Chapter 60: The Devil's Chair
There was a knock on the door.
"Please come in," Yuka Mamiya said first.
It was a high school girl who walked through the door.
"What do you call it?"
Yuka Mamiya consciously assumed the identity of the questioner, this is an opportunity to approach strange talk in an open and honest manner, and she will definitely not let it go easily.
But the eyes of the female high school student were on Kiryu: "My surname is Ito, Ito Kiyomi, are you here to investigate the school's strange talk?" ”
"Hmm" Mamiya nodded: "What did you encounter ......?" ”
"My friend and I were playing a game of fox dogs," Ito said, "but she suddenly went crazy, as if she had really been taken by a fox, and she also claimed to be the messenger of the god Inari, Lord White Fox, and the scene was terrifying." ”
After asking a few words in detail, Kiryu and Yuka Mamiya only got a simple reply like "It's scary, it's scary".
"Thanks, please let the next person in."
Kiyomi Ito leaves.
Kiryu noticed the voice recorder in Mamiya's hand.
"It's also important to investigate the recording and collect evidence, Mr. Kirizaki~" Mamiya seemed to see the meaning in Kiryu's expression.
Knock knock~
There was another knock on the door.
The girl who pushed the door in again bowed very politely: "I'm disturbed~"
"You may be seated"
is still the same as the words just now, she has not been harmed, and her body is also very healthy, but when she talks about "strange talk", the whole person will subconsciously tremble.
"I feel like I'm haunted by evil spirits."
"When did you find yourself haunted by evil spirits? And why are you sure that it is an evil spirit that haunts you? Mamiya asked.
The girl shook her head slightly and said, "Some time ago, when I was in the toilet, I borrowed the mirror and saw a shadow behind me...... Always, suddenly"
"No matter where you are, when you get a shadow, you will suddenly appear behind you."
The girl leaves after telling her story, and Kiryu and Mamiya are silent in the small conference room.
"Shouldn't that be a fox fairy?" asked Mamiya.
Kiryu nodded: "Yes." ”
The third girl who came in was on crutches and had bandages around her arms, and she was the girl who was dragged by the tram as mentioned by Mamiya before.
The fourth, from the athletics department, is said to be noisy and haunting.
The so-called poltergeist is when things in the room are moving around without people, as if there is an invisible ghost wreaking havoc.
The number of students in the school who have encountered strange stories is unimaginable, and some teachers have been involved in car accidents for the first time, and I heard from Yoshino-sensei, who is said to have been seriously injured and is still hospitalized because the teacher was driving home when he suddenly had a terrible palm on the windshield.
It wasn't until more than two o'clock in the afternoon that Kiryu and Mamiya Yuka finished asking about the basic situation.
"Whew~"
"It's really a hard job" picked up the disposable paper cup and took a sip of water, then he turned his head to look at Yuka Mamiya: "Did you find anything?" ”
From the very beginning, Yuka Mamiya has been working hard to collect and organize key information.
Of course, Kiryu was also trying to listen carefully, and he was almost certain now that Asanoyu High School was definitely not because of the "Kitsune", the Kitsune had his own demands, it was simply a harmful curse, or blood, or worship and worship, but it couldn't be like a "prank".
The entire Asabyu High School is like a girls' academy where all the weird stories come together, and in horror games, it's too close to the monsters to make any sense.
Knock knock~
There was another knock on the door.
It's a girl who has been here before.,Kiyomi Ito.。
"Excuse me, how is the investigation?"
Kiyomi Ito looked at Kiryu: "It's a university professor, so it's definitely okay, Kirisaki-sensei?" ”
"Well, of course," Kiryu nodded.
"Actually, I also called a person today, that person is a classmate of my good friend, and it is said that he is a psychicic detective high school student who helped the police solve strange stories." Kiyomi Ito said, "That person should have come to investigate this matter, but I don't know why, but it didn't show up." ”
"Ahem!" Kiryu, who kept drinking water, choked on the water and coughed.
"Kirisaki-sensei, are you alright?" Yuka Mamiya got up and walked to Kiryu's side, raising her hand to gently pat him on the back.
