Chapter 135: The So-Called Paper Man Is...
"Uh... Takagi-san, have you seen this girl?"
Yoshiyuki pointed to the girl in the corner of the photo and asked hesitantly.
"Huh? Isn't there no one there? The only one in the photo is the beast-eared girl, right?" Classmate Takagi looked at the photo and said with some surprise: "What, did you see anything special?"
"Yes." Yoshiyuki turned to Erina and asked, "Miss, can you see it too?"
"Hmm..." Erina stared at the photo, a little surprised: "This child is also wearing a kimono like Hime-chan, and wears Higan flowers as hair accessories! But they look completely different, so they are definitely not Hime-chan's sisters."
Demon Sword Girl tilted her head and thought for a while.
Then, I wrote this paragraph in my notebook.
[In the past, the ancient kingdom of Sakurajima was infiltrated by the water of the underworld because it was connected to the underworld. As a result, there are many Hibiscus flowers growing here. Women in Sakurajima country like to use cherry blossoms and Higan flowers as hair accessories to decorate themselves. 】
"Hime-chan knows a lot." Yoshiyuki nodded: "If that's the case, it makes sense. Perhaps one of the main reasons why Sakurajima set up a barrier in the Bell Tower Library was to suppress those who used to wander in the ruins of the ancient city. The ghost spirit..."
When the Sakurajima Kingdom was destroyed, no one in the country survived. Naturally, no one who has personally experienced it can tell the outside world what happened.
Therefore, later generations can only speculate based on the ruins and some rumors.
It was probably the gate of the underworld that opened, causing the passage in the ancient Sakurajima country to go out of control, and a large amount of underworld water and evil things poured out from it, swallowing the whole city.
Sakura God Chuxue was powerless to prevent all this from happening, and no one offered sacrifices for a long time after the Battle of the Sealing Gate. It wasn't until the arrival of Yingxue's family that the dilapidated and overgrown shrine was restored.
Demon Sword Girl's explanation made the three of them sigh in relief.
Erina, in particular, felt much more at ease. Continuing to get excited, Xiaoji was lifted up.
The technique is exactly the same as when making rua dumplings.
This of course caused Takagi-san to exclaim.
"That... I was very concerned about it just now! Who is this child?" Takagi Yoko looked at Erina and Erina expectantly and asked, "Is she the Hime you are talking about?"
"Yes! I forgot to introduce you!" Erina touched Ji-chan's head with great pride and introduced: "This is Demon Sword Princess? The good friend we met yesterday! Now we all call her Ji-chan. Here! Hime-chan, this is Takagi Yoko~ Come on, say hello!"
Xiao Ji nodded towards her.
In fact, this introduction is just a formality.
After all, if there were no surprises, Xiaoji would have known Takagi-san for a long time.
"Hello, Demon Sword Princess~" Takagi Yoko waved to her with a smile: "Just call me Takagi! I am a friend of Yida-chan and Maekawa-kun? Please take care of me in the future! Ah, by the way, I do too Can I call you Xiaoji?"
Xiao Ji nodded. Then I didn’t say anything else using my notebook.
This behavior revealed a silent domineering attitude.
It's like telling the other party, "I have read it."
"Huh?" Takagi saw that she had no other reaction, and suddenly looked a little embarrassed: "That..."
"Ah, I'm sorry. Hime-chan doesn't usually speak." Erina quickly explained, "So when I need to communicate, I use body language and words to express it."
"Oh, that's it!" Takagi clapped his hands and suddenly became happy again: "This is the so-called mouthless attribute! It's great! This is the first time I've seen it in reality! It's like something out of an anime The girls who came out are the same!"
"Hmph~ Hime-chan is more than that!" Erina proudly showed off: "Hime-chan, she is just as awesome as a real paper doll girl!"
"That is to say, Ji-chan can turn into a paper form! I understand!" Takagi chuckled: "That's really awesome! You can go under the door and carry out secret room killings and so on! I often see it recently Such a technique!"
"What? Are there any?!" Yi Xing was greatly surprised: "Has the trend in the reasoning world reached this point? They all use magic to kill people, so what else is there to reason about!"
"That's right! This is as boring as those novels where detectives analyze the whole book and end up saying that people are killed by ghosts!" Erina complained.
"But it is true? The best-selling mystery books recently all have the method of using magic to turn yourself into a piece of paper to commit murder!" Takagi Yoko took out a book from his pocket happily: "For example, this!"
Many Japanese books are pocket books. That is, it is only about the size of a palm.
This is for easy carrying and reading.
Takagi took out a novel of this size.
The cover depicts a man who was flattened as if he had been struck by a two-dimensional foil.
The title of the book is "A Painting Murder Case Once in a Millennium".
The subtitle is: "Who is the man lurking in the painting...?"
"Don't tell me that the man in the painting is the murderer." Yoshiyuki pointed to the cover and asked speechlessly.
"Huh? Maekawa-kun really guessed it right away!" Takagi-san looked very surprised: "It's really amazing!"
"Ah no, you already said that you turned yourself into a piece of paper to kill people!" Yi Xing clicked his tongue and complained: "This method is too boring! What's there to see? He actually became a It’s a bestseller, I really can’t understand it!”
"Actually, it's quite interesting!" Takagi Yeyeko rubbed his head and chuckled, looking extremely stupid: "Especially when Mr. Detective discovered that the murderer never left the secret room from beginning to end!"
"That is to say, they analyzed it for a long time and finally thought that this guy hid on the wall and turned into a painting after killing people, right?" Yoshiyuki asked, covering his face.
"That's right! How about it? It sounds interesting, right?"
"No, it's still boring!"
"That's right. And Hime-chan isn't the kind of paper person who will turn into pieces of paper." Erina hugged Youtohime, allowing her head to fully enjoy the feeling of being massaged by the cushioning air cushion, and said proudly: " The similarity between her and the pretty girl on paper is that she will never age~ and she won’t sweat or urinate at all!”
"What?! So great!" After hearing this, Takagi felt envious: "Wow...that's amazing! Isn't she also feeling cool now?"
"That's right. Because the weather was very hot, I hugged her a lot to cool down!" Erina said, and hugged Hime even tighter, with a look of enjoyment on her face: "It's so comfortable!"
"Ah this - Miss, is that why you hug me so tightly?!" Yoshiyuki was stunned for a moment and complained: "It's completely like a human air conditioner!"
