Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful fox

"It seems that the interior of your countermeasures room is also quite complicated."

It has a lot of the style of Japan's army and navy in the past.

"That's right." Asuka Tendo curled her lips and said, "But this is inevitable. After all, the Countermeasures Room has been pieced together from the beginning..."

"More than a hundred years ago, when there was no countermeasure room, the supernatural power in Japan was simply a few major Onmyoji families, plus some miscellaneous psychics, gifted witches or half-demons who learned without a teacher."

"At that time, if the government wanted to solve extraordinary incidents, it would either cooperate with the Yin-Yang Master family or rely on the help of individual staff members who were supported privately."

"Later, as the times progressed and because the government did not want to rely too much on the Onmyoji family, it felt it necessary to establish an independent supernatural management department that was completely under its command. That's why the Countermeasures Office was established."

"But the problem is..."

Hoshino Hideyuki smiled and took over the conversation, "The problem is that most of the extraordinary people are related to the Onmyoji family. If we don't find them, the countermeasures room will not be able to gather people at all?"

"Yes."

Asuka Tendo scratched her head, looking like it was too early for a high school girl to talk about this, and pouted:

"So in the end, the government had no choice but to compromise and recruit a large number of people from Onmyoji families. But in order to check and balance them, it supported people who came from unconventional backgrounds while establishing its own training system."

"Well, even though I come from a big family, I don't really have any problem with this kind of behavior. The more people who can do things, the better. Who cares where they come from?"

"But the problem is that while the government was doing this, it also deliberately let the two sides fight each other, which eventually led to the emergence of two major factions within the countermeasures room."

Asuka Tendo pointed at herself and said:

"One faction is mainly composed of people from the Soul Search Department. They have better relationships with Onmyoji families or are born as Onmyojis. They tend to be traditional in their ideas and have a more peaceful attitude towards the revival of spiritual energy. They also advocate exploring new relationships between humans and monsters."

"The other faction is mainly composed of the Containment Department. They don't really have any ideas of their own. They simply follow orders from their superiors and often go against the Soul Search Department. Their current proposition is to further strengthen the strict management of the supernatural community, arresting and killing as many as possible..."

"...To be honest, putting aside personal emotions, as the spiritual energy continues to revive, that kind of thing is objectively impossible."

Hoshino Hideyuki touched his chin and gained a new understanding of the Countermeasures Room.

The former faction, or the Soul Searching Faction for short, their ideas are actually an extension of the Onmyoji family concept.

Because the Onmyoji family originally came from an era when spiritual energy was still prosperous, they welcome the revival of spiritual energy. Also, because they have rich experience in dealing with various monsters and demons, they are relatively tolerant towards monsters.

Of course, only relative.

There are also many people who will start yelling at you to kill you as soon as they meet you or want to capture you as a shikigami.

The second faction, let's call it the Containment Faction, has ideas that are consistent with those of the government. They are more adapted to the days of spiritual energy decline and hate the revival of spiritual energy - or to put it bluntly, they hate anything that may change the existing order.

On the other side, seeing that Hoshino Hideyuki seemed to understand what she said, Tendo Asuka continued:

"It is precisely because of this background that there is a huge gap between the different departments in our response room."

"Although there is a director in name only to coordinate everything, the director of this generation is weak-willed and comes from a hereditary political family. His abilities are limited. His main job is to close his eyes and review the process, and not cause any trouble for everyone."

As Asuka Tendo spoke, she subconsciously imitated the mature female voice unique to Maki Aoyama. Obviously, the original author of the above comment was most likely the workplace veteran with a long ponytail.

"In short, in this situation, it often happens that one department takes action without telling another department."

"But I didn't expect that the Confinement Department would actually cooperate with a notorious guy like Ruyi Fangzhu this time to imprison a real god. It's simply crazy..."

Asuka Tendo puffed up her cheeks and pulled her ponytail angrily.

Hoshino Hideyuki thought for a moment and said, "Okay, okay, it doesn't necessarily mean they are really cooperating. Maybe there are some links in between that we don't know about."

"But no matter what, what is certain now is that Yukiho is probably being held in the containment area of the countermeasures room."

"Well, it's time to figure out how to rescue her."

Asuka Tendo rubbed her temple and said, "That... is really difficult."

"First of all, if we want to rescue people, we will most likely face off against Hasegawa Daizo. He is the head of the Accommodation Department and the person I suspect was involved in the attack on Yukiho."

