It hasn't been burned yet, which means...
Chiba Nanshu closed the interface and said to Sei: "I want to go back to the present world."
"where are you going?"
"Well, go and have a look first. If the corpse is there, bring it back directly. If it's not there, use the Time Converter."
A lot of time passed a hundred years ago, Chiba Nanshu recalled the schedule on the schedule, and asked Sei to remember to remind him.
This time, he should be able to come back soon. Chiba Nanshu had already gone through the back door last time, and this time he wanted to bring the sword man back to the present world, so he honestly reported it.The report was approved only two hours later. He simply packed up his things and replied to the unprocessed messages on the communication software one by one before leaving Honmaru.
This time, besides Sei, there is only one knife by his side, which is California Kiyomitsu.
Ranto Shiro was assigned other tasks by Chiba Nanki, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would see the results soon.
After returning to the present world, there was another news on the line.
[Our school is going to hold a cultural festival, are you coming? 】
It's the news from Tetsuya Kuroko. It's a bit strange if I haven't contacted them for a while, but Chiba Nanshu has also been in contact with them in the past few days, and the strangeness has also been diluted.The cultural festival is next month, Chiba Nanshu thought about these three words, and replied: [Come.By the way, can you give me the contact information of the student union of your school? 】
【sure. 】
Simply writing down his plan on a sticky note, Chiba Minami put away his phone.
He was already very familiar with the mansion. When he returned to the city where he had been when he was a child, Chiba Nanshu took a taxi directly to the edge of the forest where the mansion was located without contacting any acquaintances.This forest is huge, and the depths are relatively dangerous. Even if someone comes, they won't go too deep into it. What's more, there is a legend about the ghost house in the mansion...
It was almost noon when Chiba Nanshu found the foreign house.
"The mansion in this place has not been burned down, that is to say..." Chiba Nanshu opened the door, "The mansion we went to at that time must be in the future."
California Qingguang thinks it is very good and saves trouble.
"As long as you bring back that person's bones, all this will be over, right?" He quickened his pace and walked in front of Chiba Nanshu, his eyes swept around, confirming that the place is indeed the same as in memory, "Let's go directly to the destination , Nanshu."
There was still a place in memory between Biganhua, but when Chiba Nanshu turned the doorknob, he found that it could not be turned.
"It's locked." Chiba Nanshu looked down, "It wasn't locked last time."
It should have been opened by a "real player", so you can go in directly at that time.
If you follow the normal way...
Before Chiba Nanshu could think about where to find the key first, California Kiyomitsu said, "Can I try?"
"Try?" Chiba Nanshu stepped aside, "Come on."
The wooden door has a long history, and the lock is also a little rusty. The word in Qingguang's hand was clamped in the door lock for a while and finally broke into two pieces.
Putting the broken clip back into the palm of his hand, California Qingguang felt a little regretful: "It doesn't seem to work."
Chiba Nanshu: "Did you learn it from TV dramas..."
It seems that when he was not in Honmaru, everyone really watched a lot of things.
"Actually, I have tried it successfully. Last time I couldn't open a small box, so I tried this method." He Chiba Nanshu briefly explained why he came up with this method, and California Qingguang looked at the door panel , "It would be great if it could be kicked away."
But since he already knew that someone would come to the mansion to open the door in the near future, and even make the whole mansion disappear in the fire, California Qingguang did not do anything else.
Chiba Minami is also aware of this...but what does it matter.
"Kick it away and have a look, Qingguang." Chiba Nanshu said with a smile, "It's okay."
California Qingguang looked at him, Chiba Nanshu's expression did not seem to be joking, what he said was indeed from the bottom of his heart.
"Then I—no, let's find the key."
California Qingguang tapped the ground with his heel, and the high-heeled boots collided on the wooden floor making a sound.
"High heels are inconvenient." He said so, "Have you seen keys or places to put keys in the mansion? Should we find them together or separately?"
He and Chiba Nanshu are not the only ones in the mansion. Both of them who have entered the "Ghost Pavilion" have encountered supernatural events. In fact, California Kiyomitsu is worried about letting Chiba Nanshu act alone.
California clear light had a change of heart.
Chiba Nanshu didn't laugh anymore, he scratched the hair around his ears, and knew why California Qingguang was there.
For them, the present experience is the past of the known future, which cannot be easily changed.It is known that the mansion will be destroyed later, and the lock will be unlocked with a key. At this time, it is impossible to destroy the door violently.
It's obviously just a door, wouldn't it be good to destroy it?
It's just such a small matter, it's nothing compared to what Mikage's family encountered, and Amamiya Sho died here alone.
Chiba Minami doesn't like being bound by history, even he wants to do something within the allowed range, but California Kiyomitsu has considered a lot for him, and it is impossible for him not to cherish it.
