Chapter 121: Death Seal-Exploring the Kujo Family.

Baoyue Yexiao was stunned. She had never encountered such a situation before. The evil spirit that was so crazy just now actually stopped and listened quietly to the tape recorder playing in Yashiki Kazuo's hand.

"I see, it's already been completed. That song..."

Then, the sound of dog barking was heard in the forest, and a big dog with long black hair on its head ran out of the forest seemingly happily.

"Xiao Yuan... So you are here... Okay, let's go, that person... is waiting for us..."

Not only Uesugi Cheng, but even Baoyue Yexiao could feel that the obsession that supported the existence of the evil spirit seemed to be disappearing rapidly. She looked at the doll still struggling on the ground with some distress, and then looked at the ghost bride in front of her who was almost disappearing.

"What a shame! It would be great if we could catch him. That kind of curse ability should be very rare."

Her mumbling was heard by Uesugi Cheng. He looked at the doll on the ground carefully again. For some reason, when his gaze shifted over, the doll that was originally still eager to move suddenly seemed to become quiet.

"call……"

Yashiki Kazuo sat down on the ground as if he was exhausted, then looked at his wrist and revealed a smile that was uglier than crying. Obviously, the mark on his wrist was still as red as blood. Uesugi Sumiko raised his hand to confirm, and the mark on his hand had disappeared.

"Is this actually a curse set by that guy? I thought it would be something more difficult."

Although he said this, Uesugi Sumiko knew that the Demon Bride was obviously not the mastermind behind the scenes. It was impossible for its own power to cast such a powerful curse on Uesugi Sumiko. Even if Yashiki Kazuo knew some spiritual abilities, he might be able to repel the Demon Bride directly.

"Come to think of it, why are you here? I remember clearly..."

Uesugi Cheng looked back at Baoyue Yexiao, and she looked a little angry and responded.

"Brother Uesugi is a liar. He didn't even leave a phone number. I had to let it follow the scent and got here!"

"it?"

After recovering from his shock, Yashiki Kazuo looked at the motionless doll that Baoyue Yexiao was holding on the ground, and some crazy guesses came into his mind that he was unwilling to believe.

"In that case, you are really...catching evil spirits, right?"

Uesugi Sumiko picked up the doll, and for some reason, the doll began to tremble violently to resist his touch, and even waved its limbs strangely to escape from Uesugi Sumiko's hands.

"Capturing... evil spirits? Is it possible to do such a thing?"

Yashiki Kazuo came back to his senses and looked at the doll in Uesugi Sumiko's hand, then looked at the girl next to him who didn't look like an ordinary person. He patted the dirt on his hands as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ling, are you okay?"

Uesugi Cheng went over and helped up Morimiya Ling, who seemed to have just recovered from the chaos. It seemed that because of her strong "inspiration", she became dazed and stopped moving the moment the ghost bride appeared.

"How about we go back to Kujo-kan and discuss the details first? Whether it's your midnight snack, mine, or Mr. Yashiki's problem, this is really not a good place to talk."

Uesugi Cheng's proposal was quickly passed by several people, and Baoyue Yexiao also nodded. She was really curious why the evil spirit showed such a cowardly attitude in the hands of Uesugi Cheng. Even when it was bitten by many other evil spirits in the room in her house, it did not show such emotions.

"Monster! Get out!! Don't come near me!! Monster!!"

She heard the tamed evil spirit inside the doll screaming in despair at her, and the person making the accusation was naturally Uesugi Cheng who was holding it.

Similarly, Uesugi Sumiko naturally saw Hozuki Eiko running out late at night with some midnight snacks. She looked shocked, but then her face became full of excitement.

"That...that!!! That's the evil spirit that Ye Xiao mentioned, right? I didn't expect that I could actually see it."

"Actually, I think she'd rather you didn't see it."

Uesugi Sumiko said something, but it seemed that Houyue Eiko didn't take it to heart at all. Instead, she was very curious and kept asking Yashiki Kazuo and Uesugi Sumiko questions.

