The Hundred Stories of Miss Ghost

"The girl just now ... also committed suicide because of playing that 'Blue Whale Game'? What kind of magic power does that game have, so that people will commit suicide after playing it?" I sighed subconsciously.

Xiaotong replied: "Judging from the reports on TV, it seems that they will invite you to a group on the Internet, and then assign you a task every morning for you to do. Psychological principle."

"Is it true that if you play, you will definitely die? Will someone as optimistic as me play and die?"

Xiaotong curled her lips, "Tsk, people who are already dead should not say such things."

Yiyu looked at Xiaotong and asked curiously, "What are you talking about with Ning Meng?"

"It's about the Blue Whale game." Xiaotong briefly introduced the matter, including the connection between the girl's death and the game.

"So that's how it is...is it a game where you will commit suicide as long as you play it?" Kazuha pinched his chin and pondered for a while, then suddenly said, "Have you ever thought about this possibility? You didn't play this game People are bound to die, but people who want to die or are ready to die play this game? You mentioned just now that a child who was bullied at school died because of playing this game, right? Could it be because of being bullied? Bullying, she already had the idea of ​​wanting to die, but this game just pushed her to take the last step? And the girl just now is the same, she is a gloomy child at first glance, right? Most people who believe in that kind of cult They are all psychologically fragile people, right? That’s why they need religious support. Perhaps this game just strengthens the original thoughts in their hearts.”

Xiaotong nodded as if realizing something, "It's not the game that kills people, but the game chooses people who are likely to commit suicide? Makes sense..."

"Tsk, if you want to understand this kind of thing, it won't help you find the organizer of this damn game!"

I was faintly angry, the "koala" in the toilet cubicle, and the female high school student in the religious assembly, as far as we know, there are already two people who died because of this blue whale game, and Nanako also It is strongly suspected, but judging from the news, there are more and more people dying because of this game where we can't see it.

I really want to know what kind of person the organizer of this game is, and for what purpose he organized such a game.

It's just that it seems to be stuck in a bottleneck now, where can I get information about this game?I'm a little lost.

Kazuha looked at the sky, the sun was still shining brightly.

"It's still early, do you want to go shopping?"

"I'm going! Didn't I say I'm going to choose clothes for Xiao Tong! Please trust my taste!"

Fuck his Blue Whale game organizer, now nothing is as important as choosing a private server for Xiaotong!

"Forgive me to decline!" Xiaotong uttered an unyielding cry.

…………

"Xiao Tong, how about it, this match is perfect!"

"…………good."

"Why don't you honestly admit 'ah, I'm so cute'?"

"Hmm... Although it's really cute, it doesn't feel like it can be worn out to meet people. This requires a thick skinned city wall."

"It's just a gothic lolita outfit, there are a lot of things to try on here!"

"Why do I subtly feel that you seem to be playing with me as a dress-up doll...?"

"You just found out, having a cute dress-up doll is every girl's dream in childhood! Look, I have prepared winning underwear here!"

"Get lost! Who would wear that thing!"

Carrying several handbags, we finally walked out of the department store.

"The harvest is full, is there anything else you want to visit next?"

Xiao Tong tilted her head, and then said, "There happens to be a place that is relatively close, and I want to drop by to see it."

After walking through several streets and gradually stepping into an alley that I felt somewhat familiar with, I immediately understood where Xiao Tong wanted to go.

Finally, we stopped in front of a store.

The name of the store is 99 grocery store.

Kazuha felt very curious, "What kind of store is this?"

Xiaotong ruthlessly complained: "A black-hearted store that specializes in strange supplies, and if you are not careful, you may sell yourself."

Kazuha didn't understand yet, but Xiaotong had pushed the door open and walked in.

"Welcome~~" It's different from the last time I came here, when I came in this time, there was actually a waitress bowing to welcome me.

"Silly knife, are you still working here?" I greeted the girl dressed as a clerk.

Hearing my voice, Tsukiyomi Shrine's antique imperial sword, a word that has been passed down from generation to generation, suddenly burst into tears, "Master Mochizuki, please help me, and quickly rescue me from this black shop!"

"It's strange, didn't you use the wood of the god tree to help you pay off the ransom debt?"

That's the wood of the god wood that almost became a god for thousands of years. At that time, Xiao Tong said that she would use the wood to repay the favor she owed to the store manager, and then use it to redeem Yiwen Fuxue. Finally, she asked the black-hearted store manager to use some wood. She built a shrine for the White Snake God, and repaired the damaged shrine by the way. She felt that her request was too much, and she was going to argue with the store manager again, but the black-hearted store manager Sifang Qiuzao immediately agreed. Xiaotong suddenly felt as if he had lost a hundred million.

