Original God: I can earn experience points

Chapter 355: Chisato Hiiragi (Seeking follow-up reading)
Hearing the voice, Li Qiuzhi and others turned around.

Standing in the courtyard corridor below was a young woman with black hair wearing a kimono, and her face seemed a little nervous at this moment.

Of course I was nervous.

After all, several figures appeared inexplicably in his backyard, wearing ferocious masks, and they didn't look like good people at all.

But she is still the eldest daughter of the Hiiragi family who controls the Kanjo Bugyo.

Although Chisato Hiiragi was afraid, her mental state was still acceptable. She did not appear too panicked and did not lose face for the Hiiragi family.

"It is illegal to enter the Kandebuyo without permission."

Hiiragi Chisato forced herself to suppress her nervousness and added explanation.

She just came out to cool off during dinner because her father didn't agree with her contacting Lian Zhi, and now she was feeling a little depressed. How come she met these guys who looked like gangsters!
Why haven’t the patrolling shogunate troops come yet?

Hiiragi Chisato didn't dare to shout loudly, for fear that these criminals would suddenly attack and hurt people.

"Oh, we've been discovered. What should we do? We have to leave quickly!" Paimon, who was wearing a civet cat mask, seemed even more nervous.

"Haha, don't be nervous." Li Qiuzhi's words were a double entendre, not only for Paimeng to hear, but also for the young woman in the corridor. He thought for a moment and asked, "Miss, if I'm not mistaken, you should be the eldest daughter of the Hiiragi family."

"Yes, I am Chisato Hiiragi, you thugs, wait!"

After observing for a long time, Chisato Hiiragi finally found something unusual. One of these people had black hair and wore ordinary clothes, and the other had golden hair and wore a dress with a ribbon and long boots of the same color.

Finally, there was a white elf floating next to it.

Aside from the masks, isn't this group exactly the same as the rumored group of travelers?

I heard from the servants at home that a traveler was seen on the street today. I didn’t expect it to be true!

But why did they sneak up to the Kanjo Bugyo? And they were just wearing masks and making such a childish disguise.

Puzzled, Hiiragi Chisato looked at Li Qiuzhi and the others and asked:
"You are travelers, right? I recognize you. What is the matter with your visit so late at night? If possible, please enter the Kanjo Bugyo through the formal channels."

After roughly confirming the identity of the person, Hiiragi Chisato breathed a sigh of relief.

The rumored traveler is just, kind, and helpful, and will definitely not do anything to hurt her.

"Well, it's so easy to recognize."

Paimeng said with some regret.

Ying looked at her speechlessly. She lifted the fox mask and moved it to the left side of her head, and said a little embarrassedly:

"Excuse me, Ms. Hiiragi Chisato, but we do have a reason to visit the Kanjo Bugyo.

"As for why we acted this way, it was mainly just some idiot's stupid idea."

As she spoke, she put her hands on her hips and glanced at Li Qiuzhi. Li Qiuzhi coughed lightly and didn't care. He put away the evil ghost mask and said as he walked away:

"Ms. Chisato Hiiragi, I came here tonight to ask your father about some tax matters, but since I ran into you, I'll ask you.

"Do you know why your father changed the form of tax payment from Mora to 'Crystallized Bone Marrow'?

"This irrational behavior has caused great trouble to the 'International Chamber of Commerce'. They are about to be unable to pay taxes and will be disbanded on the spot. This should not be in the interests of the Kanjo Bugyo."

Li Qiuzhi, Ying and Paimon walked down the stone steps and came in front of Hiiragi Chisato.

"So you are actually commissioned by the 'International Chamber of Commerce' to inquire about this matter? If so, just inform them before coming in. Please don't make jokes like tonight in the future."

Hiiragi Chisato said with some dissatisfaction.

"Hey, sorry, sorry, how about this, Ms. Hiiragi Chisato, do you know anything about this?"

Paimon said with a smile, moving her raccoon mask aside.

