So, a group of people moved to the police station.

Police officer Jipu, that is, the serious criminal policeman who used to be annoyed at seeing Luanbu, but later turned really fragrant: "No! What a joke, let's not talk about that stinky brat, don't think that anyone can easily interfere with us Police work!"

Kunikida and Nakajima Atsushi couldn't help taking a few steps away from the police officer's lion roar.

"I'm very sorry, I know our request is very rude..."

"If you know it's very rude, don't talk about it!"

"Excuse me, can you show me the monitoring of these streets?" Po quietly approached the policewoman who was managing the monitoring at the table and asked.

"Hey, people over there!"

"Because you guys are at the end of your rope," Poe turned his head and glanced at him. Although he was short of breath due to slight social fear, his eyes under bangs were still sharp, "The victim has already protested outside the police station, put it on If you don’t care, you will block the city government sooner or later.”

"Er..." Jipu was speechless.

"And according to my observation, you haven't made any progress. How about trusting the detective agency?"

Jipu shook his eyebrows, glanced at Atsushi Nakajima, whom he had seen before, who was following Ranpo, and then at the tired-looking team members in the office: "It's better that you really have two brushes."

"Of course! Although I can't say that I can definitely win against Ranbu-kun, I am one of the few who can compete with Ranbu-kun!" Poe randomly picked a seat and sat down, "Please gather the information towards me."

"senior……"

"Do as he says." Minura sighed.

A mountain of information quickly filled the table in front of Po, and a police officer was on the side explaining the current progress of the police to him.

"It has been basically confirmed that it is a serial disappearance case, but the place of disappearance and the missing person basically have nothing in common. To be honest, we have not investigated anything..."

"Hey! How are you talking!" Jipu patted the table from the side.

"Sorry! That's right, we are still in the stage of sorting out the whereabouts of the victims!"

Kunikida: "This guy really is a newcomer to the workplace..."

"Well, show me the results of your sorting." Poe didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic.

After checking the information for 10 minutes in silence, he finally understood why the police were so troublesome this time.

There are more than 100 cases of disappearances, the victims are all locals, the missing places have nothing in common, and the missing people have nothing in common, ranging from teenagers to old people, from commercial streets to suburbs, from day to night.

All of them disappeared suddenly when there were no surveillance cameras to capture them, and then disappeared without a trace.

"The face captured by the camera does not show any signs of forgery. It is confirmed that the person came out of the camera and then disappeared. There is no information about the influx of human organs in the black market. It seems like the world has evaporated." Poe murmured.

"The only strange thing is that some of the missing people are in the middle of work, and they suddenly put down what they are doing and turn around and leave."

"It's like losing your soul."

"Like the legend of the Piper..."

"Could it be someone with supernatural powers?" Atsushi Nakajima asked.

"It's hard to say, because there are still many people who disappeared at the same time, or the two missing people disappeared within 5 minutes, but the location spanned half of Yokohama." Poe murmured, "The key is how the people behind it did it. , and how he screened the targets."

"Could it be that Hell Girl did it..." a young female police officer whispered.

"Kato, you're talking nonsense again."

"What is a hell girl?" Poe asked, turning his head.

"Uh, it's an urban legend that's been very popular in the small circle recently. Some people say it's true, and some people say it's false, but I saw someone say that they really send people they hate to hell." Kato explained.

"Let me see." Poe leaned over, and Kato quickly opened the website of the forum, "This is it."

"Hell Girls Are Real!" "

1l: I saw it with my own eyes. She gave me a scarecrow and said that it could help that person experience the pain of hell.

2l: Haha, really, is she good-looking?

3l: To tell you the truth, she is very good-looking, completely my type, but when I saw her red eyes, my soul seemed to be frozen.

4l: There are a lot of posts like this recently, did you come from the group?

5l: Hands up, I tried logging into this site, but it didn't work, so it's fake.

6l: Ah, at [-]:[-] midnight, I have also logged in, it doesn't work at all.