After returning to Kujo-kan, the group finally relaxed a little. As eyewitnesses of the incident, Uesugi Sumiko, Yashiki Kazuo and Baoyue Yexiao sat in Yashiki Kazuo's room and began the discussion.

"Capture evil spirits and tame them to become your own power? It sounds like a very difficult task, Baoyue..."

There was no doubt that Yashiki Kazuo was stuck by the name for Baoyue Yexiao. After all, he had never seen a girl so young who could deal with evil spirits so skillfully. He estimated that he had never seen one before he lost his memory.

"You can just call me for a midnight snack, but compared to this... I'm very curious about the doll in the Kujo building, the doll named Meili."

Baoyue Night Snack came straight to the point. In fact, her eyes had never left Meili since she entered Kujo Hall.

"It is said that she has been serving the Kujo family for a long time, but she is just a weak puppet spirit. At most, she can provide guidance to us Indians. But speaking of it, can you actually fight against the evil spirit directly?"

"Not bad, at least I can still fight back. By the way, how much do you know about the Kujo family, Mr. Yashiki?"

"I don't know. I lost my memory. When I woke up, I was standing at the gate of the Kujo family with a business card in my pocket. There weren't many reports about the Kujo family in the newspapers here..."

Yashiki Kazuo felt very troubled when talking about this. If the threat of death had not never relaxed its pace, what he should have been most concerned about was his life experience.

"I see. I might be about to talk about something a little rude. The Kujo family is far from being as simple as I originally thought. I might have to apologize here first. I pried open the locked door in the basement without permission."

"Huh?! So it can be pried open? Mary has been asking me to find the master key to the Kujo House to open the locked room on the second floor and the room in the basement, but I didn't expect..."

Yashiki Kazuo didn't know whether he was shocked by Uesugi Sumire's behavior or by the fact that the door could be pried open.

"To be honest, the Kujo family's collection of spiritual tools looks like an arsenal."

Having said this, Yashiki Kazuo simply decided to let Uesugi Sumiya take him and Baoyue to the basement for a midnight snack. After all, the head of the Kujo family has disappeared. If they borrow these things to solve the strangeness, Ms. Kujo Saya will probably not mind.

"That's true...so amazing."

Even Baoyue Yexiu was very surprised when he saw the spiritual tools in that warehouse.

So several people began to check the basement carefully. Even Baoyue Yexiao forgot her original question due to this series of interruptions: how did Uesugi Cheng manage to make the evil spirit so scared.

Chapter 122: Leaving the Kujo family temporarily and having a midnight snack with Baoyue brings inspiration.

When the sun rose, the three of them picked up some things from the basement and returned to the lobby of Kujo-kan. Yashiki Kazuo suddenly remembered something.

"It seems like today is Monday... Don't you have to go to school?"

"Oh, yes. I'll have to trouble you later... Mr. Yashiki, are you free to give me a ride?"

Uesugi Sumiko thought about it. He originally wanted to take Hozuki Eiko's car to return from H City to his district, but he guessed that Hozuki Eiko had to go back to school herself, so he simply asked Yashiki Kazuo to do it for him. He also had something to say to Yashiki Kazuo, but it was not in Kujo Hall.

"Ah, there's nothing wrong with that..."

Yashiki Kazuo agreed to this very readily. Now he had nothing else to do except studying the affairs of Kujo-kan and the source of the mark. Maybe driving out for a walk occasionally could help him clear his mind.

So on the way back to Unified High School, Yashiki Kazuo took the initiative to bring up the topic.

"Uesugi, does the technology to drive and tame evil spirits... really exist?"

"Of course, there is more than that. There is also technology to transform spirits. Some things are far more profound and mysterious than we can imagine."

Uesugi Cheng nodded. In the waking world, there was a man named 'Colonel' Si Chen. In one aspect of the waking world, he was the Norse god Odin. According to legend, he had an entire elite army of undead under his command.

"What an incredible skill. But that little girl... can she really control those undead spirits?"

"It seems that her method of controlling the undead is not a big problem. After all, it seems that she is much more skilled in doing this than we are in dealing with evil spirits."

