After Ouyang Xuan landed, he wanted to put down Qinzi, who was holding him like a princess, but Qinzi hugged Ouyang Xuan's neck even tighter. She was so strong that she pulled Ouyang Xuan to bend over.
"Kotoko, what's wrong?"
"When it was my turn just now, I said I had no food to eat. I'm very angry now. I need to absorb more Ouyang energy in public to feel better."
Kotoko's tone was gloomy, with a hint of gnashing of teeth.
"I'm the only one missing, and you actually don't give me food. That's too much! Ouyang, you're too much! The little organ under my stomach is trembling from hunger. Do you know what will happen if it starves to death and I can't give birth to a child for you, Ouyang? Can you fetch me some water from the Zimu River?"
"Wasn't it agreed at the beginning that it would be forty-five minutes?"
Ouyang Xuan asked in confusion.
After seeing Takina's message, Ouyang Jun originally wanted to leave immediately, but how could the lovers who were already ready to go let Ouyang Jun leave, so they agreed to have a 45-minute meal. Anyway, seeing that Takina said that they were not in a hurry, they would eat first.
But to Kotoko's surprise, Heihonghong actually stood up a little bit. She used to pass out after eating only half a bite, but this time she ate three full bites, which took several times longer than before. Although she didn't eat much at a time, she recovered quickly and could eat several more bites, which resulted in the time she had estimated at the beginning being insufficient.
But after Haruno finished her meal with satisfaction, it was exactly forty-five minutes before Kotoko's turn. How could Kotoko give up just because she saw the cooked duck fly away? But Takina still had to be dealt with, so Kotoko compromised and asked to come along, and began to conceive a new plan in her mind.
After acting coquettishly in Ouyang Xuan's arms for half a minute, Kotoko jumped out of Ouyang Xuan's princess arms. Unlike the Kotoko who was acting coquettishly and complaining in Ouyang Xuan's arms, Kotoko at this time was dignified and quiet, looking like a lady. When she was in Ouyang Xuan's arms, she was Kotoko's original form, so now Kotoko is the god of wisdom mode of monsters and ghosts.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Sakurajima Mai."
Kotoko gracefully lifted her skirt slightly and saluted.
"Ah, hello, hello."
Mai pulled her Qianbu coat tighter around her body, sat down with her legs together and greeted him.
There was no way. In front of Kotoko, the elegant and dignified young lady, Mai felt that if she stood up and showed her the clothes she was wearing, she would feel extremely ashamed as if she was being publicly executed. Look, on one side there was a young lady in a white dress and white stockings bowing gracefully in the park at night, and on the other side there was Chi Nu wearing bunny girl black stockings in the park late at night. What kind of ultimate public execution was this?
"We passed by a clothing store when we first arrived. If Miss Sakurajima doesn't mind my taste, please accept this as a gift."
Kotoko waved her hand, and a paper bag floated in the air, flying in front of Mai.
Although Kotoko is the god of wisdom among monsters and ghosts, she herself has no magical powers and cannot use spells. The reason why she can make a paper bag fly in front of Mai just by waving it is of course because it was done by Ouyang Sun.
Originally, Ouyang Jun was going to take it to Mai. After all, it was only a few steps away and there was no need to use the power of the chicken talisman. But before he took a step, Qinzi grabbed the corner of his clothes and called out to Ouyang Jun with her eyes. Not knowing what Qinzi was doing, Ouyang Jun stopped.
Are you kidding me? In the middle of the night in the park, I let my lover take a full set of women's clothing I just bought from a clothing store to a beautiful young actress in a bunny girl outfit and black. Do you really think I, Iwanaga Kotoko, am surnamed Yuzen? A stranger wants to get so close to Ouyang casually? Don't even think about it. At least she needs to pass the test of our members.
"How can this be so embarrassing?"
"We will have a meeting later. Miss Sakurajima's current clothes are not very suitable. In order for our commission to proceed smoothly, please change into this set of clothes. If Miss Sakurajima feels that it is not suitable, you can pay to buy this set of clothes later."
"I'll pay later."
Mai held up the paper bag from the bottom. The moment Mai's hand touched the paper bag, the force that kept the bag suspended disappeared, and the weight of the bag completely pressed on her arm. Finally, Mai touched the surrounding area of the paper bag, looking for fishing line or something else.
"This is the spell of the senior."
Chizuki saw Mai's movements and knew what she was thinking. "Ms. Sakurajima, even if you turn the bag over, you won't be able to find anything like fishing line. This isn't magic, it's real sorcery."
"I just think it's amazing, I don't doubt the intentions of Senior Ouyang and Miss Jinmu."
Mai hugged the paper bag to her chest awkwardly. "After all, in the past ten years of my life, I never thought I would encounter such a thing. I did it subconsciously."
"Now Miss Sakurajima has half a foot in the other world. In the future, you might encounter things like this, including monsters and ghosts, more often. So it's better to adapt in advance. If you need help, you can come to Liko Liko Cafe and ask for help from the seniors."
"Don't talk like you're someone from our Riko Riko shop."
