The Heaven's Chain of Juwang Academy

"I see. I understand. I will ask Mr. Hiratsuka for leave."

"Okay, that's all."

Today, he took the initiative to find Yukinoshita Haruno. In addition to the matter of the Breathing of Fire, Qin Xiao was also a little uneasy.

It has been more than a week since he was killed by himself in the Lower Moon Continent, and there has been no movement until now, which makes Qin Xiao very confused.

Judging from the boss's temper, I must be regarded as a thorn in his side now.

Although he is very cowardly and will not take action himself, he will definitely send more powerful Lower-rank demons, or even Upper-rank demons. How come it is still so peaceful after so many days?

'click--'

At this time, the toilet door opened and Busujima Saeko came out with a sleepy look on her face.

"Good morning, Mr. Qin Xiao, Miss Xueno."

"Good morning, Saeko."

"Good morning, Ms. Saeko."

Then, Busujima Saeko sat down at the table naturally. On the table, there was also a breakfast for her.

Now here, Yukinoshita Yukino and Busujima Saeko are each responsible for cooking for a day, and they take turns. Today it is Yukinoshita Yukino's turn.

After breakfast, it wasn’t long before it was almost time.

Yukinoshita Yukino and Busujima Saeko went out, and although Qin Xiao was planning to go look for Yukinoshita Haruno, it was still a little early at this time.

At the same time, on the other side of Chiba City, in an upscale bar called 'Angel's Stairway', Yukinoshita Haruno looked a little haggard, and even her eyes were bloodshot.

She hadn't slept well these past few days because several murders had occurred in Chiba, or to be more precise, here.

Within three days, five people disappeared successively, each of them was a young and beautiful woman.

Among these people, three are waiters in this store, one is a pianist who plays the piano in the store, and there is even a sommelier.

The consecutive disappearance of five people naturally caused a huge impact.

Even the shop had to close down. After all, there were five people who worked here and they disappeared one after another. It was hard not to arouse suspicion.

"There is no clue at all. One disappeared after get off work, two disappeared suddenly, and the remaining two disappeared while working in the store."

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes were bloodshot, and she was obviously extremely tired.

This shop belongs to the Yukinoshita family. Although they are not the boss behind the scenes, they are also shareholders who hold the majority of the shares. Now that something like this has happened, how can Yukinoshita Haruno not feel troubled?

Five people disappeared in succession, and there was no warning of their disappearance. Even after their disappearance, there were no calls from the kidnappers or other incidents.

Combining the various cases she had sorted out before, Yukinoshita Haruno immediately came to a conclusion that made her spine chill.

These people were eaten by ghosts.

Although Yukinoshita Haruno was still a little skeptical because she had never seen it with her own eyes, what was happening now forced her to think so.

Because it really cannot be explained, there are no clues and no clues.

'Jingle Bell--'

At this moment, Yukinoshita Haruno, who was anxious, heard the phone ringing.

I picked it up and saw that it was a call from Qin Xiao.

"It's really timely. I was just about to contact you and you called me."

Muttering to herself, Yukinoshita Haruno answered the phone.

During the most urgent few days, she was so busy with these things that she didn't even have time to visit her sister.

"Qin Xiao, how come you have time to call me?"

"Your breathing technique is ready."

"Hmm? It's finally over. I thought you had forgotten about my affairs a long time ago. It was obviously someone else who came first, but you gave it to the eldest daughter of the Busujima family first."

"Okay, stop being so sarcastic. Where are you now? I'll come find you."

"Oh? You came to me on your own initiative? Could it be that, Xiao-chan, you are ready to accept me? I'm very happy, sister."

"Stop talking to yourself. Where are you now?"

"I've sent you the location. I'll wait for you."

‘Ding dong——’

On this side, Qin Xiao then received the location sent by Yukinoshita Haruno.

'Angel's Stairway', is this a bar?

She hadn't been drinking at the bar all night, had she?

Qin Xiao suddenly couldn't sit still anymore. If this woman was picked up by someone in the bar, he would be in trouble.

After all, in the eyes of many people now, Qin Xiao is still the child husband and son-in-law of the Yukinoshita family.

Thinking of this, a hint of anxiety appeared on Qin Xiao's face.

Then he changed his clothes, took the key, placed the Sun Wheel Sword in the sword bag, and Qin Xiao pushed the door and went out.

Because the car of Yukinoshita's family went to take Yukinoshita Yukino to school, Qin Xiao had to take the car by himself if he wanted to go there.

On this side, Yukinoshita Haruno hung up the phone and smiled slightly.

She guessed that Qin Xiao knew where she was and would definitely rush over quickly.

After all, he was in a bar, and the most common thing that happened in bars was "picking up corpses". In the eyes of the other party, he was too dangerous.

Qin Xiao had no idea what Yukinoshita Haruno was thinking right now. Qin Xiao was rushing here as quickly as possible.

Now that the three initial breathing skills have returned to their original positions, Qin Xiao is also looking forward to what will happen if Yukinoshita Haruno learns the breathing of fire. Will she be a genius like Yukinoshita Yukino, or will she have no talent at all.

Chapter 70 The ribbon in the surveillance video!

Arriving at the 'Angel's Stairway', Qin Xiao immediately frowned.

Because here Qin Xiao "smelled" the scent of ghosts, the stench of human blood.

