White mist, after a burst of white mist, twenty-five people disappeared, leaving no trace. ⊙，

Yamashita Ming's statement made Chi Shang Zhenyi scratch his head a little when he heard it, the disappearance of these twenty-five people was indeed a little weird, but it disappeared after a burst of white fog, he had never heard of such a thing.

And Chi Shang really dared to guarantee that such a strange white mist devouring the living would definitely not be something that science could explain clearly now, and it seemed that this time the matter was going to be linked to those demons and monsters again.

"Twenty-five people disappeared after a burst of white fog, according to what Yamashita-kun said, then I'm afraid this matter is no longer something that your government can solve, this is obviously beyond the scope of scientific and technological explanations, why doesn't Yamashita-kun want to report such a matter to Tokyo and let Tokyo send someone to solve it?"

Chi Shang's sincere question made Yamashita's face change, and he paused for a while before he replied: "I'm not afraid to make Chi Shangjun laugh when I say it, this time the large-scale disappearance of personnel, of course, will be reported to Tokyo according to the meaning of the following, after all, this is the life of twenty-five people, but sometimes things are not decided by one person." ”

Speaking of this, Yamashita Akira said with a wry smile: "There are many times in the officialdom that I can't help myself, this time twenty-five people disappeared at once, if this matter is truthfully reported to Tokyo according to the meaning of the next, then there will be a large-scale official baptism in this Ihara City, after all, there are many retired soldiers who are idle at home." ”

"If those people know about it, they will definitely make a big fuss, and the current government leaders are afraid that a large number of people will be held accountable, and even the next may not be spared. ”

"This is a matter of vital interest for many people, even if Yamashita is the mayor of Ihara City, he can't change it, if he must report this matter to the next level, I'm afraid those people will tear me apart. ”

It was because of this that Yamashita gave in and chose to hide the disappearance of the person from the report. Afterwards, we decided to suppress the disappearance and count it among the lost refugees, which was actually very uneasy in our hearts. ”

Chi Shang sincerely looked at Yamashita Akira who was defending himself with tears in his eyes on the other side, although the other party said that he had wanted to report to Tokyo, but he would not believe it, after all, he still understood the sentence that this person would not be destroyed for himself.

For Akira Yamashita's choice, Chi Shang Zhenyi doesn't care too much. Whether the other party really has the intention to report to Tokyo, or whether he is falsely coaxing, these have nothing to do with him.

Chi Shang Zhenyi came mainly for Xizi's parents this time, and as for the twenty-five missing people, he didn't want to care about them, because these people had nothing to do with him, and if they were lost, they would be lost.

There are too many injustices in the world, if you have to come forward to help someone shovel it every time you see it, then Chi Shangzhen is afraid that he will offend a lot of people. So he didn't feel much about Akira Yamashita's approach.

In Chi Shangzhenyi's heart, this nosy thing is to do what he can, in his heart, if he can't figure out the people around him, and he has to meddle in things, it is purely full of food.

Chi Shang Zhenyi's current external identity is that of the emperor's imperial onmyoji, this identity may be very tall for ordinary people, but it is nothing for those who are powerful.

Usually, if Chi Shang really wants to live his own life, none of those powerful people will provoke him. After all, the emperor's position as the imperial onmyoji is also bluffing, and no one will trouble him when he is full.

But if Ji Shang really wants to be a hero. If there is nothing to help people eradicate injustices, then he will quickly set up a large number of secret enemies, these people may not deal with him openly, but they will not make him feel better, he absolutely believes this, after all, this evil and harmful villain is everywhere.

If you get entangled in those villains. That Chi Shang Zhenyi doesn't have to think about developing and growing the Chi Shang family steadily, just calculate with those people every day, this is not what he wants.

This time, Yamashita Akira took the initiative to confess to Chi Shang about the missing person, and he understood what was going on, because he had already mentioned the matter of the missing person. This makes it impossible for the other party to hide.

What's more important is that Yamashita Akira is probably testing him a little to see what Chi Shang really means about this matter, otherwise Yamashita Akira will not tell those twists and turns.

"Yamashita-kun's hardships can be experienced below, sometimes personal wishes have indeed changed too much, in the big dye vat of officialdom, if you want to survive better, it is still delicate with the light, Yamashita-kun rest assured that I am just here to find someone this time, and other things will not be taken care of, so Yamashita-kun does not have to worry about things leaking. ”

Yamashita Ming was a little worried after saying what he had just said, for fear that Chi Shang Zhenyi was the kind of righteous young man who couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes.

