Jade is dead......

The high priest was the first to perceive the death of that person, and all those who had attained the divine law were born or died within his perception.

In less than a minute, 3,743 believers died, and now even Jade is gone.

Such a huge sacrifice that even the high priest could not ease his strength for a while, and he was stunned on the streets of Tokyo.

"Are you alright?" A young woman asked cautiously.

The high priest came back to his senses, shook his head, and said, "It's okay. ”

"But you're in tears, what's so sad about you?"

The young woman's words became more and more gentle, and she wanted to comfort the sad blonde handsome man, from the inside out, with her own warmth to soothe the scars in the other person's heart.

The high priest gently wiped away the tears that flowed from his hand, and said calmly, "It's okay." ”

In order to achieve the cause of saving mankind, he has long been determined to sacrifice everything, and he has not been immersed in grief for too long, and his mind is shrouded in doubts.

The FBI has clearly said that they will disrupt and delay the attack on Hokkaido.

Why do it so quickly?

He thought, he needed a reasonable explanation.

The high priest left the noisy crowd and returned to his small inn room, where he was temporarily staying, "Jire. ”

Pronouncing the name, the space is faintly fluctuating.

A blonde boy suddenly appeared, sitting leisurely on the bed, wearing a peaked cap and a few freckles on his face, and smiled, "I knew you were looking for me." ”

"What's going on?"

The high priest asked.

Ji Lei spread out his hand and said nonchalantly: "We don't know, it seems that there are eight realm powerhouses who have made a move, alone, and wiped out all the people you left behind." ”

The high priest raised his golden eyebrows and said, "Jed's sacrifice in Hokkaido has obtained a more powerful divine law, even if someone from the eighth realm makes a move, it is impossible to kill him easily." ”

"The truth is that he's dead."

Giray smiled and replied, "You're so lucky, if you stay there, you'll die." ”

The high priest did not hesitate to say, "I will not die until the great cause is accomplished." ”

"Huh."

Giray smiled, feeling that the man in front of him and Director George were the same kind of people.

They are always ambitious, looking at the distant future, loving the humans they imagine, but never caring about the humans around them.

The heroes of the ages and presents seem to have this character.

To be able to set one's sights on one's own happiness after making great sacrifices is already a wise one.

"I think people still have to have a sense of awe, there is an old Chinese saying that is good, do your best, know the destiny of heaven."

"Destiny? I never believed in the ethereal. ”

The high priest's tone was harder than granite, and he believed in God, and God really existed.

As for the so-called mandate of heaven, in his eyes, it is nothing more than a pretext for the loser and a humble word for the victor, which is not worth mentioning.

He firmly believes that man will conquer heaven.

"Well, I think Destiny does exist," Giray shrugged, staying at the FBI, he had seen a lot of ambitious heroes.

They go from the spring breeze to the end of regret, often due to a moment of bad luck.

Merlin, the leader of the Fairy Guild, is a good example of this.

After so many years of evading the fairy killer Adolf, once he was accidentally caught, the ambition hidden in that chest became evaporated.

However, Giray did not try to convince the high priest to believe in the Mandate of Heaven, and those who have reached this state have three views that no one else can interfere with, "This is the end of the small talk.

On behalf of Director George, I convey to you that our cooperation is over, and that we will henceforth be in a hostile relationship. ”

"Hmm." The high priest replied that this decision was expected, and that cooperation based on interests would disintegrate as interests disappeared.

Gire's body disappeared into the house, and the High Priest didn't choose to stop him, he had more important things to do, and that was to recover the stolen Ice Scepter.

……

"Hello everyone, I'm Yui reporter from TV Tokyo~"

The young woman held the microphone and greeted the audience in front of the TV, "It's 10 o'clock in the morning on April 6, and as you can see, the snowstorm that enveloped Hokkaido has untied today.

Through the efforts of all parties, the broken sky was filled and the snow on the ground was cleared.

