Journey to Salvation from Chaldea

Behind a large table with its back to the window, Aozaki Orange stood up from the pile of documents with a cigarette in his mouth: "Yo, Moonlight Night."

She didn't wear glasses, and she seemed to be the capable and decisive female magician Aozaki Touko, not the gentle and polite older sister Aozaki Touko.

"Let me tell you, as a woman, you can't smoke less." Yue Ye walked over while fanning the air, "Smoking is not good for your health, even if you are a very accomplished magician... What kind of eyes are you looking at?"

"...I always feel that there is something different about you." Aoqi Chengzi's eyes were sharp, "I said, aren't you really a magician who belongs to the Magic Association?"

"Of course not, I'm Chinese after all." Yue Ye lied naturally.It's not that he doesn't trust Ao Qi Cheng Zi, but that he really doesn't know how to explain his identity to Ao Qi Cheng Zi.But having said that, in that world of Moonlight Night, he seems to have seen the name of Aozaki Orange on the list of "designated by seal"...

"Oh, oh, China's magic system is indeed completely different from ours." Cang Qi Chengzi nodded, "Do you have an organization in China?"

Before Yue Ye could answer, Ao Qi Cheng Zi asked and answered: "Ah, this is your secret, and I shouldn't have asked. Well, this is why I called you here."

Yue Ye took the stack of materials handed over by Ao Qi Cheng Zi.The top one is a newspaper, and the headline on the front page reads "Female High School Student Falling from a Building——Ghost Possession or Religious Ceremony?" This kind of headline is somewhat mysterious.He opened the newspaper and saw the report that took up a whole page.

The general meaning of the report is that in the Wutiao Building in Guanbuzi City, seven female high school students committed suicide by jumping from the roof within two days.All suicides are unique and unrelated, and each lacks a motive for suicide.But if it is determined to be a homicide, there are no clues at the scene.The police were at a loss and could only temporarily consider it a coincidence.With the weird events and the powerlessness of the police, it is no wonder that they will become the focus of media attention.

Yue Ye put the newspaper aside, and then read the document Ao Qi Cheng Zi gave him.Some are photocopied handwritten interviews, apparently someone interviewed the suicide victim's classmates and teachers.Some are printed screenshots on the forum, and the posters have their own analysis and analysis.There are also several printed pictures, which seem to be pictures of Wutiao Building and its vicinity.

Yue Ye didn't feel nervous at first, until he saw Araya Soren in a photo.

"...What the hell is he doing?" Yue Ye muttered.

"Ah, since Araya appeared, it's basically what he made up." Aozaki Touko took a puff of cigarette, "That guy is a guy who doesn't care much about ordinary people, and will only keep mysterious concealment to a minimum. .Although I don’t know what his motivation for doing this is, it’s definitely not planning anything good.”

"Do magicians have a sense of justice too?" Yue Ye said jokingly.

"I do." Aoqi Chengzi glared at Yue Ye unceremoniously, "And this matter must involve that child, right? Araya must have taken a fancy to that child's something... He doesn't seem to need it. The one with the magic eye?"

"Are you familiar with him?" Yue Ye raised her eyebrows.

"Let me tell you the truth now, he was my classmate in London." Aozaki Orange said naturally, "He was originally a Japanese monk. I don't know why he came to the clock tower to practice magic. It seems that something happened later. , was kicked out by the teacher."

"May I ask, who is your teacher?"

"Inole Baruyeretta Artolohom." Aozaki Touko replied, "Do you know her?"

Yue Ye smiled and nodded: "I know a thing or two. No wonder Huangye Zonglian is like that. If it comes from her sect, then it makes sense."

"It's more than knowing a little bit." Yue Ye added in her heart.He has a good relationship with the magicians of the clock tower democrats, and one of the people who has a close personal relationship is the current head of the Baluereta family.From Yue Ye's point of view, she is a heroine worthy of awe - from the perspective of a magician.

