Chapter 2432 What the Hell Is This? (What Should I Do if I Don’t Want to Write an Update when I Play 77!)
The next day, Ellie came to Amagi Hotel again.
Perhaps because of the appearance of the Silver Witch, those media who were looking for gossip everywhere did not show up today. Instead, a bus was parked outside the hotel. Ellie walked into the hotel, only to see that everything was busy. One of the women dressed as a waitress saw Ellie and hurried over in small steps.
"I'm very sorry, my guest, what can I do?"
"I'm a magician."
Ellie took out her license again and flashed it to the woman in front of her.
"I have something to do with Xuezi Tiancheng, can you call her over? It's just to investigate some situations."
"Ah...Okay, please wait a moment."
Looking at the magician license in Ellie's hand, the waitress was obviously a little nervous, she nodded hurriedly, then turned and left. After a while, Yukiko Amagi hurried over.
"I'm very sorry, because there are group guests staying, so it's a bit busy..."
"No, it's not good for me to disturb you during your busy schedule. It's just a few small problems, and it will be over soon."
Ellie nodded to Amagi Yukiko, and then asked.
"Excuse me, did you leave the hotel last night?"
"Hey?"
Facing Ellie's question, Amagi Yukiko was obviously a little surprised, but still shook her head.
"No, I have been helping in the hotel because I received an appointment for a group of guests to check in last night."
"Didn't go shopping, or take a walk?"
"No, the shopping is done by my colleagues in the hotel..."
"That is to say, you stayed in Tiancheng Hotel for the whole night yesterday, and you didn't leave the hotel?"
"yes………"
"So have you ever been in a kimono and acted alone in the middle of the night?"
"This... no, because I have to help my mother and rarely leave the hotel."
Facing Ellie's question, Amagi Yukiko was full of doubts, but she answered her question honestly, while Ellie thought for a while, and then smiled at her.
"Sorry to interrupt, you can go to work, I'm done with my questions."
"Ah, ok, so sorry..."
Amagi Yukiko was also obviously puzzled as to why Ellie would ask such a question, but she was obviously very busy right now, so after saluting to Ellie, she turned around and left in a hurry, and Ellie also left the hotel and walked down the slope.
Could it be a mistake?
After seeing that figure last night, Ellie wondered if it could be Yukiko Amagi. After all, although the figure on TV was not very clear, she was wearing a kimono and was not very old, so Ellie's first reaction was Yukiko Amagi. . But after the inquiry just now, her thoughts had to change again. Because Amagi Yukiko obviously did not lie, and Ellie also asked the hotel maids after that, and their answers were basically the same. Judging from their expressions, these people did not lie, so that is to say, yesterday Amagi Yukiko did Did not leave the hotel.
So what happened to late night TV last night?
At first Ellie thought it was a live broadcast, but if it was not a live broadcast, then the prisoner recorded the video in advance and then broadcast it on TV—this kind of crime is not uncommon, basically it is a crime notice, telling others to accept it by themselves Who is the target of coming down.
Originally Ellie thought it would be Yukiko Amagi. After all, she is young but women wearing kimonos are rare, and the picture last night was blurry, but the kimono style of that figure was very similar to Yukiko Amagi. When I met her today Ellie confirmed this again, but... Yukiko Amagi didn't show any signs of being threatened.
Was it the wrong person, or did the other party have other tricks?
Ellie, who was puzzled, finally decided to make two-handed preparations. On the one hand, she continued to investigate the young girls who often wear kimonos on the twelfth artificial island. On the other hand, she also asked Mizuru Kirijo to prepare. After all, according to the rumors of "Late Night TV", people who appeared on TV will disappear. If the place where those missing people appear is "Tartaros", then the criminals are likely to kidnap hostages and go to the tower. If you live in crime, then naturally it is best.
Today is still a cloudy and rainy day, which is strange to say. Although it is not uncommon for this kind of place to rain, it does not have the rainy season like in mainland Japan. But when Ellie called back to ask Nagisa and the others, They told Ellie that most of the center of District 9 and String Kamishima was sunny, and it seemed that only the artificial island No. 12 had "partial rainfall".
Does the shadow time also affect the climate?
However, after searching for a day like this, there was still no result. Only in the evening, the rain stopped for a while, and then the shadow time came. Airi arranged for Akihiko Sanada and Mizuru Kirijo to lurk in the hall of the tower, while she brought Shiomi Kotone and Yue Yu Yukari to the fog passage on the second floor of Tartarus again to check the situation.
