Chapter 1018 1026 [You know too much] Add more to the leader [Book Friends 2039]
"The earliest scene must have been in the club activity room!" Suzuki Sonoko tried hard to provide the information she knew.
Before I knew it, it was dark.
The only three remaining people left the scene before the police could react and quickly headed for the activity room.
…
After going down to the first floor, Jiang Xia glanced at the computer desk and stopped his gaze on the desktop: "...The first scene is really here."
——There was a bit of fresh blood splattered on the table.
Suzuki Sonoko stood beside him, looking down at the table. For some reason, she felt cold all over, as if she was being stared at by a pair of invisible eyes.
She shuddered and turned her head in fear, trying to dispel this groundless fantasy.
Who would have thought that when I turned around, I would actually meet a pair of eyes hidden in the cracks.
“Ahhh——!” Suzuki Sonoko jumped up and pointed out the window, “There’s someone!! There’s someone over there!”
The eyes at the window suddenly left, and the peeping person turned and ran away.
However, just after he ran a few steps, he heard a "swish" sound behind him and someone jumped out of the window of the activity room.
After a few seconds, a hand was placed on his shoulder, and he was pushed around and thrown against the nearby wall.
The peeper bumped into the wall with a thud, feeling dizzy and forced to stop.
Jiang Xia blocked his way, looked at him for a moment, and recognized him: "...security guard?"
He lowered his eyes slightly and saw that the security guard who was always hanging around them was holding an extremely heavy book in his arms - the "30 Years Journal Collection" that should have been lost.
"This...I found it next to the recycling point."
The security guard followed Jiang Xia's gaze and looked into his own arms.
He was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind: "Since you are also members of the 'Mysterious Phenomenon Research Society', I'll leave this to you!"
He suddenly put the thing in his hand into Jiang Xia's hand and ran away quickly.
The force used was too great and the action was too sudden. Jiang Xia was shaken by the brick-like pile of books. When he came to his senses, the security guard had already run away: "..."
"What's going on?" Kudo Shinichi caught up.
As soon as I stood firm, I found a pile of things in my arms.
Jiang Xia handed him the book and patted the dirt off his hands: "The lost bound volume has been found."
Kudo Shinichi looked at the book in his hand, not paying attention to the dust on his clothes, and his eyes lit up.
He remembered what Sakuragi Ruriko had said before - the key to unlocking the "Seventh Wonder" was in this set of association journals spanning 30 years.
…
"1987 was a sad year for our Mysterious Phenomenon Research Society. The police tried every possible means but failed to find the whereabouts of classmate Chihiro Aoyama. The only thing she left behind was this manuscript she wrote before she disappeared."
In the activity room, Jiang Xia followed the precious marks left by Huihara Ai before her "death" and found information related to the case.
It is difficult for three people to read a book together.
He continued to read the manuscript left by "Qingshan Chihiro": "In order to find out the six mysteries of Fudo High School, I launched an investigation..."
"Six Wonders?" Suzuki Sonoko came close to Jiang Xia, looked at the "six" written in black and white on the paper, and couldn't help but raise her hand and knock on her forehead, suspecting that she had been stimulated too much and her memory was confused, "I thought it was seven wonders..."
"It is indeed the 'Seven Greats' now, but this is a manuscript from ten years ago." Jiang Xia reminded her, "Times and legends are progressing."
Suzuki Sonoko crossed her arms and shuddered: "..." It's better not to progress in this kind of horrible legend...
Beside him, Jiang Xia glanced down at his watch and continued to read Qingshan Chihiro's manuscript:
"During the investigation, I discovered something strange - 20 years ago, the location of the old school building was actually the research institute of Takahata Pharmaceutical Company. I heard that six people disappeared nearby. I think..."
The manuscript suddenly stops here.
Jiang Xia pressed his forehead: "..."
...Forget about life, but why are there so many riddlers in the game?
He was silent for a moment and looked at the page next to him.
——Although Chihiro Aoyama only wrote an introduction to her "investigation report", perhaps to make up the number, or perhaps out of respect for the deceased, all the information she collected was copied and stuffed into this issue of the "Mysterious Phenomenon Research Society" journal.
The three of them quickly glanced at a few pages, and suddenly a slight ripple appeared in their vision.
Kudo Shinichi was startled and raised his hand to press his eye sockets.
After a moment, he realized that it was not a problem with his eyesight, but that it was time to go home from school - the last time, it was around this time, they were suddenly teleported back home because "they should not stay in school after school."
“……”There is almost no time left.
Kudo Shinichi suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Jiang Xia: "Don't act alone at night, it's too dangerous!"
After a pause, he felt that this was not very realistic - if it were him, facing the truth that was so close at hand, he probably wouldn't be willing to stay at home all night and do nothing.
So he cleared his throat and added in a low voice: "Well, remember to call me when you get to school and ask my parents to let me out..."
…
Not long after, several people opened their eyes and found themselves back at "home".
Jiang Xia's house was empty and there was no obstacle to going out.
He walked to the door and looked outside. The house that was originally faintly lit was now completely dark - the lights in Mao Lilan and Huiyuan Ai's house had all disappeared.
When passing by Hattori Heiji's house, Jiang Xia took a curious look through the window.
I saw Hattori Heiji with a bandage that said "Root!" tied around his head, writing furiously at his desk.
Jiang Xia: “…” Osaka-san is really a man with many misfortunes.
He sighed and continued walking towards the school.
…
When he arrived at the activity room, Jiang Xia called two classmates to summon them.
Then he remembered something and turned on the computer next to him. This computer was actually connected to the Internet. Jiang Xia typed in the keyword "Takahata Pharmaceutical" and pressed Enter. Messages quickly popped up on it.
His eyes quickly scanned the information on it. After a moment, his gaze suddenly stopped on the screen.
...It's not that I saw more crucial information.
Instead, in the darkness, a figure was reflected on the screen. The person was holding a hammer high and standing quietly behind him.
Jiang Xia: “…” Do I know too much again?
…
A few minutes later.
Suzuki Sonoko and Kudo Shinichi ran to the door of the activity room, looked at the door, and were stunned for a moment.
——The door of the activity room was actually open.
"...Jiang Xia?"
The two men walked into the house carefully, took a quick look, and their breathing suddenly stopped.
——Inside the room, the computer was on. Beside the computer desk, documents were scattered all over the floor, and Senior Yingshu's precious bound volumes were scattered. It seemed that a fierce battle had just taken place here.
