Chapter Twenty-Seven: Tremendous Progress (Self-Righteousness

"Then again, I heard that Hitomiko was also a shrine maiden before, so are you a working witch or a full-time witch?"

Back in the room, the girl knelt on the tatami mat, and then asked Hitomi with interest while helping Hitomi arrange the quilt.

Some people are indeed born with incomparably dazzling and desirable people, just like the bellflower, and the same is true of the pupil. It's just that she didn't notice it, or should I say she was used to it before.

But this girl really felt extremely happy and joyful, obviously at the beginning I heard that someone was going to stay at the shrine, and she was still a little difficult, but then she suddenly felt that it was really good!

It's not like it at first sight, but it feels like it at first sight, and I can't help but feel close.

The delicate and flawless facial features of a puppet, the long black hair falling like a waterfall, the calm and indifferent demeanor, and the awe-inspiring and clear voice...... How so? There is an unimaginable feeling of heroism and handsomeness, which fully meets all the expectations of the girl.

It's two years older than Hitomi, but not only does Hitomi think she's just an immature sister, but even she herself subconsciously has a feeling that Hitomi is her sister, but she didn't find it herself.

"Chihaya-san, I'll do this...... You don't have to be so polite...... Moreover, it's late at this time, aren't you going back to your room? ”

Hitomi didn't answer the girl's question directly, but only whispered something else, euphemistically reminding the other party that he should go back to his room to rest at this time.

Five hundred years ago, she was out of step with this era, and it was even difficult to regard the girl in front of her who was just an ordinary person and had no spiritual power as a "witch".

- Therefore, it is naturally even more impossible to understand what the other party means by "working witches" and "working shrine maidens".

In order to prevent too many words from being lost, Hitomi can only cope with the past in a similar way. She knew that her best now was to listen more and talk less, and try not to answer any questions directly.

Even if you think you understand a question, you can't answer it easily. Because it is very likely that it is just that you think you understand, but in fact, what the other person is saying is not the same thing as what you understand.

Once or twice may be fine, but there is always a chance that something will not feel right.

And if it were more often, she would definitely be suspicious, and she didn't want to expose problems that didn't belong to this era so quickly.

"Ah, I've said it, in fact, it's okay to call me a thousand years ago, Hitomi, don't be so angry......"

The girl named Chihaya didn't feel anything wrong at all.,It's just that her attention was naturally shifted to another aspect.。

"I'll be back soon, just Hitomi...... Is it really okay for you to be on your own? ”

Speaking of this, the girl named Chihaya carefully watched the changes in Hitomi's expression and eyes, and couldn't help muttering in her heart.

Didn't you say that something sad had happened? Why does it seem that she is so plain and calm, and the faint sense of alienation is not like she is forcibly suppressing her emotions and enduring sadness, so as to disguise it.

But she has been frowning her beautiful slender eyebrows shallowly, as if she is thinking about something, worrying about something...... This is in line with some of the girl's imagination.

"Me? Of course I don't have a problem anymore, why do you say that? Hitomi raised an eyebrow, she still didn't understand what the hell these people were talking about.

It feels as if they all know the fact that they are being targeted by a certain being, but if you listen carefully, you will find it difficult to understand what they are saying.

It doesn't seem to be the same thing as I imagined.

Maybe it's really because they misunderstood, after all, they should all be just ordinary people, how could they even know about this kind of thing...... Hitomi pondered this.

"Well, so in that case...... Hitomi, you can rest first, and I'll come to see you tomorrow morning. ”

Chihaya stared at Hitomi's face for a long time, but she really couldn't see anything, so she could only nod and stand up.

Although it is true that I want to get closer to each other more, it is true that the fire of gossip is burning, and I want to know more about the other party's situation, but no matter what, I only met today.

If you can't be too eager, lest you turn the other party into disgust in the end, then it really outweighs the loss.

Anyway, there is still a lot of time in the future, and the girl believes that she will become very good friends with each other, and she is full of confidence in this.

"......" watched the girl's figure walk outside, then closed the door, and Hitomi withdrew her gaze.

She closed her eyes slightly, expanded her spiritual power to sense the outside, and then shook her head gently, afraid that tonight would be quite unpeaceful.

But...... By and large, it wasn't too bad, there was no blood, no killing, just panic and uneasiness that certainly couldn't be avoided.

There is no danger, but people who are dragged down by this situation are sure to fall into panic, anger, turmoil, embarrassment, confusion, and distress...... After all, it is difficult to calm down in the dark.

She could clearly feel a shivering aura that spread out with the night.

You can't be wrong, it's a great will to find a goal...... And that goal is herself.

There is no way to confront it head-on, she has no way to even leave the city, as long as she goes out, she will definitely be discovered, after all, light and shadow are always interdependent, and darkness is everywhere.

