Chapter 262: The Purpose of Tamamo Front

When Chiya and Twilight Detective arrived at Katsushika Shibamata with the people from the countermeasure room, Nanami Hashimoto and the others were surrounding under a cherry blossom tree at the Emperor Shakti Shrine, looking at a deep pit remaining under the tree, and judging from the disbelieving expression of Tiger Chiyo on the side, this should be the place where she originally buried the two swords.

"Nanamin, what the hell is going on? Are you okay, how could two good swords be stolen? Getting off the police car, Qianye went straight to the scene with the Twilight Police, looked at Nanami Hashimoto and the others who were surrounding the deep pit, and immediately asked her with concern. It's just that when Qianye stood next to the pit, the remaining mana fluctuations around the pit already let him know who stole the two swords that Tiger Chiyo had buried here.

This residual mana fluctuation, although thousands of years have passed, Qianye still recognizes at a glance this breath that belongs to the nine-tailed fox Yuzao, although it has not reached the level of the big monster, but it is very obvious that this is the handiwork of Yuzao. But this made Qianye frown a little, he didn't understand why the nine-tailed fox clone who had been hiding his identity suddenly revealed his identity, or was it also part of her conspiracy?

While Qianye was thinking about the purpose of the nine-tailed fox, Nanami Hashimoto hurriedly explained the situation here to him: "Qianya, here's the thing, when I came here with Tiger Chiyo, there was no problem here, and Tiger Chiyo also checked that the sword was indeed buried here. But just as we were about to take a break in the house, we suddenly heard an explosion from here, and by the time we arrived, the sword in the cave was gone. ”

Nanami Hashimoto's explanation made Chiya frown, such a style of hitting the middle and far away is really too different from the style he is familiar with in front of Tamamo, if it is really Tamamo front, she should choose to hide her identity, and quietly take advantage of everyone's negligence to steal these two swords without attracting anyone's attention.

But today, taking these two swords directly in an almost overt way is really a bit unexpected by Qianya, which is really contrary to the style of Tamamo that Qianya knows. Could it be that Tamamo has changed his style of behavior in the past thousand years after splitting his soul? But ten years ago, when Tamamo controlled Tiger Chiyo to steal two swords enshrined in the headquarters of the Huangquan Sect, and this time he stole the statue of Susanoo God who was locked in the evidence room from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, but he didn't show so much manipulation and blatantness, Hashimoto Nana didn't say that Tamamo had split eight clones at the beginning, and two completely different styles of acting, were they done by two different nine-tailed fox clones?

Qianye couldn't help but rub his forehead, this incident also made him fall into trouble. However, while Qianye was troubled, the Twilight Policeman who followed from the side had not yet figured out what was going on here, so he asked, "Can anyone explain what is going on here?" Mr. Chiba, why did you say that we may have gone in the wrong direction after hearing about the accident here, and that the theft of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's evidence room was not the work of the remnants of the Huangquan Sect? ”

Faced with the question of the twilight vigilance, Qianye was just about to explain, but the tiger Chiyo on the side preempted him and said: "Let me explain this matter, after all, I am the party." ”

"Here's the thing, ten years ago, I was controlled by the doppelganger of the nine-tailed fox Tamamo, and infiltrated the headquarters of the Yellow Springs Sect at that time and stole the ten-armed sword and the Tiancong Cloud Sword on the statue of the male god Susanoo that they worshipped and worshipped." Tora Chiyo walked up to the Twilight Guard and explained to him what had happened ten years ago and what was going on now, "But after I stole the sword, I was hunted down by the Huangquan Sect. In order to avoid danger, I had to hide from overseas with my husband, and buried the two swords here to avoid being found by the Huangquan Sect, but the current situation, Mr. Officer, you can also see, the two swords that were originally buried here have been stolen. ”

"So there's a sword buried here on the stolen statue of the god Susanoo?" After listening to Tiger Chiyo's words, Twilight Guard also knew the seriousness of the matter, but he still asked Qianye with some puzzlement: "Mr. Chiba, so you suspect that it was the same person who stole the statue of Susanoo and snatched the two swords, both of them are the nine-tailed fox Tamamo?" It's just that there is no similarity in the modus operandi between the two, Mr. Chiba, how do you judge that this is all done by the nine-tailed fox Tamamo before? ”

Although he was surprised by the name of the nine-tailed fox Tamamo, the focus of the Twilight Police was still on how the two things were connected in Qianya, and in his heart, he still believed that the theft of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department was the work of the remnants of the Huangquan Sect.

