Suddenly a gassho thatched house burst into flames...
The entire Shirakawa-go herringbone gassho-style thatched houses are built with real thatch and wood, and are all world cultural heritage.
Every thirty or forty years, the thatched roofs of Gassho roofs must be replaced. The whole village will gather together and work together to replace each house with new thatch.
At this time, the gassho-zukuri, which carries the dream and inheritance of the entire Shirakawa-go, burned quickly, and the snow on the roof melted into water.
The fire lit up the entire Shirakawa Township.
Outside the thatched house, members of the Mysterious Business Department were dragging two adults towards the vehicle outside the house.
The two people who were dragged fought hard, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't break away from the members of the Mysterious Business Unit.
Relatives of these two people also rushed out to help, but they were all knocked down one by one.
"Let go of my dad!" A young man rushed out holding a big mallet used to beat rice cakes. However, when the extremely heavy mallet fell, it was grabbed by a member of the Mysterious Business Department with one hand and remained motionless.
But he saw this member of the mysterious business department casually throw the hammer away with the young man.
These members of the mysterious business unit who have been injected with genetic medicine treat ordinary people like adults facing children.
A member of the Mysterious Business Department said coldly to the young man lying on the ground: "These three people are the people on our list to be taken away. We want to give them a better future. You are doing this to break up with the entire group."
Is the Mysterious Division an enemy? I advise you not to try again, otherwise all the gassho-zukuri in Shirakawago will become history."
Including Jinguji Maki, these three people are all people who were confirmed by the Mysterious Business Department to have the qualifications to travel after comparing the household registration information of the "outside and inside worlds".
A total of four vehicles and seven people came from the Mysterious Business Department.
For a small place like Shirakawago, there is no need to mobilize troops, 7 people are enough.
At this time, Jinguji Maki was sitting in the back seat of the vehicle with red eyes, trying his best to suppress his crying.
She didn't know why these people wanted to arrest her, nor where she was being taken.
The eight-year-old girl only knew that her grandma had fallen to the ground because she wanted to stop these people from taking her away, but she did not know that her grandma was already dead.
She only knew that these people were extremely vicious and as powerful as the legendary supermen. It would be difficult for anyone to compete with them.
In addition to her, the other two arrested were an uncle from the Shirakawago Puppet Theater and a sister from the Shirakawago handicraft store.
Every year during the autumn festival, the uncle will perform a lion dance with puppets. This is a favorite show among children and tourists.
In the past, before anything happened to her father, he would take little Maki to see a puppet show every autumn. At this time, the uncle who was arrested with her would invite her to stand in the front row.
The sister in the handicraft store will choose a simple small gift for her.
At that time, Shirakawa-go was really like a paradise on earth, a paradise on earth, carefree.
At this moment, the uncle and sister were lifted into another car by people from the mysterious business department, as if they were nothing.
This scene dumbfounded little Maki and made her feel desperate.
At first, the little girl hoped that Onii-chan would suddenly appear as a hero and rescue her.
But at this time, she just hoped that Qingchen would not return to Baichuan Township and not see this scene.
Because these people are too powerful and cannot be dealt with by ordinary people.
In fact, the little girl is not very sure whether the brother will really come to save her after knowing that she is in danger.
Probably not?
After all, these people are so powerful.
After all, that brother had not known him for long.
We are not very familiar with each other, so who would offend the Mysterious Division for a stranger whom we are not familiar with?
Thinking of this, Jinguji Maki not only didn't feel sad, but actually breathed a sigh of relief.
It was obvious that she was the one in danger, but her first reaction was that such a gentle and kind brother should never let anything happen to her.
The members of the Mysterious Business Department got in the car one after another and drove away from Shirakawa Township the way they came.
The little girl couldn't stop crying. She looked at her home getting further and further away, thinking what a pity. It would be great if she could spend some more time with her brother.
She had already asked the aunt at the hot spring hotel next door to teach her how to cook, and she also thought that she would cook a decent meal for her brother within a month.
Also... I don’t know how grandma is doing and whether she can get better.
The member of the Mysterious Business Department looked at the little girl and joked with a smile: "This little girl is very beautiful. I will apply to the captain when I get back and give her to me so that she can become my pet."
"Then you have to make a contribution, otherwise, I might get this pet before you do."
The words these people spoke were vulgar and bad, as if they did not regard Jinguji Maki as a living, independent person.
The vehicle was driving in the mountains for a period of time when suddenly there was a roar and a rock fell from above and hit the hood of the first off-road vehicle.
The rocks were so heavy that after hitting the engine, the rear of the off-road vehicle tilted up and rolled to the right.
All the airbags in the off-road vehicle were deployed, and the vehicle could not stop rolling. It actually broke through the guardrail and fell to the bottom of the mountain.
The ravine here in Shirakawa Township is not deep, and it can reach more than ten meters if it is stretched to death. If the members of the Mysterious Division are lucky, they will not die.
Someone said on the car intercom: "Two people go to the bottom of the mountain to check the situation. I suspect it is man-made."
"Such a big rock requires at least B grade to be able to lift it. I think it may be a coincidence that we encountered a landslide."
"It's always good to be careful."
The convoy stopped, and someone rushed out of the car and groped down the mountain to find it.
At this time, the vehicle where Jinguji Maki was sitting suddenly heard the sound of knocking on the glass.
