This Japanese Story Is Not Too Cold

'God of Mikawa'?

Beichuan Temple didn't really believe this.

Because I continued to browse the news of Yuchuan Town, I no longer saw any missing or murder cases.

If there is such a spirit or resentful spirit as 'Yuchuan God', then the chance of a case happening in Yuchuan town cannot be so small.

But in fact, the town of Yuchuan went back 20 years and found no records of any terrorist incidents. This also shows that the God of Yuchuan mentioned in the previous news does not exist at all.

The disappearance of the four children was due to other reasons, the biggest reason of which may be——

Man-made crimes... Kamiya Mirai murmured Beichuan Temple's guess.

That's right, it's man-made crimes.

There are so many resentful spirits committing crimes in this world, and most of the cases are solved by the police themselves.

If there were really so many vengeful spirits, the world would have been in chaos long ago.

The reason why Beichuan Temple met so many resentful spirits was because of his own physique that attracted spirits.

For ordinary people, it is estimated that you will not see a spirit body a few times in your life, let alone the kind of resentful spirit that can materialize.

Beichuan Temple narrowed his eyes.

But compared to wraiths, man-made crimes are undoubtedly more troublesome and more difficult to deal with.

There is a saying that goes well.

People know that ghosts are scary, and ghosts know that people are poisonous.

Some people with distorted minds can cause incidents and harm to society, which are far more terrifying than some unconscious low-level wraiths.

It is said that the wraith spirit is terrifying, but few people have seen it. On the contrary, some people can be vicious to a shocking degree.

It is also mentioned in The Lost Royal River. In the end, the murderer possessed by the vengeful spirit killed the heroine, and the hero was in a daze.

So is this a tragedy caused by resentful spirits, or is it a tragedy caused by man?

If the killer hadn't killed the second survivor, would the final outcome have changed enough?

No one can know this.

It seems that it is necessary to go to the local area to investigate.

Beichuan Temple thought about this, and no longer hesitated.

He felt it was time.

Seeing that Beichuan Temple began to put on a coat for going out, Mirai Kamiya said, Is Temple Lord planning to visit Laihu City next?

Let's put the matter of visiting Raito Castle aside for a while. Beichuan Temple said after pondering for a while, I'm going to find Kobayashi Kiyoi.

Kiyoi Kobayashi?

Shengu Mirai was taken aback for a moment, and then thought of the patient who lived in the psychiatric department of the hospital.

According to Beichuan Temple, the other party's curse has been transferred to himself by him.

His current situation should be much more stable than before, and we should be able to ask some specific details about their games back then.

Beichuan Temple said and stood up.

Ah... wait, Monarch Si, I will go with you.

Um.

After a brief exchange between the two, they went out and turned towards the station.

After about forty-five minutes, Beichuan Temple and Kamiya Mirai came to the hospital again.

After the two of them registered at the front desk of the hospital, they went upstairs and came to the psychiatric department again.

Today's psychiatric department is also very quiet, but from time to time there will be some meaningless wailing and crying from some wards.

Beichuan Temple and Kamiya Mirai walked to the door of Kobayashi Kiyoi's ward and looked into it.

Kobayashi Kiyoi, whose complexion had improved significantly, was chatting with his mother Kobayashi Saki with a smile.

Kobayashi Zaoji was wiping away tears while smiling.

Although it was not good to disturb the reunion of mother and child, Beichuan Temple still knocked on the door of the ward.

Here we come. Xiao Lin replied early, and then opened the door of the ward.

As soon as he saw the visitor, Kobayashi Zaoji's eyes couldn't help but shine: Student Beichuan, and student Kamiya? I was talking about you with Qingjing just now, please come in.

Excuse me. The two nodded and walked into the ward without treating themselves as outsiders.

Beichuan-san... and Kamiya-san. Kobayashi Kiyoi obviously still remembered Beichuan Temple, the person who pulled him out of the sea of ​​suffering.

Since the last time he bumped into Beichuan Temple, he never had those weird dreams again, and he never saw those scary children again.