Qianye looked at the Twilight Police and nodded approvingly at his serious attitude before explaining to him, "The modus operandi of the theft of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is the same as the method used by Tamamo to manipulate Tiger Chiyo to steal the two swords from the Huangquan Sect headquarters ten years ago. The modus operandi of the two is so similar, and if you can do this, except for the nine-tailed fox Yuzao, I don't think about it as a second person. ”

"If Mr. Chiba says this, it is true that I can preliminarily believe that these two cases were committed by the same person, but I don't know what happened ten years ago, and I can't make a judgment based on your words alone." Twilight nodded in agreement with Chiya's statement, but he didn't identify the prisoner as Tamamo.

"As for here, this pit was forcibly blown open by someone with witchcraft, so the soil around this pit is still stained with the breath of the perpetrator, and I will never admit this breath, it is the breath of the jade algae." Chiya didn't feel strange about Twilight's caution, as an old detective, Twilight's suspicion of everything and not trusting anyone was the most correct thing to do, so Chiya just continued to explain to him.

"If Mr. Chiba is sure, then it can be determined that the perpetrator of the theft of the two swords here is Tamamae." When the police heard the affirmation of Qianye's words, they had no choice but to agree with his judgment, but he still had doubts: "But in this case, it still doesn't make sense why the modus operandi of the two cases are completely different, and the motives of the perpetrators, why did she steal these two swords, or did she rob them in such a blatant way?" ”

At this time, Ah Yin on the side suddenly said with some hesitation: "I may know a little clue about this." ”

Hu Chiyo looked at Ah Yin's hesitation, and suddenly said dissatisfied: "If you know, say it quickly, where is hesitating like a man!" ”

Ah Yin, who was yelled at by his mother, seemed to be taken aback, and didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly explained to Qianye, who was watching Twilight and looking at him: "I heard my mother mention before, when she stole those two swords ten years ago, the Huangquan Sect wanted to use that idol to summon Susanoo to come, but after her mother stole those two swords, she ruined the ceremony, so the person who stole the sword and the idol together this time, will she also want to repeat this process?" ”

"If that's what the other party's purpose is, then I'm afraid things are a little tricky and bad." Hearing Ah Yin say this, Qianye's face became grim, and he, who had been worried before, was almost certain at this time that Tamamo's purpose was to summon Susanoo to come with the help of the stolen god statue and two swords. If this is the case, I am afraid that Tokyo will usher in a catastrophe like a thousand years ago, but this time, Chiya needs to deal with it alone, and there is no one who has been with Abe Harumi and Minamoto Boya for a thousand years.

Without any further hesitation, Chiya immediately said to the Twilight Officer, "Officer Twilight, this matter is related to the safety of the whole of Tokyo and even Japan, and I ask you to go all out to find out where the prisoner is!" I know it's a bit of a tough thing, but if we can't stop the people who stole the idols and swords from summoning Susanoo with the help of the idols, the whole of Tokyo will be plunged into a catastrophe. A thousand years ago, someone in Heiankyo did something similar and summoned Susanoo to descend, and if it wasn't for the great onmyoji Abe Harumi to stop it, the entire Heian Kyoto would be destroyed, so I hope you can do your best to find out where the prisoner or the statue is! ”

After listening to Chiya's words, the Twilight Police already knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately nodded in agreement: "Mr. Chiba, please rest assured, I will immediately ask the people in the countermeasures room and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to devote all their police forces to deal with this matter!" If necessary, the countermeasures room has the right to mobilize warships and self-defense forces, so please rest assured that Mr. Chiba, we will definitely get the criminals and idols back! ”

