As Tsukasa Kurihara said, there were only a few of them left alive in the entire apartment.

Watanabe called Takaoka and Muraki, and the three of them knocked on the door from the first floor, and when they reached the sixth floor, none of them responded.

When they returned, Takaoka and Muraki's faces were pale, and they didn't say anything about going out with Tsukasa Kurihara, and they were even a few steps away from the window.

Watanabe said with trepidation, "There really isn't anyone····· This is an umbrella, there is no rain gear for pets, but there are raincoats worn by children, which are useless in the storage room. ”

Watanabe handed the transparent umbrella and raincoat to Tsukasa Kurihara. The raincoat was not suitable for the hairball, it was large and slippery, and Tsukasa Kurihara changed it to fit the hairball and put it on it.

The people around watched Tsukasa Kurihara's actions in silence and didn't say a word, especially Takaoka and Muraki, who completely lost their previous disdainful attitude.

When he walked to the door, Tsukasa Kurihara turned to Takaoka and Muraki and asked, "Do you want to go together?" ”

Muraki hurriedly replied, "No." I'm staying here and protecting everyone with An Yunjun. ”

Gao Gang coughed twice and said, "You just go." ”

The photographer and host Haruko Chengri, who has always been eager to follow the shot, is speechless like a dumb at the moment.

Tsukasa Kurihara chuckled, said no more, and went out with Furball and Akane.

It seems that anomalies always happen at night, and even during the day, they can be implicated in the darkness for various reasons.

The rain was much lighter, the air was damp and cold, and the only sound of rain was the sound of rain on moonless nights. The two of them and a dog stepped on the stone slab of the park, and as they got closer and closer to the center of the park, Akane's enthusiasm cooled.

She retreated a little, but looked at Tsukasa Kurihara's back and regained her courage. There can be no more shame.

The furball walks on four legs, but it is more agile and gentle than Akane, and its huge body has a bit of the agility and agility of a fierce beast. He doesn't look like a dog anymore and more like a wolf, with a longer mouth and thinner eyes. Furballs are still in the process of evolving.

Because of its strengthening, the hairball no longer shivered as before, it was close to Tsukasa Kurihara's feet, her eyes were firmly fixed on the front, and Akane was two steps behind and at Tsukasa Kurihara's side.

Tsukasa Kurihara held an umbrella, without Akane's uneasiness or furball's nervousness, and walked leisurely as if he was strolling in the rain.

On the sixth floor of the apartment, the figures of two people and a dog could be seen through the living room window, and the transparent umbrellas were very conspicuous, and they watched in silence as Tsukasa Kurihara, Akane, and Furball were swallowed up by the trees until they disappeared.

The camera faithfully captures the scene.

The silence lasted until Beyoshi spoke.

"Kurihara-san, they're gone, but we must not take it lightly. Weird things can happen at any time. Narihi-san, Watanabe-san, you must be careful, don't run around, just follow us. Beiyoshi solemnly instructed the non-shrine personnel present, and then looked at the investigation team he had formed.

Muraki, who was arrogant at the beginning, didn't say a word at the moment, and even avoided Beiji's eyes intentionally or unintentionally.

Gao Gang completed a 180-degree turn with the previous high attitude, but there was no sense of disobedience, and he naturally asked Beiji: "What should we do?" ”

If Akane Zai definitely can't give these two people a good face, but those present are all calm, and no one blames the two, Bei Ji said: "This is the water purification and the imperial guard of our shrine." Pure water has the effect of dispelling incredible existence, but it is difficult to obtain, and now the shrine does not have much stock, so it is kept by me and Gao Gang-san respectively. ”

Beiyoshi took out the Japanese priest of Hieda Shrine and distributed it to the cameraman, Haruko Narita and Watanabe, and the purified water was only two small bottles, in a twenty-milliliter glass bottle, and he handed one to Takaoka.

Gao Gang has heard of the effect of water purification, but he is from a medium-sized shrine and has not seen it with his own eyes, so it is only an unscientific rumor. But now that he had seen the anomaly, he was quickly convinced of it, and immediately took the bottle and put it in his pocket, as if he was afraid that someone else would rob it.

