I, Den-O, Contract Urban Legend

According to the reaction of the jade seal, someone must have snatched the "Demon King's gavel", right?

Although the existence of the demon sword can still be vaguely felt through the connection between "Yamamoto's Brain" and other organs, the pain that has been felt many times is undoubtedly a serious injury...

And it’s not just once or twice, which means someone is trying to destroy the “Demon King’s Gavel”!

But who is the other party?

Recognize it as a Nura-gu youkai?

An Onmyoji who happened to pick up a demon sword while passing by?

After hearing Yamamoto's explanation, Yanagida's expression gradually became serious, and he immediately said: "This is a bit bad. If this is really the case, then we must recover the Demon King's gavel as soon as possible. Although the sword was Destroying it will not endanger Yamamoto-sama's life, but the demon sword that can directly absorb "fear" is definitely a powerful trump card. It would be a pity if it was really destroyed, but..."

After the experimental subject "Hanako" created at a certain time went berserk, the Hyakumonogatari team was seriously injured. Yamamoto's bones, duodenum, right little finger and dough, the four monsters transformed from Yamamoto's body, all died in Natsukawa Hanako's body. On their hands, they excluded the "heart" and "nose" that could not move on their own. In order to avoid her pursuit, they had to destroy the toilet first every time they moved their base.

This is not the point. After that incident, there were only five members left in the group. Among them, Yanagida, who is the "Ear of Yamamoto", is the weakest. He was a weird creature created by Yamamoto using rumors during his lifetime. He was originally named An existence created by a consultant's setting. Now that Jijizo has been wiped out, the whereabouts of the "Demon King's Gavel" are unknown, and there are only three people left with Yamamoto's organs, including their heads, actually alive.

"Yamamoto's Brain" is the hope that Yamamoto Gorozaemon can be completely resurrected, and his strength is not that good, so it is impossible for him to risk going into battle.

"Although Yanagita has a good brain, he is not good at fighting. The other surviving organs do not have the ability to fight a strong enemy head-on. It is too dangerous to let them face an unknown enemy rashly, but leaving the remaining organs alone If I continue to disappear, I will still die..."

As he spoke, "Yamamoto's Brain" gradually gained a hint of fear in his tone.

Looking at Yamamoto who was in fear, Yanagita couldn't help but sigh and comforted: "Please calm down, this idea is a bit too pessimistic. Although the current situation is a bit unfavorable for the Hyakumonogatari team, it is not the time to despair yet! "

"In short, I will go and have a look. If Yuzhang lost the demon sword in the near future, then we only need to look for traces of the demon sword in Shikoku and Chiba..."

Yanagida touched the bell hanging on his left ear. He has the "Yamamoto's Ear". If he wants to find the "Demon King's Gavel" as soon as possible, there is no one else more suitable than him.

Yanagida is more concerned about the death of Jizo than the demon sword. Jizo, who had the ability to hypnotize, has been eliminated. The Hyakumonogatari team has no other suitable people to join the Hagoromo Kitsune. Assisting "Seimei" to resurrect It becomes difficult.

Well, with Hagoromo Fox's current strength, there should be no possibility of failure in the plan, but not being able to see her situation is still a bit troublesome after all.

Chapter 181 I want to go too

"Um, thank you. I feel a little embarrassed to have you take me home every time, Inoue-senpai." Hanakain Yura said a little coyly.

After dinner, Inoue Ueya sent Hanakain Yura home as usual.

"And... I'm really sorry about the hilt."

As a result, Hanakain Yura still failed to destroy the "Demon King's Mallet". It seemed a bit difficult for her to purify it by herself. Maybe when her spiritual power was exhausted, she would be backlashed by the demon sword. According to her According to the theory, the safest way is to send the handle to Hanakaiin's house in Kyoto to perform a complicated ceremony for purification.

After failing to successfully complete Inoue Ueya's commission, Hanakain Yura was actually a little embarrassed. During dinner, his expression did not look as enjoyable as usual. It was as if he had accepted the commission's reward for not completing the work. The same, there is always a feeling of unease in my heart.

"No, I don't think Huakaiyuan should pay too much attention to this matter. After all, you have tried your best, and that is enough."

"But……"

"Really, you've known us for a while, do you still need to be so outspoken?"

Hearing this, Inoue Ueya couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head. The awkward expression on Hanakain Yura's face was so obvious that even he could see it.

Well, now it’s better to change the subject a little bit.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Inoue heard news not long ago that a big monster wanted to attack Kyoto..."

"What?"

