I, the lord of ghost stories

"In the depths of hell, sinners will be punished forever without escape."

The goddess who is wearing a luxurious black chrysanthemum pattern long jacket and has a beautiful face represents a hell behind her.

It's a hell of a real-running, self-contained, "grudge-hunting" hell.

Laymen only see her beauty, but those who know her know how to be in awe.

"God is the real master of this world, not man."

"Gods are immortal for thousands of years, but the shogunate is not, and people are not."

The people from the Shinto Hall personally visited the Metropolitan Police Department and gave a serious reprimand.

The shogunate carried out internal rectification. Under the general's instruction, all such blasphemers were given serious warnings and even expelled.

Three days later, Baiye Ji Shrine.

In the quiet shade of a tree, in a corner room of the side hall of the shrine.

Wearing a light and breathable bathrobe, Qing Xingdeng's long hair like ink was hanging behind his shoulders, and he seemed to have the moist breath after bathing. He looked lazy and lay on his back on the tatami.

There is only a simple small TV in the shrine, playing some boring news.

She still had some newspapers in her hand, and she was flipping through them casually, her eyes paused suddenly, and she took out a copy from the newspapers, which seemed to be delivered this morning.

"Too much pressure at work, the hot-handed policeman suffers from mania on the road"

"Be alert, a new type of mania virus is spreading, and the shogunate plans to conduct a general survey of potential mania in the Japanese metropolitan area."

On Qing Xingdeng's cool and pretty face, there was a faint smile.

She stroked the blue hair that had been cut short, and now it could barely cover her buttocks. Her light-colored eyes were full of water, and she looked straight at a certain direction in the empty space of the room.

"Sa, this is just the prelude to Hundred Stories."

"Known as the master of all strange stories in Japan, please wait for the greeting from my concubine."

another place.

Sitting under the sunny and warm garden, Mochizuki Toichiro was drinking tea when he suddenly saw the headlines of today's newspapers on the white tablecloth.

With his eyes fixed, he picked up the "Asahi Shimbun" and read it carefully for a few minutes.

Japanese people have the habit of reading newspapers.

For consumers in other countries, newspapers have gradually disappeared in the wave of Internet media.

Open the news portal website, all kinds of political, economic, entertainment and sports news have been listed according to personal preferences, with pictures, texts and video reports.

Due to the impact of the Internet and new media in recent years, the global newspaper industry has entered an irreversible period of decline.

However, the sales volume of newspapers in Japan is still strong, going against the tide of the times.

There are many complicating factors.

Dongying’s paper media has a long history, and they are basically inherited in the same strain, with few changes in the middle.

"Mainichi Shimbun" is the oldest newspaper in Japan. It was founded in 1872 and has a history of 146 years.

The "Yomiuri Shimbun" with the highest circulation in the world is the second oldest newspaper in Japan, and it was founded 2 years later than the Mainichi Shimbun.

In addition to the two major newspaper groups, Mainichi Shimbun and Yomiuri Shimbun, Dongying also has four major newspaper groups, namely: Asahi Shimbun, Dongying Economic Shimbun, Tokyo Shimbun and Sankei Shimbun.

The reason for the prosperity of Japan's newspaper industry is that the people of Japan believe in the fairness and neutrality of media reports, and they believe that the things reported by newspapers are highly authentic.

This has to do with newspaper groups being non-state owned

The six major newspaper groups in Japan are all privately owned, and the government has no shareholding and cannot control these media.

In other words, these newspaper groups have no superior management unit, and the largest management organization is the newspaper's own management committee.

Therefore, these media can maintain their independence - relatively speaking, more objective and fair

Absolute objective justice does not exist, unless it is the Creator above the universe.

As far as the media is concerned, its credibility is commendable globally.

In addition, mass-oriented content is also a trick for newspapers to attract subscribers.

Take "Yomiuri Shimbun" as an example. It has been serializing novels since 1886. The novels of the most famous writers in every historical period in Japan have been serialized by "Yomiuri Shimbun".

Like Kawabata Yasunari, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Mishima Yukio and so on.

Keigo Higashino, a popular reasoning writer, also serialized the novel "Letter" on "Mainichi Shimbun".

Because of this, there have been a large number of newspaper followers among the people of Japan, readers who tend to be conservative and populist in their thinking, and have only subscribed to "Yomiuri Shimbun" for a lifetime.

Readers who like cultural and travel information like to subscribe to "Daily News".

Company white-collar workers and business managers like to read Dongying Economic News.

This is called "vegetables and radishes, each has its own love".

"Asahi Shimbun" is a comprehensive newspaper with the second largest circulation. Many literary works are published in the newspaper. It is an affiliated enterprise with TV Asahi.

Mochizuki Toichiro even holds a small stake in it, though very little...

He is well-informed, and he has learned about it since the incident happened.

However, after reading today's newspaper, I still feel sympathetic.

After being silent for a while, he put down the newspaper and pinched his temples, looking a little tired, looking at the exquisite garden.

At this time, there are white and red flowers blooming quietly.

Outside the manicured green bushes, behind the wooden fence, there are dense forests that surround the villa, effectively blocking the outside view and ensuring the privacy of the owner of the mansion.

"Kazuya is still too young!"

Looking at familiar people, especially those who have almost grown up, eventually came to a dead end.

At this time, Mochizuki Taoichiro really had a special feeling in his heart.

"I have persuaded him many times, but I still can't listen, and finally got into a big disaster."

Maybe it's because of old age, the ambition of youth has long since cooled.

