Chapter 298: Sure enough, it's dead

"It's just some skin trauma, it's not in the way."

Fujino glanced at the scar on his arm, "I guess it should be enough to wrap it with a bandage." ”

"I'll go get the medicine kit."

Gray Yuan Ai didn't say anything, turned around and walked quickly to get the medicine box.

"Is it really okay?"

Momiji looked at Fujino worriedly: "Obviously to protect me from falling from such a high place......"

"It's really okay......"

Fujino moved his arm helplessly: "Aren't I fine, nothing at all." ”

"Really, I'm still reckless even after being injured like this, it's just the same as back then...... I'm going to call someone to come and take you to the hospital......"

Ooka Momiji glanced at Fujino's injuries distressedly, wiped away his tears, and took out a pink flip phone from his pocket.

However, after dialing the phone, there was a burst of voice on the other end of the phone: "Your phone is not in the service area, please dial again later." ”

"Huh?!"

Ooka Momiji was surprised: "How can there be no signal?" ”

"Maybe it's because there is no base station in the deep mountains and old forests."

Gray Yuan Wai walked back with the medicine box, "In this kind of place, it should still be using a landline like a telephone line for communication......"

"Landline ......"

Ooka Momiji suddenly remembered something: "When I first came, I saw a landline phone in the lobby!" ”

"But in this situation, it's still too risky to go to the lobby and make a call."

Xiao Ai took over the conversation, "After all, we just found that dried corpse in the basement. ”

"Dry Corpse ......"

Momiji recalled the scene just now, and seemed a little apprehensive, "Could it be the same as Xiao Ai said, is it the villager who was sacrificed?" ”

"It's just a joke."

Fujino chuckled: "Maybe it's just some local customs or something, for example, the dead relatives need to hide in their own villa or something, as for the injuries on my body, it's really not a big deal." ”

"Compared to these, the most important thing is to take care of the wounds on his body as soon as possible."

Xiao Ai put down the medicine box, found a bandage from it, and turned his head to look at Red Leaves: "Miss, come and help." ”

"Oh...... Oh! ”

The red leaf chick nodded pecked, and was surprised by Xiao Ai's calm appearance.

To be honest, since she met this little girl, she has always felt a little weird.

I didn't show too much shock when I saw the corpse, and my personality was unusually stable.

Vaguely, she felt that the other party was like a little adult.

But she didn't think much of it.

After all, no matter how you say it, you can't be a small adult, right?

It's not reasonable, it's not scientific.

…………

Although it was the first time to work together, the two had a tacit understanding.

Momiji is responsible for bandaging the back, while Xiao Ai is responsible for the arms.

As for the lower body, it still depends on Fujino himself.

While bandaging, Fujino silently opened his eagle eye and observed the movements of everyone near the room to prevent anyone from breaking into the room.

While observing, Fujino thought in his heart about the secret room just now, and the dried corpse in the secret room.

The cause of death of the dried corpse Fujino is uncertain for the time being, and it may have been burned to death, or it may have been beheaded to death.

The time of death, too, is too scorched to be judged.

However, it is certain that the dried corpse must have something to do with the secrets of Hexagon Village.

He didn't want to delve into it for a while.

After all, if the village is really involved, then judging from the secrets given by the system and hidden in [Hidden in Hexagonal Village], the people of this entire village are all murderers.

Now that they had stumbled upon the body, they must have aroused suspicion, and if they were to investigate the secret at this time, it would be very likely that the entire village would be hunted down.

He doesn't have anything, but Xiao Ai is different from Momiji.

On the premise of not ruling out that the other party has weapons such as guns, he can't say that he will protect the two of them 100%.

Unless it is the first to strike and turn this entire village into a human purgatory......

This is not the outcome he wants to see.

After thinking about it, since the other party has not made a move yet, there is a high probability that there should be no direct connection between them and the so-called secret, just observing in secret.

Or rather, they didn't take it to heart at all.

In this case, his first choice is to ensure the safety of Ooka Momiji and Ash Hara.

For other things, maybe it's not too late to go back and investigate again after leaving.

Anyway, the system doesn't give a limit of time.

…………

Soon, the time came to nine o'clock in the evening.

The pre-wedding dinner was held as scheduled.

Ooka Momiji changed into a delicate pink dress, the skirt of the dress exceeded the knee, and the chest was also well covered, and even vaguely looked much smaller, and it is not difficult to see from the design that this dress is used to wear it for high-end occasions.

Wearing it on this occasion has the feeling of Lu Bu riding a dog.

