The Strange Tales of Tokyo Monk

A low murmur, almost like a gentle breeze, was heard, and a ball of bright red flame slowly formed in Yumeko Kazama's shadow.

Replaced the shadow that originally belonged to Yumeko Kazama.

The big monster, Shiranui.

Chapter 108 Yumeko Kazama: Someone is pinching my breasts!

"Fire, bright red flame!"

The first person to be frightened was Yumeko Kazama, who had already fallen down on the beach. She stared at the ball of fire in her own shadow without blinking.

Bright red flames, just like those described in the stories her grandmother told.

The evil and passionate flame just burns quietly.

There was obviously nothing underneath it to serve as fuel.

But it can just keep burning forever.

"You are Lord Shiranui?"

Yumeko Kazama's teeth were chattering; just saying this one sentence had already exhausted all her strength.

"Yes, I am always with you."

A voice that did not belong to Yumeko Kazama or Chiya Hiramiya was heard from the bright red flames.

"Just as your grandmother's adoptive mother adopted your grandmother for my guidance, your appearance was also arranged by me."

The faint tone made Yumeko Kazama's heart tremble.

She actually managed to talk to Lord Shiranui!

This is not a dream!

It is not some fantasy, but something that is really happening at this moment.

Yumeko Kazama stretched out her right hand and pinched her left arm, which hurt a lot.

After the pain, the bright red flame in front of my eyes still existed and did not disappear.

Only then did she truly believe that the scene before her was real.

"Master Shiranui, since you have always been with me, why can't you come out to see my grandmother and fulfill her last wish?"

"My presence is not necessarily a good thing."

"Is there something hidden here?"

Yumeko Kazama quickly thought of this.

The bright flame was still burning, but it did not answer the question.

Yumeko Kazama turned her head and looked up at Chiya Hiramiya, "Can you tell me the answer?"

Pinggong Qianye ignored this question and squatted down, looked at the ball of bright red flame, stared at it for a while, and gently reached out to try to touch it.

He really wanted to know what kind of existence the great monster Shiranui was.

After all, it only exists in legends, and no specific introduction to it can be found in many classics.

In fact, tonight, he didn't notice any specific problems with Yumeko Kazama at first, he just felt that her breath was a little messy and strange.

Until Yumeko Kazama came to the beach, the aura on her body changed in a short period of time, echoing with the thousands of lights on the sea.

Only at this time could he truly confirm the connection between Yumeko Kazama and the great monster Shiranui.

"This fire..."

When Pinggong Qianye's hand touched the bright red flame, what he felt was not burning heat, but a warm texture.

How can a flame have this kind of texture?

Seems a bit flexible?

There's nothing scientific about this... There's nothing weird about this.

Pinggong Qianye was curious and tried to pinch a small flame with his fingers.

At this moment, Yumeko Kazama, who was staring at this place, suddenly screamed and put her hands on her chest.

With her cheeks flushed, she said with shame and anger: "Ah! Someone is pinching my breasts!"

"..."

Hiramiya Chiye subconsciously looked towards where Kazama Yumeko was, but did not see any human figures or ghosts.

There was only Yumeko Kazama in that direction, so it was impossible for anything to attack her.

"I, I really felt someone pinched my breast just now."

Yumeko Kazama's cheeks blushed and she looked around, but she didn't find anything unusual.

"I can still feel it now... as if someone has put their hand on my... right breast..."

Yumeko Kazama's voice became lower and lower, and the blush on her face became bigger and bigger.

After all, it is too shameful to say such words in person.

Pinggong Qianye thought for a moment, retracted his gaze, looked at his right hand that was reaching into the bright red flame, and an idea emerged in his mind.

No way?

Pinggong Qianye was silent for a while, then gently pinched a cluster of flames with his right hand.

"Ah! It's pinching my breast again!"

Yumeko Kazama screamed again, closed her legs, clasped her hands tightly around her chest, her face flushed with shame and her eyes filled with panic and fear.

"..."

