"Oh, having said that..." The dean slowly got up from the chair: "I still keep the bracelet at that time. I wonder if I can find some information about your parents with this."

The broken bracelet was placed in an old small box, perhaps because it was a long time ago, it looked a little tattered.

Early Ji took it, and the broken part of the bracelet looked like someone had cut it with a sharp weapon, neat and smooth.

'Number Ten: Early Long Island, June 6'

tenth?

Also, from this break you can see something tiny, metallic inside, that looks like a... chip.

As if nothing had happened, she smiled with the dean and said that she was a little tired and went to rest. Zaoji held the bracelet in her hand and walked into the room alone. The dagger carefully cut the bracelet.

...It really is a chip.

After taking a photo of the bracelet and the chip, she sent the photo to the head of the intelligence department of the port mafia.

[Zaoji: Takeshita, help me investigate this. 】

[Takeshita: Good lady. 】

Her identity doesn't seem to be as simple as being an orphan.

What does the 'number ten' written on the bracelet mean?

"Old Dean, here I come again!"

A strange male voice suddenly came from the yard. Listening to the conversation between him and the dean and the children's reactions, he should be an acquaintance. Zao Ji didn't pay much attention to it. He just fell on the sofa beside him and closed his eyes to take a rest.

Originally, she just wanted to rest for a while, but after lying there for a long time, Zao Ji fell asleep vaguely. It wasn't until the familiar child called her up to eat that Zao Ji sat up in a daze.

There was an extra blanket on his body, and the sky outside was already getting dark.

She actually slept all afternoon.

"Dean's father, is there someone here this afternoon?"

Zao Ji suddenly remembered the voice of a strange man coming from the yard before she fell asleep, and felt a little puzzled.

Could it be someone who came to adopt?But how could the adopter be so familiar with the dean?Or a well-meaning person who donated?

"Ah, you said Ueda."

"Ueda?"

"Well, he is... probably an intermediary for adopters and orphanages. Many people who want to adopt children don't have time, so they entrust him to come to the orphanage to complete the procedures. There are more than a dozen children in our hospital who are all Found a new home through him."

"Yeah, Uncle Ueda said that he will help Chengmei find new parents next time! And Uncle Ueda will bring us a lot of delicious candy and snacks every time he comes! Sister Zaji, I will share it with you too!"

"Ah, thank you, sister Chengmei."

Zao Ji took the candy from the little girl with a smile, and unwrapped the colorful wrapping paper under the expectant eyes of the other party, but when he saw the contents inside, his smile froze on his face.

"Sister Zaoji, what's the matter? Don't you like this flavor? Then, I have other flavors here!"

"Huh? No." Zao Ji smiled again and raised his hand to touch Chengmei's head: "Because my sister is pregnant with a baby, I don't have a good appetite, and my sister will eat it later."

"Then, then I'll give my favorite candy to Sister Saki's little baby!"

"thank you!"

Early Ji raised her eyebrows and looked at the candy in her hand. The light green hard lump was covered with a layer of strong curse spirit. Even if she just held it in her hand, she could feel the strong malice emanating from it.

Ability, [Ragnarok].

The mantra from all the candies and snacks flew out like fireflies, gathering one by one on the candies in Zao Ji's hands. As the mantra became stronger, Zao Ji's face became colder.

What an intermediary.

"Dean's father."

Zao Ji tried his best to calm down his emotions, so that his expression looked the same as before.

"That Ueda...does he adopt a child today?"

"Well, yes, Sakura and Zhang, it is said that the adopted couple are both lawyers."

It was a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, who will be 8 years old after their birthday this year.

"Then those children who were taken away and adopted by Ueda before, have you been in touch with you since then?"

"Hmm... I also think it's very strange. Those are very sensible children, but after so long, no one has come back to take a look, or send me a message or call me. Ask Ueda, he It is also because many parents who adopted them hoped that their children could bid farewell to the previous life and start a new life or something... Some said they had no time or moved abroad... But occasionally children send me emails Say life is good or something."

"...Is that so?"

This kind of rhetoric is really untenable, and things like emails that cannot prove their identity can't represent anything at all.

What's more, if it is really a well-meaning person who wants to help families adopt children, how can he put these spells on these snacks and candies?Even if it wasn't done deliberately, such a large-scale and widespread phenomenon can prove that at least this Ueda has been with the curse spirit for a long time.

Is it entangled, or... the curser?

Zao Ji's heart felt chills intermittently, bad premonitions rose from the bottom of her heart little by little, she was a little afraid to think about what happened to these children.

"Father Dean, I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back to the hotel to rest, and I'll come back later when I'm free."

"You only ate such a little food, is it okay?"