Moreover, several stores around here were all sealed, and they were obviously ordered to close. It seemed that things were getting complicated.

Taking the elevator, we soon arrived at the top floor, where the bar Angel's Stairs is located.

As soon as you enter, you can feel that the place is empty, without a single person.

Qin Xiao looked around and finally saw Yukinoshita Haruno on the sofa not far away, with several cups in front of her.

"You're here~"

There was fatigue in his brows and bloodshot eyes, proving that the other party's situation was not optimistic.

"What's wrong with you? You didn't sleep all night?"

"Well, within three days, five people have disappeared here in succession, and they are all employees here. As the major shareholder of this bar, the Yukinoshita family naturally has an obligation to take responsibility."

"Don't give me that. To be honest, how could the Yukinoshita family, which is so big, hook up with a young lady just because of a small bar?"

Qin Xiao exposed the other party's lie without giving any face. It's just a bar, it's not important at all.

After all, the Yukinoshita family is a wealthy family in Chiba City, so how could they be short of a small bar?

"Well, you are such a boring guy. I am your fiancée, can't you give me some face?"

"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly."

"This bar is now under my name. It's my first test of taking over the Yukinoshita family's business."

"That makes sense. I can understand the test of succession in this way, right?"

"Although there are some deviations, it's almost the same. This bar is just one of them. The real center is naturally on the construction company side. It's just that such a big thing happened here. If it is not resolved, it will be very troublesome in the end."

Yukinoshita Haruno's face turned ugly. It was obvious that this matter was really tricky.

Five employees of the bar she managed disappeared inexplicably within three days. No matter what the reason was, it was ultimately a bad mark in her career.

Even in the future, this incident will become her opponent's weakness to attack her.

“This is not something a human would do.”

"It really is a ghost."

Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Yukinoshita Haruno was not surprised at all, but instead let out a breath.

She had guessed it a long time ago, but had never been able to be sure. Now, she was sure.

"So what do we do next?"

Her eyes fell on Qin Xiao. In her opinion, Qin Xiao was her only life-saving straw.

Qin Xiao naturally understood what Yukinoshita Haruno meant, but he did not intend to refuse. Instead of going through the trouble of looking for a ghost himself, there was one that was delivered to his doorstep.

"Leave this matter to me. You know, even ghosts won't eat so frequently. These people should not have all been eaten. They should have been captured."

"so what should I do now?"

"Find all the surveillance videos for three days within a kilometer around here."

"That's not a problem. Not to mention those within a thousand meters, even those within three thousand meters are available."

"Are you ready?"

"No, I prepared it when the police came to my house. After all, five people have disappeared in a row, and they disappeared suddenly without a trace. Naturally, we need to investigate and collect evidence. Just in case, I also kept a copy."

As he spoke, he took out a laptop from the side, turned it on, and called up all the surveillance videos within a radius of nearly 3,000 meters.

Qin Xiao took it, then opened eight video files at once and displayed them in the same frame on the screen.

At this moment, all the scenes above were taken in by Qin Xiao.

For Qin Xiao now, multitasking is naturally not difficult at all.

In this way, time passed little by little, and Qin Xiao concentrated on scanning the surveillance video. However, the number of all surveillance videos within three kilometers for three days was really too huge.

Even though Qin Xiao divided the screen into eight parts and accelerated it eight times, it still looked very slow.

Yukinoshita Haruno, who was standing nearby, yawned and fell asleep with her head resting on Qin Xiao's legs.

Qin Xiao also noticed it, but did not disturb her.

For the sake of her younger sister, Yukinoshita Yukino, this woman took on all the burdens of the family on her own. This burden and pressure are truly unimaginable.

And she herself is just a twenty-year-old girl.

Although she is mature and has been trained since childhood, she is only twenty years old after all, which is also an age when flowers bloom. However, she has to wear a mask because of family reasons.

Just like that, the entire 'Angel's Stairway' fell into silence.

A man and a woman, one is busy, the other is sleeping soundly.

Time passed little by little, and before he knew it, it was noon. Qin Xiao maintained the same posture for the entire morning.

And it was at this moment that Qin Xiao finally found the clue.

In one morning, from less than eight o'clock to now, a little after twelve o'clock, a total of more than four hours, Qin Xiao watched all the surveillance videos at an inhuman speed.

The focus is on the internal surveillance video of 'Angel's Stairway'.

During the second review, a clue was finally discovered.

'Click——'

Qin Xiao pressed the pause button, and then the paused image was quickly enlarged.

At this time, a pink ribbon with a grid pattern appeared in the corner of the bar counter, and in the surveillance video, the ribbon was still extending.

In Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, there is only one demon that meets the requirements for this ability.

Upper Six: Dakimaki

Dakimaki is a special twin demon among the Upper Moons. Her brother, Kifutaro, usually sleeps on Dakimaki's back and only appears when Dakimaki is defeated or awakened.

And this ribbon is Daki's blood demon art.

Daki can differentiate a clone in the shape of a ribbon from her body. The ribbon clone has its own consciousness, and Daki can also remotely command the ribbon clone.

Moreover, the silk ribbon can suck humans into it, so the silk ribbon can easily transfer humans in the secret passage.

In 'Angel's Stairway', two employees suddenly disappeared while working. Combined with the ribbons that appeared in their arms in the surveillance video, the process is self-evident.
