The Mystery of Fangshi Edo

[Can you chat with me? 】

That day, at dusk, someone wrote such words with a pencil on the desk in the corner of the library.

Misae Niigani gave a soft "Huh?", then put down her schoolbag, first took out the eraser in the pencil case to erase the line of writing, and then found the mobile phone she forgot to take away from the belly of the table.

The battery is still sufficient, let's read the update of the manga first on the tram home.

Before putting the pencil case back into the schoolbag, she paused for a moment, and then the hand stretched toward the zipper turned into a pencil, and wrote a line of small words on the corner of the table where the original line was:

【Okay, my name is Misae, who are you? 】

Ah... no no no.

It would be too embarrassing if someone saw this kind of remark tomorrow morning, and this is vandalism no matter how you look at it, and you left your name, it would be a big crisis if the management teacher found out!

The girl hurriedly took out an eraser and erased the line of writing. Following the movement, her brown shoulder-length hair swayed along with it.

After brushing off the rubber crumbs on the table, she tidied up the stationery and put them back in her schoolbag, then turned and left without looking back.

The next day, during the lunch break, Misae Niigani came to study in the old place of the library again.

She is usually not the type who loves to study so much, she will work so hard, just because the entrance examination is coming soon.

However, she sat down in her seat, and before she took out her book, she saw two lines of writing appearing on the corner of the table.

【Thank you for talking to me, Misae.

I am also in this school, as for the title, please call me whatever you want. 】

Even though the reply letter was erased yesterday, how did this guy know my name...

Misae looked up and looked around, and saw that everyone was studying.

I don't have the feeling of being watched secretly... But ordinary people like me can't feel subtle things like 'line of sight'.

Maybe it was a prank.

Thinking of this, she thought for a while, erased those two lines, and then replied: [Then I will call you Miss Hanako. 】

To ask why... just because it is easy to think of school, such a simple reason.

In this way, Misae Niwatani and Ms. Hanako began an in-flight communication that lasted for more than a month.

From her hobbies to troubles, she said more or less, and Ms. Hanako acted like a child who knew nothing about the world, and was very interested in the books, comics and movies that Misae mentioned casually.

Misae was also happy to introduce to her, unknowingly, it seemed that she had gained a friend who talked about everything.

And it's the secret kind, which is more interesting.

[I will go to cram school next week, so I won’t be able to come to the library.

If possible, can I meet Miss Hanako?

I treat you to the milk tea shop just in front of the school. 】

[Thank you, Misae.

But no, I can't meet you.

It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't.

I never left this school.

sorry. 】

[That's it, don't apologize.

Well, although I guessed it somewhat, after all, you can still receive the message even if you erase the words,

But to be honest, I was still taken aback.

What kind of existence is Miss Hanako? 】

[What do you think I am, I am what I am.

If you don't exist, then I can't know what I am.

From now on, the library chat will come to an end.

Might go to leave a message on your desk, though.

May I? 】

……so lonely.

Misae looked at those words, her eyes lingering on the question mark at the end for a while.

Whatever Miss Hanako was, she was so lonely.

"I want to help her."

……

Ganlu Siyou Lihua regained consciousness in a trance for a while, she shook and found herself standing in the corridor on the third floor of the school.

"what?"

I fell asleep standing up?No way, no matter how confused you are, it shouldn't be to such an extent...

The setting sun obliquely flows into the building from the window, creating an illusion that it will be very warm.

But there is a chill behind Ganlu Temple.

Because it was really too quiet here, as if I was the only one left in the whole teaching building.

She looked around and decided to leave first, so she walked down the stairs downstairs.

One, two, three...

"How many floors have I gone down?"

The stairs leading to the lower floor seem to be endless. After turning and descending the steps repeatedly, Ganlu Temple returned to the corridor, looked out the window, and found that it was still on the third floor.

"is that a lie……"

However, the third floor?

She showed a worried expression.

With my own physique, as long as I landed on the grass well, I should be fine, at most it would be a little sprained...

I don't have my schoolbag or mobile phone with me, and I don't know what time it is. If I go too late, my mother will be worried.

After cheering himself up, Ganlu Temple walked to the window.

"Hmm...why can't you push it away?"

Obviously not locked.

If she's ever played a horror game about multiple locked spaces, she should know that it's called 'as if fixed with space'.

"In this case... I will apologize in the future, so..."

She closed her eyes, took a step back, and punched—

"boom!"

"Ah, it hurts!"

Clutching his aching hands, Ganlusi bent down.

Like hitting something made of steel!Will the school really be equipped with such advanced glass?It hurts so much, it doesn't look like a dream!