Takina corrected Chizuka, "Ms. Sakurajima, there's a public restroom over there. You can go there to change your clothes."
After going into the bathroom to change clothes and putting on a beige dress bought by Kotoko, Mai finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had gone out wearing a bunny girl costume before, on the one hand to see if she could attract other people's attention and break the fact that she could not be seen or noticed, and on the other hand, since you can't see it, then why should I be shy, it doesn't matter.
But Mai is a conservative girl after all, so dressing as a bunny girl is already a huge attempt that requires courage. If no one sees her, it would be okay. But if someone sees her, it would mean that she has exchanged her extroversion for a lifetime of introversion. She would be so ashamed and angry that she would want to commit suicide. It was only because of the excitement brought by the turnaround of her predicament that Mai did not fully react for a while.
But after changing her clothes in the bathroom and looking at the bunny girl costume and black stockings in her hands that were warm from her body temperature, she suddenly felt ashamed and her hands holding the bunny girl costume began to tremble.
What the hell was I thinking!? How did I even think of wearing a bunny girl outfit?! I was happy to be discovered again, but it was also embarrassing to be discovered! And I was even seen by a senior who seemed so steady and reliable. Just now, he was about to get the clothes for me, but the lady stopped him. She must have thought I was a Chi Nu!? My image!
It took Mai five minutes to change her clothes, and a full ten minutes to sort herself out. At this moment, the ability to quickly adjust her mood that she had trained as an actor came in handy, allowing Mai to save her mood that was about to burst due to shame and anger in just ten minutes.
If Mai wasn't afraid that her bunny girl costume would be picked up by strange people and used for strange things, she would have put it in a paper bag and thrown it directly into the trash can.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. It took me a while to change my clothes."
Mai clutched the paper bag tightly, an apologetic look on her face.
"it's okay no problem."
Kotoko waved her hand to indicate that it was all right, and then said, "We could have taken this opportunity to discuss briefly what might have happened to you, Miss Sakurajima, but now it feels like our discussion was wasted."
"Is that so? I just proposed a lot of ideas, but are they all useless?"
Qianshu was horrified. All the possibilities he had racked his brain to come up with were in vain? Those were the possibilities he had come up with after watching so many movies.
"Eh? Could it be..."
Mai was so frightened that her face turned pale. Why did Kotoko's tone sound like a doctor shaking his head and sighing at his own patient? "Is there no solution to what's happening to me? Am I going to stay like this, invisible to others, for the rest of my life?"
"But, but you can see me!"
"Calm down, Miss Sakurajima."
Takina pressed Mai's shoulders, telling her not to panic and be afraid. "Senior and Kotoko-san will definitely help you. You have to trust them."
"We just found the reason, that's all. Miss Sakurajima is so-called invisible and undetectable."
"What is it?"
Mai asked anxiously. Takina was also a little confused. How come they had just discussed for more than ten minutes, and Ouyang Hayabusa and Kotoko had put forward various hypotheses, but they still hadn't been confirmed, but now as soon as Mai came out, it could be confirmed.
"what!"
Qian Shu suddenly screamed and excitedly pulled Ouyang Falcon's sleeve, "I noticed it too, Senior, is it a shadow?"
"Yes."
Ouyang Xuan nodded in agreement with Qian Shu's words.
"shadow?"
Hearing this, Takina and Mai turned their heads together, and saw that under the illumination of the street lamp, a black block called a shadow was added to the gray-white park tiles. However, there were only Takina and Mai squatting on the ground, but there was only one shadow on the ground, only Takina's shadow.
Loud noises and flames were being heard from a Japanese-style house in Kyoto that was built in the late Edo period.
"Hakurei Shrine enforces the law! All demons and monsters surrender!"
Holding the talisman paper in one hand and the imperial coin in the other, the talisman paper burned to release the spell inside, which was either an invisible cutting blade or some kind of energy wave. The imperial coin in his hand was waved to drive the flashing spell. When the evil spirits in the house touched it, they felt pain as if they were burned by the sun, and then turned into ashes.
As expected of the shrine maiden who is second only to Yakumo Yukari in the Hakurei Shrine, Reimu only spent ten minutes from entering the door to clearing out the dozen or so evil spirits in the entire house. After all the evil spirits were killed, the weaker shrine maidens of the Hakurei Shrine entered and quickly took out jars from the basement. Inside the jars were little figures who were completely black and had no visible facial features. These were shadows cut off by the evil spirits.
"Sir Hakurei, the traces of seventy-three of the one hundred and sixty-eight people who disappeared or lost their presence in Kyoto during this period have been found."
"Others, or already..."
"Okay, I see."
Reimu interrupted the shrine maiden who was about to say something but hesitated. It had been half a month since people were found missing and lost their presence in Kyoto. Those who were not found in the basement had probably become food for the evil spirits.
"Have you found their leader? According to the intelligence, only one evil ghost has the ability to cut off shadows. The ones I just killed were just pitiful creatures who lost their shadows and became half-human, half-ghost."
Reimu asked the group of shrine maidens, unfortunately, there was no evil spirit with the ability to cut off shadows in this house.
