From Earthbound Spirit to Tokyo Evil

"That's right. Those guys are obviously direct descendants. A wandering ghost like you, Randall, definitely won't have the chance to get to know them."

This provocation was a bit too obvious, but Randall couldn't help but snort again.

"I'm a little curious, what is the relationship between the aliens in the United States and the Watchers? Are they peripheral? Non-staff? Or informants? I heard that there are many new religions in the United States. Can they do this under the noses of the Watchers?"

"Why do you care?"

"We are now considered members of the Watchers. We may be transferred to the United States in the future. It is better to know something in advance than nothing, right?"

"Watchmen?" Randall sneered. "You're dreaming. If I'm a wandering ghost, then you're just stray dogs on the roadside. You still want to go to the United States? Kamiya, you should pray that the Scott Group will never be disbanded, otherwise, you'll probably end up being cannon fodder in Siberia or Southeast Asia. By the way, haven't you fought against werewolves before? You might have to deal with them often in the future."

"I don't care." Xia Chuan said. "Don't worry, if we are still together then, I won't laugh at you."

Randall became angry, but after looking around, he finally narrowed his eyes, pointed at Xiachuan, and told him to be careful.

After he left, Yokota Bunta suddenly asked cautiously: "Well, um, Kamiya-kun, do you want to know these? I can go and ask around. That guy talks a lot after drinking, so I should be able to get some information out of him."

Xia Chuan looked at him, wondering why this guy wanted to please him.

However, this is not a bad thing.

"Then please."

"No, no! Please rest assured, I will definitely..." Yokota Fumita said hurriedly.

At this time, Derek finally came over.

"They left?" Xia Chuan asked.

"We have concluded the on-site evidence collection, and the search in the vicinity doesn't look like it will yield any results," Derek said. "You can go back now."

"Any clues?" Xia Chuan asked.

"I got some blood samples, but they probably won't do anything."

After all, they are not the police and can take any action without evidence. Although it is possible to find people related to these blood samples through DNA matching, the probability is...

Xia Chuan was suddenly startled.

Could it be the time when Kiryu Kazuryū was grabbed in the stomach?

Although he immediately used his divine power to heal Kiryu Ichiryu's injuries, blood dripped onto the ground?

"Kiryu! Where have you been?" he immediately asked through the magatama.

"I'm just about to go back."

"Don't go back to the Kiryu Group yet. They've already got your blood sample and may be able to track you down. Find a place to hide for a few days and don't stay in one place."

"Yes." Kiryu Ichiryu answered calmly.

"The Kiryu Group..."

"Don't worry about them." Kiryu Ichiryu replied. "As the Yakuza, they should have realized it long ago. I will inform the Yaodao Clan."

Having such an attitude towards his subordinates... Xia Chuan really didn't know what to say.

Intellectually, he knew that this was right, especially as a supernatural being, as a god, he should do so. But emotionally, he really couldn't regard his subordinates as people who could be abandoned at any time.

"Be careful, I will continue to pay attention to your situation."

"Yes." Kiryu Ichiryu replied.

Although it is not a good thing, if the other party really finds people and things related to Kiryu Kazuryū because of this, it will be enough to prove that the prophecy prop was really transported to Tokyo.

"Asakawa, make that call for me." Xiachuan immediately changed the person he was talking to.

According to Long Qingting, Cheka would not miss an opportunity to destroy the Watcher's prophecy prop, right?

Chapter 195 Informed

"Are you in such a hurry?" This time, Long Qingting answered the phone directly. It seemed that the number of Asakawa Manabu's encrypted phone had been included in his trusted list.

"The Special Management Bureau shouldn't refuse the opportunity to destroy the Watcher's prophecy prop, right?" Xia Chuan asked.

"Of course not. However, to make those old guys make up their minds, we must have solid evidence and intelligence." Long Qingting said. "So, let the Cheka do it. I will find an excuse to go to the Northeast tonight. Natasha suffered such a big loss in Tokyo before. She should not refuse such a chance for revenge."

"You're coming to Tokyo?" Xia Chuan was a little surprised.

"No, skipping work and wandering around the country is fine, but if you leave your post and run to a sensitive area like Tokyo, those old guys will go crazy." Long Qingting laughed. "My skill also has a distance limit. It can only work within 500 kilometers. However, there are only a few Cheka bases in East and West Siberia, and most of them are in the coastal areas. I should be able to find her if I go to the border."

is that true?

Xia Chuan wondered if he was being too suspicious, but he couldn't help wondering if this was just like what he had done in Guam before, deliberately making the Watchers believe that the power of the Skeleton Society could not be exerted outside of Tokyo.

"I'm sorry you made such a special trip."

"It's okay. When I need your help in the future, just return the favor." Long Qingting's hearty laughter came from the phone. "However, you have to make sure that the Watcher really brought the thing. This matter can be big or small. You don't want to add an unnecessary enemy besides the Watcher, right?"

"I'll confirm this." Xia Chuan said.

