Creation of Dongying Guitan

After a while, the mist gradually dispersed, and Karasawa Makoto realized that he was still in the previous room. With one step, the white fox turned into a paper fox and fell to the ground again.Juri Takanashi and Hayato Shintani looked at him with concern on their faces, while Maki Kamo was still sitting behind the wooden table, flipping through the blue paper book.

Gao Lishuli: "Tang Ze, just now you were walking around in the room and kept calling Gu Xing's name..."

"I saw Gu Xing." Tang Zezhenqin seemed to have not completely pulled out of the scene just now. "There is a thick fog everywhere. I chased him, but I couldn't catch up to him no matter what."

Takanashi looked at Kamo Maki: "Master, how do you explain this..."

Makoto Hemo: "The person in the mist just now originated from him and ended up with him. He was also in the previous life and he is also in this life. The disappearance of the cellar in your home is also inseparable from him. There is a saying that to untie the bell, you need the person who tied it. If Miss Ze wants to untie this knot, she still needs to find the answer from that person."

Takanashi: "May I ask Master to explain more clearly."

Kamo Maki picked up a paper fan from the table and shook it lightly.A boy outside the door came in and said to the three people: "My master is tired today, please invite the three guests back."

Shinya Zahito wanted to say something, but was held back by Takanashi.She bowed deeply to He Mao Zhenji, "I don't know about Master's ritual today..."

Kamo Maki pointed to the signed pictorial on the table.

Child: "The master said, use it as a reward."

After the three of them left, the little boy returned to the house several times, transformed himself into a five-tailed white fox, ran to He Mao Maki, lay down, and still uttered a human voice:

"You can also see that there is a very ominous aura hidden in that woman?"

"Well," Kamo Maki looked at the mysterious island's autograph album in his hand with satisfaction, "Yes, it's like an aura of destroying the world."

"Then you still..."

Makoto He Mao put down the picture book in his hand: "Buddhists say that one thought becomes a Buddha, and one thought becomes a demon. The Yin-Yang School believes that Yin-Yang is a coordinating force that ebbs and flows within things. It is not yet certain whether it is a Buddha or a demon."

After all, he picked up the picture album of Mysterious Island and happily put it in his collection cabinet.

……

During the day, a black car was parked downstairs in Gu Xing Detective Agency.

Tang Ze Makoto is fully armed and sitting in the back row of the vehicle.Takanishi Shuri was sitting beside him, and Shintani Saohito was driving.

She was waiting for Gu Xing to arrive.But because of her urgency, she arrived a little earlier than the scheduled time.Gu Xing hadn't arrived yet, so she simply stayed here for a while.

With complicated eyes, Karasawa Makoto looked at the second floor where the detective agency was located.It is said that at first, Gu's Detective Agency had a brand name, but later it was renamed for unknown reasons.

gone.From now on, only people introduced by the police can find it here.

"Next, I will broadcast a follow-up to the Mikasa Shangyuan incident..."

On the radio, the host began to broadcast the news that the stock price of the Mikasa consortium had suffered a severe setback due to the trial of Mikasa Shangyuan. Although the consortium immediately blamed Mikasa Zhouping for "suicide in fear of crime", the market confidence was still affected. For this reason, Sanli Beidou, head of the Sanli Consortium, resigned from his post as president and retreated behind the scenes...

In addition, the more sensational news in the near future is that the hell couples have started to appear frequently recently.This weird couple will start a live broadcast every Monday in Lili to try criminals who have escaped legal punishment for various reasons... At this stage, all the targets of the trial are murderers. I don’t know if it will expand in the future. scope.

The Lidu Police Headquarters tried very hard to terminate the live broadcast at the beginning, but all methods were exhausted to no avail.The minister summoned several investigators to hold a meeting overnight to study the matter. The widow said: "According to the feedback from the Holy Son, the hell couple has been included as a member of the weird alliance, and what they have shown so far are all law-abiding rules. I suggest that you report to the National Police Let's make a report to continue the observation."

There was really no other way... In the end, the content of the report was drafted by the widow who made the proposal.

As for the people of Lidu, people are quite excited about this massive and extremely bizarre live broadcast of the trial of evildoers, and it is completely inseparable from the topic when people meet.

Forums on the Internet are discussing it, and the Internet department of the police has set up thousands of keywords to search for it, and then delete related posts.But this kind of deletion seems to be deceptive, because the source of those posts-the weird trial of the hell couple arrives on time every week.

