Chapter 297 The Strange Alien House

After two and a half hours of bumpy terrain, the little Jeep finally came to another relatively smooth dirt road.

This dirt road is built around the mountain. There are clumps of weeds on both sides of the road, giving it a relaxed and comfortable rural atmosphere.

"call……"

After getting off the car, Fujino stretched and breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling much more relaxed.

Two and a half hours!

Do you know how he spent these two and a half hours?

It's simply torture...

This time, I really suffered a lot.

"Thank you so much for your hard work."

Odagiri Susumu suddenly came over at this time, handed a bottle of water to Fujino, and said with a smile.

Fujino: "..."

Fujino looked at Odagiri Susumu, his eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't know what this guy's "hard work" meant, but he just felt that this guy deserved a beating.

"But luckily we drove here in a Jeep this time. If it had been an ordinary car, it would have stalled long ago..."

Fujino took the water bottle unceremoniously, unscrewed the cap and took a sip. Then he looked at the red jeep behind him and sighed.

But suddenly, he frowned.

Jeep…

Normally, shouldn't you drive an ordinary car when going out?

Or should he say that he had prepared this Jeep in advance...

I came here just to carry out a murder plan or something.

Thinking of this, Fujino looked at Odagiri and said, "By the way, did you rent this Jeep?"

"yes."

Odagiri nodded and explained with a chuckle: "I heard from Ruoye before that the roads in my hometown are bad, so I rented this Jeep before coming here. My car is an ordinary family car. I guess I can’t afford this kind of trouble.”

"Is this so..."

Fujino nodded when he heard this, feeling that he was thinking too much.

Encountering murders all day can indeed make people nervous.

Everything can lead to murder...

"Fujino-kun!"

At this time, Ooka Momiji, who was standing by the cliff and looking at the scenery, suddenly shouted to Fujino: "We seem to have arrived at Rokkaku Village."

"Arrived already?"

Fujino was surprised, walked forward, and saw a village in the valley appearing in front of him.

The terrain in the valley is wide and the trees are lush. From the scattered houses, it can be seen that this is a village.

In the middle of the village is a church-style building. With the church as the center, a six-pointed star appears in the form of a road dividing the surrounding trees.

There is a villa on each corner of the hexagram, and each villa is exactly within the small triangle and is connected to the entire village by the road that divides the hexagram.

Apart from the trees, there are only these seven buildings in the spacious space within the six-pointed star, while other people's houses are built slightly further outside the six-pointed star.

Those people's houses all look ordinary Japanese style, which is in sharp contrast to the villas in the six-pointed star...

It's like a strict hierarchy, and it feels like the alien house where the 'foreign adults' lived in when they were young...

Judging from the shape of the six-pointed star, it is not difficult to tell that this is the Hexagonal Village.

"Are even villages hexagonal?"

Haihara Ai followed Fujino. After seeing the six-pointed star pattern, she couldn't help but complain: "It's exactly the same as the name of this village..."

"It should be that this hexagonal building first appeared, so this village is called Hexagon Village."

Ooka Momiji said: "It is still very common in Japan to name your village after its characteristics."

"But why is there such a thing in the mountains?"

Odagiri Susumu also came over at this time, "Is it to hold some kind of strange mysterious ceremony?"

"You're thinking too much...Compared to some mysterious ritual, I think this six-pointed star is something like a crop circle..."

Fujino glanced at Odagiri speechlessly.

Why do you feel that these younger-looking teachers are all so middle-school?

But to be honest, he couldn't imagine who would be so idle as to create a six-pointed star on the ground.

Is it really because of some weird ritual?

Although everything is possible in Ke Xue's world, this is too outrageous.

He felt that the six-pointed star was most likely the same thing as the crop circle, and was designed to attract tourists to the village.

But after looking around, he decisively gave up the idea.

This remote place, not to mention attracting tourists, would probably cost an ordinary person half their life if they were to run there just once.

