I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

Shibuya Police Station, Section 9 Information Team.

Just when two night owl brothers and sisters were fighting high because of the video released by IBM700...

Several highly skilled hackers were also busy in front of the computer.

"Is there still no result?"

"Sorry, section chief, although the video data reposted to other websites and social tools has been blocked. However, the post on the 2CH forum and the video inside cannot be deleted."

"...A detailed analysis of the content of that video has not been able to obtain useful information for the time being."

Mochizuki Ayano, who had just arrived at the police station, stood in the center of the command room, listening to the reports of the agents, frowning.

The ID IBM700, the video released in the middle of the night, became popular because of the atmosphere of the second class, the crazy voice package, and the rustic special effects. It was regarded as a "funny video of the Menglan Festival" and ignited the entire 2CH forum , and even spread to other websites...

But unlike ordinary melon-eating netizens who watch the video for fun, as the ninth class of the professional department, he naturally knows that every word the other party says may be true.

Because, in the video, every weirdness that was "named" by the man who called himself "Hell Revolution" has a thick stack of unfinished files in the ninth lesson.

However, after spending the entire Ninth Lesson, and even borrowing a large amount of network resources from the Intelligence Headquarters of the Defense Agency, it is still impossible to close the urban legend section of the 2CH forum.

This forum section is as invulnerable as a wraith that is independent of the real world and lives on the Internet.

Lesson 9 has already tried to physically shut down the IBM700 forum server for the first time.

However, when the entire website was shut down, the "Urban Legend" section was like a ubiquitous ghost. Instead, it jumped directly to the first-level page of the 2CH forum website and was accessed as an independent page.

This is equivalent to turning it into the homepage of the 2CH forum in disguise, and the publicity effect is even better.

If you can't delete the post that is the source of the video in the 2CH forum, you can't fundamentally prevent the spread of the video...

The only thing that Lesson 9 can do is to exhaustively clean up the relevant data that has flown to other servers, prevent the spread of this video from the external network, and guide the direction of public opinion at the same time.

At this moment, there are three detectives who are in charge of the second editing, and continue to "spoof" and "ghost animal" the content of this video.

"This time, he not only released the text, but also declared his name and purpose in the video..."

The "True God" mentioned by the dead man in black robe Yuta Jozuki, the extraordinary cult that worships some kind of evil god hidden in Tokyo, the IBM700 that claims to establish a new order...

Even if these guys are not in the same group, they must be related to each other.

"Could it be that those weirdnesses are all manipulated by the guy IBM700 behind the scenes..."

Thinking of this, Mochizuki Ayano seemed to see a huge monster slowly surfacing from the water.

"No, that is no longer a field that humans can set foot in."

Regardless of the truth, her intuition told her that if she didn't act in advance to make IBM700's prophecy come true, big trouble would definitely happen.

She immediately called Takeshi Iwata.

"How about the investigation of the Kuramae apartment?"

"Chairman, I'm about to contact you... I got Kenta Oishi's diary in room 103. The recording was stopped three months ago. The content on it is basically consistent with his testimony."

After Kenta Oishi surrendered himself, Takeshi Iwata took a group of people to the room where he lived overnight to investigate and collect evidence.

"In the diary on the Meng Lan Pen Festival a year ago, it was mentioned that the 'black iron door suddenly appeared' on the top floor of the apartment", so we went up to check..."

At this moment, the voice of Takeshi Iwata, who was leading the investigation at the Kuramae apartment, trembled for some reason.

"After trying to use tools to violently dismantle the black iron door on the roof of the Tibetan apartment failed, we initially suspected that the door was an indestructible grudge."

"What, grievance?! Immediately report to the Metropolitan Police Department, I will come right away..."

Hearing the news, Mochizuki Ayano took the coat directly and ran out all the way.

She, Iwata Takeshi, and Tokimoto Ichiro had personally confirmed the iron door on the roof of the Kuramae apartment, and there was obviously no resentment attached to it.

At that time, in order not to disturb the "things" that might exist in the apartment, there was no attempt to break in, but a drone was sent to check the situation on the roof.

Looking back now, the reason why the Tibetan apartment was so "clean", which was clearly full of traces of resentful spirit activities, must be that some "reincarnated venerable" who accidentally moved in did the free cleaning service.

The "Rashomon" mentioned by IBM700 in the post of Heirashomon, the "that door" mentioned by Oda Kenta, the grievances that kept gathering in the Kuramae apartment and disappeared without a trace...

Everything came together in her mind.

"Rashomon... finally found you!"

...

6 hours before the appearance of "The Gates of Hell".

Shinjuku, Kagurazaka.

The Menglan Bon Festival is approaching, and on Kagurazakadori, a small slope interlaced with the Japanese and the Western, many merchants have also set up small stalls selling sacrificial supplies.

"Mr. Araki, can you see this?"

Yumami Kotori, dressed in a yukata, was squatting in front of a certain booth, picking out objects for the ritual.

Her red and white cherry blossom yukata, cute pink bow on the back, and round buttocks perfectly fit into this traditional slope, as if making people dream back to the ancient Edo period.

At this time, she was holding an elegant lantern in her hand, asking for the opinion of a blond man not far behind.

"Ahaha, little bird Yushi, look, this cucumber is long and thick, Xingping will definitely like it..."

However, Sousuke Araki in the rear did not appreciate this beautiful scene of "beauty looking back".

He was staring at a thick cucumber close to 40 centimeters that he was holding in his hand, smiling meaningfully.

"Well, Araki-sensei... such a long cucumber can't be made into a "spirit horse", I'm afraid it can only be made into a "spirit centipede". "

Kotori Yumami pursed her lips helplessly, and in a calm tone, explained the words that made Araki Sosuke's forehead sweat.

"...Or, are you going to let Mr. Higashino and Ms. Reiko sit on a 40cm "Spirit Centipede" to go back and forth between 'Welcome the Basin' and 'Send the Basin'? "

Since he was unable to attend the funerals of Higashino Yukihei and Shirazu Reiko, and it coincided with the Menglanbon Festival, Araki Sosuke asked Kotori Yumami to hold a comfort ceremony for them during this period, which can be regarded as doing his best to wait for others .

The Menglan Pen Festival is an annual day to welcome the dead back home, accept offerings and give thanks. It is mainly divided into three stages: welcoming the basin, offering the basin and sending the basin. During this period, activities such as ceremonies and dances will also be held.

On the evening of the first day, every household will light the fire to guide the return of the soul of the deceased, and at the same time build an "elf shed" for the soul to inhabit, and prepare various sacrifices.

Among them, cucumbers and eggplants are inserted with bamboo sticks as four-legged sacrifices, called "elf horses" or "elf cows", which are the horses and cows that the deceased rode on when they went to and from the world.

"Asshole, no wonder the boss smiled so happily when he saw me paying the money!"

Araki Sousuke couldn't help bursting his veins when he imagined that the gifted cucumber in his hand would be transformed into a human centipede with densely packed bamboo sticks.