You didn't do it yet!
Don't you like the current role-playing? Kiryu junior.
Make eye contact, but both of them can understand each other's meaning.
Kiyomi Ito didn't notice Kiryu and Mamiya's eye contact, and said: "But with Kirizaki-sensei appearing, the strange things at the school should be over, the magic chair, superpowers, and if UFOs appear again, I'm afraid that Asa Yu will really become a strange talk academy." ”
"Wait, what Magic Chair?" Kiryu sat up straight and asked, "What's the deal with superpowers?" ”
"The Magic Chair is a seat in Class A of Year 3," Kiyomi Ito said, "Since the Kasai panic began, all four students sitting in that position have been cursed terriblely, and one of them was hospitalized with a perforated stomach due to a ghost touching his stomach by a ghost's hand during class. ”
But what Yuka Mamiya paid attention to was another term.
She asked, "Kasai panic?" ”
"Don't you know?" Kiyomi Ito was a little surprised: "I thought you would investigate first." ”
"Please tell me more about it."
"We have a classmate, Chiaki Kasai," said Kiyomi Ito, "and it has become very popular lately to bend spoons with superpowers. ”
Kiryu nodded on the side, some time ago, it was true that the topic of "superpowers" began to be popular in the school for some reason, and even the guys from Kotaro Teshima were addicted to it.
"Kasai said that she also had that ability, and that many people were surrounding Kasai because of the topic of superpowers that bent spoons." Kiyomi Ito recalled.
"Our school is very strict, and the teachers are very stubborn," said Kiyomi Ito, "and criticized Kasai at the school-wide morning meeting, saying that she was a liar."
"Huh? …… It's too much! "The palace has already substituted itself into it.
"Uh-huh!" Ito nodded: "Later, Kasai's friend Sawaguchi angrily stood up to defend Kasai, but the teacher asked Kasai to show his superpowers at the morning meeting. ”
Mamiya asked, "And then?" ”
"It worked," Ito said, "but it was the teacher's keychain that was distorted...... The first person to question it was Yoshino-sensei. ”
Life teacher Yoshino?
Kiryu and Mamiya automatically thought of the middle-aged teacher who was in poor spirits and said that he was knocked on the window by a ghost hand at night.
The other party turned out to be a person who would question a student in front of the whole school at the morning meeting.
"Since it's successful......"
"It's still considered a trick," Ito said, "and the teachers stood in a team and verbally criticized Kasai and Sawaguchi, saying that there were no superpowers in the world, that they were liars, and that they were tricks and so on, in short, it was very noisy." ”
If it's a normal world, that's not wrong in itself.
However, such exclusion of weak girls can be regarded as school violence.
Teachers oppress students.
After all, it's just a small pleasure like bending a spoon, and if you don't do it, it will cool down in about a week or two, and everyone will lose interest.
Ito continued, "Then Sawaguchi stopped coming to school. Kasai-san gets angry and says 'curse you to die' to Yoshino-sensei. ”
Ito sighed: "Since that day, all kinds of strange things have started to happen at the school, and then gradually there are messages that it is the curse of Kasai-san, also known as Kasai panic. ”
Manomiya looked at Kiryu, who shook his head.
It's just the superpower of bending the spoon and trying to curse the whole school? If this student's name is "Double One", maybe there is still a possibility.
There is no need to investigate, and the so-called Kasai panic is simply a rumor.
"Can you take me to see the Magic Chair you mentioned?" Kiryu asked.
"Well, of course!" Kiyomi Ito nodded.
The three of them and one cat walked to Class A for three years, and there was no one in the class, probably somewhere else.
"That's the location," Ito said, pointing to the "protagonist seat" by the window, "and there have been many curses. ”
Kiryu took Taro from Mamiya's arms and placed him on the desk.
Investigating ghosts, there must be no one more suitable than Taro, this guy is accompanied by more than a hundred ghost brothers.
"Meow~" Taro's reaction was flat, not like he sensed any danger, but licked the soles of his feet on the table very calmly.
"No ghosts?"