Chiba Nanshu looked at him and said, "The mansion is still very big, I think it will save time to look for it separately."
California Qingguang nodded.
He just felt that Chiba Minami would propose to act separately, so he didn't ask the two of them to go together at the beginning, which would seem to bind people too tightly. of.
Now he is already standing very close to Chiba Nanshu, if possible, he wants to get closer, but before that, he has to bear with it.
"Even if I encounter a ghost that can hurt people, I can deal with it."
Ask Qingguang Qingguang to go to the first floor first. Chiba Nanshu is standing at the door between the flowers on the other side, but he is not in a hurry to leave.
"Are you here?" he said softly, "I'll take you away."
The fluctuations of the spirit body were rippling at this moment, and Chiba Nanshu said again: "I'm late, I'm sorry. Where do you want to go? Do you want to go back to your parents and let them decide?"
The response finally came.
【……No. 】
Just like that, the young boy suddenly appeared in front of Chiba Nanshu, one of his eyes was covered by an overly long bang, and his black eyes looked at the ground like a bottomless lake.
[He hasn't come yet. 】
Chiba Nanshu said: "I also made an agreement with you...the future you, and I will take you out. The person you have been waiting for has not come for so long, why don't you go back with me."
【We agreed that he will come back. I will find what he lost and return it to him. 】
The boy unconsciously pulled the blue hoodie on his body, and finally looked at Chiba Minami.
【I can't go with you yet, Nan Shu. 】
Chiba Nanshu thought about what he would say after seeing Tian Gongxiang again, but he didn't expect that the other party would reject him.This is a completely different attitude from the opponent I met in the foreign mansion connected to the game. There must be some variables that lead to the inconsistent attitude.
Chiba Nanshu looked at each other, "When will he come?"
... the boy closed his eyes.
【I have no idea. 】
The voice was a little sad, the young soul existed here relying on the power of the curse circle, even if Chiba Nanshu took his body away, his soul would not go with him.
The magic circle will bind the souls who died in the mansion here, unable to go anywhere.
In this way, he can only wait day after day until that person comes to this mansion again.
The magic circle will be destroyed by those who come here soon, and the souls can also be liberated to choose where to go. Chiba Nanshu quietly looked at the friend who was frozen in time, and finally squatted down on the spot.
"Then... I'll wait for you." He said, "I'll take your body out first, and when you're willing to leave, I'll ask you where you're going."
The boy agreed.
The location of the key was told directly that Chiba Minami was found in a vase.He noticed the sight of an acquaintance, and the ghosts seemed to want to talk to him, but they were still hesitating and did not come out.
Chiba Nanshu held the key in his hand, he looked around and said, "It's me, I'm back."
[...Welcome back, Nanshu. 】
A gentle male voice rang in his ears, Chiba Nanshu was taken aback by the extremely close distance, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he was in a man's embrace.
【sorry. 】
It's Mr. Akito.
[How long has it been... It's incredible that I can still meet you. 】Akito Mikage gently stroked Chiba Nanshu's hair,【Even if I was told that I don't want to see me, I still can't help but come out to see you at this time. 】
Chiba Minami shook his head.
"It was angry at that time. I...I can't help you with anything."
He bowed his head, a little depressed.
"I didn't help you."
【I did something bad, it has nothing to do with you. ] Yuying Qiuren said, 【I want to see you... I really want to see you, but I am afraid that you will appear here. 】
Chiba Minami didn't appear in the mansion after the incident in the mansion, and even disappeared completely since then.
Mrs. Xiao Yezi is not here, she passed away before the magic circle took effect.
[Leave quickly, bad things will happen if you stay here for too long. ] Yuying Qiuren said, 【The curse will lure the dark part of the human heart, only those affected by the curse can leave here... But this rule should not have much impact on you, I am glad that you are not ordinary. 】
The two let go of this hug, and behind Mikage Akito stood Mr. Yakumo, the housekeeper, his granddaughter Yoshiko, and the female student Chiba Nanki had been in contact with.
"Long time no see." Qianye Nanshu said to them, "Wait a little longer, someone will come to lift the curse soon. If he doesn't lift it, then I will do it."
Chiba Nanshu didn't know the boy who had brief contact with him in the game, and he hadn't even met him face to face, so it was impossible to find him.But if the other party fails to do what he wants, then it is up to him to do it well.
He left the place where Mikage Akito and others were, and saw a black-haired woman in a white dress around the corner.
The other party smiled and said: [Nan Shu, you are back. 】
With the ends of her hair down, she looks like Mrs. Sayoko at first glance. Her smile is very gentle, which is the expression Chiba Nanki sees most often.
[Have you seen Mr. Qiuren? 】Shao asked,【I've been looking for him, but I can't find him, where is he hidden? 】
"Mr. Qiuren doesn't want to see you, so you can't find him..." Chiba Nanshu said, "Did you kill Mrs. Sayoko?"
