"Yes, that's right." Iijima Izumi stared blankly at Pei Qingyi and asked, "Who are you? Are you Kazuya's friend? I don't think I've seen you before?"
"Hello. I'm from China. My name is Pei Qingyi."
"Chinese... Chinese?" Ijima Izumi was obviously very surprised, it took her a long time to react, and said: "I heard that there are a few Chinese tourists coming recently, and a female detective from Kyoto is asking everywhere..."
"Yes." Pei Qingyi nodded and said, "Can we go in?"
"Okay... okay."
Most of the people in Ye Shen Village are hospitable and honest, and they don't have too many ideas, so Iijima Izumi let Pei Qingyi and Sima Zhen come in.
The house is not very big. After changing shoes at the entrance, Pei Qingyi followed Ijima Izumi into the living room. The living room is poorly furnished with only basic furniture. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Iijima Izumi poured two cups of tea and placed them on the table.
"You..." When she handed the tea to Pei Qingyi, she murmured, "Is it because of my sister's disappearance? She is the first person in the village to disappear."
"Hmm. It is indeed because of this reason. Many people have confirmed that your sister, Kobayashi Yingko, was the first person who disappeared from the sky. Moreover, she has not been found since then, so her life and death are still unknown. It may be very impolite. , but we still want to learn more about the 'Shen Yin'."
Iijima Izumi bit her lip tightly, her body trembled slightly at this moment.
"Why are you investigating this matter?"
"As far as I know... At that time, Ms. Izumi, you were with Ms. Yingzi, at the moment when she disappeared. And this is why her disappearance is called 'God's disappearance'. Because you said because of the words."
"I… "
"Please tell us in detail, Mrs. Iijima." Pei Qingyi said solemnly: "Maybe you will find it incredible, but for us, this matter can be said to be life-threatening! I am absolutely not exaggerating at all, no matter what , this strange story circulating in Damuheiling is very important to us. No matter what, we must find out what happened! Please forgive us for being presumptuous, as long as you can assist us in our investigation, you will definitely be satisfied remuneration."
Pei Qingyi then took out a check signed by Sayoko Kamiya, also in the amount of one million. People in this small mountain village naturally don't have a high standard of living, and this kind of remuneration is enough to make them tempted.
"One million?" Izumi Iijima was stunned: "Is this too exaggerated? In fact, I don't really believe in this weird legend. My sister said it was a 'hidden god', but it was just a theory. I don't think my sister is really 'hiding'."
"In any case, please inform me in detail. No matter what kind of details it is, please inform me in as much detail as possible." When Pei Qingyi said this, Sima Zhen who was next to him also spoke a bad Japanese: "Please! Please tell us!"
Iijima Izumi opened her mouth, and finally nodded.
"Okay, let me tell you. Although I don't understand why you want to investigate this matter, but since you are willing to pay so much money, I am embarrassed to say nothing. However, this is indeed a lot on my heart Years. I don’t know if I can help you, but anyway... just listen to me.”
"At that time, we were still very young. We had also heard about the bloody Hasegawa family massacre. At that time, it was really hard to imagine that such a horrible case happened so close to us. Sakurako My sister and I both felt very scared at first, but then she started to be curious. One day, she suddenly said to me: "Izumi, I want to go there and have a look!" At first I felt incredible, no She understood why, but she said, "Because of the things that happened there, most people dare not approach it, but I find it very exciting. Why don't we find a chance to go there once. Quanmei, what do you think?""
"At the beginning, I refused. After all, it was a place where people died, and there were seven people! However, Sister Yingzi insisted very much. In the end, I also agreed. After all, there is also a place without an owner. It’s just the land, so I don’t think there will be anything wrong. Of course, we kept this matter from our parents from the beginning to the end, and didn’t tell them. After all, if we told them, they would definitely not agree. At that time, I also felt that I was very excited, and felt a bit like a game of courage. Then, Yingzi prepared enough food and medicines just in case. Then, we set off at dusk one day with our bags on our backs. When we walked to the mountains on the east side, it was basically dark. When I walked to the front of the suspension bridge, I was a little bit discouraged. After all, when the sky is so dark, go to that house and think about it. It's all scary. Besides, it's time for dinner. If I don't go home, my parents will be worried. But at that time, Yingzi sister was determined to go. Looking back now, if I stop her, That's good."
This past seems to have tortured Iijima Izumi so far, making her feel very painful and sad.
"I understand your feelings." Pei Qingyi said, "Please continue."
"At that time, we walked across that suspension bridge, and when we walked that suspension bridge, I was also very scared, because I had never walked on such a suspension bridge before. I remember... At that time, there were several crows circling above the suspension bridge."
"A crow?" Pei Qingyi suddenly remembered the crow that appeared yesterday when he first arrived at Ye Shen Village.
