The moment he heard these words, Ye Shencai's body trembled as if he had been electrocuted.
He didn't try to quibble, he just lowered his head, his hair hanging down in front of his forehead and casting a shadow.
"Brother, have you discovered it yet?"
"yes."
Ye Shenkong's voice was very calm.
"Last night at the Miki Industrial Building, when Cai hid in my arms out of fear, I noticed something."
"At that time, Cai's heartbeat and pulse were very stable. The so-called fear was probably just a disguise."
His tone paused slightly, and then he continued.
"But what really convinced me was what Otonashi Cheyuki, who arrived later, said to me."
"She told me, 'Take care of yourself.'"
"Why, even though Mingmingcai was with me, she said such things to me."
Looking at Ye Shencai, whose lips became more and more pursed, Ye Shenkong revealed softly.
"Because in her eyes, Cai actually doesn't need me to take care of her at all."
"Tell everything, Cai."
Although Ye Shenkong's voice was not loud, when it fell in Ye Shencai's ears, every word seemed to turn into a heavy hammer, hitting her heart hard.
Her delicate white fingers couldn't help but tighten the sheets covering her legs, and her shoulders were shaking slightly.
"......sorry."
"Why apologize?"
"Because Cai... deceived my brother." Yagami Cai whispered.
"Even if it is not Cai's intention, deception does exist."
"If you say that, you are confessing, right?"
Hearing this, Ye Shenkong's voice couldn't help but become a little cold.
"My sister actually has extraordinary powers, but as my brother, I know nothing about it, and I was even kept in the dark for a while."
"Cai, can you imagine how I feel now?"
As if he heard the anger hidden in Ye Shenkong's words, Ye Shencai couldn't help but lower his head, and there was even a hint of crying in his voice as he said suppressed.
"I'm sorry, brother, please don't hate Cai..."
The next moment.
Yagami leaned forward, stretched out his hand to rub his sister's hair, and sighed.
"I'm really lucky. It feels like I have two younger sisters."
"I think as far as ordinary people are concerned, there shouldn't be many people who have such good luck as me, right?"
Huh?
Hearing this, Ye Shencai couldn't help but froze on the spot.
She raised her head in confusion, her pretty face that was on the verge of tears just now was now full of dullness.
"Brother, don't you think you are angry?"
"Are you angry? To be honest, a little bit." Ye Shenkong muttered.
His eyes immediately fell on his sister's pretty face and he spoke again.
"However, I believe Cai would not do such a thing without reason."
"So, can you tell me the reason for doing this?"
Hearing this, a look of hesitation flashed across Ye Shen Caiqiao's face.
But in the end, under Ye Shenkong's gaze, he lowered his eyebrows and chose to tell the truth.
Staring at the white sheets in front of him, he whispered.
"Because Cai was asked not to use her own power to interfere with the path chosen by her brother."
"Huh? Who asked you like this?" Ye Shenkong raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Yes...Mother."
Yashencai's voice was almost inaudible.
"Mother?"
Hearing this, Yashenkong couldn't help showing a somewhat surprised expression on his face.
"Does it mean that mother also has such power?"
In response, Ye Shencai did not respond.
He just nodded slightly towards Ye Shenkong.
For a moment, Ye Shenkong couldn't help but fell into silence.
There is such a thing...
It’s not just my sister who has extraordinary powers, but even my mother...
Suddenly, he couldn't help but be shocked.
No, wait, could it be that even that man...
As if seeing Yashenkong's doubts, Yashencai immediately added.
"Please don't worry, brother."
"Unlike mother, father is just an ordinary human being."
Hearing this, Ye Shenkong breathed a sigh of relief.
Just stay within the realm of ordinary humans.
At least I can beat myself.
However, the difference between mother and father in Cai's words should be referring to the ordinary aspect, right?
If it refers to the human aspect, then isn't the mother...
It's a bit scary to think about it.
He thought for a while and asked again.
"So Cai, do you know anything about the inside story of your mother's disappearance?"
