I, enter the zero world, change the ending

Heaving a weak sigh, Zhiyao shook his head regretfully.

"Don't worry, we will definitely find it." Gu Du quickly tried to comfort her.

"Thanks for your good wishes. I'll be leaving first." Zhiyao waved her hand vigorously. "By the way, I often come back late at night. I hope it doesn't disturb your rest?"

"No, no, we don't live together." Gu Du said nonchalantly, "This is the advantage of living in my house. Humph, Hinasaki's house is not as free and convenient as mine, don't you think?"

"Yes Yes Yes."

Gu Du originally wanted to ask Zhiyao to discuss the later content of the novel, but when he saw Zhiyao was about to go out, he changed the idea.

"I'll get back to my work. You should try to come back early. And... by the way, please make time to help me with my creation tomorrow night, okay?"

"Okay, tomorrow night for sure."

After waving to each other, the two said goodbye. Zhiyao was carrying her bicycle down the stone stairs. When she was halfway down, Wuming's figure appeared in front of her.

The man finally arrived, and Zhiyao hurried to greet him.

"Why did you come to see me just now?" Zhiyao smiled.

"I've been busy lately." Wu Ming yawned and lit a cigarette for himself. "I came here this time to..." Before he finished speaking, Wu Ming stopped for some reason and looked behind Zhi Yao. "Where's the little ghost girl? Is she on you?"

"Oh, Hanako is sleeping in her room."

Wuming said "oh" and then hooked his hand to lead Zhiyao to another place. Zhiyao immediately realized that it was to prevent Hanako from hearing, and immediately put on a serious face.

"I brought it here to tell you a story." Wuming said.

"Story?" Zhiyao was confused for a moment, then spread out one hand to signal Wuming to continue.

"I heard this story from someone else. You can just listen to it casually."

Zhiyao nodded.

"Three years ago, there was a little girl named Tsukimi Hanako."

The protagonist of the story was born in a single-parent family and was raised by his mother. Although he lacked fatherly love, he still lived a happy life under his mother's careful care. Everything was fine, but when he was seven years old, he had an accident at school. After that, his mother hanged herself because of excessive grief.

"Has the criminal been caught?" Zhiyao asked anxiously, feeling extremely distressed.

"What I heard from others was that because no valuable evidence was found, it ended up being a cold case."

The moment he heard this, Zhiyao became extremely annoyed, "Wouldn't that just let that guy get away with it?!"

"Indeed, it's quite uncomfortable." Wuming sighed helplessly.

"Thank you for telling me about Hanako, including her last name."

Wuming immediately raised his hand to interrupt Zhiyao's speech.

"Did I say anything? I just told you a story I heard somewhere else."

Zhiyao suddenly understood something and smiled knowingly, "That's right, it's just a story, even its authenticity needs to be verified."

Thinking it was almost time to go to the library, Zhiyao patted Wuming on the shoulder and said, "Then I'll go to the library to return the book. Boss, I'll treat you to a midnight snack another day."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, Wuming grabbed her collar. Zhiyao subconsciously looked back and found that Wuming had already leaned close to her ear.

"Don't let yourself get too close, be careful not to get away, and use the ghost's advantage whenever possible."

Zhiyao glanced at her face, then squinted and gave her a look of understanding.

At this point, the matter came to an end. Seeing Zhiyao riding her bicycle farther and farther away, Wuming thought for a moment and rode his motorcycle straight to her side.

"Don't wait for the midnight snack, treat us now. Your boss is still hungry."

There was nothing else to do afterwards, so Zhiyao readily agreed.

……

The next night, as agreed yesterday, Zhiyao waited for Gudu in the room.

After waiting for a long time but no one came, Zhiyao picked up a newly borrowed book and started flipping through it. After flipping through it for some time, her eyes unconsciously moved to the closet with the door half open.

"Well, aren't you bored?" Zhiyao asked Hanako.

