Chapter 773 Tragedy
Combined with the description of witnesses, the police at the time confirmed that the woman thrown into the sea by Ezaki Nagayasu was his wife Ezaki Kazu.
Police searched the house and found chlorpromazine tablets with Ezaki's saliva in the bedroom.
A common antipsychotic drug at the time.
Nagayasu Ezaki's family has been following the doctor's advice and making him take this sedative for a long time.
In addition, there were large bloodstains and dragging marks in the bedroom.
It is speculated that during a medication process, Nagayasu Esaki pretended to take chlorpromazine, a nerve-soothing drug, and deceived his wife who was taking care of him at the time, and then attacked her when she was not paying attention.
After a long search, the police found the drowned body of Nagayasu Ezaki near Wakasa Bay, but did not find Kazu Ezaki.
Her body was probably swept into the deep sea.
Some time later, the police followed legal procedures and declared Kazu Ezaki dead, although his body had not yet been found.
This is the whole tragedy that happened to the Ezaki family——
The folklorist suffered from "Capgras delusion syndrome" and stubbornly believed that his wife was replaced by something unknown.
Therefore, he killed his wife, and he himself could not bear the torture of delusions and hallucinations, so he finally committed suicide by jumping into the sea.
"My brother and Jiajin are both good people. They shouldn't have ended up like this... The doctor said that Capgras delusion is often accompanied by violent tendencies, but we really thought my brother was much better at that time. If I had known earlier... If I had known that this would happen..."
Ezaki Shoka recounted what had happened with difficulty, his eyes already red.
Kamiya and Onizuka listened quietly to the story of this tragic incident.
What Mr. Esaki said was basically the same as the information Kamiya and his colleagues had, but it was more specific.
……
"Mr. Ezaki, you said that the place where your brother used to do folklore research was the study on the second floor, right?"
"Yes... but there is nothing there. My family believes that my brother's schizophrenia may be related to his fanatical interest in folklore, so the things there, those books and collections, are considered to be ominous. I don't know whether it was cleaned up before Kazu's accident or my parents cleaned it up afterwards."
This is what Esaki Shokai said.
He could sense that the two young police officers from Tokyo seemed extremely interested in his brother's previous research in folklore.
Maybe they'd like to check out the study on the second floor next.
But the result will definitely make them feel regretful, because there is really nothing there.
Kamiyagawa and Onizuka Kirihotaru looked at each other, and then nodded slightly to each other.
During the time that Ezaki Shoka was speaking, the two young exorcists seemed to have made some definite discoveries.
"Is this where the study is located?"
Kamiyagawa walked to a corner of the hall. The originally gorgeous carpet under his feet had rotted, revealing the dusty wooden floor.
He stood there and pointed to the ceiling above his head.
"Uh..." Jiang Qishengjia first recalled the structure of this big house, and then nodded slowly, "Yes... yes."
Ta, tap.
Kamiyagawa narrowed his pupils and stomped the floor beneath his feet.
The creaking of the old wooden floor was the same as everywhere in the front hall.
Ordinary people cannot see anything strange here, but Shen Gu is different.
"There's something underneath here... Mr. Ezaki, we may have to do some destructive investigation on your house."
"Please rest assured. If we make a mistake in judgment, we will definitely give you appropriate compensation." Onitsuka cooperated from the side.
Although she said this, she was very clear that her and Achuan's judgment would never be wrong.
"you……"
Ezaki Shoie had no idea what the two police officers were talking about.
There was actually nothing more to investigate about his brother, but he nodded anyway.
Why don't you come up?
Perhaps deep down in his heart, he always hoped that the tragedy would turn out well.
But, what is the chance of turning this around?
The elder brother was ill and killed his wife, Kazin.
There is evidence, there are eyewitnesses, everything is a fact that is set in stone.
"Mr. Ezaki, please step back."
"Back off a bit?"
Ezaki Shoka retreated without knowing what was going on.
"Thank you for your cooperation."
