Hinasaki Fukaba first glanced at her mother whom she had just reunited with, then turned around and nodded to Tai.
"My mother and I both have the last name Hinasaki, so you can just call me Fukaba."
The team will split up for now.
After watching Minamoto no Raikou disappear at the sluice gate carrying Hinasaki Fukaha on his back, everyone turned around and waded through the water on the corridor, crossed a stage-like platform, and finally stopped in front of a red-painted double door.
"Just push open this door and the second door inside. The person you are looking for is in the coffin placed in the center of the main hall."
Hearing this, Fang Xili took the initiative to step forward and open the door.
The not-so-long corridor faces the second door.
Just as the old lady said, the coffin was inside the second door.
"What are these four candles used for?" Xin Tiao Qian asked, looking at the four candles of the same style.
"...It doesn't mean anything, it's just been like this since ancient times." The old lady was stunned for a moment and answered with a confused look on her face.
"Are there any other mechanisms on the coffin?" asked Kotoko Iwanaga.
"I don't know either." The old lady shook her head and explained, "This part of the Nether Palace is not the area I'm responsible for. I don't understand the structure of the mechanism here."
The old lady said that as a daughter of a married family, how could she know so many things that were beyond her authority.
After opening the lid of the coffin, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Kurosawa Mika sleeping against the wall of the cage.
Mordred also struck down with a sharp sword.
The old lady didn't even have the chance to shout before she disappeared into thin air.
"It's getting late. Carry Miss Kurosawa out, and then we will hurry to meet up with Lai Guang and Fukuba and go down the mountain together." Taiyi said as he was about to help Fang Xili to drag Kurosawa out of the night spring water in the flower bush.
Perhaps because of the uncoordinated movements of the two, Kurosawa Mika opened her eyes before she came out of the coffin.
"Is this... Yuri? And also, Ms. Iwanaga, Ms. Shinjo, Mr. Naruto, and many strangers... No, you, you are not Momohase-san?" Kurosawa Mika looked at everyone with a confused look on their faces.
"There's no time to explain, we have to leave here quickly!" Taiyi urged.
"Huh? Ah..." Looking at her wet skirt, Kurosawa Mika symbolically covered her chest with her arms.
After escaping from the coffin, Taichi handed Kurosawa Mika to Furuoha Yuri and Hinasaki Shinku who came forward, then carried Iwanaga Kotoko on his back and quickly left with Mordred leading the way and Jeanne at the end of the team.
Looking at the evil spirits that appeared from time to time, and the spirit dressed as a shrine maiden floating in the air, Kurosawa Mika's face turned pale.
She finally understood where this place was.
And she began to recall intermittently how she was deceived and lured here.
"Come on if you've got the guts! You idiots!" Lying on Taichi's back with her cloak rolled up into a long strip, Iwanaga Kotoko taunted the evil spirits around her.
But no evil spirit dared to come forward.
After all, Mordred's previous killing spree and Taichi's use of the cloak for forced purification had already spread among the evil spirit circle of Rishang Mountain.
This is not an opponent they can handle.
As soon as he rushed out of the gate of the palace, he met Minamoto no Raikou and Hinasaki Fukaba who were returning.
"We've checked it, and the cable car can continue to be used." Hinasaki Fukaha, who was lying on Minamoto no Raikou's back in the same state as Iwanaga Kotoko, eagerly told her the results of her inspection after getting off her back. "The battery has been installed. Just get into the cable car and press the start button to start it!"
At this moment, time has entered the devil's time.
More and more evil spirits began to gather around the Ghost Palace.
"Lead the way with Raikou!" Taichi shouted, "Mordred, you take care of the left side! I'll take care of the right side! Jeanne continues to protect the back of the team."
"Yes!"
Three combatants and one quasi-combatant surrounded the people who had no combat ability and hurriedly ran towards the direction of the cable car stop.
The evil spirits were still just watching from the surroundings, not actively attacking.
But Taiyi remained on edge and didn't dare to relax at all.
In the middle of the team, Xin Tiao Qian held her cell phone in her pocket with one hand, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.
Chapter 48 Hinasaki Fukaha: It’s definitely not over yet
The cable car, with rust all over its body, was parked on the railroad tracks, surrounded by weeds.
After breaking into the cable car, Taiyi asked everyone to gather around the cable car control panel, then lifted his cloak and directly opened the hemispherical defensive barrier of the cloak.
Be sure to be careful of any blind spots in your sight so as not to be attacked by anyone.
