[Psychic Detective Yakumo] One hundred ways to tease cats

Ji? The uncle who was watering the flowers stopped, squinted his eyes and smiled, "It's really rare that you even know this." "

"...?" Yakumo looked at his uncle suspiciously, but the other party smiled and said nothing, so he finally had to say, "I thought it was a personal name."

"No," said the uncle with a happy smile, "that was the maiden at the top of the Ise Shrine in ancient times, and she was the one who talked directly with the gods... It is recorded in the ancient books that people said that she was chosen by the gods. All the witches are called Yuyiji, and it is said that Yuyiji has the ability to purify ghosts and eliminate disasters. Now that I think about it, maybe it has some supernatural powers, but it’s a bit too pitiful to be the chosen girl.”

"Poor?" Yakumo's ears moved.

"Well, the chosen girl is not allowed to leave the palace for the rest of her life, and she has to bear everyone's suffering," Yixin sighed, "Originally, Yuyi Ji could leave the palace, but since a certain generation, Yuyiji can't leave the palace. Well, this is equivalent to a kind of protection."

"Why?" Yakumo asked.

"Because the generation that went wrong was originally the most outstanding Yu Yiji, it was precisely because she went out of the palace that she was followed by others, and finally died of rape." Yixin sighed, "That fire almost destroyed her. Since then, Yu Yiji has not been allowed to leave the palace."

"...Oh." Yakumo said sullenly.

"Hey, I'm talking about Yakumo." Perhaps thinking of something, the uncle said with a smile, "If there is a conflict, it's better to express your feelings clearly."

"There's no contradiction...it's not this kind of thing!" Yakumo frowned, "I'm just...!"

"Yes," said the uncle with a smile, "Although Haruka looks very smart, she is a child who can't express her feelings. Although this has changed after being with you, fundamentally, for The child still doesn’t know how to express some complicated emotions, so you need to take the initiative to understand it yourself, Yakumo~”

"Why don't you take the initiative..." Yakumo resented dissatisfiedly.

"Because until now," said uncle leisurely, "isn't that child always taking the initiative? Occasionally, let's take the initiative with a manly spirit, Yakumo."

"What does that guy have to do with me?" Yakumo glared at his uncle, and opened his mouth to utter a series of rebuttals. Unexpectedly, his uncle had expected this, and blocked his ears childishly before he could speak.

"I can't hear you~" Uncle laughed, "If you have any complaints, it's better to tell Haruka yourself~"

"Whispering." Yakumo turned around holding Nao in his arms, with his back to his uncle. "I just, didn't know what to say," he muttered.

"Ah," the uncle looked at Yakumo sighing, "Is this the boy in love? It really makes people feel youthful."

"That's not true!" Yakumo glared at his uncle, and finally stood up in frustration, "I don't want to talk to uncle anymore."

"After you go back, you must reconcile with Haruka~" the uncle teased.

"..." Yakumo smiled wryly, "If she is really Haruka."

Uncle was right, there were still things he had to figure out, and blindly avoiding them would not solve the problem.

The shadow called past life will dissipate one day.Thinking so, he returned to his living room.

58

It should be the same night as usual...

Hideo Miyagawa also boarded the winding ramp and parked the car on the side of the road.

The destination, a three-story building visible through the windshield, has the kind of atmosphere that feels like something out of a horror movie.

"I can't stand it. Rich people dare to build such ridiculously large houses. This is Japan."

Miyagawa muttered, and picked up the spare wireless walkie-talkie in the car.

"This is Setamachi [-], we have arrived at the scene, now we are going to check the situation."

(learn.)

"It's really unlucky."

Miyagawa turned off the walkie-talkie, sighing.

There have been frequent incidents recently, and almost all of them are too busy to go home. When they are thinking about going home early, they accidentally answer the wireless call.

Now that it has been picked up, it cannot be ignored.Even he himself felt that his personality was at a disadvantage.

As soon as Miyagawa approached the gate, he saw a middle-aged woman standing there.

A woolen coat was draped over the pajamas, and she was still bare-faced, as if she had rushed out of the house in a panic.

"I'm Miyagawa from the Seta Town Bureau."

As soon as she showed the police officer's manual, the woman eased the expression on her face as if she felt relieved.

"Are you from this family?"

Hearing Miyagawa's question, the woman shook her head.

