The Hundred Stories of Miss Ghost
Page 115
The layout here is indeed very similar to the home I had when I was a child. It is the same old and simple wooden structure that has been around for many years. In addition, there is a lot of moisture, and it seems that you can smell a decaying smell with your nose.
"This is Xiaohua's room."
Kannazuki Chihiro opened a door, we stepped in, and immediately saw Xiaohua lying on a bed, covered with a light quilt, with a wet towel on her forehead.
"Who..." Kanna Yue Xiaohua who was lying on the bed made a weak voice.
"Xiao Hua, your friend has come to see you."
"Friend...who?"
Aunt Qianyu had already asked Xiaotong and the others their names, and now she replied, "It's students from Huashanyuan, Sanriyue and Yiwen."
Xiaohua lying on the bed didn't seem to have opened his eyes, and muttered to himself, "Who... where is my sister? Why didn't my sister come over..."
Aunt Qianyu had a worried look on her face, she walked to Xiaohua's side, touched her head with her hand, and then sighed: "I don't know if it's because the temperature is starting to cool down in autumn, Xiaohua caught a cold, As soon as I came back today, something was wrong, I had a high fever, my mind was not clear, and I was talking nonsense just now."
Hitomi walked to Kannazuki's bed and said softly to her, "Kannazuki-san, I'm Hitomi, we just parted ways this morning, do you still recognize me?"
Lying on the bed, Xiaohua reluctantly opened his eyes to look at Xiaotong, then immediately shook his head left and right, and asked anxiously, "Where is sister, where did sister go?"
Aunt Qianyu sighed, picked up a stopwatch from the table next to her, and put it in Xiaohua's hand.
"Did you forget? Your sister went to another place to participate in a competition, and she won't be back in two days. Take this first, isn't this given to you by your sister? Don't worry, she will be back soon, so sleep peacefully for a while okay?"
Xiaohua grabbed the stopwatch that Aunt Qianyu handed her, her expression immediately became relieved, the eyelids of her eyes also seemed to become heavy, they closed slowly, and slowly she seemed to fall asleep again.
Aunt Qianyu turned her head and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, Xiaohua is really unconscious now. We have already made an appointment with the doctor and we will take her to see her tomorrow. So... I'm afraid Xiaohua has nothing to do today. I'm entertaining you."
Xiaotong also quickly apologized: "No, no, it's clearly Xiaohua's fault that she is sick, and we insisted on coming to visit."
I always feel that the meaning of seeing off the guests is already obvious, but fortunately, we have a "brave" like Youxiang who can't understand the air, only to hear her suddenly interject: "That... aunt, we have a It's a very presumptuous request, can we stay here tonight? We are also very worried about Xiaohua's situation, so... just want to spend more time with her, don't worry, we won't disturb Xiaohua's rest of!"
Aunt Qianyu hesitated a little, but she nodded quickly and said: "This is no problem... Just tidy up the room next door and you can live in it, just the three of you..."
"It's okay, auntie, it doesn't matter if we live in the same room!"
"Okay, then you two will accompany Xiaohua for a while? Shall I go and prepare some drinks for you?"
"Ah, auntie, don't bother..."
"It's okay, just wait a moment."
Kannazuki Chihiro exited the room, and Youxiang immediately lay down beside Xiaohua's bed, gently opened Xiaohua's eyelids with her hands, and said softly: "Hey, Xiaohua, do you really not recognize us?"
"Hey, You Xiang, what are you doing to the patient?!" Xiaotong couldn't help but scolded.
"Just to see how Xiaohua is doing? She is definitely not sick like this? She didn't say goodbye to us properly in the morning, why did she become so serious after not seeing each other for an afternoon? I'm sure she's not so sick. Hurry up! Hitomi, have you noticed anything wrong with Xiao Hua and this house?"
Xiaotong stared at Xiaohua seriously for a while, then shook his head. ,
"So far, I haven't found anything... But, since I entered this big house, I have a feeling... I can't breathe. There must be something wrong with this house, but I don't know where it is..."
[You Xiang, have you prepared a mirror? ] I asked Youxiang directly.
"There's a small one." Youxiang took out a mirror from the bag she was carrying, "Senior sister... are you suspicious of the other world in the mirror?"
