The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 620 Eye of the Storm (31)

"Please make way!"

A group of medical staff escorted the patient on a stretcher and hurried past Shichijo Masato. On the stretcher, Fushiki Yoko, who was full of energy in daytime, was now pale with her eyes closed, and her life was in danger.

"Yoko...Yoko..." The soaked Fushigi In followed the stretcher with lifeless eyes, and was then blocked outside the emergency room, looking distraught.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..." King Kong's voice came from the other room. He should be stitching the wound on his shoulder.

Apart from them, the rest of the people were also injured to some extent.

Hoshiba had a bandage on his head, Inuyama Heita's T-shirt was torn and covered with tiny scratches, and there were several Band-Aids on his face. Although both of them were not seriously injured, they looked quite miserable.

And there is this guy Qian Xiaoyi, who is still lying in bed with bandages wrapped around his body.

Looking at this miserable scene, Nanajo Masato's chest heaved a little. He finally realized that not only was he in a difficult situation, but the others were already walking on the brink of life and death and could encounter danger at any time. This made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

"This is really... a tragic victory." Qian Xiaoyi's shadow hugged his chest, floating aside and shaking his head.

"You call this a victory?" Nanajo Masato turned around and asked, "Now that someone's life or death is in doubt, how can this be considered a victory?"

He was a little puzzled as to why Qian Xiaoyi and the others would risk their lives to do such a thing.

Qian Xiaoyi stared at him and said word by word: "This is victory. This is our victory over the hundred ghosts. It is the result of our struggle. No matter how miserable this result looks, we will not regret it."

Shichijo Masato was shocked by Qian Xiaoyi's unshakable gaze and couldn't help but take a step back. He looked at Inuyama Heita and Hoshiba Rang. There might be a trace of sadness and fear on their faces, but there was no regret. Instead, there was a kind of indifference as if they had seen through life and death.

So Nanajo Masato frowned and asked Qian Xiaoyi: "But... is it worth it to do this? You might really die! Look at Miss Yoko! She looks like this now..."

"Shut up!" Fumu Yin walked up to Shichijo Masato, grabbed his collar, and said through gritted teeth: "If it weren't for you..."

"Hey, don't be impulsive." Hoshiba Rang and Inuyama Heita quickly came up to stop him.

Nanajo Masato was silent for a while, then said, "I'm sorry..."

"What are you arguing about?" The nurse came over and said, "This is not the place for you to quarrel. If you want to quarrel, please leave!"

Fuki Yin let go of Shichijo Masato's collar, sat on the stool, holding his head, looking very painful.

Nanajo Masato sighed. He had already heard what happened from Inuyama Heita. Although he didn't think it was entirely his fault, he shouldn't add fuel to the fire in this situation. He did give the order to give priority to Mr. Ken.

Looking at the miserable condition of so many wounded people and Fushiki Yoko who was being rescued in the emergency room, Nanajo Masato became a little scared.

"Hundred ghosts..." Nanajo Masato took a deep breath. Only now did he vaguely understand what Qian Xiaoyi... no, what the behemoth they were facing meant.

At this moment, Qian Xiaoyi's expression suddenly changed and he said, "There's someone next to me!"

As he spoke, his shadow disappeared like a soap bubble.

Upon hearing this, Nanajo Masato looked at Hoshiba Jun and Inuyama Heita, then quickly left and ran towards the ward.

In Qian Xiaoyi's ward, his body was still lying quietly on the bed. After the battle, Ashiya Yoshisuke had left the hospital because he had to contact other exorcists and investigate the identities of the new enemies. At this time, Qian Xiaoyi was alone in the ward.

At some point, a man appeared outside the room. He stood at the door, staring at Qian Xiaoyi's face carefully. He slowly left when he heard footsteps.

"Who is it?!" The three rushed to the ward, but didn't see anyone coming.

Until Qian Xiaoyi on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "Do you know an old man with a burn on his face?"

"It's... Master Axin!" Nanajo Masato asked in surprise, "Was it him just now? Why did he come here? Did he want to attack you?"

Qian Xiaoyi sat up against the bed. He recalled what had just happened and seemed to feel a creepy murderous intent.

He shook his head and said, "...I don't know, but now that everyone is here and the matter of the Blue Ghost has been resolved, it's time to discuss your family's affairs."

"Wait...you just woke up, are you okay?" asked Nanajo Masato.

Xingba Rangye said, "You were still having a fever before, do you want a nurse to come and check it out?"

"Yes, Brother Otoshi." Inuyama Heita said, "I'll go find the nurse right away!"

Having said that, he ran out.

Qian Xiaoyi said helplessly: "I have come back to life, so everything should be fine, right?"

However, seeing that the others insisted, Qian Xiaoyi still accepted their kindness.

After the nurse gave Qian Xiaoyi a full body examination, the nurse said that his body temperature had begun to drop. Although he still had a low fever, his health had begun to improve.

After King Kong had his stitches done, he returned here with a bandage on his shoulder.

"Everyone is really here." King Kong grinned and said, "I was wondering why everyone disappeared as soon as I came out. Mr. Qian has also woken up. That's great."

"How is Miss Yoko doing?" asked Nanajo Masato.

King Kong touched his head and said, "They said the surgery has been completed. Now it depends on whether she can make it through it."

"I hope he is safe and sound." Qian Xiaoyi said, holding a medicine bottle in his hand, "Well, without further ado, let's discuss the matter of the Qijiao Financial Group. Zhengren, tell everyone what happened recently."

Nanajo Masato nodded. After experiencing this incident, he witnessed the injuries of everyone with his own eyes. He seemed much calmer now, and told the others everything that had happened in his family.

After listening to Nanajo Masato's story, Hoshiba Rang said, "It sounds really dangerous... To be honest, Mr. Nanajo, what you did before was indeed a bit impulsive, but it's not your fault. It may be because your eyes were suddenly opened, plus the influence of being possessed, that interfered with your emotions."

King Kong also advised: "I believe Mr. Qian also has good intentions. If you continue like that, your behavior is likely to cause an accident."

Nanajo Masato also sighed: "I know... but everyone around me was forcing me to make a choice, so I couldn't help it..."

Qian Xiaoyi nodded: "So this time, so many of us will come together to help you solve this problem."

"How to solve it?" Nanajo Masato said with a bitter face: "Such a huge curse, I really don't know what method to use except Mr. Ken... Is there any other way?"

"Yes." Qian Xiaoyi said, "There is a way to wake up your grandfather even without Ajian."