Now hearing the four words Heguang Tongchen from Chi Shang's true mouth, Yamashita Ming immediately put his heart down, because he believed that Chi Shang Zhenyi could say these four words, which meant that the other party was very politically minded, and finally heard Chi Shang's sincere reassurance, and his heart had already fallen.

Although the four words of light and dust are Chinese idioms, Yamashita Ming still understands them, which probably means not showing their edge, living in peace with the world, mixing with the surroundings, and blending into it.

After knowing Chi Shang's sincere attitude, Yamashita Ming simply wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and said: "Thank you Chi Shangjun for being considerate, Yamashita will definitely compensate the families of those missing people, and do his best to help those people." ”

Akira Yamashita's assurance, Chi Shang Zhenyi won't care, he came this time to do something, as for how the other party is, he doesn't want to care too much.

However, after such a conversation, Chi Shang's impression of Yamashita Akira was much worse, and he felt that the other party was not as sincere as he was when he paid for Kino Mountain Village before, and now the other party is an old fritter in officialdom, this kind of person He has already made a plan in his heart, he can have a relationship but not a deep friendship.

Perhaps because he felt that the play was already in place, Yamashita Ming asked Chi Shangzhen sincerely, "I don't know which two Chi Shangjun wants to look for this time?"

"Kiyochi Chiba and Tamako Chiba. ”

Hearing Chi Shang Zhenyi say these two names, Yamashita Ming's face froze obviously, although he quickly eased up, but Chi Shang Zhenyi still saw it in his eyes.

"Ahem"

After coughing softly, Yamashita Ming said with some embarrassment: "I didn't expect that the people Chi Shangjun was looking for were actually the Chiba couple, if it was really these two friends of Chi Shangjun." That what you say down will keep them. ”

The words in Yamashita Ming's mouth Chi Shang really heard some different tastes, but he didn't open his mouth to ask, just listened quietly, he believed that the other party would not have anything to hide after saying this.

"This Chiba couple happens to be the personnel of our Ihara City Geological Exploration Institute, among which Chiba Kiyoichi is the director of the Geological Exploration Institute, and the five geological exploration personnel are all his subordinates. ”

"Of the twenty-five people who were swallowed by the white mist this time. All five personnel from the Geological Exploration Institute were among them, and Chiba Seiichi found out about it afterwards and wanted to go to Oda River again to check, but his decision was refuted by me, and it wasn't until someone came to me a few days ago to report that Chiba Kiyoichi and his wife left a note, and the couple went to Oda River to explore privately, and I didn't know about it. ”

Speaking of this, Yamashita Akira seemed to be trying to win a good impression of Chi Shang's sincerity, and hurriedly said: "I also sent someone to look for the couple afterwards, but nothing has been found. ”

Hearing this, Ji Shang's true meaning has already understood. His father-in-law and mother-in-law are still a pair of very adventurous people, very knowledgeable about dangerous things**, in order to find out the missing person actually went to the danger in person, ignoring the government's orders, it seems that he is really a professional scholar.

"Yamashita-kun doesn't know what the situation is at that Odagawa now, how much do you know about the situation there?"

Seeing that Chi Shang Zhenyi did not blame himself for not keeping the Chiba couple, Yamashita was slightly relieved in his heart.

"When people disappeared in Odagawa, our government sent people to set up barricades to block pedestrians. ”

Akira Yamashita's words made Chi Shang's heart move. Then he hurriedly spoke: "Yamashita-kun, are you saying that your government set up roadblocks to stop pedestrians from advancing after the white mist swallowed people?"

"Yes. As soon as we learned of the White Mist time, we sent someone to block the main road to Odagawa, after all, we don't know if anything strange will happen here. ”

Akira Yamashita's words made Chi Shang Zhenyi breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time thought in his heart: "According to Akira Yamashita, the road will be closed after the White Mist Incident, so that Shioko's parents will not be able to enter through that road. ”

"It seems that my restless old man and mother-in-law may not have an accident, but I still have to go to Odagawa as soon as possible to see. Find these two people early and bring them back. ”

At this point, Chi Shang Zhenyi had already figured out most of it, and immediately turned his head to look at the sky outside, and found that the sky was still very bright.

