We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 45 Cement Well Filling (Please continue reading)

It seems that most female ghosts have tragic backstories, died unjustly, or at least have some tragic elements.

As far as Lu Ming knew, Sadako's superpowers came from her mother, Yamamura Shizuko, who gained superpowers after accidentally retrieving a small horn statue from the sea.

The so-called En no Ozunu was a sorcerer from the Asuka period of Japan, and the founder of Shugendo, who could use sorcery to cause all sorts of things to happen.

At her husband's urging and due to financial pressure, Shizuko Yamamura begins to use her superpowers to perform and earn money.

Following closely behind were all sorts of rumors and gossip. People insulted Yamamura Shizuko, calling her a charlatan and a fraud, and even her husband's career was affected. As a result, Yamamura Shizuko and her daughter Sadako were subjected to harsh words.

Having no other choice, Shizuko Yamamura had to publicly demonstrate her superpowers, but due to an accident, she was unable to use them.

There are two versions of this incident.

The first theory is that Shizuko Yamamura was too tense, which led to her failure to use her psychic powers.

Another theory is that not only Yamamura Shizuko, but everyone actually possesses superpowers, but these powers are usually too weak to be manifested. Only when everyone gathers together and hopes that Yamamura Shizuko will fail will their superpowers be revealed.

In any case, the defeated Yamamura Shizuko suffered even greater malice than before.

As a result, her husband was immediately admitted to a sanatorium.

When Sadako was eight years old, Shizuko Yamamura chose to commit suicide by jumping into a volcano. Sadako, who also possessed superpowers, watched her mother die in front of her and from then on chose to hide her abilities.

Ten years later, eighteen-year-old Sadako visits her father at the sanatorium, but is raped by the last doctor in the island nation who carries the smallpox virus because she is too beautiful.

After it was all over, Sadako was pushed into the dry well shown in the videotape by the doctor and brutally murdered...

In the original storyline of The Ring, Reiko Asakawa and her ex-husband Ryuji Takagawa made a special trip to the dry well where Sadako died.

The real man, Ryuji Takagawa, went straight down the well and pulled out Sadako's body. After comforting Sadako's body, the couple thought that the resentment had been resolved and everything was fine. However, when the time came, although Reiko Asakawa was not dead, Ryuji Takagawa was still killed by Sadako.

Having learned from the mistakes of Reiko Asakawa and Ryuji Takagawa, Lu Ming did not intend to continue to resolve the issue in such a mild manner.

Based on the volcano shown in the videotape, he found out the exact location of the dry well where Sadako died.

It is a place called Izu Oshima.

Afterwards, as expected, Lu Ming found Yamamura Kei, the uncle who raised Sadako.

Initially, when Lu Ming expressed his desire to stay in a nearby wooden house for a while, Yamamura Kei was very resistant.

Lu Ming took out all his savings, not even leaving behind the next few months' rent for his apartment.

Yamamura Kei readily agreed to Lu Ming's request, and generously said that money was not important, as they were all friends and it was no big deal for Lu Ming to borrow the house for a while. He told Lu Ming to treat the house as his own home and not to be shy.

Lu Ming was one to listen to advice and truly treated the place as his own home, showing no politeness whatsoever.

The second day after I settled in.

Lu Ming found the dry well in the videotape, brought over a truckload of cement, lifted the well cover, and poured the cement in, sealing the entire well completely.

The vengeful ghost Sadako, who relentlessly attacks those cursed, has been restrained by Lu Ming using supernatural means.

Filled with resentment, Sadako's corpse, the source of the supernatural phenomenon, was also sealed away by Lu Ming. "Shouldn't this mission be completed smoothly by now?"

Lu Ming thought to himself as he waited for the bell to ring.

But after he did all that, nothing happened.

There was no notification of additional task completion on the main god panel, and Lu Ming was unable to leave the Midnight Bell instance in advance.

···········
Around dusk, a news report broadcast on television caught Lu Ming's attention.

The news report was filed by newspaper reporter Reiko Asakawa, who stated that two recent unsolved cases might be related to supernatural factors.

More clues are yet to be verified, but what is certain now is that one of the videotapes contains very strange content, and bad things will happen to the person who watches it.

The videotape begins with a long-haired woman putting on makeup in front of a mirror. At the end, a blurry-faced woman in white flashes by. The second image shows a series of moving text headlines about a volcanic eruption…

Lu Ming watched the news report carefully in front of the television, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

"What a joke! I took the original videotape long before Reiko Asakawa. This woman shouldn't have seen that cursed video. How could she know the specific content of the videotape and record it so clearly?"

As Lu Ming continued to think about it more deeply, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Logically speaking, the high school couple and Tomoko were the only people besides Lu Ming who had seen the videotape.

They are all dead now, and they didn't leave any useful information before they died.

Therefore, after Lu Ming took the videotape in advance, no one could possibly know any specific information about the videotape.

Furthermore, Sadako has been restrained by Lu Ming, so this paranormal incident will most likely end here...
There is only one explanation for this situation: not only was Sadako's vengeful ghost not completely restrained by Lu Ming, but he also used his telekinesis to control Asakawa Reiko, causing her to write this report.

"Where exactly did things go wrong...?"

Lu Ming did not say goodbye to Yamamura Kei, but instead set off directly to leave Izu Oshima.

at this time.

Inside a dimly lit, unnoticed rental room in the city.

A young woman named Daquan Yu, who lives alone, lies listlessly on her bed, her eyes vacant and lifeless, seemingly lost in thought.

From last night until now, all signs indicate that she is pregnant.

But I clearly don't even have a boyfriend, how could I possibly be pregnant?
Even if I know I'm innocent, what will my parents think? What will my friends think?
Daquan Yu suddenly remembered a news story she had seen on TV before, about a female office worker who accompanied her boss to a banquet, was drugged and assaulted, and ended up pregnant. So she began to recall the banquet she had recently attended.

"Could it be that she got pregnant from being squeezed during rush hour?"

Just then, Daquan Yu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, so painful that he almost fainted.

Immediately afterwards, her stomach visibly swelled up a bit more.
