As soon as he stepped onto the fifth floor, Tsukasa Kurihara almost instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and in his field of vision, a black gas wafted out from the half-hidden door.

The hairball followed by a tense muscle, showing a vigilant appearance.

"President, there's a guy." Hairball said.

Tsukasa Kurihara nodded, squeezing his hand to keep the furball quiet.

It's not the first time he's faced with this situation, and Tsukasa Kurihara is calmer than he imagined, and can even be said to be excited. Both the body and the brain are in the same situation.

And such a fit puts Tsukasa Kurihara in an indescribable state.

The gray pure power that remained in his body spread within him, and a shadow appeared on his fingertips as soon as his mind moved.

Tsukasa Kurihara withdrew his power and realized that Ash Innocence had merged with him.

Ryogo pushed the door open and walked in, Tsukasa Kurihara behind him, and the two walked through the living room straight to the bedroom.

Narumi Suzuki lay quietly on the bed, covered with a quilt, as if she was taking a nap. Ryogo walked over to the bed and patted Narumi Suzuki, who didn't feel anything, and then he yelled again, and Narumi was still like that.

Ryogo returned to Tsukasa Kurihara, grabbed his cuffs and said intermittently, "Mom, Mom." ”

Tsukasa Kurihara touched his head and stepped forward to Narumi Suzuki.

From the outside, Suzuki Narumi was no different, but in the next second, I saw her eyelids trembling violently, her face had terrible spasms, and her muscles were beating in a completely unpredictable direction, and everything returned to calm after she opened her mouth and let out a scream.

The people who came behind only heard Suzuki Narumi's screams, and did not see the change in her expression, but the scream was enough to make their hearts tense and hesitate unconsciously when they thought of terrible things.

The cameraman and Haruko Narita were the quickest to arrive, and when they came to Tsukasa Kurihara, Haruko Narita cautiously asked, "Kurihara-san, is something happening?" ”

Tsukasa Kurihara looked at the lenses of his glasses, and then said to Haruko Narita, "I'm not sure yet." ”

"Not sure?"

"Hmm."

Tsukasa Kurihara didn't say anything more, but paced around the room, observing everything in the room left and right.

Beyoshi walked to the bedside after Tsukasa Kurihara to look at Narumi Suzuki, and was relieved to see her heaving chest, and the person was still alive.

Beyoshi took a step closer, but the appearance alone did not tell what happened to Narumi Suzuki. She looked like she was asleep, but it was wrong to wake up without waking up from such a big movement in the outside world.

In addition to Shibeyoshi, Nobu Oshima and Minami Kato are also observing. Both of them have their own emphasis. Nobu Oshima paid attention to the physiognomy on his face, and he saw that Suzuki's face was flushed but her eyes were black and blue, which was exactly the same as the situation described by the nightmare.

Minami Kato didn't observe Narumi Suzuki on the bed much, and she, like Tsukasa Kurihara, began to look around.

The room was very tidy, there was no trace of anyone else except for a group of people who had just arrived, and there was no sign of the man in the house.

Single parent families? Minami Kato guessed.

The cleanliness of the environment shows that the hostess has not been asleep for long, and on the other hand, it shows that Ryogo is not as stubborn as the public thinks.

There is no sign of outsiders in the room, everything happens inside. This is the conclusion reached by Minami Kato. She subconsciously pondered what proportion of this was human, and wondered if the drug would have the same effect, or some other way.

Years of life experience have made it impossible for her to easily abandon her common sense and accept the situation that "there are strange things in this world".

I felt it, but I didn't see it with my own eyes.

She looked at the back of Tsukasa Kurihara standing in front of the window, curious about what he was thinking now, and wondering if her doubts could be resolved during the trip. Is this person pretending to be a god or is he really capable?

Tsukasa Kurihara, who was curious by Minami Kato, was looking at the park at the moment.

Standing in front of the window, he realized that the view of Suzuki's house was very good, it was located on the upper floor, and even from the bedroom, he could faintly see the park.

Tsukasa Kurihara looked left and right, compared with the current position, turned around and left the bedroom to go to the living room.

One side of the living room is a large floor-to-ceiling window facing the sun, but at this moment the curtains are completely closed, and the living room without lights is slightly dim.

Tsukasa Kurihara walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and pulled the curtains open, and the light that was not very bright in April shone into the living room, and everything looked dull before the sun came out.

The floor-to-ceiling windows look like the center of the theater, and the sand of the park can be seen at a glance, surrounded by high and low trees, and the nameless shrine is walked along the sheep's intestine path. Because the shrine is hidden by trees, Tsukasa Kurihara cannot see the shrine, and only the torii gate, which represents the shrine, towers among the trees.

Probably because of Ash Chun, Tsukasa Kurihara has a sense of familiarity with the shrine, and it is clear that the problem is not in the shrine.

According to the level of Gray Pure, there will be no other strange talk if there is one of him nearby, unless the level is higher than his. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and this aspect is the same whether it is strange or human.

And where did this thing come from?

Tsukasa Kurihara narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly, he noticed something, and saw something different in the gap between the fences.

From the sand to the exterior wall of the apartment, a series of footprints appeared in his field of vision.

It is not correct to say that it is a footprint, because it looks like a handprint, with a long toe (or finger) part and a wide palm. This reminded Tsukasa Kurihara of an ape.

Tsukasa Kurihara leaned forward and saw the footprints go all the way up, flat on the wall, disappearing overhead.

There is also a floor above the head, which is the sixth floor of the apartment.

There was nothing to be seen in the bedroom, and the group came out and went back to the living room, always staying in someone else's bedroom.

After coming out, Beyoshi asked Watanabe, "How long has Mrs. Suzuki's situation been like this?" ”

Watanabe shook his head and said he didn't know: "If it weren't for Ryogo, I don't know if she would be in this situation." ”

Beiji frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Then put this matter aside for now." Watanabe-san, what happened after we came last time, could you please tell us about it? ”

"Of course." Watanabe said, "The situation settled down in the days after you left, and nothing strange happened. But when we all thought it was over, it started to be different. Just like Ryogo showed before, several young people had red eyes, and when they saw people, they hit and bited, and they called an ambulance to go to the hospital for treatment and examination, but they didn't find any problems. ”

It took several days before he came to his senses, forgetting all the strange things that had happened to him, and only remembering that he had a dream. Everyone's dream plot is different, but there is the same old woman. ”

"According to them, the old woman was short and terrifying, like the same person, and played the same role in the dream - the devil's spokesman."

"Devil's Advocate?" Next to him, Kimura couldn't help but ask.

"Yes." Watanabe said, "In her dreams, she did many horrible things, making the person concerned unable to distinguish between the real and the false, and wandering on the boundary between dreams and reality." ”

"It feels a bit like Inception." Haruko Narita said.

"I have to say, it's probably "Inception" and "The Grudge." Watanabe back.

At this time, Tsukasa Kurihara withdrew his gaze and asked Watanabe, "Did an unexpected incident happen upstairs?" ”