Just after retreating a few meters, Ezaki Shoka heard the young and handsome male police officer say this.
Then, he saw an unexpected and unreasonable scene——
There was a clear "clang" sound, and the male police officer flipped his right hand at his waist and pulled out a long and dazzling golden sword "out of thin air".
His movements were so fast that Ezaki Shokai had no time to react.
Boom!
Then, the golden sword stabbed straight into the ground, the narrow blade cutting through iron like mud, piercing into the ground like a piece of tofu. With the sword as the center, the rotten wooden floor was instantly opened by the powerful impact.
Kamiyagawa cut the boy and pulled him out of the ground.
He himself took a big leap backwards.
Ezaki Shoke saw it clearly. The golden sword cut through the solid ground and rose up with a whistling sound. There was not even a tiny crack on the blade. It was still intact as before.
Beneath the wooden floor, the originally solid ground gradually revealed deep cracks.
As if torn apart, the cracks on the ground spread rapidly, becoming as intricate as a spider web. The sound of dust and stones sliding down was as heavy and slow as a death knell, echoing in the empty lobby.
The corner of the mansion's front hall that Kamiya had chiseled open with his knife is collapsing!
At the edge of the collapse, the soil took on a strange color, which was a mixture of moist soil and dry rocks. They intertwined together to form irregular boundaries.
Onizuka Kirihotaru casually took out a Xun talisman.
The high-level Qingming Kikyo talisman spell summons out a controllable powerful wind.
The wind pressure, which was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, accurately lifted up all the collapsed soil and rocks and piled them to one side.
In this way, the collapse of the ground finally stopped until a deep pit about three or four meters collapsed under the corner of the front hall.
It was obvious that there was a cellar under the Ezaki family's house.
Or it can be said to be a sealed underground space.
The scene before his eyes made Ezaki Shoka completely stunned, not only because he saw the incomprehensible abilities displayed by these two young men who claimed to be police officers. Compared to that——
Why is there a cellar under my house?
And it seems to be completely sealed underground, with no entrance or exit.
What is this for?
While Ezaki Shoie was still in shock, he saw the young female police officer nimbly jump into the pit.
He moved closer hastily.
The walls of the underground cellar were made of yellow-brown soil and bore traces of artificial excavation.
And because Guizhong used the Xun Fu to cooperate with the divine valley, the collapsed rocks on the top did not fall into the cellar. The entire cellar is only a few square meters in area, and it can be seen clearly from above.
In the corner of the cellar, there was a shriveled human corpse.
The corpse was in a state of disfigurement and extremely twisted. The deceased must have suffered great pain before his death. It was unknown how long the corpse had been in this closed underground space. Now it was basically just a skeleton covered with a layer of completely dried flesh.
What made Ezaki Shoka feel even more horrified and frightened was——
The corpse's abdomen to the center of the ribs was completely peeled open. The withered and weathered thin skin shrank into a tough layer of leather, dark brown in color, like the wings of some unknown insect, spreading out to both sides of the body, revealing an empty abdominal cavity.
Such a situation made Ezaki Shokai unconsciously think of...cocoon.
Yes, cocoon.
It was as if something unknown had once broken out of the belly of this corpse.
Such associations made Ezaki Shokai feel strongly like vomiting.
In contrast, the two young police officers both had slightly solemn expressions, but it was obvious that neither of them showed any physical discomfort.
One of the female police officers stood in front of the horrific corpse in the cellar. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Ezaki Shoka seemed to catch a glimpse of a tiny white blurry arc of light, lingering around the fingertips of her raised right hand, and it disappeared in a flash.
The excessive fear made Jiang Qishengjia unable to hold back his emotions any longer and he was about to collapse: "Who on earth are you two?"
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Ezaki. We introduced ourselves at the beginning. We are police officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. It's just that the matters we handle on a daily basis are different from those of ordinary police officers."
Kamiya, who was not far away, said this in a calm tone.