7l: Hellgirls are real.

8l: Because the person I resented is gone, I doubt he is going to hell, hell girl is doing well.

9l: Here we go again.

10l: I can prove that XXXX is the last number of the ID card of the person I hate, and he has already gone to hell.

11l: If it is true, is it really okay for you to just say it like this?

12l: What are you afraid of? The police can’t possibly arrest me because of this. I have an alibi. It was the Hell Girl who did it, not me.

"Then I clicked on this person's profile and found that the avatar he used on the water forum was himself, and this person was the younger brother of missing person No. [-]." Kato explained softly.

"There will always be this kind of idiot who thinks he played some kind of game such as fox fairy or pen fairy, and his relatives happen to disappear, so they use this kind of talk to catch people's attention." Jipu shook his head.

Poe looked at Kato: "Do you know about the hell girl?"

"Hey, don't ignore me."

"Yes, I am also a supernatural lover in private, and I often post on this forum. There is a post about Hell Girl that suddenly appeared in the past month. The content is probably, as long as you log in to the website of Hell Communication at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, write The name of the person who hates, the hell girl will make this person feel the pain of hell."

Atsushi Nakajima: "But the legend doesn't mention people disappearing."

"Yes."

Poe inquired about the legends about the folk customs of hell in Japan on his mobile phone, and murmured: "Time..."

"Eh?"

"According to the folklore of hell in Japan, everyone who goes to hell will be sentenced, because the dead in hell cannot die again, so they will be tortured to death and resurrected again, life and death, until the sentence expires."

Jipu: "So these missing persons may have been captured and tortured by the hell girl? But why, what is the benefit of doing this to the hell girl? What is the motive for her actions? It can't be that the legendary monster escaped haha... Hey, why are your expressions so dignified?"

"Youkai...?" Kunikida and Nakajima Atsushi remembered what he told about youkai when they hunted down the revived people.

But is it really possible?

"What did you think of?" Poe watched their sudden changes.

Atsushi Nakajima hesitated for a while, looked at Kunikida, and after getting the latter's nod, he told Poe what he had heard from Rito.

"A monster, it's hard to believe, unless you see it with your own eyes." Poe touched his chin, "As for now, I can't be sure that Hell Girl did it, but this is a very interesting starting point, please put this People, that is, the younger brother of the missing person, please come here, if he really saw the hell girl, what should he know."

Not long after, this stinky brother who spoke on the forum was successfully invited to the police station for tea.

Surprisingly, although this man spoke arrogantly on the Internet, in reality he seemed to be a social fear nerd who was not good at words. Under the interrogation of the experienced criminal police, he was so frightened that he recruited everything.

"I really saw the hell girl. She gave me a scarecrow. As long as you pull the scarecrow, the resentful person will experience the pain of hell."

"Ah? What is missing, I don't know that he will disappear, it's true!"

"I thought I was dreaming at first, but when I woke up, a scarecrow really appeared on my hand..."

"It's true, I really don't know anything, just like a fox fairy... Yes, it's the same as those games of fox fairy and pen fairy. You can't say that because I played this kind of game once, you will decide me sin!"

Poe listened to the man's speech outside the interrogation room, and fell into deep thought from time to time. Suddenly, he seemed to notice something, and approached the microphone and said, "Mr. Police Officer, please ask him to open his collar wider."

The police officer in the interrogation room was a little embarrassed when he heard the words. He looked across at A Zhai who was a little timid but trying to be upright, and pointed to A Zhai's neckline.

A Zhai's face changed, and he grabbed his neck suddenly, and now even the police officer noticed that something was wrong with him.

"Say, what is this?"

Atsushi Nakajima had sharp eyes, and whispered, "Posang, I seem to have seen that tattoo on that clerk before."

Poe nodded. At this moment in the interrogation room, Ah Zhai couldn't bear the pressure and had no choice but to explain the reason for the tattoo.

"After pulling the rope on the scarecrow, this came out of him."

