"Ms. Fujimori seems to belong to the former. I noticed that her soul only has the fatigue and pain of not being able to rest, and there is no resentment. That's why she is unwilling to leave this world."
"Including her body, it was recreated by magic based on the memories of living people who were familiar with her. The original body must have died long ago... now it is the necklace that is hanging her life. Once the necklace leaves the body too far, This body will also disintegrate automatically.”
"Miss, that means..."
"...Well, yes." Erina lowered her head and stared at the piece of cake: "She will rest in peace again."
Yoshiyuki looked at the necklace around the store manager's neck again.
I couldn't help but sweat.
If this thing is stolen while sleeping, the consequences will be serious.
You have to be careful at all times.
He didn't understand why it had to be made into a necklace. It was obviously safer to make it into bracelets, rings, necklaces and other accessories.
If Miss Fujimori's soul longs to rest in peace, then they will definitely find a way to help her out.
But since she would rather suffer torture and continue to live, they would naturally just pretend not to notice this.
Being able to re-create a physical body and bind a soul within it is extremely difficult.
Moreover, these secret techniques often require the qualifications of the deceased, and not everyone can apply them.
In any case, Yi Xing was shocked to see that the store manager continued to work in the store in such a state of life and death, and that ordinary people could not notice anything strange.
In fact, according to the traditional concepts of the Yida family, the deceased should not return to the ordinary world.
But Erina didn't care much about that.
She felt that many of the ideas of the Yida family were too old-fashioned and unbearable.
In the eyes of the eldest lady, as long as the deceased does not pose a threat to the eternal world and lives a low-key life, then there is no need to accuse and interfere.
"Okay, Yoshiyuki. Feed me some cake."
Erina's smiling voice brought his thoughts back to the real world.
So Yoshiyuki nodded with a smile, cut into a fan-shaped black cake with a cherry on top, and fed it into her little mouth.
Erina spoke highly of this cake, especially the cherry wine flavor.
So, after urging Yoshiyuki to try it quickly, she asked the boss to take a sip of cherry wine, but Ms. Fujimori firmly refused.
"I'm sorry, Erina-sama. We wouldn't do such a thing. You are not old enough to drink yet."
"Just give me a taste! You are also a violent group, and you have done a lot of illegal things!"
"Erina-sama, we never do anything illegal." Miss Fujimori smiled and said, "We just follow the rules like the Yida family."
Erina was speechless for a moment.
Therefore, she could only continue to mutter.
"Hmph, you're so rigid... I've obviously used wine to drive away evil spirits from time to time, so why can't I drink it?"
This is probably one of the important reasons why Erina is very interested in wine.
Sake is often used as a prop in the Yida family's exorcism rituals.
She had learned how to cast spells with this thing since she was a child, but she had been forbidden to taste it.
The high-grade sake brewed by the Yida family using ancient secret methods passed down for thousands of years has a very attractive taste.
The alcohol smell is very light, just a strong aroma. Warmed wine is even worse. If the door is open, the aroma will even pass through the corridor of dozens of meters to the end.
Because of this, it is perfect for luring alcohol-hungry youkai into traps, as a tribute, and even as a reward to drive shikigami and familiars.
They saw this wine being sold in the supermarket last night. A 1.8-liter bottle of sake sold for 33,000 yen, which was more than twenty times more expensive than affordable sake.
This is also one of the main incomes of the Yida family.
"Miss, please don't embarrass me. Wine actually just smells good and is nothing to drink." Yoshiyuki comforted her and said, "And as a spiritual person, you must avoid getting drunk. In case you become drunk and go crazy. Attacking others with magic will not end well."
"It's such an exaggeration...Yi Xing, why don't you stare at me and snatch the cup away when you think I'm getting drunk." She complained like this, then suddenly sniffed, and was immediately intoxicated by the aroma of coffee. Get up: "Wow..."
"Your coffee is ready~!" A waiter in a maid uniform brought them over and handed them to the two of them with a smile: "Please use them slowly!"
"The latte art is very good." Erina looked at the delicately carved milk foam on the coffee, licked her lips, and praised: "Is this a panda painted on it? It's so cute!"
"No, it's a dog." The barista wearing a half-face mask said awkwardly.
Yoshiyuki felt that one of the two people must be blind, so he quietly took a look.
He felt that there was clearly a hamster on this latte art. I couldn’t help but marvel at the barista’s latte art skills.
"Next time, don't draw animal heads for your guests." Ms. Fujimori took a look and said, "If your guests ask for this kind of latte art, just let me do it."
"Uh, okay." The masked man was extremely ashamed: "Does the guest want to make a new drink?"
"No need. Anyway, the latte art will disappear soon after you drink it." Erina took a sip and thought it tasted good: "Well, it tastes good! So... Yoshiyuki?"
He knew that the eldest lady was hinting that he should take the initiative to propose a proposal.
So Yoshiyuki nodded naturally and mentioned this.
"Ms. Fujimori, we are here today not only to drink coffee, but also to inquire about something."
"I guess so." Fujimori Kiriko wiped the plate and looked at the two of them calmly: "Excuse me? As a member of the Black Feather Group, I will tell you anything I know."
Does it turn out that she is indeed a member of the Kuroba Group, not just a partner?
Yoshiyuki noticed that her little finger was intact and realized that the Kuroba-gumi was not the type to cut off her little finger to show their determination when they join a violent group.
So the team member I saw last night probably made a mistake and was asked to cut off his knuckles.
Since Ms. Fujimori said so, Yoshiyuki bluntly stated what they were thinking.
He said that the two of them came here not only to go to high school, but also to try their best to drive away the evil spirits that harm the world and make Tokyo safer.
Therefore, I want to solve the murderer who recently caused the mysterious deaths of many girls. After all, judging from the news, this incident looks very much like the work of a demon.
"I see, so you want to ask the Black Feather Group if they have any relevant information to provide, right?" Miss Fujimori listened to their words, pressed her eye mask slightly with her hand, and her expression became serious.
"Yes, please, Ms. Fujimori."
