Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world
#489 - Section 489
Not to mention, their original plan was to create a terrifying disaster in Itomori Town.
From the moment they had such thoughts, they were no longer human, but twisted and disgusting evil beings, so naturally there would be no so-called human rights.
“This number…”
Ye Xing glanced at the phone number displayed on the screen, memorized it firmly, and then burned it into nothingness with black flames.
“Huff… Huff…”
Hearing Ye Xing's slightly panting voice and seeing his body sway slightly, as if he was a little weak, Miyamizu Mitsuha quickly stepped forward to support him, looking worried and whispering.
“Are you alright?”
“Yeah, I'm fine.”
Ye Xing nodded and looked at the black-red mist emanating from the corner of the corridor, slowly saying.
“Pulling that strange door, including the disaster it represents, into the domain… the consumption of power is indeed great…”
Miyamizu Mitsuha looked concerned and pursed her lips.
“Do you want to rest for a while?”
“No, there's no time.”
Ye Xing shook his head and walked towards the source of the black-red mist.
“Let's make a quick decision.”
… …
On the other side, in the real world outside the domain.
Miyamizu Toshiki stood outside the town hall office building, watching the black-red mist swirling in the sky, gradually fading, as if the source had been forcibly cut off by something. He frowned, looked at a staff member beside him, and pointed to the direction in the sky.
“Confirmed? What is that thing?”
“Eh? Councilman Miyamizu, what are you talking about?”
The staff member looked puzzled, looked up at the clear sky, and looked confused.
“What thing… Did you see something?”
Noticing the other person's expression, Miyamizu Toshiki was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the surrounding staff, and found that no one seemed to notice the anomaly in the sky like him.
“No… it's nothing.”
Miyamizu Toshiki shook his head, said nothing, just stared at the black-red mist gradually fading in the sky, and a bad feeling came over him.
… …
“This is… 'the Door'?”
Looking at the door in the town councilor's office, which had become somewhat dilapidated at this time, as if it had experienced countless years, and from which wisps of black-red mist were bursting out, Miyamizu Mitsuha couldn't help but change her expression.
Just standing in front of this strange wooden door, she seemed to be able to hear countless people whispering, and felt a sense of inexplicable fear.
“Strictly speaking, we don't call this thing 'the Door'.”
Ye Xing's expression remained unchanged, he just kept a distance of one meter away, observing the door emitting black-red mist, thoughtfully.
“Well… in order to distinguish it from 'the Door' in Kyoto City, let's call this thing 'the Way-Door', although I didn't come up with the name.”
Seeing that he still looked calm at this time, Miyamizu Mitsuha was so anxious that she almost laughed.
“No… what should we do now?”
“Close the door.”
Ye Xing replied casually, reached out his hand, and slowly placed it on the open wooden door.
At that moment, the black-red mist seemed to be stimulated by something, and burst out directly from the door.
“Ugh…”
Miyamizu Mitsuha raised her arms to block in front of her, feeling the impact of the black-red mist, and couldn't even open her eyes.
“Still resisting?”
The last time the Way-Door appeared in Kyoto City, it was thanks to Amano Hina, who had the power of the Weather Shrine Maiden, Yotsuya Miko, the guardian deity of Itomori Town, and the golden goat head, that they barely managed to close it at the critical moment.
This time, there was only Ye Xing alone.
“No key…”
Faced with the impact of the black-red mist, Ye Xing did not close his eyes like Miyamizu Mitsuha, but stared directly at the world inside the door.
Due to the obstruction of the mist and the wisps of gold thread mixed in it, he couldn't see clearly, but he could only see that in the world inside the door, there was a looming huge lake.
Exactly the same as the lake formed by the meteorite falling outside Itomori Town.
“Ye Xing, I'll help you!”
Seeing that Ye Xing seemed to be having some difficulty in closing the door, Miyamizu Mitsuha immediately ran forward and pressed half of her body against the wooden door.
Logically speaking, she is not a true psychic, so even if she made such a move, she should not be able to provide any help to the process of closing the door.
But unexpectedly, with the addition of Miyamizu Mitsuha, Ye Xing could clearly feel that the speed of closing the door was much faster.
In less than two seconds, the originally wide-open wooden door was left with only a tiny gap.
“Almost… almost there…”
Miyamizu Mitsuha clenched her silver teeth, and fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, looking like she was a little weak, but she still gritted her teeth and continued to persevere.
Just as the door was about to close, Miyamizu Mitsuha inadvertently glanced into the door.
What appeared in her eyes was a familiar figure of a woman wearing a kimono.
“Mom… Mom?”
“Bang.”
It was just a brief glimpse, and before Miyamizu Mitsuha could even distinguish whether what she saw was a hallucination or a real scene, the door was completely closed, and the black-red mist and the wisps of golden silk thread in the air disappeared instantly as if they had never appeared.
… …
Later that evening, outside the Itomori Town Hall.
Miyamizu Mitsuha looked at Ye Xing beside her with a thoughtful and complicated expression, hesitating to speak.
“I just… I seemed to see my mother in that Way-Door.”
“Futaba?”
Ye Xing replied casually.
