Chapter Fifty-Nine: Unclean
Nanahara Takeshi's living room was originally very shabby, and it was nothing to say anything except a few simple pieces of furniture, but now a famous painting suspected to be worth tens of millions of yen was suddenly hung on the wall, and the style really improved a lot.
Well, at least that's how Ruri Kiyomi feels, she ate another bowl of rice than usual, and it's definitely not because the Spanish ham cheese rolls made by Takeshi Nanahara are so delicious.
Seriously, since she worked with Nanahara Takeshi, her meal volume has increased significantly, and she used to eat one bowl of dinner at home, but when she arrived at Qihara Takeshi, she started with three bowls, and she still wanted to eat four bowls tonight, but she was too embarrassed to scrape the bottom of the pot, so she could only forget it.
She ate very comfortably, and after cleaning up the table, she accompanied Nanahara Takeshi to drink food and drink food tea together, she was too lazy to move, holding the delicate celadon tea bowl and humming quietly, when the knock on the door suddenly sounded, ruining this rare leisurely moment.
She muttered, took the initiative to get up and went to the entrance, and quickly opened the door through the cat's eyes, and said excitedly: "Miss Nakano, is there another homicide?" ”
Nakano Eri helped the gold wire glasses, flashing a speechless white light, a little confused about the clear sight of a JK with a face value of up to 90 points, what kind of weird mentality it is to look forward to the dead every day, this hobby is too special.
She was silent for a while, and said directly: "No, I want to meet Nanahara for some personal matters." Then she turned sideways, revealing a person behind her, and introduced, "This is my friend Mariko Hirokawa." ”
Mariko Bikawa is Eri Nakano's college classmate, the two are the same age, and they are dressed similarly, they are both like female elites in the urban workplace, that is, Mariko Bikawa has long hair and big wavy curls, and she looks more charming and feminine than Eri Nakano.
She looked curiously at the homely girl in front of her who was wearing a fitting pig apron, and expected that this was the little girlfriend of Takeshi Shichihara who had been mentioned by her friend before, and immediately bowed her head and said politely: "Classmate Kiyomi, excuse me." ”
"Hello Miss Bichuan, please come in." Kiyomi Ruri is still very polite in terms of receiving people and things every day, and hurriedly invited guests in, and Nanahara Takeshi also greeted him, glanced at Mariko Bikawa, and immediately greeted the guests with a smile.
The two sides sat down separately, Kiyomi Ruri served tea, and went through the process of introducing each other, Eri Nakano's personality was more direct, and the two sides were more familiar, so he immediately helped his glasses and said: "Nanahara-san, Mariko she...... Well, I recently encountered an unexplainable thing, and I found me before, and I didn't have a clue, so I came to ask you about this psychic detective. ”
She probably also read the adapted special report on solving the case, and directly called him a psychic detective, but Nanahara Takeshi was very thick-skinned and didn't care, he looked directly at Mariko Bikawa, and asked with concern: "Miss Nakano is my good friend, Miss Bikawa has something to say, I will do my best to help." ”
"That's presumptuous." Mariko Bikawa bowed slightly politely, and then said hesitantly, "It's not that I encountered something, it's my grandmother, she seems to have encountered ...... Encountered something unclean. ”
"Oh?" Nanahara Takeshi thoughtfully reached into his arms, took out a folding fan, opened it with a "swish", and asked softly while fanning, "Is it something unclean, what do you mean exactly?" ”
"I can't say what I encountered, I'm the first time I've encountered this kind of thing......" Bikawa Mariko is also a highly educated person, although he will also go to the shrine to pray for blessings and draw lots to hang Guima, but it is only treated as a folk tradition, and he doesn't believe much in the gods, ghosts and ghosts, but now he can't explain what he encountered, and he has to believe if he doesn't believe it.
The cause of the incident happened five days ago, and her grandmother, who lived with her, woke up that morning with a very bad face and looked a little dazed, so she asked worriedly, but her grandmother forced a smile and said that it was nothing, but she was going to the shrine today.
