Chapter 1 Plans and Changes
Subconsciously turning the beam of the flashlight in his hand, the black-haired girl standing outside the door carefully looked at the inside of the worship hall and found that there was really no half of the figure.
Or maybe it's really her own dazzle, but the girl is relieved by this.
After all, I'm dazzled, and it's better than a real thief at the shrine, right? You must know that my mother's sleep has not been very good, so I have fallen asleep early after dinner, and my grandfather is already old, and my younger brother Caotai is still a little child......
There is not even a man at home to support the scene, and as the eldest daughter, she will run out to check on herself as soon as she notices some movements.
- because she is the only one who is fit to do such a thing.
Although the girl was on the way here, she adjusted her mobile phone to the alarm interface to ensure that if she found that the situation was wrong, she could call the police as soon as possible...... Truth be told, however, this does not guarantee safety.
Because it takes time for the police to arrive, and it doesn't mean that as soon as you press the police phone, they will be able to appear by their side in the next second.
…… That's a policeman, not a journalist.
Since there was no problem, the girl checked in detail in the vicinity again, and confirmed that there was indeed no place to hide people, so she relaxed the tense heartstrings. She exhaled heavily, then closed the door of the worship hall again.
"Sure enough, it seems to have caught up with ......"
She looked back at the black-haired girl until she withdrew with a sigh of relief and closed the door again, and the hall fell into complete darkness, but Mo Chen nodded lightly.
Because he confirmed the basic information he wanted to know—
This black-haired girl with a delicate appearance, a strong heart, and a good appearance is indeed Sunset Kagome herself. She's still in this world, and she doesn't have any special aura on her body, in short, she hasn't crossed yet?
After all, if she had already crossed over, then the jade of the four souls in her body would definitely not be able to be saved, and the divine power inherited from her previous life would inevitably appear...... Even if she can't grasp that potential, it won't change that fact.
It definitely won't be like this, no matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary person, without any special powers.
"But when it comes to the Jade of the Four Souls......"
Mo Chen raised his eyebrows, thinking of this stubble, is this considered an early cut-off? The Jade of the Four Souls had been in Sunset Kagome's body, or it couldn't be detected by the technological equipment, but he was sure to take it out.
It was only after a moment of careful thought that he gave up on such an idea.
He could have ideas about the Divine Source, as it would only grant immortality to the user, but would not add even a trace of special power. Just look at the prophet James, who lived for more than a thousand years and still maintained the power of ordinary people.
- Except for the characteristic of killing but not dying, there is not the slightest extraordinary supernatural power.
But the jade of the four souls is different, that thing can really give people unimaginable huge power, don't mention anything else, just say this aspect, it's enough for Mo Chen to retreat and cherish life.
Some opportunities are not opportunities in themselves, but traps.
If he really got his hands on the Jade of the Four Souls, in his current state, he would really immediately go to the end of self-destruction.
Unless he can find a way to first transform the extremely large spiritual power in his body. It was only then that he would be qualified to consider the question of gaining more power on that basis.
In the past three months, it has been three months since I left the island, and the discussion on the Internet has gone from being so hot that it has become of little interest and has been replaced by new hot news.
However, Mo Chen's spiritual power transformation had only completed less than one-tenth of the progress......
"Well, at least I've discovered a new feature of the Numbers of God......" he sighed, and then comforted himself.
And this can be said to confirm that when each world is discovered, it is in the pattern of a period of time just before the beginning or start of the plot, right?
But in an instant, he suddenly frowned as if he had thought of some detail that he had subconsciously ignored. Anyway, I found out before...... A few combinations that are also "unresponsive"?
Does this mean that—
Big trouble for yourself?
……
……
Snow came with the cold winter.
After all, the long river of time has been surging relentlessly forward, and it is not subject to anyone's will, what should come will always come.
The snow was falling one after another, and the bitter wind swept the harsh white in the face. The nearby streets are relatively secluded and deserted, and now there are even fewer pedestrians, and you don't see more than three digits at the end of the day.
The weather is unusually cold, and the north wind is like a knife, and when it blows head-on, it makes people feel like they are being cut. Therefore, people covered themselves tightly in their coats, shrunk and hurried on the road, and their breathing turned into puffs of white smoke.
Similarly, the only izakaya in the neighborhood welcomed guests early.
Misako Tojo's body tilted, her left hand propped up on the counter, and her right hand wiped the table, although it seemed hard, but it seemed to be somewhat absent-minded, after all, she had been wiping the same area for several minutes.
However, the girl herself obviously does not have that kind of consciousness, but while maintaining such a state, every ten seconds or so, with the help of actions such as raising her eyes and turning her head, she will intentionally or unintentionally sweep her eyes in the direction of the door.