Ezaki Shoka's eyes met his, and at that moment, the fear that was surging in his heart instantly calmed down a lot, and for no reason he believed Kamiya Kawa's words without a doubt.
As the "Lord of the World", Kamiya has a very strange and undeniable persuasive power even if he just stands there.
At this time, Onitsuka in the cellar raised his head, sighed slightly, and gave the information he had just received from the spiritual communication: "This is Ezaki Kazu."
Kazu Ezaki has been dead for a long, long time.
Her soul did not turn into a ghost, but after such a long time, there are still some fragments of her soul that can be used for spiritual communication on her corpse.
Although the information obtained through spiritual communication was not too much, in Onitsuka's opinion, it was already a miracle.
The only explanation is that Kazu Ezaki must have been a very determined person during his lifetime.
"You said this is Kazu?"
Mr. Ezaki, who had just calmed down a little, widened his eyes.
Everything that happened today was beyond his understanding.
Mr. Ezaki didn't know how the two police officers in front of him quickly determined the identity of the body in the cellar.
But if what they say is true...
No.
how can that be possible?
Kazu was clearly thrown into the bay by her brother, so how could she appear in this closed cellar?
Moreover, who did such a cruel thing to Kazu?
Could it be that my brother did it?
All along, Ezaki Shoka told himself that his brother killed Kazu and committed suicide by jumping into the sea because he was sick.
He did this because he was sick and unconscious.
But everything I saw before me seemed to indicate that my brother had done something even more horrible.
He locked his wife in a dark underground and cut open her abdomen.
This is so inhumane and simply an act of the devil.
Ezaki Shoie couldn't accept this. He would rather believe that his brother had jumped into the sea with Kazu.
"Mr. Esaki, your brother passed away in the summer of 1979, right?" Onizuka, who was in the cellar, suddenly asked.
Folklorist Nagayasu Esaki killed his wife in 1979 and then drowned himself in the sea.
This is what is recorded in his file.
“Yes…yes.”
Ezaki Shoka nodded.
Then, Onitsuka's eyes became a little strange, as if with a little sympathy and pity. After hesitating for a second or two, she spoke again:
"The Ezaki Kazu in the cellar died in 1978."
"what are you saying?"
Mr. Ezaki shook his head vigorously.
What to do.
These two so-called police officers of unknown origin were indeed talking nonsense.
how can that be possible?
In 1978, Kazu was still alive and well.
At that time, my brother had just been diagnosed with schizophrenia. When my brother was living in a mental hospital, Jia Jin often went to... take care of... him...
Suddenly, Ezaki Shoka's body trembled.
An extremely terrifying thought exploded in his mind like a thunderbolt, making his scalp and back numb in an instant.
My brother is ill with Capgras delusion.
Patients with this rare disease, due to their own hallucinations and delusions, will regard a close person around them as being impersonated or replaced by another "person" with the same appearance and behavior, and thus develop a strong sense of unease.
Before my brother fell ill, he once said that he heard unusual noises at home.
Someone called his name in the night and violent scraping sounds echoed in the corridor.
Bursts of wailing sounds came from somewhere underground.
From underground...
"no no……"
Ezaki Shoka took two steps back, feeling dizzy.
He recalled the first time he went to the hospital to visit his brother.
His brother was like a mad beast, with eyes wide open. He grabbed his arm and shouted, "Believe me, Shijia! They don't believe me, but you have to believe me. The current Jiajin is definitely not the Jiajin we know..."
My brother looked really scary at that time.
The young Ezaki Shoka instinctively shook off his hand out of fear.
But is there such a possibility?
When he thought of this, Ezaki Shokai felt cold all over. Even though it was broad daylight, his body felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless ice cellar.
That horrible thought, once it came into my mind, could not be shaken off.
Maybe his brother wasn't crazy.
Even when he was killing "Gajin" and just a second before he committed suicide by jumping into the sea, he still remained rational.
His brother...maybe he was more sober than anyone else from beginning to end.
Nagayasu Ezaki has never been sick.