Righteousness, family and country, ideals, sacrifice, like the boiling blood, the struggle that is flourishing like the morning sun...

These nouns that would make young people's blood boil and do anything at all, for him, attracted no more attention than the cobblestones on the roadside.

The older the world is, the less courageous it is. It doesn't mean that young people have changed.

It's just that the young people are old, beaten, bleeding, suffered a loss, smashed their heads, know awe... and are about to die.

He was also a young man once, and he also had enthusiasm, and he also came from there.

When you are young, you have plenty of money and energy, and most importantly, you have plenty of time and lots of choices, so you have struggles.

At his age, his lifelong career has been accomplished, and his life expectancy is approaching. No matter how hard he struggles, there is not much room for improvement. The main focus is on keeping his business and inheriting it. Naturally, he cannot be the same as a young man.

This is not a big deal.

More importantly, he knows more and has a deeper understanding of the true face of the world, so he knows more about awe.

In Mochizuki Taoichiro's mind, Mizuguro Kazuya's biggest mistake was not being reckless, or even attempting to kill God!

The biggest mistake is not knowing.

How much power he has, what power God has, he didn't know anything, so he rushed up.

This is not just recklessness, just like a praying mantis raising its arm to block a moving cart, without self-knowledge!

Hitting a stone with an egg, hitting yourself to death, and praising the so-called courage, is there a dime point?

In a few months, who will remember him?

"Weakness is not a sin, arrogance is.

Kazuya, it was because you were too arrogant that you died inexplicably. "

Because of arrogance and prejudice, stubborn unwillingness to recognize reality, he died of reality.

In fact, there will always be such people.

They refuse to open their eyes to see reality, and refuse to recognize the comparison between their own strength and that of the enemy.

In terms of the art of war, it means "knowing neither oneself nor the enemy". If such a person does not die, who will die?

Young people see blood, adults see more, and old people see deeper.

It is nothing more than different experiences, different angles, and different positions, nothing more.

Mochizuki Taoichiro just sighed with emotion, and put the matter down.

In the final analysis, he was just an acquaintance, not his nephew's descendant, and he was worthy of his memory for such a long time.

"The shogunate is serious. After making a fuss like this, he discovered that there are so many potential lunatics. Atheism is really a legacy!"

Dongying claims that the number of believers is more than the population of residents. In fact, some people believe in multiple religions at the same time. Registered believers can theoretically believe in multiple religions at the same time, but they also need to pay money to each religion on a regular basis every month. Therefore, not everyone can actually afford it.

With such a large population base, occasionally there are still some remnants of stubborn atheists who lack piety and lurk underneath.

Yes, even in this world where anyone has a certain chance of witnessing miracles, encountering supernatural beings, and occasionally encountering monsters cannibalizing people, there are still a handful of stubborn atheists.

As far as the history of this world is concerned, the Age of Gods did not officially end until the Heian Era.

Only before modern times, for a brief period of 200 years, supernatural powers were at a low point.

That's why some people preached the theory of a godless world—that is, the world should have no divine power, no supernatural powers, and absolutely no gods and spirits.

Known in history as "animism".

This kind of speech is ridiculous, but it even spread for a time.

Of course, of course he was wrong.

Of course, everything in the world has animism. Even in the low period of extraordinary power, there are still big monsters and onmyojis active, and the gods will not never appear, but the frequency of activity will be reduced.

This person was tortured by the Ming Zhengdian, and Yu Yiji of Gaotianyuan personally descended for three days, destroying his spiritual quality with divine power, turning him into ashes, and even his name was not handed down.

This world is still a mythical world after all!

Atheism, in this world, even the underworld is not allowed after death.

However, since one has been determined to be godless, there is no need to seek the protection of the gods after death.

The ashes are gone, and it is nothing more than seeking benevolence to obtain benevolence, so why complain?

Mochizuki Taoichiro saw the actions of the shogunate from the newspaper, and he didn't think it was strange.

The important ministers of the shogunate have ranks after death, so they cannot enter Gao Tianyuan.

According to mysticism, although they are not righteous gods, they still have divinity, and they all have small godheads.

Nature will not tolerate such heresies.

Enemies can still be forgiven, but heretics must die!

"How is Kiko?"

He called the butler who was standing not far from the garden and asked.

"Master, Miss has been working hard recently."

The butler's hair was combed meticulously, he was wearing a dark suit and glasses, but he was a little older.

He thought about it, and bowed in response.

"I heard that Teacher Hepburn is very satisfied with her progress, and has already entered the practical course."

He took a printed checklist out of his pocket, scanned it, and read out the schedule.

"This afternoon, Ms. Kiko is going to inspect the Inada Bank to learn about the bank's departments and operations."

"Tomorrow morning, there will be two etiquette classes, followed by economics, and the same bank in the afternoon, but this time I will choose a department to start an internship."

"The next week will be an internship, and she will not be able to enter the next course until Teacher Hepburn confirms her progress."

"The next practical class is to understand the operation of Internet companies. It is estimated that there are seven options for the internship location."

"They are all companies controlled by the consortium, and they have taken care of all aspects. They will not expose the identity of the lady, and ensure that the lady learns enough things as quickly as possible."

"It's really hard work for her... At this age, I haven't worked so hard, and of course I don't have the learning conditions."

Only those who have consortium shares in their families are waiting for such treatment.

Mochizuki Taoichiro used more than a dozen companies, such as energy, banking, finance, and basic material processing, as a temporary field teaching place to teach his precious granddaughter.