…………

After a short rest, the time came to four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as the car drove into the village, it came to the door of one of the six corners of the villa.

It was a three-story villa painted in white. There were four high towers at the four corners of the villa. Counting the high towers on the top of the building, there were five in total.

This kind of building is more like a castle than a villa.

But this villa is not Ruoye's home.

Because at the entrance of the villa, it is clearly marked [Tower House·Five Tower House].

The car continued to drive into the village and soon came to the second villa.

The second villa is a building similar to a mansion, surrounded by ivy. The house number is "Ivy Kusanagi House", which is not Wakaba's home.

Continuing to move forward, the group soon arrived at the door of another villa.

This villa is [Kabuto House, Kabuto House]. Although there are two mighty armors holding spears and shining with silver light at the door, and many crows are perched on the roof, it is obviously much simpler than the previous two villas.

Fujino found some patterns in the names of these villas.

That is, the name of each villa is related to the theme of the villa.

In addition, there is a six-pointed star hanging at the door of each villa, and each villa is missing a corner.

The first villa is missing the upper right corner, the second villa is missing the lower right corner, and this one is missing the lower corner.

From the pattern point of view, the missing corner should correspond to the location of the villa.

It is indeed a very subtle means of guidance.

It just makes him feel a little puzzled.

"By the way, where is Wakaba's home..."

Odagiri Shin parked the car at the door of Kabuto House and scratched his head impatiently.

Fujino glanced at his anxious look and could understand it...

After all, it is normal for his girlfriend to be anxious when she is about to get married.

It's just that the groom is not himself.

Retracting his gaze, Fujino asked Ooka Hongye: "By the way, Hongye, in addition to the map to Rokkaku Village, does the invitation that Wakaba sent you have more detailed location information?"

"No."

Hongye shook her head and took out the invitation from her pocket: "She only said that her home is in the Clock House on the invitation, but there is no specific location."

"Toki House?"

Fujino thought for a while and continued: "If it is named after the house, then her home should be among these six villas... I think we can find someone to ask about the location of the Clock House, just in case."

"Yeah, I think it's okay."

Graybara Ai nodded and agreed: "It's not a good idea to look for them one by one."

"Excuse me, is there anyone?"

Odagiri Susumu got out of the car first and shouted towards the villa, but there was no response for a long time.

"Could it be that the owner is not at home?"

Fujino pursed his chin.

Speaking of which, since they first came to this village, they have not met anyone else...

In a village, it is really a bit abnormal.

Thinking, Fujino turned around and saw a girl standing behind him.

The girl was wearing a white shirt, a beige knitted sweater, a black skirt, and long black hair with bangs. She looked... a bit dull and cold.

What was weird was that she was holding two black crows in her hands.

What was even weirder was that the other party's performance was too ordinary, just like an NPC in a horror game.

It felt like Chinese horror.

Fujino: "..."

Girl: "..."

Crow: "Coooo..."

"Huh?!"

The others also reacted at this time. When they turned around and saw the girl, they were all startled by the weird atmosphere.

Fujino's mentality was okay, very calm, and he didn't show too much surprise.

After a short silence, he walked forward and asked the girl in a friendly tone: "Excuse me, do you know how to get to the Tokita family?"

The girl narrowed her eyes and looked at Fujino coldly, then raised her hand that was holding the crow's neck and pointed in one direction.

Crow: "Gu...Gugugu..."

Fujian looked in the direction the girl pointed, and what came into view was the road to the next mansion.

It felt like pointing to nothing.

It was impossible to get effective information from the girl.

Helplessly, Fujino and his group could only look and grope.

But since she has pointed out the direction, it can be basically confirmed that the Tokita family is in these six villas...

Although the specific address was not obtained, at least knowing that the other party is in the six villas is also useful information.

Anyway, as long as it is in these six villas, it is only a matter of time to find it.

