Chapter 11 Rout
Consciousness gradually returned, Sugawara Kyoko woke up from a coma, only to feel that her surroundings were extremely hot, and the left and right sides were dazzlingly bright.

After she regained her composure for a while, she realized that it was a heater, and the brightest thing was the fiery red light tube.

Lying on the rush mat tatami, the heater continuously blows hot air to her, the Chihaya and Scarlet hakama on her body have been dried and crumpled.

She turned her head, and her white paws were completely black at this moment, and she could see the yard outside and a small piece of blue sky beside her.

"..."

strange place.

Sugawara Kyoko wanted to get up, but with a slight movement, the soreness all over her body was immediately activated, and she was knocked down to the ground at once.

"Well……"

There was a lot of movement here, and finally caught the attention of another person in the room.

"It's a good thing you're awake, otherwise I'd start wondering if it would be better to call an ambulance directly."

The voice came from the direction above the head, Sugawara Kyoko raised his head with difficulty, and immediately frowned after seeing the other party's face clearly.

"..."

They have nothing to do with each other, but they met one after another during this time, and she also began to wonder if he had been following her all along.

Soya was not surprised by her reaction, if the two exchanged identities, he would probably have the same attitude.

"Miss Sugawara."

All he cares about now is, "What happened last night?"

"..."

Even though she was sore all over, Sugawara Kyoko sat up forcefully, looked around again, and answered questions with questions.

"This is where?"

"The Kirino family who run an izakaya."

The spacious old house of the Kirino family is rare in the vicinity. If she is a local, Soya believes that she should have some impressions.

"I found you in the bushes in the yard."

"yes."

Sugawara Kyoko recalled what happened before she fell into a coma. She seemed to have escaped here by herself in the snowstorm.

"Did you save me, thank you."

"You're welcome. What the hell happened last night?"

"What time is it now?"

"It's almost noon."

Soya pointed to the glowing heater, "I moved you here and found these things, less than half an hour has passed."

"Really? Thanks."

Looking around the unfamiliar Japanese room and seeing middle school textbooks on the table in front of him, Kyoko Sugawara was surprised, but said nothing.

"Miss Sugawara, what happened last night?"

"Thank you for your rescue. It's time for me to go back. If I have a chance, I will repay you."

She still avoided answering, but soon realized that in this physical state, it was simply impossible to stand up.

After several failed attempts, Kyoko Sugawara sat down again and looked outside silently.

"..."

She couldn't crawl out of here in front of him.

The sun shone in the courtyard, and there was almost no snow left on the wooden fence, and a lot of snow had melted underneath, exposing the muddy ground.

"That, Mr. Kirino..."

Soya was still sitting in front of the low table, flipping through his notes with his head bowed, his gaze slowly sweeping over Akane Kirino's beautiful handwriting.

"..."

Sugawara Kyoko bit her lip.

Of course he wasn't suddenly deaf, it was just a response to her deafness just now.

"Mr. Kirino, can you lend me your phone?"

Soya turned another page, but there was still no response.

He is not "Mr. Kirino".

"..."

She immediately decided not to make the third attempt, and waited for her body to slowly recover, and then figured out a way to get out of here.

And this wait is half an hour.

goo—

"..."

Zonggu finally looked up, she was sitting on the rush mat with her back to him, still unable to stand up, only her ears were red.

He put down his pen and sighed silently.

So serious and stubborn.

"Miss Sugawara, would you like some dessert?"

"..."

Her figure was slightly shaken, "No need."

Soya pretended not to hear, got up and left the living room.

Hearing the movement, Kyoko Sugawara looked back and tried to get up again.

"pain……"

Not to mention the failure, the shriveled belly rang again.

goo—

From participating in the operation last night to now, she has not eaten for almost a day and a night...

Being unable to stand up is more like a vicious circle of pain and hunger.

"..."

Hearing footsteps in the corridor, she turned around again.

pat.

Something seemed to be placed on the table behind her.

"Just some simple wagashi."

This was the snack brought by Akane Kirino a few days ago. Soya ate a few pieces, but then forgot, "If Miss Sugawara doesn't mind, just eat some."

She turned her head, and there was a plate of dumpling and daifuku on the table, exquisite in style, and beside it was a cup of hot tea with white smoke curling up.

goo—

"..."