Officials in Lidu initially tried to interpret the trial as a national action, the main purpose of which was to establish judicial authority and demonstrate the country's steadfast attitude towards maintaining judicial fairness.

They even named this trial Operation [Hammer of Justice], grandly announcing that the ultimate goal of the operation is to strictly and quickly judge those who escaped the law.

But later, officials gradually discovered that this was completely unjustifiable - because someone had tried to turn off the power at home, but the trial was still broadcast live on TV.Then, someone discovered that every time the judge in charge of the trial looked like the face of the victim.But those victims were already dead!

As the trial continued, some terrible rumors spread in the city——

They said that the world is quietly mutating, and there are terrible monsters dormant around people, which have been devouring human life in ways and rules that people can't imagine, so there are more and more inexplicable missing people in this city.

What is even more frightening is that the country and the police have always been aware of this.They are powerless to fight against monsters, so they can only use indiscriminate means to erase the memory of those lucky people who escaped from monsters, so as to maintain the false prosperity and peace of this society.Anyone who wants to know more details and in-depth information can go to the dark web to find information. There are definitely a lot of them, and the number is too numerous to count.

"The police's methods of erasing memories failed

It works! "

Some people say so, so now more and more people have experienced that kind of horrible and strange events, and more and more people have escaped from the hands of monsters, and those secrets can no longer be called secrets.

"It's too sensational." Takanashi Shuri, who was on the side, also opened a post about man-eating monsters on his mobile phone. "It seems like they are everywhere around us..."

"The police amnesiac failed,"

Tang Zezhenqin said: "People will gradually adapt to this kind of life, and they will be panicked at the beginning, and completely numb in the end."

She still remembers the day a few months ago when she exchanged an autograph for an assistant in Lidu's grotesque investigation department to escape the fate of being wiped out by an amnestic device.

This also made her still remember the days when Detective Gu Xing was a bodyguard and lived under the same roof with her almost inseparable.

She looked up at the window of Gu's Detective Agency - to be honest, it is not known whether it is a blessing or a misfortune that she has not forgotten.

"He's here!" Shintani Zaohito pointed to the road not far away, where a man wearing a hooded sweatshirt and casual jeans was walking towards here slowly, "Is that Detective Gu Xing?"

Tang Ze Makoto: "Yes, he likes to put his hands in his pockets and hide his head in the hood of the sweater."

……

Gu's Detective Agency.

Karasawa Makoto sat on the sofa next to the coffee table, looking at the furnishings in the office——

A long row of glass, sunlight pouring in, the whole room is unbelievably bright.At least, this is enough to prove that the owner of the house likes sunshine... probably not a person with a dark heart.

Next to the table are desks, chairs, and computers, clean and simple.Even the wastebasket next to it was empty.

There is a row of bookshelves on the west wall, and the bookshelves are full of all kinds of books. She walked around the bookshelves when she first came in, and most of the books have been turned over, which proves that the bookshelves are definitely not decorations.

To the east is a filing cabinet. Tang Zezhenqin is very curious about the contents inside, but she also understands that the detective will never allow her to browse at will.

"Miss Tang Ze," said the detective sitting across from the sofa, "You are a regular customer, we don't go around in circles, please speak up if you have anything to say."

"Do you remember what I told you last time?" Tang Zezhenqin refocused his attention on the detective in front of him, "The cellar of my house disappeared mysteriously, and then I began to dream inexplicably that you were repeatedly killed …”

"Of course I remember," the detective said blankly, "Last time, you asked me to help you solve a problem, and then told me all the dreams—but, watching the live broadcast of the trial for the past two days, your troubles seem to be no longer troublesome .”

"Let me just say it straight," Tang Zezhenqin looked directly at the detective: "Did you help?"

The detective smiled wryly: "I'm not that capable."

"Oh," Karasawa Makoto also breathed a sigh of relief, "If it was really you who took action, I really don't know what to do. It's such a huge favor, how can I repay it."

Detective: "Is this why you're here?"

"and this……"

Karasawa Makoto took out a stack of paintings from his bag and handed it to the detective.

"These are drawn by myself

Yes, it's all about the images I dreamed about you dying in my dreams during this time-I know those weird things are happening in this city every day, and I'm worried that you are involved in it, and I'm worried that it's hard to tell just by describing Clear, so it took some effort... I hope it can help you. "

The detective looked at her with surprise in his eyes for a moment.Then, he said: "Thank you very much." Then he immersed himself in looking at Karasawa Makoto's paintings.

