Chapter 88 A Belated Accident (Chapter 2)
"Lord Yoomiya, may I ask if you set off those fireworks just now?" Kujo Sara asked bluntly. Because of her aggressive aura, the three children involuntarily hid behind Yoomiya.
"Of course, that's something I've been preparing for many days. How about it, isn't it great?" Xiaogong didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, so she admitted it directly.
Kujo Sara's expression changed slightly at this moment: "Can you tell me, who did you base your fireworks on?"
It's impossible for Yoomiya to make something like that without any reference points, so she must have seen Muzan Kibutsuji.
At this moment, Xiaogong finally realized that something was wrong: "That person was someone I saw on the street before. I thought his appearance was very special, so I remembered him and made him into fireworks."
Three children peeked out from behind her, puzzled. Why would Xiaogong say such a thing when he clearly knew Lianggong You?
But they didn't voice their question. Although they were just children, they knew that it was best not to speak in this situation and to leave everything to Xiaogong.
When did you meet the person you're talking about?
"I saw him in Hanamiban not long ago."
Is it daytime?
"of course."
If Yoomiya hadn't said those last two words, things would have been fine, but once she did, Kujo Sara could no longer believe her.
"You're lying, that guy can't move during the day at all!" Based on his long-standing deductions, Kujo Sara can conclude that Muzan Kibutsuji cannot move during the day because sunlight would cause him fatal damage.
Yoomiya didn't expect Kujo Sara to say that, and she wasn't lying, because the first time she met Suzumiya Yu was during the day.
To be precise, apart from today, every time she had seen him before, it was during the day.
“Miss Kujo Sara, I don’t understand why you’re saying such incomprehensible things. If there’s nothing else, we should head back.”
As Xiaogong led the three children to leave, the Tenryo Envoy squad, which had been left behind, rushed out.
"Surround them!" Kujo Sara immediately gave the order. This was the closest she had ever come to finding Muzan Kibutsuji's whereabouts, and she didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
Armed soldiers surrounded the four men. Xiaogong looked around and found no one who could save them.
The only way to escape now is to force his way out, but with three children in tow, Yomiya has no chance of getting away unscathed, not to mention Kujo Sara. Yomiya doesn't think he can defeat her.
"Miss Kujo Sara, what exactly do you want? If your only target is me, I can go with you, but please let these three children go." Yoomiya glanced at the three people behind her, Hiroichi and his companions, who were trembling with fear.
"In that case, you shall come with me." Kujo Sara waved her hand, and soon two soldiers stepped forward, restrained Yoomiya's hands, and brought her to her side.
Kujo Sara glanced at Yoomiya, whose face was full of resentment but also helplessness, and then said indifferently, "Take him away."
Afterwards, they took Yonomiya to the town magistrate's office to await his fate, but Kujo Sara and several soldiers did something else.
After Xiaogong was taken away, Hongyi and the others immediately ran away, and judging from their expressions, it seemed that they were going to find someone to help them.
Kujo Sara and the others followed behind the three children, heading towards the central area of Inazuma Castle.
......
Meanwhile, Suzumiya Yu and Kamisato Ayaka had explored almost the entire town, and now they were back near the wooden louvered teahouse.
It was getting late, and the fireworks display was gradually coming to an end. In a little while, people would probably be back to the busy work of urban reconstruction.
“Let’s stay at the Wooden Leak Tea House tonight,” Ayaka Kamisato suggested. If they were to return to Kamisato Residence now, they would probably not arrive until the next morning.
“Okay, I have no objection.” Ryou quickly agreed, as he hadn’t encountered any trouble all day, so he was in a pretty good mood.
But... accidents may be late, but they will never be absent.
"Big brother!"
Just as the two were about to go back, Daisuke's voice suddenly came. Ryou turned around and saw the three of them running towards them in a panic.
"What's wrong?" Although she already had a bad feeling, Suzumiya Yu wanted to see what had happened first.
"Sister Xiaogong...Sister Xiaogong has been kidnapped!"
"Arrested? Who did it?"
"It's...it's the guy wearing the clothes of the Heavenly Territory Magistrate."
Upon hearing this, Suzumiya Yu immediately understood what had happened.
"stop!"
He was just about to leave with Ayaka Kamisato and the others when he heard Sara Kujo's voice.
Her body stiffened instantly, and Suzumiya Yuu reached for the hilt of the sword at her waist.
However, he dared not make a move here, because that would implicate Ayaka Kamisato, and even the entire Kamisato family might be affected. He did not want to see that happen.
Because he was wearing a fox mask, Kujo Sara couldn't recognize him immediately. As long as Ayaka Kamisato could buy him some time, the crisis would naturally be resolved.
He had prepared a backup plan in advance to deal with this situation.
On the other side, when Kujo Sara saw Suzumiya Yu, she paused for a moment. She initially thought that the other party must be Kibutsuji Muzan, but after careful observation, she found that she could not sense the other party's aura at all.
There was no murderous intent, no anger, and no fear. The man in front of me, wearing a fox mask, was frighteningly calm.
But she, a seasoned veteran, wouldn't back down because of something like this.
"Arrest him!" Kujo Sara pointed at Suzumiya Yu, and the soldiers behind her immediately took action.
But at that moment, Ayaka Kamisato stepped forward.
"Miss Kujo Sara, although I don't know what happened, isn't what you're doing a bit too much?"
The appearance of Ayaka Kamisato immediately halted the actions of the soldiers. Her status was no lower than that of Sara Kujo, so even though they had received orders, they dared not act rashly.