The people sent by the Watchers shouldn't have to wait too long. At least Xiachuan felt that they would not give Kiryu Ichiryu a chance to escape.

He began to monitor the main members of the Kiryu Group and the movements around their base, while also monitoring Kiryu Ichiryu and the scattered and hidden demon swordsmen.

However, the other party did not attack in these two directions. Later the next night, Baba Hiroshi suddenly called the emergency contact number he had given him. "Someone from the Watcher suddenly started investigating Akasaka's previous investigation report on Kiryu Ichiryu and the Kiryu Group, and paid special attention to the relationship between the Kiryu Group and the redevelopment of the Nishiokyu shopping street, so... I think I should let you know about this."

I actually forgot there was such a connection... Xia Chuan was speechless.

and……

"Akasaka knew about the relationship between the Kiryu Group and the shrine a long time ago?"

"You didn't know?" Baba Hiroshi was a little surprised. "Such speculation has been around for a long time. After all, the Skeleton Society would never allow the Yakuza to mess around near their shrine, and it is in the interests of the shrine for the Kiryu Group to prevent redevelopment. Moreover, there are also great doubts about the identity of Kiryu Ichiryu, as if he suddenly appeared from hell... However, only a few people in Akasaka know this."

"What else?" Xia Chuan suddenly felt stupid for always thinking that this line was independent and safe.

"Since Deputy Ishino, the Kiryu Group has been considered as a peripheral organization of the Skeleton Society, and has been secretly monitored and investigated. After the relationship between Akasaka and the Skeleton Society improved, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and rifts, the investigation was immediately suspended and only minimal attention was maintained. After Interim Deputy Kuroda took office, he also maintained this policy. Moreover, we just realized that both of them seemed to have concealed this matter from Tokyo Watch, and the archived files should have been modified in some way..."

"What's the reaction from the Watchers?"

"We didn't get any feedback, and we don't know whether Kuroda's temporary agent was reprimanded."

"Who else are you following?" Xia Chuan asked.

People like Baba Hiroshi originally meant nothing to him, but in this situation, their importance suddenly became apparent.

"All the original residents of Nishiokyu Commercial Street were once listed as persons of concern, especially the izakaya next to the shrine. Even now, the owner, Matsushigegoro, is still under scrutiny. However, there is no clear report in the documents that calls for special attention and in-depth investigation of anyone. At least that's the case in the documents we can see now."

If Matsushige Goro has always been listed as a person of concern, then there is no reason for Yui, who is also an important member of Tsuruso, to be spared, but why?

Moreover, could it be that those arrangements made by Kentaro Sato, which he thought were made to protect Yui, had already been seen by everyone but just not spoken out?

The information does not mention any special attention or in-depth investigation. Is it true that there is no such thing, or has it been deliberately tampered with, like the information about Kiryu Kazuryū?

If the relationship between Kiryu Ichiryu and Yui is investigated...

Suddenly, a sense of anger emerged from somewhere in Xia Chuan's heart, making him want to destroy everything.

If Kuroda Koji already knew about the relationship between the Skeleton Society and Yui, then what were his considerations that made him keep doing nothing?

Did they also see his previous contact and interaction with Yui as Hiroshi Kamiya?

He suddenly had a strong urge to capture Kuroda Koji and interrogate him, but in what capacity should he do so and what questions should he ask him?

The prophecy prop in the hands of the watcher is like a sniper rifle that is hidden somewhere in the dark. You only know that it is aiming, but you don’t know who it will pull the trigger at.

Kawaguchi Reina? Kiryu Kazuyuu? Or Aoki Yui?

Has Hiroshi Kamiya's identity been exposed? Is there any point in still acting in these dramas?

"My Lord God, Long Qingting called!" Asakawa Manabu suddenly reported to him.

"I've found Natasha's location. How's the situation on your side? Have you confirmed that they brought that thing to Tokyo?"

"It's basically confirmed. If my judgment is wrong, I will satisfy her in other ways." Xia Chuan replied.

"That's fine. She's not too far from me. I'll go talk to her." Long Qingting said. "I'll convince her to go to Tokyo as soon as possible. The rest is up to you."

"Thank you." Xia Chuan said. He hesitated for a moment and asked again, "Long Qingting, won't your actions be monitored by the Special Management Bureau? They didn't ask you to..."

"The kind of official equipment with positioning and monitoring capabilities?" Long Qingting asked. "Of course I asked for it, but they always broke down for various reasons. After a long time, no one asked me to carry those things with me."

Chapter 196 Chain

Long Qingting said it so easily, but Xia Chuan could fully imagine how much it would cost for someone of his status to receive such treatment, how much suspicion he would have to endure, and more importantly, how powerful he would have to be to force the Special Management Bureau to turn a blind eye.

Can Hiroshi Kamiya follow the same path as him?

Become another Long Qingting within the Watcher?

Xia Chuan immediately rejected this idea. His personality was too different from Long Qingting's, and their environment was too different. The people and things around him must be even more different. And the Watchers and the Special Management Bureau must also be very different.

