I'm having fun in Tokyo

"Don't ask me when I'm going back. I can't be bothered to tell you anyway. Don't make a fool of yourself."

"Lord Family God."

Fujiwara Takahiro gave a wry smile.

"A major incident has occurred at home, and we need you to go back and take care of it."

"Please stop being so willful."

"Big news? Ha, what big news?" Asaka snorted.

"What haven't I seen? Why are you all so flustered?"

"If you say it's nothing, then it's nothing. If something really happens, I'll handle it."

"Yes, Lord Igami." Fujiwara Keisuke smiled helplessly.

Although the household god usually seems aloof and lazy, the family has indeed remained prosperous for a thousand years under his protection, without any major incidents.

If he were to question her, his family would likely punish him first.

He thought for a moment, then decided to ask about something else first.

"Lord of the family god, where is Shiori? My elder brother has been very worried ever since she was taken away by His Highness the God, but he has not been able to get any news."

"She is recuperating at Asada Shrine."

This time, Asaka didn't argue with him again, but said something softly.

"This incident has frightened the child, and he will probably need to rest for a while."

"Don't even think about picking her up so soon. Ryoko went to Kyoto, and Human is hospitalized here. The shrine is closed."

"Ryoko's shikigami is guarding the shrine, and it won't open the gates until she returns."

Fujiwara Keisuke, upon hearing her words, was indeed not as happy as before.

He bowed to Asaka, then looked at Morikawa Yu and leaned slightly forward.

"It made you laugh."

"It's alright, please speak freely." Morikawa Yu waved his hand.

This guy was acting all mysterious, saying he had something important to say, but after coming in, he kept getting choked up by Asaka and couldn't say a word.

He wanted to see what this guy wanted from him.

“That’s right, Mr. Morikawa,” Fujiwara Keisuke said solemnly.

“I am a representative of various families in Kyoto. I have come to Tokyo specifically to invite you to visit Kyoto.”

"Going to Kyoto? What for?"

Morikawa Yu became alert.

He remembered that Ryoko had said she wanted to send him to Kyoto to stay with the big fox for a while, to comfort her, and to stop her from doing anything rash.

Why is this guy bringing this up too?

"Of course, I'm asking you to go and rescue them." Fujiwara Keisuke's expression turned serious.

"Rescue?"

“Yes, you may not know this,” Fujiwara Keisuke said, his gaze turning serious. “Princess Ryoko and Princess Shinto are planning a purge in Kyoto.”

"If they really did that, a lot of people would die."

"These past two days, His Highness the Priest has frequently mentioned your name, and His Highness Ryoko also has high hopes for you."

"If you can go and persuade them to give up, many people will be saved because of you."

Morikawa Yu nodded slightly and fell into deep thought.

Good heavens, you're making me go to Kyoto to persuade people, and not only the big fox, but also Yoshiko.

But you said Ryoko and the Great Fox are going to carry out a purge in Kyoto, why would they do that?

Is it possible that Kyoto is a particularly filthy place?

Previously, the incarnation of the Great Fox was that bastard Inari God. Given his personality, he might actually do something like that.

He thought for a moment, then shook his head.

Forget it, don't make decisions about things you don't know.

Let's wait and ask Ryoko and the big fox first.

Otherwise, if you don't know anything and just listen to what the other party says, you might be taken advantage of, ruin their plans, and make things difficult for them.

If there are innocent people who have been implicated, it's not too late to persuade them yourself.

You can also gain experience points along the way.

He added a sentence in his mind.

Keisuke Fujiwara observed Morikawa Yu's expression and was quite disappointed to see him shake his head in refusal.

"If you're willing to go, you can save many people."

Morikawa Yu shook her head again.

"I'm still recovering from my injury and it's difficult for me to move around. Let me think about it some more, and I'll contact you when the time comes."

Fujiwara Keisuke listened to his words, his eyes widening.

Recovering from an injury? Having difficulty moving around?

He recalled how the other person had opened the door for him and stood there, giving him the imposing presence that made him afraid to move. His expression changed, and he looked as if he had swallowed a fly.

Morikawa Yu waved her hand and sat back on the bed.

Asaka also snorted coldly.

"Why don't you leave quickly?"

Chapter 188 I Moved My Blade

Fujiwara Keisuke smiled helplessly, turned around and backed away.

He walked to the door, opened it, then turned back to look at Asaka, hesitant to speak.

"I already said I'll go back if anything happens."

Asaka interrupted him again, her eyes gradually growing impatient.

"Why have you become so disobedient as you've grown up? You were such a well-behaved child when you were little!"

"Hurry up and leave me alone."

As soon as she finished speaking, Morikawa Yu glanced at her and Fujiwara Keisuke with surprise.

Big Cat looks like an old woman who is disobedient to her elders, but she also looks like a young girl.

Even knowing her identity, he still found it a bit strange to hear her say that.

