She confirmed that the great Onmyoji beside her was her only savior.

"Well...what you said makes sense."

Ian responded, and then gently turned Tamamonomae over.

now.

The great Yin-Yang Master saw the charming fox demon's sincerity.

It was a sight that swept across every inch of skin from bottom to top.

Tamamonomae was a little shy.

However, she did not cover any part of her body, allowing the other party to examine it freely.

After the Great Onmyoji's gaze stopped, she spoke in a low voice:

"Mr. Abe, have you finished reading?"

"Is there anything you didn't see clearly? I can let you see it more carefully."

Not to please.

It is not flattery.

Tamamonomae only said this because the other party needed her to do so.

"enough."

Ian replied.

"I've seen enough of Xiaoyu's body."

"That--"

"Can I ask you a small question?" Tamamonomae asked cautiously.

"of course."

"Then Mr. Abe...does this concubine look good?"

"..."

【You realize that this question might be of some importance to Tamamonomae.】

You think about it for a moment.

"nice."

Ian's eyes once again fell on Tamamonomae's heaving body.

“It’s a body that is a collection of beauty.”

"So in order to preserve this beauty...something must be done."

"Mr. Abe..."

Tamamonomae was very moved.

After all, although the other party always talks about exchanging interests, in fact they take a lot of risks for themselves.

"So what should we do next?"

"I won't be negligent again."

"Xiaoyu, put your hand out." Ian said.

"..."

Tamamonomae sat up and stretched out her hands obediently.

Ian picked up the rope that was just on her back and tied Tamamonomae's hands.

"Xiaoyu, if it's a knot like this, do you think you can get it free?"

"..."

Although she thought the question was strange, Tamamonomae still answered it very honestly.

"Just loosen it up a bit."

"Well, that's good," Ian nodded thoughtfully.

"..."

"Although I may not have the right to ask this question," Tamamonomae said carefully, "I still want to know Mr. Abe's purpose."

"My tail hair."

"My body appearance."

"And now the ropes."

"Mr. Abe, are you going to..."

Faced with Tamamonomae's question, Ian did not hesitate and explained directly.

"Xiaoyu, what do you think is the most direct way to determine a person's death?"

"..."

After thinking for a while, Tamamonomae came up with his own answer.

"The body was found, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized something.

"Mr. Abe...are you going to make my 'corpse' based on those things?"

The tail hair is a disguise of scent and identity;

Shape is what is needed to build the body;

"Xiao Yu, you are really smart." Ian affirmed Tamamonomae's words in an approving manner.

"Then—" she demanded.

"What about the rope?"

"Because I want to let others know that I caught you, and then I will 'kill' you in front of them - this way, the news of 'death' can be confirmed."

Tamamonomae certainly knew that what Ian meant by "killing" was definitely not the real killing of herself.

If you clear your mind,

It means that the Great Onmyoji pretends to kill his tied self in front of everyone, but in fact he just wants to make up the illusion of death and make the corpse appear in front of everyone.

In this way, Tamamonomae will be identified as a "killed monster" and the manhunt will end.

Come to think of it... maybe the previous hand holding was also to attract attention.

This was a risky operation to deceive everyone.

Once any clues are discovered, there will be danger on the spot.

And this was just to get himself out of the hunt.

Tamamo Mae looked at the man in front of her, with only gratitude and worry in her golden eyes.

"Mr. Abe...is this a little dangerous for you?"

"No."

Ian looked at Tamamonomae's graceful body without any worry about facing danger.

"If you don't even have this much courage—"

"How can I be worthy of the title of Kyoto's number one Yin-Yang Master?"

Hearing this, Tamamonomae's face turned red and she muttered softly.

"Well...the number one onmyoji in Kyoto."

"Is he someone worthy of my wholehearted service?"

141. Minamoto no Raikou: They say you have a lover outside (-word chapter)

【Your plan is progressing further. 】

[You go in and out of the mansion where Tamamonomae is hiding more frequently.]

You do this to attract as much attention as possible.

【And the result is exactly what you wish. 】

The streets of Kyoto.

"Mr. Abe."

Tamamonomae looked at the bustling streets, her brows filled with endless worry.

The memories of the previous foot soldiers recurred in her mind.

In fact, the fox demon did feel that there were a lot of troublemakers around the mansion.

Although they dared not do anything to the Great Onmyoji's lover, it was still worth being vigilant.

"I...seem to have been targeted."

"If we continue to do this, won't it affect Mr. Abe?"

"Xiaoyu, you don't have to think about this."

Ian touched the head of Tamamonomae, who was worried beside him, and tried to comfort her.

"You just need to be obedient, okay?"

"As long as no one sees you like this, don't worry."

Tamamonomae nodded meekly.

She now trusts this great Onmyoji very much.

"My concubine understands."

"I will definitely protect myself well."

"Well, that's right."

【Rumors about your lover are getting more and more intense.】

【But you don’t care about all this. 】

[Because this is exactly what you need—to be eye-catching enough and to attract enough attention.]

[In this way, there will be a more accurate consensus on things like "killing the fox demon." ]

【But you’re not just building momentum. 】

[You still have to plan Tamamonomae's next move. ]

"Migu!"

Tamamonomae closed her eyes and seemed to be enduring something.

Her hands were grabbing the tatami beneath her tightly, leaving scratches on it.

The legs that were placed in an M shape were shaking constantly.

The exit of the fox's treasure was tightly blocked by a small wooden stopper.

The two fit tightly together, without even a single gap.

The Great Onmyoji gently stroked the edge of the flawless white treasure, and then whispered in the fox demon's ear:

"Xiaoyu, it's ready now."

"Migu!"

There was a pop.

The small wooden cork was pushed out, hit the wall, fell back onto the tatami, and then rolled a few times.

The resulting splashes of water danced in the air, and then fell down, wetting a large area.

"Xiaoyu."
