Talk to the horse.
If Mukai Eita wakes up, you can try to see if he still has memory.
Now that he is in a coma, the ghost knows if he still remembers what happened when he was possessed by that ghost thing.
Tamamo said, "Can we go in and see Mr. Mukai?"
The aunt at the information desk nodded: "Of course, but he is just lying down and sleeping, there is nothing to see."
He Ma: "Just as a survivor of this tragedy, to express my best wishes."
Then the aunt narrowed her eyes and looked at Kazuma's face carefully: "Ah...you are that Kiryu Kazuma, sorry, sorry, there are a lot of tourists in the town, and I was not there, so I didn't recognize it. Go in. From the stairs in the middle Go up to the second floor and go all the way to the end."
Hema nodded, exchanged glances with the two girls, and then walked towards the stairs.
Following the guidance of the aunt at the information desk, Kazuma quickly came to Mukai Eita's room.
The room was converted into a ward, and in addition to the bed, there were ventilators, heart rate monitors and other equipment.
Eita Mukai lay in bed with an unlabeled bottle of IV drip—probably the glucose used to maintain the body's energy—hanging on the bed.
Of course, it may also be some black technology injection made by the Yankees.
In this time and space, the Soviet Union really has super soldiers, so it is normal for the United States to take out something from its trouser pocket and black technology that it has never seen in its life.
Kazuma noticed that Yuzao had pinched a knife in his hand after entering the house, and he didn't know what effect it had.
After coming to Mukai Eita's bedside, Hema cleared his throat and said, "Uh, Mukai-san, I have recovered. As the only two survivors of this incident, I hope you can also recover soon."
After talking to Ma, Honami put the fruit she bought when she passed the convenience store on Eita Mukai's bedside table.
A lot of fruit has been placed there, and it seems that many people have come to visit—now that the whole area is blocked, they should be from the village.
No wonder when I went to the convenience store to buy fruit, the uncle of the convenience store complained that there was not much stock left of the freshly replenished fruit, and they were probably bought by the villagers, and then delivered to Eita Mukai's bedside table.
It can't be seen that Eita Mukai is quite popular.
After delivering the fruit, there is nothing else to do. If He Ma is a bad person, he will probably kill him at this time, but it is a pity that He Ma is a good person.
I can only pray that Mukai Eita has forgotten everything that happened in the agency office, and cannot provide any useful information to the CIA.
He Ma was about to turn around and leave when he keenly heard footsteps in the corridor outside the door.
The footsteps are very slow and light, and it feels like an old lady is moving slowly in the corridor.
Kazuma glanced at Yuzao, and sure enough she heard footsteps, and then they turned their heads to look at the gate together.
Honami apparently didn't hear the footsteps, and when Kazuma and Tamamo turned their heads, they turned their heads too, looking at the door curiously.
Under the watchful eyes of the three, the door was pulled open by old hands, and a kind-hearted old lady entered the door, and was stunned for a moment when she saw Hema and the others.
The washbasin that the old lady was holding shook because of this stupid movement, and the things in the basin made a collision sound.
Then the old lady said: "Unexpectedly, there are still young children visiting Eita, are they tourists?"
Hema: "Like Mukai-san, I am a survivor of this incident. I will..."
"Oh," the old lady interrupted Kazuma, "you have a heart, young man."
While talking, she entered the ward, put the washbasin in her hand on the ground, and pushed it under the bed.
Kazuma saw that there were teeth-brushing utensils, soap dishes and other things in the washbasin.
The old lady probably just left to wash up.
Kazuma: "Are you Mukai-san's mother?"
"Yes, otherwise, what else could it be?" The old lady pulled the chair beside the bed and sat down, she let out a long sigh of relief, and said to Kazuma while rubbing her knees, "My son and I are the only ones left in our family. He fell on the bed like this and couldn't get up, so I can only take care of him."
Kazuma: "Does Mukai-san have no wife?"
"There used to be a girl from outside, whom my son met in college."
As the old lady spoke, she raised her eyes and glanced at Honami next to Kazuma: "Well, it's a bit like this girl...just a little bit, not so pretty, and not so good-looking, but anyway, she's a very pleasing girl."
Kazuma glanced at Honami, constructed a low-profile image of Honami in his mind, and then asked curiously: "Then... where is she now?"