Xiao Ai put on the black Lolita, and she was still so cute.

As for Fujino, he is wearing a black suit with body armor inside and a windbreaker outside, which can be said to have folded all the vests that can save his life.

A few people met up with Oda and arrived at the banquet hall of the Clock Pavilion.

At this time, the banquet hall was already full of guests.

In addition to the owners of the six halls in the village, there are also many celebrities in the village.

The pre-wedding dinner officially began.

The door not far away was pushed open, and Tokita Wakaba walked out.

Tokita Wakaba was wearing a delicately made slim wedding dress, her delicate face was slightly hidden by a white veil on top of her short black hair, and she was holding a red bouquet in her hand, but in terms of demeanor, she looked a little cold.

Behind her, followed by a girl in a black evening dress.

The girl, Fujino, felt a little familiar......

If you look closely, it is the girl with two crows I met when I asked for directions before.

The next one to appear was the groom of this wedding, a man named Renjo Hisahiko.

Renjo Hisahiko wears a white hood, and the style of the hood is like an executioner in ancient times, only showing his eyes, which is unexpectedly in line with the weirdness of this village.

After the bride and groom enter, the banquet officially begins.

However, according to the strange custom of the village where the bride must go to church for one night when she gets married, Wakaba, after meeting everyone, left the banquet with the crow girl and went to the church in the middle of the village.

Before leaving, Wakaba glanced at Oda Kiri.

However, Oda Kiri showed a panicked look and was speechless.

"Mr. Tokita, congratulations!"

A man with a birthmark covering half of his face used a knife and fork to break down the steak on the plate, and smiled at Shitian Shisan, who was sitting on the side: "If you can become a family with the Liancheng family, the leading rich man in the county, the development of this village will depend on your family in the future!" ”

"Hey, hey, where!"

Tokita Thirteen put a piece of steak into his mouth and smiled wryly.

"Is this what is called a political marriage?"

Ashbara sat on Fujino's left, picked up a drink, and silently glanced at everyone present.

She can understand that Wakaba's wedding is the so-called marriage.

Although the status of the two parties is not too high, it is just a financial exchange, but the so-called marriage is like this.

It's nothing more than money, power, and so on.

What a terrible form of capitalism.

"It's fine if it's a political marriage, but a marriage of this magnitude is just a small fight......

Ooka Momiji glanced deeply at Gray Hara, "To be honest, I really feel worthless for Wakaba, but there is no way to do it." ”

"yes, it's someone's family affair after all."

Fujino chimed in.

"You guys are still underage, aren't you? It's best not to drink champagne. ”

Suddenly, a voice interrupted Fujino's thoughts.

Fujino turned his head to look and saw a middle-aged mixed-race man with blonde hair appearing behind him in a black evening suit.

"You must be from outside the village, right?"

Wind Festival Jun also introduced himself with a smile: "My surname is Wind Festival, and I am the representative of the villagers of this village. ”

"Mr. Kazematsu?"

Fujino thought for a moment, "Could it be the Wind Festival of the Wind Direction Pavilion?" ”

"yes."

Wind Sai Jun also nodded: "I am the owner of the Wind Direction Pavilion. ”

"I see......"

Fujino chuckled: "My name is Fujino, and this time I came to the wedding with a friend, and this is my sister Gray Hara." ”

Gray Yuan nodded skillfully.

Ooka Momiji, who was not introduced, glanced at Fujino resentfully, and then introduced himself with a chuckle: "My surname is Ooka, Wakaba's classmate, and he is his fiancΓ©e." ”

"FiancΓ©e?!"

Wind Matsuri was surprised, "But then again, how do you feel like you've heard of the surname Ooka somewhere?" ”

"Heard of it?"

Fujino was a little puzzled.

Although the Ooka family does look powerful, and may even be powerful, it is not so famous that it will spread to such a remote ravine......

"Ahβ€”β€”!h

A scream suddenly interrupted Fujino's thoughts.

When they looked back, they saw an old-looking woman in a dress similar to that of the Middle Ages, suddenly shouting, "Lost ...... There was a fire! ”

"Mrs. Kusanagi?"

On the side, a noble lady wearing a corset black evening dress with a bewitching temperament looked at the old woman and looked a little puzzled.

"The church is on fire!"

With the old woman's shout, the atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became cold, and they couldn't help but sink their faces.

Fujino's eyes narrowed slightly, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Church on fire......

He remembered that the dried corpse had been burned to death.

What is the connection between the two?