Fubuki whimpered and said, "But when I came to deal with the store manager, I accidentally broke an expensive plate, and then I got a debt..."

I looked towards the counter, and saw that the businessman who couldn't see his neck immediately lifted his head from his neck, then quickly put the teapot on the table into his neck, and then put his head on it. Going back to the distance, looking away, pretending that nothing happened.

???

Did I just see some strange operation?

"Shop Manager Sifang...Excuse me, what kind of plate did Fuxue smash?"

"Oh, that... that's Tang Sancai, which is priceless! It's a superb antique, and of course it's very, very expensive! Seeing it break, my heart is bleeding! Isn't this Should she be made to compensate!" Sifang Qiuzao said the excitement, the flesh on his face was trembling.

"Can I see the remains of that antique?"

"It's a pity... because I couldn't bear to see the broken antique, I already threw it away."

"So are there any pictures?"

"Because I was too sad, I was afraid of looking at the photos and thinking about things, so I destroyed all the photos."

"...So, how much do you want Fubuki to pay?"

"The 99-year contract of sale..."

"Ok??"

"Or, or... use any strange item in exchange? It can't be cheaper! It's all written in the contract!"

"Wonderful thing?" It was the first time I heard this word.

"Wonderful things refer to items that gather legends or beliefs. For example, the fox mask and the sunny doll I gave you before are both strange things. Miss Fuxue is even more cherished. She was born from strange things Fusangshen."

I thought of the mask that could imitate human voices, and the sunny doll that could be used as a sacrifice on behalf of a human being, and I seemed to understand what a strange thing is.Judging from the way this fat man is so generous and can give Xiaotong a casually, it shouldn't be hard to find, right?Anyway, he also said that any strange object is fine, so assuming there is a prop such as "a toilet that makes a fart sound when you sit on it", it should also count.

Xiao Tong, who was silent for a while, suddenly asked Sifang Qiuzao at this time: "Wonderful things are items that gather legends or beliefs? These things should have some special effects, so, store manager, will you Is there a strange thing that can make people commit suicide unconsciously?"

Chapter 15 Railway Crossing

"A strange thing that can make people commit suicide?"

Sifang Qiuzao shook his head and thought for a moment, then said, "This kind of thing...it seems that there are indeed, and there are quite a few of them, such things...are usually called 'cursed things'. There are many such things in history, right? Items that cause the holders to die one after another strangely."

"A cursed thing..." Xiao Tong lowered his head and muttered to himself.

At this time, I excitedly raised my hand and replied: "Cursed items, I know this! I have found some supernatural items when I was investigating some supernatural items. For example, a statue made in 3500 BC, it Every holder of the statue died, even the family members of the holder died. This statue was later called the "Goddess of Death". There is also the "Busby Chair", it is said that anyone who sat All the people in the chair died, and 63 people died in front and back!"

"However...these things will bring misfortune only if they hold these items, right? The deceased who committed suicide because of the Blue Whale game...doesn't seem to have all held the same item at the same time."

Yiyu, who had been standing aside, was confused at this moment: "I think it's because Xiaotong, you are thinking too much... Maybe it has nothing to do with those supernatural objects. Those dead people just participated in that game and were instigated to commit suicide. Dead, in fact, there is no supernatural element."

"It's possible...but what is the purpose of the organizer of this game?"

"Hmm... sadist? There must be that kind of anti-social person who likes to see other people's pain for pleasure."

Xiaotong pursed her lips and stopped talking, seeming to accept this statement.

However, I understand that there are indeed some supernatural elements behind this incident, that is, the mobile phone that Nanako left behind.

At night, the screen saver of the mobile phone will change to the image of the weird lakeside, and the "koala" who is suspected of killing himself because of the blue whale game sent me a message inviting me to go "over there".

What exactly is "over there", I am more and more curious now.

----

In the Tsukiyomi Shrine at night, Nanako's mobile phone was floating in front of me.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" I chatted with Ning Meng.

"Because, there is no faster way to obtain information, right?"

"Aren't you going to tell Xiaotong?"

"If you tell her, there is a high probability that you will be stopped?"

"That's right, as expected, it's still no match for curiosity."

"Curiosity is the most important quality we have."

Ning Meng used the account of [Poisonous Mushroom] to send a message to [Koala Bear]——

【Poisonous Mushroom】Is it there?

Our thoughts are quite simple and straightforward. Since we suspect that the koala bear is related to the blue whale game, we should go directly to ask!

Xiaotong said before that even a ghost would have the risk of dying, but if everything is so restrained, then nothing can be done!

The message was replied very quickly, so fast that one wondered if the other party had been online all the time.

