A short while later, there was a knock on the door.
Shirakawa glanced at Tamako, who shook her head vigorously and then darted into the wardrobe.
Shirakawa Nozomi gritted his teeth, closed the book, and got up to open the door.
Shirakawa Kurumi stood outside the door. After the door opened, she walked in with her hands behind her back, glanced at the half-eaten tomato on the table, and casually said, "Why are you only eating this again? It's not like I didn't leave you any food."
Shirakawa Nozomi said calmly, "Is there something you need?"
Kurumi Shirakawa rolled her eyes and took out the bag in her hand: "These are souvenirs I brought back from Yamanashi... Also, do me a favor."
Shirakawa Nozomi sneered.
"You can have 20,000 yuan of the reward this time."
"Please give your orders!" Shirakawa Nozomi said in a deep voice.
"That attitude is acceptable!" Shirakawa Kurumi was satisfied and quickly said, "You're in the same class as Kotegawa, so help me find out his birthday, interests, what his favorite food is, and what he hates to eat..."
"Is that competitive eater picky about food?" Shirakawa asked subconsciously, then frowned and said, "Can't you just ask him yourself? No, why are you asking him?"
Shirakawa Kurumi glanced at him sideways: "Stop talking nonsense, just do what I tell you to do!"
“I’m not familiar with him, so he definitely won’t tell me if I ask him rashly.” Shirakawa Nozomi snorted. “That’s why I have to pay more… another ten thousand!”
"I'll give you another 20,000 if you can do it!" Shirakawa Kurumi held up two fingers and readily agreed.
Shirakawa Nozomi paused, looking at her suspiciously: "Why are you so quick to agree? Have you taken a liking to him?"
"Well, after living for sixteen years, I've finally met someone who makes my heart flutter, so I'll get to know them a little better first."
"Feeling attracted?"
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"How long have you two known each other?" Shirakawa Nozomi frowned. He had always thought that Kotekawa Kamimi was the one actively pursuing him, but now it seemed that wasn't the case.
"How long will it take? Haven't you ever heard of love at first sight?" Shirakawa Kurumi retorted.
"Love at first sight?" Shirakawa Nozomi scoffed, "That's clearly lust!"
"What did you say?" The beautiful girl's tone turned cold.
"I said give me a week!" Shirakawa said in a calm voice, "Also, please pay 20,000 as a deposit first!"
Chapter Fifty: Night Rain (Part Three)
At 8 p.m., the rain suddenly intensified, affecting the coffee shop, which had to close early.
Kotegawa Kami, holding an umbrella, walked towards the North Ward together with Mikazuki Haruka, who was also holding an umbrella.
The baby-faced young woman pressed down on the hem of her skirt with one hand and asked, "With such heavy rain tonight, are we still going to patrol the streets?"
Kami Kotekawa shook his head: "I probably won't be needed tonight."
With such heavy rain, special personnel will drive out to patrol the streets.
Mikazuki Seisakusho tilted her head and glanced at him: "Are you still going to take me home?"
"You've just eaten, so walking around a bit will help digestion," Furutekawa Kami quickly said. "Don't take it to heart, it's nothing serious, really!"
She pursed her lips and said softly, "Actually, even if you say no, I'll still have to shamelessly ask you tonight."
In this kind of weather, it would be a lie to say she wouldn't be scared to walk back alone.
Kami Kotekawa breathed a sigh of relief and said cheerfully, "Leave it to me, I'll make sure you get home safely."
"Thank you so much for your help."
"No, no, we're friends, there's no need to be so polite between friends."
"Does my friend Kotegawa consider me a friend?"
"Of course!"
"Oh?" Her tone was ambiguous, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or disappointed.
"Hmm, is there a problem?"
"No, I just suddenly thought of something trivial."
"Um"
They walked side by side and soon crossed the bridge between the Kyoto and Kita districts, heading further north.
Kotegawa Kami looked around.
He was looking for the tall, thin man he usually saw every day, but he couldn't find him.
As they approached Mikazuki Haruka's house, he asked, "Did you see that tall, thin man when you went out today?"
"No, that gentleman probably doesn't live in the North District, right?"
"That's good." Kotekawa nodded slightly, but still said with some concern, "To be honest, I feel like something's off about him. If you see him in the future, be sure to stay away from him. When you're home alone, make sure to lock the doors and windows and don't open them for anyone."
Mikazuki Seisakusho tilted her head, her large eyes shining brightly. She could tell that Kotegawa Kami genuinely cared about her, without any ulterior motives.
