The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 711 Hope and Despair (14)

Inuyama Heita woke up in the morning of the next day. He felt a sharp pain in his head, as if he had been beaten repeatedly with a hammer.

"Hiss..." He looked at the familiar ceiling, his mind a little confused. It took him a long time to recall what happened last night.

"I remember..." He sat up from the bed and recalled, "I met the enemies of the Hope Church last night... Mr. Nanajo and I were both attacked? Then..."

His memory lasted until he was sealed by the enemy with that strange power, and then when he opened his eyes, he was here.

However, when he thought of the three words "Hope Church", an inexplicable hatred surged in his heart, which he had never experienced before.

Inuyama Heita covered his head and walked out of the room, then saw Shichijo Masato.

"Ah, you're awake?" Nanajo Masato said, "There's breakfast on the table... Are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Inuyama Heita nodded: "I'm fine, thank you... By the way, Mr. Nanajo, about what happened last night..."

"Xiao Yi arrived in time." Nanajo Masato said quickly, "He saved us. It was really thrilling... We should not run around at night in the future. Those people actually dared to do this on the street. They are really crazy."

"Is it Brother Yi?" Inuyama Heita recalled carefully and finally remembered a little bit of memory. In the end, it was indeed Qian Xiaoyi's face that appeared in front of him.

So Inuyama Heita breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay... By the way, where is Mr. Ken?"

"I'm here." Ajian slowly came out from behind him and said, "Inuyama, you almost scared me to death last night. That look..."

Noticing Nanajo Masato's warning look, Ken immediately changed the subject and said, "You looked like you were going to be killed by the enemy."

"I'm sorry to have made you worry." Inuyama Heita said, "But everything is fine now."

Nanajo Masato said: "But it seems that my part-time job will have to be suspended for a while... these cultists are too rampant!"

"So we must defeat them as soon as possible." Inuyama Heita clenched his fists: "Otherwise they may use more despicable means to deal with us."

Seeing that Inuyama Heita was in a state that was a little different from usual, Nanajo Masato and Aken looked at each other and didn't dare to speak.

……

"That's the situation. Although his body seems fine..." Nanajo Masato secretly called outside the apartment building to report on Inuyama Heita's recent situation: "But it seems that his mental state seems to be a bit problematic."

On the other end, Qian Xiaoyi asked curiously, "Are there any special changes?"

Nanajo Masato said, "It seems that when the topic of Hope Cult is brought up, he becomes a little... gloomy? Even Ken said that he sensed murderous intent... But Otoko, although it's not nice to say this, is the enemy crazy? How dare he do this."

"I was a little confused at first, but now I understand..." Qian Xiaoyi said, "Someone else is crazy, and it may be related to you... I'm dealing with something here, I'll contact you later, please help me keep an eye on Heitaro, don't let him go out alone."

"I understand." Nanajo Masato hung up the phone with some confusion.

After Qian Xiaoyi hung up the phone, he looked at Xing Changrang and said, "So you're saying... your demon sword was stolen?"

He is now in the warehouse of Xingchang's family, which is also the grocery store owned by Xingchang.

"It's not stealing, it's forced buying and selling." Xing Changrang rubbed the back of his head and said, "This matter is really serious. It may destroy the alliance's plan..." The reason why Qian Xiaoyi came here was because Xing Changrang told him an emergency.

——Fuki Yin came to his shop yesterday, forcibly bought the demon sword [Blood Sakura] from the Hoshiba family, threw down the money and left.

"You don't know, that guy is crazy." Xingba Ran complained, holding the back of his painful head. "He came to buy something yesterday afternoon. I thought he had made up his mind to step out of the shadows because of Miss Yoko's incident and join the alliance to fight against the Hundred Demons with us. So I greeted him warmly, but when I turned around to get the things, he suddenly attacked me and knocked me out. When I woke up, I saw the money on the table."

Qian Xiaoyi asked: "And then you discovered that something was missing from the store?"

Xingchang pointed to the knife rack beside him and said, "The knives are right there. You know, my store is a membership-based store, and the people who can come in are all exorcists I approve of, so I didn't take any precautions. Who would have thought he would be so cruel?"

Qian Xiaoyi nodded. He had been here many times. It was true. The magic sword had been placed aside as the treasure of the store. If Xingchang was in a clear mind, he would never sell it to those with mental problems or those who could not control themselves, and Fumu Yin seemed to be one of them.

I guess he understood this himself, so he just forced the sale.

Qian Xiaoyi had not heard from Fushigi Inoue since the battle on the night of the typhoon. Ashiya Yoshisuke also went to find him, hoping that he could join the Kanto Exorcist Alliance so that everyone could help him deal with the situation of his unconscious wife and discuss countermeasures together.

But ever since Fushigi Yoko was stabbed and turned into a vegetable, Fushigi Yin has been in a state of despair and has had no reaction to Ashiya Yoshisuke's proposal until now.

"It's not a big deal that he stole my knife." Xingchang Rang said, "We are all acquaintances in the circle, so it's fine to take it. He is strong enough to use the knife. But the problem is... he did something terrible with the knife yesterday..."

Qian Xiaoyi sighed: "Did he attack those who wanted to teach?"

"That's right." Xingchang Rang said, "It should be that the news of the alliance's attack on the Church of Hope reached his ears, which may include information about the gathering place of the senior members of the Church of Hope. Just yesterday, he killed several members of the Church of Hope, including two [Saints], and he did it in a massacre."

After a pause, Xingba said seriously: "He has been killing all night."

Qian Xiaoyi muttered strangely: "No wonder..."

He also understood why the enemy had become so extreme. Even marginal figures like Inuyama Heita who had not shown up were targeted. It turned out that he was an innocent innocent.

If any senior member was killed like this, they would be unable to bear it.

"Where is Fu Muyin now?" Qian Xiaoyi asked, "Have you found him?"

Xingchang Rang sighed and said, "How can it be so fast? That guy is a very smart exorcist. He is quite powerful and has a clear mind. He is probably hiding somewhere, preparing to attack the next senior member of the Church of Hope. This guy has been completely blinded by revenge..."

Qian Xiaoyi felt a little strange when he heard the news.

Before, they hoped that the sect would bring out the green ghost and have it attack them, the exorcists.

And now, there is also a "green ghost" on their side, which makes the Hope Church panic.

The position has completely changed.

“Although I don’t feel bad about the deaths of those cultists…” Qian Xiaoyi said, “But we must stop Fumu Yin from continuing to kill. We are not ready for a decisive battle. If he continues to provoke those cultists, they may take more radical revenge against the alliance.”
