"Knock, knock, knock …"

There was a knock on the door, and the next moment, the person pushed the door open impatiently. A middle-aged man with red eyes poked his head in.

"Excuse me, I'm Ryuhei Osaki. I just received your call, so I came over with my wife. May I ask if my daughter —"

Tezuka and Guo Qing were preparing documents in the office. Hearing this, they stood up and opened the door.

After revealing a little about the discovery of the murder case, he lowered his head and pleaded helplessly, "… Although it's very cruel, I still hope that the two of you can verify the identity of the body."

Ryuhei Osaki sat on the sofa in a daze. He seemed to have not recovered from the bad news of the discovery of the suspected body of his daughter. He trembled and asked Tezuka, "Is there a mistake?

My daughter is just missing. "

"Is there a mistake? My daughter, my daughter, how could it be …"

On the contrary, Ryuhei Osaki's wife, Osaki Takako, was calmer. She took her husband's hand and calmly said to Tezuka, "Officer Tezuka, please lead the way."

She had been looking for her daughter. After calling the police, the police did not have any clues, so she printed a lot of flyers and went door to door asking. It didn't matter if she couldn't find her for a day or a week. She tried her best to ask and look for her. Someone must have seen her.

In the three months that felt like years, she had been looking for her. Sometimes, she regretted it. If she had known, she would have let her rest at home that day. If she had known, she would have followed her wishes and not let her go to cram school. If she had known, she would have talked to her more that morning. If she had known …

Osaki Takako looked at the naked body in front of her. It was blind and bloodstained. She couldn't help but reach out and touch the body's cheek carefully and gently.

As a mother, how could she not recognize her daughter?

Ryuhei Osaki, who recognized his daughter, began to cry. Tezuka and Guo Qing saw this and stepped aside considerately to let the two of them vent their emotions.

Just as they were about to move, a young policeman rushed in with a laptop in his hand.

"There's no time to explain. Look at this first —"

Osaki Takako ignored her crying husband. She took out a tissue from her bag and carefully wiped her daughter's face.

My daughter, Osaki Matsuru, was born in a snowy winter.

Ever since she was young, she had always been afraid of the cold and pain. Even when she was sick and needed an injection, she would scream in fear. She had inherited her father's beautiful eyes and would always stare at me coquettishly. I would always surrender.

Her grades were not good, but she was very obedient. Her father told her to go to the cram school, so she went.

Didn't you say you wanted to eat a beef burger?

Mom has been making beef burgers every day for the past three months. Why haven't you come home to eat them yet?

Tears dripped onto the empty eye sockets on the corpse's cheeks, which were badly mangled by the flesh and blood.

"My Song Lu, does it hurt?

Did it hurt when your eyes were dug out? "

*

Nana Nishimura stared at Ryota Hwang Se in disbelief and screamed angrily.

"Enter!

Kill him!

Smash the phone! "

Matsuda Jin, who was wearing a vest, bent down expressionlessly and picked up a rusty long-handled hammer from the door. He walked past Nana Nishimura and approached Huang Se.

"A live broadcast of the murder?"

At this critical moment, Huang Se suddenly calmed down. He held up his phone and quickly retreated.

Huang Se originally had his own live broadcast room. At first, his fans were stationed in the live broadcast room. After realizing that their idol was in danger, many fans chose to call the police. More people cursed Nana Nishimura in the live broadcast room, which attracted more people to watch.

Huang Se's agent immediately called the police and contacted the live broadcast platform to deal with the situation. That was why hundreds of thousands of people watched the live broadcast in such a short time.

At this time, countless comments on the screen were cursing Nana Nishimura. Many viewers who used to be Nana Nishimura's die-hard fans couldn't believe that their goddess was a vicious murderer. How dare she continue to deceive the public?

The strong sense of disgust from liking such a disgusting woman and the anger of being deceived caused the fans to collectively leave her. They deleted all the news about Nishimura's support and unfollowed Nishimura. More die-hard fans couldn't help but run to Nishimura's homepage and private messages to curse.

