The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 556: Exorcist and Curse (2)

After thinking for a long time, Nanajo Masato finally called Qian Xiaoyi again.

"Xiao Yi, please help me!" Qijo Masato said anxiously on the phone, "It's a curse! After drinking the medicine boiled by Grandpa Axin, my grandfather has been in a coma. Even the doctors can't find the specific reason, but I know why. It's a curse! Grandpa Axin cursed my grandfather! Just like what you showed me before, those black auras..."

He was a little incoherent, and excitedly told Qian Xiaoyi everything he had seen, and then said: "I need your help!"

Facing Nanajo Masato's request for help, Qian Xiaoyi sighed and asked, "If it's about removing the curse on you, I can do it..."

"That's not it!" Nanajo Masato shouted excitedly, "That's only a temporary solution! I hope you can save my grandfather!"

"I have a question. Can I get close to your grandfather?" Qian Xiaoyi said, "What identity should I use to get close to him? If I want to investigate the people around him, what reason should I use to do it? According to what you said, if the murderer is your grandfather's confidant, I don't even have the qualifications to get close to him, right? And the investigation will be very troublesome."

Nanajo Masato said: "It's very simple. I can arrange a position for you in the consortium so that you can follow me..."

"So... is joining your organization the only option?" Qian Xiaoyi said decisively, "Please allow me to refuse."

"Why? Why?" Nanajo Masato was a little angry.

Qian Xiaoyi could only remain silent. After knowing that Nanajo Hiroshi was the Yamada who brought Jingde to Japan, he didn't dare to approach him rashly. That would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. He didn't even know what Nanajo Masato's current situation was. Was he pretending, or was he really anxious?
"I understand!" Hearing the silence from the other side, Shichijo Masato said quickly: "I will give you the commission money I owe you. On top of the 100 million yen, I can add a little more! As long as you are willing to help me, I will give you as much as you want..."

"No, I will not join your consortium." Qian Xiaoyi said coldly: "Also, please don't transfer the commission money to me. Even if you do, I won't accept it."

Accepting money from the enemy? It was too dangerous. He was even a little glad that Nanajo Masato didn't give him the money.

"I misjudged you!" Shichijo Masato yelled, "How can you be so cold-blooded!"

Qian Xiaoyi did not argue. He reminded: "I'll give you a piece of advice. If you really want to be safe, you can consider leaving the Seventh Financial Group and stay away from there. This is your only way to save yourself now. As for your grandfather, I can't do anything about it now. Sorry."

Then he hung up the phone.

Nanajo Masato was stunned where he stood. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "What are you talking about... How can I leave the consortium? Give up my family? Damn it, even if you're not here, aren't there other exorcists? I will definitely find a way!"

He began to look for other exorcists through introductions from acquaintances.

But the problem is that real psychics like Qian Xiaoyi are actually very rare in the entire industry. Most of the people on the market are scammers who try to defraud people of their money. It is easy to find fakes if you don't have connections.

Qijiao Zhengren didn't have so much time to check one by one. He first found the few people who had cooperated with Qian Xiaoyi to defeat Laishan. Those people were definitely not fakes, otherwise Qian Xiaoyi would not have found them. But after knowing Qijiao Zhengren's current troubles and even Qian Xiaoyi rejected him, no one dared to take this job. They knew Qian Xiaoyi's ability too well. If even Qian Xiaoyi couldn't handle it, then they probably didn't have much to do. Besides, they were not experts in studying curses.

In the end, it was the man named Hoshiba Ryou who recommended a colleague and told Shichijo Masato that he could go there and try.

So, Shichijo Masato put on casual clothes and went to an unremarkable exorcism agency according to the address given by Hoshiba.

"Well, please tell me your problem, guest." Inside the office, a man with a gloomy and decadent expression sat on the sofa opposite Shichijo Masato. He was wearing a black and gray casual suit, with faint dark circles and stubble on his face. He looked more like a detective than Qian Xiaoyi.

His name is Fuki Yin, and he is an exorcist.

"Please have some tea." A young woman with a neat ponytail and wearing a white sports jacket placed the teacup on the table, then leaned on the sofa where Fuki Yin was sitting, and looked at Shichijo Masato with great interest.

Nanajo Masato thanked him and asked, "Who is this..."

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce her." Fumu Yin scratched his head and said weakly, "This is my wife, Fumu Yoko. Our firm is a husband-and-wife business, so she is not an outsider. You don't have to care about her. Just treat her as air. Just tell me your difficulties, customer."

"What do you mean by treating me like air? That's too much!" Fushigi Yoko grabbed Fushigi Yin's face and said unhappily, "I am also interested in this commission, okay? This is the heir to the famous Nanajo Group. Don't you know him, husband?"

Fumu Yin had no expression on his face, his skin was stretched out of shape, he said calmly: "Customer, please ignore her, let's continue."

Seeing that Fushigi Yin dared to ignore her, Fushigi Yoko made trouble even more vigorously.

Nanajo Masato was a little dumbfounded, but he just thought that these real exorcists had some quirks and didn't take it too seriously. After all, even Qian Xiaoyi didn't look like a real exorcist, and he was used to it.

So Shichijo Masato told Fushigi Yin about his own experience, removing the information about the consortium and only selecting the part about the curse. Fushigi Yoko listened attentively and finally let go of his face.

"A curse? It does sound like one." Fumu Yin said with a slightly red and swollen cheek, "But sir, why are you so sure it's a curse? It sounds like you seem to be somewhat familiar with this situation."

Nanajo Masato gritted his teeth and said, "This is because I... The curse in my body was once released before, but it was removed by another exorcist. This time I contacted him, but that guy said he couldn't help me, so I came here."

"I see." Fumu Yin nodded, and then said: "If it is true as you said, the source of the curse is next to you, then the most important thing is to find out how the other party cursed you."
