The Hundred Stories of Miss Ghost

"Hey, are you awake? What are you looking at?" I shouted at Xiaotong.

Xiaotong's voice sounded a little dazed, "Just now... I seem to have heard Xia Wei's voice..."

"It's Xia Wei! Just now you were almost bewitched to jump off the building! What happened just now!"

Xiaotong calmed down and reflected for a while, "Just now... I seem to have fallen into some kind of hallucination. A figure that looks like Xia Wei is calling me to go. But that should not be Xia Wei, because there is another Xia Wei calling me. , she told me, 'Be careful Mika, she's still wandering around this school...'”

"Tsk, it's really troublesome. It's Meijia and Xia Wei's. Your past friends are really worrying. By the way, I just took a ghost photo in that women's bathroom. In the photo is a The girl with black long straight hair who was bleeding all over her body was trying to attack me. It's a pity that the photo has become an ordinary photo, so you can't recognize it. Is this the one named Mika?"

"Long straight black hair...? No, Mika...is a bit of a mixed race. Her hair is light brown and long curly, a bit like a doll."

"So this guy is not the one named Xia Wei?"

"Hmm...Probably, Xia Wei didn't have long hair when she died. Of course, it can't be ruled out that her hair became longer after becoming a ghost..."

"Hmph, there are still a lot of ghosts in this school... I always feel a little dangerous, let's go back first this time. Next time we will bring Fubuki here, and we will chop these little miscellaneous fish one by one."

"...Okay." Xiaotong still seemed to care about that voice.

In short, this time I figured out two things.

One is that there seems to be an evil spirit that can affect people's minds.

The other is that a certain spirit here seems to be able to use photos as a medium to travel between virtual and real.

It is not clear at present whether the influence of these spirits is limited to the campus of Qingfeng High School, or has spread to a wider area, but just looking at these two abilities is already very tricky.

After returning to the shrine, the first thing I did was to search the Internet for all the news about Qingfeng High School.

The girl in the photo I took is neither Xia Wei nor Mijia, and she is wearing Qingfeng's uniform.Then there is a high probability that Qingfeng had other incidents in the past.

With such a random search, I haven't seen the death of a student yet, but I found a long list of scandals about the school. The school discipline is chaotic, and serious campus bullying incidents occur every year. I can even find the uncle The photo of the back of a girl wearing a Qingfeng uniform who seems to be earning pocket money with her hands, makes people call her a good guy.If it weren't for the low admission deviation and cheap tuition, it would be difficult for students to choose here.

Regarding the student suicide incident at Qingfeng High School, there are very few search entries, and even the incident that I know about Xiao Tong's friend Xia Wei falling from the building, I can't find one or two detailed reports.This not only makes people wonder whether the school and the education board have concealed the report to a certain extent.

Wait a minute, what if instead of searching for related articles, start with social media (SNS)?

After changing my mind, I tried to change various keywords and searched repeatedly on various SNS platforms, and finally found an interesting clue on twitter.

[It's over, I don't think I will dare to go to the women's toilet on the third floor again. 】

The person who posted the post was a cute cat with a profile picture, who could be seen as a girl at a glance.And in her past updates, you can see photos taken in Qingfeng's uniform, so you can think that she is Qingfeng's student.And the women's restroom on the third floor is the one where I took the supernatural photos.

The time of this post is April 4 this year, which happens to be the day when the spring break ends and the school returns to school.

There are some comments on this post, which seem to be posted by her classmates:

[I heard that he is a student of Class B, is it true? 】

【Yes, I heard...it’s this one @应尾熊熊】

【I am the one who saw the first scene today... I feel like I will be shadowed for the rest of my life...】

[Is there a class B student who can answer, is it related to bullying again? 】

[Shh, I can't say more.The school is suppressing reports everywhere now. 】

Huh?This ID...

Koala? ?

Isn't this... the guy who contacted Nanako on LINE and asked her to complete some projects?

Wait a minute, when Nanako "suicide", this "koala" should have died!

Or is it just a simple ID with the same name?

I clicked on the ID of the koala.

The latest tweet is-

【Ah, I am a whale~】

The accompanying picture is a photo of a whale pattern drawn on the arm with a knife.

This sentence...why is it so familiar?

By the way, isn't this what is being broadcast on the morning news?