Hokkaido has been completely cleared of the influence of the god of winter, and the government will continue to relocate a large number of people to restore Hokkaido's former prosperity as soon as possible. ”

"Hehe, those guys can really put gold on their faces."

In the gloomy room, the woman with messy hair gave a disdainful mockery, did not forget to grab the potato chips with one hand, and stuffed them into her mouth, "Obviously, the matter that ended on the fourth was dragged to the sixth, and when I saw that no one came forward to take credit, I shamelessly regarded it as my own achievement." ”

"I really can't stand the dirty politics of those uncles."

The woman complained, stretched out her foot and pressed the remote control, switching to the anime channel, friendship, hard work, victory, this is the beautiful thing that people should appreciate.

Ding Dong.

"Wow~" She was so frightened that the potato chips fell to the ground, the thick lenses almost slipped off the bridge of her nose, her hand hurriedly pushed, and her heart raced to look out of the door.

Someone ringing her doorbell?

Did you do something wrong? No, no, she sorts the garbage and throws it away, and the front door is always carefully cleaned around one o'clock in the middle of the night.

The sound of the TV was never half on.

It should be those door-to-door guys, right?

She swallowed, curled up, and pretended to be no one in the house to get them to leave.

Why do people always ignore the slogan that prohibits sales at the door?

"Bastard, send me hell."

She muttered, her hand pushed the frame again, and the doorbell stopped, and the salesman must have left.

"Whew." She breathed a sigh of relief.

The cold in the house suddenly became heavier, and there was no reason for such a cold in April.

"Yuzu Sakurai."

The man's voice suddenly sounded in the house, and she almost immediately wanted to hide in the netherworld, "Or is it better to call you the Huangquan Ferryman?" ”

A terrifying chill rose from her heart, and Sakurai Yuzu did not choose to escape into the netherworld.

Her intuition told her that the moment she cast the spell, the person would be killed by the other party.

She slowly raised her hands and said very heartily: "I'm sorry, please spare my life, I'm willing to do anything." ”

is different from the domineering when burning incense, the face-to-face Sakurai Yuzu is a full social fear.

She hadn't tried to communicate with people in hundreds of years.

The high priest stood in the room, looking down at the woman in front of him, very sloppy and casual khaki tracksuit, and the waist-length hair that had not been combed for an unknown amount of time, like weeds.

Wearing black-rimmed glasses with thick lenses.

She posed as a standard earth seat, and there was no demeanor that a strong person should have.

The High Priest couldn't have imagined that his plan was actually ruined by this kind of cowardice, so he suppressed his anger and said, "What about the Ice Scepter? ”

"What Ice Scepter?" Sakurai Yuzu replied in a trembling voice.

The High Priest's eyes were cold, "The only way to steal the Ice Scepter without me noticing it is to take action from the Surface."

You are the most famous watch powerhouse in Japan, and you are famous for recognizing money and not people, and I can't think of a second person other than you who can do that kind of thing. ”

"You, you're the High Priest?!"

Sakurai Yuzu's body trembled even more, her teeth fought up and down, and the first thought was that my life was over.

The second thought was, what about the eleven-digit deposits in Swiss banks?

"Woohoo." She burst into tears, and the money she had earned over the years had hardly been spent, and she had saved it all.

Looking at the numbers on her bank account every day is her greatest pleasure.

Thinking that her hard-earned money was gone, she cried even more sadly, "Woo, please don't kill me." ”

The High Priest said with a cold face, "To answer my question, where is the Ice Scepter?" ”

"I, I gave it to Hojo Hiiragi, if you want, you can go to him and get it."

Sakurai Yuzu replied in a choked voice, wiped her snot with her hand, and wiped her sportswear casually.

The high priest said coldly, "Where is he?" ”

"I don't know, he and I are the relationship between the merchant and the guest, I only provide services, and I don't know anything else."