[Koala Bear] Hello, how are you thinking?Ready to join us?

[Poisonous Mushroom] Did the girl who committed suicide by jumping off a building in the commercial street today be your fault?

[Koala Bear] It is indeed related to us, but it seems a bit inappropriate to say that we did bad things. It should be said that the child chose to come to the new world earlier and become our partner.

[Poisonous Mushrooms] So, being your partner means to make them commit suicide?So unfortunate for the guy you've chosen to be your partner.

[Koala Bear] No, the term "suicide" is wrong. To be precise, it is to abandon the past body and obtain a new life in the new world. Abandon the tangible and mortal body and resurrect into an immortal body ,Is not it good?If you can invite more friends to join us, your status in the new world will be higher, right?

[Poisonous Mushroom] This sounds like a pyramid scheme.

[Koala Bear] No, this is not a pyramid scheme.MLM is just bragging about an impossible prospect, luring others to join in and absorb the blood of latecomers.But what if that rosy prospect is real?That's not pyramid schemes, but evangelism.The old world will eventually be destroyed, and the new humans will live forever in the new paradise. The number of new humans is limited, so why don't you come and join us?

[Poisonous Mushrooms]... How do I feel like I have heard a theory similar to this somewhere today.Religions have been trying to predict the end of the world for hundreds of years, but none of the predictions have been correct. How can you prove that what you said is correct?

[Koala Bear] How do you prove that... is it?

[Poisonous Mushroom] That's right.

[Koala Bear] Then, please come to this place on time at 4:35 pm tomorrow.

The other party sent a strange location. This location is an ordinary street in Tokyo, and there seems to be no noteworthy landmarks around it.

【Poisonous Mushroom】Is this a trap?

[Koala Bear] This is to let you witness a corner of the new world with your own eyes.

"Senior Mochizuki, you dragged me to this place for no reason, what do you want to do?"

Xiaotong puffed her mouth and said a little unhappy that she had been lying on the tatami like a salted fish all morning playing mobile games, and I dragged her out forcibly.

"Little Tong, use your psychic eyes to look around carefully and see if there is anything wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Xiaotong looked around in confusion.

This is not the city center, it is a relatively remote place. We are standing on a street with a railway crossing in front of us. There are yellow and black "X" signs interlaced, as well as dense signs and lights. In our Behind him, there should be a shopping street full of various signboards.

On the opposite side of the crossing, I don’t know how far away, there is probably a middle school, and some boys and girls in uniform can be seen sporadically passing us, and continue to pass through the shopping street behind us.

Just to be on the safe side, I actually came almost half an hour earlier than the time of "4:35" that "koala" told me, so as not to miss something, but I waited for a long time, except for coming and going Other than the people, I didn't see anything strange.

Xiaotong was already super impatient, she stared at me and said: "Senior sister, what do you want to do! No, you are still a hidden railway enthusiast! Don't just because you want to watch the tram pass the railway crossing It took me out to bask in the sun for almost an hour!"

"No! No!" I didn't know how to explain to Xiaotong, so I could only say, "Wait a little longer, just wait a little longer!"

It's only a few minutes until the 4:35 koala promise, is something really going to happen?

At this time, the sound of "clang, clang, clang" began to be heard from the railway crossing, the two red signal lights under the yellow and black crosses began to flash alternately, and the railings slowly fell. Obviously, a train was going to pass here soon.

I saw, on the opposite side of the crossing, came five girls in sailor suits, they looked petite and cute, probably junior high school students, they were talking and laughing along the way, and then stopped in front of the railing, While patiently waiting for the train to pass by, he was still talking about some unknown topic with a smile on his face.

It was 4 minute before 35:1, and nothing strange was found.

At this time, I suddenly found that on the opposite side, after those middle school girls, I saw a figure, and... that figure looked... always very familiar.

That...should be Sakurai, right?

I could already hear the whistle of the train not far away. At this moment, I suddenly saw that the five girls on the opposite side of the crossing suddenly stopped talking and laughing at the same time as if they were telepathic. They were like puppets. Faced me directly, all the luster in the pupils lost.

When the train was only tens of meters away from the crossing, the five girls bowed their heads and got through the railing, and then stood in the middle of the railway in a daze. The five held each other's hands and rushed I show a faint smile.

The next moment, the train roared by.The blood splashed all over Xiaotong as if filling it with a basin and pouring it out.

A crushed arm fell to the feet of Xiaotong and me, and I saw a whale pattern engraved on the blood-stained broken wall.

The train was obviously slowing down, but it couldn't stop for a short time.When it passed, I saw that there was no one on the opposite side of the crossing.
