The next morning, they took the Shinkansen back to Tokyo.

The day before, the five boys were also invited by the organizers of the Jade Dragon Banner to shoot next year's promotional video.

It's a pity that although the five of them are the champions of the men's team competition, the highlight of the promotional video is reserved for other players who have performed well. After all, the men's team championship this year has a lot of water, and the five members of Xiushen Academy have not played a brilliant performance throughout the whole process, and they can hardly find the value of hype. On the contrary, it was a "dare to fight" winner who had worn nearly 30 people in a row in the men's team competition, and finally was eliminated from the quarterfinals because there were only four people in the team and his own physical exhaustion, and was selected by the event as the "tragic protagonist" in the promotional video.

But the five boys were still excited. They never dreamed that they would one day be featured in the promotional video of the national competition, and they discussed it all the way back.

The Shinkansen stops at the Tokyo platform, and people get off the train one by one with their luggage. Even if this Fukuoka expedition is over, they should disperse.

"Mizuhashi-san, thank you so much this time." The girls were chattering around Hideki Mizuhashi, and someone glanced at Makoto Kyushu suggestively and whispered:

"Be sure to come on, we are optimistic about you~"

"Well, thank you!" Eihime Mizuhashi carried a large bag of clothes and cosmetics and bowed gratefully.

These girls are enthusiastic about her love career, and they have been taking her to choose suitable clothes and cosmetics for the past few days, and they have also taught her various makeup and dressing skills, claiming to train her to become "Tokyo's No. 1 Beauty", of course, there are many jokes.

On the boy's side, everyone will deliberately say goodbye to Makoto Kyushu before leaving:

"Thanks to your help this trip, Kyushu-san!"

"Brother Kyushu, come to the kendo club when you have time!"

"Senior brother Kyushu, you are not as bad as rumored. No, it's the students who say bad things about you that have a problem, and I'm not going to listen to them anymore! ”

"Thank you, Kyushu-san. If you have difficulties at school in the future, come to our kendo club! ”

Although these students don't know anything about the "spirit species", after getting along with each other in close proximity these days, they all vaguely guess that Makoto Kyushu has been secretly protecting them, which makes them one of the few participating teams that are safe from attack, and they finish the game in full swing.

What's more, since the hot spring crisis incident on the first day, they have already owed Makoto Kyushu a big favor.

Taking the subway to Shinjuku Station, Makoto Kyushu was carrying his luggage and planning to go home.

For him, although the trip was full of twists and turns, it was also interesting.

The school paid for his travel these days, and Eliza gave him a large sum of money in return after he had defeated the bride. In other words, instead of spending much money on this trip, he made a lot of money, and it is not too much to say that the meter is reversed.

Since joining Yinyangliao, Kyushu Makoto has finally lived a life of abundant food and clothing, which is a good thing for him.

Only when he is rich can he not be tired of running around for five buckets of rice, he can spend more energy on punishing evil and promoting good, helping the weak, and implementing his martial arts more wholeheartedly.

Makoto Kyushu went home and packed his luggage, planning to go out to buy groceries. Just as he was passing by a commercial street, he heard a familiar voice calling out to him:

"It's been a long time, little brother in the red~"

"Long time no see, Miss Night Tour." Kyushu Makoto turned his head, and sure enough, he saw the female soothsayer wearing a black robe and setting up a stall on the side of the road.

Makoto Kyushu sat down in front of her stall and joked, "What's the matter, has my fate changed again?" ”

"Of course, that's why I'm calling you over." Night Tour Tianyin pursed his lips and smiled lightly, took out a set of tarot cards, and placed them on the table covered with black cloth:

"But even if your fate hasn't changed, we can talk a little bit, can't we~?"

With that, Night Tour Tianyin began to shuffle the cards quickly with both hands, and then drew four cards from them.

"The first is the upright [power]." Night Tour Tianyin turned the cards over and said ambiguously:

"Right power, you have made them understand what it means to be powerful. They willingly get on the right track, and they will eventually help you in your life. ”

"The second card is the reversed Hermit." Night Wandering Tianyin turned over the second card, and on it was an old man in a robe holding a lantern:

"The reversed hermit has many meanings, such as lack of courage and backbone, loneliness and loneliness in the heart, being ostracized by others, and can only bury himself in a small space. Although she will not affect your life, it may be a good pastime for you to help her transform into a positive position. ”

"The third card. It's [magician] again~" Night Tour Tianyin turned over the third card and smiled meaningfully:

"[The magician] is swaying, its heart is shaking, and it seems to have developed mixed emotions for you. Interesting, maybe your relationship will go to some extreme, and it all depends on your decision~"

"Is it Miss Qing Palace?" Makoto Kyushu guessed.

