"Ok?"
"I've said before that you're not alone in this world, right? Now I have a few points to add." Turning back leisurely, Zhiyao slowly walked to Xili, "Not only do you not need to feel lonely, you also don't need to feel that you don't fit in. In terms of psychic physique, almost everyone around you is. Shenhong and Gudu have been like this since birth. The pain they've endured for this is no less than you, so I hope you can emulate them and be as positive and optimistic as they are. Besides, you actually have a home here. In addition to the two of us, there is also the woman who just agreed to help with the documents. Her name is Wuming. She has existed since the time of Oda Nobunaga and has survived to this day. The deity Yaoboji in me was given to me by her. In addition, there is a guy named Axiu, who is half human and half monster. He has also lived from the Warring States Period to the present. I'll introduce you to him someday. In short... what I mean is that you are not alone. You actually have quite a lot of companions here. You can communicate with us more often."
Zhiyao ended with clapping, indicating that he had finished speaking. Seeing Xili's wandering eyes and dull expression, he put his hand on Xili's head and stroked it back and forth.
Admittedly, this will trigger viewing.
But it doesn't matter.
Because he has no shameful thoughts in his mind and is not afraid of being pried into.
Perhaps because he had said too much in one breath and his throat was a little dry, Zhiyao left Xili and rushed into a convenience store not far away to buy a drink. During this time, Xili stared at his figure in a daze, her eyes constantly moving with his position.
Over time, the confusion in his lifeless eyes faded a little.
……
At noon the next day, after lunch, Zhiyao lay flat on the tatami, bored, and made a big character shape.
Today is the weekly day off.
Just as I was thinking of taking a nap and then going to Himuro Residence to take pictures when I woke up, the sound of the ancient capital broke through the wooden door and entered my eardrums.
"Sikong, are you in the room?"
"Yes." Zhiyao answered loudly while staring at the door, but did not stand up.
"Someone's looking for you outside."
Hearing Gu Du say this, Zhiyao began to guess the identity of the visitor.
He thought, maybe it’s crimson.
only……
If it were Shenhong, she would have just come and knocked on the door, so after some speculation, he tentatively decided on a girl whom he knew but not very well - Iyama Yuki.
"Tell her I'll be out soon." Zhiyao replied loudly as he slowly sat up.
Who would have thought that the next second, the door was opened without any warning, and the answer was revealed at the same time. Standing at the door was————Kurosawa Rei.
"Hey, Zhiyao." Lian's eyebrows relaxed softly, and her smile was fragrant. "I'm coming in." While speaking, Lian took off her outdoor shoes and walked into the house.
Seeing that Gudu had left, Zhiyao immediately went to close the door, then looked at Lian and asked nonchalantly, "Why is it you?"
"It's me. What? Am I not welcome?" Lian raised her eyebrows and occasionally looked around the room.
"What I want to ask is...how did you find this place?"
"Hinasaki-kun told me."
Jun refers to a male, and Zhiyao secretly thought it was Zhendong. As for how Zhendong knew about it, of course he got the information from Shenhong.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" With his doubts dispelled, Zhiyao got down to business.
"I'm here to urge you to complete the task, hehe." Lian said softly with satisfaction, and at the same time handed over a small and exquisite camera, "The tools have been prepared for you. Look, Sister Lian is very considerate."
The woman was so enthusiastic that Zhiyao was a little flattered.
"I... am going to take a nap first..."
"Okay, you go to sleep, I'll wait here." Lian replied in an indifferent tone.
What are you doing here while I sleep, providing a lap pillow?
Zhiyao silently complained in her heart.
"Then let's set off now. Do you want me to send the photos to your company tomorrow at noon or..." Zhiyao asked Lian while chewing and picking up a piece of chocolate from the snack box and putting it in his mouth.
"Not tomorrow, but tonight." Lian said without hesitation.
"It's too late tonight." Zhiyao reminded silently.
"There's still time. I'll take you there now and send you back when it's over."
"Oh, if you're sending me off... Huh?!" Zhiyao suddenly realized what was happening and secretly cried out in disbelief. A chill gradually spread down her back. "Well... Sister Lian... let me ask, are you going to... drive?"
"Youyu is driving today."
Hearing that it was someone else driving, Zhiyao felt relieved and answered readily, "Then let's go. You go wait outside first. I'll change clothes and get some things."