She didn't take it seriously at the time, she just thought that the old man didn't rest well that night, so she went to work, and the next day nothing happened, and her grandmother's state seemed to have recovered somewhat, but when she got up for breakfast on the third day, she found that her grandmother's spirit looked worse, and she couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
This time her grandmother couldn't figure it out, so she hesitated to tell her the reason, saying that she dreamed that a man was killed, and that man had been begging before he died, but he was still killed, and suspected that he had accidentally been contaminated with "unclean things", and was going to go to the shrine again today to see if he could purify it.
If that doesn't work, try going to temples and churches again.
At this point, Bikawa Mariko just thought that the old man had a nightmare, in order to calm the old man's heart, he deliberately asked for leave to accompany the old man to the shrine and spent a lot of money to ask the imperial guard to come back to ward off evil spirits, but it was still only used for one day, and on the fifth day, her grandmother's state was even worse, and her mind seemed to be in a serious trance, saying that she had the same dream again, and even the dream this time was more specific, and even the surnames of the man who was killed and the murderer were reported - the surname of the man who was killed was Kameda, and the surname of the person who killed him was Aiura, and the two mentioned it during their conversation, and she heard it clearly in this dream.
Things have developed to this extent, even if Mariko Bikawa is highly educated, she can't continue to ignore feudal superstition if she doesn't believe in feudal superstition, otherwise her grandmother, who has been very fond of her since she was a child, will be bad, and immediately call her old classmate Nakano Eri, who is a policeman, to ask if there has been a murder recently, and if a man surnamed Kameda has ever died.
For Eri Nakano, the senior affairs officer of the Criminal Department, it was easy to investigate this kind of thing, and immediately went through the files of the recent homicide case, and it turned out that he really found a case five days ago, a man named Atsushi Kameda was killed in a corner of Furuta Park, and the murderer Aiura Jimitsu has been arrested, and the human and material evidence is complete, and he has been sent for examination, and is queuing up to go to court.
The victim and the murderer turned out to be on the right side, and after Nakano Eri checked and said to Bikawa Mariko, both of them felt unbelievable, completely incomprehensible, and they didn't understand what the situation was after analyzing it together for a long time, so they could only plan to find a professional to ask, so Nakano Eri thought of Takeshi Nanahara.
Even if the old criminal policeman of Anto Wu thinks that Takeshi Nanahara is a reserve of a fraudster, but Eri Nakano feels that Takeshi Nanahara really seems to have some special abilities, so it is better to find a life than to be familiar with this kind of thing, even if Takeshi Shichihara is a reserve of a fraudster, at least he is a capable fraudster reserve, and it is more reliable than finding a strange exorcist, so he quickly brought his old classmates here - this matter has nothing to do with the police station, it is simply her personal matter, but it is still very important.
After Mariko Bikawa finished speaking, Nanahara Takeshi fanned the wind, separated the smell of perfume on her body, closed her eyes and pondered, and did not speak for a while.
Kiyomi Ruri was also stunned, and felt that it probably meant that Atsushi Kameda was killed and became a supernatural substance such as a resentful spirit, and somehow ran to Grandma Mariko Bikawa, this thing ......
Let's not talk about science or not, you can say that Atsushi Kameda is dead and wants to take revenge, and it is reasonable to run to pester the murderer, and it makes sense to run to pester an innocent and ordinary old lady, right?
She hesitated and said, "Could it be that Grandma Bichuan just had a nightmare, and happened to see this case on TV or in the newspaper again, and subconsciously connected it?" ”
Eri Nakano lifted his glasses, shook his head and said: "Kameda's case, the murderer was arrested on the same day, and the motive was just a simple vendetta, there was no news at all, and there was no criminal reporter who cared about it at all. ”
"That'...... Could it be that Grandma Bichuan accidentally witnessed the murder scene, and was stimulated to forget it for a while, but remembered it again when she went to bed at night, so she continued to have nightmares? Kiyomi Ruri thought for a while, and then put forward a new idea, feeling that this can make sense, anyway, it is more scientific than being entangled in "unclean things".
