The Great Detective of Gensokyo, but surrounded by Shura Field!

In addition to the abnormality of the water pipe, there is also the "inexplicably extra 13th step" incident.

She found the stairs leading to the second floor and tried to count them.

Not more, not less, exactly twelve, which is consistent with the normal number mentioned in the intelligence.

"Miss Alice, are there really twelve steps?"

Youmu said tremblingly:

"You didn't count wrong, did you?"

"I won't make such a stupid mistake."

Alice is quite confident in mathematics.

Seeing that Youmu didn't believe it, he didn't dare to count it himself.

She simply pulled Chu Bai over:

"Xiaobai, why don't you count the number of steps here? After all, this place seems to be related to supernatural events."

"no problem."

Since this is a preliminary investigation, it is natural to witness all the supernatural events with your own eyes.

Only by triggering it yourself can you try to find the truth behind it.

So Chu Bai stretched out his fingers and counted them one by one:

"Nine... ten... eleven... twelve..."

"Yes, it is twelve steps. It seems that the supernatural phenomena here have not been triggered."

After hearing Chu Bai's conclusion, Youmeng was obviously relieved.

She walked out from behind Alice, hesitated for a moment, and then mustered up the courage to count again herself.

It is not only to ensure the accuracy of the survey results, but also to give yourself an opportunity to exercise your courage.

So she stretched out her fingers and began to count:

"one two three four……"

On Chu Bai's side, he made a new discovery.

On the dining table next to them, there was a crumpled piece of paper.

On the note, there seemed to be a few words written crookedly in red handwriting.

Seeing Youmu counting the stairs, Chu Bai didn't bother her, but looked at Alice:

"Xiao Ai, do you remember the intelligence report about the supernatural phenomenon of the note?"

Alice shook her head.

"No, there didn't seem to be any mention of the note."

"That's strange. This house hasn't been occupied for a long time. Who would have left a new-looking note here?"

Chu Bai looked at the handwriting on the note in confusion.

The handwriting was very messy and he needed to carefully distinguish it before he could translate it.

Just as he was carefully trying to discern the meaning of the words.

Youmu behind him suddenly changed his voice to one of fear.

"Nine... ten... eleven... twelve..."

"…………Thirteen!"

"The number of steps is not twelve, but thirteen!!"

at the same time.

Chu Bai finally made out the handwriting on the note.

The above content, translated into...

I'm behind you

"!!!"

Pupils shrink suddenly.

Scalp numbness.

Chu Bai turned his head suddenly.

A face as pale as a corpse, now emitting a strange smile, was already pressed tightly in front of him...

Chapter 119: Supernatural Events in a Haunted House (Investigation)

"Grass!"

Chu Bai was so scared that his whole body trembled.

It was a completely subconscious action, he raised his hand and punched.

A punch filled with concentrated magic power directly pierced through the strange smiling face in front of him!

boom----

After the loud noise.

Holes in the wall.

The drizzle outside seeped in through the damaged walls.

But the pale smiling face that appeared out of nowhere disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

"...where are the people?"

Chu Bai's expression was solemn as he looked around vigilantly.

But I still couldn't sense any strange aura.

Inside the entire house, the only scent that could be felt was the presence of the three of them.

"Xiaobai, this house is so weird."

Alice said quickly:

"Youmu counted out the steps to the 'thirteenth floor'."

"When I appeared on the thirteenth staircase, I felt the atmosphere in the house change. It was as if something sinister was staring at me..."

Chu Bai didn't reply, he had the same feeling.

Standing on the stone tiles, he actually got goose bumps all over his body, as if something was moving around in his body.

And this subtle feeling is more concentrated in the lower body.

It was as if something extremely terrifying was hidden under the house...

"Let's go, get out of here first."

Feeling this cold and numbing breath becoming stronger and stronger, even the hairs on his legs began to stand up slightly.

Chu Bai no longer hesitated. After giving Xiao Ai a look, he made a decision immediately.

There really is something strange in this haunted house, and it’s a mysterious existence that none of the three of them can sense!

He grabbed Youmu and Xiaoai, quickly left the room, and flew away.

Torrential rain.

Thunder and lightning.

Flying in the rainstorm, the western-style building behind me gradually became more and more eerie and strange...

……

……

"...So why did you come to my house?"

Hakurei Shrine.

Reimu opened the door and looked helplessly at the three people in a state of disarray.

"And where on earth were you all? To have the three of you in such a mess at the same time...did you go fight the Dragon God?"

"Well, that's a long story."

Chu Bai entered the shrine quite casually, as if he had returned home.

Seeing Reimu standing next to him, he waved his hand:

"Please sit down, make yourself at home..."

“This is my home!”

Reimu twitched the corners of her mouth, but still considerately made some hot tea.

Each person drank a cup, and the steaming warm current rushed into the body, instantly dispelling the previous cold air.

After relaxing a little, Youmu suddenly revealed a relieved expression:

"As expected, Hakurei Shrine can give people a sense of security."

"...Your stance is a little off, isn't it? As a half-spirit, aren't you afraid of being defeated by me?"

Reimu sneered lightly with a hollow look in her eyes.

Chu Bai also calmed down at this time.

Seeing that Reimu was still confused, he simply let Youmu tell Reimu about what had just happened.

He took out his laptop:

"Well, now is the time to decrypt it."

"what?"

Youmeng was slightly stunned:

"We've already escaped in a panic, haven't we? How can we decrypt it?"

"Humph, this isn't a panicked escape; it's a strategic retreat."

Chu Bai waved to Alice:

"Bring the things here, Xiao Ai."

"Ok."

Alice retracted the thread in her hand with a rather sure flick of her wrist.

What was connected at the end of the silk thread was not a puppet, but several phantom drones.

This is the Yuedu technology product that Chu Bai used to monitor the girls on his own machine during the mutation.

And all the scenes they just experienced...

It has already been recorded clearly and accurately by drones from different angles.

……

……

That’s right, this is the backup plan Chu Bai left behind.

Although he was very confident in his own abilities, he knew that a haunted house was not something that could be overcome simply by being strong.

So he had made plans long ago and deployed drones around him in advance.

Part of it is controlled by Xiao Ai's silk thread, part of it is controlled by the remote control device in the pocket, and part of it is still in the haunted house, carrying out real-time monitoring and recording.

This ensures that even if a problem occurs on one side, the drone will not be destroyed, and at least a copy of the video can be preserved.

If there is a video recording, at least some clues can be analyzed remotely, which greatly reduces the time of field investigation and thus reduces the danger.
