"Help me? How to save it? ”

Kamiyagawa no longer maintained the posture of approaching Shikanoya Yukino, and moved away from her slightly, but his eyes were still full of amusement and curiosity.

At the same time, his right hand was always hidden under his long coat, and the handle of the gun holding the [Banshee] did not relax.

"That's it...... It is. Seeing that the man in front of him had distanced himself from him, Shianoya calmed down a little, "Don't believe what I said, I'm serious." ”

"Hmm."

"I'm not scaring you, but I noticed you as soon as I saw you in the evening. You're haunted by evil spirits, and you have an ominous aura on you! ”

Little JC put on a serious expression and said it matter-of-factly.

"Oh?" Kamiyagawa couldn't hold back and grinned.

And his reaction, which was seen by Kanoya as a sign of contempt, caused the girl's dissatisfaction: "I knew you didn't believe me." But what I'm saying is true! I'm not a liar and I won't ask you for money or anything! ”

"No, I do." Kamiyagawa put away his presumptuous smile, "Since I'm entangled by evil spirits, what should I do?" ”

"Huh?" Kanoya Yukino obviously didn't expect Kamiya to say this, hesitated for a while, and his tone became uncertain, "Anyway, let's leave Oguri Island quickly, and then go to Aomori Prefecture to find a big shrine or temple to pay homage or something." ”

"Why hurry up?"

"Because this island is not safe. And if you're a physique that's easy to conjure, it's even less safe for you. ”

"Why isn't it safe?" Kamiyagawa heard something in the tomboy's words.

"There are so many whys, anyway, you have to get out quickly. Also, the ancient mother-in-law told me that you are a college student who studies folklore and monsters, and you came to Oguri Island to study the red stingrays here. I advise you not to study it, it will really be dangerous, hurry up and go - that, that, sorry. I asked the second-hand granny about your privacy, and there was no malice. ”

"It's okay, I don't care. Tell me about Lady Tinray? ”

"It's all said that it's dangerous, so you don't want to study it. You just don't believe me. Shikanoya was dissatisfied again.

Kamiya let go of the [Banshee], reached into his pocket with his right hand, and turned to hold the [One Thousand Silver Needles].

The little silver stick, which is useless against ordinary people but is useless in the face of strange talk or humans with extraordinary strength, did not heat up this time.

It's dumbfounded.

"By the way, how did you notice that I was entangled by evil spirits?" Kamiyagawa changed the subject and tried to continue the conversation with JC in front of him.

"This ......"

Probably to make his words convincing, Kanoya Yukino opened his bag.

She rummaged through it and found a pendant.

The pendant appears to be silver, with a curved moon on one end and a long strip of white crystal on the other.

This is no ordinary pendant.

Kamiyagawa felt a little fluctuation of extraordinary power from above, and it is estimated that if "Strange Tales of Things" is evaluated, the high and low will give a [excellent] item rating.

"This is my pendulum." Kanoya said.

As she spoke, she grabbed the end of the pendulum's curved arc and let it droop naturally.

I saw that the white crystal at the end began to shake slightly, and after shaking for a while, it began to automatically turn counterclockwise.

Kanoya moved the spirit closer to the Kamiya River.

The pendulum swayed even more, and the frequency of the counterclockwise rotation was much faster.

"The pendulum reacts to you. First of all, I didn't move my hands and feet, you can see that my hands didn't move. It's because you have the breath of evil spirits in you that makes you like this. Probably because Kamiya didn't want to believe it, Kanoya emphasized, and added at the end, "Don't look at me like this, in fact, I'm a psychic." Really, trust me. ”

"Hehe, I believe it."

Kamiyagawa smiled and nodded at her.

[One Thousand Silver Needles] did not react to Shikanoya, indicating that she had some extraordinary power in her body.

"It's best if you believe it!" Kanoya laughed, and it seemed to make her happy to be recognized, "It's rare for you to be so persuaded, I thought you would take me for a liar." Then you hurry up and go to the middle-aged granny to rest, and take the ferry tomorrow. ”

"No, I'm not leaving."

"Why? They all said that there was danger on this island. ”

"As you just said, there are so many whys." Kamiyagawa continued in a childlike tone:

"I have my own reasons, or else. How about you answering the question I just asked you, and I've answered your current question? ”

"You!"

Kanoya was annoyed and didn't answer Kamiya's words.

It seems that coaxing the child is a failure.

She was obviously reluctant to talk to Kamiyagawa about more details about things on the island.

After a few seconds, Shikanoya seemed to have made a decision, crouched down, opened the bag and fumbled around it for a while, this time taking out a deck of cards.

