Chen Qiang frowned.

Not only Helena, but Mitarai also concealed the facts, and almost all the veteran investigators were aware of it, but only Helena chose to spread the word.

"As far as I know, even if you accept the blood of the Skeleton Eaters, it will take a long time to complete the transformation of humans into Skeleton Eaters." Helena said.

"You're right." Mr. Mitarai said calmly.

"Not to mention, even if you become a Skeleton Eater, you have already mastered the magic of transforming back into human form. But why do you say you've never been home? Helena asked bluntly, "You didn't have to. Choosing not to go back to the mountains of Hokkaido, is it really necessary for you? ”

"Hah...... I really asked. Lawyer Robin clasped his hands to his chest, and his eyes gleamed strangely.

"I know a bone-eater who lives in human society," Chen Qiang thought of Uncle Xu, "and after he changed to a bone-eater, he has been living with his wife and daughter......

Chen Qiang made his tone a little lower: "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. If it touches your heart, allow me to apologize to you. However, you are our ally, and we want to know you and your clan as much as possible. ”

Because of Uncle Xu, Chen Qiang's ghoul didn't have any bad feelings, but he still cooperated with Helena to get more words out of his mouth.

“……”

Mitarai was silent for a long time. In the end, he finally made up his mind.

"Mr. Chen Qiang, and this lady, please ...... Don't tell anyone outside of here what I'm saying," Mitarai lowered his voice, "Actually, there was another person besides me who was climbing the mountain with me at the time. ”

"Could it be ......" everyone vaguely guessed something.

"I also have a fellow traveler. He was my senior, and we often climbed together and climbed together. The two of us were in distress together, but he was more seriously injured than I was," Mitarai said slowly, with a deep sadness in his tone, "Together, we built a giant SOS symbol on the ground with birch branches. However...... Three days have passed, and still no one has come to save us. We were desperate to see the helicopter hovering in the distance and left without seeing our distress signal. ”

"So you ......"

Mitarai's voice suddenly became extremely calm: "So I said to him, 'I'll be back soon,' and fled alone. When I woke up...... It was too late. I...... Committed an unforgivable crime. ”

"You chose to be rescued alone." Mrs. Meghan said.

"I understand your choice, and I understand why you are so remorseful," said lawyer Robin, who would not hesitate to do so for the sake of his own life, "and no one can condemn you." ”

"But after all, that's the best senior with me," Mitarai said, "no one knew that we were climbing together, and I survived, and the disappearance of the senior was judged to be a separate disappearance." In addition to living in isolation...... I can't think of any way to atone for my seniors. ”biquge.biz

Chen Qiang touched his chin. This Mitarai is a typical Toei person, but his words always feel that something is not natural.

"Do you have any contact with your family?" Chen Qiang asked tentatively.

Mitarai hesitated.

"They don't care about me," Mitarai said calmly, "and at first I mailed them a few times, and they thought I was working in Russia in the north." After that, I didn't contact them again. Me and my new friend...... My kind live together. ”

A moment of silence. No one spoke.

"A few years ago, I heard that the marker we built and the body of the senior were found by the authorities," Mitarai sighed lightly, "I can't save the senior, so I can only silently watch over his soul here." ”

Chen Qiang's heart moved.

Mitarai's story is a sigh of relief, but his final exclamation reveals a hint of disobedience to the tragedy he tells.

Helena has personally come into contact with more mythical races than Chen Qiang, and her suspicions are heavier than Chen Qiang.

That's right......

Helena Blavatsky was convinced that her instincts were right.

She was keenly aware that there was still a contradiction in Mitarai's last words.

Since Mitarai was rescued by a friendly ghoul, why didn't he go back to rescue his companions?

Even if he decided it was too late, how could he completely abandon the corpse?

If he really wanted to atone for his sins, how could he let his senior expose his corpse to the wilderness and only be discovered by others many years later?

Unless......

Mitarai understood from the beginning that it would be useless even if he went back by himself.

In that desperate situation, it is understandable to leave even your companions alone to ask for help.

Mitarai did not let his companions "wait where they were". By the time he left his senior, his senior was dead.

Even the continuous temptation could not pry the truth of that day out of Mitarai's mouth. Mitari washes him——

She looked at Chen Qiang and the others beside her. Others should have noticed the contradiction in Mitarai's words.

Chen Qiang did not speak. Helena thought of everything he thought, but when his eyes met Mitarai, he realized something more—

There is not only one possibility.

Chen Qiang intuitively felt that the truth might not be the worst one.

"You're talking too much, Mitarai."

In the shadows of the building, a priest dressed in a purple robe and wearing a silver mask stepped out.

Lawyer Robin frowned. The voice coming from under the mask was a female voice.

A female ghoul priest? This has never been seen before.

"Yes!" Mitarai had a frightened expression.

【？？？ Psychology test 63/90 success】

"Dear Mr. Chen Qiang, Mr. Selman, Mrs. Meghan, Ms. Helena, and ...... Uh......"

The purple-robed priest's gaze swept over everyone present. When she saw Khira, there was a distinctly unnatural pause, her expression was not visible through the mask.

"Please allow me to apologize to you on behalf of Mitarai. It's been a long time since he's been talking to anyone other than the 'Hiding House', so it's inevitable that he's a little talkative. The woman's voice was as clear as the water of a summer lake, but her pupils were bright blood red.

"Where. We also heard a good story. Attorney Robin straightened his hat.

"Humanity is forever trying to judge other races with the greatest malice. It's true that Mitarai isn't an honest guy. But I also want you to believe that the servants of God in our hiding places will not shelter criminals. Stand down, Mitarai. ”
