Chapter 35 Guess it's a Sichuan otter

"Respected Onmyoji-sama, I have something to say." Kumi came to several onmyoji and bowed politely.

The onmyoji frowned slightly, and looked at Kumi and Reedichiro together.

One of the younger Onmyoji, seeing the long water spirit of Jiumei, was a little moved and wanted to perform well.

"Is there anything I can do to help you, this young lady?" The young onmyoji stepped forward and asked kindly

Kumi raised her head and said very seriously, "A few minutes ago, I met a strange person on the wooden bridge, and I suspected that it was a youkai. ”

Hearing this, the faces of the onmyoji present changed greatly.

One of the older Onmyoji came over and asked kindly, "Miss San, can you talk about it carefully?" ”

"Hmm!" Kumi nodded, and carefully explained what happened before, as well as her own inferences.

After listening to Jiumi's analysis, the onmyoji nodded frequently, feeling that there was some truth.

But after all, Kumi is an ordinary person, and it is still a bit difficult to convince the Onmyoji completely.

"Miss San, I don't know what to call you?" The elder Onmyoji asked.

Kumi thought about it and immediately said, "My name is Kumi and I'm from Edogawa Ward. Yakazu Jida is my uncle. ”

Hearing Zaiwa Jida, the older Onmyoji's eyes were shocked, and the rest of the Onmyoji also reacted in the same way.

They looked at Kumi in amazement.

Kumi had a calm face, as if she had expected such a reaction.

After a short silence.

The elder Onmyoji bowed down and smiled: "It turned out to be Mr. Zaihe, he also guided me a few years ago, and he can be regarded as my mentor." ”

The rest of the onmyoji also bowed with their upper bodies bowed.

For a moment, they looked at Kumi's gaze with a bit of respect.

Kumi crossed her mouth, very proud in her heart.

After that, the onmyoji started a discussion and decided to go and see the weirdo.

Soon, the group came to the wooden bridge.

But on the wooden bridge, the long-haired woman was no longer there.

After all, more than ten minutes have passed, and I definitely won't stay here forever.

Although Kumi knows this in her heart, she is still a little lucky.

But in fact, it's really as I guessed before, and I can't help but feel a little pity.

"Miss Kumi, where did that weirdo appear?" The elder Onmyoji asked seriously with a calm face.

"It should be there." Kumi pointed to the center of the bridge.

Seeing the solemn expressions of the onmyoji, she thought to herself, "Could it be that there is something to discover?" ”

I saw that the onmyoji were standing in the middle of the bridge, forming a circle.

With a charm in their hand, they threw it into the air and chanted it quickly.

In a short time, the spell quickly burned in the air, turning into points of light like sand.

The point of light fell on the bridge deck and slowly dimmed.

After a few seconds, the elder Onmyoji said loudly, "Sure enough, it's a youkai." ”

When Kumi heard this, she immediately ran over.

I saw a strange footprint on the bridge deck, as if it had been left by some kind of animal.

Kumi carefully observed the footprints, combined with some previous speculations, and soon a monster figure popped up in her mind.

"I see." Kumi exclaimed.

The elder Onmyoji was stunned for a moment, looked at Kumi, and said, "Miss Kumi, do you know what kind of monster this is?" ”

"Uh-huh!" Kumi nodded confidently, "This monster is called a river otter." ”

"Otters?" The Onmyoji expressed uncertainty.

Seeing that they didn't believe it, Kumi explained, "According to the Yokai Chronicle, the river otter would take on a human form, and would often put on a kimono and pretend to be a beautiful woman to attack passers-by. ”

Hearing this, the onmyoji discussed again.

Kumi felt that her reasoning was not unreasonable.

She touched her chin and looked like Detective Conan.

In her mind, she reorganized her reasoning logic.

Although the otter can transform into a humanoid form, it will remain its main form in some places.

It's like the 'weirdo' I bumped into on the wooden bridge before.

Why did she cover half of her face with her hair, she must have that side as her physical appearance.

In addition to these, she has a strong piece of evidence.

Because the otter likes to stay in the water and often comes into contact with aquatic plants, it will have a smell of aquatic plants.

On the wooden bridge, it has had physical contact with Ichiro Reed, and it will definitely leave a smell of aquatic plants.

No, a certain piece of the back of Reed Ichiro's clothes has a strong smell of aquatic plants.

Therefore, combined with the above characteristics, it must be a Sichuan otter.

After a minute, the onmyoji ended their discussion.

They looked at the time.

At this time, there is only about an hour before the magic time.

The elder Onmyoji walked over and smiled kindly, "Miss Kumi, thank you very much for the clues you came up with this time.

We will report your inferences to the relevant adults.

However, now that the time is approaching, please go home as soon as possible.

If you feel like you're running out of time, you can take refuge at a nearby shrine.

I think that with the reputation of Zai and the teacher, they will definitely welcome you. ”

After hearing this, Kumi looked at Ichiro Reed, wanting to hear his opinion.

Ichiro Reed's eyes wandered, and he didn't care about the wooden bridge monster.

Seeing this, Kumi can only make her own decisions.

She thought about it and decided not to go home and stay in Shinjuku.

She wanted to make sure her inference was correct.

"Onmyoji-sama, thank you for the reminder, but I'd better go home! You also have to protect yourselves, and I wish you to destroy the monsters as soon as possible. ”

Saying yes, Kumi pulled Reed Ichiro and walked in the direction of the station.

When she was far enough, she changed her route and went looking for the hotel to get up.

However, I found a few hotels, which were either closed or did not have rooms.

Kumi kicked her feet at the lamp pole on the side of the road, feeling very irritable.

Ichiro Reeds put his hands in his trouser pockets, sometimes looking around, sometimes looking at Kumi.

Today, the sun has set in the west, less than an hour away from the time of the demon.

At this time, all traffic in Tokyo has stopped.

It's hard to go back now.

Seeing that time passed little by little, Kumi's heart became even more irritable.

"Is it true that you can only go to the shrine?"

Kumi looked at Ichiro Reed.

Ichiro Reed knows what the other person thinks.

"No, you can't go to the shrine." Ichiro Reed gave her a glaring look.

"Why?" Kumi said she was puzzled and looked at Ichiro Reed.

Reed Ichiro didn't give an explanation, twisted his eyebrows, and said very seriously: "Anyway, no." ”

"Humph!" Kumi clasped her hands to her chest and stuck out her tongue, "If you don't go, you won't go, then we'll sleep on the street." ”

Ichiro Reed ignored her.

I wonder why this is the case in Tokyo today.

In the final analysis, it's not that Reed Ichiro used too much force and accidentally destroyed the Thunder God Law Body.

In this way, the monsters will take advantage of the situation.

But this can't all be blamed on Ichiro Reed, it's not that Thor is too ugly to hear.

The word 'Yeliang' is his bottom line.

Could it be that being expelled by the gods of Takamagahara means that it is a wild rao?

Ichiro Reed doesn't admit it.

He firmly believed that one day, he could build a large shrine.

Believers are found in every corner of the world.

Let the gods of the plateau mountain regret their original decision.

Nowadays, the dream is getting closer and closer, and it will soon be achieved.

Thinking of this, Ichiro Reed began to laugh nervously again.

Kumi glanced sideways, and on her forehead was a large '? I don't understand why the other person is laughing.

Long.

retracted his gaze, looked at the street of Sutiao, and said helplessly: "Could it be that you really have to sleep on the street?" ”

At this moment, from an alley, a man wearing a black cap and sunglasses walked up.

He sneaked around, glanced around, and slowly approached Kumi and them.
