"The water in the cold pool?" Tengu squinted his eyes and lay on Yumuichi's back, "You used that kind of thing to repel the ghost just now?"

"Yeah." Tamaki returned in a succinct manner.

There was nothing to talk about between him and Tengu. After briefly stating his speculation, he stopped talking.

"Heh... I should have thought that since the river water has restraint on ghosts, the source of the river, the water in the cold pool must be even more terrifying. It's ironic that we were scared away by a few skeletons." Thinking of himself He, Qin Wenyu, and Gaoqiao Maoyue also went to Hantan, but instead of fetching water, he was frightened by the skulls that emerged from the Hantan, and he couldn't help laughing at himself.

"I went last night. When I went there, there were no skeletons in the pool." Yumuyi said.

"Then I'll be balanced, because you took water last night and alerted some existence in the cold pool, so we met the skull."

Tengu's spirit is better, and his physical strength is also recovering.

"Now? Can you find the location of the second body?" Tengu asked.

At this time, Yumu stopped, threw him off his back, and looked at him condescendingly: "It looks like you are all right."

Tengu looked at him with squinted eyes: "You are really unpleasant..."

"I don't need to please a high school student." While speaking, Tamaki took out a strange instrument.

"What is this?" Tengu got up from the ground, as if nothing had happened, patted his butt, and asked curiously.

As soon as Yumu pressed the switch of the instrument, a screen suddenly lit up, and a spot of light appeared on the screen and was flickering.

"Location, navigation, tracking, I left a transmitter at the second corpse yesterday, didn't you ask where the second corpse is?" Tamaki sneered, "Here. High school student, this is That's what adults do."

Tengu's eyes turned cold, and then he laughed again.

"You've been taught, this time, you win," Tengu slowly opened his narrowed eyes, "However, the high school student you mentioned has already been thrown away by me, at least for a long time. He won't show up again, maybe forever..."

Tamaki, who had been secretly watching their actions, naturally understood what Tengu was talking about.

When he fled before, Tengu threw away his mask. If the mask is the embodiment of the soul, then the discarded mask...

It is a soul that has been eaten by a group of ghosts.

The soul of the real, murderous-eyed high school student named Deer Island.

Tengu is another personality of Deer Island. Now, Tengu has become the dominant character, but when Tamaki heard his tone, it seemed that Tengu was not happy about the disappearance of Deer Island's soul.

The two walked silently towards the light spot on the instrument.

After a while, Tengu spoke again: "I have a very important question to ask you."

"Say." Tamaki replied.

Tengu stopped and looked at him: "You can save me at the critical moment before, it means that you have been paying attention to our actions, or that you have actually been around us, so why did you choose to follow me? "

"That woman named Takahashi Uzuki is the root cause of your initiative to intervene in the sacrificial banquet mission this time, isn't it?"

As soon as Tamaki fell silent, he couldn't explain this question.

Seeing this, Tengu suddenly smiled: "Or do you know it's useless to follow her?"

"Or rather, meaningless."

"Enough! It's none of your business, hurry up and find the second body. If you delay a little longer, things will become more troublesome." After speaking, Yumu ignored him and walked forward.

Tengu glanced at Tamakiichi's figure, his smile gradually subsided, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this time, Takahashi Uzuki, whom the two had just mentioned, was struggling forward in the terrifying forest full of ghosts.

Her face was pale, her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her steps became more and more difficult. She gritted her teeth and kept urging herself to move on.

The trees in the forest can turn into ghosts anytime and anywhere, so she had to tense up and change direction as soon as she sensed something was wrong.

A gust of cool wind blew and blew on Takahashi Uzuki, making her shiver all over. She looked up at the sky, the sun was immersed in the clouds, and the clouds were low and thick, which brought her an endless sense of oppression.

At this time, Takahashi Uzuki suddenly heard a weak gasp!

"Hiss...ha..."

"Hoo... hiss..."

Takahashi Uzuki froze, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the panting.

Is it a ghost?

Her pupils shrank...

Do not!

It's the mouth of a lion!

It's Mr. Shishikou whose right palm was bitten off by a ghost!

At this moment, the short and stout man fell in front of a bush, unable to move.

Takahashi Uzuki ran over immediately: "Mr. Shizikou? Sir?"

"can you hear my voice?"

The state of Shizikou is extremely bad.

He fell in front of the grass and opened his eyes with difficulty.

It took two or three tries before he opened his eyes fully.

Before he could speak, Takahashi Uzuki saw the anxiety in Shishikou's eyes.

"What's wrong with you? Mr. Shizikou?"

Takahashi Uzuki just wanted to help him up, but Shishikou opened his mouth, his mouth was covered with sticky blood.

"..."

"What do you want to say, Mr. Lion's Mouth?"

Takahashi Uzuki stared at Shishikou's mouth, hoping to read what he wanted to say through his lips.

But... Lion's mouth is too weak, it is difficult for her to tell what he wants to say from the shape of his mouth.

"I'll help you up first, and you can talk after you have a good rest." Takahashi Uzuki gave up the idea of ​​reading his lips, and just wanted to help Shishikou up, but found that his lower body seemed to be stuck in the grass.

She grabbed the clothes on Shishikou's shoulders and dragged him out forcefully.

The next moment... Takahashi Uzuki's brain was completely occupied by fear...

The lower part of Lion's Mouth itself...disappeared.

From the abdomen down, the organs were exposed and dragged on the ground.

It looks like his body was bitten off alive by some kind of extremely huge beast...

At this time, Takahashi Uzuki finally read the shape of Shishikou's mouth.

"Walk……"

"It's in the back..."

"Let's go..."

"Quick... let's go..."

Shishikou's eyes quickly turned gray, and his weak moaning and breathing also disappeared suddenly.

he died.

At this moment, Takahashi Uzuki noticed that a huge shadow was cast in front of her.

Something extremely tall... was standing behind her.

Takahashi Uzuki slowly turned his head trembling, and a strong stench came over his face.

It's... a monster.

It seems to be made up of all kinds of corpses... Huge body, densely packed limbs... Heads with different appearances...

Takahashi Uzuki saw the certificate hanging on one of the corpses... Maruyasu Co., Ltd.... Mitsui Kosuke.

She gets it.

This thing... has absorbed the bodies of all those who committed suicide in this forest.

"Woo"

It made a strange cry like a baby crying, with densely packed heads all over its body, it opened its eyes and looked at her at the same time...