Shao's smile slowly cooled.
【Ms. Sayoko wanted to commit suicide. 】 She said, 【You know what?Mrs. Sayoko murdered. 】
Qianye Nanshu really didn't know, he opened his mouth, but finally he couldn't think of a word to say.
[After she got sick, she would often forget what she had done. I didn't know what it was like before... But that day, when I woke up, Mrs. Sayoko had died. 】
She stepped back a few steps, and her eyes softened a little.
【Get out of here quickly, Nan Shu. ] She said, 【In dangerous places, even if it is not a curse, there will be an existence that can plunge people into darkness to lure Xin. 】
Koko left without saying goodbye to Chiba Minamiki.
Tian Gongxiang is still waiting among the flowers on the other side, and California Qingguang has not returned yet.Chiba Minami inserted the key into the lock and turned it, opening the door that had not been opened for several years.
The cabinet is not locked, it can be opened with a pull.Once again, Chiba Nanshu held the child's corpse firmly in his arms.
Worrying about the bones falling apart, Chiba Nanshu prepared the spell that Abe Seimei wanted to come, recited the spell to fix and store the bones, and then put the spell into the backpack that Abe Seimei lent him.
Because it was a backpack connected to the shikigami's room, Chiba Minami also went to greet the shikigami earlier.
"This is...?" The boy opened his eyes wide, "Where is my body?"
"It's where I live." Chiba Nanshu said, "The environment there is very good. I want to take your body there first and wait for you."
Chiba Nanshu wanted to take his friend back, but the other party had his own insistence, so he had no choice but to secretly decide to wait until the mansion was burned down before arriving here.
He went to find California Qingguang and explained the current situation to the other party. California Qingguang was a little dissatisfied: "You should call me when you find the key."
"At that time, I didn't know what I was thinking..." Chiba Nanshu truthfully replied and asked for forgiveness, "Thank you for your hard work, Kiyomitsu."
California Qingguang rubbed his forehead, he searched for a long time on the first and second floors, and found quite a few keys.
"Put them back?"
"...Uh...I'm coming!"
It felt like arranging game props, and when Chiba Nanshu put them back one by one, he even wanted to hide them deeper.
Passing through a familiar room on the second floor, Chiba Nanshu met the boy who had a conversation with him.
The blond boy stood by the window, behind him was the room belonging to his sister.
Looking down at the scissors in his hand, Harold noticed the human breath, and cast his eyes on Chiba Minami.
【It's you. ] He said, 【I've seen your picture. 】
Chiba Nanshu stepped forward and said, "I apologize to you on behalf of Mr. Qiuren."
Harold is the son of the owner after Mikage Akito, and Chiba Minami confirmed that he was under the influence of a curse to commit the killing.
[Apologize? 】Harold smiled, 【Play a game with me, and I will forgive you. 】
After becoming a ghost, Harold is keen to play hide-and-seek games with his younger sister. The younger sister is always avoiding him, but he finds the doll he gave away that already belongs to his younger sister.
【She is very obsessed with her own things, and if someone takes them away, she will try her best to get them back. ] Harold said, and handed out a crayon to Chiba Nanshu, 【Help me devise a little riddle in Japanese, I will put the doll under the table. 】
--Under the table.
California Qingguang was taken aback, remembering what happened in the game.
Chiba Minami did indeed write down that passage, and the handwriting was seen by Qingguang.Not very used to writing with crayons, Chiba Nanshu's handwriting is not so beautiful.He even specially used children's handwriting for the convenience of little girls to watch.
After getting the riddle, Harold smiled at Chiba Minami.
【You are fine, I have seen what you left behind. 】He said, 【But unfortunately, I failed to lift the curse, but... 】
Chiba Nanshu's eyes were a little sore, he said: "Wait a little longer, the curse will be lifted after a while, I promise."
【Well, I wish you well. ] Harold said, 【That's your wish, isn't it? 】
"……Correct."
From leaving the method of lifting the curse, Chiba Nanshu looked forward to the early lifting of the curse, which was indeed his wish.
[So, I hope that when we meet next time, you can achieve your wish. 】
After leaving Harold, Chiba Minami and California Kiyomitsu came to the entrance of the mansion.
The curse will indeed make the mansion in a closed space, separated from the outside world into two spaces, and only those affected by the curse can go out.
But this rule did not apply to Chiba Nanshu after he realized that he was the pillar of the world.
No matter how divided it is, it still belongs to this world. Chiba Nanshu can use his spiritual power to connect the divided spaces, open this door and take California Qingguang out together.
Tian Gongxiang stood at the door to see them off, Chiba Nanshu was still a little reluctant, he took a last look at the other party, and finally walked into the outside world.
