"It's fine if that place is in Tokyo...if it's not..."

Unfolding the "Kanto Area Traffic Map" and standing it on her chest very naturally, Mai Hanyu narrowed her eyes and looked at the contents in anguish, as if she was stumped by the too primitive way of indicating the scroll.

"Let's not mention whether this thing refers to a place or something, and how long the display of this symbol will last... If it is in places such as the North and South Pole, Europe, and other places far away from the island of Japan, I am afraid that it will only be found in the year of the monkey."

Hou Hai Lu Dou, who was typing on the keyboard with his back to the crowd, completed her unfinished words.

Because of the task arranged by a wayward president, he can only continue to work overtime in the conference room here.

"No wonder, the Mochizuki clan and the royal family spent so much time and failed to get this thing done..."

"Hey, don't look at the map in such a way that distracts others' attention and shows off your bust maliciously! 』

Finally, he struggled to get his eyes away from Hanyu Mai's broad mind that easily supported the map. Sousuke Araki picked up the thick picture scroll, carefully looked at the arrow symbols formed by the gathering of white light, and sighed helplessly. .

Although he is not good at analyzing these things, he also understood the meaning of the two of them.

"Bastard, just a broken picture scroll..."

Then, he fiercely threw the painting scroll on the table: "Come on, where is the secret treasure, or I will break you!"

After finally gathering enough soul dust, the clues obtained are so slim, which is indeed a little discouraging.

"Clap."

Under his strong blow, the knots on the outside of the picture scroll unraveled desolately, rolled along the long conference table, and slowly spread out in front of everyone.

"Really, although it is an indestructible grudge, Araki-kun, you can't litter it, smashing flowers and plants or something..."

Atsumi Luto on the side put down the laptop and handed a bottle of DR.PEPPER to Sousuke Araki.

"Ah? Here, don't you remember this painting before?"

After taking a sip of the drink in his hand, Hou Hai Ludou's eyes suddenly fell to the end of the unfolded picture scroll.

After this picture scroll was brought back by Mai Hanyu, he made a comprehensive record, and at the same time made various material identifications on the handwriting, paint, etc. of the paintings. It can be said that he kept every picture in his heart.

At this moment, at the end of the scroll, there was an unseen painting.

In the picture outlined by black and white lines, it is a four-lane tunnel with two bridges that can be seen everywhere in Japan.

The brushstrokes and realistic painting techniques of this ink painting are quite different from the painting style in front of this painting scroll.

It's not so much a painting as a drawing, or even a photograph.

"Whee…"

At the same time, Hanyu Mai's eyes were glowing, with an imaginative chuckle, and she approached the picture scroll.

This kind of modern tunnel, which appeared in the picture scrolls thousands of years ago, is no longer an ordinary thing.

If it was there before, it is impossible for them not to notice, so it can only be a recent change.

"Sure enough..."

She took out the tape measure she got from somewhere, and pulled it directly from the conference table along the picture scroll...

"This painting scroll has become longer...just the length of a painting more than before!"

"So, this new 'grown' painting is also one of the clues given?"

Looking curiously at the dark tunnel in the simple picture, Sosuke Araki didn't think it would be of much help.

"It's easy to say if you have a picture, but this kind of tunnel is everywhere in Japan..."

"Crack...knock..."

Hanyu Mai, who was on the side, had already taken out the SLR equipped with the "Eye of Reality" and started shooting frantically.

"Although there are tunnels everywhere, as long as the images captured by crawlers on the Internet and the appearance and proportion of the tunnels are compared with big data, as long as the places are not very remote, I believe there will be results soon."

At the same time, awakened by the excited voices of the crowd, the bird Yumayumi, who was dazedly and drooling at the corner of his mouth, looked at the picture scroll, and suddenly pointed his finger to the corner of the picture.

"Yawn... Mr. Araki, this symbol seems to be some kind of vessel."

In the lower right corner of the painting, there is a circular symbol sketched in simple strokes.

"This thing, is it a bowl? A basin? A pot? I feel a little familiar..."

After her reminder, everyone noticed the sticky symbol below it.

"Let me see…"

He took the picture with his mobile phone and transferred it to the computer, and Hou Hai Lu Dou's fat fingers tapped on the keyboard flexibly.

"Oh, there is... the container with the highest similarity in shape is the 'bowl'."

In less than a minute, Houhai Ludou found the results through the image search engine comparison.

"Bowl? The one for the monk to beg for? No wonder it looks so familiar."

After his reminder, Araki Sosuke suddenly realized.

Bowls generally refer to the food utensils used by monks. According to different materials, there are tile bowls, iron bowls, wooden bowls, etc.

According to the Buddhist system, monks must live a simple life. In terms of personal belongings, they are only allowed to hold three robes and one bowl, and the amount of each meal cannot exceed one bowl.

When "retreat practice" at Kawasaki Daishi Temple, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Araki Sosuke also received a bowl for daily meals, but he never brought it back.

"So, what this picture and the arrow-like symbol want to indicate should be this thing?"

After summing it up, Hanyu Mai suddenly glanced at the thick sea Ludou with ill will.

"Cough cough cough... Damn, let me check again? The information about the resentful spirit just now, the crawler program has not been written yet..."

Feeling the coercive gaze of the old sister, Hou Hai Lu Dou, who was sitting beside the computer, shuddered.

"Who asked you to be the first (only) hacker under my command? I would like to help the ninth class and the research institute, but Uncle Shiben..."

Hanyu Mai glanced at one of the hackers under his command without saying a word.

"Also, I clearly saw that you have plenty of time, and I just took the time to look at the tentacle book..."

"Cough, watching cartoons is to relieve stress and work more efficiently... In the high-tech era, the trivial matter of capturing raw information can be done by reptiles after setting it up. Why do I need a professional like me to do it myself!"

After being exposed in public by the fact of being sloppy and lazy, Hou Hai Lu Dou typed the keyboard quickly and pretended to be calm: "I'll set up another crawler program to automatically grab a tunnel of similar proportions and a picture about that bowl, and I'll wait for tomorrow. Let's see the result..."

Thanks to the generous financial assistance of the Taito District Reconstruction Foundation, he has obtained permission to use several cloud servers with powerful computing power.

Thanks to the powerful computing power, the speed of collecting data is not comparable to that of the "small workshop" in Akihabara.

I really have no soul in Tokyo https://
