Chapter 616 – A People’s Sick House
”Sorry, the house is a bit of a mess.” Yuzurina spoke somewhat apologetically.
”All of this, were those punks the ones who came to search?” Lin Qiye’s gaze swept over the surroundings, “Even the base of the chandelier was removed …… Are they bandits?”
”This place is even more chaotic than the last time I came back, they should have come back a few times after that.” Yuzurina sighed.
Lin Qiye nodded and carefully searched through the house with his spiritual energy.
If this room was really hiding something, it might be able to hide from the group of punks’ search, but there was absolutely no way it could hide from Lin Qiye’s spiritual perception, which was able to search every brick and tile once without any dead ends.
Yuzurina ran into the house with her shoes on and walked around the room, taking out a photo album from the bedroom floor at one point, carefully folding up a few newspapers from the rummaged up newspapers in the living room at another point, and picking up a few hairpins at another point.
The things she took were all rather fragmentary, belonging to the kind of small objects that were full of memories, as for the TV, refrigerator and such large items she didn’t even give them a second glance, because soon they would have to hide somewhere else, and it would be impossible to move such large items blatantly, it would surely attract the attention of others.
Lin Qiye’s spiritual power had already swept through the entire house but didn’t find anything at all, it really seemed like it was just an ordinary residence.
”This house, was it left behind by your mother?” Lin Qiye asked as he sat on the sofa and looked at the busy Yuzurina.
”It was left behind by mother.” Yuzurina thought for a moment, “But on the real estate license, it seems like it’s written in someone else’s name.”
Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow, “Why would you write someone else’s name for your own house?”
”I don’t know ah, I only recently learned about these things, when my mother was alive, she didn’t mention it to me at all.”
Lin Qiye was puzzled.
”Huh?” Yuzurina looked at the phone on the table, and a puzzled look emerged in her eyes.
”What’s wrong?”
”Since four days ago, there’s a phone call that comes every day.” Yuzurina flipped through the phone records and said suspiciously, “Moreover, the last three digits of this call are 110…… this seems to be the phone number of some police station?
The 06 in the middle seems to be the area code for …… Osaka?”
Yuzurina said with some uncertainty.
Just then, the phone in the room suddenly rang.
Jingle bell-!
This sudden ringing of the phone startled Yuzurina and she stumbled back a few steps, turning her head to look at Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment and nodded at her.
”Since it’s a call from the police, you can answer it and see.”
Yuzurina stepped forward, picked up the phone, and pressed the speakerphone button.
”Hello, this is the Osaka City Police Department, is this the fourth generation citizen, Yuzurina, number 42857494?”
Yuzurina was stunned, “It’s me ……”
Yuzu Rina had just uttered those words when she began to regret them, she had already committed a felony when she committed suicide on the beach the day before yesterday, and now blowing her own cover in front of the police was like throwing herself into a trap ……
That’s not right, the call was made here four days ago, which means she hadn’t committed suicide when they were looking for her?
And she was a resident of Yokohama, so even if they wanted to arrest her, it should be the Yokohama police’s responsibility, so why was it Osaka’s police department calling her?
Just as Yuzurina was wondering, the female voice on the other end of the phone continued:
”Your father, also known as [Fierce Ghost] level wanted criminal Yuzuru Ri Kurotetsu, was killed by the Osaka police four days ago, and he had some belongings on him as a relic that he needed his relatives to come and collect, so when do you have time to come to Osaka?”
Yuzurina froze in place.
”Hello? Can you hear me?” The female voice on the other end of the line came out again.
Yuzurina didn’t answer, she hesitated for a moment and hung up the phone straight away.
”What, aren’t going to go see him one last time?” Lin Qiye’s eyebrows rose slightly when he saw Yuzurina’s reaction.
”I …… don’t know.”
Yuzu Ri Nai lowered her head, her lips pursed slightly, her expression somewhat tangled, “I haven’t seen him for many years, and since he abandoned us mother and daughter, I’ve severed my relationship with him ……”
”Perhaps in his belongings, there are those things that the mob is looking for that can explain all of this.”
”I ……”
Lin Qiye looked at Yuzurina’s tangled expression, sighed, and sat up from the sofa, “I’m just an outsider, I’m not qualified to sway your choice, but I think …… she’s your father after all, so it’s best to visit him once if you can, and after this time, it’s goodbye forever.
It just so happens that I am also going to Osaka, if you want to go to claim his relics, I can accompany you on a trip.
Think about it yourself.”
To be honest, this kind of anguish on Yuzurina’s body was something Lin Qiye couldn’t feel because he didn’t even remember what his parents looked like, let alone seeing them one last time or anything.
Yuzurina absentmindedly finished collecting her things, placed them in a cardboard box, and followed Lin Qiye in the direction of the container.
Soon, they reached their destination.
It was late in the day, and on the dim and lightless wasteland, an old woman with white hair was guarding the door of the container, and against the cold wind, she was clutching a few bunches of bundled up thousand paper cranes in her hands, as if she was praying for something.
”Grandma Crane.” Yuzurina saw the figure and immediately ran forward.
”Little Yuzuri!” Grandma Crane raised her head, seeing the Yuzuri-nai running head-on, a color of surprise surfaced in her cloudy eyes, “You’re finally back! Nothing happened, right?”
”No ah grandma, I just got lost outside, it was …… this brother who brought me back.” Yuzurina pointed at Lin Qiye and said.
Lin Qiye politely smiled and quietly stood aside with the red-colored black pupil, not stepping forward to disturb the cozy picture of these two reuniting.
When the two people who were hugging each other separated, Yuzu Rina took the snacks and desserts that Lin Qiye had delivered to the door and cheerfully returned to the house with Grandma Tsuru, while Lin Qiye casually found a reason to leave first.
That one tiny container was already cramped to house the two of them, and he didn’t even have a place to land once he brought Red Face and Black Hitomi to sit inside.
Lin Qiye found a place on a nearby hillside, sat down on his knees, closed his eyes and entered the Asylum of the Gods to continue his interview business!
With his previous interview experience, Lin Qiye was able to sign up nurses much faster this time around, and in less than two hours, he was able to dispose of all of the remaining two hundred “mysteries”.
Lin Qiye stood on the corridor of the second floor of the hospital, looking at the courtyard under his feet crowded with caregivers, he couldn’t help but lament.
My Gods Psychiatric Hospital, really thriving ah ……
