The mastermind behind this started by creating a strange story

Just when Ueharano and his companions were sitting on the ground preparing to rest for a while, a sound suddenly came from about ten meters to the left.

"found it!"

Found it? Upon hearing this voice, Uehara hurriedly got up from the ground and walked quickly in that direction.

"Hey, department head, don't walk so fast!"

Seeing this, Ueharano's companions had no choice but to stand up from the ground and follow.

Pushing aside the branches in front of him, he saw four or five policemen gathered in front of him, discussing something in front of the corpse on the ground.

So it was them...

Ueharano originally thought it was his own team, but when he looked carefully, he didn't recognize anyone. Then he realized that this was another team, the local police team that was searching for missing persons.

"Did you find the missing person?"

Out of politeness, Ueharano decided to go forward and say hello. Besides, he was also concerned about the corpses on the ground.

Why would they say they have found a corpse? Aren’t they looking for a missing person?

"Oh, it's you." The search police also recognized Ueharano and the others, and explained to them: "We found them, but I don't know why it turned out like this."

The leading policeman asked the surrounding police officers to move aside, revealing the clothed corpse that was hidden behind the scene.

"For some reason, the missing person's clothes were worn by the skeleton. It was very strange. In addition, the missing person's mobile phone was also left next to it and could not be turned on."

Chapter 199 Bones

A corpse in clothes...

The missing person's cell phone was also thrown aside. If there was a dead body, this would definitely be the murder scene.

and many more!

Uehara looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly thought of a possibility. The corpse in front of him was the missing person, but he was unlucky enough to meet Oshima Sho who had just awakened, and was eaten by Oshima Sho who had turned into a ghost!

The correct answer is right in front of you, so this is the answer. Don’t be too smart and think about other possibilities.

Just like the multiple-choice questions in an exam, this question is ridiculously simple and is a completely easy-to-get-points question. At this time, just choose the option that looks like the correct one and don't think too much about it.

What kind of trap was deliberately set by the teacher? This question is definitely not as simple as it looks. It is so simple that there must be a conspiracy behind it. The answer must be other options. Don’t think about it at all. The answer is so simple. This is a question that will give you points easily!

Therefore, when the correct answer is in front of you, just answer it directly. Don’t think too much and then be smart enough to ignore the correct answer and choose the wrong answer instead!

"We have to take this corpse away. Besides, he is most likely the missing person you are looking for!"

Ueharano stared at the corpse and spoke to the searching police officer nearby with a firm tone that brooked no room for rebuttal.

"Ah? What do you mean?" the leading policeman responded blankly.

What is this guy saying? Why don't I understand a word he says?

"Ahem, brother, can you please have a word with me?" When Ueharaye saw the confused look on the other party's face, he knew that the other party didn't understand what he said. That's right, the other party still didn't know anything.

With one arm around the other's neck, Ueharaye walked a few meters away with the leading policeman like a sleazy vendor selling some kind of CD on the roadside.

The two companions who came with Uehara also fulfilled their duties as followers and amiably stopped the other search police who wanted to follow and listen.

As the two people over there whispered, the leading policeman who was brought over was confused at first, then became shocked and unbelievable, and finally became extremely terrified, with a panicked face.

"Let's go, the missing person can't be found anymore! Let's get out of this forest!"

A moment later, after friendly negotiations by Ueharano, the leading police officer led a group of search police away without any hesitation.

Before leaving, he bowed to Shang Yuanye to express his gratitude, and then fled away from the outskirts of the forest.

"Department Head, what did you tell him?"

One of the police officers guarding the corpse asked, the expression of the searching policeman was too frightened, he might have several nightmares after he returned.

"Haha, nothing, I just told him a story." Uehara smiled and waved his hands. After all, he was not a devil, so how could he threaten the search police who was also a policeman?

"Okay, let's take this corpse out first, and then go search for Oshima Sho's corpse!"

"understand!"

The sun in the sky slowly moved its position over time, from hanging high in the sky to setting in the west, and Shang Yuanye had already returned to the forest. He did not rest too much after going out.

"Phew, this thing is so hard to find!"

