I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo

Chapter 63 The Influence of the Times

"too slow,"

The entrance to Kozakura Girls' High School,

After Qiu Riqiong said his habitual 'talk', he glanced at Iai Nao.

"Why is this woman still here? Isn't there a club activity?"

"Xiaoqiong."

Class Leader Nao pushed up her round glasses awkwardly and explained,

"This happened and the school decided to suspend club activities."

In fact, not only Homi High School, but also the 'Osakura Girls' High School' in front of them was in chaos.

The usually elegant ladies gathered together in twos and threes to form interest groups, using their connections to try to find traces of extraordinary existences!

Human beings will never lack the spirit of adventure, especially island countries that like to 'bet on national fortunes'. Extraordinary existence is certainly terrifying, but the benefits it can bring are equally astonishing: if others don’t know about it, how can the young ladies in this school not know about it?

The transferred student Tiannu Ying is the one their parents need to please!

Isn't this the case because she has extraordinary power?

Compared with ordinary people who have their worldview exploded and look confused, young ladies who are members of the upper class have known about the existence of extraordinary beings for a long time.

Now, with Rashomon destroyed and the ghosts and spirits scattered, this is a God-given opportunity!

As for how to win over and control a transcendent being after you find it?

That's another question.

What's more, even if you can't eat it yourself, wouldn't selling this information to other consortiums be a big favor and a huge reward?

In the foreseeable future, ‘super detective’ will be a new and popular profession!

".That's it,"

I introduced the situation of my school to my brother and the ‘bad woman’.

The three of them were just about to leave when a girl with long hair and shawl came over and raised her hand to say hello.

"Xiaoqiong,"

The other person was wearing the uniform of Royal Sakura Girls' High School. He was slim and tall, neither thin nor plump, with an innocent smile on his face.

She looked like a young lady who did a lot of exercise, but her posture while walking made Qiu Riyu raise her eyebrows slightly.

"Hongo Minister,"

Qiu Riqiong turned to look at him, and his expressionless face relaxed.

"This is the head of our 'Internet Department': Hongo Hina."

After saying that, Qiong raised his hand to introduce Qiu Riyu and the two of them.

"This is my brother, Qiu Riyu."

"And. Neighbor I love Nao."

In front of outsiders, Qiu Riqiong is not a 'bad woman'.

The visitor bowed slightly to Qiu Riyu and the two of them politely.

"Hello you two,"

"I am the club director of Qiong. Please give me your advice."

"Please give me more advice,"

Eai Nao also bowed in return, while Akira Yuu said:

"Hello."

Facing the right hand stretched out by Qiu Riyu, the girl naturally stretched out her right hand.

really,

Holding the two hands together, Qiu Riyu knew clearly in his heart: he was a master.

Don’t get me wrong, the so-called ‘masters’ are only based on ordinary people: based on Qiu Riyu, all humans are giant ants!

The two hands separated at the first touch. After noticing that the density of the other's muscles was obviously different from that of ordinary people, Qiu Riyu also became curious.

The beautiful girl in front of me is actually a master who has been trained in actual combat?

interesting,

"cough,"

Bai Bai stared straight at his minister's brother, Qiu Riqiong took a step forward and stood between the two of them.

"Minister, what's the matter?"

"Well, my family just bought an old school. Do you want to go on an adventure together?"

The girl named 'Hina Hongo' took out her mobile phone. On the screen was an old school from the 1970s: Judging from the desolate atmosphere, it was indeed an abandoned school. As for the reason, because of the shortage of students due to the "low birthrate", many schools eventually closed down.

In ancient times, there was a certain truth in "having more children means you will be blessed".

There were conflicts with other families or neighboring villages, and a few big men stepped forward, showing their intimidation and fighting power.

But in modern times, no matter how many children they have, they are just the cows and horses of big financial groups. Even if ordinary people want to "rise up", they will be scum in the face of modern weapons: after realizing this, the people at the bottom can only use "no life" to passively resist.

This has led to the closure of many schools. Coupled with the population siphoning of big cities, deserted "ghost villages" have even appeared in some remote places.

"Adventure?"

Facing Qiong's rhetorical question, Hongo Hina smiled and looked at Akira Yuu and Squad Leader Nao.