[Hmm... At present, the overall unknown guy affects the real world through water or mirrors. I guess... Maybe this place is like our school's swimming pool. There is an inner world in the mirror, and the abnormality is hidden in it. there. 】
As I said this, I asked Youxiang to hold the mirror and look in all directions of the room, to see if there was any difference between the world reflected in the mirror and the reality.
However, there is still nothing to be found, even if I use a mirror to take a picture of Xiaohua lying on the bed, I can only get an image exactly like her, not the white long-haired evil spirit I saw in the mirror that night.
[It's strange, is it because the time is wrong, it's still evening, and it's not evening yet?Those weird things only come out in the middle of the night? 】
Xiaotong looked at the flowing water landscape outside through the window, then looked up at the twilight in the sky, recalled the past few encounters, suddenly nodded and said: "It may indeed have something to do with time. Senior sister, you Forgot, when our shrine holds the moon burial ceremony, there is also a strict time requirement. The requirement is "the moon in the water", that is, it can only start when the moon rises to a high place and is reflected in the center of Yuejiantan. If Said... what happened here, if it is really related to Tsukiyomi, it is very likely that it can only be encountered when the moon rises."
[Then... can we just wait? 】
"There is still something to do. Sister, we are still guests, so I am sorry to wander around... But you are not restricted as a ghost, I can trouble you to go around this house to see if there is anything unusual By the way, pay attention to who lives in this big mansion. After all... what happened to Xiaohua's sister Asagiri may not only be caused by evil spirits, but may also be living people..."
Xiaotong didn't finish her sentence, but I completely understood what she meant.
I gestured "OK" to her, and then floated out of the room, looking around.
Obviously this mansion covers a lot of land and has many rooms, but it feels like there are very few people living in it... It is obviously considered a local prominent family, with less than ten people living in it, and a large number of rooms are too large. It's vacant, but the strange thing is that every room has been tidied up in an orderly manner, but it seems... Didn't see one or two servants?
You know, taking care of such a big house is not a trivial matter, and it is difficult to keep it so clean and tidy without a full-time housekeeper.Could it be that because Kannazuki's family's financial situation is actually not good, they don't hire housekeepers, but do the cleaning diligently themselves?
I first drifted to a room in the corner of the house. According to Xiaohua's previous description, this should be the room where Chaowu lived. At a glance, I could see that the floor here is obviously newer than other places, as if to cover up the original one. There are bloodstains, but the layout inside is extremely deserted, and there is nothing worth noting.
I went to the room at the back, which originally belonged to Xiaohua's great-grandmother.Remember, Xiaotong's previous nightmare was being pulled into that room.This room in reality is also ordinary, the only difference from other rooms is that the other rooms are quite transparent, but this room... seems to be "covered" tightly, the doors and windows are tightly closed , The windows are covered with screens, and the environment inside cannot be seen clearly through the windows.
Suspicion began to grow in my mind, and I went straight through the wall and into the room.
Because the doors and windows are closed and the windows are opaque, the interior looks quite dark and gloomy.But this is not a problem for ghosts with night vision.I was a little surprised that the display furniture in the room was so shabby that there was almost nothing there.This is a room prepared for an old man who is nearly a hundred years old at home, right?It turned out that not even a softer chair or cushion could be seen in the room.The members of Kannazuki's family seem to be less filial than Hitomi, and it really looks like the old man is confined in this room and left to fend for himself.
How should I put it... The more I look at this room, the more strange it feels to me, as if this is not a residence for a long-lived elder, but rather... a prison for someone to be locked up firmly generally.
Although I had such a guess, but because there were too few contents in the whole room, I turned around and found nothing, so I had no choice but to go back and meet up with Xiaotong and the others.
Chapter 41 Invitation 【Modify】
"You suspect that Kannazuki's family is suspected of abusing Xiaohua's great-grandmother?" Xiaotong frowned after listening to my description.
【Yeah, there's no reason to leave a nearly hundred-year-old man in such a room with nothing, right?Because last time in Xiaohua's dormitory, didn't a skinny guy like an old witch appear in your dream, Xiaotong?I thought that guy was the great-grandmother, and she was the one behind the scenes, but now... it doesn't look like it... I now feel that there is something wrong with the entire Kannazuki family. 】
Xiaotong pursed her lips, and said disapprovingly: "It's not that complicated, could it be that the old man passed away, and then he packed up all the old man's things?"
