I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo - Chapter 1039

“President Shiben, the mission target, is it right by the lake?”

Takeshi Iwata, who was fully armed, respectfully waited behind Tokimoto Ichiro and asked in a low voice.

A group of detectives, armed with live ammunition and grim expressions, consciously distanced themselves and patrolled along the shore of the lake.

Tokimoto Ichiro’s “resurrection of a dead body”, like the “real identity of the Ghost Rider”, belongs to the top secret of the association, and only Iwata Takeshi knows it in the ninth lesson.

This time, because it was related to Mochizuki Ayano’s safety, he directly omitted the reporting process, arranged a helicopter in person, and organized an elite team to hunt down the suspected “stealing the Taketori picture scroll, massacre of the Supernatural Research Institute, kidnapping Mochizuki Ayano, and murdering Mochizuki Koji”. Murderer on multiple counts.

“Don’t be impatient, the old man’s ‘searching mantra’ on the bamboo scroll is very secretive. It takes a lot of work for the “Yin-Yang Four-Signs Celestial Astrolabe” to guide you in a more precise direction…”

Facing the lake, Tokimoto Ichiro waved his hand and stared intently at the frantically spinning pointer on the compass in his hand.

“However, looking at this reaction, we should be very close to the Taketori picture scroll.”

On the night of the long conversation with Araki Sosuke, Ichiro Tokimoto, who predicted that his death was approaching, cast Maoshan’s secret “searching mantra” on the Taketori picture scroll just in case.

It is precisely because of the backhand he left behind that everyone followed the guide to find this place.

“Okay, it’s all right, please!”

Just as Takeshi Iwata bowed and saluted, a few cold raindrops suddenly fell into the back of his neck, sending chills down his spine.

“It’s raining?”

It seems that this group of “uninvited guests” is not very welcome. A sudden shower quietly enveloped Jingjin Lake, which was originally a clear sky.

…

“Crash la la la…”

The big raindrops hit the branches and leaves in the forest like bullets, making a crisp sound.

“This rain is because of the formation here, has it reacted to the Taketori Picture Scroll?”

Mochizuki Koji, wearing a black robe and carrying a huge wooden box, was standing quietly in the rain, facing a stone tablet lingering in white light.

“Hmph, Emperor Wenwu is an idiot.”

The picture scroll hanging under the wooden box shone with a faint white light like breathing, as if echoing the stone tablet.

“Vaguely thunderous, cloudy sky, but I hope the wind and rain will come and leave you here.”

As the tentacles eroded away the moss and weeds on the stele, the broken stele surface vaguely revealed a line of big characters with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.

“Only after collecting the Mochizuki Secret Treasure, can this monument be found under the guidance of the Taketori Picture Scroll…”

The torrential rain accumulated, and water gradually flowed along the ravines on the ground, converging from all directions into a slightly concave terrain in front of the stone tablet.

“Boom boom boom…”

In the low sound of collision, the ground shook slightly, and it seemed that something started to move.

“It turns out that we can only wait for this ‘rain prayer array’ to provide enough water to activate the mechanism under the stone tablet…”

The water gradually filled up, and a small lake with a diameter of about 50 meters, far deeper than the topography, appeared in front of Mochizuki Koji.

“I can only see it, the sixth lake in the legendary ‘Fuji Five Lakes’, Chihu.”

Under the reflection of the red rocks at the bottom, the originally clear rainwater turned red, as if the whole small lake was filled with blood.

Dense thick and long tentacles wriggled out from under his robe, tightly wrapping the wooden box and picture scrolls on his back.

“The Chihu Lake has already appeared, and the passage at the bottom of the lake must have also opened?”

Then, he walked step by step towards the small lake in front of him until he disappeared under the water.

“The reunion of father and daughter is finally right in front of me… My lovely, little bamboo.”

…

Five minutes later, Jingjin Lake.

“Go east!”

In the pouring rain, the magnetic needle on the compass in Tokimoto Ichiro’s hand finally confirmed the direction.

“sail!”

The agents who had already requisitioned the sightseeing boat by the lake quickly pulled the engine.

Several white sightseeing boats in the appearance of swans carried everyone, breaking through the rain curtain and the lake surface, bringing out “cracks” on the gem-like lake.

Following the direction directed by Tokimoto Ichiro, the sightseeing boats that were advancing in parallel quickly crossed the surface of the lake with an area of ​​only one square kilometer and approached the shore on the opposite side.

“The compass’s response has become stronger… this way!”

Without waiting for the boat to dock, Ichiro Tokimoto jumped onto the bank and burrowed into the forest beside him.

“Wait for me!”

Sousuke Araki, who was on the other boat, followed closely behind, jumping over nearly ten meters of water, and slumped into the forest like a cheetah.

“This… hurry up, leave a few people to watch the boat, and the others follow!”

“Yes!”

The detectives on board were only slightly taken aback by the “supernatural” physical abilities of the two of them, then lowered their heads and continued their work calmly.

It took less than a few minutes to run through the forest in the rain, and suddenly there was the sound of clear water flowing into Sosuke Araki’s ears.

“Red lake?”

Breaking through the bushes and weeds, a small red lake appeared in front of him.

“This stone tablet looks a few years old.”

Tokimoto Ichiro, who was one step ahead, was standing beside the stone monument by the lake. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

“This trace is the guy who appeared in the research institute… Moreover, he was still here not long ago!”

Araki Sosuke lifted the blindfold, and on the stone tablet, several handprints with rising black energy appeared.

“There are also… it looks like a group of snakes crawling through… What is it that took Mochizuki away?”

He leaned down and scraped off the weeds on the ground, only to see several traces of grievances and crooked mud marks extending all the way into the scarlet lake in front of him.

“Target, went under the water…”

Coming to the lake, Sousuke Araki began to take off his clothes without hesitation: “This lake doesn’t look deep, watch me go down and catch him out!”

“Mr. Shiben…”

At the same time, Iwata Takeshi and a group of detectives rushed here out of breath.

“Araki-kun, you?!”

Looking at the red lake in the forest in front of him, and the Araki Sousuke who entered the “burst mode” by the lake, and the underwear and vest were flying all over the sky, everyone was slightly taken aback.

“Don’t worry, Araki-kun! The position of the Zhutori picture scroll is constantly moving away from us, that guy should not be under this lake…”

Not far away, Ichiro Tokimoto, who was holding a compass, frowned and looked at Sousuke Araki: “Cough, even if you want to go into the water, you don’t need to take off your underwear, right?”

“Huh? These footprints and handprints are definitely fresh, and that guy has been down for no more than ten minutes at most!”

Sousuke Araki, who was naked and posing for diving, immediately froze in place: “Could it be that this little broken pond can lead to other places?”

“I just contacted the nearby police station…”

Ignoring Sousuke Araki, who had a hot eye, Takeshi Iwata looked at the red lake in front of him in distress: “On the east side of Lake Jingjin, there has been a stagnant lake that only appears on rainy days since ancient times. ‘, it should be here.”
