Chapter 179: Melody of Death
Back at the old man's house, Raizan sat down on the ground, took the medical kit that Anne had brought according to the old man's instructions, and bandaged the old man's hand.
It was rare that the old man Ikeda did not put on a posture of being unapproachable, but unconsciously picked up a cigarette from the table on the side. Take one out of your mouth and set it on fire. A hand reached out next to him, took off the cigarette from his mouth, and put it back in the cigarette case.
Anne put down the boiling water in her hand and said jokingly: "An old man should not smoke so much, it is not good for his health." As he spoke, he poured two more glasses of water and placed them in front of Lei Chan and the old man.
Wrapping the gauze tightly and pasting a piece of medical tape, Lei Chan confirmed that the bandaging was done, and then looked at the old man Ikeda seriously.
I have to say that if you want to make someone feel uncomfortable, you just have to stare at him.
Lei Chan's actions directly caused the room to fall into silence, and even an indifferent old man like Isamu Ikeda, a lonely old man, could not stand being stared at by two young people. In the end, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you watching me do?" â
"Old man, I think you should tell us what happened here, it's the truth! Don't prevaricate us with official words to fool ordinary people, you know, I'm also an exorcist. Lei Chan didn't go around in circles, but simply and clearly cut to the point.
Old man Ikeda glanced at Rai Chan and then at Anne. Of course, he knew the identity of Lei Chan's exorcist, and even more so the identity of Annie's vampire, if it weren't for his friendship with Hong Yi in his early years. To be honest, Isamu Ikeda himself really doesn't want to get involved in the Exorcist and Brotherhood affair anymore.
Eventually, Yukazu Ikeda dropped half a glass of boiling water, and then slowly told the story.
...
The time was still more than a month ago, that is, at the same time as the outbreak of the terrorist video in country M and the incident of the tomb of the Shu King of the Celestial Dynasty, a strange supernatural incident also occurred in Area 11.
The cause of the incident is very simple, a certain idle egg-sore social dregs snatched a four-eyed boy when he bullied him. But in the end, the mobile phone failed to sell, after all, in this era, the only object that the scum wants to sell is the scum. But who would need a pink phone?
So, this mobile phone full of girl's heart was thrown in a corner. Until the incident broke out at the same time, due to the time difference, it was late at night in Area 11, and the mobile phone suddenly rang. To be reasonable, the scum of society who goes out every day to fool around stays at home and sleeps at this time.
Enraged, he found the phone, and wanted to break it, but once again he was connected by magic. When the phone was connected, no one's voice was heard, but a strange melody. The melody is hard to describe, and according to all those who have heard it, they have only one word to describe it, and that is fascinated. Once the melody begins, all who are listening to it will not be able to stop until the melody is over. But when the melody is over, a woman's voice whispers in your ear: "You will die!" â
The only best time to be able to avoid listening to this melody is in the first few seconds of the melody. But people didn't know it at first, especially the scum. Although the female voice ringing softly in his ears startled the dregs, where would the uneducated hooligans care about these things, and soon regarded this incident as an episode in his dream, and soon forgot about it.
Of course, the scum quickly sensed that something was wrong, and for the next three days, he always felt like he was being watched. At first, he thought he was seeking revenge from the enemy, but he really overestimated his energy. After several supernatural events in quick succession, he was pretty sure that it wasn't ordinary people who were spying on him. Then the scum remembered what had happened during the night three days before, and when he told his accomplices about it, he was unsurprisingly ridiculed.
And then on the fifth day it was gone, and no one knows what happened during the two days he disappeared. But when he reappeared, it was already a dead body, naked and frozen to death in Tokyo Bay, and the only thing was the girl's heart phone stuffed in his mouth.
The dregs's bizarre way of death did not get the attention of the police, but it attracted the attention of the brotherhood. Of course, since the power of the Onmyoji family in District 11 is much greater than that of the Brotherhood, and many members of the Brotherhood are members of the Onmyoji family, this case was transferred to the Onmyoji family.
At first, thinking about the small case, at most two people were sent to deal with it, and in fact, the Onmyoji family also arranged it like this. But with the two onmyoji who were sent out, they also died in a strange way, and things were not so simple. First four, then sixteen, no matter how many Onmyoji were dispatched, without exception, all died in different and strange ways.
And before these onmyoji died, they more or less mentioned one thing. That's when they once got a phone call with a melody and a woman's voice on the phone. With so many Onmyoji dead, it was natural to attract the attention of the Onmyoji family and the Brotherhood, and they sent more people to pay attention to this matter.
But a terrifying urban monster was passed on faster, and the content was exactly this terrifying melody. Only some people from the relevant departments of the government, the Onmyoji family, some wandering exorcists in District 11, and the Brotherhood branch know about this matter. But this matter is circulating among ordinary people, which means that this melody has begun to spread completely, which means that if the Brotherhood and the Onmyoji family can't handle this matter well, there will soon be large-scale casualties.
What exactly happened in between, no one knows. But the ending is obvious, they fail, and the final succession leads to the complete spread of this terrifying melody. According to the last measurable data seven days ago, more than a thousand people have died in this horrific melody.
And the way the melody of death spreads is very simple, from the initial telephone diffusion, to the end as long as there are electronic instruments, it will appear. From the stereo to the TV, all of them were hit. Such a simple and crude method of transmission immediately frightened many people in the big cities. A large number of people have abandoned the convenience of modern society and fled to the countryside with their families, but more people are waiting to die in big cities, robbing, killing, and **, happening in all corners of the city, and panic is spreading.
To be reasonable, the horror melody doesn't cause many kills, but it is precisely because of the fear in the hearts of human beings that the urban order is almost paralyzed. But people don't think so, they only care about whether their lives are guaranteed.
...
After listening to the description of the old man Ikeda, Lei Chan frowned deeply, and said softly, "This... It's kind of like..."
"Mimiko (įžããå)," Anne couldn't help but say.