Uehara looked at the corpse hanging on the rope without any flesh or blood. Although the clothes on the corpse were slightly worn, they were obviously still within the normal range.

This shows that the body must have turned into a fleshless skeleton within the past few days, otherwise it would be impossible for the flesh to rot while the clothes did not have excessive wear and tear. Moreover, the wear and tear of the clothes was obviously due to being worn for a long time.

By comparing with the photos, the clothes on the corpse are exactly the same as those worn by Oshima Sho who disappeared two days ago. If nothing unexpected happens, this is the corpse of Oshima Sho who turned into a ghost before his death!

"take away!"

With a wave of Uehara's hand, the police officers who had gathered long ago carefully untied the noose on the tree. The noose must be useful, and maybe it can even have a certain restraining effect on ghosts.

Isn't that how it's played out in all those classic ghost movies? The evil spirits and evil ghosts are most afraid of the weapons that killed them in their lifetime, and they are afraid that those weapons will kill them again.

Maybe this noose is no longer an ordinary noose, but a ghost-binding rope that is tainted with evil spirits!

"Oh, and dig up some of the mud on the ground. Don't forget to take away the bark and leaves nearby. Take away everything you can!"

Ueharano ordered the police officers who were packing the corpses to take away everything that could be taken away from the surrounding area. If possible, he wanted to dig three feet into the ground!

After a while, he returned to the upper plain outside the forest with his spoils, feeling a little excited!

I didn't expect it to be so easy to succeed. All I have to do now is...

Standing next to the police car, Ueharano cast his eyes towards the busy road, and at the end of this road was the Sengen Taisha Shrine.

The shrine with the gods is right here. How desperate must he be to face a murderous ghost with his mortal body?

It was speculated that Sho Oshima's ghost was still in Suruga District, Shizuoka City, so he could come to the forest to look for the other's body without fear.

Moreover, this area is under the shroud of gods. It is impossible for Oshima Sho, who has become a ghost, to go on a killing spree here!

Although he couldn't understand why the gods would let Oshima Sho, who had become a ghost, leave.

It should be that Oshima Sho used some ghost magic that they didn't know about, and the gods' eyes have always been on Mount Fuji, and they must have accidentally overlooked the insects under Mount Fuji.

"Let's go. A few of you come with me to visit the Sengen Taisha Shrine. The rest of you will stay here and look after these corpses!"

After taking a short break after smoking a cigarette, Ueharano crushed the cigarette butt and threw it into a nearby trash can, then spoke to the police officers who were also resting nearby.

Seeing that the boss had spoken, the police officers who had rested well hurried over, vying to accompany Yuanye.

"It's just the few of you. Let's go."

After randomly selecting a few people who arrived first and giving instructions to the remaining police officers, Ueharano followed the crowd to Sengen Taisha Shrine.

………………

At the same time, Sengen Taisha Shrine.

As the number of visitors began to decrease, the festival preparations that had been idle were restarted.

Although there are still tourists coming to visit, these people can no longer affect their arrangements. They prepare for the festival in an orderly manner, and tourists also pray in the worship hall and under the cherry trees in an orderly manner.

The two groups do not interfere with each other, and the shrine only needs to allocate a small number of people to guide tourists.

As a full-time shrine maiden, Furude Reimu naturally does not need to do the work that the assistant shrine maidens need to do. Her job is to dance the Kagura dance well during sacrifices and worship of gods.

Because this is the first sacrificial ceremony after the god's appearance in the world, the arrangements must be luxurious and this ceremony must go down in history!

Chapter 200 Difficulties

Sengen Taisha Shrine, torii entrance.

Ueharano and his subordinates stood here with their eyes sparkling.

According to legend, the Torii gate is mainly used to distinguish between the divine realm and the secular world where humans live. It is a kind of barrier that represents the entrance to the divine realm and can be regarded as a kind of "gate".

Originally, this statement was just a way for the shrine to give the torii a high-end feature, but now that the gods have appeared in the world, this statement should not be that simple.

"The Torii gate is the distinction between the divine world and the human world. When we step into the Torii gate, it means that we have entered the divine world, so we should pay special attention to all our actions and behaviors."

"Have you remembered?" At the torii gate, Ueharano said to his subordinates around him.

"understand!"

