I'm the heroine of a love game in a comic book

Ryunosuke Akutagawa doesn't like shrines. He is indifferent to anything supernatural, and now he appears in front of a shrine for no reason.

His first reaction was that he was hit by the enemy's supernatural power, like the leader and the tiger-man had entered "Annie's room" before, which was an alien space power, but Rashomon did not disappear, nor could he cut this space, and even stuck to his face intimately.

After staring at the tall torii for a few seconds, Akutagawa climbed up the stairs angrily.

There were no cold arrows, only blooming cherry blossoms as his companions along the way. Unfortunately, Akutagawa did not have the mood to stop and appreciate the flowers. As he climbed up the roof of the shrine, the back of his neck began to feel hot.

The full picture of the shrine finally appeared before his eyes. It turned out to be the familiar Ise Sanko Daijingu Shrine. Every New Year, he and Xiaoyin would come to this shrine for the first ceremony, ringing bells and praying.

Thinking of this, Akutagawa Ryunosuke's face turned cold again. He usually stood there without saying a word, looking cold and deserted. The ice and snow on the roof of the Winter Shrine were no less beautiful than him. Now Akutagawa's face showed signs of turning blue, which was even worse than the winter snow.

This ability can detect the most important memories in a person's heart. Asking him to return to the shrine that he and Xiaoyin go to every year is to find his weakness.

His neck was getting hotter and hotter. Could it be that someone activated his supernatural power during the battle? Akutagawa Ryunosuke reached out and touched it. There was no wound or bulge. Apart from the unusual fever, everything was normal.

Rashomon was fully activated. Akutagawa Ryunosuke rode the black beast into the shrine. The rooms were shattered one by one. After each room was destroyed, the film was absorbed. A revolving lantern of scenes appeared in front of him, including his and his sister's childhood in the slums, Mr. Dazai, the Hong Kong gangsters, the tiger, and many more.

The owner of this alien space must be trying to find something through his memory. Akutagawa Ryunosuke became more and more anxious. He clearly remembered that they had dealt with the mercenaries and the mission was over.

The shrine was crumbling, leaving only an empty shell. At the same time, too many memories filled his mind. Even someone like Akutagawa who could endure pain couldn't help but gasp, cover his eyes, and half-kneel on the ground.

A hand reached into his brain and picked and chose inside. The image in his memory finally froze on him and Nakajima Atsushi chasing the mercenary David. He dodged David's sneak attack by brushing his neck, and the other party's terrified eyes when he was caught by him.

Following David's eyes, Ryunosuke Akutagawa and the psychic who used his memory and his eyes to search for David finally arrived at the end of the journey.

... "Thought"? It was a simple three-story building, and on the second floor, which was used for office rental, was written "Thought Publishing House".

This is a place that recurs in David's memory.

Rashomon was silently taken back by its owner. He had consumed too much energy today and could no longer use it casually.

He still couldn't open his eyes, and his brain was clamoring for Akutagawa to rest immediately, but the strange space he was in had not been released yet, and Akutagawa would not allow himself to fall asleep and be bullied by others.

He persisted for an unknown amount of time before his eyes finally returned to normal. What he saw was still the shrine that he had torn down. Akutagawa noticed a bloody taste in his mouth, but he was sure that he had no internal injuries today. Where did this smell come from, which was only caused by drinking a bowl of blood?

A faint singing voice came from the distance. Did the enemy finally show up? Akutagawa Ryunosuke's physical strength recovered to 60% to 70%. His steps became light and steady, and he followed the singing all the way to the end.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke wanted to see who dared to drag him into this space.

But when he actually saw the person singing, his expression went blank for a second.

Wearing a white robe, an undergarment and a red hakama, Tsukishiro Yukie is practicing the Kagura dance while holding a cypress fan and singing to the rhythm.

Akutagawa Ryunosuke suddenly realized that there was no memory of Tsukishiro Yukie in the slide show just now.

How could that be? Although he couldn't figure out his own position of Yuecheng Xuejian and was troubled by his constant distraction, he had never thought of erasing Yuecheng Xuejian from his memory.

The fake Yukimi in front of him was extremely annoying, so Akutagawa attacked boldly. The shrine maiden who was practicing on her own had no time to dodge and was strangled by Akutagawa Ryunosuke.

"Who are you?" How dare you use this face to show off in front of me.

"I am the Tsukishiro Yukimi in your memory. I dress like a shrine maiden because the only people who can appear in the shrine are tourists and clergy. If you become a tourist, I will become a shrine maiden. This is the rule."

The miko tried painfully to pry his hands open, but Akutagawa did not move.

"Really? You really are Tsukishiro Yukimi."

The witch nodded.

"Then tell me why you made me drink duck blood vermicelli soup mixed with your blood, and what is wrong with my body."

Tell me about the worried look you tried so hard to hide these past two days, your absent-mindedness when eating in the family restaurant, the way you always looked at my neck, and what you talked about with the old monk alone after dismissing everyone else.

Although I don't understand why I have been staring at you, do you think you hide it well?

The anger of the past two days finally erupted, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke was not used to this change in protective roles.

This is not right. He should be the one protecting Yuecheng Xuejian. He shouldn't make people worry, otherwise he will be despised and abandoned.

"Tell me, what's wrong with my body?"

As he questioned again and again, the witch stopped struggling, her golden eyes dimmed, and a crack appeared in the sky.

The space was shattered.

"Why hasn't he woken up yet? Hasn't he already released 'Thus Have I Heard'?"

"Wait a little longer, he'll wake up soon. Do you really not need to rest? You just lost so much blood..."

Awakening from a deep sleep, before regaining consciousness, Akutagawa Ryunosuke vaguely heard the two people arguing beside him. It was so noisy that he subconsciously shouted,

"Yukimi?"

"Akutagawa-kun, you're awake."

The clean water went into her mouth, dispelling the bloody taste in her mouth. Seeing that Akutagawa Ryunosuke was in good spirits, Xuejian said,

"Nakajima-kun and Jinghua went downstairs to eat. Just now when we were about to interrogate the prisoners, you suddenly fainted. I was scared to death."

In fact, it was far more dangerous than this. Akutagawa Ryunosuke was about to commit suicide using Rashomon. His eyes were dazed and it was obvious that he was controlled by that man's supernatural power. It took a group of people a long time to tie him up.

"By the way, Xianrong just used his supernatural powers to enter your memory in order to find out who plotted against you. You won't be angry, will you?"

Akutagawa paused while drinking water from the cup, so the shrine is Yamazaki's supernatural power.

"I was ambushed, and I got a supernatural power?"

"Well, David was just a bait. He was deliberately used to let us discover that the supernatural power was put on you and Nakajima-kun. All the mercenaries were controlled by the mastermind, and the leader of the mercenaries was killed by that person as soon as he arrived in Japan."

"That ability can control people remotely, it's very powerful."

"Now you know who is behind this," Yukimi nodded, and Akutagawa moved his fingers, "I'm ready, let's go now."
