The Girl and Her Sword [Comprehensive + Sword III]

The place where Ogita Hanaaki died was not far from the shrine.

So Qingwu rushed towards the shrine with his body when he saw the fire, and arrived at the shrine within a few ups and downs, but even so, most of the shrine was burned.

Before his death, Ogita Huazhang said that he would tell her the location of Crescent Moon. He would not fail to think of the possibility of his own death. However, he does not seem to be a person who would ask for his life based on this, so the answer can only be...

That suicide note.

The appearance of the suicide note appeared in Qingwu's mind.

Judging by the standards of normal people, that suicide note didn't look like a suicide note at all.

There is only one waka in the thick stack of paper, and there is only one kana or Chinese character on each paper. If it is a calligraphy work, the kana written in it is also crooked, which cannot be called calligraphy at all.

At first, Jingjitang and Qingwu thought it was the hidden characters in the book, but when they overlapped some of the characters, they could see what he did to Tsume.However, after what he said, Qingwu felt that it was far more than that.

So what else could it be?

a map.

A map that guides Qingwu to where Sanriyue is hiding.

Qing Wu held Ogida in her arms and stood in front of the smoky shrine. The words of the suicide note in her mind were quickly dismantled and reorganized. However, the information was too messy, and the smoke and dust hindered her thinking.

She frowned, and suddenly found that a stone slab under her feet was a little loose.

oh?Qingwu raised her eyebrows, flipped her feet, and lifted the stone slab away.

That's a map.

If Qingwu hadn't brought Ogita with her, she would definitely not be able to loosen this stone slab with her own weight, right?

"If you weren't willing to be manipulated by that old man," Qingwu looked at the dead Otian complicatedly, and said, "you might have a very bright future."

After that, she brought Ogita to Tsume's study.That was the most severely burned place, and Tsume had been burnt beyond recognition.

"Old man, I brought him here, look at his face and repent." Looking at the inhuman but barely alive Tsumu, Qingwu threw a sharp needle and Chunni Huhua 1 at him in a vicious way, Let him live a little longer. "Apologizing to him with your last life is my mercy." She said coldly.

With the last of his life, Tsume kowtowed and knelt next to Ogita, and then stopped moving.

The fire quickly engulfed the two of them and spread outside.Qingwu watched quietly for a while, then searched in the crumbling shrine.

With the help of that map, Qingwu quickly found the place where Sanriyue was hidden.It was in a basement next to a field behind the shrine.It was originally used to store vegetables and other food, but it was transformed by Tsume into a place to store swords.

As if there was a tacit understanding, soon, Jingjitang and others also came here.

"It's over?" Jingjitang seemed relieved when he saw Qingwu, and said.

"It's over." Qingwu looked at the fire that hadn't dissipated, and said.

"Is this where the swords are stored?" Yukiko asked.

"Yes." Qingwu looked at the lid at the entrance, and suddenly turned pale with shock, "Not good!"

After that, she opened the door and jumped in.

After a while, her voice came up, "Only two more can come in."

Everyone looked at each other for a while, and Kyogokudo and Enokizu jumped down.

Passing through a not-too-long corridor, the view is wide. In the square room, there are various swords and swords on the walls, some with large and small blood rust, shining dimly in the dim yellow firelight.

"Three Riyue is not here." Qingwu glanced around for a week and said.

"The soil at the entrance has been moved." Kyogoku said. "But it doesn't rule out that Sanriyue is still inside."

"The other party left me a clue." Qingwu looked at the arrangement of the swords and said with certainty.

The swords and swords on the three walls are densely placed together, which can make people shudder at first glance, but if you endure the feeling of dense fear and distinguish carefully, you will find that the swords and swords seem to be arranged according to a certain rule, and the distance between the swords The gaps seem to form a strange pattern.

"Back to the door." With a click, Qing Wu grabbed the handle of the knife at his waist and said.

Chuzenji and Enokizu retreated to the door as promised.

Qingwu closed her eyes, recalling the direction of those gaps.

The knife is out of its sheath.

The magnificent streamer flashes and disappears in the small storage room.The swords broke and scattered due to the sword energy, like a storm.

Wait until the storm stops.

Without the cover of the sword, the wall was completely exposed.

There were dark brown stains on the wall ahead.

"Sure enough." Chuzenji said with a serious face. "I probably know what's in there."

"I'm going to cut through here," Qingwu said, "you'd better go up, or hold your breath."

The knife flashed.

A burst of stench rushed over in an instant.