Each card divined by Miss Night Wandering should refer to a person or group related to herself. Her divination is always ambiguous, and in the clouds, Kyushu Cheng can't interpret it at all. However, regarding the card "Magician", it is reasonable to speculate that Kyushu Makoto refers to Eliza of the Qing Palace.

But what does "complex emotion" refer to? Does she recognize her friendship with herself, but she pretentiously wants to distance herself from herself?

Sure enough, divination is such a thing as hard to guess.

"The fourth one is.?" Night Tour Tianyin continued to turn over the fourth card, but suddenly looked startled.

On the card is a pattern of a man lifting his bag, which should be [Fool].

"Is it [Fool] again?" Kyushu Cheng was also pulled back into his thoughts, and stepped forward and asked curiously: "What does this mean?" ”

"No, your thread of fate tells me that this is not a fool." Night Tour Tianyin shook his head:

"This is an isomer of [the fool]. [Madman]. ”

"Madman?" Makoto Kyushu raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"That's right, this is a madman." Night You Tianyin's expression was solemn, and he couldn't help but gasp a few times:

"If you are wise and foolish, arrogant and frightened, you are about to touch the truth of [the world]!"

Ye You Tianyin said intermittently, and suddenly covered his head and lay on the table, looking like he had a splitting headache.

"Are you alright?!" Makoto Kyushu hurriedly went up to help her.

"Oh no, this fate is too dangerous. I spied too deep, and I was almost cursed by the thread of fate" Night Wandering Tianyin rested for a moment before he got up in disfigurement:

"I'm sorry, it seems like a fate that is important to you, but I can only decipher so many things."

"It's okay, I'll keep an eye on it." Kyushu Cheng was in a fog when he heard it, and he didn't want to embarrass her too much: "I don't know much about fortune-telling spells, but don't force yourself." ”

"Thank you for your concern." Night Tour Tianyin put away the tarot cards and asked, "Guest, are you interested in drinking a cup of coffee with me?" ”

"Aren't you setting up a stall?" Kyushu asked.

"Divination is just a hobby for me, and I'm a little dizzy right now, so I shouldn't be able to do it anymore today." Night Tour Tianyin covered his mouth lightly and smiled mysteriously:

"I'm more curious about where the guests have been during this time. If you don't mind, tell me about it, even if I put aside the identity of the fortune teller and guest, I'm very curious. ”

"Okay, then you have a treat~" Kyushu Makoto was also interested, so he nodded and agreed.

"It's so cunning, guest~" Yeyou Tianyin smiled and bent his eyes: "Let the soothsayer help you tell your fortune for free, and invite you to coffee." ”

"Just kidding, I'll ask you." Makoto Kyushu leaned over to help clean up the stall together:

"In exchange, please also tell me about the things that happened in Yinyangliao before."

"No problem~" Yeyou Tianyin leaned over to pick up the crystal ball, and pulled the tips of her hair behind her earlobes: "As a retired senior, I can also provide some useful advice to guests~"

"Uh-huh. She's right, the B-level exam is not something that can be passed without strength. In the coffee shop, Night You Tianyin took a sip of iced coffee, crossed his fingers with his hands, and tilted his head slightly:

"Memorizing the Encyclopedia of Spirit Species in full is just the basics, and you still have a lot of knowledge to pass the written part. Later practical exams are more complex and require flexible application of this knowledge. ”

That is to say. In my current situation, even if I get enough points, it is not enough to be promoted to the second division? Makoto Kyushu leaned forward and listened attentively.

"You defeated a C-level spirit species alone before you entered the Yin-Yang Liao, so you were directly included in the C-level, right?" Night Tour Tianyin groaned for a moment and preached:

"Most of the members, including the eldest lady of the Qing family, started from the apprentice level. There is a chasm between each level, and if you want to cross to the next level, you not only need to greatly improve your strength and equipment, but also need to accumulate a lot of experience, even if you are currently in the C level, the B level is still too dangerous for you. ”

"Hey, even you say that~" Kyushu Makoto slowly raised his glass and took a sip of warm coffee, also expressing his approval.

According to Yinyangliao's standards, the threat of a Class C youkai is about the same as that of a super serial murderer, and at best it will only cause small casualties. However, the B-class monster is a real "monster", such as the incompletely evolved Luo Bride that Kyushu Makoto met before can only be regarded as the weakest B-class monster, but it is already so strong that it cannot be measured by human standards, and it can easily cause large-scale casualties.

Compared to spirit species, there is a limit to the strength of humans, and powerful weapons and items cannot be easily obtained. Therefore, if you want to become a more advanced demon hunter, you can only focus on improving your knowledge and experience.