More importantly, as a god, how could he possibly follow others' advice and follow the same path as others?

"I'll wait for your call."

Cheka must know more about the Watchers than he does, and must know more about the prophecy props. With their participation, the possibility of finding those guys hiding in the darkness and destroying that thing before them will be much greater.

Even if nothing can be done, the re-entry of such an old rival into Tokyo will certainly be a huge pressure for the Watchers, enough to divert some of their attention from tracking down matters related to themselves.

That should be a trap that was designed a long time ago. No matter how cunning those Watchers were, they could not predict when he would target them, when, where, and how he would choose to attack. But they must have a complete set of plans to deal with similar situations, so they were able to launch such a siege on Kiryu Kazuryū in such a short time.

Xia Chuan recalled the details bit by bit.

Life Church, Anroses, are these names real, or are they lies made up to deal with this situation?

The guy who calls himself Anroses must be a god. Although the timing and manner of his appearance are different from Xiachuan, his action pattern is exactly the same.

His real body is probably not in Tokyo, but in the distant United States. This makes him, like Xiachuan, unable to directly exert his power and can only carry out his plans through the body of the priest.

But what is His relationship with the Watchers?

Collaborators? Members? Or, as He said, the Watchers are just the playthings of some god?

This is simply...

The fight between those guys and Kiryu Ichiryu was also strange. Several of them were clearly human, but they had parts that shouldn't be on humans. Was this the power that Anroseth gave them? Just like the power he gave to the miko?

Would Derek know about this? What about J and M?

Or are they also kept in the dark?

The next day, Natsukawa did not go to school in the afternoon, but went to the headquarters of Scott's team. Sure enough, Yokota Bunta's expression showed that he had obviously got a lot of information. When Natsukawa was sitting next to the training ground watching the newcomers train, he came over to say hello and calmly stuffed a stack of papers into Natsukawa's hands.

It was kept mysterious, but their conversation that day must have been recorded by the eavesdroppers.

Natsukawa didn't think there was anything suspicious about the questions Hiroshi Kamiya asked. However, since Bunta Yokota did this, it was not easy for him to open the papers and read them in front of too many people. He could only stay there for a while and then slipped to the rooftop alone.

The handwriting was ugly and sloppy, so Xia Chuan had to hold his nose and half guess and half read before he finally figured out what he had written.

The entire continent is the territory of the Watchers, and its core is the United States and Canada in the north. Although there are also aliens in these places, they are under the strict control of the Watchers. Most of them are non-staff members of the Watchers, accepting the direct management and assignment of the Watchers, and performing tasks regularly in exchange for legal identities, so that they can live on that land like humans.

The countries to the south of the United States are all colonies of the United States. The governments of these countries are puppets of the United States. The local forces are very powerful. Behind these local forces, most of them are heterogeneous organizations that are loyal to the Watchers, accept their leadership, and pay tribute to them regularly. These guys are considered peripheral members of the Watchers, who specialize in doing dirty work for the Watchers and often have to cooperate with the Watchers' requirements to provide people and money to carry out some very dangerous tasks that do not benefit them at all.

The reward they get is that they can do whatever they want in their own territory. As long as they don't disobey the orders of the watchers, fulfill their responsibilities conscientiously, and are not too powerful to make the watchers feel threatened, no one will interfere no matter what they do.

Randall is a member of an alien family in a small country in Central America. He was sent to the United States to fulfill his family's responsibilities and is considered a non-staff member of the Watchers.

It is conceivable that in the United States, he has neither power nor influence and his status is awkward, so being sent to a place like Tokyo is a good result for him.

The premise is that you don't get targeted by the Styx and killed like Henman and Parcel.

It was more chaotic and disordered than Xia Chuan had imagined before. It could even be said that it overturned his understanding of the world.

He originally thought that humans had become the masters of this world, but now it seems that, at least in the areas under the control of the United States, this is not the case at all.

Apart from the destruction of the original system of gods and the replacement of it with the rule of the Watchers, there seems to be no fundamental change in anything else.

What about Daxia and Lucia? What about Europe?

"The police are taking action!" Asakawa Manabu sent out the alarm at this time. "It seems that Akasaka has also received the order to cooperate."

The target was indeed the Kiryu Group. A large number of police officers suddenly rushed out and raided the Kiryu Group's headquarters and main business locations. Because Kiryu Ichiryu did not issue a warning in advance, almost all the core members of the Kiryu Group were arrested.

This move was definitely a warning to the Skeleton Society to see how they would react.

Confrontations in this area do not require any direct evidence; personal conviction is enough to determine many things.

Since they have linked Onimusaki to Kiryu Ichiryū, and linked Kiryu Ichiryū to the Skeleton Society through the Nishiokyu Shopping Street, then Crow Tengu, the previous Onimusaki incident, the attack on the U.S. military base killing pilots, and even the death of important figure T must have all been linked to the Skeleton Society.