Nainai Nainai's fans, who had heard the news, exploded in anger after hearing Nainai Nainai's voice recording. They announced that they were no longer fans of Nainai Nainai and began to work hard to collect evidence to report to the police.

On the front page of the Japanese Twitter, the topic of Nana Nishimura became more and more popular. Countless people gnashed their teeth and spontaneously petitioned to "sentence Nana Nishimura to death."

— Scum, scum, like this kind of person!

Killing her won't appease the public's anger!

The second most popular topic was "Saving the Lonely Hero Ryota Hwang Se."

(Huang Se: …)

As for the Tokyo Police Department, which was so busy because of this live broadcast, if such a vicious murder case was broadcast nationwide, the Metropolitan Police Department would lose face.

The police immediately arrested Nana Nishimura's agent and began a carpet search of Huang Se's location.

Like the police, more people were worried about Ryota Hwang Se's safety at this moment. In the live broadcast room, they crazily sent bullet comments to Huang Se to ask if he knew where he was and suggested that Huang Se post his current location on the Internet as soon as possible.

[Nana Nishimura, go to hell, sow!

How can a person like you have the face to live in this world?]

[Kun Hwang, hurry up and open your phone's location!

It'll be too late if you don't!]

[What are the police doing?!

How long has it been? Why haven't they found Kun Hwang yet?!]

[Nana Nishimura, you b * tch!

If you dare to touch Kun Hwang, I'll sue you to death!

My whole family are lawyers!]

[Kun Hwang, hurry up and run. We don't want the truth. We just want you to be safe and sound …]

In the blink of an eye, countless bullet comments flooded the screen. Just as Huang Se was about to send his coordinates to his agent, his arm was hit by a huge hammer. He let go of the phone in pain and Matsuda Jin rushed forward to pick it up and pass it to Nana Nishimura.

Looking at the curses in the bullet comments, Nana Nishimura was so angry that her hands were trembling.

She gritted her teeth and turned off the phone. She threw the phone on the ground and stepped on it. With a ferocious face, she forced a smile. "It doesn't matter. If the identity of Nana Nishimura is exposed, I don't want it anymore!

As long as I have the talisman that the Lord gave me, I'll just change my face!

As long as I'm still a subordinate of Black Mang Tower — "

"As for you, it's useless even if your identity is exposed. Go to hell!"

Matsuda Jin, who obeyed Nana Nishimura's orders, raised his hammer and rushed forward to attack Huang Se.

"Mr. Huang Se, be careful!"

The golden feather turned into a sharp blade and attacked Matsuda Jin. Matsuda Jin tilted his head and dodged it, leaving only a trace of blood on the side of his face.

The little girl's hair stood on end as she stood in front of Kawase. Suddenly, Matsuda Jin's iron weapon smashed into her forehead, sending her flying away as light as a feather.

"Little Virgin!" Huang Se hurriedly picked up Virgin. His face was pale with fright. "Where are you hurt?"

The huge hammer sent the little girl flying in front of him. He didn't even have time to react. Virgin, who was injured in order to protect him, fell to the ground alone.

For the first time, a strange anger rose in Huang Se's heart.

Why was he so weak and always needed Little Hyuga and Little Virgin to protect him?

Just like what Little Hyuga said, if he really had strong spiritual power, why couldn't he do anything at the critical moment?

Trembling, Huang Se hugged the unconscious Virgin. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the little girl suddenly open her big blue eyes and blink.

Virgin:?

"Little, Little Virgin?"

"That, I'm fine …" Virgin jumped out of Huang Se's arms and stood upright. She shook her head. "It doesn't hurt at all?"

"Huh?"

"Kanai -sama said that I have the 'feather cloak', so I can block some damage?"

Virgin shook the feathers on her body. "Well, this level of damage is far worse than Ibaraki -sama's …" It was like a thousand points of damage.

So what exactly did you go through … Huang Se's face was full of awkwardness. When he turned his head to Matsuda Jin, he was even more shocked!

The muscular Matsuda Jin was kneeling on one knee. There was a deep wound on his forehead that was bleeding. Matsuda Jin didn't seem to care about the bleeding wound at all. He only looked in the direction of Huang Se and Virgin with unfocused eyes.

