[Psychic Detective Yakumo] One hundred ways to tease cats

People who have heard of it, will there be any rumors? "I said.

"This..." The expression on Gao Gang's face was completely stiff.

"Teacher, I have some opinions on Miki's condition, do you want to hear it?" I said.

"The teacher is not a doctor..." Thinking that I changed the subject, Takaoka smiled in relief.

"It's hard to say," I laughed, "Have you ever heard of 'bend over'?"

"Bending down?" Gao Gang's heart rose again.

"Yes, 'bend down'," I said with a smile. Others probably thought we were talking about an interesting topic. "Human beings who die with grievances and resentment will attach to living beings with similar physical signs when they were alive. Say something through the mouth of a stranger... If I were the one who started it, I would probably want to hear it... What do you think? Teacher Gao Gang." I deliberately emphasized the word 'teacher'.

"However, it's not convenient to talk about it in this place, let's change the place." Gao Gang stood up calmly.

SIX

After finally reaching the abandoned house, Yakumo turned the horn lock, but the door was locked. However, it was open yesterday, but he had the key in his hand, which meant that there were other keys.

Yakumo opened the lock and entered the room. Compared with last night, it was much brighter, but it did not reduce the cold and strange atmosphere at all.He walked through the corridor to the closed room at the end.This room was also locked and chained and locked with a combination padlock.Yakumo transferred the password to 7483, and it matched as expected. This was the number he wrote down when the lock was opened last night.

Perhaps it was because there were no windows in the room, so he had to rely on the flashlight to see the whole room clearly.Yakumo pulled open the bed in the corner of the room, and as expected, a metal floor appeared under the bed—more precisely, it was a door.He didn't expect the door to be unlocked, so he opened the door, and heavy dust flew all over the room.

Yakumo searched the basement with a flashlight, but it was almost invisible, so it seemed that he had to go inside to find out... After making up his mind, Yakumo climbed down the vertically extending wooden ladder, and the wood creaked.

Yakumo climbed down the stairs carefully, but slipped on the way and fell to the basement in one breath.The impact of falling to the ground caused him to distort his face in pain, but a pungent rancid smell made him forget the pain immediately. He held his breath and covered his mouth and nose with his hands.

Yakumo picked up the flashlight that fell on the ground to illuminate the surroundings, trying to find the source of the rotten smell, but found countless black spots on a wall. He slowly approached the wall, staring at the spots .

"How could such a thing happen..." Yakumo couldn't help but let out a voice of surprise.

The scars on the wall are obviously someone's scratches, and each scar is covered with red and black stains. I'm afraid it's someone who knows it's futile but still wants to escape from here, grabbing the wall again and again , even though the fingertips were soaked in blood and the flesh of the fingers was peeled off, they still clung to what was left by the wall without giving up.

Yakumo's fingertips gently caressed these spots.

Suddenly, a cold object dripped on Yakumo's neck. He looked up with a flashlight and found two pipes stretched across the ceiling, probably water pipes, dripping water from their joints.

The woman imprisoned here may have lived on these waters for several days, but without these two water pipes, maybe the time of my suffering could be shortened.Ironically, the waters that gave her hope also tormented her deeply.

She is not afraid of anything in this room, but wants to escape from here, but the question is who imprisoned her here for what purpose...

Yakumo, who crawled out of the basement, quickly walked through the corridor and left the abandoned house.Facing the cold wind gave him a sense of survival.He can be sure that this is the place where Yuri is imprisoned, but there is no conclusive evidence-the body.The most important corpse wasn't there, someone—probably someone who imprisoned Yuri moved my corpse.

"You...you...what are you doing here?"

The voice from behind instantly paralyzed his thoughts.That familiar hoarse voice, the person who has the key and can freely enter and exit this abandoned house-workmate, Yamane.

Yamane was still flushed with drunkenness, with a towel hanging around his neck and a rusty shovel in his hand.

"It's over!"

Yakumo murmured, and he began to think about how to escape from here.

Takaoka and I came to the top floor of the four-story school building. With the strong wind blowing, we walked to the waist-thick railing.

"Where should I start..."

Takaoka looked up at the sky rendered purple, looking at the floating clouds, and muttered to himself.

"You... you... are looking for this."

Yamane took out a digital camera from his trousers pocket and handed it to Yakumo.

"Fall...fall there."

