I watched Xiaotong enter the ward, and went up to talk to Nanako: "Hello, Nanako. Don't be afraid, there is nothing scary here, can we talk?"

There was a small slit in the quilt, and then, a voice of extreme surprise came out from the quilt, "Huh? It's... is Sanriyue-senpai?"

"Huh?" Xiaotong didn't expect that the other party would recognize her, and she didn't expect the other party's next reaction.

I saw the figure in the quilt jumping out "whoosh", she hugged Xiaotong's waist, sat down on the ground and cried, "Senior Sanriyue, please help me! Only you can help me!" !"

Xiaotong was a little confused by the opponent's slap, "That... can you let go first? You know me?"

"Yes, yes, Sanriyue-senpai, weren't you a celebrity in our school in the past? And..."

Nanako suddenly stopped talking and stared behind Xiaotong.

"and……?"

"No... nothing..."

"So, what do you want me to do?"

Nanako's reaction was very strange. She looked like she really wanted to speak, but her mouth couldn't be opened as if it was zipped. Her eyes drifted around as if she wanted to express something, but Xiaotong couldn't see it at all. don't know.

Obviously, it was Nanako who wanted to ask for help just now, but now she can't say anything, this sense of contradiction makes people feel abnormal.

Xiaotong turned around and looked around, probably wondering if there was really something unclean around here, but judging from her expression, she probably didn't find anything.

Behind Xiaotong is just a TV in the hospital ward. Some introductions and advertisements about the hospital are playing on the TV in a loop, and there is nothing abnormal at all.

Nanako lowered her head, "Forget it, think about it, actually you can't help me, Mikayue-senpai, so forget it."

"If you don't say it, how do I know if I can help you? Is there any reason why you can't say it?"

"No. Because I suddenly remembered, Senior Sister, aren't you a con artist? Even if you say it, it's just for the liar, it's useless."

"Who are you calling a liar?" Youxiang retorted dissatisfiedly.

Xiaotong still wanted to ask a few more questions, but she didn't expect Nanako to lose control of her emotions suddenly and inexplicably.

"It's annoying! Stay away from me! Don't bother me anymore!!"

She casually grabbed an apple on the bedside table and threw it at Xiaotong.

The apple hit Xiaotong, but it didn't cause much damage, but it managed to make me, Youxiang, and Kazuha glar at the guy in front of me. He and Yiyu pulled out of the ward.

"What, that guy." Youxiang said unhappily, "We want to help her out of good intentions! Is that how she behaves? Thinking about it this way, last time we wanted to find her who was missing, we were so busy. It always feels like a big loss!"

"But there seems to be something hidden..."

Youxiang was dissatisfied and said: "So what if there is something hidden? Look at her attitude, she can do whatever she likes! It has nothing to do with us, just leave it alone!"

Even so, when we finished visiting Youxiang and were about to leave, Xiao Tong still looked thoughtful.

"Still thinking about what Nanako said to you just now?"

"Hmm... She obviously wanted to say something to us, but she couldn't say it. She seemed to be coerced, but there was only a wall behind me and her mother, and there should be no movement behind me at that time. , Why did her attitude change so much...Senior, have you noticed anything?"

"No... but Xiaotong, she called you senior, she should be a first-year junior from your former school, Qingfeng High School, right? Did you know her before?"

"Absolutely not."

"Well...then why was she so excited to see you at first...strange..."

When we said this, we had just stepped out of the hospital gate, and I was turning my head to talk to Xiaotong. As soon as I turned my head, I met a face.

It was an upside-down face, exactly the face of Nanako I had just seen, but compared with the haggard and nervous face I saw just now, what I saw at this moment was a face with two sides of the mouth high The high ground is raised, and the smiling face is filled with incomparable happiness and joy.

Then, in the next instant, I heard a sound like a watermelon falling to the ground.

Chapter 3 Smartphone

I covered Xiaotong's eyes from behind.

"It's okay, senior, I've probably seen many more dead people than you, senior." Xiao Tong tried her best to speak in a flat tone.

"But, are you trembling?"

Yes, now Xiaotong's whole body is trembling, her breathing has become short of breath, her hands are clenched into fists, and even a faint blue vein can be seen on the back of her hands.

Hearing my words, Xiaotong was silent.At this moment, screams and panic began to be heard from around us, and the blood on the ground slowly spread to Xiao Tong's feet like a lake spreading.

"It's alright, senior, thank you, take your hand off, otherwise, you may miss important information."

Noticing that the trembling of Xiaotong's body seemed to have stopped, I slowly put down my hand covering her eyes.

Xiaotong stared at the thing that could be called Nanako under her feet for a long time, then raised her head, glanced in all directions, and finally turned around to look behind her.

But I immediately flew to the roof of the hospital, scanned around, and then went down to meet Xiao Tong.

Let me tell you what I found first: "The door on the roof is open, but I didn't see anyone else."