A what... suicide game?

I googled the Blue Whale game again.

Judging from the information on the Internet, this is a "suicide game" that has been around for less than half a year. When you are ready to join the game, you will be asked to join an online group, and then there will be an "administrator" ", I will post a "task" to you every day, and it is said that as long as you complete all the tasks completely, you will definitely die.

…………

A big question mark can't help but appear in my head?

Participate in a game where you must die?Does anyone actually play this game?This is really too stupid.

Immediately felt unreasonable, but the current clues firmly point to such a game.

Although there is no conclusive evidence, it can be inferred that the "koala" committed suicide in a strange way in the school toilet cubicle because of playing this game, and then... Nanako photographed the place where the "koala" died The supernatural photos of the ghost, then.A "koala" with the same name has frequent conversations with Nanako on LINE, and will post some "issues" to Nanako.At the same time, both of them are suspected of being bullied.

Suicide on the first day of school is often such a signal, that is, it can no longer bear the rest of the campus life, so it ends its life on the first day after returning to school after the holiday.

Everything seems to be stringing together.

However, there seem to be more confusing problems.

Who is the original creator of this game?Is the "koala" who sent a message to Nanako the same person as the "koala" who suspected suicide?If so, how did she send the message posthumously, or, on the other end of the message...is it really a living person?

While thinking about these questions, I suddenly noticed again.

The screen of Nanako's pink phone lit up again.

Chapter 11 The Boring World

The screen of the phone lit up, and I took a glance at the phone, but found that it was not a supernatural phenomenon, but simply received a message.

It's just... this information actually came from "Koala Bear".

[Koala Bear] Hello.

I happened to be investigating this guy, and this guy sent a message. What a coincidence, so I immediately started typing to reply.

[Poisonous Mushroom] Hello~ Didn't you block me before?Why did you suddenly think of sending me a message~

[Koala Bear] Did you just read my twitter?

Wow, did you start to blow yourself up when you came up?No, wait a minute...

【Poison Mushroom】How do you know I read your twitter?

[Koala Bear] Because I've been watching you.

been looking at me?I'm being watched?

I looked around in doubt, and finally my suspicious eyes fell on the pink phone in my hand. You are the most suspicious person!This mobile phone is inherently weird. A hand was sticking out of it before. It doesn't seem strange to be able to monitor me through this mobile phone. It seems that it must be turned off when it is not in use.

【Poisonous Mushroom】Looking at me all the time?Ha, I see, so you are a stalker!I didn't even know that I still had fans who were so deeply obsessed with me!Shall I sign it for you~

【Koala Bear】...... You are such an interesting person.

[Poisonous Mushroom] I think so too, in this world, only boredom and safety pants are the biggest enemies!

[Koala Bear] That's right, I thought so too.

[Poisonous Mushroom] Do you also think that safety pants are the most evil invention in the world? !What about fellow-men!

[Koala Bear] Uh... No, what I want to say is that I am also deeply tired of the dullness and boredom of this world.Don't you think so?You can’t appear to be out of group, you have to carefully maintain your image, if you are a little different, you may be isolated or even bullied, isn’t that what group norms are all about?You can only follow the template set by others, and walk the road that can be seen at a glance, and there will be no unexpected things. Doesn’t this world feel boring?

[Poisonous Mushroom] This sounds like the speech of a middle school girl.

[Koala Bear] But, from my observation, I think you may be the same kind of person as me?Maybe, we can still be friends?

[Poisonous Mushroom] I don't want to be friends with people who hide their heads and show their tails and only hide behind the Internet and send messages secretly.

[Koala Bear] Don't reject me so quickly, do you want to try to come to this world?This side is definitely more interesting than the rigid and rigid world on that side, and compared to that side, we will have more like-minded friends.If you are reluctant to part with your friends over there, you can also invite friends over there~

【Poisonous Mushroom】Dream, don't even think about it.

[Koala Bear] That's really a pity, but please think about it carefully.There is still some time left, until then, I will always welcome you~

Seeing that the koala's status has become offline, I felt an inexplicable feeling of unhappiness in my heart.

Unexpectedly, the guy behind this ID is still such a self-righteous guy.

Do I find the world boring?This world is not as monotonous as it looks on the surface, there are actually various supernatural events happening below the calm surface!Isn't that fun enough?

