Keisuke Aoi and Shiraishi left the hotel under the same umbrella. Both of them were only wearing the yukata provided by the hotel. If Keisuke Aoi hadn't blocked the view of the front desk, they probably wouldn't have been allowed to leave.
Shiraishi wore clog-style slippers on his feet, and his toes moved playfully when they were soaked in the rain.
Qing Keisuke reached out and stroked her head, steaming her wet hair.
"Where are we going?"
"Go find yuki, it seems to have hit something."
"Oh~"
Upon hearing this, Shiraishi suddenly became full of energy.
Walking in Yuzawa on a rainy night, there were no pedestrians on the road, and there were basically only izakaya and other shops open on the streets. Compared to Tokyo, this place was like a small village without nightlife.
The stagnant water reflected the neon lights lonely.
Shiraishi quietly leaned towards Aoi Keisuke, wanting to be close to him.
Qing Keisuke glanced down at her, then stretched out his remaining hand to hug Shiraishi.
"Cold?"
"Ah...well, a little bit."
On a midsummer night, the 26-year-old woman blushed because she had lied.
They walked along the sidewalk until they reached a small bridge. The stream under the bridge had become turbid due to rainfall, and the water level had also risen a lot.
"Yuki is here?"
"no."
Qing Keisuke used his spirituality to extract a water ball from the stream, and carefully felt the spirituality in it that attracted him here.
"You can open your eyes and try to observe the spirituality in the water." He guided Shiraishi beside him: "There is Yuki's inside, and there is also another strange spirituality, and the energy level is very high."
"oh……"
Shiraishi nodded in understanding, silently recited the spell he set, and activated his talent.
As Aoi Keisuke said, the stream flowing down from the upstream does carry the spirituality of the two. Qing Keisuke originally planned to use the spirituality to trace what happened between the two, but there seemed to be some kind of power in the rain that stopped him.
Peeping.
"interesting."
Qing Keisuke casually scattered the water balloons.
"Hey, I haven't seen it clearly yet!"
"Isn't it the same when you look into the stream?"
"Ah...? Oh!"
Shiraishi Chizuru blushed and quickly walked around to the other side of Aoi Keisuke, pretending to look at the stream carefully.
"Honestly, why did you and Hoshino come to Yuzawa?"
"Well...she wants to investigate a mysterious incident, but for what purpose, I don't know." 33
"No wonder I'm looking for you~"
"What's your tone?"
"Who knows~?" Chizuru Shiraishi smiled playfully and poked Qing Keisuke's waist with his finger. It felt good, so he poked it a few more times.
In the end, Qing Keisuke caught him and held him tight.
They continued to explore upstream along the river. During this period, neither of them spoke anymore, enjoying the sound of rain hitting the umbrella.
——It seems good if we can keep going like this.
Being held by Qing Keisuke's generous and warm hands, you don't have to worry about the rain outside the umbrella. You can faintly smell the shower gel on Qing Keisuke's body.
That's the shower gel provided in the hotel's bathhouse, which means they smell the same now.
Chizuru Shiraishi lowered his head and thought like this, and couldn't help but feel a little jumpy in his steps.
She hummed an old song from the Showa era, without singing specific lyrics, but just by listening to the melody, she knew it was a classic Showa song.
But she suddenly thought, shouldn't it be more appropriate to sing songs that young people like at this time?
"Why don't you sing?" Qing Keisuke turned to ask her.
"Hmph~"
Bai Shi pouted and just shook his head without answering.
Qing Keisuke didn't care and asked her what she could see with her eyes now.
"Hmm...I saw some fuzzy lines, still glowing."
"These are thin spirits. The light may be because the owner of the spirit has passed here before, or it may be that the spirit has diverged and drifted here.
In rarer cases, it may be formations and spells carefully set up by someone, so be careful when you see them."
Qing Keisuke explained it very carefully to Shiraishi this time, and he continued: "Generally speaking, the spirituality floating in the air is in an 'invisible' state to you, and the brightness of the light can be understood as the level of spirituality.
The higher your spirituality, the greater the pressure it will put on you. When you feel tingling, you should appropriately weaken the perception of your wisdom eye..."
Shiraishi listened attentively at first, but after thinking about it, she immediately felt that Aoi Keisuke had really treated her badly before!
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Qing Keisuke had treated her so badly before, but she was still so obsessed...
"Huh? What's wrong with you?"