"Run away. Life in this valley is boring, like a pool of stagnant water. After the initial freshness, the girl misses the outside more and more. This is normal. If I were a few decades younger, I would run away too." The old lady said lightly. explain.
He Ma: "But aren't you still here?"
"I originally left," the old lady looked at the starry sky outside the window, "I first studied at a women's college in Sendai, and then went to Tokyo. But it didn't take long for a big earthquake, and then the fire caused by the earthquake burned for several days In a few nights, all the wooden houses in Tokyo were burned down, including the apartment I rented."
He Ma: "Then you came back?"
"How can it be so easy to come back? I finally arrived in Tokyo. So I decided to stay in Tokyo, but because the luggage was burned, the money and seals were all in the luggage, so I could only try first. Go to the rich family to work as a helper.
"I'm still a lady of a landowner—although I'm a landowner in this kind of mountain village. Life was difficult at first, but I think it's great to be able to stay in Tokyo.
"However, difficult things followed one after another. First, the bank closed down, and those who were not bankrupt could not withdraw money. People crowded in front of the bank and shouted loudly. The police sent by the government tried their best to maintain order.
"I accompanied my wife at home where I was working to withdraw money. Two women almost died in the turbulent crowd. But they managed to make do with it. Until one day, two women dressed in black Guy knocks on the door."
When He Ma heard "two guys in black", his first reaction was that gin and vodka were coming.
The old lady looked at He Ma and made a fool of herself: "Guess who these two are?"
Of course, He Ma would not answer the Black Organization. Based on the age of the story told by the old lady, he speculated: "Tekko?"
"That's right, the spies are coming to arrest the hostess of the family where I work. The hostess is a writer. He seems to have expected that he will be targeted. Seeing the situation is not good, he jumped out of the window and left. The spy at the head drew his gun and rushed to At the window, fire through the window.
"The wife threw her body into the agent to prevent him from shooting the man, but another agent shot the wife twice, and the wife fell like that.
"The spies also jumped out of the window and left the room, chasing after the hostess.
"I turned my wife who was still alive and tried to stop the bleeding and she said 'no, I shouldn't be.'
"Then she said: 'Come on, Wei Xiao, something bad is going to happen in this country, go back to your hometown.'"
He Ma raised his eyebrows: "Excuse me, what year did this happen?"
"1931. The male owner of the house where I work likes to use the Gregorian calendar instead of the year name, so I am also very sensitive to the Gregorian calendar."
said the old lady.
There is an emperor here in Japan, so the emperor's year name is used on various formal occasions, and I am not used to it when I travel with Ma Chu.
Many old Japanese only remember the emperor's year, not the Gregorian calendar.
The Japanese born after the war may be able to quickly complete the conversion between the emperor's year and the Gregorian calendar for more convenience.
In 1931, Mukai Eita’s mother, Mukai Yuisho, worked in the home of a writer who might be a leftist or even…, and then met special high-level special agents who arrested the writer. Before she died, the writer’s wife told her to leave Tokyo quickly. something bad happens...
I feel that this refers to Japan's comprehensive right turn and globalization.
The old lady continued: "So I returned to this mountain village, and then accepted a man who entered into my family as my husband, and lived like this until the end of the war.
"Later I heard that many of the female students who graduated from Sendai No. 1 Women's College like me ended up miserable. Although I lived a stagnant life in this closed mountain village, at least I was alive."
Speaking of this, the old lady paused, and the topic turned back to the beginning: "But Eita's wife did not have the same experience as me. She is acting more and more like a bird in a cage, so when she suddenly disappears one day , I'm not surprised at all."
He Ma gave a "hmm", but suddenly he was shocked: "Wait, Ms. Mukai...disappeared suddenly? Did no one see her leave?"
"I saw it. But I didn't tell anyone." The old lady said, "I acquiesced in her leaving. Because I can understand her thoughts. Since then, Eita has been like a different person."
He Ma frowned: Changed
I'm afraid he has been possessed by that thing since then.
The old lady noticed the change in Kazuma's expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Hema waved his hands, "Mr. Mukai, didn't he try to find a wife?"
"No. Probably Eita has also realized that staying in this kind of mountain village will be a torment for his wife. He likes her so much, and he probably hopes that she can go to a wider world.
