Hitomigaoka, Rikudo City, Tokyo.
No. 10, 5-chome Sanban.
Tokiwa Shogo arrived at the gate of Daitenji Temple.
dilapidated, dilapidated.
The scene in front of him was almost exactly the same as the picture of the Big Sky Temple that his schoolmate sent him. It could be said to be very realistic.
To this end, Tokiwa Shogo took out his mobile phone, opened the picture, and compared it with the actual scene to ensure that his memory was not wrong.
Putting away his phone, Tokiwa Shogo took a deep breath and exhaled.
"Then, let's start investigating."
First, Tokiwa Shogo walked around the door.
As a result, just like what he saw in the picture, he couldn't find anything related to the plaque of the "Institute of Mysterious Phenomena".
Obviously, from the beginning, Tokiwa Shougo's investigation has cast an ominous shadow.
"What a bad start."
With a slight sigh, Tokiwa Shogo stepped through the gate and stepped into the Daiten Temple.
…
"There are traces of battle..."
When Tokiwa Shogo walked to the courtyard, he bent down and picked up a broken piece of the stone lantern, inspected it, put it down, stood up, looked around, and began to restore the scene in his mind.
Knife marks, stone lanterns shattered by gunfire...
Based on known history, Tokiwa Shougo guessed that this should be the battle that Sky Temple Lord encountered against the Blade-Eyed Demon and the Spear-Eyed Demon when he had just obtained the Ghost Eye Soul.
As soon as he thought of this, in Tokiwa Shougo's mind, three phantoms were immediately constructed in the scene that overlapped with reality.
The Lord of the Sky Temple, the Spear-Eyed Demon, and the Sword-Eyed Demon.
Then, he constructed the phantoms of Onari and Tsukimura Akari based on the original history.
Then, those phantoms began to move.
…
In 2015, on his 18th birthday, Sky Temple Master received a package containing a ghost eye sent by his dead father 10 years ago.
But what he didn't expect was that the package sent by his father came to him along with two ghosts pursuing the power of the eye soul-the Blade-Eyed Demon and the Gun-Eyed Demon.
These two beholders launched an attack on Sky Temple Master and the others.
The Blade-Eyed Demon swung his sword, but the Sky Temple Master, who had gained the ability to look directly at ghosts because he touched the ghost's eye soul, hurriedly dodged.
After being reminded by the Lord of the Sky Temple, both Gosei and Tsukimura Akari learned that there were two more invisible ghosts in the courtyard.
They all showed shocked expressions.
Then, even though he couldn't see it, Yu Cheng still waved his Zen staff vigorously and tried to fight the beholder, but was easily played by the sword-eyed demon.
At the same time, faced with the incredible supernatural phenomenon in front of him, Tsukimura Akari, who had believed in science since childhood, stayed in place because of panic and self-doubt.
"Fake! It's all fake! This must be a physical phenomenon! Ghosts don't exist!"
Hearing these words, the Gun-Eyed Demon held a spear and took the opportunity to stab Tsukimura Akari. He wanted to prove his existence to Tsukimura Akari with blood.
The Lord of the Sky Temple hurriedly jumped forward, taking Akari Tsukimura to avoid the attack of the Gun-Eyed Demon.
Instead, the stone lantern behind Tsukimura Akari was shot to pieces by the Gun-Eyed Demon.
Only I can see, only I can fight... Realizing this, the Lord of the Sky Temple, holding the ghost eye soul, picked up the Zen staff that Yucheng had lost, turned around and led the gun-eyed demon and sword-eyed demon towards the deserted back mountain.
…
His eyes moved along with the phantom constructed in his mind. Tokiwa Shougo also turned his body and looked at the door leading to the back mountain.
There, the phantoms of the Sky Temple Master and the two beholder chased away quickly.
Behind them were Gosei and Tsukimura Akari, who were worried about Tentenji Lord following them.
Immediately afterwards, all those phantoms disappeared in Tokiwa Shougo's mind.
Because Tokiwa Shougo has no plans to follow him for the time being.
In the original history, the reason why Gosei and Tsukimura Akari were able to survive that attack was because the Tenkuji Lord, who was first killed by the Blade-Eye Demon, returned with the power of Kamen Rider Ghost and eliminated the Blade-Eye Demon. Demons and spear-eyed demons.
