Following the doorman, the three of them arrived at the rabbit den, the weather was hot, and there were no rabbit carcasses on the ground.

"More than twenty rabbits are said to have died?" Yuka Mamiya asked.

The doorman nodded: "Yes, these rabbits were all fed by students, but they died overnight last night." ”

Yuka Mamiya lowered her head and began to check, Kiryu was a first-class person who couldn't help, he was neither a pure detective nor a zoologist, so investigation was not his forte.

The only thing that is certain is that there should be no strange talk on the scene.

Yuka Mamiya stood up and shook her head slightly at Kiryu before saying, "Can you take us to the classroom with the "Portrait of Coming to Life"?" ”

"What?" The doorman was stunned, why did these two people who claimed to be animal-related research majors let them take them to that classroom?

"We heard that there was a strange news at Tong Shou Elementary School," Yuka Mamiya cleared her throat and introduced herself, "I'm a folk student at Suweino University. ”

"Didn't you just say you were ......," the doorman opened his mouth.

"Kiryu-sensei is indeed a researcher, and I'm here for something else," said Yuka Mamiya, "We just happened to be here together." ”

If you say this, will the other party believe it?

Kiryu looked at Yuka Mamiya with suspicion, and he was even ready to be expelled.

But I didn't expect it......

The doorman nodded: "Well, I see!" ”

Just when Kiryu felt incredible, the doorman said: "My little nephew is also a student of Tong Shou Elementary School, and he said before that he saw a moving portrait and was so frightened that he went to the hospital for examination and said that he was traumatized and needed to be hospitalized. ”

"Recently, there have been several cases of the same type of dropout and suspension at school, and to be honest, I feel very wrong."

"By the way, do you have a person named Narusuke Tsushino in your school?"

"Mr. Tsukino? Yes" The doorman nodded, and then asked, "What, Kiryu-sensei, are you and Sashino-sensei acquaintances?" ”

"I've only heard of his name as a psionic teacher."

"Psionic teacher?" The doorman scratched his head: "Why haven't I heard of it?" Does Tsushino-sensei have that ability? ”

"Doesn't he wear a glove on his left hand every day?"

"No," the doorman shook his head.

"......" Kiryu was puzzled: "Could it be that Narusuke Sakuno of this world is not a teacher of hell?" ”

The thought of having come into contact with countless worlds through O'Chimche found an answer in his heart.

"It's like in a certain world, Kiryu first-class turned out to be a really bad boy, and it doesn't seem like Narusuke Sakuno is an ordinary person here."

The three of them came to the door of a classroom, and the doorman took out the key to unlock it.

"It's the portrait of the Mona Lisa."

The doorman pointed to a portrait covered with a white cloth.

Kiryu walked straight over.

Folklore Scholar] has been activated.

In other words, this portrait is really weird.

"Can I trouble you to get out first?" Seeing this, Yuka Mamiya said to the doorman beside her, "We can't be sure that something strange is happening, so it's best for ordinary people to leave here." ”

"Oh oh oh good!" The doorman nodded: "Come on!" ”

He left quickly and closed the door with his hand.

Kiryu turned his head helplessly to look at Yuka Mamiya: "Shouldn't you leave?" ”

"Hee-hee! How could I go at such an important moment! Yuka Mamiya took out her mobile phone: "I want to record Kiryu-sensei's sassy and heroic posture of subduing demons and eliminating demons." ”

"Then I should really thank you."

Kiryu teared off the white cloth with a hard look, and he didn't feel a terrible aura on the portrait.

"It's ...... Portrait of the Mona Lisa? ”

He looked at the portrait with a strange expression.

In the portrait, a woman has her back to him.

This is the back portrait of the Mona Lisa.

Mona Lisa, with her back to the picture, suddenly turned her head.

"The portrait moves!" Yuka Mamiya exclaimed, but the hands holding the phone were very stable, without a little trembling.

"Hmm"

Kiryu tugged at the white cloth and quickly retreated.

Then I saw the Mona Lisa stretch out her hand, grab the drawing board, and crawl out.

"That's it?"

Kiryu looked at the Mona Lisa, who was rubbing on his lap like a puppy, and suddenly felt that something was wrong with her whole person.

"I think I've seen a similar conjecture on a project between Mr. Kirizaki and Professor Oyama of Nanto University."

"What conjecture?"

"Fantasy Demon" Yuuka Mamiya walked up to the "Mona Lisa" and tried to reach out to touch her, but Kiryu's first-class eyes quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her away.

Katsa!

The strange talk of a woman's jaw suddenly cracked, and a large mouth full of teeth opened.

The face was like a mask, like the pattern on the surface of a butterfly's wings on a human face, not a real face, and its true face was hidden under the mask.

Fortunately, Kiryu reacted quickly, so this bite was empty.

"Don't come closer! It should have a special sense of spiritual power, maybe it feeds on it" Kiryu stretched out his finger and released a little blue.

Glowing like fireflies flying out of his fingertips.

The "Mona Lisa" suddenly sprang up, swallowed the light in one gulp, and then circled around Kiryu affectionately.

"Just like a dog," Kiryu sighed.

He turned his head to the pale-faced Mamiya Yuka and asked, "What is the fantasy demon you just said?" ”

Yuka Mamiya, who recovered slightly, said: "Professor Oyama once thought that the modern Internet was an important way for the spread of strange stories, but there are many strange stories that obviously do not exist, such as Hanako, the Thirteenth Steps, the Rift Girl, etc., because they are not specific legends of a certain region, but legends of the whole country, without any basis and reason, and most of the so-called legends are also made up by the students themselves, and there is no relevant information at all."

"But there are still people who claim to have seen them."

The teachers believe that the spread of such strange rumors, as well as the power of "belief" and fear, will make conjectures come true, and they call them "fantasy demons", which will slowly become stronger as people discuss them. ”

"What about the means of extermination?"

"To make people forget, or not believe in its existence."

Yuka Mamiya looked at the Mona Lisa on the ground with some fear: "It must be the students of Tong Shou Elementary School, who spread false rumors, which led to the slow increase in strange talks." ”

"At the moment, it's not strong, it's very slow, and it's pure wishful thinking to catch the rabbit," Kiryu said, "But if you continue to discuss it, it might really become an invincible monster." ”

"But if it's a lie, then why do animals die en masse?"

The two left the classroom, and the doorman was still guarding the door.

"How's it going?"

"Resolved"

Leaving Tong Shou Elementary School, Mamiya Yuka curiously circled around Kiryu.

"Where did you hide that painting?"

Kiryu raised his hand, and a portrait of the Mona Lisa appeared.

"Well, here it is."

When you let go again, the portrait disappears.

"I'm a magician."

Mamiya Yuka wrinkled her nose: "It's strange to believe you, I guess it's magic, or spell or something." ”
