Chapter 43: The Fox
In the tea room, Nanami Hashimoto is staring at Chiya with scrutinizing eyes, and Chiya seems to be drinking tea unnoticed.
At this moment, the members of Nogizaka 46 and the staff in charge of filming have all left after completing the shooting. And Nanami Hashimoto found an excuse to stay, planning to talk to Chiya well.
"Qianye, don't you have anything to say to me?" Nana Hashimoto looked at Chiya with some displeasure, dissatisfied with his attitude.
Qianye blew the teacup in her hand, drank the tea in the cup, put down the teacup and looked at the somewhat angry Nanami Hashimoto, smiled and asked her, "Nanamin, what do you want me to say?" Justifying my relationship with Nanasei? Or do you use some sweet words to make you happy? Or do you like both of you? I don't think that's what Nanamin wants to hear, right? ”
Hearing Qianye's words, Nanami Hashimoto suddenly collapsed, pursed his mouth and said, "So you don't even want to coax me?" ”
"Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid. Why should I defend something that doesn't need to be explained. Qianye looked into Nanami Hashimoto's eyes and said seriously: "If Nanamin you believe me, then you will believe me even if I don't explain." If Nanami you don't believe me, no matter how much you explain, you still won't believe me. In that case, why should I waste my tongue and tongue? ”
Nana Hashimoto grabbed the cushion next to her and threw it at Chiya, who raised her hand and waved, and the cushion flew back to her original position. Looking at Qianye's calm appearance, Nana Hashimoto's face turned cold, and he turned his head away angrily and stopped looking at Qianye.
Looking at Nanami Hashimoto, who was really angry, Chiya smiled bitterly, moved to Nanami Hashimoto and hugged her shoulder, but she slapped her aside. Chiya hugged Nanami Hashimoto, who was still struggling, and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry, Nanamin." It's not that I don't want to coax you, it's that I really don't know what to say to make you happy. I don't want to deceive you, I just want you to trust me. After speaking, he vigorously hugged Nanami Hashimoto in his arms.
Although Nanami Hashimoto was still angry with Qianye, when he heard him say this, he still muttered in a low voice: "Even if that's the case, I can say something nice." ”
"In my opinion, Nanamin, you're not the kind of girl who can be deceived by sweet words." Chiya hugged Nanami Hashimoto and sniffed the fragrance in her hair.
The breath of Qianye's words brushed in Nanami Hashimoto's ears, making Nanami Hashimoto feel a little itchy in his ears at the same time, he also felt a trace of sweetness in his heart, Nanami Hashimoto leaned on Qianye's shoulder and said softly: "Even so, I want to listen to you occasionally say something sweet." ”
Just when Qianya stroked Nana Hashimoto's hair and was about to say something, Nana Hashimoto's mobile phone rang on the low table.
Nana Hashimoto didn't get up from Chiya's arms, took the phone and glanced at it and found that it was Mai Shiraishi's number, so she connected the phone: "Moxi Moxi, Mai like?" Can I help you? ”
It wasn't Mai Shiraishi's voice on the phone, but a male voice. It seems that after saying something with Nanami Hashimoto, Nanami Hashimoto's expression changed greatly: "What? Mai was attacked? In which hospital? Okay, I got it, I'll get right over. ”
Nana Hashimoto didn't hang up the phone, and said to Qianya with a worried face: "Mai was attacked on the way home, and now she is sent to the hospital, I will rush over immediately." With that, he stood up and planned to go out.
At this time, Ruodie's voice came from outside the door: "Master, Officer Sato of the Metropolitan Police Department is waiting outside the door." There is another attack in Tonai, and Officer Twilight is seriously injured in order to protect the girl who was attacked, and Officer Sato hopes that the owner will go to help with the investigation. ”
Senya stood up and glanced at Nana Hashimoto, and the two walked out of the tea room together.
Qianye looked at Ruodie standing at the door of the tea room with a grim face, and asked in a cold voice, "Did Officer Sato mention who was attacked?" ”
"It's Miss Shiraishi, and Officer Twilight was also injured to protect Miss Shiraishi." Ruodie's words made Qianya's face even colder, and at the same time, it also made Nanami Hashimoto even more worried.
Nana Hashimoto, who suddenly thought of something, looked at Qianye suddenly, and asked in a trembling voice, "Qianye, why did the police come to you when Mai was attacked?" Are you hiding something from me? ”
Chiya looked at Nanami Hashimoto, who had a somewhat frightened expression, and explained to her, "When you went to collect sacrifices yesterday, the police from the Metropolitan Police Department came to look for me. In Tokyo, a demon fox is attacking innocent girls and hunting for raw livers. The police wanted me to assist them in capturing the demon fox, but because of today's prayer ceremony, I just lent a knife that could repel the demon fox, and I didn't expect it to be attacked like Mai. ”
Hearing Qianye say this, Nana Hashimoto became even more worried, and looked at Qianye with a hopeful look in his eyes and asked, "Then Qianye, can you ambush this demon fox?" ”
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Qianye's mouth: "I'll peel it off and make you a fox fur." After speaking, he turned to Ruodie and said, "Let Officer Sato stay for a while, I'll be there later." ”
After Ruodie bowed and left, Qianye walked towards the wall next to the tea room, and Nana Hashimoto looked at him puzzled: "Qianye, what are you going to do?" ”
Chiya restrained the coldness on her face, and while reaching out to lift the barrier on the wall, she said to Nanami Hashimoto, "I want to take a skinning knife so that I can skin that daring demon fox." ”
Nana Hashimoto looked at the movements of the thousand nights in confusion, only to see that with the movements of the thousand nights, the original wall turned into a downward staircase.
