Curse of the Eye of the Dead

Chapter 112

But in the current situation, it is obviously not feasible for Toranojiro to directly object.

Raising objections independently when the trend is obvious will not only fail to change the final decision, but will also reduce Toranojiro's right to speak because of breaking the high-level game rules.

We have to find a way to seize the initiative in this situation.

So, the best and most natural thing to do now is——

"This is indeed the truth, and it is not a loss to check."

Toranojiro thought quickly, and then slowly said, "Speaking of which, Yokohama has not been investigated for a long time. If we can use the unidentified tutelary god as an excuse to obtain Yokohama's investigation permission, we can also check that city by the way. status quo."

He mentioned the particularity of Yokohama.

The government of the city of Yokohama obviously doesn't welcome interference from the magic world. If the government wants to cooperate with the investigation, it must obtain a permit. Otherwise, it can only enter as a tourist and will not receive assistance from any government agency.

"Yes, we still need to investigate the permit... Hey, Takenaka, are you in charge of handing over to the government? What is the current policy in Yokohama? Can you get a permit?"

“The rumors about [the Guardian God] are too hot, and it should be no problem to get a short-term investigation permit.”

"The Tsurumi family sent an assistant supervisor, but they didn't get any useful information. It's been such a long time now. If they send an assistant supervisor again, the result will still be the same... So, this time, we still add the conjurer for comparison. good."

Toranojiro pondered for a while pretendingly: "Which conjurer should we send? The ability should also match. It is best that the technique has a certain investigative effect, and it must not exclude the capture of the curse spirit alive, and it must be on the side of our senior management. On the other side... it will be hard to find this candidate for a while, forget it! This matter is urgent, and the longer it drags on, the harder it will be to find out. I can't trust other people, why don't I go there myself."

The other high-level executives recalled Tsurumi Toranojiro's skills, and their eyes lit up immediately, "Yes, your technique has a detection effect, I remember it is called... [Mirage]? Is it a magic technique of hallucinations and detection? "

Toranojiro nodded naturally.

Toranojiro's spells have the ability to create illusions and sense mana.

Illusions, as the name suggests, can create false illusions.

It is more complicated to detect this point: as long as there is a collection of spell power, filth, or spell markings including spell spirits within a radius of 50 meters, even if you can't see or feel it, Toranojiro will get a general direction guide, and in the When you come into close contact with traces of various spells, including filth and magician's mark, you can selectively activate the spell, and replay the scene ten seconds ago in the form of "illusion" in Toranojiro's mind come out.

Although it is only possible to replay the scenes that have left traces of the past ten seconds, most of the time it is enough.

"If there are really marks of filth or curse spirits, I can quickly confirm the identity, strength level and threat of that [Guardian God]." Torajiro accurately grasped what the top management cared about most.

"Very well, I will leave this matter to you." The other senior executives immediately made a decision.

An excellent [-]-year-old boy obviously has a very obvious advantage among the top management.

For an old man like Toranojiro who looks exactly like his kind, it is basically impossible for other high-level colleagues to doubt him-after all, the past resume of the other party can be checked clearly, and anyone who reads it will classify him as a high-level faction.

The second-five boy, Torajiro, who was determined to get to the top in recent years, did not change his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief: it is stable.

However, this breath was obviously too early.

A high-level person suddenly said: "However, there were too many people who were blessed by miracles in that war. As far as we know, there are at least dozens of people who have direct contact with [Guardian God]... and they are basically distributed in different regions. It’s too slow for the Tsurumi family to get in touch one by one, and if there is any filth left, it will have to disappear..."

"What do you want to say?"

"I thought of another very suitable candidate... we might as well send Wujo Wu over there!" The high-level man said quite naturally: "Gojo Wu's [six eyes] are very useful when detecting traces of magic power, and The combination of the Tsurumi family's spells is even more powerful, and... the Tsurumi family, you should separate and keep in touch by yourself, and by the way, you can supervise that kid Gojo Goto and catch him as much as possible."

Toranojiro of the Tsurumi family: ...

Toranojiro: Let me supervise Gojo Satoru, did you just iron out the creases in your brain before you said that?

