She shook her head, turned her gaze to the table, and her expression changed when she saw the image on the tarot card.

"grim Reaper!?"

This tarot card also appeared in Wakayama City last time.

But the meaning is completely different.

The question Ye Xing raised last time was about the identity of the next person who might become an assistant.

The three tarot cards drawn were merely clues to my identity.

Regarding the question of what the club will face in the future, the Death Tarot card may represent the simplest and most original symbolic meaning.

death.

Within the organization, some members will die.

The godmother forced a smile and waved her hand to explain.

"This... Death card doesn't necessarily represent death itself. It can also be interpreted as you facing a life-or-death choice in the future, or someone around you... this, that..."

The godmother and mother-in-law could no longer smooth things over.

No matter how you interpret it, the outcome revealed by the Death Tarot card in this matter cannot be interpreted as positive.

Alternatively, members of the Overload Society might encounter a danger that could lead to their death.

Or, someone close to you will appear in your life who is about to die.

It's really hard to smooth things over...

"Death...?"

Even as the image of Death was turned over, Ye Xing's expression remained calm.

For members of the Overload Society, death is nothing new.

If I were to force an explanation...

The act of exorcism itself involves contact with "death".

What's all the fuss about?

only...

To confirm his suspicions, Yoru looked at Oda Noto.

"Are there any rumors of paranormal events in Kyoto lately?"

Although Oda Noto doesn't have any cases right now, as a veteran exorcist in the industry, he has a lot of sources of information.

"A paranormal event..."

Oda Noto lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.

"Leaving aside those outrageous and obviously fake rumors... well... there is one thing that is worth paying attention to."

As if suddenly remembering something, Oda Noto's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, a smile appeared on his old face, he flicked his cigarette ash, and said unhurriedly.

"It is said that recently, there have been a lot of hospitalized patients at Kyoto City Hospital, and their figures can be seen wandering in the corridors late at night."

"It is said that the face of the person who lingered there looked exactly like that of the patient who died that day."

"However, those so-called ghosts did not cause any trouble for anyone, so no one came to ask for exorcisms; it was just a rumor."

After listening to Oda Noto's words, Yohoshi nodded noncommittally.

Is it possible for normal people to observe the spirits of the dead?

No, those hospitalized patients probably aren't normal either.

Why have there been so many paranormal events in hospitals throughout history?

One reason is that people frequently die in hospitals.

On the other hand, those who go to the hospital are people who are already suffering from illnesses and are physically weak.

From the perspective of a psychic, it means someone whose life force has weakened.

Under certain specific conditions, they may indeed be able to observe the souls of humans after they die.

The issue is.

Isn't the frequency of these paranormal events a bit too high?

It wasn't just one hospitalized patient; many people could see it, and what was lingering there wasn't just one deceased soul.

There's something fishy about this.

Ye Xing made a mental note of this.

Then, he looked at Yurikawa Hana and said calmly.

"Let's reveal the second card."

"okay."

Although Yuri Kawana didn't know the meaning of the tarot cards, she could tell from her godmother's words that the first card she revealed didn't seem to foreshadow anything good.

This made her feel guilty.

I definitely need to work harder on the second one!

Baihechuan took a deep breath and slowly unveiled the second tarot card placed on the table.

Upon seeing the image on the second tarot card, the godmother was initially taken aback, but then breathed a sigh of relief.

so far so good.

Finally, I found one that's even better than the last one...

That's not right either.

In this divination, there is no worse card than the "Death" card.

The bad news is that the worst has already been revealed.

Good news, the ones after this one are all better than this one.

A rebound after hitting bottom.

The godmother slowly began to analyze.

"The Moon card has many meanings, but the main one is confusion and uncertainty."

"The revelation of this card means that your group may face a certain choice in the future."

Ye Xing looked thoughtful and asked in return.

"Is it possible that this moon represents someone our club will meet in the future?"

The godmother paused for a moment, then laughed.

"That's a valid explanation, but it has to be someone who has the opportunity to interact with all members of your club, not just one particular member."

"I see."

Ye Xing thought that if his guess was correct, he could only think of one person who could represent the "Moon" card.

Not only her confused and uncertain background, but also her name, perfectly match the "moon".

"The third one, lift it up."

"Ah."

Baihechuan took a deep breath and slowly revealed the third tarot card.

What came into view was the card that Night Star most wanted to see.

The Hanged Man, also known as the Upside-Down Man.

"This card... this card means..."

Before the godmother could finish speaking, Ye Xing waved his hand to interrupt.

"I know about self-sacrifice and dedication, right?"

"Wow, you're quite knowledgeable."

"Know a thing or two."

Yoruichi and Mai Sakurajima, who was standing to the side, exchanged a glance.

Both of them could guess that if the revealed tarot card referred to a specific person, it must be...

Yuigahama Yui.

To be honest, Kawasaki Saki, who chose to work hard to ease the burden on her family, and Yukino Yukinoshita, who chose to help others to do what she believed was right, both fit the definition of the Hanged Man card.

but.

She's not as well-suited as Yui Yuigahama.

"Thank you very much."

Ye Xing first nodded to his godmother, then looked at Baihechuan Hua and smiled.

"Thank you for your hard work, Yurikawa-kun."

"Didn't I already say, just call me Hua?"

"Alright, thank you for your hard work, Hua."

Mai Sakurajima lightly pinched Yosei's waist without making a sound, and said softly with a smile.

"You're really going to yell?"

Night Star replied with a smile.

"It's okay, I'll call now, and then it'll be your turn to call later."

Mai Sakurajima's pretty face flushed red, and she spat lightly.

"Yurikawa-kun is still here, don't talk nonsense."

"she?"

Ye Xing glanced at Bai Hechuan Hua, whose eyes were filled with innocent and adorable charm.
