Reincarnation Paradise: Giant Treasure Chest

"Allow me to take care of my affairs after death!" Policeman Zaohui ignored the persuasion and knelt down solemnly to Avia.

.........

Zhudu, formerly known as Kyoto, launched an invasion war against the big country in the east when this area was still a country in the past. As a result, the war was lost and the country was counterattacked back to its homeland.

Kyoto, a major city, was destroyed by a fire set by a general named Zhu. Postwar reconstructions often used red paint and incorporated the general's surname, leading to the name change. (It's a shame we didn't start the fire.)

Today, this area and the areas further north have been incorporated and are called Dongyi Road and Liaodong Road respectively.

Zhudu is a very famous tourist destination in this area and is also the location of Ivia's promotion mission target.

Before leaving, the proprietress of Wu Tiao agreed to Avia's proposal, but because the image of the medicine seller was too eye-catching, the proprietress of Wu Tiao asked her daughter to wait for a few days and let her daughter go with Zaohui who was handling the funeral.

Aivia arrived in Zhudu alone by train.

From the moment she boarded the train, promotions for the tourist city of Zhudu were posted all over Ivia's face. Whether it was the advertisements on the seats or the tourist souvenirs, they all bore the characteristics of Zhudu's attractions.

The train attendants were also very talkative and kept telling stories about Zhudu's history and culture.

But when Ivia stepped into the station in Zhudu, Samsara Paradise sent a notification.

[The contractor has entered a high-risk area and is being corroded by foul air. Willpower -3 has been determined to have failed.]

【Determining...】

[Judgment passed, the contractor was not corroded by the foul air]

Aivia looked at the clear sky of Zhudu and released her perception. Now she was sure that this world must have been specially customized for her by the Samsara Paradise.

Zhudu, a peaceful tourist city with considerate service and numerous scenic spots, has a blue sky. However, in Avia's perception, it is all covered by the distorted and dark faces of babies.

This is definitely not a situation that an ordinary first-level contractor can handle.

The Sword of Exorcism only seals Ivia's power to attack actively, but does not seal Ivia's full strength to reach the ceiling of this world.

Therefore, Ivia had no idea of ​​danger. She stopped a taxi and headed to the Shudu Inari Shrine, the prompt point for this mission information.

The taxi driver was no different from other places. He chatted with the handsome medicine seller along the way.

But when Ivia tried to ask about the legend of Zashiki-warashi and the special powers of Inari Shrine, the driver became very secretive and just advised Ivia to just come and have fun and not to delve into the details.

The taxi drove through the city, the Inari Shrine, and the vast forest, and brought Ivia to the majestic gate of the Inari Shrine.

Ivia kept her perception active throughout the journey, which was a bit strange.

According to Miss Wujo, there are many suicides every year in the forest outside the Inari Shrine, but Ivia did not find any signs of resentment gathering in the forest.

The gate of Inari Shrine is crowded with tourists, and it seems like an ordinary landmark attraction, not at all a mysterious shrine that has the method of sealing Zashiki-warashi.

Something was a little strange. Ivia did not choose to ask the clergy here, but just followed the crowd quietly and visited the attractions one by one according to the tourist promotions.

Ivia didn't look for the other party, but the people at Inari Shrine fell in love with Ivia's handsome appearance as a medicine seller in the crowd.

After Ivia finished visiting the main hall, a slightly plump clergyman with a kind face appeared in front of Ivia and said:

"Hello, I am a servant of the God Inari. You look very familiar to me. Are you a believer who has come here to visit the God Inari?"

"Yes! I am from another place and I came here specially to pay my respects." Ivyya took the opportunity to get out of the situation.

"Are you alone?"

"Yes!" Ivia guessed something from this strange question and answered affirmatively.

"That's quite tiring! How about this, I recommend you a hotel that's very close to the shrine and will be convenient for you to travel to and from."

The slightly plump clergyman called another person and was about to lead the way for Ivia.

"You're such a great help!" Ivia expressed her gratitude sincerely.

Chapter 57 Hurricane Rescue

Aivia followed the guide who obviously had bad intentions and walked in twists and turns, becoming more and more remote. Finally, she left the Inari Shrine through a small door, walked through the forest, and came to a quiet inn.

The name of this hotel is also very simple, Inari Hotel, which is obviously a partner related to the shrine.

After bringing Ivia to the destination, the guide turned around and left as usual. The hotel seemed to be normal except that no one was staying there and there was only one front desk staff.

Did you guess wrong?

Ivia was sitting in a hotel room with a view of the Inari Shrine, feeling a little confused. This wasn't right!

In desperation, Ivia could only settle down temporarily and planned to go to Inari Shrine for a thorough inspection at night.

As evening approached, Ivia, who was waiting for nightfall in her room, heard a knock on the door and the voice of the hotel receptionist:

"Mr. Medicine Seller, I've brought your dinner! Please open the door."

Aiweiya smiled slightly, she was not wrong:

"Does it take five strong men to deliver dinner?"

Hearing that Ivia had seen through their trick, the other party stopped pretending and opened the door with the spare key.

Five people rushed in, and the man in the lead aimed a gun at Ivia.

"If you don't want to die, just listen to me! Put your hands up!" said the leading man fiercely.

Ivia remained unmoved and quietly sensed these people, all of whom were entangled in Zashiki-warashi's resentment.

Seeing that Ivia was calm and uncooperative, the other man behind the burly man with a gun took out a stick and was about to hit Ivia on the head.

"Don't hit his head! His face is valuable! It would be bad if it gets damaged!" The burly man holding a gun hurriedly stopped him.

With these words, the stick hit Ivia, and Ivia raised her hands as if she was in pain.

"Tie her up!" One of the other two strong men took out a towel and covered Ivia's face with it, while the other one twisted Ivia's hands and tied them up tightly.

