Chapter 339 Offline Witch
A cold wind came from nowhere, blowing the branches above my head, shaking the leaves, making a rustling sound.

A dark cloud covered the sun, and a shadow loomed over Kagura's head, just like his inner reflection at the moment.

Mizuno Yuna?

That, the shrine maiden who disappeared thirty years ago?

She looks so young, not at all like the 19-year-old girl she was thirty years old thirty years ago. Instead, she looks like a 19-year-old girl now.

What exactly is going on.

"Hey, don't look so scary. I'm not a bad person. Uh, how old are you?"

".Seventeen."

"So I am the elder sister, you guessed it right!"

The witch clapped her hands to herself, smiling smugly, looking inexplicably silly.

If she was trying to deceive others with her smile, then Kagura Hikaru obviously didn't fall for it.

Not only did he become more cautious in his heart, but he also tentatively threw a mind-reading spell at her.

Regardless of whether it is a human or a ghost, since it has the ability to think, it should have a "heart" that can be read.

However, the truth was not that simple. Kagura Hikaru's ability passed through the girl who called herself "Mizuno Yuna".

It was as if there had never been a human figure there in the first place. It disappeared into the air, silently becoming ineffective without any echo.

Kagura Hikaru was silent again.

This is the first time that I have used my ability but cannot read any of my thoughts.

He realized belatedly that his sense of smell that could distinguish truth from lies seemed to have failed, and he was unable to make a judgment on the witch's words.

Does this mean that the 'person' in front of me is not really a person?

"Hey, did you just do something to me?" The witch said in surprise, and touched her chest thoughtfully, "Right here, there seems to be something. A mental attack?"

"."

Not good.

Kagura Hikaru broke out in a cold sweat. He never expected that mind reading could be detected. Even Komori Ai couldn't do that.

If this was considered a hostile act, it would be the end of him. He had no confidence that he could defeat a ghost. No, after lurking there for thirty years, it might have turned into a fierce ghost!

"Hey, was it my brother who did that just now? Are you a person with super powers? The kind that can use super powers as described in comics!"

The shrine maiden struck a very embarrassing pose, a bit like Kamehameha, and let out a "Hah——!" sound.

Well, how should I say it?
Kagura Hikaru has already sensed that this guy seems a little out of touch.

Come to think of it, were people already watching Dragon Ball thirty years ago?

Suddenly, he felt that his previous nervousness was like a battle of wits with the air. Kagura Hikaru gave up his alert posture and sighed.

"Ms. Miko, you said your name is Mizuno Yuna?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?" the witch asked curiously.

"Do you know what year it is?"

"Eh?"

The witch was dumbfounded, then she held her stomach and burst into laughter, "Hahaha. Brother, you don't think I'm the kind of vengeful spirit that doesn't even know it's dead, do you? No, no, if you insist, I'm an earthbound spirit - the kind that has reason and won't bite people, unlike the Chinese zombies!"

Zombies?

That’s right, when talking about monsters that bite people, modern people would probably say "zombies", but in Mizuno Yuna’s time, Hong Kong zombie movies were probably more popular.

"I know that I'm dead. Even though my grades were not good when I was in school, I'm not so stupid that I can't even notice this."

Mizuno Yuna looked at the dilapidated shrine behind her with a nostalgic look in her eyes, "Unconsciously, a hundred years have passed." "No, only thirty years."

"Eh?"

Kagura Hikari squinted her eyes and looked at the dumbfounded miko.

“Ahahahahaha, I see, so that’s how it is. Hmm, so that’s how it is. It seems that becoming a ghost still has some effects on the brain, hmm.”

The witch looked away inconspicuously, scratched the back of her head, pursed her lips and twisted them like a caterpillar, her face blushing.

This guy is really an idiot.

"It's the first time I see a natural fool in real life. It's so funny! Come on, tease her again! Hehehe!" Komori Ai beside him was also gloating and kept pulling his hand and shaking it.

Unlike him who just thought about it in his mind, this guy said it directly.

"You actually said it out loud! That's too much!" The witch protested with her eyes wide open.

Hmm, is that really what you think?

Wait a moment.

"Can you see her?" Kagura Hikaru asked, pointing at Komori Ai.

The witch was very confused: "Huh? Isn't this natural? There's nothing wrong with my eyesight. By the way, this little sister is really pretty. Is she your relative?"

He looked at Komori Ai and found that although she had a smile on her face, there was a hint of surprise between her brows.

Not only is mind reading ineffective against this ghost, but even Komori Ai's 'lies' cannot deceive her.

So, it turns out that he is not a superpower person with some special abilities, but a real ghost.

It was not until this moment that Kagura Hikaru truly believed this.

Over the years, he has encountered more than one or two extraordinary events, such as awakening his past life memories, gaining the ability to read minds, and meeting Komori Ai.

But this is the first time for Ghost.

Perhaps it was a premonition brought by his subconscious mind, Kagura Hikaru suddenly recalled the fortune teller with a strange temperament whom he met at the bridge on the night of his mother's wedding not long ago.

The mind reader extracted a skill from her that he had never seen before, called "clairvoyance".

At first, Kagura Hikaru thought it was an ability similar to the Yin-Yang Eyes, but after trying for a long time, it turned out to be of no use at all.

Now it seems that maybe it just hasn't encountered the right occasion for it to work.

Kagura Hikaru tried to turn off her clairvoyance ability.

Sure enough, the figure of the witch suddenly disappeared from his sight.

When he opened his spiritual vision again, the figure reappeared, as if it had been there from the beginning.

Kagura Hikaru seemed a little surprised. If he had not stolen this skill that day, he probably would not have seen Mizuno Yuna today.

As for why Komori Ai could see her even though she didn't have psychic vision, Kagura Hikaru actually didn't feel surprised.

Although they say they are of the same kind, there are actually essential differences between him and Komori Ai.

Komori Ai is a genuine psychic, a born extraordinary human being, while Kagura Hikaru was originally just an ordinary person. His special qualities were brought by the golden finger, not inherently his own, so it is not surprising that there are differences between the two.

Just like the ghost in front of her that has been missing for thirty years, Komori Ai is also part of the shadow hidden in this world, but Kagura Hikaru does not intend to delve into it.

Compared to this, he was more curious about the truth of the case.

What exactly happened thirty years ago? Why did the shrine maiden Mizuno Yuna die? And where is the murderer now?

All of these can be answered for him by Mizuno Yuna herself.