According to Atsushi Nakajima, the clerk also had this on him before.

mark?mark?What are the conditions for the realization of different abilities?

Poe silently remembered this, and said to Jipu: "The police officer, please look around for the missing person again. Is there anyone with a similar tattoo suddenly appearing on his body?"

Ji Pu's eyes were strange, but this case was in front of him, so he couldn't say anything, so he sent his subordinates to find someone to ask again.

Because of the large number of people and the wide range of investigations, it takes a lot of time.

Poe simply waited for the results at the police station. At this time, he started to watch the last surveillance video of the missing person one by one, trying to find similarities. Work.

As time passed, Poe was always sitting in his seat in the office, playing the surveillance video at five times the speed.

People came and went around, and the number of people in the office gradually decreased.

It wasn't until the moon climbed to the top of the branch that Atsushi Nakajima lay unconscious on the table and almost fell to the ground, then he suddenly woke up: "What time is it?"

"11:40." Poe glanced at the time and said casually, the surveillance video was still playing in front of him.

Atsushi Nakajima wiped the drool from his mouth, stood up, and found that there were still several criminal police officers in the office, including Minoura, who were not off work: "Um, don't you guys have to get off work?"

Jipu shook his head, with deep fatigue on his face, holding black coffee in his hand: "This incident is being watched by the higher authorities, how can I sleep at this moment."

At this time, the last volume of the video played at five times speed was finally finished. Poe sighed and fell behind the seat.

"No."

"Nothing?" Kunikida looked over.

"The missing people, I looked at the surveillance on all possible routes around the place where they disappeared, and it turned out that there were none. They really disappeared out of thin air."

Atsushi Nakajima blinked and blinked, and then looked at the video tapes piled up next to Poe in a reactionary manner, with a horrified expression: "Have you finished watching it?"

"Well, it's just a matter of finding a specific person in the crowd, that's easy."

Hearing this, a question mark popped up in Atsushi Nakajima's head, is it simple? Maybe it has no technical content, but his eyes are already blurred.

The amount that I and Kunikida have seen combined is not as efficient as Poe alone.

"Perhaps in disguise?"

"No, I've noticed this, probably not."

"How could such a good living person disappear out of thin air." Jipu murmured, "It's like a ghost."

At this time his phone rang.

"Yes, this is Cipu."

"Is that really the case? No, thank you for your hard work. Let me tell them to continue the investigation tomorrow."

He hung up the phone with a complicated expression: "It's really as you expected. Many people have that kind of tattoo on their bodies, but they haven't found any. I'll ask them to expand the search tomorrow."

"No need, I probably know that most of them have contacted Hell Girls. After all, it is not uncommon to make people resentful out of thin air. It is really necessary to confirm each one. The workload is too heavy and it is unnecessary."

"...That's true." Ji Pu's eyes were stained with deep fatigue, and suddenly he punched the table, making a loud noise.

Atsushi Nakajima lost all sleepiness and stared at him with wide eyes.

"Ah, I'm sorry," Jipu covered his eyes with one hand, with a heavy look under his palm: "What's the matter, I can't arrest this urban legend."

The atmosphere became tense for a moment.

"It wouldn't be a speculative novel if the murderer was a monster or something who couldn't be apprehended," said Poe suddenly.

The others didn't understand what he meant, and Poe had no intention of explaining. He took out his phone and glanced at the time: "It's almost there, Kunikida-san, the person who helped you sort out the information before is a hacker, right?"

"um, yes."

"How's the level?"

"Very good, the level can be regarded as one of the best, what's the matter?"

"I'll explain later, please ask him to track down the URL that tried to track Hell Communication at 12 midnight."

Kunikida quickly understood and called Tianshan Hanabou.

At this time, Tianshan Hanabou was at his most energetic. After hearing Kunikida's request, he didn't ask much. He found the URL in the post and looked at the time on the computer at the same time.

