Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

Chapter 210 Arriving at the commissioned location,

Fir tree, also called fir, has a straight trunk, gray or dark gray bark, up to two meters in diameter at breast height, and up to fifty meters in height.

Driving along the national highway in the mountains, the dense fir trees on both sides blocked the sun and the sky, and seemed to blur day and night, and the boundaries between life and death.

After passing through the dark and long forest area, the scenery suddenly opened up, showing large flat fields and quiet villages scattered in the fields——

This is the outfield village.

While taking in the panoramic view of the village, everyone quickly noticed that on the hillside opposite them stood a castle-like Western-style house, which looked out of place with the entire village and was very grand.

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked curiously:

"What's that building?"

The castle on the hillside and the village at the foot of the mountain echo each other, forming an interesting layout. Moriarty raised his eyebrows and smiled:

"From a distance, it looks a bit like the European Middle Ages."

Matthew quickly reacted and echoed with a smile:

"The professor is probably talking about European castle culture, right?"

As she spoke, she explained to Fujimaru Ritsuka and others.

Because of their military attributes, ancient European castles were often built on mountains that were easy to defend and difficult to attack. The lords lived in castles on the mountains, and the people who chose to depend on the lords would build cities at the foot of the mountains.

From this point of view, the scene in front of me does look a bit like that layout.

"Maybe that's what the other party thinks."

After listening to Ma Xiu's explanation, Nanfang Rihe opened his mouth and said:

"That's the house of the Kirishiki family that just moved to Soba Village."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions when they looked at the castle suddenly changed.

The Kirishiki family is very rich, but behaves strangely. This is the current consensus among the villagers.

Needless to say, being rich means being able to live in such a castle, have cars to pick you up when traveling, and dress very fashionably.

Moreover, in addition to her husband Kirishiki Masashiro, his wife Kirishiki Chizuru, and his daughter Kirishiki Sako, there are also dedicated servants to take care of their daily life.

The strange behavior means that Kirishiki and his wife basically only go out shopping at night, and their daughter is rarely seen.

During the day, the villagers could only see their servant Chensi outside.

Just now Nanfang Rihe mentioned that she believed that the current spate of deaths of villagers in Waichang Village was caused by a monster similar to a resurrected corpse.

The villagers died one after another just after the Kirishiki family moved in, and many family members of the deceased pointed out that the deceased had met the Kirishiki family before their death.

There are various signs that the Kirishiki family is quite suspicious.

After the car entered the village, its speed began to slow down. Every villager passing by the car couldn't help but turn around and start discussing with their companions.

Although Nanfang Rihe has been staying there for some time, the existence of the other party is still a hot topic for the villagers living in the closed village.

Before starting the formal investigation, Minami Hizuru took them to the only hospital in the outfield village, Ozaki Hospital.

Nanfang Rizhe led four people into the hospital and soon saw a pretty female nurse.

Nanfang Rihe seemed to know the other party. After seeing the other party, he asked:

"Ritsuko, are Dr. Ozaki and Director Muroi here?"

"They're all in the backyard now."

While Ritsuko Kunhiro was answering the question, she looked curiously at Fujimaru Ritsuka and his group behind her.

"Miss Hizuru, who are they?"

"they are my friends."

Nanfang Rizhe just explained briefly and continued to lead them away, leaving only the nurse standing there looking at everyone curiously.

Ozaki Hospital is the private hospital of the Ozaki family, and the courtyard inside the hospital is a private area that is generally not open to the public.

On a large piece of lawn, there stood a wooden pavilion. In the pavilion, two men were sitting opposite each other, seeming to be talking about something.

One of them has short to medium brown hair, and his relatively young face is covered with stubble, giving people a sense of vicissitudes of life. The white coat he is wearing silently reveals the other person's identity.

He is the only doctor in the only hospital in the outfield village, Ozaki Toshio. The young man sitting opposite him has gray middle hair, dark monk clothes, and glasses, giving him a gentle and elegant look.

He is the deputy abbot of Bodhi Temple, the only temple in Waichang Village, Shizunobu Muroi.

Since the host, Shizunobu Muroi's father, is old and bedridden, he now presides over many ceremonies in the outfield village, including funerals.

At the same time, he is also a writer, and the article describing Waichang Village that Haihara Ai found on the Internet was written by him.

Although they are still relatively young, only in their early thirties, they are already two of the most prestigious people in Waichang Village, and they are also the main personnel investigating deaths in the village.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and others recalled the information provided by Southern Hizuru in advance. At this time, the two people in the pavilion also noticed the appearance of everyone.

"Miss Hizuru, you are back."

Shizunobu Muroi first said hello to Minami Hizuru, then looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and his group behind her, and asked with some hesitation:

".Are they the friends who came to help?"

Yesterday Nanfang Rizhe told them that she contacted experts who could handle mysterious incidents to help, so today he and Toshio gathered here to wait for each other's arrival.

But with the combination of an old man, two girls, and a child in front of him, it was really difficult for him to connect the four of them with 'experts who can handle mysterious events'.

In fact, Fujimaru Ritsuka also knew that their appearance might not be very convincing, so in order to highlight her professionalism, she specially changed into her own suit before the trip, making her appear dashing and capable.

But unfortunately, this level of change was unable to impress Muroi Shizunobu and Ozaki Toshio.

Although he was full of doubts, Muroi Shizunobu still showed restraint and did not show too many negative emotions.

But unlike Shizunobu Muroi on the other side, the moment Toshio Ozaki saw Fujimaru Ritsuka and others, his eyebrows were already furrowed into an inverted figure, and visible irritation immediately covered his face.

However, the little rationality left in his mind prevented the other party from immediately venting his dissatisfaction.

Ozaki Toshio tried hard to control the irritability in his heart, looked at Minami Hizuru with sharp eyes and asked:

"Are you sure they can really help?"

It is conceivable that if Fujimaru Ritsuka is just a facade, no, even a fake without even a 'facade', then what he needs to face next is a fierce rebuke from the other party.

Fortunately, they can be sure that such a future will never happen.

Southern Hizuru looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said:

"I'm sorry, but can you please prove it a little bit?"

"of course can."

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't feel any embarrassment and nodded readily.

The reason why she wanted to change her image was because she expected this situation to happen.

After thinking for a moment, she suddenly noticed the thick dark circles under Ozaki Toshio's eyes.

Perhaps troubled by the unusual events in the village, the other party probably didn't sleep well during this period. He often suffered from insomnia and looked very tired.

That's why you're so irritable, right?

When she thought of this, she immediately had an idea.

"Well, I'm sorry."

Saying this, she mobilized the magic power in her body, and at the same time raised her finger to Ozaki Toshio, and activated the magic in the face of the other person's confused expression——

Restoration magic, the Rain of Isis!

The Rain of Isis is one of the magic tricks she is good at, which can remove the negative effects that enemies inflict on her followers.

Of course, it is also quite effective in eliminating fatigue.

So the next moment the magic was activated, Ozaki Toshio suddenly felt that his body became light and airy, as if the garbage accumulated in the body in the past was suddenly emptied, and his whole person became energetic.

Feeling the clear changes in his body, he said in disbelief:

"This is.!?"
