=======================

Ghost stories are stories related to strange events and creatures passed down orally by human beings.

"Fusangshin is a god who was born after keeping things for more than a hundred years. As long as there are rumors and beliefs, anything can become a god...even Noragami without a shrine. If you don't have enough faith, you will be forgotten and disappear."

Oda Sakunosuke said: "This is the 800 million gods."

"Yes."

Possessing their own rumors, these weird people rely on strange talks to constantly brush up their sense of existence.

"—However, rumors may be changed. The changed rumors will one day have an impact on the weirdness itself. Human beings spread rumors at a very fast speed. At this time, the weirdness itself needs to appear to emphasize itself and control the rumors Content."

Uesugi Raku and Oda Sakunosuke explained the rules, and the live broadcast room will open soon, and the camera is already floating in mid-air with the lens aimed at Uesugi Raku.

"However, we [outsiders] are different from the local ones. I don't care much about how the content of the rumors will develop..." Uesugi Le said, "The local ghost stories may be affected by the change of the story. In essence, some weird rumors will disappear after spreading, and the weirdness will also hide, or even disappear.”

Surrounded by black mist, the surrounding environment has changed after it dispersed.

This is a school, and they are standing on the school road near the school gate.

Uesugi Raku will not continue the very complicated topic. He is walking slowly on the road with Oda Sakunosuke. The school is almost hidden in the night. The teaching building is not illuminated by night lights. It looks like a giant that will devour something. things.

The footsteps of the two were not obvious, and Sakunosuke Oda, who rolled 23 points on the stealth dice, stood here basically as an air, and even the footsteps almost completely disappeared, only a little bit of undetectable sound.

This school is near the sea, and behind the school building is the beach that connects to the coast.The smell of sea water comes with the night wind, and the sound of the waves beating is shallow, which sounds very comfortable.

But this tranquility was quickly broken. Suddenly, there was a dull and loud sound of something heavy falling on the wood. From a distance, the two heard: "Chasing!"

"It seems that not only my guest is here tonight, but someone else."

Uesugi Le looked at the direction of the sound, in the darkness, a small figure like a child ran out of the school building, turned around and disappeared in the middle of the night.Looking at the direction of departure, it seems to be going to the beach.

"It looks familiar..." Uesugi Le recalled.

Oda Sakunosuke also had the same idea. He recalled it, and suddenly recalled the elementary school student he met in the western restaurant.

"Looking at the body shape, it looks a bit like that child."

"Yeah... thought it would be interesting, I haven't contacted him since then."

Uesugi took out his mobile phone without haste. The current time is 11:54, and there are still a few minutes before his live broadcast room will open.

It is not too much to make a private phone call to catch fish.

When the call was made, the ringtone rang in the handset, but it took 1 minute for the call to be picked up.

There was a panting sound, and the other party seemed to be exercising.The sound of footsteps was not obvious, even muffled. The other party should be on a soft ground.

"Brother Le? I'm sorry, I'm a little busy right now—!"

The sudden stop of the voice was noticeable. Uesugi Raku hadn't spoken yet, but Edogawa Conan said softly, "I'm really sorry, I'm going to hang up first."

Faintly, there was the sound of waves beating over there.

Putting away the phone, Uesugi Raku smiled.

"Let's go, Conan-kun is over there."

……

Edogawa Conan is indeed on the coast not far away.

The moon is bright and clear, and there are no clouds tonight.There are no stars in the night sky of the city, which makes the moonlight appear brighter, illuminates the sea surface, and makes the reflected moonlight tremble on the sparkling waves.

He carefully hid behind the administrator's hut by the beach, poked his head out, and could see a dark figure on the rocky beach in the distance.

He didn't approach right away, and first took a photo and sent it to his good friend (search expert) Haibara Ai, and then he pressed the glasses to activate the telescope function to observe the figure carefully.

The image presented in the lens is magnified and zoomed in, and the brightness and saturation of the image are increased in the black environment. What is reflected in the eyes of Edogawa Conan is a creature that is completely beyond imagination.

Just at this time, a hand was lightly placed on his shoulder.

Edogawa Conan: "!"

He almost exclaimed, and when he looked back, he found that it was Uesugi Raku who he had seen last time.

