Chapter 18 Section 5

After listening to Kusanagi's words, Yukawa folded his arms and fell into a moment of silence.There was a trace of unhappiness and doubt in the eyes behind the glasses.His right shoulder twitched slightly, and his brow furrowed. Kusanagi had long thought that he would be upset after hearing these things, after all he hated such words the most.But that's the way it is, there's no way. "You guy," Yu Chuan finally said, "you always create these weird problems for me. Before that, it was a ghost, and before that, it was the soul out of body, predictive dreams and so on..."

"I can't help it. Because of my professional relationship, I encounter more strange things than others." "Not all policemen are like you, who often encounter such pretentious things, right? You just said that this time it's 'Sao Ling'?" "I don't want to meet Sao Ling..." "Forget it." Tang Chuan sat on the chair and spread his hands, "Saoling, in German, it means a troublesome ghost. According to you, the furniture can move by itself, and the whole room is shaking. It's a ghost." Make trouble, I think you can make trouble."

Kusanagi leaned on the table with both hands and tried to explain: "I have said it several times, it is definitely a weird phenomenon. I also investigated later, and there was no record of an earthquake in that place that day. It is definitely not my hallucination or delusion, What's more, Yayoi Kanzaki was there to testify that day." Yukawa stood up slowly, and stretched out his palm in front of Kusanagi. "No one said it was your hallucination or illusion. If you don't say it, I know it's not an earthquake." "That means Ti admits that this is Sao Ling?"

"What I admit is that something similar to the haunting of Sao Ling has occurred." "How do you reason about this?" "That's the problem, and I think there's more to it than appearances." "what?" "Do you think the phenomenon of haunting has existed for a long time, or did it appear recently? Would it happen when the old lady lived alone?" "Well, if she had made a fuss before, she would have asked someone for help, right? I heard from Yayoi that her husband never talked about such a thing." "Really? That is to say, something that didn't happen before has happened now. Why is this? This is the first question. The second question is, why didn't these four people ask for help? According to the situation you introduced, Obviously, they are aware of this strange phenomenon. Under normal circumstances, they should take measures, such as asking experts to investigate, but they didn't do that. Why? Is it because they know the reason and don't want others to investigate? "

"You said they knew the reason? But..." Kusanagi folded her arms and looked up at the ceiling. "There was a woman with Buddhist beads hanging on her hand. I don't think they found a scientific explanation." "I didn't say they found a scientific explanation. If the woman had the prayer beads, she seemed to be superstitious and believed in hauntings, and that should be the explanation for all of them. There's only one thing I don't understand, why they keep Where do you live?" Tang Chuan scratched his head and walked to the window, looking out, his glasses flickered in the sunlight.

"What do you want to say?" Hearing Kusanagi's question, Yukawa turned to stare at him. "Have you reported this to your superiors?" "Report? No. If he finds out that I have broken into a private house, he will scold me again." "Then you should be prepared to be scolded and report to him. The situation may be more serious than you think."
