In the alley, in the ruins after the fire was extinguished.

Wataru Takagi held a fire extinguisher, asking the firefighters about the situation at the scene, and extinguishing the remaining sparks on the ground with a fire extinguisher.

In the place where the animal carcasses were piled up before, all the animal carcasses had been removed, and Shiratori Ren Saburo and Officer Gong Chang squatted on the ground, looking at the strange symbols on the ground together, and both frowned:

“…… Sure enough, there are also these strange symbols under these corpses tonight......"

"Officer Bow, may I ask you what these symbols mean?"

"Sorry, it's not clear yet. We once consulted a professor at Dongdu University, and he didn't know what these symbols were, but he said that they might be written and related to sacrifices......"

"Is it related to the sacrifice?" Shiratori Ren Saburo squinted, and suddenly thought of Shu Yunwen in his mind, thinking with a solemn expression, while Officer Gong turned his head to look at the entrance of the alley, and said strangely:

"What's going on outside? Since just now, the noise of the people seems to have been much quieter, have they finally dispersed?"

Officer Gong Chang was talking, and after seeing the scene at the entrance of the alley, he suddenly said "uh", and looked confused: "...... This—this is ......"

"What's going on, Officer Bow?" Shiratori noticed that Officer Bow's voice had changed, and he looked strangely at the entrance of the alley, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and then he was also confused—

What the hell is going on?

The members of the gang, who had always been kind to the people and helped to maintain order, actually squeezed a way out of the crowd? And the man who was standing in the middle of the road and was walking inside......

Is it Shu Yunwen?

What the hell is this guy doing?!

In the bewildered gaze of the two, Shu Yunwen, Loriai, and Kimishima Kana walked quickly in front of them, and then waved their hands and greeted: "...... Hello Officer Shiratori!And Officer Bow, you're okay!~"

"Uh......" The corners of Officer Gong's mouth twitched twice, and then he looked at Shu Yunwen and them with two eyes, "...... You're Kana Kimishima?The high school girl who said last night that there was a human corpse under the animal carcass?And you...... You can't be the Shu Yunwen that Twilight often talks about, right?"

"Hahaha...... That's right!~" Shu Yunwen nodded and greeted with a smile, "...... I really didn't expect Officer Twilight to mention me to you!"

"Hehehe...... yes......" Officer Bow laughed dryly, and then glanced at the black-clothed men at the entrance of the alley speechlessly, and his eyelids jumped-

Twilight's fat fox was right, look at the pomp and circumstance this guy just walked in...... It's just addicted to the underworld, and I can't extricate myself!

Officer Gong Chang complained in his heart, and then looked at Shu Yunwen and said, "...... Excuse me, but what are you guys doing when you come in?"

Officer Gong's words fell, and before Shu Yunwen could answer, Bai Bird had already spoken: "...... Officer Gong, Yunwen, they are the ones I invited to help with the investigation......"

"I see!" Officer Gong nodded when he heard this, and was about to say something more, when a police officer from the fire search department next to him shouted "Officer Gong Chief", and Gong Chang hurriedly confessed and walked away quickly.

As soon as Officer Gong left, Shiratori immediately bowed slightly to Shu Yunwen and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Yunwen, I really caused you trouble by letting you make a special trip!"

"Officer Shiratori, you're polite, it's me who caused you trouble......" Shu Yunwen spoke, swept his [Yin and Yang Eyes], and then his gaze fell on the ground in front of Shiratori, frowning, "...... This is where corpses are piled up, isn't it? And these runes......"

Bai Tori was slightly stunned when he heard Shu Yunwen's words, and then his eyes lit up and said, "...... Yoon-man-sama, do you recognize these strange symbols?"

"Yes!" Shu Yunwen nodded and explained in a low voice, "...... These are the Chiyou runes, special runes used by some evil wizards during their sacrifices......"

"Wizards, wizards?" Officer Shiratori said, his face shocked, "...... Are you telling the truth? What about this serial arson ......?"

"This is someone performing a fire sacrifice! The arsonist wants to control the flames through the fire sacrifice...... Uh......" Shu Yunwen was talking, and suddenly thought that it was not a good thing to let ordinary people know the "Fire God Sacrifice Technique", so he stopped in the middle of his words and casually ordered: "...... Well, what I just said to you is confidential, don't tell anyone else. ”

"I see, Yoon-sama, I'll keep it a secret and never tell anyone. Shiratori Ren Saburo nodded immediately, and then asked with a serious face:

“…… Yoon-man, does he have special powers as to that arsonist?"

Special powers?

In other words, if you can't find the arsonist before the fire festival is completed, that guy will have the power to control the fire once the fire festival is completed.

The one who controls the fire god horse is naturally nothing to Shu Yunwen, who has Chengshi, a fire ghost, but ordinary people will definitely be helpless in the face of such a "monster".

"The arsonist...... He is not simple, and there are some dangers. As for the special powers......"

Shu Yunwen didn't answer directly, but took out a lighter and leaned in front of the rune in front of him to light the fire: "When you are investigating, you'd better be careful......

Officer Shiratori was slightly stunned, thinking about Shu Yunwen's words, and then saw that on the ground in front of him, those runes that were written in unknown words were burning one after another, and finally formed a green flame rune.

Shiratori looked at this scene, and the boss with his mouth open, asked in disbelief, "...... This—this is ......"

"Runes and the power of the dark world ......" Shu Yunwen replied casually, looking at the white bird who was shocked a little proudly, "...... All in all, try to be careful......"

Shu Yunwen's words fell, and the white bird looked at the burning green runes in front of him and fell into deep thought.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of "careful" from the side, Shu Yunwen and the others looked up, only to see Takagi Wataru holding a fire extinguisher in his hand, rushing to Shu Yunwen and them with a "whoosh", and then turned on the fire extinguisher, and the "snort" burst of spray, and everyone suddenly fell into a piece of dry powder of the fire extinguisher.

After a few seconds, Takagi took the fire extinguisher away and said with a sigh of relief, "...... It's so strange, how can this place catch fire?"

As Takagi spoke, the dry powder around him finally dispersed, and Shu Yunwen, Loriai, Kana Kimishima and Shiratori, who were gray-faced, all looked at Takagi with a black line, and made Takagi's scalp numb:

"Uh...... Sorry, I saw it was on fire, that's why I ...... Are you all right?"

Shu Yunwen slapped the dry powder on his body, gritted his teeth and said, "...... What do you say?!"

Damn, I pretended to be here with someone, deliberately ignited the runes, and you came to put out the fire......

Okay, let's not talk about extinguishing fires or anything, what do you mean by spraying dry powder on me?

You're doing something, aren't you? bandit!!
