In just a few seconds, the expression on Yaodaoji's face changed again and again.
Aragaki Yu:......
Five minutes later, feeling utterly hopeless, Aragaki Yu made an excuse that he was feeling unwell and told Officer Sato, who was waiting in his car outside, that he didn't need to take him to school. He then lay down on his bed, utterly despondent.
During this time, Officer Sato asked Aragaki Yu a few questions with concern, and Aragaki Yu could only offer a few casual explanations.
Before leaving, Officer Sato glanced at Aragaki Yu a few times with some skepticism. She felt that Aragaki Yu's reason for saying that he was frightened by the robbers was not very convincing. Could this guy just not want to go to school?
Judging from his behavior in the car earlier, he didn't seem scared at all.
However, after careful consideration, Officer Sato decided to let Aragaki Yu go and offered to explain the situation to the school and ask for leave on his behalf.
After all, who hasn't skipped class and not wanted to go to school before?
……
After an unknown amount of time, amidst the pushing and shoving of the Demon Blade Princess and the Snow Woman, the Little Tengu led the way into Aragaki Yu's room.
Seeing Aragaki Yu lying on the bed pretending to sleep, the three little ones whispered to each other for a while before quietly climbing into bed.
"Onmyoji?" The first one to rush to Aragaki Yu's ear was the Yuki-onna, who looked very cautious.
"Hmm?" Aragaki Yu replied in a nonchalant tone.
Seeing that Aragaki Yu didn't seem to want to pay attention to them, the three little shikigami were extremely nervous, fearing that Aragaki Yu would get angry.
The snow woman floated to Aragaki Yu's shoulder with a fawning expression, reached out her small hands to massage his shoulder, and said softly, "Onmyoji, you must be tired! Let me massage your shoulders!"
"Not tired."
Yaodao-hime smiled and moved closer to Aragaki Yu: "Master! You must be thirsty. I'll get you something to drink. Would you like cola or barley tea?"
"Not thirsty."
"Then let me get you an ice cream, Onmyoji! It's a flavor I've been saving for a long time!" Yuki-onna said with a hint of heartache.
"Don't eat."
(Sato Miwako: Ice cream!?)
Seeing the pleading looks from Yuki-onna and Yoto-hime, the little tengu had no choice but to go to Aragaki Yu's side. He racked his brains trying to think of what he could do to help the Onmyoji, and finally, urged by Yuki-onna and Yoto-hime, he hurriedly asked, "Master! Do you want to play a game? We can...?!"
Yuki-onna and Yoto-hime: ? ? ?
Aragaki Yu:? ? ?
The Snow Woman and the Demon Blade Princess looked at the Tengu, who had brought up such a sensitive topic, with bewildered expressions. Even Aragaki Yu, who was pretending to be asleep, couldn't help but look at him with surprise.
Under the watchful eyes of the others, the little tengu realized its mistake and its voice gradually softened. Finally, it couldn't help but bury its face in its wings.
"Pfft!"
Seeing the little tengu's shy appearance, Aragaki Yuu, who had been pretending to be angry, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Seeing Aragaki Yu lying on the bed with a smile on his face, Yuki-onna and Yoto-hime couldn't help but pounce on his head, excitedly pressing their cheeks against his and saying, "Onmyoji (Master)! You're not angry anymore!?"
"Of course I'm angry!" Aragaki Yu deliberately put on a stern face.
In his heart, he naturally doted on these little ones, and he wasn't angry with Yuki-onna and the others for what had just happened.
It's just playing video games!
It's no big deal.
In my past life, I was much more ruthless than they were.
They were so engrossed in playing the game that they forgot about themselves.
But he even ruined his own life.
Yuuka Aragaki has not forgotten how she was transported to this world.
Ha, the Super Demon King!
My lifelong enemy!
However, Shinju felt that if he didn't teach these kids a lesson, they might start to disregard him.
To prevent this from happening again, Aragaki Yuu is going to give them a good talking to.
All that worrying about them not being able to find me was for nothing...
These guys went too far; they wasted our time.
Chapter 101 Come to life
In the dead of night, just as Aragaki Yu was about to go to bed, his cell phone suddenly rang.
Looking at the unfamiliar number on the caller ID, Aragaki Yu hesitated for a moment before answering the phone: "Hello? I don't buy insurance!"
"..."
The person on the other end of the phone was about to say something, but upon hearing Aragaki Yu's words, they fell into a deep silence.
"Huh?! Aren't you selling insurance? Then I don't need a loan!"
"..."
The person on the other end of the phone swallowed the words that were about to come out for the second time.
"Is that not it? Then I..."
