Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 112 Visiting the Magician

Kazuya found a small clump of hair in the cracks on the ground.

Black, slender and long.

There is no doubt that this is human hair.

And it's a woman's hair.

"The victim is a man, why is there a woman's hair?" He Mi murmured.

He also read the news, the victim was a man with handsome hair, but definitely not such a long length.

At this time, Arakawa Motoya came over: "I found something near the bushes."

"What is it?" Kazuya asked.

"This." Nozomi Arakawa took out a red ribbon, "I found it under a tree, it fell next to the root of the tree, the upward side is still clean, it should have fallen recently."

"I have something here too." Kazumi showed the lock of long hair, "Human women's hair, look down."

Arakawa looked down, the glass was dirty, it was kicked.

"The stains on it haven't dried yet." Hemi said, "It should have happened last night. These hairs should have been ripped off when the victim was struggling. Look at the ends of these hairs, the roots are still there."

"In other words, it's unlikely that a demon did it?" Arakawa said.After all, the texture of the hair on the demon's body is not the same as that of human hair.

"Not necessarily, there are different types of monsters." He Mi said, "But monsters that can only suck blood... I really haven't heard of monsters."

"Is that a vampire?" Arakawa Wang said.

"Why did the murderer cut off the head of the victim?"

"Maybe I want to soak it in formalin for collection? Or as a ball." Arakawa Wang did not shy away from the dead.

He Mi was a little speechless: "There are too few clues, and there is no way to trace the murderer's whereabouts. This matter should be referred to the police or detectives."

"I suddenly thought of a question." Nozomi Arakawa said, "Why did the victim hide in the phone booth last night?"

"To avoid the rain?" Kazumi said.

"If you want to take shelter from the rain, you should find a good place, such as a restaurant or a hotel." Nozomi Arakawa embraced him.

"Unless...he is forced to be here."

"Or waiting for someone." Arakawa Wang smiled, "Let's go, follow me to a place."

... * ...

"Two Big Mac set meals at table 4."

"Okay, come right away."

Sitting with Mi in a fast food restaurant, French fries and ketchup are in front of him.

"I thought you were taking Xiao Monk somewhere, but it turned out to be a fast food restaurant."

"Eat first. How can you have the strength to work if you're not full?"

"Hasn't Arakawa-kun eaten lunch?" Kazuya asked.

"This... I ate it, but I didn't eat it well. After a few mouthfuls, I left the table. I suspect that girl Qiu Ye is trying to trick me..." Wang Arakawa couldn't help but sighed.Where is the scene of eating?To be honest, you don’t even need to hold chopsticks, you just need to open your mouth obediently like a baby bird and wait for the food to be delivered to your mouth.

If Qiuxue was at home, this would never happen, that girl Qiuye would definitely stand upright behind her.

"By the way, accompany me to the sports supermarket after dinner."

"Where are you going?" He Mi was taken aback.

Nozomi Arakawa stood up the racket bag: "This package seems to be a bit insufficient, I want to change it...don't you eat it?"

"Young monk has no appetite."

"Then watch the news." Nozomi Arakawa took a bite of the burger.

The TV in the fast food restaurant was showing a news about a murder in a phone booth.

According to the preliminary judgment, the police determined that it was a homicide. There were two sharp holes in the neck of the deceased. The murderer should have drained the blood of the deceased with something like a syringe from here, and cut off the head of the deceased with a sharp instrument.

"Hey, Ms. Clerk, can you turn off the TV or change the channel?" The surrounding customers began to be unhappy.No one wants to listen to this while eating, except Arakawa Nozomi and Ya.

"I'm very sorry, I'll change it now." The clerk immediately picked up the remote control, and the TV screen flickered, switching to the song channel.

"So, it should be done by a vampire." Kazumi said, "There really is a perverted vampire who likes to collect human heads."

"Probably, but it should be difficult to find the whereabouts of the vampires." Arakawa Wang said.

"No... I know a person who is good at using familiar magic and can help us find vampires."

"Who?"

"He is a magician, but if you want to ask him for help, you have to pay a price." He Mi looked cautious.

... * ...

Coming out of the sports supermarket, Nozomi Arakawa's expression was not very good.

It cost 8000 yen to buy a baseball bag, which is still relatively cheap!
However, it is long enough to accommodate the wedge pill, and it can also hold some other things in it, such as the wound medicine gourd.

In the end, Wedge Maru is just a sword. If it wasn’t for the small size of the badminton racket bag, he really didn’t want to change it, but if he wanted to hide the undead sword, he would need a bigger bag. Much longer than wedge balls.

"But I heard that magicians have weird personalities, are you really sure?" Nozomi Arakawa asked Kazuya.

"It's not right to say that. Magicians also have good personalities, and there are also eccentric ones. We can't generalize them." Hemi said, "The magician I know is a bit straightforward, and he is very unwilling to default on others, so I want his help. He must be made to owe us favors."

"That means we need to help him work, right?" Arakawa Wang said, "I don't care, but how did you know each other? A monk, a magician who hides his identity, how he thinks and violates the peace."

"He met when he brought his daughter to the temple to worship the Buddha. The magic power in his body triggered the enchantment mechanism of the temple. At that time, the little monk almost got into a fight with him." He Mi said, "It was Grandpa who stopped us."

"It seems that he is a very loving father." Arakawa Wang said, "He will bring his daughter to worship Buddha."

"Actually, he came to ask for help." Kazuya said, "Some kind of resentful spirit has haunted his daughter, and his magic can't get rid of the resentful spirit, so he came to ask for help."

"So, doesn't he owe you favors?" Arakawa Wang's eyes lit up, "It's easy to handle."

"Oh," He Mi sighed, "he paid off the favor the next day, gave us a large sum of money, and even had someone redecorate Grandpa's room. It is said that there are VR equipment, water beds, and the most Advanced 3D projectors, a lot of stuff I don't understand anyway."

The two turned a corner at the intersection and came to the entrance of a blue bar.

"It's here." Kazuya said.

"you sure?"

The combination of the bar and the magician is not in line with Nozomi Arakawa's imagination. He thought that the magician's home was the same as that of the alchemist in the Middle Ages, and it was like a chemical laboratory, with various test tubes, potions of various colors, and thick thick book...

"Well, quite sure."

Pushing open the glass door of the bar, the two entered the store, and the bar was very deserted.

"Minors are not welcome here." The bartender stood on the bar counter, looking at Nozomi and Kazuya Arakawa with great interest.
