Reborn Tokyo Extradition

Chapter 216 Is it Coming?
At [-]:[-] in the evening, except for some villagers who stayed at home to take care of sick relatives, everyone else walked to the west of the village.

Last year today, this should have been a special time, it was the beginning of the annual winter festival held in the village.

Every year, girls would wear floral kimonos and walk with their sweethearts around the stalls in the village. Adults would walk through the crowd holding their children, and some shy young people would also choose Confess your love when the fireworks are scattered in the sky.

But now, on this lively day, no one can get up happily, and there is a nameless fear in the whole village.

Even comparing tonight with last year's today, all I can feel is endless sadness.

"I'm leaving, remember, no matter what happens outside, no matter how loud the noise outside, don't come out unless I call you in person, understand? Haruki?"

In the cellar, Ichijo Sakaki and Echizen Haruki have already moved the entire Changzhou family in.

The cellar in Sandalwood Village is ventilated, not only for wine storage, but also as a small family shelter to prevent natural disasters.

Similarly, Ichijo Sakaki bought almost all the food and drinking water from a convenience store in the village, and threw them all in the cellar for Haruki Echizen, along with the large amount of necessary medicines prescribed by Kazuya Miyahara to the Changzhou family.

"Sakaki, I'm still a little nervous."

"It's normal to panic, but it doesn't matter, everything will be fine... don't plant the flag..."

Taking a deep breath, Ichisakaki climbed the stairs to leave the cellar.

"Sakaki!"

Just when Yiyi Sakaki was about to close the cellar and was about to leave, Haruki Echizen threw a piece of bread on it:
"Come back alive, or your girlfriends will kill me."

After receiving the bread, Yiyi Sakaki smiled and slowly closed the mouth of the cellar.

"Teacher, are you going out?"

At the door of a house near Tanxiang Village Middle School, a woman in a black coat clasped her hands on her chest as if praying, worrying about the young teacher in a black suit.

"Well, there have been too many happenings in the village recently. I should also attend the ceremony held in the village today." The young teacher gently touched the top of the girl's head and said with a smile, "Lock the door at home and don't let others in. It will be late today, don't wait for me to come back."

"No, I will wait for the teacher to come back, but I will wait no matter how late."

The girl took small steps forward and looked at him seriously.

Looking at the girl's serious eyes, the young teacher's eyes were a little stunned. He wrapped the scarf around the girl's neck again, and the man smiled softly: "Okay, then the teacher will come back as soon as possible."

"Well! I'll make supper for the teacher!"

The girl's eyes shone with joy.

It wasn't until the young man disappeared into the night that the girl reluctantly looked away and returned home, looking forward to the teacher's voice "I'm back" after the door opened.

"Qiu, if you accept the third blood-sucking today, and it's from me, the possibility of you becoming a ghoul will be even higher."

In the temple of Sandalwood Village, a little girl in a purple dress was sitting on the wooden platform of the temple with a book in her arms, her calves in white thermal stockings turned up and down.

"Not today, the village needs to hold rituals."

"Fashi... How pitiful are those who haven't transformed into ghouls." With her chin propped up, the little girl quietly looked at Xia Yeqiu with eyes like eyes, "Obviously everyone can become partners."

"Xiao Yue, there is something I want to tell you."

"I know what Qiu you want to say, but I may not agree."

"Even so, I want to discuss it with you."

"Then Qiu wants to talk now?"

Shimono Qiu shook his head: "The ceremony is about to start, let's talk about it when we come back."

"Well, let's wait until you come back, Qiu, you should come back soon."

Shimono Qiu nodded, and left the room under the urging of the monk outside the door
"Doctor Miyahara, are you going to attend the ceremony too?"

Outside Miyahara Hospital, when Kazuya Miyahara threw a sleeping bag that had waited until it was bulging to size in the back seat of the car and just closed the door, a young female nurse walked up to her with her workbook and asked.

"Well, yes, there is one thing I want to inform the villagers, and this happens to be an opportunity."

Miyahara Kazuya said calmly, the same as his usual calmness.

"That's it"

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"No. It's just a pity. I made an appointment to go to the festival with Sister Caoye a month ago. I didn't expect that so many things happened in the village recently, and Sister Caoye also left the village."

The nurse was a little disappointed, but she quickly raised her head and looked at Kazuya Miyahara lively.

"Doctor Miyahara, do you know when Miss Grass Leaves will come back?"

Looking at the expectant eyes of the young nurse, Miyahara Kazuya's eyeballs shook, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly:
"Leaves of Grass she's not coming back."

One after another, the villagers of Tanxiang Village came to the open space on the west side that was originally used to watch fireworks and visit various stalls.

At the front of the open space, a platform has been built, and some items used for performing rituals are also placed on the platform.

Under the stage were villagers who were still healthy in black and white formal clothes. Similarly, Ichisakaki, who deliberately changed into black and white clothes, was also in the audience.

Sensing the gaze not far away, Ichijo Sakaki looked over, and happened to meet Shangkouzi and Saitoki.

Regarding Ichijo Sakaki's safety and well-being, they obviously didn't understand very much, and their eyes were full of doubts. Similarly, when they saw the catchy characters and Saitoki, Onikiri wrapped in a white cloth had quietly appeared in Ichijo Sakaki's palm .

Is there anything more ironic than a ghoul coming to attend a ceremony?
Shangkouzi and Saitoki did not act rashly. Similarly, it is not easy for a Sakaki to walk over and hack them to death now.

Nearly eight o’clock in the evening, the ceremony in Tanxiang Village officially began. According to the customs of Tanxiang Village, the people of the temple in Tanxiang Village danced the “Send-Dance Dance” on the stage. Sitting on the stage, the sound of chanting sutras slowly spread across the open space and the entire mountain forest.
Under the stage, all the villagers bowed their heads in silent tribute to their relatives, and the faint crying sound slowly swayed among the crowd.

"Are you coming?"

Raising his head, a sakaki exhaled hot air, rubbed his hands, looked at the deep night sky, there seemed to be not so many stars today
The sound of chanting still echoed, and all the villagers still mourned silently for their deceased relatives.

And in this originally solemn environment, a car honking broke everything.
