I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

"Otherwise!? You are too straight. You won't be able to find a girlfriend in the future!"

"..."

The corner of Fushiguro's mouth twitched twice, indicating that he had no intention of finding a girlfriend, and then walked towards the vending machine.

When Yoshino came back from buying the tickets, Kugisaki was already holding popcorn and drinks and handed one of them to Yoshino.

"No, take it, we're about to enter."

"Um."

...

"Is this a horror theme?"

"Uh, it should be." Huzhang held the ticket and could guess at least eighty-nine times just by looking at the movie title.

"As promised beforehand, I'm not afraid of horror movies. You'd better give up on hearing me scream." Kugisaki waved his hands in vain.

Fushiguro responded: "Yes, we are all [spell masters] after all."

Even real curses need to be exorcised by their own hands. People who have seen those cursed spirits with their own eyes are just a fictional story, so how can it scare them?

Yoshino also showed a wry smile at this, of course he realized this.

So the four people carrying large and small bags checked in and entered the venue laughing and talking...

Chapter 120: Dream Parade of Fear (1)

After watching the movie, Kugisaki did not scream.

But Knotweed expressed strong dissatisfaction with his bruised arm.

"If you can't help it, just scream! Can you please stop hurting me?"

"...It's so noisy!"

"So are there really magicians who are afraid of horror movies?" Fushiguro took a sip of the unfinished drink and seemed to feel much better.

"It's obviously fake."

He even borrowed what Kugisaki said before.

"I'm not afraid! I'm just concerned about the plot. This is called empathy!" Kugisaki emphasized word by word.

Yoshino smiled happily.

Because he knew that the plot of this new movie was lame and did not meet the standards he expected.

But... it is still one of his most satisfying movies, bar none.

"Thank you for being willing to watch a movie with me."

"Huh? I didn't come to watch a movie with you specially. I just took a rest after I was tired from shopping." Kugisaki corrected the smiling Yoshino.

"Yes, yes~" Knotweed looked like he really couldn't do anything to you, and rubbed the bruises on his arm again.

"So I'm the only one injured this time, right?"

Compared to the Eighty-Eight Bridge last time?

Kizuki smiled, and both Kugisaki and Fushiguro understood the meaning of this sentence.

"Stop talking nonsense, guys, our journey is not over yet!" Kugisaki raised his arms and shouted, obviously full of fighting spirit, and it was inevitable to spend all the money in his pocket.

After all, I love shopping in the city! Just buy enough at once!

"...I want to go back." Fushiguro muttered weakly.

"Beep~Objection is invalid."

"Hahaha..!"

————————————————————————

Relaxation days are always short.

Less than three days have passed since last weekend, and everyone has received the mission.

Four first-grade students were in class in the classroom. Supervisor Ichichi suddenly knocked on the door and called Isabella away.

Just as a few people were discussing whether a mission was coming, it was obvious that Mr. Ichichi did not disappoint the three of them.

Wow...

The classroom door was opened again, Isabella poked her head in and waved to the three tiger sticks.

"Japanese knotweed, Kugizaki, Fushiguro—urgent mission!"

"Teacher...what about Junpei?" Although Kizuna stood up subconsciously, he still looked back at Yoshino who was sitting in his seat and smiling.

"Unfortunately, this is a Level 1 mission. You have to go with me. As for Junpei-san..."

"It's okay with me!"

Yoshino sat on his seat and pointed at the book in his hand: "I'll just study by myself. On the other hand...you guys have to come back safely."

"Oh, I will!"

The three of them walked side by side towards Isabella,

Then Kugisaki turned back and pointed at Yoshino and said, "But you have to catch up quickly, because we won't stop."

Yoshino nodded and said loudly: "Yes!"

"Then let's go."

...

[October 3, 2018, 10:10 am. An accident occurred at EEJANAIKA, Fuji-Q Highland's "Absolute Scream" series roller coaster. Safety measures for all passengers failed during operation, resulting in a major accident that killed 5 people and injured 3 people. 】

Ichichi pushed up his glasses and held up the information board: "The staff urgently stopped playing on the project and conducted a thorough overhaul, but surprisingly found that the safety measures did not age and other problems. The cause of the failure is unknown."

"But even so, after replacing the entire set of safety valves and fixtures, problems still occurred during the closed-park test."

Isabella picked up the photos of the accident scene and showed an unbearable look.

"Everything is normal when there is no one on board, but once it is occupied, the seat belt will still pop up after reaching the highest point during the project operation, and human intervention cannot return it to its position."

"And during the maintenance and testing, a staff member was seriously injured again. He is still receiving treatment in the hospital and has not recovered."

[Window] The report may be related to a curse, but there is no witness information on what kind of curse it is.

"The most important thing is that there is no [residue] confirmation on the scene."

Fushiguro flipped through the historical record files and frowned slightly.

"This facility seems to have had problems before?"

"Yes."

"On August 4, 2006, shortly after it started operating, the project was called to an emergency halt due to abnormal brake noise. After several days of maintenance, it resumed operation on August 9 of the same year. By November 9, 2007 , the number of passengers exceeded 1 million. On December 13, 2007, there was an accident in which the vehicle suddenly started during maintenance, causing a working person to be trapped and fracture his sternum."

Hu Zhi was surprised, "Eleven years ago?!"

