[Psychic Detective Yakumo] One hundred ways to tease cats

The two mugs were placed on the table, and Yakumo raised an eyebrow while staring at the steaming mugs.

"It's hot cocoa."

"Drinking this in this damn hot weather?"

Yakumo said dissatisfied.As soon as I stopped crying, Yakumo began to return to his original appearance. I knew that even if I was pretending, I would have to pretend for a while.I went back to the kitchen, took out a large handful of ice cubes from the refrigerator and threw them into Yakumo's glass.

"Iced cocoa."

Yakumo smiled wryly.After taking a sip of cocoa, he said "oh" with a surprised expression, then stared at the cup.

"It's just a cup of ordinary cocoa." I rolled my eyes, "Don't worry, I won't test your medicine on a whim."

Yakumo nodded, and continued to bury his head in his diary.

Suddenly there was the sound of an object vibrating - it was Yakumo's cell phone on the table, but Yakumo ignored it.

"Yakumo, your phone is ringing." I fell on the other side of the bed and said.

"It's Mr. Goto." I took the phone out of boredom, and I poked his waist.

Yakumo avoided my fingers, and his eyes continued to stay on the diary.

"Aren't you going to pick it up?" I raised my index finger, aiming at the next destination.

"He's been calling since just now, and the frequency is bothering me. It's better to let him use his brain occasionally." Yakumo grabbed my restless hand and continued to bury his head in the diary, saying.

To put it so nicely, in fact, you just find it troublesome.

At this time, Yakumo's hand suddenly stopped on a certain page of the diary, and I also peeked at the contents of the diary from the opposite side of him.There was no writing on that page, only a picture of a black line wrapped around a cross.

"Does this pattern have anything to do with her suicide?" I asked, tapping the pattern with my free hand.

"I don't know, but it seems to be related to her being raped/violated."

The date of the diary is the day she was raped/violent.

That's the case, so it seems that there is indeed a connection.

I lay on the opposite side of Yakumo, silently watching Yakumo continue to turn the page.From the page with the pattern on it, Yakumo's expression became more and more solemn.I understood that the events of that day changed Rika's life forever.

It must have been a tormented day!Just imagining the pain makes my lower abdomen tighten.However, the pain imagined by others is far less than the slightest bit of pain experienced by people who have actually experienced it.

Soon, Yakumo closed the diary.

"..." He looked at me strangely for a while, then suddenly turned his head away, "How boring are you?" He said through gritted teeth.Then, as if remembering something, I suddenly let go of my hand.

"So," I didn't get up from the bed in a hurry, but observed his reddish ears, and said slowly, "Are you feeling shy because you saw something you shouldn't see?"

"You shameless woman." Yakumo rolled his eyes, "I have something to ask you."

I puffed up my cheeks and looked at him.Do you want to see me cry again?

"Don't show such a disgusted expression, it won't be difficult, it's just a little troublesome."

well!The sadness of women is that they cannot refuse categorically under such circumstances!

Makoto, Shinichi, and Yuya sat in the same seats as that night, and the boss stood at the bar just like that night.

Goto stood at the door of the bar with his arms folded, looking at everyone present calmly, with no fear on his face.Ishii couldn't help thinking to himself: Isn't Officer Goto afraid?

The situation in front of him reminded Ishii of the process of exorcising the spirit last time, and his legs immediately trembled uncontrollably.Goto seemed to see through Ishii's mind, and hit Ishii's forehead with an iron fist.Presumably, Ishii's skull will definitely have a hole in it soon.

"Then let's begin!"

Shen Shan stood in the middle of the store and clapped his hands, as if everyone was about to perform a play together.

"A few days ago, everyone here experienced a supernatural phenomenon, right?"

Shenshan asked everyone, but the group just looked at each other without answering.But Shenshan didn't care, and continued talking.

"I think everyone has heard that Mami-san has been missing since last night. She suddenly came from a secret room..."

Shen Shan stopped talking here, and walked towards the three of them slowly.Makoto's face was bloodless, and her body didn't move at all; Shinichi was smoking with displeasure, and Yuya's legs were trembling subconsciously.

"...disappeared out of nowhere."

Kamiyama said in a tone like a Kabuki chanting a classic line.

"A person disappears out of thin air? Is there such a ridiculous thing in the world?"

Shinichi flicked the ash into the ashtray.It is only natural for Shinichi to have such a reaction, most people would have the same idea as him.