[No, no, before, in your earlier psychic dream, Xiaotong, didn't you dream about a time when Xiaohua's sister Chaowu went to visit her great-grandmother?I remember in your description, that great-grandmother was alone in that dark room at that time, and there was no one to take care of her. 】
At this time, Youxiang started to yell from the side: "Oh, what's the use of thinking so much? Let's sneak in at night and investigate what's weird about this house. Isn't it over?! I want it too. Go and investigate this ancient and gloomy old house!"
After hearing Youxiang's words, Xiaotong quickly looked outside nervously, and after confirming that there was no one there, she made a "shh" gesture to Youxiang, and then said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, this is at someone's house, so... …it's not good?"
"What's wrong, isn't that why we came here today?"
After hesitating for a while, Xiao Tong finally nodded: "Okay, then... let's go take a look together at night. This house is a bit weird, everyone, be careful not to fall asleep for a while."
"It's up to you to say~"
----------
tick.
In the silent night, there was a sudden sound of dripping water.
Xiaotong, who was lying on the ground in a daze, trembled in her ears, and then heard another "tick", her nerves seemed to be activated suddenly, and she sat up with a "wow".
what happened?How could I fall asleep? ?
At this moment, Xiaotong's vigilance was at an all-time high. He just said that he must not sleep, but he... fell asleep again?
As a mobile game master, Xiao Tong has such confidence that he can definitely stay up all night as long as he wants to.How could such a self fall asleep in ignorance? !
Xiaotong raised her head sharply.
They now live in a traditional Japanese-style house with a paper sliding door made of washi paper.
At this moment, when Xiaotong raised her head, she saw that there was a beautiful moonlight outside the door reflecting on the paper door, and... the moonlight also reflected a human figure on the paper door.
The shadow of a woman.
Then, the shadow began to move.This way of moving is definitely not walking, because there is no ups and downs at all, and the shadow is like moving towards the distance on the paper.
Xiao Tong instantly opened the paper door without hesitation, and looked out.
There is no one in the corridor outside the door, but... there seems to be a "tick, tick" sound, which is going deep into the distance.
Xiaotong took a quick look at the environment around her. She is now in the room prepared by Aunt Shenwuyu Qianyu for them. However, Youxiang, Fuyuki, and even her senior sister are not by her side, so she tried her best to turn the switch of the room back and forth. However, she couldn't turn on the light, which was enough for Xiao Tong to understand that what she was in now was not the real space, but she might have fallen into a psychic dream again.
Since when was he pulled into the dream?
Xiaotong didn't know.She carefully poked half of her head out from the paper door she had just opened. There was almost no sound outside, and even the original sound of running water disappeared. The "tick, tick" sound of water.
The sound of water sounded farther and farther away at first, but now the sound source seemed to have stopped somewhere in front of the corridor.
Listen...it seems that the voice is waiting for Xiaotong to follow.
Xiaotong is a little bit tangled, she doesn't want to just run around with some weird things, the last dream about the weird guy who wanted to open her stomach is still fresh in Xiaotong's memory.She really doesn't have the ability to protect herself, the most urgent thing to do is to find her senior and reconcile with her.
It's just that Xiaotong yelled a few times, and even tiptoed to Kannazuki Xiaohua's room next door to take a look, but she didn't see her senior at all.Even Xiaohua's figure who should have been lying on the bed disappeared in this world.
In the deep and dark ancient house, it seems that Xiao Tong is the only one left, this feeling makes the well-informed Xiao Tong feel a little shuddering.
"Tick, tick."
The sound still resounded in the depths in front of the corridor, as if there was something invisible standing there that hadn't moved.
"Tick, tick."
The voice seemed to be urging.
Xiaotong thought, being pulled into this dream until now, the source of that voice didn't seem to show any obvious malice towards him. If he planned to attack himself who had no ability to fight back, he should have made a move long ago.So she gritted her teeth, walked towards the direction of the voice, and saw where the voice wanted to take her.
Sure enough, after Xiao Tong walked a certain distance, the sound of dripping water began to move forward again, as if leading the way ahead.
Although Xiaotong couldn't see anything in front of her, when she passed the courtyard and there was a paper sliding door beside her, she could clearly see that although there was nothing in front of her naked eyes, the moonlight seemed to be blocked by something. A female silhouette was left on the paper door.