However, in the history of this alien knight who did not become Kamen Rider Ghost, their ending, as can be seen from the unkempt and repaired courtyard, is obviously not good.
In that chase battle that happened in the past, it is very likely that all of Tenkyoji Lord's side will never return...
Evidence that portended bad results emerged one after another, making Tokiwa Shougo rub his eyebrows.
"well."
With a slight sigh, Tokiwa Shougo took one last look in the direction of the back mountain, turned around and walked towards the Buddhist temple.
…
Dust, cobwebs.
From the Buddhist hall, to the living room, to the basement where the stone tablets are stored.
The phenomenon of long-term lack of popularity is everywhere.
However, there were no other signs of fighting.
Also, Tokiwa Shougo found a physically destroyed laptop on the basement floor that contained the research data of Tenkyoji Ryuu on the stele and the beholder world.
And the person who destroyed that computer... no, a creature, seems to be...
"Meow!!!"
Well, a cat with yellow fur and black stripes.
Looking at the tabby cat with fried fur emerging from the corner and making a warning sound to him with a vigilant look, Shogo Tokiwa thought for a while, leaned down and waved to it gently.
"come over……"
After a pause, Tokiwa Shogo tentatively said the other person's name.
"You Liuxian."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tokiwa Shougo saw that the cat was obviously stunned for a moment, and even the fur that exploded on its body fell down.
"……Meow?"
It couldn't help but tilted its head and made a confused sound.
Hearing his name after a long time, You Liuxian was really... touched.
However, where did this unknown boy in front of me come from? Sent by uncle? Did he finally remember the great Yu Liusen-sama?
Yuryusen, who was unwilling to admit that Edith might be dead, kept complaining in his heart while slowly approaching Tokiwa Shogo with vigilance and grace.
During this process, Tokiwa Shogo always maintained a friendly smile and stretched out his hands without adding any unnecessary movements.
Only after You Liuxian got closer did he gently encourage it.
"It's okay, Yu Liuxian."
Yuryusen approached cautiously, got closer... Finally, he slowly touched Tokiwa Shogo's finger with his body and rubbed it gently.
Seeing this, Tokiwa Shougo immediately seized the opportunity and scratched Yuryusen's neck with nimble fingers and moderate strength.
After a while, You Liuxian squinted his eyes and made a comfortable "guru" sound.
Ah, the long-lost service from mankind.
Just as he was thinking about it, Yu Liuxian felt that he was suddenly weightless, his eyes immediately widened, and he woke up.
"Meow!"
But before Yuryu Sen could begin to struggle, Tokiwa Shougo's explanation, promise, or threat rang out.
"Be good, Yu Liuxian, so that I can help you find Edith."
When You Liuxian heard this, the whole cat was stunned.
Oh my god, is this man threatening a cat?
Still said in such a gentle tone, these words are annoying to cats...
Who is he?
After much hesitation, Yuryusen finally chose to relax his tense body and let Tokiwa Shougo pick it up and take it away.
Anyway, there will be no worse situation...
At least, this person still likes cats...probably.
You Liuxian thought so.
…
When entering the Buddhist temple, Tokiwa Shougo entered empty-handed.
When he came out, Tokiwa Shougo brought out a cat...well, and a laptop that was physically destroyed.
Tokiwa Shougo felt that although the laptop seemed hopeless and had been badly smashed, if he took it back and showed it to his uncle Junichiro Tokiwa, maybe it might have a chance of survival again?
Just as he was thinking about it, at this moment, Tokiwa Shougo's cell phone suddenly rang with an incoming call.
Jingle Bell--!
Tokiwa Shougo immediately answered the call, and the voice that rang out from the receiver of the phone was indeed Shinnosuke Tomari—Shin's eldest brother.
"Hello, Shougo?"
On the way here, Tokiwa Shougo not only called Kiryu Sento and asked for help, he also called Tomari Shinosuke, a criminal police officer, and asked him to help investigate the cases related to the Daitenji Temple, as well as those of the Tentenji Temple Master. Friends’… home addresses.
"Well, brother Jin, have you finished checking the files?"