Unlike dolls, the walls are full of human corpses.

"This matter is not over." Qingwu covered her mouth and nose, and said.

The bodies hidden in the storage room would have been difficult to identify.

However, it is also very recognizable.

Ten years ago, there was a missing child case that has not been solved yet. ——Kyogokudo mentioned this case, and Kiba immediately mobilized the data for comparison, and found that although the time was too long, the number and gender ratio of the bones in the storage room were exactly the same as the data on the missing persons. This was further confirmed by the discovery of many mutilated relics in the other wall.

Coincidentally, the sufferers in the disappearance case are basically the same as those in the current doll disappearance case. Most of these people are believers of Tsume Shrine.As a result, the reputation of the Tsume Shrine, which was already burned in the fire, fell to the ground, but in view of the fact that all the people in charge of the shrine died, this result seems meaningless.

"So is this the end of the incident?" Five days later, when everyone gathered in Kyogoku Hall again, Yukiko smiled gratefully at Chizuruko, and asked while drinking tea.

"Well, there is still a little speculation," Qingwu thought for a while, and said, "Perhaps, Ogita Huazhang's mother did not die from overwork."

"Huh?" Yukiko asked, stunned.

"After all, the time of the child's disappearance and the time of her death are almost inextricably linked..." Qingwu said thoughtfully, "If I didn't think too much, the families who lost their beloved son would definitely hope to have A sustenance?"

"So did you ask your mother who is a puppeteer?" Yukiko asked in surprise.

"At that time, it happened to be a time when the family was very poor, right?" Qingwu said, "So I worked to support the family..."

"And then it was accidentally discovered that the client coincided with the victim of the missing child case?" Masuda said.

"No." The bookstore owner folded his arms and said displeasedly, "If Ogita's mother died of homicide, then Tsume should have known that those children were dolls. How could..."

"That's right," Qingwu picked up a wagashi and put it in his mouth, "Unless someone specially instructed him to pick dolls? It's not impossible."

"It's really troublesome." Atsuko touched his chin beside him and said, "Isn't there still a doubt in this way? It's really regrettable as a closed case."

"Who said it's over?" Qingwu asked in surprise, "It's not over yet."

"Eh?" Yukiko said in surprise, "Impossible!"

"Could it be Mujin?" Atsuko asked enthusiastically.

"That person seems to have changed his name and surname to live in another place." Masuda interjected.

"Then..." Yukiko frowned, and couldn't think of anyone involved, "Is there anything else? The culprit has already been executed, right?"

"Could it be..." Atsuko thought of something, his eyes lit up.

"Sanriyue, Sanriyue." Qingwu said with the corner of her mouth curled up, "After all, that's my reward, I'm not willing to let others take advantage of it."

"Are you still thinking about this now!" Masuda said while holding his forehead. "Why do I feel like I've forgotten something..."

"Hey, I settled two deals for your detective agency, and I didn't get anything myself." Qingwu cast a glance at him and said. "I'm much more reliable than that stupid detective, don't you consider hiring me?"

What is reliable? !Obviously as willful as someone who wasn't there! ! !

"Please allow me to seriously refuse this." Masuda twitched the corner of his mouth and said.

"It's really troublesome," Qingwu said, scratching the back of his head, "then I have no reason to go back to live. Um, Yukiko?"

"My room is very small," Yukiko refused without hesitation, "it's full of dolls."

"Hey~~~" Qingwu glanced at her, "If you don't have a guest room, you will be lonely."

"What, what!!!" Yukiko jumped violently.

"Hey." Qingwu sighed deeply, "Although I got my things back, I feel like I've lost more of my appearance."

"That..." Qian Hezi said with a smile, and just when she was about to say something, a loud voice came from outside the door.

"Kyogoku! Are you here!!" Mr. Kiba came, and as soon as he opened the door, he cast a shadow in the room.

"It's so noisy," the bookstore owner stared at him displeasedly, and said, "What's the matter?"

"Someone died again." Kiba looked around for a week, clicked his tongue, and sat down directly by the door.

Just when everyone was stunned, another voice came.

"No, it's not good!" Shancun Xiaobei ran in in a panic, looked around for a week, pulled up Qingwu and ran, "My brother...! Anyway, please save him!"

"What's the matter?" Qingwu asked without knowing why.

"Brother," Sugimura Xiaobei covered his face, "It's all my fault....My brother was injured by an unknown person because of me!"

"Take me there." Qingwu frowned and said to him.
