St. Mary's Cathedral, first floor hall.
Karasawa Makoto sat cross-legged on the ground, and there was a miniature magic circle drawn with ink on the floor beneath her. Karasawa Makoto has only seen similar graphics in some domestic magic animations.
The hall on the first floor is full of people who have been let down by their loved ones. Everyone is sitting cross-legged in a miniature magic circle like Karasawa Makoto, with almost the same distance between each other, as if measured with a ruler.
As a national actress who is almost unknown and known to everyone in this country, if Karasawa Makoto does not cover her appearance, she will undoubtedly cause an uproar here, so she put on a baseball cap, sunglasses and a mask , covering his face tightly.
Although this outfit is a bit exaggerated, fortunately, there are many people in the entire hall who seem to have similar concerns to her. Masks, sunglasses, and exaggerated hats can be seen everywhere, which makes her not particularly strange.
Kamo Maki's ritual ceremony was about to begin, and the complex lines on the miniature magic circle flashed faint spots from time to time.
Makoto Karasawa stared at the floor, as if his eyes were passing through the barriers of the building, reaching the lobby on the first floor.
She knew that Gu Xing was on the second floor, staying with the heartless people who had betrayed their loved ones. There was a miniature magic circle similar to her own under him.
What is Detective Guangchuan thinking about at this moment?
She was slightly curious about it.
When the assistant investigator of the East Police Department told her the truth and invited her to attend the ceremony, the thought of rejection flashed through her mind.
The assistant told her with a very serious look: "Miss Karasawa, we are not joking - if you refuse to participate in this ritual, the head-plucking witch will appear on time in twenty hours and pluck your head. National Goddess, superstar, these are all dreams."
She said: "Such words do not threaten me. Besides, I am not necessarily afraid of death."
Assistant: "Miss Karasawa, the difference between you now and the gentle and elegant image on the movie screen is huge."
She said: "Yes, I also thought that the police would be honest with innocent victims like in the movie, but the fact is - they were full of lies and tried to deceive the victims."
The assistant seemed to have been hit hard and raised his voice instantly: "I didn't lie to you!"
She said: "Really? Then how do you explain that those of us who have been betrayed will suffer, but those who betrayed are safe and sound?"
Assistant: "The rules of weirdness are like this, and there's nothing we can do about it... You should know that weirdness doesn't make sense."
She suddenly smiled: "I checked the information about the Head-plucked Witch on the forum. The first time she appeared, she killed one person, the second time ten, and the third time a hundred. Not surprisingly, this time There should be a thousand people at a time, but there are far more than a thousand people in this hall——
When I was filming a movie in the lobby on the second floor just now, I noticed that there were probably about a thousand people there. "
Assistant: "How many people can you tell at a glance? That's just your wild guess."
She said: "You arranged the queue too neatly, in a rectangular shape, with fifty people on one side and twenty on the other side. Do I still need to count them one by one? If my guess is correct, those people in the lobby on the second floor They are all betrayers."
In the end, it was the investigator codenamed Living Man who convinced Karasawa Makoto.
He said this: "Kamo Maki said that those who have been let down always harbor resentments, and only those who betray will be targeted by the witch. It turns out that you have not forgotten Detective Hirokawa yet. If so, you should consider him at least. "
Only then did Karasawa Makoto remember that she seemed to have overlooked a very important point - although she never thought that Guangchuan Gu Xing would be the kind of scumbag who betrayed his beloved, in fact, the other party was already targeted by the witch.
If she insists on not participating in the ritual, Guangchuan Gu Xing will most likely suffer.
"Hello,"
At this time, a middle-aged woman next to her suddenly said to Karasawa Makoto: "Miss, why are you wrapped so tightly?"
Karasawa Makoto remained silent.
Middle-aged woman: "Are you afraid that others will see your face?"
Karasawa Makoto shook his head subconsciously, but then nodded again.
Middle-aged woman: "I really don't understand you guys. You are obviously the victims. It's the changed scumbags who should be ashamed. Why are you covering your faces?"
…
St. Mary's Cathedral, in the lobby on the first floor, the living assistant Kojima Fujio walked into the hall with Tokuji Nakabayashi in a suit and tie.
The two walked to the high platform at the end of the hall.
Nakabayashi Tokuji whispered something into Kojima Fujio's ear.
Kojima Fujio waved to an intern assistant in the distance, and soon the intern assistant came up with a loudspeaker.
Nakabayashi Tokuji frowned, "There are no microphones and speakers here?"
"It would be nice to have something useful,"
Kojima Fujio handed the loudspeaker into his hand, "This was just brought over from the Metropolitan Police Department."
Nakabayashi Tokuji: "I will bring my own next time - this kind of inferior loudspeaker will distort the temperament of my voice and may affect the effect of my persuasion."
Kojima Fujio: "Have you planned the next time?"
Nakabayashi Tokuji: "Assistant Kojima, not next time. This kind of thing will become the norm in the future. I think what we need is long-term cooperation." He blinked, "I have a hunch that the two of us will become a couple. A very good partner.”
Kojima Fujio: "If your persuasion effect is poor, it must have nothing to do with the loudspeaker."
"friends,"
Nakabayashi Tokuji smiled, picked up the loudspeaker, and spoke to the people who had been let down in the hall, "I know that at this moment, your hearts are full of uneasiness, fear, fear and unwillingness. Why did those scum create this?" You need to bear the consequences of your sins. Don't worry, I'm here to save you...
"By the way, first of all, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Tokuji Nakabayashi, from Sento Technology Group. Recently, our team has overcome a great technical difficulty..."
…
St. Mary's Cathedral, basement level, video surveillance room.
The Son, the living person, and Haruhi stood in front of dozens of sets of surveillance videos, watching intently.
"The director's information is indeed not bad,"
The living person said to the Holy Son: "The killer from the Creation Group whose codename is [Mangyxing] is indeed here to cause trouble."
Holy Son: "Where is he?"
Living: "In the Cathedral of St. East."
Holy Son: "Saint East Cathedral?"
"Oh, I didn't tell you before,"
The living person said: “Although we gathered all the victims at St. Mary’s Cathedral, we have always declared in internal police meetings and documents that the ceremony will be held at St. East Cathedral——
"The killers of the Creation Group obviously got the news from our mole and sneaked into the Saint East Cathedral... It really made me laugh to death."
Holy Son: "You caught him?"
"not yet,"
The living person said: "However, the writer has been ambushing there for a long time. That boy's assistant and driver were smashed to pieces by Mangyexing before. He really hates that bastard.
Last night, when I was on the phone with the writer, he said that he had prepared a super scary story for Mr. Gypsophila, and hoped that Mr. Gypsophila would like it..."
