Chapter 319

While waiting for the police to arrive at the scene, some of the invited members, including detectives, scammers and real mysterious practitioners, have turned this place into a noisy market.

Dog-headed Detective A: "Based on the initial assessment of the corpse, the time of death should have been long before everyone came here today - so it seems to have nothing to do with you... but on the contrary! I think the time of death has become evidence of your suspicion! Because demons and ghosts do not exist! In order to make the scene a one-man show for you, you took the risk of killing the client in advance -"

"But you didn't expect the client to issue a wide range of invitations!!!"

Suspected Scammer A: "No, anyone with a normal IQ can tell that this is not a specific commission, right?"

Miko A wearing a fox mask: "The time of death should have been earlier..."

Suspected Scammer B: "Ahh, how pitiful... It's obvious that he's been cursed by some evil spell - please rest assured and leave everything to me. I will definitely seek justice for my client."

Onmyoji A, who is said to be from the Doyoumon family: "Sure enough, I should have listened and not come here..."

Reliable Detective B: "The police are coming. Don't panic and run away, and don't do anything strange. Just cooperate with the police and answer some basic questions!"

A famous shrine priest A*: "There must be something wrong that I haven't found yet—"

"It's really noisy." After listening to the entire broadcast of Asaya Michiman, Fujimaru Ritsuka commented on it.

"It's really noisy," Abe Haruaki agreed.

"But if the police come..." Edmund tightened the wrench and reminded Asuka Doman, "Do you still remember your ID information?"

"Very good, I have forgotten everything." Asaya Doman froze in place with a smile on his face, and asked for help from those who were not present, "Can anyone give me a hint?"

"According to the previous settings, the surname that Mr. Michiman needs to use is Fujiwara - the Fujiwara of Fujiwara Akimitsu who was summoned by the Asaya Michiman Treasure Association in Pan-Human History." Mashu waited until the break to have time to distract himself and join the conversation, "The name is borrowed from Mr. Saito Ichi of the Please Select Group."

"The interpersonal relationship is——Mashiro Kirie's distant relative, one of Fujimaru Ritsuka's guardians, Edmund-san's cohabitant and one of his partners in the office..." Fujimaru Ritsuka recalled the social relationship map of this world's identity that he had made before, and helplessly began to supplement the information to Ashiya Michiman, "Since Lord Haruaki will not appear in normal society, he is still an illegal resident, and is not included in the social relationship settings."

"That is..." Asaya Doman blinked and started walking closer to the crowded area. "For most of the problems, we just need to tell the police the truth, right? Then should we continue investigating this clue? Even if the police can't find any results - since the case has been taken over by the police, it is impossible to allow the public to continue to join in."

"Although this is true, I can only trouble Mr. Daoman to find a way to investigate further." Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed and threw the volleyball that fell beside him back to the court. "Is this a demonstration from the other side... or a provocation? In short, we must not let them off so easily."

"Whether the invitation was prepared by the other party or was made when the original client was still alive, there is only one thing we need to do. That is to solve the mystery of this house, catch the Holy Grail holder who is trying to do something to this world, and complete the task of recovering the Holy Grail."

"...Okay, leave it to me from now on - it seems that I still have to deal with those two parties." Asaya Michiman looked at the crowd in front of him with a smile, and found four people who had not approached the scene too much, "Seimei is the monster An who came into contact with, right? This time, I will start with Iwanaga Kotoko. "

"I'm curious if the monsters in this world will mistake me for "Abe Haruaki" - I haven't worn a mask like this for a long time, and it feels a bit long in the tooth."

"Have you found anything, Princess?" Abe Harusai lowered his head to confirm the situation with Iwanaga Kotoko, "Is it related to us or is it something we don't need to worry about?"

"This incident and Ichiro's incident were probably the work of the same person." Iwanaga Kotoko blinked and looked up at Abe Harusai's eyes. "You should still remember, right? When Ichiro was about to be taken away and sealed by the judiciary, he died without any warning in front of the law."

"But the results of the examination given by Ms. Kawahara of Kame Yakudo are that Ichiro has been dead for a long time, and someone has been keeping him alive in some unknown way until he lost control and showed the characteristics of a corpse. Just like this case today."

"So...?" Ashiya Hanae turned her head subconsciously and looked at Abe Harusai, whose expression suddenly changed. "Did you find something, Abe?"

"That eye was brought to us by Ichiro, and the story of the living Kaguya-hime contaminated that eye in reverse, proving that it was used by at least someone as a real anchor for the living Kaguya-hime ghost story..." Abe Harusai turned his head to look at the crime scene, but only saw a densely packed crowd. "And now, a case similar to Ichiro's death has appeared in the world."