The towel had a pungent chemical smell, which made Ivia immediately understand how she should react.

After counting silently for more than ten seconds, Ivia closed her eyes.

The strong men began to search Ivia and put all of her belongings, including the wallet that Ivia had placed as bait, into another pocket very professionally.

Then the hotel front desk began to restore the room. When Ivia was carried downstairs and put into the white, dilapidated van, all traces of the medicine seller Ivia's visit had been completely eliminated.

Aivia was secretly shocked. This group of kidnappers didn't even take the money. It was obvious that they were well organized.

From the moment the clergy of Inari Shrine confirmed that Ivia was traveling alone to the kidnapping at night, the entire process was very smooth. It was obvious that it had been carried out countless times. I just don't know what this behavior had to do with the resentment of the Zashiki-warashi in the sky.

"Boss Nishimura, the goods have been put into the warehouse."

"Yes! No damage!"

"it is good!"

Ivia listened carefully. The other party was very careful. Not only did the person on the other end of the phone use a voice changer, but the content of what he said was also very normal. If you only listened to the conversation, someone who didn't know would think it was just an ordinary business communication.

Ivia was still pretending to be unconscious in the car. The van drove for about half an hour before it stopped. Ivia squinted her eyes and looked around. This was an abandoned factory in the suburbs, but judging from the messy tire tracks, it was very lively here.

After parking, it was obvious that they had arrived at the target location. The people who were originally cautious became relaxed. One of them carried Ivia and walked deeper into the factory, while the others left directly and no one knew where they went.

There really was something else hidden inside this abandoned factory. Carried on the man's shoulders, Ivia passed two checkpoints in just five minutes. The first checkpoint let him through after confirming his identity. The guard at the second checkpoint even took a photo of Ivia's unconscious face and sent it away. He was only allowed to pass after receiving a reply.

Finally, Ivia was taken to a foul-smelling basement. In addition to Ivia, there were more than a dozen people in the basement who had suffered the same fate, mostly women. All of them had their hands and feet tied. Some of them had woken up and were struggling desperately, while others were still unconscious.

Ivia roughly sensed that the girls here were in good condition and no accidents would happen in the short term, so she did not attack directly. After all, there were many victims and she needed to consider carefully.

Ivia was not the last person to be kidnapped. After that, several more girls were brought here, so the number of people present now exceeded twenty.

In the depressing atmosphere where girls would occasionally wake up and struggle, a middle-aged man who looked like the leader finally came. He opened the door to the basement and ordered his men to splash water on the girls who were still unconscious. Ivia also woke up.

Then he had his men drag the girl in front of him and tear off the tape on her mouth. The terrified girl was about to scream when she was slapped hard. Then he grabbed the girl's hair, opened her mouth and looked at her teeth like an animal, nodded with satisfaction, and asked:

"virgin?"

The girl was extremely frightened and still in a trance. She didn't react, so she was slapped again. This time she reacted and quickly shook her head.

After hearing this, the middle-aged man signaled his men to drag the girl away, and then grabbed the next girl.

"Where are you taking her?"

Ivia easily broke free from the ropes that bound her hands and feet, tore off the tape on her mouth and asked.

Without saying a word, the leader shot directly at Ivia. After the bang of the gun, a bloody hole was made in Ivia's skin.

But in an instant, Ivia's health was restored, and her squirming muscles squeezed out the bullet, which fell to the ground.

This strange behavior, coupled with Ivia's cold expression, seemed extremely eerie in the dim basement.

"Don't come here!"

Ivia walked towards the criminals step by step under the gunfire.

The medicine seller's body was repeatedly broken and regenerated, and he was covered in blood. Ivia approached the leader at a moderate pace, ignoring everything that tried to stop her.

In the end, these people were scared and fled in all directions.

Ivia also breathed a sigh of relief. Before she was unblocked, Ivia actually had no ability to attack and could only scare people like this. If this didn't work, Ivia could only rely on her immortality and beat them down with her turtle punch like an ordinary person.

Only then did Ivia go down to the basement and rescue all twenty girls.

Aivia sensed carefully that these people were just ordinary people and had nothing to do with vengeful spirits.

Half an hour later, four police cars and two buses arrived at the scene, accompanied by an elderly man who was obviously an official.

The old man had a kind face. He came up and apologized directly to Avia on behalf of Zhu Du. Then he said that this matter was of great importance and hoped that Avia would not make it public for the time being to avoid damaging Zhu Du's reputation. He also said that he would give an explanation after the matter was investigated thoroughly.

The police arrived and acted quickly. One bus took away the victims, and another bus took away all the handcuffed thugs. Although they arrived after the incident was over, they handled the scene in an orderly manner.

The request from the self-proclaimed Zhudu official to keep the secret was very reasonable, but after Ivia agreed, the old man was kind enough to arrange accommodation for Ivia.

This behavior made Ivia a little allergic, but seeing so many police officers on the scene, Ivia denied her guess and simply refused help. It should be no problem to leave the follow-up here to the police.

Chapter 58: Illusion

Without giving the official a chance to continue lobbying, after seeing that the girls had been accommodated, Ivia took a taxi and prepared to investigate the Inari Shrine late at night, starting from the inn of the same name.

Although he was a taxi driver, he seemed to have lost his way. It took Ivia half an hour longer than when she was kidnapped to get back to the Inari Inn. She thought the hotel would be deserted, but it was still open for business.

However, the person standing at the front desk was a fat middle-aged woman, not the young man that Ivia had seen during the day.

"Welcome back, guest." The woman at the front desk, who had never been seen before, seemed to recognize Ivia and greeted her warmly. "What's wrong? Did you forget to bring your keys? Then I'll take you upstairs."

It wasn't a polite remark, but he really recognized Ivia.
