But her identity is still different from Shimizu Takaichi. As the owner of this apartment, even if some tenants are really impatient with her, they can't do anything due to the apartment's protection mechanism, but the latter is different.

Just as Shiraishi Rin walked back through the corridor, the door of Room 103 suddenly opened.

Sachiko poked her head out and looked up the corridor curiously: "Sister Rin, what happened?"

"It's Sachiko...it's nothing, how is your mother now?"

Rin Shiraishi stopped, and glanced into the living room through the anti-theft door that Sachiko opened, and vaguely heard the sound of gurgling water coming from the direction of the kitchen, probably Yoshie Ogino was cooking.But at this moment, the faucet in the direction of the kitchen was suddenly turned off, and then Yoshie Ogino came outside wearing slippers and greeted her.

Compared with when she just woke up, Ogino Yoshie looked much better now.

The cat demon's physical recovery ability is still amazing.

The delay in waking up before was mainly due to the serious injury, but after being helped by Shiraishi Rin through the most dangerous moment, Ogino Yoshie's characteristics as a cat demon gradually emerged.Shiraishi Rin didn't ask any more questions, and after a few polite words, she waved to Sachiko, then turned and went back to Room 101.

When the door opened, the black and white kittens in the living room opened their throats and meowed a few times, and the little black cat tried to crawl out of the cat's nest.

Shiraishi walked a few steps quickly, took the black cat in his hand and sent it back to the cat climbing frame, then grabbed the cat teasing stick next to it, moved it for a while at the three kittens, and rubbed the one that was currently eating the most. The fat little orange cat stood up with its soft yellow and white belly, stretched, and when he glanced back, he noticed the figure of Huali Asakura appearing in the living room.

"You're here?"

Shiraishi Rin smiled and greeted casually.

Asakura Huali has not appeared for several days.

The main reason is that Ogino's mother and daughter lived here two days ago, and it was inconvenient for Asakura Hanagi to show up as a wraith.But now, Hana Asakura appeared in the living room again, and when she looked at Rin Shiraishi, she felt hesitant to speak.

"Are you trying to say...about finding your father?"

Rin Shiraishi took away the catnip in his hand, put the three kittens back on the cat climbing frame one by one, observed Huali Asakura's face, and vaguely guessed her purpose: "Then let's talk about it." .”

ps: Happy New Year's Eve!

Volume 156: Chapter [-] Asakura Satoru

With the end of the campus festival, Hana Asakura's three obsessions, "playing the violin repertoire in public" has been completed.

Then the next step should be "saying goodbye to father".

As for the third item "catch the fish that slipped through the net", it involved the depths of Asakura Huali's obsession. If there is no suitable opportunity, Asakura Huali probably would not take the initiative to say it.And even if she really said it... Shiraishi Rin is actually not easy to do anything, because the "fish that slipped through the net" must be human, and there is a high probability that she is a young lady from a prominent family, and it is impossible to kill him directly like Kumamoto.It is also not realistic to impose legal sanctions on the other party through the police.

——If this can be achieved, there should be some splashes when Hana Asakura jumped off the building six years ago.But the facts are nothing, which is very telling.

Therefore, I can only complete the second obsession first, and then find a way to gradually figure it out.

According to Shiraishi Rin's original plan, in fact, as soon as the campus festival is over, she should start helping Asakura Hana to find her father, but because of Kumamoto's incident, and the Ogino mother and daughter involved in the latter The matter with Inugami, that's why it has been delayed and failed to be implemented.

But now, this pair of things has basically come to an end, of course she can spare time to help Huali Asakura complete her obsession.

"I……"

Facing Rin Shiraishi's question, Hana Asakura hesitated for a while, seeming to hesitate to speak.

But finally, under the gaze of Shiraishi Rin, he slowly said: "My father...he is a salesman of a retail company...Our family used to live in Wenjing District..."

"before?"

In fact, Rin Shiraishi probably also knows where the address of Asakura's house is - the owner of the musical instrument store she met when she went to buy a violin last time knew Hanakura Asakura in middle school, and heard her play in the park violin.Since he can practice piano in that park, it means that the place where he lives must be nearby, at most one or two stops away.But the problem is...