Muraki brought a wooden sword and enshrined it at the shrine for several years, and it is said to have the power of slaying demons and eliminating demons. But I haven't tried the specific effect yet, in short, listening to his tone, as long as this wooden sword is there, everything will be fine.

Kato Minami was carrying a two-finger-thick knot rope, which was part of the rattle rope at the entrance of the Garden Shrine, and she didn't know what it did, but it was the palace priest who asked her to bring it.

Gao Gang didn't bring anything, he said that the Eagle Shrine cultivates the original heart, and does not need the assistance of external objects.

When it comes to cultivating his own heart, Bei Ji has a bit of a humble opinion, but looking at Gao Gang's appearance, it doesn't seem like he can calm down.

Nobu Oshima is still traveling lightly.

After learning about the various items of the team, Beiji nodded: "Watanabe-san, please continue to explain the situation of the apartment." ”

Although the surrounding environment is a little weird, the investigation should not be stopped, and the purpose of this visit is mentioned again.

There were so many people in the room, Watanabe was bold and no longer afraid, and cleared his throat to tell the story of the park: "I grew up here, and I heard about the strange things about the park shrine when I was my age like Ryogo. My parents said that there was a big yokai killed by samurai under the shrine, and it looked terrifying and fed on people, so we should stay away from the shrine. But we didn't have much entertainment at that time, so we had a popular test of courage, and I don't know who was the first to propose it, and the shrine became a place for us to test our courage. One night·······"

Before explaining the current situation, Watanabe first talked about his strange experience as a child. There are 12 people who go to the shrine to try their courage, and they enter the shrine in twos and twos, and walk around and touch the prayer box.

Watanabe was the last group to enter, and there were no lights inside the shrine, and the rules did not allow flashlights, so they could only rely on the faint moonlight to recognize the way.

In fact, Watanabe didn't encounter anything, but he was terrified by everything that surrounded him, so he walked around the shrine and returned to the starting point. His companion was a bold man, and he touched the prayer box even if he said anything.

"If he did, then he would be the only one of us who went inside the shrine. We were the last group, and when I came out, most of the others were gone, and I was scared at the time, so I went with them. Watanabe said in a dull voice, "I asked the others, and they all walked around the shrine like I did, and they didn't enter." ”

"What about that person?" Minami Kato asked.

"Missing." Watanabe replied, "The next day his parents found out that he was missing, and they couldn't find him everywhere, so our courage test was exposed, and we went to the shrine to look for him." But no matter how you look for it, you can't find it, and you call the police, who have found twelve different pairs of footprints around the shrine. One of them went inside the shrine. ”

"The police entered the shrine?" Haruko asked at the right time.

Watanabe nodded, "But the footprints stopped abruptly in front of the prayer box, and there was no trace of it, as if a person had disappeared out of thin air." Because there were no clues, the case was shelved and became an unsolved case. ”

No one talked.

"Because of this experience, I believe in Hieda Shrine, and when something unusual happened, my first thought was related to the shrine in the park, so I invited Yasuun-san. The surrounding residents did not disappear, but one by one they were so affected by nightmares that they had to move out. Watanabe said, "In a sense, it's also disappearing, isn't it?" ”

Watanabe's story is very much like a short story in a fantasy magazine, but it is told by a real person, and coupled with the current situation, it has an absurd truth.

After listening to Watanabe's words, Beiji frowned, and he and his father also entered the shrine, and they didn't see the existence of the prayer box, and there was not even a trace of the existence of the prayer box.

The situation is different from Watanabe's childhood.

Wait, since no one has ever been to the shrine, how can anyone know that there is a prayer box in the shrine? How can this be used as a prayer condition?

It's already surrounded.

Tsukasa Kurihara's calm words exploded in Beyoshi's ears, and he was like a fried cat, goosebumps rolled up all over his body.

Watanabe ······· Watanabe ·······

What is Watanabe's name?