There is absolutely no way to break through and go undetected. For example, now, all directions in all directions have been "blocked" by the pupil's senses.

Perhaps they didn't want to make too much of a fuss, so they adopted relatively soft and gentle measures, and those "things" were not exaggerated to the point that they were everywhere and pervasive like locusts transiting.

But judging from the current situation, she can't hide for too long, and those "things" can really search every inch of the entire city in two or three nights at most.

By that time, it would be completely clear what was left to be weird.

Hitomi's heart couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency, she knew that she didn't have much time left, but there was no way to deal with such a situation...... No, there seems to be a way around it.

Although it is not completely certain, it is impossible for the other party to resurrect himself for no reason, and there must be some plan.

That's probably something she can take advantage of.

……

……

Among the nameless shrines near the outskirts of the city.

"Still no response, this enchantment is too proficient...... Aha, but I'm not in a hurry, take your time. ”

Mo Chen had a hearty smile on his face, holding his teacup and sitting on the floor in front of the shrine, if Erica hadn't left, he would definitely wonder if he had been infected by some stupid person in the previous contact.

He looked down at the tea in his cup, and the brown water reflected the bright moon in the sky, which was a magical sight, because no matter where he looked at the sky, there were only dark clouds.

The stars and the moon have long since disappeared without a trace.

However, Mo Chen stared at the tea leaves in the teacup, but he didn't pay much attention to this phenomenon, for him, it was just a convenient carrier to receive feedback from the technique.

The flowers in the mirror, the moon in the water, everything in the outside world is reflected in his heart lake.

It's not that he doesn't want to do it as soon as possible, but this is the limit at the moment, and the magic phenomenon that can affect an entire huge city is enough to scare people to death, and I'm afraid that few people dare to believe it easily.

But this is indeed the limit, after all, it is only the influence of spell ability...... That's right, what he is currently using is pure magic ability, and he is not using the unreasonable god-level law power of "power".

Divine power can't be hidden, but Mo Chen can use his special characteristics that are different from those ancient creatures or personified huge energies to put on a layer of almost perfect disguise.

However, once this kind of thing is revealed, no matter how well it is disguised in the future, it will definitely have no effect, and he doesn't plan to expose himself so soon.

Besides, some guys are really very troublesome, once they find out that Mo Chen is such an "interesting" existence, they will definitely not be much better than the previous Salbatre Tony, or it should be said that it is even worse.

Mo Chen only wants to follow his own ideas and execute his own plan at the moment, and he doesn't want to be disturbed...... If it was in the future, he wouldn't mind playing a fishing operation, but not now.

"Tomorrow will certainly be a day of peace as well......"

Raising his head and glancing at the hazy night sky in the sky, he seemed to have seen some kind of beautiful scenery and good weather, and said in such a low voice.

……

……

Whether tomorrow will be a peaceful day or not, no one can be sure.

But tonight is destined to be an unquiet night.

Special operations vehicles, speeding down the roads, according to the instructions and orders of their superiors, drove to a nearby location.

However, what is powerless is that even if they are so exhausted, it is difficult for them to get the expected results, and often many times they go one step late, leaving only the victims in the dark......

Their lives were not in danger, and their bodies and belongings were not harmed in any way, but they were basically either unconscious, or they were overly frightened and incoherent, and temporarily lost the ability to speak.

There was nothing left at the scene, and those "things" had no corresponding material entities at all, and no matter how they sealed the scene and surveyed the evidence, they couldn't find what they wanted.

What could there be? Hair or blood? Teeth or something else?

This is not a game, ghosts can still drop materials to explode boxes, and even if they can burst out, they didn't knock out ghosts!

- It's all about the "things" that complete their goals and then disappear on their own.

There is no way, they can only deal with the scene in a hurry, and then rush to another scene without stopping, but temporary transfer, hasty action, extreme shortage of manpower and other reasons determine that they are often just exhausted and return in vain.

After all, for the sake of secrecy, only the personnel who were in charge of this area before can be allowed to deal with the relevant incidents, and not the ordinary police action.

If the city is full of police cars running around, even if the people don't know anything, they will make up their minds with random thoughts, causing a certain amount of panic and riots.

The second reason is that the number of personnel in this area itself is relatively scarce, and even the secret department has not yet completed the construction, and most of them are still 80 kilometers away at this time.

Far water can't save a near fire, and that side is just as important.

So throughout the night, in addition to a bunch of cases with only confessions from the parties, and a few supernatural videos that happened to be captured by surveillance cameras or camera tools such as mobile phones.

In other respects, there is really nothing to gain.

However, they felt that this was already quite a huge progress, enough to make the authorities ecstatic.

And just like that, the sun rose again, the restless night came to an end, and it seemed that everything had subsided.
