Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 111 Investigation
"Is this a joke?" The old monk was dumbfounded, "That guy would actually show up?"

"It's true." Wuyi Yizhi bowed, "Master Arakawa is now resting in Wuyi's mansion."

"I thought it was at the shrine..." The old monk was taken aback.

"A shrine is not a place to dine. As I said, a sumptuous meal and drink are prepared."

"Can I ask, how is that old guy doing now?" The old monk sighed, as if he had surrendered. Since all the old guys from the Arakawa family had come forward, he had to go there.

"This question may only be answered by you personally asking Arakawa-sama." Wu Yi Yizhi said softly.

"Okay, the old thing saved my life, so I'll go." The old monk stood up and patted his body, "However, the thunder and rainstorm continued, and although the gate of ghosts has not been fully opened, demons have poured into the world... ... We are old, and now we just want to have fun when we talk about slaying demons and demons, and we really have to rely on you young people to close the gate of hell."

"Then please follow me, just walk through a small path in the mountains, the car is waiting for us."

He looked at the torrential rain outside the window: "Wait a little longer, just a few minutes, the first rainstorm lasted for a day or two when the ghost gate opened last time, if you count the time, this time should be no exception, I I don't want to get myself wet."

As soon as the words fell, the torrential rain outside really began to diminish. Wu Yi Yizhi looked outside the temple in surprise. The raindrops as thick as fingers gradually turned into fine rain within a few minutes, and the hazy feeling between the sky and the earth began to dissipate. A rainbow appeared in the sky.

Wu Yi Yizhi was a little dazed. It turned out that these exorcists of the older generation had remembered that battle against demons all their lives, and they even remembered clearly the signs before the ghost gate opened.

The old monk looked at his watch: "It's past twelve o'clock, let's go."

……

There was a smell of meat from the kitchen.

He Mi stared at the phone: "Let's add some cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, onion, ginger and garlic...stir fry again...the shredded pork with green pepper is ready!"

He stared at a plate of shredded pork fried with green peppers in the pot, served in a wooden stacked bowl from the temple.

Although I felt a little guilty, it was to fill the old monk's stomach, and the lady from Wu Yi's family was there too, so I couldn't treat him badly.

"But take a closer look, the color of the shredded meat... the cooking skills of the monk are still very good."

He came out of the kitchen with the food in his hand: "It's time to eat... Hey, where are you?"

... * ...

"Arakawa-kun, it's lunch time."

Akizuki ran into Nomo Arakawa in the corridor of the stairs.

"Well, I know, I'm getting ready to go." Nozomi Arakawa had just finished warming up, and took a brief shower.

In the restaurant, Qiu Ye was wearing insulated gloves and holding a large porcelain bowl, the smell of meat was savory.

"Today's lunch is steamed pork, the Chinese cuisine I learned not long ago!"

Qiuyue's complexion didn't fluctuate. Anyway, for her, the things her sister made were not very good.

Nozomi Arakawa felt very happy, it's great to have such a capable cook at home, she changes her tricks every day to satisfy your appetite.

But he soon realized something was wrong.

"Where's Qiu Xue?" He asked.

"Miss?" Qiu Ye said, "Go out."

"Going out?" Arakawa Wang was taken aback, "Where can she go in such a heavy rain?"

"The rain has become smaller, Arakawa-kun." Qiuyue nodded, "It seems that there is a real estate contract in the company that needs to be signed by the lady."

"Have you eaten yet?" Nozomi Arakawa said suddenly.

Qiu Ye brought the meal over: "Huhu, we've already eaten, let's serve you and enjoy it slowly."

... * ...

Although the rain became lighter, there were still few people on the street.

It was only two days of torrential rain, which made the rainwater on the streets of Tokyo submerge ankles. If this rain continues, those who believe in Christianity will think that this is a catastrophe created by God for some reason, and they are ready to start creating a catastrophe in history. The second "Noah's Ark".

Asano and Mi stopped next to the telephone booth in the park wearing raincoats. He crossed the cordon set up by the surrounding police and came to the scene to investigate the situation.

The victim's body is no longer at the scene and should have been transported to the medical examiner for an autopsy.However, the fixed lines drawn by the police at the scene still remain. Because they are made of waterproof materials, the lines have not disappeared due to heavy rains, and the posture of the deceased when he was found is preserved.

But this is of no use to Asano and Mi. If the body is still at the scene, he can infer something from the wound, but the police obviously will not let the body wash away in the heavy rain all night.

So now we can only start with the surrounding environment.

However, Kazuya has no confidence. Even if there is something left at the scene, it is estimated that it will disappear with the heavy rain.

But you have to look for it. In many detective novels, the protagonist is patiently investigating and discovering some clues to solve the case.

"If it's a demon, there should be some clues left behind." He Mi walked into the phone booth, trying not to destroy the environment inside.

The phone booth occupies a very small area, and at most two people can only be squeezed in it, and if there are too many people, it will not fit.

At this moment, the phone booth was dripping with blood, and the blood almost covered the surrounding glass.

With such a huge amount of bleeding, it should be concluded that this is the first scene where the victim died.

Kazumi squatted down, ready to check what was on the ground.But his body paused, and his right hand slowly stretched into his arms...

"Let me guess, which little monk should it be?"

A familiar voice sounded, and Asano and Mi turned their heads in surprise: "Arakawa-kun? Why are you here!"

I saw Nozomi Arakawa holding a black umbrella: "Of course it's a mission. I also want to ask you, why are you here?"

He spotted Asano Kazuya from a long distance away. At that time, Kazuya was wearing a raincoat, and Nozo Arakawa didn't dare to act rashly.But when he took off his hat at the phone booth, Nozomi Arakawa knew it was Kazuya, the egg-like bald head left a deep impression on him.

"The little monk is also responsible for the investigation."

"Our mission...is the same?"

"Yes, yes, that should be the case."

"Why didn't Ebina tell me about this?" Arakawa Wang was taken aback.

"She didn't notify me either, but it's nothing surprising. If we are sent to the same task, then we will be partners." He Mi clasped his hands together as a greeting.

"So, what did you find?" Nozomi Arakawa asked.

"Not yet, the body was taken away by the police, and there was blood in the phone booth, which was frozen." Kazumi said, "Amitabha."

"Let's talk about saving the dead later. You can search carefully in the phone booth and the surrounding area. I'll take a look nearby." Arakawa Wang said.

"Okay." Asano and Mi squatted down, their eyes slowly scanned the phone booth, not letting go of any corner.