Huang Se finally couldn't help but complain. "What the hell? Did my spiritual power awaken a killer move?"

"Reflect damage …" Nana Nishimura squinted at Virgin. "What did the witch ask you to bring?"

"Reflect damage?"

The young girl blinked in confusion before she suddenly realized what was going on. She pulled out her sleeves and revealed several small pieces of jade that were glowing in the shape of a half-moon. "Right, Kanai-sama said that you gave me a bonded spirit so that if someone attacks me, the damage will be reflected back to me?"

"I think it's called 'Mirror Girl'?

Kanai -sama personally made it for me! "

Huang Se was rendered speechless.

Everyone fell into a frightening silence.

"Mirror Girl …" Nana Nishimura's eyes flashed with greed. "I didn't think that the witch would be willing to refine a bonded spirit for a little demon like you."

A black talisman flashed in her hand, and a black shadow swiftly flew towards Virgin. Virgin let out a low cry, and two stinking ghouls appeared behind Virgin and grabbed her four limbs.

"Jin, go kill Huang Se."

Nana Nishimura gave a gentle order to Matsuda Jin. She no longer paid any attention to Huang Se. All she cared about was the high-level bonded spirit that was glowing with a golden light on Virgin's body. "It's a waste for a little demon like you to have Mirror Girl. Just give her to me —!"

"Wah!

Little Virgin —! "

Facing Jin Matsuda's attack, Kawase, who had relied on his dexterity to dodge the attack, became anxious. Gritting his teeth, he rushed toward the zombie that was imprisoning the girl. Behind him, Jin Matsuda raised his iron weapon and aimed it at the back of Kawase's head, ready to deal a fatal blow.

"I'm spoiling her. Do you have a problem with that?"

At this critical moment, a white light flashed, and a familiar voice spoke up.

A huge light blue pillar formed out of nowhere quickly extended, and the huge force sent Matsuda Jin, who was about to attack Huang Se, flying away.

The enchantment continued to extend and envelop the little girl and Huang Ase, blocking the spells that Nainai Nainai had thrown at them. The ghouls within the enchantment had already been hit by the two talismans the moment the girl had spoken. They had disappeared before they could even make a sound.

The spiritual power contained in the huge barrier made Nana Nishimura retreat to the door as if she was burned. Matsuda Jin, who was hit again and again, knelt on the ground and coughed heavily.

Kanna Hyuga, who was wearing a white witch costume, floated down from the portal on the roof. She stood on the huge barrier and looked down at Nana Nishimura with a fake sneer. "We meet again, Nishimura-san."

"Little Hyuga!"

"Kanai -sama!"

Huang Se and Virgin, who were protected in the barrier, suddenly looked like little tadpoles who saw their mother (?).

Happy, Huang Se even glared at Matsuda Jin, who was in a miserable state and covered in dust. My little Hyuga (?)

Here it comes!

Let's see if you can hit us again!

"You —!"

Nana Nishimura wanted to say something, but in the next second, she was hit by a pile of Red Leaf from behind, and she fell to the ground in embarrassment.

"I seem to have stepped on something dirty?"

The fluttering Red Leaf slowly condensed into Gui Nu Red Leaf. The graceful Red Leaf stepped on Nana Nishimura's back, ignoring the woman's painful cries and struggles, and exerted force with the tip of her foot. "You're so annoying."

"You —" Before Nana Nishimura could curse, a red Maple Leaf doll appeared in Nana Nishimura's mouth and blocked her curses.

"Shh —" The Red Leaf put a finger to her mouth. "You don't want my doll to suddenly explode because of what you said, do you?

If that's the case, your little head will explode and your brain matter will be blown out. "

"…" Nana Nishimura, who was trembling like a sieve, shut up.

Kanna Hyuga knocked Matsuda Jin out with her scepter and jumped down to remove the barrier. Virgin, like a swallow returning to its nest, threw herself into Kanai's arms and rubbed back and forth in grievance. "Kanai -sama … Virgin is so scared!"

