Chapter 135 The Akabane River in Edo
Standing in front of the gate of yesterday's "Zhoushan" house, Ling also pushed it with her hand and found that the gate was locked. It was locked by the tac team.
In fact, this is certainly not a Zhoushan house, it has been abandoned for decades.
"According to records, this villa was built by an expatriate who returned from England during the Taisho period. However, it was later abandoned due to the war." Standing next to Lingya was Beidou.
Compared to Nan Xizi, Beidou's body is stronger and he has recovered a lot during the day.
He also pushed the iron door, which made a jingling sound because the iron chain was locked. The iron door was locked by Team TAC, but the key was not with him.
"You guys were too messy yesterday," Ling Ye said.
He knew that there was something wrong with the water controlled by the super beast, which would make people lose their strength, but he sucked it directly into the body. This fighting method is too reckless.
"Yes, yes." Beidou accepted the criticism humbly, but he probably won't change it.
If there was only Ace, of course he would be more cautious. But since Gaia is here, he has no worries in the battle. He believes that as long as he can restrain the super beast Gaia, he can defeat the opponent.
In the end, it was proved that Gaia had lived up to this trust.
"Is there really anything worth investigating here? Last night and today during the whole day, the investigators of the TAC team have turned this place upside down."
Although Beidou did not participate in the investigation, he believed in the professionalism of the investigators of the TAC team.
"Hmm." In fact, Ling also didn't know if she could really find anything. But she still had some doubts in her heart. "Speaking of which, although Kita Ward is not the central area of Tokyo, the land price should not be cheap, right?"<
/p>
Hearing Ling say the same thing, Beidou was a little surprised. He thought that the other party was a young lady who was inexperienced in the world, and she actually knew about land prices.
"Our Da Dao Group originally invested in the financial industry and real estate." Ling also explained.
"Well, it's really not cheap." The job in the TAC team is already considered high-paying, and the various front-line combat subsidies are enough to envy many entrepreneurs. But even in Beidou, it will take many years of savings to buy a property here.
"But, since the land price here is so expensive, why has this area of houses been abandoned for so many years and has not been redeveloped?"
"Ah, regarding this, of course there are plans to redevelop this place. In fact, in the past few decades, many real estate developers and investors have taken a fancy to this place. It has changed hands several times. Some want to redevelop villas.
, there were other development plans, but all failed without exception."
Having said this, Beidou paused for a moment. The TAC team had investigated this matter during the day, and he had also read the information. He remembered that the investors should also include the Oshima Consortium, but they later changed hands.
Of course, Lingye probably doesn't know. Such a small project worth tens of millions, but less than 100 million, may be something that can be decided by a middle-level person in the consortium. Lingye's father may not even know.
Ling really didn't know, otherwise she would have asked Miyano to check the company's investment information before coming here.
"In the past, construction teams would have various accidents every time during the construction process. There were constant injuries and accidents. There were even legends of "hidden gods". Some people had disappeared, and the police believed in the files that they were involved in project funds.
He ran away, but there was no follow-up. The case was shelved for many years, and the person was never found."
In the past era, even the household registration system was not perfect, and the chance of finding a missing person was slim, so similar cases would eventually go unsolved. Even today, decades later, it is still difficult to find people nationwide.
It is still an extremely difficult thing. I heard that the West has a fingerprint database, which can provide a basis for solving crimes and demographics.
But it is just an idea, and it will not be possible in at least the past ten or twenty years. Collecting the fingerprints of hundreds of millions of people is simply a fantasy, and the archives can be filled up.
Several houses.
Therefore, it is indeed helpless for similar cases to be hastily thrown into the archives to gather dust.
"Shenyin~~" Ling also pondered the word.
She stepped lightly on the bronze door fence, and without any other movement, she rolled in, as easily as if she had stepped up a step.
Beidou looked a little jealous. Such "special powers" were obviously given to her by Gaia in the human body, and Ace did not give him such treatment. His current body, before the transformation, was still an ordinary human being, without any
The special features.
After looking around and seeing no one paying attention, Beidou Seiji used a run-up to step on the wall and support the wall. There were anti-theft metal spikes on the top of the bronze door. Without Reiya's "special powers", he wouldn't try it.
, it is better to climb over the wall next to it. Although it is more than three meters high, it is nothing to the well-trained tac team members.
He just acted like a thief, but fortunately no one was around to see it, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing for the Tangtang TAC team member to do such a thing. If he had known it, he would have asked the person in charge of the investigation department and brought the key out.
Anyway, as a front-line member of the TAC combat department, he is interested in cases involving secrets, so those investigators must not have any objections. After all, they have stopped the search work and have shelved the case.
