Chapter 19: A Thousand Miles to Summon the Soul Just for Fate
Suzuki...
By the time he finished these few short syllables of exclamation, Deba Jingji had already put away the idea of confessing his abnormality to her. The eye that was exposed narrowed just right, and with a gentle and trustworthy smile, he silently concealed the surprise in that moment.
"So," the demon exorcist calmly pulled his sleeve out of her hand and repeated his sigh meaninglessly, "This is really a serious problem."
Suzuki Sonoko stood there in a daze, feeling that something subtle about the master had suddenly changed.
"As for how to solve it..."
Deiba Jingji looked at her confused expression and raised the corners of his mouth meaningfully.
When he spoke, Sonoko indeed sensed a sense of distance that was completely different from before, but without knowing the inner drama of the boss before, she just analyzed it briefly based on her experience and came to a seemingly credible conclusion.
It seems that the order has been completed. In order to intimidate a mortal like her who is obsessed with money, the master is probably going to start showing off!
So she swallowed her saliva expectantly and stared closely at the master's eyes covered by the talisman.
——To hide it so carefully, he must have some powerful magical powers, right?
For example, Sharingan, Samsara Eye, etc...
etc.
Suzuki Sonoko touched her chin. These words that suddenly popped up were so profound. She could barely guess the meaning of the Rinnegan from the literal meaning. What was the purpose of this Sharingan?
However, she was worried for only a few seconds before she easily gave up and continued to make things difficult for herself: the most important thing now is to solve the problem of being unlucky, as there are three middle-aged and elderly people in their family who are still waiting to successfully marry into the family!
Dechang Jingsi took the teacup at hand and gently touched his lips.
Although she can no longer be a radish in her own garden, she is still a cute little bird.
Dechang Jingsi suddenly discovered that the girl's eyes were unexpectedly lethal, and were filled with pure expectation in her frankness.
Although he was still single, after being stared at by her expectantly for a while, he seemed to suddenly understand the feelings of those parents who boasted in front of their children and then tried to make up for it with gritted teeth afterwards.
——If you are being looked forward to wholeheartedly by such a pair of bright eyes, there is no way you can do anything to disappoint her.
He had planned to cheat her out of the matter, but the demon hunter was finally defeated by her: Forget it, just treat it as an ordinary business of getting money to help others get rid of disasters.
He sighed silently, and under the other person's gleaming gaze, he pulled out another business card from his pocket and said, "I don't see the problem you're talking about. If I can't see it, then most people certainly can't see it either. It's hard to say how to solve it specifically. Go find this place according to the address. They're good at solving these problems."
No, actually they are the ones who can see what's wrong with you.
This is the second piece of colored card paper called a business card that Sonoko received today. However, unlike the one on Dechang, the background of this business card is a deep mountain, and the silhouette of a young girl is vaguely photoshopped on the left side.
Yuanzi finally held the business card in his palm and hesitated for a moment whether to change people.
She unconsciously tugged at the master's sleeve again and cautiously asked, "But master, didn't you say before...that something was wrong with me?"
Despite being exposed for the contradiction in his words, Deba Shizuka showed no sign of embarrassment. He smiled naturally and replied, "I can see some clues by analogy, but the focus of practice is different."
——He concealed his predicament without any guilt that he actually didn't notice anything unusual and was just trying to kidnap someone.
Yuanzi compared the two business cards for a long time, but she still couldn't figure out how the master and his colleagues divided the professions. However, she cooperated and pretended to understand, and said "Oh" seriously.
Suzuki Sonoko held the business card and felt that there was finally a glimmer of hope in her bleak blind date journey. She carefully put the business card in her pocket and enthusiastically prepared to see her savior out.
As soon as Shizuka Deba stood up, Sonoko had already taken his coat from the hanger by the door and was holding it in both hands ready.
The demon hunter was silent for a long time under her bright and scorching gaze, and finally raised his arms as if giving up.
He thought the girl was going to help him put on his jacket, but when she casually draped the suit jacket over his shoulders in a serious manner, Shizue Deba suddenly realized: this silly girl's surname is Suzuki, and she probably has never learned how to put sleeves on people's clothes.
