Volume 1 Chapter 9 Lady Tamamo

Two bullets, two wails.

The vicious dogs that had their heads blown off were swept away by the impact of the bullets, revealing a fleshy and dying Bodie. Xuan Yi raised his eyebrows, and looked in the direction of the gunfire behind him, at the door of the cold storage, Zheng Yi was panting and leaning on the broken wall, his right hand holding the gun trembling and hanging to the side, and the muzzle of the gun floated from the smoke after the fire.

"Didn't I say tell you to lie down and not move. Xuan Yi wiped the short knife clean, and then inserted it back into the windbreaker one by one.

"Although...... Thank you so much for saving my life, he deserves to die, but I'm a ...... after all Cough...... The police. Zheng Yi endured the severe pain caused by the fracture, "He can't just be bitten to death by a dog, that's too cheap for him...... Please leave it to me, he should be tried by law before he can be executed, please......"

"Huh...... The law. Xuan Yi lifted his black-rimmed glasses, and a meaningless smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "It seems that escaping from me is the cheapest for him." He tilted his head and thought for a moment, "That's it, he'll leave it to you, and I shouldn't have interfered in this matter in my position." He leaned over and grabbed Bodie by the ankle, and then threw the cold storage like garbage in the latter's exclamation, slammed it on the ground in the alley, and passed out on the spot.

"Thank you......" The pistol landed, Zheng Yi couldn't hold it anymore, and collapsed on the ground with a soft foot, panting heavily. "You're working too hard, officer, this isn't a good fit for this city. Xuan Yi walked outside the house and picked up the double-barreled shotgun that he had just thrown aside, and stuffed it into his trench coat like a trick.

"Huh...... I really don't have the strength, I want to sleep first, Mr. Xuan, thank you really this time......" Zheng Yi used his last strength to tie Bodi's wrist to himself, smiled at Xuan Yi reluctantly, and then before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground and began to fall asleep. Xuan Yi pondered for a moment, then turned his head and shouted at the statue-like figure at the entrance of the alley—

"Hey, Old Chen. Come here. ”

I saw that the short figure fell to the ground suddenly, just as he said, he did not dare to move his body until now, and the sweat and other liquids of horror even accumulated a small puddle under his feet. "Mr. Xuan, yes, what are your orders?" asked Lao Chen in a panicked voice wiping the cold sweat on his face.

"I've signaled to the police department, and at their speed, they'll start searching the area in a little while, and I need someone to guide them here. Xuan Yi patted Lao Chen's shoulder and said seriously. "That'...... Then how should I guide them to get here first?" a bad premonition rose in Lao Chen's heart.

"Good question, use this. ”

The large-caliber revolver that he took out out of nowhere opened fire, and Lao Chen's left kneecap burst open in this sudden attack, only to hear the terrible screams that instantly pierced through the sky over the old city. Xuan Yi turned the revolver between his fingers a few times like a gunslinger in a western, and then neatly inserted the gun belt back into his waist: "Now start screaming at this volume until the police search team can find this place, understand?"

"Ming, understood, thank you Mr. Xuan for not killing!Ahhh——!!h Xuan nodded, and the ground under his feet suddenly exploded, and he suddenly soared into the air with amazing bounce force, only to see the black figure leap between the walls of the alley a few times, and then disappear into the moonlight. Not far away, the siren sounded, from far to near, the night sky was intertwined with red and blue lights, police officers, police dogs, special forces, and medical personnel began to enter the anonymous report site, and the alley gradually became noisy......

Two days later, Rain City, Millennium Bar.

"Shocked! The Pioneers of Justice in Rain City! The Case of the Disappearance of Many Girls Solved!"

Xuan Yi sat on the bar, boredly flipping through the newspaper, and reports about Bodi and Zheng Yi filled almost every corner of the newspaper, making Xuan Yi, who wanted to find a gossip news to have some fun, a little unhappy.

"Big brother, how many times have I told you, my bar is not open during the day, and it doesn't make breakfast, and there is no fried tofu brain!. The curtain on the back door was lifted, and a purple-skinned girl dressed in gothic style walked in angrily, holding a plate of steaming pasta in her hand, "Na, that's all I'll do!

