Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful fox

Hoshino Hideyuki interrupted:

"Wait a minute, is the culprit showing up so soon?"

"According to the general plot of a novel, shouldn't this kind of existence be written for more than a dozen chapters, with flashbacks and flashbacks added in, and only make a shocking appearance after the protagonists have collected clues and unraveled the mystery?"

"Maybe there will be another twist, for example, the succulent plants in the home of the eighth aunt of the seventh aunt, who is actually the security guard at the door, turned into spirits, and because the eighth aunt was partial to the spider plant on the balcony next door, she turned her love into hatred..."

Yukiho Amamiya tilted her head and smiled:

"Mr. Smiley Fox's ideas sound really interesting. If you write a novel in the future, please let me know. I will definitely read it~"

"However, the real world is full of coincidences and accidents - ah, it may also be that the author who wrote our world is not good enough to write a story that is linked together, but it's the same~"

"Anyway, the accident happened."

"I just wanted to do some investigation at first, but I didn't expect to meet her..."

As the eldest lady spoke, she suddenly took out a piece of paper and pen from behind her, and displayed her superb painting skills, and started drawing Hoshino Hideyuki on the spot.

"It was a long-legged spider with a trunk of about five meters. It had a human face on its belly and was covered with black and yellow stripes. Its voice sounded like that of a middle-aged woman..."

"At first I thought she was just an ordinary monster, but after fighting her I found out she was quite powerful, and her aura was closely connected to the white net outside. That's how I confirmed she was the source of all the anomalies here."

"Then..."

"I was distracted by overthinking and accidentally got bitten by her. I was poisoned and ended up being carried back by you, Mr. Smiley Fox."

Yukiho Amemiya stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.

“That’s my experience since I came to the village~”

"Next, Mr. Smiling Fox, shouldn't you also tell me about your..."

"I reject."

Hoshino Hideyuki said decisively: "Compared to what you have experienced, my little story is nothing to talk about."

"Eh? This isn't fair..."

"Cough cough!"

Hoshino Hideyuki immediately changed the subject and said, "In short, I roughly understand the current situation. So, based on our past friendship and the reality that I really can't escape, I am willing to work with you, young lady, to deal with the spider."

"...Of course, the premise is that you don't do anything extreme!"

Yukiho Amemiya nodded frantically, as if to say, "I'm elegant, cute, and well-behaved, and I'm just another child among other children, and I would never do anything extreme."

It's so funny. Only an idiot would believe the advances of a female vixen.

Hoshino Hideyuki rolled his eyes and continued:

"Since the intention of cooperation has been decided, next, I would like to ask you in detail about the spider... She was able to hurt you. Could it be that she is a big monster?"

In Hoshino Hideyuki's opinion, Amamiya Yukiho is the strongest person he knows in the world.

Although the sense of oppression is still less than that of Ryoko Senjougahara, it is absolutely no problem to say that she is the strongest below the great monster.

Only a big monster could injure this female fox.

However, Yukiho Amamiya shook her head.

“Close, but not quite there yet.”

"She was able to hurt me for two main reasons."

"First, it's the white web outside. To be more precise, it's the spider web barrier she wove."

“Spiders are good at creating barriers, and the spider web she laid is closely connected to the spiritual veins of this place, almost integrated into it. It looks like a spider web, but in essence it is more like a part of the mountain.”

"Not only does this give her nearly unlimited mana, it also greatly suppresses the enemies under the net."

"That's why you, Mr. Smiley Fox, can't break it. Not only you, but it's also difficult for me to do it. In other words, if we can't solve the source of everything, you and I will be trapped here."

"Secondly... although she looks like a monster, she is actually more like a mutated god~"

Hoshino Hideyuki raised his eyebrows: "God?"

"That's right. I only vaguely realized it after we fought. That guy's body is full of divine power and mixed beliefs." Yukiho Amamiya said in a deep voice:

"So I guess she was originally a nearby mountain god, but for unknown reasons she became what she is now."

"That's why she can fully mobilize the local spiritual energy. Her fighting moves are also very methodical. It's obvious that they have been honed over hundreds of years..."

Hoshino Hideyuki pursed his lips.

Good guy.

I thought I would have a smooth journey before I set out, but now, with a female fox and a female spider, I met two gods at once!

"But generally speaking, I am still stronger. Even though I was injured, she was actually frightened by me. She must be feeling bad now!"

Yukiho Amamiya laughed and said, "But, with the spider web above my head, I really can't take her down..."

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

"I don't know~"

"Hey?"

Hoshino Hideyuki widened his eyes: "According to your habits, Miss, you should have already thought of the ABC plan and the final backup plan!"

Yukiho Amamiya covered her mouth and chuckled, "Huh? Mr. Smiley Fox doesn't like me being so strong?"

"Of course I don't like being chased by you, but I like it when I'm your teammate! Don't be like other villains who become weaker after being whitewashed!"

"Oh my, have I been cleared in the eyes of Mr. Smiley Fox? I'm so happy~"

no……

Forget it, you young lady don’t understand what people say.