The members of the Mysterious Business Department in the car, as well as Jinguji Maki, all slowly looked out the window, and saw a young man standing bent over outside, looking in through the car window.
Jinguji Maki was stunned.
It was like a person who was about to fall into the abyss, suddenly looked up and saw a beam of light shining through the gap in the abyss, and a hand stretched out.
She felt that the world was becoming warm again.
However, the little girl looked at the brother silently with her eyes wide open, she was crying and shaking her head anxiously.
She doesn't want the other person to fall into the abyss with her.
However, Qingchen suddenly smiled and pointed at her eyes, squeezing his palms together and gesturing for her to close her eyes.
The next moment, Jinguji Maki obediently closed her eyes. She didn't know what Qingchen wanted to do, but subconsciously followed his instructions.
"Hey, who are you? You..." A member of the Mysterious Business Department got out of the car. Before he could take out his firearm, Qingchen slashed his neck with a knife.
However, ordinary people would chop the neck with a hand knife to hit the main artery in the neck and cause fainting.
But Qingchen's sword directly broke the opponent's neck bone.
The members of the Mysterious Business Department were stunned. Where did this master come from?!
Wait, isn’t this the person who just threw the rock down the mountain?!
The members of the Mysterious Business Department were shocked and confused.
How could such a character appear in such a remote and remote place?
You know, Shirakawa Township is just a remote village, and the members of the Mysterious Division who come here are not very powerful.
Now Qingchen is practicing and has awakened two power systems that are both C-level, which means that his power has already broken through the critical point of the C-level peak.
In the eyes of the Mysterious Business Department, the villagers of Shirakawa Township are ordinary people, ants, and worthless people.
But in Qingchen's eyes, are these members of the mysterious business department not the same?
Jinguji Maki didn't know yet that Onii-chan, who brought her back on a mountain bike, had made the entire Osaka Mysterious Business Department live in tension and fear.
"Baga!" In another car, a member of the mysterious business department yelled and got out of the car, raised his hand and quickly pulled the trigger.
But he was shocked to find that the speed with which his arm turned the muzzle was not as fast as Qingchen's dodge.
It wasn't until this moment that the members of the Mysterious Division realized that they had encountered a monster!
Someone wanted to directly use the 'Shirakawago hostage' around them to threaten Qingchen not to come near, but Qingchen had already obtained the pistol!
At such a close distance, it felt absolutely like the will of God.
Maki Jinguji closed his eyes obediently.
In the little girl's world, she could only hear the curses, gunshots, and then wails of members of the Mysterious Division.
Finally there was silence.
The member of the mysterious business department at the foot of the mountain finally carried his companion on his back, but was shot to death before he could react.
The little girl was trembling while sitting in the car. She didn't know how much time had passed before a warm hand covered her eyes, then hugged her and slowly carried her out of the off-road vehicle.
"never mind."
She heard someone whispering softly in her ear.
Jinguji Maki knew that this brother was worried that he would see some cruel scenes.
The tenderness and kindness of the other person come from the heart.
But the problem is, those guys who call themselves the Mysterious Business Department are very powerful. Has Onii-chan managed to get rid of them all?
Jinguji Maki listened attentively. She could no longer hear the voices of the members of the Mysterious Business Department. They seemed to have all died.
So... Onii-chan is really special.
Thinking of this, the little girl silently leaned her head on Qingchen's shoulder, letting her tears flow down Qingchen's warm fingers.
"Onii-chan, have you seen grandma?" Jinguji Maki asked in a low voice.
Qingchen was silent for a moment: "Grandma is gone."
He did not choose to lie, because a person always has to understand how cold the world is, and then he will understand how important the warmth in his heart is.
Qingchen said to the other two people in Shirakawa Township: "You two push the car down the mountain and find relatives to avoid the limelight. Believe me, if the mysterious business unit finds you, your end will be worse than imagined."
With that said, he did not stay any longer.
Qingchen knew very well that pushing the car down the mountain would only delay the response of the mysterious business department.
Tonight, the other party discovered that his companion did not successfully return to Osaka City Hall, and will soon come to investigate the situation.
Perhaps tomorrow morning, the Mysterious Business Department will arrive in Shirakawa-go and review everything that happened last night.
The other party will know that the arrest operation was successful. If the other party does not see the three time walker reservists at the scene of the car accident, they will immediately blockade the entire Shirakawa Township and investigate the clues.
There is not much time left for Qingchen. He wants to take Maki Jinguji into the mountains at night until he completes the life and death test before returning to Shirakawa Township.
Qingchen whispered: "I've gone back to bury grandma. I'm going to take you to Ousui Takayama. You have to stay with me for a few days. Although the conditions are a bit difficult, everything will be fine."
The little girl cried for a long time, and her grandma was finally gone.
Qingchen did not comfort her, nor did he urge her to stop crying. This is what little girls will experience sooner or later.
After a long time, Jinguji Maki looked up with red eyes: "Onii-chan, have I caused trouble for you?"
Qingchen nodded: "Well, yes."
The little girl lowered her head guiltily.
The next second, Qingchen said softly: "But it doesn't matter."
After saying that, he put the little girl down, held her cold little hand and walked towards Shirakawa Township.
People from the Mysterious Business Department will soon come to die.

Sorry, I only have one chapter today. I overestimate myself. Sometimes my legs hurt so much that I can’t concentrate. After writing a chapter, it takes a long time to revise it until I am satisfied with it. I may update it first in the next two or three days...
