Chapter 10

No matter how bizarre or weird the story is, it is just a story compiled from everyone's mouth, and it has been added and modified by various people in the process of continuous circulation.

Then, starting from the small ideas at the beginning, with rough and plain content as the starting point, constantly adding plausible elements to being imagined, longed for, and feared by others. The plot becomes full and strange, and then gains vitality through word of mouth and becomes available.

Yes, it's just a story. Even if it is wrongly integrated with mysterious weirdness and weird stories, it's still just a story.

And I, now I, will soon become the protagonist in the story.

According to the agreement with Akira, I will fall into the legend of the strange talk in the way it is circulated in the strange talk, and then she will analyze and crack the strange talk.

I always feel that this sounds like the foot-light infantry standing on the front line on the ancient battlefield. The warriors following behind are waiting for the low-level soldiers to absorb the first wave of bows and arrows and spears. After fighting in a group in front, they wait for an opportunity to find the flaws, and then use elite troops to rush into the enemy formation and conduct a refreshing killing.

No matter what I think, this sounds like a very sad thing.

However, if the warrior behind the scenes was not a vicious man, but a cute and beautiful girl, it seemed that it would not be so difficult to accept.

Besides, compared with being recruited from the fields, solving the school incident has a huge relationship with me. Since that is the case, there is nothing to complain about.

I walked around the campus with a slow pace, aimless.

Among the seven incredible weird stories, one of the rare key points among the seemingly unrelated weird stories is triggering in an environment where no one else can do it.

This is easy to understand. After all, as a story, it must add enough authenticity to the seasoning in addition to its horror, and at the same time, it must have considerable ambiguity as a buffer.

Otherwise, a good man would be killed in public, and would lose the coldness of ordinary ghost stories that is invisible and intangible like fog. However, after quieting down, there would be a deep horror that seemed to be indissipated, and turned into a naked, rough and bloody tone like a chainsaw murderer.

During this period of time, there are still people in the classrooms of the club, and the students who come in and out from time to time also leave most of the strange stories without room for single play.

So the only thing that can be explored now is the first weird story.That is, the strange lost warehouse.

The ambiguous color of this legend is still too strong. There is no fixed time point at all, and there is no fixed place. Or in other words, any corner of the school can be triggered.

Because the legend is triggered by a very idealistic form after a unlucky student noticed how many steps he had taken.

So, I chose to keep wandering around the area near the declining angle of the warehouse and the experimental building.

Then I began to recall the history of the strange talk Akisaka mentioned. In fact, our school was established for a long time.

It is said that the initial teaching building was just a short bungalow, which would be used as a school district in the future, and would still be a land area.

The first version of the legendary weird story is closer to the Shenyin circulating in the countryside.

That is, the playful students play hide-and-seek, and then disappeared in the fields where there were still dense rice. Then the adults hurried to look for it, but they couldn't find it no matter what.

A few days later, the missing student came back. It is said that he was lost on the road he had completely lost. Then, when he was walking for a long time, hungry and thirsty, he met a kind-hearted man wearing very old clothes and came back under his guidance.

Very plain and has no twists and turns.There is no reason or horror in the story, only the winding road.

Oh, speaking of this, the reason why Akira suggested that I go here is that in addition to the sparsely populated place and almost no one will come after school, there is another reason that this area was the last developed by the school. If it was to fit the first and the original version, this might be the most suitable scene where the field was once located.

Akisaka explained: Although the version of strange stories is constantly being updated, as strange stories that are originally false stories, they are generally displayed in the form of the most widely circulated version among the crowd.However, the stories that have been circulated are also stories.As a version that was abandoned like a fading shell in the past, there may be a vague residue that has been passed down to the present.

Should my destiny temporarily move from reality to the strange path of the original version, or will it become into the dark and gloomy warehouse as the latest weird talk says?

I have no idea?!

Maybe nothing will happen.

I suddenly stopped because I had already counted the 660th time silently.According to the latest circulating version, step 666 will be the prerequisite for triggering the monster talk.

No. 1...

This is also the ambiguous story of the strange story. Over the years since the founding of the school, there have been so many students coming and going. Even if they only have a day of whim, there may be 666 steps. If it is certainly triggered, then the school will have frequent disappearances.

But the reason why it is a mysterious strange story that students pretend to be, rather than a frightening legend that makes people feel terrified, is precisely because of the strangeness that seems to be right next to you and seems to be far away.

But I came today to chase it.

After taking a deep breath, I took a step again after a moment, and walked forward step by step at a rhythm of almost the same distance.

