"What's coming?"
As soon as I spoke, the girl ran out crying, followed by a scream and uncontrollable crying.
"Tomoko, Tomoko. Woo hoo hoo...."
Resisting the severe headache, I leaned on the wall and wobbled towards the outside. I saw that the girl arrived at a bedroom at some point and was sitting on the ground, facing the opened wardrobe.
In the closet, Sophon just now was sitting in a twisted posture, with his head raised slightly, eyes and mouth wide open. It looked terrible.
The police arrived quickly, wearing different uniforms than I had recognized. Only then did I know that the girl who died was called Tomoko, and the girl who was still crying was called Masami. My identity is Tomoko's friend.
After some questioning, the police cordoned off the scene, and Yami was also taken away by her parents. I don't have any impression of this place at all, I can only wander around by myself.
I managed to get a little money that looked a little weird, and I finally settled down. My idea is very simple, this place should be an illusion, although it is a bit strange.
Hanging out every day, experiencing exotic customs, until I received a call.
This is the cell phone that has been on me all the time, and it has been ringing frequently these days, but it is just a routine questioning by the police, but this time it is different, it is a call from a girl.
I hope I can attend Tomoko's funeral, well, it sounds like it should be a funeral. I did not reject this, to understand all this, only from the very beginning.
I believe that my strange identity is definitely not arbitrarily arranged. Of course, I don't think I have time-traveled.
Following a strange worship, I walked out with a few people who obviously knew me.
They are all young girls, about 17 or 8 years old, wearing uniforms with a small name tag on their chests: Yokohama Seiki Girls' Academy.
The white paper lanterns written at the door were a little dim. We stood by the door, and the oppressive atmosphere made everyone seem a little silent.
I looked around, and I was the only one who knew them, because it was one of the girls who called me.
Seeing everyone whispering about irrelevant issues, I was about to ask about Tomoko when a professional woman in black came over.
"Excuse me, do you know the girl who died in the car?"
In the car, didn't Tomoko die in the closet? I was a little puzzled, I had seen this woman just now, with a child of a few years old, she seemed to be a relative of Tomoko.
After hearing the woman's words, the three girls looked at each other, lowered their heads, and the woman continued with a comforting smile: "Can you tell me what you know?"
"They all died on the same day." The girl with the ponytail shifted her eyes: "Haruko, Tomoko, and Iwata. It is said that it was because of watching the video."
"Video tape?" the woman in uniform asked, but the girl with the ponytail had already looked away.
A short-haired girl next to her looked at the woman in uniform and said, "Yaozi said that everyone has seen that strange video tape, and the phone rang after watching it."
The subdued woman seemed to know something, and asked, "Tomoko has seen it too? Where is it?"
The girl with the ponytail continued, "They watched it when they stayed overnight. When Tomoko died, Masami who was with her was sent to the hospital because of insanity."
The girl who didn't speak all this time continued: "I also said that I would never go to a place with a TV. Only..."
As she spoke, the girl pointed at me: "He's fine."
I suddenly felt a little dizzy, and spoke as if it was abnormal that I was fine.
The woman in uniform looked at me, pursed her lips and asked, "Have you watched the video?"
I shook my head: "No."
Then he recounted what happened that night, and the subdued woman nodded her thanks and left.
I asked curiously: "What video tape?"
Soon I learned that the so-called tape was a legend.
Legend has it that a scary woman will appear in the video, saying that you will die in a week, and when you watch TV late at night, she will call, which is the omen of death.
And several people have already died. The names they mentioned just now, including Tomoko, all died because of this.
I was speechless. I fell into a fantasy while investigating online murders, and now I encounter videotape murders. Could it be that this is a fantasy setting within another fantasy, so that people can never leave.
I was thinking, and the three girls continued to chat. From their uncertain words, I knew that a man and a woman died in the car, and they were all people who watched the video with Tomoko.
They died in the closed car, like Sophon, with their eyes and mouth wide open, and the cause of death was cardiac arrest.
This is exactly the same as the method of death in Internet killings. Two similar things made me very confused.
After thinking for a long time, I decided to find out about the videotape first. After all, I have no way to participate in the online murder.
And my disappearance will inevitably allow people from Wu Jian and Fanlou to participate in the investigation, and their strength is much greater than mine now.
It's just that I don't have any clues now, and I don't know where to start. I watched TV all night, and I didn't hear any phone ringing.
One day, I was wandering the street boredly, but I saw that woman in uniform again, she was facing the garden, looking at something.
Walking over curiously, I found that she was flipping through a stack of photos, looking very seriously, and didn't notice my arrival.
The people in the photo are Tomoko and her friends.
Suddenly, the subdued woman stopped looking at the photos. This is a group photo of four people, and the scenery and bodies behind them are very normal.
But the faces of the four people in the photo have become very blurred, not only blurred, but also distorted, which looks very strange.
"Is this something wrong with the flushing?"
My sudden words startled the woman in uniform, her hands shook, and the photos scattered all over the floor.
After saying sorry, I helped her pick up the photo, only the group photo was not returned to her, but held in front of her and looked at carefully.
After a while, I passed the photo over: "Is this real? It's about the video tape."
The woman forced a smile: "How is it possible, it's just a legend."
After finishing speaking, the subdued woman nodded and planned to leave, but I stopped her: "Maybe I can help you. Tomoko is also my friend."
The woman's footsteps paused, and then she took another step.
I also spoke again: "I will go to the place in the photo. There may be clues there."
The woman in uniform stopped again and turned to look at me: "This is just a legend."
"Then there's nothing wrong with me going, is there?"
The woman in uniform was silent for a long time before she nodded: "But you have to listen to me."
I agreed indifferently, made an appointment with the woman, and returned to the small hotel where I was staying, and I also knew the woman's name.
Reiko Asakawa.
