On Mount Fuji, Inspector Megure led a team of police officers to block off the Sengen Shrine. Looking at the pool of blood and corpses, Inspector Megure let out a long sigh.
He had just dealt with the follow-up events of the Asada Shrine and had returned to Sakura City to report less than a day before he was sent to the Sengen Shrine to handle matters.
Coincidentally, everything seems to be related to an Onmyoji.
Asada Shrine, Sengen Shrine...Do Onmyoji only focus on shrines that begin with the word "Asada"?
When Inspector Megure thought of this and looked at the disemboweled corpse, he couldn't help feeling a little nauseous. He ordered the police officers who followed him to Sakura City and signed a confidentiality agreement to seal off the place, and then he went straight to the Sengen Shrine.
This time is different from last time.
The last eyewitness, Daisuke Asada, didn't see much, but this time he was face to face.
"Hello, Mr. Asama. I am Inspector Megure Juju of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Sakura Metropolitan Police Department. I am in charge of the investigation of this case."
Officer Megure looked at the old priest lying on the tatami and groaning. He coughed lightly and said, "I want to know something about that Onmyoji."
Although the high school students have been consulted as usual, and they have also described the process of the Onmyoji's exorcism, the cause and effect are still unclear. If we really want to understand the essence of the problem, we need to consult the priests and maidens of the Sengen Shrine.
"Lord Kyogoku Qiong has instructed me to notify you to handle the matter."
The old priest was lying on the tatami, already somewhat exhausted: "I will naturally do my best to cooperate, just ask if you have any questions."
Seeing that the old priest had become so haggard, Officer Megure did not have the heart to disturb him any further and said immediately, "Sir, the accompanying doctor has arrived. We should treat your condition first. You can also ask other priests and shrine maidens in the shrine about the problem."
Seeing that there was no need for him to intervene, the old priest nodded and continued to hum while lying on the bed.
Also happy to have some free time.
Inspector Megure and his subordinate, Officer Mori, walked towards the rooms of other priests and shrine maidens: because of the case, everyone was isolated.
"Hello, Miss Nanako. I'm sure you know our identities. Could you please repeat everything that happened today?"
"Mr. Kenjiro, we are..."
This matter was extremely serious and the entire official department attached great importance to it. As the most direct person in charge, Inspector Megure was also extremely nervous and even used the "prisoner's dilemma" on eyewitnesses in order to obtain extremely accurate information.
Why is it so important?
In an era of technological advancement, if suddenly one day a skeleton appears, and the next night a so-called evil spirit appears... no matter which country it is, it will take it seriously.
In particular, there is also the figure of an Onmyoji mixed in.
What is the identity of this Onmyoji, where does he come from, and what is his purpose?
Is he really out to slay demons? What if he is the culprit behind everything?
These are things they need to consider carefully and not jump to conclusions based on one-sided information.
Even if this Onmyoji is a good man with a sense of justice, what if his extraordinary abilities get out of control?
Everyone longs for Superman, because everyone knows that Superman is fictional and only exists in movies and TV shows.
When a true superman appears in front of everyone and has the power to control life and death, it will only cause panic.
Therefore, the Neon government does not want to reveal anything about ghosts and Onmyoji to the public before reaching a cooperation with this Onmyoji.
In order to let as few people know about it as possible, the only ones directly involved in the operation were Officer Megure and his team, who were the first to encounter such an incident.
Others only know that they are carrying out a mission, but they don’t know what kind of mission they are carrying out.
......
At the foot of Mount Fuji, Li Jing sat in front of a late-night pub at the end of the street, ordered some Wagyu beef, and watched with interest the fully armed police officers coming and going.
As the source of everything, Li Jing certainly knew what these police officers were doing.
After finishing reading, he slowly raised the black jade pendant engraved with mysterious runes in his hand. He became more and more satisfied with this little thing.
The young man named Gutian was just bewildered by evil spirits and became extremely cruel. He was not a ghost or anything like that.
However, the reason why Furuta became like that was probably because he had direct contact with ghosts.
Otherwise, the ghost energy will not enter the body.
The ghost energy destroyed his body, and when Li Jing's black jade pendant absorbed the ghost energy, Gu Tian naturally died on the spot without any room for recovery.
Of course, Gutian’s life or death has nothing to do with Li Jing. What has to do with Li Jing is that wisp of ghost spirit.
After the ghost energy was absorbed by the jade pendant, it actually transformed into spiritual energy and fed back to Li Jing, which improved Li Jing's cultivation a little!
"Although the spiritual energy revival is gone, I may have a new way." Looking at the black jade pendant, Li Jing raised a smile.
As for the previously planned Emperor Berries...it's no longer possible. The reason why the Emperor Berries appeared in the previous life was because of the volcanic eruption caused by the revival of spiritual energy. Now the volcano has no reaction at all, so it is impossible for the Emperor Berries to appear in the world.
After Li Jing entered the Qin state of mind, he could go to the crater of Mount Fuji to see if there were any traces of the Emperor Berry.
"My alias of Kyogoku Qiong is the most useful one for me right now. The identity of a Tsuchimikado Shinto disciple can save me a lot of trouble."
"The ghost in Shinjuku that affected Furuta was an opportunity to greatly improve its strength. It intervened as Tsuchimikado Shinto and fabricated a plot to temporarily confuse the Japanese and prevent them from acting rashly."
No matter what, he had to confirm his identity as the successor of Kyogoku Nyouto Gomon.
but...
I guess Kyogoku Qiong's identity has been confirmed now.
Those true disciples of Tsuchimikado Shinto do not have any special abilities, but 'Kyogoku Qiong' has extraordinary means.
Even if those guys in Tsuchimikado Shinto claim that Kyogoku Nobu is not the descendant of Tsuchimikado, it will be of no use. People will only think that the current Tsuchimikado Shinto is not the direct descendant, and the real direct descendant has long been in seclusion.
Otherwise, who can explain why others have extraordinary abilities and you don’t?
After slowly enjoying the Wagyu beef, Li Jing slowly stood up, paid the bill, and slowly walked towards the dark alley, eventually disappearing at the end of the darkness.
He now has to return to Shinjuku District to find ghosts and monsters that meet the jade pendant's absorption standards as soon as possible so that he can break through the shackles of his realm more quickly.