Xiaotong shook his head, "I... didn't see Nanako's spirit."

According to the knowledge that Xiaotong explained to me before, there are very few people who will become spirits after death, and they often have unfulfilled obsessions or strong resentments.Therefore, it is normal to not see the spirit.

Although the bloody scene in front of him was horrifying, it still couldn't stop many onlookers from gathering.I pulled Xiaotong back to the corner next to her.

Hitomi looked very depressed, so I tried to cheer up the atmosphere and said, "Student Nanako really didn't choose a good landing posture, she landed with her face on the ground... Isn't this death more beautiful than mine at that time~~ She has to learn the lesson from this time next time!"

Xiao Tong was silent, raised her head and gave me a blank look.

Seeing that she didn't send a glance, I had no choice but to continue: "Xiaotong, at this time, you should complain appropriately, 'There will never be a next time!' or 'Senior sister, the posture you chose at that time was very good Is it right?’, that’s right! Otherwise I’ll feel very embarrassed!”

"Senior sister, you are really cold-blooded." Xiaotong said quietly, "The person who was talking just now died before my eyes, and you are still in the mood to make such a joke."

I thought about it carefully, and then spread my hands and said, "Probably because... I don't know her well? People's empathy is limited. If everyone I don't know well dies, I will feel sad. I’m going to be so sad all my life! That’s terrible. However, if it’s someone I know well, it’s different, if you fall from the top, Tong, my reaction will definitely be different.”

"Hmph." Xiaotong turned her face away, "Smart words."

"What are you talking about, I can't hear you?"

"nothing!!"

We watched from the sidelines, and immediately a doctor came out of the hospital building to confirm Nanako's condition, but it was obvious that she died on the spot.Nanako's mother also rushed out of the building immediately, then looked at Nanako's body dully and dumbly, and then sat down on the ground with weak legs.Not long after that, a police car with its siren came in, and the police quickly sealed off the scene, followed by some routine investigations, and even Xiaotong was taken as a testimony by the police.

The person who questioned Xiaotong was a square-looking policeman in his 30s. The police ID he showed said "Police Department Masayoshi Usui", which is an easy-to-remember name.

Xiaotong clearly stated everything she knew, including some of her strange reactions when she saw Nanako today. After she finished speaking, she glanced at the police officer in front of her hesitantly, and asked, "Usui Criminal, do you think... Nanako... really committed suicide?"

Usui glanced at Hitomi in surprise, then scratched the back of his head and said, "Well... Normally the results of the investigation should not be disclosed casually, but the conclusion of this case... is actually very clear, so there is nothing wrong with it." It was concealed. It can basically be judged that Nanako took advantage of the time when her mother left the room, left her last words in the room, and then climbed to the roof and chose to commit suicide by jumping off the building. The hospital at the stairs is monitored, and it is true that Nanako went up alone. There are no other outsiders. In addition, the hospital also confirmed that Nanako’s mental condition is not very good. She has relatively strong nervous sensitivity, depression, anxiety and even some symptoms of delusions of persecution. It is very likely that she will act impulsively. According to The handwriting of the last words she left was basically determined to be written by herself, so the evidence is very clear. Now there are only two doubts, one is how she opened the locked door on the roof of the hospital, and the other is also It's her last words."

The policeman with a big mouth shook out all the details of the case in one breath, but Xiao Tong asked suspiciously after hearing the last word: "Nanako's... last words?"

"Speaking of which, this last word still has something to do with you, classmate Sankaiyue."

Usui took out a piece of post-it paper packed in a transparent evidence bag, and saw a simple sentence written on the piece of paper——

"Mom, I'm very sorry. After I die, please hand over my mobile phone to Senior Mikazuki."

Xiaotong looked at it with a question mark on his forehead, "Give the phone... to me? Why??"

"That's what we want to ask, Sankayue, do you have any contacts with Nanako Echizen that made Nanako give you the phone in her last words?"

"I... I saw Nanako for the first time today, but when Nanako disappeared, I went to her home to help investigate her whereabouts."

"So that's the case. Although you and Nanako both went to the same high school, you transferred before Nanako entered school, so you didn't know her at school at all, right?"

"Correct."

"Then since you and Nanako didn't know each other before, why did you go to her house to help investigate her whereabouts?"

"This... she is... a fan of an online virtual idol operated by my family. She... is very obsessed with that idol, so... we once suspected that her disappearance had something to do with our idol..."

"So that's how it is," Usui Criminal was taking shorthand notes in his notebook, and he asked a few more questions. He roughly figured out what happened before, and then analyzed on his own, "Maybe it's because she is a fan of your idol. , and the mobile phone is her main communication channel with that idol, so giving the mobile phone to the idol may represent a kind of farewell and the meaning of graduation?"

"……maybe."

After criminal Usui finished recording, he picked up a small pink mobile phone in an evidence bag.