After climbing over the wall and stepping onto the ground, the scenery of the villa garden was completely different from the last time Beidou saw it.
A ruin.
Those flowers, plants and trees were piled up in a haphazard manner, and some of the weeds were already waist-deep. It had long been a wasteland, and it didn't look like it had been repaired yesterday. It had obviously been abandoned for a long time.
"How could this happen? When Yamanaka and I came here yesterday, what we saw was obviously not the same."
"Maybe this is not what we saw yesterday?"
"Not here?" Beidou didn't quite understand what Lingya meant. It was clearly here yesterday, how could he find it wrong? There was no second similar villa around here.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Well, it might be a space mirror. Based on this space, the Yabo people created a different space to overlap with it."
What Beidou saw yesterday, including what Reiya later went to do night exploration and fight with the Super Beast, were all in the space rebuilt by the Yabo people. The biggest evidence is that there is no Gaia and Super Beast in this garden yesterday.
The traces left by the battle.
"Can something like this be done?" Beidou asked in surprise. Even Ace had never heard of such technology.
"It can be done." If it were a day ago, Ling would not have been able to answer with such certainty, but since unsealing the "Medal of Nexus", she has a deeper understanding of space.
If anything, Ling can do such a thing by herself now.
The Metafield itself is a technology that covers the original space to build another space. Moreover, the Metafield is much more advanced than the technology of the Biabo people, and the two are not on the same level at all.
To use the metaphor of civilization and technology on the earth, the Yabo people learned to drill wood to make fire from unknown inspiration, and the Meita field has mastered nuclear energy.
It is impossible to imagine what kind of invincible god of war Nexus is who has mastered such skills. Whether he faces monsters or super beasts, he must be able to defeat them easily, right?
"Beidou, do you know Nexus?"
"Nike, what?"
"No, it's nothing."
It seems that Ace does not know the other party. Ling also already knows that it is not only the Kingdom of Light that can give birth to the Ultra Warrior Nexus, he must also be fighting silently in some corner of the universe.
"But what exactly do the Yabo people want to do here? Is this the experiment they are talking about?"
"Well, Brother Beidou, you just said that in the past few decades, as long as there was construction in this villa, accidents would inevitably occur, right?"
"Yes, the file found by the TAC team described it like this, so people around here are rumored to be a haunted house."
"Haunted house, that seems right."
"What, did you find anything?"
Beidou is in awe of Gaia and believes that Gaia can do things that Ace can't imagine. After all, it is the will of the planet.
There are countless planets in the universe, and there are many of them that can give birth to life and civilization based on the scale of the entire universe. But the planet itself is unique in that it can give birth to will.
It can be said to be unique.
This is a miracle comparable to the Guardian of the Universe. I heard that even the legendary King of Ultra who lived alone on King Star was alarmed and asked the captain about Gaia.
"Is this Akabane, which belongs to Kita-ku, Tokyo?"
"Yes."
"I heard that during the Edo period, there was an Akabane River here."
Akabane River? I vaguely remember the name Beidou, but I don’t remember where I heard it.
"Does the Akabane River have anything to do with the Awa people's actions this time?"
"I remember seeing the legend of kappa before. After they came to Japan from China, they became monsters that could be seen everywhere in the rivers and caused a lot of trouble. In the end, Lord Kato asked the monkey god to surrender, and then became the water palace.
The messenger was worshiped with incense. The shrine was located on the bank of the Akabane River in Edo, which is now Akabane in Tokyo."
But that shrine disappeared a long time ago.
"You mean, the shrine on the bank of the Akabane River used to be right here?"
Kappa are originally monsters. Although they are worshiped, it is more because of the fear of the villagers. Because of fear, they became gods. After they stopped using incense, it is true to say that it is a "haunted house".
Ling also stepped across the grass and walked to where the "swimming pool" was, which was where the super beast was born. She couldn't feel it before yesterday, but now she vaguely noticed something similar to a "door".
Of course it is not a door in the human sense, but a hub between layered spaces.
She activated the medal of Nexus and stretched her hand somewhere in the air.
There was nothing there originally, and it was still nothing after Lingya stretched out his hand, but Beidou was keenly aware that something seemed to have changed.
"Want to come in and take a look?" Lingye asked. She glanced at Beidou, and then took a step forward. Just one step, and then the whole person disappeared in front of Beidou.
Beidou was stunned for a moment, and then realized something. Since it was Lingya who made the invitation, there should be nothing to be afraid of. Beidou stretched out his hand in the direction where Lingya disappeared, and it didn't feel like it was touching anything, but his hand
After stretching beyond a certain limit, it also disappeared from sight.
There is a gap in space, connecting to the unknown.