"Sorry brother, Cai has no idea about this matter at all." Ye Shencai shook his head.
"After my mother disappeared, Cai awakened this power and also received the instructions left by her mother."
"According to Mother's request, everything about her, including her identity, must be kept secret from my brother."
Her tone paused for a moment, then continued her sermon.
"Including letting my brother come to Tokyo is also my mother's arrangement."
So it turns out that the transfer to Shunoin Academy was arranged by my mother...
Ye Shenkong asked thoughtfully.
"Then why is Cai telling me now?"
"Because Cai... I regret it." Ye Shencai said softly.
"Although I don't know what my mother is planning, after seeing what my brother has faced, Cai thinks that my mother's idea may be wrong."
She suddenly turned her body sideways, and while half-kneeling on the bed, she held onto Yagami Sora's hand.
He held it in front of his chest with both hands, raised his head, stared at the other person's cheek with his clear eyes, and asked sincerely.
"Brother, it's too dangerous for you to be alone in Tokyo. Please go back to Nasuno with Aya."
"If it is there, Cai can guarantee my brother's absolute safety, and at the same time, he no longer has to worry about the intrusion of these young people..."
"Is it absolutely safe? It does sound good."
Feeling the soft care conveyed from the other party's hands, Ye Shenkong thought.
Hearing this, Ye Shencai's pretty face couldn't help but reveal a look of joy that was difficult to conceal.
"Then without further ado, Cai will take brother out of here now——"
"But if we just leave like this, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving in casually?"
"Since my mother will arrange for me to come to Tokyo, it means that there is not only a firm that is on the verge of bankruptcy for me to inherit, but there must also be clues related to my mother's disappearance hidden somewhere in this city."
"This is my mother's real intention in letting me come here."
"So, whether it is a crisis or a test, I will put the reputation of Yagami Detective Agency on the line and solve this incident for her in the most perfect way."
"I won't leave with you, Cai."
"At least, not now."
Having said this, Yagami showed a smile on his handsome face.
He gently patted the back of his sister's hand, signaling her to let go.
At this moment, Ye Shencai kept his head raised and stared blankly at his brother.
After a long while, she let go of her hand and her pretty face turned pale.
"Is that so...Cai understands."
"If this is my brother's choice, Cai will respect it."
As if he had anticipated Yashencai's reply, Yashenkong smiled slightly.
But the next second, he became serious again.
"Then, get out of here quickly, Cai."
"From my point of view, Captain Otonashi's attitude towards you is not very friendly."
"If the other party didn't do anything to you because she was worried about me before, then I don't know what she will do in the future."
"If Aya can ensure her own safety by returning to Nasuno, then go back quickly."
"I will help you deal with the rest."
"Well, it's from Caihui."
Looking at Ye Shenkong's serious expression, Ye Shencai nodded slightly.
She paused slightly, then asked hopefully.
"Well, brother, can you give Cai a kiss before we say goodbye?"
...
Tachibana Medical Center.
Roof.
Looking at the endless traffic on the street, Ye Shencai's eyes showed indescribable loss and resentment.
Behind her, a figure wearing a cherry-white kimono spoke calmly.
"Are you leaving?"
"Yeah, I don't know who gave it to me."
Ya Shencai turned around and hummed towards Otonuche Xueqi.
"Despicable, really despicable. For a bad woman like you, it's best for me to stay away from my brother."
"Despicable? If you say that, aren't you the same?" Otonashi Chexue raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Until now, you haven't revealed your identity as a monster to Yagami. Are you worried about being disgusted by him?"
Hearing this, Ye Shencai was slightly startled, and then stubbornly fought back.
"I will choose a suitable time to explain this matter later."
"Anyway, as long as there is love, race and such are just trivial matters."
"Mother and father have already proven this."
"I'm not interested in your family lineage." Otonashi Chexue said calmly.
"I only care about when you plan to fulfill your promise."
"Problem, right?" Ye Shencai said angrily.
She twisted her waist, raised her right leg and sat back down.
It was as if an invisible throne appeared under her, allowing her to sit firmly in the air.
