Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful scumbag.

"So I speculate that she was originally a mountain god in the area, but for some unknown reason she became what she is now."

"That's why she can fully utilize the local spiritual energy, and her fighting style is very disciplined, clearly honed over hundreds of years..."

Hideyuki Hoshino pursed his lips.

Good guy.

Before setting off, I thought I would have a smooth journey, but now look what happened! I've run into two gods at once – a female fox and a female spider!

"But overall, I'm still stronger. Don't be fooled by my injury; she was actually quite startled by me, and she's definitely not feeling well right now!"

Amamiya Yukiho laughed, "But with this spider web overhead, I really can't take her down..."

Hoshino Hideyuki frowned and asked, "Then do you know how to break the spider web?"

"I don't know~"

"Hey?"

Hoshino Hideyuki's eyes widened: "According to your habits, young lady, shouldn't you have already thought of Plan A, B, C and the final backup plan by now!"

Amamiya Yukiho covered her mouth and chuckled: "Huh? Doesn't Mr. Smiling Fox dislike my assertive nature?"

"Of course I don't like being chased by you, but I really like being your teammate! Don't be like other villains who become weak after being redeemed!"

"Oh dear, have I been completely innocent in Mr. Smiling Fox's eyes? I'm so happy~"

no……

Forget it, you young lady can't understand human language.

Hoshino Hideyuki sighed deeply, knowing that he still couldn't slack off this time.

At that moment, as he stared at the spider drawn by Yukiho Amamiya, he suddenly remembered something.

"You spider, you have ten legs, don't you?"

"Yes, that's right~"

“I saw something similar at Kenichi Kitagawa’s place…”

at the same time.

Kenichi Kitagawa and his manager, Shizuka Hanazawa, secretly arrived at the entrance of the only general hospital in Musashi Village, which was once the only one in the village but has now been abandoned, without the knowledge of the rest of the crew.

Looking at the eerie hospital overgrown with weeds and ivy, with all the windows broken, Kenichi Kitagawa stopped and asked Shizuka Hanazawa, who was leading the way, "Are we sure we're going to meet the Holy Mother here?"

"Yes, Kenichi."

Shizuka Hanazawa turned her head and affectionately took Kenichi Kitagawa's right hand in both, saying, "Don't be fooled by appearances. The Holy Mother's palace is hidden underground; it's a sacred place you can't even imagine~"

"Yeah, I believe you."

Kenichi Kitagawa was used to his female assistant's flirtatious behavior and simply responded impatiently.

at this time.

With a rustling sound, the hospital doors opened, and village chief Satoshi Sasaki came out with two attendants.

He stood in front of Kenichi Kitagawa, bowed slightly, and said:

"I'm very sorry, Your Highness, the plans have changed, and the blessing ceremony must be postponed..."

"Postponed? What do you mean?" Hanazawa Shizuka raised an eyebrow. "Didn't we prepare for a long time and set it for today?"

"Well... Hanazawa, you'll understand when you come down with me later..."

After explaining somewhat unhappily, Satoshi Satoshi turned to Kenichi Kitagawa and said respectfully, "Your Highness, don't worry, it's nothing serious. We just want to pursue a more perfect opportunity."

"Okay, I've already waited for years, so I don't mind waiting a few more days..."

Kenichi Kitagawa shrugged, then changed the subject, saying, "But could you give me some more of that blue holy water that makes people obey?"

“Recently, a few people in the crew have been going against me, which is very annoying. I want to teach them a lesson.”

Satoshi Sasaki pondered for a moment and then shook his head.

"The ceremony is approaching, Your Highness, please bear with it."

"Tsk, it's true."

Kenichi Kitagawa shook his hand and turned to leave.

Shizuka Hanazawa immediately ran over, whispered sweet nothings to him for a while, then returned alone and said to Satoshi Sasaki in a deep voice, "What exactly happened? That kid's temper has been getting worse lately. If you keep dragging this on..."

"Come with me."

Satoshi Satoshi didn't say much. He had his two attendants wait outside, and led Shizuka Hanazawa into the hospital, heading straight for the elevator on the first floor.

A ding-dong sound.

