Promoting Konoha's cup of wine at the Magic College

The vehicle drove bumpily on the small road, driving like a shrinking black spot between the far-reaching and vast blue sky and the endless wheat fields.

"So this is an investigation mission from the Yusan Family?"

When I got on the bus, I was mysteriously stuffed with a lot of information. After scanning the information at a glance, Uchiha Hitomi raised her head and happened to meet Xia Youjie's eyes next to her. They both saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

What are the higher-ups doing? If this is not a regular mission to exorcise curse spirits, then what's the use of young student spellcasters like them? They are not professional detective police.

Moreover.

"If it is related to the Gosan family, why not let Satoru participate? In this regard, Satoru, who is from the Gosan family, knows more than the two of us who were not born in the magic world, right?"

Xia Youjie raised his eyebrows in confusion.

As an auxiliary supervisor in a logistics position, Supervisor Tajikawa did not know much more than the two young conjurers in front of him.

Most of the time, Tianjichuan is only responsible for conveying instructions from his superiors, and has difficulty accessing deeper things. He subconsciously wanted to take a cigarette from his pocket to smoke, but when his hand was empty in his pocket, he remembered that he had followed the doctor's advice and quit smoking for a while.

Tianjichuan was a little embarrassed and took back his hand to cover his lips and coughed: "Because there are many traces of the involvement of curse spirits in these cases, it is best to be solved by conjurers. After all, ordinary people cannot see the curse spirits and spells. There are many people in the conjuring world. Things are contrary to their common sense, and it is difficult to find clues.”

Then he straightened up and looked serious.

"As for the release of the mission, you are all specially designated candidates by the higher-ups. However, I heard that people from the Yusan family seemed to have intervened in the investigation before, but they all died soon. Those who survived were all civilian spellcasters. In fact, it is not difficult to see that the murderer particularly hates the magicians of the Gosan family. This may be the reason why Gojo-san is not allowed to participate in this mission."

Of course, this is just his personal guess.

"The murderer killed 15 magicians from the Gosan family in just two weeks, but he was extremely tolerant of the civilian magicians who were also investigating. He just knocked them unconscious and sent them to a safe area." Hitomi Uchiha said. , "Obviously, the murderer's hatred is not against the conjurer, but he has deep resentment against the Yusan family. Then the murderer is probably from the Yusan family, or is deeply involved with the Yusan family. Didn't the higher-ups investigate in this direction? ?”

"Of course I have thought about it. The investigators at the beginning pointed their suspicions directly at the magician killer who escaped from the Chanyuan family, the famous Tianyu Cursed Chanyuan Shen'er..."

"Chanyuan Shi'er, isn't it Fuhei Shi'er?"

"Ah, it is said that he changed the woman's surname when he got married. Yes, that's right, his name is Fushiguro Shiji now. Why, Uchiha-san knows him?"

Seeing that Hitomi Uchiha looked a little confused, Director Tajikawa asked specifically.

"Ah, of course I know him. After all, I spent a lot of money to support him."

Hitomi Uchiha nodded, not even thinking that he was saying something shocking.

The honest man Tachikawa's pupils are earthquake.

Although, although I heard that Chanyuan Shi'er seemed to be in the business of being a pretty boy after leaving Chanyuan's house, he didn't expect that he would be involved with this newly promoted super conjurer. Could this be some powerful person that he didn't know about? The world!

Tianjichuan was in a trance.

Although to a certain extent, frankness and outspokenness are indeed advantages in interpersonal communication, Xia Youjie still sincerely hopes that the two people around him who have used this advantage too vividly can restrain themselves a little in front of outsiders.

Although they are not embarrassed themselves, they will only be embarrassed by others.

Looking at the auxiliary supervisor who seemed to be shattered, Xia Youjie had no choice but to explain for Tong: "Teacher Supervisor, Hitomi simply signed a training-related agreement with the so-called Fushihe Shi'er..."

"Yes, is that so? Haha." Supervisor Tajikawa stammered and quickly changed the subject, "...Anyway, in the end, Zen, ahem, Fushihei Shiji got rid of the suspicion. He only accepts people with large money transactions. List, don’t want to do it

Bai Gong kills people, and there are no rewards on the black market for those dead Yusanjia magicians, which does not meet his standards. After a close investigation of him, it was found that even the time of the murder did not match up at all, so he can be completely ruled out in this regard. "

I don't want to kill people for nothing, that's really bad.

After turning a corner, the traffic ahead could no longer move forward, so Tianjichuan opened the car door, and the three of them got out of the car and walked zigzag on the path for a while.

"...The murderer is very cunning, and the clues will be lost after that."