Hinasaki Fukaba operated the console quite skillfully.
With a creaking sound, everyone paused slightly, and the cable car gradually accelerated and began to move away from its original location.
Six minutes later, the cable car stopped at the starting station. Taiyi removed the defensive barrier, put on his cloak, and led everyone quickly down the mountain.
At this time, the light of the setting sun had been completely covered by Rishang Mountain on the other side of the mountain.
"There are too many of us, so it might be difficult to get a taxi." Taiyi looked at the people gathered in a circle around him, scratched his head and said in embarrassment.
"I can call a few friends to pick us up," Kurosawa Mika said with an embarrassed look on her face, "but I'm worried that if we get too close to Mt. Higami, my friends might get hurt."
"Then let's go a little further towards the town," Iwanaga Kotoko suggested. "Once we get into an area where monsters dare to stay, I can find a few larger monsters to take us back."
"Gulp, gulp--" Perhaps because they realized that the environment they were in had become safe, the stomachs of many people present began to growl.
"Let's go to my cafe first, I'll make dinner for you." Kurosawa Mika said, gathering her wet hair.
In the end, the monsters that Kotoko Iwanaga found were three pythons of quite large size.
Taichi and his friends didn't have any extra reaction, but normal people like Momose Haruka were so scared that they didn't dare to sit down.
In the end, there was a fighter sitting on each python, and they dared to huddle together and climb onto the python's back.
"It's icy cold...remember to prepare some ginger soup to ward off the cold when you get home." Taiyi reminded Kurosawa Mika who was sitting behind him.
Only four people, Iwanaga Kotoko, Shinjo Akane, Taichi and Kurosawa Mika, were sitting on the python's back.
"Well... Thank you so much for helping me this time." Kurosawa Mika moved forward with some fear, "If it weren't for the fact that we haven't been pushed into the use stage yet, Hinasaki Fukaba, Momohiro Harukawa and I would have melted into the night spring water right after the 'start'."
Hinasaki Shinku is different from them. She has been here for almost ten years and has long entered the usefulness stage, but for some reason she acted as if nothing happened after coming out of the coffin.
"It's okay for the two of them, but Miss Kurosawa, you should have been implicated by our group. We should be the ones to say sorry to you." Taiyi said, scratching his head awkwardly.
"No, it has nothing to do with you." Kurosawa Mika shook her head and replied, "The selection of the Jinchuuri cannot be completed so quickly."
"Momomoses Haruka was chosen as a female bandit, so the selection process was not that strict, but Miss Fukaba who was imprisoned in Yougong and Shuishang Palace was different from me." Kurosawa Mika showed some regret on her face, "It takes years of careful observation. I think I should have been targeted when I first entered Hijo Mountain."
"But Miss Shenyu... She must have been affected by Lady Crimson, which is why she was chosen to perform the ceremony in You Palace so quickly."
"Ah, come to think of it, when we rescued Lady Crimson, the old lady who led us called her 'Yequanzi'. Is it related to this?" Iwanaga Kotoko asked, "By the way, what is Yequanzi?"
"I really don't know about this." Kurosawa Mika also shook her head in confusion, "This is the first time I've heard of the name Yequanzi."
……
Thanks to the usual tricks used by monsters to confuse people's sight, the three pythons and the group of people were not discovered until they arrived at the entrance of Kurosawa Antique Coffee Shop.
"You go in first. We need to go back to the room to change clothes and shoes." Kotoko Iwanaga said to Kurosawa Mika and others while standing at the door of the hotel next to the coffee shop.
"Well, you guys have to come quickly." Fang Xili reminded them uneasily, then entered the coffee shop.
They also had to change their clothes and shoes as quickly as possible.
Especially the four people who soaked in the night spring for a long time.
After changing her clothes, Hinasaki Fukaha walked out of the room with a somewhat shocked expression on her face.
She was wearing the student uniform that Fang Xili used to wear.
The skirt underneath was fine, but the top was so baggy that her collarbone was showing.
But Bai Baise Haruka, who also couldn't change into Fang Xili's sportswear, filled her top to the brim.
Among the people of similar age, she was the only one who seemed out of place.
But when she saw Hinasaki Shinku, who had changed into Kurosawa Mika's casual clothes, appear in the lobby on the first floor, the expression on her face became more resentful.
I'm afraid this inheritance is not enough.
"What's wrong? Did I not wipe it clean?" Hinasaki Shinhong felt uneasy when her daughter looked at her. She looked at herself doubtfully, trying to see if there was anything wrong.
