Qi Ben Li Xiang stayed in Panxing Palace.
Okkotsu was too worried that she would not be able to get used to living alone, so he stayed in Pansei Palace with Rika for one night, but it was obvious that Okkotsu was worrying too much.
Rika Nobimoto is a very strong child and has strong adaptability. Instead, it is Okkotsu Yuta who can't get used to living in Bandei Palace. Even Okkotsu's mother sleeps better than Okkotsu Yuta himself.
Otsutsuki Yuta: “…”
It's embarrassing for Mom and Riko.
But...but...but...there are ghosts in Panxing Palace! There are strange ghosts patrolling around 24 hours a day! At night, the number of ghosts far exceeds the number of people!
With dark circles under his eyes, he left awkwardly amid Gojo Satoru's laughter, but he still made an appointment with Rika Kimoto to come again next week.
The next day, Nanako and Mimiko were instructed by the adults to go play with Rika Kimoto. After Rika Kimoto learned that Nanako and Mimiko were also children rescued by Al and the others, she began to open up a little, and within a few days, the children became very familiar with each other.
In the morning, they lined up to get their hair done at Geto-chan's place, and then they all occupied the children's table to eat. Everyone had to drink a large glass of milk. Oh, besides them, Tenuchi Riko also had to drink milk.
After that, they can watch cartoons together, or go to the Pansei Shop to help Yagi Rikyu. Rika Kimoto is a smart little adult, and a better salesperson than Nanako, Mimiko, and even Yagi Rikyu. When she meets an adult who says she is cute, she will give a sweet smile and take the opportunity to recommend an extra cheap item.
Although it is cheap, you can make small profits but sell in large quantities!
Yagi Rikyu: “…”
This little girl is obviously a talent, and is more suitable to be a store manager than him! It is simply her destiny to come to Panxing Sect!
Anyway, when Al, who was in charge of running the online store, came down to pick up the express delivery, he saw that the physical store was very lively. The girls were chatting and laughing with customers of all ages. They had also carefully wrapped the small items to be sent out and put careful labels on them, waiting for Al to pick them up.
Later, Al secretly complained to Geto: "Geto, does this count as employing child labor?"
Xia Yujie laughed and said, "If you don't get paid, how can you be considered a hired servant?"
Al: “…”
That makes sense. From now on, I can order the children around with a clear conscience since they won’t be paid anyway.
In short, the little girls would help the adults in the morning, and the adults who were free would teach them the techniques in the afternoon. When the adults were really busy, they would read books in the library by themselves.
Nanako and Mimiko are sorcerers, so they need to be taught by sorcerers, but Rika Inori is a psychic with a special physique, so the person who teaches her skills becomes Makoto Higa.
Rika Kimoto quickly fell in love with Makoto Higa's room.
Higa Makoto's room is filled with all kinds of mysterious things such as tarot cards, crystal balls, dice, and many expensive decorations used specifically to create an atmosphere. In order to match Higa Makoto's rainbow hairstyle, these decorations are selected in beautiful and mysterious styles, and there are very few old-fashioned ones. Even the curtains at the entrance are shiny pink, which makes Qi Benlixiang extremely envious.
She picked out a pair of "God-given" wedding rings from the Panxing Shop and said to Makoto Higa, "Makoto-sister, can you bless my rings? I want one for Yuta and one for me."
Higa Makoto agreed, but she still told the truth: "Urika, I only know how to chant some spells for blessing. In fact, saying that it has a blessing effect is just a lie to customers."
Qi Ben Lixiang chuckled.
"I know, but I still have to go through the process."
Just like the "love" and "loyalty" in the wedding vows, no matter how beautifully you say them at the wedding, people who are bound to cheat will still cheat, and people who are bound to divorce will still divorce. But even so, you still have to say some beautiful vows on the wedding day to move yourself.
Higa Makoto: “…”
This child is really the type who is sober at such a young age! He will definitely be an incredible talent when he grows up!
With mixed feelings, she blessed the ring and tried her best to teach Qi Benlixiang some basic knowledge.
A week later, on the weekend, Otsutsuki Yuta came to the Bankeigu Shrine again to visit Rika Inorimoto. Rika Inorimoto gave him the ring and said to him, "Yuta, it's a promise. We will get married in the future."
"Um!"
Okkotsu Yuta put on the ring, not realizing how big a promise it was. He just couldn't wait to share his good news with Riko.
"Rika, Mom said I can transfer to Tokyo next year."
Qi Benlixiang's eyes lit up and she asked in surprise, "Really?"
"Well, it seems that Dad's company has this opportunity, and Dad has already applied for a transfer to Tokyo. He said that he has always wanted to live in Tokyo, but he has never made up his mind... Anyway, our family will move to Tokyo in the spring of next year, and it will be more convenient for him to visit you then."