"The two of you are so close to Qiong, so you must be an 'insider', right?"

".Yes,"

Nodding slightly, although he wanted to deny being intimate with the 'bad woman', Qiong also understood that now was not the time to care about it.

"Then, you must have watched the previous live broadcast."

"Superiority is coming, and as high school students in the new era, we should also actively participate in it."

Clenching her fists and making a cute gesture of "come on", Hongo Hina once again extended an invitation to the three of them:

"Would you like to explore together?"

“Just treat it as an outdoor club activity~~”

I see,

Through her family's influence, this eldest lady has secured an abandoned school and is going to open the box to see if she can hit the Hundred Ghosts flying out of Rashomon. It must be said that these island country dignitaries are really full of mobility.

but--

"is this okay?"

Qiu Riyu took over the topic,

"This is Hongo-classmate's family property, right? Us"

If three outsiders got the benefit of a collision by mistake, wouldn't they fall out on the spot?

"Will not,"

The smiling girl waved her hand,

"It's a bit boastful to say that. I'm very favored at home: my parents, brother, everything listens to me."

"Besides, it's just a matter of going and taking a look: if transcendence is so easy to encounter, then this country will become interesting and chaotic in the future."

Hearing what the 'minister' of his club said, Qiu Riqiong fell into a dilemma.

This minister has a good personality, strong mobility, and top-notch grades. He is very popular among girls and belongs to the "King of Ten Thousand Females" type of person. Even Qiu Riqiong has a good relationship with her. ——In fact, with Qiu Riqiong’s personality of spending time on the Internet every day, there are very few people who can be called friends.

"elder brother."

"Listen to you."

After saying that, Qiu Riyu turned to look at monitor Nao apologetically.

"Nao, look around"

"It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry to go home."

Yiai Nao replied that anyway, her parents were in a strange mood when they met, like life and death enemies, so it would be better to go back later.

"Then it's decided happily, let's go!"

Hongo Jinai, who was full of energy, made a scissor hand gesture. An extended black bulletproof Bentley drove by quietly next to her. The driver, who was dressed in formal clothes and had bullet marks on his cheeks, opened the door for everyone and stood aside respectfully.

"That's fine,"

Qiu Riyu touched his chin,

Just think of it as a pastime before dinner, since it's still early anyway.

————

Chiyoda,

Nagata Town, the official residence of the Prime Minister.

Just when Qiu Riyu and others decided to go on an adventure to 'Happy', the meeting room here was filled with gloom and gloom.

This is the heart of the island country. Since the Taisho period, countless conspiracies and government orders have been issued from here, affecting the destiny of everyone in the island country.

Both sides of the long oval table were filled with senior officials from the island country, including all cabinet ministers. In addition, the Metropolitan Police Department and the Self-Defense Forces crowded a long table, and everyone's face was extremely heavy.

Even so, basic etiquette is still required. After a group of officials greeted each other, the Minister of Finance stood up first, with a sad expression on his face.

"This extraordinary incident caused huge property and personnel losses in Tokyo!"

"More than 370 houses were damaged alone. Large areas of transportation facilities and circuit systems were damaged. More than 400 ordinary citizens and police officers were injured or killed. The Self-Defense Forces suffered only 50 casualties. The direct economic losses and subsequent The compensation amounted to more than 300 billion yen.”

This is the result of the Metropolitan Police Department’s efforts to evacuate. As for the American Embassy on the other side:

The casualties were not big, but the impact was extremely bad!

The world's most powerful lighthouse had its embassy reduced to rubble, and the prisoners were allowed to escape in the end. Under the watch of embassies from other countries: You don't need to think about it to know that tonight all the fireworks in the world will be sold out.

"The subsequent hit to financial investment in Tokyo and the shrinking of the local market."

The Minister of Finance had a bitter look on his face. In today's environment, the subsequent impact of the war is much more terrifying than the direct destruction of the war!

Massive capital outflows, factory relocations, not to mention service industries such as tourism.

The extraordinary battle that took place in Shibuya District caused a direct loss of more than 300 billion. However, due to the subsequent economic turmoil, money measured in trillions may evaporate out of thin air, leading to national turmoil and a crisis of trust in the government. Once caught by political opponents Chances are, 'calls to step down' will follow!