After spending time together, Zhiyao discovered that Huazi was really well-behaved. She would listen to her instructions and never leave the room during the day. At first, she would even ask Feifan to play with her at night. However, after being told that she had to spend a lot of time looking up books for something important, Feifan never made any requests again and was always quiet, neither making a fuss nor making a noise, which made Zhiyao very relieved.

The tutor is really good, she is worthy of being a teacher's child. Staring at the girl's childish face, Zhiyao couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing Zhiyao's voice, Hanako's gaze moved from the ceiling to Zhiyao's face. Finding that Zhiyao was talking to her, Hanako immediately turned over from lying flat to lying on her side.

"It's not boring, hehe."

"It would be strange if I wasn't bored." Zhiyao trembled her eyebrows and widened her eyes slightly, "I feel bored for you."

"We can't delay Brother Sikong's important work."

Hanako is really too sensible, and Zhiyao inexplicably feels guilty.

As his eyes turned subconsciously, Zhiyao suddenly thought of something and quickly asked Wuhui: "Is Xiaomei still at the Himuro residence?"

Immediately understanding what this person meant, Kirie shook her head regretfully and added, "Only Suzuka and my real body are left in the Himuro residence now. The rest have all gone to Hades."

"Yazue is there too?" Zhiyao suddenly became extremely concerned and frowned slightly.

He was worried about the weight of the yarn.

Although Yae had promised herself, if she still chose to go to the underworld with Sohna Ryozo in the end, Yae's wish would never be realized.

Although he thought that Sohō Ryouzo was a good person and deserved to be treated that way, deep down in his heart he always leaned more towards Saeki.

Fortunately, the worry is completely unnecessary.

Kirie's subsequent words that Yae had already left the Himuro residence dispelled his worries, and his uneasy heart calmed down.

Speaking of yarn weight.

"Let's go to Minamigami Village."

Faced with Zhiyao's unprecedented proposal, Wuhui's expression froze because she was caught off guard. After a while, she asked in disbelief, "Are you serious, Sikong?"

"Am I kidding?" Zhiyao asked back, then grabbed a candy from the snack box, took off her coat and stuffed it into her mouth, "I want to find a playmate for Hanako. There are a lot of children in Kaigami Village, the Kiryu twins, Tachibana Chitose and so on."

"Isn't that a very dangerous place?"

"I'm not afraid of anything. I have the divine weapon Chuyeshi Sword, the guardian spirit Yaoboji, and the Rope Shrine Maiden. I've never neglected my training during this period. The Sikong Zhiyao of today is no longer the same person who first entered the Himuro Residence."

After thinking about it, she realized that this was indeed the case. Wuhui had nothing to say. Yaoboji stood beside Zhiyao with a confident smile on her face.

Hearing that the matter was related to her, Hanako hurriedly sat up, jumped out of the closet and came to Zhiyao's side.

"Where is Kaigami Village?" Hanako asked with interest.

This question stumped Zhiyao.

"In... uh..."

After all, that was a village that disappeared from the map. How could Zhiyao, who had never been there, know clearly about it? Therefore, he could only answer honestly.

"I haven't been there, I don't know."

"Then don't go. It's better to stay in a safe place." Hearing this, Wuhui struck while the iron was hot and dissuaded him.

The sound of Gu Du's footsteps was heard in the corridor, and the topic was interrupted. While Zhiyao got up to open the door, Hanako hid in the closet, and Kirie and Yaobahime returned to Zhiyao's body.

Chapter 90: [Clues]

It is well known that investigating a case is difficult, and investigating an unsolved case is even more difficult. Asking Zhiyao, who has no experience in handling cases, to investigate an unsolved case from three years ago is simply harder than climbing to the sky.

At 11:30 pm on Sunday, Zhiyao once again sneaked into the university's teaching building without anyone noticing.

"Why are you here again?" Wuhui asked curiously.

"It's been three years. This place is bustling with people coming and going every day. There shouldn't be any evidence left." Yaoboji reminded.

