Chapter 71: Commonality of the Dead

***

"You are worse than an animal! You treated it like this because you knew I bet on that horse!"

Nakahara was furious and pointed at Dazai and cursed.

Dazai stood behind Tiantian and Toge, making them look like a gang.

Nakahara wanted to pull Dazai out of them but was afraid of offending Tiantian and Toge. The atmosphere was a bit tense before, so it was not suitable for physical conflict now.

"Are you a human? That horse was bleeding and its intestines were about to come out, and you were in the mood to go karaoke that night?"

Seeing Dazai's indifferent expression, Nakahara became even more angry and continued to vent his anger at Dazai.

At this time, Dazai finally showed his ugly face.

The tall, handsome man said nonchalantly, "You are the one who draws blood, not me. Why am I not in the mood to sing karaoke?"

Nakahara: "..."

Several people from the technical college: "..."

I have seen that there were all kinds of people in this society.

Tiantian glanced at the time and turned to Nakahara.

"Mr. Nakahara, since you and this gentleman are old acquaintances, we can't bother you. If it is convenient, please take this gentleman away first, and we will go to collect clues first."

"As for sparring, I don't care. After all, meeting is fate. But if Mr. Nakahara wants to spar with me, I suggest that we do it under the eyes of Chief Mori, so that no matter who bumps into us, it will be easy to talk about it."

Nakahara: "..."

After this, Nakahara was unexpectedly silent.

Originally, he didn't want to alarm the leader when we fought in private.

Now it's good, what would happen if he fight in front of the leader? He could be directly listed as a negative example of the diplomacy of the Port Mafia.

"We won't send him off?"

After that, Tiantian and Toge tacitly and consciously stepped aside to reveal Dazai behind them. Toge gently pushed Dazai to let him walk a few steps without any illness.

"If there is nothing else, let's take a good tour of this Suribachi City."

Maki half-crouched on the roof, looking down at a group of people, and didn't know when she had a lollipop in her mouth.

"By the way, are there any famous attractions nearby? Or is there a place to buy gifts?"

Junpei, who was going out for the first time, looked around the "poor than board cyberpunk" streets in a daze, and whispered to Panda.

"Ah!!"

When it came to this, Dazai was not sleepy anymore.

"Isn't the recent famous tourist attraction the incident where 12 or 11 people were killed by finger cookies? As for figurines... if you go early, you might find some weird and unusual human tissues in the victim's home."

Junpei: "..."

Finger cookies... that's the finger of the legendary Ryomen Sukuna. God knew how nervous and excited he was when he was being popularized. But in Dazai's mouth... it felt so low.

This person was so strange.

Dazai's eyes sparkled, one hand was flat, and the other hand was clenched into a fist; then he knocked it with a 'snap' sound, as if he had thought of a good idea.

"Why don't we go and have a look together? And I don't know this dwarf at all, please don't just lump us together like that."

Nakahara: "!"

"I was wondering why I saw you, a jerk, in this place called Suribachi City! Sure enough, you came here with a purpose."

"As expected of the Armed Detective Agency, you have dug up this kind of thing, no, I must follow you, don't try to do anything bad!"

Nakahara suddenly realized and pointed at Dazai and yelled.

"Cerebral palsy dwarf, what else? I have nothing to do and go to this garbage dump to pick up food? If you want to come together, come together, don't make excuses."

Dazai smiled and gave Nakahara a warm greeting and ruthless exposure without hesitation.

"F*ck you!"

It seems that Nakahara was about to explode again.

Tiantian: "..."

There qwre so many complaints.

The feeling that Dazai and Nakahara give people...

Some games were like this, when two inexplicable NPCs pop out from the bushes on the side of the road; they first stammer and flutter about the plot, and then start to request to join the team.

Nakahara hadn't left yet, and he probably wouldn't leave later.

This Brother Nakahara was a face-loving person, and he's okay with people; he wouldn't do anything to them even for the sake of the overall situation.

However, it's hard to say about this young man with dark brown eyes.

Good guy, he even messed with the horse, he's a ruthless person.

"Stop arguing, everyone."

Tiantian raised her hand gently to stop the two from arguing.

"..."

It may be that the terrifying deterrence of her ruthless chicken catching just now stimulated the primitive fear of every man.

The two of them were silent at the same time and turned to look at her.

"Whether to leave or stay, everyone should make a decision quickly. Keep arguing— when it gets dark, all kinds of monsters will come out, and it will be funny if they kill us all."

Tiantian said expressionlessly.

"Oh, what a joke."

Hearing this, Nakahara crossed his arms in disdain and sneered.

Oh, women just think too much.

"I don't know what Suribachi City looks like? On the surface, it's a mysterious slum and a place for demons to live. In fact, it's just a place for a group of smuggled refugees and deadbeats to rely on. What kind of ability can such a group produce? I'll put them in the ICU in a minute."

