As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

As she silently chanted, the madness and pain that engulfed her like a tidal wave actually lessened.

What is the principle?

She paused for a moment, but whatever it was, as long as it was useful, it was good. The restlessness that had been lingering in her heart also dissipated somewhat.

She silently repeated the name dozens of times, and her mind immediately relaxed. The babbling faded away, and she felt a familiar yet strange drowsiness. Yuria quickly slumped onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep, but her latent spirit was still silently repeating the name, like a drowning person grasping at the last rope. If she let go, she would fall into an abyss.

Her consciousness seemed to have entered a primordial, chaotic secret realm.

This is why she dares not fall asleep, fearing that she might not wake up and her consciousness would dissipate. Her body cannot bear this kind of life, and she has developed dark circles under her eyes from staying up all night.

But now, as the name Yotsuya Miko resonates in her heart, she vaguely senses a strange connection. In this place where souls and thoughts cannot communicate, that connection transcends this space.

She seemed to see a sun, but it was not real, it was hazy.

……

In the realm of the mind, Kuroko gazed at the spiritual treasure above, which was emitting inexplicable fluctuations. It possessed an unparalleled divine power, vast and boundless. As the fluctuations disappeared into the space, its appearance became even more mysterious than before, occasionally flashing with white light, as if it were fighting against something.

She made the right move.

Kagura Tendou had also warned Miko, but Miko didn't believe she had that ability.

No wonder, this thing is really not something that low-level beings can access. Even if Jianzi is its vessel and can borrow its power, he will never be able to unleash its full potential.

Launching nuclear weapons also requires corresponding industrial components.

She did take a shortcut.

Kuroko stretched out her hand, making a gesture of support. She closed her eyes, seemingly imagining herself controlling the spiritual treasure and wreaking havoc on all sides.

She deduced that if that power were activated, even a single wisp would be enough to wipe out the world.

The gods of the spirit world? They're nothing but clay chickens and earthenware dogs.

……

When Yotsuya's mother saw that Miko had returned with Koka, she instructed her, "Society isn't very safe these days, so Miko shouldn't run around like that anymore."

Then she said to Yurikawa, "Xiaohua, your parents will worry too."

Baihechuan Hua looked embarrassed. She wasn't very good at lying to the elders who cared about her, but fortunately, her parents weren't actually very strict with her.

Jian Zi said calmly, "A classmate is sick, and Xiao Hua and I are worried about him."

"Really?" Yotsuya's mother was somewhat skeptical, suspecting it was just an excuse, so she looked at Yurikawa Hana.

Yurikawa Hana immediately nodded in agreement. Yotsuya's mother noticed Hana's pure eyes. She knew Hana's personality: harmless, innocent, and simple. She thought Hana wouldn't lie.

However, the clothes the child is wearing are all stretched too big.

Then, Yotsuya's mother continued, "Kimi, I've heard that many evil spirits have appeared. They eat people. You and Xiaohua need to be careful and not do anything dangerous..."

"I understand, Mom. By the way, where's Kyosuke?" Miko realized that her mother, Yotsuya, still had a lot to say, so she quickly changed the subject.

Speaking of this, Yotsuya's mother couldn't help but sigh, "Kyosuke went to a classmate's house."

Because schools are closed and Jianzi is often out, he can't stand being alone at home watching TV, so he probably won't come back tonight.

"Oh." Jianzi casually led Xiaohua upstairs.

As soon as she entered the room, Xiaohua couldn't wait to take off her clothes.

She had originally planned to go straight home to change her clothes, but after visiting Yuria, she ended up talking to Miko and somehow ended up coming back with her.

"Seeing Zi..." Xiao Hua, naked, pitifully rummaged through the wardrobe.

“You can’t wear my clothes.” Jianzi sighed. She was a normal size and well-developed, so why was she so much smaller than Xiaohua?

Their friendship is at the level of exchanging private photos with each other; they know each other inside and out.

"I'll go find you two of Mom's clothes." Jianzi said, about to draw the curtains, when she suddenly saw three Crown cars parked near the Yuanteng residence.

They were parked on the side of the road, not very noticeable.

But Zi frowned immediately. Having lived here for many years, she could tell at a glance that it was a car from out of town.

She went downstairs, found some clothes her mother no longer wore, threw them to Xiaohua, and then left the house, heading towards Yuanteng Residence.

Upon getting closer, Jianzi immediately realized there were other people inside the car. Based on the feedback from mental fluctuations, there should be seven adult men.

Is this surveillance?

Or is there some other motive?

Has anyone noticed Tendo Kagura?

Seeing that Zi had released her spiritual power, she was surprised to find that she didn't hear any distracting thoughts. These people were very focused, as if they were meditating.

She hasn't yet mastered Kuroko's secret techniques and can't silently extract anything from their minds.

Yotsuya Miko calmly arrived at the Endo residence, only to find it still empty.

She arrived at the door of the Yuanteng residence and, without hesitation, rang the doorbell.

No one came out of the room, but the people in the car seemed restless.

A burly man in a black suit opened the car door and got out of the driver's seat. He looked to be under thirty, with a shiny bald head and fierce eyes, giving off a very intimidating vibe.

"Young lady, do you know anyone who lives here?"

