"Ah, that's because there was a volcanic gas leak incident after that. It was thought that everyone was dead, and that incident was a murder case that only happened in Hinamizawa, so the murderer was deemed to be dead." "That's it. Hasty?" "No way, under that big incident, this is nothing at all...but, now that I think about it, I always feel that the serial murder case was the beginning of everything" Chapter 66

Chapter 3 Hojo Satoko "What on earth happened at that time?" Although it happened 20 years ago, Akasaka Mamoru still seemed to be quite concerned.

But this is normal. If you didn't care, you wouldn't come to this forgotten Hinamizawa with Oishi Zangren 20 years later.

"It's right in front." While Akasaka Mamoru was thinking, Oishi Zangren had already led them to a place that might be like a guest house.

Maybe it's because this suspected guest house building was left over 20 years ago. It's surrounded by weeds and there's a sign on it, but the writing is very blurry.

"Hey, Niizuma-kun, look, there seems to be someone in there." When he got closer, Hattori Yujiro noticed that there seemed to be a figure walking around in the guest house, and he immediately said to Niizuma Eiji beside him.

"It should be the person Mr. Oishi is looking for, right?" "It must be that person~~ Haha, otherwise it could be Mr. Oishigami." "Master Oishigami?" Hearing Oishi's mouth suddenly jump, Coming up with a strange name, Eiji Niizuma immediately expressed his doubts.

"Ah? You've obviously investigated this place, but haven't you ever heard of Lord Oshashin?" "Maybe it's because the Internet only records events, but not local cultural beliefs and the like. This kind of village local It’s really hard for outsiders to know about faith.” It’s normal for Oishi Tibetan people to hardly access the Internet and not know the information on the Internet. As Mamoru Akasaka, who has paid attention to online rumors, he knows that there are records on the Internet about the faith of Hinamizawa’s local God of God.

But that was regarded as unimportant scattered information, placed in the corner.

The focus of their conversation was still on why they tried to bury Hinamizawa with concrete, what the government was covering up, and whether the locals were aware of a series of events that occurred in the area before the village was destroyed.

"Is she...a woman?" "That's not an ordinary woman, she's the girl A who is rumored on the Internet." "Girl A?" After getting closer, he could see the appearance of the person inside, so Akasaka Mamoru used A rather strange code name.

This made Hattori Yujiro look puzzled, but Akasaka Mamoru was walking in front and didn't notice it, and continued to explain.

"That's right, Girl A. The other person is the only girl who survived in Hinamizawa Village after the Hinamizawa Disaster. She is also the person who is now called Girl A on the Internet." After Akasaka Wei gave the two people behind During the explanation, Oishi Zangren walked up and greeted the people inside.

"Long time no see, Ms. Hojo, how are you doing?" "Mr. Oishi, thank you for your concern. I'm fine recently." There was a lady with short yellow hair in the house, and Oishi walked over to say hello. At that time, they did not look at each other, but looked through the glass of this house and stared into the distance.

"Are they?" However, after Eiji Niizuma and Yujiro Hattori walked into the door, she seemed to feel something, turned her head and looked at the two people in front of her.

"Ah, they are tourists who come to explore around here. There have been more and more people like this recently... But you know, it's too dangerous here. We can't let them wander around here." "Tourists ...No, it doesn't feel like that." "Ms. Hojo? Ms. Satoko Hojo?" I don't know what Satoko Hojo suddenly noticed. She left the window and walked straight in front of her new wife Eiji and Hattori Yujiro.

This caused Oishi Zangren on the side to directly call out the other party's full name to signal the other party to calm down.

"Don't get excited, I just feel a little familiar... No, it's probably an illusion." Hojo Satoko didn't know what he felt in the two of them. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and returned to the original place.

"Ms. Hojo, do you feel familiar with these two? Can you tell us more specifically." After Satoko Hojo regained his composure, Akasaka Mamoru next to him also relaxed his guard and loosened the weapon in his pocket.

There was no way, after all, the other party was that Hojo Satoko, and the other party's mental state had been bad. If the condition relapsed in the situation just now, he had to be prepared for the worst.

"...Teppei." After a long silence, a name popped out of Satoko Hojo's mouth.