"Ah, it's okay, I'll buy it again if I'm hungry at night."

"Then you must take care of yourself. Now that you are pregnant again, it is easy to feel uncomfortable. If there is anything you need to help, please tell me in time."

"Well, I know the dean's father, so I'll go first. Goodbye."

Zaoji smiled reluctantly, and when she walked to the door, she looked up and saw two ugly curse spirits leaning on the wall, smiling idiotically and staring at the children eating in the yard.

"whee……"

"You guys, were those brought by Ueda?"

"Huh? Hee...hee..."

"Hee hee hee……"

"Hey, grandma, what a leg."

Zao Ji was so angry that her whole body couldn't help shaking, and for a while, the anger surged and stagnated in her chest, making her breathless.

Many things that the children might encounter flashed through his mind, and Zao Ji's angry eyes turned black one after another.

For two full years, a dozen children.

And during these times, everyone in the orphanage may have been eating these foods wrapped in the disgusting smell of the curse spirit, but she didn't notice it at all.

If she came to visit the orphanage a few more times, if she asked the dean more about the latest situation every time she came, if she was more careful...

I don't know if it's more guilt and remorse, or more anger. The corners of Zao Ji's eyes were red, and she raised her hand angrily when she looked at the two curse spirits who didn't have much wisdom and were still "hee".

"Give it to me, die—!"

The curse spirit dissipated in the wind in an instant, perhaps because of his emotional fluctuations too much, Zao Ji supported the wall beside him with some dizziness, bent down and coughed and retched violently.

How could this be, how could this be.

Where were those children taken?If there is no way to contact the dean, have you lost contact with the outside world, or been locked up, or even...

Zao Ji shook his head, forcing himself to calm down.

It is still not certain that those children were really killed. Although she really wants to rush to that bastard named Ueda to cut him into pieces, but Zaoji knows that doing so will only scare the snake, and even lose those children forever. clue.

Zao Ji took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, got in his car and drove back to the hotel.

When she arrived in the room, she quickly made a video call to Nitrate. The woman on the other end had thick dark circles and a cigarette dangling from her mouth. The background should be her laboratory.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Seeing Zao Ji's complexion a bit uneasy, Nitzi raised his eyebrows strangely: "Is there any discomfort?"

Early Ji shook his head: "No, Nitro, um... I just found snacks and candies wrapped in the breath of curse spirits in the orphanage. I want you to help me see what effect this will have on people... Or, What is contained in this mantra."

She held the thing in her hand in front of the camera, the nitro extinguished the half-burned smoke, and waved the white mist in front of her.

"Mobile phones and cameras can't capture the power and spirit of mantras. What I see here is an ordinary candy in your hand."

"Hey?"

"Well, when you have time, come to the high school and give it to me. If I'm not in the infirmary, I'll be in the laboratory."

"...I'll give it to you now, and check it when you have time."

"Huh? How are you going to give it now..." Niatzi stopped abruptly after she had finished speaking halfway, because just now, the candy that was still on the camera side suddenly appeared on the table in front of her: "...Your strange It's really convenient."

"please!"

"It's not a trivial matter, bring me a pack of cigarettes when you come to the college."

"...Didn't Night Moth advise you to quit smoking?"

"so?"

"I'll bring you Kikufu from Sendai."

"Huh? I don't..."

"Beep beep..."

Early Ji quickly hung up the video, not intending to listen to Nitzi's 'quibbles' and rebuttals, and fell back on the big soft bed behind him.

Reliable Nitzi quickly sent her the test results, with a sentence at the end, "If you bring Xijiufu instead of cigarettes, I will not let you into my laboratory. Throw that thing to Gojo Satoru'.

The magic power on the candy all comes from the same magic spirit, the level is unknown, but Nitzi judges that it will not be lower than the second level at least. These magic powers will only affect ordinary humans. If you are in contact with this kind of magic power for a long time, the magic spirit will It is very likely that the breath of the human body will be integrated into the genes of human beings, and over time... these people will become half-human, half-cursed monsters.

As for more specific things, Nitro could not judge from these spells, but these were enough for Zao Ji to know a lot.

Ueda, Ueda.

Thinking of this name, Zao Ji makes her teeth itch, but Zao Ji clearly knows that she is not good at things like investigation and reasoning. Everyone in the intelligence department is busy with their own work recently, not to mention that if she investigates, she may have to come Tokyo for a long time, such words will definitely delay their work.

As a cadre of the port mafia, she is well aware of the serious consequences of delaying work, ranging from staying up late for three days to a week at worst.

Then, you can only find someone else.

I can come to Tokyo, and my reasoning ability is very strong, I must be able to help her find out the truth of the matter...

Ah, there is.