Twenty minutes later, the car was moving at a steady speed on the road leaving the city. Lian sat in the passenger seat and Zhiyao sat in the back seat. In addition, Xili also accompanied Zhiyao.
In fact, Yuri didn't really want to go out, especially since she was going to the Himuro residence.
But Zhiyao was determined to drag her along, and her will to refuse was not particularly firm, while Zhiyao's will to let her go out was quite firm. Zhiyao kept persuading her with reasons such as "We are partners, that place will be unforgettable for me, so aren't you curious about my experience, I helped you get your ID card, so you should repay me", etc. Finally, unable to withstand Zhiyao's nagging, Xili followed him out the door, half dragged and half pulled.
"Can I go in with you two later?" The person in the front passenger seat spoke to the back seat with a beautiful smile.
"No." Zhiyao rejected it flatly without any hesitation.
"Why?" Lian immediately expressed her dissatisfaction, "If Xili can do it, why can't I?"
"Xili is different from you. Anyway, this matter is non-negotiable. If you continue to pester Xili and me, I'll go home."
Feeling Zhiyao's firm attitude, Lian reluctantly closed her mouth and hummed muffledly. Beside her, Youyu kept smiling from beginning to end, but did not speak a word.
Chapter 101: [Himuro Residence during the Day]
"Here we are. See that phone booth? It's right there."
When a public telephone booth on the roadside not far away came into view, Zhiyao informed Youyu.
Youyu immediately parked the car by the roadside. After the car came to a complete stop, Zhiyao and Xili got out one after another. Zhiyao then instructed the two people above, "Why don't you two go back first? I'll call you to come over after this is over."
"Why bother? We'll just wait here," Lian said.
However, You Yu sensed something in the words and asked with some concern, "Will it take a long time?"
"The speed of time inside and outside is different." Zhiyao didn't hide the reason and told them directly, "The main reason is that I don't know what time it will be outside when I come out. If it's at night, won't it waste your entire afternoon?"
Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, Wuhui's voice suddenly rang out.
"The flow of time has already been synchronized, so there's no need."
"Synchronize? When did it happen? Why didn't anyone tell me?" Zhiyao asked subconsciously, and only then noticed that Lian and Youyu were looking at her with incredible eyes.
"Who are you talking to, Zhiyao?" Lian asked the question first.
"No, no..." Zhiyao was caught off guard and quickly covered it up with a laugh, "I was just talking to myself, ahahaha... I was just joking with you two, don't take it seriously."
"sure?"
Obviously, Lian is not easy to fool.
"Are you really not communicating with anything?" Rei smiled mysteriously. "Hinasaki-kun said that he was able to leave the Himuro residence alive because of you. If he said that, then it means you are not an ordinary person, right?"
The intuition is quite accurate, Zhiyao sighed in his heart.
The next moment, Lian got out of the passenger seat and walked up to Zhiyao, asking, "It's rumored that there are evil spirits in the Bingshi Residence. Do you have a way to communicate with them?"
This woman's intuition is so accurate that it's terrifying. She's worthy of being a professional journalist, Zhiyao sighed again.
"Ah this..."
For fear of being seen to be guilty, Zhiyao mustered up the courage to look Lian in the eye, trying his best to restrain himself from looking away.
After a few seconds, Lian sighed slightly, then changed her tone to a sincere one and pleaded, "Sister Lian still wants to go with you, so can't you take me with you?"
This is the only thing Zhiyao will never give in to.
"No."
Another round of staring followed, and finally, seeing no hope, Lian had to give up and responded gloomily, "Okay, okay, then should I go back and wait for the call, or continue to wait for your return here?"
"Just wait until I get back." After a little thought, Zhiyao gave an approximate time, "About two hours."
After that, he quickly left the scene with Xili.
……
"It's okay to take her with you."
When they were about to enter the forest, Wuhui spoke to Zhiyao after confirming that there was no one around.
"Don't do that!" Zhiyao looked solemn and spoke in a serious tone.
"Why?" Kirie was puzzled. "Isn't Kurosawa Rei also one of the protagonists of the series?"
"The problem is, I don't know her well, and she's a professional journalist. What if she's not careful enough and tells others about your story? What if she gets published in the newspaper?"
Wu Hui didn't really care about this kind of thing, so she responded in a nonchalant tone: "It's in the newspaper, so what? It's no big deal."
