I’m a Witch In Dongying

She didn't remember that she had disclosed this piece of information to Keiko Kandaji.

"Of course not only for this reason."

Keiko Kamashiro continued: "The guy named Shiya Asano mentioned that one of Aoluhuo’s best abilities is to manipulate other people’s memories. In myths and legends about it, it is mentioned that this monster was once affected by the emperor. Inspired by him, he went to see him, and was granted five officials by the emperor at that time. This anecdote is also the origin of the name [Five Lights].

Such an act of blatantly revealing his identity is something that ordinary monsters would never take. It can be seen that Qingluhuo's personality should be more public and disdain to hide himself.

Therefore, its ability to manipulate memory can be well applied to such occasions, allowing it to construct a perfect identity for itself, so that it can appear in human society swayingly. "

Having said that, the girl paused:

"I remember Qiujiang, you told me before that Jiufeng Ziyuan is a very dangerous person.

If you can describe it in this way, in all likelihood, it is an existence related to the supernatural level. It is either an onmyoji proficient in spells or some other profession, or... it is a monster or a resentful spirit, but the resentful spirit will not be plagued by no spiritual media. People see it, so it is excluded first, and there are two options left.

Before Qiujiang made this reminder, I checked the teacher files of Jiufeng Ziyuan through the school board and did some simple investigations.

As a Japanese archery consultant and teacher of Chinese language, although her resume has no loopholes, it seems a bit too perfect. Every step in her life grows as if it is arranged according to the schedule, whether it is the achievements or the encounters. The setbacks are smooth and excessive, even a little distorted...

In response to these situations, the only reasonable explanation is that the teacher is actually a monster, and her personal file itself is the script she wrote for herself. "

"On this basis, putting these two conjectures together can draw the conclusion I just mentioned."

"..."

Bai Shuiqiu was silent.

Since knowing the true identity of Shiramine Shion, she has been deliberately avoiding Keiko Kashiro being involved in matters related to the old monster. For this reason, she warned the girl "Shion Shion is a dangerous person." . It is not surprising that Keiko Kashiro can guess the identity of the old monster as the "youkai".

but……

In just a few minutes after learning of the existence of the "Qingluhuo", all the information was integrated and the true body of the Qingluhuo was determined. This is not something ordinary people can do.

The girl's comprehensive information ability and reasoning ability are simply terrifying.

Thinking of this, Bai Shuiqiu took a deep breath, nodded and admitted: "Yes, Teacher Ziyuan is indeed Qingluhuo."

"I haven't told you before because her existence is too special, and there is no benefit in letting ordinary people know about this information. But this time the Hojo clan took the initiative and involved Keiko in you, so there was no further concealment. It's necessary."

"really……"

Keiko Kashiro squinted slightly, and thought for a while: "It seems that from the day Qiujiang won the championship, Jiufeng Shion has not appeared in the arena or interviews with reporters. If I'm not mistaken, she should Did you deliberately hide in order to reduce your sense of existence and avoid being discovered by the Hojo family?"

"Yes."

Bai Shuiqiu nodded: "A few days ago, there was a hair-eating ghost near Mantis Town. Teacher Shion and I suspected that it had something to do with the ghosts of Dajiangshan, so Teacher Shion is investigating this aspect these days. Information..."

At the moment, Bai Shuiqiu probably recounted what happened at Uncle Sun Qiyue's house that day.

Keiko Kandaji listened silently, asking for a sentence or two from time to time.

After listening to the whole incident, the girl lowered her head, lost in thought.

...

at the same time.

On the trail near the restaurant.

Ryoko and his party, as well as the police from Kyoto City such as Murakami, had left by car and went to the nearby police station to assist in the investigation.

As for the Hojo Goro and others in the attic, they have long since disappeared. Now that something has happened to Asano Shiya, it is of course impossible for them to stay here anymore.

So at this time, only a few people who rushed to eat melons stayed nearby, pointing and talking about what they saw.

Parked in the cabin of a gray car 100 meters away from the restaurant, Washiamine Shion, wearing a yukata, lit a cigarette, took two puffs with a cigarette in one hand, and slowly tapped the other hand on the steering wheel. Now, his eyes narrowed slightly, still looking at the place where the conflict just now took place:

"Togakushi Ghost Girl..."

She has been here for a while, and because of this, she heard some of the rhetoric mentioned by Bai Shuiqiu during the torture process.

As an old monster who has lived for nearly a thousand years, this woman is naturally not the first time he has heard of this record of the Hojo family.

But in the previous few times, she didn't take it seriously. She only regarded it as a vanity-ridden family of human onmyojis. In order to maintain her reputation and face in front of her colleagues and the public, she deliberately brags about gorgeous stories. After all, it was Tadayuki Ka Momiji who expelled the ghost girl Momiji, and the one who killed her was Weimo Ping. It has nothing to do with the Hojo family. Even if the Hojo family’s ancestors really trapped the ghost girl Momiji with a formation, at best it was just a support. That's it.

But this time, Jiufeng Ziyuan suddenly gave birth to a thought.

"Ghost Girl Hongye, it seems that she is also a ghost..."