Hearing such important news, Hanakain Yura immediately forgot what had just happened and looked up at Ueya Inoue with a slightly shocked expression.

"Will there be monsters actively attacking Kyoto, the headquarters of the Onmyoji?"

Inoue Ueya nodded and responded: "Well, they seem to be trying to break some barrier..."

Hanakain Yura thought for a while. She had indeed heard from people in the family about the gradual weakening of the "seal" in Kyoto, but she did not expect that someone would start preparing to take action at this time.

The big youkai who seizes this moment to do such a thankless thing as attacking Kyoto is probably the big youkai who once ruled all the youkai in Kyoto and the Hanakain family's old enemy "Hagoromo Kitsune", right?

Thinking of this, the two of them just walked to the apartment where Hanakain Yura lived.

Hanakain Yura did not doubt Inoue Ueya's intelligence, bowed to him, and then said: "Thank you, this is very important news. I must go home as soon as possible to contact the family, so I will take my leave now!"

"Well, if you need support, remember to notify Mr. Inoue?"

"I see!"

Saying that, Hanakain Yuro turned around and ran towards the apartment, his face full of anxiety.

Inoue Ueye also watched her walk into the apartment and nodded secretly. He told the Hanakaiin family about the Hagoromo Fox in advance. Those prepared Onmyojis should be different from the original situation, right?

However, in my impression, those seal guardians in Kyoto, Hagoromo Kitsune directly used their strength to crush them...

"Well, nothing will happen, right?" Inoue Ueya hesitated.

Although Inoue Ueya wanted to leave for Kyoto immediately, the troublemaker of Tojizo was killed by Hanako, and the whereabouts of the Hagoromo Fox were unknown. It was not appropriate to take action now. If he caused too much noise in Kyoto, he said It might make the big monster change his original action strategy, and then his "future vision", which was already a bit unreliable, would probably be completely abolished.

Running away is only a trivial matter. The problem is that Inoue Ueya has no way of knowing when the other party will come back...

Just in case, this time it’s better to ask Sadako to investigate the surveillance near Kyoto to see if there are any traces of Kyoto monsters.

"Compared to this, Mr. Inoue came out this time not just to send flowers home..."

Ue Inoue also took out his black pass, and a ripple of flashing rainbow light appeared beside him, followed by a familiar motorcycle.

He reached out to support the motorcycle, and when Inoue Ueya turned around to leave, he saw a girl with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes standing behind him, staring at him.

"Ghost ah ah ah——"

[Shit, don’t do it yet! 】

With Yamori's shout, Inoue Ueya finally recovered from his brief fright.

Looking down, I saw that I had unknowingly taken several steps back. The transformation belt was already wrapped around my body. I was holding the pass in my hand, ready to enter the transformation state at any time.

"Hey, when did I do this?"

Ue Inoue had no memory of what had just happened. It was as if he was driven by his body's instinct and was ready to transform in the moment he lost consciousness.

[Calm down and look carefully at who the person in front of you is, she is not the enemy! 】

Hearing this, Inoue Ueya stiffly raised his head and looked at the "female ghost" in front of him.

"Um, are you Yukinoshita?"

After thinking about it for a while, Ue Inoue also remembered that Yukinoshita Yukino and Hanakain Yura lived in the same apartment. It was normal for her to appear here.

The female ghost in front of her is Yukinoshita Yukino. She is holding a plastic bag with something in her hand. It seems that she has just returned from buying something from outside, but her appearance seems a bit different from yesterday. .

"But what's the matter with you looking so bad?"

Yukinoshita Yukino did not respond directly to Inoue Ueya, but asked him: "Inoue-san, are you going to find that "high-speed mother-in-law"? "

In an instant, Inoue Ueya fell into silence. It was indeed what Yukinoshita Yukino said. He was going to find Naya. Just this morning, after hearing about Tamaki's physical changes due to "fear", Inoue Zhi also planned to see Naya again.

Even if he doesn't know Naya's current condition, Inoue Ue should be considered one of the few people who can remember her existence. If she needs any help, he wants to try his best to help her.

"Did you guess it right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Inoue Ueya and made a request to go with him.

After returning home yesterday, Yukinoshita Yukino received another call from Ueya Inoue. She found that she seemed to be influenced by Naya. She kept trying to recall the tampered memories, and even stayed up all night because of this, and the result became... She now looks like a "female ghost".

As expected, although Yukinoshita Yukino did feel a vague sense of violation, she still did not recall the original memory, but...

"I want to go too!"

"Seriously? You can't even recall what she looked like, right?"

Chapter 182: What kind of master is this?