"Although he is similar to you, Fox, and both of you only comprehended this realm in the past two years after the revival of spiritual energy, he was already a famous master before that. He has accumulated a lot of experience and his strength should not be underestimated."

"Secondly, and most importantly, the containment zone is a place specifically used to detain various dangerous supernatural beings. For many years, it has been run by the containment department like an iron barrel, with surveillance, guards, mechanisms and barriers everywhere."

"Not only that, they also set up a soul-suppressing circuit on the bottom floor..."

Hoshino Hideyuki raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is that?"

"It's similar to the forbidden magic field in the game." Asuka Tendo said, "Of course the effect is not that abnormal. It can only suppress the spiritual energy to a very low range, but it can't completely ban it."

"But even so, it means at least two things. First, once you get down there, you won't be able to replenish your spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy in your body will dissipate at a high speed. Second, the spiritual energy level around you is very low, so any spell you use will be very conspicuous and easily discovered."

"…Due to the above reasons, even for someone like me who is an insider of the countermeasure room, it is very difficult to get in. Moreover, without a legitimate reason, it is extremely difficult to get close to the deepest and most confidential areas."

At this time, Ichichi Kikuri next to her interrupted:

"It's so dangerous again..."

"Well, can we use some roundabout ways to solve the problem? For example, tell the elders of your Tendo family about this matter, or use the faction of the Soul Search Department to put pressure on them? After all, isn't this matter ultimately just the illegal actions of a few people?"

Hoshino Hideyuki and Tendo Asuka exchanged a glance, and then the latter scratched her head and said, "This is indeed a solution, but I'm not sure how the people in the containment department will react. If higher-ups are involved..."

Hoshino Hideyuki continued, "If this really becomes a point of victory or defeat in a factional struggle, things will become very troublesome, and it will expose our existence, causing subsequent developments to get out of control."

"Of course, if there is a need, or if there is no other way, it is not impossible to do so, but now..."

Hoshino Hideyuki paused, looked at the direction of the street before, and recalled the two people who were slacking off before, and smiled: "I think we can try the old method first."

"So what if the containment area is an iron barrel? I, Master Fox, have sharp teeth and a sharp tongue, so I may be able to tear a crack in it!"

While the fox was discussing the plan with his friends.

Underground, in a secret room tightly wrapped in steel.

Yukiho Amamiya opened her eyes and saw two people in orange biohazard suits approaching her cocoon...

Chapter 292 The female fox has great confidence in the male fox (4K)

"Damn it, this woman is staring at us..."

"Shut up! If you want to get out alive, ignore her and finish the job quickly..."

Through the translucent cocoons, the two people wearing chemical protective suits also noticed Amamiya Yukiho's gaze. They trembled at the same time, sweat appeared on their foreheads, but their hands' movements became faster.

Soon, they poured a bottle of slightly blue turbid liquid evenly on the cocoon, then took out a special match that was shining with purple light, lit it and threw it on the liquid.

call!

The next second, a blue-purple flame burned fiercely, rising more than two meters high and surrounding Yukiho Amamiya.

However, as the surrounding ground was gradually melting under the scorching flames, Yukiho Amamiya's cocoon remained as hard and smooth as before, without any damage at all.

Instead, the two people who set the fire were so burned that they hurried to the front door and knocked on it, trying to get out.

Unfortunately, the door was silent and there was no response.

"Why! We have completed the mission! Let us out now..."

In no time.

Their chemical protective suits were burned with dozens of holes by the scorching smoke. They fell to the ground screaming, and eventually their bodies and clothes turned into ashes.

Ugh……

Inside the cocoon, Yukiho Amamiya sighed softly.

Foolish behavior, it's just pity for these innocent people...

"What you are doing is of no use at all. It's just a waste of lives."

At the same time, in the next room, Himeno Aoi was looking at the cocoon of Yukiho Amamiya on the screen, squinting her eyes, and said this to Akihiko Taniguchi who had a pair of dead fish eyes beside her.

Taniguchi Akihiko didn't care about this accusation at all and replied coldly:

"They are nothing more than two E-class personnel. They are consumables anyway. If they die, they can help us test the power of the new artificial demon fire... Anyway, you are a guy from Yunhai Casino, and you still care about two lives? Stop kidding."

"If we were enemies and were fighting each other, then killing a few people wouldn't really count for anything. But what you're doing now is different... In the final analysis, I simply hate meaningless death."

As she spoke, Ji Ye Aoi recalled the days when she was constantly reincarnated in Tan Lang's dream, and her eyebrows raised unconsciously.

