Facing her doubts, Luo Shu raised the corners of his mouth little by little, revealing a kind smile and said:
“With your current abilities, it shouldn’t be difficult to make him a puppet, right?
9 "
"It's a good opportunity to practice your skills with someone, isn't it?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha seemed to be thinking about what she said, and then she also showed a kind smile:
“I haven’t tried it, but I’d love to give it a try.”
Chapter 83 Are You Sure? (3/3)
In a forest in Adachi District, Toudou.
Sharon, who had been kneeling on the rotten leaves praying for a long time, moved her ears slightly as if she heard some sound from the sky.
"Chiba Prefecture...Boso Peninsula...karst cave."
"Transactions.....failed and captured.....to ensure security."
Accompanied by low murmurs, Sharon, who understood the situation clearly, immediately stood up from the pile of rotten leaves with an expressionless face. The white stockings on her legs were not stained with any dust in the process.
Only after she stood up did Sharon's mouth curl up slightly:
"It took you 20 minutes to get a reply? It seems that my god is not in good condition~"
Sharon had her own guess about Luo Shu's condition.
But for her, speculation is speculation, and practicing the will of the gods is the principle she must follow.
This is the duty and mission of the 'holy girl'.
With this thought in mind, Sharon took a step forward, jumped onto the treetop, looked up at the sun in the sky, and after determining her direction, her figure disappeared into the forest.
at the same time.
A teahouse behind Meiji Shrine in Shibuya, Toudou.
Nangong Nayue, who was wearing a black corseted Gothic skirt and looked out of place among the priests around her, was sitting in her seat with a stack of paper documents in her hand.
These documents are a summary of the Onmyoji's recent intelligence regarding the Sharon incident.
The first part of this report details the causes and consequences of Sharon's entry, while the second part focuses on all the information about the defected demon warlock Zhenli Tianwen and gives corresponding speculations.
Nangong Nayue retained 70% of her trust in the information that had been confirmed by the Onmyoji Bureau through various means.
After a while, Nangong Nayue finished reading the report, put down the documents in her hand, and then looked down at the old men in priest uniforms in front of her:
"According to the information you have compiled, it is highly suspected that a demon of unknown level has appeared in the island country, and it may even have been sealed. "Are you sure of the authenticity of this information?"
After hearing Nangong Nayue's words, an old priest with obvious nasolabial folds and white hair bowed and said:
"Reporting to the Southern Palace, according to the results of divination, it should be confirmed now."
Nangong Palace refers to the moon pointing to the South Palace.
In the Onmyoji Bureau, among the national-level sorcerers, only a very small number of people who are considered to be the "contemporary great Onmyoji" are given the title of "Palace" after their surnames.
Although Nangong Nayue didn't care, the Onmyoji Bureau did classify her as a great Onmyoji. Because the various mystical knowledge that she intentionally spread had begun to spread, many old-school Onmyojis even regarded her as the contemporary "Abe Haruaki".
Of course, such a title seemed very ridiculous to Nangong Layue.
With her accuracy, even though she was one of the world's top magicians in the world she was born in, she was not worthy of the title of being the one who dominated the world.
But it happened that after coming to this world where knowledge of the occult was scarce, he revised some teaching materials simply because he did not want the students of the Onmyoji Ryo to die due to their ignorance of the occult, and as a result he was promoted to the high position of 'Great Onmyoji'.
Although Nangong Nayue also knew that this was one of the means by which the Onmyoji Bureau bound her, she had to admit that this kind of flattery was indeed very intoxicating.
"I feel like a modern person who got a script of traveling to an ancient other world... Really, why do I have to go through this?"
Although she thought so, Nangong Nayue still had some unspeakable expectations in her heart.
If it were in this world... in this world where the power of mysticism has only appeared for a few decades... her unrealistic wish... the wish for all races to coexist peacefully... perhaps it could really come true?
Shaking her head, Nangong Nayue immediately threw away the messy thoughts from her head.
