Chapter 1425: Go straight to Huanglong (It’s about time to change to a thick quilt)

The story told by Tezuka Lianyi is slightly different from that of the middle school boy, but the difference is not much.

At that time, the group sent someone to collect the debt, and the other party lived in "Hell's 1-chome". Since usury is legal in Japan, debt collection is naturally legal. The unlucky debtor dodged again and again, but was finally caught by the younger brother in the group, who beat him up and took away the money.

However, unfortunately, this scene was discovered by the patrolling police, and the younger brother hurriedly fled.

As a result, the news came the next day that the younger brother had killed someone, and the police also launched a wanted list for him.

The Japanese underworld is not as arrogant as the Mafia in Sicily, nor as powerful as the Godfather of the Brook District. They are more like "police-civilian cooperation". In short, I won't cause trouble to you, and you don't cause trouble to me. This way, you are good, I am good, and everyone is good. But if you cause trouble to me, then don't blame me for being rude.

Take debts for example. The gangsters can go to collect debts, and even use violence to collect debts. They can even arrest people and throw them directly onto fishing boats to let them go out to sea to catch tuna, or they can force people to make porn movies with contracts. As long as your porn movies are pixelated, the police will not care.

If you don’t pixelate, it won’t work because it’s against the law.

But you can’t kill people.

If you kill people, the police will have to do it even if they don’t want to.

Similarly, the gangsters have to give the police an “explanation”.

So when this happens, the first reaction of the big brothers above is to let the other party surrender on their own initiative. After all, Japan does not have the death penalty. It’s just that someone was killed by accident during the debt collection process. How many years can he be sentenced? Besides, he is just a little brother. It doesn’t matter if he is imprisoned.

The little brother firmly denied this and said that he only beat the other party and didn’t kill him at all. But no one took his words to heart. Such people usually say all kinds of nonsense to get away with it. So they locked up the younger brother and planned to send him to the police station the next day.

However, that night, an accident happened—the younger brother died!

What was even more surprising was that he did not commit suicide, but was killed by someone! And the person who killed him was actually the creditor he accidentally beat to death! ?

What, do you feel confused?

Tezuka Lianyi thought so at first, but the problem was that the situation at that time was completely captured by the surveillance camera. It can be seen in the surveillance that the younger brother was originally sleeping in a closed room. Suddenly, he showed great pain, as if he was having a nightmare. Then, a figure gradually emerged from him and turned into a man.

And the man reached out and strangled the younger brother's neck. When the gangsters outside found something wrong and rushed in, the man had strangled the younger brother to death and disappeared completely.

The gangsters who were guarding also hurriedly called their boss, but when the boss arrived, the younger brother's body was also missing!

At that time, everyone thought this matter was very strange and could not figure out what was going on. It was at that time that Tezuka Lianyi learned about this matter and wanted to use it to build a relationship with Duanmu Huai, so he called him for the first time and wanted to entrust Duanmu Huai to investigate, but was rejected by Duanmu Huai.

If it was just like this, then the impact of this matter would not be very big, just the death of a younger brother. However, not long after this, things got worse.

This time, the Wakatoshi assistant in the group died!

And it was the dead younger brother who killed him!

The status of the Wakatoshi assistant is not low. In the gang, the highest status in a group is the team leader, that is, the eldest brother. Then it is Wakatoshi - the status is second only to the team leader. At the same time, if the team leader dies or is arrested, he will inherit the position of the team leader.

The position of Wakatoshi assistant is actually equivalent to the third in command. Although they are assistants in name, their relationship with Wakatoshi is a bit similar to the relationship between the prince and other princes. Although Wakatoshi is the first choice to inherit the team leader, if something happens to Wakatoshi, then these Wakatoshi assistants are also qualified to inherit the position of the team leader.

Therefore, Wakatoshi's position in the gangsters is not low.

And when he was killed, it was also full of drama. At that time, Wakatoshi's assistant was about to go home after having fun in the nightclub. Just when he walked out of the nightclub and was about to get in the car, the younger brother suddenly came from the end of the dark street and attacked Wakatoshi's assistant directly. Although Wakatoshi's assistant was protected by someone, the younger brother was like a demon, invulnerable to swords and guns. He even took a knife and cut open Wakatoshi's belly in front of others!

Then the younger brother disappeared, and Wakatoshi's body disappeared after that.

At this point, everyone was panicked. The gangsters were just brave, not really afraid of nothing. This weird thing has begun to make the atmosphere in the group uneasy. So the leader of that group asked for help from the leader of the Yingyue group, who had a good relationship with him.

The leader of the Yingyue group didn't know what to do, but he owed the other party a life, so he agreed and handed the matter over to Tezuka Lianyi.