The ups and downs were a little too excited, Edogawa Conan quickly took a few breaths, and then whispered: "Why are you here?"

"I saw you just now, so I called you."

"So this is ah……"

But why did Raku Uesugi appear in this school at night?

There was no time to think about it, and Conan Edogawa was afraid of losing his target, so he quickly turned his attention to the strange-looking creature.

It has a body similar to that of a human, but its skin is that of a gray-green fish, with a sticky and smooth feel.The head is flat, not nearly round like the human skull.The eyes protrude like fish eyes, and the head is close to the fish.

It was the first time for Edogawa Conan to see such a humanoid creature, and he didn't know what else to do besides photographing it.

Come closer, either you are afraid of scaring the target away, or you are worried that you may not be able to resist them with your own force value.Just leave like this, and there are some clues that I can't bear to get.

Now that there are more people around me, maybe the choices will increase...

Edogawa Conan patted Uesugi Raku's arm and asked him to squat down and listen to him.

"Remember the murder case in the western restaurant that day? The thing on the reef over there is related to the deceased. I want to catch it. What can you do?"

"You're just a primary school student, it's too dangerous to do this kind of thing." On the side, Sakunosuke Oda whispered, only to find that there was a man beside him, and Edogawa Conan was startled again.

"When did you come?!"

"It's been here since just now."

"what--"

Realizing that he might make a sound, Edogawa Conan quickly covered his mouth and swallowed his exclamation back into his stomach.

All right, one more person and one more assistant.

Without hesitation, he put the two of them as assistants, Edogawa Conan said: "Help me, let's work together to catch it!"

"What are you doing grabbing it?" Uesugi Le asked him, "Did anything happen between you?"

"So it's related to the previous murder case... I suspect that he is the murderer and the criminal!"

Things have to start after parting with Uesugi Raku.

At that time, they investigated the kitchen staff who had been in contact with the deceased before his death.The investigation found that his past resume was very simple. After being adopted by an orphanage when he was a child, he went to study and work in an ordinary way, with ordinary interpersonal relationships and basically no friends.

In other words, apart from the orphanage staff who took care of him, the college student of the deceased was his closest relationship.

The death scene of the deceased was full of doubts, first of all, the strangle marks on the corpse, then a small piece of squid leg left at the scene, and the sewer opening covered by the table, and finally, the staff said that the appearance of the kitchen staff had changed matter.

It was mentioned before that there are traces of suckers on the strangle marks, but after the autopsy, it was found that the shape of the suckers was too small, and the distribution was different from the thickness of the strangle marks.

All the clues point to the missing kitchen staff. Perhaps only by finding that person can all doubts be solved.

Edogawa Conan followed Mori Kogoro and others to see the photos of the missing person. Western restaurants regularly have photo records. At this time, it is easy to see the changes of the missing person by flipping through the photos.

Indeed, as the staff said, the facial appearance of the missing person has changed.The eyes gradually protrude like fish eyes, and the lips and jaws are also getting bigger. There are shocking cracks in the mandibles on both sides of the skin.

The color of the skin also changed, not only that, but the joints of his fingers were deformed.

"It doesn't look like a human being, and everyone is even less willing to talk to him, and the leader is also considering dismissal..."

Before the dismissal, the case happened first.

Relying on the monitoring of various streets, the police and detectives found the missing person in the streets around the school.At some point in the street, there was a rumor that told people not to look out of the window at night. It was said that they would see a figure lying on the window, which was very scary.

This rumor caught their attention, and tonight was the night when they tracked it down.Followers of "people" lying on the window, they came all the way to the school searched.

Finally, relying on Edogawa Conan's investigation, the beach behind the school's teaching building was locked.Conan Edogawa found the target quite suddenly, he only had time to call his companion before rushing out to catch up.

"But to confront such a creature head-on, even I am a little worried." Edogawa Conan's small face was full of great worry, "Kick him unconscious with a football first, and we are afraid that he will fall into the sea and we won't be able to catch him .”

What is the method of kicking dizzy with football?By the way, where is football here?

Oda Sakunosuke felt more and more that this elementary school student was not simple.

"Well, if that's the case, why don't you leave it to me?"

Uesugi Raku snapped his fingers, and the camera hidden behind him flew out like this. Before Edogawa Conan expressed his doubts, he smiled at the screen.