This time, Mariko Bikawa shook her head, "My grandmother is over seventy years old, although her health is quite healthy, and she often walks around the town park, but she will not leave her home alone without saying a word, Furuya Park is more than twenty kilometers away from our house, and my grandmother hasn't been there for at least several years." ”
Ah, this ...... Haven't been there in years? Atsushi Kameda has only been dead for five or six days, so he will definitely not be killed.
Kiyomi Ruri fell into contemplation again, thinking about what other scientific explanations could be made, and put forward ideas such as what she heard from her friends, but these Nakano and Bikawa had already considered it and rejected them all, and in the end she couldn't think of any possibility, and looked directly at the psychic detective and professional exorcist Takeshi Nanahara.
Nanahara Takeshi closed the fan and tapped his knee, opened his eyes and nodded: "Accidentally contaminated with 'unclean things' is probably the only explanation at present, I'll go and see it tomorrow, and it's probably no problem to deal with it, tonight...... Miss Bichuan, tonight you should accompany your grandmother to a relative's house to borrow a place to stay or find a hotel to rest, far away from home, to see if the situation will improve. ”
"Okay, I see, my grandmother and I will find a place to stay tonight." Mariko Bikawa nodded, glanced at the old classmate again, and still believed in her judgment, Takeshi Nanahara was a little bit real even if he was young, and immediately took out a white envelope from his brand-name bag and put it on the table, "That Nanahara classmate, I will work hard for you to go tomorrow, and I will pick you up after school tomorrow." ”
Nanahara Takeshi likes this kind of knowledgeable customer, picked up the white envelope and twisted it, the smile on his face was three points more kind, and said politely: "Miss Nakano's friend is my friend, and I shouldn't have collected money, but we have our own rules in this industry, so I have to be ashamed." I'll wait for you after school tomorrow afternoon, Miss Bichuan doesn't have to worry, pay attention to safety on the road. ”
The commission was reached, and Mariko Bikawa had no intention of staying for a long time, and was ready to go home and take her grandmother to live in another place temporarily, and said goodbye directly to Eri Nakano, and wanted to pull her back to be a companion. Things have developed so far, especially after confirming that there has been a homicide, she has also begun to be afraid, in fact, she wants Qiyuan Wu to go back with her tonight to "exorcism", but now the time is indeed a little late, in case the soul is particularly fierce at night, rush out and beat the exorcist to death, it will be all over, it is indeed better to hide first, and wait for the day.
Kiyomi Ruri followed the Nanahara warrior to send them away politely, and when she came back, she cleaned up the table and sat down at the table, and asked Nanahara Takechi, "Is it really Grandma Bikawa who has encountered something unclean?" ”
Qiyuan Wuzheng casually flipped through the idle book, and said without raising his head: "How many times have I told you, there are no ghosts, gods and monsters in this world." I will give the old lady psychological counseling, and then arrange a diet for her, so that she can calm her mind and nourish her for a while, and she will be fine. ”
Kiyomi Ruri was speechless, what kind of professional exorcist is this, just after receiving someone's exorcism money, he said this kind of, it's almost blatantly fooling people.
But this matter sounded a little scary, and it involved a homicide, so she really wanted to discuss it, so she couldn't help but ask, "Then you don't have any ideas now?" ”
"Nope." Qiyuan Wu still didn't care, he had encountered this kind of thing a lot before, "I'm not an immortal, I haven't even seen the master, what can I think?" Okay, Mariko Bikawa is not very good at picking perfumes, and she shouldn't have done much of a bad thing, we can't squeeze her oil and water, so this time it's hard money, you can save some snacks and think less! ”
At this time, he wanted to read quietly, and the housework was done, but it was a bit of an eyesore to see that Ruri was chattering on the side, so he immediately crossed the river and demolished the bridge, waved his hand again, and said, "Don't stay here with me after you get off work, go home quickly." ”
Kiyomi Ruri pouted, got up and took off her apron, picked up her schoolbag and left.
Nasty ghost, as if someone rarely discusses with you, I'll go back and think for myself!