Seeing this, the two maids of the Clock Pavilion on the side hurriedly helped the old woman out of the banquet.

"What's wrong with her?"

Fujino asked Junya Kazumi to the side.

"She's the owner of the Ivy Pavilion, and her name is Miko Kusanagi."

"This has been the case since her son died in a car accident five years ago," explained Kazatsu Junya......

Before he could finish speaking, the man with a birthmark on his face suddenly smacked his tongue and said unhappily: "Why hasn't this crazy old woman been sent to a mental hospital yet?" ”

"Mr. Isshiki! Today's wedding feast, you're going too far, aren't you? ”

The noble lady complained, "And Mr. Liancheng from afar is also here, it's really rude!" ”

"That lady is the owner of the Tower Pavilion, and the one with the birthmark on his face is the owner of the Colored Glass Pavilion, Isshiki Yino."

Kazatsu Jun also introduced Fujino, and then pointed to the man in a black suit and wearing round-rimmed glasses who was silently cooking not far away, and continued, "And the one who is eating is the owner of the Armor Pavilion, Dou Reizo. ”

"The owner of the Kai no Pavilion......"

Fujino thought for a moment, "Then the bridesmaid just now shouldn't be his family, right?" ”

"That's right."

Feng Sai Jun also nodded: "He's the father of the bridesmaid Dou Kiriko, but then again, how did you see it......"

"I met Miss Kiriko at the door of the Armor Pavilion when I came."

Fujino replied, "At that time, I asked her to help show the way." ”

"I see......"

Wind Sacrifice Wind Sacrifice Chun also nodded: "But it's really strange, Kiriko is notoriously not like to talk to outsiders." ”

"It's true that she didn't talk to us at the time, she just showed us the way."

Fujino nodded.

Although it points to loneliness.

The dinner party is probably a process, and after the wine and food are full, they will go separately to chat.

Everyone else in this village is the same, weird.

The only person who can talk to Fujino and his party is the Uncle Wind Festival of the Wind Direction Pavilion, who seems to be a little enthusiastic to outsiders.

After the dinner, Uncle Kaze took Fujino and his party to the balcony of the banquet hall.

"Is Wakaba in that church?"

Ooka Momiji's gaze looked at the church not far away, and he asked suspiciously.

"That's right, it's the church, and the church was built a long time ago."

Uncle Wind Priest nodded: "The people who built this church are missionaries who came here from abroad to look for the [Apple of Eden], and speaking of which, it has a history of a hundred years now. ”

"The golden apple of Eden?"

Gray Yuan frowned suspiciously, "The one in the Bible?" ”

"That's right, it's the forbidden fruit that Adam and Eve stole from the Old Testament of the Bible."

"Actually, no one knows what the [Golden Apple of Eden] they are looking for is still unknown. ”

"Maybe it's the golden apple."

Fujino said meaningfully.

Speaking of the golden apple in the Garden of Eden, he thought of the golden apple in Assassin's Creed.

It's a relic of an old civilization that can control people's minds.

Of course, that is, to think about it, that kind of thing, even if it is the world of Kexue, cannot exist.

Retracting his thoughts, Fujino paused, and then continued to ask towards the wind festival Junya, "By the way, what is the fire that the owner of the Ivy Pavilion mentioned just now?" ”

"That was twenty-seven years ago."

Uncle Wind Priest hesitated for a moment when he heard this, paused, and continued: "The priest and his wife who lived there at that time, and their seven children were burned to death by the fire, and the newlywed wife was going to stay there for one night, and it was also because of this, on the eve of the wedding, the bride was to wear a wedding dress and repent of her previous sins......"

Gray Yuan couldn't help but complain: "It's really a strange traditional ......"

"It's weird indeed."

Fujino nodded.

Fire, dried corpses.

I feel like my thoughts are getting clearer.

Could the dried corpse in the secret room be the corpse of the priest's family in that fire?

But before he could finish speaking, a rapid 'bell' sound suddenly interrupted his thoughts again.

"Huh?"

Uncle Feng Sai was obviously stunned: "Why is it ringing at this time?" ”

"Is this your custom too?"

Ooka Momiji couldn't help but ask curiously.

"No, it's not."

Uncle Kazumatsu shook his head: "The church bell is only ringed when the dead are ......"

"Dead people?"

Fujino's right eyelid jumped slightly, and then, as he expected, a system prompt echoed in his ears: "A new detective career mission has been detected, please pay attention to check!" ”

Fujino: "......"

Sure enough, there were dead people.