"I'm not lying. This was done by the evil spirit with strong hatred. Someone can testify. Mr. **, am I right?" Shenshan looked at Ishii with sharp eyes.

"Ah, yes, Mami-san is indeed..."

Ishii hesitated for a long time and could only squeeze out these few words.

"Yes, is it true?"

The boss at the bar exclaimed.

"It is an indisputable fact that a woman is missing, but I don't remember when the police agreed that evil spirits can make a person invisible for no reason."

Goto raised his voice while keeping his arms crossed.

"Officer Goto is from the standpoint of the police, so it's only natural that he has to say that."

Shenshan laughed.In Ishii's eyes, Shenshan's smile was full of provocation.

"Damn, don't spread rumors and make trouble!"

Goto looked straight ahead, but his voice was only audible to Ishii.But what Goto said was correct, the police would never openly agree with the evil spirit causing people to disappear.

"I'll continue. Regardless of what the police think, but I think Miss Mami's disappearance is caused by evil spirits. So I think it has something to do with the supernatural events that everyone experienced here. If I The idea is not wrong, everyone is now in a very dangerous state.”

Shenshan looked back at the boss at the bar.The boss looked down at his feet, not daring to look directly at the sacred mountain.

"What are you trying to say? What you are doing now is no different from religious money-making!"

Shen Yi stared at Shenshan, and said mockingly.

"I won't do that."

"Ghosts will believe it! Who would obediently admit that they are a liar?"

What Shen Yi said was not unreasonable.If someone asks, "Are you a liar?", no one will honestly answer, "Yes, I am a liar."

"You can't help it if you don't believe me, but this is an indisputable fact."

"Stupid!"

Shinichi said disdainfully.Regarding this, Shenshan could only smile wryly.

"Here I want to ask you one thing. I don't know if any unusual phenomena have happened around you?"

Hearing this, everyone became restless.Their reaction can be said to be a complete affirmation of what Shenshan said.

"What happened?"

Shenshan's eyes slowly swept over everyone's faces.

"Woman... There is a woman..."

Yuya, who was the youngest, suddenly made a hoarse voice.

"shut up!"

Shinichi immediately stopped Yuya from continuing.However, Yuya completely ignored Shinichi's order.

"There was a woman in the room looking at me and saying 'Go to hell'!"

Yu also crouched on the ground with his head in his arms.Ishii can understand Yuya's mood very well.

"Actually... today I received a call with no caller ID, and someone on the phone said 'Go to hell'!"

Did the same thing happen to Miss Makoto?

"Actually, I also..."

The boss then spoke.All eyes on the scene were cast on him.

"Yesterday I saw a woman in the closet and heard the same thing as everyone else."

The boss looked at the cabinet next to the toilet.Unexpectedly, everyone encountered the same supernatural phenomenon.That's right, it must be evil spirits!

"So that's how it is. In this way, j□j will be inseparable."

Kamiyama looked up at the ceiling.

"Mr. Shenshan, do you have a bottom line?"

"Hmm! A few days ago, I happened to see a female ghost in a certain apartment building. She has a very strong and deep hatred. Her name is Sawaguchi Rika."

"Hey, just wait for me!"

Goto, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his beak from the side.

"You don't mean to say that Rika Sawaguchi is the reason for this series of supernatural phenomena!"

Goto said as he approached Mount Kami.

"You know about her! Just like the police officer said, the supernatural phenomena that happened around you were all caused by Sawaguchi Rika."

"Stop talking stupid! She has nothing to do with this!"

Goto growled.But Kamiyama stared straight at Goto without changing his expression.

"I'm not kidding, her soul is still lingering in this world. Can you see her pain and hatred?"

Then he lowered his head at the bottom of Shenshan, and opened his eyes with his hands, as if he was taking something down.

"I can see it."

What Shenshan took down was a pair of contact lenses.When he raised his head again, his eyes were dyed a fiery red.

No, I can't stand it!

"Wow--"

Ishii screamed.

"your eyes……"

Even Goto couldn't hide his surprise.

"My eyes can see the souls of the dead."

The audience was completely silent, and no one could speak.Shenshan showed a wry smile and continued.

"I don't think it was accidental that all of you gathered here that night, because one of you was the main person who caused her hatred. Of course, I didn't ask that person to admit it now, but he should already know that It’s just that the truth shouldn’t be buried.”

"you