After the second hand passed 12 midnight, Tianshan Hanabou immediately noticed that the code of this website was activated, and at the same time began to quickly implement the intrusion, but at the same time, the other party reacted very quickly, decisively abandoned this webpage, and violently cleared all traces, like a lizard cutting off its tail Generally escaped.

Just when Tian Shanhuadai thought that the other party was fleeing without a fight, countless URLs appeared in the post at the same time. His mind froze, and he suddenly realized that the other party had copied countless sub-webpages, mixed with fake and real URL codes , cannot be traced at all.

Soon, after 1 minute, all URLs disappeared completely.

After a few seconds of silence, Tianshan Hanabou called Kunikida:

"Sorry, it failed. The other party was already prepared. This webpage only existed for one minute, but it created countless fake URLs. It is basically impossible to trace back the IP address of the person behind it within one minute."

"Is the opponent strong?"

"No, it's just that his method is too ingenious. Let me put it this way. In fact, the code of this webpage is not complicated, but every second of the other party is like a Trojan horse. It generates fake sub-pages in this way, which is difficult to find. Which website is real, you can look at the countless hell communication URLs that have appeared on the Internet."

"Is there nothing you can do with your supernatural power?" Kunikida frowned tightly. The ability of the flower bag made his intrusion speed more than ten times that of other hackers. If even he can't do anything, then basically there is no need to count on other hackers.

"If the existence of this website is extended to 5 minutes, it is still possible." Huadai said.

"That's it, thanks for your hard work." Kunikida hung up the phone, looked at the expectant eyes of other people, especially Police Officer Minoura, and shook his head heavily, "No."

Still nothing.

Atsushi Nakajima couldn't help drooping his shoulders, feeling tired all over his body.

"No, on the contrary, we have obtained the biggest harvest so far." Poe suddenly stood up, without the slightest dejection on his expression, but full of excitement that was eager to try. He stepped on the seat with his arms open:

"The serial disappearance of more than 100 people, unknown urban legends, acquaintances who hate each other, is there any better material than this? I have a hunch that as long as this incident is solved, I will definitely use it to create the best The novel! At that time, I will definitely be able to write a case that makes Lord Luanbu bow down! Hahahahahahaha!"

Everyone stared dumbfounded at his sudden nervousness, Minura turned to look at Kunikida and Nakajima Atsushi, his eyes said, "Is your detective agency all weirdos like this?" "It's really hard to take care of these people."

Kunikida: No, it's not that we don't have it. Most of us are normal...except Dazai Ranpo and Dr. Yosano who saw patients in orthopedics.

"Well... Posang, what do you mean by the biggest gain?" Atsushi Nakajima asked tremblingly.

"Ah? Didn't I say it before, if the murderer is a monster, there is no way to arrest it, so it can't be called a mystery novel at all."

Everyone: No, it's not a mystery novel, it's reality.

"What, haven't you reacted yet? Didn't the hacker successfully find the webpage before and fought for a round?"

"That is to say..." Atsushi Nakajima finally came to his senses, "The one hidden behind the communication from hell..."

"That's right, it's human beings," Poe's mouth twitched. "This serial disappearance involving 100 people is not behind monsters or intangible things like urban legends, but computer technology." Human beings who invented this kind of human beings.”

"Since a human being can be arrested, everything that happens will leave traces."

……

"I just said, it's about time they will notice." Husheng Xingluo stretched his waist, and the computer in front of him stayed on the page of hell communication, "Fortunately, this crawler was already done before, otherwise Tian Shan almost got caught The flower bag was caught."

[What should I do, host qwq, they must have noticed that it is humans and not monsters who are behind the scenes! 】

"Don't panic as soon as something happens, my lord." Hu Shengxing Luo turned his pen in a good mood, "The current situation is still within my expectations, or rather, it's just to make them aware of it." It was specially arranged in Yokohama."

【What's the meaning? 】

"The lie of the hell girl is not just to lead out of hell," Hu Shengxingluo hooked his lips, "There are still two worlds waiting, and it is too slow to come one by one."

"Let me make good use of their wisdom."