"Teppei? Hojo Teppei? I remember it's your uncle, right..." Akasaka Mamoru didn't know the name, but Oishi Zangren had a slight impression. After all, he was a policeman in the Hinamizawa area. , most of the local residents in Hinamizawa have an impression.

Because the other party was a relative of Satoko Hojo, Oishi Zangren had seen it many times when browsing the information.

"The two of them give me a feeling of Tieping..." "Um...a feeling of Tieping? Could it be that they are not just tourists, but distant relatives of your Hojo family? But..." Oishi Kuroto looked at the two of them. He really couldn't see how Eiji Shinzuma and Yujiro Hattori felt like Hojo Teppei.

Although his memory was a bit blurry, he still remembered that Hojo Teppei was a scoundrel who wandered around the village every day, and was nothing more than a rogue.

Good people.

"It's not that...it's the Teppei of that day." "The Teppei of that day?" Hojo Satoko's words were too vague, and Oishi Zangren really didn't understand what the other party said.

"Um... are we similar to Ms. Hojo's uncle?" "But I promise, I have never heard of the surname Hojo." Because it was mentioned, Eiji Aizuma and Yujiro Hattori racked their brains to think. .

But no matter what they thought, they couldn't think of any of their relatives or acquaintances with the surname Hojo, and the name Teppei was even unheard of.

However, Eiji Shinzuma kept an eye out, feeling that there was something wrong with what the other party said about that day, so he tried to give a secret signal with a wink like Yujiro Hattori.

Unfortunately, they had no experience of blinking and signaling, and there was no such tacit understanding between them.

Hattori Yuujiro had no idea what the other person was doing when he suddenly started ogling him. After a moment of hesitation, he returned the ogling.

"Ah, it hurts, what are you doing, Niizuma-kun!" This made Eiji Niizuma unbearable, and stepped on Yujiro Hattori's foot, causing him to complain regardless of the occasion.

But immediately, Yujiro Hattori, who noticed that they were attracting too much attention, immediately shut up.

Because several people on the side were paying attention to them at this time.

Chapter 664 Business Card

"It's so noisy that you really look like a tourist who doesn't know anything, but..." Akasaka Mamoru glanced at the two uninvited guests on the side, and then at Satoko Hojo.

Originally, he did think that these two people were just ordinary tourists, but judging from Hojo Satoko's reaction, he felt that these two people seemed to be hiding something.

"Oh, it's been a long time since it was so lively... But it's not like this. It doesn't mean similar faces or similar personalities, but something more essential." Satoko Hojo looked at the fight between the two. A smile appeared on her face, reminding her of her friends who could play like this in the past.

"Essence...well, I surrender, Ms. Hojo, I'm not good at guessing riddles. You just torture an old person like me. Let's talk about it in detail." Oishi Zangren wanted to try to think, but it was obvious that , this kind of mental exercise is a bit too strenuous for an elderly person like him. He shook his head helplessly, hoping that Satoko Hojo would explain clearly.

"It's hard to describe in words, and I couldn't understand it when I was a child... But now when I think back, I can tell that the Tieping that day was not the Tieping I knew." "Not the Tieping you know. ? Specifically..." "I......don't know how to explain it." "Hey, Akasaka, please don't make things difficult for me. She said it's hard to describe. Ahem, Ms. Hojo, please continue." Oishi Zangren said not to embarrass the other party, but the next sentence asked Hojo Satoko to continue speaking.

This shut up Akasaka Mamoru, who was about to ask anything else. He felt that it was better for Oishi Zangren to come up with such things as speaking skills.

"...The criminal in the serial murder case, I think, is Teppei." After listening to Oishi Kurato's words, Hojo Satoko hesitated for a while, and finally decided to speak.

She didn't have any evidence, but she had a vague intuition from the day the other party changed and the casualties, that it was Hojo Teppei who did it.

"What... Well, it doesn't seem impossible." "But why did Hojo do this? After all, does he have such ability?" Hojo Satoko's words shocked both Akasaka Mamoru and Oishi Zangren, but Recover immediately.

The main reason is that many years have passed since that case, and only Satoko Hojo is left in Hinamizawa Village. All the parties involved have died, so there is no point in pursuing this case.

