I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 57 Curse
"Hello, Jinguji—"

"Cough cough!"

Asuhi saw Sanae coughing nearby.

Dong Yeyu looked back and forth between the two of them, "——Judge." The tone of this sentence was a little weak and there was some tentative meaning.

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami had a cold face and glared at Asumi Sanae, then nodded to Higashino Yu: "Hello, Higashino-kun." There was no fluctuation in his voice, just a simple polite greeting.

Is this the reinforcement Miss Witch called for?
It is said that he is a demon exorcist.

Higashino Yu looked at the girl who called herself Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami with some curiosity, his eyes moving back and forth on the beautiful katana at her waist.

This knife is good.

A excited heart, trembling hands, this is what a big fox should be like!
While coveting the equipment, Dong Ye Yu was also racking his brains to think about how he could get the magic out of her mouth.

I'm a student, teach me magic?
Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami vaguely sensed Higashino Yu's gaze, especially the gaze circling back and forth around her waist.

It was as if my eyes were stuck to something or attracted by a strong magnet.

"Tono-kun!"

She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, frowned, and scolded coldly.

Huh? Can't I just look at the knife?

It could also be a misunderstanding. It is indeed impolite to stare at someone.

Dong Ye Yu thought about it, then lowered his head with regret, his eyes full of loneliness.

The dim light from the street lamp fell on his profile, and the shadow covered it like a veil, adding a touch of mystery to the profile that looked like a sculpture by an ancient artist.

He apologized in disappointment: "I'm sorry, Judge Jinguji. I'm quite interested in swords, so I just wanted to take a closer look at your sword. I have no ill intentions."

The bad fox doesn't blush when he tells lies.

"I also have a wakizashi in my collection, but it's just a few dozen, and its quality and workmanship are average."

As he spoke, his tone turned a little excited, as if he was a plastic artist fanatic who was impressed by the work of a plastic artist giant.

"And your sword has an elegant and gorgeous appearance. The scabbard is painted with an autumn red maple pattern in superb painting, and the handle is also made of pearl fish skin, and there are golden maple leaves engraved on it!"

"The beauty of the blade can be seen from the scabbard alone. Both the craftsmanship and craftsmanship are at the highest level and can be called a work of art!"

"Excuse me--"

Higashino Yu's eyes fell on the katana and his voice became a little softer, as if if he spoke a little louder the ears through the wall would hear it.

"Excuse me, is this the legendary sword? Can I be lucky enough to learn its name?"

Aren't you looking at me? Jinguji Hiiragi's eyes flickered and her red lips pursed slightly.

After hearing the praises of the family heirloom sword, coupled with the man's pure love for swords, the disgust he felt dissipated a lot.

But she still didn't say much, just said: "It's just a family heirloom, it's not a famous sword."

"Is that so?" Dong Ye Yu sighed, his disappointed emotion evident in his words.

"Kuo-Kuang enters the path with one mind."

The girl was silent for a moment, and then added in a cold voice.

"Good name!"

Higashino Yu exclaimed, saying that this knife must be worth several million yen.

Named after "Rudao", it is basically a masterpiece of a craftsman. Most knives would not dare to have such an inscription.

Her Highness the Moon Witch was very dissatisfied with the fact that her knight and the Eclipse Inquisitor were chatting so happily, and she pouted.

Noticing the blood on Higashino Yu's body, he strolled between Higashino Yu and Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami.

"There's blood on your body? It must have been stained accidentally when you were charging into battle for me. Thank you for your hard work, my loyal knight."

Dong Ye Yu felt a little regretful that his first communication with the magic teacher was interrupted.

But if the interrupter is the Witch, then
Good interruption!

"No, my highness." Higashino Yu was stunned for a second when he heard Asumi Sanae's words, "This is old lady Sakurada's blood."

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Asumimi Sanae: Huh?

Natsuko Shida looked at Higashino Yu blankly and asked, "What did you do?"
The other bodyguards were also stunned, looking at each other in bewilderment. Was this man a murderer? "Should we call the police?" One bodyguard elbowed his companion.

I didn't go there. My companions had never encountered such a scene.

Dong Ye Yu noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange. Several people looked at him as if he were a murderer.

So he took the initiative to walk out of the yard, and the blood on his body immediately dissipated like ashes.

"This is not human blood," he explained.

Asu saw Sanae approaching with some curiosity, and even wanted to touch the blood-stained part of Higashino Yu's body to investigate.

Although I knew that I had encountered the legendary soul today, I didn't really see anything mysterious.

When asked what she saw at Sakurada's house, Natsuko Sugida refused to say.

This scene before her eyes was what really excited Asumi Sanae. This was her first time seeing the supernatural.

She looked at Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami behind her.

"That is the blood of the soul."

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami explained, "It is the soul that escapes when the dead are traumatized. What happened in that house?"

She turned her gaze to Higashino Yu.

Higashino Yu then briefly told the story of the old lady, and Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami nodded thoughtfully after listening.

"Did the dark-fated man of the night suffer such pain?"

"She must be waiting for the moonlight that has existed since the beginning of the world to save her."

Ming saw Sanae talking to herself and walked quickly into the yard.

Seeing the young lady about to enter the house, Natsuko Sugida's face turned pale, but when she thought of how she had confronted the head of the family at home during the day, she sighed.

He simply assigned the tasks and only left a few bodyguards outside to be on guard. The others took up their weapons and followed him into the Sakurada family.

Everyone turned on their flashlights and went to the bedroom, where they saw Sakurada Wakako lying on the floor.

Her condition seemed to be much better at this time. The dagger in her chest became transparent and the blood did not flow much.

Natsuko Sugida's face turned even paler, and her plump, straight legs trembled a little.

The bodyguards also swallowed their saliva, this was a real ghost.

The blood that flowed to the floor did not coagulate. When the flashlight shone there, the ground was covered with bright red blood, making it impossible to step.

Just as the bodyguards were standing at the door hesitating, Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami walked into the bedroom calmly. Her white socks were stained with blood, turning a seductive red color.

She knelt on one knee beside the old lady and examined her carefully. Her brows were furrowed, but her expression did not seem to show surprise or unexpectedness.

"Inquisitor Eclipse, what's the situation?" Asumi Sanae also followed in and squatted beside him.

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami looked at the haggard old lady, and a trace of pity appeared on his cold little face.

"She should have been taken away by the underworld messenger after her death and reincarnated like all the deceased. But a certain existence prevented this process."

When Asumi Sanae heard this, Toizumi's misty eyes lit up and she asked softly, "Is it a certain god? He actually gave the blessing to old lady Sakurada before I did."

“This is not a blessing.”

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami seemed to see through what Asumi Sanae was thinking and warned her with a serious look.

"The dead enter the cycle of reincarnation. If they linger on, it violates the principles of heaven and earth, and they will fall into a miserable situation like now."

"Then it seems that he is just a false god."

Asuhi saw Sanae was stubborn and whispered, "The people of the night must naturally be redeemed by the guardian of the night."

As expected of a professional demon hunter, he could tell Mrs. Sakurada’s condition at a glance, but he never expected that this little blessed land was actually created by God.

Dong Yeyu knelt beside him and listened. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "So, Mrs. Sakurada became like this because that god had good intentions but did something bad?"

Jinguji Hiiragi Kagami looked up at the roof with a complicated expression.

"He created this place to continuously gather the spiritual energy from the surroundings so that her soul would not dissipate in endless torture."

"But what's the point of this? It's more of a curse than a blessing."