Passing by [Colored Glass Pavilion·Iseshiki Family], [Wind Direction Pavilion·Kazesaki Family], the group finally arrived at [Clock Pavilion·Tokita Family].

The architectural style of the Tokita family follows the same rules as those of the previous villas. On the roof made of white marble, there is a huge clock inlaid, which echoes the name of the Clock House.

And, on the top of the clock, there is a six-pointed star.

Following the same rules, this six-pointed star is missing the upper corner, which is exactly symmetrical with the position of the Armor House that we just passed.

"It's still a big detour..."

Odagiri got out of the car and looked at the detour that he just passed by. He said speechlessly: "If I had known that this was the Clock House, I wouldn't have turned just now."

"There's nothing I can do about it."

Fujino chuckled, "After all, we didn't know that the Clock House was here..."

As he said that, he walked forward and knocked on the door of the Tokita family.

After a while, the door was slowly pushed open a little.

A man with gray hair, a middle-parted hairstyle, an extremely pale face, and even a weird feeling showed half of his face.

The man's eyes widened, and he asked loudly to the people outside the door: "Who are you?!"

A moment of silence: "..."

Except for Fujino, the others were all frightened by the old man's amazing facial expressions.

"Gui An, I am Ooka Hongye, a classmate of Ruoye."

Ooka Hongye calmed down, introduced himself politely, and then took out an invitation from his pocket with a smile: "We have received an invitation to attend her wedding. Please inform her."

"invitation?"

The man's eyes were still big, and he didn't even blink. He said with a dull and cold face: "You are mistaken, my daughter's wedding is simply..."

"Dad, I asked them to come here."

At this time, a girl's plain voice interrupted the man and continued.

Fujino raised his head to hear the sound and saw a girl with fair skin and short black hair walking towards this side.

The girl has a cold face, wears a blue and green kimono, and has a temperament that feels like a hell girl.

'She should be Tokita Wakaba...'

From the information revealed in his words, Fujino immediately guessed the identity of the other party.

But I felt a little strange about the other party's performance.

Although he didn't know the girl named Ruoye, he felt that the girl named Ruoye was exactly the same in temperament as the girl who just showed him the way with two crows.

It's ice cold and a bit weird...

"It's so rude..."

Although the man's eyes were wide-eyed, his attitude suddenly changed drastically and he invited several people into the villa.

The decoration of the hall inside the Clock Museum is as luxurious as the outside. In addition to the luxurious decoration, there are also several maids in kimonos who are either busy or waiting.

"Ruoye."

"Red leaves..."

Ooka Hongye walked forward and said hello to Ruoye.

But before they could chat more, Ruoye waved to the old woman on the side: "You must be very tired after the long journey, go and rest first... Aunt Xue, please treat the guests who have come from afar and put their luggage in the guest room." lay down."

"Ruoye!"

Odagiri Susumu, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke, as if he was mentally prepared for something.

Ruoye was stunned when he heard this, but did not reply. He just turned around and left silently.

The surrounding maids were also attracted by this sound, and they all turned their attention to Odagiri Susumu.

The scene suddenly became a little stiff.

"Guys, come with me."

The old woman broke the silence and said to several people: "The eldest lady is dealing with marriage-related matters. Please forgive me for the poor reception."

"But……"

"Let's go."

Fujino dragged Odagiri in, and the group followed the old woman.

To be honest, he still felt a little speechless towards this Odagiri.

Is this guy really unable to understand the situation?

How dare you say such things when these servants are still here...

I really didn’t know that the so-called servants are the ones with the biggest mouths?

Under the leadership of the old woman, several people came to several guest rooms and assigned them.

"Speaking of which, before I leave, I have one more thing to ask you."

Before leaving, the old woman looked at the few people with a mysterious face and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please do not walk around in this mansion. If you forget this matter, encounter any misfortunes or unexpected events, our hotel will take care of you." irresponsible."
