The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 600 Eye of the Storm (11)

"You mean, Brother O is still fighting the enemy?" Inuyama Heita blurted out: "I want to help him!"

Hoshiba asked, "What if this disrupts his plans? After all, he didn't want you to get involved in the first place."

Inuyama Heita said: "This shows that the plan is very dangerous, even for himself, so he did not take our strength into account, because Brother Otoko did not want to let others get hurt. He felt that this was his responsibility and should be solved by himself. But..."

Hoshiba Rang smiled and said, "But he didn't even ask for our opinions! We are not his subordinates or anything like that. He is not qualified to make choices for us, so... have you made up your mind, Heitaro? Even if it means ruining that guy's plan, we have to make him face up to our will and power?"

"Yes!" Inuyama Heita nodded firmly: "That's not a battle for him alone. It doesn't matter if he is blamed by Brother O."

Hoshiba laughed: "Although he is just a high school student, he is very generous, Heitaro~"

Inuyama Heita touched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Xingchang Rang said: "Then, let's hold a combat meeting. The first combat of the Kanto Exorcist Alliance, codename: [Save the Psychic Detective Qian Xiaoyi], is about to begin!"

……

"So, there are only a few of us in the alliance right now?" King Kong asked, "Isn't that a bit too shabby?"

In the empty ward next to Qian Xiaoyi, several exorcists gathered together to discuss how to save Qian Xiaoyi and bring back his soul.

Xingba Rang said: "Just think of it as a high-level meeting. Besides, those present are all powerful figures, especially Mr. Ashiya. Even if there are only a few people, no one dares to look down on this place."

Assistant Ashiya Yoshi held a cup of hot tea and sighed, "You woke me up in the middle of the night. Staying up late is not good for the elderly... My old bones were almost blown away by the wind."

Xingchang Rang smiled and said, "The old man is the leader of the alliance. It would be inappropriate for him not to be present at such an important occasion."

In the room, the Fushigi couple were also there. Compared to his wife's excitement and eagerness to try, Fushigi Yin had a headache. Not only the psychic detective and the heir of the Hoshiba family participated in this matter, but now even Mr. Ashiya had joined in.

What does this mean? The situation is very serious!
He felt like he had fallen into a huge, turbulent whirlpool, and if he wasn't careful he would be sucked in and unable to extricate himself.

So Fuki In raised his hand and said, "Well... since this is a combat meeting of your alliance, it would be better for me and I to avoid it, right?"

"Eh? Avoid? It's rare to have such an interesting thing." Fushigi Yoko showed a regretful expression, making Fushigi Yin look at her helplessly.

"No, you guys are right here." Nanajo Masato said, "I think Mr. Ashiya won't mind, and you guys can help with this matter."

Fuki Yin frowned: "Mr. Nanajo...there was no such item in our original contract."

He decided that even if Nanajo Masato paid more, he would not take the risk. Nanajo Masato sat on the chair, crossed his arms and said, "Qian Xiaoyi must not be in trouble. Mr. Ajian might be with him... Speaking of which, there is a clause in the contract that you must try your best to ensure my safety in terms of the supernatural during the contract period, right? So either I also participate in the battle, and you must ensure the safety of me, a burden, while fighting the enemy, or you agree to participate in the battle."

"I say, Mr. Nanajo..." Fuki Yin had a headache. He shouldn't have accepted the commission from this troublesome guy.

"I understand." Fushigi Yoko agreed directly, waving her fist and said, "We will participate in this operation! It feels very interesting. I haven't encountered such a commission for a long time."

"Yoko!" Fuki Yin was shocked, but since his wife had already said it, and seeing her interested look, he had no reason to refuse. He could only sigh and feel unhappy.

"Thank you." Nanajo Masato nodded: "I will give you enough compensation later."

Ashiya Yoshisuke said with a smile: "Then it is decided. With the two of you joining us, the success rate of this operation will undoubtedly be greatly improved...Rangjun, please start."

Xingba Rang nodded and said, "First, I want to tell you some speculated information I got from Qian Xiaoyi's assistant, Heitaro..."

Hoshiba briefly told the others about his previous conversation with Inuyama Heita, omitting some of the cognitive content.

"Mr. Qian is still fighting?" King Kong said excitedly: "Sure enough, he doesn't fall down so easily!"

Fu Mu Yin asked: "But what exactly is he going to do?" Since he has already joined, for the sake of safety, he must ask carefully.

"I don't know." Xingchang shook his head and said, "But one thing is certain, he is carrying out a very dangerous plan, so dangerous that there is a risk of death, so he excluded others and faced it alone. Our goal is to save him from his current state and make him reconsider our existence."

"That's right." Ashiya Yoshisuke said, "Mr. Qian is in a very dangerous state right now. I also know about this soul-leaving symptom. It's leaving one's body and letting the soul leave the body and enter the spirit world... According to the classics I've read, this behavior is called [walking in the spirit world] in China. If the soul doesn't return to the body within a certain period of time, it may never come back."

"But why did Brother Yi do this?" Inuyama Heita asked, "Isn't this very dangerous?"

Ashiya Jisuke said slowly: "Maybe it has something to do with the current celestial phenomena outside?"

"Celestial phenomena?" King Kong was a little confused.

Fuki Yin glanced out the window and said, "When this special celestial phenomenon occurs, the boundary between the spirit world and the real world will be blurred, the positive side of humans will be suppressed, and the negative side representing ghosts will be greatly strengthened. If a psychic is harmed by ghosts in this situation, the damage will be reflected in the physical body. I think the psychic detective may have this concern, so he simply abandons his body temporarily and fights in the spirit body, which is more convenient."

King Kong nodded, as if he had suddenly realized something: "So that's how it is. Is there such a thing?"

"Can we do this?" King Kong asked again.

"I suggest that you don't take this risky approach." Ashiya Jisuke shook his head. "In this kind of weather, if you go out as a spirit, you will be torn to pieces by the violent aura. I don't know how Qian Jun did it, but it's better for ordinary people not to try it."