Hana Asakura has been dead for six years.

In the past six years, it is difficult to say whether Asakura's father has moved away.

After all, the Asakura family was originally a divorced family, and Asakura Hana and that father depended on each other for life. Now that the daughter is dead, the remaining father must either use alcohol to get rid of his depression, or recover after a period of depression Get up and start another family business.If it is the latter, it is estimated that they no longer live in the original place.

"This...I don't know either..."

Asakura Hana slowly shook her head.

She had been staying in Xiaobailou for the past six years. After the Xiaobailou incident, she had been stored on [Blood Clothes] and was brought back by Shiraishi Rin. She had never been to other places, so naturally it was impossible to know The current situation of the Asakura family.Although Hana Asakura had borrowed Rin Shiraishi's laptop to surf the Internet, but only learned about the current situation of the world six years ago, it was not and impossible to search for the current situation of such an unknown person as Asakura's father.

Shiraishi Rin did not hesitate, and after deliberating his thoughts, he promised:

"Okay, anyway, let's take the time to verify the address you said, it shouldn't take too long. If you can't find anyone there, just find another way."

"Thank you so much."

Hanakura Asakura bowed slightly and bowed to her.

"It's okay, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Moreover, the two of them can be regarded as partners who have fought side by side, and they also have the important relationship of classmates-although there are a lot of classes separated, so it is also appropriate to try to help as much as possible.

Rin Shiraishi smiled, casually comforted Hanakura Asakura, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then went to bed.

Blink of an eye to the next day.

After school that afternoon, Shiraishi Rin greeted Nogi Maki, asked the latter to ask for leave for herself, skipped the routine training of the Kendo Club, and then took a bus to the west side of Bunkyo District, ready to cash in The promise I made in front of Asakura Huali.

According to the phone map and Asakura Huali's instructions, Shiraishi Rin took some time and walked around a block for a while before finding the address that Asakura Huali had reported to her on a slightly remote street. .

"Is that there?"

Shiraishi Rin finally confirmed with Asakura Huali.

It was a very simple one-family building.

The main body of the house is made of wood, and it can be seen that it has been used for some years. The walls are already rough, but the doors and windows seem to have been renovated. There are a few broad-leaved trees in the yard, and you can still see green in this late autumn season. It's kind of a breath of fresh air.Arriving here, Qiancanghuali actually showed a bit of fear, a bit similar to the so-called "closer to the hometown is more timid" in Huaxia.

Bai Shilin didn't have much to say, so he could only come to the door instead of her, and began to knock on the door: "Hello, is there anyone at home?"

soon.

A middle-aged aunt appeared at the door and looked outside: "Who are you?"

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Asakura's house?"

Rin Shiraishi visually estimated the age of the middle-aged aunt, then glanced at Hanakura Asakura, guessing the relationship between the two.

Could it be... is Asakura Huali's stepmother?

Like Shiraishi Rin, Asakura Huali was a little unresponsive, and looked at the middle-aged aunt standing at the door with a puzzled face, as if suspecting that she was his stepmother.

However, all the guesses about one person and one ghost were immediately dispelled by the middle-aged aunt's next reply: "Mr. Asakura? Who is that?"

"Ok?"

Bai Shilin opened his mouth and organized his words in his mind, but when he was about to explain, he saw the middle-aged aunt suddenly realized something, as if she suddenly remembered something, and said: "Oh, you That Asakura-san you mentioned, could it be Asakura Satoru?"

Shiraishi Rin's complexion changed slightly when he heard this name.

This was indeed the man she was looking for.

but……

"That gentleman was the previous resident here, but he moved away two years ago. My husband and I bought this house from him and have been living here since then... little girl, what are you People, are they friends or relatives of Mr. Satoru Asakura?"

The middle-aged aunt explained a few words, and looked at it a little strangely.

"Ah... yes, I'm his distant niece. I live in the countryside of Chiba County. I haven't contacted Uncle Wu for a long time. I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen..."

Shiraishi lied without changing his face, and then asked: "Then do you know where Mr. Asakura moved to?"