The key is that Oishi Zangren said before that the beginning of the Hinamizawa disaster was the serial murder incident.

In addition, Hojo Satoko said that Teppei was not the Teppei she knew, so there must be a lot of secrets hidden in it.

For example, what happened to Hojo Teppei, why he killed people continuously, and how he was not discovered by others.

"I don't know, I don't know anything." Unfortunately, Satoko Hojo knew nothing about all this. She could only give her own guesses that were not true or false.

Although she herself feels that this is indeed the case, when it comes to evidence, intuition and the like cannot be used as facts.

Now she only says this because 20 years have passed and everyone is gone, so it doesn't matter what she says anymore.

"Speaking of which, why does Mr. Oishi think that the serial murder case is the beginning of everything." Hojo Satoko seemed to have some stress reactions and could not say anything. Akasaka Mamoru, who was thinking, asked Oishi Kurato on the side why he suspected that there was something wrong with him. The serial murder case, which is no longer important in the future, is the focus.

"Those who died, as the police officer in charge of the investigation at the time, I found something... that doesn't quite seem like what the people would explain." "It doesn't quite seem like what the people would explain?" "Well, although the incident caused panic at the time, according to the Some investigations... none of the deceased were locals, but people who moved to Hinamizawa in recent years." "Mr. Oishi

What I mean is... As a local, Hojo Teppei did that because he was xenophobic? "No, if it is really to kill outsiders indiscriminately, it would be simple... The problem is when we want to investigate the interpersonal relationships of the deceased and inform their relatives of the news." "Oishi Zangren showed an expression of recollection, and his face slowly became serious.

"All the interpersonal relationships of these deceased people in other places are all fictitious. According to our investigation, there has never been such a person among the former friends they once mentioned verbally. Even they themselves, although they exist in the files, are not present on the ground. When we were searching, there was no trace of their birthplace at all. The locals said that there was no one we were looking for." "Wait a minute, Mr. Oishi, you mean that all the deceased people had fake identities? But in the file But there is..." "There is something more interesting. Although their files show that they are from all over the country, according to some vehicle records I checked, in fact, all the deceased with false files came from Tokyo. "It's all Tokyo?! In other words, that big disaster really..." "Huh? Wait, if I remember correctly, the license plate of your car seems to be from Tokyo?!" Akasaka Mamoru He wanted to say something, but Oishi Kuroto was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized something was wrong, because the license plate of Hattori Yujiro's car parked on the roadside was from Tokyo, which made Oishi Kuroto misunderstood something.

He might have thought he was just a tourist, but after he felt familiar with Satoko in Hojo and the deceased was from Tokyo, he felt something was wrong.

"Who are you two? Are you really just tourists who are curious about this place, or..." Akasaka Mamoru also became serious and looked at the two of them very seriously.

"I confess, I'm just an ordinary cartoonist who came here to collect materials!" "I'm his assistant, Jump's cartoon editor. I'm definitely not from Tokyo... Well, it seems like we are indeed from Tokyo, but not Well, this is my business card!" Just now, the two of them noticed that there seemed to be weapons in Akasaka Mamoru's pockets. Now that they saw them doubting themselves, they immediately spoke.

Although I don't know if it will be useful, but the other party didn't believe it when I said Shen Yin just now, so I can only see if this can pass the test.

"Jump, the editor of that famous comic magazine? This card doesn't look fake, but... What are you doing here?" Akasaka Mamoru took Yujiro Hattori's business card and looked at it twice, feeling uncomfortable. Like fake.

The main reason is that comics editor is not an identity that is easy to disguise. If you want to fake it, other professions would be more suitable. There is no need to use this one.

Chapter 665 The Return

"Wait a minute, Akasaka, look here..." Just as Akasaka Wei stared at the two of them suspiciously, Oishi Zangren suddenly felt something was wrong. He glanced behind him in the direction they were walking in and pointed. Said some footprints on the side of the road.

"That's it? Let me ask, you should have come here in two people, right?" "Of course, there are only two." "In other words..." "Besides us, who else exists outside?" There are some messy footprints on the road outside the room, but if you look carefully, you will find them.