Change source app, view the latest chapters of the book on multiple sites at the same time. 】

Sakurai Yuzu regretted it, she knew that the high priest was so powerful, she shouldn't have accepted Hojo's order.

But 300 million dollars made her unable to refuse!

The high priest's brow furrowed slightly, he had heard about Hojo.

The red color of the year was extremely sensational.

"I can spare your life."

The high priest thought about it, but still didn't kill Sakurai Yuzu.

This woman is indeed a big thing that hurts him, and in terms of feelings, it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart with a thousand cuts.

But he was never swayed by feelings, and for the sake of the overall situation, he decided to keep her, "You will do things for me in the future." ”

"Okay."

Sakurai Yuzu agreed.

The High Priest saw through her mind and raised his hand, the azure light shining in his palm.

Sakurai Yuzu suddenly felt a chill in her throat, and then a surging coolness appeared in her heart, "This is!" ”

She raised her head reluctantly, and the moment she met her gaze, she lowered her head in a panic and whispered, "What? ”

"I'll put cold rings on your throat and heart."

The high priest explained to her, "Your life and death will depend on my thoughts in the future, so don't try to take it off, as that will cause a cold to erupt."

Your body and soul will freeze. ”

"Hey." Sakurai Yuzu wants to cry without tears, it's terrible, the man is so scary, no, it should be said that the high priest is really scary.

She couldn't stop trembling, and the thought that she couldn't control her future life came back to her heart.

The High Priest said coldly, "Find the Scepter of Ice and prove your loyalty to me, so that I will untie you." ”

"Okay, okay," Sakurai Yuzu nodded repeatedly.

The High Priest didn't stay, he wasn't so naïve as to rely on this woman to find the Scepter of Ice.

He's going to find it himself and pull Hojo out.

The heavy chill left the house, and Sakurai Yuzu continued to lower her head, and only when she didn't hear a sound did she raise her head cautiously and look inside the house.

Not finding the figure of the high priest, she breathed a sigh of relief, collapsed directly on the ground, and said with a broken mouth: "It's over, my stable daily life is completely over, if you join the Winter God Sect, you will be enslaved every day, do unpaid work, and pay them back."

After all, it is an evil organization, and it is definitely a money that is like water, and my hard-earned wealth will disappear in a few nights. ”

"Don't! My money! ”

Yuzu Sakurai rolled on the ground a few times repeatedly, and she suddenly thought of a good idea.

That is to find someone to get rid of the ring on the neck and heart, and then escape into the underworld to avoid being pursued by the high priest.

The question is who to turn to?

She thought of the man who had set the barrier to the netherworld, and maybe she could help with him.

Can...... The farthest distance she physically goes out is from home to the garbage collection place.

Sakurai Yuzu took a deep breath and decided to muster up the courage to fight.

She propped up her body, and if she wanted to go out, it was impossible to continue wearing this comfortable outfit, so she chose to wear a light white dress.

"Hmm~" She put on it with considerable effort, looked at herself in the full-length mirror, and pinched her abdomen with her hand.

In the past, it was so flat that I couldn't pinch it at all, but now I have a small belly.

No wonder she always felt that the dress just now was not smooth.

Sakurai Yuzu sighed, her hand tried to comb her messy waist-length hair with a comb, and after a few attempts, she gave up and began to pack the things she needed to go out and head to the entrance.

She stretched out her hand and unscrewed the door, and the sunlight from the outside world broke into her eyes, which seemed to be some super terrifying yin-yang technique.

The whole world became distorted in her eyes, and an ordinary road grew to the point of no bounds.

The sound of a whistle that was not loud made her tremble.

"Ah, it's terrible, it's terrible to go out, it's better to escape into the underworld." Sakurai Yuzu wants to escape to the familiar netherworld and stop her impulse.

If it weren't for the mission, she wouldn't normally break into the netherworld, which was also terrifying.

She took a few deep breaths, and in a hunched posture, she tried to step out of the house, locked the door, and walked out step by step.

