She herself couldn't tell whether she didn't contact him because she was really too busy, or because of... fear.
It seemed that every time he approached Xia Shu, he would be followed by a strange thing. When he turned around, he would find that it was just an illusion.
That thing might appear on the ceiling when I was eating, in the closet when I wanted to take clothes, under the bed when I was sleeping, or even out from under the quilt... That thing looked at me from all angles, resenting me and cursing me.
"He must have to endure more than me doing that kind of job!" Qianhua knew that she was not very suitable for that weird, absurd and thriller world, but when she thought of Xia Shu walking out of the laundry room and giving her a thumbs up, her heart was at peace.
"He must need someone to rely on."
Knowing himself, maybe...
"Is Kazuo not here yet?"
Hearing the voice outside, Qianhua immediately stood up and replied, "Yes, Mr. Funada hasn't arrived yet."
"That guy is always lazy, how can this work!" The visitor complained, and said to Shoda Chika: "Ms. Shoda, please stay alone for now, I will call and contact that guy."
"no problem!"
But the call never got through.
The time has come and it's time for Chika Shoda to get off work.
Because we couldn't contact Kazuo Funada, we temporarily contacted another employee to come and help, otherwise one person would definitely not be able to handle it.
"Here's your salary! You've been working hard lately."
"Thank you very much. Thank you for your care during this period!" Chika Shoda took the money and bowed to express her gratitude.
Just at this moment, two policemen walked in.
"Excuse me, Mr. Funada Kazuo, do you work here?"
……
Kazuo died at his home at midnight.
After forensic identification, it was determined that he died of heart failure and it was speculated that he may have a history of heart disease.
Chika Shoda’s first thought was: How is this possible!
Kazuo Funada is a person who enjoys life very much. He will never force his body. He does whatever is comfortable for him and he often goes for medical check-ups. In his words, "I want to live a healthy life and die a healthy death. The capitalists can't exploit me. I won't sacrifice my time and health for money."
In short, it is impossible for such a person to have hidden diseases.
Chapter 45 Cursed Movie
It was obvious that the police did not believe that the other party would commit suicide, and it seemed that there were many people who died in the same way, so they identified it as a high-tech homicide.
They questioned everyone in the store.
Of course Chika Shoda, who was about to get off work, had to answer as well, but she and Kazuo Funada did not have any contact on weekdays, and they did not work at the same time, so they knew very little about each other.
Instead, the girl who came to take over the shift and was originally complaining suddenly said gossipingly: "It should be that one."
"That?" The policeman immediately perked up.
"It's a cursed DVD. I think it's called The Ring. I heard that watching it will curse you to death. A few days ago, Funada borrowed it and took it home to watch, but he said the content was boring."
The two policemen looked at each other and said nothing more.
"After that, did you get the DVD back?"
"It should be in the warehouse."
"Who spread that curse?"
"It was the previous store manager, Shio Kojima." This time it was the store manager who spoke: "We used to rent movie DVDs, but gradually fewer people rented them. Everyone went to watch short videos on the Internet. At that time, Mr. Kojima said that we could write some scary names to attract people to rent them. It would be best to add various scary urban legends. However, the effect was not good. After he resigned, those things were put into the warehouse. Mr. Policeman, do you also think that the murder was caused by The Ring?"
"Of course not, but we suspect this case may be related to Kojima Shio," the police said, "Can you take us to the warehouse to have a look?"
"of course can."
Chika Shoda, who had been listening, took the initiative to say, "That DVD is weird, so let's not watch it."
She still remembered what happened to her before.
And after hearing from her colleagues that Funada Kazuo had watched the movie "The Ring", she immediately confirmed in her heart that it was definitely an evil spirit that killed people, just like a ghost calling.
"Don't worry," one of the policemen said with a smile, "There is no such thing in this world. And there have indeed been a lot of copycat murders recently. Maybe the other party is hiding their crimes by implying that there are evil spirits killing people. We can't miss any clues."
Watching the store manager lead two policemen into the warehouse, Chika Shoda and another person stood outside and did not follow them in.
They both thought that the DVD was ominous and best not to touch.
Standing at the door of the warehouse, you can hear two policemen chatting inside.
"Sancheng, you've been smiling more recently. Is it because you're in love?"
"Xue Na is really a good girl, very considerate."
"Asshole! I'm so jealous. You deliver meals to me every day and bring me an umbrella when it rains. I doubt you even need to wipe your own butt when you get home!"
"If you're jealous, find yourself a girlfriend."
"Tsk, forget it, I'd rather live more comfortably on my own."
