Chapter 616: Is it really suicide?
"..." Hattori Heiji was planning to cause trouble in the haunted house and originally wanted to refuse to let them lead the way.
But then he thought, the two tall and thin male college students were no match for the policemen he borrowed.
If the two sides met, the two college students in front of them would probably be taken to the side by the police like chickens in an instant, which would not cause too much interference to their "rescue plan".
In addition, Hattori Heiji felt that he had already been suspicious for insisting on bringing Jiang Xia and Amuro Toru to visit the haunted house. If Amuro Toru really had a problem, he shouldn't have increased his suspicion now.
So after failing to refuse politely, he nodded reluctantly.
Takaichi Minetani and Eitsugu Tsuji looked at each other and gave each other a knowing smirk.
——They took the initiative to lead the way, of course not only to let the guests visit all the facilities, but also to scare these guests who came to the door with great difficulty, and make today's stall setting up worthwhile.
Considering that people who often see corpses should be braver than ordinary people.
Eitan Tsuji and Takaichi Minetani decided to step up their efforts.
- First, he acts as a guide and walks with the guests; then, he suddenly transforms himself into a "ghost" that should be in a haunted house.
This kind of plot of "the companion we thought was actually a ghost" and "the evil ghost is among us" will definitely bring the scare effect they want.
…
Only An Na and Katori Mutsu were seen entering the haunted house.
After a while, the simple little light on the sign at the door finally lit up.
——This means that the two female college students in the haunted house are now ready and the guests can start the experience at any time.
Let’s go, Takaichi Minetani lifted the door curtain and walked in with Eitsugu Tsuji.
Jiang Xia and others quickly followed.
As everyone entered the haunted house, the black cloth behind them was lifted and lowered again and again, and finally covered them completely.
The surrounding vision became completely dark. Like many haunted houses on the market, the light here was dim, the roads were complicated, and the eerie music was loud.
As soon as Jiang Xia entered the house, he habitually borrowed the night vision ability from the ghosts.
Then he looked around with a little curiosity, and suddenly felt bored.
——Without the cover of darkness, all the mechanisms in the corners were exposed to his sight. Although the faces of those dummies that were ready to move were hideous and their broken limbs were horrifying, once the wires dragged behind them and the various sliding mechanisms under their bodies and at their joints were added...the degree of terror suddenly decreased sharply.
"..." There must be a reason why the haunted house likes to dim the lights...
The other ghosts have more or less seen the world and have a general understanding of the situation in the haunted house.
Only Xiaobai looked around, sighed in disappointment, and muttered in dissatisfaction. It was clearly called a haunted house, but there were no ghosts or monsters in it... This was a fraud, a fraud.
Although Jiang Xia already knew the styles of these haunted houses, he couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
…
Although it received bad reviews from ghosts and psychics.
However, for ordinary people whose vision is greatly affected by light, this haunted house can be called professional. The various dummies are made in detail, and the wires and mechanism bearings that make people feel distracted are also hidden in the shadows that are not easy to be found.
Yuanshan Heye would occasionally be frightened by the "zombies" that jumped out from all kinds of strange angles; the roars of the zombies, which came from far away and sometimes near, also made people feel creepy.
But overall, everything is fine: unfamiliarity will bring more fear to people, but Yuanshan and Ye are actually not unfamiliar with this place.
——When Jiang Xia was playing a minor role just now, she and Hattori Heiji sneaked in. This haunted house was built in a corner of the campus, using a stage as a backdrop. The three "walls" were actually made of solid cloth. As long as you were thick-skinned, you could just push them aside and enter without disturbing the owner of the haunted house.
So now, she would just scream out reflexively when she was startled, but she still remembered clearly in her mind what she should do next. She looked at Jiang Xia with anticipation and eagerness, and her beautiful almond eyes seemed to be burning with an illusory flame of struggle.
…
Takaichi Minetani and Eitsugu Tsuji led the way.
Hearing the occasional screams from behind, the two turned around and looked: "How is it, not bad, right?"
Jiang Xia nodded politely.
Seeing that the guests did not give much comments, the two male college students turned back and chatted among themselves: "Speaking of which, it would be nice if Hashiguchi could see these finished products."
"Yeah. The haunted house, the mechanisms and facilities used, the graduation project... all were his ideas. That guy is really a genius."
Hattori Heiji was thinking about something else.
But at this moment, hearing this, he still instinctively became puzzled and interrupted, "Why can't he see it? Did that Hashiguchi drop out of school?"
Jiang Xia and Yuanshan Heye also looked over in confusion.
"..." Toru Amuro has been dealing with a lot of cases these days. Thinking of the two male college students' regretful words just now, "It would be nice if Hashiguchi could take a look at it," he suddenly had a vague guess in his mind.
Sure enough, the next second, Fengtani Takaichi's tone became low.
He sighed, "He didn't drop out of school. He committed suicide. He took poison, just a month ago."
Toru Amuro: "..."
He was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Is it really suicide, not murder?"
"……?"
The two male college students thought his question was a bit strange. Who would say "it was actually murder" when hearing about suicide? Even detectives would only say such ridiculous words after discovering obvious doubts.
However, as one of the first people to discover the body, the two students subconsciously began to defend themselves.
Takaichi Minetani said, "Of course it is. There is no doubt about it. Hashiguchi had a terminal illness and his condition deteriorated rapidly. He only had six months to live. After his death, the police found a suicide note in his home - a handwritten and dated suicide note, not one of those machine-printed ones in suspense novels."
Tsuji Eizun also nodded: "The four of us who found the body and the suicide note happened to be me, him, and the two girls you saw at the door just now.
"It was after that that Ancai suddenly became extremely enthusiastic about filmmaking, saying that she wanted to dedicate the highest art to the deceased Hashiguchi. This time she insisted that you see if her corpse looked like the real thing, for the same reason, right, Minetani... um? Minetani?"
Tsuji Eizun looked around in confusion and stopped.
Noticing that there was suddenly one person missing, his tone became puzzled: "Where is the person?"
Jiang Xia was startled, and followed him to look around, pretending that he didn't see anyone sneaking away quickly along the small road.
