I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Life or death?

The answer is obvious - life.

Just when Shiki's switchblade was about to wipe Shiki's throat and Shiki's straight blade was about to cut into Shiki's body, two silver bullets whizzed and hit their wrists, and the straight blade and switchblade were instantly released. out.

At the same time, the blades of the two short knives began to twist and became a mess.

Immediately afterwards, two black curse bullets hit the knees of the two men respectively. Before the magic contained in them could take effect, an invisible pressure had already pressed the two of them to the ground, unable to move.

The silver bullet came from Shinji, the twisting power came from Fujino, the spell came from Sakura's hand, and the oppressive magic was released by Orange. No one needed to remind them, the four of them took action to save people in unison.

"Shiki, Shiki, are you okay?" Mikiya exclaimed and ran towards the two of them. It would be difficult for someone who was not particularly familiar with them to understand whose name he was calling.

Shi lay sprawled on the ground, breathing heavily while rubbing his sore wrists.

"Ah, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired. Go check on that guy."

Shenji moved faster than Ganya: "He's fine too. He just exercised too much and used his eyes too much. He'll be fine if he takes a nap."

The Eye of Direct Death puts a huge burden on the user's brain. Shiki's body is special, and he fully understood death during his two years in coma, so he can withstand it. The same cannot be said for Shiki. His body and time in contact with death are not as good as Shiki, and he cannot support the magic eye for a long time.

"Okay, Matou, help me get his knife."

Shinji casually picked up the two men's daggers and handed them to Shiki's eyes. Shiki glanced at an ancient mark on the handle of the switchblade and nodded thoughtfully.

"It is indeed Qiye."

"Qiye?" Qianye was slightly startled.

"Well, the Ryogi family where I am and the Asakami family where Fujino was born are both ancient demon-exorcist families. Among the famous demon-exorcist families, only the Nanaya family has stronger killing skills than the Ayogi family, and only Nanaya's blood To be able to bring about such an improvement, the one just now should be the 'Flash Away' of the Seven Nights Assassination Technique."

The instant escape and instant return used by Shiki before the final blow was the Nanaya family's signature assassination technique. It used walls to move at high speed, which was somewhat similar to flying over walls in martial arts novels.

"But wasn't the Nanye family already exterminated? Eight years ago." Mikiya asked doubtfully.

"Yeah, maybe he was the last survivor of the Nanye family and was adopted by the Arima family, so he changed his surname to Arima." Shiki struggled to sit up, staring blankly at the face similar to the man holding her, " By the way, Qianye, how come you know so much about the demon clan?"

"Ah, that... I got involved a little bit when I was investigating your family."

Qianya scratched the side of his face in embarrassment. At present, the few people are borrowing the dojo opened by the Liangyi family, and using the Liangyi family's property to talk about the investigation behind the scenes, it is no wonder that he feels embarrassed.

Yes, this is the property of the Yangyi family, and the location is Guanbuzi City, not Tokyo. Ever since Orange agreed to help Zhiki, Zhiki would come to Kanfuko City every holiday. In order to prevent his family from worrying, Mikiya even went to Ariuma's house to explain that it was okay. It didn't matter what he explained. Seeing Mikiya's face, there was nothing to worry about.

By the way, it was Shiki's idea to borrow the dojo to train Shiki's skills. In other words, since he is my younger brother, being weak is not allowed. Unexpectedly, this younger brother is not weak at all.

"But it's really a coincidence. Your Ryogi, Fujino-san's Asakami, Wujo-san is a branch of the Wu Jing family, and Shiki-chan's Nanaya. The four major exorcism families have all gathered together. I wonder if it will happen. What a wonderful thing."

"Who knows." Shi Shi casually played with Qiye's switchblade.

Shinji on the side looked embarrassed.

He does not mean that. After changing the fates of Fujino and Kirie one after another, Shinji actually took the initiative to collect the blood of the four major exorcism families to see if he could summon the divine dragon. He watched too much "Dragon Ball" and was unknowingly affected.

Nothing happened. The origins of the four major exorcism families are all different, and their bloodline characteristics are even more different. The so-called Big Four are just names given by some people. In fact, there are not many connections between the various families. If Shinji hadn't brought them together, Shiki, Shiki, Fujino, and Kirie would never have been able to get along as well as they do now.

"By the way, Shinji, about the Arima family where Shiki lives."

"Stop—" Shinji raised his hand to interrupt Mikiya, "Let's change places. Sakura, you treat Shiki, and then practice body protection with Fujino. Since you borrowed this dojo, you can't waste it. .”

"Okay, brother/Shinji."

Nodding to the two of them, Shinji winked at Mikiya and Orange respectively and walked out of the dojo.

"What did you find out again? Qianye."

In the corridor outside the dojo, Shiki sat on the railing, looking at the face that was always quiet.

"Last time, you said that there might be a problem with Shiki's family, so I did a little research. There is indeed a problem with the Arima family, or to be precise, the Yuma family."

"Tell me more about it."

"The head family of the Arima family is the Tono family. This family may be the enemy of the demon exorcism family, a demon or a family related to 'demon'."

"Tono, I seem to have heard someone in my family mention this surname. Well, it should be a clan mixed with inhuman blood. However, the family has not listed this clan as an enemy. It should be because the threat is not great, or it has not caused any harm. Too much harm.”

After confirming this, doubts arose.

"But why would such a family adopt Zhiki? The Nanaya family is a radical group among the demon exorcism families. It is said that the blood of Nanaya has a special urge to exorcise demons. When seeing inhuman beings, they will instinctively want to exclude them. On the contrary, The blood of Qiye will also give the clansmen the physical ability to fight against demons. It can be said that it is the most taboo existence for non-human (including mixed-blood) families. How can they be willing to adopt Qiye's child? Even if they are willing to adopt, they are not afraid of Zhi. Gui’s impulse to exorcise demons breaks out?”

"Maybe it's the personal behavior of Shiki's adoptive parents." Mikiya speculated, "The Arima family and the Tono family no longer have much blood connection. I think the inhuman blood is so thin that it shouldn't cause Zhi. Expensive urge to exorcise demons.”

"That's the only way to explain Orange, Matou, what do you think?"

"I don't know much about demons and exorcism, but you should know, Shenji—" Orange lit his cigarette while looking at Shenji.

Shenji leaned against the pillar and remained motionless, seemingly not hearing Orange's voice.

"Hey, don't be in a daze." Chengzi reached out and knocked on Shenji's forehead.

"Ah." Shenji finally woke up from a dream, "What's wrong?"

"Tell us about that kid's life experience. Don't say you don't know. The name you told me at the beginning was 'Tono Shiki', not 'Arima Shiki'."

When Orange said this, Shiki and Mikiya also locked their eyes on Shinji's face.

Shen Er scratched his head in distress: "I know, I know, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Is it complicated?" Chengzi frowned.

"Well, it's very complicated, like a mess."

"That's even more important. Maybe we can figure it out."

"Okay." Shenji held his chin and thought for a while, then finally nodded, "Yes, I have one request. Shiki cannot be told about our conversation."
