Although she has never had the experience of raising a pet, Otonashi Chexue at this moment also experienced what it felt like to be licked by the big golden retriever at home the moment she opened the door.
Except for little Sagawa Maho who was lying on her chest and crying non-stop, Sora Yagami and Rintaro Nohara also appeared in the room.
Looking at the tearful face in front of her, Otonashi Chexue's expression was suddenly startled, and then she said in surprise.
"Xiao Zuochuan, what's going on? You..."
With her strength, it is not difficult to notice that at this moment, Xiao Sukawa Maho's spiritual power is no longer on the same level as before.
The extent is several times, even ten times higher than before.
It is completely impossible to achieve such earth-shaking changes in such a short period of time.
unless......
Otonashi Chexue's eyes fluctuated slightly.
"Woooo, captain, listen to me, they are all those shameless bastards from Fujin..."
Xiao Saukawa Maho's cries were mixed with grievance and anger, and he recounted what had just happened to Otonashi Cheyuki in detail.
"If Ye Shen hadn't arrived in time in the end, captain, you would never see me again, woo, woo..."
Seeing this, Rintaro Nohara on the side also raised his hand to take credit.
"Um, captain, actually, I also played a big role in Xiao Zuochuan's safe return this time -"
"What are you talking about? Put your hands down!"
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Zuokawa Maho turned around and glared at him fiercely.
Nohara Rintaro trembled, then shrank his neck and put down his hand obediently.
Watching the interaction between Kosukawa Maho and Nohara Rintaro, Otonashi Cheyuki seemed to have noticed something, and couldn't help but look at the two with a slightly amused look.
It seems that the secret between the two of them has finally been revealed.
In this way, the status between Nohara and Kosokawa seems to be reversed.
She then raised her chin and thought.
"Although I once imagined that Jiang Du might be a spy sent by the enemy, I never thought that his true identity would be Fujin's clone. No wonder I always wanted to use him as a breakthrough point to take advantage of him to pass on information to the forces behind him.
I have caught them all in one fell swoop, but I have never been able to catch his flaw. If it is a clone, there must be a more covert way of transmitting information."
"But Xiao Zuochuan, why would Fujin focus on you?"
"Well...even if you ask me, captain, I don't know." Xiao Sukawa Maho said aggrievedly.
"Captain Otonashi, I think what the other party is eyeing is not Xiao Sukawa's inspection, but the power contained in her body."
At this moment, Ye Shenkong suddenly spoke.
The moment she heard this word, Otonashi Chexue's eyes suddenly tightened.
Sure enough, is it the Six Paths of Reincarnation?
To be able to transform little Zuo Chuan in such a short period of time is something that only Six Paths of Reincarnation can do!
"The hidden power?" Xiao Sukawa Maho on the side was startled and said with some confusion, "Yakami, what is that?"
"It's the state I entered when I was on patrol just now. That state is actually a forbidden technique, and the name of the technique is Six Paths of Reincarnation."
Ye Shenkong explained.
"This technique can only be passed down through blood, and it can bring huge power when used. At that time, it was the blood of the ninja village flowing in the patrol body that inspired this forbidden technique, so the patrol could successfully defeat the disaster.
Clone."
"So that's it..." Xiao Zuokawa Maho said suddenly.
At this moment, Otonashi Cheyuki finally recovered from the shock of Kozukawa Maho's Six Paths of Reincarnation and asked.
"Yakami, how did you come to this conclusion?"
"Because I learned a piece of information that the other party's purpose is actually to take revenge on the gods, so I tried to find ways to collect forces that threaten the gods. Among them, the Six Paths of Reincarnation is very likely to be what the other party wants most.
The kind you want to get." Ye Shenkong said calmly.
"So, the enemy's target is actually the Six Paths of Reincarnation..."
Otonashi Chexue did not doubt Yagamiku's words, but fell into thinking again and said softly.
"If this is the case, then there should be another person who is also on the opponent's prey list."
"Is there another person?"
Xiao Zuokawa Maho was stunned for a moment, and then reacted suddenly.
"Ah, by the way, there is also Master, how could I forget Master!"
"Master is also from a ninja village, and the blood of ninjas flows through his body. He should be able to perform the six paths of reincarnation that Yagami said, right?"
"That's right." Otonashi Chexue nodded slightly.
"So the top priority is to find Xiao Zuochuan's master and protect him to prevent the Fujin people from gaining the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation."
"Uh? Do you want to find the master?"
Xiao Zuokawa Maho was stunned for a moment, and then a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
"But captain, it's hard to see Master. When I went back for spring break last time, I searched all over the mountains and fields for several days, but I couldn't find any trace of Master."
"And with Master's character, if he doesn't take the initiative to show up, it would be harder to find him than to find a blade of grass in the mountains... The old man who always wears a mask is proficient in various hiding techniques.
!”
"Don't worry about this, Yagami will go with you this time." Otonashi said calmly.
"Really? Since there is a night god, there should be no problem."
Hearing this, Xiao Sukawa Maho immediately felt relieved and gave a team salute to Otonashi Cheyuki.
"In that case, captain, let me go change my clothes and then set off."
...
With the departure of Kosukawa Maho and Nohara Rintaro, only Yagami Sora and Otonashi Cheyuki were left in the room.
However, neither of them spoke, but maintained an eerie silence.
In the end, it was Otonashi Cheyuki who took the lead to break the silence, turned his gaze to Yagami Sora, and asked softly.
"Why, don't you need to make some more preparations? This mission might be a little tricky."
Yashenkong smiled disapprovingly.
"I don't think it's necessary, because I think the master who inspected Kozagawa is no longer in the mountains of Iwate Prefecture."
"Huh? Why do you say that?"
"Because according to Xiao Zuochuan's description, her master is a very strict person. He not only raised Xiao Zuochuan to be an adult, but also arranged a way out for her. A person like this should be able to
Leave yourself a safe enough escape route.”
"Compared with hiding among ordinary people, it will be safer to blend in among extraordinary people."
"So I guess that the master who was inspected by Xiao Zuochuan may have joined the Ye Fu Thirteenth Team a long time ago and is hiding here at the moment."
"What?"
Listening to Yagami Sora's words, Otonashi Cheyuki's calm expression couldn't help but become slightly moved.
"Does it mean that you already have a candidate in your mind?"
"That's right." Ye Shenkong nodded.
"Then, who is it?"
Faced with Otonashi Cheyuki's question, Yagami Sora calmly smiled and said calmly.
"If I'm not mistaken, the master of Xiao Zuokawa's inspection should be you, Captain Otonashi."