"I have heard about what you asked, but I didn't expect it to develop to such a serious level. However, my father usually doesn't let me participate in the work of Kanjo Bugyo, so I don't know much."

Chisato Hiiragi folded her hands in front of her, shook her head and said, "Oh, there must be a reason for issuing such an unreasonable decree. It's also a bit strange why the Kanjo Bugyo needs so much 'crystallized bone marrow'. Miss Chisato, do you know where the 'crystallized bone marrow' paid as tax is transported to?"

Li Qiuzhi asked again.

"Sorry, I don't know about that, but I did remember something that happened a while ago that made me a little concerned."

Hiiragi Chisato denied it again, and then spoke as if she remembered something.

"What's going on?"

Li Qiuzhi blinked and asked.

".Well, maybe a few months ago, my father received a guest at home, a blonde woman wearing a black mask that covered half of her face."

As she spoke, Hiiragi Chisato suddenly became a little depressed. She lowered her head and continued to speak slowly:
"I have never seen my father speak so humbly to anyone, and I vaguely heard them talking about you.

“That woman said that if you show up on the outlying island, she will try to detain you and won’t let you leave easily.

"After hearing this, I was discovered by that arrogant blonde woman, and my father chased me away."

Paimon extracted the key words from Chisato Hiiragi's words, and then said angrily:
"Golden hair, black mask, very arrogant, there is no doubt that she is that 'lady'. She actually tried to trap us on the island several months ago and wouldn't let us leave. How abominable!"

"Well, because of the 'lockdown order', foreigners can only live on outlying islands, and they must apply for a pass to go anywhere. If you apply, father will definitely not agree."

Chisato Hiiragi nodded. She also felt that what her father did was a bit wrong.

In particular, the tax money was converted from Mora into "crystallized bone marrow", and it seemed that it was secretly transported to an unknown place. Although the Hiiragi family is in charge of Inazuma's financial and trade matters.

But taxes essentially belong to the country, and what my father did is no different from embezzling state-owned assets.

If the general knew about it and blamed them, the entire Hiiragi family would not be able to bear it. She said so much to the travelers in order to ask them to ask their father to stop in time.

"I see. I understand now."

Li Qiuzhi nodded, then said with a smile.

The root of the problem still lies with the Fatui. The "Crystallized Marrow" must have been used by them to make the Evil Eye.

If the problem of the Fatui is not solved, the Lord may not dare to go against their wishes and revoke the relevant laws.

In this way, even if Li Qiuzhi and others threatened him, it would be difficult to have any effect.

Only by destroying the Evil Eye Factory and capturing the "Lady" fellow, will there be no need for the "Crystallized Marrow" and the Kanjo Bugyo will no longer be coerced by the Fatui.

In this way, there will be no problem in changing the form of tax back to Mora.

We have to take action sooner or later anyway, so if we are going to fight, we should catch them off guard, so that those Fatui will not come here to bother us later!
Li Qiuzhi asked Hiiragi Chisato about the current location of his father Hiiragi Shinsuke.

After agreeing with Chisato Hiiragi not to reveal that they were here tonight.

He put on a black devil mask, took out the colorful bed sheet placed in the "fairyland", wrapped himself tightly, and completed a perfect disguise.

This time, Li Qiuzhi is really the bad guy.

He broke into Shinsuke Hiiragi's residence alone, and put a kitchen knife he picked up from the kitchen of Hiiragi's house on Shinsuke Hiiragi's neck to scare him while he was still handling affairs late at night.

And let him tell the location of the Fatui's evil eye factory!
It is easier to use force to coerce them than to negotiate with these old foxes in a proper manner.

Anyway, this Lord Bugyo has cooperated with the Fatui no matter what, so he is not a good person.

It would be troublesome if he found out my identity and bit me back.

For example, issuing a wanted order or something. If that happens, Li Qiuzhi and the others will not be able to appear openly in Inazuma.
