Chapter 172 The Unusual Haunted House
Chapter 172 The Unusual Haunted House
Lin Yeming picked up Kenmura Yumi in his car and, following her directions, arrived at her alma mater.
She looked great today, but he still had a strange feeling about her.
The difference between working with her and others is huge.
She has a kind of girl-next-door vibe, which gave him a different feeling.
Lin Yeming still found it a bit strange that she suddenly wanted to return to her alma mater to participate in the school festival.
Although TPC isn't as busy now, there are still quite a few things that require her, as the head of the weapons development center, to oversee.
Horii is probably going to be very busy if I come out with her.
However, Lin Yeming prefers to ask directly when he has doubts, rather than waiting for the other party to realize it.
After thinking for a moment, he smiled and looked at the passenger seat, saying, "Yumi, tell me about your school."
When Yumi Kenmura heard that Ye-ming Lin wanted to know about her alma mater, she smiled happily.
"Actually, I didn't have time to come this time either. It's a pity that my juniors asked me to come and support the school's students. Of course, the most important thing is that the school's students really like your Victory Team."
In fact, Kenmura had already noticed in the Development Bureau that the atmosphere within the bureau and at the top had recently become somewhat strained.
Director Sawai and Director Yoshioka apparently reached some agreement that allowed them to suppress internal dissent.
Some personnel changes also struck her as odd.
Originally, she was too lazy to care about these things, as long as they didn't affect the budget of her weapons development center.
But a special situation caught his attention.
According to some reliable sources, Director Zejing has been frequently in contact with Staff Officer Wang Jianjun of the Huaxia branch, as if they are planning something.
She worried that Lin Yeming was going to be transferred away, but according to her inquiries, that wasn't the case...
That's why she cares so much.
Lin Yeming slowed down slightly and replied, "Junior students? Do many people from this school work at TPC?"
Yumi Kenmura looked at Lin Yeming's profile and said, "This academy has cultivated many talents and has influence in various fields."
"Speaking of which, this school wasn't originally called Senmu Academy."
"Oh? Did something else happen?"
"This academy used to be called White Fox Forest Academy, named after a nearby forest called White Fox Forest."
"However, it was named Mori Academy because of certain events, and this twentieth anniversary was recalculated after the name was changed to Mori Academy."
"In addition, many of the students here are the children of my younger schoolmates."
Lin Yeming noticed the unusual nature of this school.
First, the school's name.
Generally speaking, schools cannot be named arbitrarily.
Secondly, this school has an overwhelming number of talented people.
It's just a school ranging from elementary to middle school.
Leaving aside Yumi Kenmura, who became the head of a weapons development center despite being a woman, let's take her juniors as an example.
If the scope is so broad, even if it's just one person in each field, the total number of calculations would be quite staggering.
He suddenly remembered the genes of the ancient warriors and the prophet in the Ultraman Tiga world.
Ancient warrior genes affect various abilities.
The difference lies in the degree of development; perhaps everyone in the Ultraman Tiga world possesses the genes of an ancient warrior.
Taking Armor Heroes as an example, some of them are still hidden and have not been activated.
Some people don't have enough of that, while those with special abilities will develop those abilities.
For example, Ida Iryu and that prophet…
Finally, there was the prophet. He secretly investigated but found nothing unusual about the other party, as if the other party had no special abilities.
That person was just an ordinary employee, or rather, just an ordinary intelligence agency worker.
"If that's the case, then it's really something to look forward to."
Yumi Kenmura smiled and said, "It's good that you can have some expectations."
"However, I really did come here with a mission this time."
“A junior of mine asked me to look after his child. It happened suddenly. He had to go to Antarctica for scientific research and couldn’t attend this event. He couldn’t keep his promise to his daughter.”
"So you kept so many things in your car because your alumni asked you to."
What's the child's name?
Lin Yeming recalled that Yumi Kenmura was carrying large and small bags onto the car.
"It's a girl, her name is Fukuru Yumeko."
Lin Yeming nodded, and the two chatted for a while before arriving at Senmu Academy.
That place is packed with red flags and people...
It's obviously very lively.
Japanese school festivals are quite interesting; they welcome participation from the general public. However, because many schools hold them, the locals have a certain degree of demystification of these events.
It has now become an event to showcase the school's strength, so most of the attendees are students' parents.
After all, a school without sufficient resources simply cannot afford to operate.
To be honest, Lin Yeming rarely showed much interest in anything.
But as soon as he stepped into the school, he sensed something unusual, originating deep within the school.
He happily pulled Yumi Kenmura along as they walked inside.
However, she secretly released her light energy and kept it in her hand.
There's definitely something wrong with this White Fox Forest.
But there isn't a storyline about the White Fox Forest in the Ultraman Tiga world, right?
Lin Yeming and Kenmura Yumi weaved through the bustling crowds at the school festival. Various stalls sold a dazzling array of snacks and handicrafts, and the students' performances were also spectacular, but Lin Yeming's mind was not on any of these things.
As they ventured deeper into the campus, that unusual feeling grew stronger.
Lin Yeming observed his surroundings discreetly and noticed that some students seemed to have something unusual hidden in their eyes.
But the source is the haunted house in front.
Just as he was thinking about how to persuade Yumi Kenmura not to go in, a staff member approached Yumi Kenmura and said that the dean and some alumni were waiting for him.
Seeing this, Lin Yeming smiled and told her to go without worry.
Upon seeing this, Yumi Kenmura also said that she would be back soon and would take Lin Yeming to a nice place.
The two separated, while Lin Yeming observed the haunted house from the vicinity.
White Fox Forest?
Could it be a fox demon?
Although Lin Yeming was secretly observing the haunted house, he wasn't idle either, enjoying the delicious food while keeping watch.
He discovered a pattern: people were perfectly fine before entering the haunted house, but became very strange afterward.
On the surface, it seems fine, but in reality, it's no longer pure.
Lin Yeming noticed someone.
Uemura? No... it should be Ida Iryu.
What's that guy doing here?