Moreover, Hongye also lived in Kyoto for a period of time, that is, the period before marrying Yuan Jingji. Both are ghosts, and her relationship with the group of ghosts in Dajiangshan seems to be pretty good.

Could it be...

The plan that murdered the prince Akui and planted the blame on her was not only related to the Jiutun boy and his party in Dajiangshan, but also related to the ghost girl Hongye who was also in Kyoto at the time?

So what role did the Hojo family, who once trapped Momiji in a formation, played in this incident?

Was it really just because of Yinyangliao's order to kill him when he spared no effort to hunt down himself?

Mime private 517

The Hojo family, the ghost girl Hongye, Dajiangshan, and the death of the inner prince Akui...

Faintly, a vague conjecture gradually formed in Jiufeng Ziyuan's mind, but because of the lack of a little key evidence, she could not completely confirm the conjecture.

"It's all to blame for the little devil named Yuan Laiguang for killing Dajiangshan so cleanly. The whereabouts of the few who escaped by chance are unknown. The humans who participated in the incident that year died as early as a thousand years ago. Now I can’t even find my personal ID..."

"But if the Onmyoji of the Hojo family really participated in the previous assassination..."

In order to realize one's ambitions, he did not hesitate to abandon the identity of human beings, and there are people who collude with the demons, but secretly murdering the prince of the royal family is not something ordinary people dare to do. In particular, Akui also holds the position of the maiden of Ise Jingu. In a sense, this position is the spokesperson of the emperor himself, and the messenger of Amaterasu Omikami in the world, and the highest authority in charge of the entire Shintoism.

The assassination of Akui was tantamount to an open declaration of war on the entire Shinto religion and the Eastern Royal Family.

For this reason, Shiramine Shion, who was still carrying the name of the "five light", was on the kill list of the Kyoto Yinyang Ryokan overnight. Even if he escaped from Kyoto by chance, he was still taken by the Kansai area. The various shrines and Yin Yang Liao have been hunted down for decades.

So that when she finally escaped the pursuit, settled down, and cultivated enough strength to seek revenge from the ghost clan, Da Jiangshan was already destroyed by Yuan Laiguang and his party.

The remaining few ghost tribes such as Ibaraki are more conscientious.

Even if Jiufeng Shion spent a lot of energy searching, he only killed a few young people, but like Ibaraki Dozi, the former deputy chief of Dajiangshan, he has never revealed his true identity in front of human practitioners. She has never been able to catch it smoothly.

If the Hojo family really intervened in this incident, they never exposed themselves. On the contrary, after the destruction of the Dajiangshan Ghost Clan, it has continued as a family of Onmyojis unharmed to this day...

So this one is a bit intriguing.

"It seems that this group of onmyojis are not as upright as they advertised, and none of the guys I killed back then were truly innocent. Those who kill the demon must have the consciousness of being killed by the demon."

"Well, don't care about that much..."

This round of deliberation has already taken a lot of time.

Jiufeng Shiyuan raised the watch in his right hand to take a look at the time, and then took a long breath of smoke, squeezed out the lady's cigarette in the ashtray on the car, and then waved it to clear the smoke lingering in the car. .

In Jiufeng Shion's view, regardless of whether there was any collusion with the ghost clan, the Hojo clan must resolve it.

Otherwise, letting them entangled like this will cause more trouble sooner or later.

With her consistent temperament, the only way to treat this kind of disobedient guy is to cut the grass and remove the roots, just like when Chiba City dealt with Shimizu Takaichi and others, a fire burned from the body to the soul, and it was a hundred.

but now……

"Just let them live for a few more days, I hope these guys can be a little safer, don't do anything profitable, and I will give you a big gift when I leave Kyoto..."

While talking, Jiufeng Shion had started the car and stepped on the accelerator. The gray car drifted almost ninety degrees in place, and then drove out in the direction where Bai Shuiqiu and Keiko Kandaro left.

…………

"I suspect that the Hojo clan is related to the ghost clan. The eater that Qiujiang you met was probably released by the Hojo clan."

In the car back to the hotel.

Keiko Kashiro said seriously.

"I have thought about it, but it is unlikely."

Bai Shuiqiu shook his head: "The Gion Festival is a ritual activity hosted by Yasaka Shrine. The ghost clan appears at the previous festival, and it will only attract the priests of the Yasaka Shrine the first time. If the Shifa ghost is really released by the Hojo family, And their primary goal is me and Teacher Shion, so they should directly let the eater come to me.

And driving the Shifagui into Mantis Mountain, other than attracting the anger of Yasaka Shrine, is of no benefit to the Hojo family.

Besides, I also used my spiritual sense to detect the memory of that eating ghost, and I did not see Hojo Goro and others. The ghosts who appeared with it were all ghosts, and one of them had a particularly powerful aura, maybe Is their leader. "

"Then there is another possibility..."

Keiko Kamishiro thought for a while, and then said, "It was colluding with the Hojo family. In fact, it was the leaders of those ghosts. The Shifagui just acted on orders and used the method of crashing into Mantis Mountain to create riots. A pool of water is muddy, in that case, you shouldn't be able to detect Qiujiang, right?"