After blowing on her red hands, the girl stood still and sighed, then looked at the setting sun outside the window.

...Speaking of which, how long has it been since I got here?Why doesn't the sun's position seem to change at all?

Obviously, this period of time is very short, and it will soon be dark.

Looking at the evening scenery in the distance, she suddenly remembered something.

"Ah, yes..."

Ganlu Temple murmured.

"I am, I want to come here."

After thinking of this, the girl who was still too nervous to make too much noise mustered up her courage. She looked at the corridors on both sides, and then put her hands around her mouth to make a loudspeaker: "Misae, you Is it here!?"

Yes, the reason why I came to this place was to find Misae.

After clarifying her purpose, her gaze became firmer, and she began to search carefully from one classroom to another. About halfway through the search, she suddenly heard the sound of a piano and someone singing along with it from not far away.

"Misae?"

Ganlu Temple hurried to the door of the music room, but as she opened the door, the sound inside stopped abruptly, and it seemed that there was no one there, only her own voice echoed.

Strange, obviously the sound is here...

The girl searched for a while, planning to go to the next classroom first, but when she turned her head, she was startled by the scene in front of her and screamed out.

——On the wall of the music room in front of him, black words were written densely and densely.

Those words repeat the same words.

"Don't take anything from me."

"Bad guy."

……

"'If you want to get her back, come see me at dusk.'——This is the words that someone found on the desk of Ganlu Temple You Lihua after she disappeared."

In the dimly lit classroom, Fang Shi Yangming tapped the blackboard, and the words he just said appeared on it.

"Due to some reasons, I can't appear in front of people now, but in order to save people, I must find a breakthrough to solve the current situation, so Mr. Taichang, I need your wisdom."

Oribe Taishang smiled modestly: "Wisdom is too flattering to me, and I don't know if I can help. Then without further ado, please tell me all the information you have."

"Okay, now I will make a hypothesis," Fang Shi Yangming said, and clicked on the blackboard again, "Just like what is described in many graphic novels--'negative emotions of the human heart' will breed What human beings oppose, we call it 'spell spirit' for the time being."

"Is it similar to the setting of 'filth'? I understand." Tai Chang nodded, "There are many types of this kind of thing. Please talk about it in detail."

So Fang Shi Yangming told him all the information about the curse spirit. The reason why he said it so lightly was due to Shinnai Myoshin—the stern-mouthed Lord Raccoon who actually protects his followers more than anyone else. After waking up from the dream, blur this part of Tai Chang's memory.

"At the beginning, I wondered if it was the resentment of a former student after the death, or some collective negative emotions that bred the curse spirit, and then launched an attack on the students. But if this is the case, based on it The efficiency is too slow for the ability to completely disappear with almost no trace."

It would be great if we could know the specific ability of this curse spirit, but the current information is really too little.

"And if it's true what Mr. Fang Shi said, low-level curse spirits don't have much intelligence, then they will definitely kill their prey immediately. How about a curse spirit that can communicate with people through text?" It is also very powerful." Tai Chang added, "In my opinion, if the negative emotions in the school are really enough to produce such a level of curse spirit, it should have been messed up long ago. The victims in schools all over the world The numbers will get to the point where no one dares to go to school."

Ah, that seems to be the case.

If you think about it carefully, there are too many contradictions.

"By the way, I would like to ask, has Mr. Fang Shi been in contact with the curse spirit recently?"

"That's right... Oh, I understand." Fang Shi Yangming quickly understood the meaning of his words, and stretched out his hand to support his forehead, "Hey, indeed, this possibility is the highest."

The opponent this time is not a magic spirit with a high hidden ability at all.

In other words, it is not a curse spirit at all.

"Then let's sort it out from the beginning." Oribe Taishang said, and walked to the blackboard, "First of all, the research object this time has the following characteristics--will communicate with people through in-flight communication, and meeting them requires At 'twilight' no one knows where it hides people, and most importantly... it all happens in schools."

Fang Shi Yangming nodded, and then asked in his heart: "Master Raccoon, it seems that a god with jurisdiction including 'school' and 'twilight' has appeared, can you feel him?"

【"The breath is too weak, almost as if it doesn't exist."】 Raccoon replied, 【"And these two areas of jurisdiction have nothing to do with me at all. There is no conflict between gods and gods, and I will not intervene."】

"Understood...then can you at least insinuate me?"

【"What's busy?"】

"Neither I nor Tai Chang will be directly involved in this incident, but please help me contact an expert who can solve this kind of thing."

The author has something to say:

The pre-acquisition of the book when people are killed has been slightly changed.
