I have found out your real name

Chapter 28 The Edelweiss Hot Spring Hotel Murder Incident

In the afternoon of the next day, Li Wu took the wrapped crowbar and came to the front of the hot spring hotel mentioned by Akabane Yuki.

"This place is quite remote."

He traveled by bus for about three hours before arriving at his destination.

This is already a suburban village that is about to break away from Chiyo City. According to the continuous mountains, the streets reveal a quaint atmosphere that is completely different from the city.

The inn is a three-story wooden building with a black brick roof spreading out like swallows.

The door was open, and above the door hung a blue cloth with the name of the inn written on it:

Edelweiss Hot Spring Hotel.

As he approached the door, he saw Aoi Hoshikawa standing under the eaves of the hotel with a bored expression on his face.

She was wearing a beige collar, a sweater with a pink rabbit pattern on her chest, and a travel bag behind her.

It looked like a tourist from the city.

"When did you come back?"

Li Wu approached and asked.

"Last night, I sent you a message on the tram coming back."

She seemed to have thought of something, and pointed at Li Wu with a finger: "Ah, classmate Li Wu, you are so disrespectful, you actually got the limelight by yourself!"

"Isn't it because you're not here—by the way, where's the priestess?"

Li Wu looked around, but did not find Yuxi.

"Sister Yuxi said that the shikigami was destroyed last time, and she wanted to complete the restoration as soon as possible. The talisman paper gave me a lot."

She took down the backpack, unzipped it, and could vaguely see a stack of papers stuffed inside.

"The shikigami didn't work at all last time."

It is really in line with her evaluation of her own combat power when she first met, but Li Wu still misses Miss Miko's supporting role very much.

"Don't say that in front of Yuki-san."

When the two stepped into the hotel gate, the first thing they saw was the proprietress sitting at the front desk.

She was a cool and cold beauty, wearing a bathrobe embroidered with cherry blossoms, her beautiful long hair was tied in a bunch, hanging from her left shoulder, still slightly damp.

Despite his attractive appearance, there is a sense of closure in his temperament that rejects people thousands of miles away.

She asked, "Accommodation, or just a waste of time?"

His voice was also inorganically cold, as if he came to a snow-capped mountain in spring in mid-April.

"stay."

Xing Chuankui answered quickly, and Li Wu looked at the proprietress's head in surprise.

"Arrange a room?"

"Eh? What should I do? It would be more convenient to have a room, but..."

She twitched at the corner of Li Wu's clothes: "Student Li Wu, what do you think?"

"Oh, let's have one."

Li Wu stared at the proprietress's face closely, and replied casually.

The magical girl's face darkened visibly to the naked eye.

After registering, she took Li Wu away quite roughly.

The room of the two was on the second floor of the hotel. After the proprietress pointed out the location, they decided to go to the room first.

There didn't seem to be many guests in the hotel. Quite a few rooms on the second floor were vacant, and only a few of the sliding doors were locked.

"The proprietress of this store is so beautiful, her skin is snow-white, and she looks like a flower of kaolin."

"Well, it's too beautiful to be human."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, Li Wu, you've been staring at him! You must have been fascinated!"

"No, I mean it literally."

"Eh?"

Aoi Xingchuan opened her eyes wide in astonishment, but she quickly realized: "You mean, it's not human?"

"Well, my spiritual ability tells me that she should be a Snow Maiden."

Li Wu recalled the word "Snow Girl" on the proprietress's head, and asserted.

Snow girl is one of the well-known monsters in Sakurajima. According to legend, this kind of girl who lives in the deep mountains and is often accompanied by wind and snow has an amazingly beautiful appearance. Sometimes she will marry a human being, but once her husband finds out or If you reveal your secrets, you will leave, or even kill your husband.

"Really? But even if it's Snow Girl, it shouldn't be the same goal as ours."

Aoi Xingchuan sat on the laid mattress, hugged the pillow and said.

Last night, Miss Miko sent the most likely strange talk about the hot spring hotel to the "Partners of Justice" group.

Its outline is roughly that the guests who soaked in the hot spring at night witnessed a deadly black shadow with blue-faced fangs, a nose shaped like a bird's beak, and a pair of wings.

Compared with the previous Fu Sangshen and Prajna Ghost, this appearance is too iconic.

"Crow tengu or nose-taka tengu...no matter what it is, it's far from Yukino's appearance."

Li Wu agreed with the magical girl.

"However, remember that Mr. Fujiwara also knew the existence of Prajna ghost last time. What about Miss Yuki who is standing on Chaofan's side? Does she know something too?"

Aoi Xingchuan hugged the pillow and rolled around in distress: "Then should I ask the proprietress directly?"

Li Wu shook his head: "Forget it, we don't know how she reacted after being called out, so let's not get into trouble."

Their plan was to wait until night to see if the rumored shadow would appear.

"If you really can't see it, then think of a way from the proprietress."

He has seen ghosts like Yin Po, Mr. Bo, and Ru Nu who are not manufactured but can still do evil. He has also seen a kind-hearted earth-bound spirit like Fujiwara, so he naturally doesn't assume that the proprietress is a monster that can hurt people.

After reaching a consensus, Hoshikawa Aoi took out a deck of cards from her travel bag.

"Let's play UNO for two before dinner!"

"Are you here for a trip?!"

The sky soon darkened.

Aoi Xingchuan tore off the note on her face: "No more playing, let's go have dinner."

Li Wu was still not finished, and was trying to persuade her to play another game.

Just then, there was a scream from downstairs.

The two looked at each other and rushed out.

The sound came from the depths of the corridor on the first floor.

They should be the first to rush to the scene after hearing about it. The first thing they saw was a woman about 30 years old slumped in front of the door of the deepest room with a terrified expression on her face.

Inside the room are a dead body and a living person.

The head of the corpse was like a walnut hit by a heavy hammer, showing a horribly deformed state. Blood and other unknown liquids splashed on the wall like a fountain, and a fishy smell gushed out of the room like a ghost.

If Li Wu's new vampire friend saw this scene, maybe he would be able to quit blood from now on.

However, beside this miserable scene, there was another woman standing out of place.

It's the lady boss.

Her expression remained the same, her cherry-colored bathrobe was spotless, as if she saw a pile of buns instead of a grim-looking human being.

The other residents seemed to be alarmed by the scream, and two or three people had already rushed over.

The increase in the number of people seemed to give courage to the woman sitting on the ground. She pointed at the proprietress and shouted: "She is the murderer! She killed someone!"

The few people who came behind also saw the murder scene, and immediately retched with poor mental endurance.

"Hey, hey, are you kidding me?" "Did someone call the police?"

"I want to check out! What are you doing here?!"

In the midst of this noise, a petite figure squeezed out from among the residents.

She held up a black identification card and shouted: "Everyone be quiet, I am a member of the police. This is obviously a murder case. No one can leave until the investigation and evidence collection are completed!"

"Can children be policemen too?" "Is the Ninth Public Security Section a police institution? Why have I never heard of it?"

"It's troublesome now."

The magical girl whispered in his ear.

Li Wu showed a subtle expression, looking at the head of the girl who claimed to be a police officer:

【Super Power Detective】

She pointed at everyone: "The murderer may be among you!"
