I'm a ghost story witch in Tokyo

Chapter 48
"She's really in there."

Yue relayed everything he saw in the shrine to Rui Ji who was on standby through the walkie-talkie.

"That little witch didn't lie to us?"

"No, I can feel the magic power and breath in the Mikoshi Temple, which is the same as the ghost story that tried to lure you to the shrine that day. Because of her reincarnation, she is destined to be trapped in that rectangular box, and she has to be taken away before the ceremony. Get out."

"What should I do now?"

Rui Ji has long been eager to try.

During the standby period, she felt nervous and a little excited, and kept stuffing food and water into her mouth, letting them soothe her restless emotions.

I can somewhat understand people who like to eat in dangerous places. Appropriate food can decompress the body, increase mobility, and produce a burst of substances that are often mentioned-dopamine.

She needs dopamine so much.

"When the sky just darkened, I will send you an action signal, and you will come over immediately. Now I am going to analyze the barriers around the dance hall, and you can rest in place for a while."

Yue's voice is jerky, probably through a period of trotting, dodging shrine visitors or shrine witches.

After confirming the safety of his teammates, Rui Ji needn't be nervous for the time being.

"Understood, I wish Wu Yun prosperity."

After the communication was cut off, Rui Ji continued to finish off the unfinished half of the rice ball, and glanced at the watch under the cuff from time to time.Mrs. Yoshino lent her the watch, and Yue also had one.

It is said to be borrowed, but in fact it is no different from giving.

The classic brand Oriental Twin Lions produced in the Showa era, the Logo is two lions.The silver dial, metal chain, and brass hands look quite old.

Their mobile phones can't work normally in the regional ghost story, only the items in the ghost story can be used normally.It is very important to grasp the correct time point. If you miss [-] o'clock in the evening, your life will be headed towards unforeseen despair, and you will become a ghost story yourself, becoming a whole with Kisaragi Station and Asahina.

That kind of thing must never happen.

Rui Ji tapped the glass cover with his fingertips, staring at the second hand moving step by step.The orange-red sunset color gradually fades, and is invaded and penetrated by deeper dark blue.

The night in the mountains came very early, perhaps because of the fine weather today, the sky was a little brighter than usual.When I first left Kisaragi Station, the entire sky was so dark that it seemed to be collapsing.

The aroma of food from the festival stalls wafted from the mountain path, and some shiny, cylindrical objects of different colors rose from the ground.The witches write their wishes on the light-colored paper of the sky lantern, ignite the solid fuel fixed on the wire rack below, and wait until the lamp body is expanded by the heat generated by the burning, and then let go of its hand to let it rise into the air.

Thousands of townspeople in Asahina Town, together with tourists who came to visit, released thousands of sky lanterns, and the entire sky was illuminated by pale golden flames, which instantly became as bright as day.

The sky lanterns float left and right in the gentle evening wind, like rippling water waves.

The river flowing around the town of Asahina, the surface of the river reflected the picture of thousands of sky lanterns rising into the sky, Rui Ji's gray-blue eyes were dyed a layer of warm gold by the floating lights, and his heart was shocked by the grand festival scene.

If those heart-wrenching tragedies hadn't happened, and there had never been any goddess festivals here, Asahina Town relied on its geographical advantages and surrounding natural and cultural scenery, and with a little development, it would definitely be built into a high-quality witch resort in the future.

The blue sky deepened her sentimental mood. She fell into the vortex of negative emotions and briefly entered a state of wandering thoughts. Her brain was empty and her eyes were out of focus.

A few minutes later, the radio in his hand came with a current tone and a communication reminder.

"Almost forgot……"

After pressing the answer button, there was Yue's slightly dissatisfied voice on the opposite side.

"You are staring at the sky lantern in a daze. If there is no radio, I can't even imagine how long you will be dazed."

"I'm sorry, but... don't you think the picture of thousands of sky lanterns flying into the sky is super beautiful?"

"If you want to see it, why not watch it in the original world? The Tenjin Festival in Osaka, the Kanda Festival in Tokyo, and the Gion Festival in Kyoto are all close at hand. There is no need to worry about a festival in the ghost story. Now I will go to the back of the Asahina Shrine. Wudian is waiting for you. The detailed location has been specially marked, and you can see the traces I left with my magic power when you use the [Omniscient Eye] magic."

"As ordered!"

Rui Ji replied with the tone of a warrior from the Warring States Period, and then cleaned up the food packaging with destruction magic, leaving no trace of himself.Flying on a broom is too conspicuous these days, especially when all eyes are on the sky.

At this time, you have to use the special magic in the biological field-chameleon magic.

The color of a witch who uses chameleon magic will change in real time according to the color of the environment. It is an effect close to the auspicious suit, which is more convenient than the auspicious suit.

In the most classic large-scale witch battle in Japanese history, the Battle of Hazama, the team of the Oda Witch Army used the chameleon magic to hide the breath and traces, and launched an assault on rainy days, chasing the army of the daimyo witch Imagawa Yoshimoto, and finally win.

The figure of the Oda Witch Army is well hidden in the rain, like a ghost.The sound of the rain overshadowed the footsteps of the witches. They were in an absolute advantage and caught the enemy by surprise.

In the past, Rui Ji worked hard to study it, and she could use it with a little memory, saving even the time of studying now.

The lights in the sky, the fireworks and the silver bellflowers covering the mountain together provided the light source, and it was not so dark to climb the Weeping Mountain. After 10 minutes, Rui Ji appeared on the edge of the shrine.

Using [Eye of Omniscience], you can see things that cannot be seen with normal vision, such as the magic barrier set outside the area, and the marks left by magic.

The marking potion used earlier can also be used in conjunction with the all-seeing eye magic.

Before Yue reminded her, she had no memory of this magic at all.

The magic barrier is transparent light green with low strength, and a small area has no color, which has been analyzed and destroyed by Yue, forming a gap for easy passage.

If you don’t open the eyes of omniscience, it is very likely that when you are about to step into the shrine, you will suddenly hit the air wall and fall into the valley. It will take a few minutes to climb up quietly.

Rui Ji's infiltration went smoothly, and Yue bought her a white fox mask in advance.They pretended to be a couple of witches visiting the shrine together, holding each other's arms to hide their eyes and ears, and avoiding some witches passing by with lanterns.

Because they were wearing masks, they couldn't see the expressions on each other's faces, so there was no embarrassment.

The Temple of the Mikoshi is surrounded by a patch of red maple, looking from a distance, it looks like a small palace burned by flames.The painted coffin that encloses Yona Ling Chiyo is parked in the side hall, and the main hall is an area for tourists to visit. At this time, there are only a few witches.

There is a witch in the corridor leading to the side hall, who looks very energetic.

"Go, seduce her, distract her."

Yue took off Rui Ji's mask and pushed her forward.

　This evening, this book was ridiculed by a layman who had never written a book at the starting point, saying that my grades were poor.I was really uncomfortable, but there was nothing I could do. After all, it was the first book in the true sense, and I didn't have any readers.Finally, I hope you can follow up with enthusiasm, thank you.Otherwise, if the grades are too poor, it may not be recommended until it is released on the shelves. What I look forward to for free now is follow-up reading. Without feedback from readers, it will be difficult to persist.
