Chapter 297 Accountability
"Endo..."

At the gate of Horikawa High School, Shimada saw Endo's figure appearing from a distance, and immediately waved to him.

"What happened?"

Coming to Shimada's side, Endo looked at the crowd around the school and the construction fence pulled up by the school gate with a puzzled expression on his face.

In the enclosure, he vaguely heard the sound of an electric drill coming from inside.

"You came late and missed the best part."

Shaking his head, he gave Endo a regretful expression.

Shimada took out his flip phone, took out a photo and put it in front of Endo, and said with a little show off in his tone.

"Just now, the police led people to seal up the surrounding area and blocked things that appeared at the school gate, but I have already taken pictures, and I heard from people earlier that this huge ball of thread that appeared at the school gate came from It came out of a person..."

"Really, that's such a pity."

Looking down at the photo on Shimada's phone, Endo said regrettable words, but the expression on his face did not change.

"You haven't seen the scene just now. The huge ball of thread is as high as a three-story building, and it's entangled in circles. It doesn't look like something that would appear in the real world."

Looking back at the fence behind him, Shimada's emotions were still immersed in the shock of seeing the huge ball of thread just now.

In the surrounding area, many people gathered there, and among them was the figure of a reporter.

With the Internet, Takayama exposed what happened at Horikawa High School.

The government's control over public opinion has lost its effect, and the media will naturally not let go of all this.

……

"no!"

Inside the fence, put away the smoking and hot electric drill in your hand.

The fireman looked at the undamaged thread in front of him, and shook his head at Yamamoto beside him.

"These wires are harder than expected, and even an electric drill can't penetrate them."

"Where's the chainsaw?"

Hearing what the firefighters said, Yamamoto frowned.

"Basically there won't be much of a difference."

Seeing this, Yamamoto took a deep breath, and he moved closer to staring at the tangled threads in front of him.

Although under the naked eye, the whole ball of thread does not look abnormal.

However, the actions of firefighters proved that all this is extraordinary.

Under the condition of using an electric drill, even the hard metal can leave at least a mark, but the thread ball in front of him is unscathed, not even a trace of damage is left.

"It has been investigated. The name of the person involved in the accident is Kojima Yoshikuma. He was originally just an ordinary high school student at Horikawa High School..."

Lifting a corner of the fence around the ball of thread and walking in, the police officer in charge of the investigation reported the results of the investigation to Yamamoto.

"The other party's real abnormality was three days ago. At that time, he broke up with a female middle school student named Meihui. After that, when he came to school again, there was a red suture on his body. From then on, the red thread on his body every day It will become more and more, and until this morning, the red line has directly occupied his whole body, and then it became the appearance in front of him."

"Someone in Kojima's family mentioned that what appeared on Kojima was a kind of thing called the thousand-person needle. I checked the information. The thousand-person needle was a cloth that was held by the mother or wife in the past for prayer and protection. Go to the station to find women who sew, one stitch per person, and find items sewed by thousands of people."

"Do you think there are only a thousand red threads in front of you?"

Hearing the report from his colleagues, although Yamamoto was a little interested in the Thousand-Person Needle, he looked at the huge ball of thread in front of him and knew clearly that this thing had nothing to do with the so-called Thousand-Person Needle.

"Have you investigated the middle school girl who broke up with Kojima?"

"I have already asked. After she broke up with Kojima, she has not contacted her again. Today is the first time she saw Kojima after the breakup. She was shocked. The police in charge of the interrogation are comforting her. "

Hearing his colleague's answer, Yamamoto nodded.

Looking back at the huge ball of thread again, I just felt a headache.

This kind of case involving ghosts and gods is simply not something that he, a small inspector of the Metropolitan Police Department, can solve.

……

"...Mr. Police, will you rescue the island inside?"

Inside the cordoned off Horikawa High School, Meihui glanced at the direction where Kojima turned into a ball of thread, and looked at the investigating police in front of her with a frightened expression on her face.

"..."

Hearing Meihui's inquiry, the policeman opposite him was silent for a moment, and then he thought about it and comforted him: "We can only do our best."

In fact, the police are well aware.

With Xiao Dao's current situation, the possibility of surviving is obviously very slim. The reason why he said this is just to let Meihui in front of him not be too sad.

After all, according to the results of the survey.

Not long ago, the two were still a couple. It must be very sad to see their ex-boyfriend encounter such a tragic situation.

Hearing the police's comfort, Mei Hui lowered her head, as if she was very sad about it.

However, where the police on the opposite side didn't notice, she quietly pulled down the cuffs to block the red stitching on her wrist, and a gleam of gratitude flashed in her heart.

"Sure enough, this is a terrible red thread. Fortunately, I cut the thread in time when I got rid of the island. Otherwise, the person who was entangled in the thread ball would have become me."

……

"The editor-in-chief..."

Amidst the rapid ringing, Gao Shan answered the phone.

"What did you do, Takayama!"

Immediately afterwards, the chief editor of the Kyoto Kyodo Newspaper branch came from the other side of the phone, with a voice of panic and panic.

"I'm just telling the truth to the public."

Faced with the editor-in-chief's questioning on the phone, Gao Shan's expression was extremely calm. He couldn't hide the smile on the corner of his mouth when he saw a large number of comments about his article on the Internet and the amazing clicks.

He knew that he had won the bet.

Especially when he glanced at the latest report about the "spectacles" in Horikawa High School, the expression on Takayama's face became even more excited.

"Because of the article you published without permission, not only the branch of Kyodo News Agency, but also the headquarters have been held accountable by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. I don't care what purpose you are doing such absurd things. Now publish it to me immediately The article clarified all this, and then held a press conference to apologize."

"Sorry, editor-in-chief, I don't think there is anything wrong with the article I published."

"Gao Shan, do you know who you are talking to? I'm not asking you to do something. If you don't publish the clarification article as instructed by the headquarters, I won't be the one who calls you. It's a higher-level figure, when the time comes, everything will not be so simple, you have to think about it for me!"
