I’M Really Helpless In Tokyo

The scene in front of him reminded Fujiwara Takumi more than a month ago when he watched Uncle Keigo being pierced by Sotokuin's chest under the Otorii gate.

"Let go of Zongsuke!!!"

He had originally respected these terrible dolls, and subconsciously rushed forward, the short "Royal Coin" in his hand was faintly surging with golden light...

"No, go and help!"

At the same time, Mijiro also lay on the back of a man, and ran towards Sousuke Araki.

Although this "outsider" showed the powerful strength that can defeat the bear spirit shelter and smash the offensive of ghosts and gods with only a wooden knife.

But they, who have just experienced a life-and-death battle, know how terrifying the sharp limbs and ghosts of these weird dolls are.

Being buried by such a large number of dolls is tantamount to falling into a meat grinder...

"Upper right C lower left B lower upper right left AB lower right A!"

Coming to the crazily squirming hill formed by the accumulation of "March Moon figures", Fujiwara Takumi swung the chrysanthemum pattern, and the golden light burst the coin and waved in front of him...

"Great Bear Spirit, please protect your descendants and expel evil spirits from the Holy Land!"

Riding on the back of the tribe, the first to distinguish Mijiro, the green light of the "sacred stick" in his hand burst out, and a super-large bear head with a huge open mouth came out...

"Hey, you nasty children, it's almost done..."

At the same time, the impermeable hill piled up by the "March Moon Figures" burst out from the crevices of the dolls with wisps of white light...

"I don't know if there is a saying called, eat chili for a crying child?!"

In the next second, the dolls on the "hill" were covered in white light like a lighted bulb, reflecting dazzling glare on the white snow that could not be seen directly.

"Hi...this is..."

"Zongsuke!"

Suddenly encountered a "flash bomb" attack, the few people who came to the front suddenly lost their ability to see objects, and their footsteps subconsciously stopped...

"This is the unique light of the soul returning to the kingdom of God..."

Only to distinguish Mi Jirou, still staring with tearful eyes, kneeling in front of the "hill" blooming with white light, repeatedly praying on the ground.

The Ainu believed that the bear spirit came to the world by attaching to the body of the bear.

Therefore, they will dedicate all they have to, even when food is scarce, they will not hesitate to use their own milk to raise the cubs.

After the bear reaches adulthood, at the "Bear Spirit Sacrifice", by letting the bears raised by their own hands die willingly, the spirit and the flesh of the gods can be separated and the gods can be sent back to the gods.

The bear skin, meat, and bones left behind are clothes worn by God, and a gift from God to the people of the tribe.

The white light in front of him is a unique "divine omen" that only appears in the "Bear Spirit Sacrifice" when the bear spirit successfully returns to the kingdom of God.

"Bear Spirit Appears Saint..."

Seeing Mijiro's move, all the Ainu people from near and far knelt down and began their pilgrimage.

In the white light shining, the dense "March Moon figure" quietly turned into a delicate girl wearing a kimono with big round eyes and a small fleshy face...

"It hurts...you little girls, you really can afford it..."

Araki Sosuke struggling out of the "hill" with a blue-faced face, was covered with little girls who were clenching his hands and feet with her teeth.

"Aju, it's not a bad person!"

"You are not allowed to catch Aju!"

"Dad...Mom..."

Looking around at the hundreds of cute girls kneeling awkwardly with their hands folded, he was taken aback...

"So, over the years, is Aju taking care of you at Wannian Temple and keeping you from running around?"

Immediately, he stretched out his hand to pinch the fleshy cheek of a girl next to him, and smiled relievedly: "In the next life, you must work hard to grow up healthy!"

"Hoo... scare, scare me to death, it's okay to squeak!"

After regaining his eyesight, Fujiwara Takumi was relieved to see that Sosuke Araki was safe and sound.

"Eh?"

He turned his head and saw that on his unreleased royal coin, a super giant "little daisy" with a diameter of about one meter and clear lines appeared at some time...

"What kind of shit, don't I remember learning this strange shinto technique?"

He dropped his feet on the snow and threw the giant chrysanthemum into the air, instantly blooming like fireworks.

"Old and old host, really didn't lie to Aju... Obedient child, one day, the Buddha will come and pick him up..."

On the top of the tall pine tree, the "Aju Ningyo" in a black kimono is standing silently on the branch, looking at the poignant scenery on the snowy ground from a distance.

Two rows of red blood drops fell from her eye sockets.

"Everyone... finally free... Must be happy... A Ju said with a reluctant expression."

Snowflakes flying, fluorescent dots, chrysanthemums all over the sky, centered on the man standing with the knife, countless distressed petite figures, like hexagonal snow crystals, disappearing in the wind...

Only the periphery was left, and the Ainu who looked like a bear from afar still bowed down to him unremittingly.

At the same time, the man in the distance suddenly looked in this direction with feeling...

"Only this time...A Ju can't be obedient..."

The petite black shadow between the branches disappeared instantly.

"There are two days left... Even if there is only A Ju, I still have to stay to protect everyone... A Ju said with a stubborn expression."

...

Hokkaido, 230 National Highway, Toyacho Section of Abuta County.

Thousands of miles of snow, not tired, but getting thicker and thicker.

Not far from the outskirts of Lake Toya, the original four-lane road has turned into a vast expanse of snow.

Since no vehicle can drive normally, even the rut marks are invisible, and the original appearance is completely invisible.

It's as if everything on the earth was covered, eroded, and gradually lost vitality by this white representing death and cold, and restored to its pre-civilization appearance.

"So, did the bus, the final positioning signal, be interrupted near here?"

"Yes, the positioning deviation of a single base station is about 500 meters, and there is only one road nearby."

In front of the military tent, Takumi Fujiwara communicated with several police officers stationed at the scene in charge of search and rescue work.

"However, because most of the electronic equipment and communication signals have been subjected to unknown interference, it is impossible to confirm whether it is the GPS of the bus or the nearby base station..."

A day ago, the temporary search and rescue team set up camp at the location where the bus was missing, and began the search and rescue work against the raging Blizzard.

"Because of this terrible snow disaster, all parts of Hokkaido are in urgent need of rescue forces. However, vehicles and communication equipment cannot be used normally. At present, the only people can only use sledges to search together along this national highway. The efficiency is very low..."

However, due to limited personnel, electronic equipment and communication failures, the ability of search and rescue personnel and their own safety cannot be effectively guaranteed, etc., the progress of search and rescue has been slow.