Qing Keisuke glanced at her and said disgustedly: "Don't you understand?"
"no!"
Shiraishi seems to be starting to become a little difficult to understand.
After walking for a while, Qing Keisuke suddenly stopped, let go of Shiraishi's hand, and asked her to turn off her eyes immediately.
Baishi understood the situation and knew something was going on. He immediately recited the incantation silently and closed his eyes.
As soon as she put away her magical power, she saw a very strange figure walking towards her from the opposite street corner.
Qing Keisuke walked up to her and protected her behind him.
"This is……?"
"Not sure."
Compared with the evil spirits she had encountered in the past, the spirituality of the figure in front of her was not gloomy and gloomy. On the contrary, her spirituality was so pure that even Qing Keisuke was shocked and alert.
The person walking towards me was very short and slender, only about one meter tall.
Her small body held a very large white umbrella, and the umbrella covered her face and neck, emitting a faint light.
Further down, there is a moon-white hunting suit.
The white and tender feet stepped naked in the muddy water, not stained by any dirt.
Even though he had closed his eyes, Chizuru Shiraishi still felt sore in his eyes when he saw her.
Qing Keisuke felt as if he saw another moon on the ground!
This is really amazing...
He held an umbrella and walked forward. After a while, a black umbrella and a white umbrella lightly touched each other on the street.
The atmosphere suddenly became chilly. Shiraishi felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave. She was dizzy and almost fainted. It was not until Qing Keisuke patted her on the head that she recovered.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Meow~"
"Huh?"
Under the white umbrella, something pushed against the umbrella.
Then the big umbrella tilted back, revealing an ignorant, pure, and very childish face.
——This is a little girl who looks to be only about ten years old.
Her hair was whiter than the moonlight, and her face was bloodless, but it was not weak and pale, but more transparent.
On the girl's small shoulder, squatting was a cat with pure black fur and white toes. It was the kitten Keisuke Sei had kept for many days.
Being blocked by Aoi Keisuke, the girl's big and lively eyes showed doubts. She looked at the cat on her shoulder for a while, and then stared at Keisuke Aoi's face.
"Meow~" Yuki suddenly jumped on Qing Keisuke's body and rubbed her head back and forth happily.
"Ah...so you are the owner of the cat?"
The girl showed a sweet but regretful smile: "That's great, it likes you very much."
The rain was still pouring down, and the sound of rain all over Yuzawa seemed to be concentrated here. Along with the girl's soft voice, it sounded like thunder in Qing Keisuke's ears.
Qing Keisuke frowned and stroked the soft fur of yuki in his arms, unsure of what surprise this pet had brought to him.
"My name is Qing Keisuke, what's yours?"
"Me? My name?"
The girl lowered her head and thought for a moment. Because of this action, the white umbrella completely covered her again. At this moment, she seemed to disappear directly in front of the two people.
Qing Keisuke immediately stretched out his hand to grab the edge of the umbrella, but with just this contact, his knees bent and he was almost crushed by the force coming from the umbrella.
"My name is 'Weeping Son'."
The girl raised her head again, answering him shyly and happily.
Qing Keisuke's expression was a little solemn. He nodded and put Yuki on Weizi's shoulder again, acting as a medium to leave Weizi behind.
Weizi's eyes are very bright, but they are full of innocence and innocence, looking like they don't know much about the world.
She stared closely at Qing Keisuke's face, and after a long time she grinned again.
"Do you want to give me the cat?"
"No, I just put it at your place first."
"All right."
Weizi didn't feel depressed after hearing this. Instead, he happily teased yuki and wanted to play games with it.
Shiraishi tugged at the corner of Qing Keisuke's clothes and asked him what was going on with his eyes.
To be honest... although Weizi looks innocent, she is actually more scared than facing those ugly monsters!
This is the natural fear and surrender that occurs when living things face great things.
If there is no spiritual enlightenment in Qingguijie, it will also be affected by the spirit of evil spirits.
And what Shiraishi is facing now is an existence that is thousands of times more powerful than evil spirits.
Qing Keisuke then tapped the center of her eyebrows again to remove the hurt caused by looking directly at the weeping child and to calm her down.
He considered his words, and with Yuki as the hub of communication, Aoi Keisuke didn't want to take action directly.
What is certain is that the person in front of me is definitely not a living person, but it is not an evil spirit either.
Rather, the energy in this little girl's body is more like the aura that Aoi Keisuke once felt in Kamaba Yui's body.
