Chapter 1425: Going straight to Huanglong (It’s almost time to change to a thick quilt)

The process described by Tezuka Renichi is slightly different from that of a chuunibyou, but not much different.

At that time, the group sent someone to collect the debt, and the other party lived in "Hell's 1-chome". Since usury is legal in Japan, debt collection is naturally legal. The unlucky debtor tried to evade them again and again, but was eventually caught by the younger brothers in the group, who beat him up and took away the money.

However, unfortunately, this scene was discovered by a patrolling police officer, and the young man fled in a hurry.

The next day, news came that the younger brother had killed someone, and the police launched a manhunt for him.

The Japanese mafia is not as arrogant as the Sicilian mafia, nor as powerful as the Godfather of the Brook District. They are more like "police-civilian cooperation", which means I won't cause you any trouble, and you won't cause me any trouble. This way, it's good for both you and me. But if you cause me any trouble, don't blame me for being rude.

Take debts for example. The underworld can go and collect debts, even violently. They can even arrest people and throw them onto fishing boats to go fishing for tuna in the open sea. They can also force people to make pornographic films with contracts. As long as your pornographic films are censored, the police will not care.

It is not possible without mosaic because it is against the law.

But you can't kill anyone.

If someone dies, the police have to intervene even if they don't want to.

Similarly, the gangs also have to give an explanation to the police.

So when something like this happened, the first reaction of the big brothers was to let the other party surrender voluntarily. After all, Japan does not have the death penalty. He just accidentally killed someone during the debt collection process. How many years can he be sentenced? Besides, he is just a little brother. It doesn't matter if he is imprisoned.

The younger brother refused to admit it, saying that he only beat the man up and didn't kill him. But no one took his words seriously, as people like him would say anything to get away with it. So they locked the younger brother up and planned to send him to the police station the next day.

  However, that night, an accident happened—the little brother died!

What's even more surprising is that he didn't commit suicide, but was killed! And the person who killed him was actually the creditor he accidentally killed! ?

What? Do you feel confused?

Tezuka Lianyi thought the same thing at first, but the problem was that the situation was completely captured by the surveillance camera. In the surveillance camera, it can be seen that the younger brother was originally sleeping in a closed room. Suddenly, he showed great pain, as if he was having a nightmare. Then, a figure gradually emerged from him and turned into a man.

The man reached out and strangled the younger brother's neck tightly. By the time the gangsters guarding outside noticed something was wrong and rushed in, the man had already strangled the younger brother to death and disappeared completely.

  The gangster who was guarding the gang hurriedly called his boss, but when the boss arrived, the gangster's body was missing!

At that time, everyone thought this matter was very strange and couldn't figure out what was going on. It was at that time that Tezuka Lianyi learned about this matter and wanted to use it to build a relationship with Duanmu Huai, so he called him for the first time and wanted to entrust Duanmu Huai to investigate, but was rejected by Duanmu Huai.

If that was all, the impact of this incident would not be that great, as it was just the death of a little brother. However, not long after this, things got worse.

  This time, the young assistant in the group died!

And the one who killed him was that dead younger brother!

The position of the Wakato is not low. In the gang, the highest position in a group is the leader, that is, the big brother. Then there is the Wakato, whose position is second only to the leader. At the same time, if the leader dies or is arrested, he will inherit the position of the leader.

The position of Wakatoshi Assistant is actually equivalent to the third in command. Although they are assistants in name, their relationship with Wakatoshi is a bit like the relationship between the crown prince and other princes. Although Wakatoshi is the first choice to succeed the team leader, if something happens to Wakatoshi, then these Wakatoshi Assistants are also qualified to succeed the position of team leader.

Therefore, the position of the assistant in the gang is not low.

  And the time when he was killed was also full of drama. At that time, the young assistant was about to go home after having fun in the nightclub. Just as he walked out of the nightclub and was about to get in the car, the younger brother suddenly came from the end of the dark street and attacked the young assistant. Although the young assistant was protected by someone, the younger brother was like a demon, invulnerable to swords and guns. He even used a knife to cut open the young assistant's stomach in front of others!

Then the younger brother disappeared, and the body of the young assistant disappeared without a trace after that.

At this point, everyone was in a state of panic. The gangsters were just brave, but they were not really fearless. This weird thing had begun to make the atmosphere in the group uneasy. So the leader of that group asked for help from the leader of the Yingyue group, who had a good relationship with him.

The leader of the Yingyue Group didn't know what to do, but he owed the other party a life, so he agreed and then handed the matter over to Tezuka Renichi.

Tezuka Renichi also has some means. He learned from the police that similar cases have occurred, so he followed the clues to find the middle school boy and asked him what had happened.

but……………

"Haunted... Honestly, I just can't imagine it."