Tezuka Lianyi also has some means. He learned from the police that similar cases have occurred, so he followed the clues to find the middle school boy and asked him what happened.

However...

"Haunted... To be honest, I really can't imagine it."

Looking at the supernatural magazine in Duanmu Huai's hand, Tezuka Renichi was speechless.

"However, since you, Mr. Duanmu, plan to investigate this matter, then... I can let it go. After all, strictly speaking, this is not what I should do."

Indeed, it would be too difficult for a mafia detective to investigate supernatural events.

After learning that Duanmu Huai was responsible for investigating the matter, Tezuka Renichi decided to stop. On the one hand, he was a little uneasy about such weird things. On the other hand, Tezuka Renichi also knew how powerful Duanmu Huai was. . Although this was the team leader's order, as long as he went back and reported to the team leader that Duanmu Huai was involved in the matter, it should be over.

"Let me state in advance that I may not be able to produce results."

"It doesn't matter. I believe in your ability, Mr. Duanmu, and the team leader also praises you very much. After all, it was because of Mr. Duanmu's activity that the team leader was able to hear his daughter's final words."

"I just did it casually. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

"Of course, by the way, if you need any help, you can call me at any time. Our Yingyue Group is quite capable here."

"It depends."

Duanmu Huai is not willing to call a group of gangsters to help. What if he thinks he is not clean enough? So he just said a few words casually, and then went back to the office.

As for the boy, he left with Tezuka Renichi. After all... the person who killed him had been killed by Museme Satori, so he probably wouldn't run out again.

Hope not.

Of course, to be on the safe side, Duanmu Huai gave him an amulet to keep him safe, but unlike Yotsugamiko, this was a one-time use.

After all, a man must have some backbone, and he is not a girl like Yotsuya Miko. Giving you a chance to save your life is enough.

No more will be given.

After returning to the office, everyone gathered around curiously and looked at the supernatural magazine in Duanmu Huai's hand.

"Ghost..."

Staring at the magazine, Shajiuye's expression was a little complicated.

"Are there really ghosts in this world?"

"You've been through a lot, right?"

After all, since Duanmu Huai came to this world, Shajiuye has encountered the most incidents with him.

"But, those are monsters, not ghosts, right?"

I have to say that Shajiuye's answer is also very reasonable. Indeed, most of the existences in the Cthulhu Mythos can be classified into biological categories.

The only difference is whether they are "alien creatures" or "different space creatures".

Duanmu Huai had never seen such things as evil spirits in this world, not even in Mary's world.

"Speaking of which, everyone in the school likes these kinds of games, like dogs and foxes..."

Mianmu Saotori next to him also said curiously.

"There are actually people playing it. I've only seen it in movies. Isn't playing this kind of game a prelude to death?"

Duanmu Huai sighed casually, and then opened the supernatural magazine with "Seven Incredible Special Issues of XX City" written on it.

Generally speaking, these seven incredible rumors are mainly found in schools. Of course, the themes are also consistent.

Hanako in the toilet, a mannequin that runs away on its own at night, and the sound of piano in an empty music room are the seven incredible fixed items on campus.

For example, Hanako's legend is that if you go to the toilets on the third floor of the school, knock on the door starting from the first one, knock three times on each toilet, and ask "Is Hanako there?" at the same time, and when you knock on the third one , the answer "I'm here" will come from the toilet, and then the toilet door will open, and then Hanako will appear, drag the other person into the toilet, and then disappear.

Of course, normal people will know that this rumor is illogical as soon as they hear it. If everyone who knocked on the toilet was taken away by Hanako, then who left this story?

In fact, many ghost stories are like this. You said the person dies in the end, so how did this ghost story come about? Did that person turn into a ghost and tell you this after he died?

Isn't this nonsense?

"Brother, are we going to investigate these seven incredible events next?"

"I don't have the time."

However, Duanmuhuai's answer exceeded Shajiuye's imagination.

"I'm looking for the address."

"address?"

"Yes, there is definitely something wrong with this magazine. It should have the addresses and phone numbers of the editorial department and the printing factory. I will go directly to find out where the place is that prints and publishes this disgusting magazine!"

That's right, Duanmu Huai is not that stupid. He just plays a decryption game with the other party. If you go directly to the editorial department, catch the guy who runs this magazine, and then torture him directly, won't you know everything?

Oh, there is a shadow in Duanmuhuai. There is no need to torture, just scan it!

"But there may not be anything wrong with this magazine."

Irisviel looked at the magazine in front of her curiously. In terms of printing and texture, it felt no different from those third-rate tabloids.

"If there is any problem, let people take a look and let them know."

Just as Duanmuhuai finished speaking, he heard the doorbell ringing.

When Duanmu Huai heard the doorbell, he raised his eyebrows.

"Okay, the talent we need is here."
