Kanoya Yukino gave a general account of what she knew about Akaremi-sama.

The relevant information is not far from what Kamiya River has explored on the island during the day today.

The fact that Asakawa Hanpei is a yo festival has also been verified.

"So, do you know how to find Lady Red Ray, or where to find it?"

Kamiyagawa quietly listened to Kanoya's narration and asked.

"Well, I know someone, and that person probably knows."

Kanoya said after a moment's thought.

"Alone?" Kamiya just smiled and continued with her words, "The person you're talking about shouldn't be Lord Chi Ling himself, right?" ”

"How is that possible!"

"Is that man in alliance with the Red Ray?"

"No, the red ray is a great evil god. And the person I know is a good person. ”

Although the two kept saying "how is that person", they were talking about whether the object of the conversation was a person or not, and they knew each other tacitly.

In this way, the little girl of Luyeya still has a slight meaning of elbowing outward.

In short, according to what she meant, the weird talk behind her should be neutral.

"Okay, can I meet that person?" Kamiyagawa continued to ask.

Shikanoya hesitated for a while and shook his head: "No, that person said that you are very dangerous, and he should not want to see you." ”

"If the person you're talking about isn't an alliance with the Red Ray, then I think he'll be willing to see me. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and I, an outsider, only think about dealing with red rays, and that doesn't hurt the person you know. ”

"That'...... I'll help you ask. Kanoya thought about it for a while, and finally made up his mind to help Kamiyagawa.

"Thank you."

"First of all, when I go to see that man, you can't follow me with that weird talk of your men."

"Huh...... No, he's not following you anymore. ”

Kamiyagawa smiled, it seems that this little girl already knows about the little old man.

The two sat at the house of Deer Wild House for a while, mainly as a way to keep in touch with each other.

After a while, the little JC painter and the strange talk behind her are exchanged, and quickly contact Kamiyagawa.

Kanoya saved Kamiya's phone number on her mobile phone, and then, as if she had thought of something, she raised her dark eyes to look at Kamiya: "That's right, the wheel of fortune." That one...... What do you think? ”

Kamiya didn't understand the little girl's sudden question: "What do you think?" Anyway, don't call me by strange names. ”

"That's it...... yes, about the cartoons I draw. Didn't you say you watched it...... You'll also feel that I'm a ...... Is she a bad girl who is indecent? ”

Although she always keeps saying that she doesn't care what other people think.

But, how can you really not care?

Especially after being said like that by Kimi Nishii.

"Ah......h

Kamiyagawa was going to leave, but he was suddenly asked by this little girl's question, and he was slightly stunned.

This question is not easy to answer.

Is Kanoya a bad girl who is unscrupulous?

Although I haven't had much contact with her, Kamiya definitely doesn't agree with this statement.

As for her hobby of drawing books.

I don't understand, but respect.

Anyway, book painters are also a legal profession in Japan.

And as far as Kamiya is concerned, as far as the manuscript of "Vacation Rhapsody" is concerned, not to mention, there is something about Kanoya.

It's really good.

You can draw like this at a young age, but if you grow up, you can still do it?

This must not be the same as the famous water dragon teacher, doll game teacher and other industry elders, perennial dominance of the Tiger's Den commercial single book list, and then make money every day?

It's a future star in the realm!

It's Shikanoya's age......

Kamiyagawa doesn't know at what age he can be a book artist in Japan, but it's a bit too early to think about 14 years old.

"What, your age...... I think you might have to be a little bit older and try to work in this field again? Well, if you think waiting two years will be a waste of your talent and a waste of time, I don't think I said it...... I respect your personal hobbies, after all, as long as it does not affect others, abide by the law, and do whatever you want is your own freedom. And you draw very well, and the future is promising. ”

Kamiyagawa thought about this and said to Kanoya.

And the latter, as he listened, his face began to turn red.

A pair of bare feet, stretched out under the warm table, twisted back and forth against each other for a long time, and only after half a sound did they speak in a voice as thin as a mosquito and a fly:

"That's not a hobby of mine. I paint those, I paint those paintings because ......"

Kanoya hesitated for a while, but finally didn't say anything.

She couldn't hold back just now, and revealed a little information about the eight-foot girl to Kamiyagawa more tactfully.

There is also a limit to the elbow turning outward, and if I say something else, I will not have the face to see the eight-foot lord in a while.

"Because of what?" Kamiya was confused.

"Nothing."

Like, the feeling of being misunderstood......

It's not that cool either.

……

Kamiyagawa walked out of Kanoya's house.

Next, the little JC painter said that she would talk to "the person she knew".

Kamiya didn't send a weird talk or follow her personally.

Since you want to have a formal conversation with the weird talk behind the back, this respect still has to be given.