"There's something down here?" Nanami Hashimoto's eyes showed surprise.
Qianye nodded and said to Nanami Hashimoto, "Wait for me here." With that, he walked down.
————————————————————
Officer Sato waited nervously, and although Wakadie told him that Senya would arrive later, every minute of waiting was torment for him.
Originally, after getting the "Oni Cut" lent by Senya, the Twilight Police Department had already fought off a demon last night and saved an innocent girl. But what happened tonight puzzled Officer Sato.
Judging from last night's attack, the demon fox didn't want to face the "ghost cut" in the hands of the Twilight Police Department, and it was almost a touch away. However, tonight, this demon fox desperately wanted to attack the girl idol named Mai Shiraishi. If it weren't for the Dusk Police Department's desperate efforts to block and slash the demon fox, Mai Shiraishi would hardly have survived.
After sending the Twilight Police Department and Mai Shiraishi to the hospital, Officer Sato, who was puzzled, rushed directly to the Taisha Shrine, hoping to get the help of Chiya, the Onmyoji.
Just when Officer Sato was about to sit still, Chiya walked out with a white sword in his hand and Nanami Hashimoto and Wakadie.
"Mr. Chiba!" The moment he saw Chiya, Officer Sato stood up and looked at Chiya with a look of hope, but he suddenly saw Nanami Hashimoto standing beside Chiya, and shouted in surprise, "Nanamin? ”
Qianye glanced at Officer Sato curiously, then looked at Nanami Hashimoto who looked puzzled beside him, and asked Officer Sato, "Officer Sato knows Miss Hashimoto?" ”
Officer Sato hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I'm a rice from Nogizaka 46, I've been to the handshake party, and I've only seen Nanamin." ”
"Oh, I see." Chiya nodded and asked Officer Sato, "Officer Sato, what the hell is going on?" How could that demon fox beat Officer Twilight to the point of serious injury? ”
"I'm wondering about it, too." Officer Sato explained to Chiya with a puzzled expression: "Originally, last night, the Twilight Police Department had already repelled the demon fox with the help of 'Oni Cut' and saved a victim. But tonight, for some reason, it kept trying to attack its victim, Miss Shiraishi. If it hadn't been for the Dusk Police Department desperately slashing it, I'm afraid Miss Shiraishi wouldn't have been spared tonight. ”
Hearing Officer Sato's words, Nanami Hashimoto asked urgently, "Is Mai okay?" How is she now? ”
"Miss Shiraishi just got scratched on her arm, she fainted from the impact, and now she has been sent to the hospital." Officer Sato did not explain Mai Shiraishi's situation to Nana Hashimoto.
Chiya frowned, thought about Officer Sato's words, thought for a while and said to Officer Sato, "I don't understand the current situation very well. According to what you said about Officer Sato, this demon fox is undoubtedly afraid of 'onikiri', but tonight it is fearless to attack Miss Shiraishi, and there must be something in this that is not clear. I'm afraid that I will only be able to answer this question when I see Miss Shiraishi next. ”
Nana Hashimoto didn't hear Chiya say this, so she hurriedly said to Chiya: "Then let's go to the hospital quickly, I'm still not worried about Mai." ”
"I'm coming by car, let's take my car!" Officer Sato also said on the side.
Qianye nodded and said to Ruodie, "Ruodie, you protect Miss Hashimoto." With that, he walked towards the outside of the shrine. And after Ruodie heard Qianye's order, she followed directly behind Nanami Hashimoto.
The four got into a police car driven by Officer Sato and headed for the hospital.
Ruodie, who was sitting in the back seat, held Hashimoto Nanawei's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry too much, even if the injury is serious, the master has a way to save her." Besides, he was only scratched on the arm and fainted from the impact. ”
Nana Hashimoto nodded worriedly, but still said uneasily: "Mai's dream since childhood is to be a model, if there is a scar on her arm, her future career will definitely be affected." Nogizaka 46 has just debuted on a CD single, and this kind of thing is too big a blow to Mai. ”
"Don't worry, if it's just a scar, I have an exclusive secret recipe here to get rid of the scar. It is guaranteed to leave no traces and is as delicate and flawless as a newborn's skin. Ruodie smiled and comforted Nanami Hashimoto.
