Chiba s.h.i.+ori was delighted. She did not expect that Kimura Kazuki would take her with him in investigating such a supernatural incident.

However, after watching the white pigeon with the size of a thumb taking flight quickly, her happy face solidified. She smiled bitterly and said, “I can"t run…”

She had an exceptional understanding of her own body"s capacity in terms of athletic ability and physical strength.

Kimura Kazuki smiled, “It doesn"t matter. We don"t have to chase the pigeon, I am connected to it spiritually.”

Upon hearing that, Chiba s.h.i.+ori rejoiced secretly. This should be the first time that Kimura Kazuki took the initiative in letting her partic.i.p.ate in these kinds of supernatural events. This should be a visible sign that her status was becoming better and better in his mind.

However, Chiba s.h.i.+ori knew that she had to be more reserved. She was also brilliant and able to figure things out very quickly, “This will not be very dangerous, right?”

Kimura Kazuki nodded, “That"s right.”

To be honest, he did not want to push things. He wanted to wait for Takes.h.i.+ Rena to call him for help when she realized that there was something wrong with her brother. He did leave behind his contact number for her during that time.

However, her brother had started to hurt people.

Although the little ghost was not capable of injuring anyone, it had led to Ayumi Murakami falling down by accident, caused intentionally by the little ghost, of course. Maybe it would not hurt for an adult to fall, though it might be embarra.s.sing. However, there would undoubtedly be injuries to the human body if a person kept falling down. Besides, who could guarantee that things would not get more and more serious? What if there was something sharp when she fell? Won"t she be dead by then?

Besides, Ayumi Murakami mentioned that there was some kind of noise in her house every night. She did not bother about it that much because she was a bit insensitive.

This kind of torture, both physically and mentally, made Kimura Kazuki feel hostile toward Takes.h.i.+ Yuta.

Of course, it might not be Takes.h.i.+ Yuta who had done these things. It was just the probability of things that showed him that it was Takes.h.i.+ Yuta who did those things. Standing on Ayumi Murakami"s point of view, being on the end of getting threatened was absolutely ridiculous when all she did was give Takes.h.i.+ Rena a scolding.

However, judging from the strength of Takes.h.i.+ Rena"s ghost face warrior, Takes.h.i.+ Yuta"s strength would obviously not be too strong, which was why he was willing to take Chiba s.h.i.+ori with him. Although it might be better not to bring her, Chiba s.h.i.+ori did help him to complete Yuriko Kawachi"s obsessiveness. Also, she was interested in supernatural events, satisfying her curiosity would not be a harmful thing.

Besides, he was strong enough to protect Chiba s.h.i.+ori.

However, it would be better for her to have the ability to protect herself if she planned to deal with incidents like these in the future.

While thinking, Kimura Kazuki took Chiba s.h.i.+ori, who was excited and got on the train while he was thinking about the pigeon"s movements.

Soon, the two of them reached Bantsuki Town in Yukita District, an ordinary residential area.

They soon reached their destination. Looking at the small plate with the words ‘Takes.h.i.+" on the door, they lifted their heads and paused.

“Is this… the Tengu?” Chiba s.h.i.+ori held her breath as she stared at the demon on the roof. Her voice was low and filled with shock.

The demon presented in front of Chiba s.h.i.+ori shocked her as the demon on the roof was obviously no man. It had two enormous black wings, the armor of a samurai, a samurai sword sheathed by its waist, and wooden slippers on its feet. The Tengu was staring at the round moon in the starry night sky, holding a moon-shaped fan in its hand. It had a sense of arrogance just by looking at it.

As a j.a.panese, as brave as she was, Chiba s.h.i.+ori could not help but be worried. She said in a small voice, “Kimura… Let"s go for now.”

She knew that she could not help in fighting. She would only be a burden for Kimura Kazuki if she stayed. Besides, the Tengu was embedded in the hearts of the j.a.panese. Together with the Shuten-dōji and Tamamo no Mae, they were named as the Three Greatest Demons of j.a.pan.

That was apparently enough to show how strong the Tengu must be. She did not wish for Kazuki to face the Tengu at all.

However, Kimura Kazuki only smiled, “Don"t you think that the Tengu looks weird?””Weird?” Kimura Kazuki"s calm tone seemed to influence Chiba s.h.i.+ori. She looked up at the Tengu again. She was dumbfounded this time when she got a better look, “Why does this Tengu have a human face?”

The Tengu from the legends had tall red noses, but the Tengu in front of them looked delicate, like a gentleman.

Not just that, the armor that it was wearing was too glamorous. It was the same for the samurai sword if taken a closer look.

She became silent.

This was different from the legends. If she must describe it, then the Tengu in front of them was more like an urban art drawn by an artist according to his own creativity.

The two of them attracted attention during their time observing. Of course, not that of the neighbors, but of the demons. Especially Takes.h.i.+ Yuta himself.

Since Takes.h.i.+ Rena was residing in Chiyoda District and their father had left for work recently, Takes.h.i.+ Yuta was the only person occupying the house. He already noticed Chiba s.h.i.+ori and Kimura Kazuki while they were lingering outside.

“Young master, there are two scouts outside, should we capture them?” Yuki-onna, who was in white, looked pretty, and her hair was moving with the breeze. He was attracted, but after seeing the blankness in her eyes, he sighed and suppressed his impulses.

He sat in front of the computer and said curiously, “Are you sure that they are scouting our place?” It was a fact that the ghosts in the house could not be seen by ordinary humans unless they showed themselves.

“Yes.” Yuki-onna nodded, “They have been staring at the Tengu for a long time now.”

“Invite them in.” He waved his hand, knowing that if the two individuals found this place and saw the Tengu, they must not be ordinary. Besides, ever since he obtained the object, he had felt that the world was not as boring, it seems. However, as an otaku, he only stayed home because he was used to being alone at home.

When Yuki-onna opened the door, Chiba s.h.i.+ori was shocked. She had the obvious characteristics, so there was no need for her to try to even identify it, “Yuki-onna?”

“Dear guests, young master invites you for a chat inside.”

Young master? Kimura Kazuki chuckled soundlessly. She was clearly talking about Takes.h.i.+ Yuta. However, Chiba s.h.i.+ori held his hand and backed up a little. She looked at him and shook her head lightly.

“There"s no need to worry.” He felt a little uncomfortable having his hand held by a girl, but he still rea.s.sured her by patting her hands.

They were soon brought to Takes.h.i.+ Yuta"s bedroom…

In the meantime, Kimura Kazuki sensed that there were more than a hundred ghosts in the two-story house. He was surprised and thought of a term, Hyakki Yagyō.

He met Takes.h.i.+ Yuta in the bedroom.

However, Takes.h.i.+ Yuta diverted his attention to Chiba s.h.i.+ori in only a moment.

Kimura Kazuki simply looked at him. Takes.h.i.+ Yuta"s will could not be that strong since he got distracted easily by beauty.

Besides, he must be an ordinary person since he sensed no strength from him.

His guesses should be correct.
