Judging from the changes in her expression, the Nine-Tailed Fox might have been surprised at the death of Ibaraki Doji at first, but then she immediately remembered a reason that made her quickly accept the fact.
Could it be that the death of Ibaraki Doji has anything to do with Tamamo Mae?
Fang Cheng was deep in thought and suddenly remembered that the Nine-tailed Fox said that she had been hiding in this cave for sixteen years.
It was also sixteen years ago when Ibaraki Doji went out to snatch the certificate and returned to the Iron Palace with serious injuries.
Because Yuguang Future happens to be sixteen years old this year.
Fang Cheng suddenly had a guess in his mind. Could it be that Tamamo Mae and Ibaraki Doji were injured while fighting each other for certificates?
But the nine-tailed fox also said that she has a very good relationship with Ibaraki Douji.
And if Ibaraki Doji was really injured by her, he would not bring it up in front of Fang Cheng and try to build relationships.
It is also possible that Tamamozen and Ibaraki Doji teamed up to snatch the certificate, but how strong is the enemy that can seriously injure them at the same time?
The nine-tailed fox was right in front of him, so Fang Cheng didn't have to think about it, and asked directly: "How did you get injured, so you used a clone to escape, and you hid in the cave for sixteen years and didn't dare to go out?"
The nine-tailed fox stared at Fang Cheng twice and suddenly smiled: "You don't think Ibaraki Doji's death is related to me, do you?"
This fox is really sharp. He is worthy of being an old monster who has lived for many years.
Fang Cheng didn't hide anything: "He was seriously injured sixteen years ago and died recently due to a recurrence of his old injuries. Who do you think injured him?"
"It should be the same person who hurt me."
The nine-tailed fox's expression was calm, but a stern look flashed in his eyes: "You must have heard of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, right?"
Fang Cheng nodded slightly. He heard him mention it when he was chatting with Takumi Kamikawa.
These four monsters are called religious lunatics even in a world where religious power is so strong.
They frantically hunt down all enemies who are considered to be the incarnation of Satan. As long as they are judged to be the incarnation of Satan, they will not let go, regardless of whether they are from the enemy camp or their own camp.
The nine-tailed fox continued: "The one who injured me was the War Knight among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. He came to District 11 sixteen years ago and believed that I was the so-called incarnation of Satan..."
At that time, she was still Tamamo-mae, and she was very honest and did her duty. She did not establish the Iron Palace and fight against humans like Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji.
She has been pretending to be an ordinary young woman, enjoying the ever-changing modern life in Tokyo, and she feels a little bit happy and unwilling to miss life.
Unfortunately, an accident exposed her identity and she had to leave Tokyo. Sometimes being too famous is not a good thing.
Not long after leaving Tokyo, the War Knight of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse came to visit, announcing that Tamamo Mae was the incarnation of Satan and would judge her.
No matter how Tamamo-mae defended her, it was useless. The two sides fought, and in the end Tamamo-mae was defeated miserably and had to use a clone to escape.
The nine-tailed fox was one of the escaped clones, fleeing all the way back to Hokkaido and hiding in the desolate Hidaka Mountains.
It has been hiding for sixteen years. During this period, the nine-tailed fox has never left the cave. The bone girl who has been controlled by remote control has always gone out to help her hunt for food and use the monster's life essence to recuperate.
This bone girl has great potential. Under the training of the nine-tailed fox, she quickly gained the power of danger level A and entered the ranks of great monsters.
Because he was afraid that the war knight would come to his door, the Nine-tailed Fox strictly ordered the bone girl to leave the Hidaka Mountains and only hunt within this range.
After sixteen years, almost all the monsters in the Rigao Mountains were hunted down by the bone girl, so they had to go outside to find food, and then they set their sights on Qingxue who was passing by.
After listening to the nine-tailed fox's story, Fang Cheng asked curiously: "You were chased by the war knights. What does this have to do with Ibaraki Doji?"
"Didn't you say that Ibaraki-douji was injured in the same year as me?"
The nine-tailed fox smiled and said: "At that time, no monster could hurt him in District 11, and the War Knight happened to be in District 11. Who else could be the murderer besides him?"
Fang Cheng thought that Nine-tailed Fox had some evidence, but it turned out to be just a guess.
"But why did I hear that Ibaraki-douji was injured when he was fighting for the certificate of the Lord of Demons?"
"Then I don't know,"
The nine-tailed fox slightly shrugged its snow-white shoulders and said, "After all, I am just a clone, and I have not known foreign affairs for more than ten years."
Her swollen face had long since recovered, and her every frown and smile had a peerless charm, and she began to stir up the fire in Fang Cheng's heart again.
However, Fang Cheng's attention at the moment was focused on pondering the doubts in his heart, and he was not disturbed much.
He felt that the words of the nine-tailed fox were somewhat untrue and must have concealed a lot of information.
It was just something that happened more than ten years ago, and the nine-tailed fox was the only person involved. If she deliberately wanted to lie, Fang Cheng couldn't expose her.
Seeing that Fang Cheng was still thinking about this matter, the nine-tailed fox began to change the subject: "So why did you arrest me? Are you planning to avenge Ibaraki Doji? You really have the wrong person."
Fang Cheng came to his senses and felt that there was no need to continue to dwell on what happened more than ten years ago. After all, it had little to do with him.
"There is no mistake. I happened to be here to find you."
Fang Cheng told Kanzaki Rin's situation, including her parents.
