Chapter 216: Paper Banner Leads Souls, Basin Reveals This was the first time that Hiramiya Chiye had entered Horii Suzune's room. The room was about 30 square meters in size. In addition to a desk, wardrobe, dressing table and other items in the room, there was also a small Buddhist shrine embedded in the wall. Inside the niche is a miniature statue of Vairocana Buddha that was brought back from the Heimiya Chiye Temple. It was carved from sandalwood by Heimiya Chiye himself. Two small bell instruments were hung on the place where the wind chimes were originally hung on the window, and they made crisp sounds from time to time as the night wind blew. At the head of the bed with blue and white bedding, above the sky blue pillow, there is a Vajra Realm Mandala. In a room like this, even if there is a ghost hiding in the cell phone, it would never dare to show up in this room. So, how did it have the guts to make harassing calls? Hiramiya Chiye looked around the entire house and knew that even without his help, with the tight defense of Horii Suzune, if the ghost dared to show up, it would be killed in seconds. There will be no surprises. While Hiramiya Chiye was looking around the room, Horii Suzune was sitting at the head of the bed playing with her cell phone, with her long legs together, revealing her ankles and insteps as white as milk.
Tonight, she was wearing a blue nightgown dress with white lace edges and a small blue flower on each shoulder. She seemed to have just taken a shower, her hair was not completely dried yet, and there were some traces of wetness at the ends of her hair. Her long black hair, which was not held up by a hair tie, just fell down vertically, and some of it stuck to her shoulders. The fragrance of shampoo and shower gel fills the whole house, with a faint milky scent. Girls’ rooms are all sweet, and this is a place that often appears and is described in light novels. Overall, it is indeed cleaner and tidier than my own room. "Very good." Pinggong Qianye sat on the chair in front of the desk with a satisfied smile on his face. As expected of someone I have known for a long time, he is so careful and cautious that he is not easily harmed by ghosts. "What's nice, my room?" "Well, you can handle this matter by yourself." "Is that right?" Horii Suzune put down her phone, her eyes fell on Pinggong Qianye's face, she took a look and chuckled, "But I don't have any means to subdue demons. These things can only prevent me from getting hurt." "That's because you don't know how to use these items yet." "Would Hiramiya-san be willing to teach me?" Horii Suzune blinked her beautiful eyes, but before Hiramiya Chiye could reply, the phone in Horii Suzune's hand rang. It was that unknown phone call from last night again. Horii Suzune looked at Hiramiya Chiye, and after getting a nod, she answered the call and turned on the speakerphone. After a burst of silence, a woman's scream rang out, echoing throughout the room. But this scream only lasted for a few seconds. The woman on the other end of the phone seemed to be strangled by someone. Her voice instantly became hoarse and she could no longer make a sound. Only faint blind sounds remained. This phenomenon is not consistent with the description given by the male member of the supernatural club before.
At least, it lacks attack power and endurance. Horii Suzune lowered her head slightly, turned her head, and looked at the wall with the Vajra Realm Mandala on it. This is the protective Vajra Realm Mandala that her father gave her for self-defense after hearing about her experience. "It's afraid." Hiramiya Chiya gave her guess, and Horii Suzune nodded slightly. Last night, she already knew that this ghost was very bullying and afraid of evil. At that time, the cell phone kept ringing. She felt a little scared at first, but soon she calmed down. Put your cell phone in front of the Buddhist shrine, and after a while, the ringtone will naturally disappear. When she took the phone back into her hand, the strange ringtone rang again. She had no choice but to leave her phone in front of the shrine all night, and nothing happened that night. "Can this kind of ghost hiding in the phone be caught?" "Yes, but it takes a little time. It will be easier to catch it on the last day." Ghosts are easy to deal with once they reveal themselves, and the moment they are exposed to people is also when they are most vulnerable. "Now?" "Let's rest first." "I have a box of cookies here. They are milk chocolate flavored and taste really good." Horii Suzune stood up, took out a box of biscuits from the drawer of the desk, handed it to Hiramiya Chiye, and asked him to help tear it open. Pinggong Qianye opened the cookie box, and inside were 12 chocolate sandwich cookies. He picked up a cookie and started eating. It was indeed quite good. The sweetness of the milk neutralized the bitterness of the chocolate, presenting a very sweet taste. It should be a biscuit of a well-known brand. He took another look at the packaging bag. It was White Lover biscuits from Sapporo, Hokkaido, a very famous brand. After eating two cookies, Pinggong Qianye came up with a safer and relatively simple method. It would certainly be easier to wait until the last day, but there was no guarantee who would be killed during that time. It would be better to take advantage of this opportunity with Horii Suzune and directly capture the ghost hiding in the phone. Hiramiya Chiye stood up and walked to the door, shouting to Horii Yuji who was eavesdropping outside, asking him to prepare a basin full of water. Horii Yuji outside didn't say anything. After a while, he came and knocked on the door. Hiramiya Chiye opened the door, and Horii Yuji's eyes were like two detection lights, looking through the crack of the door and looking around the room. "My daughter's matter..." "Thank you, it's really troublesome." Pinggong Qianye took the basin from his hands with a smile, hooked the door with his heel, and closed it again. In fact, even if the door was open and Horii Yuji saw what was happening here, nothing unexpected would happen.