"Nangong Palace?" The old priests in the lower ranks asked hesitantly.
"Nothing." Nangong Nayue casually ignored the topic, and then said: "The family involved is the 'Yakushiji Family'? Has it been confirmed?"
"Yes." The old priest who spoke earlier said in a neutral tone: "It's just that we can't determine whether it is an individual behavior of the Yakushiji family or a collective behavior. However, according to the statistician's speculation, it is very likely a collective behavior.
Nangong Nayue didn't even bother to listen to the second half of the old priest's words, because she knew it was full of subjective conjectures.
In the final analysis, although the Onmyoji and the priests' families had status in the past, they were still much weaker than the chaebols. In many cases in the past, the priests' families were simply the 'spouse suppliers' of the chaebols.
The chaebols and even the royal family have money and power but lack reputation and prestige, while the priest families who lack money and power but have a high reputation cater to their wishes. Nangong Nayue was too lazy to even mention the trivial matters of the two sides colluding with each other.
The current situation is nothing more than that in recent decades, due to the coming of the abyss, the status of the priest family has been elevated, and many people think that their position is not worthy of their virtue, and they want to challenge the social system designated by the chaebol.
The Yakushiji family, as a long-established arms dealer in East Asia, was not as good as the American chaebols, but just slightly better than the priest family. Naturally, it became one of the most suitable targets.
Nangong Nayue was absolutely certain that the document in her hand must have contained a lot of negative information about Yakushiji, which was why she had only 7% trust in the intelligence before.
Of course, no matter what else there is, at least someone in the Yakushiji family has set their sights on the power of the devil. This must be true, otherwise, these priests would not come to her to "add insult to injury."
After all, if you want to kick someone when he's down, you need to have a well first.
Thinking of this, Nangong Nayue lowered her head (Wang Le Zhao), looking at the report she had placed on the table, and the photos of the members of the Yakushiji family highlighted in red on it, she couldn't help but laugh at herself:
No matter when, humans always have unrealistic "yearning" for demons~ton"
Muttering to herself, Nangong Nayue picked up the document again, stood up, looked around at everyone with a cold tone, and said:
"I'll take care of the demons, that's all."
As soon as the words fell, Nangong Nayue's figure disappeared in the tea room, leaving only the old priest looking at her with a subtle expression.
The rooftop of Toyosaki Academy, after the morning break.
Luo Shu, who was called by Iine, looked at the document handed over by Nangong Nayue in astonishment and said in surprise:
"What did you say? Let SDS go to Chiba to deal with the demon seal?"
"you sure?"
Chapter 84 You are wrong!
Looking at the documents in his hand, Luo Shu just wondered if his lucky passive ability had gone in the wrong direction?
Otherwise, why was he still telling Kasumigaoka Utaha "not to get involved in this matter" in the morning, but was asked to do so by Nangong Nayue at noon?
Isn't this scientific?
Thinking of this, Luo Shu turned his head and looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri who were sitting on the bench nearby.
Noticing Luo Shu's gaze, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had a lunchbox on her knees, lifted her hair and said with a wicked smile:
"Is it not okay to just watch the fun?"
"Tsk." Luo Shu couldn't help but smack his lips.
At this time, Nangong Nayue couldn't stop tapping her shoulders with the black silk folding fan in her hand, and she also said with a sigh:
"Do you think I want to give this kind of work to that woman Tachibana Kirika?"
"Isn't it that considering the situation, we have no choice but to choose her SDS?"
"Also, it's just a document, but you have such a big opinion about it. At least show some respect to your teacher!"
Hearing Nangong Nayue say this, Luo Shu looked down at the document in his hand, his mouth twitched and he said:
"Is there any difference between asking me to hand this over to Chief Tachibana and asking me to go out and handle this matter?"
He is also a man of honor! 627 Miss Shiyu is still watching!
"Huh?" Nangong Nayue tilted her head, looked at Luo Shu with a rather strange expression and said, "Do you think you will be sent out to deal with this matter?