“I’m very sorry, Miss Ayaka.” Kujo Sara stepped forward, first apologizing to Kamisato Ayaka, and then said, “I suspect that the person next to you may be someone that the Tenryo Magistrate has been looking for, so I would like to ask him to come with us.”
Chapter 89 Instant Kill (Third Update)
“I’m sorry, Miss Kujo Sara, he is my friend and a guest of the Kamisato family. If you wish to take him away, please ask your elder brother for permission. Only if your elder brother agrees can you take him away.”
Ayaka Kamisato's attitude was very firm, which made Sara Kujo very embarrassed.
The previous exposure of Kujo Takayuki's collusion with the Mujin clan caused the Kujo family's prestige in Inazuma to plummet, making it difficult for them to maintain their status as the leading family of the Tenryo magistrate.
What happened here has already attracted the attention of many pedestrians. If they had to choose, they would definitely stand on the side of Ayaka Kamisato, not for any other reason than that she is a member of the Kujo family.
“In that case, could you please ask your friend to remove his mask? I need to verify his identity by his appearance.” Left with no other option, Kujo Sara conceded. She knew the current situation was unfavorable to her, so this was the only way for now.
Moreover, if Ayaka Kamisato refuses to let Yui Suzumiya remove her mask, then they will become the ones with the problem.
Ayaka Kamisato was well aware of this, so she looked at Yui Suzumiya with some hesitation.
Ryouya Suzumiya looked at her, nodded, and then slowly reached for the mask on his face.
Kujo Sara's expression also tensed up at this moment. If the person in front of her was not Kibutsuji Muzan, she would have to apologize to Kamisato Ayaka.
However, just as Suzumiya Yu was about to remove her mask, a scream pierced the night sky.
Everyone's attention was drawn at that moment, including Kujo Sara.
"What happened?" She frowned slightly. Why would an accident happen at this time?
"Oniitsuji Muzan! It's Oniitsuji Muzan!"
Soon, someone in the crowd screamed, which caused everyone to start frantically fleeing.
Muzan Kibutsuji, a demon who has killed countless people, is the reason why most residents of Narukami Island dare not go out at night. Unexpectedly, he has now appeared directly in the city.
Panic and fear spread around, and the screams of pedestrians fleeing made one's eardrums ache.
"Damn it, of all times!" Kujo Sara cursed through gritted teeth. She looked towards the center of the crowd and saw a figure wearing a sea demon armor standing there.
Holding his katana, he remained completely calm even as he faced several soldiers under the command of the Heavenly Commander.
That was the night of the shaku. To prevent a situation like this from happening, Suzumiya Yu had him hide in a cave below Inazuma Castle beforehand.
Now that Suzumiya Yu is about to be discovered, it's naturally time for him to make his appearance.
Kujo Sara reached for the sword at her waist, preparing to fight Karasuya, but suddenly realized something was wrong.
It's too much of a coincidence, almost too much of a coincidence. If that person is Muzan Kibutsuji, then it's as if he appeared to help someone escape.
Thinking of this, Kujo Sara suddenly turned around, only to find that Suzumiya Yuu beside Kamisato Ayaka had disappeared. Looking into the distance, she saw that the other person had already run far away.
"Damn it!" Realizing she had been tricked, Kujo Sara hurriedly followed. Because everyone's attention was drawn to the sudden appearance of Kibutsuji Muzan, they didn't notice that Suzumiya Yu and Kujo Sara had disappeared.
......
The figure sped through the darkness. When he saw Kujo Sara catching up, Suzumiya Yu deliberately slowed down. He was quite pleased, because if Kujo Sara hadn't followed, things would have become very troublesome.
But if she followed him, things would be different. Not only would she not be able to kill him, but she would also become a part of his plan.
The two chased each other for a while, and finally stopped in a deserted wilderness.
"I didn't expect you to actually dare to catch up." Liang Gongyou stopped and slowly turned around, then took off her mask to reveal her face.
“If you had been calmer and chosen to stay in the city to deal with the emergency, you might have been able to trace my hiding place through the Kamisato family. But you chose to follow me.”
"In that case, be prepared to pay the price for your impulsive actions."
Slowly drawing his weapon, Suzumiya Yuu aimed the blade at Kujo Sara. He didn't act immediately, but simply stood there, still holding the sword.
"With so many lives on your hands, you can still leisurely attend the fireworks display. Although I don't know what methods you used to get so close to the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family, no matter what, I will not let you continue to commit such atrocities!"
Kujo Sara was furious. She couldn't understand why Kamisato Ayaka would be so close to someone like that. Kujo Takayuki was the same; they should all be loyal retainers of the Raiden General, so why were they behaving in such a baffling way?
“It seems you really want to avenge your subordinates,” Ryou said, pausing for a moment before a strange smile appeared on his face. “I suddenly have a brilliant idea.”
"Let me turn you into a ghost too, so that you will be like me before, forever living in the darkness, unable to survive unless you periodically devour flesh and blood."
It was hard to understand why Suzumiya Yui would say such a thing, and although she couldn't understand it, Kujo Sara was still very angry.
"Don't joke around! I would never become like you!"
After saying that, Kujo Sara's body transformed into a purple lightning bolt and instantly appeared in front of Suzumiya Yu.
With the blade imbued with the power of lightning, she slashed mercilessly at Suzumiya Yu.
"Not bad, what a pity..." Ryouji Yu shook her head as if in regret.
The next second, he unleashed a slash at an even faster speed.
"Water Breathing - First Form: Water Surface Slash!"
The blade swung forward in a straight slash, accompanied by a stream of water. Kujo Sara watched helplessly as her sword-wielding arm was severed, unable to react at all.