"Good evening, welcome to my live broadcast room, I will fulfill the wisher's wish tonight, but before that—please wait patiently for me to bring him here."

It only took about three seconds for Edogawa Conan to realize that the camera was completely suspended, and there was nothing connected behind it.

Just floating in the air like this!

Edogawa Conan's eyes widened.

At this time, Uesugi Le has already stepped forward.

"Wait, this is too obvious—" Edogawa Conan reached out to stop him, but the child's short hand failed to reach the corner of Uesugi Raku's clothes.

Strangely, the "person" sitting on the reef did not try to escape.It watched the sea quietly, and did not leave even when Uesugi Le approached.

It noticed Uesugi Raku, turned around and stood up, but bent down again, and lowered its head deeply in a submissive posture on all fours.

"I'm here to pick you up, lost servant." Uesugi Le said with a smile, "I will take you back to the world with your believers."

Its body trembled slightly, and its hoarse and sharp guttural voice shattered into words.

"I hate man because I once loved him so much. I long to leave, please take me away."

It is lost in this world, the servant of Cthulhu - the deep diver.

Before the transformation was completed, he also thought that he was just an ordinary human being.He completed his studies normally, got a job, and even fell in love with someone for the first time.

But all this changed with the other party's affair.

The sudden increase of pressure piled up in his heart, and at the same time, his appearance changed.He became more and more terrifying, and his ugly appearance made the people he loved hate him.

"—this is my story, thank you."

"Although it's an old-fashioned story, I accept it." Uesugi Le nodded, "The deal between us is limited to this, but beyond that, your story needs to be handed over to that little detective."

Edogawa Conan: "...what happened?"

Conan Edogawa is about to drop.

In other words, a man in his twenties fell in love with another male college student, and then found out that the male college student was cheating, and then became ugly or even an inexplicable creature when he was too stressed?

Edogawa Conan's cognition is constantly being challenged, so he has to take a deep breath.

Accept the reality, and then use his clever mind to think about the reality.He must know the truth, but whether or not this "deep diver" should be handed over is another level of consideration.

Uesugi Le told him in a low voice that this is a creature from another world, and staying in this world for too long may cause more adverse consequences, suggesting that he let people go.

Uesugi Raku is right. If such a creature beyond ordinary people's understanding is caught, the whole society may be shaken, but Detective Conan only pursues one truth.

"How did that college student die? How did you kill him? What happened to squid feet?"

Asking three times made the deep diver silent for a while.

It stretched its hand into the ocean, and after a while, a squid with a half-arm-sized squid with a broken tentacle climbed into its palm.

That night, it met the college student for the last time very suddenly. After accepting the inheritance of the deep diver, it took a live squid with it and planned to accompany it back to the sea as a friend, but it did not expect to come out. What came was a knife.

The squid had one of its tentacles chopped off, and the deep diver, devastated, walked straight out of the sewer hidden under the dining room table.

"In other words, he didn't kill people."

Uesugi Le confirmed so.

As for the sucker traces on the corpse, it was just sucked out by the squid for a short time when it broke its tentacles.

Edogawa Conan: "Since this is the case, who can do such things as killing people and hiding corpses?"

It was the deep diver who answered him.

"Under the sea, there is a mysterious person near the bottom of the sea. He has a good impression of me, and probably wants me to escape."

The waves beat quietly, and the detective's little head was once again filled with big question marks.

——What the hell, is there someone in the bottom of the sea?

Even if there are people, it is impossible to catch people, Edogawa Conan thinks that there is a high probability that they will be unknown creatures.

In the distance, the light of a searchlight swept over.Uesugi Le asked him: "Can I send him away?"

"But he killed someone..." Edogawa Conan said, before he could refute anything, he suddenly softened and fell down.

The child was quickly caught by Uesugi Raku, and behind Conan Edogawa, the master of stealth, Sakunosuke Oda, who was completely unaware of his movements, withdrew his hand that had been pricked with an anesthetic needle.

"Hurry up." He reminded, "We should go."

The deep divers were drowned in black smoke, and the two placed Conan Edogawa on the reef.

The moonlight was quiet, and there was only the sound of waves beating against the rocks.Except for Conan Edogawa, who was peacefully in a coma, no one was there.
