Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 453 The Woman and the Armor

Luoying City North District.

Chen Beibei and the Nightmare-Eating Tapir were wandering in the street, and occasionally someone passed by, but the Nightmare-eating Tapir was nowhere to be seen.

There was always a faint unpleasant smell in the air.

Generally speaking, if everyone's economic conditions are better, basically no one is willing to live in such a place for a long time.

"Nightmare-eating tapir, let's go."

Chen Beibei looked at the dream-eating tapir and said to her.

It's getting late now, Chen Beibei plans to let the nightmare eater sneak into the second floor of the shroud shop.

"Ah."

The nightmare-eating tapir replied softly.

The pink body of the nightmare-eating tapir looks very or very cute.

The nightmare-eating tapir followed closely behind Chen Beibei, and the two soon came to the door of the shroud shop again.

The lights in the shroud store had already been turned off, and when I stood at the door, I couldn't hear any sound from inside.

"Should have fallen asleep."

Chen Beibei thought to himself.

in fact.

The boss looks like nothing more than a beautiful woman in her 30s and [-]s, and this one lives in such a place.Even at night, I slept alone in the shroud shop.It still feels a little pitiful.

after all.

Who, if an ordinary person, would come to a place like this alone?

Do not leave your shop all day long.

Life doesn't look like anything new either.

"The Nightmare Eater, after you go in, go directly to the second floor. There should be a woman sleeping inside. Be careful, don't make any noise, and don't be seen by her."

Chen Beibei looked at the dream-eating tapir and said to her.

"Hmm..." The nightmare-eating tapir nodded, and then asked, "Master, can I just write down what I saw on the second floor and tell you?"

"Ah."

Chen Beibei replied.

……

The nightmare-eating tapir walked through the door, and the room was very dark because the lights were not turned on.

Fortunately, the nightmare-eating tapir acts at night all year round.Even in a completely dark environment, you can see the surrounding scene clearly.Therefore, whether there is light or not has no effect on the nightmare.

"Well... the clothes inside are so beautiful!"

When the dream-eating tapir walked past the first floor of the shroud shop, he saw the shrouds hanging on the wall.

but.

The nightmare-eating tapir did not know that those clothes were shrouds.

Just treat those clothes as ordinary clothes, even so, those clothes are still very beautiful for a nightmare!

"Where are the stairs..."

After the nightmare-eating tapir came in, it went directly to find the stairs going upstairs.Even though he didn't ask Chen Beibei where the stairs were, the nightmare eater quickly saw the stairs against the left wall.

The nightmare-eating tapir walked up the stairs and came to the second floor of the shroud shop.

"Brother... when will you come back?"

A woman's voice sounded.

The sound was very low and could not be heard clearly, as if someone was talking in his sleep while he was asleep.

The nightmare-eating tapir froze for a moment, planning to hide.

However, the nightmare-eating tapir quickly realized that humans cannot see themselves at all.

The nightmare-eating tapir walked towards where the sound came from.

"younger brother……"

In the flickering candlelight, I saw a woman in a red gauze dress, immersed in mending an old armor.

The candlelight was printed on the woman's face, which looked very soft.

Women are beautiful.

It is the kind of beauty that makes people feel pity, and it is also the kind of lonely beauty...

The nightmare-eating tapir came to the woman, who was still mending the armor in her hand.

The armor looks very old.

Even if it is patched, it seems impossible to continue to use it.

not to mention.

In this day and age... armor is useless...

But women don't seem to know this, or women don't care about it at all.

The woman is just patiently mending the clothes.

The shadow printed on the wall becomes like an elegant picture scroll as the needle and thread are shuttled.

The nightmare-eating tapir walked around on the second floor.

The second floor looks like an unused floor. Except for the room where the woman sleeps, there is a bed, and there is no furniture.

Not even a dresser, a wardrobe... none of these necessary furniture...

When the nightmare-eating tapir left.

Looking back at the woman again, the woman said something like a dream: "When I mend this armor...you will be back..."

……

The door of the shroud shop.