Kanna Hyuga held Virgin in her arms and comforted her while gently comforting Huang Se.

"This time, it's really … hard on Kun Hwang."

It was also because Huang Se had used Virgin's mobile phone to send him the location at the beginning that he and the Red Leaf could arrive in time.

In addition, he had cleverly turned on the live broadcast software to let the whole country, including the Shinto, notice this matter. Even if he did not deal with Nana Nishimura, she would die a horrible death.

"No, nothing." Huang Se blushed and lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Little Virgin risked her life to save me, I didn't do anything!"

This was the second time that Kanna Hyuga saved the hero (?)

Huang Se felt a little guilty. He wiped his face and asked Kanai, "These two people —"

"I've already contacted the police," Kanna Hyuga comforted him. "Knock them out and lock them up with a barrier. I'll keep an eye on them. I'll send you out first. Otherwise, when the police arrive later, it will be difficult to explain."

As she spoke, Kanna Hyuga pulled Virgin up and motioned for Huang Se to follow. The few of them walked out of the dark room that was densely engraved with talismans.

They slowly climbed up the narrow stairs and after opening two hidden metal doors, they walked into the villa's kitchen.

The moment he came out and saw the empty villa, Huang Ase finally felt relieved. He almost couldn't wait to take a deep breath of fresh air as he told Kanna everything that had just happened, as if he was complaining to her about Kanna.

Kanai listened without saying a word. Her expression gradually became serious.

"Are you sure that Nana Nishimura mentioned the 'Black Awn Tower' just now?"

After receiving Huang Se's affirmation, she became more and more suspicious.

When she was young, she had heard Shiyin mention the Black Awn Tower. It was a tower that sat in a different world. A terrifying monster group was stationed there. At that time, the Black Awn Tower's master coveted Wusen's power. Therefore, it caused a fight between the Shinto and the Black Awn Tower. In the end, it was Uncle Ryōshou who developed the absolute realm and was able to repel the Black Awn Tower.

The Black Awn Tower's master went missing. The Black Awn Tower that had lost its power turned into ruins. The monsters also left.

Since then, the Black Awn Tower no longer existed in the human and demon world.

"But … why now —"

Before Kanna Hyuga could finish her sentence, the villa's floor suddenly shook. It was as if something was stirring.

Countless ghouls appeared out of nowhere. They howled unconsciously and rushed towards the kitchen while drooling. They did not even look at Huang Se and Kanai.

"Not good!

Nana Nishimura will be silenced — "

Kanna Hyuga made a prompt decision. "Red Leaf, bring Virgin and Huang Se to a safe place first. I will go and take a look at the situation —"

Kanna didn't even give them time to object. She spun around and headed straight for the Zombie Demons. Her light blue barrier became as thin as a needle and spread out in all directions. It resembled a blooming flower that froze several dozen Zombie Demons in place.

"Star Fire — Break!"

She whispered a few incantations. In an instant, there was a burst of yellow light. A few red flames quickly landed on the ghouls' bodies and spread rapidly. Soon, the ghouls were drowned in the flames. The entire room was filled with the ghouls' painful screams.

"Little Hyuga!"

Huang Se only had time to call out Kanai's name. He saw the snow-white witch like a sharp snow-white blade cutting through the evil aura of the ghouls and entering the secret room again.

In the flames, Nana Nishimura's cries for help could be faintly heard from the secret room that was smashed open.

For that kind of person, to save that kind of person —!

Huang Se's pupils shrank as he recalled the dream from that day.

Kanna Hyuga's disappearing figure slowly overlapped with the witch in the dream. Huang Se, whose clothes were grabbed by Red Leaf and flew away from the villa, could only watch as he got further and further away from Kanai. He could not help but smile bitterly.

"So … it really was a precognitive dream."

But … why did you save that kind of person?

What do they have that's worth saving?!

An indescribable melancholy lingered in his heart. Huang Se finally could not help but speak his mind.

"… because she is Kanna Hyuga."

Red Leaf frowned, her tone indescribably complicated. "Because she is the witch of the Sunset Shrine, not the Grim Reaper."