It wasn't the shadow of the skinny mummy from last time, nor was it the shadow of Aunt Kannazuki Chihiro whom I had just seen.Both of them were wearing loose kimonos, and the silhouette in front of them was obviously wearing a pleated skirt.
"Is it Senior Zhaowu?" Xiaotong felt that he had already guessed who was in front of him.
Xiaotong didn't get any reply.
The voice led Xiaotong all the way through a corridor sandwiched between two ponds, and came to a room with tightly closed doors and windows.Then, the two doors slid open on both sides, but the person who opened the door was completely invisible.And it seemed that nothing could be seen in the house, only the flame of a lit short white candle.
Xiaotong has already recognized that this room is the room where she was trapped in the dream last time, it is the room of Xiaohua and Zhaogiri's great-grandmother.
Could it be that... that horrible monster from last time, is he trying to throw himself into a trap this time?
The senior sister who floated out today to inquire about information also came back and said that the atmosphere in this room is out of place, as if someone is going to be locked up in a prison.
Do you want to lock up that old woman who is said to be nearly a hundred years old?She is the source of everything?
Xiaotong remembered that he had made such a guess to Xiaohua, but she firmly opposed it.She said that her great-grandmother loved and cared for her and her sister, and she would never harm her great-granddaughter.
Really?
Xiao Tong stood at the door and struggled for a long time, no matter how she looked at it, she should turn around immediately, but there was an inaudible voice that seemed to be persuading her to go in.
"Tick, tick."
At this moment, Xiaotong suddenly realized that the sound of dripping water seemed to be very close!
She immediately turned her head to look at her side, and her eyes met a pair of dark eye sockets.
Chapter 42 Kami【edit】
Two lines of blood and tears that had already turned black dried up on the pale face, his ears disappeared, and the long hair that should have been smooth now turned into fluffy and curly weeds. A long sharp opening was drawn, where the blood seemed to be still gurgling, dripping to the ground in a "tick, tick" manner.
Kannazuki Asagiri stood quietly beside Hitomi whose body was completely stiff. She stretched out a hand, pointed to the door, and made a gesture of "please" to Hitomi, and then folded her hands together and made a gesture of "please". "Please" gesture.
Although the appearance was extremely terrifying, Xiaotong really felt that the other party was not hostile to him, but seemed to be eager to let him go in and see something.
"I see, senior."
Xiaotong took a deep breath, raised her legs and stepped into the door.The moment his feet fully entered the room, the door closed behind Xiaotong with a "shua".
Xiaotong swallowed, and slowly, slowly, moved towards the low table in the middle of the room where a small candle was lit.
The inside of this room is even darker than the outside with the moonlight, and it is almost only possible to see the place illuminated by the small piece of candle.
After walking two steps, with the help of the weak candlelight, Xiaotong suddenly saw, on the opposite side of the low table, a little distance away, there was a figure in a kimono kneeling with his head bowed deeply, with long hair Hanging down, naturally covering her entire face.
Xiaotong asked tentatively: "Um... hello, are you Xiaohua's great-grandmother? I'm her classmate..."
Hearing Xiaohua's name, the woman slowly raised her head, but to Xiaotong's surprise, the face on the other person's raised head was much younger than Xiaotong imagined. She even looked very, very familiar.
Wait, isn't this the face of Xiaohua's mother, Chihiro Kannazuki whom I just met today?Why is Aunt Qianyu here? !
"Auntie? Are you Aunt Qianyu?" Xiao Tong asked immediately.
"Qianyu...Qianyu...who is that? It seems...I don't know him." The woman opposite said blankly like a child.
When Xiaotong heard the reply from the other party, her gaze suddenly narrowed.
This answer is so familiar... By the way, this afternoon, when she asked Kannazuki Xiaohua if she still recognized her, Xiaohua answered almost like this.Gives people a feeling of being... particularly insane.
Xiaotong immediately changed the question and asked again: "So, do you still remember the two names 'Xiaohua' and 'Zhaowu'?"
"Xiaohua... Asagiri... remember... I remember, they are... they are... Huh? Who are they?"
The woman stretched out her hands and pulled her hair vigorously, holding her hair and making a painful and hysterical sound——