Tiantian: "..."

She didn't think that the people here would have the ability and money to live in the ICU after being beaten halfway.

Play was play, and making noise was making noise.

After the quarrel, the two of them joined the high school's scouting team without exception.

"Everyone, let's go to the victim's house closest to us first."

Walk slowly, and you can reach Shigyo Akira's house after about five more houses.

According to reliable information from the Chief Mori Ogai, Shigyo was the last victim. After his death, the finger disappeared.

"Before that, I'll pat everyone. There's a saying in our hometown: Patting and getting rid of bad luck can bring good luck."

After that, Tiantian didn't give everyone a chance to ask questions, and she patted several people on the shoulders.

"?"

After patting Toge, Maki, Panda, and Junpei, who all looked confused, at once.

Tiantian was just about to finish her action.

"Dangdang!"

Dazai's eyes continued to shine like light bulbs, and he uttered a strange interjection, and then stood in front of Tiantian with an expectant look.

That expression was like a child asking for candy.

Tiantian: "..."

She was strangely silent for a while, and finally stepped forward to pat Dazai's shoulder; by the way, she patted the shoulder of Nakahara, who had a sour face.

"..."

Nakahara crossed his arms and looked unhappy, but he said nothing and let her pat his shoulders.

[Home teleportation, marking successful.]

The system's voice came in Tiantian's mind, and Tiantian withdrew his hand after achieving her goal.

If she promised Satoru that she would protect everyone's safety, then this was her trump card.

Although the homeland seemed a bit useless when she was out, at the critical moment, the homeland would play a role in breaking through the space limit and ensuring the personal safety of companions to the greatest extent.

Of course, this Port Mafia and the horse were not in her previous plan, and it was purely accidental.

The sky gradually darkened, and the sunset slowly left.

In the darkness, the night of Suribachi City was extremely quiet. Occasionally, the lights of the refugees' homes were lit, and the pendant stars in the dark night were particularly warm.

Tiantian and a few people visited the homes of the first five victims in a short half hour.

During this period, they were robbed by seven groups of people, and even two of them were from the same group.

With the foul smell of sewers around her nose and the increasingly excessive harassment from the crowd on Suribachi City, the irritability of Tiantian's ancestors gradually began to collapse and explode.

"The first one is the Shigryo family... wait, there seems to be someone inside?"

Maki raised the long sword in her hand, narrowed her eyes, and took every step very steadily. Since the first attack, she had not wrapped the long sword with cloth again.

In front of him, there was a faint light coming from the house of Shigyo Akira.

"Ah, a dead person's house can also be recycled. It's worthy of being the place where the dwarf grew up."

Dazai pinched his nose, as if this could block some of the stench of the sewer; by the way, he taunted Nakahara in a sarcastic way.

"...I should have let you get chopped up by that idiot with a hammer just now!"

Nakahara rolled his eyes at Dazai. He was almost out of patience after bickering all the way.

And just as the two rolled their eyes.

The lights in Shigyo's old house began to flicker, as if an invisible moth was slowly dancing around the candle, making the lights flicker.

"..."

Everyone's attention was attracted by the strange phenomenon in Shigyo's house.

"..."

Junpei swallowed silently, and he quietly raised his fingertips, and a tiny ice-blue jellyfish circled around his fingertips.

"Let's not talk about who is in the house."

Dazai stood beside Tiantian and spoke slowly.

"After we visited the addresses of the five victims, did Miss Yaga find a common point?"

"…?"

Tiantian was stunned when she heard this.

Common point.

Vision, smell, hearing.

Smell, it's a smell.

That kind of rotten sewer smell, with the deeper and deeper exploration, this sewer smell gradually became heavier.

*snap*

The lights in the room went out silently.

"…"

Tiantian was silent, staring at the dark and dilapidated little house.

Toge was speechless on the side. He silently held Tiantian's hand, and the other hand was slowly pulling down the high collar on his clothes, revealing the corner of his lips engraved with the curse without reservation.

"…"

For some reason, a panic began to spread in Tiantian's heart.

The black hut in front of her was like the mouth of a giant beast that devoured living people; it was particularly eye-catching in the quiet and desolate night.

She blinked hard, silently held Toge's hand back, and her vigilance in her heart increased by twelve points.

Sewer.

The sewers of Suribachi City were gradually developed by the earliest local forces, and they were complicated, but the water capacity was not small.

Every family they visited just now had a sewer near them.

If someone deliberately threw Ryomen Sukuna's finger into Suribachi City, what was his pattern?

Was it the family with a sewer near their home.

Or,

He lurked in the sewer and threw it into whichever house he went to?

What would walk around in the sewer with Ryomen Sukuna's finger?
