Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 258 The Return of the Dead Soul
"The fog is all over the mountains, and the sound of the water harp awakens the dream..."

"Tea grows in the ancient temple, and white paper flutters to attract old souls..."

Tailtail whispered and struck the bronze chime, and the echo from afar seemed to bring other sounds. The windows crackled, and the crystal chandelier had poor contact and flickered.

Gen Yuzi was so scared that she clung to Fushimi Shika. She had never seen such a scene in her life. Although she knew that ghosts were nothing to be afraid of, the atmosphere was like the prelude to the appearance of ghosts in a horror movie, which made her feel creepy.

“——Go back!!”

Ojou raised his skinny arms high and let out a hoarse cry that was almost a howl. Everyone was startled and leaned back.

Fushimi Shika squinted his eyes and studied carefully, feeling as if he was watching a soul-calling show in the countryside in his previous life.

Suddenly, a strange water organ sound came from outside the house, distorted and turbid, like the whistle of an ancient cave, giving people goose bumps.

Princess Kiko and Ono Ken both changed color. They turned around and asked others if they had heard the strange sound. Gen Tamako and Yazaki Momo nodded repeatedly, saying that they had heard it too.

"Why didn't I hear it?" Fushimi Lu frowned.

He really didn't hear any strange noises. It was rather as if the outside suddenly became quiet, and even the sound of thunder and rain outside disappeared.

Now their faces turned even paler. Before her death, Akishino Mako claimed that she heard the sound of the water piano, but Princess Kiko and others did not hear anything unusual. It was exactly the same as the current situation.

"Now is not the time to play tricks!" Yuan Yuzi's teeth were chattering: "Did you really not hear it?"

"Not really."

Fushimi Shika didn't know what the trick was. His face became serious and he felt inexplicably annoyed.

After hearing this, the others felt that Fushimi Shika was truly capable, but Fushimi Shika himself began to become suspicious.

Tail Shangfeng listened attentively for a moment, put down the bronze chime, and announced in a low voice:
"The ritual is complete."

Princess Kiko looked around but didn't see her daughter's ghost. She looked puzzled and was about to ask, but she saw Oue suddenly lift up the white cloth on the small table, revealing a quaint old-fashioned mechanical typewriter.

The hammer is quite exquisite, the ribbon is soaked with red ink, and the body frame is pure gold, with strange patterns carved on it.

"Now, the lost souls have awakened. You can ask questions at any time, but remember to clearly state the name of the person you are asking." said Onoue Feng.

Yuan Yuzi was confused, thinking that this was different from what she had read in the book! Shouldn't the ghost be possessed by the medium and speak through the medium's mouth? What did it mean to take out a typewriter?
Princess Kiko was the most nervous and apprehensive. She took a deep breath and spoke first, tentatively asking, "Akishinomiya Mako... are you... are you there?"

despair!
The keyboard keys suddenly moved out of thin air, as if an invisible hand pressed down the keyboard, leaving a letter on the parchment.

【Y】

Yuan Yuzi thought, what does 'Y' mean? Yes? Isn't this too general?
Before she could speak, the typewriter clicked twice, as if a transparent person was looking for other letters, thus creating a time gap.

【yes】

Princess Kiko's eyes were filled with tears, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and she showed a sad smile. At this moment, everyone was looking at her, but she was speechless for a moment.

"Akishinomiya Mako, are you committing suicide?" Fushimi Shika suddenly asked.

Yuan Yuzi turned her head, thinking that it was very rude for him to interrupt at this time. The mother and daughter were separated by life and death, and they finally had the opportunity to reunite. They should at least let them exchange a few words, right? Even if they had to investigate the case, it wouldn't cost them a little time!

But she thought about it again and felt that Fushimi-kun was right. What if the spiritual ceremony was interrupted at the critical moment? Isn't this kind of plot often seen in TV dramas? The victim fell into the arms of the protagonist, and said with his dying breath: "The murderer is..." Then his head tilted and he died. She was so angry that her stomach hurt. Well, it's better to ask early and feel at ease!
Tap———

The typewriter typed out two letters by itself. Everyone stared at it and was suddenly shocked.

【NO】

Not suicide?

In other words, Akishino Mako was murdered? !
Princess Kiko's eyes widened, and she clutched the hem of her kimono. The heartbroken expression of a mother was heartbreaking. She opened her mouth and was about to ask who killed him, but she saw Fushimi Shika suddenly stand up.

"enough."

He stared at the seam on the tail and said word by word: "You shouldn't lie to a hurt mother."

Gen Tamako then remembered that Yazaki Momo had hired Fushimi Kaka to sabotage her. They had agreed that if Onoue Naruto used the psychic ritual to question the police's investigation results, Fushimi Kaka would expose her deception - Gen Tamako had forgotten this.

At the moment, Fushimi Shika was feeling inexplicably irritated. It was too quiet outside, and too quiet all around. Even the voices of angels and demons had disappeared, which made him particularly uncomfortable, and he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.

When he feels uneasy, he becomes extremely aggressive.

Fushimi Shika stepped over the circle drawn in blood without hesitation. Under the surprised gaze of everyone, he suddenly pulled open the fireplace partition. There was a dull bang, and the assistant fell down the chimney.

Fushimi Shika bent down and snatched a bulky signal transmitter from his hand. He pressed a button and the typewriter clicked and struck the hammer by itself.

Everyone then remembered that the assistant had gone upstairs to check and had not returned. They thought he was hiding on the fireplace and controlling the typewriter remotely... If the distance was too far, the signal would not reach; if the distance was too close, the bulky remote control would be discovered.

"How despicable!"

Gen Yuzi was very angry, not only because Onoue psychic deceived Princess Kiko, but also because she was also scared. Just now, she really believed that there was a ghost operating the typewriter...

Thinking about how great Detective Yuzi had been all her life, she had suffered a Waterloo and was fooled by a liar pretending to be a psychic. Naturally, she was a little angry and embarrassed.

Before she could make further accusations, Osakafeng's eyes suddenly rolled back and a strange sound, almost a moan, came out of her throat. She fell to the ground with a thud, with only the whites of her eyes left.

Everyone was startled and stepped back, only to see that Osaka's body was twisted, his limbs were folded, and the strange sound coming out of his mouth gradually turned into the voice of a young girl: "Mom...Mom..."

Princess Kiko's heart trembled and she covered her mouth. She recognized that this was the voice of her deceased daughter!
"Mother……"

"you……"

"kill me……"

"You...all...deserve to die!!"

At the moment the words fell, the typewriters began to clatter, and the sound of the water organ outside the house became more and more rapid, echoing in everyone's ears like a roar. Suddenly, there was a muffled clang from upstairs, followed by thunder and rain, as if the sliding door of the balcony was opened, and wind and rain poured in.

clang--

The western clock rang again.