"Don't worry, I've been living alone for a long time, so I'm very careful about safety."
"Alone," Kotekawa Kami thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Aren't you going home for the holidays either?"
"It seems that Glasses-kun really hasn't told you anything about me."
"He has a good tongue, and I admire that about him!" Kotekawa Kami quickly said a few good words for Honba Sorata.
"Yeah, Glasses-kun is pretty good in that respect." She looked down, found her house key, and waved to him as she walked forward. "Thanks, Kotegawa! Please be careful on your way home!"
"Okay, go upstairs. I'll leave after you go in."
Mikazuki Haruka ran upstairs, and when she reached the door, she turned around and waved her little hand again.
After she went inside and locked the door, Kotekawa Kami withdrew his gaze, turned around and left, lowering his umbrella as he retraced his steps.
Lightning flashed across the sky from time to time, accompanied by bursts of thunder. The rain had lessened considerably, but it seemed to be just a break.
There wasn't a single person in sight on the street.
Kotegawa Kami quickened his pace, wanting to get home before the next wave of rain.
He had been rushing along the way, and just as he was about to leave the North District, he suddenly stopped and turned around.
I suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Just a dozen meters behind him, at a T-junction he had just passed, a figure in a trench coat stood with his head down and his back to him.
Kotekawa Kami was surprised, then closed the umbrella and held it in his hand.
That tall, thin guy looks so familiar.
Kami Kotekawa wondered, "Was this someone waiting for me here specifically? But why is their back to me?"
At this moment, thick black fog suddenly rose up again, and mournful, echoing sounds, along with heavy breathing, came from all directions.
The young man looked around and was immediately surprised.
That's really strange. Where did these little sprites come from? And there's more than one?
The tall, thin figure standing at the intersection moved. He slowly turned around, revealing a twisted and crazed young face.
He raised his hand, pointed at Kamiko Kotegawa, and shouted in a shrill voice, like fingernails scratching a blackboard, "Kill him! Kill him right now!"
The heavy breathing and the mournful, echoing sound intensified instantly.
Two figures, one black and one white, emerged from the black mist and surrounded Furudegawa Kami from the left and right.
Kotekawa was bewildered as he looked at the long-tongued, red-eyed woman covered in white cloth and the other nearly two-meter-tall black dog-shaped, red-eyed spirit.
Is this Piao Jiang or a shikigami?
Oh, it doesn't seem to be any different.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at the tall, thin figure and asked in surprise, "Are you an Onmyoji? And you want to kill me? The sentencing standards for Onmyoji crimes are much harsher."
"I've wanted to kill you for a long time!" The tall, thin young man's voice was filled with hatred as he snarled, "Do it! Do it now!"
Kotekawa Kami frowned, unable to understand what had gotten into this bastard that he dared to use a shikigami to kill someone.
The two shikigami surrounding them suddenly sprang into action.
Kotekawa's face turned cold. He used his umbrella like a sword, first piercing the throat of the white cloth-covered ghost, and then, with lightning speed, piercing the head of the black dog-shaped spirit.
The two Piao Jiang, which were at most "Difficulty Level 3", vanished in an instant, utterly dead.
He looked up at the tall, thin figure.
The latter stood there dumbfounded, his previous ferocity turning into a blank stare. Without thinking, he turned and ran.
Seeing no way he could escape, Kawakami gathered all his strength, took long strides, and caught up with him at lightning speed, like a shooting star chasing the moon, before launching a flying kick.
The kick was very powerful. The tall, thin man screamed and, due to the momentum, was thrown out of his body, rolling a long distance, his face bruised and swollen, his head covered in blood.
Still not satisfied, Kawakami chased after him, lifted him up with one hand, and then slapped him with both hands.
Hanging him while being whipped!
Suddenly, the air was filled with crisp, cheerful "pa pa pa pa pa" sounds.
The tall, thin man's face quickly swelled up like a pig's head, and with a final groan, he slumped into a lump of mud.
Kotekawa felt a little better, and then dragged her like a dead dog to the Special Division.
This bastard dared to order his shikigami to kill someone in the street; this must be the first time he's done it. Arrest him and investigate; he might be a wanted fugitive or something, and we could probably exchange him for some money.
Chapter 51 You were glowing just now
In the Special Division, Yasuhiro Ishikawa, the specialist in the First Division, looked at Kamiko Kotegawa with a solemn expression.
He slowly said, "Based on preliminary assessment, he is a suspected rioter."
"?" Kotekawa Kami was stunned for a moment, a big question mark slowly forming in his mind.