"It's possible... But even if I can't detect it, the Asakura family will not be deceived by this trick."

"Oh why?"

Bai Shuiqiu smiled as he watched Keiko Kamidai raise her eyebrows.

"There is another piece of information that Keiko you don't know. There is a maiden named Asakura Rie at Yasaka Shrine, who is very good at diagnosing hexagrams. Even if Shifagui was in collusion with the Hojo clan, she should be able to Calculated, at least there is a certain probability that it can be done.

The Hojo family is also a prominent family in Kyoto. It is impossible not to know the ability of Asakura Rie. Under the premise of knowing it, they also adopted the plan of using food to send ghosts to ask for directions. The risk is too great and it is not wise. "

"Asakura Rie..."

Hearing this name, Keiko Kandaro's first reaction was to look up alertly, "Akichan, isn't it the first time you have come to Kyoto? How did you know the maiden of Yasaka Shrine?"

"Um...actually, I just met. On the day when I was investigating the situation of the roller car in Mantis Town, I stopped by to Yasaka Shrine, where I met Asakura Rie and was invited to the inner room. I narrated for a while. But in the final analysis, it is only a one-sided relationship. It is a bit reluctant to say that it is a friend. At the moment, it should only be regarded as a'known person'."

Bai Shuiqiu explained.

Her friendship with Rie Asakura is indeed very shallow. To speak of it, it is better to have friendship with Asakura Asami. After all, the latter has had a fight with her, and it is a bit like a deal.

But these are irrelevant to the current analysis, so she just mentioned it in one sentence, and did not entangle it much.

"So..."

Keiko Kashiro will be suspicious.

But Bai Shuiqiu herself didn’t intend to elaborate. The girl had to sigh slightly, lowered her eyes, and continued to help analyze the problem: “It’s true that the Hojo family is not good for the Hojo family if they want to contact you. If it is, there are many better ways to use it, but... what if it is not the Hojo clan who is in charge of all this, but the ghost clan?"

"what?"

"To put it simply, crashing into Mantis Mountain and provoking Yasaka Shrine is the meaning of the ghost clan, and the Hojo clan can only use their tactics and drive the ghosts into the Sun Qiyue who you know and Qiujiang without interfering in their actions. My uncle’s house, in this way, Sun Qiyue will most likely call Qiujiang when you are making a mess, and then Goro Hojo and his party will rush over and intercept you in Mantis Town."

Keiko Kamidai spread out her palm and tapped the palm with the index finger of the other hand, as if she was depicting the topography of Kyoto:

"Look, this road is Shijo-dori, next to Karasuma-dori, which is the main venue for the Gion Festival, and this is Yasaka Shrine...

Geographically speaking, although Mantis Town is located on Shijo-dori, it is far away from Yasaka Shrine. Unless Asakura's family gets the news in advance, it will be difficult to get there in time.

Even if there are a few people staying near Mantis Mountain, as long as Hojo Goro plays the banner of the "Kyoto Countermeasures Team", he can also forcefully take you and the Shifagui away before the important figures of the Asakura family come to assist in the investigation. .

Although there is a risk of alerting Yasaka Shrine to this, it is difficult for Yasaka Shrine to change anything if it is one step behind because it is done first.

And as long as you can get the Qinglu Fire, everything will be a bargain.

However, Hojo Goro and his entourage did not expect that you have already met Asakura Rie, and they notified Asakura Fumata as soon as they departed from the hotel, so that the food that should have been taken away by them will get rid of the ghost. Into the hands of Yasaka Shrine, and you get away safely.

So after that, the Hojo clan took the second action, which was to send Shiya Asano, a member of the countermeasure team attached to them, to arrest you directly.

It may be because of his discomfort with Shiya Asano. Even during the operation, Goro Hojo still uses a miniature headset to monitor the whole process. If the police did not arrive in time, they might appear in front of you again..."

"Will it be like this?"

Bai Shuiqiu was a little stunned.

"According to my judgment, the accuracy rate should be above 75%."

Keiko Kamishiro nodded seriously, her tone as if she was stating a fact.

Such a solemn performance made Bai Shuiqiu a little convinced.

The ghost family and the Hojo family...

Bai Shuiqiu had made some guesses before, but basically he had never put the two together.

After all, no matter how intrigue among practitioners, they are always in the camp of human beings. When facing the bloodthirsty and evil monsters of the ghost race, even if they are different from the enemy, they should hold on to their actions. Human bottom line. Making a deal with the ghost clan is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger. Maybe one day you won’t even know if you are eaten by the opponent.

If even the famous family of Onmyojis like the Hojo clan is involved with the ghost clan...

Then the water in the Kyoto spiritual world is probably not as deep as usual.

I even further thought, maybe the prince Aquine was killed...

It's not as simple as it seems?

Perhaps the original intention of the ghost clan was to declare war on Amaterasu?

More and more thoughts are pouring out of my mind.

Bai Shuiqiu rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, and it took several minutes to press down the messy thoughts in his heart, and then he remembered the two magical fortunes he and Keiko Kandaji had drawn in Lishan:

"If it's like Keiko what you said, then the two bad luck draws we drew before are really effective.