The quality of sleep and the stability of his mental state also relieved his anxiety a lot.

It can be said that he can chat with his mother calmly now, thanks to Beichuan Temple.

However, compared to the gratitude in his eyes, Beichuan Temple only nodded slightly, without expressing too much.

Helping Kobayashi Kiyoi was just to investigate the ins and outs of the whole thing.

After everyone sat down, Beichuan Temple said straight to the point:

Student Xiaolin, I want to talk to you about the four-person hide-and-seek game. I wonder if it's okay?

A four-player game of hide and seek?

Kobayashi Kiyoi turned pale when he heard the name that made him miserable during these days.

After a long time, Kobayashi Kiyoi slowed down and looked at his mother beside him:

Mom, I'm a little hungry, but I don't want to eat hospital food, can you buy me a bento at the convenience store on the other side.

...It's okay... Kobayashi looked at Xiaolin Qingjing strangely, but out of love for her son, she still agreed: Then Beichuan classmate will help me watch Qingjing for a while, and I will come back as soon as I go.

Her anti-thief-like expression made Kobayashi Kiyoi smile embarrassingly.

There is no way, he has been trying to commit suicide in the past two days, and it is quite normal to be looked at by Kobayashi Zaki with such eyes.

After Kobayashi Zaji completely left the ward, Kobayashi Kiyoi, who was lying on the hospital bed, straightened up a little.

He took a deep breath, and then exhaled again. After repeating this action several times, he looked at Beichuan Temple:

Beichuan-san wants to know about the follow-up of the four-player hide-and-seek game, right?

He probably also knew the purpose of Beichuan Temple.

After all, a person with extraordinary abilities like the other party must have come for the four-player hide-and-seek game.

It would be nice if you could tell me.

The other party's emotional intelligence is not too low, and Beichuan Temple is a little relieved.

Kobayashi Kiyoi thought for a moment and then slowly talked about the specific process of the four-person hide-and-seek game:

I remember that many people from the school were there, and Kamiya-san was also there, and then I played this four-person hide-and-seek game with Hoshino, Yichun, and Ebina.

Actually, it was to satisfy my desire for performance... At that time, so many people were watching it, it was impossible not to do it, and I felt a little ashamed to run away like that. Then someone said 'let's start'.

I just chanted spells with them four times, and waited for a long time. Kiyoi Kobayashi scratched his head, regretting why he wanted to join in the fun in the first place, and why he couldn't suppress his desire to express himself.

But in fact, nothing happened that night. I just felt a little inexplicably cold, but seeing the envious eyes of the students in the same grade around me was actually very useful in my heart, so I didn't care about those details.

Mirai Kamiya suddenly said, But things are far from ending that easily, right?

Kobayashi Kiyoi nodded in embarrassment.

Since playing that game, I have always felt that there is something peeping at me in my room. This feeling is very strange. It seems to be just a sign at first, and I think it is a psychological illusion, and then it becomes more and more serious. It's getting clearer, it's getting clearer...as if someone is actually watching me.

A terrifying expression slowly appeared on Kobayashi Kiyoi's face.

Can you imagine it? Kamiya-san, Beichuan-san... the kind of eyes that are so venomous... wishing to drink up your flesh and blood, it seems to be everywhere, it can be in my room It could be inside, it could be outside my room, it could be on the ceiling, it could be on the ground... maybe... still behind your back.

Kamiya Mirai couldn't help shivering.

But this symptom...disappeared after a month or two. Kiyoi Kobayashi swallowed, looking at the empty floor with fear in his eyes: But then, something even more terrifying happened.

What? Beichuan Temple poured hot water for him.

Thank you... Kobayashi Kiyoi gulped down his mouth, wiped his mouth, and continued: That thing... Beichuan, you should be very clear... It's the scratches of children, the kind Violet scratches.

At that time, my wrist was strangely cold and stinging. When I got up one day, the purple and blue scratches had already appeared on my wrist... It seems that there are some children who are scratching their hands every day. It's like squeezing my wrist maliciously.

