Chapter 1361 Asking for help (It’s so hot that I’m dried up)

"and many more!"

A dark shadow emerged from the side and pounced on Duanmu Huai.

"Ok?"

Hearing the voice, Duanmu Huai turned his head and saw the latter bumping into him and then sitting on the ground.

"Ugh..."

Duanmu Huai looked carefully and saw that the person sitting on the ground was a young girl, probably a junior high school student? She was wearing a nightgown and holding a furry bear doll in her arms. At this moment, her face was pale and she looked at Duanmu Huai with horror.

"who are you?"

“I, I am…………”

Facing Duanmu Huai, the girl was obviously very frightened. At this moment, she was trembling constantly like a cat that was cornered by a mouse, and she couldn't even speak clearly.

Duanmu Huai frowned at the girl in front of him and was about to say something. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed the girl and pulled her towards him! At the same time, a black shadow fell from the sky, and its sharp claws almost brushed past the girl!

“Squeak—————!!”

The black shadow that missed the attack let out a piercing scream, then it flapped its wings vigorously and pounced towards Duanmu Huai. It was a flesh-and-blood monster bird with three heads, a bald body, and no feathers at all!

"Humph!"

  Looking at the broken bird rushing towards him, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, then he stretched out his hand, directly blocked the opponent's attack, grabbed the strange bird, and then squeezed it hard!

"Pfft!"

The next moment, the strange bird turned into melted black water, splashing everywhere, and then disappeared into the air, leaving behind only a nauseating, unbearable smell.

"Uuuuuuu——"

The little panda lying on Duanmu Huai's shoulder also let out an unhappy growl and covered its nose with its two little paws.

Apparently, it couldn't stand the smell either.

"Humph."

  Duanmu Huai wiped his hands with a tissue, looking unhappy. It seems that he really needs to get a handy weapon in this world. Otherwise, it’s not that he can’t beat them with just his fists, but these things are too dirty! It’s no different from digging out feces with his hands!

Oh, that's disgusting.

Although the liquid that exploded and flew out of the strange bird's body disappeared without a trace after its death, Duanmu Huai still felt very disgusted.

Oh, by the way, that girl just now...

Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked at the other person, then was stunned.

In his hands, the girl had closed her eyes and fainted. Not far behind her head, a shallow dent appeared next to his car door.

"…………………"

It couldn't be that when I pulled her over, her head hit the car door and she passed out.

Forget it, just take it back first.

"Ah, you're back, brother... Ugh, why does it stink so bad? What's that smell?"

As soon as he walked into the house, Sha Jiuye came forward and quickly covered his nose to avoid him. The red panda also quickly jumped off Duanmu Huai's body and quickly ran to his own nest.

"I encountered a troublesome thing..."

Duanmu Huai's face was extremely dark at this moment, but he still remembered that he was holding a person in his hand and threw the other person in.

“Hey? Who is this……?”

Seeing the girl who was brought in like a cat by Duanmu Huai, with her eyes closed and unconscious, Sha Jiuye was also stunned and looked at Duanmu Huai in surprise, while Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes.

"I don't know either. I'm in this state because of her! I'm going to take a shower and change clothes. You keep an eye on her and don't let her run away! I also want to know what's going on!"

After all, he was attacked for no reason and was made to stink. Duanmu Huai was furious. This was just like someone dumping a toilet on his face when he walked out the door. If he didn't get this matter sorted out, it would not be over!

After taking a shower and changing clothes, the foul smell emanating from Duanmu Huai finally dissipated. When he came to the living room, the smell of air freshener remained everywhere. The girl was sitting on the sofa, holding the teddy bear in her hands, staring at Duanmu Huai unhappily.

"You, who are you?"

"That's my problem, girl."

Duanmu Huai sat opposite the girl, stared at her and asked.

"Who are you? What trouble have you gotten yourself into?"

"………………………"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, the girl was silent for a moment.

"It was Tokisaka Satoshi who asked me to come find you."

"Tokisaka Satoshi?"

Hearing this name, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment.

"The detective? What did he mean by asking you to come to me? Why didn't he come himself?"

"………………Tokisaka Satoshi died. He committed suicide."

"oh……………"

To be honest, this result was not unexpected to Duanmu Huai. He even changed his position on the sofa leisurely.

"Come on, tell me, what's going on?"

Soon, Duanmu Huai understood the cause and effect of the incident through the girl's narration. As Duanmu Huai guessed, although he had warned him, Tokisaka Chi did not give up the investigation. It was just that he was also alert because of Duanmu Huai's reminder, so he found the girl.

Oh, by the way, although this girl looks young, she is quite famous. Her name is Yuko Shionji, and she calls herself a NEET detective. Of course, to Duanmu Huai, this is just a hacker. In short, Tokisaka Satoshi was attracted by Yuko Shionji's ability to act on the Internet, so he found her and worked with her to investigate the case.

They did the same thing as Duanmu Huai, continuing to screen the addresses in the notebook. However, these two people were luckier than Duanmu Huai, or it could be said that Ziyuan Temple Yuko's ability in the field of networking was much higher than Duanmu Huai's, and they actually found a clue.

That is the "House of Death".

This is a large house in the suburbs. It used to be the house of a certain family. But later, no one knows what happened. All the members of this family died, and they all committed suicide. Therefore, this house also has the nickname of the House of Death, and even became a suicide spot for many people for a period of time.

The reason why Toshio Tokisaka set his eyes on this place was that he discovered that the mysterious cult organization was secretly organizing a mass suicide in the House of Death!