The powerful also have enemies.

That's other powerful people who want to be in power!

"As well as America, the compensation required from us——"

As the statistics were reported one by one, the faces of the ministers and senior officials attending the meeting became increasingly serious. Not surprisingly, this money will be borne by tens of millions of people in Tokyo.

This is all 'their' money!

"It's not all bad,"

The Chief Cabinet Secretary spoke, breaking the solemn atmosphere.

"Although Shibuya District has suffered certain losses, we have also gained a lot."

As he spoke, the Chief Cabinet Secretary turned to look at the Chairman of the National Public Security Commission.

"Collect the scattered Rashomon fragments as much as possible, and it is prohibited to trade them, especially resell them abroad!"

"Once discovered, he will be punished with treason!"

"Hi,"

The Chairman of the National Public Security Committee nodded heavily, and then changed his tone:

"But America has sent troops to 'assist' in sealing off the scene, and their experts are also here."

The Chief Cabinet Secretary's face darkened, as if he had eaten shit.

"This matter is left to the Minister of Foreign Affairs."

Foreign Minister:?

"I try my best"

Since ancient times, "weak countries have no diplomacy". Facing the "superior country" America, what can he do except protest?

"I have some thoughts on financial issues."

The Minister in Charge of Economic Revitalization spoke,

The so-called ‘Minister in Charge of Economic Regeneration’ is responsible for national health, medical insurance, medical service provision, drug and food safety, social insurance and social security, labor and employment, and social assistance for vulnerable groups.

To put it simply, it is a combination of the Ministry of Health, the Food and Drug Administration, and the National Development and Reform Commission.

"This extraordinary event is both a crisis and an opportunity."

"If we can seize it, the economy may reach a new high."

As soon as this person spoke, the atmosphere turned 180 degrees, which was a bit like "celebrating a funeral", which made others look at him sideways.

"From the information obtained from the Inari God, we know that the supernatural world overlaps with the human world, centered on our island country, Tokyo."

This is also the reason why Tokyo is "full of disasters". At first glance, it seems unlucky, but:

"On the other hand, at present, only we have "supernatural" here!"

As the saying goes, "rare goods are valuable", since only Tokyo has "goods", if he doesn't raise the price, is he worthy of his title of "Minister in charge of Economic Revitalization"?

"If other countries want to obtain any information about the supernatural, they can, but they have to pay real money!"

"For example, the wreckage of Rashomon costs 100,000 US dollars."

As he said, the minister added:

"One gram!"

? ? ?

Why don't you go rob? No, robbing is not as fast as making money like this?

The ‘moon rock’ collected by Apollo during the moon landing was auctioned for $442,500 per gram: however, it is essentially just an ‘ordinary’ moon rock, and apart from its rarity, it is useless.

Moreover, as the moon landing technology becomes more and more advanced, its price will certainly continue to decline visibly with the naked eye.

And the fragments of ‘Rashomon’ are indeed related to the extraordinary! Not to mention foreign countries, even the island country’s own big chaebols are willing to pay to get it back for research.

Maybe one day, it will attract ‘extraordinary’ to invest?

“This is just the beginning,”

The Minister of Economic Revitalization continued to talk,

“We can completely use the name of ‘extraordinary’ to attract huge investments again.”

Researching the extraordinary,

can cure all diseases and make people immortal!

Regardless of whether this slogan is realistic or not, just by proposing it, countless wealthy people around the world flocked to it, waving checks and asking to join the game: it’s like the end of the world is coming, and the island country holds Noah’s Ark, and it would be a shame not to sell tickets.

"Even the tourism industry can be taken to a higher level."

I believe that soon, a large number of foreigners with the spirit of "adventure" will come to the island country to try to contact the extraordinary.

These "middle class" are also good targets for harvesting. If they don't take the opportunity to make a fortune, the Minister of Economic Revitalization will slap himself twice when he wakes up at night.

Great!

After he said this, everyone's face turned happy.

That's right, if you can't soar to the sky with "extraordinary resources", isn't it a waste of "opportunity"?

"The arrival of the extraordinary is a great thing!"

As for the ordinary people and police who died because of this.

They are also very happy to contribute to the rise of the island country.