In addition to the footprints of the four of them, there was also an obviously large footprint on the road they walked on, and a footprint of this size could never belong to Satoko Hojo.

Not to mention the impression that they had never seen the footprints when they came here.

In other words, after they entered the room, someone followed them from behind without them noticing and was lurking nearby.

"Ah!" "Hey! What is that." "I knew what was going to happen!" Just as a few people were observing the surroundings attentively, Hojo Satoko suddenly let out a cry as if he saw something that shouldn't exist. exclaimed.

The next moment, Hattori Yujiro and Shinzuma Eiji suddenly saw several black shadow-like things suddenly appear from the void, which made them exclaim together with Hojo Satoko.

"What's wrong? What did you see?" "Mr. Oishi, be alert!" However, the black shadow was clearly right in front of them, but Oishi Kuroto and Akasaka Mamoru didn't know why they didn't notice it.

His eyes were clearly looking at where those black shadows were, but they didn't even exist in his eyes.

"&**&...%¥" "¥...#@@#¥(%" The black shadow kept approaching the two of them, and strange sounds came from the blurred body.

This made Hojo Satoko take a few steps back unconsciously, and also caused some panic among the newly targeted Eiji and Hattori Yujiro.

"Courage, you need to rely on courage at times like this." "Is now the time to talk about this kind of thing, Niizuma-kun, we are in trouble." "Don't panic, Yuujiro, there is no way forward, go to the window!" " Window, window? Okay, just take the window!" A large number of black shadows have surrounded the entrance, making it impossible to get through.

Hattori Yujiro took a look and felt that what Eiji Niizuma said was not true.

Wrong, I immediately followed Eiji Shinzuma and ran to a window on the side.

"What did you see? Hey, answer quickly." "Why are the three of them...could it be said that they are really Lord Yushegami? No, it is absolutely impossible." The expressions of the three people in front of me don't look like they are fake. , the two people who didn't understand the situation at all could only tense up and look at the room where there was no change in their eyes.

'Bang' However, when Hattori Yujiro opened the side window halfway, there was a loud bang from the side, which made him startled.

Looking carefully, he found that there was also a black shadow outside the window that seemed to be hitting the window for some reason.

"&&*...%¥" "...%#¥Hey%¥#" The voice became even more noisy, and Eiji Niizuma also felt that something was not good. In the state of being flanked before and after, he gritted his teeth and was about to do something. .

'Bang' 'Bang' As if he had a premonition of Eiji Niizuma's preparations, the sound of the window being hit became heavier and more frequent.

"&%¥Are you okay¥%#?" "...%##@#Open*&" I don't know if it's an illusion. The voices of these black shadows just now clearly sounded like a shapeless noise, but this guy, he But suddenly I heard specific words in the noise.

"It's a bit strange..." "Hey, Niizuma-kun, look, they, they..." Just when Niizuma Eiji felt strange, Hattori Yujiro on the side suddenly tapped him on the shoulder and motioned him to look at Akasaka Mamoru. The direction of Dashi Tibetans.

"This is..." Under their gaze, the two people didn't know when they began to feel translucent.

Moreover, it is not only the two people but also the surrounding buildings that are translucent. Only the color of Satoko Hojo on the side is slightly better, but it has also begun to fade.

'Dong' 'Dong' The knocking on the window became heavier. Such an obvious change made the two people vaguely understand something.

'Pop' At a certain moment, when the eyes are closed and opened again.

The two suddenly found themselves back in the original car without knowing when. "And outside their car window, a lot of people gathered around them at some point.

The most eye-catching one is a man wearing a police uniform, knocking on the car window.

"Are you okay? Hello, are you okay?" "Maybe there's a lack of salt. There's nothing we can do. Open the broken window. I've brought the tools." "Be careful, don't get glass shards on people." "Wait, wait, they seem to be awake?" When the two first got up, their movements were very slight, they just opened their eyes slightly, and no one outside the car noticed.

By the time they realized they were back and looked around, a man was already holding a small hammer and was about to smash the window.

Fortunately, before he smashed the window, he noticed the reaction of the people inside and stopped what he was doing.