As she was picking up her bag, Kamiyagawa glanced at it with slightly condensed eyes.

I saw that she also had a lot of paper in her bag, which looked like hand-drawn drawings.

The content of the painting is not complete.

But on the first one, it seems that a mature woman and a little boy are depicted facing each other.

Is this a heartwarming story?

Mom and son?

Kanoya looked left and right and closed his bag.

Kamiyagawa also retracted his gaze at the same time.

Kanoya spread the bag on the ground, washed the stack of cards in his hands at random, and then placed the cards on top of the bag and beckoned to Kamiyagawa:

"Don't think about anything, draw one from the tarot card."

"What is this for?"

"Divination, divination. I can't persuade you, and I can't put you on tomorrow's ferry. If you have to stay here, I'll help you see what's next. Lu Yewu didn't raise his head, "Draw one, just one, let's use the easiest way." No charge, hurry. ”

"Okay."

Kamiyagawa laughed, but crouched down cooperatively.

The heart said that this JC will be quite mixed, and it is all imported technology.

He raised his hand and drew a random card from the deck.

There are no energy fluctuations on this tarot card, just ordinary mortal things.

"Give."

Kamiyagawa handed the card he had drawn to Kanoya.

"I have a feeling that the results of this divination will be very accurate. I've been playing tarot for so many years, and it's the first time I've had such a strong sense of inspiration! Kanoya took the card, his expression slightly excited.

"Why do you say that?"

"Psychic's intuition!"

Kamiyagawa draws a tarot card with a roulette wheel drawn on it.

Above the roulette wheel is the Sphinx, which symbolizes angels, and below is the devil. It is surrounded by goddesses, swans, poisonous snakes, etc., which symbolize encounters in various environments in fate.

The tenth of the tarot cards, the Wheel of Fortune.

"The Wheel of Fortune in Reversal."

Shikanoya frowned slightly, took the tarot card in his hand and felt it for a while, trying to interpret it.

"Your destiny is like a wheel of fortune spinning in tarot cards, sometimes good and sometimes bad, it's a fair cycle. The Wheel of Fortune may stop at an angle you like, or it may stop at an angle you don't like. ”

"Whether you like it or not, fate is so merciless. Life itself is in constant flux, and your life is destined to be full of challenges and excitement. ”

"Roulette reversed, indicating that you will suffer many setbacks later on. Your future is an endless thorn, but if you stick to the past, it will be a smooth road. ”

Kanoya Yukino read the book and said it without any flexibility.

In the current humble streets and alleys, in the dim environment, this guy squatted on the ground and looked like he was seriously doing divination and interpretation, looking a little funny.

"I understand, if you don't come to Jitai, you will turn evil into good fortune, right? Will my trip to Oguri Island be safe and rewarding in the end? ”

"Why are you so optimistic! The reversed wheel of fortune also shows that if you are not careful, you may not recover, okay? Maybe you haven't waited for the auspicious moment before the person is gone? ”

Kanoya looked up and retorted to Kamiya.

"Everything has to be on the good side."

"Trouble. I don't want to care about you anymore, anyway, divination has done it for you. If you don't want to leave, ask for your own blessings. ”

"Thank you then? By the way, you're here at night, are you waiting for someone? ”

"Uh......! It has nothing to do with you, right? Hurry up and get out anyway! ”

Kanoya shook his head and put away the tarot cards.

Kamiyagawa just smiled at her and didn't say anything more.

This JC can be determined to have some skills that ordinary people do not have.

For example, if you can see the "evil spirit breath" on Kamiya's body, it is estimated that you feel the breath of Kamiya's strange gods.

But......

Kamiyagawa looked over Kanoya Yukino's right shoulder again.

There, the little old man was sitting upright, spreading his hands helplessly towards Kamiya.

"The little old man's body has been with Luyeya since evening, but she doesn't seem to notice it at all. Although, the little old man is the kind of person I am best at concealing the breath, but sure enough, this JC is a half-psychic, right? A bit of a skill, but not a lot of ......"

Kamiyagawa thought so.

However, it is not entirely conclusive.

It cannot be ruled out that Shikanoya was aware of the existence of the little old man mini, but pretended not to care.

If that's the case, this little JC's evaluation in Kamiya's mind will rise a few more points.

"Another ......"

Kamiyagawa narrowed his eyes slightly, and the black hole became deeper.

He is different from Kanoya Yukina, and he doesn't need to use props like the spirit pendulum at all.

Entering this state of "discernment", Kamiyagawa could see that Kanoya's body was stained with some evil aura.

These breaths do not belong to the little old man.

It's very thin, like a black veil, sticking to Kanoya Yukino and fluttering.