Uesugi Cheng opened "The Mirror of Melanthe". He finally had time to continue to improve his skills.

"By the way, I want to remind you that the puppet named Meili is not as simple and weak as she said. Although I am not sure now, I don't have a very good feeling about her. But this is just a reminder. After all, she is still helping you now."

Uesugi Sumire spoke, causing Yashiki Kazuo to be stunned for a moment, and the speed of the car suddenly slowed down.

"Is that so... Uesugi-kun, I actually have something I want to tell you."

"what happened?"

"To be honest, when I first saw you, my mark was burning... and I wanted to stay away from you from the bottom of my heart. I still haven't found the reason... Maybe saying this will hurt you, but my fear of you in my heart... is just like the fear of those monsters."

Yashiki Kazuo looked at the young man sitting in the back seat through the mirror with some difficulty. He was holding a book and looked like an ordinary student, but Yashiki Kazuo, who had been dealing with monsters and evil spirits almost every day recently, was constantly giving warnings in his heart.

"Is that so? Do I look that scary? I am just an ordinary person. At most, I have learned some skills and knowledge that are beyond human common sense."

Uesugi Cheng was a little confused. He didn't look like a monster at all, but why did those evil spirits and people with strong inspiration seem to have a strange fear of him recently?

"That being said, after meeting you, Uesugi-san, I feel fine... We're almost at the integration point, so it's okay to get off nearby, right?"

Yashiki Kazuo stopped at the intersection and waited for the red light. He looked at the Unified High School not far away and said.

"That's not a problem. Speaking of the Kujo family... Mr. Yashiki, you'd better solve the secrets of the Kujo family and your own secrets as soon as possible. The spiritual tools hidden in the Kujo family... I find it hard to imagine that they are the collections that an ordinary wealthy family would have."

Uesugi Cheng shook the spiritual tool in his hand. It was a ritual dagger that had a stronger ritual symbol no matter how you looked at it. It was engraved with mysterious patterns and was placed casually in the box.

"Indeed... But there is not much information about the Kujo family, and the only current head of the family who has news about him, Kujo Saya, disappeared before I came..."

Yashiki Kazuo covered his head and frowned in pain.

"What's wrong?!"

Uesugi Cheng was stunned for a moment, the red light turned green, and the car behind him started honking its horn.

"No... It's okay, I'll drive to the side of the road first..."

Yashiki Kazuo stepped on the accelerator with some difficulty, and after barely driving the car to the side of the road, he pulled the handbrake. Just this seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

"I... I can't remember it. I should have remembered it..."

He covered his head in pain and looked as if someone was hitting him on the head with a hammer. His eyes were bloodshot and his expression was extremely ferocious.

"Don't be anxious. Don't think about those things for now... Don't be anxious..."

[Quenching and Extinguishing Flames] played a role again at this time. The gentle words brushed through Yashiki Kazuo's heart like a soft breeze, calming him down a little.

"Sorry, I just remembered something, but it gives me a terrible headache when I think about it carefully..."

The mark on his hand was so hot that it seemed to burn him, and Yashiki Kazuo leaned back in his chair exhausted.

"It's okay. Although we have to do it as soon as possible, it's better to take your time if there is no suitable opportunity. After all, the one who put the mark on your hand doesn't seem to be in a hurry to start its 'hunt'."

Uesugi Cheng nodded. He planned to meet Baoyue for another snack. After all, the girl did provide him with some bold ideas and practices that he could not carry out in the waking world.

When Uesugi Sumire returned to school, he was just like countless students who had returned to Monday from the weekend. He looked so sleepy that he seemed like he would fall asleep on his desk at any second. Many teachers were even ready to wake him up as soon as he fell asleep. However, even after Hikigaya Hachiman fell down, Uesugi Sumire still sat in his seat looking half asleep and half awake.

"Did you guys... do something secretly? Ah Cheng, your mark was touched, right?"

Yotsuya Miko looked at Hikigaya Hachiman with suspicion, who obviously hadn't slept well. She had a subtle feeling of being excluded.

