Eriri keenly noticed something was amiss with the time and frowned as she said, "That's strange! Why did Kato Megumi have to endure a year of agony? Do all youkai have this kind of wicked taste for torturing people?"
Being completely forgotten for a whole year, just thinking about it makes Eriri feel cold all over.
"Who knows? Most monsters like fearful humans. It's said that their bodies and souls are delicious..."
His gaze shifted to Kato and her daughter again, and Chi Feicheng said seriously, "Or maybe it just wants to take revenge on you."
"Revenge on our family?"
Kato's mother's head was full of question marks, and she quickly shook her head in denial.
"No, Xiaohui's grandmother and I are both only children. We don't have any brothers or sisters, and no one is missing..."
As they talked, Kato and her daughter both felt something was wrong.
The two looked at each other and saw expressions of horror on each other's faces.
"Your guess is correct, because your sisters have all been sacrificed..."
"It's just you who have forgotten."
Chi Feicheng sighed. What happened to the Kato family was truly tragic.
It was a kind of unconscious despair, which could not be described as cruel and inhumane.
After all, no one remembers what happened before.
Now Chi Feicheng is completely certain.
Kato's mother also had an older sister.
It was just sacrificed.
So she forgot her memory.
Chi Feicheng couldn't even imagine it.
How heartbroken they will be when their memories are restored.
The curse of that monster is so vicious that it is outrageous!

[Chapter 100] The Morino family's old house in Kuwata District, Kyoto
From Kyoto to Kyoto.
The drive takes about an hour.
Kato Megumi, Chi Feicheng and Eriri went ahead.
Kato's mother stayed at home waiting for her husband and eldest daughter to come back, and then drove over.
Just got a useful clue from home.
Chi Feicheng rushed to Kyoto without stopping.
Kato Megumi couldn't help but feel very grateful.
After all, she and Chi Feicheng only have an employment relationship.
And we just met at noon.
There is no need for the other party to go to this extent.
This moment is in Kato Megumi's heart.
I have automatically imagined Chi Feicheng as a knight who slays demons and monsters in TV dramas. He cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes and will go there immediately when he hears any news about the demon.
Of course, Chi Feicheng is definitely not that great.
I just encountered a monster I had never seen before. Besides being curious, I also wanted to try out the Hundred Monsters List I got last night.
If the monster is of good quality, he can also use it for his own benefit.
Along the way, Kato Hui gave Chi Feicheng a detailed introduction to her mother's family.
Kyoto belongs to the Osaka economic zone, and "Six-Seven-Three" is located in the western part of Sakura Province and is an inland city.
Kato's mother's hometown.
Nestled on the edge of a mountain somewhere in Kyoto.
Because the people there have been planting mulberry trees and raising silkworms for generations.
There are mulberry forests everywhere that look like rice fields.
So it was named Sangtian District.
In the past, silk and weaving have been the main source of income for the residents of Sangtian District.
Many small workshops came into being, and Morinoya was one of the best.
Even in the Taisho and Showa eras, Kato's mother's family owned the largest weaving workshop in Kuwata District.
It is said that the cloth produced by the Morino family in those years was of distinct quality, durable, and felt as smooth as silk.
But later, for some reason, by the time of Kato's grandmother's generation, the weaving workshop gradually declined and was eventually forced to close down.
It was also because of the family's decline that Kato's mother went to Kyoto to attend university and eventually met Kato Megumi's father.
Otherwise, according to Kato's grandmother, Kato Megumi should now be called Morino Megumi.
It is obvious that from Kato's grandmother to the previous generations, they all seem to have followed the tradition of recruiting a son-in-law.
"Xiaohui, don't you find it strange that every generation on your mother's side has only given birth to daughters?"
Eriri, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned her head and spoke to Kato Megumi in the back, her eyes full of suspicion.
"Yeah, if I hadn't met Mr. Chi, I wouldn't have thought about it this way."
"But when I think about it carefully, it feels like there's a mysterious force controlling our destiny."