Toranojiro remained expressionless: "Aside from the facts, this is indeed a good idea... Don't you know the character of that kid Gojo Satoru? With all due respect, he probably won't accept such a boring investigation task."

However, the slap came too fast.

To Tsurumi Torajiro's surprise, Gojo Satoru actually agreed directly.

The reason was that he was also very interested in that urban legend, and he pushed out the original job very naturally and confidently.

Toranojiro widened his eyes in disbelief: How reckless is this guy going to be!Is he a child? He behaves differently every day, without any discipline at all!

On the day of accepting the entrustment, Gojo Satoru approached him with a smile on his face, seeming to be easy to get along with, but the disgust in his tone was palpable: "The old man is so old that his bones are as fragile as a senbei, go back and have a good rest, I didn't I'm interested in working with an old man, and I can handle this by myself."

Afraid that the opponent's [Six Eyes] really found some clues, Tsurumi Toranojiro's face was like a coffin, without flinching: "The brat is more annoying than a son of a bitch, even if it's just to embarrass you, I have to follow go."

Gojo Satoru: ...

Gojo Satoru: "See you again, the dead old man with half of his foot buried in the ground! Don't contact me if you have nothing to do after splitting up."

Toranojiro continued to remain expressionless: "If you wish, you must not cling to the old man like a grandson. I will laugh at you for a year if you show up in front of me when you have nothing to do."

The two, the old and the young, who were both trying to hide the matter of [Guardian God], fought openly and secretly, and they smiled tacitly, and then turned their heads in disgust.

Toranojiro: Hey, I still have to be a sophomore when I'm old, and I have to deal with such a big trouble.

Gojo Satoru: Hey, I'm so tired playing cover, I'm going to make a fuss if Mr. Uno gives me a dozen desserts.

.

The Yokohama area is special. If the conjuration community wants to send people into Yokohama City to investigate, they must first obtain a permit to obtain the assistance of the government agency there, and legally obtain the surveillance in Yokohama City and the identity information of Yokohama residents-even though Tsurumi Toranojiro and Gojo Satoru was not interested in this permission certificate and assistance, after all, they both knew the true identity of [Guardian God].

But the necessary process still has to go.

Now, both of them are secretly trying their best to prevent the other party from finding any clues.

Gojo Satoru has more things to worry about.

Not only did he have to cover up Uo's existence, but he also had to cover up the existence of Otoko Yuta and Kei—these two children were not ready to be exposed to the eyes of the magic world.Although Gojo Satoru despises the high-level people, he has to admit that the high-level connections and control over [Window] are more advantageous, especially Tsurumi Toranojiro's technique is indeed very useful in the investigation.

It will be troublesome if the old man finds a little bit of filthy mana or happens to find it near Bei Ze's house.

Wujo Wu thought to himself.

Torajiro, because of avoiding suspicion, has not had much contact with Uo's current family these years, and he doesn't know much about the family members of Uo's family except Chacha, so subconsciously, he only pays attention to how to hide Uo and Chacha.

Chacha is alright, but what Mr. Uno said... once it appears within the [Six Eyes] field of vision, I'm afraid it will be exposed.

In order to prolong the peace of the Kitazawa family as much as possible, both sides are facing a big enemy.

Then they unanimously informed Kitazawa Uo on the same day.

Gojo Satoru took out his private mobile phone that was anti-eavesdropping and anti-intrusion, and then sent a text message to Chacha.

I also used Morse code on a whim.

After reading ten lines at a glance, Chacha quickly translated into words in her mind, then blinked, turned her head and told her father about the matter.

"Mr. Gojo said that the activity of the [Guardian God] during the melee earlier attracted the attention of the higher-ups. They focused on your healing ability, Dad, and even sent an old man with difficult abilities to investigate your identity and whereabouts. Although Mr. Gojo also I joined the ranks of the investigation, but the person who was traveling with me couldn't be driven away, so let us pay attention recently, and also suggest that Dad, Brother Hui, and Yi Gujun, you all don't go out casually recently... By the way, let me ask you where you still remember Has there ever been a trace of curse power left behind?"

Uo, who had expected it for a long time, was not in a hurry. After the war ended, he opened the [Magic Eye] and walked around the entire Yokohama City. He is 99.99% confident that there is no trace of any filthy mantra.

