Soichiro Yagami forced a smile.
"Well...but the content of this video may seem a little weird to you, and I can't guarantee its authenticity..."
"Oh, don't take it to heart."
The director of Kyoto TV waved his hand and smiled.
"As a media, we are only responsible for conveying the contents of the 'Mask' speech to the public in an absolutely objective manner, neither supporting nor opposing. After all, he is a public figure, and any of his actions can become news. As for the truth or falsity of the content? This is a matter for the public to judge for themselves, and has nothing to do with us."
"Yeah... that's right..."
Soichiro Yagami doesn't like dealing with the media. After all, as the director of the Criminal Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department, he has seen too many unscrupulous reporters.
Some people deliberately set traps with questions, some put pressure on the case when the investigation reaches a bottleneck, and some even secretly take photos of the scene and upload them to the Internet.
Of course, mainstream media like Kyoto TV would not do such a despicable thing.
During the period when Kyoto's crime rate was rising sharply, which was also the time when Soichiro Yagami, the director of the Criminal Bureau, was under the most pressure, Kyoto Television also fulfilled its responsibilities as a media and tried its best to calm the emotions of the citizens.
And this time...
We need the help of Kyoto TV again.
Five minutes later.
"Next, an urgent news."
Due to the sudden heavy rain and inconvenient transportation, almost all residents of Kyoto are still staying at home.
"We received an anonymous courier and after checking, we confirmed that it was a video recorded by a suspected 'masked' person."
Kyoto TV's statement is absolutely flawless.
Why did the video of "Mask"'s speech end up in Soichiro Yagami's hands, and why did he pass it to me?
The director of the TV station is no fool. He has already guessed that Chief Yagami has some unknown connection with "Mask".
But why bother saying it?
Putting aside the identity of the station director...
He himself, like most people in Kyoto, is a supporter of "Mask".
The hero hiding in the dark is working with the director in the open...
Just thinking about it made the hidden middle school soul of this middle-aged director completely burn.
"Hello everyone."
The picture on TV flickered, and changed from the original live broadcast room picture to a pure black mask, and a smiling voice came out.
"I am 'Mask'."
Just hearing this familiar opening line, the citizens who had watched the Sunny Doll Killer incident couldn't help but smile.
Although I don't know what he looks like, and his voice is a bit vague, it's hard to tell...
But this familiar tone certainly seems to be from the "Mask" himself.
"Next, I want to tell you a story."
"It's a story about a twisted being called a god that manipulates the weather, and uses the weather as a threat to make an innocent girl a living sacrifice."
"You can listen to this as a fake story, but in fact, this is real and it's happening."
.........
After five minutes, the video reached the end.
Ye Xing certainly did not reveal the identity of Amano Haruna, but simply told the legendary story of the Sun Girl verbatim.
In the end, he only used the simplest sentence to end it.
"As a 'Mask', I am not a hero."
"But I will never compromise or give in."
"This twisted creature that threatens humanity with weather and calls itself a god must be utterly destroyed."
After the video ended, the screen switched back to the live broadcast room of Kyoto TV.
The host did not speak, as if giving the viewers in front of the TV time to think.
And in this silence, almost all the audience had the same thought at this moment.
If there really existed in this world a twisted god who used the weather as a threat to make innocent girls live sacrifices...
Then it should be eliminated.
Whatever the "mask" does must be correct.
The citizens believed in this hero, even if he did not call himself a hero.
In the commercial street, the middle-aged male boss of the shop selling "Masked" figures, after hearing this speech, slammed the table, stood up, and said seriously.
"It's just raining. Are you going to use a young girl as a living sacrifice? What a joke!!!"
"Even if it keeps raining, we must never compromise with a guy like this!"
"What kind of god is threatening the existence of mankind? It's an evil spirit!"
"The Mask will win!"
..........
At the same time, in the divine realm above the clouds.
"Ok?"
The God of Weather, who was resisting Ye Xing's attack, was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then half of his body was cut off by the long sword in the hand of the black Susanoo.
Only this time...
The body of the colorful giant monster did not recover as quickly as before, and the healing speed was obviously much slower.
"This...how is this possible?"
The God of Weather was horrified when he realized that the speed at which his spiritual energy was replenished had slowed down a lot, and his voice was full of disbelief.
"Oh, did it work?"
Seeing the changes in the colorful giant monster, Ye Xing nodded with satisfaction and chuckled.
"It seems that compared to you, a guy who calls himself a god and hates rainy days..."
"Everyone in Kyoto City is still more willing to believe in me as the 'Mask'."

Just as Onimaru Kunitsuna thought, Yexing did have a backup plan.
