The content of the story is very detailed, and the moon seems to be a witness to that event. She doesn't seem to be very old, basically the same age as Ruiji, the incident happened in 1993, a full 30 years ago, and she was not born yet.

But the witch's intelligence network is so powerful that any rare information can be unearthed by them, and it makes sense to know some strange things out of the way.

The strange tale of Kiruzuki Station is widely spread in Japan, and not only the people of the Kanto region, but also the people of Kansai, Kyushu, and Shikoku have heard of it, and it is one of the most famous strange tales worthy of the name.

It is too arbitrary to conclude that the story of the moon is made, and it is also rude to interrupt the story. Riji decided to listen quietly to the end, and then ask the accumulated questions in her mind one by one.

She ripped open a second bitter dark chocolate stick, letting the taste of cocoa butter melt in her mouth and keep her brain awake. Seeing this, Yue also stopped drinking a little mineral water he brought to moisten his dry throat, and then continued to speak.

"The Metropolitan Police Department of Japan at the time, ahem...... You know, the police witches are very delicate in their ability and motivation to handle cases, and if it's not a particularly major case, they will wait a few days before going out.

The disappearance of the girl was not taken seriously, and even though the mothers went to report the disappearance of their daughter that night, the inspector in charge of receiving them at the time thought that the girl was playful or staying at a friend's house in Tokyo, and that she would soon return home. ”

"Indeed, that's why law and order were so bad at that time."

Ratchet feels sorry for the protagonist in the story. If the inspector had more snacks, it wouldn't have turned into a big regional weirdo. You can guess with your toes that a lonely witch in the middle of the night will encounter danger in an unfamiliar place.

There is also a decisive factor in encountering danger, and it is also the main reason why Japanese police witches do not pay attention to it.

"Youling is a weak witch, right? It's still the kind born of ordinary people and witches. ”

"That's right."

Yue opened the nest of Webley's revolver, took out a square metal box from his backpack, and took out two sets of bullets. Bullets come in groups of six, and one set is just enough to fill a gun.

She has two of them, and the bullets have all been worn out in the skirmish just now, so it is best to take this opportunity to replenish them. Fighting requires constant running, and it can be difficult to stop and find a safe corner to reload, and the slightest negligence can put you in danger.

"Chiyo Naling is first of all the offspring of the combination of a weak witch and an ordinary human, and then a weak witch. The imprint of non-pure-blood witches and weak witches hit her, and she had to endure the prejudice of many people. To this day, the prejudice against non-pure-blood witches in the witch world has not improved much, even if they are excellent, their job search will be repeatedly frustrated, and it is difficult to enjoy the most ordinary benefits of pure-blood witches. ”

A cold wind blew, and the sound was like that of a girl hiding in a field and secretly grieved, and her mouth made an intermittent whimper. Yue's expression was slightly moved, and she looked particularly sad in the red moonlight.

"It wasn't until the seventh day of Yonary's disappearance that the Wakayama Prefectural Police Headquarters sent personnel to the site of the incident to launch a large-scale search, but because the case had taken so long, it had rained heavily for several days in Nara Prefecture at the time, and all the evidence was washed away. The investigation lasted for more than a year, and no one was born, no body was found, and the case became an unsolved case.

I happened to look at the photos published in the Asahi Shimbun in 2003, and I did a little research on all kinds of urban weird stories, and I realized that this guy was weird. That's all I know, Miss Sakuma, do you have any clue? ”

Moon handed over the right to speak to Riji, who had been nibbling on chocolate beside her.

A one-sided narrative doesn't count as a complete exchange of information, and she has to give some clues in return. The content of the case could not be further provided, and apparently Yue knew better than she did.

If it's the Sakuma family's way of cracking the regional weirdness, there should be value in exchanging it. In order to survive, leaving Asahina and Ruzuki Station, Ruiji does not plan to hide.

"My mother had a lot of experience in cracking regional weird stories in the early years, and I learned some about it. Each regional weird talk has [specific rules], and the entrant needs to find a way to break the rules within a certain period of time, so that the weird talk can take the initiative to let people leave, which is equivalent to a ...... Puzzle game? ”

Such a unique way to crack is rare in the witch world.

The normal witch's method is to use force to tear open a crack in the world of strange tales to return to reality, and leave before the rift closes, or use force to cause the main monster in this area to be seriously injured and fall into a deep sleep, waiting for the exit to appear automatically.

Through layers of precise reasoning, the solution of playing brain tactics with strange talks, Yue is still the first time I have heard of it.

Witches are a race that is extremely martial arts, and there are two, three things that cannot be solved by magic, and they believe that everything cannot be conquered without magic.

The witch who likes to crack the hidden rules of strange stories is rarer than the probability of two weak witches combining to give birth to a big witch.

"So, how do we find the law behind it?"

Tsuki slipped the last silver rose bullet into the brass nest and put it in its place. The revolver stained with blood-colored moonlight is both simple and bewitching, but it also brings a strong sense of security.

Ruiji habitually strokes the pattern of the scabbard of the knife in his hand. She used to have the habit of stroking the bamboo knife, but now she can't change it to a real knife.

The act of stroking brings her benign psychological cues, such as calming her mood.

"The mother left very little information, only mentioning that not every inch of land inside the regional monster is dangerous, first find a safe area to set up camp, first use detection magic to create a sphere and throw it in, that sphere is equivalent to the witch's doppelganger, if the color of the ball does not turn black, that place is harmless to the witch, on the contrary, harmful. For the rest, the weird talk will tell us. ”

After going around and around, they had to go back to the place where there was a building in Asahina. Since they can't return to the real world for a while, the magic power of the two is not enough to tear a hole in the strange talk, and they haven't even found the main strange talk, and the most stable strategy is to crack the stream.

The square in front of the town was very close to the houses that were lined up, and the light from the window, and the dark shadows passing by the window, looked extremely strange and suspicious to Riji's eyes.

It is not possible to stay overnight. It was certainly not a human being who opened the door, but an indescribable inhuman thing.

Tsuki's gaze locked on the houses that were far away from the cluster and scattered in the far corners of Asahina Town. There were no lights in the house, and there were no scary carp streamers in the courtyard.

"Do you want to try the house over there?"

She pointed to one of the small buildings with a courtyard. The small building is directly opposite the shrine on the hill, and it is built on a slope, and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, making it an excellent campsite.
