People are wreaking havoc in Tokyo, ladies, please stay put!

Even though he should maintain due respect against the newly crowned goddess today, his expression was still very ugly.

Anyone could see that the palace guard was in a very bad mood.

"I'm truly sorry, Your Excellency, the Meiji Shrine should have welcomed you with a higher standard," said the chief priest Daitomohiko with an apologetic look on his face.

"However, too many things have happened at Meiji Shrine recently. The gods are furious, and we are a little overwhelmed."

Yingkong Kurumi looked curiously at the bald old man in white clothes with dark patterns in front of her.

Although Shintoism has undergone a century of social development and integration, the restrictions on believers who do not serve in shrines have become very relaxed.

As a goddess, according to the rules, she should visit the largest shrine in Tokyo, Meiji Jingu.

When I arrived here and met him, I found that the chief priest of Meiji Jingu, Otomohiko, was one of the most powerful priests in Shintoism.

I don't know what made me so worried.

"It doesn't matter, Lord Tomohiko, as a member of Shintoism, religious affairs naturally come first." Sakura Kurumi was very happy and thought that this was better, she could leave earlier.

Chief Priest Daitomohiko nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Shintoism had chosen a good seed this time.

This goddess not only respects her elders, but also knows how to prioritize matters. I heard that the incense she received this time is more than all the previous sons of God combined.

If you can grow well, your future will be limitless.

The most important thing is that she also holds two important positions, one is the deputy director of the Security Department, and the other is the special crisis handling team, both of which are positions with real power.

It can be said that he has the emergency action authority of most police officers in Tokyo.

In this way, Shintoism gained more support.

"Mr. Tomohiko, can I ask you a question? What happened at Meiji Jingu Shrine?" Sakura Kurumi asked curiously.

"Of course, you have the right to know anything about the shrine." Chief Priest Dai Tomohiko sighed, "For some reason, the incense offerings to Meiji Jingu Shrine have decreased recently, and the deity is very unhappy."

"They've issued divine orders, accusing us of this. However, we've counted the number of worshippers at Meiji Shrine these days, and it's almost the same as at this time of year, so why are there so few incense sticks?"

"besides......"

Chief Priest Dai Tomohiko lowered his voice, his expression cautious. "The responses from Emperor Meiji and Empress Dowager Shoken have vanished. Their incense offerings and bodies have never appeared again. Only a trace of their souls remains within the tablets."

"They had been worshipped for hundreds of years and were about to become gods, but they just disappeared so suddenly."

Daitomo Hikomiyaji showed an ugly look on his face. This was a serious dereliction of duty.

Yingkong Kurumi felt a little guilty and was dazed.

It seemed like the last time I video-chatted with that bad guy at night, he was standing at the gate of Meiji Jingu Shrine.

As the two were talking, something seemed to come after them with a loud roar, and then was slapped away by the bad guy.

He didn't even finish his words.

Could that guy who is shouting be the reincarnation of Emperor Meiji?

Needless to say, he also snatched away the incense sticks.

"Your Excellency the Goddess?" Chief Daitomo Hiko looked at the slightly dazed Sakura Kurumi and asked softly.

"Why did this happen?" Sakura Kurumi asked with a shocked expression.

"It is initially suspected that a certain religion did this," said the chief priest Dai Tomohiko in a deep voice.

"In the past few years, the Japanese government approved too many registered religions, which took away a large portion of the new believers. Moreover, recently, the number of cult believers in various places has increased, attracting many evil gods."

"Fortunately, the Goddess in Tokyo has disrupted many cases of cultists, and the evil god does not have such great power."

The chief priest, Grand Master Tomohiko, bowed slightly to express his gratitude.

"These are what I should do." Yingkong Kurumi waved her hand. "So now, do you have any doubts about which religion is responsible?"

"The one who could kill Emperor Meiji is probably the religion in Tokyo, second only to Shintoism."

"Second only to Shintoism?" Yingkong Kurumi raised her eyebrows. "The only religion in Tokyo second only to Shintoism is..."

"Senso-ji Temple." Chief Priest Tomohiko nodded and said affirmatively.

"Excuse me for being blunt, Otomohiko, but I am the Onmyoji from Sensoji Temple," said Sakura Kurumi. "Although I am not a Buddhist, I do know Sensoji Temple."