"The average time it takes for an "unincapacitated" to move from Class C to Class B is three to five years. Yeyou Tianyin stared at him and said with interest:

"If you want to get to the second grade as fast as possible, I recommend that you start preparing for the exam now. Your current psionic knowledge may only be at an apprenticeship level, and exam preparation is also a way for you to build knowledge and help you in your work. ”

"Study," Makoto Kyushu laughed helplessly. Obviously, I have graduated from college in my last life, but I have to start again from high school in this life, and even the work of a soul slayer is inseparable from reading and studying for exams.

"But don't worry~ My previous exam preparation materials are still there, I'll help you find them when I get home~" Yeyou Tianyin snapped his fingers with a muffled snap of his long fingers wearing dark gloves, and said with a smile:

"If I'm lucky, I might be able to recall the questions from that year's exam, and maybe I can help the guests."

"Is this really good?" Makoto Kyushu happily put down the coffee cup: "I asked you to help me for no reason." ”

"You're my important guest, and I'm also out of curiosity to see where you can go in the future." Night Tour Tianyin stretched out his hand to support his chin:

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect you to encounter so many things in Yokohama and Fukuoka, it seems that your summer trip is very exciting~"

"Since joining Yinyangliao, I feel that the whole world has changed." Thinking of his experience these days, Makoto Kyushu couldn't help but sigh:

"I never expected this world to be so dangerous, and I could bump into youkai when I went out."

"Of course, that's because the Yin Yang Liao and the police are trying their best to hide the fact of the existence of spirit species from the public." Night Tour Tianyin sighed:

"But even so, Yinyangliao is understaffed all year round, and there will still be many fish that slip through the net. I have also read the relevant investigation files, if it weren't for the strength of the guest, I'm afraid."

"I'm afraid that Sister Zhenzi and I will unfortunately die, and then the police will lie to the outside world that this is an ordinary serial murder case, right?" Kyushu said solemnly.

"That's right, but it's also a helpless move." Night Tour Tianyin pinched his arm and sighed sadly:

"Once the people know about the existence of spirit species, not to mention anything else, the cult forces in this country, which are almost out of control, will become even more rampant~"

"I understand that this is also a kind of protection for the weak." Makoto Kyushu looked at the sunset outside the window and didn't plan to continue talking about this heavy topic:

"Speaking of which, I've told so much of my story, and I've invited you to drink coffee, it's time for you to tell me about you, right?"

"Oh~ For example?" Night Tour Tianyin took another sip of iced coffee with a straw.

"What the hell happened to your hand?" Makoto Kyushu asked, "Was it injured by a youkai?" ”

"Curiosity is really strong~" Night Tour Tianyin put down the coffee cup and gently took off a glove.

The black cloth lifted like a curtain, and inside was a delicate puppet-like palm, all connected by balls at the joints, but the material was glossy metal, and strange coats of arms were carved on it.

"Both of my hands were eaten by spirit species during a mission." Night Tour Tianyin's face was still very calm, but his tone was inexplicably cold:

"My prosthetic limb is powered by spiritual power, and I have to consume most of the spiritual power in my body just to maintain my daily life, and I can't be a spirit master anymore."

As if afraid of being seen by outsiders, Yeyou Tianyin quickly put on her gloves and re-revealed her previous smile:

"As my most important guest, this is an exception to satisfy your curiosity. But please don't spread the word about me, I'm retired after all. ”

"That's nature." Kyushu Makoto nodded seriously: "I will never talk nonsense to outsiders." ”

"That's good~ It's not early, let's talk next time, guest~" Night Tour Tianyin slowly got up:

"If you need advice from my 'senior' at work, please feel free to contact me."

"You too, if you need my help, call me." Kyushu Makoto also stood up:

"Although the process of getting to know each other was a bit tortuous, we are friends now, and we should help each other."

"Friend~?" Yeyou Tianyin suddenly covered his mouth and chuckled: "You just wanted to see my hand, in fact, to make sure I need help?" ”

"You can see it." Kyushu Makoto didn't deny it, and said with a slight smile: "Helping people I can help as much as I can, this should be my interest." ”

"With such thoughts, that's why your fate will be so special~" Night Tour Tianyin also narrowed his crescent-like eyes:

"But a boy like you who makes his own way and becomes a "friend" with the opposite sex will make girls very troubled~"

"Huh? What do you mean? Makoto Kyushu was stunned, as if he didn't understand her words.

"Just kidding, please don't take it to heart~" Night Tour Tianyin chuckled like a wind chime:

"I'd love to be your friend, guest."