As a result, until the end of the shadow time, no one gained anything, no one sneaked into the tower at all, and there were no other strange signs. So dragging their tired bodies, the group returned to the Iwatodai branch again, and then sat down around the TV.
Today is also a rainy night.
In the middle of the night, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the TV was turned on again.
However, unlike before, this time the TV screen was much clearer, and a castle-like scene could be clearly seen——and then under the gaze of everyone, a girl dressed like a Disney princess appeared in the camera.
"Ok?"
Seeing the black-haired girl in front of her, Ellie was taken aback for a moment, because the one who appeared in the picture was none other than Amagi Yukiko!
"Good evening, everybody!!"
The black-haired girl in a princess dress looked quite lively and cheerful, holding a microphone in one hand while greeting the audience with a smile. This also surprised Ellie, because when she met Amagi Yukiko before, the other party gave her the impression of a quiet and introverted temperament, not this lively and cheerful type.
However, just as Ellie was thinking, Yukiko Amagi on TV also picked up the microphone with a smile and jumped around.
"Today, I, Yukiko Amagi, will come to strike up a conversation, and I want to challenge the so-called 'chasing back'! The title of the program is————"No Fake! Assault Chasing! Princess Xuezi's Prince Charming Search", super serious !"
At this moment, Yukiko doesn't feel like Yamato Nadeko at all. On the contrary, she scratches her head and poses in front of the camera, making a speechless gesture.
“……………………”
Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone was dumbfounded and completely speechless. On the other hand, Amagi Yukiko on the TV smiled and raised her fingers, looking at the audience on the TV.
"I'm super serious! Even places you can't see are guaranteed to be interesting!"
While speaking, Xuezi stretched out her hand, pressed it between her legs and skirt, winked at everyone, and then revealed her career line.
"Using the momentum as if I want to establish my exclusive men's PR club, then I'm going to go!"
After saying this, Amagi Yukiko turned around with a smile and disappeared into the castle gate. Afterwards, the TV screen became pitch black.
“……………………”
In the living room, there was also a dead silence at the moment.
"Is that... Tiancheng?"
Yue Yu stared at the TV dumbfounded by Jiali, as if he couldn't believe his eyes at all.
"What's going on here? How could Tiancheng..."
At this moment, Kirijo Mizuru also looked confused. Although they were not familiar with Amagi Yukiko, the other party was a female general of the hotel after all, so she was naturally well-known in the school, and they all had a certain understanding. In their impression, Amagi Yukiko was a very docile and steady girl, full of the atmosphere of Yamato Nadeko.
However, what is going on with this Xuezi who looks like a coquettish, cute and exposed flesh in the entertainment headlines? What the hell is this carnivorous woman who looks horny and wants to grab a man! What the hell is this late-night show-like thing! !
"I see……………"
Seeing this, Ellie also nodded silently. When she asked the station guard before, the other party told her that the programs on late-night TV looked like variety shows. At that time, Ellie didn't quite understand what was going on. , but after reading it now, she understood.
But now...
"All in all, let's go to Tiancheng Hotel first!"
After making a decision, Allie hurriedly got up.
If it was just a vague figure last night and it was not confirmed, but today's picture is so clear, and she herself revealed her name in it, then it can be confirmed that Tiancheng Xuezi herself did not run away!
If this is the case, then Amagi Yukiko should not be at the Amagi Hotel at this moment!
Soon, a group of people rushed to the Tiancheng Hotel where they had rested, and then found the staff on duty to ask about Xuezi's situation.
Then, they got a piece of news that Ellie didn't expect.
Yukiko Amagi, who was supposed to be resting in her room, disappeared without a trace at some point.
"how is this possible?!"
Faced with this scene, everyone was also taken aback, only Ellie remained quite calm --- if you live with a god of death who goes somewhere to die for a while, you will not be surprised at all.
"According to the testimony of the hotel staff, Amagi Yukiko was busy until after eleven o'clock before going to rest, which means that she disappeared between twelve o'clock and one o'clock."
Considering the presence of outsiders, Ellie didn't speak very clearly, but everyone understood what Ellie meant.
"Yes, but we have been ambushing in the tower, and we haven't seen anyone enter."
Kirijo Mitsuru had an incredulous expression on his face, and Ellie also frowned, puzzled. After all, she had been staring at the foggy corridor, until the end of the shadow time, the entire foggy corridor did not change at all. So Amagi Yukiko is not in Tartarus, but somewhere else?
Or did she have other means to get into the tower?
"In any case, we will continue to operate tomorrow night."
Ellie was not in such a hurry, and quickly gave an answer.
"Everything will be answered by tomorrow night."