At the same time, nine pale golden long tails appeared behind her again.
She put one hand on her cheek and pressed the other hand on the armrest of the throne, squinting at Otonashi Chexue with her eyes.
Although he was wearing a loose hospital gown, it looked like a luxurious robe at the moment, which set off his extremely noble and charming temperament.
At the same time as he opened his mouth, powerful spiritual power also burst out and surged around, creating quite a storm.
"Okay, just ask. I swear by the name of Ye God, if I know about it, I will tell you everything."
Facing this powerful air wave, the corners of Otonashi Cheyuki's kimono swayed violently.
However, his figure did not take half a step back, nor did he show any fear. He just spoke calmly.
"Twenty years ago, a small meteorite crashed into the neon Iwate Prefecture without any warning, razing a village there to the ground."
"Act of God?"
Ye Shencai frowned slightly, and her long pale golden tail erected into a screen behind her, guarding her.
Playing with the softest tip of her long tail, she said casually.
"Sorry, there is nothing I can do about things like this."
Otonashi Chexue was not affected by this and continued to speak.
"Although the village looks like an ordinary rural village on the surface, in fact, there is a mystery hidden inside the village."
"It's a ninja village made up of ninjas who have lived in seclusion there for generations."
"Besides, it wasn't a meteorite that destroyed that village."
"But a... monster."
"Moreover, it is an incredibly powerful monster."
"Monster? Do you have any evidence to prove it?"
As if she had been slandered in some way, Ye Shencai couldn't help but put down her legs and stared at the other person coldly, her voice a little unhappy.
"Yes." Otonashi Chexue said calmly.
"Because someone survived the disaster and witnessed the monster destroying the village with his own eyes."
"Oh? Who is it?"
"He is one of my subordinates." Otonashi Chexue said simply.
"According to what he said, the monster's entire body was burning with blazing golden flames, and hidden under the flames was a human-like body."
"And what even the blazing flames can't cover up is the pair of eyes that are as if they were made of gold."
"Wherever it goes, wherever its light shines, even the darkness is evaporated, along with those who try to resist."
"The destruction of the village is just a matter of the blink of an eye."
At this point, Otonashi Chexue's voice couldn't help but pause.
Staring at the thoughtful girl in front of him, he said calmly.
"Did such monsters come from Nasuno?"
"No."
After thinking for a while, Ye Shencai shook his head and gave his answer.
"As far as I know, there is no such monster in Nasuno."
"Really?" Otonashi Chexue asked softly.
The sworn sword appeared silently in her hand, her thumb pressed against the blade, threatening to take it out of its sheath at any time.
"You don't want to cover it up, do you?"
"Covering?" Yagami Cai snorted angrily.
"I have no reason to protect such a vicious monster."
"What's more, the incident happened twenty years ago. At that time, Mother was still in charge of Nasuno. Mother hated such unruly monsters the most."
"If it dared to show up in the future, my mother would have taken Nasuno and beaten her."
"Do you know how terrifying Nasuno is when the Hundred Demons walk at night?"
"In the face of that level of power, the Thirteen Nights in the Army are just clowns."
Hearing this, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly, and her eyes seemed to turn into sharp swords, piercing straight into the opponent's face.
In response, Ye Shencai was not afraid at all and stared back unceremoniously.
The two lines of sight seemed to spark sparks in mid-air.
After a long while, Otonashi Cheyuki withdrew his gaze, and the sworn enemy disappeared in his hands again.
said coldly.
"So, that monster is still hiding in the neon."
"Maybe." The long tail behind Yagami Ai flickered and disappeared behind her, and she fell to the ground again.
"But, those who can do such a thing are not necessarily monsters."
"Could it be that that village did something trespassing and offended the gods in the sky?"
She raised her head and looked at the blue sky.
He raised his arms and made a rectangle with both hands, framing the golden fireball above his head that had been burning for billions of years.
Said with great interest.
"There should be only one god who can release power in that form, right?"
"You mean..."
Hearing this, even Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but feel moved.
