Chapter 1624 Hint (I am so cold that I am curled up into a ball)
I have to say that the saying "three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang" does make sense.

After Chitanda's words, Duanmu Huai remembered that ghost stories were indeed the favorite of adolescent children. Most of the box office data of the horror movies he starred in were contributed by these people.

Moreover, Japanese ghost stories are very different from those in other places.

That is, it will tell you the solution.

Chinese ghost stories usually end with going to a temple or seeking help from a Taoist priest to resolve the problem.

Most ghost stories in the West are left to exorcists or priests.

Only Japanese ghost stories are different, they are rooted in life and their solutions are also lifelike.

For example, the famous story of the slit-mouthed woman. Everyone knows that a woman wearing a mask will ask you "Am I beautiful?" If you answer yes, she will tear your mouth open and say "Then become like me." If you answer "Not beautiful," she will kill you.

But in fact, this rumor comes with a solution, which is to spray medical alcohol on the slit-mouthed woman, and she will run away.

The reason is that the reason why the slit-mouthed woman became the slit-mouthed woman was because of a failed cosmetic surgery, so when she smells the scent of medical alcohol she will remember what happened and get scared away.

There are many similar ghost stories in Japan, and they basically follow this pattern: they will first tell you a ghost story, then tell you how to expel it if you encounter one, and then tell you why you should do so.

If this is a collection of group consciousness, then... things get interesting.

Assuming that these strange stories are symptoms of puberty syndrome, it means that the slit-mouthed woman acts strictly in accordance with the image that humans imagine her to be. So as long as everyone believes that the slit-mouthed woman will be scared away by medical alcohol, and this method does make sense, then the slit-mouthed woman will indeed be scared away by medical alcohol.

Perfectly closed loop belongs to yes.

But what Duanmu Huai is looking for is not this kind of simple weird story.

Since it is suspected that this is related to the erosion of the warp, the easiest way is to find out if there are any legends related to the warp.

That's easy.

Duanmu Huai can immediately lock onto the target as long as he enters "different space, strange stories" in the search bar.

In fact, thanks to the Internet and big data, it is indeed very easy to find.

"Kisaragi Station."

Looking at the first search result on his phone, Duanmu Huai tapped the table.

This is indeed a well-known online legend. Even Duanmu Huai, who rarely looks up this kind of information online, has heard of it, because a director tried to make it into a movie and invited Duanmu Huai to perform. So Duanmu Huai has indeed read some records about Ruyue Station.

The rumor about Ruzuki Station first appeared on an online forum. At that time, someone posted a message online, saying that the train he was riding had not stopped and asked netizens for help. Later, many enthusiastic netizens helped. In this way, through the questions and answers, netizens learned that the train that person was riding arrived at a place called "Ruzuki Station", but there was no such station at all. Later, the poster disappeared completely.

Since there were many netizens involved at the time, this was basically a supernatural event witnessed by the public, so the rumor about Ruzuki Station spread quickly.

Of course, it is easy to explain it with realistic theories. That website does not require registration, and all messages are sent anonymously. Maybe someone wants to play a trick on everyone, so he made up such a story. After all, there are many people who have fun online, and there are also many people who write short essays.

But obviously, people prefer to seek excitement.

Compared to "someone made up a story to play a trick on people", the rumor that "there really is a train to another world" is obviously more interesting.

Of course, there are many different opinions on how to get to Rugetsu Station. Some say that there will be a train at the last train time with an unspecified schedule, while others say that as long as you sit on the train, you will automatically go to another world after midnight.

However, Duanmu Huai didn't need to look at them one by one, he just needed to find the one with the highest number of views.

Because if Duanmu Huai's guess is correct, then as long as everyone thinks that they can get on the train to Ruyue Station in this way, then they will definitely be able to get on it.

Unfortunately, there is no other way at the moment, so Duanmu Huai plans to take a few days to investigate and make some preparations after finishing filming the movie during the summer vacation, and the rest will be dealt with later.

As for now…………

"It would be great if the world were destroyed..."

Sitting at the dining table, Yanami was muttering to himself in a doomsday tone, his eyes were lifeless, and he looked like he was being drained.

Duanmu Huai was no longer surprised by this.

"Out of sight, out of mind. Didn't you tell me before that Kusuke is your good friend, and Karen is also your good friend, and their happiness is your happiness?"

"Yeah...why is this happening?"

Yanami looked out the window silently.

"For the first time, I have someone I like and someone I can be friends with for life. These two happy things overlap, and these two joys bring me even more joy. What I got should have been a dream-like happiness... But why did it turn out like this..."

Are you sure you and Hua Lian can be friends forever? I don't think it would be strange if you stabbed her to death on the rooftop one day.

By the way, today is Sunday, and the reason why Duanmu Huai and Yanai Jian came out together is... the research project of the literature club.

Well, after all, it is the Department of Classical Literature, so naturally we have to do research related to literature. Chitanda is a rich lady, and the access control seems to be very strict, so Duanmu Huai and Yanami have to do it.

By the way, if it was just a study of ancient Chinese literature, Duanmu Huai would not be interested, and Banaijian would be even less interested. However, Duanmu Huai knew very well how to order others around, so he decisively changed the research topic.

That is to study the delicacies in ancient literary works!