During the conversation, the three of them had arrived at the murder scene of the magician who died today.

Large tracts of wheat fields are surging with golden waves, and the fields are filled with the joy of harvest. The high blue sky is connected with the golden wheat fields. The golden sun bakes the golden wheat waves in the fields into a slightly green wheat fragrance.

It is unimaginable that deep in such a simple and beautiful autumn harvest picture there would be a corpse with a miserable appearance.

This is a member of the Zen family Bing. In order not to damage the scene and not be discovered by ordinary people, a special tent was set up around his body, and many relevant people gathered inside the tent to discuss something.

Although Hitomi Uchiha and Xia Youjie have no relevant experience, they can easily feel that the murderer must have a deep hatred for the deceased.

Because the dead magician was not killed with one blow, but was cruelly played with until the last drop of blood was shed.

The account was filled with dark cursed remnants, accompanied by a strong smell of blood.

"This is the remnant of the curse spirit," Xia Youjie released the curse spirit and let the detecting curse spirit sniff around the corpse like a search dog. After a while, he returned to his side and said to the curse spirit operator. A series of unexplained noises, "The murderer left no trace of the curse, and the aura left by the curse spirit that committed the crime showed that it was also dead."

"This is the tricky part of this case." Hitomi Uchiha, who was familiar with the information in the documents, knelt down and opened his Sharingan to check. "It's like this almost every time. There are only the remnants of the cursed spirit at the scene, and The curse that committed the crime has also dissipated, and there is nowhere to find it.”

From the Sharingan's perspective, Uchiha Hitomi saw only disorder and chaos.

Xia Youjie took the cursed spirit back into his body and frowned: "The murderer should have a technique to control the cursed spirit."

Is there any magic technique similar to his? With such a magic technique, why don't you think the murderer should have no name in the magic world?

This case is indeed difficult, and neither the conjurer nor the detectives who cooperate with the conjuring community can advance the clues much further.

"The murderer will only send out a curse spirit to kill the magician, and then immediately destroy the committing magic spirit so that other magicians cannot trace it. However, not being able to see the magic spirit and magic techniques, and not knowing all kinds of inside information in the magic world will also put you at risk. It creates a huge obstacle for ordinary detectives and police officers to investigate the case.”

To put it simply, this mission is really difficult.

After some exchanges with other relevant investigators, Hitomi Uchiha and Xia Youjie decided to divide their forces into two groups to investigate.

Xia Youjie is responsible for finding and subduing the surrounding curse spirits to see if he can get relevant information about the case from the curse spirits' mouths. But the hope is slim, because there are few people around here, even flies are rare, and it is probably even rarer to find a wise curse spirit.

Hitomi Uchiha decided to start with passers-by and directly use the Sharingan genjutsu to explore the memories of ordinary people who passed by the crime scene that day to see if he could find any abnormalities. However, the possibility of this was very small. Again, The place is sparsely populated and there are too few witnesses.

But adhering to the lucky idea of ​​"what if they find a clue", the two of them took action immediately.

The sky gradually darkened, and large swaths of dark clouds drifted in. After taking a breath of the clear water vapor in the air, I felt that even my lungs became wet.

It's going to rain.

Hitomi Uchiha checked the memories of several people living nearby, but found nothing.

The memories of these farmers are filled with information about seeds, weather, fertilizers and various foods. The people living on this land are filled with the joy of an upcoming harvest and have no idea of ​​the abnormalities that have happened in this vast land. .

And Xia Youjie also

Nothing gained. The most advanced curse spirit here is just a third-level curse spirit. It has not yet developed enough wisdom. It can only stare at the wheat in the field stupidly and keep saying: Harvest wheat, it's time to harvest wheat.

After recording the relevant evidence, the conjurer recovered the body of the Bing member and roughly cleaned up the scene.

The remaining dark brown blood stains will be washed away after this rain, completely washing away the smell of the murder, as if there has never been a horrific curse murder here.

This will still be a quiet and peaceful wheat field, quietly growing the joy of harvest.

In the gray sky, the rain finally fell.

The patter of raindrops and the dripping of rain stirred up the chirping of insects and the chirping of frogs. From time to time, a few wet birdsong came from the fields and forests, and the sound of rain was quiet and noisy.

The two people who finally got together were so involved in investigating the case that they forgot to bring an umbrella, and they almost got soaked.

It was a close call because they found a taro leaf growing wildly and vigorously on the edge of a nearby mountain forest.

This kind of leaf is oval and oval in shape. The leaves are wide and thick enough to support a shade. It also has a thick petiole that can be used as an umbrella handle. It is a leaf umbrella that children like to pick and play with.