Pinggong Qianye silently withdrew his right hand, put it in his pocket, and stood up as if nothing had happened.

Looking out to sea with deep eyes.

The moon seems a little rounder tonight.

"Hey, that hand seems to have left..."

Another small murmur came from Yumeko Kazama's mouth.

"You have a lot of problems."

Hiramiya Chiye withdrew her gaze from the distance and looked at Kazama Yumeko again.

"..."

Yumeko Kazama remained silent, still clasping her hands tightly around her chest, fearing that the invisible hand would come back again.

There was clearly no ghostly aura around, and no one else was present.

But the feeling of someone pinching my chest just now was so obvious and real.

The first time might have been my own illusion.

But the second time, it was clearly a hand that pinched my breast when I wasn't paying attention.

But I had already protected my chest tightly with both hands, so how did its hand get in?

She thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer and began to sob softly.

"..."

Pinggong Qianye sighed and looked at the flame, "The legendary great monster, Shiranui, won't you come out and explain it?"

"Now I am just a ball of fire, and I don't feel anything."

"..." Pinggong Qianye was silent.

"Feeling? What does it feel like?"

Yumeko Kazama, who was sobbing in grievance, seemed to hear some key words and suddenly raised her head, with traces of tears still obvious in the corners of her eyes.

"At this moment, you and I are essentially one."

"Ah, Master Shiranui, were you also pinched on the breast just now?"

Yumeko Kazama spoke subconsciously.

Soon, she blushed and waved her hands to explain: "That's not what I meant. I just felt it was strange. I..."

"Now I am just a ball of fire. I don't have the concept of body parts as you humans do."

"Oh."

Yumeko Kazama nodded as if she understood, then looked confused again, and then she said belatedly: "Master Shiranui, why are you hiding in my shadow?"

"From the day I met your grandma, I have been with her until her death, when I left her and became one with you."

"what!"

Yumeko Kazama was shocked and stood up from the beach all of a sudden without even bothering to brush the sand off her body.

"You've always been with my grandma?"

"Yes, on the day we first met."

"..."

Yumeko Kazama pursed her lips, her body trembled slightly, and she didn't speak for a while.

She didn't know how to comment on this matter. The Lord Shiranui that her grandmother had been working so hard for and thinking about was actually with her all the time.

No wonder grandma could never be found.

Because she herself is the great monster Shiranui.

What is this?

A fantastic and tragic legend?

Or is it a stupid story about humans being manipulated by the great monster Shiranui?

When she had this thought, she was instantly shocked by her own idea.

No matter how Lord Shiranui concealed the truth, he saved his grandmother and himself in the end.

He has been very kind to me and is my benefactor, not my enemy.

Yumeko Kazama took a deep breath and said in a firm and calm tone: "Master Shiranui, you have done me and my grandmother a favor. If you need any help, please let me know. I will do it for you even if it costs me my life."

After a brief silence, Shiranui's voice was heard from the bright red flames, "But even if you sacrifice your life, you can't help me achieve anything."

"..."

Yumeko Kazama's face froze, and she felt a burning pain on her cheek.

It’s so embarrassing. I really want to take back those bold words I just said!

But she still tried to calm herself down, "Master Shiranui, what kind of help do you need?"

"I have a great enemy in the depths of the sea."

"..."

Yumeko Kazama's face fell.

How could I possibly be a match for this powerful enemy that even Lady Shiranui couldn't handle?!

And it's on the sea, I will get seasick!

"What kind of powerful enemy?" Pinggong Qianye was interested.

The bright red flame trembled slightly, and the flame seemed to turn towards the sea.

"The sea has always been full of storms and dangers. That is a terrifying monster, it calls itself Umibozu."

Umibozu?

Hiramiya Chiye and Kazama Yumeko were both slightly startled, as they had both heard of the legend of Umibozu.

It should be said that most Japanese people know about this terrifying monster that is active in the sea all year round.

In the past, many fishermen had encountered it when going out to sea to fish.