The elevator, which shouldn't have been powered, suddenly started and sent the two people underground.

About ten seconds later, the elevator stopped, and the two arrived in an underground cave that seemed to stretch to the horizon.

A shrine stands facing you.

At first glance, the shrine seems to have everything one would expect: a tall, vermilion torii gate and a main hall with layered blue tiles, giving it a very sacred and majestic appearance.

But if you look closely...

You'll find that the surface of every piece of wood here is covered with twisted patterns of yellow, black, and white, exuding an extreme sense of malevolence. Staring at it for a while is enough to make ordinary people dizzy, nauseous, and want to vomit.

However, Satoshi Sasaki and Shizuka Hanazawa entered the shrine with great respect.

As they walked, their expressions changed.

After a few steps, it transformed from a human face into a spider's head, with ferocious mouthparts and eight clustered eyes, looking quite terrifying, like a monster that would appear in a B-movie.

"My lord!" "We must see Lord Li!"

Two spider heads bowed before a spherical statue inside the shrine.

Then, the statue slowly trembled, unfolded, and finally transformed into a giant ten-legged spider.

However, the spider was in poor condition at the moment. Two of its legs were obviously broken, and the human face on its abdomen was bruised and swollen, with green bloodshot eyes.

"Lord Sumi, are you injured?"

Hanazawa Shizuka finally realized what had happened, her chin nearly hitting her foot: "How is this possible? Who could it be...?"

"An alien deity has infiltrated the film crew."

The giant spider said slowly in a hoarse female voice, "She injured me."

"How could such an outrageous thing happen..."

As Hanazawa Shizuka spoke, she kowtowed heavily and said, "Please tell me who she is, my lord, and I will go to help you!"

"Stop professing your loyalty here."

Satoshi Satoshi rolled his eyes at Shizuka Hanazawa and said dismissively, "Someone who can injure an adult is not someone you can handle."

"You!" Shizuka Hanazawa immediately glared back at Satoshi Sasaki.

The giant spider made no reaction to the bickering among its subordinates, neither praising nor stopping them, but simply watched quietly.

Next, Satoshi Satoshi ignored Shizuka Hanazawa's gaze and turned to kowtow to the giant spider, saying:

"My lord, I have investigated the identity of that deity. She is most likely Yukiho Amamiya, who almost got lost on the mountain yesterday."

"Judging from her current attitude towards us, she probably doesn't know that Hanazawa and I are your subordinates, sir."

The large spider rubbed its mouthparts together, making a clicking sound.

"very good."

"If we were to face her head-on, even if I had the advantage, it would still come at a great cost if I wanted to take her down."

"In that case, why don't you take advantage of your status and test her out?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the shrine was suddenly illuminated with yellow and black lights.

After the light disappeared, a small glass bottle appeared out of thin air on the floor, containing a slightly viscous, transparent liquid.

The giant spider slowly issued its commands:

"This venom is colorless and odorless, making it difficult to detect. It has no effect on ordinary people, but it can weaken and exhaust those with spiritual power, and even cause them to faint."

"You guys figure out a way to put it into the crew's food."

"Let's see how she reacts."

"If she doesn't realize she's been poisoned, then you guys get rid of the rest of the crew, and I'll just eliminate her!"

"Don't let Kitagawa know about this. Don't delay the ceremony. If anything unexpected happens, you must move him away first..."

Satoshi Satoshi immediately reached out and grabbed the bottle before Shizuka Hanazawa could, then kowtowed again, saying, "Yes, sir."

"I will do everything in my power to help you!"

Shizuka Hanazawa pouted.

Sasaki, you old balding guy, in the end you still followed my example, didn't you?

Pay me the copyright fees!

The words are divided into two parts.

At this moment, in a hot spring inn.

"So cute~"

Amamiya Yukiho smiled and poked the round ladybug on the ground with her fair and pink fingertips.

"Rua, don't touch me!"

Then the ladybug made an embarrassing sound.

That's right, this is Hideyuki Hoshino transformed.

After sharing the information, Hideyuki Hoshino felt that Kenichi Kitagawa's side should be a breakthrough point.

So he decided to use his traditional skill: to disguise himself as a fly to gather intelligence.