When Yanami heard this topic, his eyes lit up immediately, so they agreed to go out together on Sunday and try all the delicious food recorded in the book!
In this regard, Banaijian was as proactive as Duanmu Huai, and even offered to let her complete the task of collecting information about ancient food books.

Well, Duanmu Huai naturally had no objection to this, or rather, he had always wanted to do so.

But now seeing Yana's dying appearance, he has completely lost the excitement he had that day, and it's as if he is on his deathbed.

The reason is…………

"Did anything happen at the previous class reunion?"

"Um…………"

Yanaijian told Duanmu Huai that the junior high school was going to hold a class reunion, and Kusuke would take Karen to the reunion. Although Karen was not a junior high school classmate, because of the tradition of "introducing lovers at the class reunion", Kusuke would also take Karen with him.

Well... according to Yanami, she and Kusuke have been together since elementary school, and it was probably the same in junior high school. Everyone thinks they are lovers.

Now Kusuke is bringing Karen to everyone, which means that all of Yanami's junior high school classmates know that she was dumped. At that time, Yanami even read some chicken soup for the soul to soothe her hurt heart, but now it seems that chicken soup for the soul is really just a scam.

"So, did they nag me at homecoming?"

“Hahaha… I overcame that a month ago, you know? Now even if they say “I love you” to me, my heart of steel won’t be moved.”

They actually said such things in front of you... It seems that Yanami's mental toughness is far beyond imagination.

However, at this moment, Yanami's eyes looked even more confused.

"But... like picking up the trash right after a meal, or helping to carry luggage without leaving a trace, communicating with each other instantly when their eyes meet, sharing a points card, using the same ringtone, wearing the same color of things, and going home together without saying anything when the meal is over..."

Yanami picked up the water cup on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and then slammed it heavily on the table.

"That's exactly what they are! They are just like a newlywed couple who have gotten through the adjustment period and are inseparable! How can they be so skilled? How many times have they done this? How far do they have to leave me behind?"

"………………………"

At this point, Yanajian laid his head on the table.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"Obviously...Obviously it was me first, whether it was about being together or falling in love with that guy..."

"Uh... Anyway, let's eat something first. It's hard to talk when you're hungry."

Duanmu Huai decided to just stuff her mouth with food.

"Excuse me, give me an ice cream soda."

"You want this today?"

Duanmu Huai was somewhat surprised to see that Yanaijian only ordered one portion, while Yanaijian stared at him silently.

"Student Duanmu, did you know that vegetarian noodles are actually carbohydrates? I was deceived because they are cold and slippery. They look very thin and I think they won't taste good. But I ended up getting fat after eating them. I felt like I was at a disadvantage..."

“………………I haven’t finished eating yet.”

"Um…………………"

Duanmu Huai certainly knew what Yanami was talking about. Last month, when Yanami's father paid his salary, he received some somen worth 300,000 yen as his salary, so Yanami brought them to the classical music department to share.

But... there were several boxes of plain noodles, and Duanmu Huai lost his appetite, and Chitanda couldn't stand it even more.

The reason why Yanami could hold on until now was entirely because of her good appetite. But now it seems that even a good appetite has its limits.

By the way, the company where Yanami's father works is about to go bankrupt.

At this time, the waiter also brought drinks and desserts. Yanami also raised his mobile phone and took pictures of the ice cream soda in front of him.

"Is this interesting?"

Looking at Yanaijian's actions, Duanmu Huai was completely unable to understand it. Many girls like to take pictures of food while eating and post them online, but Duanmu Huai doesn't understand the meaning of this at all.

"This is the trend. Duanmu is just like that. He doesn't care about fashion at all. This is not acceptable..."

Yanai answered while taking pictures, then she stared at her phone and suddenly stopped.

"Student Duanmu! Look at this!"

Then, Yanaijian hurriedly turned the phone over and opened it to Duanmu Huai.

"Ok?"

Duanmu Huai looked at the photo of ice cream soda taken above.

"Any questions?"

"Look here, top left, here here."

Banai stretched out his hand and pointed, and Duanmu Huai then noticed that it seemed that his hand was captured in the photo.

"What's wrong? If you don't want me to be photographed, I'll just sit over there."

“That’s not the question.”

Yanami slammed the table hard.

"Look, taking a photo like this gives people the feeling that there is someone opposite me. This is a suggestive photo, a suggestive photo!"

"Oh...you mean this..."

After hearing this, Duanmu Huai finally understood what Banaijian meant.

In fact, this kind of photos occasionally appear in the entertainment industry, mainly for inflammatory purposes. For example, if an artist's home photos show the opposite sex's belongings, or if they accidentally take photos of the opposite sex, they will be inflammatory because of this. Although those artists will say that those are their brothers and sisters' belongings...

"But Yana-chan, you're not an entertainer."

"You don't understand this, classmate Duanmu. Actually, after this class reunion, many men wanted to contact me. Maybe they thought I was dumped and was very vulnerable during this period, so they wanted to take advantage of me!"

"Um……………"

We can’t say it’s not the case at all, or that it is the case at all.

“So, I came up with a good idea!”

Having said that, Yanai changed from her previous dejection and became excited. She stared at Duanmu Huai with wide eyes.

"Student Duanmu, do you want to pretend to be my boyfriend?"
