A few days have passed since the three little ones sneaked into the three target stores.

In the past few days, except for the death of one person, everything else has been peaceful, nothing happened, and nothing special seemed to happen.

However, it was the dead man who showed the traces of ghosts!
The person who died was the proprietress of Kyogokuya among the three stores.

The cause of death was falling, falling from a high place, falling hard to the ground, and falling to death abruptly.

It seems that in order not to cause a commotion, Kyogoku House collected the body of their proprietress that day, and all the follow-up funeral work was done.

This also led to the fact that on the second day after the death of their proprietress, when Usui Tengen and Horiyue just got the news, it was too late to check the body of the proprietress.

Without the ability to view the body, there is no way to determine the specific cause of death of the proprietress.

There is no way to judge whether the proprietress was killed by a ghost.

Usui Tengen and Horiyue couldn't steal the corpse and snatch the coffin, that would be too rude.

Helpless, the two could only come to the place where the proprietress had an accident, that is, the road outside the Kyogoku House, and come here to check the scene.

After this inspection, some clues were discovered.

Usui Tengen and Horigaku looked at the surrounding environment and fell into deep thought.

Surrounded by two-story Japanese-style buildings.

Even if they climbed to the roof of the second floor, it was only the height of the third floor.

Jumping from the height of these three floors, it is very difficult for a person to be thrown to death all at once.

In this way, the proprietress of Kyogoku House should not have fallen from the second floor or the roof, but should have fallen to her death from a higher place.

but……

Usui Tengen and Horigake looked up in a tacit understanding.

The tallest buildings around are these two-story Japanese-style buildings, and there is no higher place.

Where could this proprietress fall from a higher place?
There is only one explanation, that is, there are ghosts.

Perhaps it was a ghost that killed the proprietress, or it was a ghost that threw the proprietress to a high place, causing the proprietress to fall from a higher place, and she was thrown to death all at once.

So here comes the question again, why was the proprietress killed by a ghost?
The experienced Yusui Tianyuan soon had a lot of guesses about it.

He had many guesses, and the most likely guess was that the proprietress of the Kyogoku house should have accidentally discovered the identity of the ghost.

In order to silence the ghost, the ghost killed the proprietress.

If this conjecture turns out to be true, there's one more problem.

Why didn't this ghost choose to eat the proprietress, but chose to throw her to death?
The answer to this question is hard to say, maybe this ghost likes to eat fresh meat, and doesn't like to eat old meat.

But no matter what the guess is, Yusui Tianyuan can judge that there are indeed ghosts in Yoshihara Flower Street.

Maybe this ghost is hiding in this Kyogokuya!

Thinking of this, Yu Sui Tianyuan became more and more worried.

He is mainly worried about his three wives.

His three wives have lost contact with him for a long time.

There's been no news for so long, it can't be...

Even if he was worried, Yu Sui Tianyuan inevitably had the worst plans and guesses in his heart. He had a hunch that he might meet a big guy in this battle!

Usui Tengen, who had various guesses, began to ask Horigake for his opinion.

Horigake fully affirmed Usui Tengen's guess, but he didn't express his own judgment.

When Usui Tengen asked Horigake, Horigake replied like this:
"You are in charge of this mission, you are the officer, you decide how to execute and operate the next mission, so you don't have to ask me.

My opinion or answer will affect you to some extent.

Leave me alone and do what you want. "

This is Horigake's original answer to Usui Tengen.

Disappointed that he didn't get any useful advice from Horigake, Yusui Tianyuan also took a reassurance pill.

What he was worried about was that during this mission, Horigake would restrain him to a certain extent.

No way, who made Horigake have a higher status than him?
Now, Hori Yue made it clear that he would not intervene, and let Yusui Tianyuan leave him alone, which is equivalent to giving Yusui Tianyuan full power, and Yusui Tianyuan can use it with confidence.

In this way, Usui Tengen and Horigake parted temporarily.

He is full of confidence to do his own thing, to do his own plan for the task.

And what about Horigake?

He seemed to be a normal person, wearing the attire of a slutty nobleman all day long, wandering around in Yoshiwara Flower Street, flirting with those geisha girls from time to time.

All in all it was fun.

But he never played with fire.

Does Horigake really not care about anything?

No, he just didn't want to talk to Yusui Tianyuan.

With reference to the plot of the original book, Horigake is of course very clear about this incident.

He also knew how the proprietress of this Jingji house died.

Of course it was killed by the fallen princess who was hiding in the Kyogoku house.

But he can't tell Yusui Tianyuan that he wants the plot to develop step by step, step by step, until the moment when Hori Yue intends to make a move!
not to mention……

If the plot of the original novel still develops, after Yu Ji killed the proprietress of Kyogoku House, Wu Mi came to Yoshiwara Flower Street, and Wu Mi came to see Yu Ji specially.

Even though he left immediately after seeing Luo Ji, he did come!
These things are not simple.

If Horiyake disrupts the plot at will, what will happen if he comes back without a fight?
With Horie Yue's current strength, he is indeed not afraid of Wu Mi, even if he faces Wu Mi, after a few rounds of fighting, he can retreat with his whole body.

But the problem here is Yoshiwara Flower Street.

There are so many tourists here, and the population density is so large, if a big war broke out here... the consequences would be unimaginable!
Not to mention fighting with Wu Mi, in the original book, Usui Tianyuan and San Xiaozhi fought with Fallen Girl and Saki Futaro, and the terrifying battle destroyed the entire Huajie.

In order to avoid greater casualties, Horigake had some trivial countermeasures.

In fact, there is nothing to say about this countermeasure, just report it to Yaozai.

On the second day after coming to Yoshiwara Flower Street, after confirming that there was a ghost here, Horitake used his own crow to report to Yoya at the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Squad, telling him the situation here.

In the letter, Horigake also suggested to Yaoya that if necessary, please ask the relevant government departments to evacuate the people in Yoshihara Hana Street in advance.

Of course, this is just a suggestion.

Horitake himself felt that this suggestion was unlikely.

Yoshiwara Flower Street is such a fun place, there are so many people here, how can you evacuate if you say evacuate, or evacuate if you say evacuate?

Horigake was in Kusatsu before, and faced with such a major event as a possible plague outbreak, after reporting it to the government department, the government did not close Kusatsu.

What's more, this time?