All gods, swiftly come to my aid! If anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu: Chapter Twenty-Two: Ise Kiriko

Yotsuya Miko was dressed casually, with her black hair flowing down her shoulders, her golden eyes gentle, and her demeanor natural, much like a resident of the neighborhood.

The spiritual healer was very sensitive to external information, and she realized that these people had appeared today and had come specifically to visit the Yuan Teng residence.

Yotsuya Miko looked at the tall, bald man in a suit and asked, "Who are you?"

The bald man in the suit seemed aware that his appearance was not pleasing, so he tried his best to be friendly. He didn't answer, but took out a photo from his pocket and showed it to Jianzi.

“We are looking for this person. Do you think she lives here? We knocked on the door earlier, but the house seemed to be empty.”

The background of the photo is rather blurry, as if it were taken from surveillance footage. The person in the photo is also not very clear; he is thin and short, and his facial features are vaguely recognizable. The most eye-catching feature is a gray-yellow butterfly hair clip on his head. He is currently following a young woman who is dragging a suitcase.

Ise Suzuka!

Seeing Zi stare intently at the person in the picture, his gaze slightly narrowed.

Her expression remained calm, without any emotional fluctuation, and she asked, "What do you want with her?"

This person is definitely not a good person. He looks like a member of the Yakuza. His sharp black suit can't hide his fierce aura. His arm muscles are thick and make the clothes very tight. He is tall and strong. His appearance alone can scare children. He has the standard villainous aura.

Even if you try your best to hide your fierce expression, a wolf can never pretend to be a little white rabbit.

The fundamental difference is even more apparent, especially for those who are aware of this.

Meanwhile, the bald man in the suit was carefully observing Jianzi's expression, trying to discern whether the girl in the picture really lived there.

But the girl was not afraid of him; she appeared relaxed and composed, with an extraordinary air about her.

Those golden eyes were even more expressive, shimmering with a golden light, as if they possessed a kind of magic.

Upon hearing Jianzi's question, the bald man in the suit immediately replied, "I don't know. We're only responsible for finding her whereabouts. For specifics, you'll have to ask..."

He paused slightly before finishing his sentence, then stopped talking.

what happened?

He had no reason to answer the girl's question.

This has nothing to do with passersby, and this information cannot be leaked, otherwise he will be in big trouble if it gets out.

The bald man in the suit sized up Jianzi and figured she might indeed have a good relationship with this family. Perhaps out of concern, he asked another question and said, "We're looking for her because we have good news."

The family has given orders to find someone; they are only responsible for completing tasks.

Unfortunately, the clues provided by the family were extremely limited. They didn't even know if the person existed. There was no name, information, background, or gender. They only gave a vague direction: that the person was related to a shrine maiden named Ise Kiriko from more than ten years ago.

However, information about that shaman is a taboo topic within the family, and after so many years, not many people know about her anymore. Those who do know are tight-lipped about it, saying that the matter is confidential and cannot be disclosed to the outside world.

They initially found it somewhat tricky because they had no idea where to begin investigating.

The person they're looking for is related to Ise Kiriko, but Ise Kiriko is someone they can't mention. However, the only way to find that person is by following Ise Kiriko, which is why they're stuck here.

But later they borrowed an ancient family genealogy, which recorded information about the shamans of past generations.

People may not speak, but written records do not lie.

The surname Ise is very special to the main family, and following this lead, they indeed found the name Ise Kiriko.

But it was no use; the priestess's life was sacrificed to the gods, and the trail went cold.

They traced her origins and found that she came from a village in the countryside. Because of her extraordinary talent, she was chosen to become a shrine maiden in her youth and changed her surname to Ise.

They went to the village to investigate and discovered that before Ise Kiriko became a shrine maiden, she had a childhood sweetheart. However, the innocent love of youth could not withstand the cruel reality. Ise Kiriko became a shrine maiden, and her childhood sweetheart also embarked on his own path in life.

Ultimately, he died in a car accident more than a year ago. Unfortunately, the clues went cold again.

But the man's mother is still alive; she is a well-known local shaman.

In their view, the old woman was indeed extraordinary and should have inherited the incomplete legacy of a psychic, but unfortunately she lacked the aptitude of a psychic.

They visited, but were not given a friendly reception.

The old woman coldly told them that she had forgotten about Kiriko.

They were very unwilling to give up, so they traveled all over the village, asked around, and even used their connections to find official information, but the results were all pretty much the same.

After Ise Kiriko left, she never returned. The old woman lived alone for many years, and her only son died in another city. She was very pitiful.

The trail ends here.

The person their family asked them to find didn't even exist, and they were almost ready to give up.

But then things suddenly took a turn for the better.

They had already mobilized a large amount of manpower and resources, but an investigation of this scale could not be stopped in a short time. In the end, they unexpectedly learned that their childhood sweetheart had married someone before she died.

They found true love in Kabukicho Ichiban-gai, saying they felt a calling from fate, and thus they got married.

It's nothing, everyone has to make do.

With so many couples, which one is truly in love?

The problem is, they discovered that in the family of the couple who committed suicide less than a day after their wedding, besides a boy named Tendo Kagura, there was also a girl named Ise Suzuka…