However, one thing is undeniable. There was a time when I really felt that this world was empty and boring.When I thought I committed suicide before, I really thought that the reason for suicide was because I was bored.

It feels like there is even a little understanding of that koala, which is really a dangerous signal.

However, what kind of world does she talk about over there?

------

The next day, I told Xiaotong about the results of my investigation of "koalas" last night, but... I concealed my conversation with koalas, which was purely subconscious, and I don't know why I concealed it , probably it is not good for Xiaotong to hear such things.

Xiaotong frowned and confirmed: "You said... Nanako and the figure in the ghost photo you took are all this 'koala'? And she committed suicide because of playing that 'blue whale game' ?”

"Yeah." I nodded vigorously, "So I think there must be something wrong with that game. I searched for this game on the Internet, but I couldn't find too many details. I just found that people who participated in the game would engrave 'whale' on their bodies." pattern, as well as the two features that will declare 'I am a whale'. It is said that if you want to start the game, you must first join a certain group and wait for the 'administrator' to send you instructions. And this game, it is said that once From the beginning, the player will definitely commit suicide at the end..."

"Then what should we do if this is the case? Let's search online to see if we can find participants in other games, and then find out about the situation? First, search and post 'I am a whale' on SNS." 'A person who says that, right?"

"This is also a way, but I think... the efficiency is a bit too low. Search slowly. After finding it, the other party will most likely resist it and won't say anything to us. How long will it take to investigate this way? go?"

"Then what more efficient way do you have?"

I raised my hand high and said, "This game says that once you start playing, you will definitely commit suicide in the end. Then, if a ghost who has already committed suicide comes to play this game, she will never be able to kill herself again." Right? So, I propose that I try to participate in this game and obtain first-hand information, this is definitely the most efficient and safe way!"

Xiaotong froze for a moment, thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "No, I object. We have already confirmed in Qingfeng yesterday that that weird thing has the ability to affect people's mind. Senior sister, you are immune to physical damage. Injury, but not immune to magic damage. And...ghosts are not incapable of 'death', they dissipate naturally, are exorcised, and are blacked by evil spirits. There are many ways to die. If you learn Sister, if you are really brainwashed and want to 'suicide', it is not impossible."

"Eh? Is that so..." I couldn't help but touch my forehead, "In that case, I can only think of stupid solutions..."

Just as we were struggling with this, someone knocked on the door.

"Please come in~" Xiaotong replied.

It was Takao Kazuha who pushed the door and entered, her expression seemed a little hasty.

"Hey, Xiaotong, and Ning Meng, I have something to discuss with you about Shixi!"

"Sister Sakurai, what's wrong with her?" Xiaotong asked suspiciously.

Yiyu said anxiously: "Didn't I see her at the Moon Festival before, she said... that... She hasn't given up hope on Ning Meng. I didn't quite understand what she meant at the time, As a result, in the past two days, I found that her recent actions have been somewhat mysterious, and she always goes to some weird parties in secret! I suspect that she may be in order to get a chance to see Ning Meng. Psychic power, ran off to join some cult!"

Chapter 12 Resurrection

"Here is the poltergeist, here is the poltergeist, call root two, call root two, root two, do you hear that?"

"........."

"The target is about 50 meters ahead, root number two, if you don't hurry up, you will lose it?"

"Sister Mochizuki, can you be normal."

"Please call me Poltergeist! We are in a covert operation now, don't call me by my first name!"

"...Okay, Poltergeist, may I ask, why am I called Square Root Two?"

"It's the operation code name I gave you! How about it, isn't it cool!"

"What I want to ask is, why did you give me this name?!"

"That...about...height?"

"...Sister, you will die today."

"No, I'm already dead, okay?"

"Then die again!"

"Excessive... By the way, why are you still wearing your school uniform during the holiday? Our school uniform is very famous, isn't it easy to be recognized by people? Don't you have a few cute private clothes? !"

"This one I took by hand..."

"Hmph, or after the investigation is over, let's just go to the clothing store and choose some clothes for the root number two! As a young girl, your clothes are too monotonous!"

"Don't call me root number two root number two!"

"Hush, Xiaotong, please keep your voice down, I know you are chatting with Ning Meng, but pay attention, this is on the street, you will be treated as crazy."