"Great! Yuta!"
Nobuharu Rika hugged Okkotsu Yuta tightly.
"I like Yuta the most, so I want to go to the same school with Yuta next year!"
"Can Rika go to school too?"
"Of course! When the age comes next year, Nanako and Mimiko and I will both go to school."
Okkotsu was too relieved.
"That's great. The people of Panxing Cult are all very nice."
They raise orphan children for free and send them to school. It turns out that everyone taught by Panxing is a good person.
After he finished his sigh, he thought about it seriously, and said seriously: "Then I have to choose a school that is closest to Bankei Palace. It would be best if I can take the bus across from Bankei Church to get there directly."
Panxing School is far away from the city, with only a bus stop opposite. If we choose a place too far away, it will be very inconvenient for Rixiang and her friends to go to school.
He made up his mind: "Well, I will discuss this matter with my parents."
After some time, the results of the investigation on the cabin came out.
There is a social group in Japan called "Pray for the Return of Old Friends". Just as the name of the group suggests, the group owner and administrator claim to be the reincarnation of gods. They specialize in leading group members to study how to resurrect the dead. They also shouted the slogan "Once the experiment is successful, we will gain eternal life."
After Rixiang's mother passed away, Rixiang's father began to fear death and couldn't sleep or eat all day. Later, by chance, he joined this group and was soon brainwashed by the group leader. He decided to rely on their power to "defeat death" and spent a year seriously studying how to resurrect his deceased wife.
From this perspective, it is not necessarily true that he loved his deceased wife very much.
In short, the cabin where the accident happened was one of the offline bases of the "Pray for the Return of Old Friends" group. Before lending the cabin to Rixiang's father, the administrator came to clean it up once. Therefore, after Rixiang's father took over the cabin, there were no dead souls there for the time being.
Later, he planned to kill the fat man he knew in the food group, and also killed the woman and man who accidentally stepped into the cabin, and used their bodies to conduct experiments on resurrecting the dead. Only then did evil spirits begin to appear in the cabin.
As for the time-space device, although there is no definite evidence, everyone agrees that it was also given to Qiben's father by the administrator of "Pray for the Return of Old Friends".
Otherwise, where could an ordinary person like Qi Ben's father get such a rare thing?
Let's not talk about the Retrograde Army, but each of the Time Government's space-time devices has a unique number, and they must be collected after the Inquisitor resigns. They are managed more strictly than guns.
Al was interested and asked, "This cult sounds even more evil than our Panxing Cult. So what happened to them? Were they dealt with?"
Xia Yujie shook his head. "The group was disbanded. The group owner and administrators ran away very quickly. The police and the government of the time also failed to catch them. This shows that they are very cunning and spread information very quickly."
He smiled and said, "They ran away so quickly, there must be a traitor."
Either there is a mole in the police force, or there is a mole in the government of the time.
But combined with the barrier they had set up in the cabin, they were more inclined towards the latter.
Gojo Satoru threw the printed booklet to Al: "Al, take a look at this, this is the chat record of the "Praying for the Return of Old Friends" group in the past month. The comments above can be called the Bible of brainwashing in cults. We, the Pansei Cult, should all learn from it."
Al: “HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”
Xia Yujie couldn't help laughing.
Yes, although they often claim to be liars and a cult, they are still too green compared to the real veterans. If they didn't have real skills to back them up, this Panxing Palace might not have become so big.
And ever since the broadcast of "Paranormal Activity 2", there have been many more young people in the Panxing Church. This feeling is... very subtle.
Because people don't necessarily join the Panxing religion just because they believe in them.
"One more thing." Xia Yujie said, "I contacted Fushiguro Shier, and he said he would come over this afternoon."
Al tilted his head: "Huh? So soon? Are you bringing the child here?"
"No, the children will take over after the Chinese New Year. Tomorrow we will just sign the employee contract and discuss salary and other matters."
He said worriedly, "That means we have five children now, almost as many as the adults."
Al was surprised: "...So many?"
"Um."
No matter how many there are, it is absolutely impossible to abandon them, so we still have to think of a solution.
Gojo Satoru said, "Then hire more people. Where will Yuta's father work next year? If it's not far, ask Yuta's mother if she wants to work part-time."
Xia Yujie: “…”
Xia Yujie was moved and said, "Isn't this a bit bad?"
Gojo Satoru saw his true reaction and rolled his eyes: "Just ask, don't rush to refuse for others."
"And Zhisha." Al also suggested: "Zhisha will have to start school in two years, right? If we want to educate her, it would be best for her to go to school in Tokyo. If they want to move, we can ask Chanel's mother."
Xia Yujie: “…”
Xia Yujie was very excited and said, "Isn't it a bit too rude? Besides, wives may not be willing to take care of children, especially Mrs. Chanel..."