This time, Karasawa Makoto brought a total of three paintings, corresponding to the three series of scenes where the detective died——

The first one is that the detective got into a weird taxi, and soon appeared in the aisle of the toll booth, turning into a blue corpse and being run over by passing vehicles;

The second is in an apartment surrounded by heavy fog, the detective is terrified, and then swallowed by a monster, leaving only a pair of bloody feet;

The third one was on a street late at night, when the detective's head suddenly flew up from his neck, and the wound exploded instantly, as if his head was pulled out by an invisible hand...

Tang Zezhenqin has certain art skills, and the pictures are lifelike, especially the vivid painting of the detective himself, which stems from her good family education when she was young.But the fly in the ointment is——

Detective: "Why is there no murderer's face in every painting?"

Karazawa Makoto: "I'm really sorry, because in my dream, the murderer either didn't appear, or his face was covered in a cloud of fog... like this—"

Tang Zezhenqin pointed to a painting in the first painting. Through the front windshield of the taxi, the driver could be seen adjusting the stereo, and his face was covered with a cloud of gray mist.

"By the way," Tang Zezhenqin said: "I still remember very clearly that the song that the driver played was "It's Raining Again in Nagasaki"."

……

Outside the Gu's Detective Office, the roadside, the street was empty, and a black car parked quietly.

Fully armed and sitting in the car, Tang Ze Makoto looked through the window and looked at the window of the detective agency again.

"What did he say?" Takanashi asked concerned.

"He said thank you," Karazawa Makoto said thoughtfully, "and he will pay me a lot of money. Moreover, every time I dream of his death in the future, I will have the opportunity to transfer a sum of money."

Takanashi: "He underestimated you too?"

"I accept it," Tang Zezhenqin took out a thick wad of cash from his bag, "It's really a lot."

Takanashi: "..."

"Later," Karasawa Makoto shook the money in his hand, "I'll treat you two to a big dinner!"

Takanashi: "This is too ridiculous...Are you short of money?"

"I don't want to accept it either," Karasawa Makoto said helplessly: "But obviously, Detective Gu Xing completely lacks trust in me, so he can only rely on labor remuneration to establish a relatively stable trading relationship - at least, he can do it with the same price next time. Reason to visit him again.”

Gao Lishuli: "You said, is it true that he lost your cellar? According to your request, I went to investigate the surveillance video of Detective Gu Xing when he was living in the villa-he did show a lot of things about the cellar. Very keen interest."

"I hope it's him," Tang Zezhenqin looked at the window of the detective agency again, "In short,

Try to slowly build a relationship of mutual trust first. "

……

Gu's Detective Agency, Gu Xing sat on an office chair, put his feet together on the desk, put his hands on the back of his head, sank into the back of the chair, and looked at the ceiling of the office.

Dong [-]: 【How credible do you think Tang Ze Makoto's words are? 】

Gu Xing: "She dreamed a lot of dreams, but there were only three scenes of my death. One of them was taken away by Eijiro, one was swallowed by Nobuhiko Kumada, and the last time, looking at the features on the painting, it seemed that Toduna The probability of becoming a witch is relatively high.

Head-pulling witch I can't say.However, the details in the two picture albums about Kumata and Eijiro are so perfect that almost only those who have seen the scene with their own eyes can draw them.Especially the corpses in the passageway of the toll booth... Apart from me, no other living person should know about it.If she made these up...that would be outrageous. "

Dong Er: [So, are you planning to believe her? 】

Gu Xing: "I think, we still have to verify it before we can finally confirm it."

Dong [-]: [Oh?How to verify? 】

In fact, the method of verification is not complicated. It only needs to prove that Makoto Tangze really had those dreams about Gu Xing's death, or that he will still have those dreams in the future.

Among the members of the Weird Alliance, Yoshida Mamoru has a way to verify this - by writing the program story of "Midnight Whispering", he can lead a certain rule related to dreaming to Tang Ze Makoto's villa and steal the other party's dream...

But as soon as Makoto Karasawa told Gu Xing about her dream, Mamoru Yoshida began to tell radio stories involving Makoto Karasawa's dream on the radio. It was easy to think of the relationship between Gu Xing and the Weird Alliance... Although Mamoru Yoshida's radio The audience is basically weird, but it's better to be cautious.

After thinking about it, Gu Xing finally decided to arrange Ogata Dazuo to sneak into Tang Ze Zhenqin's house in an invisible state, and secretly observe the other party's real situation...
