As the future star of the Neon Metropolitan Police Department, the chubby Inspector Megure looked at the corpses and bones in front of him, couldn't help but suck on his pipe and fell silent.
Inspector Megure looked very kind, but after seeing the tragedy in Asada Town, he was speechless for a moment, and finally said slowly: "How is it, is there anyone alive here?"
"The survivors were extremely frightened, and some have even gone crazy. We have separated them and comforted them."
Megure's assistant, the mustached detective named Mori, spoke in a panic, "The only person who can communicate with us at the moment is Mr. Daisuke Asada, the person who called the police."
"Please ask Mr. Daisuke Asada to come over. We have something to ask him."
Inspector Megure casually gave instructions to Assistant Mori, his eyes fixed on the stone tablet in the center of Asada Town without shifting their focus at all.
[Do not offer sacrifices to evil gods, and do not worship obscene temples. ]
[The evil creature Asada has been destroyed, and the Yin-Yang Dao remains. 】
The stone tablet engraved with Chinese characters looked somewhat ancient, and was also filled with a sense of mystery and weirdness, making it difficult for Inspector Megure to divert his gaze.
The Japanese language originated from China. After thousands of years of development, Chinese has become an indispensable language for Japan. Whether it is calligraphy or seal carving, Japan prefers to use Chinese rather than characters created by itself.
"Why did Asada Town carve this kind of stone tablet? Did some legend happen a long time ago?"
Inspector Megure murmured softly, he just thought that this stone tablet was passed down in Asada Town and didn't think too much about it.
Looking at these skeletons, after preliminary inspection, most of them died within 24 hours, but the minimum time of death for the rest was more than one month, and there were even a few skeletons whose age could not be identified at all.
The cause of death of those fresh corpses was mostly due to biting and severe cold. There were also obvious signs of blood and flesh in the mouths of those skeletons that had been dead for a long time. In addition, August was not winter, so Inspector Megure was now under a lot of pressure.
"Is it really a ghost who killed people?"
As a top student who came here from Sakura City, Inspector Megure didn't know much about the local situation. He was only told by his colleagues before coming here that a lot of people had "disappeared" here in the past twenty years.
Therefore, Inspector Megure can now basically conclude that most of the missing tourists were murdered, and these corpses are their remains.
But why did Asadacho want to kill them, what did they do, and what happened today...Inspector Megure knew nothing.
The truth can only be discovered through evidence.
Surveillance and clue investigation have begun in various locations in Asada Town, and the reporter named Daisuke Asada is about to arrive. Inspector Megure believes that everything will come to light.
He will become the star of justice and return to Sakura City in a hurry to show those seniors who look down on him that he is the real reliance of the Metropolitan Police Department!
Thinking of this, Inspector Megure became even more excited. His slightly plump body trembled a little, and he began to think hard about how to solve the case, until Assistant Maori interrupted his thoughts: "Senior Megure, Mr. Daisuke Asada is here."
Inspector Megure looked up subconsciously, and behind the sloppy-looking Inspector Mori, he saw Daisuke Asada, who was not in good spirits.
Nobita Asada is already old and looks a bit greasy. He is an honest otaku who usually just plays games at home. However, facing today's situation, he can still maintain his rationality, which is enough to prove his inner strength.
"Asada-kun, it's our first meeting. Please take care of me."
Officer Megure said to Daisuke Asada skillfully, "You are the first witness to report the case. Can you describe what you saw?"
Originally, Nobita Asada should have followed some of the Neon-style formalities, but he was still a little dazed and naturally would not perform the corresponding etiquette.
"At that time, we went to worship Asada Okami together..."
When this happened, Asada Daisuke naturally knew everything and answered all the questions: "When the skeleton came out of the neighbor Kawakami's house, it happened to be..."
Not only did he tell Inspector Megure what happened today, he also spilled out everything about the previous cases involving the worship of Asada Okami.
He is just an honest stay-at-home guy who has never hurt anyone. He just pays his monthly bills. Now that he is honest, the consequences will not be too serious.
He didn't dare to speak before only because of the priest, but now that this kind of thing has happened, Nobita Asada will naturally tell the police everything.
Between the dead and the living, he was more afraid of the dead.
Listening to Nobita Asada's description, Inspector Megure gradually felt a sense of fear towards Asada Town hidden in the mountains.
Over the past twenty years, one person dies here every two months on average, and yet no one has discovered it. It's really horrible.
However, when he heard that the words engraved on the stone tablet in the center of the square were left by the Yin-Yang Master who had just exorcised the demon, he immediately found it a little ridiculous.
How could there be Onmyoji and ghosts in this world?
He took a deep breath and asked seriously, "Where is the priest of Asada Shrine?"
Daisuke Asada looked at the body lying not far away: "It's lying there."
After that, Asada Daisuke thought for a moment and said, "However, there is an old priest who is not here. He left the town last month and asked his apprentice to continue presiding over the ceremony. I don't know where he is now."
"It was he who suddenly proposed to worship the great god Asada twenty years ago."
Daisuke Asada recalled: "Besides, he was the first to kill tourists..."
