The disappearance of Kagura Kai was completely unexpected, and it was impossible to imagine what happened in the meantime.

"Damn! If I could have come earlier......"

Huang Quan seemed to be in a deep state of self-reproach.

"Missing...... Is something wrong with Kagura? Attacked by an enemy? ”

Miyuki said what might have come to mind.

"That's the strangest part, there are no traces of the battle before and after Kagura's disappearance in the records."

Shiki has carefully looked at the search history, so it is clear.

"Could it be that you left on your own, running away from home or something?"

"There's a possibility."

Shiki agrees with Miyuki.

"If Tsuchinomiya Kagura is attacked, fighting, or even dying, it is impossible not to leave a trace, especially after death, Shiraei will be released, and nothing has been found in the observation of the countermeasure room, so the possibility of Tsuchimiya Kagura dying is very small, and it is more likely that she left on her own, and it is not certain whether she hid or someone caught her afterwards."

"Huangquan, don't worry about it yet."

It's impossible to expect Shiki to comfort Huangquan, so Miyuki speaks.

"Maybe she's just hiding to relax, or she's recuperating in seclusion or something."

"Hmm."

Huang Quan nodded reluctantly.

"Maybe that's it, after all, Kagura is a crybaby."

That's all there was to find in the strategy room, so Shiki left with the others.

Because of this accident, their itinerary changed somewhat, and in order to further investigate Kagura's disappearance, they were led to Kagura's house under the leadership of Huangquan.

Coming to the Japanese-style complex that covers a large area, the residence of the Tsuchinomiya family is still no different from the past.

It's not the first time Shiki has been here, he broke into it with an extremely arrogant attitude, but he just entered the gate and left, so this is the first time he has seen the situation inside.

Carefully hiding their figures, they were guided by Huang Quan towards the Tsuchinomiya family's mansion.

In the past, Kagura had been taken care of by living in Huangquan's house, but Huangquan had also been to the Tsuchinomiya house many times, and knew most of the arrangements for each room, so they had to search for what had changed.

There was no one inside the Tsuchinomiya family, and it seems that Kagura was locked down by the countermeasure room after her disappearance, which made it easier for Shiki to move.

"I'll search the rooms, and you can do whatever you want."

As he walked down the wooden corridor, Shiki said to everyone.

"Can you find any clues with your ability to read memories?"

Miyuki remembers that Shiki has this ability.

Ordinary clues must have been searched by the countermeasure room, and if they are not mentioned in the records, then there is no hope.

"No, it's been too long."

As soon as he came here, the four seasons used this ability, but they didn't gain anything, and after such a long time, they still wanted to know what happened in the past, unless he could directly read the records of the world, but that basically had to be close to the strength of the inner circle to do it.

"What then? Isn't that pointless to come here? ”

"The ability to use it is not good, but it does not mean that there is no way. Kagura has lived here for more than a year, and it is impossible to leave nothing in the meantime, maybe not a direct clue, but maybe it is a clue to her movements, which is not in the record. ”

"Detective Four Seasons?"

“？”

"Don't care."

Miyuki waved her hand, and in order not to disturb the four seasons, she turned her head to look for Hatsuzakura, but after a while, Hatsuzakura was gone.

Hatsuzakura didn't go far, stopping in the hallway near the courtyard.

"Here......"

A sigh-like voice came from the mouth of the Yellow Spring.

"Yellow Springs?"

"This is where I spoke to Kagura for the first time, and I didn't expect it to have changed in so long."

As if confirming her words, the water in the courtyard rattled with a bell, making time seem to go back to years ago.

"At that time, Kagura was as small as Kohatsu Sakura."

"Hatsuzakura, the same?"

Hatsuzakura patted her head.

"Uh-huh. But at that time, Kagura wasn't as cute as Kohatsu Sakura, and she was always sad, so it took a lot of effort to make her laugh. ”

Although it was a complaint, Huang Quan's tone was full of pampering.

"Huang Quan, happy?"

"Ahh Very happy. Seeing Kagura at that time was like another self, I couldn't let go of her, so I forced her to live in my house to take care of her. ”

Huang Quan's gaze was as if he had seen a bygone time.

"But I hurt her more than once, obviously the most important sister. What can I do for her when I come back? Now I don't even know where she is. ”

"No problem!"

Hatsu Sakura suddenly leaned her face closer to the mirror, almost touching Huang Quan's face on the other side.

"Huangquan likes Kagura?"

"Hmm."

Huang Quan could only nod his head when he was seriously watched by Hatsu Sakura.

"Well, no problem!"

Unreasonable words came out of Hatsu Sakura's mouth, but there seemed to be a convincing power in them.

"Thank you."

Huang Quan knew that now was not the time for her to be lost, and she finally got the opportunity to come back, she wanted to find Kagura and change the future she saw.

By the time Hatsuzakura and Huang Quan were talking, Shiki had already searched the entire house. Since the countermeasure room was cordoned off after the investigation, the layout of each room has not changed, so the four seasons can basically restore the situation when Kagura lived.

Shiki focused on investigating Kagura's room, which was a variety of exorcist books and materials in addition to everyday items. Naturally, there are no direct clues in it, and if there is a countermeasure room, it will definitely be found.

Most of Kagura's room is filled with books, so it's easy to check, but this does reveal something unusual. There were so few things in this room, only beds, books, materials, and nothing else, such as decorations, toys, puppets, etc.

Looking at such a room, it is easy to think of a person who has no hobbies and only a job, and it does not look like a room of a girl of middle school age at all. A person's room can sometimes reflect a person's personality and psychology, and the owner of this room undoubtedly gives people a sense of loneliness.

After the investigation is over, Shiki rejoins with the others, and after listening to Shiki's account and knowing that there is no clue where Kagura is, Huangquan falls back into sleep.

"What are we going to do now?"

After leaving the Tsuchinomiya house, Miyuki asked.

"Originally, I planned to carry out the plan to resurrect Huangquan as soon as possible, but now the situation has changed, and we will not act for the time being."

Based on the circumstances of Kagura's disappearance, Shiki reworked his plans.

"We have to settle down and wait and see what happens. So let's find a place to stay first. ”

After speaking, the four seasons took a step.