Before he could finish hesitating about whether to take off the clothes on his shoulders and put them on again, Miss Suzuki had already pushed open the door of the box, put one hand in front of her, and politely made a gesture to invite him to leave.
Then she continued to stare at Shizuka Chang with that pressure-inducing, sparkling look.
——Master, look, I have opened the door for you!
Deba Jingji was amused by her behavior. After watching her for three full minutes, he finally acquiesced to her behavior.
Before leaving, Miss Suzuki happily shouted "Goodbye, Master", which made the exorcist subconsciously reach out and pat her on the head again.
By the time Xiaolan, the store manager and the security guard found the private room where Sonoko was, Miss Suzuki Sonoko, who was drunk, had fallen asleep holding the business card.
The next morning, Suzuki Sonoko was sitting in the restaurant drinking porridge with a pale face. On the table not far in front of her was the colorful business card.
When I was complaining about the King of Gold before, I mentioned that the Suzuki family has always believed in science. Although they also go to shrines, it is mostly based on traditional customs or habits formed after Shintoism was integrated into their lives.
The ones that people actually worship are traditional gods such as Oomikami and the Seven Lucky Gods.
In fact, given that Ms. Tomoko Suzuki lived abroad for most of her youth, she remembered that there was a God of Wealth among the Seven Lucky Gods of Japan - because the Suzuki family was in business, she half understood it and just picked this one.
Therefore, President Shiro Suzuki, who is not superstitious at all, focused his initial conversation with his daughter on teaching Sonoko how dare she get drunk outside and run around, causing Ran to work hard to check the surveillance footage to find her.
Because he looked a little serious, Suzuki Tomoko poked him several times with her elbow.
After Suzuki Sonoko sobered up, she remembered nothing about the master except the general impression that he was good-looking and had a nice voice.
So in her retelling, the master who was like fog, rain and wind only appeared with one line from beginning to end.
——"You can't find a son-in-law because there are problems around you."
But when Suzuki Shiro heard about such a master, the stereotyped coffin face of Changlu Dajue from the Golden Kingdom emerged in his mind.
Before being killed by the Golden King, the Kunitsune family was also a well-known Onmyoji family. Suzuki Shiro absolutely did not believe this at first, but Onmyoji was not trustworthy, but the Golden King with a sword on his head was indeed trustworthy.
And the King of Gold once said: Your daughter will never get married.
He didn't know what the master did, but the emergence of such a master at present at least proved that what the old man Huang Jin said at that time was not just a curse on their family out of boredom.
So this weekend, the sixth blind date plan that was originally scheduled to begin was temporarily shelved, and Suzuki Sonoko, accompanied by Mori Ran, spent a weekend in Aomori Prefecture.
Mount Osore is one of the three major sacred sites in Aomori. According to legend, it is the place connecting the human world and the underworld. Suzuki Sonoko's early impression of Mount Osore mostly came from TV dramas and movies.
The specialty of the necromancer is to summon spirits, including various gods, Buddhas, ghosts, flowers, plants and trees. With this, they can get answers to many unknowable things.
The special thing about Mount Osore is that only the necromancers here can be called Ichiko, and Ichiko is a traditionally recognized term for beautiful women in Japan.
In fact, Sonoko did not meet any beautiful women in Mount Osore.
After taking the business card, the person who came out from the mist to greet her was an old woman with wrinkles curled up in a ball. After resting for a while, the person who officially took over the job to help her summon the gods was a little girl.
Although the little girl was pretty, Yuanzi tried hard to confirm several times but couldn't tell that the little girl in front of her was an elementary school student or a junior high school student.
——After all, there is only a one-year difference between the sixth grade of elementary school and the first grade of junior high school!
"What does that look of yours mean?"
Yuanzi was taken aback by the sudden cold voice, then blinked and replied naturally, "You look beautiful."
Anna Osorizan paused while packing her things.
Then, the customer lady sighed to herself: "But you look too small..."