The person on the other end of the phone felt a rush of blood to their head, and finally, before Aragaki Yu could say anything more, he impatiently interrupted Aragaki Yu's speculation: "It's me!"
Lying on the bed, Aragaki Yu suddenly paused. That voice sounded like Gin.
……
Meanwhile, inside a Porsche 365A weaving through a dark alley.
Vodka glanced furtively at Gin, who had just finished making the call and suddenly stubbed out his cigarette, before fearfully averting his gaze before Gin's icy stare fell upon him.
He didn't know what the guy on the other end of the phone said that provoked Gin. He had been following Gin for so long, and he hadn't seen his older brother so vulnerable in a long time.
"Oh, it's Gin, the owner! I'm so sorry, I didn't know this was your phone!" Apologetic voice came from the other end of the line.
"Hmm." Gin frowned slightly when he heard Aragaki Yu address him. After lighting another cigarette to calm himself down, he said quietly, "There's no one around, right? You can just call me boss from now on. My name isn't appropriate for some places."
"It's so late at night, there's no one next to me, maybe just a ghost!" Aragaki Yu glanced at the snow woman beside him, who was curiously listening to his phone call, and explained seriously, "Besides, I'm not stupid. You don't look like a good person, you must have a lot of enemies outside. I can't mention you, boss, in front of others, it's not safe..."
"..."
Vodka noticed with alarm that the cigarette Gin had just lit had gone out.
Yuuya Aragaki noticed the sudden silence on the other end of the phone. Fearing that Gin might storm over in a fit of anger, he proactively inquired about Gin's purpose in calling: "Oh, by the way, what did the boss want to see me about?"
He knew that Gin was the kind of person who wouldn't call unless he needed something; he definitely wouldn't just make a phone call to say hello.
Besides, it's late at night now.
Gin, who had almost forgotten his business, lit his third cigarette and said casually, "I need you to do something for me tomorrow."
"Work?" Aragaki Yu seemed a little surprised. He only just remembered that Gin hadn't contacted him for a long time since he first found him. He had almost forgotten that he was someone who had been "recruited" by the organization.
Although Yuu Aragaki didn't understand why Gin hadn't explained anything about the organization to him.
Does it mean you still don't trust yourself?
However, since Gin did this, Yuya Aragaki was naturally happy to have some peace and quiet.
After all, getting too involved in things within an organization isn't necessarily a good thing.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Shikishima, the ghost ship, gold—I need you to investigate some information."
As Gin uttered the keywords, Yuu Aragaki was also typing away on his phone, finding related news online.
"A ghost ship!" Only the Snow Woman, who had been eavesdropping all along, shivered and retreated back into the Yin-Yang Domain.
Several years ago, one night, the Dragon God, loaded with gold worth one billion yuan, sent out a distress signal in the sea. However, when the rescue team arrived at the area where the distress signal was sent, they found that the Dragon God had disappeared. All they found on the sea was the body of the captain of the Dragon God. Later, after a large-scale salvage operation, they still could not find any trace of the ship's wreckage.
Just a few days ago, after a stormy night, the residents of Shikishima discovered the Ryujin, which had mysteriously disappeared seven years ago, in the nearby waters. However, all the gold inside had vanished.
The local residents, seeing the strangely appearing ship, all believed it to be a ghost ship, haunted by naval ghosts.
Gin naturally scoffed at the idea of ghosts haunting the ship, but when he heard that the ship's gold, worth one billion yen, was still missing, he couldn't help but become a little interested in the matter.
After all, maintaining the operation of a large organization requires a lot of financial and material resources. Gin has been working so hard on missions lately, not just to find all sorts of traitors in the organization, but also to collect funds for the organization.
Gin, who doesn't have any reliable subordinates, originally planned to personally go to Shikishima to investigate intelligence, but unexpectedly, some minor issues arose with his mission, and he couldn't get away for the time being.
Moreover, Gin doesn't have much confidence in finding this gold, which is worth one billion yuan.
Just as he was about to give up, looking at the words "ghost ship," he suddenly remembered Aragaki Yu, whom he had recently recruited. Wasn't that guy an "Onmyoji"? He was somewhat related to the ghost ship thing.
We can't just let that guy do nothing and collect his stipend from the organization every day.
Gin felt somewhat resentful towards his subordinate who was always on vacation and resting, while he was constantly worrying about and working hard for the organization.
[Heh, perfect, I can test this guy's abilities!] It was with this thought in mind that Gin dialed Aragaki Yu's number just now.
"No problem, boss."
After checking the relevant news online, Yuu Aragaki accepted Gin's task without much hesitation.