Cang Qi Chengzi nodded noncommittally: "I see. In short, judging from the current situation, neither you nor I seem to be able to stay out of the matter, so I will call you over and go to the scene to investigate together. But having said that , why didn't Liangyi come with you?"

Yue Ye smiled and shook her head: "She has some personal affairs that she can't get away from, so you probably won't see her by my side in a short time."

Cang Qi Chengzi froze when she put on her coat: "I thought Araya did this for her, but since she's not by your side...then what the hell is he doing?"

"Who knows?" Yue Ye shrugged, "For me, if his goal isn't Shiki, it's really my wish."

"Maybe we'll know when we get to the scene." Aoqi Chengzi put a pack of cigarettes and a lighter in his pocket, "Let's go."

"Smoking is bad for your health, isn't it?"

"It's the magic catalyst."

"Tsk, it's obvious that I have a cigarette addiction."

"Shut up and keep up, idiot!"

------------------

moon night...

I said the name again.

The existence of Liangyi has already surprised me very much. Unexpectedly, his existence surprised me even more.

Different from Liangyi's semi-finished product, there is something "already finished" in him.

That... is the answer I've longed for countless times... it just appeared in front of my eyes.I don't know what's in his body, but my instinct tells me that if I get him, I will definitely get the answer I want.

But still not to be taken lightly.Whether it's the two ceremonies, or my "64th floor of the Hall of Encouragement", you must never place all your hopes on your intuition.

Thinking so, the man walked into the taxi.

"Where is sir going?"

"Mayamihama, Ogawa Apartment."

### Chapter 340 Eight Ghosts###

Sand sculpture group 779037920)

"The Wutiao Building is a complex of buildings completed around 1970. Because the original purpose was to become a landmark building, it has a very amazing height. The roof and viewing room alone can attract many people. Recently, due to commercial reasons , has been gradually abandoned, and is on the verge of being demolished. Last month, the last building with people here was emptied, and Wutiao Building became a completely empty building. And the No. [-] building next to us is The place where the female high school student fell from the building."

Aoqi Chengzi explained while walking in the park with Yue Ye.Yue Ye listened and observed the buildings around her.On the surface, these buildings are no different from the usual abandoned office buildings.The exterior walls full of traces of time, the windows with missing corners, the entrance full of dust, and the "No Entry" banner pulled by the police at the entrance.Cangqi Chengzi turned a blind eye to this, and with a swipe of the cigarette, the horizontal belt was broken into two sections.Yue Ye shrugged, followed Ao Qi Cheng Zi and walked in.

"The police did not find a suicide note at the scene, and these people who committed suicide did not have any violent mood swings recently, nor did they have any medical history of depression." Aoqi Chengzi said, "If there is no nostalgia for the world, then there is nothing wrong with it." It is necessary to let everyone know the news of my death. If it is a suicide, if I don’t write a suicide note, I just want to disappear quietly, but in the end I chose such a blatant way of death.”

"It's contradictory to the result of suicide." Yue Ye nodded, "That is to say, they didn't think about suicide at all, just like they encountered a traffic accident when they went shopping. Jumped off."

"Yo, the analogy is very appropriate." Aoqi Chengzi pressed the elevator button.Although the users have all moved away, the basic facilities in the building are still in operation.

"This kind of eerie feeling..." Yue Ye looked at the surrounding environment, "It's a pity to dismantle it, it would be nice to keep it for ghost movies."

"The ghosts in horror movies are all fake." Aoqi Chengzi took off his glasses, "but there are real ghosts here."

The elevator door opened, and Yue Ye walked in with Ao Qi Cheng Zi.Canozaki Chengzi pressed the "18" button without hesitation, and went straight to the top floor.

"I said, I called you here this time, firstly because of your mind, and secondly because of your physical skills." Aozaki Chengzi said lightly, "I don't have a familiar, I can only deal with some miscellaneous fish, if Araya Zong Lian is here...then I will trouble you to be my bodyguard."