Chi Shang was really unwilling to delay time, in order to get Xizi's parents back as soon as possible, he immediately said to Yamashita Ming: "Yamashita-kun." I see that it is still very bright outside, if it is convenient, please send me a car, I will go to Odagawa as soon as possible, after all, I have come this time to be entrusted by someone. ”

Hearing that Chi Shang Zhenyi was going to leave for Oda River immediately, Yamashita Akira was a little surprised, because he didn't expect that this Chiba couple would be so important to Chi Shang Zhenyi, so that Chi Shang Zhenyi was not even willing to rest, and he had to leave to find it immediately after learning about the matter.

This made Yamashita clearly see that the relationship between the two sides is definitely not simple, if this Chiba couple can return safely this time, he will definitely get along with that Chiba Qingyi in the future, not for anything else just to be able to Chi Shang Zhenyi's relationship is closer, and it is necessary to make some investment.

Although Chi Shangzhen wanted to leave immediately, but if he was polite, Yamashita would not fall, so he immediately opened his mouth and said: "Chi Shangjun came from afar, and he is about to leave before he has eaten a mouthful of hot rice, is this a little too anxious, if you can, please stay and leave after eating, Yamashita has already asked his subordinates to prepare meals." ”

Regarding Yamashita Ming's meal retention, Chi Shang Zhenyi didn't think too much about it and refused: "Thank you Yamashita-kun for your kindness, I came this time to be entrusted by someone, and everything is mainly to find people, so I won't eat this meal, now I still ask Yamashita-kun to send a car to send me to Odagawa first." ”

Hearing Chi Shang's sincere refusal, Yamashita Akira was not surprised, but he had already thought about it, since he couldn't eat together, he definitely had to accompany the other party to Odagawa.

After Ikesho really helped Akira Yamashita rescue Kino Yamamura, he received a call from Kishigero Bihara, who was still Prime Minister at the time, shortly afterwards, which made him pay more attention to this onmyoji who helped him.

Afterwards, Yamashita Akira deliberately asked someone to inquire in detail, learned about the Hiroshima Chishang family, and found that the other party's inheritance had been hundreds of years, which made him know the other party's heritage, and afterwards decided that he must get along with each other when he has the opportunity in the future.

Now that the opportunity has finally come, Yamashita Akira will definitely not send a driver to follow, he must be accompanied by him personally, if he can't grasp such a good opportunity to get closer to each other, then he doesn't have to be the mayor of this Ihara City anymore, hurry back to the village to farm.

"Chi Shangjun is polite, he didn't think about it enough, of course saving people is more important than eating, I immediately ordered someone to prepare the car, and I accompanied Chi Shangjun to go in person. ”

After finishing speaking, Yamashita Ming didn't wait for Chi Shang to say anything more, and immediately got up and walked out of the house, and went outside to order someone to prepare the car.

Yamashita Ming was very fast, and he came back in less than five minutes after going out, with some sweat on his face, obviously he ran over and ran back, which made Chi Shang Zhenyi very useful, after all, the other party is the mayor, and the two have no direct interests, the other party can be like this, which can be regarded as giving him enough face.

Chi Shang really understood that the other party was deliberately currying favor with himself, although the other party was a bit of a philistine, but he had to admit that the other party was indeed a smart person.

"Chi Shangjun, the car has been found, let's hurry up! If we set off now, I estimate that we should be able to reach the boundary of the Odagawa River before it gets dark at night, there are a few families nearby, and now the barricade team is also stationed there, we can spend the night there, and the next morning we will start out there, and we will soon be able to reach the stone bridge." ”

Listening to Yamashita Ming's arrangement, Chi Shangzhen thought about it for a while and felt that what the other party said was indeed good, so he replied immediately: "Then thank you Yamashita-kun." ”

Seeing that Chi Shangzhen agreed with his statement, Yamashita Ming immediately said happily: "Oh, Chi Shangjun is polite, let's leave now!"

Chi Shang Zhenyi followed the guidance of Akira Yamashita to the jeep downstairs, the two opened the door and got into the car, and the car started directly, and walked out of the territory of the relief house in a puff of smoke, and embarked on the journey to Odagawa. (To be continued......)
