The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 192: Final Battle (14)

There are not as many pedestrians on the temple fair street as before, but it is not because it is too late and everyone has gone home, but because the fireworks display will start in another hour. Experienced people certainly know that this kind of activity is just like going to appreciate cherry blossoms. You must occupy a good position in advance, otherwise you can only go to some remote corners and see nothing.

Kawasaki and Sato were the most diligent. They volunteered to go to the riverbank to find a good location, leaving behind Inuyama Heita and the two girls.

In fact, Inuyama Heita also wanted to go with them, but because he was worried about the two girls, he stayed.

—And help them carry the spoils of tonight.

There were a lot of prizes at the game booths, such as water balloons, dolls, goldfish and the like, but they still happily strolled around the temple fair street, vowing to try every kind of delicacy on the street.

"Um, did you eat too much?" Inuyama Heita followed them and saw that they bought another serving of takoyaki, so he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid of getting fat if you eat like this?"

This only earned the two girls' rolling eyes. Ono Haruna said, "Inuyama-kun, don't say such things to girls. It's very rude."

Suzuki threatened: "Stop interfering in girls' affairs."

Ken commented, "I heard that sweets are the second stomach of girls. Now it seems that not only sweets but also any snacks are OK...By the way, Inuyama clan, do we really not need to pay attention to the noise over there? It seems like the fight is very intense."

He was referring to the fluctuations that had been coming from the direction of the mountain beyond the shrine since the start of the competition. To a psychic like him, those intense fluctuations were like fire alarms, obviously too much, constantly stimulating his senses and nerves, making it impossible for him to completely ignore them.

"Trust Brother Yi." Inuyama Heita said, "I haven't seen many exorcists, so I don't know how strong he is. But since Brother Yi is confident, then there will be no problem. He is not a person who does things without considering the consequences. He must have his own considerations for doing this."

"Hey, Inuyama, what are you talking about?" Ono Haruna turned around and waved, "I and Xiao Xiao can't finish these takoyaki, please help me eat them, don't waste them."

Inuyama Heita sighed and said, "It's like this again... If you don't want to waste it, don't buy it."

Ono Haruna smiled and said, "I just wanted to try it, but who knew it was so filling. You can't buy such good food with this little money in Tokyo~ Come on, open your mouth, ah~~~"

Since the training camp incident, Ono Haruna has returned to her cheerful self of a year ago. This carefree look coupled with her pretty face is very attractive to boys, but she is disliked by the small groups of girls in the school. Therefore, she does not have a good relationship with other girls in the class, so she simply continues to stay in the psychic club and play with them.

"Sister Ono, I can do it myself." Inuyama Heita said with a red face as he looked at Ono Haruna who was holding takoyaki in front of him. In his eyes, Ono Haruna was wearing a beautiful yukata and a white fox mask on her head, which made her look very charming.

Ono Haruna said: "You have been holding things for us in your hands, and you can't spare any time, so I'll treat it as a reward for you. Come on, my hands are sore, come on, ah~~~"

Inuyama Heita accepted the feeding with a red face. Suzuki stared at Ono Haruna in amazement and thought to himself: Wow, she's amazing, she's really good at it.

If Suzuki hadn't spent some time with Ono Haruna, knowing that she was carefree under her charming appearance, she would have done whatever she wanted. Otherwise, Suzuki would have really treated Ono Haruna as a green tea character like other girls and kept her at a distance. With this kind of personality, it's no wonder that she has a bad reputation in school. "Wow, a high school girl is actually feeding me food!" Ken said angrily, "I'm so jealous! Inuyama, let me possess you, I want to eat too!"

Ignoring Ken's complaints, after finishing the remaining takoyaki, Inuyama Heita immediately changed the subject and said, "Should we go to the riverbank now? Everyone is there now."

Ono Haruna said, "Hey, why are you in such a hurry? Anyway, the two of them have already gone to take seats. Now that there are fewer people, isn't it a good time to visit those stalls that required queuing before?"

Suzuki agreed, "That's right, there's still more than an hour before the fireworks show, and there's nothing to do if we go now." Mainly because there were still a few snacks at the stalls that she hadn't tried yet.

"Okay..." Inuyama Heita said dejectedly. It was really tiring to carry all these things. He was about to continue shopping with the two girls, but he stopped because Ajian suddenly felt a familiar breath.

Ken asked in his ear: "Inuyama clan! It's Brother Otoko's aura! It's coming from the direction of the ghost realm over there!"

Inuyama Heita asked in a low voice: "Strange, logically speaking, Brother O's aura is not an evil spirit. You shouldn't be able to sense it from such a distance."

Ah Jian said: "I don't know either, but I can definitely feel Brother Yi's aura. He seems to be in trouble and has become a little weak."

As a ghost with intelligence, Jian's perception is more sensitive than that of ordinary psychics. Not only can he sense nearby ghosts, he can even clearly distinguish the breath of living people. However, Inuyama Heita still asked, "Are you mistaken?"

"Impossible?" Ah Jian said confidently, "I know your aura very well. There is no way I can mistake it. It's his aura! Now... he's so distant, as if he's fleeing in a hurry. Add to that the aura coming from the ghost realm. It's very likely that a powerful evil spirit is chasing him. You can also feel the aura of that evil spirit, right?"

Inuyama Heita nodded: "Yeah, it feels like she's on par with the slit-mouthed woman we met earlier. But... since she can't even beat Brother Otoko, we'll just be a hindrance if we go over there, right?"

"That's true." Jian said in a panic, "Let's get out of here quickly. It's best to find Kawasaki and have his driver take us away! Wait... I can feel Brother Yi's presence nearby! He seems to be escaping in this direction."

"What?!" Inuyama Heita couldn't remain calm. He said, "If it's just nearby, maybe we can go and take a look."

Ono Haruna turned around and said, "Inuyama, what are you daydreaming about? Let's go to the front and take a look. It seems there are stalls there."

"I'm sorry, Ono-senpai, Suzuki-san." Inuyama Heita said, "My stomach seems to be a little uncomfortable, maybe I ate too much... I'll be away for a while and will be back soon."

As he said that, he stuffed the things in his hand to the two of them and left in a hurry. Ono Haruna said speechlessly: "It seems that he is really in a hurry, but he obviously didn't eat much? Forget it, let's go there first."

She pointed to a lonely stall on another street and said.
