Hashimoto disappeared and search carefully, although I believe that it is unlikely to find any trace of Shinichi Hashimoto in that place now, but there is no other clue anyway, since Mrs. Bonn has brought it up, then we might as well push the boat.

So I nodded and said, "Just do what Mrs. Bonn said, let's not separate for now, let's go to the place where Shinichi Hashimoto disappeared and search again!" ”

Kishida Xiong's impression of me was originally better than that of Gao Lingkai and Li Junhyuk, and when he heard that I agreed with Mrs. Bonn's proposal, Kishida Xiong couldn't help but cast a grateful look at me, and said: "And this Gao Lijun is also a good person!" ”

Gao Lingkai couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a smile: "Yes, we are all bad people, and you Japanese are good people, so you Japanese will deny the massacre and whitewash the war, and the two atomic bombs can't wake you up!" ”

His words were a bit vicious, and indirectly satirized the "morality" of Americans.

Fortunately, he was speaking in Chinese, and Kishida Xiong couldn't understand it, although he knew that it was not a good word, he couldn't open his mouth to fight back, just stared at Gao Lingkai with his eyes.

Professor Bonn didn't know if he understood Gao Lingkai's words, anyway, he ignored Gao Lingkai and said directly: "Since everyone agrees with my wife's proposal, let's go to the place where Hashimoto-kun disappeared last night!" ”

"It's best to find two tools to bring with you!" I say.

"I saw two old shovels in the supermarket last night, probably left behind by the previous search and rescue personnel!" Lee Jun-hyuk said.

Before we could ask about the two shovels in the corner of the supermarket, Li Junhe had already turned around and walked into the supermarket, and came out after a while, and sure enough, he had two old shovels in his hands.

Not only were the shovels rusty, but the shovel heads were almost useless, but they were still better than anything else for plowing.

Kishida Xiong took a shovel from Li Junhyuk first, and the rest of the shovel was held by Li Junhyuk himself, and a group of six people walked to the west of the town.

Because we were afraid that our backpacks would be lost again, we all carried our backpacks on our backs.

But when we walked to the mudslide-covered area, we couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

The whole area is messy, and at night there are enough shadows to look at, but when you look at it again during the day, you can only see messy, and you can't find the place where Shinichi Hashimoto disappeared last night.

"I remember that the bulging shadow we saw last night was a broken beam, let's find that beam first, as long as there is a broken katana sword from Yuo Kishida underneath, then we are in the right place!" I say.

The rest of the group nodded in agreement.

Li Junhe said: "Let the Japanese find the place where the two of them walked in last night, there should be their footprints there!" The three of us will stand here for a while, and when the time comes, it will be easier to find the intersection of the two groups of people! ”

He did a good job, but he was too lazy to talk to the Japanese, so he was speaking in Chinese.

I hurriedly translated it for him. Kishida nodded again and again, and immediately followed the footprints he and Hashimoto Shinichi left last night to the north, and the Bonn couple followed behind Kishida after a little discussion.

The three of us stood in front of the footprints we had left last night, and when Kishida had found the right place and started walking towards the mudslide-covered area, we looked through his horizon and found a familiar bulge.

So we started right away, looking at the bulge and going inside.

Kishida was a little closer to the place, still arriving before us.

But he didn't dig at once, but waited for us to come to us, and then he pale and walked down the depression.

We had already seen last night that the bulge was a beam that was cocked at one end.

At this moment, in broad daylight, I can see more clearly.

There are also several beams connected to each side of the beam, and the bottom of the beam is filled with mud, so it looks like a lot of it looks like it is from a distance.

The underside of the beams had been dug up, forming a large depression, and a broken katana lay quietly in the depression, proving that it was in this depression that Shinichi Hashimoto disappeared last night.

I understand why Kishida waited for us to arrive before going down the depression to dig, and at this moment, in his heart, he must be full of fear of this depression that swallowed Shinichi Hashimoto.

I was also terrified last night, but now it's daylight, and my mind is relatively stable.

So I reached out to take the other shovel from Lee Jun Hyuk's hand, but Lee Jun Hyuk shook his head at me, jumped into the depression by himself, and began digging with Kishida Yu.

A few of us stood on the edge of the depression, and although I didn't feel any danger, such as the cold aura that ghosts must have, I was still a little scared, for fear that in the blink of an eye, Lee Jun-hyuk and Kishida Xiong would fall and disappear before our eyes.

Gao Lingkai must have been as nervous as I was, but the Bonn couple had not personally experienced the disappearance of Shinichi Hashimoto last night, and they both looked relatively relaxed, even full of anticipation.