Don't look at people, just look at the phone navigation, Sakurai Yuzu stares at the phone firmly and presses the navigation to the subway station.

People's voices buzzed like a swarm of bees flying in their ears, and the invisible gaze seemed to wonder why someone like her could go out.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Sakurai Yuzu kept muttering in her heart, she didn't even dare to sit, and tried to shrink her body to avoid affecting others.

……

Transfer to the subway and arrive in Nohara City.

This is outside of Tokyo, and there is little traffic in Tokyo.

Relieved by the clean environment, she chose to take a bus with almost no people and get off at Nohara Shrine Station.

The sun shines on the asphalt roads, the mountains are covered with emerald green trees, and the air is not as turbid as Tokyo's.

Sakurai Yuzu breathed a sigh of relief and chose to walk towards Nohara Shrine.

"Hey, do you want to go to Nohara Shrine to ask for marriage?"

The sudden accosting made Sakurai Yuzu startled, and she hurriedly turned her head sideways, and at the supermarket opposite the stone torii, there was a woman with a big belly sitting on a chaise longue at the door, her face full of the glow of maternal love, blinding her eyes.

"Uh, yes." She replied simply, did not dare to delay any longer, and hurried to the steps.

Why is there such a person who can casually greet people he doesn't know?

It's horrible.

Sakurai Yuzu walked up the steps, the wooden worship hall appeared in front of her, and a young man with black hair and good facial features, standing there straight, said, "You don't look like you're looking for fault, what's the matter?" ”

Shiraishi stared at the visitor in front of him, his messy hair, white dress, and pale complexion that looked no different from Sadako from a horror movie.

It's just that she wears black-framed glasses with thick lenses, and her hunched posture is difficult to hide the outline of her chest.

"That, that." Sakurai Yuzu opened her mouth, stammered for a long time, didn't say a word, in a panic, she directly handed over a check with both hands, bowed her head and said, "Please accept it!" ”

“？” Shiraishi was a little confused, and glanced at the amount on the check, it was one million yen, and he was supported? No, it's too cheap, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"I'd like to ask you to help lift the chill ring on my neck and heart."

She doesn't look at people's words, and she can say more clearly, "This is the reward." ”

Sakurai Yuzu is rich, but she never spends money, and she likes to watch the number of her bank accounts increase when she makes money, rather than wanting to live a luxurious life.

Instant noodles, potato chips, and cola are her daily recipes.

One million yen is already the life-saving money she gritted her teeth and squeezed out.

"Oh," Bai Shi suddenly reached out and grabbed the check, but the other party didn't let go, looking at her inferior and sloppy appearance.

Obviously, the Fa is not weak, but he is so mixed that he is reluctant to even give up a million checks.

Bai Shi's heart softened, let go of his hand, and said with a wave: "Okay, the two rings on your body have been lifted." ”

"So fast?" She was stunned, and carefully felt that the coolness in her body, neck and heart had indeed disappeared, and the means set by the high priest had been solved in a second.

This is really a master of the world!

Sakurai Yuzu was full of joy and handed over the check in a very contractual spirit and said, "Please accept it." ”

"The check is waived, and I don't think it's easy for you."

Shiraishi waved his hand, and lifting the ring was a matter of one sentence, and whether he wanted to be rewarded or not depended on his mood.

Now he doesn't want to take it.

"Huh?!" Sakurai Yuzu's three views have been violently impacted, and this is a check for one million yen!

She raised her head, her eyes staring at the man in front of her through thick lenses, only to feel a dazzling light emanating from his body, "Are you a saint?!" ”

"Well, it's not that exaggerated."

Baishi complained, not hundreds of millions, just a million yen, "Do you want to come in and have a cup of tea?" ”

"You're a saint!!" Sakurai Yuzu's face was full of shock, she didn't take her money, and she had to invite her to tea, there is such a moral saint in the world?