Taniguchi Akihiko next to him replied unhappily:

"Those people are our property. Whether their death is valuable should be defined by us, not you. If you really want to do something, find a way to open that damn cocoon quickly!"

"Your master said he could help, but now it's almost 50 hours and the target completion rate is less than half. How am I going to explain this to the section chief..."

dong dong.

Himeno Aoi knocked on the control panel to stop Taniguchi Akihiko from chattering away, and said with a smile, "I know, I know. I'll try it. That's why I came here."

"Okay, open the door for me."

A minute later, the double-layer alloy doors opened one by one, and Himeno Aoi came into the containment room.

As soon as she raised her head, she met Yukiho Amamiya's eyes, and at the same time, a clear and pleasant female voice sounded in her mind:

"I remember you were called Miss Himeno Aoi, right?"

Ji Ye Kui was slightly stunned, and then he silently said in his mind: "Telepathy? You are in this state, and you can still use this trick? You gods have so many tricks."

"Ha, you're flattered. It's not as exaggerated as you think. I can only do this in this room. And considering the terrible containment environment in the countermeasures room... I'm afraid that in two days, I will be exhausted and lose this ability."

Yukiho Amamiya said with a smile as if she was talking to a friend: "But if I just want to chat with you, it's enough."

Ji Ye Kui curled her lips, walked to the cocoon, and while trying to use the escape technique to feel the nature of the cocoon, she replied: "I don't think we have anything to talk about."

"That may not be the case. I've heard a lot about you from Mr. Smiling Fox, and I have a feeling that we might get along very well."

Damn it, that fox went around saying something about me...

A complex emotion surged in Himeno Aoi's heart, but she said to Amamiya Yukiho jokingly, "Respected God, I advise you not to have any unrealistic expectations. No matter how much you talk, we are still enemies."

"Mmmmm~"

Yukiho Amamiya replied nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I am very aware of this and I don't have any unreasonable expectations. I am just bored being alone and want to talk to someone~"

Himeno Aoi rolled her eyes, did not answer, and examined the cocoon in silence.

Amamiya Yukiho then continued: "Come to think of it, there is one thing I am curious about."

Himeno Aoi: “…”

"Miss Jiye, the reason you followed Ruyi Fangzhu in the first place was because he rescued you from the Tono Secret Realm and promised to help you break the Tono Secret Realm, right? Now that the Tono Secret Realm has been broken, what is your reason for continuing to follow him?"

Yukiho Amamiya said with a smile: "The Ruyi Fangzhu is not an easy guy to serve. His Yunhai Casino is a rotten place that tempts people to go crazy and degenerate."

Himeno Aoi sneered in her heart and replied, "Why, Lord Inari, do you think I'm the kind of person who is ungrateful like Lu Bu and changes sides after getting benefits?"

"Well, I didn't mean that. I'm just curious about your thoughts."

Yukiho Amamiya said slowly:

"Because I think that a girl like you who has endured the suffering of reincarnation and nothingness in the secret land of Tono should attach great importance to the meaning and sense of security in life. It is impossible for you to limit your original intention simply out of gratitude or other similar reasons."

"Unless... you haven't figured out what to do next. Well, I talked to Ms. Sakuragi, and she is actually in this situation, but her attitude is quite positive, so... what about you?"

Himeno Aoi did not answer.

Yukiho Amamiya blinked and said, "Silence can sometimes be a form of answer, Miss Himeno."

"Since you are also a little confused, then...why don't you try a different path? If you want to find the meaning of life, you need to explore more~"

"Your Yunhai Casino had a captain named Xiaolin Yingchen before. He made a new choice. From what I know, he should be living a good life now..."

Himeno Aoi narrowed her eyes:

"So, you still want to persuade me to surrender in the end, right?"

"Oh, you found out."

Yukiho Amamiya stuck out her tongue, calm and composed, not looking embarrassed at all.

Ji Ye Kui curled her lips and changed the subject: "God, for the sake of fairness, I also want to ask you a question."

"Excuse me~"

"You are locked up here, aren't you worried about yourself? You even have the energy to joke with me..."

Ji Ye Kui raised her lips and said, "The cocoon on your outside is indeed difficult to deal with, but it is just a spell after all. It will be broken sooner or later over time, so I can't let you rest easy."

"I never expected to rest easy with this cocoon, nor do I need to count on it." Yukiho Amamiya replied calmly, "Because I will definitely be able to leave here before it breaks."

"You are so confident..."

"This is not self-confidence, but the prophecy of God~"

"What is the basis for the prophecy? The fox?"