"Hakurei-sama, the Palace Master is calling."
A shrine maiden handed Reimu a cell phone.
"Hey, we rescued seventy-three guys, but we didn't find the evil ghost that can cut off shadows."
Reimu picked up the phone, "What? Found it? Where is it? I'm going to burn his account book now?"
"In Tokyo?"

Chapter 8 Rurouni Kenshin.
"Wow, wow, wow, Miss Sakurajima is clearly alive, but there is no shadow at all."
Chizuka ran to Takina and Mai and squatted down, looking at the clear shadows of herself and Takina on the ground, but she could not see the shadow of Mai between the two of them. Chizuka shouted in surprise, and raised her hands and waved them like a new DX toy, making the shadow on the ground wave along with it.
"You haven't noticed your shadow is gone in all this time?"
Ouyang Falcon asked.
"Ah, I really hadn't noticed that."
Mai didn't expect that although the shadow had been following her since she was born, it had no sense of existence and no one noticed her disappearance.
"Is it because my shadow is gone that people can't see me?"
"The disappearance of your shadow is just a manifestation. Strictly speaking, your sense of existence has been removed from you."
Kotoko came over.
"Was it done by a monster unique to the island nation?"
"No."
Kotoko shook her head slightly. "I am the God of Wisdom of all the monsters and ghosts on this island nation. I may not understand or know every individual monster, but their races and knowledge were infused into my consciousness the moment I became the God of Wisdom."
"I can confirm that there are no monsters in the entire island nation that can eat people's existence and shadows."
After saying this, Qinzi added with a serious attitude, "If it's a mutant, I can't be sure."
"No, there is another possibility besides monsters."
Ouyang Falcon said.
"Another possibility."
Qinzi understood what Ouyang Falcon was talking about. "Ouyang, are you talking about the man-made evil spirits that have appeared all over the island country recently?"
"I've fought against some of them. Although their overall strength isn't very impressive, each of them has unique abilities, such as trap-making and physical enhancement. It's also possible that there's an individual that can prey on humans."
"The evil spirits that Senior mentioned are the ones we dealt with in the TV tower before?"
Takina stood up suddenly.
"Yes."
Ouyang Jun felt that there was no need to keep it secret from Takina, even though it was a state secret that the island nation's Ministry of Supernatural Powers had strictly enforced.
"From Shikoku to Hokkaido, these evil spirits have been discovered by local spiritual ministries and local afterlife organizations in many places across the island nation. Although most of the evil spirits are very weak and have been killed by various explosions by the spiritual ministries and afterlife organizations, they have still caused quite a bit of discussion in the afterlife. Hundreds of meetings have been held in the east and west recently. As the god of wisdom for the monsters and ghosts, I was even dragged into two of them."
"Those old guys are just bickering all day long. They even argued for two months over whether these demons were the same species as the demons that were eliminated by a civilian group during the Taisho era. Enough is enough. They have to be dealt with anyway, so whether they are the same species or not is the same result."
Qinzi was filled with resentment when she said these words. If Ouyang had not followed her to prevent Qinzi from being overwhelmed by the boring and depressing atmosphere in the venue, so that Qinzi could stroke Ouyang Falcon while listening to the report, she would have left long ago.
"If they are from the same clan, we can rely on the information we left behind to better deal with these newly appeared evil spirits."
Takina tried to defend the group of idiots above.
"The information? It's long gone. If it existed, there would be no need to argue about it."
Qinzi said helplessly.
"During the war, when Tokyo was burning, the entire city was about to be destroyed. How could anyone protect these insignificant materials? All the materials were burned in the war. The people from the civil groups also retired after defeating the demons. We still don't know their names, what demons are, and the name of their leader."
"But I'm not completely ignorant."
Ouyang Xuan added.
"What's the difference between that information and not knowing anything?"
Kotoko said indifferently, "There are some descendants of that folk group who are still passing on the technology and combat methods, but they don't know much more than us. They know their mission is to hunt down the remaining evil spirits, but they don't know why or how many to kill. In recent years, they have killed more and more."
"Aren't we fighting a group of enemies whose details we don't know at all?"
Qianzhu exclaimed.
"not us."
Ouyang Xuan interrupted Qian Shu, pointed at himself and Qin Zi, and said, "It's us."
Ouyang Sun's meaning was very clear. As Chizuka and Takina were from the surface world, they should not get too involved. The last incident at the TV tower was an exception among exceptions. Ouyang Sun had no intention of letting these two people who had no self-protection ability and relied on enchanted weapons to kill enemies fight a group of evil spirits with him.
Chizuka and Takina understood what Ouyang Xuan said. Takina lowered her head and clenched her hands tightly, feeling indignant at her own weakness, while Chizuka pouted and stared at Ouyang Xuan with wide eyes in dissatisfaction, saying, "Although what you said is true, it makes me very unhappy."
"Ms. Sakurajima, can you tell me where you went and what you did before you realized your presence had disappeared?"
Kotoko started working.
"Oh, oh, let me think about it."