"That's easy for you to say..."
Feeling like communicating with a little girl who was ignorant of worldly affairs, Zhiyao slapped her forehead and sighed helplessly, "Have you forgotten that almost everyone who entered the Bingshi Residence met with an accident? Basically, most of them were caused by you. Once your existence was made public, did you ever consider that those guys' relatives and friends might come to cause trouble for you? Even though you are very powerful, aren't you unable to move now? Even if you could move, what if it was a ruthless person like Wuming and Axiu who came?"
Upon hearing this, the luster in Wuhui's eyes gradually faded and her expression became more lonely.
"Yes... After all, I have committed an unforgivable crime..."
"They were controlled by evil spirits. It has nothing to do with you." Zhiyao quickly changed her words. "The ones who really deserved to die and be torn into pieces and pay the price were the evil spirits. You were just a tool."
"Don't say that, Sikong, it's impossible for me to completely shirk responsibility." The corners of her mouth became bitter, and Wuhui smiled bitterly.
"So you're atonement, aren't you using your body to seal the gate to Hades and save the world?" Zhiyao suddenly thought of something and turned to Xili, "No word about Wuhui's affairs must be leaked. Do you hear me? And also about Wuming and Axiu!"
Xili, who had been listening, was looking elsewhere and did not say anything. She inadvertently noticed that Zhiyao was looking at her. After realizing that he was talking to her, she nodded hurriedly.
……
Thinking that they were almost there, Zhiyao stopped and ordered Wuhui to lift her hiding place.
The next moment, as a white arm stretched out from Zhiyao's shoulder and snapped his fingers silently, the Himuro residence slowly appeared in front.
Looking at the huge mansion that suddenly appeared in front of her, Xili couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
She was not unfamiliar with things being hidden in other spaces. She had experienced this many times and found them many times in Higashinakayama. Those were all small items. This was the first time she had seen an entire building like the Himuro Residence being hidden.
"Don't stand there like an idiot, come here." When Zhiyao found that Xili didn't follow him, he turned his head and urged her.
Xili hurriedly followed, and when her back foot crossed the threshold, she saw Hanako coming out of Zhiyao's body.
"I want to go on an adventure!" Hanako said excitedly with her little head slightly raised.
After saying that, Hanako looked around and ran straight towards the door leading to the Rope Corridor without even waiting for Zhiyao to express her opinion.
The door in front had been opened, and Zhiyao hurriedly chased after him, "Ah, let's gather here later." Unfortunately, as soon as he said that, Hanako had disappeared into the depths of darkness.
"Kids just love to play, haha." Looking at Xili, Zhiyao said helplessly, then changed the subject, "Before entering this place, I specially moved a very heavy stone to prop up the door."
In the following time, Zhiyao would describe what happened at every place he went to.
In the Rope Corridor, he fought against the evil spirit for the first time, met Crimson, met Xiao Kirie, met Koto, met the evil Kirie, and where and through what method did he become a psychic, awakened Yae, fought against Himuro Shibafune, and later released Suzuka by accident, etc.
During this time, Xili listened quietly, and hummed from time to time, but her face remained calm from beginning to end, and her expression did not change at all.
Zhiyao didn't mind this particularly, and just regarded her as an ice-cold beauty who never smiled.
About an hour later, Zhiyao took Xili to visit almost all places on the ground. Everything that had some value was photographed by Zhiyao's camera. The only things left were the ghost mouth, the moon well, and things deeper inside.
Of course, these were not within the scope of the planned filming and were not included by Zhiyao from the beginning.
In the cherry tree courtyard, Zhiyao looked at the ancient cherry tree with confused eyes.
He missed Yae.
Also, the previous two times I went to Bingshi Residence were at night, but this time it was during the day. Bingshi Residence during the day has a completely different flavor and gives people a completely different feeling.
He just stared at the cherry tree in a daze until Kirie's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"What's wrong?"
Zhiyao's gaze gradually shifted towards the Moon Shrine.
Immediately understanding what he meant, Wuhui stopped him decisively: "Don't go down there, go home."
"Why?" Zhiyao didn't understand, confusion appeared in her eyes.
"Lian is still waiting at the foot of the mountain. We can't keep her waiting for too long."
"Well, let's go back." Xili echoed.