Yue Ye showed the Nine Characters and Orientation Aozaki Orange in his left hand, and said with a smile: "Understood, after all, it's in the daytime, and it's really hard to take out your cat. Leave it to me."

"I told you it's not a cat..."

The elevator dutifully took them to the eighteenth floor, and they were greeted by a half-open corridor.On one side of the corridor is a row of doors, and on the other side is a protective fence.The stairs leading to the roof are at the end of this corridor.

"Miss Orange, be a little more careful, this fence is not very strong." Yue Ye tapped the rusted fence with her knuckles, "If it really breaks out, whether it's for you or me, this thing will be as brittle as paper Same."

"Understood." Aoqi Chengzi lit a new cigarette, "There is no magical reaction for the time being, but you still have to be careful."

After they walked carefully for a while, Yue Ye suddenly asked: "Miss Chengzi, wait a minute, did you... hear the girl's laughter?"

"Laughter?" Aozaki Chengzi tensed up all of a sudden.

"That's right, it's like that ethereal and weird smile in a horror movie... huh!?"

"Let's go..."

Before Yue Ye could finish speaking, she was interrupted by another voice.Aoqi Chengzi's right hand suddenly moved, as if an invisible person was pulling her wrist vigorously.She was pulled down to the ground by the sudden force, and the cigarette she just lit came out of her hand.

"Ugh!?"

She was dragged all the way to a corner, and then her arm was brutally smashed towards the edge of the corner.With sharp eyes and quick hands, Yue Ye decisively dropped the knife, and rushed to Cang Qi Chengzi's side with one step.

"excuse me!"

Yue Ye blocked Ao Qicheng's arm with his foot - to be precise, he stepped on her wrist directly.

"What a lot of strength!"

The strength of the invisible enemy is very strong, definitely not at the level of ordinary people.It took Yueye a little effort to stop Aoqi Chengzi's arm.

"Give you!"

Yue Ye picked up the cigarette that Aoqi Orange had dropped on the ground and threw it into her left hand.Aozaki Chengzi smiled, and quickly drew a few spells in the air.

"Fehu Raidu Uruz Thurisaz—"

A semi-circular mask spread out around her.At the same time, Yue Ye felt the strength under her feet disappear all of a sudden.He raised his head and immediately looked around, looking for traces of the enemy.

"Don't look for it, I saw it, that guy is floating towards the roof." Cang Qi Chengzi's voice sounded faintly from the foot of Yue Ye, "The surrounding area is temporarily safe, how long are you going to step on my hand?"

"Hey? I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yue Ye quickly let go of her feet.

Cang Qi Chengzi stood up while rubbing his wrists, and said helplessly: "The reaction was very fast. I was ready to accept the result of my right arm being broken. I didn't expect you to stop it for me. However, the method is really good. Rough. Should I thank you for not pinning my hand to the ground with a knife?"

Yue Ye was even more embarrassed.He smiled shyly, scratching his cheek with his index finger.

"Forget it, no matter what I say, I have to thank you." Aoqi Chengzi patted the ashes on his clothes, "Let's go, that guy has gone to the roof."

"See what it is?" Yue Ye picked up the knife.

"It seems to be a kind of ghost—who knows." Aozaki orange shrugged, "It looks like a humanoid object floating in mid-air. According to the Japanese custom, it should be called a ghost, right?"

"Then my knife is useless?"

"Not necessarily, if you add a layer of magic power to the blade, it can still be done. I don't need to teach you this type of magic on the spot, right?" Aoqi Chengzi raised his eyebrows.

"That's not necessary. Alright, let's go." Yue Ye took the lead.

"The target is a spirit body, and it has already gone to the roof, so be careful." Aoqi Chengzi followed up, "There is no trace of Araya for now, but don't take it lightly."

"Understood." Yue Ye nodded.

He opened the door leading to the roof and saw the appearance of the enemy clearly: there were several ghosts floating about ten meters outside the boundary of the roof.All ghosts are female, with different faces and uniform white dresses.

"Will ghosts dare to come out to move around at noon?" Yue Ye complained.

