I'm having fun in Tokyo

Page 53

Upon arriving at Asada Shrine, the first thing Morikawa Yu saw was Kondo Ran.

She was dressed in a kimono and wearing a golden crown, talking with the other shrine maidens in front of the temple.

When she saw him arrive, her expression changed; she seemed a little scared, but more so, curious.

"Morikawa-kun?"

Chapter 60 Blind Date?

“Yes, it’s me.”

"Miss Lan, is Aunt Liangzi here?"

"Ah...yes, yes."

Kondo Ran quickly said, then waved to the other shrine maidens and looked at Morikawa Yu again.

"Morikawa-kun, please come with me."

Morikawa Yu nodded and then followed her.

Ryoko Kondo is in front of the main hall.

She always seems to be standing here; it's the same every time I come to see her.

"Aunt Liangzi, I'm here."

"Yes, it's good that you're here."

Kondo Ryoko smiled.

"How is He Mei?"

"Mrs. Yuzuru is still somewhat sad, but she's better than yesterday."

"However, Miss Hishitsuki came to our house this morning, saying she'd help me deal with the great demon who'll be visiting me in the future..."

As Morikawa Yu spoke, she looked at Kondo Ryoko with an inquiring gaze.

Even though that's what the great Himeko said, he still felt more at ease after asking Kondo Ryoko.

Kondo Ryoko smiled, as if she knew what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, Fei Yue means you no harm."

"She's friends with your sister, and she's not a monster that feeds on evil; she wouldn't do anything excessive."

"And I actually have the same thought."

"I had originally planned to take you to meet the gods of other regions after some time had passed."

"Mr. Morikawa, I heard from Hiizuki that you seem to really like girls with animal ears, right?"

"The shrine's main statue at Fushimi Inari Taisha is this type, isn't it?"

Ah this...

Morikawa Yu opened her mouth slightly, then paused for a moment.

He didn't react for a moment.

Why would Aunt Liangzi tell him something like that?

He does enjoy discussing what makes something cute with others, but being told this by Ryoko makes him feel as ashamed as if his parents or elders have found out he's watching yuri anime.

"Ah, that's true, but..."

He waved his hand to explain, but gave up resisting under Kondo Ryoko's smile.

Oh well, I'll just consider it a blind date arranged by my elders.

If the other person is a cute girl with animal ears, it's not that hard to accept.

He felt he could give it a tentative consideration.

Well, just for a moment, so I wasn't really looking forward to it.

"It seems you really like this type of girl, then I'm relieved."

Kondo Ryoko continued softly.

"I'm fairly familiar with her."

"She is a deity, but not a human like me. She is a great demon from long ago, and she also knows Scarlet Moon."

Morikawa Yu nodded, but her heart sank.

Good heavens, a great monster from a long time ago.

It definitely has animal ears, but whether it's a girl or not is hard to say.

I guess they'll stay seventeen forever.

"I understand, Aunt Liangzi. Actually, I'm still very young and don't plan to think about getting married."

Morikawa Yu quickly waved his hand.

"That's it"

Kondo Ryoko shook her head slightly, frowning, seemingly somewhat disappointed.

"Never mind, let's not talk about this."

"Morikawa, I've heard about what happened at the Metropolitan Police Department today."

"To be honest, your act of going to the Metropolitan Police Department to commit murder was not a good thing."

"Although they dared not stop us because of the shrine."

"But some people will definitely be dissatisfied."

"If this continues, it will dampen their enthusiasm for cooperating with the shrine."

"While those at the top may not resist, lower- and middle-ranking officers may not be able to accept it."

As Morikawa Yu listened to her words, his expression gradually became serious.

He had actually considered this matter today, but he was unsure of the extent of the shrine's influence on the Metropolitan Police Department.

However, he is now certain that the shrine's control over the Metropolitan Police Department is quite formidable.

He openly committed murder inside, and no one did anything to stop him.

That guy named Kuroda Masao arrived, but he only dared to talk big from beginning to end and didn't dare to do anything to me.

In my previous life, I simply couldn't have imagined such a thing.

But in a world where mystery once triumphed over civilization, it seemed so natural.

"I'll try to be more careful in the future, Aunt Ryoko."

"That's good. You'll be in this position in the future, so you should start thinking about these things."

"However, you've done a good job of cleaning up the evildoers."

"Um"

Morikawa Yu responded, but what she was thinking about was the question she had planned to ask when she came.

To unlock the Nightbringer skin, you must kill 20 evildoers.

But it would be difficult for him to find so many of these guys on his own, unless he raided the Metropolitan Police Department's prison and massacred the prisoners.

But doing so would be unbecoming of his status, and these prisoners had already been tried and were serving their sentences.

Even if he kills, the system may not necessarily mark him as having completed the mission.

He now roughly understands the nature of his system.

He won't gain experience points if he bullies newbies or acts maliciously.

But if he stands on the side of morality, his experience will increase significantly.

Fortunately, he used to be a criminal police officer and was an upright person.

Although he's a bit of a shut-in, he's definitely a good person.

If a person with malicious intentions gets their hands on this system...

Forget about leveling up, it's even hard to gain experience.

"Aunt Ryoko, are you familiar with the Uesugi family's situation?"

"I want to investigate this matter further."

He asked a question and looked at Kondo Ryoko, only to find that her smile gradually faded and her expression became serious.

She looked at Morikawa Yu and sighed softly.

"Morikawa, do you think all Uesugi family members are like him because of Uesugi Yoritada?"

Morikawa Yu paused for a moment as he saw Kondo Ryoko walking towards him.

"I thought that when you were purging the wicked, you would also maintain a sense of justice and treat everyone fairly."

But I think I was wrong.

She finally stood in front of Morikawa Yu and looked him straight in the eyes.

"Mr. Morikawa, you saw that kid, Tatsuya Aso, yesterday, didn't you?"

"What do you think of him?"

Morikawa Yu did not speak.

He thought of Tatsuya Aso standing at the school gate this morning.

The other person expressed their gratitude to them in front of everyone and made a promise to become a police officer in the Metropolitan Police Department, taking them as their life goal.

He also promised him that if he succeeded, he would draw his sword to cheer him on under the Sakurada school.

Although he had just killed a mid-to-high-ranking police officer who had aided and abetted wrongdoing at the Metropolitan Police Department today, Tatsuya Aso was fundamentally different from that person.

He doesn't dislike people like Tatsuya Aso.

Looking into Kondo Ryoko's eyes, he roughly understood what she wanted to say.

After all, the case he was dealing with this time stemmed from an old case from eight years ago.

Aso Tatsuya's father was the one who started this whole thing.

However, Tatsuya Aso is not like his father.

"Aunt Liangzi, I understand what you mean."

"I also admire Tatsuya Aso."

"I just want to understand what exactly is going on with the Uesugi family."

"When you dealt with that exorcist eight years ago, leaving only Aso Tatsuya alive, you must have observed him for a while, right?"

Kondo Ryoko nodded slightly.

"That's right"

"If you just want to know the situation, then I naturally won't say anything."
