Having said that, Zhu Xiu Suzuki paused, and gestured on the coffee table with her fingers:

   "In the countermeasure group, there is a set of universal grading standards for supernatural events.

   will give a comprehensive rating based on the identity, ability, temperament of the evil creatures involved in the incident, as well as the number of times and experiences they have appeared in history, and the degree of threat to human society.

   Ordinary spooky events are mostly D-class, and they are usually related to some resentful spirits or low-level little monsters, which are easy to deal with.

   Like Painted Skin and Inu God, those who are cruel in nature, or are manipulated by evil cultivators, can cause a dozen or even dozens of casualties with their own demon power, they can be considered as C-level.

   On top of this, if it can cause more than three-digit casualties in a short period of time, it will be promoted to Class B.

This kind of existence appeared once a few decades ago, and it made the major shrines in Chiba Prefecture helpless. Five or six priests and Onmyojis died in its hands. The ordinary people who died tragically were not even considered. Count, in the end, it was a powerful witch who came forward and extinguished her, which was the solution to this trouble...

   Speaking of which, the shrine maiden still has some connections with your shrine. Perhaps Chiyo-sama once saw her when she was young. "

   Is it related to Tenme Shrine?

When    heard these words, Bai Shuiqiu was slightly startled, and then suddenly understood:

   The shrine maiden who appeared at Tenmou Shrine decades ago is probably the only one who can be called a "powerful" maiden, right?

but…

   Suzuki Zhuxi also knows the existence of aunt?

   "Well, I also heard about this from my grandfather."

   Suzuki Zhuxi nodded and explained;

"The monster that made the chaos at the time was called Crazy Bone. Even in the monster group, it was a rare breed with ferocious and tyrannical temperament. After killing humans, he would pull out the bones of the opponent's body, leaving only one. The rotten ground meat...

This monster was very active in the Warring States Period. Later, it was captured by the Onmyoji of Tokyo and sealed in the hills around Nerima District. Because the shrine that was guarding it was negligent for a while, it found the opportunity to break the seal on its own. The wandering to Chiba Prefecture caused a lot of riots, until two months later, the shrine maiden Shirasumi Sana of your Tenmou Shrine was killed...

But at that time my grandfather was also very young, he was under ten years old, and he was not qualified to participate in person. In addition, the damage caused by mad bones was mainly concentrated in the northern part of Chiba Prefecture, far away from the Jangsaeng County where Tamaki Shrine is located. Just heard about the situation.

   To be more specific, I am afraid that only Chiyo Dai of your shrine knows it. "

  "..."

   It's strange that Bai Shui Qiuxin said it more clearly.

   She still knows a little about her aunt and grandma.

Although theoretically speaking, the aunt and grandma Chiyo are two sisters, the age difference between the two has reached sixteen years old. When Chiyo was just two years old, the aunt and grandma were killed in an accident. There are not many opportunities for direct communication.

   I am afraid that most of the experience of my aunt's grandmother was relayed from Chiyo's father, the great-grandfather of Bai Shuiqiu.

   But after two retellings, and after so many years, even if Chiyo knew something, most of his memory now is vague, and he may not have more information than Suzuki Zhuki's grandfather.

   Even the name "Shirasumi Sana", Shirasuiqiu only knew from the maiden of the Tamaki Shrine.

   Well, maybe I can find a chance to ask my grandma...

   Bai Shuiqiu thought this in his heart, and said casually: "By the way, the number of casualties caused by the B-level incident has reached more than three digits, then the higher A-level, is it even higher?"

   I just don’t know if there are any S-levels, double S-levels, or even SSR-levels...

Suzuki Zhuxi nodded: "Yes, but A-level is only a theoretical concept. It is set based on the group of monsters that have left a lot of color in history, but since the end of the Heian period, this group The monsters gradually disappeared, some were slain, some were sealed, and some disappeared...

   Since the establishment of the countermeasure team, I have never encountered a supernatural event rated at this level. Personally, I don’t want to see such a thing in my lifetime.

   After all, once an event of that level occurs, it means a rare disaster is coming. Even if it causes turbulence in the entire country, it is not surprising. "

really…

   Thousands of casualties are definitely not a small number. They are basically equivalent to casualties caused by a huge earthquake or tsunami.

