Haruhiko put away the Tianquan spell.
When he reaches the fourth level, he will naturally know the truth and falsehood.
If Utsunomiya Mina lied to him, he would punish her well.
"I'll take a shower."
Haruhiko said.
He had been practicing sword practice and his body was covered in sweat.
"Okay, Master."
Utsunomiya Mina's heart beat slightly, but her expression remained unchanged.
She turned around and went to the bathroom, turned on the hot water, and soon mist started to rise.
Haruhiko stretched out his arms.
Utsunomiya Mina helped him unbutton and take off all his clothes.
Seeing him half leaning in the bathtub, he took a deep breath and changed out of his maid uniform.
Haruhiko glanced.
It was probably winter.
The snowy mountains are covered with thick snow.
But there are still pink cherry blossoms in bloom.
Haruhiko closed his eyes and felt the scrubbing of the bath ball.
The previous feeling of fatigue gradually disappeared.
Utsunomiya Mina was very attentive and didn't miss every inch.
Therefore, it took almost two hours to finish taking a shower.
"Good lung capacity."
Haruhiko put on his clothes and praised.
"As long as you like it."
Utsunomiya Mina was slightly startled, turned her head away, and her face turned slightly red.
Although I know she is acting, it is indeed pleasing to the eye.
In addition to being charming, there is also a bit of shyness.
If she were in her previous life, she would definitely be at the level of a movie queen.
"Would you like to stay for supper?"
Utsunomiya Mina followed him and left the bathroom.
"I'll go back and eat."
Haruhiko shook his head.
He didn't want to find a reason to lie to Xue Ji.
Utsunomiya Mina responded.
He took out his shoes from the shoe cabinet, knelt on the ground and helped him put on his shoes.
Because she had just taken a shower, her hair was wet and there were water droplets on her snow-white skin.
Haruhiko lowered his head to admire.
If she wasn't a bad woman, he thought Utsunomiya Mina would be great as a good wife and mother.
"Master, do you need anything else from me?"
Utsunomiya Mina raised her eyes and asked.
"Go and blow-dry your hair yourself."
Haruhiko stood up, pinched her cheek and said, "Thank you for today."
Utsunomiya Mina was stunned.
After he left, he chuckled and said, "This character is beyond my expectation, but that's okay."
Haruhiko was walking on the road when his phone suddenly vibrated.
He raised an eyebrow.
This prompt sound is exclusive to Dayushuo software.
Haruhiko turned on his phone and found that it was a third-level commission from the Edo Archaeological Bureau.
As mentioned above, there was a murder case in Kanagawa Prefecture adjacent to Tokyo, involving a probationary employee of the Edo Archaeological Bureau.
Let Haruhiko go investigate and see if the murderer can be caught.
The reason why the task was given to him was that he had recently advanced to the third level and that it was more convenient since he was on the ground.
As a reward, you can choose a third-level spiritual tool or spiritual material.
Haruhiko will naturally not let go of the good things sent to him.
Just as he advanced to the fourth level, he also needed seven kinds of materials.
Well, by the way, you can bring white frost.
Haruhiko has some doubts about it because of previous events.
But after observing for so long, there is nothing unusual.
Of course, it is also related to the fact that he has not made any commissions during this period.
After all, he is too busy.
When Haruhiko got home, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
As the door opened, Xue Ji appeared wearing a sports vest.
"Welcome home."
She said and held out her arms.
Haruhiko immediately stepped forward and threw himself into her arms.
No worse than Utsunomiya Mina.
It should be said better.
Because she is from the snow girl clan, the touch is different.
"I'm sweating."
Xue Ji obviously didn't expect such an intimate move from him.
I thought it was a simple hug.
"It doesn't matter."
Haruhiko said in a low voice.
Utsunomiya Mina's lung capacity is good, and he's not bad either.
Xue Ji's body trembled slightly and she said nothing more.
She looked gentle and gently stroked his head.
After a moment, Haruhiko let go of his hand.
He looked around and asked, "Are you practicing? Did I disturb you?"
Xue Ji shook her head and said, "It's no big deal."
She said, closing the door and helping him take off his shoes.
The two people walked into the living room.
"I went to cook."
Xue Ji looked at the time and did not change her clothes.
Her fair and smooth skin was exposed, and there was a hint of sweat on her graceful swan neck and delicate collarbone.
But it's not annoying, but rather tempting.
