Tokyo Detective

Chapter 514 Don't Cause Trouble on My Territory
"Hey, Yuzuru, have you taken care of Kuroki Teppei's funeral arrangements?"

"Miss Kaho, how did you know?"

"There's a bit of telepathy between us."

"."

Is telepathy really that weird? He doesn't even have that.

Naoki Hanyu didn't hide anything; as a comrade who had dealt with the black stake incident together, he should know everything that had happened.

"That's how it is. I hope you can persuade your sister not to get involved."

A calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I understand your position, Yuzuru, but do you know what a Soul Demon is?"

"Appreciate further details."

"The Soul Demon is a collection of the resentment of abandoned infants. As long as there is abuse and abandonment of infants, it will not truly die and will even become stronger. Therefore, it must be exorcised every few hundred years to prevent its power from exceeding the capabilities of us exorcists. It was exorcised once 400 years ago, and I can sense that this Soul Demon has matured. If it is not exorcised now, it will become even more troublesome in the future."

It certainly sounds like something that should be dealt with, but Naoki Hanyu also sensed something amiss.

"You're saying that infant abuse and abandonment are rare in society now, right?"

"It has indeed decreased, but Yuzuru, are you willing to pass on such a big problem to the next generation? If its strength expands too much, perhaps the rules of operation will change."

Naoki Hanyu fell silent. It was impossible for him to say he was willing; it seemed his plan to reduce his influence would be difficult to carry out.

"So what's your plan?"

"I plan to hold a large-scale exorcism ceremony and invite capable shrine maidens, sorcerers, and mediums from all over Japan to attend. I will need the police's assistance, so I'll have to trouble you with that. It would be even better if Yuzuru could help me in person."

"I understand, I will try my best to cooperate tomorrow."

Naoki Hanyu hung up the phone and scratched his head.

"It's really troublesome."

Suddenly, his phone rang again. The caller ID showed Kazama Kohei, but Hanyu Naoki turned his head to look downstairs and saw Kuroki Teppei, who had died not long ago, staring intently at him with a cell phone in his hand.

Naoki Hanyu answered the phone, and Teppei Kuroki's voice came through.

"Don't mind your own business."

"Don't cause trouble on my turf. Go back to your hometown and don't show up in Tokyo."

"."

The call abruptly ended, and the figure downstairs vanished. Naoki Hanyu knew that things were not going to end well.

Fushiyama Yoshiho gathered a group of people to gang up on the Soul Demon. As a filthy creature accustomed to running rampant, it was naturally impossible for it to allow mere humans to cause it trouble, especially when it felt it was already very powerful.

As for Fushiyama Yoshiho and the others, it can't be said that they brought him trouble. After all, their considerations were for the good of society. Those people were willing to risk losing their lives for the sake of society, so what right did he have to criticize them?

However, since the two sides were fighting on their own turf, even he, as the local strongman, had no choice but to get involved.

Speaking of the helpers that Fushiyama Yoshiho found, strictly speaking, they are the local religious forces in Japan, and the most influential core forces at that. If he can build good relations with these religious forces, it shouldn't be bad, after all, he recently gained access to the power of religious forces.

So he should take action.
.
Meanwhile, in the house where Kuroki Teppei's wife and daughter were, Kuroki Rena hung up her phone and revealed a smile that was hard to tell whether it was relief or pain.

"he died."

Six-year-old Chisa Kuroki hugged her mother and asked.

"Who died?"

"Your father."

"Isn't Father here?"

"???"

Kuroki Rena was startled and looked up to see her recently deceased husband staring at her from the corner, his face deathly pale.

"Rena, Chisa, I've come to find you."

The voice eventually turned into a deep female voice.

"what"

Rena Kuroki picked up her daughter and hid in the nearest toilet, but what her daughter said next sent chills down her spine.

"Mom, they've come to find me."

"them?"

The toilet door shook violently, and many children's arms reached in through the gaps.

"We've come to visit you."
.
When Fushiyama Kana returned, Kuroki Reina was lying on the ground covered in blood, while the child who had attracted the Po-Xu demon had disappeared.

"Madam Kuroki".

Kana Fushiyama tried to give the woman first aid, but the next second the woman, who should have died, reached out and grabbed her foot, her disheveled face contorted in a grotesque expression.

"Why did you come? Wouldn't it be better to let the child go? Why do you have to meddle?"

A chill ran through Kana Fushiyama's heart, and then she saw countless ghosts of children coming toward her, the oldest being 12 years old and the youngest being babies crawling on the ground.

"Big sister, let's play!"

As the child's hand touched Fushiyama Kana's body, blood gushed out as if being torn apart, like an innocent child ghost toying with a small animal, trying to kill the woman.

Just then, a voice entered the child ghost's ears.

"Don't we have to go to school today?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a shotgun bullet pierced the spirit of the child who was trying to crush the woman's eyes.

The newcomer was Naoki Hanyu, carrying his long-unused treasure, the famous spear Abe no Kiri.

"Come play with the big brother."

Before the evil spirits could answer, the blade of the demon sword had already sliced ​​through all the spirits. The crescent moon flashed, and even the wall was left with a deep cut.

Just as Naoki Hanyu was about to chop up the several still-crying babies, Kana Fushiyama suddenly grabbed his foot and pleaded.

“Save Chisa”.