   And this level of natural disasters, even in an island country like Japan, which is entrenched in earthquake belts and frequented by earthquakes and tsunamis, is encountered once in decades.

  Bai Shuiqiu can't even imagine, the existence that can cause such a large casualty, how powerful is it, I am afraid that even the old monster and the rain girl can't do it.

  —According to Bai Shuiqiu's estimation, the strength of these two people should be at the level of B.

   Speaking of...

  The old monster and the rain girl are not like Painted Skin, in the world of chaos, it is really a very thankful thing. If they are enemies, Bai Shuiqiu estimates that he will be eaten to death.

   This has already been confirmed in Rain Girl...

Chapter 255

   "Sorry, it's a bit too far..."

   Suzuki Zhuxi, who was sitting opposite, took a sip of tea slowly and smiled:

  " In short, the most frequent occurrences of supernatural events are the two types of D and C. For you, Sister Baishui, it will not be difficult to deal with.

  If you really encounter unexpected situations, you can always ask for help from the headquarters in Chiba City.

   All matters in this area are handled by Secretary Fujiwara of the headquarters. If you have any needs, you can contact him. "

  "As for the rewards received after each task is completed, in addition to monetary rewards, it can also be exorcism, talisman, spells, etc...

These things are all left by the members of the countermeasure team for several generations. After you join in, you can use them as rewards for each mission, or use the talisman and defensive in your shrine to directly exchange them for what you want. .

   As for the ‘database’, the information in it is open to all members. Except for a few parts with a relatively high level of confidentiality, which require sufficient authority, other parts can be browsed at will. "

"understood."

   Bai Shuiqiu nodded.

   The explanation given by Zhuxi Suzuki is very detailed.

   can almost make the final decision based on these.

   Bai Shuiqiu took a deep breath, opened his mouth, and suddenly changed his conversation: "I have one last question... If you want to withdraw from the organization for personal reasons, you should not be blocked?"

"what?"

Suzuki Zhuxi obviously did not expect that she would ask this, but she was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbfounded: "Don't worry, the countermeasure team will not impose any personal restrictions on members, whether it is due to personal reasons or conflicts with other people. , It doesn't matter."

"Oh well."

   Bai Shuiqiu finally nodded.

   Suzuki Zhuxi kept looking at her expression. Until then, she seemed to be relieved. He stretched out a hand and smiled slightly: "Well, welcome to join, Sister Shirashui."

"thanks."

   The two white palms shook hands on the coffee table, and then they withdrew each other.

Then, Suzuki Zhuxi took out a note from her bag, wrote a series of numbers quickly, and handed it over: "This is the contact information of Secretary Fujiwara. After joining the countermeasures team, there are related matters and some newbie information. , Will be sent to you by him.

  The time is expected to be within the next two days. When you see this call coming, just remember to answer it. "

"I see."

   Bai Shuiqiu glanced at the line of numbers on the paper, and slipped the note into his pocket.

   The business is over.

   This time, Zhuxi Suzuki and Jubei are really going to leave.

   Bai Shuiqiu sent the two people down the mountain all the way, watching them leave in the car before turning around and walking back.

   Speaking of, in the last few days, the heat of the painting incident on the Hechuan Bridge has gradually faded, and there are not many people discussing this topic on the Internet.

   However, the number of visitors to Tenmoku Shrine has actually increased a lot.

Especially on weekends, although the popularity is not as good as the previous week, it is already several times higher than before. More and more locals in Narita City have heard the name of Tenme Shrine from the Internet or others, so they come to visit .

Of course…

   There are also some customers who come to see the "small and cute maiden".

   I don’t know which guest came from this rumor. As a result, during this period, many people ran over to see the shrine maiden under the guise of visiting the shrine.

   Among them, most of them are high school students aged eighteen or nineteen, and young men in their early thirties.

   Occasionally, some girls in their twenties will come over and talk to Bai Shuiqiu in various ways.

  Although the intentions of these guys made Bai Shuiqiu feel a little impatient, but the shrine can sell more than a dozen Omori and Ema every day.

   Moreover, with the presence of two part-time witches, Kanako and Hyuga Asuka, Bai Shuiqiu is no longer as busy as before.

   occasionally touches the fish, throws all the work to the two girls, and goes back to the house to lie down for a while.

