Kanagawa Taoist College Students

The final meal of coffee and snacks cost 9,900 yen. Ryota Yamamoto and Kei Fukuoka turned green in the face. They looked at each other speechlessly in front of the 100 yen coins they found.

"Brother, are you leaving?" Qingshan Tamako's smile was still so sweet. She probably made back the money for the treat and was in a very happy mood.

"Well, it's already so late, we have to go back." Li Xuehao stood up from his seat. By this time, the club activity time had ended, and many students were going home at this time.

"Then will you come again tomorrow?" Qingshan Tamako asked expectantly.

"I'm going to stay together tomorrow, so I might not be able to come." Li Xuehao said. Seeing the disappointment on her little face, he added, "But after the staycation is over, I will come to visit."

"Then I'll wait for you, brother. Remember to look for me when you come." A smile appeared on Tamako Aoyama's face again.

"Okay." Li Xuehao agreed.

…

After coming out of Hirakawa Middle School, the excitement that Yamamoto Ryota and Fukuoka Kei had when they arrived had subsided. They still owed a "huge debt", so naturally they couldn't be happy.

After muttering for a while, Yuyamamoto Ryota stopped someone walking at the front: "Manaka..."

"What?" Li Xuehao turned around and saw the two of them holding hands, which made him feel chilled.

Ryota Yamamoto looked at him a little embarrassed: "Um...can I pay you back the money I owe you later?"

Keiichi Fukuoka also looked ashamed. The two of them were obviously short of money and lacked confidence.

Facing the awkward and nervous expressions of the two people, Li Xuehao felt funny in his heart, waved his hand and said: "You don't have to give it back to me, just treat it as my treat this time." After all, they are also his brothers-in-law, so it seems that they can't be too harsh. .

"This...isn't very good." Although Yamamoto Ryota was a little moved, he immediately became determined again, "Don't worry, I will pay it back to you. If you save pocket money every month, you can pay it off soon. of."

"Me too." Keiichi Fukuoka said in a timely manner. After all, the two of them are not that thick-skinned. Even if they are close friends, the money involved must be calculated clearly.

"Okay, then you can return it to me anytime." The two insisted so hard that Li Xuehao couldn't say anything else.

Hearing what he said, Yamamoto Ryota and Fukuoka Keiichi breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if they didn't have to pay back the money in the short term. They could slowly save their pocket money.

…

He returned home with Yamamoto Ryota and Fukuoka Kei. No one had returned home yet. After the two took their schoolbags and left, Li Xuehao closed the door and walked into the living room.

The living room was very clean. All the bags and crumbs left behind by Mai Guasheng after eating so many snacks last night were gone. The coffee table was spotless, thanks to the hard-working hostess of the family - Sayuri Chiba.

It was rare that he was alone at home, so Li Xuehao seemed very relaxed, sitting on the sofa and turning on the TV.

He has never had any requirements for watching TV. It doesn't matter what he watches, including bloody dramas, variety shows, and news. After changing a few channels, suddenly, a piece of news caught his attention.

In the picture, a female reporter dressed in smart business attire faced the camera and talked eloquently: "...Today, the 2.5 billion yen antique theft case of Sato Shigeo, the president of Sato Heavy Industries Group, finally made a major breakthrough. The suspect Sato family Chizuru Matsui, the housekeeper of the house, has been arrested and brought to justice, but the antique worth up to 2.5 billion yen has not been recovered. The Metropolitan Police Department is currently conducting full investigation. Please look to my left, which is the antique worth 2.5 billion yen stolen from the Sato family. …”

To the left of the female reporter in the picture, there is a small picture that takes up about one-third of the entire TV screen, and the stolen antiques are displayed in it.

It was something similar to a seal, but unlike a long seal, it was a square, square seal. The entire seal was about the size of a fist, and there were many pine and bamboo patterns carved on it, which looked very elegant.

The translucent yellow material seems to be polished from a piece of Tianhuang stone. Its jade-like luster makes people feel like they can't put it down at first sight.

Li Xuehao was attracted by this seal, not because of its value, but because of its "intrinsic". The seal looks very clear on the TV, and it can be said that it is very detailed. In addition to the pine and bamboo patterns carved on the four sides, there are also some similar decorative lines and patterns. Although it looks very messy, it does not hinder the beauty of the seal at all, and even Because of the existence of these patterns, the entire seal is more perfect.

It is normal for ordinary people not to recognize those patterns, but Li Xuehao is different. Those patterns that seem to be used for decoration are actually several formations that are linked together. Among them are the Soul Locking Formation, the Spirit Gathering Formation, and the Spirit Gathering Formation that he knows best. The soul-prisoning and soul-releasing formations.

Therefore, this is not an ordinary antique at all, but a magic weapon.

The spirit locking array is to lock the spiritual energy and prevent it from dissipating, while the spirit gathering array, as the name suggests, is to gather the surrounding spiritual energy. The Soul Imprisonment Formation is used to imprison spirit bodies, and the Soul Release Formation is used to release spirit bodies to attack.

With these four formations, it can be said that this is a magic weapon that has both "offense" and "defense". And since it is an antique, it obviously has a history of hundreds or even hundreds of years. I don't know how to put it down. It fell into the hands of a Japanese.

The other party obviously did not know the true value of this seal, and only regarded it as an antique collection. The female reporter on the TV also emphasized the value of 2.5 billion yen three times in a row. Ordinary people are more concerned about this 2.5 billion yen.

Unfortunately, it was stolen, but I don’t know if the person who stole it knew its true value. Li Xuehao had a hunch that it should be the latter.

Seeing this news, he couldn't sit still. If it were an ordinary antique, it would be stolen if it was stolen, and it was not his, he would not care at all.

But if it is a magic weapon, then he is interested. As the saying goes, if God does not take it, he will suffer the consequences. Now that he has seen it, it is better to hold it in his hand than to lose it outside.

Turning off the TV, he hurried upstairs. The news broadcast on the TV had finished. He wanted to go online to find some relevant news before he could start looking for it.

Turning on the computer, Li Xuehao entered keywords such as "2.5 billion antiques", and a lot of related news appeared. The latest one was that the suspect in the antique theft case had been arrested and brought to justice. After clicking on it, there was also a person named Matsui. Picture of Chizuru's housekeeper being brought into the police station with his hands cuffed.

When Chizuru Matsui was arrested, his eyes were dull and dull. Ordinary people might think that he was desperate because of his arrest, but Li Xuehao saw at a glance that he was not desperate because of his arrest, but was "hypnotized" "Yes, as he guessed, the person who actually stole the seal may have known its true value early on.