"Ah, you're right, I really can't remember her appearance clearly..."

Yukinoshita Yukino did not deny Inoue Ueya's statement, but nodded.

When Yukinoshita Yukino learned about Naya's situation, she subconsciously thought of her past self.

Yukinoshita Yukino, who was once isolated by her classmates when she was a child, had a similar experience, but it was just that her classmates made a lot of small moves and was treated coldly and violently. Unlike Naya, who was directly Forgetting sucks.

At that time, she chose to bear it all alone. Even though she pretended not to care on the surface, she still cared about it in her heart after all.

"Although I have never experienced it personally, I can still imagine how terrifying it is to feel like you have made friends with someone and then are completely forgotten soon after."

The difference is that now she is no longer the "little girl" who pretended to be strong in the past, but one of the people who stays next to the "little girl".

"No matter what, you must never forget her."

Yukinoshita Yukino was thinking like this. No one came out to help her in the past, but now, she wants to be the one who lends a helping hand.

Yukinoshita Yukino wants to prove that she is not the same person as those guys, and that she is no longer the same person as she used to be!

Yes, this is a trial!

You must overcome that boring past and grow again!

"Although I don't know what I can do if my memory is also affected, but I don't want to forget her. I want to see that "high-speed mother-in-law" again! "

"Well, let's go together."

Inoue Ueya shrugged, turned and walked to the motorcycle that fell on the ground, squatted down and lifted it up again.

"Eh?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was a little surprised. She didn't expect Inoue Ueya to agree to her request so easily this time.

"Don't stand still. Time is limited. Mr. Inoue can't guarantee that he will run into her as easily today as he did yesterday, right?"

"Uh, okay..."

"Wait a minute, put on your safety helmet. You, a young lady who takes a private car to school, don't even know this common sense, right?"

"Of course I do, don't think of me as an idiot!"

Then, the locomotive started up again in the dark night.

…

Three hours had passed since the departure. Inoue Ueya and Yukinoshita Yukino had circled the nearby area several times, but they still found no sign of Naya.

Inoue Ueya sighed, parked the motorcycle aside, and turned to look at Yukinoshita Yukino behind him. Her face was gradually getting a little worse now.

"It seems that Naya is not operating in the nearby area today..."

Thinking about it, after all, the other party is also an urban legend. It must be just good luck to meet him so easily yesterday, right?

"It's getting late, should we go back today?"

Yukinoshita's current appearance was as if he had stayed up all night. Occasionally he would close his eyes unconsciously. But if he continued like this, Inoue Ueya began to be a little afraid that this guy would fall off the car because he suddenly fell asleep. For In line with her situation, Inoue Ueya didn't even dare to speed up the car, for fear that the "female ghost" who had stayed up all night might accidentally fall into a real female ghost.

"No! What if I miss the opportunity to meet her because of my break?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he knew that he was a stubborn person, and Inoue Ue couldn't help but smile and shook his head. Even so, according to the current situation, it was estimated that Naya would not show up tonight, so he decided to send Yukinoshita Yukino back first.

"Okay, okay, don't force yourself. If you continue, you may die suddenly before you find Naya. Anyway, go back and have a good sleep first. How can you continue in your current state... "

Ignoring Yukinoshita Yukino's protest, Inoue Ueya directly sent her home on the time train. He had memorized the location from the previous old mouse incident, and there was no need to specifically ask for her residential address this time.

Yukinoshita Yukino saw that Inoue Ueya had insisted on ending today's action, so she had no choice but to go home and rest with a lifeless look. After all, she didn't have a motorcycle or anything, so she couldn't find Naya's whereabouts alone.

Seeing this, Inoue Ueya secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although Yukinoshita Yukino's personality has changed a lot, her mysterious stubbornness still seems to have not disappeared...

Let him look for it alone for a while, because he slept for a long time today. At this time, Inoue Ue also became energetic, and he also told Sadako and the others about his plans tonight before going out. Take action so that they don’t have to worry about themselves.

"Since Yukinoshita is no longer here, let's be a little more serious..."

Now that Yukinoshita Yukino is not here, Inoue Ue can also try to speed up the car for a lap and then go home.

"Yasen, prepare to transform."

【Is it already dawn? Let me sleep for five more minutes. 】

? ? ?

Inoue Ueya's mind was filled with questions. Was the reason she didn't make a sound from the beginning because she fell asleep?

Why did Mr. Inoue feel that what she said had a sense of déjà vu? Why is this reaction similar to when he was woken up by Sadako?

"Forget it, it's just a motorcycle anyway, and the platform form is probably enough."