Haruhiko grabbed her arm, and under her doubtful gaze, he came forward and pressed his lips against hers.
A smile suddenly broke out on Xue Ji's face.
She touched Haruhiko's hair and said, "I'm just going to cook and not leave."
Haruhiko let go of his hand and said, "You are so beautiful."
Xue Ji gave him a very charming look.
She turned and headed to the kitchen.
Haruhiko turned to look at Bai Shuang.
One person and one fox looked at each other.
He felt that Bai Shuang's eyes were a little incomprehensible.
"Hoarfrost."
Haruhiko said, "I have a commission tomorrow. How about you come with me?"
Before Bai Shuang could answer, Izumi flew in front of him.
Putting his hands on his hips, he looked at him dissatisfied and asked, "Master, where am I?"
Qing Ning raised her head and said nothing, but her eyes conveyed it.
It wants to go too.
Haruhiko twitched the corner of his mouth.
There are too many women, which is harmful to the body. I didn't expect that there would be too many demons to control, and I am also troubled.
But for a third-level commission, there is no need to bring them all.
Besides, Izumi and Lianyung had little to offer.
"I'll take you there next time."
Haruhiko took out the Benoran Taishou, handed it to Izumi, and said, "Your role is not in fighting."
Izumi pouted and stamped his feet, but chose to be obedient.
As for Qing Ning, it goes without saying that he will not disobey.
Haruhiko looked at Baishuang again and found that its gaze was incomprehensible again.
It's a bit contemptuous, but also means something else.
Haruhiko felt a little unnatural when he was looked at by it.
Wait, why do I feel guilty?
"are you going?"
Haruhiko coughed slightly and asked.
Bai Shuang nodded slightly, agreeing.
"Okay then, you can go out with me tomorrow morning."
Haruhiko paused and then asked, "I have a question, you must be the third level, right? Why can't you speak human language?"
Although monsters have different abilities to speak human words, the third level is often enough.
Bai Shuang was slightly startled when he heard this, hesitating in his heart.
If you don't speak, you naturally don't want to be exposed.
"If it's not human, just speak your native language."
Haruhiko thought for a while and said, "I know a little bit about fox language."
He exposed this mainly for two reasons.
First, it is really difficult to communicate with Bai Shuang.
Second, he has investigated and found that the University of Tokyo really does teach fox language.
In fact, there are more or less big clans among monsters.
Foxes are quite common monsters, and there are many kinds.
It is Tamamo no Mae, one of the three legendary monsters.
"Uh-huh-huh."
Bai Shuang raised his head and spoke formally for the first time.
Translated, she is practicing special magical powers and cannot speak human words.
"I see."
Haruhiko has no doubt that he is there.
The conditions for cultivating magical powers have always been strange.
He made contact with him in the first week of the game.
For example, clairvoyance cannot be opened until it is successfully practiced.
Just once is a failure.
Qingyan didn't ask what magical powers Bai Shuang practiced.
It's confidential after all.
Half an hour later, Xue Ji walked out of the kitchen.
Haruhiko got up and went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and then came to the dining table.
Tonight is a barbecue.
An alluring aroma filled the air.
Haruhiko picked up a skewer, took a bite, and said, "It's delicious."
Second only to Tsuchimikado Mari's BBQ.
But she was roasted with Shiranui flames.
The situation is special.
It's not that Xue Ji's cooking skills are inferior to hers.
In terms of cooking skills, she is impeccable.
Xue Ji smiled and said nothing.
She looked at Haruhiko's three demons again.
In theory, only white frost needs to be fed.
Lime has black peacock feathers, and Izumi is the god of mourning.
Baishuang is a fox, and at low levels, tasting it will help with food.
But what puzzled Xue Ji was that it didn't eat.
I just lie on the sofa all day long, doing nothing and not practicing.
But today Izumi came forward.
Xue Ji gave her a bunch casually.
She has a small body, and it takes several bites to finish each piece of barbecue.
But she worked really hard.
Haruhiko glanced at it and felt that this scene seemed familiar.
Oh, an emoticon from the past life is called repaying kindness.
But the main character is the fox.
Haruhiko twitched the corner of his mouth.
Izumi is really evil-minded.
After dinner, Xue Ji started to clean up.
Haruhiko left the dining table and came to the sofa.
But instead of sitting down, he started practicing the Snow Girl Breathing Technique.
He had discovered before that it was quite good for digestion.
Not long after, Xue Ji reappeared.