Anna Osorizan is generally not a sharp-tongued person, but she has a little hobby of ordering people around. If some ignorant person says something inexplicable before the ceremony begins, although she will not do anything directly, she can still add some complicated steps during the ceremony to bother the customers.
But when she met the customer's eyes, she suddenly discovered something unexpected: the lady was really shocked by her young age.
Compared to the attitude of most people before, "How can you be a mayor at such a young age?", her look of shock mixed with curiosity was more like pure admiration, "How amazing that you can be a mayor at such a young age!"
Anna Osoruyama was silent for a moment before she finally opened her mouth to explain, "It was Shiraishi who was in charge of these things before, not me. She ran off with Akifune of the Hanakaiin family a while ago, so I'm just filling in for a while."
In this short sentence, there are at least three words that Yuanzi doesn't understand.
But she was used to putting on airs, so even though she didn't know whether "Qiu Fang" was a character's name or a directional adverb, she still put on a standard (slightly exaggerated) shocked face as if she had heard some huge gossip, and nodded thoughtfully.
A quarter of an hour later, the ceremony officially began.
Shizi's ritual of summoning spirits is simply to invite ghosts and gods to possess her body. Although Anna Gongshan herself is not good at divination, she can find "something" that she knows.
Suzuki Sonoko sat quietly on the cattail mat, and for a long time she didn't notice any unusual special effects behind the little girl. When Anna Osorezan opened her eyes again, the girl reached out and tapped the table in front of her, indicating that she could ask whatever she wanted.
After much hesitation, Yuanzi decided to ask a question to pave the way.
"Why did my fiancé's brother run away from home?"
The rosary in front of Anna moved slightly. Sonoko didn't notice the change at all, but she suddenly spoke and made a conclusion.
"It's fate."
"What do you mean?"
Anna glanced at her and said nothing.
Yuanzi remembered the rules that the old lady who brought her in had told her: it doesn't matter whether the invited spirits are good or bad. Just because these things are respectful to Shizi doesn't mean they won't cause trouble in the future. If you want to ask questions, just think of that person in your mind and tell him the clues related to him, but don't say the exact name.
For some not-so-good things, knowing their names is equivalent to being able to kill them.
Sonoko then asked, "Why did my fiancé's father die suddenly?"
There were still no special effects in the room. Anna said calmly, "It's fate."
"That sect..."
Suzuki Sonoko breathed a sigh of relief, remembering what the old lady who led the way had said, and she omitted the exact name of the person: "Why did the plane my fiancé was on... crash?"
Anna Osorizan was silent for an unusually long time this time. She stared at the garden in curiosity for a long time, probably because she had never seen such a miserable fiancé. Then she turned her head and looked up into the air.
Sonoko's eyes followed her, but she still didn't see any special effects.
The last answer of "that thing" obviously made Anna stunned. She turned her gaze to Sonoko again and told her: "It's fate."
——So what does this sentence mean?
Yuanzi thought to herself, this answer is about Diu Ge’s dead father crashing the plane...it has nothing to do with her, right?
How could it be such a coincidence?!
Thinking of this, she was already a little irritated and asked loudly again: "Then when will I be able to recruit a satisfactory legal worker who is willing to marry into my family sincerely?"
The old lady who taught her the ritual also told her
But since she was asking a spirit to tell the fortune, she would give a deadline.
She has been stuck on this mess for several years now. The results of the divination, if accurate, can be delayed for three to five days, and even if it is not accurate, at least it can be given a year.
If it's possible before she turns 20, she'll give it a try!
Anna Osorizan looked at her expressionlessly for a long time. The little girl moved her lips slightly, and Sonoko's heart began to lift.
She said: "Three questions at a time, and if you ask again, you will be charged extra."
The author has something to say: All the "fate" are original plots.
The specific reason will be revealed in the next chapter:-D
In the original plot, Ximen ran away, in the original plot, Jinguji Ren's father died, and in the original plot, the director crashed the plane and then awakened.
These have nothing to do with Yuanzi, she is not worthy of anyone!
In this article, Bai Shi and Hanakaiin Akifusa are purely in a superior-subordinate relationship, without any arrows.
In the next chapter, Anna is going to cheat people...