"However, after his wife left, Eita began to promote the modernization of the village. He first bought a switchboard, and repaired the wiring, so that every household in the village could connect to the phone.
"Then he leveled the road, repaired the house, and bought a color TV to put in the activity room of the village office, so that everyone can watch the programs of the TV station on the Sendai side, and occasionally the TV station in Tokyo if the signal is good.
"He didn't know where he got a set of movie equipment, and showed some movies that have already been released for everyone to see."
Hearing this, Kazuma immediately recalled when he was looking for Kazuya, when Kazuya talked about "The Story of Tonajiro", he was asked by Kazuma, "There is no cinema on the hot spring street, where did you see the story of Tonajiro", As a result, the Almighty paused imperceptibly.
Is it related to this
So Kazuma interrupted the old lady and asked, "When Eita Mukai was organizing a movie screening in the village, did you miss the story of Torajiro?"
The old lady immediately replied: "Yes. Of course there is. Tojiro's story is the favorite series of movies in the village. Moreover, once again, the shrine master of Meiquan Shrine discovered that his son actually got a trick in Tojiro's story."
So, the imperceptible pause of the Divine Master before was just because he saw his son playing tricks
I always feel that this explanation is a bit far-fetched.
He Ma was about to ponder over it carefully, when the old lady continued to ask: "A few years ago, he heard that Han Tian, who moved out of the village, became a deputy minister of the Ministry of Transport, so he brought a lot of gifts to Tokyo for a visit, and when he came back, he brought back Investment and Tourism Development Plan of the Ministry of Transport."
The old lady reached out and stroked her son's head: "These plans have improved the living conditions in the village, that's why the whole village respects him so much. Look at these fruits and give them so much. If my son doesn't wake up, an old lady like me won't eat them at all." Not finished."
He Ma also glanced at the fruit piled on the bedside table.
There is also his contribution in it-although Honami paid for it.
The old lady sighed again: "How could such a thing happen? If the news spread this time, the new type of cholera has killed so many people here, who will travel here in the future. Yingtai is so bedridden , all his hard work will be in vain..."
He Ma thinks that maybe the CIA and the Self-Defense Forces will implement a complete news blockade.
He comforted the old lady: "Mr. Mukai Eita will definitely recover, and everything will be fine."
"I hope so," said the old lady.
Kazuma stared at the old lady for a few seconds, convinced that she had nothing else to say, and asked, "May I take a look at the projector that Mr. Mukai got?"
"Of course, just put it in the next room, I'll get it for you..."
He Ma held the old lady down: "No, your legs and feet are inconvenient. Let's go to the next room and watch."
The old lady nodded: "Then you go."
So he bid farewell to the old lady with Ma, went to the next room, and saw a movie projector in a pile of sundries.
When I was a child with Ma in my previous life, movie theaters were not as popular as they are now, and watching movies was mainly through centralized screenings organized by officials.
The projector in the utility room looks similar to the movie projector used by the movie projection team in He Ma's memory when he was a child.
He Ma got closer to observe the projector carefully, and then he noticed with sharp eyes that something seemed to be wiped off with thick paint on the side of the projector.
But some of the paint has peeled away, exposing the corners of the text that covered it.
Kazuma immediately tapped the layer of paint with his fingers, and after peeling off the dry paint, the troop number was exposed.
Obviously, this is the unit designation of the Japanese army. The designation of the modern Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force or something does not continue the general rules of the old Japanese army, and it will definitely not be confused.
The projector is presumably entertainment equipment owned by an old Japanese army unit.
He Ma immediately thought of the base that caused the two tragedies—it should be nearby.
So after Eita Mukai was controlled by that thing, he went back to the base to dig out the projector and paint it, and used it directly.
Then why did the god master pause imperceptibly when He Ma asked him where he watched "The Story of Tonjiro"
Is it really just to remember that his son has played tricks in this series of movies
While thinking about it, He Ma put the projector back to its original position, picked up the paint in the utility room, and covered up the serial number that had just been exposed.
Can't let the CIA know that Kiryu and Ma knew the secret of the projector.
After finishing this, Hema folded his arms and fell into deep thought.
He always felt like he was on the verge of piecing together the whole thing.
What exactly did the God Lord say to Watanabe-kun, how did Watanabe-kun die, how did Oda-kun become a vegetable, all these can be put together as long as one or two fragments are found.