She didn't change her clothes, she was still wearing the same vest.
So he and Haruhiko practiced together.
Night falls.
The two people stopped and headed to the bathroom.
Continue to consume excess energy there.
a new day.
Haruhiko walked out of the room and took a breath.
Xue Ji sat on the sofa.
The two beautiful legs in black stockings overlapped each other, glowing slightly under the light.
From Haruhiko's angle, he could see the tightness and symmetry of his round thighs.
It's so early in the morning, it whets your appetite.
"are you awake?"
Xue Ji noticed his look, returned her legs to normal, and moved slightly away.
Her ice blue eyes were full of charm and tenderness.
Haruhiko looked away with difficulty.
She definitely did it on purpose.
"I'm going to wash up."
Haruhiko replied, then turned and went to the bathroom.
Xue Ji couldn't help but laugh.
Her man is so interesting.
It seemed to be the same last night.
Xue Ji's face showed a slight blush.
Not long after, Haruhiko returned to the living room.
After dinner, he made a phone call to Kaoru Aizawa.
It was already past class time, and besides, he was going to do a commission, so he might as well ask for leave.
By the way, he asked about Chiyome.
Her ritual went well, and upon her soul's return, she regained her former vitality.
"Go early and come back early."
Xue Ji helped him arrange his clothes and said softly.
"I will."
Haruhiko nodded, kissed her on the cheek, and left.
Bai Shuang followed at his feet, tail wagging accordingly.
One person and one fox drove to Kanagawa Prefecture.
After arriving at the location provided by the Edo Archaeological Bureau, he got out of the car.
This is a hotel.
It doesn't look luxurious, just ordinary.
The probation officer of the Edo Archaeological Bureau is called Matsushita Takashi, a second-level swordsman.
Like Haruhiko, he is a student at the University of Tokyo.
Panasonic Takashi came here not to do a commission, but to take a vacation.
After the murder, the hotel has been controlled by Da Yu.
Because the Edo Archaeological Bureau is an independent agency, the Grand Imperial Palace did not intervene.
Haruhiko stepped forward and was stopped at the gate.
Entry was granted after showing proof of official membership of the Edo Archaeological Bureau.
He and Bai Shuang took the elevator down and stopped in front of the second room on the third floor.
Haruhiko opened the door and saw the murder scene.
Matsushita Takashi was lying on the bed, very peaceful.
There was no apparent cause of death, and there were no signs of damage nearby.
Haruhiko raised his hand, and spiritual energy surged out, covering Takashi Matsushita.
The best way is to check his physical condition.
With the influx of psychic energy, a lot of information is fed back.
This kind of inspection is not thorough enough, but it is enough.
Haruhiko raised his eyebrows slightly.
Matsushita Takashi looks quite normal on the outside, but the psychic meridians in his body have been destroyed.
This injury is very rare.
If it's murder, it's very easy to do.
Destroying the psychic meridians will take a lot of trouble.
But what is the purpose?
The psychic meridians, if they belong to the same profession, are actually similar, without much difference.
Unless special spells are involved.
For example, the Tianquan spell that Utsunomiya Mina gave him yesterday.
Its spiritual energy operates according to the laws of the stars in the sky.
This will cause certain changes in the spiritual energy meridians.
Haruhiko took out his cell phone.
He opened the Edo Archaeological Bureau section in the Daigosho software.
Contacted customer service and retrieved Panasonic Takashi's information.
The kendo he practices is the popular Natural Rishin-ryu.
Its characteristics are the harmony of natural principles and the emphasis on adapting to circumstances.
In history, Okita Souji and Hijikata Tozo are both representative figures.
If it is just the natural flow of mind, there is no need to destroy the psychic meridians.
After all, there are many people in this kendo sect.
But the information doesn't say there are any special spells to learn.
Haruhiko turned around and asked the hotel manager to call up the surveillance camera.
There are no rooms, only corridors.
The surveillance showed that it was quite normal. Except for Matsushita Takashi, no outsiders came or went.
Haruhiko touched his chin and took out a third-level charm.
Because it involved an investigation, he made preparations in advance.
This spell is called Soul Search.
According to the game settings, people will go to the land of hell after death.
But it doesn't arrive instantly.
They tend to stay for several days.
The emergence of many spiritual beings is also due to the changes in the past few days.
As the spell is used, pale white spiritual energy pours out.
They naturally gathered on Matsushita Takashi's body.