That is - gods.
But if we want to directly confirm that Weiko is a god walking on earth, Qing Keisuke also holds a negative view.
In his opinion, Weizi is at most on the same level as Hanako No.1.
Of course, he was the only one who could comment so lightly and sharply on Hanako No. 1.
Looking at Weizi's innocent face, Qing Keisuke's expression changed slightly and he decided to test it out first.
"Weeping son."
"Um?"
But before he could speak, Qingzi floated up and came close to Qing Keisuke. Transparent tears shed from her eyes unconsciously. She reached out and touched the side of Qing Keisuke's face. Her little hands were cold to the bone. She used the tone of a mother comforting her child.
said:
"Are you homeless too? Don't cry."
Qing Keisuke looked into her eyes, shocked, and then suddenly shed tears for some unknown reason.
Uncontrollably, I shed tears for the first time.
"Be good, don't cry...sooner or later you will find a home."
"One day, I will find a home."
Weeping son murmured to himself, and the tears she shed turned into light-colored tear stains and stayed on her fair face.
"Meow~"
Yuki leaned next to Keiko's head and licked away the tears on her side with her tongue. Keiko's words seemed to be comforting Keisuke Qing, but more like she was comforting herself.
A sadness suddenly penetrated Qing Keisuke's heart. He suddenly understood what it was and why it was born with such a harmless image of humans and animals.
So much so that even yuki is not afraid of her and just wants to get close to her.
"Weizi, why are you here?" he asked.
"Because it's raining..."
Weeping son slowly fell back to the ground, hugged the big white umbrella in his arms tightly, then stepped on the rainwater on the asphalt road with his feet and replied: "Someone is crying, but I don't know who it is.
I want to go home, but I don't know where home is.
I have even forgotten who I am.
I only remember my name, which is ‘Qizi’.”
The girl was talking to herself in confusion, looking like an abandoned puppy.
But she didn't cry for herself. When she talked about herself, her expression became hollow, as if she had lost all life.
A delicate and fair face turned into a numb doll.
Shiraishi's eyes also filled with tears. He wanted to hug the poor child, but he didn't dare to step forward.
Qing Keisuke was silent for a while, and based on the nature of Weiqi's power, he already had a more in-depth guess.
But how to verify it is a difficult problem to solve.
Before Qing Keisuke could think of a way, Qiuzi suddenly said: "The rain will stop soon."
"What will happen if the rain stops?"
The line of rain falling from the sky immediately became intermittent as Weizi spoke, and the sound of rain gradually disappeared. The sound of a train passing by on the track was heard in the distance, and then gradually spread further away.
Qianzi did not immediately answer Qing Keisuke's question. She raised her little head and looked beyond the umbrella covering the sky to the sky where the dark clouds were disappearing.
She suddenly showed a pure smile, as if she saw the moonlight shining behind the clouds, the planes flying high in the sky, and the clear stars in the sky...
"Weeping son, it's time to go to bed."
Her body was suddenly shrouded in hazy light, but at the same time, the moon in Qing Keisuke's eyes was gradually disappearing.
Before disappearing, she hugged Yuki dearly and reluctantly handed the cat back to Keisuke Aoi.
Qing Keisuke wanted to grab the umbrella for her, but his fingers ran through the brilliance and couldn't grab anything.
"Goodbye, big brother, I hope to see you again."
"Meow!"
The extremely huge and pure spirituality disappeared in the thin line of rain in an instant, as if it had never existed.
"She... left?" Shiraishi asked uncertainly.
"Um."
Qing Keisuke was a little silent. Although the crying child disappeared, the sadness that remained in his heart still lingered for a long time.
This is an extremely rare experience for the Demon King.
Shiraishi walked up to him, carefully wiped the tears on his face with the sleeves of his yukata, and looked at him worriedly.
She put a hand on Qing Keisuke's heart and said softly: "Sometimes, I always feel that you are so mysterious that you are so far away from me."
But the heart under the chest was beating steadily and powerfully.
so true.
"The so-called mystery is just an appearance."
Qing Keisuke grabbed her wrist, then slowly moved up, pressing Shiraishi's fingers and palm.
"The real me is right in front of you."
Shiraishi hesitated to speak after hearing this. She wanted to ask Qing Keisuke if one day he would suddenly disappear like a weeping child.
But for some reason, she was afraid of the answer and would rather remain silent.
Some people died, but not completely...
