Chapter 42 The Fox Spirit Has Been Disconnected
When the taxi was about two kilometers away from Shimizu Town, Tachibana Yu received a call from Dr. Hatta Yuto, hurriedly put down the money, got off the bus, found a corner where there was no one, and put a spell on himself to increase speed. He ran to Ryosuke Hugu's house at full speed.

A little more than a minute later, Tachibana Yu arrived at Ryosuke Hugu's house, walked through a path that the crowd spontaneously gave way to Huguhang's room, and saw the souls standing beside the bodies of the three children at a glance.

This reassured Tachibana a lot. Although I don't understand why their souls can't return to their bodies, at least their souls are still fine, and there is no damage at all.

While Tachibana Yu took out the talisman Requiem and pasted it on the souls of the three children, he asked Hu Gu Ryosuke and his wife to tell the story in detail again.

In Zhongzhi Zhumei's somewhat incoherent narration, Tachibana Yu himself took the lead in locking on the target-a piece of paper that Hu Guhang pressed under his body.

Lifting Hu Guhang and taking the opportunity to pull out the paper, Yu Tachibana suddenly understood the reason why the soul came out of his body - this is a piece of paper specially used to play the game of "Nodding Fairy".

Nodding Fairy Game, also known as Fox Goulu Game, is a game of summoning a fox and letting it tell what it wants to know.

The game props include a piece of paper with a picture of a torii gate, a fifty-syllable table, numbers and the words "yes" and "no" written on it, a ten-yuan coin and more than two players.

The game process is to let the player put his index finger on the coin and sing "Please nod the fairy to come, please nod the fairy to come..." After singing together, the fox spirit will come to the player, by manipulating the ten yuan coin way to answer the player's questions.

During the process of asking the fox spirit, there are three questions that cannot be asked: 1. You can’t ask how the fox spirit died and how you became a fox spirit; 2. You can’t bet with the fox spirit; 3. You can’t make an agreement with the fox spirit.

After the inquiry is over, no matter whether they get a satisfactory answer or not, the player must present a piece of their favorite thing as a return gift. The process of gift giving is also a link of "giving the gods". Some punishments are imposed on the players, but most of them are punishments that only lose face, not life.

Fox Spirit's answer, to put it bluntly, is actually a very simple divination on the question asked by the player. The price of divination is the return gift offered by the player. The spirit will take the punishment of the player as a reward for itself.

But now it seems that the souls of the three children have gone out of their bodies, which should be the punishment of the fox spirit.

But what makes Tachibana Yuu strange is why the fox didn't put the souls of the three children back?The Nodding Fairy game is not over yet, where did the fox go halfway?

The fox has existed for many years and has never harmed a human being. It even took the initiative to make an oath of never actively harming human beings. After a long period of investigation, Yinyangliao finally did not ban the game of nodding fairy. Thinking about it this way, I guess what happened in the middle The incident caused the fox to run away halfway.

After finishing his thoughts, Tachibana Yu looked up and saw the parents of the three children looking at him nervously. He quickly told the whole story and said with relief: "Now the game of Nodded Sen is not completely over yet, so the three children cannot Leave this room, but don't worry too much. After 24 hours, even if the fox spirit doesn't come back, the game will end automatically.

And with my spell here, it is guaranteed that the three children will not be harmed in the slightest.Now I will see if I can take the initiative to find the running fox. "

On the pretext that he wanted to perform the method in the room, he invited everyone out of the room and closed the door. The warm smile on Tachibana Yu's face disappeared instantly, and his expression became serious: "For up to six hours, the souls of the three children will not return to the body. , even if you go back later, permanent damage will be left.

But the question now is, where did this fox spirit go? ? "

Tachibana first carefully checked the bodies of the three children and found nothing unusual, then expanded to the surroundings of the children, and finally to the entire room, but found nothing.

Call ~
The night wind blew up the curtains and brought in the cool wind, calming Tachibana Yuu's restless mood.

"Um!?"

Tachibana Yu walked to the window, opened the curtains, and looked at the pattern on the window sill again.

On the window sill, there are more than a dozen arrows drawn in different directions from left to right, which are obviously children's graffiti.

Tachibana Yu touched the arrows one by one with his hands, and found a fox fur that fit perfectly with the red line of the arrow on a "↑" arrow pointing out of the window!

There is no monster or aura on this fox hair, no wonder Tachibana Yuu didn't respond at all when he used spiritual power to detect it just now.

Tachibana Yuu grabbed the fox fur, jumped out of the window to Hu Gu Hang's room on the second floor, and walked straight to the direction indicated by the arrow on the window sill for more than a dozen steps. Sure enough, he found a fox fur on the ground that was exactly the same as the one in his hand. , and went forward dozens of steps, found the third root...
Everything is clear!
Tachibana Yu clenched his fists, sparks of anger flashed in his eyes:

This fox spirit was obviously hunted down, so he used three children whose souls were out of their bodies and could not physically leave the room to attract the attention of the supporters, because such strange things could easily spread around, and then the fox fur was laid down along the way , to point out the escape route for the supporters.

But since you're asking for help, why not pour the demonic power into the fox's fur so that Tachibana Yuu can't find anything?
"Either she forgot, or she is very familiar with the supporter. Even if there is no demon power on the fox fur, the supporter can easily find the signal left by the fox. From this point of view, the supporter that the fox is looking forward to should be It's not an onmyoji like me who suddenly messed up.

Hu Ling did this, it seems that he is very responsible and does not want other onmyojis to be involved in this matter, and his approach is very smart, but in fact he is a bastard. If she can't come back, I will forcefully put these three souls back , It will inevitably leave sequelae for the three children! "

Tachibana Yu ran back, already trying to understand the ins and outs of the whole thing in his mind.

The question now is, as an immortal fantasy monster, why is Hu Ling so afraid of the people/ghosts/demons who chase and kill him?Her oath to the gods is to "never initiate harm to a human being," but that doesn't mean she can't fight back when attacked.

Putting the fox fur back to its original position, Tachibana Yu told the parents of the three children what he had discovered, and told them to wait at home with peace of mind, then quickly followed the fox fur left on the ground.

Tomie's avatar, who had been silently following Tachibana Yu in the dark, followed.

A few minutes later, a petite figure jumped into Hu Guhang's room from the window. After sweeping his eyes, he quickly found the arrow and fox fur on the window sill indicating the direction. He muttered "stinky fox" and followed him away. .

He just opened the door and came in. Dr. Hatta Yuto, who brought equipment from the clinic and prepared to monitor the vital signs of the three children at all times, was dazed. He could only see a petite figure in a nun's robe and twin ponytails running down in a hurry. Go to the window and look, where is there any figure in the silent shadow?
Scratching what little hair was left, Doctor Hatta put the charm left by Tachibana Yu on the four corners of the room, and the focus was naturally on the window.
