My daily life of exorcising demons and falling in love with a witch.

"Oh my, you two look so loving!" he said with a chuckle. "By the way, Miss Yoda seems to be from a wealthy family, right?"

"Yes," Yoshiyuki said, "she is the daughter of the eldest son of the Yoda family."

"I see. I've heard that marriages in such large families are arranged very early, often in one's teens." The Rice Bag Demon looked at Yoshiyuki, then at Erina, and asked in a low voice with a chuckle, "Could it be that the two of you are already engaged?"

"Not yet!" Erina blurted out, "We don't need that kind of thing."

Yi Xing didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.

But after a moment of surprise, he blushed and quickly clarified.

"No, no, no, Miss! It's not that we haven't met, it's that it's impossible! We're just master and servant! Please don't misunderstand!"

"Hmph... That's right! Our master-servant relationship transcends friendship and love!" Erina said smugly, kneading the dough.

"Oh dear, really?" the rice sack demon sounded quite disappointed. "But the two of you are truly a perfect match!"

"Of course," Erina snorted, leaning proudly against Yoshiyuki. "Yoshiyuki has been serving me since I was little, how could we not be a good match!"

Does the young lady even understand the meaning of "well-matched"?!

Yi Xing felt his mind was in complete chaos for a moment.

But when he saw Erina's mischievous look and the satisfied smirk on her lips, he understood what was going on.

The young lady was joking with him again.

Damn it!

Yi Xing began to complain inwardly.

Do you really enjoy seeing me panic?!

Although he knew Erina was just joking, Yoshiyuki couldn't help but feel a strong urge to marry the young lady whenever he actually imagined it.

But he only thought about it.

He still likes the relationship between the two of them quite a bit.

Because it takes half an hour, it's impossible for everyone to wait in the warehouse indefinitely.

Rice Bag Demon went back to mind the shop, while Yi Xing and the two policemen were invited to sit down at a Chinese restaurant owned by the same person.

During this time, the two police officers also introduced themselves.

The older one was named Sanada Seira. He was a police officer.

The younger one is named Hisano Ritsu.

During the conversation, it was learned that both of them belonged to the First Investigation Division of the Criminal Investigation Department at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters. This division specializes in handling serious cases such as violence and homicide.

In addition, the Metropolitan Police Department has a Special Investigation Division, four of which specialize in handling cases related to demons, strange phenomena, and the like. Most of its members are spiritual beings.

However, because their numbers are too small and they operate behind the scenes, they usually do not investigate cases independently and need to work with other departments.

They were also involved in this series of murders targeting teenage girls.

Kuno and Sanada said that the reason why Ms. Yoda's plan was approved so quickly was because the Special Investigation Division had also identified the murderer as Shuten-dōji.

They just haven't been able to find a way to capture him.

Now that they've heard the Witch of the Underworld can help, they're naturally very willing. After finding Shuten-dōji's location, the Special Investigation Division will also send people to help eliminate him.

"By the way," Erina took a sip of iced water and asked curiously, "Am I that famous in Tokyo? There's almost no information about the Yomi Shrine Maiden online, is there?"

"I think I've heard from the cyber police that they specifically control information related to this topic online. The less attention you get, the safer you are," Officer Sanada explained gently. "So many people in Tokyo have only heard of it, but don't really know much about it. Of course, the police are definitely an exception."

At this point, Officer Kuno awkwardly took over from his senior, stammered for a moment, and apologized for his previous remarks.

He said that he was anxious because after becoming a detective, he found that there were too many unsolved murder cases piled up at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

However, since mediums are extremely rare, he sometimes loses control of his emotions when he encounters someone with medium abilities, and he hopes she will forgive him.

"Don't worry! I didn't take it to heart at all."

Erina said this, expressing her complete understanding and a touch of emotion.

The same applies to righteous deeds.

After all, this shows that this young criminal police officer has a strong sense of justice and responsibility.

They actually care so much about those long-standing unsolved cases.

Both Officer Sanada and Officer Kuno were very curious about why the Yomi Shrine Maiden had come to Tokyo.

According to what they had heard before, Erina was being protected very well by the Yoda family, and was not even allowed to leave the village.

When asked about this, Yoshiyuki was afraid that Erina might accidentally reveal that Hiro was the mole, so he immediately spoke up first, saying that it was because the young lady really wanted to come to Tokyo to study, and the head of the family finally agreed.

"Grandpa Yoda really dotes on his granddaughter; he actually relented." Officer Sanada pondered for a moment, then suddenly said something that intrigued Yoshiyuki: "I thought he was a rigid and stubborn old man."

"Judging from what Officer Sanada said, it seems you've had dealings with Grandpa Erina before?" Yoshiyuki couldn't help but ask.

"Yes," Sanada replied affirmatively, frowning slightly. "In a case I handled earlier this year, the victim was dismembered, and the body parts were hidden overnight in various parts of Japan. I don't know what the purpose was. One of the body parts was found in Yoda Village... You two should remember this, right?"

"Yes, but we were at school that day, and when we got home, we heard that the police had finished collecting evidence and left the village. Otherwise, we would have met much earlier," Yixing replied.

He vaguely remembered this case. It even made the newspapers at the time.

However, because the murderer stopped committing crimes afterward and the case remained unsolved, the level of attention gradually declined, and now only a small group of mystery enthusiasts online are still discussing it enthusiastically.

"Yes. But actually, we were forced to leave." Sanada's tone was still quite helpless when he mentioned this: "We were supposed to conduct a more thorough search in Yoda Village, but Grandpa Yoda firmly disagreed with our staying any longer, and kicked us out immediately after the evidence collection was finished. It was a very unpleasant situation."

"However, the murderer is definitely not from Yota Village, right?" Yoshiyuki asked. "The head of the family is quite reasonable. If you have evidence that the murderer is in the village, he will not only not stop you, but will also cooperate fully."

"That's true. But for some reason, Mr. Yoda seems to really dislike the police." Officer Kuno chimed in, "A village as big as Yoda should theoretically have at least one resident police officer. But the Yoda family strongly objected, so in the end, no one was appointed... Miss Yoda, does your grandfather have some kind of grudge against us?"
