108 a week later
A week later, the group arrived at Wakkanai, Hokkaido, the northernmost point of neon.
Wakkanai faces the Pacific Ocean, across the Soya Strait from Sakhalin Island in the Russian Far East.
The sea breeze in late spring is still cool, mixed with fishy and salty smells, and the sea is vast as far as the eye can see.
Tsukasa Kurihara looked out at the horizon, and in the distance there was an endless stream of ships coming and going in the Soya Strait, all of which were ships with large drafts, and there were both passenger and cargo ships. At this moment, the huge ship became a small dot on the surface of the sea.
The water marks of the boat were quickly smoothed out by the waves, and the tide rushed to the shore in waves, and the sound of the waves was undulating.
As Qiu said, the fox marriage is all a difficult ancient road, overgrown with weeds and dense forests.
Use a fox fire to open the way as you go, and from the perspective of a satellite map, you can see that there is a winding black road on top of the neon ridge in a deserted place.
and the sun rain described in the marriage of the fox.
Wherever you go, the sun, rain and rainbows follow Akane.
The sky is never dark, and at night the stars are lit up, and the wildflowers that have passed the season are all in full bloom, especially the cherry blossoms.
After a week of peering, there is a delicate balance in the relationship.
Tsukasa Kurihara is like an elder in a tour group, and the three foxes are juniors, who don't talk much and respect each other.
Akane, who was originally hostile to Qingqiu, introduced and explained from time to time in the same group through Qiu, and her hostility towards Qingqiu turned into curiosity - after all, she was a fox, and Akane had a natural yearning for her kind. And because of autumn, Akane even has a lot of good feelings for Qingqiu.
When they arrive at Wakkanai, Aki and Kaede take Akane to other places first, leaving Tsukasa Kurihara to wait a little.
Tsukasa Kurihara takes the furball to the beach.
After becoming a dog, the hairball's personality also developed in the direction of the dog, and after getting the permission of Tsukasa Kurihara, he ran back and forth on the beach.
And at this moment, in a level that the hairball can't even see, Mei Xiangpo respectfully stands beside Tsukasa Kurihara and explains to him: "My lord, over there, that's the entrance to the Strange Tale Prison - if I'm not mistaken." ”
Looking along the fingers of the Bud Sister, it is the end of the view of Tsukasa Kurihara.
There was nothing there, there seemed to be an invisible force that kept the ships away from that area, and even the waves were inexplicably much calmer.
Actually, you don't need to say it, Tsukasa Kurihara also knows. It was an automatic reaction of his body.
As the body of the Demon Lord, he is naturally no stranger to the place he wants to escape.
Because of the influence of his body, Tsukasa Kurihara had a great impulse to flash directly into the calm sea, his shoulder blades about to move, and the feeling of a foreign body breaking out of his body continued to hit his brain. He could faintly hear the Demon Lord's cold words.
"You did a good job and didn't cheat on me."
Tsukasa Kurihara closed his eyes, clenched his fists, and a few drops of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
Ya Xiangpo sensed it almost immediately after the strangeness of the Kurithara Division, such an aura is so familiar, who is it·······
However, before she could think about it, the aura and coercion that evoked her memories suddenly disappeared, and she looked up to see Tsukasa Kurihara's dark and cold eyes.
"You know Qingqiu, right?" Tsukasa Kurihara said.
Ya Xiangpo bowed her head and replied: "I know this." ”
"Hmm." Tsukasa Kurihara motioned for her to continue.
In the mouth of Ya Xiangpo, Qingqiu has existed a long time ago. Originally, it was just a place where spirits gathered - there were raccoons, ferrets, cats, foxes, wild boars, snakes, etc. Qingqiu was originally a place where all the spirits gathered.
But from a certain point on, foxes gradually became the dominant species in the area. Especially after the emergence of several outstanding figures in the fox population, the other species in Qingqiu were forced to leave under pressure, and later became the territory of foxes.
The negotiation between the Qingqiu fox and the Inari Shrine has been heard of, and he only knows that the Qingqiu will send the fox to become the messenger of the Inari Shrine, but the specific situation is not clear. However, because of the entanglement with the Inari Shrine, Aooka became a caretaker at the moment when the strange talk of the prison appeared.
He is the caretaker of the human world, and the caretaker of the strange talk prison, along with the onmyoji.
"Qingqiu Fox guards the enchantment." "Let the humans who appear near the barrier leave, and the strange talk that tries to break out of the barrier will be suppressed." That's what they do, and that's why they can still exist in the human world. ”
"You know a lot." Tsukasa Kurihara said meaningfully.
Bud wanted to laugh and didn't respond.
"However, you said before that as long as you and Kiritaro can open the enchantment, what is the matter with this Qingqiu fox guarding the enchantment."
"There are always blind spots in everything. If it's you, as long as Kiritaro appears, I have a way to bypass Aogaoka's monitoring. Ya Xiangpo said confidently.
Suddenly, Tsukasa Kurihara thought of something and said, "About a month ago, did you sense that someone had passed through the barrier?" ”
"I was in the process of decomposing at that time." Ya Xiangpo said calmly, "Half over there, half over here, chaotic, when you wake up, you have appeared in the park, and you don't know what happened during the period." ”
Tsukasa Kurihara nodded, thinking that this was how it should be. Otherwise, he would have been discovered long ago when he entered the strange talk prison and came out again.
On the other hand, within a week of Tsukasa Kurihara's trip to Wakkanai, everything that happened in the park had been cut out by the program team working overtime and broadcast in the late night file.
With the "Thousand People Concert Supernatural Event" some time ago, another strange event that appeared at this moment caught the attention of a considerable number of people.
It begins with a solo interview with Beyoshi, interspersed with a general explanation of the incident, and then the crowd gathers to go to the apartment. The less than half-hour program was full of doubts and reversals, especially the scene where the camera overturned and happened to shoot the scene of everyone in a coma at the end, which caused countless netizens to explain and speculate.
Because of this episode, Hieda Shrine, where Beyoshi works, became famous in the Tokyo ratings, and Ayun Beyoshi himself became well-known to the public, and the number of pilgrims who wanted to visit him increased exponentially. In addition to Beiyoshi, Nobu Oshima, Minami Kato, Muraki and Takaoka who participated in the survey all gained fame to varying degrees. At the same time, they all became believers in the unthinkable.
In particular, Muraki and Takaoka have become strange missionaries.
It is predictable that Tsukasa Kurihara, who shines on the show, will be widely discussed by the public on the Internet.
The mysterious aura that emanates from all over his body is fascinating. But under the heated public discussion, he is still mysterious, as if he appeared out of thin air.
There was no one who claimed to be his elementary school classmates, junior high school classmates, high school classmates, college classmates, or siblings, elders, community administrators, or bosses, as if he had no social interaction.
However, the more mysterious it is, the more it stimulates the public's curiosity and inquiry.
The "Search for Tsukasa Kurihara" campaign has appeared on a small area of the Internet, mostly on online forums for paranormal horror enthusiasts.
Especially on Reiko's weird talk site.