If all goes well, his spirit will be summoned.
But no.
The psychic energy spins around for weeks, yields nothing, and eventually dissipates.
"Are you out of your mind?"
Haruhiko was a little surprised.
The murderer was more vicious than he imagined.
What exactly is this deep hatred?
But why does the Edo Archaeological Bureau data show that Matsushita Takashi was an ordinary psyker?
There are no special spells or complicated relationships.
"Baishang, what do you think?"
Haruhiko looked at the fox at his feet.
Its performance before was quite good.
Although it may not be useful this time, you can ask.
"It's a time spell."
Bai Shuang said.
"Time spell?"
Haruhiko was stunned, confused, and asked, "Where is it?"
Spells such as space, time or soul are generally high-level spells.
Matsushita Takashi is only a second-level psyker, but he is also a swordsman.
It is theoretically impossible to learn.
That's what the murderer left behind.
But what about the traces?
"He has a delaying spell set on him."
Bai Shuang spoke calmly and said, "He was under a spell before, but it was only triggered here."
Haruhiko understood immediately when he heard this.
Matsushita Takashi had died long ago, but the effect of delaying spells allowed him to live for a while longer.
This creates a situation where the murderer is not present.
Sure enough, the world of psykers is different.
But is it overkill to spend all your time just for a second-level psyker?
"Baishang, can you track the murderer?"
Haruhiko thought about it and asked again.
Bai Shuang did not answer, but closed her eyes.
A white spiritual energy flew out and enveloped Matsushita Takashi.
Soon, another very faint translucent spiritual energy emerged.
Haruhiko raised an eyebrow.
It is the fluctuation of the element of time.
Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration.
It is impossible to cast spells, especially high-level spells, without warning.
But Matsushita Takashi was still not alert.
It means that they may be an acquaintance, or they may be in a special environment.
Either the University of Tokyo or the ruins of Takamagahara.
"let's go."
Bai Shuang pointed at the time energy and said, "Follow it, and you may be able to find its owner."
Haruhiko's eyes brightened slightly.
What a capable person.
But then I thought something was wrong.
"Bai Shuang, what is your strength?"
Haruhiko couldn't help but ask.
"Fourth level."
Bai Shuang paused and answered.
It indeed showed too many abilities that the third level could no longer explain.
"Fourth level?"
Haruhiko was stunned and couldn't help but ask, "Then why do you want to be my demon tamer?"
"I'm not your demon master."
Bai Shuang said calmly, "You are not my master either."
"Then why are you following me?"
Haruhiko asked as he pressed the elevator button.
"You smell good."
Bai Shuang rolled his eyes slightly and said, "Staying by your side may help me advance."
"..."
Haruhiko twitched the corner of his mouth.
Advanced?
Indeed it can.
But you have to be like Xue Ji, absorbing the essence day and night.
Haruhiko glanced at it, An Taoist couldn't do it, at least he shouldn't.
The two men left the hotel.
"How strong is that person?"
Haruhiko drives the car, following the invisible psychic energy.
"It should be the fourth level."
Bai Shuang sat in the passenger seat and said.
"The fourth level."
Haruhiko asked hesitantly, "Do you need me to call someone?"
Although Bai Shuang is also at the fourth level, he is worried that he will not be able to defeat him.
"Need not."
Bai Shuang said in a cold tone.
Seeing how confident it was, Haruhiko said nothing more.
Anyway, he has a way to save his life, so in the worst case, he can just run away.
As time passed, Haruhiko realized the problem.
This is the way back to Tokyo University.
Although a little surprised, this is good news.
If he were really at the University of Tokyo, even if he was on the fifth level, Haruhiko wouldn't be afraid.
After all, Chiyome and Kaoru Aizawa are both there.
Some time later, Haruhiko arrived at the University of Tokyo.
It was the afternoon class time and there were not many people there.
Haruhiko and Bai Shuang didn't attract too much attention.
One person and one fox came to the school's artificial lake and stopped.
Because the spiritual energy disappears.
Haruhiko looked around, but there was no clue.
But nothing was found.
He immediately called Kaoru Aizawa and explained the matter.
And please ask her to find all the teachers and classmates that Matsushita Takashi has been in contact with, especially those who have practiced time spells.
Then it's time to wait.
Haruhiko sat on the stone chair, looked at Bai Shuang, and asked, "Do you live in Qingwei Mountain?"
Five thousand words.