"Regarding the second strange story on the island, I walked around the town with a small silver stick today, and talked to many people, and I can basically conclude that there are basically no other strange things on the island except for the matter of Lord Red Ray."

In other words, the strange talk behind the deer field house is relatively low-key, and there is a high probability that it has not had any intersection with other humans. Combined with Xiao JC's relatively simple temperament, the strange talk behind her may be a neutral one worth wooing. ”

Kamiyagawa thought as he walked.

"Big Husband、いつか大Husband になる......"

At this time, the mobile phone rings.

Uncle Yuuki called.

"Hello?"

"Boy, are you investigating the Aragami named Akaremi-sama in Aomori Prefecture? Your master told you to go? ”

Yuuki Shinkenyu's side, as soon as he came up, there were continuous questions.

It can be heard that the uncle still cares about Kamiya, an outstanding young soul slayer.

"yes. Do you have any clues about the Aragami Festival, uncle? ”

"I just asked someone to look it up, but I don't think I will get much useful information. In my personal experience, it's likely that the boy you mentioned in the message you sent me to become a sacrifice is hopeless. ”

"That's ......"

"Well, maybe you can try to kill that Aragami monster early. But I'm not sure if it's useful, because we don't know enough about the nature of that Aragami. I've also read the documents that the organization sorted out and submitted to your master, but we still know too little about Lord Red Ray. ”

The situation is the same as Uncle Yuuki said.

Even the official records related to "Lord Red Ray" are only a few pages.

I only know that there is a legend in Aomori Prefecture related to the stingray-sama, and that the red stingray festival is held in some areas, and that's it.

Before Kamiyagawa reported the situation, the people of the organization didn't even know that Akatika-sama was really operating near Oguri Island.

】

After all, there are too many records of strange stories of all kinds across the country.

Whether the strange rumors that have been circulating in a certain place have really come to the corresponding area are completely uncertain.

Official organizations usually only notice after there is a real stir in response to the strange talk.

Therefore, all kinds of spirit-removing activities are generally carried out passively.

It belongs to fighting fires everywhere.

Like the previous Da Da array retreating to treat the epidemic god, this kind of early initiative layout is relatively rare.

"I see."

Kamiya nodded, not showing any disappointment.

"I read the message you just sent, and it means that you and your master are going to attack Lord Chi Ma on Oguri Island?" Uncle Yuuki asked again.

"For now, that's the case."

"Are you sure?"

"There are some."

"If Lord Red Stingray really needs the Aragami of the living sacrifice, then I will polish his report, and I should try to apply for some manpower to assist you. However, I'm taking Nagatomo to remove the spirit here in Nagasaki now, and I can't get out of my body for a while. It takes time to report and review, and it takes even more time to schedule people. Can you wait? ”

"I can't say for sure. But if someone can help, that's for the best. ”

"Okay, I'll try. Boy, be safe yourself. ”

"Uh-huh."

The situation on the official side, Kamiyagawa is aware.

There is a shortage of manpower, especially the number of elite soul slayers who can take charge on their own is even smaller.

The usual manpower is basically invested in several important metropolitan areas.

The elite are generally busy fighting fires everywhere and have no skills.

In a remote place like Oguri Island, unless something really happens, it is difficult to take care of it.

Not to mention anything else, just say that last time I put up a big battle to deal with the god of the epidemic. It was a battle fought in Tokyo, and the number of elite soul slayers mobilized in the end was not too much, and Uncle Yuuki was the main commander of that battle, and even put some ordinary special police forces into battle.

There is a serious shortage of elite personnel in official organizations, and this has always been an objective problem.

Therefore, just based on a sentence from Kamiyagawa and a report from Uncle Yuuki, it is impossible to organize a few good hands to be parachuted into Oguri Island to help.

It really can't be done.

"Of course, it's best if the official side can send someone over, but if you can't send it for a while, there's no way to do it...... At present, it is estimated that the time to crusade against Lord Red Stingray is only the last few days of the Red Stingray Festival. As soon as the sacrifice dies and the sacrifice is completed, if Lord Red Stingray sneaks back into the deep sea, then even if the [Blank Divine Tree] is opened, it is estimated that he will not be found. ”

"Far water can't dissolve near fire. Rather than waiting for the official organization to send someone to help, it is better to try to win over the strange talk behind the deer no house and join me in the crusade against Lord Red Ray. This not only improves the certainty of victory in the crusade, but also makes it more feasible. ”

After that, Kamiya also received a call from Onizuka.

The little witch helped to inquire about the mother-in-law, but she was also not sure about the matter of the Aragami sacrifice.

And after talking on the phone, Kamiyagawa learned that Onizuka is also doing soul removal work these days.

The two finally told each other to be safe, and hung up the phone.