Looking at the supernatural magazine in Duanmu Huai's hand, Tezuka Renichi was speechless.

"However, since Mr. Duanmu is going to investigate this matter, then... I can let it go. After all, strictly speaking, this is not what I should do."

Indeed, it would be too difficult for a mafia detective to investigate supernatural events.

After learning that Duanmu Huai was in charge of investigating the matter, Tezuka Lianyi decisively chose to stop. On the one hand, he was a little uneasy about this kind of weird thing, and on the other hand, Tezuka Lianyi also knew how powerful Duanmu Huai was. Although this was the order of the team leader, as long as he went back and reported to the team leader that Duanmu Huai was involved in the matter, then it should be enough.

"I'll state in advance that I may not be able to come up with a result."

"It's okay. I believe in your ability, Mr. Duanmu. The team leader also praises you very much. After all, it was because of Mr. Duanmu's enthusiasm that the team leader was able to hear his daughter's last words before her death."

"It's just a casual thing. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

"Of course. By the way, if you need any help, you can always call me. Our Eagle Moon Group is quite powerful here."

"decide as things go."

Duanmu Huai was not willing to call a group of gangsters to help him. What if he didn't clean it up enough? So he just responded with a few words and then went back to the office. As for the boy, he left with Tezuka Renichi. After all, the man who killed him had been killed by Mianme Satori, so he shouldn't come out again.

Hope not.

Of course, to be on the safe side, Duanmu Huai gave him a talisman to ensure his safety, but unlike the one given by Yotsuya Miko, this one was a one-time use.

After all, a man should have some backbone. He is not a girl like Yotsuya Miko. It is enough for me to give you a chance to save your life.

No more will be given.

After returning to the office, everyone gathered around curiously and looked at the supernatural magazine in Duanmu Huai's hand.

“Ghost…”

Staring at the magazine, Sakuya's expression was somewhat complicated.

“Are there really ghosts in this world?”

"You've been through a lot, haven't you?"

After all, since Duanmu Huai came to this world, Sha Jiuye has been the one who has encountered the most events with him.

"But, those are monsters, not ghosts, right?"

I have to say that Sha Jiuye's answer is also reasonable. Indeed, most of the existences in Cthulhu Mythos can be classified as biological.

The only difference is whether they are "alien creatures" or "creatures from another space".

Duanmu Huai had never seen things like evil spirits, let alone in this world, even in Mary's world.

"Come to think of it, everyone in school likes this kind of game, like dog and fox and the like..."

Mianme Sanatori next to him also spoke out of curiosity.

"There are actually people playing this game. I've only seen it in movies. Isn't playing this kind of game usually a prelude to seeking death?"

Duanmu Huai sighed casually, then opened the supernatural magazine titled "Seven Incredible Special Issues of XX City".

Generally speaking, these seven incredible rumors are more common in schools, and of course, the themes are also very consistent.

The Hanako in the toilet, the mannequin that runs away on its own at night, and the sound of the piano in the empty music room are the seven incredible fixed items on campus.

For example, the legend of Hanako is that if you go to the toilets on the third floor of the school, you should knock on the door of each toilet three times, and at the same time ask, "Is Hanako here?" When you knock on the third toilet, a voice from the toilet will say, "I'm here." Then the toilet door will open, and Hanako will appear, drag the other person into the toilet, and then disappear.

  Of course, any normal person would know that this rumor is illogical. If everyone who knocked on the toilet was taken away by Hanako, then who left this story behind?

In fact, many ghost stories are like this. You say that the person dies in the end, so how did this ghost story come about? Did the person become a ghost after he died and tell you the story?

Isn't this nonsense?

"Brother, are we going to investigate these seven incredible events next?"

"I don't have the time."

However, Duanmu Huai's answer was beyond Sha Jiuye's imagination.

"I'm looking for an address."

"address?"

"Yes, there is definitely something wrong with this magazine. It should have the address and phone number of the editorial office and the printing factory. I will go there and see what kind of place is it that prints and publishes such a disgusting magazine!"

  That's right, Duanmu Huai is not that stupid to play a decryption game with the other party. He should go directly to the editorial department, catch the guy who made this magazine, and interrogate him directly, then he will know everything, right?

Oh, Duanmu Huai has a shadow, there is no need to torture him, just scan it!

"But there may not be anything wrong with this magazine."

Alice looked at the magazine in front of her curiously. Whether in terms of printing or texture, it felt no different from those third-rate tabloids.

"Whether there is a problem or not, let people see it and know."

Duanmu Huai had just finished speaking when the doorbell rang.

When he heard the doorbell, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.

"Okay, here comes the talent we need."