Beichuan Temple looked at the trembling Kobayashi Kiyoi, his expression moved slightly.

This is how the purple scratches were originally formed?

I knew at the time that it was not an illusion, it was reality. There was someone beside me, but I couldn't see it, and I didn't know where it was. In this way, I endured it for several months...until that things happen...

Kobayashi Kiyoi was sweating profusely on his face.

that matter?

Well, Yichun, who was playing the game with me, died... His body was found at home, and it seemed that someone had smashed into his head with a fire ax.

I was very scared at the time. I thought that the next person might be me, so I told my father and mother. But they didn't believe me at all! They didn't believe me at all! I knew it at that time. If I want to live , we must concentrate our efforts to get rid of Yichun, and I still have two partners.

Kobayashi Kiyoi pulled his hair and murmured in pain: But when I told the other two about this, they didn't believe it at all.

Hoshino and that girl named Ebina?

Yes, at that time, there were only three of us who survived, and I told them about the finger marks, but they thought I was joking, and said, 'This kind of joke is really disgusting' , and then there was the case of Hoshino being killed by a murderer and dumping his body. To be honest, I had almost collapsed at that time, hiding at home all day long, thinking that I would be next.

Kobayashi Kiyoi brought the hot water cup to his mouth with trembling palms, took a sip and said, After that, I began to see children with pale skin frequently, and they would hide anywhere in my room... I When I want to change a piece of clothing, they will squat in the closet and look at you. I want to pick up a pen, but when I open the drawer, I can always see the blood-stained child’s severed hand in it.”

I just can't stand that kind of life.

Kobayashi Kiyoi was pale.

So you chose to commit suicide, but after you failed, you were sent to the hospital, and then you bumped into me while escaping, right? Beichuan Temple, who had sorted out all the incidents, said.

Well... Kobayashi Qingjing nodded, his eyes were a little dull: I really don't want to die, I don't want to die so badly. As soon as I close my eyes, I feel that I can see those horrible children's wraiths... They want me to die. to hell...

Beichuan Temple can also understand Kobayashi Kiyoi's subconscious words.

This method of death is like boiling a frog in warm water, which makes people depressed and crazy.

Because you never know when the danger will come, and you don't know when you will die... only know that you will die.

In this case, you can only live every day in fear.

It is also understandable that Kobayashi Kiyoi would become this semi-crazy state.

Beichuan Temple asked himself the last question.

Is that Ebina still alive?

I'm still alive... I heard from my mother that she seems to come to visit me sometimes.

still alive.

Beichuan Temple rubbed his chin and continued: Then can you contact her for me?

It's okay to contact, but that guy's temper is too stinky, classmate Beichuan...No, Master Beichuan, you must not get along well with her.

No matter what, you have to think about these things after contact.

Beichuan Temple has a tough attitude.

This made Xiao Lin Qingjing sigh, nodded and said: I understand, I will contact you right now, and I will give you her phone number later.

Kobayashi Kiyoi took out his mobile phone from the bed cabinet on one side and started to communicate, and Beichuan Temple and the others on the other side were not idle either.

The events mentioned by Kiyoi Kobayashi are of great reference value.

Apart from the symptoms of being cursed, one of them is time.

Kiyoi Kobayashi, Nana Hoshino, Ebina, and Yichun, from the beginning of the four-player hide-and-seek game to the end, a whole year has passed.

Coincidentally, there is also a description of time in The Lost Royal River.

A full year has passed since the seal was touched in March and the protagonists were cursed.

In the end, the killer killed the heroine. The scene of falling cherry blossoms described at that time also implied the meaning of a year.

In other words, the cursed people will be killed by the wraiths, and they will all die within a year.

This Ebina might be starting to feel unsafe now.

Find her before then, and ask her some questions later.

This is what Beichuan Temple needs to do now.

And just as he was thinking, Kobayashi Kiyoi on the other side made a sound.

Get through.

Beichuan Temple and Kamiya Mirai looked over together.