"Okay, with our momentum and righteousness, we will ask the priests in the shrine to come out and exorcise the demons!"

"No matter what the cost, we must ask the priest to punish that man-eating evil spirit!"

After saying that, Ueharano stepped into the entrance of the torii with a spirit of sacrificing his life for justice. The setting sun reflected on the red pillars of the torii, making Ueharano look even taller and more majestic.

"Department Head..."

The subordinates who came with him choked up and shouted that they had never expected their department head to be so conscious. They were moved to tears!

"Let's go. We can't let the chief bear the responsibility alone. We have to play our role too!" one of the police officers shouted.

"Yes!!!"

The others shouted loudly. This group of people in police uniforms seemed to have social incompetence. They didn't care at all about the foolish looks from the people around them, and they marched into the entrance of the Torii in a mighty manner.

"You guys..." Uehara Ye, who was walking in front, quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. He couldn't let his subordinates see this. He was the leader, and he could only face them with a strong side!

Tourists nearby: “…”

I don't know what happened, but it feels pretty amazing.

The clergy who were receiving tourists in the surrounding area had already noticed this group of people in police uniforms. It would be difficult to ignore them even if they wanted to.

After all, people like this who have no psychological burden or pressure at all and completely let go of themselves are definitely the brightest stars among the crowd.

Although it was unknown why these police officers came here, the clergy responsible for receiving tourists performed their duties perfectly.

One person went to receive and guide the group of police officers, and the other went to report to the shrine's chief.

A moment later, inside the shrine, in the reception room.

As the person who leads the shrine, the chief priest was naturally present, with several priests standing behind him. At the same time, the shrine maiden Reimu Furude was also kneeling behind him.

Opposite them were the police officers headed by Uehara No Yamada. Since they had come to a shrine, they naturally had to follow the rules of the shrine, so this group of police officers also knelt on the tatami-covered floor.

"Excuse me, what instructions do you have for our shrine?" the priest asked first.

To be honest, he is also very confused now. Why did the police suddenly visit them? Wasn’t it already discussed before?

When the miracle just appeared, government officials came to their door. After a long talk all night, they had already reached an agreement with the government.

But why did the police come to their door again? Are they dissatisfied with the previous agreement? But in the agreement, they were the party that made the biggest concessions. If they were really dissatisfied, they should be the ones!

Therefore, Gong Si asked in advance, wanting to test the waters first.

"Ahem." Ueharano coughed lightly and explained the purpose of his visit in simple terms, "We want to ask the capable priests in the shrine to come out and help us eliminate the evil spirits in the world!"

Palace Master: “???”

“Could you be more specific, please?” Not only the chief priest, but also the priests and priestesses behind him looked puzzled.

Seeing this, Ueharano was a little embarrassed: "Sorry, I was too impatient, so I was a little concise."

The sun slowly sets from the side of the mountain, and the evening sunlight becomes even dimmer.

He carefully explained the purpose of his visit and also told us his own guesses. When he felt that he had said enough, Ueharaye stopped talking.

During the time he mentioned, the pot of tea had already been finished.

"Hey, refill the guests' tea!" Upon seeing this, the priest instructed the priestess beside him.

Furude Reimu glanced around and found that no one stood up, so she understood that this was an order for me.

A moment later, when Reimu Furude arrived at the scene with a new pot of tea, Miyagi was discussing this matter with Ueharano.

"Officer Uehara, how can you be sure that our shrine has a solution?"

Uehara drank the last of the tea in his cup in one gulp and asked the little witch to refill the tea while answering, "Because the great god Asama appeared in the world and performed miracles!"

"So, I am sure that Sengen Taisha is not as simple as it seems. I sincerely hope that the shrine can help us get rid of the evil spirits!"

"..." Gong Si picked up the tea and put it to his mouth. While slowly blowing away the hot steam, he was also thinking about how to politely reject the other party.

He knew his own business best. Although the shrine was praised as a place where gods appeared and miracles appeared, they had not inherited any divine heritage at all.

Moreover, when the shrine was in danger, they abandoned it and ran away. Although this cannot be blamed on them, at least it seems that way.

They have no ability to eliminate evil spirits at all!