"You should worry about yourself first." Naoki Yuzuru strongly suspected that the child named Chisa was a succubus, otherwise how could she have bewitched Kana Fushiyama to the point of near death while she was still begging him to save her?

The room fell silent quickly, and a figure suddenly appeared behind the kitchen glass door, accompanied by a hoarse voice.

"Mind your own business, I'll come after you."

The next second, the bullet shattered the glass as if it had hit the other person, because a scream was heard, but the dark figure also disappeared.

As Naoki Hanyu watched the infant's figure gradually disappear under the blade of the demon sword, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"I told you not to cause trouble on my turf."

Then, the Soul-Devouring Hand grabbed Fushiyama Kana's head and sucked out her resentment, causing her to spit out several caterpillars.

Naoki Hanyu looked at the caterpillar with disgust and took a few steps back, then took out his phone and dialed Yoshiho Fushiyama again.

"Your sister was almost killed by the Soul Demon, but I saved her."

"I owe you a favor."

"Tell me about tomorrow's plans, and I'll see if there's anything I can do to help. Since we've already offended that damned thing, we have to go all out."

"Thank you for your help."

Naoki Hanyu handed the scene over to his subordinates who had arrived; he had other things to do.

As night fell, a man was writhing in pain at home, with several bloody wounds on his back. This man was Yonekura Takumi, Kuroki Reina's lover, Kuroki Teppei's friend, and the culprit who placed the demon-summoning talisman, causing the Kuroki family to be destroyed.

Why did Yonekura Takumi do this? It was because he was jealous of Kuroki Teppei, who was clearly a villain, yet he had a good job and a beautiful wife. So he secretly sabotaged everything.

"Cough cough cough, it's all over."

"Yeah, it's all over. You made me work overtime, that's the worst thing you could do."

Takumi Yonekura looked up and saw a strange masked man appear. As the man approached, the pain in his body seemed to lessen.

"You are."

"boom."

A gunshot ended the other person's life.

Naoki Hanyu shook his head as he looked at the corpse. The next second, he drew the demon sword from his waist and threw it into the wall. At the same time, a familiar scream came and then disappeared.

"You dare to show up right under my nose? You're really brave."

Izumo Taisha, located in Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture, is a shrine dedicated to Ōkuninushi (the god of marriage) and has a long history.

A sweet-looking girl hurriedly packed her things. Her long, straight black hair reached her hips. She was tall and slender yet curvy, with a pair of long, energetic legs.

Suddenly, his mother's voice came from downstairs.

"Aren't you ready yet? If you don't come down for breakfast soon, you'll miss your flight."

"coming."

The girl's name is Yakumo Chisato. She is the daughter of the chief priest of Izumo Taisha Shrine and also a priestess of the shrine. In the future, she may even resign from her position as priestess and take over her father's position as chief priest.

Her family has been in charge of Izumo Taisha for over a thousand years. In ancient times, it would have been hopeless for a girl, but nowadays some small and medium-sized shrines already have women serving as chief priests or shrine masters, so she may well be able to serve as chief priest of a large shrine in the future.

When Yakumo Chisato arrived at the dining table, her father, who was the priest, was reading the newspaper, while her mother anxiously handed her daughter her favorite breakfast.

Shizuko Yakumo eventually managed to persuade him.

"Qianzou, why don't we not go? There are already so many highly skilled people going, we won't miss you."

Chisato Yakumo was indeed a little tempted by this, but the next second her father, Takeshi Yakumo, interrupted her.

"Don't talk nonsense. If we can't cleanse this land of its filth, what is the point of our existence?"

"You make it sound so easy. It's not like you're the one going. Chizuru is only 17 years old and you're making her face those terrifying beings. If that's the case, it would be better if she didn't have that damn talent and just lived a peaceful life as an ordinary girl."

Yakumo Takeshi retorted angrily.

"Who says I'm not going? I'll go with them."

"What are you going there for? You have no talent. Are you just going to your death?"

Seeing her parents arguing, Yakumo Chisato slammed her hand on the table, and only smiled when her parents looked over.

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, I'll be fine. Just like Dad said, this is our shrine's duty. Dad, don't even think about going with you. You don't even have the talent to see ghosts. Going there would just be suicide. Don't make me worry."

"."

The plane flew from Izumo to Tokyo, and Yakumo Chisato set foot on Tokyo soil for the first time.

"Tokyo, here I come! Oh no, I just drank too much water."

As Chisato Yakumo was using the toilet, the bathroom door suddenly shook violently, as if someone outside was frantically trying to open it.

"Who's there? There's someone inside."

"I'm looking for you."

The eerie sound sent chills down Chisato's spine. Was that thing really that fierce? She had only just arrived in Tokyo and it had already come after her.

Am I doomed this time?

Chisato Yakumo tried to take out the ceremonial artifact with a thousand-year history from the backpack hanging on the doorknob, but the door was suddenly opened with a loud bang, and a familiar figure came into view.

That's right, it was the first ghost I ever exorcised.

Impossible, it has already been exorcised.

This scene startled Chisato Yakumo, who couldn't hold back any longer, and the sound of water splashed out.

The next second, a scene appeared that made Yakumo Chisato's expression change drastically. The ghost's head fell off and turned to ashes, revealing the figure of a man standing behind the others.

The two looked at each other, only the sound of water remained.

The person who arrived was none other than Naoki Hanyu. As his gaze moved downwards, the girl's scream finally rang out.

"what"