Fujiwara Keisuke couldn't stand it any longer.

He gave an awkward laugh and quickened his pace to leave.

As he came out of the corridor, the secretaries and clerks all stared at him.

Fujiwara Keisuke also looked at them, but they immediately turned their heads away, as if to say, "I didn't hear anything."

"You guys... never mind, let them hear it if they want, it's not like it's anything shameful."

"However, please don't tell anyone."

He sighed, shook his head, and led the people toward the elevator at the end of the ward corridor.

Morikawa Yu stood at the door, watching their departing figures, and heard Asaka's voice behind her.

"I don't recommend that you get involved in things in Kyoto."

He closed the door, turned around, frowned, and saw Asaka drift back to the windowsill, arms crossed, leaning against the side of the windowsill, looking at him with a serious expression.

"I wasn't planning to tell you this, but since this child has come to you, I'll remind you anyway."

Morikawa Yu nodded.

He was also very curious about what Fujiwara Keisuke had just said.

When he first woke up, Ryoko told him that Kyoto needed stability and that she was helping the big fox with his affairs. But Fujiwara Keisuke said that Ryoko and the big fox were going to carry out a purge in Kyoto.

To be fair, he trusted Ryoko and the big fox more than a guy who suddenly appeared.

“You were involved in this matter, so you should know most of the details, right?” Asaka looked at him and said, “That bastard Inari God wanted to murder Lady Mitsuko.”

"Lady Mitsuko hinted to me that she was not right, and that she existed. She also made me pretend to cooperate with her and come to Tokyo."

"After He saw you, influenced by Lady Mitsuko, He angered your wife and His incarnation was destroyed. His consciousness possessed the child Shiori, while Lady Mitsuko's consciousness returned to its original form."

"Then, I don't know how you did it, but you actually figured out His identity and stopped Him before He went to the shrine."

"Lady Ryoko went to Kyoto and lifted Lady Mitsuko's seal."

“I wanted to come out, but when I saw you faint, I took you to the hospital. You only woke up today.”

Morikawa Yu nodded.

What she said was no different from what he remembered about this incident.

"And then?" he asked.

“And then…” She frowned.

"While you were asleep these past two days, I had Nishino and the others deal with the wild cat demons that I created using my demonic power when I came to Tokyo."

"Your Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department also suppressed this incident, so it didn't have much of an impact."

"There's been quite a commotion in Kyoto. Before Lady Mitsuko was unsealed, her power went slightly out of control due to the seal's influence, causing part of Mount Inari to collapse."

"Kyoto Prefectural Police have sealed off Mount Inari and the shrine on the grounds that there are still dangerous controlled items remaining. The people who were previously evacuated are still in the process of being evacuated."

Morikawa Yu frowned, found her phone in her clothes next to the hospital bed, browsed the news, and immediately saw the report on the "Inariyama Explosion Incident in Kyoto City".

Judging from the news content alone, it really does seem like a dangerous attack on Inari Mountain. Although there are a few voices questioning it, it seems more like they are trying to lead this incident to other, more bizarre explanations.

After flipping through the pages for a while, Morikawa Yu determined that a large part of this was likely due to official intervention, manipulating public opinion to provide both an official explanation and to satisfy the curiosity of a small group.

A few days later, another artist or celebrity will "coincidentally" be involved in a scandal or rumor, drawing public attention to the matter, and the whole thing will be pretty much forgotten.

Although he didn't know much about public relations, the Metropolitan Police Department's public relations division had talked to him about these things before.

Morikawa Yu looked at Asaka again.

"That's roughly the gist of the matter, but the problem lies with the upper echelons in Kyoto."

Asaka seemed embarrassed and hesitated for a moment before continuing, "When Lady Yoshiko arrived in Kyoto and arranged countermeasures, she explicitly ordered all the major families that worshipped household gods to maintain the stability of Kyoto at that time."

"But some families disobeyed her orders and fled to Osaka."

"At the time, Lady Ryoko didn't care, but later investigations revealed that these families were more or less connected to that bastard god."

“There are also some families who are taking advantage of this opportunity to make personal gain.”

"They probably thought that after this was over, no one would care about them."

Asaka smiled coldly.

“That damned god, in the past, naturally condoned such things in order to drive them to fight amongst themselves.”

“It’s different now. Lady Mitsuko has woken up, and they are going to be dealt with, so they’re all starting to panic.”

As she spoke, she noticed that Morikawa Yu had stood up.

"what happened to you?"

"I moved the knife."

"You moved the knife?" Asaka tilted her head. "So you're going to help?"

She jumped down from the windowsill again.

"I'm not saying this to make things worse for you. Dealing with these things is very troublesome. You have to collect evidence and determine the specific outcome. Many people have made mistakes, but their crimes don't warrant the death penalty."

"...In short, this matter requires procedural justice, which is different from finding the culprit and then taking out a knife to kill someone."