Then that afternoon, an urgent confidential letter was delivered to Kitazawa's mailbox.

It is also encrypted.

It's just that Chacha can't understand this unheard of encryption method.

Uosheng took it, and then froze slightly.

This is a letter from Tsurumi Toranojiro.

The chaotic word order and graffiti-like interference symbols above are the original encryption method created by Tsurumi Toranojiro, who was only in his teens.

[If you want to become the head of the Tsurumi family in the future, I must at least be the elder of the clan, and be your most trusted confidant. You know, my spells can be used in two ways. They are easy to use in battle, and are also very suitable for investigating secrets. Therefore, there must be a special way of communication between us to convey information. ]

That high-spirited boy back then had bright eyes, and he, who was dressed in a kimono, put his arm around Uo's shoulders with a smile and said so, and then urged the other party to memorize his original encryption method, and said that from now on they will be The secret code of my own people...

Recalling the events of that year, Uogi slightly bent his eyebrows with nostalgia.

Then he looked down at the letter and began to translate slowly. The polite words and expressions in the letter made Uo, who was not used to the change in Toranojiro's personality, sigh a little.

Toranojiro: "Master Uno, during the melee in Yokohama earlier, the activity of the [Guardian God] attracted the attention of the high-level officials. They focused on the [Guardian God]'s healing ability, and even sent a young boy with difficult abilities to investigate you. My identity and whereabouts, I joined the high-level in recent years, and tentatively won this investigation task, but I was arranged to be a companion, and I couldn't refuse. That is a magician from the Wujo family, who inherited the troublesome [Six Eyes ], acting recklessly and uncontrollably, please be more careful and don’t appear in front of the other party. If you can, please leave Yokohama temporarily on the day you receive the letter. Of course, if you are willing to accept my suggestion of moving It's even better..."

The following is a series of new addresses given by Tsurumi Toranojiro, and spent five pages persuading Uo to move, and tried his best to introduce the environment and safety of the new home.

Uo: ... Has Toranojiro become a high-level executive?It's really unexpected.

Uno: Speaking of which, this content seems a bit familiar.

The head of the black-skinned and white-haired curse spirit froze.

After a long while, he raised his head in a daze, and subconsciously looked at Chacha beside him who curiously stood on tiptoe and pulled his arm, curiously questioning the contents of the letter.

"Tea tea."

"What?" The girl with the high ponytail tilted her head.

"Can you...can you repeat Gojo-kun's message?"

"sure."

Chacha recounted it again, and Uosheng held the letter paper, his expression gradually froze.

He stood there silently for a long time before recovering.

...and things suddenly become subtle and comical.

.

After the license was issued, Tsurumi Toranojiro and Gojo Satoru, who were staring at each other for fear that the other would steal away and secretly making tricks, went to Yokohama separately.

The elderly man arrived in Yokohama in a private car driven by the assistant supervisor, holding a cane with a hidden sword.

On the way, he got out of the car, went to a roadside snack shop to buy a box of high-end snacks, and then quietly activated the spell [Mirage] to create a false self and returned to the car, where he was driven away by the assistant supervisor.

After confirming that the car was leaving, the white-haired old man who used magic to hide his figure came out cautiously, looked around, and quickly followed the scheduled route to Kitazawa's house.

Tsurumi Toranojiro didn't want to come to visit Uo, after all, there is a risk of being discovered by Gojo Satoru for such an action, and he shouldn't have put Uo-sama in a dangerous situation because of his feelings and reason.

But——this is an invitation sent by Uo.

The black-skinned and white-haired curse spirit seriously said that he wanted to have a face-to-face talk with Torajiro, and immediately, right away.

And made it clear that you don't have to worry about your own safety.

Toranojiro: It's impossible not to worry, but since Uo-sama asked for it... then the risk can be resolved.

The white-haired old man in formal kimono agreed without hesitation.

He spent a lot of time and energy making a plan to hide his whereabouts. After confirming that Gojo Satoru was dismissed, he held the snack in one hand and nervously grasped the handle of the crutch with the other, and stood hesitantly at the door of Kitazawa's house. He plucked up the courage to ring the doorbell.