But, he always has a dark face when he sees me, so let him have a darker face. Bring the basin of water into the room, ask Horii Suzune to clean the desk surface at the windowsill, and then place the basin of water on it. "You're not going to put my cell phone in the basin, are you?" Horii Suzune looked at the basin and made a guess. Pinggong Qianye nodded, agreeing with her statement, and asked her to put the phone into a waterproof bag first, and then put it into the basin of water. "Hiramiya-san, what is this method called?" "Paper banners lead souls, and basins reveal shapes." "Immediately made up?" "It is indeed an idea I just came up with while eating cookies. It may work." Outside the window, the moonlight is still bright tonight. Hiramiya Chiya asked Horii Suzune to bring a piece of white paper and a pen. He took the paper and pen, wrote and drew on the white paper, then rolled up one corner of the paper with the pen and pinched it with his fingers, forming a simple soul-calling flag that was not even as big as a palm. After a few swings, it feels okay. Hiramiya Chiye asked Horii Suzune to turn off the lights in the room, and for a moment, the room was pitch black. Horii Suzune leaned against Hiramiya Chiye's right arm, pulled a corner of his clothes with her small hand, and pressed her body against him. Without the Buddha statue to suppress it, the strange cell phone ringtone rang again. The entire basin was illuminated by the light from the mobile phone screen. Horii Suzune poked her head out from behind Hiramiya Chiya to observe what was happening in the basin. "Don't worry, it will only appear after I summon its soul." Hiramiya Chiye signaled to Horii Suzune to relax, then he waved the homemade soul-calling flag in his hand and gently shook it on the water. There was no movement at first. After waiting for a while, ripples appeared on the water surface without wind, spreading out in circles, as if something was about to come out of the basin. Horii Suzune moved a little closer, resting her cheek on Hiramiya Chiya's arm, and watched the scene in front of her curiously. Circles of water rippled, emitting scattered light, and the surrounding environment was dark. Very beautiful. Although Horii Suzune knew that using beauty to describe the horrific events that were happening at the moment and the ghosts that were about to appear was not an appropriate description. But in the dark room, the glowing basin and the ripples on the water surface are a bit dreamy and really beautiful. When people see a scene they have never seen before, they will be shocked at first sight, and then they will feel a sense of beauty from the bottom of their hearts. As Pinggong Qianye quickly waved the Soul-Calling Banner in his hand, bubbles began to gurgle in the middle of the basin, like a pot of boiling water. At the center of the boiling water, a head gradually emerged. Horii Suzune's heart trembled, but she did not look away. She just subconsciously grabbed Hiramiya Chiye's arm.
It was a head without hair, or rather, it was forcibly shaved. The left half looked like a young girl, and the right half looked like a baby. They both had hideous faces, with marks of being cut by knives. When it appeared, the temperature of the entire room dropped several degrees. Its gaze was like a cold poisonous snake. Just one glance at Horii Suzune made her feel her heart pause for a moment. "I sympathize with your experiences in life, but now that you are dead, please do not drag innocent lives to die with you." Pinggong Qianye whispered, and pointed the soul-calling flag in his hand at the center of the head's eyebrows. His magic power flowed, and he took the ghost into the soul-calling flag. Then a ball of golden Buddha fire ignited the soul-calling banner, and the girl and baby in the banner disappeared along with the gradually extinguished flame as Pinggong Qianye chanted sutras to bid farewell. The only smell left in the air was the smell of burnt paper. (End of this chapter)