It's a pity that it didn't take long for Lee Jun-hyuk and Kishida Xiong to shovel up all the floating soil in the depression, revealing the bluestone paved street below.

"Are you sure that Hashimoto-kun disappeared here?" Mrs. Bonn asked.

"Definitely!" I nodded affirmatively.

"That's weird!" Bonn said, couldn't help jumping off the depression and stomping on the bluestone slab with his foot, "This ground is so strong, how can it be...... A man has fallen from here? ”

"Will it be ......?"

Mrs. Bonn opened her mouth to speak, but only a few words were spoken, and then she closed her mouth again.

"If Mrs. Bonn has any thoughts, she may as well say them! I don't think any assumptions are ridiculous in the face of such a situation! I said.

Mrs. Bonn nodded and said, "Before we came here, we did some research, and heard a legend about the gates of hell from many people's mouths!" ”

"The Gates of Hell?" Li Junhe couldn't help but interject.

"Yes!" Professor Bonn walked up from the depression, "Legend has it that in this large mountainous area around the town of Montura, there is a hell gate, and a long time ago, a hell monster once ran out of the hell gate, this monster raged in the world for a while, and then suddenly disappeared! ”

We were all able to listen attentively, including Lee Jun-hyuk and Kishida Yu, who also came up from the depression and stood beside Professor Bonn to listen.

But Professor Bonn had only said these few words, and then he closed his mouth and stopped abruptly.

Gao Lingkai couldn't help but ask: "What happened later?" ”

"No later!" Professor Bonn shook his head, "That's all the legend goes, because the hell monster never appeared again, so ...... This legend has become a myth from a long time ago! ”

"Mrs. Bonn meant to think that the gates of hell were probably in this town, or even ...... It's in this depression? I asked.

As soon as these words came out, several people agreed, and they all took a few steps back, a little further away from the depression.

"This ...... I'm just guessing! Mrs. Bonn shook her head, "Because the legend is so old that no one knows where the legendary Gates of Hell are!" ”

"Gates of Hell!" I couldn't help but shake my head, "I don't think there really is hell in this world!" ”

"I don't think there's hell either!" Professor Bonn immediately nodded in agreement, "We think that ghosts are nothing more than brain waves left over from human death, and the so-called souls go to hell after death is just the imagination of the ancients!" So I had a discussion with my wife, and we thought that if the legend of the Gates of Hell was true, it was probably ......"

He laughed self-deprecatingly as he said this.

"Probably what?" I asked.

"It's likely that there is a space-time portal in this place, as the science fiction movie says!"

"A space-time portal?" Gao Lingkai couldn't help but laugh, "The two of you think...... The Japanese who disappeared last night, and even everyone who disappeared in this town before, all entered the gate of time and space? That's, isn't it? ”

He was speaking in Chinese. Although Professor Bonn can understand Chinese, he is afraid that Professor Bonn may not be able to understand the "too" sentence behind him.

But his laughter made the Bonnes blush.

Mrs. Bonn preemptively said: "You may think that our idea is ridiculous, but we have first come into contact with ...... When a person is possessed by a ghost, we have also thought that the person is mentally ill, and someone tells us that the person is likely to be possessed by a ghost, and we are just like you, laughing and thinking that people are ridiculous! ”

Mrs. Bonn's words immediately reminded me that the reason why the couple was obsessed with the study of the "supernatural" was that they had personally encountered a ghost-possessed person.

And "ghost possession", to be honest, can only be regarded as pediatric compared to other "supernatural" I have encountered.

But of course, I didn't say this, but nodded and said: "I don't think Mrs. Bonn's assumption is completely unreasonable, after all, the gate of time and space is at least more scientific than the gate of hell!" ”

That's my truth. And the hypothesis of the "Gate of Time and Space" was, to be honest, flashed through my mind last night.

I even thought that several waves of more than one hundred and fifty people in this town had all gone to other dimensions through the "Time and Space Gate". Otherwise, the large-scale search organized by the government of country T would not have been able to find even the slightest clue.

Now that I heard Mr. and Mrs. Bonn say that there was a legend of the "Gate of Hell" in this place, the assumption of the "Gate of Time and Space" is not unfounded.

Turning his head to look at Gao Lingkai again, although he put away his smile, he still shook his head again and again.

Li Junhe gritted his teeth even more and said, "What is the gate of time and space, I don't believe it!" ”

He jumped into the depression again, and simply used a shovel to warp several bluestone slabs in the depression, and then Kishida Yu also jumped down, and the two of them swung the shovel together and continued to dig down.