After a while, two policemen came out each holding a box of DVDs, which were all movies that Shio Kojima had "strongly recommended". It seemed that they had something to investigate during this period.
After the police left, Chika Shoda also bowed and said goodbye. If she wasn't really passing by, she would probably never come here again.
……
Yahiro Detective Agency.
Natsuki, who was waging a "battle to defend her biological mother" on the Internet, looked up at Chika Shoda who was sitting on the sofa.
"Is there really a "The Ring"?
"The Grudge", "The Ring" and "The Ring" are not only representative horror films in Japan, but also world-famous horror films.
It is definitely not normal for these to happen one after another.
Although "The Ghost Call" ultimately failed, "The Grudge" was a success.
But the problem is that there are too many secondary creations of Sadako in "The Ring". Even if she really turns into a vicious spirit to kill people, it is difficult to guarantee that the methods she uses will not be inappropriate for children, such as draining...
Qianhua nodded: "I suspect that Mr. Funada died because of that movie."
Then she stretched her white neck curiously: "Mr. Yahiro, are you busy?"
"Ah, no!" Xia Shu hit enter.
It's just one man fighting against dozens of people. He is very confident in his computer skills and will never be defeated in the battle of keyboards.
Whether it's sarcasm or direct swearing, I'll definitely accompany you.
The main strategy is to curse to the end in a dog-skin plaster-like manner, and if the account is blocked, he will ask An Zhongren for help to unblock it, which directly forms a perfect self-circulating system of online combat.
"Hoo~!"
Having won a battle, Xia Shu rubbed his sore shoulders and asked, "So, you are worried that the Ring will continue to harm people, just like the movie back then, right?"
"Hmm." Qianhua stared at the can of iced cola on the table. For some reason, she felt that it looked familiar.
A layer of water droplets has condensed on the surface of the Coke can.
"I don't mean to involve you, Mr. Yahiro, but I just think..."
"How do you think those things are around us?" Xia Shu moved his shoulders and said, "As long as you control your curiosity and don't go too deep when you feel something is wrong, don't worry, your life will continue to remain peaceful and those things will never bother you. Isn't there a horror movie survival manual on the Internet? You can read it when you have nothing to do."
Qianhua nodded.
But there was one more thing she didn't say. If you know that you are afraid and weak, but still want to get in touch with that world, or want to get in touch with someone standing in that world?
The main reason why she came today was to pay back the money.
"Now we're even!" Xia Shu said, "Let's go. I'll treat you to a meal. There's a Chinese restaurant with a boss from the Northeast. The food is absolutely authentic!"
"Ah, let's just split the bill!" Qianhua quickly waved her hand.
The two came downstairs.
"Please put on your helmet." Xia Shu sat on the motorcycle and handed a helmet to Qianhua: "The distance is quite far, but I only have one motorcycle."
However, with the money given by Qianhua, it is easy to buy a used car.
"It's okay." Qianhua put on a helmet and straddled the back seat. He didn't know where to put his hands, but after the motorcycle started, he fell on his back due to inertia.
"Mr. Yahiro's back is a little thin." She thought to herself.
That feeling comes again!
A creepy feeling suddenly swept over my whole body.
Qianhua turned her head and looked at the roadside. When the motorcycle passed an alley, she could feel that there was a person hiding inside, staring at her with resentment.
"What's wrong?" Xia Shu turned around and asked.
At the same time, Qianhua found that the feeling disappeared.
"Nothing!" Qianhua shook his head.
When they arrived at the Chinese restaurant, they took the menu and ordered food while chatting casually.
After talking about Nojiri, they found a common topic.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Qianhua got up and left. As soon as she opened the door of the bathroom, she felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong.
My body is giving me a very bad response. I absolutely must not go in. It's very dangerous!
But the bathroom door was already open and I could see the whole scene inside clearly at a glance. How could there be any danger? I must be too nervous.
She took a deep breath and walked into the bathroom.
Compared to death, if you feel a little uncomfortable in your stomach and something goes wrong at the dinner table, it will be real social death. Not to mention love, even your life will end.
Chapter 46 Kayako is following
When Chika Shoda got up to go to the bathroom, Natsuki was also checking his phone. Since he had finally gotten out, he decided not to argue with those losers online who couldn't even protect their own mothers.
A familiar and strange feeling emerged, and Xia Shu bent down and looked under the table.
The pale-faced boy holding a drawing board squatted under the table, looking at Xia Shu with lifeless eyes.
"Junxiong, why are you here?" He forced a smile.
Even if you're used to it, it still feels scary when you first see it.