Cangqi Chengzi ignored Yue Ye's complaints, but rushed towards the ghosts nimbly, shouting a mantra: "Help me guard my surroundings, I'll be fine soon! FahuRaiduKauno——Dagaz!"

Several bands of light protruded from the void, binding the ghosts tightly.The ghost seemed to want to do the same trick again, she pulled Aoqi Chengzi's right hand that was casting a spell, and dragged her towards the edge of the building.Aoqi Chengzi sneered, flicked his finger, and the cigarette was passed to his left hand in the air: "UruzThurisaz——Dagaz!"

White flames suddenly ignited on the light belt, burning the bodies of the ghosts.Accompanied by bursts of ear-piercing screams, the ghosts turned into green smoke and disappeared one by one.Soon, only the leader is left.

Despite the ghosts' heavy losses, their leader doesn't seem to have given up on throwing Touko Aozaki down the stairs.She stretched out her hand and flicked it, and Aozaki Orange was pulled out of the boundary of the roof.

"Miss Chengzi!" Yue Ye called out to her.

"Don't underestimate the magician!" Ao Qi Chengzi had a dangerous smile on his face, "Don't even try to escape!"

Her left hand did not save herself, but continued to draw the rune: "WonduUruzThurisaz——Dagaz!"

A light gun slanted down from the sky, pierced the ghost leader's chest, and pinned her to the roof of the building.She struggled a bit, then stopped moving.

Aoqi Chengzi had already made plans to change her body, but the expected sense of loss did not come.She looked at the golden silk thread tightly wrapped around her right hand, and smiled happily: "...I remember, don't Chinese magicians always put confidentiality as the top priority? This is your... ... Immortal art?"

Half of Yue Ye's body was hanging in mid-air.He controlled the silk thread with his right hand, and fixed himself on the roof with his left hand: with his left hand, he cut five holes directly on the edge of the cement.

He smiled and said, "Just think of me as an outlier among Chinese magicians. How about it, can you come up by yourself? Or do you need me to throw you up?"

"Forget it, I'll do it myself." Aozaki Chengzi began to draw the runes, "You should be more worried about that ghost than me—in case I didn't control the strength well and accidentally killed the last survivor If so, then our clues will be cut off."

"It's here, right?" Yue Ye stood outside the ward, looking back at Cang Qi Chengzi.

"That's right." Aoqi Chengzi shrugged, "Really, just open the door, we are not the family members of the patients who came to visit. If we have to find an identity for us, we are here to interrogate the prisoner The police are more or less."

"Basic etiquette is still indispensable." Yue Ye knocked on the door twice, "Is anyone there?"

No voice responded to him.He tapped again, still no response.Cang Qicheng sighed helplessly, and pushed open the door: "Excuse me."

Yue Ye was stunned by the quiet ward.He looked at the girl lying on the hospital bed, then at the time, and asked in a low voice, "Miss Chengzi, is it still the patient's nap time?"

"No, I didn't sleep, please come in."

Before Canozaki Chengzi could speak, the girl on the hospital bed sat up.She opened her dull eyes, and softly invited Yue Ye and Ao Qi Cheng Zi in.

"excuse me."

"Good afternoon, miss."

The girl turned her head in the direction of Yue Ye and Ao Qi Cheng Zi: "Who is it?"

The girl has long black hair and a handsome face, exactly the same as the ghost leader they saw on the top of the Wutiao Building.Yue Ye and Cang Qi Chengzi exchanged glances: "It is indeed here." "Yes."

The girl seemed to be still waiting for their answer.Yue Ye sighed softly and said, "My name is Yue Ye."

"Chengzi. Cangzaki Chengzi." Cangzaki Chengzi said, "Thanks to this guy, I came to you after your nap time. Although it's a bit late, it doesn't matter. We were in Wutiao about two hours ago. I saw it on the top of the building, you won’t forget it, right?”

"Ah... are you my enemy?"

"Yeah." Aozaki Chengzi nodded.