The birth of the identity of "Mask" and the image he left in the minds of everyone in Sakura Province were all for this moment.
"I guess your power, like the evil spirits, comes from the human heart."
Ye Xing removed his Susanoo, and his eyes, which were bloodshot and overflowing with tears, showed a smile that made the God of Weather feel cold.
"The fear of the weather... no, the fear of the rainstorm, or the longing for the sunny day..."
"I'm too lazy to guess what kind of emotion it is. It's not important."
"What's important is..."
Ye Xing grabbed a small part of the colorful giant monster's body that he had just cut off from the ground with his bare hands, stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation, chewed it twice, and smiled with satisfaction.
"You, a twisted creature hiding in a dark corner, have now become a villain in the eyes of almost everyone in Kyoto."
"My support for 'Mask' has overshadowed all my feelings towards you, the so-called god."
"Rainy day? Sunny day? No one cares anymore."
"Everyone in Kyoto City just wants to see 'Masked' win."
The God of Weather transformed into a colorful giant and felt that his spiritual power was replenishing much slower. Although he didn't know how Ye Xing cut off his source of power, he still responded immediately.
The rain snake that was fighting with Tamamonomae and the golden goat head, as well as the huge whale swimming in the clouds, suddenly turned into water drops and disintegrated.
The height of the giant with colorful light suddenly dropped a lot, remaining at about two meters and five.
"ridiculous."
Twisting, wriggling, and constantly changing human faces appeared on the body of the God of Weather. The spiritual light around him no longer had the magnificent beauty it had before. Instead, the extremely sticky rainbow color made people feel a little sick.
There was a dazzling light flashing in his eyes, like lightning.
"You want to compete with a god like me in spiritual power? That's ridiculous."
A white smiling face with upturned corners of the mouth appeared on Yexing's black mask. He put his hands together, made a circle, and aimed at the God of Weather in front of him.
Just when Amano Haruna, Tamamonomae, Golden Goat Head, Onimaru Kunitsuna and others thought that he was about to use some terrifying ability that could harm even gods, they heard Ye Xing speaking at an extremely fast speed.
"I don't understand what you are pretending to be."
"Byd, I have cut off the source of your spiritual power, but you are still pretending to be here. Just wait and see whether I kill your whole family or not."
"After I eat you, I will go back and uproot your shrine. I will also ask the Metropolitan Police Department to ban the spread of the legend of the b sunny girl."
"A poor stinky dog who uses the rooftop of an abandoned building as a shrine and is even worse than a golden goat head, what are you doing here?"
"Ok?"
"Byd, speak!"
Not only Amano Haruna and others, but even the God of Weather didn't know how to respond for a moment after this sudden attack.
The moves Ye Xing performed were indeed very powerful.
While Amano Haruna was speechless about his abstraction, she also had to admire Ye Xing's extraordinary talent in breaking down defenses with words.
When people quarrel, it is easy to hurt the other party. After all, everyone has pain points.
For example, Futaba Rio doesn't like people commenting on a certain part of her that is so exaggerated that it far exceeds the size of a high school girl.
For example, Yukinoshita Yukino is very competitive and hates hypocritical and flattering relationships.
As for Touma and Sa...
It feels like she is always on the critical point between emotional stability and anger. It is really impossible to tell what emotional state she is in just from her expression.
However, there are definitely some points that you don’t want others to mention.
But the great thing about Nightstar is...
No matter whether it is a human, an evil spirit, or a so-called god...
He can always accurately find the thing that can hurt the other party the most, and use this as a starting point to start a fierce attack.
And obviously, judging from the increasingly ferocious expressions on the faces of the weather gods...
He was indeed broken.
On the one hand, it was because the main source of spiritual power was cut off and he lost his greatest support, which made him extremely panicked.
on the other hand...
What Ye Xing said was so insulting... so insulting to God!
Not even as good as the golden goat head!
In terms of strength, the golden goat head is nothing in front of the God of Weather. It is a weak creature that can be killed at will.
But...after all, they have a real shrine.
Although it has been in disrepair for a long time, although it is covered with dust, although few people go to worship, but...
That is also a genuine shrine.
A famous philosopher once said.
Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.
The behavior of the Weather God is different from that of the Golden Goat Head. Rather than the concept of "God" itself, He gains strength from human beings' desire for sunny days and their negative emotions towards continuous heavy rains.
Although the golden goat head cannot speak, it can understand human language.
Seeing that Ye Xing used himself, who also had the name of a god, to provoke the powerful Weather God, he finally understood why he, who was not as strong as himself now, appeared here.