"This is Nanako's cell phone. This post-it note was affixed to this cell phone at the time. Generally speaking, we try our best to satisfy the wishes of the deceased. However, this cell phone is one of the evidences, and we have to take it back to the police first." Is it okay for the department to check the contents in an all-round way, and make a backup of the contents, and then give it to you after confirming that there is no problem?"

I couldn't help complaining: "This thing... can I not want it? The dead person gave you a mobile phone, and I always have a premonition that she will call again, which makes people feel a little fuzzy. More things are worse than less For one thing, who cares about a mobile phone, I can even give you the latest and most high-end mobile phone~"

However, after hesitating for a while, Hitomi still didn't accept my suggestion, nodded to Criminal Usui and said, "Okay, then I will trouble you, Criminal Usui."

After that, there were some small episodes, such as Nanako's mother suddenly broke in hysterically, yelling at Xiaotong why Nanako left her mobile phone, what did Nanako's death have to do with her, and so on.Xiaotong kept silent, but Nanako's mother seemed to lose her mind. Fortunately, the police finally pulled her away.

The police handled the case much faster than expected, and we received Nanako's smartphone only in the afternoon of the second day.

Chapter 4

This is a pink ordinary smartphone with cute cat stickers on the shell, which looks quite girly.

Xiaotong and I are very confused holding this mobile phone now, because we really can't imagine why someone would hand over the mobile phone to a stranger who had just met for the first time before committing suicide.

However, it seems that Nanako knows Xiaotong, but she doesn't know where she met.

"Come on, Xiaotong, quickly open the phone and see what's inside!"

"But, rummaging through the things in other people's mobile phones...wouldn't it be bad?"

"Tsk, everyone said that they are going to give you your mobile phone, so they must be trying to convey some kind of information! It means that we can look at whatever we want! Moreover, human curiosity is hard to be restrained! Even if you don't let I see and I will too!"

"All right……"

At my instigation, Xiaotong opened the phone screen.The phone didn't have an unlock password. I don't know if it was not set in the first place, or Nanako decided to cancel the phone after she decided to give it away.

The phone's desktop background is a photo of Nanako herself.

Under the blue sky, there is a lake somewhere. Half of the trestle bridge used for boarding boats extends into the water. Nanako, wearing a school uniform, stands at the end of the trestle bridge with her back to the camera. The scenery in this scene looks very beautiful.

Next, here comes the question, if you accidentally turn on someone else's mobile phone, what information do you want to browse the most at the first time?

For me, that's of course the photo album!

What if you see something you shouldn't see!What if there are passionate photos of the young lady!

"Look at the photo album! Look at the photo album!" I urged Xiaotong to click on the photo album.

The result...was disappointing to me.

Passionate photos... of course there is none.

The number of photos in the album is quite small, and there are only a few photos in a few months, which is unimaginable for a young and beautiful female high school student!Which JK's mobile phone photo album is not full of selfie photos? !

And these few photos are quite weird.

The most recent photo was taken on June 6.

The shooting location should be in the bathroom at home. In a dark bathroom, Nanako raised her mobile phone and took a photo of herself in the mirror. Even darker.

What's even more weird is the time. The mobile phone shows that this photo was taken at 4:03 in the morning.

Taking selfies in front of the mirror in the bathroom with no lights turned on in the early morning, this behavior is weird no matter how you think about it.

Further on, there are several photos with bloodstains drawn on the arms.

Hmm... so dark.Although I have actually met many people who like to do this, most of them are girls, but personally, it is really difficult for me to understand the meaning of this behavior of scratching my own arm, and I can’t die , After being scratched, it still hinders the appearance, which is completely against my aesthetics.

Turning forward again, this time the time span is relatively large, and it can be traced back to May.

In the photo, Nanako was standing in a dark toilet cubicle, taking a selfie with her mobile phone.

There was no light in the toilet, but because of the flash of the phone, Nanako's expression that was about to cry was clearly captured.

The shooting time is 12 midnight.

"This is the women's toilet in the teaching building of Qingfeng High School." Xiao Tong, who had studied there, recognized the location of this place at a glance.

Then this must be the time when Nanako hasn't stayed at home at all.

"It's so dark." I expressed my thoughts on the photos in this album, "And it's hard to understand, what's the point of running to the school toilet cubicle to take a selfie at midnight?"

Xiaotong speculated: "Looking at her expression, she seems very scared. Maybe she didn't do it voluntarily. Didn't it mean that Nanako was bullied at school? Maybe... this is a form of bullying, right?"

"possible……"

From these weird photos alone, it seems difficult to deduce any information, so the next one that may provide the most information is LINE (the most widely used instant messaging software in Japan)!

When I opened LINE, I found that Nanako is indeed a dark character. LINE friends and conversations are also pitiful, and her nickname is also very unique, called [Poisonous Mushroom].

The name of the person she talked to the most was "koala".

However, in the dialogue window, there are all messages from the other party, and there is not a single message from one's own side.