   Or when the sun is scorching, holding a broom alone, sweeping the leaves under the shade of the trees in the corner of the courtyard, and staring at the sky from time to time for a while, it feels comfortable.

   If there is a cool breeze blowing from the side, I feel more comfortable.

   After several days of experimentation, the two part-time witches have gradually adapted to the working process in the shrine.

In addition to speaking and doing things, he is still a bit rusty. It looks a bit like a witch. The red and white witch costume on her body is worn, whether it is to guide guests to visit in the courtyard or to promote Ema and Omori in front of the worship hall. They are all done in a decent way, which makes Bai Shuiqiu quite worry-free.

but…

  In the gap between cleaning the courtyard, Bai Shuiqiu noticed a mother and daughter.

The mother among them seems to be fifty or sixty years old, she is a slightly rickety old lady, and her daughter is twenty-seven or eighteen years old. Both of them have a little sad expression on their faces and put them in the cash box. After buying the coin and asking for a lottery, he still didn't leave, but wandered inside and outside the worship hall.

   At this time, it was a bit late.

   The sun began to set.

The guests in the    shrine left one after another, and the worship hall that had been busy all day gradually became deserted. Kanako finally noticed the mother and daughter at this time, and walked over to chat for a few words.

   "You mean to say..."

   "Your father died of a heart attack a month ago, but during this period of time, you and your mother have often heard his voice at home, sometimes you can see him?"

   "This kind of thing...Are you sure you are not mistaken?"

   separated by a distance of more than ten meters, Kanako's voice was clearly transmitted to Bai Shuiqiu's ears.

   When the girl heard what she said to the mother and daughter, she was slightly startled, and subconsciously glanced at Bai Shuiqiu's side, and stopped talking.

   And the daughter of the mother and daughter continued: "It can't be wrong.

   This kind of thing has happened several times, sometimes in the kitchen, sometimes in the balcony...

My father was very fond of growing flowers. There were a lot of flowers planted by him on the balcony. During that time, we were busy taking care of his funeral. For about half a month, no one took care of those things. I thought they should be all. It's dry and dead, and I didn't expect it to grow very luxuriant...

   There is no way to explain this kind of thing except for the father's return.

   For this reason, a few days ago, I specially invited a master to Shinshoji Temple to come back. I wanted to help my father do another ritual, but I didn’t find anything..."

   Having said that, the daughter paused, her face turned a little sad:

"My father was sent to the hospital in the middle of the night. He passed away because the rescue failed. He didn't have time to leave a word to us before he died. So my mother and I suspected that he might have some last wish, so he stayed here. At home, I also hope that your shrine can help, and let me, a daughter, do my last filial piety..."

"this…"

   Kanako's expression also became a little nervous: "I don't know about this...maybe we need to ask Shiro from our shrine..."

"excuse me."

Bai Shuiqiu put down his broomstick, raised his foot and walked over, first nodded to Kanako, and then smiled at the mother and daughter: "I am Bai Shuiqiu from this shrine. I have heard both of you just now. It’s here, so your purpose is to know your father’s last wish, right?"

"Yes…"

   The mother and daughter glanced at each other, and the daughter nodded.

   Then things are simple.

  As early as when the mother and daughter came in from outside, Bai Shuiqiu had noticed that there was a vague figure following them.

   To be precise, it is a spiritual body.

   On his face, he was an old man with a thin face. The contours of his eyebrows were somewhat similar to those of the daughter of the mother and daughter, and he could probably recognize a father and daughter.

   It's just that when this spirit body just passed through the torii gate, it became sluggish, as if it was suppressed by some inexplicable force, and its originally somewhat rickety figure became even more shrunken.

   reluctantly walked a few steps forward, and stopped in front of the approach road outside the gate of the shrine and hesitated.

  Even the entire astral body became transparent, and the gas belonging to the astral body could hardly be felt.

   Bai Shuiqiu actually noticed the meager Yin Qi on the mother and daughter first, and after receiving the reminder from the wind raccoon, he deliberately walked over to the gate and took a look, only to find this spiritual body.

   Otherwise, just the faint breath of this spirit body would not arouse her attention at all.

   As for Kanako, although this girl has rare spiritual media qualities, after all, her spiritual vision is very weak, and coupled with the distance, she did not feel any changes.

   "Speaking..."

  This change...Is it the Rain Girl brought it?