"After all, Fuji-Q is also a long-established amusement park."

"Yes, I've been there with my friends before...but I didn't sit there. After all, it looked very...well, scary." Kugisaki scratched his cheek in fear.

Eijanaika is not an ordinary suspended roller coaster.

First of all, its car is not under the track, but hangs on both sides of the track. This makes the people sitting inside completely unable to see other reference objects, and they always feel like they have been thrown out when being tossed around in the sky.

Secondly, the seat will rotate and roll in all directions. Such rolling will make you completely lose your sense of direction along with the violently twisted track. When being pulled to the highest point and about to descend rapidly along a 90-degree vertical track, this rotation function will give people a sense of despair that they are about to be thrown to the ground to death...

"It simply doesn't look like an entertainment facility for people to play... but for 'playing with people'."

That kind of operation undoubtedly requires very reliable safety measures. Once the safety measures fail, the tourists on the seats will definitely experience the most terrifying feeling of despair.

It was thrown down in the air by the irresistible centrifugal force, and then fell hard to the ground, turning into a "meat pie".

And this is also true——

Isabella placed the photo of the deceased taken by the police station on the table, causing both Huzhuang and Kugisaki to gasp.

"Although this project has been completely stopped now, the number of tourists has been affected one after another due to this news. Basically no one dares to ride on all roller coaster projects."

"Besides the roller coaster, are there any problems with other projects?" Fushiguro asked.

"There are no reports at this time."

"...Then we can only go on an on-site inspection."

Ichichi organized the files, "The car is ready, we will set off immediately."

Fuji-Q Highland is an amusement park located in Shinnishihara 5-chome, Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture and Fujikawaguchiko Town. It is still some distance from downtown Tokyo.

"Could it be a roller coaster curse... This is the first time I've heard of this type..."

In the car, Kugisaki read the introduction about Fuji-Q Highland, but this time he didn’t feel at all relaxed and happy when watching it.

It's obviously an amusement park that makes people happy, but it's about curses and death.

Hu Guang pinched his chin and said, "It's strange that curses can appear in such entertainment places, right? How can a curse born from human negative emotions appear in an amusement park full of laughter?"

"Theoretically speaking, the probability of this happening is indeed relatively small, but once it happens, I'm afraid it won't be a small trouble." Isabella sat in the co-pilot and looked back: "Those thrilling rides are essentially built with What humans have achieved in certain aspects of [fear] is just to add enough safety measures to allow people to experience fear they have never been exposed to in a safe way.”

"For example, jumping machines, bungee jumping, haunted houses, etc.? Speaking of which, the plot of the horror movie I went to watch last time was actually really bad... Anyone can see through your excuses at once, Kugisaki." Kizuki pointed at Kugisaki. .

"...Stop blabbering, at least I didn't scream, so I've saved my face, right?" Kugisaki crossed his arms dissatisfied, "Still

Say you want to come this time too? "

"Fuji-Q Highland also has the world's most terrifying haunted house." Fushiguro added.

"Want to try it?"

Kugisaki raised his eyebrows, "Hey... we are not going to the amusement park this time to have fun! Please be more serious...!"

"Oh...actually I'm just timid~" Knotweed turned his face away and muttered softly.

"I heard what you said, I'm going to beat you up...!"

Chapter 121: Dream Parade of Fear (2)

Later, everyone arrived at their destination.

The only thing you can see immediately after entering the amusement park is the huge roller coaster track.

"It's so high..." Hu Zhi raised his neck and looked at the towering and coiled steel jungle. The highest point of the dive track even reached an inclination angle of 120 degrees, which made him feel a little excited.

Looks like fun!

Even though today is not a holiday, Fuji-Q Highland has a lot of visitors, because most of them are foreign tourists who come here for its reputation.

There are crowds of people in front of various vendors and small gift shops, and there are long queues in front of almost all popular rides.

"There are still people riding this roller coaster. There are quite a lot of people!" Hu Zhi raised his hand and pointed to the ascending carriage carrying tourists. The queue in the fence for queuing had already turned a corner.

"Fuji-kyu has more than one roller coaster. Even if the roller coaster is temporarily suspended, there are several others."

Kugisaki explained this, "The one you are looking at now is TAKABISHIA (High Speed ​​Car), which is the latest one. If it had been before, the people queuing up should have already been there."

She pointed toward the line extending back from the entrance to the fence.

"There are already a lot less people...well, although there will always be people who give up on queuing in the end."

"Give up? Why."

"Because just hearing the screams getting closer and closer makes me afraid to sit on it. The closer the line is, the more shocking the roller coaster track and the rumble when it is running."

"I see..." Hu Zede pinched his chin, "Kugizaki, you really understand."

"Of course." Kugisaki puffed up his chest proudly, "After all, I have done a lot of homework."

Knotweed then remembered the Kyoto travel guide in Kugisaki's hand at the exchange meeting. The densely packed labels on it made people's scalp numb.

He really is the type who plans and understands everything just for fun... I should say he is worthy of Kugisaki.

Fushiguro just looked around.

"There are too many crowds and it is messy. Even if there is any residue left here, it will be quickly diluted to nothing. Various thrilling rides will try their best to arouse the emotions of tourists... The investigation may It’s a bit difficult to handle.”

Kugizaki and Kuzuki sighed at the same time, patting Fushiguro's shoulder.