Volume 157: Chapter 8 Misato's Doubts (Reward 12/[-] added)

"I'm not sure, maybe it's going to Setagaya or Meguro in the southwest?"

The middle-aged aunt didn't answer right away this time, but tilted her head and thought for a while, and the tone of her final words was still a little uncertain.

This answer is for reference only.

After all, Asakura Satoru had left two years ago, and the new house owner didn't even remember his name very well, it was only after thinking about it for a while that he remembered, and I'm afraid it was even more impossible to remember where he went .Moreover, this kind of thing involves personal privacy. According to common sense, Asakura Satoru will definitely not deliberately mention his whereabouts to the person who bought his house, at most he just incidentally...

(Looks like in the end I still have to ask Misato Shimoshima to help with the investigation...)

Shiraishi glanced at the slightly gloomy Asakura Huali, thanked the middle-aged aunt, and after a few more polite words, turned and left.

It wasn't until he was about to see the station that Shiraishi Rin opened his mouth and promised softly:

"Okay, don't worry about Senior Huali, I will help you find your father."

If it is said that she initially wanted to help Asakura Hanagi complete her obsession purely for gaining favorability, then after a period of contact and witnessing her pre-death memories with her own eyes, Shiraishi Rin's thoughts changed a little up.She really wanted to help this wraith, who was six years older than herself, resolve her regrets, even if it took a little more effort, it was worth it.

In terms of the age and grade gap between the two, Asakura Huali can indeed be called "senior sister".

"Well, thank you."

Qian Canghuali was obviously taken aback by Shiraishi Rin's address, and then smiled lightly, turning into a cloud of yin energy and attached to Shiraishi Rin's body, and fell silent.

Rin Shiraishi took the tram home.

Nothing strange happened along the way.

After returning to the entrance of Shiraishi's apartment along the small road at Minamisenju 201-chome, Shiraishi Rin deliberately raised his head to glance at [-], and confirmed from the closed curtain that Shimoshima Misato had not returned——

After living together under the same roof for so long, Shiraishi Rin has a little understanding of the habits of these tenants.For example, if the policewoman is at home, she usually opens the curtains and windows during the day to let in air, and closes them after dark at night.

For another example, Mimiko Mizunuma, another tenant on the second floor, never turns on the lights at night, and doesn't know what to do at home every day...

That night, Shiraishi Rin made himself a meal to fill his stomach, and then carried a few bags of fruit, delivered them door to door, and started his daily routine of gaining favorability.

When she was sent to 201, she chatted with Shimoshima Misato and mentioned "I want to know about Asakura Hana's family".The reason is lies such as "the friendship of the same school students" and "knowing about her musical talent in the light music department", no matter whether it is true or not, it sounds more or less based.

The current Shiraishi Rin is already familiar with these lies, and can basically keep his face unchanged.

Although the female policeman was a little surprised that she suddenly brought up this topic, she still agreed wholeheartedly.

"By the way, Xiao Lin..."

Shimoshima Misato glanced at both sides of the corridor, and lowered her voice: "Although it's a bit presumptuous, but... is Miss Mimiko in Room 204 a manga artist? I visited her a few days ago, and since In the corridor, I saw many easels in her living room..."

coming.

Shiraishin's heart skipped a beat.

She had known for a long time that Shimoshima Misato would definitely be curious about this matter.After all, one of the main purposes of this female policeman coming to Shiraishi Apartment is to explore the supernatural events in the section of Minami Senju, and the previous incidents—that is, the Matsumoto Yoshiyasu incident, the Nakamura incident, etc. There is no discord Baishi Apartment has something to do with it, and most of the tenants in this apartment building are not human. After a while, problems will definitely be discovered.

However, Shimoshima Misato was the first to notice something was wrong, not the Ogino mother and daughter, but Mizunuma Mimiko?

But it is.

Rin Shiraishi lives closest to the Ogino mother and daughter, so she is more familiar with the latter, but the closest neighbor to Misato Shimoshima is Mimiko Mizunuma.With the professional level of this policewoman, it is not difficult to discover various mysteries in the latter.Even when Rin Shiraishi expressed his doubts, Shimoshima Misato may have been observing for quite a while.
