I directed the mythical revival in Tokyo

Chapter 5 Reporter
[Zheya, if you see this note, it means that I may have left this world. I am deeply sorry that I can't be with you when you step into the wedding hall. ]

[The existence of the Holy Spirit Church is like a leech, clinging to countless families.]

[Next, I may do something very impulsive. I am a loser and an escapist. My brain is far inferior to yours, but I hope that in the last moments of my life, I can bring you something.]

[I have bought a large amount of accidental death insurance. Through this insurance, I hope your life can return to normal. ]

【Finally, I want to tell you that I love you. 】

Yamagami Tetsuya looked at the letter in his hand. The handwriting revealed his brother's helplessness and guilt. He remained silent, as if an invisible force bound him.

Then, he slowly put the envelope into his arms and glanced at everything in the house. Those familiar decorations and furnishings seemed to be telling of his and his brother's past memories.

"call……"

He sighed.

Yamagami Tetsuya had a very sharp mind. He recalled the inexplicable words his brother had said to him in the room that day.

Everything makes sense now.

He did not notice the despair and helplessness hidden in those words in time.

He suddenly regretted what he said to his brother out of his irritability. Perhaps that really became the last straw that broke the camel's back for his brother?
So it was already at that time?

Tetsuya Yamagami stood in the room in pain, his heart filled with endless regret and self-blame.

Early morning, home on the mountain.

Suddenly, there was a hurried knock on the door, breaking the silence.

"Knock knock knock..." The knocking on the door became more and more frequent.

Yamagami Tetsuya sat at the dinner table, his eyes full of dark circles, obviously he did not get enough rest last night.

At this moment, he was listlessly fiddling with the rice in the bowl, ignoring the sounds outside the door.

"Who is it? Why comes here so early in the morning?" The mother on the mountain complained as she slowly walked towards the door, muttering to herself.

"I'm coming!"

As her footsteps faded away, the sounds outside the door also slowly disappeared.

When she opened the door and saw the person coming, the mother on the mountain's back immediately felt less angry.

"Excuse me, what is this?"

"Hello, is this Yamagami Tomiya's house? We are local patrol police and are here to investigate some information. Please cooperate with us." One of the policemen politely showed his ID.

When she heard the police coming to the door, Shan Shang's mother's heart sank, her face turned pale in an instant, and she asked in a trembling voice.

"Mr. Police! What happened? Our Yamagami Fuye has always been a good kid!"

The police officer motioned for her to calm down first, then said, "Can we go in and talk?"

Tetsuya Yamagami was sitting at the dinner table. Although he was tired, he still keenly captured the conversation between his mother and the police.

He probably guessed the purpose of the police's visit, so he put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and spoke to his sister.

"Come on, let's go inside and paint in the room."

He stood up and took his sister's hand and walked into the inner room.

The two patrolmen sat on the sofa, watching Yamagami Tetsuya pulling his sister away from the living room, and couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

They secretly admired in their hearts: It is true that children from poor families grow up early. They actually understood that they need to avoid suspicion at this time without any notice.

Turning around, the patrolman looked at the nervous and lost mother on the mountain in front of him, and spoke slowly.

"It's like this, Ms. Yamagami, we have very sad news to inform you. Your child, Yamagami Tomi, was unfortunately lost in a fire at the Holy Spirit Church yesterday."

Hearing this, Shan Shang’s mother’s body instantly collapsed on the sofa, her head resting on her knees and crying loudly.

"Why did this happen? We are such a pious family, why did something so tragic happen to our family?"

Looking at the mother crying on the mountain, the patrolmen felt sad even though they were used to such scenes.

Head Shiratori took out a handkerchief from his pocket, handed it to her, and began to comfort her.

Normally, he wouldn't need to come in person, but he wanted to find out the specific situation of the Shan Shang family, so he decided to come and take a look.

At this time, Yamagami Tetsuya slowly closed the door, walked to his mother's side, put his hands on her shoulders, and kept patting her to comfort her.

Trying to stay calm, he asked, "Excuse me, officer, where is my brother's body?"

"Due to the fierce fire at the scene of the fire, Mr. Yamagami Tomiya suffered extensive damage to his body and severe tissue loss. According to relevant regulations, the body has been sent to the crematorium for proper disposal. Please accept my condolences." "Even if the body is extensively damaged, don't the family members need to sign?"

"We don't know the specifics! The message has been delivered, please excuse us!"

After saying that, the patrol police placed a postcard with the body's storage location and contact information on the table.

Shiratori looked at the grief-stricken Yamagami's mother, thought for a moment, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Yamagami Tetsuya.

"If you need any help, you can give me a call and I will do my best to help."

"Please grief!"

The two stood up and bowed to the mountain mother and Zheye to say goodbye.

"Crench!"

Yamagami Tetsuya hugged his mother tightly, feeling her crying and trembling in his arms.

His hands unconsciously grabbed his trouser legs, trying to stay calm in this way.

He stared deeply into his mother's sorrow-stricken face, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

It was clearly her joining the church that caused this family’s tragedy!

But surprisingly, he did not have any anger or hatred at all, only endless sorrow.

Whether it is this family! Or this society! Or this world!

It's terrible!

Ding Ding Ding!
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang, breaking the heavy atmosphere.

"Mom, please wait a moment, I'll go answer the phone." Yamagami Tetsuya said softly to his mother.

He walked to the phone and picked up the receiver: "Hello, this is Shan Shangjia. What can I do for you?"

"Hello, I'm from Tokyo Tomoshin Insurance Co., Ltd. Your family member, Mr. Yamagami Tomiya, has purchased a large amount of insurance from us. Now we need you to come as soon as possible to sign and receive the insurance. Thank you for your cooperation." A professional and polite voice came from the other end of the phone.

Brother, is this the last legacy you leave us?
Yamagami Tetsuya hung up the phone with a complicated expression.

【Asahi Shimbun】

Mishima was a writer who had just graduated and joined a newspaper. At this time, he was in great excitement.

In his notebook, the words "Master Yasuda" and "Tomiya Yamagami" were clearly written, and the information of the other three victims was densely arranged next to them.

These names and information form an intricate network, and at the center of this network is the key figure "Mother on the Mountain".

Mishima stared at the name in the center of the notebook. The arrow on the left pointed to "Yasuda Muma", with the word "believer" written on it; the arrow on the right pointed to "Yamagami Tomiya", with the word "mother and son" written on it.

The names of the remaining victims were linked to "Yasuda Muma" and were annotated with the same "cultist" label.

"Yasuda is the true owner of the Holy Spirit Church!"

Mishima whispered to himself, his heart beating faster, he had a feeling he had touched the edge of the truth.

He recalled the explosion-like death of Yamagami Tomiya, and combined with the fact that Yamagami's mother was a church member, a bold hypothesis formed in his mind.

"Could it be that this was a premeditated suicide bombing?"

This thought was like a flash of lightning across the night sky, making Mishima so excited that he almost jumped up.

He never expected that he would encounter such an explosive event just after joining the newspaper. It was like a huge opportunity given to him by God.

If we investigate from this direction, then...

Mishima suddenly remembered that his friend was performing an autopsy in the hospital, and he walked straight out of the Asahi Shimbun.

"Hey, Mishima, what are you going to do?!"

"I'll go get the materials!"

That’s right! If I’m not mistaken, there’s definitely more to this than meets the eye. This isn’t just a simple fire accident!

"Hello! Is this Ishii? It's me! Mishima, are you free to get together at our old place? I want to talk to you, yes! It's about the body that was suspected to be destroyed by the explosion that you told me about before!"

"Don't you know me well enough? You charge me for all the expenses!"
