Chapter 357. Media gathering
Shinji Fujinami was not taken away, but imprisoned in the dungeon of Ise Jingu.
This dungeon is located in the underground of the shrine complex, and it is not only for prisoners, but also for strangers.
For example, the worm that attacked Atsuta Jingu Shrine before and stole the Tiancong Cloud Sword was suppressed in the dungeon of Ise Jingu at this moment.
The way to suppress these monsters is to use various techniques to block their senses and spiritual powers, and imprison them in extremely dark prisons.
This is not a simple cell that can be robbed at any time in the movie, but a ban built of protected cypress wood and various forbidden charms, and the youkai who stay in it cannot move freely, but are only hung in chains, always in a posture, unable to see or perceive anything, and can only spend the rest of their lives in eternal darkness.
Because the soul killer has spiritual powers, if you stay in an ordinary prison, it is very likely that you will use your own techniques to make some prison escape moves, or attract monsters to take advantage of the chaos to escape, so most of the crimes related to the soul killer are imprisoned in the shrine dungeon that cooperates with the police.
Qiao Qiao learned about this incident at the morning meeting the next day, and it was Fujiba Shinji's grandfather, the current Shaogong Si Fujiba Teruyo, who announced the incident.
I don't know if it's Qiao Qiao's illusion, when the old man said this, his voice was full of heavy helplessness and disappointment.
The death penalty rate in Wakuni is very low, and there have even been prisoners who brutally killed their mothers and children but have not been sentenced to death for 20 years, and Fujinashi Shinji's crime is not known how it will be tried.
Qiao Qiao didn't care too much.
In the afternoon, patrol time as usual.
Because of the murder, patrols became even more important, and it wasn't just apprentice shrine maidens and probationary priests like Kuroda Makoto, but each team was staffed with a full-fledged cleric.
Outside the shrine, a lot of reporters gathered.
"Journalists?"
Kuroda looked curiously at the people who were waiting outside the shrine with cameras and microphones.
Ise City is probably not as busy as it has been, and there are a lot more people visiting today.
"The killings were revealed, that's why there are so many people."
Qiao Qiao guessed.
"Do you know about the Ise Jingu murder?"
"Do you know Shinji Fujina, and what kind of person is he?"
"I heard that Shinji Fujinami killed because of an emotional dispute, what is the relationship between him and the deceased?"
"Do you know what kind of person the deceased's boyfriend Koji Tanizaki was?"
"Did you choose to visit today because of the murder that happened the day before yesterday?"
In this way, the reporters chased and intercepted the clergy who left the shrine to go on patrol.
It even affected the tourists who came to pay homage.
The guards at the shrine had to chase away the reporters to protect the normal tourists, but some reporters simply pretended to be ordinary tourists and could be seen from time to time as the guards took the reporters out and took them away.
"It's scary."
Qiao Qiao's ears came the voice of Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa.
"Who are these people?"
"It's a reporter, I don't know where I heard the news, it's approaching the New Year's Festival, and there is such big news in Ise Jingu, I'm afraid they all want to get first-hand information."
Qiao Qiao replied.
To be honest, this is not the right time to send the shrine officials out of the shrine, but if you don't act as usual, it will make the citizens feel uneasy, so you will send official shrine maidens and priests to follow.
He glanced at Jun Kuroda behind him.
She seemed to be slightly angry because Qiao Qiao had doubted herself, and followed the two without saying a word.
On the one hand, Koji Tanizaki was devastated by the death of his girlfriend, and on the other hand, he was also involved in this incident, so he stayed in the shrine today and did not go out.
"Journalists? Is it the one who writes the news? ”
Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa probably still knew what a reporter did, and through Qiao Qiao's eyes, she looked at those media people.
"That's right, the media, but most of them are moldy bodies that eat human blood steamed buns."
"Human blood steamed buns? Sounds scary. ”
Naturally, Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa didn't know the meaning behind this word.
"That's what it means to consume the dead."
Qiao Qiao explained in a low voice while avoiding the reporters.
"Among these people, there is probably not a single one who really feels sorry for the deceased, and they are all people who come here with a gimmick of curiosity, wanting to be the first to release the news, or use this incident to attack Ise Jingu and even the soul killer."
"It's too much."
Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa looked at those people through the bronze mirror and said.
At this time, Kuroda Makoto was stopped by two men.
"This shrine maiden, do you know Shinji Fujina, I heard that he used his power as a soul slayer to commit a vicious crime, what do you spirit slayers think of this?"
"I heard that Ise Jingu just locked him up in his cell, are you going to cover it up?"
The two of them grabbed Kuroda Makoto, and they didn't mean to let her go at all.
"This ...... Get out of the way. ”
Kuroda Makoto is a little distressed, but she is not tough herself, and it is difficult for her to escape the pursuit of these people.
"Your Ise Jingu has had a previous incident of colluding with youkai in order to compete for the position of the young palace division, does this mean that the existence of the soul slayer is far more dangerous than everyone thinks?"
"Does this incident mean that the inheritance mechanism of traditional shrines led by Ise Jingu is outdated, and a more democratic and open way should be used to choose the heir?"
Seeing that Kuroda Makoto was stopped, more reporters ran over.
For a while, the little witch was surrounded by a group and it was difficult to get out.
"Get out of the way."
Jun Kuroda shouted, but the voice was quickly drowned out by the noise of the reporters.
The guards also rushed over and tried to pull the reporters away.
The scene was in chaos for a while.
"Qiao San, aren't you going to help?"
Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa asked.
"Well, indeed, there is no way to complete today's work if this continues."
Qiao Qiao thought about it, and subconsciously touched his arms, wanting to take out a pistol to fire a warning shot.
But nothing was touched.
“? Josan what are you doing? ”
Sayaka Kita-Shirakawa was a little confused.
"Occupational Habits ......"
Qiao Qiao replied, he could only move forward.
Relying on his physique, he quickly squeezed into the group of reporters and came to Kuroda Makoto's side.
"Josan ?"
Kuroda Makoto had an expression that was about to cry, and when she saw Qiao Qiao, she immediately hid behind him.
"Priest, do you have any information to provide?"
A reporter saw Qiao Qiao and turned the microphone to him.
Several people saw Qiao Qiao take the initiative to come over, and they also looked over.
Qiao Qiao faced the camera and the camera, was silent for a moment, and then spoke.
"You journalists, don't listen to the wind or the rain, you always want to make a big news."
