Not far from Weining Office is a famous shrine, which worships the God of Inari. The temple fair is also nearby, and the flow of people is exaggerated.
To be honest, there was a lot of care in choosing this place as the foster mother's office, but in recent years, Qiao Shuya was left alone to waste it.
Today should be the second day of Obon Festival, and it is also the most important Bon Festival day, so it is extremely lively. Small stalls are set up one after another. There are many people and it is very lively. When you see it, almost all men and women are wearing bathrobes.
Qiao Shuya thought of some of the knowledge he had learned in his previous life. The Obon Festival seems to have been passed down from Buddhism in the Sui Dynasty. It is a grand gathering of Buddhism, but it is actually held by a shrine here. It is really novel.
While walking along the way, Qiao Shuya saw a mask shop, which was filled with all kinds of masks, including fox, tanuki, hannya, and masks similar to Ultraman and Kamen Rider.
Doing as the Romans do, Qiao Shuya bought a metal armor mask. It looked like a mecha from a science fiction movie. He liked it very much.
Just walking around in the temple fair, a little girl wearing a kimono bumped into Qiao Shuya when he turned the corner, and the apple candy in her hand rubbed against his clothes.
"Sorry, sorry, I was careless." The little girl apologized hastily, but soon a lady in kimono came over to apologize.
"It's okay, it's okay." Qiao Shuya waved his hand. His wife seemed to want compensation, but Qiao Shuya refused, and instead asked them about the stall selling apple candies.
It is getting late, but at this time the river is brightly lit and there is an endless stream of people.
Qiao Shuya also followed the direction and found the stall. Many children gathered around begging the boss for apple candies.
But when he saw the boss selling apple candy, he was slightly stunned because he knew this boss.
When the group of children dispersed and the boss was busy, Qiao Shuya came over alone: "Inspector Mu Mu, long time no see."
This person was familiar to Qiao Shuya. The chief inspector nearby had an official position such as captain of the police in his previous life. When a strange demon appeared nearby, the chief inspector submitted an application, and it was Qiao Shuya who took the job.
But today, during the Bon Festival, the chief inspector did not go on patrol, but instead came here to set up a stall, which is really rare.
The slightly fatter Memu Patrol also recognized Qiao Shuya and said with a smile: "Qiao Sang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you here to play at the temple fair today? Come and try some apple candy."
With that said, Inspector Memu handed over a piece of apple candy, and then continued to work without stopping.
"I live nearby. If Mu Mu comes here on inspection, are there any clues of strange demons here?" Qiao Shuya asked.
"No way, I just came here to make some extra money." Memu Xangchang smiled innocently, but Qiao Shuya also felt something was wrong.
There's drama!
This inspector general was not the type who was very good at lying, and Qiao Shuya felt that he was lying.
In Qiao Shuya's understanding, the public security and the Watcher Association are completely different. The Watcher Association is similar to the United Nations office in the previous life, but it is mainly responsible for the disasters and order of the local monsters at the station.
Local politics are still the responsibility of the local government, so in many cases the public security and the Watchmen Association have a cooperative relationship, but they also have some competitive relationships.
Thinking of this, Qiao Shuya was no longer sleepy. He immediately thought that the police had discovered the identity of some strange demon, but had not confirmed it. He planned to investigate first and then solve it himself.
His ghost siphon was already thirsty.
"Hey, Inspector Mu Mu, it doesn't matter. Let's do this. I won't report to the association. We will go find the strange demons together. Then the credit will be yours. Just kill the strange demons for me." Qiao Shuya's hands were itchy.
Impatient and eager to fight.
"No, no, no, it's not true, Qiao-san, you misunderstood..." Memu's patrol began to become a little anxious, and his eyes began to wander, as if he was looking for something.
At this time, a little girl wearing a very gorgeous kimono came to the stall and said: "Boss, let me have a bunch of apple candies."
"Okay, okay." Inspector Memu quickly diverted Qiao Shuya's attention and began to take out a bunch of apple candies.
Then, an adult next to the little girl handed over a banknote, and Qiao Shuya discovered that there seemed to be a note sandwiched in the banknote.
There's a ghost!
Qiao Shuya suddenly became more interested.
"Hashi-san, there will be a shrine maiden dance and fireworks at Suga Shrine later. You can go and play first." Inspector Megure continued to wink, seeming to be hinting at Hashishua.
At this time, the man next to the little girl came over and said something. Suddenly the little girl's eyes lit up and she asked Qiao Shuya: "Are you a guest of the Tokyo Watchmen Association?"
"yes."
"Then follow, but let me remind you, this time is not a strange demon incident, but involves a Shinrikyo suspect who escaped from Kyoto and was rated as very dangerous." The little girl put her hands on her hips.
He looks like a little adult, but his serious expression is particularly cute.
"Very dangerous?" Qiao Shuya thought secretly in his heart, but did not show too much expression. Looking at the two people, older and younger, in front of him, they should all be watchers from Kyoto to track down the Shinrikyo.
, but why is it such a combination? Especially in such a dangerous situation with a primary school student.
Kyoto is west of Tokyo and is the 11th ancient capital. It is also known as Heian Kyo. Even now, the "Peace" plaque is still hanging at the entrance of Kyoto. Shuya also knows about these bridges.
"If you are interested in following me, just watch carefully and don't cause any trouble." The little girl said to Qiao Shuya, raising her head slightly, "The B-level watcher of the Kyoto Watcher Association, Minamoto Chiai."
"Guest guest of the Tokyo Watchmen Association, Qiao Shuya." Qiao Shuya stretched out his hand, ready to shake hands, but the little girl turned her head for a moment, as if she didn't see Qiao Shuya's outstretched hand.
The man next to her immediately came up and held Qiao Shuya's hand, saying: "Kyoto Watcher Association B-level watcher, Inukai Kata, I'm really sorry."
Qiao Shuya held hands with him and looked at the little girl who had her arms crossed and seemed to be dismissive. She felt that this guy was too unlovable now, like a little bitch.
"I'm telling you, you can come here, but don't hold us back. The target person is a very cruel guy, just hide behind us." The little girl turned her head, not looking directly at Qiao Shuya.
"I am also a professional watcher, especially in the auxiliary aspect." After hearing that it was very dangerous, Qiao Shuya decided to be cautious and temporarily regarded himself as an auxiliary position. He had just recently obtained the skill of Totem Guard, which allowed him to disguise himself as a watcher.
Professional assistance.
Waiting until the end, he took action to grab the heads and become passive.
These two are B-level Watchers, so they should be very strong people, right? Although Qiao Shuya is a guest of the Watchers Association, he is not very familiar with other Watchers. He has been playing solo for the past two years.
, and it should be the weakest strange demon given by Uncle Li to give him the passive.
Qiao Shuya frowned slightly and silently took a step back.