On a cold night, the moonlight casts dappled light through the bleak trees.

Chen Beibei stood at the door, quietly waiting for the nightmare eater.

The whole shroud shop looked dark, without a ray of light, and Chen Beibei couldn't help but feel sympathy for the owner of the shroud shop.

Since a woman like a flower will sleep alone in a shroud shop at night.

don't even turn on the lights...

After all, how many sad past events have you experienced to abandon the hypocrisy on your body so cleanly?

"Owner,……"

The voice of the nightmare-eating tapir resounded under Chen Beibei's feet, and then the nightmare-eating tapir came out from the gate of the shroud shop.

"Let's talk as we go."

Chen Beibei said in a low voice.After all, it was for people to sneak into a strange woman's house in the middle of the night, so Chen Beibei was still very worried about being discovered by passers-by.

Even ordinary people can't see the dream-eating tapir.

but.

It was found, late at night, standing alone at the door of a beautiful woman living alone.

It will also make people suspicious.

Chen Beibei left the shroud shop directly with the nightmare-eating tapir. After leaving the North District, Chen Beibei began to talk to the nightmare-eating tapir.

"Nightmare eater, did you find anything strange on the second floor of the shroud shop?"

Chen Beibei looked at the dream-eating tapir and asked her.

The dream-eating tapir followed behind Chen Beibei, and said as he walked, "I don't know if what I saw is strange or not... Anyway, there is a very beautiful woman who is mending armor upstairs. I will say a few words..."

"Who is the woman talking to?"

Chen Beibei asked quickly.

The owner of the shroud shop is a quiet person, this is what Chen Beibei knows.

Even Sanweihu, who worked in the shroud shop for a few months, did not see the owner of the shroud shop say a few words.Since such a woman can say a few words from time to time...

This made Chen Beibei feel a little strange.

"Master, there is only that woman upstairs, I... don't know who she is talking to..."

The dream-eating tapir looked at Chen Beibei and replied to him.

"no one?"

"Ah."

The nightmare-eating tapir said affirmatively.

"Isn't the light upstairs turned off? Is that woman mending armor in the dark?"

Chen Beibei asked.

When Chen Beibei was at the entrance of the shroud shop, he did not see the interesting light in the shroud shop.

and so.

Chen Beibei would ask such a question.

"Candles were lit upstairs, but the woman drew the curtains. Probably because she didn't want others to see her mending armor in the middle of the night, such a scene."

The dream-eating tapir looked at Chen Beibei and replied to him.

Obviously.

Women also know that their behavior is relatively weird, so they will do this.

The curtains must also be very thick, otherwise, it would be impossible to see no light from outside.

"What did she say?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Brother, when will you come back?"

The nightmare-eating tapir imitated the woman's tone and said, it sounded with a hint of sadness in her voice.

"When I fix this armor...you will be back."

The nightmare eater continued.

The voice doesn't sound like the voice of a nightmare, but it is very similar to the imitation.

Just listening to the voice, you can feel the expectation and the loneliness in your heart.

"Did you just say these two sentences?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Ah."

The nightmare-eating tapir replied.

From these two sentences alone, there is no way to get a lot of information.

perhaps.

It's just that the woman is waiting for her brother to come back.

But thinking of the woman like this, it's not hard to guess that it might be difficult for her brother to come back.

Because if it was easy for her brother to come back.Then there is no need for women to expect so much.

"Master, is that woman waiting for her younger brother?"

The dream-eating tapir asked.

"Perhaps so."

Chen Beibei looked at the dream-eating tapir and replied slowly.

……

Time passed quietly, and it has been a week since the Nightmare Eater visited the shroud shop at night.

during this week.

Chen Beibei asked the nightmare eater to go to the shroud shop every night, but still got nothing.

In Luoying City, there was no news of the death of a young woman in this week.

The owner of the shroud shop takes out that old armor every night to mend it.From time to time, he would say something in his mouth, but basically it was related to his younger brother.

"Does it really have nothing to do with the owner of the shroud shop?"

Chen Beibei tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. After all, it was calculated according to the frequency of those young women's deaths before.A young woman dies every ten days.