"Wow, my sister who has grown up doesn't even want to take care of my brother's food, the world is hot and cold, and people's hearts are not ancient. Xuan Yi sighed exaggeratedly, and then ate the pasta mixed with tomato meat sauce with a happy face, "It's delicious!

"I can't help it. The girl pouted helplessly, and was about to pick up a towel to wipe the cup, when suddenly, the door of the bar was pushed open. "I'm sorry, it's not open yet, so I'm going to wait—why are you?"

The girl's commercial smile that greeted customers was distorted at the sight of the visitor, and the mixture of disgust, arrogance, and disdain was expressed with extreme precision on her otherwise slightly seductive face. And the one who opened the door was a little black-haired girl with neat short hair.

She was about ten years old, her small face was like a porcelain doll, but she had a cold expression like an ice cellar, and her bangs were so long that people could barely see her eyes. And her costume is even more peculiar, not the dress worn by ordinary children, but a meticulous and specially customized children's version of the butler costume.

"Sir, there is a guest who wants to see you. The housekeeper girl ignored the girl who was looking at her face, "It's Mrs. Tamamo." Would you like to let her in?"

"Yes. Xuan Yi quickly poured all the pasta on the plate into his mouth, and then covered the plate with newspaper, and his face returned to his usual calm and indifferent expression, "Let her in." ”

The housekeeper girl nodded, turned around and said something outside, then opened the door and made a "please come in" gesture. A geta stepped into the bar, and it was a white-haired old woman in a kimono, whose face had been carved by the years of vicissitudes, but her eyes still sparkled like a young man's.

"Mr. Xuanyi. Mrs. Yuzao saluted slightly and said in Chinese, not very proficient, "Thank you very much for helping your only granddaughter a few days ago. ”

"Isn't it all said in the newspapers that this Officer Zheng did it? Xuan Yi pulled out a chair, "Please be seated." ”

"Don't use this kind of talk to perfunctory old people, Mr. Xuanyi. When the old woman who had just sat down heard this, she couldn't help but smile, and a fox-like smile appeared in the corner of her eyes, "In this rain city, will there be even a trace of information that will be missed by the Yuzao family?" "Ah...... That's right, too. Xuan Yi scratched his head, "Okay." Actually, the little girl's mother came to entrust me, and she specifically told me not to let you know, but I didn't expect you to come in person. How's the girl doing now?"

"She's in a good condition, after all, she's not injured, she's just a little frightened, child, and she's recovered in a few days. Lady Tamamo raised her hand, the sleeves of her robe swept off the table, and a fox-faced business card painted in the style of ukiyo-e appeared in front of Xuanyi. "...... is this?" Xuan picked up his business card and glanced at it, there was no address, no name, just a painting of a fox smiling face with a smile.

"The little girl is a strong child, and she never discusses any difficulties with her family, and always finds a way to solve them by herself. Mothers naturally want to express their gratitude to those who have helped them. The old woman faded her smile and her expression became more serious, "This is a fox talisman, which means that the nine-tailed fox clan must repay the favor owed." Mr. Xuanyi, if you need any help, just give it to anyone with the Tamamo family crest. Lady Yuzao stood up and bowed slightly, "Then, the old body will take the first step." Faux rude します (farewell, goodbye), Mr. Xuanyi. ”

After that, I saw that Mrs. Tamamo's figure suddenly collapsed down, and suddenly turned into a set of cherry blossoms scattered on the ground, a gust of incense blew through, and the petals fluttered all over the sky, and finally rolled out of the door and disappeared.

"It's really a hurry to come and go. ”

In fact, it is just a matter of giving some money.

But I can't say that.

Xuan Yi looked at the fox-faced business card between his fingers with a tangled face, and then turned his hand quite casually into the hand of the housekeeper girl on the side: "Brienne, go back and find a place to use it as a bookmark...... Hmm, what are you looking at?" Brienne didn't move in a rare way, her eyes under her bangs staring straight at the screen of her phone that she had just received the message.

"Master, that ......" Brienne showed an extremely nervous expression on her little face, and raised the screen in her hand to Xuan's side with a slight trembling, "Our account, it seems, there are many more zeros?"

"Huh?"