"No, I spent too much time looking up stuff yesterday... Maybe this guy is solving his own problems."

Hikigaya Hachiman yawned and took himself out.

"Yes, I went to solve the problem with the phone booth yesterday... Jianzi, I need your help with something."

Yotsuya Kenko, who was about to make trouble, suddenly got her words stuck in her throat. Looking at Uesugi Sumiko who looked sincere, she could only sigh helplessly.

"I see. Ah Cheng, what do you want me to do for you this time?"

"I'm going to meet that little Baoyue night snack friend from last time, and then I want you to go somewhere with me."

Uesugi Cheng said so.

Chapter 123: It’s not a very vicious evil spirit.

"Ah, speaking of which, what are we doing now? A little activity after school?"

Yotsuya Miko, carrying her bag, looked at the empty streets with only people coming and going, and felt her eyes were much more relaxed. Although she was not so afraid of the random ghosts on the street now, their distorted appearance still made Miko feel a little mentally stressed. However, as long as she followed Uesugi Sumire, the ghosts on the roadside would consciously retreat, even to places where they could not be seen at all.

"Maybe some technical exchanges? After all, what she did was something we had never thought of before, or even though I had thought of it, I felt that there was a lack of practical methods."

Uesugi Sumiko did not explicitly tell Yotsuya Kenko that Hougetsu Yexiao was actually a ghost catcher or a black-hearted sister who exploited evil spirits. After all, evil spirits that harm people do not have ghost power.

"Eh? Technology? But... never mind, how did that incident yesterday turn out?"

"Ah, the spirit in the phone booth was saved, but we all know that she is not the mastermind behind the incident. She is probably just an evil spirit that was stimulated to become an unstable factor. The one who really turned her into an evil spirit is still hiding behind the scenes."

Uesugi Sumiko moved his arms. Yashiki Kazuo's performance and the still bright mark on his wrist indicated that the real source was still hiding somewhere waiting for the next hunt.

"Hey, you're at home now... Oh, studying with a tutor, right? Do you need me to come over later?"

Uesugi Cheng picked up the phone. After what happened yesterday, Baoyue Yexiao asked him to exchange phone numbers with her. He was not the only one interested in Baoyue Yexiao's method of capturing evil spirits. It was obvious that Baoyue Yexiao was also very interested in Uesugi Cheng's terrifying fighting ability. After all, she had never seen an ordinary person fighting evil spirits with bare hands since she could see evil spirits.

Not only that, Baoyue Yexiao was also very interested in another thing, which was the fact that the evil spirit doll she took out that day described to her that Uesugi Cheng was a monster.

Even though she used various means to tame these evil spirits, they had never expressed such strong emotions of fear and terror. However, Uesugi Sumika only held the doll in her hand and achieved the powerful effect of making the evil spirits shrink inside the doll and dare not resist at all. She had never seen evil spirits be so afraid of humans.

The two of them talked as they walked. Most of the time, Yotsuya Miko was asking Sugi Sumire about the knowledge related to the Silence Technique, or occasionally they would chat about what happened in the school. The school has been calm since the disappearance case. Of course, it may also be related to the fact that the teachers and the police were on high alert and strengthened their protection and patrols because of that case.

"Come to think of it, since the Cultural Festival, everyone has been saying that you, Acheng, are indeed a transfer student from Shuchiin. But they said that they couldn't contact you after the Cultural Festival, and you were still sleeping when they came over today..."

"What does it have to do with me? You know I just want to do that. Instead of this, they should think more about how to handle their own affairs. In the end, I will have to clean up the mess for them at the cultural festival..."

Uesugi Cheng yawned, and his body began to feel full of energy after waking up. The influence of the Death Mark on people seemed to be not only limited to psychological pressure, but also seemed to have a considerable negative impact on people's physical health. It was hard to say that Yashiki Kazuo's haggard appearance was not the effect of the Death Mark.

Then they arrived at Baoyue's house as described on the phone. It was a very ordinary house. To be honest, the only thing that looked quite eye-catching was the cherry tree in the yard.