Kato Megumi smiled bitterly and nodded. How could she, who was so smart, not think of this?
Chi Feicheng comforted him while driving:
"The curse planted by the monster in your bloodline can easily affect your chances of having a daughter..."
"Don't think you have the blood of a monster. It's just a medicinal ingredient. Just treat it as a traditional Chinese medicine that can help you give birth to a daughter."
Hearing this, Eriri didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If you say that, I wonder how many parents who want a daughter will cry and go looking for that monster."
Kato Megumi, who had been feeling a little depressed, was amused by her words.
Time always passes quickly when chatting.
When the dark blue commercial vehicle drove into a slightly run-down town.
We have arrived at Sangtian District.
With the advent of the era of large-scale industry.
The living space for small workshops is becoming increasingly narrow.
Now only a few workshops remain in Sangtian District.
In addition, more and more young people are moving to big cities.
The rest of the people here are basically old people.
Some continue to raise silkworms, while others have started to take care of their elderly.
Under the guidance of Kato Megumi.
The business car soon stopped in front of a mansion.
"Wow~ Xiaohui, your hometown is so big?"
Ying Lili got out of the car.
I was surprised by the size of the mansion.
Because this house is really big.
Except it looks a bit old.
The combined area is larger than Chi Feicheng's office.
Spiritual consciousness spread out.
Four rooms in the east, south, west and north, a hall, a courtyard, a living room and a study...
Even Chi Feicheng, who is always knowledgeable, was a little surprised.
I didn’t expect that Kato Megumi is actually a wealthy woman.
The old house under the setting sun in the evening reveals the sedimentation of history, and the house appears rather dim.
But this is not the point.
The spiritual consciousness took a quick look.
Chi Feicheng discovered that the entire house was filled with evil spirits, in every corner.
That monster seemed to have stayed in the Morino family for a long time.
But unfortunately, after searching for a while, no trace of the monster was found.
Walking through the atrium to the hall, there are several runes that are popular in Sakura Province to ward off evil spirits in the house pasted in the middle.
All the furniture in the house looked extremely old, giving Chi Feicheng the illusion of having traveled back to several decades ago.
Ying Lili was very curious about these old things. Growing up in the city, she rarely had the opportunity to see these things.
"Xiaohui, you seem very familiar with the old house. Did you come here often before?"
Chi Feicheng discovered that when walking in an old house with many entrance halls and corridors, Kato Megumi, who was leading the way, knew the specific location of each room without having to think about it.
"Yeah, when I was little, my parents were very busy, so they always sent me to my grandma's house during the holidays. I often ran around the house when I was little, and then I naturally became familiar with it."
"Have you ever been to the basement?"
"Huh? There's a basement here? How come I didn't know about that?"
Kato Megumi was slightly stunned.
I can’t understand why Chi Feicheng, who has never been to the old house, thinks her house has a basement?
Anyway, she has no impression at all.
"Let's go, the basement is right below the Buddhist temple..."
Seeing Kato Megumi's confused look, he knew that she knew nothing, so Chi Feicheng simply took the initiative and walked in front.
There was a strange and curious look in Kato Megumi's eyes, but out of trust in Chi Feicheng, she didn't ask any more questions.
The three of them quickly arrived at the Buddhist temple.
Chi Feicheng directly lifted the blanket on the ground.
Sure enough, there was a wooden door pressed against the floor.
"There really is a basement here?"
Kato Megumi was shocked.
This is where her grandmother usually eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures.
Although Kato Megumi, who has been sensible since childhood, rarely comes here, she has come in to play when she is curious.
She never knew there was a door under the carpet.
He stared at Chi Feicheng's profile with a strange look on his face.
Kato Megumi couldn't understand how he knew that.
Chi Feicheng did not explain.
The magic of spiritual consciousness cannot be explained in a few words.
The wooden door was locked, but it didn't stop Chi Feicheng.
After asking Kato Megumi if he could remove it, he simply tore the lock off.