Zhiyao rolled her eyes in disapproval.

How could I not know about this? I'm not a fool who lacks common sense.

"I came to see if there were any witnesses." Zhiyao answered truthfully. Seeing that the two looked confused, she immediately explained, "Didn't Wuming ask me to make more use of the ghosts? I wanted to see if there were any earthbound spirits or something."

Wuhui admires this unconventional approach from the bottom of her heart.

Although not optimistic.

From left to right, from the first floor to the third floor, Zhiyao searched the corridors and toilets of the teaching building with the Chu Yeshi Sword. Unfortunately, the blade never lit up.

Standing in front of the door of the toilet cubicle where Hanako had attacked, Zhiyao couldn't help feeling discouraged.

"Let's go home, Brother Sikong." Huazi took Zhiyao's hand and gently pulled it, "I don't like it here."

Go to the rooftop to take a look before going home.

Just as he was making this plan, suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the corridor. The sound came from far away and got closer, making Zhiyao's nerves extremely tense.

He was sure that there was no one else in the teaching building, so he could have come in later.

The sound was very close to the entrance of the women's restroom. In panic, Zhiyao hurriedly hid in the cubicle in front of her and locked the door, praying in her heart that she would never enter this place. However, as if it were raining cats and dogs, the more she tried not to think about it, the more things would go against her will.

People outside have come in, and...

Hanako didn't follow him into the compartment.

At this time, there was no way to open the door to let Hanako in, so Zhiyao had to pray continuously, hoping that the man did not have the ability of clairvoyance.

Who would have thought that what happened next would be even worse? The footsteps stopped abruptly on the other side of the cubicle door, causing Zhiyao's heart to rise to her throat.

If you were caught in the school girls' restroom late at night, you wouldn't be able to wash yourself clean even if you jumped into the Yellow River.

At that moment, Zhiyao bit his lips tightly, not daring to breathe too hard. The next second, he was so focused that he noticed that the door on the opposite side was opened, and he didn't dare to breathe.

"what?"

There was a sound of talking outside, and the voice sounded like a man.

Then the door was pulled several more times, each time harder than the last.

It seems that the people outside have become completely suspicious.

Seeing that being discovered was a foregone conclusion and there was no escape, Zhiyao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.

He thought, if all else fails, he could just suddenly open the door and push the person on the other side, then run away at full speed. He had been running long distances every day recently, so he was quite confident in his physical strength.

Just at this time.

“Woo——————————————————————————————”

A creepy sound came from behind him, and Zhiyao immediately thought of the moaning of a female ghost in a horror movie. He glanced behind him in panic, and what came into his sight was Wuhui's figure.

Oh my god, it turns out to be Wuhui. I thought it was a female ghost.

Zhiyao, who knew the truth about the voice, naturally would not be afraid, but the person outside was obviously not afraid. Before Wuhui's voice stopped, the sound of hurried footsteps moving away was heard outside.

After a few blinks of an eye, Zhiyao vaguely heard the man going downstairs. After more than ten seconds, there was no movement in the corridor.

"Brother Sikong, the person has left." Huazi said in a low voice outside.

Seeing Zhiyao open the door and leave the compartment, Hanako immediately began to share information, "It was a man who looked like an uncle just now."

"Did you see what it looked like?"

Hanako was reminiscing when a female voice suddenly came from behind her.

"I've seen that man before."

Zhiyao was caught off guard and almost jumped up in fright. When she looked closely, she saw a girl wearing the school uniform of this school with blood stains on her face.

She quickly regained her composure from the shock, and reflexively took out Chu Yeshi's sword and prepared for battle. Suddenly illuminated by the light, the girl raised her hands to block it and took several steps back.

"I don't mean any harm, please don't hurt me." The girl pleaded in a sincere tone.

Not daring to take it lightly, Zhiyao looked the girl up and down, and after a moment he put the weapon back into the sheath.

"who are you?"

"This is not the place to talk, let's go to the rooftop."