"I went to call the police. I seem to have heard a very horrific scream. It was scary..."

It turned out to be the case.

"Stand back a little, I want to go in and see what's going on inside." Miyagawa said, and pushed open the iron door.

Chirp, the rusty iron rubbing against each other made a screeching sound.

"Excuse me...Mr. Police Officer, are you coming alone?" the woman said in fear.

"Backup will be here soon." Ordinary people, don't worry about it unnecessarily, it's really annoying.

Miyagawa said silently in his heart, then stepped onto the lawn covered with beautiful grass and walked towards the entrance.

"It's so big."

Looking up at the building from a close distance, he felt the grandeur of the building again.

Since the curtains were drawn, the scene inside could not be seen, but it could be seen that the lights were on.

Miyagawa tried to ring the doorbell on the entrance.The melodious bell rang, which could be heard even outside.

However, no one came to answer the door.

"I'm the police, is anyone home?"

He knocked on the door, but there was still no answer.

I began to feel restless in my heart.

"I'm the police, is anyone here?"

Miyagawa raised his voice and reached for the doorknob.

opened.

"Is anyone there? Answer me quickly."

He yelled loudly and walked slowly into the entrance.

The atmosphere is so heavy.It's like stepping into another world - it makes people feel this way.

In addition, there is a bad smell.

"This is……"

Opposite the entrance was a straight corridor, and at the end of that corridor was a door that was ajar.

Tick, tick.

The sound of falling water droplets can be heard intermittently.

Miyakawa pulled out the special baton stuck at his waist, walked up the corridor with his shoes on, and slowly approached the door.

The heart beat naturally and violently.

Danger.Instinct cried out.

Miyagawa pushed open the door with the tip of his baton.

What came into view was the face of a middle-aged man with a distressed expression.You don't even need to confirm, you can know that he has died.

It wasn't just one person who fell to the ground.

There is also a pair of men and women over sixty years old, and a woman who looks to be in her thirties, piled on top of each other covered in blood.

A pool of blood formed on the wooden floor.

It's like a picture scroll of hell——

What happened?

Miyagawa, who was trying to stay calm, immediately turned around and wanted to call for support.

"Ah!" He shrank into a ball in fright.

A man suddenly stood in front of him.

The man had long hair combed back, was wearing a black suit and sunglasses, and was accompanied by a child who looked like a primary school student.

The chest of the white Western-style pajamas that the child was wearing was dyed bright red.

what happened?What the hell happened here?

Although Miyagawa's head was in a state of confusion, he did not forget to step back slowly to maintain a distance.However, without knowing what he stepped on, he fell backwards.

He raised his upper body in a panic and stared at the end of the corridor.

The man in the suit smiled, and slowly took off his sunglasses.

"Xing Nai," I said on the phone, "Is it like that in America? Are you still used to it?"

Listening to the other party's energetic voice, I nodded.

Anna Sasaki is a good friend I made at an academic conference. She is currently traveling in the United States and has nothing to do. I called her to greet her. As a senior, she gave me a lot of advice for my future career development.Tomorrow I will go to primary school for an internship, and she gave me even the advice for the internship.

"Well, the school for the internship has been decided...why don't you go to your alma mater? Well, I don't want to receive special treatment, I want to challenge myself occasionally, well, I will be careful, and you are too. Well Well, boyfriend or something... No, um, it's just a little friction recently, it's okay, we are just ordinary friends... Don't worry, there will be no problems, then don't bother, good night and sweet dreams." I finished, hang up the phone.

It's been a long time since that day.And Yakumo and I seem to have reached a certain consensus, and we haven't had a single contact during this period.

Maybe we all need a while to figure things out.

Thinking of this, I fell on the bed and sighed.

I don't know how to explain this kind of thing, because I don't know anything about the status quo, it just... just happened so naturally.

"Yuyiji..." I slowly said the name and sighed.

Let it be, I thought.

Thinking of this, I turned over and closed my eyes.

But it never occurred to me that there is no such time for us to think clearly.

It was already past ten o'clock when Yokouchi Kazuto walked out of the entrance and exit commonly used by the teaching staff in the school building.When I looked up by chance, I saw a beautiful moon hanging in the sky.

It's the full moon——.I didn't expect to spend so much time doing the unfamiliar work of locking all the doors and windows in the school.

In fact, locking doors and windows is an alumni