"We... just... uh..." "I think it's not a hallucination. Also, I think you have to open the window now." This feeling of transformation between reality and dream made Yujiro Hattori confused. He looked at his new wife Eiji with some incomprehension, wondering what exactly he had encountered just now, and wondering if it was just a dream because he was sleepy.

Eiji, the new wife who also encountered the same situation, saw the confusion in the other party's eyes, and then motioned to the other party to open the window.

Because those outside saw the two people standing up so stiffly, they picked up the hammer again.

Probably because they didn't move after waking up, I suspected they were confused due to lack of oxygen or something.

"Thank God, you guys are okay." "The ambulance will be here soon. Don't move now." "Can you hear us? Breathe in, take a big breath." He only did this because he was worried that these people would really break the window and smash it. Not long after buying the car, Hattori Yujiro reacted and opened the window.

This made the people surrounding their car open the door along the open window, help the two people get out of the car, and at the same time told them that the ambulance had been arranged.

"So this is what we are doing?" Eiji, who was helped out of the car, looked at the crowd of people outside the car and didn't quite understand what was going on.

Chapter 666 Steins;Gate The Movie

"Hey~~That teacher Eiji Shinzuma is actually hospitalized." One Sunday afternoon, Hashida Zhi was browsing the web in the lab and said with some concern when he saw a certain piece of news.

"Eiji Niizuma?" Okabe Rintaro lay on the sofa nearby and asked lazily without looking back.

"The cartoonist of Jump is the author of "Crow"." "Ah, um, I haven't read that much, and is there anything strange about it? Isn't it easy to be a cartoonist... If you think about it, it doesn't seem I've seen Yuri when he was in bad health." Probably because he is also a manga artist, when he mentioned Rintaro Okabe, he was reminded of Yuri Kousaka, and then he felt as if he had never seen Yuri Kousaka sick before.

"Well, that's Yuri

Shila, eh... It's a bit interesting. There are rumors that Mr. Eiji Niizuma mentioned in the hospital that he and his assistant returned after encountering Kamigakure. "" Shenyin?Isn’t this not popular anymore..." "Huh?Okaglun, you forgot the time we had before... you understand. "Hashida Zhi didn't say it completely, but Okabe Rintaro understood what he wanted to say.

"This is different from that. How can this kind of thing happen so often? Speaking of which, I remember that the snacks in the lab seem to be gone. I will go to the supermarket below to buy some." Maybe it's because lying down is too boring. Well, Rintaro Okabe got up from the sofa and prepared to go downstairs.

'Click' At this moment, the door to the lab was opened, and Kosaka Yuri walked in with a slow pace.

"Yuri, you're here... Look, teacher Eiji Shinzuma is in the hospital." Seeing Yuri Kosaka coming over, Hashida pointed at the web page that was about to be closed and said what he had just said to Rintaro Okabe What I just said.

"I belong to gongon, and I'm not very familiar with that guy... Hey, it turns out it's him." Yuri Kosaka, who walked in, first opened the refrigerator, then took a can of Dr. Pepper, and then looked at computer screen.

He didn't care at first, but after seeing the big face posted on the web page, he nodded thoughtfully.

"Do you know Yuri?" "I remember the face, but I really can't remember the name... I see, that's what happened, uh, it doesn't seem to matter, are you planning to go out, Jiuzhen?" "Go shopping for a while. , what's wrong?" "It's nothing, it's just Steins;Gate... you know, the theatrical version and stuff are ready." "Um, the theatrical version? So soon?" OAD has been on sale for a while, The anime has also ended for a few months.

However, it took only a few months to produce an OAD take-out theatrical version, which can be said to be super efficient in the industry.

"Perhaps we are just taking advantage of the period when the popularity is high shortly after the end. It is not incomprehensible." Production capacity is not considered, but this is reasonable in terms of business behavior, Hashida thought and expressed his understanding.

"Well, today is a day off. Everyone should come back. There is no need to shout...I'm going to go out to buy something first." The main place where everyone in the lab gathers and has fun. We don't talk on weekdays. On days off, the basic members If nothing happens, he will come over to show his face and make some noise.

Okabe Rintaro thinks he should go to the damn supermarket now and buy some damn snacks.

Therefore, he waved his hand, opened the door, and left the lab directly.
