Chapter 43 Monsters and Gods
This has long been speculated by Jingu, and Tamamo Mae would not be so kind as to help him get everything done.
But it doesn’t matter if you practice. The other party seems to have the ability to follow the trend. I wonder how it compares with myself?
"Why don't you change to a more suitable place? Is it right here?"
The shrine looked around, this was in a busy urban area with a large population, and casual activities would probably result in tens of thousands of casualties, not to mention that the opponent was obviously not a trash fish.
"No, no, you misunderstood. I am not a violent person." Iizunaru opened the curtains. Her office has a huge panoramic floor-to-ceiling window. Standing here, you can basically overlook the entire Tokyo.
The flow of people on the ground is like ants, and the scenery in the distance is extremely small. The weather is very good today, the sky is clear, and Mount Fuji in the distance is hidden in the clouds.
"I'm talking about speed, not speed. I don't like fighting."
Iizunaru reached out to push it. The floor-to-ceiling window was designed to be pushed open, and the wind flowed into the room, bringing fresh air.
"Look, Mount Fuji." Iizunaru pointed to Mount Fuji in the distance and turned around and said.
"The content of the competition is very simple. See who can retrieve the unmelted snow from Mount Fuji faster and use it to make a cup of tea. Whoever wins? How about it?"
Mount Fuji is at least hundreds of kilometers away from here, and at extremely high speeds, it is necessary to ensure that the snow does not melt. For some people, this is simply impossible.
But for Iizunamaru and Jingu, this may not be something impossible.
"No, it's too much trouble. It's a bit far."
Unexpectedly, Jingu rejected the proposal. Of course, the reason was not as simple as he said.
The real reason is that Yingzhou uses the retro method of ordering tea, and Jingu doesn’t know it at all. He can only simply make tea.
"Is it a bit far?" Iizunaru looked out the window thoughtfully.
"Huh?" Iizunaru seemed to have seen something interesting and pointed in another direction.
"Did you see it? The top of Tokyo Skytree."
Looking in the direction she pointed, Jingu looked intently.
"I don't know when the leaf blew to the top. Whoever can get that leaf first will win. How about that?"
"Okay."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two looked at each other. In Jingu's eyes, a pair of black wings stretched out from Iizunaru's waist almost instantly.
Almost at the same time, the two of them roared away in a strong wind, breaking the sound barrier the moment they started. Fortunately, the room was empty, and only Tamamo Mae's ears were injured.
One, two, three...
But after about a breath and a half, the two returned to the room, holding half of a leaf in each hand, but if you look closely, you can see that the shrine is holding the leaf stalk, so the leaf in the hand is larger.
"Although we arrived at the same time, your hands are faster than mine, so I lose."
Iizunaru put away the wings around his waist and admitted defeat frankly.
"I'm willing to admit defeat, so what do you need me to do for you?"
"Do you know where this generation's Mingju Mamoru is?"
"Hmm..." Iizunaru seemed to be trying hard to think about it, and immediately replied directly: "I don't know!"
Hmm?
Jingu looked at Iizunaru, who raised his head and chest confidently. When he looked back, he found that the fox in front of Tamamo had already disappeared. This guy's escape speed was no slower than theirs.
"Wait a minute, didn't Tamamo-mae say you're very well-informed?" Jingu held his forehead helplessly.
"That's right!"
"What's the answer?"
"I don't know!"
"There is basically nothing that happens in Tokyo that you don't know about?"
"Yes! But this matter is out of the norm." Iizunaru retorted with an innocent expression on his face.
"If I knew everything, I wouldn't have to do research interviews. It's precisely because I don't know many things that I have to investigate."
"Then you just promised to help me?"
"Help." Iizunaru sat back on the chair and raised his long legs. The smooth long legs under the short skirt overlapped, and the calves were wrapped in lace socks.
"I just looked through the memories in my mind at that moment, and found that I really didn't know. After all, I'm just a reporter. If you really want to find me, I can help you rush to the newspaper to see if anyone knows.
”
Iizunaru waved his hand and quickly added a large missing person notice to the completed newspaper.
"No...I think I was tricked by you and that fox..."
When you get back, treat the fox to her favorite fried tofu and treat her as tofu!
"Ahem, don't say that. I have tried my best to fulfill the bet. I don't mind if you want to change it to something else."
"Of course, Se Se's thing is not allowed!"
When he saw Jingu's eyes on him, Iizunaru crossed his hands decisively.
"I think you all have misunderstood me..."
As a lesson from heaven and earth, he has never done anything to bully men, dominate women, or do anything indecent or obscene in the palace, but somehow he has gained a reputation for being lustful and lewd.
Wait a minute, mentioning this, the tengu in front of you seems to be useful...
"Did you just say that you wanted to do an exclusive interview with me?"
Jingu changed his expression and said with a smile.
After all, the pen is a weapon sharper than the sword. Perhaps Iizunaru can use the convenience of journalism to complete the task of using his good name to wash away his bad reputation.
"It's true that I'm interested, but didn't I lose? I'll look for another chance next time."
Iizunaru looks very free and easy, as if he doesn't care about this matter that much.
"Actually, there are indeed a lot of secrets and inside stories about what happened yesterday. It's not suitable to talk about it outside, but..."
Jingu paused for a moment before continuing.
"But we can be regarded as friends introduced by Tamamo-mae. I don't mind telling you a secret if you need it."
"Without further ado my friend, let's get started!"
In the blink of an eye, Iizunaru had put on his glasses, held paper and pen in hand, moved a chair to the shrine, and sat on the opposite side of the shrine himself.
"Ding~"
Huh? Jingu looked at the system panel that suddenly popped up and expressed doubts.
What's going on?
"What are you waiting for? Why don't we start?" Iizunaru can't wait.
"Wait a minute, you are...youkai tengu, right?" Jingu felt it was necessary to confirm.
"Yes, the Great Tengu of Mount Iizuna is the one known as Saburo Iizuna. Is there any problem?"
Iizunaru tilted his head, his face full of confusion.
"Didn't Tamamo Mae tell you that although Tengu is a monster, it is also a kind of belief?"
"I would like to take a seat at the Takaosan Yakuo-in Temple on Mount Takao next to Tokyo, and I will be able to enjoy it right now."
In Yingzhou, there is no difference between monsters and gods, and Jingu once again deeply realizes this.