In this kind of weather, no one should want to sit near the door, and a young man appeared again, he belonged to a particularly conspicuous kind in terms of appearance and temperament, and he would unconsciously attract the attention of others.
And even though he was wearing a winter coat, it was too thin compared to other people who wrapped themselves tightly. But he always sat near the door, and he seemed to be really unaware, as if the winter coat was only worn for disguise.
It's like a cold monarch - for others, whether it's the cold north wind or the biting cold, they can only bow down in front of him.
Sure enough, he's here again, and I'm going to ask for his name.
Misako Tojo thought so.
School is on vacation today, so she doesn't have to go to school, and she stays in the izakaya to help as always. But the reason why I noticed the young man was from earlier.
The izakaya itself is not a bar, and unlike ordinary taverns that only serve alcohol as the center, they also serve more quality meals, but unlike snack bars.
Generally speaking, it is late at night, after all, few people go to an izakaya during the day...... But there will always be exceptions, for example, this one, because of the location, its own business can only be said to be passable, and naturally it will not only do business at night.
And a long time ago, when the weather had just cooled, there was a new face that I had never seen before, and I came to sit early every day and didn't leave until late at night.
Every day, every day, it's been going on for almost two months now.
Rain or shine, thunder doesn't move, it's like clocking in to work. And as long as this situation lasts for a long time, it will naturally be noticed.
Misako Tojo only listened to her parents casually at first, and she didn't pay much attention to it, until she was called to help one day, and suddenly felt that the expressiveness of language was still too pale.
That feeling of detachment seemed very dusty or unreal, so that she didn't dare to step forward at all.
Since then, she's offered to help out at the izakaya every weekend, and this is the first time she's thought she'd gone up and asked for the other person's name later. However, it's a pity that whenever she finds a chance to walk over, she is always defeated by the other party's indifference to everything around her.
It was an indescribable feeling, and after plucking up the courage and dying in vain, she realized that it was definitely not a simple matter of appearance.
Or is it really related to "temperament", "aura", "charm" and other mysterious sayings, after all, she has seen people who are so handsome that they are too beautiful or even so beautiful that girls are ashamed to die, but she has never tried the current situation.
To be honest, this made the girl frustrated and very curious, full of ideas and desires to explore.
Mo Chen himself was still unaware of this, not to mention the subconscious idea that all the strange eyes around him were blamed on his own psychological effects, and he really didn't have time to think about other issues now.
After discovering the Sunset Shrine, he directly found a place nearby to rent a house to live in, and it has been nearly two months now.
A lot of things happened during this time, such as the fact that Rose had a new ship, which was also invested by Sanmantha's family, and was also named the Stoic. Miss Crawford, on the other hand, found clues about Kitt City while revisiting her father's manuscripts.
She also came from England to meet with Mo Chen, and excitedly and elaborated on her thoughts and plans - she was going to wait until next year to explore the Siberian wilderness, and wanted to ask his opinion.
Of course, Mo Chen had no objections, and even hoped that the sooner the better, after all, it was about the Divine Source, which was the secret of immortality.
It's just that the hell is a cold and snowy place, and the average population density is said to be only three people per square kilometer, and there are more wolves and bears than people. The primitive wilderness has not yet been developed, and Kit City, as a lost city, is impossible for anyone to search blindly in such a vast area.
Therefore, it is only up to Miss Crawford to be fully prepared before acting, and her instincts are excellent anyway, and it is absolutely impossible to ignore the real clues.
And Mo Chen has been focusing on transforming that huge spiritual power, by the way to fight against Himiko's residual obsession influence, and by the way, to observe the situation of Sunset Kagome.
He had visited the well several times, but there was no way to use it to travel back to the Warring States period five hundred years ago, or because of the lack of the Jade of the Four Souls.
Sunset Kagome has also been repeating the calm and monotonous daily life, without triggering the plot of being pulled into the well by a youkai and starting the journey to find jade in the Warring States period five hundred years ago.
Maybe the time was not yet that time, Mo Chen remembered that it seemed to be in the summer, as if it was the day before her fifteenth birthday?
Anyway, Mo Chen felt that he really needed to really master as much power as possible, and it was naturally best to have such a buffer time, he had been working on transforming spiritual power, learning occult knowledge, and adjusting and optimizing the structure of his spells.
There is also a fixed time to return to the world of shame to carve runes and supervise the progress of Jindosh, these arrangements make his schedule full and quite fulfilling.
Of course, the most important thing is that he has been paying close attention to all kinds of strange news, trying to find clues to the other four "jackpots" that may have been drawn by himself with a Rubik's Cube.
It's just that there hasn't been any progress.
Either his guess is wrong, or the "jackpot" that has been integrated into the real world is also hidden outside of normal human society and belongs to the dark side of the world.
- If you don't get directly involved in it, you can't find out about it.
