Chapter 6



It is Fukuzawa Yukichi's mission to protect the safety of the police officers and priests. Of course, the most important thing is to protect the safety of the priests. This child who seems to have a lot of stories may be a difficult target, but it is not what he needs to pay attention to at this moment.

Seeing that the police officer's crisis was resolved, he was about to return to his post, but he suddenly heard the blond boy ask righteously.

[Wow! A walking ten thousand dollar bill!]

[It’s Fukuzawa Yukichi from the Armed Detective Agency!]

[It's reasonable to suspect that something big is going on here. Even Silver Wolf is here. I remember that his swordsmanship is super cool!]

[There is also a priest. I guess it is another supernatural event. So exciting.]

[No one is surprised, the little boy is not familiar with the silver wolf, could it be a new force?]

[New force! Wow, will there be new handsome guys? This new organization should all be very good-looking (I’m sure)]

[Maybe it's a personal power? There are many people who work alone, although this one looks very young]

[So cute]

While Fukuzawa Yukichi and the priest were observing him, the young king was also observing their conversations with the bullet screen.

The silver-haired swordsman seemed to be very popular in the barrage, and he had already seen quite a few barrages about the swordsman.

Ignoring a few incomprehensible bullet points, Kaionji Suyou easily figured out that the swordsman's name was Fukuzawa Yukichi, who belonged to the Armed Detective Agency and seemed to have a nickname of "Silver Wolf". The priest not far away seemed to be able to see ghosts and gods, and was specifically responsible for handling such matters.

"Because the child shouldn't be here." Fukuzawa Yukichi looked down at the boy in front of him and said sternly.

But this answer was met with laughter from the boy.

“That’s a very decent answer indeed.”

The blond little king fiddled with the pendant on his chest absentmindedly, looking lazy and a little uninterested.

"Well, it turns out that the guys outside are boring."

The boy said this in a complaining tone, and then walked away in the direction the priest had just walked. Social etiquette and the unspoken rules among psychics did not seem to exist for him.

Fukuzawa Yukichi immediately spoke out to stop him, saying that the area inside was where the priests were investigating, and if this child disturbed the priests' ceremony, it might be difficult to catch the cunning and dangerous ghost.

What happened just now could be explained as the eccentric and different thinking of a genius, but the boy's current behavior was undoubtedly an offense, a violation of the first-come-first-served rule.

"This place has been taken over by the Special Ability Division." The silver-haired swordsman said concisely.

The blond boy is undoubtedly a psychic with powerful abilities, and the accident here is most likely related to ghosts and gods. As expected, the little king's purpose is for this ghost and god.

Normally, hunting ghosts and gods is a time-consuming and laborious task. Unless a psychic has received a commission or has an old grudge against a ghost or god, few psychics will take the initiative to attack ghosts and gods.

Even if the boy has the idea of ​​destroying ghosts and gods, it will be the same when the Special Ability Unit goes to destroy them.

At the same time, Fukuzawa Yukichi secretly did not want to let a child of this age come into contact with ghosts and gods that even the priests of Shinohara Hachiman Shrine found difficult.

That's too dangerous for the children.

However, to his surprise, the boy was unexpectedly stubborn and the word "doing his own thing" was fully reflected in him.

At this time, the priest's attitude towards the boy was particularly intriguing.

"Let him come over here."

The priest, whose face was completely hidden under the protective paper, said this, and there was even a hint of respect for Michel in his words.

Although he didn't understand where the priest's respect for him came from, he was the one with the most say here after all.

Michel Ende was happy to see that it would be easier to do things with such permission.

"The scene inside is probably not suitable for children to see." Fukuzawa Yukichi still insisted on his objection, not even backing down in front of the priest.

But the priest did not look at him. Instead, he stared at the young magician in fascination for a while, then turned to Fukuzawa Yukichi and said meaningfully:

"A child who can wear something like that probably won't be afraid of these things."

Although he was wearing a protective paper on his face, the priest's vision did not seem to be obstructed at all.

As an expert in this field, even though the priest still could not see through Michel Ender's abilities, he could not underestimate this child.

Because in the world of psychics, age is the most insignificant thing.

He did not dare to think any further about the words and patterns embroidered on the golden-haired child's collar, even though they were covered by the talisman paper.

The teachings from his teachers and books taught him not to explore secrets too much. It is not a good thing to have a head filled with things that do not belong to him and that he cannot understand.

Sometimes, knowing too much is a burden and a shackle, but it is also a signal, a flare that invites danger.