The Japanese are quite good at making things happen when it comes to death, and mass suicide is one of them. The reason for mass suicide is actually very simple. A person wants to die, but he is afraid of death. So what should he do? So they thought of mass suicide. If everyone dies together, then they won't be afraid, right?

As a result, the concept of collective suicide became popular in Japan.

  Of course, to be honest, Duanmu Huai looked down on those who committed suicide. In his opinion, most people who committed suicide were cowards, especially those young people. Rather than dying alone, you might as well die with the people who bullied you. You are not afraid of death, so how can you be afraid of killing people?

As a result, when you are bullied, you don’t even dare to fight back and can only commit suicide?

You really deserve to be bullied to death...

  And mass suicide is even more cowardly. You don’t even dare to do it yourself and just follow the crowd?

In any case, Duanmu Huai couldn't understand this idea.

Forget it, I’ve strayed off topic, let me get back to it.

In short, after Tokisaka Satoshi discovered this, he wanted to go there to investigate. In Tokisaka Satoshi's opinion, since the cult carefully planned to hold a mass suicide there, there must be some plan!

Of course, he was not stupid. Before taking action, Toshioka Satoshi left a message for Ariko Shionji, asking her to go to the bar to find Duanmu Huai if anything happened to him.

And then...Tokisaka Satoshi died.

That's right, after Tokisaka Satoshi went to the haunted house, Shionji Yuko lost contact with Tokisaka Satoshi, and Shionji Yuko was very nervous at the time. However, the next day, she received news about Tokisaka Satoshi—the latter jumped off the building and died!

"Jump off the building? Are you sure?"

"of course."

Shionji Yuko nodded with a pale face, then took out a USB flash drive.

"This is the record of my investigation. You can read it for yourself."

Duanmu Huai took the USB drive and plugged it into the computer, then opened a video surveillance file. From the video file, it can be seen that this should be an apartment building.

"This is the apartment building where Mr. Toshisaka lives."

"oh……………"

While Shionji Yuko was introducing them, Duanmu Huai also saw on the screen that Toshizaka Tomo drove to the gate of the apartment and stopped. However, Toshizaka Tomo looked gloomy at the moment, and he looked very mentally ill. He dragged his heavy steps out of the car, smoked a cigarette and walked into the apartment building.

Then switching to the surveillance video, we can see that Toshisaka took the elevator directly to the top floor, and then he walked up the stairs to the rooftop. The door to the rooftop was locked, but Toshisaka didn't care at all. He reached out and broke the glass directly, then opened the door and walked onto the rooftop.

Of course, this kind of rooftop has a protective wire mesh, but Toshisaka Tomo didn't care. He used his hands and feet to climb over the wire mesh and sat on the edge of the top floor of the apartment building, smoking one cigarette after another. He smoked for three hours until it was dark, and Toshisaka Tomo seemed to have made up his mind, stood up and jumped off the rooftop.

The surveillance below also recorded the scene of Toshio Tokisaka falling to the ground.

"boom!"

Seeing this, Sha Jiuye trembled with fear and turned his head away, not daring to look again.

"That's it?"

Duanmu Huai frowned as he read it, then looked at Ziyuansi Youzi, who nodded.

"Yes, the police investigated this and concluded that it was suicide. Because a large amount of alcohol was found in Mr. Toshio Tomo's body, which means he drank a lot of alcohol, and the surveillance also shows that he was not coerced, nor was it an accident, but he really chose to commit suicide..."

However, the matter certainly did not end there, although it seemed to be just an ordinary suicide case. But Shionji Yuko remembered that Tokisaka Satoshi told her personally before he left that if anything happened to him, there would definitely be something wrong!

And this is indeed the case. After Tokisaka Satoshi came back from the house of death, he did not contact himself, but chose to commit suicide!

There must be something wrong with this!

Yuko Shionji is also a detective, so she certainly won't let it go, so she sneaked into the forum again, trying to find clues about the cult. This time she chose to hack into the other party's database directly, and what happened next made Yuko Shionji almost unable to believe her eyes.

  After hacking into the cult server, the first thing that appeared in front of Shionji Yuko was a picture that looked like a magic circle. Shionji Yuko didn't care about it, after all, many mysterious websites like to use this kind of supernatural background. However, what happened next was beyond Shionji Yuko's expectations. After the picture appeared, Shionji Yuko's computer screen began to flicker, and then a terrifying strange bird actually crawled out of Shionji Yuko's computer screen!

This frightened Yuko Shionji, and she didn't know what happened, but at this moment, she remembered what Tokisaka Tomo said before, so she turned around and ran out of the room and came to the bar without waiting for the monster to completely crawl out of the computer screen. She happened to see Duanmu Huai walking out, and Tokisaka Tomo naturally told Yuko Shionji about Duanmu Huai's characteristics, so Yuko Shionji hurriedly followed him.

Then the scene at the beginning appeared.

Good guy.

After listening to Ziyuan Temple Youzi's story, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes helplessly.

The detective is really a man who will never die if he doesn't do anything stupid.

  Curiosity kills the cat, you know?

"So, why did you come here to see me......"

"I, I want to know the truth."

Staring at Duanmu Huai, although Ziyuansi Youzi was still a little scared, she still mustered up the courage and spoke.

"The essence of a detective is to be the spokesperson for the dead, to dig out the lost language from the grave, to hurt the living in order to protect the reputation of the dead, and to insult the dead in order to comfort the living. This is originally an unpopular and misunderstood job, so I will never stop here!"

"…………………"

Faced with Ziyuan Temple Youzi's confident answer, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Are you a detective?

You mean the forensic doctor?