"It's a bit like the weird talk I saw in the streets just now. There may be some connection between Shikanoya and the unknown strange story that is not too weak. She's here tonight, most likely waiting for that weird talk, right? ”

Kamiyagawa thought so.

But he said, "Then I'll go back to the hotel to rest first." You little girl, don't stay outside too long on a big night. ”

"Let's go, you, really, don't know good people's hearts." Shikanoya flicked the short hair in his ear, "I know you won't listen, but you'd better get out of here tomorrow." ”

"Got it, got it."

Kamiyagawa waved his hand at her and turned to leave.

He went straight back to the "Middle House" hotel, entered his room on the second floor, closed the door, and once again took out the bronze match of the bird.

"Abba woohoo!"

The little old man's body appeared in response to the call.

"Use your doppelganger to continue following the girl named Kanoya Yukino. She must know something about the island, but she is still wary of me and is reluctant to talk about it. ”

"In addition, there should be a powerful strange story behind that girl, and it is not yet certain whether it is Lord Red Stingray. Hiss...... She stressed to me that it would be dangerous not to continue studying the red stingray. So, I feel like the weird talk behind her may not be a red ray, but something else. ”

"Shikanoya looks completely half-and doesn't look like a dangerous person, but it's hard to say what she is behind it."

"And maybe just as we noticed the presence behind Shikanoya, maybe the thing behind her has noticed us and is watching. In the future, I may be able to contact the one behind her through Shikanoya. ”

"If you can get in touch, the situation on this island will probably be clear, but I'm an outsider on this island, so it's better not to rush it now."

"When should your doppelganger get a closer look at Kanoya, and when should you stay away a little bit to give her and the person behind her some space...... It's up to you to take care of it. ”

Kamiyagawa said this to the little old man, and by the way, he analyzed the situation in front of him.

"Aba! Aba! ”

The little old man clenched his fist and hammered his bare chest, indicating that he understood.

……

"It's strange, I said I was going to come to Asakawa's house tonight to see the situation, why didn't you show up to look for me? Is it because the 'Reverse Wheel of Fortune' is nearby? ”

Kanoya Yukino carried her bag and walked in the direction of home with a puzzled face.

Obviously, she didn't see the person she wanted to see in the streets tonight.

At this time, the little old man mini was no longer on her shoulders.

Shikanoya's house is in the center of Oguri Town, where she lives with her father. But these days, Dad went out to fish, and she was the only one in the family.

The JC psychic took out the key, opened the door, and saw a very strange thing at the entrance of his house.

It was a statue of Jizo, with a round head and a round head, and a red silk scarf around its neck.

Standing abruptly at the entrance like that, out of place with everything around it, the end of the silk scarf was windless.

"Eight-foot-sama!"

Kanoya Yukino was so happy that he didn't even have time to change his shoes, so he greeted him.

“po~po~po~”

From the side of the Jizo statue, a tall white figure slowly stood up, occupying the entire entrance.

She looks like a woman wearing a white round hat, long black hair, and a white slip dress.

Eight-foot woman.

It is also known as the eight-foot adult, or the eight-foot style.

It is a famous urban legend in Japan, and it has many similarities with the well-known legends of Europe and the United States.

Therefore, it is sometimes considered to be a new public opinion monster after the introduction of slender ghosts and shadows into Japan, which has been produced by motherhood and secondary processing.

If you want to count kinship, in a sense, it can be regarded as the sister of Uncle Thin in the East?

Like the name "Eight Feet", Eight Feet Girl is uniformly described as a tall female ghost who likes to make a weird smile of "po~po~po".

In some stories, it is portrayed as an evil monster who seduces and eats children with beauty.

There are also stories in which the story of the Eight-Foot Adult is more adult-oriented, a lustful tale that is keen on seduction and taking away the virginity of a boy.

Legend has it that the Eight-Foot Woman was sealed in the land that used the Jizo Temple to set up an enchantment, and the destruction of the seal would cause her to reappear.

"Yachi-sama, have you ever been to Asakawa House?"

Kanoya Yukino seems to have a special relationship with the eight-foot girl, and there is closeness in her tone.

"One copy."

The eight-foot woman raised her hand and pressed the brim of her white hat, and smiled at Kanoya, the red beauty mole at the corner of her mouth was charming, and her voice was as gentle as a serenade chanted to her lover.

Because she was in the room, the eight-foot woman bent down as much as she could.

This forced action made her huge body appear more convex and backward, and the long skirt with high slits swayed, revealing a large area of delicate and fleshy white under the skirt.

"I know, we made an appointment." Kanoya Yukino raised his head, his face full of seriousness, "I'm already drawing, I'm painting." ”