"No need to bring them." Gojo Satoru said, "Have you forgotten? All the kids will go to school next year. At most, I will just pick them up and drop them off, and do some housework. Even if they stay at home on weekends, there are five kids. Come on, five whole kids. They can form a team and fight together."
"..." Xia Yujie paused, "You're right, I will ask the ladies."
Although it was a bit abrupt, the Panxing Cult was really short of people right now. Kuroi Misato wished that the washing machine could become a spirit so that she could wash, spin, and hang clothes all by herself.
In fact, to be honest, Kong Shiyu recommended many people to them during this period, but they were all rejected in the end.
In response, Kong Shiyu said he had never seen such a difficult customer.
Al whispered, "Jack, if you think about it carefully, there are actually more than five children in Panxing Sect."
"Um?"
"Think about it, Nanako, Mimiko, Saeka, Tsumei, and Hui are indeed children, but Go-chan and Riko-chan are also childish, playing games and tearing hair every day. And to be honest, I often feel that Go-chan and Riko-chan are not as sensible as Nana and Mimi. Yes, yes, it's really wrong."
Xia Yujie: “…”
Indeed.
Xia Yujie said solemnly: "But Al."
"Um?"
"You have no right to criticize others."
Al: “…”
What qualifications does a guy who injects chocolate syrup into other people's cursed spirit balls and directly destroys the high-value cursed spirit "Imaginary Kaguya-hime" have to criticize others? !
Al didn't think so. He said sadly, "Me? What's wrong with me? I can run an online store, do customer service, and recently I'm working on the official website of the Panxing Cult. I'm obviously - I'm a hundred times more useful than them!"
He became excited as if someone had suddenly stepped on his sore spot. "A few days ago, someone gave the store a bad review, saying that the beads were not as big as he imagined, but I had clearly indicated the size in the details. Damn it, if I wasn't afraid of causing trouble for you, I would have burned him to death along the Internet cable!!!"
Xia Yujie: “…”
Gojo Satoru: “…”
Online shopping is risky, and bad reviews are even riskier. Because you never know whether the customer service representative on the other end of the line is a human or a snake, and whether he or she can spit fire.
Gojo Satoru and Geto Kagome looked at each other and said honestly, "...it's still commendable that they didn't burn the customer to death."
That afternoon, Fushiguro arrived as promised and visited the Bandei Cult once again.
Although the weather has started to get colder, he still wears a thin tights to show off his toned body, as if he is completely unaware of the change in weather.
He sat down on the sofa, flipped through the contract, and signed it readily.
The contract is normal, the same as Lalu, Oosaka Kimiko and Higa Makoto's.
Xia Yujie said, "You and the children will live on the third floor. There are many empty rooms on the third floor. You can pick the room you like. But there is one more thing. We don't care how you fool around outside, but you are not allowed to bring outsiders into the Panxing Church. It will have a bad influence."
He said it rather tactfully, but Fushiguro Shier still understood it. The ritual killer nodded and said readily, "Of course."
In the future, Hui and Jin Meiji will also live in Panxing Palace, and he will certainly not bring women into Panxing Palace.
"That's good. I heard that Tsumiki seems to have started school?"
"Ah. But she agreed to transfer to a school nearby. Hui will also be enrolled next year, so we can go to the same new school as her."
This time when they met, the tense atmosphere between them was obviously less tense, and everyone's attitude was very calm.
Gojo Satoru was still sitting nearby, playing Snake with his head down in boredom. Al was still standing behind Geto Suguru, just like last time, staring at Fushiguro Shinjiro motionlessly.
Fushiguro Shirou didn't care about his subtle hostility.
Xia Yujie asked, "How about Teitan Elementary School? Teitan Elementary School is in Beika Town, which is the closest to us. If you take the bus, it takes about 40 minutes, but Bansei Church has a special car to pick you up, so it only takes about 20 minutes to get to school."
He flipped through the documents in his hand.
"Teitan Academy has excellent teachers, a good school environment, and very reasonable tuition. Compared to other schools, there is less negative news. After finishing elementary school, students can go directly to junior high school and high school, which is very convenient. Even if children don't like studying, it is still no problem for them to finish high school."
Since he had no experience discussing children with other people, Fushiguro Shiji pursed his face and said indifferently, "Oh, whatever you want."
Xia Yujie: “…”
Al put his ear close to Xia Yujie's and whispered, "Jie-chan, is it true that he didn't pick up his child?"
Xia Yujie said: "...Although I also doubt this, this kind of guy would never pick up other people's children."
Fushiguro Shiji burst out laughing.
"It doesn't matter where you go to school, kids, as long as you're alive."
The guys across from him immediately gave him a look that said he was a scumbag.
Having said that, Fushiguro Shigeki is actually still very relieved.