"Wasn't she supposed to have passed away a few years after giving birth to Yotsuba? It must be an illusion. After all, the nature of the gate is still unknown, and it might create illusions to interfere with the minds of those trying to close it."
"Is that so..."
Miyamizu Mitsuha found this explanation reasonable, but there was always a strange feeling.
Was the figure she saw really just an illusion?
Just then, hurried footsteps came.
"Mitsuha!"
Miyamizu Toshiki walked quickly to Miyamizu Mitsuha, his brow furrowed, and said in a deep voice.
"What exactly is going on? You should give me an explanation now, right?"
After speaking, Miyamizu Toshiki looked at Ye Xing, who was standing aside, with a displeased expression.
"You kid... you're the one from the rumors these past few days... the guy who's been doing strange things with my daughter, right? What is your purpose in approaching Mitsuha!?"
Miyamizu Mitsuha frowned slightly upon hearing this, stood between her father and Ye Xing, looked directly into her father's eyes, and said with displeasure.
"Father... please calm down."
"Calm down? How can you expect me to calm down!?"
Miyamizu Toshiki's emotions were obviously very agitated.
"Every day after school, you run off to hang out with this... this guy who came from who knows where. Do you know what people in town are saying? They're saying that I, Miyamizu Toshiki, can't even manage my own daughter, so how can I manage a town!? Now is the crucial time for the re-election, and you're going to affect me! Understand? Be mature, Mitsuha!"
Listening to her father's words, Miyamizu Mitsuha first bit her lip, then raised her head, looked directly into his eyes, and said angrily.
"Back then, you were the one who left, abandoning me and Yotsuba! Now you want to act like a father and discipline me, it's too late!"
"Mitsuha, you... you actually said that to me..."
"Alright, alright, everyone stop for a moment."
Seeing that the emotions of this father and daughter were becoming more and more intense, Kyoto's number one butter shooter chose to step in to mediate.
"Don't argue, don't argue, don't rush, don't rush."
Ye Xing was not disgusted with Miyamizu Toshiki.
This town councilor seems to be doing outrageous things, like disregarding everything for his re-election, like abandoning his two daughters, and the responsibilities of a son-in-law, directly leaving the Miyamizu family.
In fact, that's not the case.
Back then, when Miyamizu Toshiki was not called Miyamizu Toshiki, but Goukou Toshiki, he took the initiative to give up the family business and chose to come to the remote Itomori Town, becoming the son-in-law of the Miyamizu family.
How could such a top-level love brain who could do such a thing be a cold-blooded father who would abandon his two daughters for his own future?
Miyamizu Toshiki's reason for running for town councilor was because his wife, who was also Yotsuba and Mitsuha's mother, Futaba, contracted an immune disease, coupled with overwork, and the life of a shrine head who had to preside over various rituals, passed away after delaying the best time for treatment.
In Miyamizu Toshiki's view, his wife's death was precisely because of the existence of the Miyamizu Shrine. What gods, what sacrifices, such ignorant and foolish views were the culprits that killed his wife.
In order to change this, he needed to change the backward-thinking Itomori Town, and he needed to sit in the position of town councilor to make the changes he wanted.
"You kid..."
Looking at Miyamizu Toshiki looking at him with an angry look, Ye Xing noticed the details in the other's expression and said softly.
"Mr. Miyamizu, you... you saw something, didn't you?"
Miyamizu Toshiki was slightly stunned at first, then frowned slightly.
"I... I don't know what you're talking about."
"Your lies are so bad, no wonder you're just a town councilor."
Before Miyamizu Toshiki could retort, Ye Xing continued.
"What you just saw was not an illusion, but a real scene, which is the harbinger of the coming of 'disaster', but now you can rest assured, because Mitsuha and I have closed the gate of 'disaster'."
After hearing this, Miyamizu Toshiki was silent for a long time before frowning.
"Mitsuha... is your friend's mental state... still normal?"
Miyamizu Mitsuha pursed her lips and said in a low voice.
"Father... what Ye Xing said is true, gods, disasters, these... are all real, and... and..."
Speaking of this, Mitsuha paused slightly before saying cautiously.
"I seem... to have seen Mother."
"Mitsuha... are you still saying such things?"
Miyamizu Toshiki shook his head.
"Perhaps, I made the biggest mistake when I left you and Yotsuba in the Miyamizu family. You have also become neurotic and started to believe in these non-existent things."
After saying this, Miyamizu Toshiki did not give Mitsuha another chance to speak, but just frowned.
"I still have work to deal with now. When I have time, I hope you can talk to me seriously and let me know what exactly has been going on with you recently."
After speaking, Miyamizu Toshiki turned and left, walking towards the entrance of the town hall building.
Looking at her father's back, Miyamizu Mitsuha sighed slightly and forced a smile.
"I'm sorry... you had to see that."
Ye Xing waved his hand and replied with a chuckle.
"It's okay, after all, he's our dad. We're all family here."
Miyamizu Mitsuha's pretty face was slightly red, and she said a little flusteredly.
"What 'our dad'... don't call him that. By the way, on the future line of the town..."
Itomori Town's guardian deity appeared in time, forming a sentence with a red thread.