Hoshino Hideyuki let out a long sigh, knowing that he couldn't be lazy this time.

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

"You spider, you have ten legs, right?"

"Yeah, that's right~"

"I saw something similar at Kitagawa Kenichi's place..."

Chapter 161: Fox Unlocks Ladybug Form

at the same time.

Kenichi Kitagawa, together with his agent Shizuka Hanazawa, secretly came to the gate of the now abandoned general hospital on the east side of Musashi Village, which was once the only hospital in the village, without telling anyone else in the crew.

Looking at the spooky hospital full of weeds and creepers, with broken windows, Kitagawa Kenichi stopped and asked Hanazawa Shizuka, who was leading the way, "Are we sure we want to meet the Virgin Mary here?"

"Yes, Kenichi."

Shizuka Hanazawa turned her head and held Kitagawa Kenichi's right hand affectionately with both hands and said: "Don't be fooled by the false appearance on the surface. The palace of the Virgin Mary is hidden underground. It is definitely a sacred place that you can't imagine~"

"Yeah, I believe you."

Kenichi Kitagawa was accustomed to the ambiguous behavior of his female assistant and just responded impatiently.

at this time.

With a rustling sound, the hospital door opened and the village chief Sasaki Satoshi walked out with two followers.

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

"I'm very sorry, Your Highness, the plan has changed and the blessing ceremony needs to be postponed..."

"Postponed? What do you mean?" Shizuka Hanazawa raised her eyebrows slightly: "Didn't we prepare for it for a long time and set it for today?"

"This... Huaze, you will know if you come with me later..."

Sasaki Satoshi finished explaining with some displeasure, then turned to Kitagawa Kenichi and said respectfully: "Your Highness, don't worry, it's nothing serious, we just want to pursue a more perfect timing."

"Well, I've been waiting for several years anyway, so I don't mind waiting a few more days..."

Kitagawa Kenichi shrugged and changed the subject: "But, can you give me some more of that blue holy water that can make people obedient?"

"There are a few people on the crew who have been against me recently. It's very annoying. I want to teach them a lesson."

Sasaki Satoshi thought for a moment and shook his head.

"The ceremony is approaching, Your Highness, please be patient."

"Tsk, it's true."

Kenichi Kitagawa shook his hands and turned away.

Shizuka Hanazawa immediately trotted over, spoke sweet nothings to him for a while, then came back alone and said to Sasaki Satoshi in a deep voice, "What's going on? That kid has been getting irritable lately. If you keep dragging it on like this..."

"Come with me."

Sasaki Satoshi didn't say much. He asked two followers to wait outside and took Hanazawa Shizuka into the hospital and went straight to the elevator on the first floor.

A ding-dong sound.

The elevator, which was not supposed to have power, suddenly started up, sending the two people underground.

About ten seconds later, the elevator stopped and the two came to an underground cave so large that the end was invisible.

There is a shrine in front of it.

At first glance, this shrine has everything it should have, with tall vermilion torii gates and layered green-tiled main hall, which seems very sacred and majestic.

But if you look closely...

You will find that the surface of every piece of wood here is covered with twisted yellow, black and white lines, which exude an extremely evil nature. Staring at it for a while is enough to make ordinary people dizzy, nauseous and want to vomit.

However, Sasaki Satoshi and Hanazawa Shizuka walked into the shrine respectfully.

As they walked, their faces changed.

After a few steps, the human face turned into a spider's head, with a hideous mouth and eight eyes clustered together. It looked very scary, like a monster that would appear in a B-level movie.

"Sir!" "You must see Sir!"

Two spider heads prostrated themselves before a spherical statue inside the shrine.

Then, the statue slowly vibrated, unfolded, and finally turned 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 belly was bruised and swollen, with green bloodshot in its eyes.

"Master Sumire, are you injured?"

Shizuka Hanazawa finally realized what was happening, and her chin almost hit her feet: "How is it possible? Who is it..."

"There's an alien god mixed into the crew."

The big spider said slowly in a hoarse female voice: "She hurt me."

"To think that there would be such an outrageous thing..."

Huaze Shizuka said, kowtowing heavily, "Please tell me who she is, sir. I will go and help you with your worries right away!"

"Don't show your loyalty here."

Sasaki Satoshi rolled his eyes at Hanazawa Shizuka with disdain and said, "How can you deal with someone who can injure an adult?"

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

Faced with the bickering among his subordinates, the big spider did not react at all, neither praised nor stopped them, he just watched quietly.

Next, Sasaki Satoshi ignored Hanazawa Shizuka's gaze, turned around and kowtowed to the big spider:

"Sir, I have investigated the identity of that god. It is most likely Yukiho Amamiya who almost got lost in the mountains yesterday."

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

The big spider's mouthparts rubbed against each other, making a crackling sound.

"very good."

"If we face off head-on, even if I have the upper hand, it will cost me a lot to defeat her."

"In that case, why don't you take advantage of your status and give her a try."

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

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