According to Kong Shiyu, most of the core members of the Panxing Cult are draggers, and they don't accept new members easily because they are afraid that the draggers within will be harmed by cursers of unknown origin. Even so, the leading guys still insist on bringing draggers of all sizes along with them.
Very silly, but also very emotional.
If you want to entrust Kei and Tsumiki to outsiders, then this is a good place to go. Even if you have a grudge against him, he will never vent his anger on the little ghosts.
——Luckily I didn’t succeed in killing him last time, otherwise I would have lost an excellent nursery.
"But there is one thing I must tell you in advance."
Gojo Satoru had just finished a game and raised his head when he heard this.
Fushiguro said, "I sold Hui to the Zenin family, but now I don't plan to let him go to the Zenin family."
Al tilted his head and asked with interest, "Sold? How much did you sell?"
Fushiguro Shier stretched out his hand and gestured a number: "This number."
Xia Yujie was silent for a moment, then asked, "Can I ask about the unit?"
"100 million."
100 million???
Xia Yujie twitched his lips and said, "Then return the money to them."
"it took."
it took???
Gojo Satoru understood: "So that's how it is. I was wondering why you still wanted to send your child here. It turns out you wanted to find a sucker to take care of the Zenin family for you."
Fushiguro Shier said without any guilt: "Anyway, I have already spent all the money, and I don't intend to hand over the child. As for paying back the money? Sorry, no, there is no reason to return the money that has entered my pocket."
Al secretly complained to Geto: "Geto, this guy is just a scoundrel. Now the debt collectors will come and bother us directly, right?"
Xia Yujie: “…”
Fushiguro Shigeki asked provocatively, "Why? A double-special-class person would also be afraid of the Zenin family?"
Before Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru said anything, Al chuckled and said sarcastically, "Isn't a certain ritual killer who dared to fight against a double special-class master also afraid of the Zenin family? If I remember correctly, your last name was Zenin, Zenin Shinji-kun."
Fushiguro grinned.
"My last name is no longer Zenin."
When he mentioned the Zenyuan family, his tone seemed to carry a kind of fatigue that could not be further understood. Before the Panxing Cult members could say anything more, Zenyuan Shener said, "I have seen a special-grade cursed spirit before, but I ignored it at that time because I thought it was troublesome. If you can solve the problem of the Zenyuan family, I will capture that special-grade spirit and give it to you."
Fushiguro Shiori pretended to be casual and said, "Kayuki Kagome, how many special grade cursed spirits have you collected? You are still far from having a complete illustrated manual."
Crazy and excited Xia Yujie: "..."
Just as he was about to open his mouth, Al and Gojo Satoru pressed down on Geto's shoulders, one on each side, to prevent him from letting go so easily.
Gojo Satoru said unhappily, "Huh? That's it? Just a special-grade cursed spirit, don't tell me I'm in need of one?"
Fushiguro said, "There are some abroad as well. If you need them, I can introduce you to an agent abroad. Also, you took all my cursed tools away before. Actually, there is a powerful cursed tool abroad that can rival Amagakiboro."
Gojo Satoru paused slightly.
Is this true or false?
If such a thing really exists, it must either be destroyed or made their own.
Having secured one more special grade, Fushiguro Shigeu turned to look at Al.
"You are a high-level cursed spirit? Not bad, the most beautiful cursed spirit I have ever seen in my life, dragon, right?"
Al subtly suppressed his hostility and said affirmatively: "...Yes, I am a dragon."
Gojo Satoru & Kayuki Kagome: "..."
Super coaxing snake!!!
Ten minutes later, Fushiguro threw the contract into the room given to him by Bansei Teng, and left Bansei Palace in a leisurely manner.
After walking some distance from the Panxing Palace, he made a phone call.
Ten seconds later, the phone was answered.
"Fushiguro, huh?"
Fushiguro Shiori stretched lazily.
"I formally reject the commission you asked me to consider earlier."
The man on the other side was silent for a while, then asked curiously, "Why? With these three billion, you can pay for your son's prostitution."
"No need." Fushiguro turned his neck and said impatiently, "Use 3 billion to destroy the Panxing Sect? Please forgive me. I don't want to go to the countryside and eat instant noodles for half a year, and be sexually harassed by ugly female ghosts every day. Don't bother me with their commissions in the future."
“…”
The other party was silent for a while and hung up the phone.
Fushiguro Shigeji chuckled disdainfully and got on the bus opposite the Bandei Cult.
In the countryside where you can't even get a taxi, tsk.
Shortly after Fushiguro Shigeu left, Al suddenly heard a message from the system.
"Congratulations, host. You have successfully changed the fate of the character Fushiguro Shiori from Jujutsu ○ War. The mission is 2/10 complete. Please keep up the good work, host!"
Al: “…Hmm?”
Just now——what happened?