The last woman who died was a sick woman who lived in the east area of ​​Luoying City.

His husband loves her very much.

but.

In the end, I still couldn't find the monster who killed her...or...to find the real reason for her death!
Eight days have passed since the last woman died.

If it was really a monster, and Chen Beibei couldn't find that monster.

Then there is no doubt that young women will be killed again soon.

"Master, what are you worried about?"

Guan Fox asked.

Guan Hu had always lived in Chen Beibei's room, and if Chen Beibei had anything to do, he would usually tell Guan Hu the truth.

"During the past few months in Luoying City, young women have died frequently. Have I told you about this before?"

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and asked her.

The white and slender fox nodded slightly, listening carefully to Chen Beibei's narration.

"I feel that new young women will die soon. This incident, if it is not a coincidence, is basically the work of monsters..."

Chen Beibei looked at Guan Hu and said to her.

Although Chen Beibei had never seen the seven dead women before, Chen Beibei had met Gao Jin's wife.

Looking back on his wife lying on the bed now, she seemed to be asleep.

If Gao Jin hadn't said beforehand that his wife was dead, Chen Beibei would definitely not think so.

There are no scars on the woman's body, and her face is peaceful...

Perhaps there are only ghosts and ghosts that can take human lives like this.

"Will anyone die again..."

Guan Hu frowned and said slowly.

Because this matter has not been fully announced, the clues that Chen Beibei and the others can grasp are really limited.

Even if he guessed that someone would continue to die, there was nothing he could do.

"Now I can only hope... the owner of the shroud shop is the one who killed those young women!"

Chen Beibei replied.

When Chen Beibei said these words, it was as if a light flashed in his head.

Suddenly realized... I seemed to have overlooked a very important thing in the past!

Correct!
That is the identity of the owner of the shroud shop! !

Chen Beibei and the others had always speculated that it was a monster who killed people, but before that, it was because Sanweihu had been working part-time in the shroud shop.Chen Beibei and the others never doubted the identity of the owner of the shroud shop.

And the reason why the dream-eating tapir kept staring at the owner of the shroud shop was simply because Chen Beibei felt that the owner of the shroud shop should have some relationship with the deaths of those young women.

but.

It's just a suspicion!
"Master, haven't you been to that shroud shop? Since you said that it was a monster who killed the man, then use your spiritual eyes to see if the owner of the shroud shop is a human or a monster. You can know whether it is a human being or a monster. This matter has nothing to do with the shroud shop. Does the boss have anything to do with it?"

Guan Hu said.

What Guan Hu said was exactly what Chen Beibei had just thought of!
Judging from the current situation, the owner of the shroud shop is still the most suspected.

And could not be sure.

It's just that Chen Beibei ignored the identity of the owner of the shroud shop!

The first yin and yang technique that Chen Beibei exchanged for Gouyu was Lingyan, which was a yin and yang technique that could see the real appearance of ghosts.

"Guanhu, let's go now!"

Chen Beibei said excitedly.

The owner of the shroud shop has always been very strange. The possibility that she is a monster is also very high.

and so.

At this time, if Chen Beibei can be sure that she is a monster.

Then you can directly ask her some of your doubts. After all, when facing monsters, you don't need to be full of worries like facing humans.

"But it's already night."

Guan Hu turned into a human and stood by the bed: "We are just guessing now."

Guanhu probably felt that if he passed in the middle of the night, it might cause some trouble.

after all.

Going to a strange woman's house at this time, how could others open the door for them?

"Okay then, let's go tomorrow morning."

Chen Beibei said.

Just now, Chen Beibei was really a little excited, so he didn't consider the issue of time.

"Well, master... you should be able to fall asleep now, right?"

Guan Hu looked at Chen Beibei and said with a smile.

"Go to sleep."

Chen Beibei said.

If this matter is not resolved, Chen Beibei will always be worried.

after all.

Now that Chen Beibei has become an Onmyoji, if something happened within the scope of his own ghosts, then he must try his best to solve it.
