"Since it's only level 3, I'll leave it to you guys to handle. Remember to put the account aside first."
Mingming raised his eyebrows slightly, sat back in the car, and waved to the two girls he brought with him.
It's only level 3, not even enough to afford the attack fee. It's a complete waste of time.
Shinomiya Kaguya and Kashiwagi Nagisa looked at each other. The latter stretched out her right hand, raised her index and middle fingers, put them together in front of her chest, and whispered to herself:
"Born from darkness, darkness becomes darkness; all filth and residue will be eradicated."
The barrier descended from the sky, covering the entire nearby block like an upside-down bowl.
The headlights of the car and the flashlights in the hands of the police completely illuminated the stairs leading to the basement, leaving almost no shadow.
But even in the light, Shinomiya Kaguya and Kashiwagi Nagisa were still nervous.
Because theoretically speaking.
Although they already have experience in exorcising cursed spirits, this is their first time carrying out a mission independently.
In the previous few times, Miss Mingming always led them hand in hand and never left their side.
And now, the only ones who kept them company were three crows circling above their heads, acting as their eyes and ears.
But this is what they asked for.
They must learn to stand on their own feet. Only in this way can they help that person, instead of being like flowers in a greenhouse and having to be protected by others.
"call."
Kashiwagi Nagisa took a deep breath, grasped the door handle of the basement, and pushed hard with the awareness that there was a cursed spirit hidden in the shadow behind the door.
Snapped!
The girl banged her shoulder against the door, but it didn't budge.
Shinomiya Kaguya looked at her like a fool:
"what are you doing?"
Kashiwagi Nagisa said unhappily:
"The door can't be opened. Something is blocking it."
"You don't know how to use your abilities?"
Shinomiya Kaguya asked back in a cold tone, "After all, it's stupid to open the door with your hands even though you know it's a supernatural event, right?"
Kashiwagi Nagisa glared at her fiercely, but now was not the time for an argument.
The girl took two steps back, stretched out her hands, and pointed her palms at the door.
next second.
boom!
A thick column of water as tall as a person gushed out from her palm, and the violent impact force directly broke down the door of the basement with a loud bang. The pile of charred objects blocking the door were also swept by the river into the depths of the basement, as if to completely sweep the basement away.
At the same time, Shinomiya Kaguya stretched out her hand and pressed it on the rushing "river" in front of Kashiwagi Nagisa.
In the silence, the accumulated water that rushed into the basement was quickly frozen into ice crystals half a meter thick, emitting a biting cold.
"Let's go."
Kaguya Shinomiya stepped onto the ice and bent over to enter the basement.
It was only then that they finally saw what the charred object frozen under the ice was.
They were charred human corpses, curled up and deformed, piled up like mountains.
As they went deeper, they found more bodies in the stage area. Without exception, all of them were hanging from the ceiling, with their feet frozen under the ice.
Shinomiya Kaguya and Kashiwagi Nagisa both fell silent, the former's expression was as cold as ever, and the latter's face was a little pale.
Although they had experience in exorcising cursed spirits, this was the first time they had seen a human corpse.
And it’s a big scene as soon as it arrives.
There are probably at least hundreds of corpses here?
How many people died?
Shinomiya Kaguya whispered:
"Not here."
Although these people died in tragic ways, the scene was horrific.
However, they do not have any cursed power or spiritual energy fluctuations.
No.
There is still some remnant.
But the presence of remnants means that the cursed spirits they incarnated after death have been exorcised, leaving only the remnants.
And here is a place where there is really strong spiritual energy fluctuations...
Shinomiya Kaguya glanced sideways at the door on the right. The door was near the stage and should be the preparation room if nothing unexpected happened.
"Nagisa, open the door!"
Shinomiya Kaguya pointed at the door and gave quick instructions.
"I know it without you having to tell me!"
Kashiwagi Nagisa muttered and slowly raised his hand.
As she moved, the originally flat ice layer on the ground suddenly cracked, and several sharp ice cones extended from the cracks, piercing through the door of the preparation room in the blink of an eye. Under the trend of inertia, the violent impact force directly blew the door away.
Without the barrier of the door, the stench of rotting corpses quickly poured into the hall from the preparation room. Through the damaged door frame, Kaguya Shinomiya could clearly see dozens of slender objects hanging from the ceiling, swaying in the wind like sunny wind dolls.
But the one that was shaking was not the Harukaze doll, but a person!
There was clearly no wind in the basement, but they were hanging on the ceiling and were shaking faster and more violently, as if they were about to break the bandages tied around their necks.
Anyone can see that if they tear off the bandages, nothing good will happen!
As soon as Kashiwagi Nagisa raised his hand, large ice cones flew out from under the ice surface and quickly pierced the corpse hanging on the ceiling.
It wasn't just their bodies that were pierced, but also the cursed spirits that were hiding in the bodies and were full of resentment. Ordinary ice cones could not hurt the cursed spirits, but these ice cones were originally evolved from cursed power, and while piercing through them, they also completely destroyed their cursed power structure.
After all, it's just a level 4 cursed spirit and can't pose much of a threat.
Compared to the cursed spirits themselves, the corpses had a much greater impact on the two men.
Shinomiya Kaguya moved closer to observe the corpse in the preparation room which had gradually stopped shaking.