"I think, given the influence and number of followers of Buddhism, they probably wouldn't do something that is meaningless to them."

"That's right." Grand Master Tomohiko said, "But Your Excellency the Goddess may not know Senso-ji Temple well. Or rather, she may not have a deep understanding of Senso-ji Temple and have not gone deep into its interior."

The great priest Tomohiko said with a serious expression, "Your Excellency the Goddess may have discovered that the statue of the Wind and Thunder God Gate was erected in Senso-ji Temple decades ago."

"And all the rituals at Senso-ji Temple over the years have been centered around the Fukamon Gate."

"A thousand-year-old Buddhist temple now houses a Japanese-born deity. Doesn't your Highness find it a little strange?"

"What Lord Tomohiko Miyaji means is..." Sakura Kurumi frowned and also found something wrong.

Thinking of my master Takeda Taifu, if I were to say that Omori Masaru of Sensō-ji Temple wore a monk's robe every day, from his daily life to his morning and evening studies, there was still some trace of a monk.

Then, Takeda Taifu, a high-ranking official at Sensoji Temple, had almost nothing in common with any Buddhists.

He never observed any of the precepts, never did his morning and evening exercises, let alone burned incense and worshipped Buddha.

He changed his expensive watches one after another, but he had never seen anything like Buddhist beads. There were no Buddhist items even in his office or home.

"What I mean is that Senso-ji Temple has long ceased to be a purely Buddhist temple," said the chief priest Dai Tomohiko. "The current Senso-ji Temple should be called 'Senso-ji Temple, Wind and Thunder Gate'."

"I don't know why, but over the years, it seems that temples throughout Japan have gradually begun to enshrine some local gods."

"So, we can't extrapolate from ordinary Buddhist believers to them."

"No matter what, we must find the reason for the decline in incense offerings and catch the murderer who destroyed the incense offerings and the body of Emperor Meiji."

At this moment, a priest walked in, bowed and prostrated himself on the ground.

He said softly, "Your Excellency the Goddess, Your Excellency the Great Master Hiko, a large group of police officers came to the outside of the shrine, saying they were looking for the Goddess Sakura Sora Kurumi, but we stopped them from coming in."

"A police officer?" Daitomo Hiko-miya frowned, then smiled kindly at Sakura Sora Kurumi, "Goddess, am I your subordinate?"

Sakura Kurumi shook her head, indicating that she didn't know about this.

"Ask them what they want to do with Her Excellency the Goddess?"

"They said..." The priest looked up at Sakura Sora Kurumi, then looked at the chief priest Daitomohiko and whispered, "They said there's a major criminal case involving the goddess, and they need to capture her and bring her back for investigation."

"They are officers from the National Police Inspectorate," the priest added, lowering his head.

"A major criminal case? One related to me?" Yingkong Kurumi frowned and asked, "They said they wanted to arrest me? Are you sure they meant arrest?

"Yes, Your Excellency the Goddess," the priest replied.

Yingkong Kurumi smiled coldly. It seemed that her master couldn't hold back anymore and came up with some tricks to trick her.

The fact that they use the word "arrest" means they have enough evidence.

And I have been listed as a major suspect and my file has been opened.

"Goddess, has something happened? Do you need our help? Given the status of Meiji Jingu, they won't be able to break in for a while." The chief priest Daitomohiko reminded:

"You can also leave through the basement if that's necessary."

"No thanks." Yingkong Kurumi shook her head: "Maybe someone doesn't want me to stay in this position. I want to see what they want to do. Palace Master, please let them in."

"You are our goddess. Your needs are our will. Please feel free to tell us what you need us to do." Grand Master Youyouhiko bowed slightly.

"As for the law, it's only used to restrain ordinary people. If you really did something, we can also protect your safety and at most return your position to them."

"Thank you, my dear friend, this is a complete frame-up. I have done nothing." Sakura Kurumi said, "Let them in."

Chief Priest Daitomohiko nodded to the priest, who bowed to the two of them and retreated.

After a while, a burst of dense footsteps sounded.

A team of uniformed police inspectors from the Police Inspectorate entered the hall.

Ta-ta-ta-ta.

The innocent sound of stiletto heels drowned out the other footsteps.

A woman walked in first.

A stunning woman in a leather jacket.