After hearing this, the nine-tailed fox blinked its charming big eyes and looked aggrieved: "That must have been done by other clones and has nothing to do with me. Besides, the parents of the girl you mentioned cannot be blamed for their death. On my head?"
If viewed from a fair and objective perspective, Tamazomae cannot be blamed for what happened to Rin Kanzaki's parents.
She was caught in an underground prison, and she just tried to escape after encountering trouble. The tragedy of Kanzaki Rin's parents stemmed from the blame-shifting of the bureaucrats and the inappropriate people in the Nest of Life.
Rin Kanzaki also knew this, so she targeted the Nest of Life and the bureaucrats who blamed her for her revenge, and never thought of seeking revenge against Tamamo Mae.
"I admit you have a point."
Fang Cheng pointed the lightning hammer at the nine-tailed fox: "What about the killing stone? This thing is in her body, causing her to suffer a lot, and it will also take away her life."
The nine-tailed fox rolled his eyes slightly: "After the fight with the war knight, the killing stone fell from my hand. I didn't have time to escape, so how could I deliberately hurt your little girlfriend? Everything was a coincidence. That’s all.”
Fang Cheng said angrily: "You have left yourself completely alone."
"That's the truth!"
The nine-tailed fox puffed up his mouth and said innocently: "I obviously do my duty honestly, why do they think it's my fault and come to trouble me one by one?"
Fang Cheng sneered: "A thousand-year-old monster says you are honest and do your duty? Are you doing the splits while walking, are you talking nonsense?"
"You're wrong."
The nine-tailed fox was not angry, but smiled slightly: "Although I have the memory of the original body, it has only been sixteen years since my birth, so strictly speaking, I am only a sixteen-year-old girl."
Her speech and behavior really give people a sense of youthful vigor, and she has no scruples in being cute and coquettish, unlike a thousand-year-old fox.
Fang Cheng was not interested in discussing how old she was, and asked directly: "Can you take out the killing stone?"
"If it is integrated into the body, it should be able to be taken out after killing the person..."
When she saw Fang Cheng tightening his grip on the lightning hammer, she quickly changed her mind: "I can give it a try, but there's no guarantee of success."
Fang Cheng interrupted her: "It's not that success is not guaranteed, but success must be achieved."
If he couldn't succeed, what would he want the fox to do? Wouldn't it be better to just kill him and touch the body?
The nine-tailed fox did not expect Fang Cheng to be so domineering and unreasonable: "What if it fails?"
Fang Cheng glanced at the fox fur wrapped around her body and said with a smile, "I just need a piece of fox fur to make clothes."
Nine-tailed fox: "..."
She had no doubt that the man who dared to punch her in the face would do such a cruel thing.
After catching the nine-tailed fox, Fang Cheng was no longer in the mood to continue hunting monsters in the countryside, so he set out home the next day with his two cats and the nine-tailed fox.
The effect of the lightning hammer's sealing ability does not last long, but it has a special effect on the nine-tailed fox. One hammer blow will paralyze her for most of the day.
Afraid that the nine-tailed fox might cause trouble on the way back, Fang Cheng beat her head full with a hammer.
The nine-tailed fox was so beaten that he was filled with rage, but he could not resist at the moment and could only keep this account in his heart.
In order to rush back as soon as possible, Fang Cheng chose to take the Blood Eagle and fly back to the Machinery City from the Rigao Mountains in less than half a day.
Flying near the Mechanical City, Fang Cheng chose a deserted place to land. Taking the Blood Eagle directly into the city would be too conspicuous and easily discovered by others.
Since the coup in Mechanical City, District 11 has sent many spies to Mechanical City to gather information.
Although people around Fang Cheng have been hiding their identities, like Rin Kanzaki who puts on makeup every time he goes out, some clues are still found.
The District 11 government has now determined that people close to Fang Cheng are in the Machinery City, but it is still unable to determine whether he and Kamikawa Takumi are in the city.
Once confirmed, it is unknown what retaliatory actions District 11 will take.
Therefore, both Fang Cheng and Kamikawa Takumi have always kept a low profile and never appeared in front of the public.
After landing, Fang Cheng put on human skin directly, while the nine-tailed fox put on Qingxue's clothes to cover up his exposed figure.
"Oops, it's a little tight."
The nine-tailed fox touched the clothes on his chest and buttocks and complained with a smile.
Qingxue didn't seem to hear it, her cold and pretty face showed no expression at all.
Her figure is good enough for her peers, even too good, but she still looks a little green compared to the nine-tailed fox.
Although Jiuweihu has always emphasized that he is only 16 years old, his body is like the most mature peach, and sweet juice can flow out with just a pinch.
The youthful vigor and mature charm are in her body at the same time. Not only are there no contradictions, but they complement each other, making the vixen's charm even stronger.
This is why Fang Cheng can withstand it. If it were another person, he would become her subordinate in a short time.
The words of the nine-tailed fox did not stimulate Qingxue, but instead stimulated Yueguang Chuxia.
The fat cat lowered his head and glanced at his microwave. He stretched out his hand with half envy and half annoyance and pinched the nine-tailed fox's chest hard: "Huh, it's just fat, but you dare to call me fat."
The nine-tailed fox covered his chest and chuckled: "There is no good or bad fat. It can only be valuable if it is in the right position."
But in my heart, I was secretly annoyed that this damn fat cat and dog relied on human power, so it was best not to fall into my hands in the future.
Otherwise, we will build a running cage and lock you in it for a hundred years.