The road in front of you is a small path divided by green belts. Street lights that are too far away can only illuminate mottled spots through the well-grown leaves.

It’s not that I can’t see my fingers completely, but it’s very far away from seeing it.

The further you move forward, the more you get out of the illumination range of the street lights.

The trees in front were neatly arranged in two rows, like waiters who were attentive to welcome guests, but the common scenes during the day were covered with dark sheaths at night, and the atmosphere and feeling of everything became different.

My heart trembled unforgettably. No matter how much I cheered up and suggested myself, I suddenly felt heavy pressure in my heart.

However, I did not forcibly suppress this emotion, and did not even try to take out my phone to add a little bit of light.

The reason is very simple. Although Akisaka did not say it explicitly, it can also be inferred from the content of her words that the strange stories born from the fear and curious thoughts of students are typical stories of various elements gathered among the people.

It is also a strange story with the public's subconscious mind.

Only humans with suspicion and horror, like the protagonists who commit suicide in the story, will be the best characters embedded in the Strange Talk story.

I have to be prepared to play this role.

I resisted not turning on any lighting equipment, and I kept my pace and walked towards the depths of the green belt step by step.

The cicadas chirped on the sultry trees, at least bringing a familiar sense of peace of mind.But the more you go inside, there seems to be indescribable insects chirping and swaying among the shrubs on both sides and on the branches beside the road.

Of course these sounds cannot make a big man like me so scared that he turned around and ran away, and I was still walking.

It's late at night...

There is already a lightless place under my feet, and the place on the inside is no longer the distance where the street lights can shine in. Only the vague light scattered can barely divide the outline of the bushes used to encircle the trail.

It presents a long shrub, which is a neat shape that has been trimmed by school workers.

It is also the most common thing during the day and is not worth noting at all, but in the dark, they all seem to be rendered with a layer of black and empty color. With the sound of my shoes and stone slabs getting clearer and clearer, everything is becoming less familiar little by little.

Yes... I am not familiar with the green belt at night. Even after studying in this school for so many years, I have no interest in going to the elegant and enjoying the night-long tour of the forest path.

This is the first time for me.

The campus is familiar, but I have never been familiar with this land every moment.

The strange insects seemed to be hiding in the bushes and small animals heard my footsteps from time to time, and were alarmed to bring out the rustling of branches.

The shadowless time began to gradually show a corner of its appearance.

Little by little, it blends into the outline of the shadow of this strange bush. The clear day and night made me realize that the campus that I used to be so familiar that I could recognize when I closed my eyes were gradually shaped like a little bit, as if I was about to become a form that I could not recognize.

The tension in my heart piled up, and my steps began to hesitate.

The pace of moving forward slowed down with the hesitation in my heart.

It seemed like the night wind was blowing. Even though it was not cold, I timidly raised my shoulders, as if I was afraid of the cold, and looked around uneasy.

Naturally, all you can see in front of you is the outline of a shadow.But retreating is also impossible.

For Akisaka's promise, it is much more important than this fear.What's more, no matter how much I change my appearance, this is still my school.

etc……

strangeness!?

I stopped.

According to memory, one of the reasons why this is far away from street lights is because it is already a blind spot.

Although it is not that there is no way out, because the front leads to the abandoned building and is separated by a wall, there is no need to bother preparing the lighting there.

In my impression, that distance is only about 30 or 50 meters.

I walked for about five minutes, and for a normal student's pace, it was already a long distance.

But it seemed like there was still a road ahead, and I didn't encounter the expected wall at all.

Have you met?It’s hard to say whether it’s joy or sorrow. I took out my cell phone as soon as possible to call Aiban.

Moshimoshi... Oh, everything is not that bad. The phone is connected normally. Akisaka is also in the earpiece. There is no signal at all, and there is no such thing as ghosts roaring Ah or something like that.

The only drawback is that the signal here is very bad, and there is always a kind of intermittent noise when you speak, but it is also a very common noise. If you have to say it is supernatural, I think it is quite far-fetched.

While telling Akira's inference just now, I touched my chest, where there was a talisman posted by Akira classmate. According to Akira's words, when encountering ghosts, they should get hot and can bounce off the attack of Yin evil.

And the degree of heat is different according to the other party's strength.

Now it feels like it is a little hot, just like the heat generated after using the mobile phone for a long time.

The engravings on the arm are also very stable...

I breathed a sigh of relief. Although I came with the worst plan, it would be great if I could spend it safely.

After five minutes...

Ten minutes later...

I was still standing there, not a single person.

The talisman paper on the chest is as slight heat as ever, probably symbolizing safety.

The phone rings, it was Akisaka's number.
