It was the next day of the investigation. We started by asking everyone to sit in the living room as Naru did his little Hypnotism experiment, to see if the cause of this supposed poltergeist is human or not.
"Breathe with the light, slowly…" Naru said. "A glass will move this evening. The glass will be sitting on the coffee table of this room."
Naru looked at me and I flipped on the lights. Everyone blinked and soon looked around.
"That's it," Naru said. "Please spend the rest of your evening like you would normally." Naru looked to Melissa. "Mrs. Yakuzawa, if I may have the key." Naru held out his hand to Melissa, who placed the key in his hand.
I brought out the glass, and as predicted, everyone's eyes were on it. I placed it on the table and everyone went back to talking among themselves.
"I'm getting tired," Tsujimura Rio, the eldest of Melissa's siblings, said, stretching and yawning.
"I think I will too," Razan said, following his brother.
"Aren't you going to help with dinner?" Yakuzawa Eisuke asked, Melissa's husband.
The two men left, not answering Eisuke.
"It can't be helped," Tsujimura Aaron said, smiling to his sister. "Just let them be. I'll help you instead."
"Oh!" Kimiko and Mami shouted, jumping up and down, smiling. "Can we help too, Mom?" Melissa smiled to both of her daughters and nodded.
"But," Melissa handed the girl's the baby she had been holding in her arms, "I need you to make sure Noritoshi gets to bed first." The two girls nodded and smiled, then ran off.
"Quite a big family…" Monk said, watching the family interact.
"I'm surprised all these people can fit in this home," John said.
"I agree…" I mumbled.
After that, Naru had everyone clear out of the room and he locked it. Then we made our way back to base, as the family continued to do their usual roaming around.
"Anything?" Naru questioned.
"Nothing yet," Lin said.
I sighed and moved my head back and forth. I was told not to move from my spot for unknown reasons. Monk and John were gone, just leaving me with Naru and Lin.
Pretty soon, just as I was beginning to think nothing was going to happen, the door suddenly burst open.
"Naru!" It was Monk, and he looked like he had just seen a ghost. I know how weird that sounds since we deal with ghosts and stuff, but his face was pretty pale from the looks.
"What is it?" Naru said, turning around.
"Something's happened!" John said from right behind Monk.
I looked at Naru to see his eyes narrowed. He was quickly out the door with Monk and John, with me and Lin following behind.
"Oh my…" I began. I covered my mouth at the sight. The room we were currently looking at was Noritoshi's crib room, and it was trashed. The wall paper on the walls was coming off as if something with big claws tore it. All the things on the shelves were on the floor and all the clothes from the dresser with scattered with the drawers falling out. The only thing untouched was the crib Noritoshi slept in.
Melissa had quickly walked over to the crib and took Noritoshi in her arms, who was crying nonstop. As Naru ordered, she went to another room where Monk would look over everyone.
"It's like the whole room was trashed except the dolls," I said, looking at the dolls that were still on the shelves and everywhere.
"Quite odd…" Naru muttered. After looking around he turned back to me and John. "This room is off limits to everyone understood?"
"Right," John and I said, nodding. Naru then left without another word.
Why do I get the feeling all hell is about to break loose? I thought as I slowly followed John back to base.
Sorry it's short guys, I didn't really feel like writing this, but I did it anyway. I do hope it was an alright chapter. Sorry if it wasn't, I'm sick, don't feel like doing much. Anyway, thanks for reading! Comments are welcomed.
