Chapter 24: Number 078 - Everywhere You Are(4)

"We'll look into that. But in Miss Zheng's case, whether it is a supernatural event or not, she should receive psychological counseling. ā€

"I—I see...... I'll talk to her mom and dad ......."

On 21 December 2013, a search was conducted inside the school and found nothing unusual about the bird's nest and the broken amulet.

On December 22, 2013, the school surveillance video was obtained, and there was no abnormality.

On January 13, 2014, the whereabouts of the client nearly half a year before the dispatch were completed and the client was contacted. Audio file 07820140113.wav.

"Long time no see, Miss Zheng, how are you feeling lately?"

"It's okay already, thank you, I'm much better with the amulet. And psychiatrists...... The psychiatrist talked to me that I might have been influenced by horror movies. Anyway, thank you for the amulet. I...... Can I buy a few more? I thought, thinking about keeping it for later...... The doctor also said that it would be much better if there was a psychological support. ā€

"Absolutely. Before we do, though, let's talk about something else. We have asked you this time because we have some questions for you. ā€

"Ah, you ask."

"In October 2013, you and Miss Duan participated in the tourism festival here in Minqing City, right?"

"Well, yes. We went to see the float parade and went to the exhibition hall during the day. ā€

"There's something wrong with that? We didn't do anything that day. ā€

"Whether there is a problem or not depends on our next conversation. When we first met, we said that you might have done something that you didn't even know you had, and that's why you had that weird thing. ā€

"Isn't that why I watched horror movies?"

"Please don't stress Miss Zheng. According to our investigation, the most obvious abnormal behavior in the past six months is to participate in the tourism festival. ā€

"What can be wrong with the tourism festival event? That's the government, right? The foreigners who come here are also organized by their government! Are they still ......?"

"Little sister, I haven't seen you for a while, have you forgotten what I said again?"

"I ...... I think the psychiatrist is right, it's just that I pulled Xiaorui to watch horror movies, and she would be like that. ā€

Since the two of them participated in the tourism festival, they should also know that the exhibition activities during the tourism festival not only show the scenery of various countries, but also introduce and experience folk activities. Among them, the religious culture of each country is also included. We currently suspect that the two of them did something during that time and were targeted by evil spirits from a foreign land. ā€

"We all did the same thing that day, it doesn't make sense that Xiaorui encountered that kind of thing, I'm okay, right?"

"I came here today to dispel this suspicion. Please tell us more about that time. ā€

"I ...... Poetry ......"

"Then I'll tell you."

"Please."

"We go to the exhibition hall on weekend mornings. I remember that day we went to the exhibition halls of countries A, B and I. You want to say something religious...... We watched the Duomo of Milan in country I, which is the kind of movie with a 360-degree curtain, and then the staff gave everyone souvenirs, which were the cathedral refrigerator magnets and postcards, and everyone took them, and they were all the same. Other than that, there was nothing else, most of the time in line, the two of us didn't talk to anyone, we were watching videos together on our phones. I watched the float at night, and I saw some religious things on it, but there were too many people at that time. ā€

"What about the next day?"

"What?"

"We found the consumption records of the two of you, you two went to the exhibition on the first day of the weekend, and you also went to the second day, right?"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

"What's wrong? Any questions? ā€

"The next day...... The next day we ......"

"I can't remember. Do you really have a record of spending? ā€

"Yes. The consumption records show that the two of you ordered tickets for the night temple fair of the J National Pavilion the next day. ā€

"Ahh

"I—I don't remember. Have you found your spending history? Are you sure it's ours? How did you find out? ā€

Learn about Suosuo......

"This is an online booking record, the registered name and mobile phone number are two people, and the advance tickets have been picked up after that."

"How is this possible...... I...... I don't remember ...... at all."

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

"Miss Zheng likes the culture of country J very much, right? Your backpack, keys, bedroom furnishings have a lot of J star stuff. Your favorite celebrity is a special guest at the temple fair that day, and judging by your financial resources and time, you are likely to attend the temple fair that day. ā€

"I ...... But I ...... I don't remember anything about ......."

"It seems that what happened to you has something to do with this day's temple fair."

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ So, what to do? ā€

"We've got to figure out what you did that day."

"Little sister, your face is not very good-looking, do you remember anything?"

"Ah......h

"It's better not to hide it, or we'll be misled or delayed, which won't be a good thing for your good friend."

"Poetry...... Shishi, do you remember what happened that day? ā€

"I see this...... I just remembered some ......."

"Say whatever comes to mind."

"That night, we went to the temple fair. There, just like this poster, it's a long road, with a lot of lanterns, and it's beautiful, and the end is the shrine. I remember...... I remember we took pictures at the torii gate, bought candy apples, and caught goldfish...... I also went to the shrine and bought an ema.,It's a pair.,The kind of ...... that blesses friendship for a long time."

"Yes, is there a problem with that?"

"That's all you remember?"

"Hmm...... That's right, kimono! We changed into kimonos! There are shops that rent kimonos and sell kimonos at the entrance of the temple fair, and the two of us ...... I forgot if I rented it or bought it, but I changed my clothes and wore clogs anyway. Xiaorui was not used to it, and almost fell, so I held hands with her and smiled...... What did you say with a smile...... Afterwards...... At the end, there is a performance, which is a geisha-like dance in country J...... Xiaorui's favorite star has a performance, and many fans are there to call ......"

"Don't have any souvenirs in your home?"

"Nope. If you don't say it, I don't remember it. ā€

"I didn't ...... either It's been so long since the temple fair ended, and everything at the shrine has been demolished, isn't it...... Am I hopeless? ā€

"Because it is an event organized by the governments of the two countries, private companies participating in the temple fair will also register, so it is not difficult to find those people from country J. Please rest assured, Miss Zheng, if necessary, we will go to country J to deal with this matter. ā€

"However, as far as we can find out now, there is no problem with the qualifications of the shrine and the stall owner, especially the shrine, which is a copy of a famous shrine in country J, and invited two priests and shrine maidens from there. So we think that the problem may be something they bought or done, or even that they have no connection with the fair, but that they encountered something on the way to or from the fair. ā€

"So, what then?"

"Let's ask the two of you to go back and find out if there is anything extra or missing in the house."

"Well, okay. Xiao Rui ......"

"Miss Zheng, you don't have to be afraid, the talisman has always worked, right?"

"...... right"

"Well, it will continue to protect you. In the meantime, we'll get to the root of the problem and you'll be fine. ā€

"Yes, Xiaorui, you'll be fine!"

"Hmm. I...... If only I hadn't gone to the fair......"

"Little Rui ......"

"Miss Zheng, even if you don't go to the temple fair, you may not be safe."