Although they were also hung from the ceiling, these bodies did not show any signs of being burned by the fire. Most of them were already highly decomposed, and the strong stench that made people want to vomit came from their bodies. It looked like they had been dead for at least several years.
Others are relatively "fresh" and their appearance can be vaguely identified, as if they had died not long ago.
Most of these bodies were female, and judging from their sailor suits that had merged with their decaying bodies, most of them were high school students. The corner of the preparation room was filled with broken guitars and basses, and the bodies hanging from the ceiling were once their owners.
"Let's go."
Kashiwagi Nagisa walked up to Shinomiya Kaguya, patted her shoulder and spoke softly.
When leaving the basement, Kashiwagi Nagisa melted the ice on the ground, turning it into invisible and powerful cursed power that dissipated into the air.
Mingming looked at the two people with pale faces, did not comfort them, and asked softly:
"Want to know what happened here?"
"Ah."
Shinomiya Kaguya and Kashiwagi Nagisa nodded at the same time.
Darkly looked at Raisu Keigo:
"Officer Kuishu, show them."
Keigo Kusu handed over the phone without hesitation and said:
"This is the Future Diary, which is my technique. It records the future of the cases I'm investigating. So I can know the location of the case a few hours in advance, and I can also know the results of the case investigation a few hours in advance. Of course, the specific details of the case cannot be known that far in advance, only a dozen minutes at most."
Kashiwagi Nagisa asked curiously:
"Given the efficiency of the Japanese police, it should be difficult to investigate the specific cause of the accident in a few hours, right?"
"really."
Keigo Kusugano laughed at himself, "But we are a special department after all, so of course we have to be more efficient."
The department that handles supernatural incidents is not efficient and who knows how many more people will die.
More than 130 million people die in Japan every year, of which only over 300 are murdered, about 2 commit suicide, about 4 die in accidents, about 100 million die of old age and illness, and the remaining 30 are generally classified as others.
Of course, this does not mean that all people who die in paranormal situations will be classified as other.
It depends on how the assistant supervisor who is specifically responsible for handling the matter wants to cover it up, so the nominal causes of death vary.
But because of this, no one knows exactly how many people die from paranormal events every year.
Because the government will not publish it, or even specifically count it.
But according to Keigo Kusugawa's estimation, at least 50,000 people die from supernatural events every year!
This is still based on the premise that there are Yin Yang Masters and sorcerers who are constantly running around and competing to exorcise the cursed spirits. If there were no sorcerers and Yin Yang Masters, who knows how many more people would have died!
How can their efficiency not be high working in such a department?
If anyone dares to neglect his duties, the death toll will double in minutes!
Shinomiya Kaguya and Kashiwagi Nagisa didn't think too much about it and lowered their heads to look at the investigation results in the diary.
It's actually very simple.
Twenty-five years ago, a woman named Saito Mio suffered extensive burns all over her body in a fire in her home.
While she was recovering in the hospital, her boyfriend abandoned her.
She decided to take revenge on society by going to this livehouse and setting fire to it, killing more than 100 people. However, she escaped because she hid in the preparation room, and even hung the bodies of the victims on the ceiling one by one, and eventually hanged herself.
The cause, process and result were all clearly investigated 25 years ago.
However, for some unknown reason, all the police officers involved in the case died mysteriously, and the case was shelved.
Since no one had dealt with the crime scene, it gradually evolved into a haunted place and even developed a barrier.
It is precisely because of the barrier that the 'window' cannot even sense the magic power and cannot detect the existence of this livehouse. That is why this place has existed until now. Every year, people accidentally enter the barrier because of their musical instruments and eventually never leave.
If someone hadn't accidentally broken the barrier this time and exorcised the level 1 cursed spirit that maintained the barrier, more people would probably have died here.
Shinomiya Kaguya asked coldly:
"Someone is deliberately cultivating cursed spirits?"
"Yes."
Keigo Kusu nodded solemnly, "From the results of the investigation, that's right. And this person was already a high-ranking member of the police force at the time, at least a police inspector. Otherwise, even if they could kill the police officers investigating the case, they wouldn't be able to cover it up.
"Twenty-five years have passed. Due to the lack of information, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to investigate the truth of that year."
There was another point he didn't explain. Since the other party was already a police captain 25 years ago, he must be at least a superintendent now, or even a superintendent of police.
Such a person will not only encounter numerous obstacles during the investigation, but even if the truth is discovered, it will be difficult to bring him down if no substantial evidence is found.
Moreover, this person may not be the culprit. There may be someone of a higher level behind him, perhaps someone from the world of sorcery.
But it was useless to talk about these things, they couldn't handle them at all. Talking about them would only cause more trouble, so Keigo chose to hide it.
However, even if he doesn't say some things, it doesn't mean that others won't understand.
"Nagisa."
Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly asked, "I remember Kojima's father was the Superintendent of Police, right?"
"That's right."
Kashiwagi Nagisa smiled faintly, "Come to think of it, it's been a long time since I visited you. Kaguya, do you want to come with me?"
Keigo Kusu hesitated to speak, "Does the Superintendent just visit me whenever he wants? Are you the eldest daughter of someone's family?"
Mingming clicked his tongue.
Children from wealthy families are really extraordinary.
She is a first-class sorcerer, and she worked very hard for more than ten years to earn more than 40 billion. However, any company that other people's families give her to practice can have a market value of tens of billions, and the Superintendent of Police can meet her whenever he wants.