Sugawara Kyoko didn't realize that she stared at it for a long time before looking away, and Soya had been waiting for a long time.

The two looked at each other, and he spread his hand to invite again, "Please don't be polite."

This is not charity, and I didn't ask for it, it's just an ordinary hospitality.

"……thanks."

After convincing herself, she moved to the low table with some difficulty and picked up the snacks.

"I'm gonna start now……"

She didn't know whether it was the dim sum itself that was of superior quality, or whether hunger was secretly beautifying it, but she just felt that the dumpling in her hand was more delicious than any dim sum she had ever eaten.

Seeing Sugawara Kyoko eating four or five dumplings in a row without saying a word, just as Soya was about to remind her to slow down, she choked.

"Cough...cough cough!"

The hot tea was boiling hot, so he got up and went to the kitchen to make a cup of warm water, and handed it to her.

"Cough...thank you...cough cough!"

She felt better after drinking half a glass of water.

"I see……"

Doubt squeezed away the gratitude that just popped up in her heart, Sugawara Kyoko raised her eyes, and Soya who was sitting had a complex expression, it was hard to say whether it was disappointment or something else.

"You guys are defeated."

From Mt. Hiei in the west to Mt. Suzuka in the east, and Mt. Shigaraku and Mt. Nosaka in the north and south respectively, countless daughters of the underworld and the underworld army formed an invisible net, slowly oppressing from all around, forcing the hunting target to To the center of Lake Biwa.

Priests and priestesses from various shrines in Kinki also gathered in the center of this large net.One reason is that the shrine can only cooperate with these natural spirit bodies, and the second reason is that these spirit removers can't keep up with their speed.

The pressure came from all directions. After escaping from the underworld, the evil spirit, which had been hiding for more than a month, finally had nowhere to escape and appeared near Lake Biwa.

Then, the army of Huang Quan that covered the sky and the sun was wiped out with a roar, and turned into invisible gray snow on the shore of Lake Biwa.

As for the exorcism team composed of priests and witches...

"..."

Kyoko Sugawara paused for a moment before realizing that Soya, who was sitting across from her, used extremely accurate words, and there really was no more appropriate way to say it.

"...and all of them were defeated."

"Is anyone dead?"

She pursed her lips, "I don't know."

"yes."

Sogu just asked casually, except for digging out the witch in front of him from the snow, he didn't have much substantive concern for the psychics;

In return, she described the complete appearance of the matter to him—even though she didn't know it herself, the result from his mouth was just a bold guess.

"Mr. Kirino..."

"—My surname is Soya, and I just lived in Kirino's house for a while. Yoshiaki Soya."

"Sorry, Mr. Soya."

Kyoko Sugawara sat up straight, "Forgive me, Mr. Soya, as an ordinary person, why does he know so much about our affairs?"

Whether she is a shrine maiden who belongs to the shrine—look at the Tsurumatsumon Chihaya she is wearing, or is she a purer professional shrine maiden than ordinary part-time shrine maidens—there is an essential difference from Akane Kirino, Soya has not told her the truth for the time being Intend.

"I have my own path."

"yes."

Sugawara Kyoko didn't ask further, but took Kirino Akane, who he had met and invited before, as one of the ways in his mouth.

The difference in spiritual perception leads to a natural gap between them and ordinary people.

How to describe the colorful world to a born blind person?
But there is always someone who can get a glimpse of it from a few words.

In her opinion, Soya might be the best of them, even though he was just a... middle school student who looked about her age.

"..."

The witch sitting across from him glanced at him from time to time, her expression still a little sluggish.Zongya didn't know what she was thinking, and he didn't care at this moment, he was still digesting the shocking facts she just said.

As a result, his wish has come true: the daughter of Huangquan and the army of Huangquan wandering in the Kinki region no longer exist.

However, the actual situation is not that they returned to the underworld, but were directly wiped out—all of them were blown into fly ash by that fierce spirit.

Where did this peerless ominous spirit come from...

Soya had a headache.

What's more troublesome is that the forces from the underworld don't know what giving up is, and the lost troops will be continuously replenished.

It won't be long before the shore of Lake Piwa will become a kingdom of ghosts in the world where the army of the underworld is rampant.