"Ms. Rikka's collaborator is the one who created these two incidents." Sakuragawa Kuro looked at Iwanaga Kotoko who was lost in thought and said the latest conclusion, "He should have also been the one who stole the fragments of the divine body from the hidden world and sent them to the human world. Isn't it more likely to find the answer if we let them investigate the vicious and evil guys who were once sealed in the hidden world?"

"It's a direction." Iwanaga Kotoko nodded, looked up at Abe Harusai, and arranged the next destination for the four of them. "After the police have asked about the situation at the scene and allowed us to leave, we will go directly to the hidden world - we only need to see which seal is invalid to find the answer."

"By the way, since you have met that person before..."

"Um?"

By the time the police finished their work and let everyone leave the scene, it was already dusk and the devil's time had come.

"I won't go back tonight. I will start investigating the traces of Onmyoji here." Asaya Doman told the people who didn't come to Kyoto about the future arrangements. "I may not be able to go back next Monday. If I can't make it, I'll let the Cave King prepare the meals for Master and Mashu. Of course, I'll also take care of Abe's part."

"Awaya Hanae and Abe Harusai still have to go back to school, so they will definitely be back at school on Monday - regardless of whether the results are found or not." Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was preparing dinner for the club members with Mashu, began to speculate on the future developments, "Lord Haruaki has probably been completely exposed in front of them, so they can probably deduce that "Awaya Doman" is one of the shady results."

"How does Mr. Daoman plan to contact them?"

"Hmm..." Asaya Domitsu, who had already transformed into a spirit and floated high up, looked down at the four people who sneaked into the Monster Temple from the bottom of the wall, and silently emptied his mind, "As long as I keep investigating, I will eventually see them...right? After all, I can't follow them into seclusion. But as long as I continue to investigate these cases with similar characteristics...I will eventually meet them. "

"Even if there is a Holy Grail, it is impossible to use magic power indefinitely - so this family will definitely have a "disconnection" at a certain time, just like the guys you saw at the Shibuya Anomaly." Asaya Michiman landed on a tree, released a few origami shikigami, and then returned to the state of spirit son. "As long as I wait for the "disconnection" to appear, I can follow the traces of magic power to find that guy."

"After all, even though it's called a 'disconnection'... this is the time when the connection between the shikigami and the Onmyoji is the clearest. So, let me see where the 'me' in this world is hiding. The Abe in this world shouldn't have a chance to reappear after death like in ours - or, even if there is a mechanism, it shouldn't be a mechanism that allows him to reappear in this era."

On the other hand, Abe Harusai used the Monster Temple to directly open the door to the salamander pond. The servants of the Monster Temple who were recognized in the hidden world, the god of wisdom of the monsters, and her followers did not have to go through the hidden world gate to enter the hidden world. They could directly transfer to the hidden world through the Monster Temple.

"You should still be in Kyoto, right?" It was a rare occasion that the three of them were crowded together in the salamander pond. The executive took the lead in the legislation and the judiciary and turned back to ask the two people from Monster An who had been assigned a task by him, "Why are you here again?"

"I have some clues that should help you narrow down the scope of the seals you need to investigate." Iwanaga Kotoko sat at the entrance of the Monster Temple and shook her legs at the three monsters in front of her. "It was that guy who helped Ms. Rikka create the living festival Kaguya-Ichiro's death was probably caused by that guy... Today we saw a death similar to Ichiro's in Kyoto."

"This guy can manipulate not only dead monsters, but also dead humans, controlling them like his own puppets."

The judiciary exchanged a lackluster glance with the legislature.

"There really aren't that many perverts of this type." The executive frowned in disdain and looked at the judicial and legislative officials in charge of the matter. "With this condition, it should be easy to find the answer, right?"

"No, it's the administration." The judiciary lazily leaned against the wall, yawning and denying the administration's statement. "This kind of perverted description... the last time I heard it was how many years ago? Well, but the pervert who can do it and will do it to this extent - there is probably only one person, right?"

"...We should know the situation if we go to the seal site and take a look." Lifa clapped his hands, looked at Abe Harusai and then Ashiya Hanae with a very subtle expression, and finally set his sights on Iwanaga Kotoko, "What do you think, Princess? Do you want to go to the place where Ashiya Doman, the old enemy of the great Onmyoji Abe Haruaki from a thousand years ago, was sealed?"

"After all, when it comes to perverts who play with corpses and play with life, he's the only one."
