"Is there anything special about Earthbinders?" Inukai asked, a little confused.

Four leaves and Ueki had emphasized that chestnuts were the things of the earth-binding spirit.,It seems that the so-called "zero family" is extremely jealous of the earth-binding spirit.。 Now again, this can't help but arouse his curiosity.

"This kind of thing, let's wait until you enter the zero-subject training." Shiba glanced at Inukai, "Everything about the Earth Binding Spirit, ...... over there"

"Uh-huh, what are you guys talking about?" The Alpine Police Department suddenly walked over from behind, "If you don't have a job, I'll arrange a job for you." ”

"We're just talking about how to search this place in more detail." Ueki immediately found a suitable explanation, "After all, this is all secret rooms, labyrinths and the like. We don't tear it all down, we can't check anything at all, so we recommend turning on all the traps and lights. ”

"It's a good idea, the lights can be turned on, but the mechanism can't." The Takayama Police Department shrugged its shoulders, "Now that this place is completely sealed off by the Metropolitan Police Department, it is impossible to let the staff here in." What's more, there are friends of the suspect among these staff. ”

"But you should know that the man is innocent." Shiba stared at Gao Shan and said, "Even if he is suspicious, no one will help him in such a serious case!" ”

"I know it's useless, I want Shiratori to be vigilant." Takayama smiled, "Or rather, this matter is not negotiable until the matter is out of his control. ”

The corners of Inukai's mouth twitched, suggesting that it was already so obvious. If the case is not solved in three days, that staff member will be the perfect scapegoat.

He wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ueki and Yotsuba.

The Takayama Police Department quickly left with a few ordinary police officers, leaving only three people at the scene: Inukai, Ueki, and Four Leaves, and a Miss Chestnut who had become a groundbound spirit.

"Do you think it's the murderer's handprint?" Shiba asked, looking at the Ueki beside him.

"What do you think?" As Ueki spoke, he grabbed Inukai's hand and said, "How long has it been since the murder, do you think human blood can still maintain this level of viscosity?" ”

"So......" Inukai suddenly realized that he and those police officers were probably being tricked.

As he spoke, Ueki stuck a little bit of plasma, "It should be genuine, but with a little additive in it." ”

"Genuine?"

"Let the chestnuts come out of the dagger, we've checked, and there's no door around." Ueki said with a smile, "Yotsuba, don't you think the Takayama Police Department is a little too indulgent to us?" ”

"Pampering, what do you want to say?" Four leaves were stunned.

"Nothing." Seeing the stupid look of the four leaves, Ueki shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't say it.

At this moment, chestnuts came out of the dagger, and she couldn't help frowning as she looked at the blood on Inukai's hands.

[Mark Curse: The seed of the curse, which will sprout after certain conditions are met, curse method: unknown, curse effect: unknown.] ]

She looked in the direction of Ueki, and at this moment there was a black mist lingering on his fingers, which was obviously infected by the blood just now.

Obviously, this blood is the vector of the curse's contagion.

"Is there a way to remove the curse mark?" Chestnut looked at the four leaves and asked.

"Cursed markers? There is basically no solution, and there is a way to solve the curse, but the curse mark, that thing is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, unless it is completely cut with that part of the body tissue, it is impossible to get rid of it. Ueki smiled, "The curse can be dealt with, but there are very few people who have mastered this technique, and even a few officers on duty in the Zero Division dare not say it......"

Just halfway through his words, his expression froze, and he looked at his fingers, pointing to the blood stains on his fingers, and his face was a little ugly.

"Yes, this blood is stained with the curse, and everything that sticks to the blood will be marked with the curse." Chestnuts said affirmatively, "So ...... now."

"How could I be so unlucky!" Ueki now feels that his hands are super cheap, why did he touch those blood just now.

"Mr. Four Leaves, do you have any way?" Inukai asked, looking at his hands full of plasma, his condition seemed to be much worse than Ueki.

"No, the officer on duty is a first-level investigator in the zero department, and I am only a second-level investigator." Shiba looked at Chestnut and asked, "Miss Chestnut, since you can see it, is there a solution?" ”

"I could only see a mark, a cursed mark where the blood was stained, it should be a seed." Chestnut said, "If you cut this part thoroughly......

"It's just a seed, it shouldn't be a big problem. As long as the owner of the seed has no ill will, the curse will not occur. Shiba glanced at Inukai and said, "Miss Chestnut, please stay in Inukai's hands, in that case, you can temporarily isolate the perception of the absolute." ”

"Hey, what should I do then? This curse is obviously left by the weirdness in this ancient castle, and four of them have already died, how can there be no malice! Ueki said with some despair.

"Why don't you get out of this castle and try it." Shiba looked at the deflated Ueki and said with a smile, "Take a gamble, this is not a geographical curse." ”

"I'm ......," Ueki snorted, "I've been miserable by you guys this time." ”

"Don't worry, you haven't been contaminated much, even if something really happens, it's the police officers just now." Shiba patted Ueki's shoulder, signaling him to rest assured, "Knowing the way the curse harms people, with your strength, you should be able to deal with it if you are careful." ”

The three of them directly entered a secret room, which should belong to a very difficult secret room, with a total of six rooms, six scenes, and eight plots.

If you let them play the secret room, it will be difficult to clear the secret room in an hour and a half. But now most of the mechanisms were closed and the doors were opened, so it only took them half an hour to search the room.

"The story here is that there was a vampire who killed a man named Hirohiko Asai, but Hirohiko Asai didn't know it. Then this Asai Hirohiko survived for several months with his blood sucked out of his body, until he went to the hospital to have his blood drawn. Then he became the ghost of the hospital room, wandering around the hospital's blood test department every midnight. Siye patted the script in his hand and said, "Don't you think this story is familiar?" ”

"You mean the guy who was drained of blood and then moved inside this castle for a long time?" Ueki immediately realizes that Yotsuha is referring to the victim.

"No, I'm referring to the supernatural incident in Shinjuku twenty-one years ago." Shiye put down the script, "That time, two duty officers and two first-level investigators were dispatched, and the vampire was successfully treated at the cost of one death and two injuries. ”

"Based on real events? But weren't the vampires retired? ”

"Yes, as I said earlier, weirdness can't go against the legend." Shiba took the book in his hand and said, "What if there are old objects from that time in this room?" Or there is a strange existence in this room itself, but this strange person did not have the ability to harm people before, and he didn't even have a spirit body. But the legend spread, then it has. ”

"You can't live if you do your own evil, but it's a pity that you hurt others." Ueki said helplessly, "But do you think it's the one who became an evil spirit, a vampire or a man named Hirohiko Asai?" ”

"It would be nice if it was Hirohiko Asai, at most just find a substitute for the dead." Four leaves said helplessly, "It's been replaced, we just need to face a newly dead revenant, I'm afraid I'm afraid that this is a vampire legend to form a curse." ”