"I haven't played like this since I grew up."

The crisp sound of rain hitting the leaves has a music-like feel, like the accompaniment of childhood sorrow. This feeling inspired a bit of naughty memory in Hitomi Uchiha. She turned the leaf stalk to spin out the rainwater accumulated on the leaf, causing the rainwater to splash everywhere.

Next to him, Xia Youjie held a leaf umbrella and nimbly avoided Hitomi Uchiha's rain attack: "I see that you haven't grown up much."

"Hey, why do you say that?"

"Hitomi is still very much like a child now."

"That was when Jie had never seen me as a real child," Hitomi Uchiha smiled and caught up with Xia Youjie, walking side by side with him again, "Do you still remember the feeling of using your power just now?"

When you just used your power?

From the moment he discovered that he had awakened the mysterious power, even though the cursed spirit was so ugly, the child with powerful power was still extremely excited, and from then on he set up the goal of protecting the weak in his heart.

Because I am different, I should save others from dire straits.

The feeling at that time was as clear as yesterday.

"Ah, of course I remember." Xia Youjie replied.

Hitomi Uchiha turned her face to him and winked slyly: "Doesn't that feel so good? Do you want to become stronger and master your own power quickly?"

He turned his head slightly to look at her, his eyebrows dim in the rain and fog: "That's right, and I had not yet joined the Conjuration College to study at that time, and I had taken many wrong paths while testing my own spells."

Hitomi Uchiha pretended to sigh: "Me too. At that time, I was not convinced that I clearly had water attribute chakra, but the water escape effect I used was super poor! In order to learn the water attribute ninjutsu, I ran out to feel the rain on a rainy day. , hoping to suddenly have an epiphany and learn water escape instantly, shocking everyone!"

Xia Youjie couldn't help but laugh when he saw Tong Tong's serious expression next to him: "Did it succeed in the end?"

Hitomi Uchiha pouted: "It's impossible to even think about it! In the end, I caught a cold, and my father found out and scolded me."

At that time, Madara, who had rushed back from the task, looked at Hitomi who was so sick and wilted. When he knew the reason, he almost died of anger. While changing her wet towel, he sneered and asked her if she hadn't learned the thunder escape and wanted to find another thunder escape. Give yourself a split.

Xia Youjie laughed muffledly in the rain: "I didn't expect Tong to be so childish sometimes."

Hitomi Uchiha raised her face slightly, and childishly stretched out a hand to catch the rain outside the umbrella: "Everyone may have had many very childish ideas when they were young. And the process of growing up is influenced by the surrounding environment. It affects the process of becoming an adult. In this process, becoming a good person or a bad person depends on both your own character and the surrounding environment."

She thought of Naruto who was like a little sun, and even Hitomi was very surprised that Naruto could still maintain his innocence and sincerity in such a harsh environment for him.

But obviously not all

Everyone is an Uzumaki Naruto, able to maintain his kind nature in an environment full of malice.

"...Are you wondering what kind of person the murderer is?"

Although this thought was very jumpy, Xia Youjie still got Hitomi Uchiha's thoughts.

"That's right," Hitomi Uchiha replied, "Since the efforts to obtain information from the technique have failed, let's try to start from other aspects. What kind of person does Jie think the murderer would be like when he was a child?"

"The murderer is related to the Yusan family. I'm not very familiar with the Yusan family in the magic world. Why don't you refer to Wu Jiao who grew up in the Gojo family?" Xia Youjie began to think.

"Jie, do you really think Satoru has reference value?" Uchiha Hitomi asked seriously.

"Ahem, just to give you an example. But Hitomi, you haven't seen Satoru who just entered school. Satoru at that time still had a little bit of that feeling."

"What do you feel?"

"It's hard to describe, but when you see Satoru for the first time, you will immediately notice that he has an inhuman quality."

Although he turned into a very lively chicken and cat later, when they first met, Gojo Satoru did have an indescribable inhumanity about him. If I had to describe it, he seemed to have no desires and desires, indifference and arrogance. gods.

Hitomi Uchiha raised an eyebrow: "Let me confirm, this is not scolding Satoru, right?"

"...No, it's just that I can't describe it well, but it is indeed very different from ordinary people." Xia Youjie rubbed his eyebrows, "Assuming that the murderer is a member of the Yusan family and grew up in a family of magicians that is isolated from the world, is it What kind of situation would lead to a deep hatred for the family that gave birth to oneself?" He couldn't imagine it.

"I don't know. Why don't I call and ask Satoru later. Well, the auxiliary supervisor said that accommodation has been arranged. It's only two kilometers to the southeast."