Seeing that the matter had become serious, the look on Nanami Hashimoto's face became a little remorseful, and she walked up to Qianye and apologized to him in a whisper: "Qianye, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, if I could have paid attention to whether I was being followed or sent someone to stay here, I wouldn't have caused such a big trouble." ”

"It's none of your business, you don't have to blame yourself so much." Although she was still worried in her heart, Qianye still comforted her wife: "With the cunning in front of Tamamo, even if Nana Min you send someone to guard here, I'm afraid it will only make her spend a lot of time." The top priority is not to hold accountable, nor to feel guilty, Nanamin, instead of blaming yourself here, it is better to inform Mai and let the youkai of the Nine-Tails group work with Jiujing and them to find out Tamamo as soon as possible. ”

Qianye's comfort made Nanami Hashimoto feel a little better, although she still felt remorseful, Nanami Hashimoto still listened to Qianya's words and informed Mai Shiraishi of the incident. Hearing that the matter involved Tamamo, Mai Shiraishi had mixed feelings for Tamamo and was a nine-tailed fox of this generation, but she quickly informed the Nine-Tails Group of the matter and asked them to go all out to find out where the statues of Tamamo and Susanoo were located.

Qianye looked at the deep pit in front of him, which still exuded the breath of the former Yuzao, squatted down, twisted a handful of dirt with his hand, and examined it carefully in his hand, but the tightly knit brow showed the worry in his heart. Nana Hashimoto didn't look at Qianya's appearance and couldn't bear him to worry so much, so he squatted beside him and persuaded him: "Qianya, don't think about it, didn't Amber once say that Tamamo tore his soul apart and split into eight clones?" Maybe the one who stole the idol from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department wasn't the same as the one who stole the sword just now? Different doppelgangers may be affected by the emotions of Tamamo at the beginning, and their personalities and acting styles are also completely different? ”

"That's not what I'm worried about." Chiya slapped his palms and slapped the dust off his hands before standing up and explaining to Nanami Hashimoto: "Tamamo ago tore her soul apart, causing each of her eight clones to inherit an extreme emotion, and it is indeed appropriate for her personality and style to change. I was just worried about the purpose of what Tamamo was doing before that. ”

"The purpose? Could it be that Tamamo's purpose is other than summoning Susanoo to come? "Nana Hashimoto was a little puzzled, and she didn't understand what other purpose Tamamo could have besides summoning Susanoo to come.

"It's because I can't think of it that I'm so worried." Qianye shook his head, the smile on his face was a little bitter: "If I could guess the purpose of Tamamo, then I wouldn't be so worried." It's because I can't guess what she's trying to do that I can't control, and I haven't felt like that in a long time. ”

Seeing that Qianye was so worried, Nanami Hashimoto also felt a little distressed, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It would be nice if Amber was still there, she is a doppelganger of Tamamo Front, maybe she can know what Tamamo is doing this for." ”

"If you want to know, why don't you ask the concubine yourself?" At this moment, a voice that made Nana Hashimoto feel very familiar came, which made her turn around in surprise, looked at the figure walking towards her, and quickly greeted her: "Amber!" What are you doing here? I miss you so much, where have you been all these years since I left? ”

However, when Nanami Hashimoto was about to hold the hand of the comer, both Jiujin and Qiu Yumaru stopped in front of her. Nana Hashimoto asked with some puzzlement: "Jiujing, Autumn Rain Pill?" What are you two doing here, she's Amber, don't you know her? ”

"My lord, don't forget, although Amber is your subordinate, she is also the doppelganger of the nine-tailed fox Yuzao, who knows if she has anything to do with this incident?" Jiujing stood in front of Nanami Hashimoto, looking at Amber vigilantly, although he was very familiar with her, but in front of the nine-tailed fox Yuzao, any caution was not too much.

"I'm here to tell you that the other clones in front of Tamamo stole Susanoo's idol and snatched the sword stolen by Tiger Chiyo, indeed to summon Susanoo's arrival. In addition, they have another purpose, which is to reunite our eight clones and resurrect the nine-tailed fox Tamamo. Amber still had a faint smile on her face, and she didn't mind the precautions of Jiujing and Akiyumaru who stopped in front of her, and explained the plans of the other Tamamo former clones to Nanami Hashimoto.
