"Ahh

Seeing an extra arch on the wall, the boy looked very happy, like a great hero waiting for recognition, with his face cocked and his head held high.

And Kamiyagawa just pressed the head of the little god of good fortune: "Zashiki, you go back to the bell first, and when you return to reality, I will praise you well." ”

Zashiki nodded obediently, and turned into transparent smoke and drilled back into the golden ball bell.

In the statue showroom, only two combat units remained, Kamiya and Hannya.

"There is still an unexplored hidden area in the novice village, and I don't know what will be inside."

Kamiyagawa clenched his firewood knife and maintained a certain degree of caution as he stepped into the stone arch.

Xiao Panruo floated slightly into the air, raised his head and lowered his chin, his slender waist straight, and his hands were gently crossed and overlapped in front of his body, quietly following the side and back of his own onmyoji.

Inside the stone arch.

Unlike what Kamiyagawa had imagined, the interior of this hidden area doesn't look mysterious enough, and it's still the same as a school building.

However, compared with the teaching building of Hualing School outside, it looks much older.

The hidden area is filled with the stale smell of decay and mold, and looks roughly like a schoolhouse cloister, but there are no windows, only mottled walls.

The depths were dark and drowsy, and I didn't know what it was.

"Does the environment resemble an unknown old schoolhouse?" Kamiyagawa looked around and said to himself.

He took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and at the same time, he also successfully checked the mission information in "Strange Tales of Things".

There are two main quests that have been completed so far.

are all regional tasks of Hua Ling's trick school, one is to retreat from Hanako; The other is to explore more than 80% of the school map.

Among them, the progress of the map exploration mission is 82% when it is completed.

And as soon as you enter this hidden corridor of the old school building, the 82% exploration rate rises to 83%.

"Huh?" Kamiya raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Could it be, this hidden area is the 18% that has not been explored in the novice village, right?" ”

When he finished the Hanazu School before, Kamiyagawa had a preconceived idea that the 18% of the unexplored area was the bottom of the artificial lake.

But now it seems that his idea is most likely wrong.

The cloister of the old school building behind the hidden door is the unknown 18%.

And the bottom of the artificial lake is probably not calculated by "Strange Tales of Things" into the map range of the Flower Bell Trick School at all.

"If it weren't for the Zashiki, I guess I would have to wait until I have the ability to fully explore the bottom of the artificial lake in the future, and then I will notice that the map of the original novice village is boring."

Thinking so, Kamiyagawa held up his phone a little and began to explore the corridor of the old schoolhouse.

The floor under your feet is wooden, and it creaks when you step on it.

Where the pillar of light shines, fine dust dances.

Where the pillar of light does not shine, it is dark, unknown, and intimidating.

There was no room in the cloister that could be entered, so he walked cautiously for a few minutes before Kamiyagawa suddenly stopped.

At the same time, Pranya, who was following behind him, put his hand lightly on Kamiya's shoulder as a warning.

In front of a person and a spirit, a dozen steps away, a figure could be seen.

Stood there silently, motionless.

"Something wrong?"

Kamiyagawa held the [blood-stained wood knife] in front of him, and hit the flashlight beam of the mobile phone towards the position where the figure was.

In the light, Kamiya could see that the thing on the other side was not human, not even a humanoid creature.

It's a statue.

"Another statue?"

Glancing at the Pranya beside him, Kamiyagawa took another step and began to move forward.

It can be seen that standing alone in the corridor of the old school building seems to be a brass statue.

The image of a little boy with his hair tied in a bun, carrying a bundle of firewood on his back, and holding an open book in his hand.

Also, it's worth noting.

In the dusty cloister of the old schoolhouse, the statue has a characteristic full of disobedience-

It's dusty.

"Is this a bronze statue of Kinjiro Ninomiya?"

Once he got closer, Kamiyagawa recognized the statue's identity.

Kinjiro Ninomiya.

He was an agrarian politician and thinker of the last Edo period in Japan, and was engaged in the rural revival movement.

It is said that Kinjiro's family was poor, and when he was a child, he had to go up to the mountains to chop firewood to make ends meet, and he could not go to school like ordinary children. In addition to chopping firewood every day, he reads while carrying firewood.

When he grew up, Konjiro became a scholar who everyone respected, and because of his childhood experience, he was regarded as a symbol of hard work and hard work.

The Japanese worship him as the "god of learning", and even worship his statue in some school-seeking shrines.

In addition, there is such a thing as "the god of learning". More than 10 years ago, many elementary and junior high schools in Japan could also see the statue of Kinjiro Ninomiya.

However, for some reason, the statues of Ninomiya were slowly removed from various schools.

Jingle Bell –

The golden ball bell in the [Mirage Cloth Bag] rang by itself, and it was the seat that rattled the bell inside.

The little god of good fortune must have sensed the existence of good things around him.

This time the rattle was particularly loud.

"So, is there anything special about this statue?" Kamiyagawa stepped forward with Pranya to take a closer look.

The moment he approached the statue of Kinjiro Ninomiya.

Titicaca –

The brass statue made a jerky and clumsy metal grinding sound.

Kinjiro Ninomiya turned his head stiffly and mechanically, his hollow eyes meeting Kamiyagawa's.

Titicaca –

It's a jerky metallic sound again.

The bronze statue of Konjiro Ninomiya glanced at Kamiyagawa, then turned around sharply, stepped out of his brass legs, which should not be so flexible in theory, and ran away as if flying.

"A bronze statue that can run?"

The sudden change made Kamiyagawa stunned.

He used the flashlight of his mobile phone to shine forward, and he could see the back of the bronze statue fading away.

In addition, on the bundle of firewood carried by the bronze statue, there was something very conspicuous tied -

It was a wooden sign.

To be precise, it is a shrine, and it is impossible to see what is enshrined on it.

Moreover, the shrine is not made of brass, and it is not one with the statue.

It seems that it can be picked up as a prop.

Zashiki had just rattled the bell with all his might, probably sensing the existence of this prop.

"Doesn't that wooden card look exactly like my save point?"

Special items that exist in hidden areas?

It is said that the bronze statue of Kinjiro Ninomiya carries special props, and he runs away when he sees people.

Is this a dung beetle?

"Chase! Don't let the statue of Kinjiro Ninomiya run away, it has good things on its back! ”

Kamiyagawa finally reacted and quickly ordered to the equally confused Pranya on the side.

One person, one spirit, and a moving bronze statue began to launch a fierce chase in the corridor of the old school building in the hidden area of the Flower Bell School......