"By the way, where are Miss Iwanaga and Miss Shinjo?" Fang Xili looked around the room and didn't see any of them, so she looked at Taiyi, who had been looking at them with admiring eyes since the beginning, and asked.
"They haven't changed their clothes yet." Taiyi, who just took a shower and changed into clean clothes, answered.
In addition, Akane Shinjo also has to help Kotoko Iwanaga maintain her prosthetic limb, which will definitely take a lot of time.
But with Taiyi in the room, as well as the three powerful warriors, Fang Xili's uneasy mood gradually stabilized.
"Although it may be a little late to say it now." Hinasaki Fukaha took her mother's hand and came to Taichi and the others, then bent down deeply, "Thank you so much for saving my mother and me from Rishang Mountain."
The girl couldn't change Fang Xili's top because it was a bit loose for her, so she was very sincere when she thanked her.
Ms. Hinasaki Crimson beside her was no less impressive.
"Ah, well...I appreciate your gratitude." Taiyi responded somewhat awkwardly.
Considering Hinasaki Fukaha's many years of experience in the entertainment industry, I think this should have been within her calculations.
"Thank you, everyone." Hinasaki Shinku's condition was not very good. She seemed that her mind was still not here, so she was distracted from time to time.
Hinasaki Fukaba also noticed her abnormality, so she kept holding her hand, fearing that her mother would disappear from her life again when she was not paying attention.
After the mother-daughter duo expressed their gratitude, Harukawa Momomoses also came over and said a few words.
Taiyi was not sure what her condition was before, but judging from what she had done now, she had regained her desire to survive and probably would not want to commit suicide again.
Chapter 49 Everyone is calculating
"We have to find a way to wake you up from Rishangshan's 'temptation'."
When Kotoko Iwanaga brought Akane Shinjo into the cafe, the first words she said made everyone present nervous.
"In other words, is there a possibility that we will be led to Mt. Higami and locked in a box?" Momohiro Harukawa looked at Iwanaga Kotoko in fear and asked.
"Of course." Iwanaga Kotoko shrugged and replied, "We just brought you out. We haven't yet eliminated the 'temptation' that Higamiyama had for you."
"How can we resolve it?" Hinasaki Fukaha held her mother's hand tightly and asked Iwanaga Kotoko anxiously.
"Ms. Kurosawa, do you know any psychics in shrines or temples?" Iwanaga Kotoko asked Kurosawa Mika.
"No." Kurosawa Mika shook her head without even thinking about it and replied, "Most of the people in the industry that I know are no longer alive."
The mortality rate of psychics is quite high.
After all, psychics who get involved in dangerous situations related to the psychic world basically have to experience a life-and-death experience.
Most of the psychics in this area fled or died because of the existence of Rishangshan.
"In that case... we can only leave here for now and look for another place. Although I'm not very popular, those psychics in the industry will not refuse help in this regard." Iwanaga Kotoko touched her chin and looked at Momohiro Harukawa, "But, can you leave with us?"
"...I have to tell my friends first." Baibaise Haruka replied nervously.
During the time she was missing, the only person looking for her was her friend. Her family members treated her as if she didn't exist and no one even called the police.
"I'll lend you the phone in the lobby. Given our current situation, it's better not to meet in person to avoid implicating others," Kurosawa Mika reminded.
Haruka Momohase was stunned for a moment, then thanked Mika Kurosawa and went to call his friend.
"What do you say?" Taiichi looked at Kurosawa Mika, Furuho Yuri, and Hinasaki and her daughter and asked.
"I saved a lot of money when I was working before." Hinasaki Fukaha nodded and said, "This money is enough for my mother and I to live for a while without doing anything, so... please take us with you."
Hinasaki Shinkuen didn't say anything, but just looked at her daughter with guilt.
Hinasaki Fukaba suffered this misfortune because she was trying to find herself who had abandoned her without permission and disappeared.
But his life was nearing its end, and it was impossible for him to accompany her for long.
"We have no objection." Kurosawa Mika held Fang Xili in her arms, "We still have some savings, and this store doesn't make money from its main business, so it doesn't matter if we close it for a while."
"In fact, this might allow me to devote myself to teaching Xili to master her abilities."
"Um!" Hinasaki Fukaha looked at Kurosawa Mika and interrupted her, "If possible, could you please teach me too?"
Hinasaki Fukaha's ability is indeed powerful, but she has no mentor who can help her master this ability.
To the point that she would constantly "watch" the people around her because her abilities were out of control.