"I'll be back, wait for me...!"
Chiba Nanshu said loudly, and the door gradually closed after he stepped out, until only the last gap remained.
"Wait for me, Xiang!"
The door is completely closed.
Standing in the dimly lit hall behind the door, the boy tightened his grip on the right hand of the blue hoodie, and the clothes rubbed against the hand strap on his wrist, which was slightly covered by the long-sleeved sleeves.
[... Xiang...?I……】
He looked at the closed door, with anxiety and doubt in his black eyes.
【I'm not Xiang, Nan Shu. 】
The author has something to say: Long time no see [shivering]
In this month of break
I learned the late cosplay! [Akimbo] Then I fell into the liver picture hell of editing myself...
Anyway, I'm back with an update!This chapter is super fun hehe☆
Chiba Nanshu closed the interface and said to Sei: "I want to go back to the present world."
"where are you going?"
"Well, go and have a look first. If the corpse is there, bring it back directly. If it's not there, use the Time Converter."
A lot of time passed a hundred years ago, Chiba Nanshu recalled the schedule on the schedule, and asked Sei to remember to remind him.
This time, he should be able to come back soon. Chiba Nanshu had already gone through the back door last time, and this time he wanted to bring the sword man back to the present world, so he honestly reported it.The report was approved only two hours later. He simply packed up his things and replied to the unprocessed messages on the communication software one by one before leaving Honmaru.
This time, besides Sei, there is only one knife by his side, which is California Kiyomitsu.
Ranto Shiro was assigned other tasks by Chiba Nanki, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would see the results soon.
After returning to the present world, there was another news on the line.
[Our school is going to hold a cultural festival, are you coming? 】
It's the news from Tetsuya Kuroko. It's a bit strange if I haven't contacted them for a while, but Chiba Nanshu has also been in contact with them in the past few days, and the strangeness has also been diluted.The cultural festival is next month, Chiba Nanshu thought about these three words, and replied: [Come.By the way, can you give me the contact information of the student union of your school? 】
【sure. 】
Simply writing down his plan on a sticky note, Chiba Minami put away his phone.
He was already very familiar with the mansion. When he returned to the city where he had been when he was a child, Chiba Nanshu took a taxi directly to the edge of the forest where the mansion was located without contacting any acquaintances.This forest is huge, and the depths are relatively dangerous.

There was still a place in memory between Biganhua, but when Chiba Nanshu turned the doorknob, he found that it could not be turned.
"It's locked." Chiba Nanshu looked down, "It wasn't locked last time."
It should have been opened by a "real player", so you can go in directly at that time.
If you follow the normal way...
Before Chiba Nanshu could think about where to find the key first, California Kiyomitsu said, "Can I try?"
"Try?" Chiba Nanshu stepped aside, "Come on."
The wooden door has a long history, and the lock is also a little rusty. The word in Qingguang's hand was clamped in the door lock for a while and finally broke into two pieces.
Putting the broken clip back into the palm of his hand, California Qingguang felt a little regretful: "It doesn't seem to work."

【You are fine, I have seen what you left behind. 】He said, 【But unfortunately, I failed to lift the curse, but... 】
Chiba Nanshu's eyes were a little sore, he said: "Wait a little longer, the curse will be lifted after a while, I promise."
【Well, I wish you well. ] Harold said, 【That's your wish, isn't it? 】
"……Correct."
From leaving the method of lifting the curse, Chiba Nanshu looked forward to the early lifting of the curse, which was indeed his wish.
[So, I hope that when we meet next time, you can achieve your wish. 】
After leaving Harold, Chiba Minami and California Kiyomitsu came to the entrance of the mansion.
The curse will indeed make the mansion in a closed space, separated from the outside world into two spaces, and only those affected by the curse can go out.
But this rule did not apply to Chiba Nanshu after he realized that he was the pillar of the world.
No matter how divided it is, it still belongs to this world. Chiba Nanshu can use his spiritual power to connect the divided spaces, open this door and take California Qingguang out together.
Tian Gongxiang stood at the door to see them off, Chiba Nanshu was still a little reluctant, he took a last look at the other party, and finally walked into the outside world.
"I'll be back, wait for me...!"
Chiba Nanshu said loudly, and the door gradually closed after he stepped out, until only the last gap remained.
"Wait for me, Xiang!"
The door is completely closed.
Standing in the dimly lit hall behind the door, the boy tightened his grip on the right hand of the blue hoodie, and the clothes rubbed against the hand strap on his wrist, which was slightly covered by the long-sleeved sleeves.
[... Xiang...?I……】
He looked at the closed door, with anxiety and doubt in his black eyes.
【I'm not Xiang, Nan Shu. 】
The author has something to say: Long time no see [shivering]