"Ahh

Under the light of the saint, she only felt that she was going to be illuminated from the darkness and meanness of her heart, like a cockroach crawling in the garbage can.

Sakurai Yuzu was so frightened that she turned around and ran, it was so dazzling that she couldn't even stay for a moment.

She ran too fast, didn't pay attention to her feet, didn't stand firm, and rolled down the steps completely with Gollum, "Hmm......"

It hurts, she feels sore.

"Hey, you're too careless, I'll treat you."

Shiraishi stopped her wheels just in time.

"Ahh Sakurai Yuzu hurriedly got up, bowed, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" ”

She apologized again and again, and ran down the asphalt road again.

“？” Shiraishi was stunned, this guy is afraid that there is some serious illness in his brain, right? Wait, why did she know she could lift the ring here?

The doubts in Baishi's heart could not be answered, and it was difficult to catch up and ask when he saw the other party's life-threatening appearance.

……

At the door of the supermarket, Suzuko Inoue couldn't help but say, "Scared the little girl to run wildly, what did you do?" ”

"Suzu-chan, don't use that tone that suspects me of being a pervert, okay?"

Shiraishi replied angrily and explained: "I didn't do anything, and I also released the control of her body for free, who knows what crazy she is." ”

He shook his head, didn't rush back to Nohara Shrine, walked across the asphalt road, and came to Suzuko Inoue, "Your belly is getting bigger and bigger, and the child is about to be born, right?" ”

"I want to hurry, this little guy is too grinding." Suzuko Inoue said this, and the expression on her face was full of tenderness.

Shiraishi was curious, "Can I touch it?" ”

Suzuko Inoue smiled and said, "Of course you can." ”

Shiraishi stretched out his hand and put it on her big belly, and through a thin layer of fabric, he seemed to be able to detect the baby's fetal movement inside, which was different from the heartbeat, "He's really moving!" ”

"It's normal to move." Inoue Suzuko gave him a blank look, and there was no movement at this time, so that was the big problem.

"Haha," Shiraishi smiled and said with great interest, "Is it a boy or a girl?" ”

Suzuko Inoue shook her head and said, "We wanted to retain some sense of anticipation, and he even took two names."

If it's a boy, it's called Taketaro Inoue, and if it's a girl, it's called Mirei Inoue. ”

Shiraishi said casually: "The girl's name is good, but if it's a boy, isn't Taketaro too ordinary?" ”

"It's good to be ordinary, and to be able to pass a lifetime of ordinary, this is the greatest happiness."

Inoue Suzuko replied with a smile, when she was young, she was arrogant and unwilling to be mediocre, and wanted to go to distant places to see more scenery and see the world.

When he met a child, his father found out that people, in this life, it is already the greatest luck in life to be able to meet a person he likes, get married and have children.

"That's right," Shiraishi smiled and continued to make small talk for a while, and when he heard Jun Komori greet him for dinner, he said goodbye to Inoue Suzuko and returned to Nohara Shrine.

……

The long staircase stretches upwards, and the spring breeze blows through the branches, making the leaves rustle.

Shiraishi walked up slowly, thinking back to Suzuko Inoue's expression, and a question arose in his heart, what was the expression of October who stayed in his mother's womb?

Is it the boredom of not being able to beat the tire? Or is it like Suzuko Inoue, full of love for him?

It is unimaginable that he has never met his parents in person.

Shiraishi thought to himself, and when he looked up, the wood-colored torii gate seemed to impose a frame on the sky, creating a photograph-like look.

This view reminded him that when he first arrived at Nohara Shrine, he was following Akira.

The sky was not so blue, and the clouds covered the sky, as heavy as his heart.

"What is that guy doing?"

Shiraishi muttered, took out his phone in his hand, thought about it, and sent her a message, "What are you doing?" ”

Staring at the screen for a while, he looked at the unread message, and just wanted to quit, the phone vibrate, and it was actually an invitation to a video call from the other side.
