"What?"
Kiryu Yiyi looked at the three people in front of him.
"Do you want to tell me that you three are not actually people, but ghosts or zombies?"
The bad experience he had this afternoon had already made Kiryu subconsciously classify the students who came to seek help as "persecution paranoia". He also made up his mind that he must raise the unit price when he goes back, otherwise he would have to pay for seven meals a day. Ma Ba's affairs can make him anxious.
"No!"
Watanabe shook his head, his high ponytail swaying from side to side.
"We saw our own corpses with our own eyes! We are still human beings and we are still alive!"
【Ding--】
[Target: Extracurricular tutoring (as a haoxuesheng, you are very tolerant of distressed students, help them solve those little troubles in adolescence), reward: +200 learning points, system upgrade]
Tutoring?
Are you sure what the three of them said has something to do with extracurricular tutoring?
Also, seeing your own corpse is completely different from "little troubles in adolescence".
However, the "system upgrade" cheered up Kiryu. He still had a skin card in his hand. If he upgraded, he might be able to use it. Although his unreliable "haoxuesheng" system was developing in the direction of a gold-plated mobile game... That’s not right, isn’t this plug-in for me always based on krypton gold?
Then it is even more necessary to upgrade the system.
"Please elaborate."
Kiryu sat down and said with a serious look, "I might be able to help you."
"Koizumi, it's up to you to speak." Watanabe turned around and said.
The male high school student named Koizumi nodded. He stood up and said, "We are sophomores in the same school. Because we are interested in "Bermuda", "UFO", "super powers", "urban ghost stories" and other things, we We established a paranormal research club, mainly to study the possible ghost stories in the school and nearby, and then... we got to know Tanaka."
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Tanaka is actually a strange person in the school. He has a very withdrawn personality and usually acts by himself. When we were talking about ghost stories that day, we accidentally discovered that Tanaka also had the same hobby, so the three of us Tanaka and I became good friends with similar interests."
There is nothing weird about the topic so far.
Kiryu nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.
"Tanaka said that there are often strange noises in his house. There are some during the day, but it is particularly noisy at night, as if there are many people running around in his house."
Watanabe added: "We thought it was a poltergeist."
It seems that the three of them have really done some research on urban ghost stories, and they actually know about poltergeists.
"Yes." Koizumi nodded: "As people who love supernatural phenomena, we immediately begged Tanaka to take us to his home to experience it, and Tanaka readily agreed."
"I still remember that we entered through the back door. His house was very big, just like an English castle..." Koizumi raised his head slightly and said, "Tanaka's parents have been working overseas, so Tanaka has always lived by himself. .”
"We waited until late at night at Tanaka's house, just when we thought we might not see anything..." Koizumi's face gradually became ugly. Not only Koizumi, but also Watanabe and Kamiyama's expressions also changed.
"We heard the sound! Then we followed Tanaka and climbed to the window to look down, and then we saw..."
Koizumi took a deep breath: "I saw another Tanaka!"
"Another one?" Kiryu asked doubtfully.
"Yes, another Tanaka! They look exactly the same. Tanaka seemed to be shocked at the time. We also asked Tanaka, and Tanaka said that he did not have any twin brothers." Koizumi recalled, imitating the expression of the Tanaka at that time: " He just waved his fist and told the other Tanaka to get lost."
"But we also noticed that another Tanaka was holding a shovel and seemed to be burying something in the yard. After being discovered, instead of being scared, he laughed and said, "If the body is buried here, it has nothing to do with me, hahahaha ~", saying it while laughing like this is very scary."
"Then what?" Kiryu asked, and he found that the expressions of the three people did not seem to be fake.
"We were throwing things downstairs, and the other Tanaka was scared away. Then we rushed down to catch each other, but the other party disappeared in the blink of an eye." Koizumi's voice gradually trembled: "We dug up the ground. New soil, inside the soil are the bodies of me, Watanabe and Kamiyama!"
Kamiyama, who had been silent until now, spoke up and said, "We are very sure that Tanaka who has been standing next to us is innocent. It should be Tanaka from another world who killed us from another world, just like a parallel universe. Another dimension.”
"We promised Tanaka not to call the police, but in fact there is no way to call the police." Koizumi smiled bitterly: "Obviously the three of us are still alive, how should we call the police? Tell the police that the three of us found our bodies?"
"...Yeah" Kiryu nodded.
Assuming the three of them didn't lie, this matter is indeed tricky.
But he doesn't believe in parallel universes, different dimensions, etc. Maybe... Tanaka, the classmate of the three, is a non-existent person? You have to wait for your own investigation before drawing any conclusions.
Watanabe said: "I heard my cousin talking about Kiryu-san, so I specially invited Kiryu-san to come over. We really care about this matter."
"Don't worry," Kiryu Yiyi said: "I will help investigate this matter, but it may not be possible at the moment. Let's wait for the summer vacation in a few days."
"please!"
"Also, please give me your address."
After a brief exchange of emails, Kiryu said goodbye and left.
On the way home, he couldn't help but start thinking about his future path. Should he just open a detective agency? Anyway, there is no such thing as a certain Shinigami elementary school student in this world, so there shouldn't be many unlucky situations.
"I still have more than an hour of bad luck CD." Kiryu quickened his pace to go home: "You might encounter some bad luck while walking outside."
On his way home, Kiryu stopped at a certain intersection.
A figure with a thin face, like a hemp pole, staggered down the street and passed him by.
"Kanta Mikami?"
Although this guy has always had ulterior motives, he lost weight suddenly after not seeing him for a few days. He couldn't even have surgery so quickly.
"Hello!"
Kiryu called out to Kanta Mikami, but the other party ignored Kiryu completely and walked forward aimlessly like a zombie.
He opened [Social] and looked at the updated Kanta Mikami. His favorability score of 31 points last time actually increased.
【Kanta Mikami (Despair)】
[Favorability: 45 (normal)]
[Message: I don’t want to become a ghost. 】
Boom~
The shaking figure had fallen to the ground.
"Hello!"
Kiryu walked over and found that Kanta Mikami had fainted and was breathing weakly.
"It's really an unlucky time!"
"Is this guy really going to be a gay man? Is he going to die from overindulgence?"
