Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 108 New Missions
After breakfast, she came to the living room. Qiu Xue didn't read a book on the sofa as usual.

With a log fire blazing in the fireplace, she sat by the living room window, dressed in homey blue and white casual clothes, playing the violin gracefully and melodiously.

Qiuyue is cleaning the living room. Although everything is clean, in her words, it is a matter of habit.

"Brother, good morning." Qiu Xue said in a low voice.

"Good morning, Qiu Xue."

"Did you rest well last night?" It seemed that Qiu Xue was in a particularly good mood today.

"It's good, but I fell and scratched my face." Naturally, Arakawa Wang would not give up the opportunity to speak with Qiuyue.

"I've seen it. It's not a serious injury. Besides, Qiuyue has already given you medicine, so it won't leave any scars."

Arakawa stared blankly, didn't Qiu Xue apply the medicine to himself?He looked at Qiuyue.

Qiuyue shook her head, to the effect that she should not believe Miss's nonsense.

At the same time, she was also a little puzzled, it was obviously the young lady who gave Arakawa-kun the medicine, why did she say it was herself?
The melody of the violin echoed in the living room, Nozomi Arakawa was immersed in the beautiful melody, a little drowsy.

It is always easy to fall asleep on dark rainy days, and the noisy sound of rain is a good partner for sleeping.

Suddenly there was a thunder in the sky, and Arakawa Wang woke up from his drowsy state. He looked out of the window, and a branch-shaped lightning was striking the top of Tokyo Tower.

"The weather in the past two days is really not very good..." He muttered, feeling a little dull in his heart.

"It's supposed to be a climate issue."

At the end of the song, Qiuxue put down the violin, and Qiuyue went to put the violin into a box with a wink.

"The school told me to have a day off at home today, and I also told my servant to take a day off today. Brother, if you're bored, you can go to the library to read books."

"Are there any manga?" Nozomi Arakawa asked.

"Comics?" Qiu Xue was taken aback. "I don't read comics very much. I read fairy tale books when I was young. There are illustrations on them. I don't know if they count as comics."

"Really, what a pity..."

Arakawa looked out the window, such a heavy rain, it is a good weather to stay at home.It's a pity that nothing can make him spend this boring time happily.

Qiu Xue secretly observed Nozomi Arakawa's expression, and after a while she asked, "...What are manga?"

"Manga are just pictures, just like novels, except that the characters and scenes are expressed through pictures." Nozomi Arakawa patiently explained, "However, there are also different types of manga, such as shonen manga and girl manga."

"Girl manga?" Qiu Xue became a little interested.

"As the name suggests, it should be a manga aimed at women, right?" Nozomi Arakawa scratched his head, "I haven't read shojo manga, so I don't know much about it."

"I know, Mr. Arakawa likes to watch shonen manga." Qiu Ye walked into the living room at this time, "Recently, Arakawa-kun is watching "The Bandit King", right?"

Suddenly the phone rang, Qiu Xue glanced at the screen from his pocket, and turned off the phone.

"Aren't you going to answer the phone?" Nozomi Arakawa asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a text message from the student union." Qiu Xue said quietly, "Qiu Ye really understands my brother..."

"Where is it?" Qiu Ye stuck out her tongue mischievously, "I just accidentally saw it when I was cleaning the desk, because it was spread out on the table, so I couldn't help but glanced at it, the story is very interesting, Miss also tried How about taking a look at comics, if you keep reading those old-fashioned books, people will become old-fashioned too?"

"You don't need to teach me a lesson." Qiu Xue, who was said to be rigid, was a little embarrassed and put her arms around her arms.

"Oh, I'm sorry, the little one is just a mere maid!" Although she said so, Qiu Ye's smile did not diminish, and then she looked at Arakawa, "I cleaned the library, it seems that there are special books in it. Class cabinets, go there and look for maybe you can find comics.”

"Really?" Arakawa looked up, "It's a great help, I happen to have read almost all the manga on hand."

Watching Nozomi Arakawa walk out of the living room, Qiu Ye winked playfully at Qiu Xue, like a pet that helped its owner to claim credit for it.

"It's really yours." Qiu Xue gave her an annoyed look, then smiled.

... * ...

Before going to the library, Arakawa looked back to the room.

He went into the bathroom, soaked the express suit in the plastic bag in hot water, and rubbed it with soap.

There was still a little blood stain on the clothes, which had seeped into the fibers of the clothes. If it wasn't cleaned well, the dark blood stains would be particularly conspicuous on the courier clothes.

He has never done much housework, so he is not very proficient in washing clothes, but at least he can still clean them.

Nozomi Arakawa left it to dry in the bathroom, and the courier clothes dripped down.

Walking out of the bathroom, he picked up his phone and turned it on, wanting to check the battery status.

The phone's screen was on, and it was nearly 70.00% charged. At the same time, the call history at the bottom caught his attention.

[Reminder: You have missed two calls. 】

"Who could it be?" Arakawa Wang opened the call log curiously.

——Ebina Yuya.

Arakawa Wang didn't hesitate, and immediately called back.

"Arakawa-kun!" A surprised voice sounded from the opposite side.

"What's the matter with calling me?" Arakawa asked straight to the point.

"There's a new job." Ebina said, "Are you watching TV?"

"No, I don't have a TV at home."

"Eh?" Ebina was a little surprised.

In this era, there are still people who don’t have a TV at home, can’t they?
But she didn't think too much about it: "You can see from the news that there was a murder case in Tokyo last night."

"If I'm not mistaken, it's related to demons?" Nozomi Arakawa frowned.

"Not sure...so I would like to ask you to investigate." Ebina said.

"Ok."

Nozomi Arakawa agreed, and after confirming that there was nothing else to do, hung up the phone.

He immediately checked the latest news on his mobile phone, and sure enough, he found the case on the top of the hot search list.

It is said that in a telephone booth on a street, a man died tragically in it. His head disappeared, his blood was sucked dry, and his two bare legs were exposed, washed white by the heavy rain, and his skin was wrinkled.

There are also one or two pictures below. The crime scene has been typed, and only a few police cars can be seen parked nearby in the heavy rain. A yellow cordon has been pulled up around the crime scene. Umbrellas are blown over...

"Who can take this picture, isn't this snapshot amazing?" Arakawa Wang frowned.

Below the page are thousands of comments.

"Wow, can't it be a vampire?"

"There are vampires in Tokyo!"

"Is another urban legend about to be added?"

"I've seen a vampire! He can fly! Jump down from a tall building! With a flick of his hands, he becomes wings..."

"Don't spread rumors upstairs, there may be a perverted murderer deliberately causing panic like this, we have to believe in science!"

Nozomi Arakawa felt a little heavy.

Another vampire?No wonder Ebina was not sure.

Demons, vampires...

God knows what will pop up later.