Yamane pointed to a forest about ten meters away from the abandoned house.After thanking Yakumo, he took the camera, which may be the camera used by Yuichi to take commemorative photos.

And electricity.Yakumo turned on the power, and the image was reflected on the camera's screen.It seems to be somewhere in an izakaya, and several people are drinking and partying.Yakumo glanced at the photos quickly, and after viewing about ten photos, a photo with the abandoned house as the background appeared.The first one is Yuichi, the second one is Kazuhiko and Miki, and the next one is a close-up of Miki's timid profile.In the depths of the next photo, a certain man's gesture of trying to hide in the corner of the room is reflected. He seems to be dragging something, because it is too dark to see clearly, but it is probably Yuri's body.

"No way……"

Yakumo's expression froze instantly, and the next second he flew away at lightning speed.Yamane roared from behind, but he didn't have time to pay attention to him.

While running wildly, Yakumo dialed Haruka's mobile phone, but Haruka seemed to be turned off, and the phone could not be connected.

Yakumo returned to his place, but Haruka was nowhere to be seen.He also went to the cafeteria on the way back, but Haruka was not there either.

Yakumo yelled in the empty room.If he had realized it earlier, Haruka would not have been allowed to act alone. It seems that he had to turn over the school to find it.But is it too late?He's completely helpless now...

Suddenly, Yakumo felt that someone was standing behind him, and when he turned around, he found a girl standing there.That was Haruka's older sister——Ayaka.

"Would you like to lead the way for me?"

"Teacher, j□j students are not the behavior of a well-dressed beast." I flexibly dodged Takaoka's pursuit.

"I remember you said that I am worse than a beast."

Takaoka grabbed my wrist while answering.

"I'm sorry, but you have to die. Suicide by jumping off the roof, just like Ichihashi-san."

Takaoka jumped over the fence on the roof first, and then was about to pull me out of the fence; I stabbed the needle in my hand with my backhand, and broke free from his hand again.

"Teacher," I smiled slightly, "Now, isn't your arm a little numb?"

"You...!" Gao Gang looked at me in astonishment, "What did you do?"

"It's just a little high-concentration anesthetic," I said with a smile. "It's a pity that the teacher has never studied medicine. Can you tell me about your beast now?"

"It was an accident. One day, she suddenly said that she was pregnant and confessed everything to my wife. How could I allow this kind of thing to happen. She didn't abide by the agreement and broke the rules of the game! You also tortured it? We There was a violent argument, and in a fit of rage I beat her, and she didn't move...but I didn't mean to kill her, but she was the one who broke the rules! Do you understand?"

"...What a man who is not as good as a beast," I shook my head and sighed, "Teacher thinks that I am not prepared at all for following you like this?"

"What...!" Gao Gang closed his mouth after seeing the person coming.

"She wasn't dead then."

Yakumo, who did not know when to arrive, said with a dirty face.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Takaoka seemed surprised by Yakumo's sudden appearance, he looked directly at Yakumo and raised his voice, showing a look of nothing to do with him.

"You should have also noticed that there are traces of her trying to escape in that basement."

Takaoka didn't respond to his words.

"I'm afraid that after you beat her, seeing her motionless, you thought you had killed her, so you threw her away in that basement in a panic. She just fainted at the time, but she was indeed still alive."

"You lied like that, what evidence do you have..."

"Stop pretending!" Yakumo raised his voice angrily. "You can also see that there are countless spots on the wall of the basement, which are the scratches left by her eager to escape from there. Dead people can't do this kind of thing."

Takaoka's shoulders heaved violently, and he was at a loss.

"That student named Ichihashi Yuichi was also killed by you."

"What evidence do you have..."

"Of course I have the evidence. I should have found out earlier. You seemed to say that Shiqiao committed suicide at the station. This is very suspicious. How can you be sure that he committed suicide? He didn't leave any suicide note, and the police will That incident was treated as an accident, and it would have been impossible to conclude that he committed suicide if he had not witnessed his death with his own eyes."

"Why do I have to kill him?" Takaoka retorted in pain.

I understand Takaoka's reason for killing Yuichi.

"After you locked Yuri in the basement, you felt relieved for a while, but then you heard that the abandoned house would be demolished and you were very anxious. If her body was found, everything would be exposed. So you sneaked into the abandoned house at night, wanting to moved the body elsewhere, but encountered