Her facial features are exquisite and flawless, with long curved eyebrows, a high nose bridge, curved and curled eyelashes, and big, bright eyes.

A pair of red lips lightly painted with lipstick, slightly open, somewhat charming and sexy.

She had her hair tied in a bun, bangs, and was wearing a tight leather jacket.

Fitting the bust, it creates two arcs of a standard circle.

A brown holster was tucked into her snow-white thigh.

Yingkong Kurumi looked at the woman and felt that she looked familiar.

It’s not the looks that look familiar, but the way he dresses that looks familiar.

Isn't this leather jacket exactly like me?

Isn't this outfit not much different from mine?

shameless.

Dress like me.

Sakura Kurumi wrinkled her nose.

"Hello, Deputy Director Sakura Kurumi." The beautiful woman smiled slightly and took out an ID card and waved it. "I am the captain of the Supernatural Division of the Japanese Police Inspectorate Committee. My name is Kaede Kaede Ren."

"There's a serious murder case involving you, and we're arresting you for investigation. This is an arrest warrant from the General Affairs Section of the Police Inspectorate Committee."

As he said this, he took out a document with a stamp on it and handed it to Yingsora Kurumi.

Yingsora Kurumi smiled faintly, did not take it, ignored it, and continued to kneel on the tatami.

"Arrest? Watch your words, miss! Where do you think you are? Who do you want to arrest?" Otomohiko stood up with a sneer.

"This is the Meiji Shrine of Shintoism, and you actually want to arrest our goddess here."

"Your Excellency, Lord Chief Priest Tomohiko, this is a Class A supernatural criminal case. According to the supernatural management regulations, Meiji Jingu Shrine cannot shield the criminals." A male police officer behind Captain Kaede Karen stepped forward and said.

Daitomo Hikomiyaji narrowed his eyes, and with a huge force, he knocked the male police officer away and fell to the ground.

"Which Onmyoji family are you from? Is it your turn to speak here?"

Feng Hualian's pretty face turned cold: "Your Excellency, Grand Master Youshanyan, this is an arrest warrant from the Police Inspectorate Committee. We are following normal arrest procedures and have not violated any procedures. It is in compliance with the regulations on supernatural management.

The chief priest, Dai Youshanhiko, slowly sat down again.

"What about the Police Inspectorate? Even if the Prime Minister and the Cabinet ministers personally come to Meiji Jingu to arrest them, it won't work."

"If you don't believe me, you can try it. You guys go back first. When our goddess is free, she will come to visit you."

Feng Hualian took a deep breath and turned to Yingkong Kurumi and said, "Deputy Yingkong Kurumi, you are also a member of the police force. I think you should obey the police force's discipline."

"I want to hear what crime I committed first?" Yingkong Kurumi said lightly.

"Okay then, may I ask Deputy Yingkong Kurumi, where were you last night?" Feng Hualian asked.

"I was very tired after handling the case yesterday, so I went home early to rest."

"And your gun?"

"I handed my gun back to my subordinate Tsuneo Nakagawa, and he returned it to the armory." Sakura Kurumi said.

"You're lying." Feng Hualian snorted coldly: "Nakagawa Tsurugi's confession said that you didn't give the gun to him, but took it away yourself."

Sakura Kurumi's eyes turned cold. It seemed that this Nakagawa Toffee, who had followed her for many years and was promoted by her, was their man.

She smiled and asked, "And then, did my gun kill someone?"

"Witness, you're the only one on the entire police force who has that purple rhinestone-encrusted Pavna. It's the only gun with a spiral pattern. The Forensic Science Department has already issued a report, and the spiral pattern on the bullet matches."

"That would at most just prove that I lost my gun." Yingkong Kurumi shook her head: "It wouldn't be enough to say that I killed someone."

"But you can't provide an alibi, right?" Feng Hualian's small hands slapped the holster rhythmically.

The legendary woman in the police force opposite was indeed as beautiful as the rumors said.

"The most crucial point is that the bullet that killed the victim was a newly developed bullet, which only the members of your special crisis management team have." Feng Hualian said.

"What does this prove? You also said that all our team members had it. If they all had it, how can you say that I killed him?"

"But the bullet that killed the victim now carries the unique light-attributed aura of your [Shikigami: Kaguya Touma]. No one else can do this."