Those complex and gorgeous patterns were just strange to ordinary people, but they were fatal to the highly inspired priests. Fukuzawa Yukichi, who did not react much to such patterns, also made the priests pay a little attention.

With the priest giving the order, there would naturally be no one to stop them from following the priest and Fukuzawa Yukichi into the villa, so the magician's infiltration plan could be said to be unimpeded.

They said they were going to search the villa for clues, but in fact, it didn't take much effort and the missing Officer Tateda was found.

The first floor of the villa was relatively normal, except for the lock on the door, which made it difficult for the police to enter at first.

The windows on the second floor of the villa were all boarded up for some reason, and a thin layer of dust had accumulated on the thick curtains. It was obvious that they were always drawn, as if one could see something that the villa owner was afraid of from the second-floor windows.

All the lights in the villas are kept on. In addition to the simple lighting installed when the villas were renovated, many high-power strong light lamps are also installed, making the entire villa as bright as day.

The body of the villa's owner, Officer Tateda, was also discovered when the police entered.

The man who had tenderly taken care of Haiyin Temple and given him great support after his parents' death was lying quietly on the dining table in the living room, without breathing, with a sunken face, and it seemed that he had been dead for a long time.

The whites of the man's eyes had turned cloudy, his lifeless and empty eyes were staring at the ceiling, his hands were still tightly clenched, his expression was calm but made people feel inexplicably sad.

It was as if he had anticipated his own death, but he was still unwilling to give up before he died. Even though he knew that the one coming would be a difficult ghost or god, he made all preparations and gave it a try.

“So many lighting fixtures?”

Yamaguchi Daichi, who had just finished talking with Kaionji Suyou, immediately came to support the work here. He took a quick look around and couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing the lights and flashlights all over the room, the agent of the Special Ability Unit seemed to have some association and frowned.

But before this, the Special Ability Section had not discovered anything unusual, and the lights in the Tateda family seemed to have been on for many days in a row, which undoubtedly meant that something was playing tricks in the Tateda family and interfering with the perception of the outside world.

"Yes, as expected, this is the work of demons and gods." The priest's voice did not show his age, but he analyzed in a flat tone. When he was working, he seemed to have lost the warmth of a human being.

The young Wang, played by Haiyinsi Suyou, paid no attention to the conversation between the adults and just walked towards the dining table where the body of Officer Tateda was placed without looking away.

Everyone's attention was on the priest, and listening to the priest's analysis allowed Michelle to smoothly come to Officer Tateda's side.

The blond-haired, blue-eyed little king lowered his head with a solemn expression as he stood beside the man's body, not knowing what he was thinking about, as if he was silently mourning.

The silver-haired swordsman, the only one who noticed Michel Ende's action, clenched and unclenched his hand on the hilt of the sword as if he was thinking of something.

The body of Officer Tateda was well preserved, which seemed different from other cases of ghosts and spirits attacking humans.

However, the Kaionji Temple tour almost confirmed that it was Lady Hachisha who caused the death of Officer Tateda, and it seems that ghosts of that level cannot be lumped together with ordinary lower-level ghosts.

However, the little king, who was closest to Officer Tateda's body, discovered something else unusual.

The front of Officer Tateda's shirt seemed to have been roughly torn open by someone, and on the exposed skin on the man's chest, there was a small area whose skin color was different from that of other parts.

This also made Kaiyinsi Suyou suddenly remember that there was something missing from Mr. Tateda.

In his memory, Officer Tateda has always been wearing a jade statue of Guanyin in recent years. It seems that it was obtained from a famous Zen master and has a good effect in exorcising demons.

But now, the jade plaque has disappeared.

"The deceased should have been wearing something."

A police officer who was examining the body also noticed something unusual and spoke out loudly.

"Could it be that the thief was here too?"

A policeman guessed, but his guess was immediately denied by his colleagues.

"That's impossible. We didn't find any other signs of intrusion by anyone else before, and no other property of the deceased was lost."

The head of the search team said this firmly, obviously disagreeing with this conjecture.

Since the possibility of a thief who was after money was ruled out, who was it that wanted to take Officer Tateda's jade token? Everyone immediately fell into deep thought.

Sitting in front of the desk, Haiyin Temple Suyou thought carefully. In this situation, Lady Hachisha seemed to be the biggest object of suspicion.

He unconsciously rubbed the wooden plaque on his ear, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to him.

The amulet given by the Zen master, the jade Buddha brought from the temple, and in a flash, a terrible guess appeared in his mind.

"Zongzhi Temple..." Haiyin Temple Suyou muttered to himself, and suddenly shivered.