At this point, Nangong Nayue smiled and looked at Luo Shu with interest:
"I never thought that you, a man who looks quite responsible, are actually a seasoned veteran~"
Nangong Nayue seemed to have seen something familiar and said happily:
"Don't worry. When it comes to things like demons, it's impossible for a rookie like you to be dispatched. Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing would probably be sent out by the young lady above your head."
"Of course, you will probably be assigned to conduct reconnaissance on the periphery and earn a generous bonus."
Because of Luo Shu's slacking behavior, Nangong Nayue thought of the younger generations in her original world who were firewood thieves, so she subconsciously gave him a few more instructions:
"Although this is a low-risk outpost, I suggest you work with Tachibana Kirika. Although that woman is too self-willed, she has always had good luck."
But the reason why Director Tachibana is so lucky is in my hands now. (aeac) Luo Shu sighed in his heart, but still acquiesced to accepting the delivery of the letter.
This is certainly not because Luo Shu is curious about the specific amount of the generous bonus. He, Luo Shu, is a man of integrity. He never cares about money - he is just a money carrier.
Luo Shu picked up the bag that contained his lunch from the bench nearby, casually put the documents in it, and then said:
"Speaking of which, I'm actually quite curious about one thing."
Nangong Nayue raised her eyebrows when she heard this:
“You ask.
Seeing Nangong Nayue say this, Luo Shu immediately asked:
"Why did you choose to leave the task of dealing with demons to SDS?"
Hearing the voice, Nangong Nayue looked at Luo Shu deeply, as if she was looking at something strange.
Just when Luo Shu felt that he had said something wrong, Nangong Nayue said:
“The reason for choosing to let SDS handle it is simple.”
"Because only your organization is likely not to use demons to gain improper benefits."
What the hell? Luo Shu was confused after hearing this.
What does it mean that only SDS can capture demons and won’t use them to do bad things?
However, Nangong Nayue had no intention of explaining. Instead, she turned around and walked towards the stairs, and said with her back to Luo Shu:
"Today's afternoon classes are cancelled. I will ask for leave for you. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are weekends. Two and a half days is enough to solve the problem with your efficiency."
At this point, Nangong Nayue turned her head slightly, looked back at Luo Shu and said:
"If Tachibana Kirika asks where I will be these days, just tell her that I am advocating for SDS funding."
"Thanks to her boast about the Sharon incident, your department's funding is expected to increase by at least 30%."
"In return for passing on the message, remember to apply for a pay raise. Any increase within half of that should be approved."
After saying this, Nangong Nayue waved her hand and left Luo Shu's sight.
At that time, Luo Shu looked at Nangong Nayue's back as she disappeared at the stairs, and complained in a low voice:
"Why do you keep reminding me about the money? Am I being that obvious?"
"Haha~"
Hearing the laughter, Luo Shu turned his head and looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha who was laughing softly with her hands covering her mouth, and said unhappily:
"What are you laughing at? I, your master, have been dragged into an incident related to the devil, and you still have the nerve to laugh?"
"Isn't this just right?" Kasumigaoka Utaha pursed her lips and smiled: "It just gives you a reasonable reason to intervene, doesn't it?"
“Besides, you can earn a nice bonus.”
Kasumigaoka Utaha blinked her eyes, and she suddenly realized that Luo Shu's salary seemed to be the pinnacle of the lives of many middle-aged office workers in their forties and fifties. It also happened to exceed that of her old father at home.
With such a reputable job, it seems that even if I bring Luo Shu home in the future, I will be recognized.
Wait, what was I thinking?
Suddenly realizing what she was thinking, Kasumigaoka Utaha blushed, turned around and said to Eriri:
"I'm right, aren't I, Sawamura-kun?"
Utaha Kasumigaoka tried to get away with it by asking Eriri next.
"Ah? What did you say?"
Ying Lili looked up quietly as if she had just woken up from a dream and responded with a dazed look on her face.