……

After leaving Kanoya's house, Kamiya did not immediately return to the hotel, but came to the vicinity of Asakawa Hanpei's house.

Originally, he was trying to find a reason to meet the boy who became a priest again.

Let's see if we can get any more clues.

But as soon as I walked to the door of Asakawa House, I saw the Asakawa family and his wife holding Asakawa Hanpei and rushing out in a hurry.

"Banping, hold on, we'll take you to the hospital right away!"

"What's going on, what the hell is going on!"

The couple didn't even put on their coats, held their children in their arms, and trotted out down the street, completely ignoring Kamiyagawa, who was standing outside their house.

Kamiya stood silently and watched them leave.

Just now, he stared at Tong Kong and glanced at Asakawa Hanpei, who was held in his father's arms.

The little boy's life was even stronger.

And when I saw him during the day, he was still white and chubby.

But now when I see it again at night, I only feel that the other party seems to have lost some weight, and his face is not as round as it used to be.

It's like the fat in your body has been sucked away by something.

"So, is it really hopeless......"

……

The hospital in town.

There is only one doctor on duty tonight.

He examined Asakawa Hanpei for a while, and couldn't see what was wrong with the kid or what disease he had.

In the end, he could only hang normal saline and explain that he should be transferred to a big hospital outside as soon as possible tomorrow morning for treatment.

Mr. and Mrs. Asakawa could only anxiously accompany their children that night.

And Asakawa Banping, who was lying on the hospital bed, looked very weak at this time, and even a little out of phase, and he had a high fever all the time, and the whole person was confused.

Mr. and Mrs. Asakawa really couldn't understand why Hanpei, who was originally very healthy and lively, suddenly became what he is now.

At about twelve o'clock in the evening, visitors came to the hospital.

It is the mayor of Maruyama in Oguri Town.

The mayor also brought a middle-aged man, who was the captain of a fishing boat, surnamed Iwasita.

The two came to visit Banping.

Mr. and Mrs. Asakawa did not expect that the mayor of the town would visit at night for the sake of their child's illness.

However, the mayor has always been kind to others, and his reputation among the villagers is also very good.

A few adults chatted for a while.

Until the bed of Asakawa Hanhei barely awake a little.

Mayor Maruyama: "Asakawa, you two have had a hard time tonight. Didn't you say you hadn't even eaten dinner yet? It's better to fill your stomach first, and I'll take care of it for a while. By the way, I also brought some food for the child. ”

In this regard, although Mr. and Mrs. Asakawa felt a little strange, they were also grateful.

The relationship between the villagers in the town is still simple in the end.

Moreover, the mayor's character has always been very good.

Captain Iwashita is also a reliable and enthusiastic person.

After thanking the husband and wife, they went home from the hospital first, planning to boil some porridge for Banping and bring it back.

After confirming that Mr. and Mrs. Asakawa had completely left, Mayor Maruyama and Captain Iwashita came to Hanpei's bed.

"Kid, are you feeling better?"

"Hmm......" Hanping nodded reluctantly.

Maruyama: "I heard that you fainted while playing on the beach in the west the other day, did something strange happen at that time?" ”

"I don't remember ......"

"Uncle Iwashita has two portraits here, have you seen the people in the portraits recently?"

Captain Iwashita spoke, and pulled two pieces of paper out of his pocket.

Two portraits are drawn on the paper, one of an old man in a bright red kimono and the other of an old woman in rags.

One is rich, the other is sour.

Hanpei didn't know why the two uncles came to ask him such a question, but he still raised his hand and pointed to the drawing of the old man in the bright red kimono.

He couldn't tell the difference now, and he couldn't remember whether he had seen this old man in a red kimono in a dream, or if he had seen it in reality.

"Okay, kid. Rest well, and your mom and dad will bring you something to eat in a moment. ”

Captain Iwashita put away both pieces of paper.

The two carefully accompanied them for a while, and stayed by the half-flat bed until the Asakawa couple returned, and then said goodbye and left.

Out of the hospital door, Mayor Maruyama's expression finally became happy and relieved:

"It's Lord Red Ray, that's right. At night, I heard that the child fainted, but I didn't feel anything. But now to confirm, it's really Lord Red Stingray who has returned. ”

"yes." Captain Iwashita also nodded, his expression unbearably delighted, but then he thought of something, "But, the Asakawa family ......"

"There's no way around it, it's not something we can stop." Mayor Maruyama shook his head with a little regret, "After that, I will take a condolence money from the money of the fishing club and give it to Mr. and Mrs. Asaka." ”

"yes......"

Both tacitly agreed not to continue to talk about the Asakawa family.

Turning to incendiary words such as "today's catch will be a good harvest," he left the hospital in parallel.