"That's right... there are a lot of crows in this Great Twilight Ridge, and the number of crows is especially large in the mountains on the east side."
"Go on."
"After walking the suspension bridge, it didn't take too long. However, my sister became more and more excited on the way. She said that she felt like an adventure. Then, sister Yingzi and I finally came to the opposite woods After walking for a while, we finally saw the mansion. The mansion was built in Western style. The mansion has two floors, and weeds are overgrown nearby, and there are several dogs on the roof of the house. The crow kept yelling. The crow and the night were mixed together, and it was even hard to distinguish. The mansion had these white pillars standing on all sides, covering a large area, and there were many places on the outer wall They were all cracked. The nearby grass was as high as knees, and it was very inconvenient to walk. When we... came to the gate of the mansion... "
Having said that, she suddenly lowered her head, looked at the one million yen check, gritted her teeth, and suppressed the tears in her eyes.
"We pushed open the door, and the door was not locked at all. After walking in, we saw a huge living room with a height of at least ten meters. I had never seen such a high room before, so I was very surprised The floor is black and white tiles, and there are pillars connecting the floor and ceiling everywhere in the room. However, there are spider webs everywhere in the room, and the furniture is crumbling. At this moment, it seems that a gust of wind blows over, Close the door behind us completely."
"Then... what happened?" Pei Qingyi asked again.
It is the first time for her to carry out the instructions in blood, but she has analyzed the table of blood many times. She can also imagine how terrifying the scene is. From time to time, she is glad that the blood did not go directly into the mansion this time, otherwise it would be too scary .
Although it was broad daylight now, Pei Qingyi felt that the sunlight that shone into the room seemed to have become much dimmer. Suddenly, she began to envy Sima Zhen who came beside her who couldn't understand Japanese at all. And she must record Iijima Izumi's words one by one. She had intended to tell Izumi Iijima not to exaggerate the atmosphere, after all, she was very clear that it was a real haunted house, but she was worried that if she didn't let her explain in detail, she would miss the survival tips left by the apartment, so she had to bite the bullet and listen.
I hope I can find clues to the way of life... Pei Qingyi prayed in her heart. No matter what, she wanted to live. Even though she was well aware of the horror of this apartment, she was still unwilling to give up any life-saving straw.
"Sister Yingzi was walking in front, and I was completely scared and hid behind her. The room was very dark, and in front of me was a staircase leading upstairs. Then, sister Yingzi said to me: 'Quanmei, Let's go up and have a look." I was too scared to say anything and shook my head repeatedly. She said with some dissatisfaction: "Quanmei, what are you afraid of? If that's the case, I'll go up by myself, you wait for me on the first floor .' Then, she turned on the flashlight and walked towards the stairs. But I could only stay where I am."
Pei Qingyi recorded all these contents in his notebook, then, staring at her closely, he asked, "Did you stay on the first floor all the time?"
"Well, because I didn't dare to go up at all. I was really scared. However, after waiting downstairs for a long time, I didn't see Sister Yingzi coming down, so I called her, but after calling for a long time, there was no response at all. .In the end, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk upstairs. Every time I took a step, I felt my heart beat faster. When I reached the second floor, I first saw a long corridor... "
"Wait a minute..." Pei Qingyi stopped her suddenly and said, "Please, please wait a moment."
She stood up, walked to the window, opened the window to let in more sunlight, and finally opened the sliding door at the back, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Okay, go ahead, you continue talking."
"Are you scared? Miss Pei?" Ijima Izumi was a little surprised: "Aren't you Miss Kamiya's companion? Do you also believe in ghosts?"
Pei Qingyi said in his heart: It's not a question of believe it or not, there is a ghost in that house! Just listening to it makes me feel so horrified. I really can't imagine how Li Yin and the others have survived until today. Normal people probably have a mental breakdown long ago, right
"Okay, you can continue." Sitting back to the original seat, Pei Qingyi continued to ask: "You were on the second floor, what did you see? No matter how small things are, please describe them as much as possible. As long as you provide The clues are valuable, and we will give you more rewards."
Iijima Izumi couldn't help being a little delighted when she heard that the remuneration could be increased, so she immediately continued: "Okay. At that time, when I got to the second floor, I remember that I first walked to a long and narrow corridor. At that time, when the floor stepped on, there would be a sound The creaking sound, I was really worried that I would step on the floor. Moreover, the walls were still full of spider webs, and I was looking for Sister Yingzi all the way, calling her name. At that time, I found many room, but I didn't see her."
"Wait, can you tell me more about it? Which rooms did you find?"
"I don't remember, it's been so long, I just remember looking for several rooms. And when I found the last room, I still didn't find my sister!"
"At that time, I felt very horrified. Although I couldn't believe it, the fact is... my sister, on the second floor, just disappeared!"
This is...the first hidden secret of the villagers of Yeshen Village...
