Chapter Seventy-Eight: Mt. Takao

"Do you know what that youkai is?" Wakaki asked.

As the editor of the newspaper, he has always thought that his mind is very good, but this time he still feels a little frustrated that he has not even figured out what the essence of the yokai is.

Wakasugi shook her head.

"I don't know, but the ability he is showing now is nothing more than the mental and control aspects, and the thinking and god must be particularly restrained in the spiritual ability, because he is the god who holds the wisdom."

Hearing this, the Wood Winged Man disagreed: "But no one can guarantee that this is the full ability of that monster, in case..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly froze, and after thinking about Wakasugi China's words, he noticed something.

"You mean there's something wrong with that youkai?"

Wakasugi Qianna nodded: "If he attacked Ryuto to erase all the risks that might reveal his identity, then why didn't he strike again after that?" You must know that there is no power to resist after Ryuto. ”

Ruomu Wingren suddenly understood what she meant, and added her later words.

"Since that youkai can accurately know the location of all the police officers around, it means that the surrounding situation is under his control, and there is no reason not to know the situation of Ryuto!"

"And one more thing, why wasn't the team of policemen who were with Ryuto killed? Obviously, they don't have any transcendentals there, as long as they kill them, then the information behind them will not be transmitted to the special class at all, and he can still follow his disguise! ”

"That's right!"

The more he said it, the more he felt right, and even his usual plain face couldn't help but become a little more active.

This was a stone that had been pressing on his heart for many days, and he suddenly saw the hope of moving away, and there was no reason to be unhappy.

"Something must be wrong with that youkai! Otherwise, if you have a little brain, you will definitely not care about spending more hands and feet to erase all the risks of exposure! ”

"That youkai doesn't look like he has a brain problem."

If you start from the point that youkai are restricted, then where are youkai most likely?

Wakasugi China and Wakaki Tsubasa glanced at each other, and they thought of a place at the same time.

That is where this incident originated -

"Mt. Takao!"

......

The Special Section didn't know about the situation of Shiba Ryuto, but that didn't prevent them from coming up with a similar result.

And unlike them, the Metropolitan Police Department can deduce the possible hiding places of many mysterious yokai based on various intelligence, and they also have enough ability and manpower to detect them.

However, as they speculated, the Metropolitan Police Department finally determined that there was only one most likely hiding place for the mysterious monster, and that was Mt. Takao, which is suspected to be the first case.

As early as a few days ago, the Metropolitan Police Department had notified the local police station to restrict the passage of Mt. Takao, and now the top of Mt. Takao is very quiet, not at all like the crowds on weekdays.

A group of officers from the special section were busy at the foot of the mountain.

After so many days of hard work, they finally roughly restored the original hiking route of the two gods and one tree.

This is not an easy task.

Although Nigami and Ichiki also remembered that they had climbed Mt. Takao, when the special class asked the only three remaining people about their route to climb the mountain at that time, they were horrified to find that they and the others had no relevant impressions, and what was even more terrifying was that they didn't even think there was a problem at all before being asked, as if they had deliberately ignored it.

For this reason, the Special Division organized some Hachioji City police to conduct a search in the huge mountainous area of Mt. Takao, and it took nearly ten days to discover a mountain road with traces of opening.

There are two gods and one tree on the trail, so it is almost certain that this is the trail they opened up when they climbed the mountain.

"How? Did the satellites find anything? ”

Ayako Todai couldn't help but ask as she watched the technician next to her quickly control the computer.

Since the initial problem arose in the middle of a suspicious temple, the special class must have determined the location of the temple first.

As long as the location of the temple can be confirmed, then in the end, it really can't be done, they can directly raze it with missiles, anyway, it's no man's land.

But the reality is not so simple.

The technician stretched the perspective of satellite monitoring in the computer and looked for a long time, but finally could only shake his head helplessly.

Well, as expected.

Todai Ayako's face became solemn.

If there is a temple in such a no-man's land, food and daily necessities alone are a big problem, and it is impossible not to know about the surroundings.

So there's a high probability that the temple was also an illusion created by a mysterious monster, or it was simply not in this world.

Now that the simplest and crudest method has been declared invalid, the special class can only be more troublesome-

The transcendent troops of the Special Division went up along the route that the two gods and one tree had taken them.

Asako Todai, Aya Sonoda, and the three wielders of the exorcism sword were all counted, but although they were the most powerful combat power in the special class at the moment, the core of this operation was not them, but the priests and shrine maidens who were protected by them.

After finding the youkai, these priests and shrine maidens will jointly perform a sΓ©ance ceremony, calling for the power of the mind and god to come and finally solve the youkai.

This is the safest option.

"Mr. Nigami, you really can't remember anything? Even if it's just a little detail. ”

Ayako Todai took her phone and looked at the two gods and Kazuki on the screen, hoping that he would recall something.

Although Nigami and Ichiki have basically confirmed that he is still an ordinary human, it is naturally impossible for the special class to let him go at will for the sake of safety, and he is still left in the Metropolitan Police Department in the name of assisting in the investigation, at least until the monster is confirmed to be eliminated before letting him go.

In the video, Kazuki Nigami covered his head tightly with his hands, desperately recalling, his expression was very painful, but he still couldn't answer anything.

Ayako Todai frowned.

Obviously, don't expect him to remember anything at such a time.

She put down her phone and looked at her sister standing in the middle of the line in front of her.

With her affinity, Asako Todai quickly became acquainted with the new priests and shrine maidens, and now it didn't seem abrupt at all to float between them.

Looking at her sister's bright smile from afar, Todai Ayako pulled her eyelids slightly.

The afternoon sun shone directly on the earth, but a small section of sunlight was intercepted because of a tree.

The sun fell on Ayako Todai, and the shadow just crossed the bridge of her nose to obscure her upper part, and her eyes were also obscured by the shadow.

From a distance, it looks a little gloomy.
