Just as Takagi Akira and his group were watching the people from the Mingjing Shisui Ryu leave, Yae Shinko walked straight up to Takagi Akira and his group, looking back and forth between Takagi Akira and Ying.

When Ying and Takagi Akira were feeling a little nervous because of being stared at, Yae Shinko slowly spoke.

"My hunch was right..."

As Yae Shinko spoke, his originally wandering gaze focused on Ying.

"The wind from a foreign land brings new variables and new vitality to this sea area..."

"You guys came to this island at the perfect time, but it's a pity that we met a little too early."

After saying this, Yae Shinko turned around and left a sentence, "Work hard, little ones, in order to live up to my expectations." He no longer looked at Gao Muming and others who were a little confused by his words, and walked straight into the temple.

"It seems that Lord Yamaguchi is very interested in you."

Takagi Akira, whose attention was drawn back by Paimon's words, nodded.

"Indeed, this is good news for Ying. The more ways we have to meet General Raiden, the better. If the shrine administrator is unable to get a job, we can rely on the interest of the Yae priest in us and use the relationship with Narugami Taisha."

"..."

Ying was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly as if she had made some decision.

"The three tasks have been completed. Let's go to the magistrate first and inform Kamisato Ayaka of the situation."

After saying that, Ying took the lead in leaving the Narugami Taisha Shrine and walked towards the shrine's magistrate's office at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing Ying walking so decisively, Gao Muming hesitated slightly and did not follow immediately.

He ran to a place selling amulets nearby and bought three amulets - two for bonding and one for luck. Then, Takagi Akira quickly caught up with Ying who had already arrived at the mountain path and wanted to send Meng.

"Huh, I finally caught up with you. Ying, you were walking too fast."

Hearing what Gao Muming said, Paimon showed a surprised expression.

"Hey? Didn't you catch up just now? I thought you were following us."

Hearing Paimon's question, Gao Muming smiled.

"I just went to do some work."

"work?"

"I asked for an amulet for each of us."

As Takagi Akira said this, he handed the lucky amulet to Paimon and the bond amulet to Ying.

After seeing Ying take the amulet and not put it into the space of God's Eye but wear it close to his body, the smile on Takagi Akira's face became even more intense.

"Ying, have you made your decision?"

Hearing what Gao Muming said, Ying nodded.

"That's right. I decided to agree to Kamisato Ayaka's request and help her resist the Eye Hunting Order."

"As expected, it's because you feel the same pain when you see ordinary God's Eye holders helplessly having their important things taken away by God, so you want to lend a hand."

Hearing Takagi Akira analyzing his motives for deciding to help Kamisato Ayaka in a very confident tone, Ying Chen did not refute out loud but just nodded silently.

After meeting Kamisato Ayaka in person at Kamisato House and agreeing to help her fight against the Eye Hunting Order, Kamisato Ayaka brought Ying and her group to the Mokuro Teahouse in Inazuma Castle again.

After Thomas walked out of the room to keep watch, Paimon spoke with some confusion.

"Is the Mulou Teahouse a special place? To plot such a big thing as the Eye Hunting Order, they have to come here specially. They can obviously discuss it directly at Kamisato's house."

"This is the fiefdom granted to the shrine magistrate by the general. Compared to the crowded and crowded shrine magistrate, this place managed by the Kamisato family and not even the Tenryo magistrate has the right to enter without my and my brother's permission is more suitable for confidential talks."

Kamisato Ayaka continued to explain.

"Coming here is a helpless act. Resisting the Eye Hunting Order is tantamount to rebelling against God. All actions must be carried out in secret. As travelers, you have been frequently joining the society in the past few days, and have been noticed by those with ulterior motives."

Hearing what Kamisato Ayaka said, Ying asked back with some confusion.

"Being noticed by someone with ulterior motives?"

Hearing Ying's question, Kamisato Ayaka nodded with a heavy expression.

"That's right. As soon as the general issued the eye hunting order, I tried to write a letter to ask the general to revoke his order. However, our proposals were directly rejected by the other two of the three magistrates during the deliberation of the castle tower: the Tenryo magistrate and the Kanjo magistrate."

Hearing what Kamisato Ayaka said, Ying spoke out with some curiosity.

"Can't we mobilize the people to sign a petition together? If the people sign it together, it should be presented to the general, right?"

Hearing what Ying said, Kamisato Ayaka shook her head.

"I'm sorry, the method you mentioned is simply impossible to implement. For the vast majority of the people in the Eye Hunting Order, it is just a matter of indifference. What's worse, some people who don't have the Eye of God are very supportive of the implementation of the Eye Hunting Order out of jealousy towards the holders of the Eye of God."

Having said this, Kamisato Ayaka smiled bitterly and continued her story.

"In order to reduce the losses caused by the Eye Hunting Order to Inazuma, I can only act in secret and hide as many God's Eye holders as possible or forge fake God's Eyes to deceive the soldiers who are collecting God's Eyes as an emergency measure."

"Because of the political differences and our secret interference, the seizure of the Eye of God was not very smooth. We who advocated the abolition of the Eye Hunting Order have been put on the suspect list of the Tenryo Bugyo, but because there is no definite evidence, the Tenryo Bugyo has not taken any extreme actions against us."

Hearing this, Gao Muming, who was sitting next to him, asked.

"So you don't know how to stop the Eye Hunting Order, right? I heard that Lord Yae of Narugami Taisha has a close relationship with General Raiden. Have you tried to ask General Raiden to abolish the Eye Hunting Order through Lord Yae's relationship?"

"I have tried it before. For this reason, I went to Narugami Taisha to ask for an audience with Lord Yae. Lord Yae responded that General Raiden is too stubborn to listen to advice. If we want to make General Raiden change his mind, we must wait for the right time."

Recalling what Yae Shinko said when he first met her, Ying lowered her head and muttered silently in her heart.

"Timing?"

Just as Ying was thinking, Kamisato Ayaka spoke somewhat awkwardly.

"Um, Ying, Takagi Akira, I'm sorry, but can I ask you to do something dangerous?"

Hearing what Kamisato Ayaka said, Takagi Akira chuckled.

"Just tell me straight, what could be more dangerous in Inazuma than rebelling against the gods and fighting the Eye Hunting Order?"

"Master Zhengsheng, the craftsman who has been helping us make fake Eyes of God, was captured and imprisoned by the Tenryo Bugyo a few days ago."

"I want to go to the prison to rescue people, but I can't go because of my identity. If my identity as a member of the Society Bugyo is accidentally exposed, the Tenryo Bugyo will have a reason to search the Society Bugyo's place, and all the efforts I have made before will be in vain."

"So can I ask you to do this?"

Takagi Akira agreed to Kamisato Ayaka's request immediately.

"Leave this matter to me. I'm already wanted in Inazuma anyway, so I don't care if I have one more crime on my hands."
