After I entered the Otome game, I became the head of the temple

"It's too much! Why did you leave me to do the task again!"

Gojo Satoru's shout came from the phone.

I sat on the railing and ate my hamburger. Xia Youjie leaned next to me and explained to the angry cat at home helplessly with his mobile phone: "After all, this is the task of the Zenyuan family. Wu should wait at home for us to come back."

The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a while: "Then you must remember to bring me some special products!"

"Well, I will definitely bring it to you." Xia Youjie responded and hung up the phone. He opened the can with his left hand and handed it to me: "What shall we do now?"

I took the drink in his hand, took a sip and swallowed the food in my mouth: "Of course we have to eat first. After eating, let's go directly to Yuanyi. He seems to be nearby."

Xia Youjie nodded, and did not have much objection to this decision.

I tilted my head and stared at him: "Wu is losing his temper again?"

The boy with no expression closed his eyes, recalling the tone of his friend on the phone, he seemed to be able to show the angry look in front of his eyes, he couldn't help laughing: "Yeah, I'm saying again that we won't take him out to play , I’ll bring him Yokohama’s specialties when I go back.”

"It's as if we didn't bring special products home." I said sullenly, lowering my head and biting the hamburger in my hand.

The effect of shadow magic is really convenient, in addition to stuffing weapons and food in the shadow.

Xia Youjie took out the napkin, and stretched out his hand to wipe off the sauce on the corner of my mouth: "Naozai, Sachiko, and Inuyasha's specialties should be bought too. Have you thought about what to buy?"

"More than that!" I hurriedly swallowed the hamburger in my mouth, raised my hand and counted, and said, "There are also Brother Jingguang, Brother Zhenping, Brother Yan, and Hayato... If you count it like this, I might as well find a store to buy them all." Send it to the Zenyuan home, and you can also send some gifts to the members of our magic and special affairs department, oh! Brother's gift has to be chosen separately!"

"Shiel?"

"Well, that's right! I'm thinking about whether to buy another spell tool for him. I feel a little wronged by using You Yun all the time."

"Are you going to spend money with Naoya to buy special magic tools again?"

"I have plenty of money on hand now, so I can easily buy a special magic tool!"

I followed Ji Guoyuanyi's trail to find him.

In a dilapidated house on the street of a slum, a samurai with a high ponytail is sitting in the house and waiting quietly. At his feet is a strange man who is tied up.

Xia Youjie walked in front of me and gently opened the door.

The door made a fragile sound, and it didn't look very strong.

I walked behind the boy and looked at the house, and unexpectedly found that the only window in the house was sealed from the inside, and after entering the room, a stench came over my face, which made me and Xia Youjie exposed. Unacceptable expression.

The stench of blood, and rancidity.

"Makoto, this is a ghost." Ji Guoyuan looked at the man on the ground whose limbs were bound and his mouth was gagged: "Although it is not the same as the ghost in my memory, he does have a similar smell, and he also Feed on humans."

I:"……"

Xia Youjie subconsciously protected me behind him, staring at the man with red eyes: "This is... a ghost?"

Although Makoto had heard it mentioned before, this was the first time he had seen a real ghost.

"Yes, I found this thing in the room." Ji Guoyuan stood up and handed me the thing he had been clutching in his hand: "Fortunately, his human consciousness is still there and he can communicate. It is the potion that he bought from others to enhance his physique."

What he handed me was a small vial of red liquid.

Through the glass bottle, the liquid inside exudes a bright luster, which looks very beautiful from the outside, but...doesn't look like a serious medicine?

The bound person on the ground suddenly struggled unbearably.

The man's body was arched, moving his body like a caterpillar and approaching me, the mouth blocked by the foreign object secreted too much saliva and flowed down his chin.

"Real piano!"

Xia Youjie immediately pulled me back, and a one-eyed curse spirit was released by him to block us.

Ji Guoyuan frowned slightly, and pressed hard on the man's neck with the scabbard in his hand.

"Go any further, and I'll cut off your head right now."

"Uh... woo...!"

I patted Xia Youjie's tense shoulder: "What is he talking about? Why don't you take the thing out of his mouth and see if you can ask me more about this medicine?"

"I don't agree, it's too dangerous." Xia Youjie didn't agree with my decision, he stared at the man who was still squirming on the ground, the guy's eyes looking at people - it has completely become the eyes of a hungry man staring at food .

Ji Guoyuan was silent for a while: "I tried it before you came, but he didn't know the source of this medicine, and the person who gave him the medicine often changed his identity, and he didn't know him either."

"...There is always something in common, right?"

I came out from behind Xia Youjie and squatted in front of that man.

Seeing me approaching, his red pupils constricted instantly, and he writhed excitedly even with the knife on his neck.

It was as if a dog saw the food and kept drooling.

"Do you want to eat me that much?"

"Or have you been hungry for a long time and haven't eaten?"

This guy has been in a bad mood since he saw Jie and me. Thinking back to the ghost I met for the first time, I suddenly had a direction in my mind: "...you like to eat people with special abilities, right?"

Me: Everything, test the ingredients in the medicine.

System: [Okay, give me 3 minutes! 】

"...There's no way to answer this way." I pulled out the sun wheel knife from my shadow, and took out the thing in the man's mouth with the other hand.

"!"

"Makoto!?"

The sword of the Rilun Dao pierced the ghost's mouth, and there was a scream of pain in my ears. I calmly watched the guy who looked like a ghost in front of me cry heart-piercingly.

"Are you a little more sober?" I stared intently at his ferocious face, and asked with a smile, "Answer my question first, how many people did you eat, and are there any supernatural beings among them?"

The man with the injured mouth looked at me in fear, and then at the boy with indifferent eyes behind me.

Although the two young men in the room are very fragrant, he also knows that his strength is very weak, and it is impossible to beat them.

"Just, I ate two..."

Although his mouth was injured, it didn't seem to affect his speech.

"I was too weak in the slums. I couldn't grab or fight... I fell ill very quickly. Just when I thought I was going to die, someone told me that there was a special medicine that could change my fate."

Xia Youjie lowered his eyes, his expression indifferent: "Do you know what medicine you are taking?"

"No, I don't know..."

"You don't know any medicine, but you dare to take it?"

"Because... because I was going to die at that time! How could I think so much... I just... I just want to live! Is there anything wrong with that?!"

Xia Youjie couldn't help but look away and didn't speak again.

"Okay, I'm not listening to you to express your emotions." I shook the knife in my hand and signaled him: "Continue talking."

"After taking that medicine, my illness was cured immediately, and my strength was stronger than before." The man lowered his head, his body trembling slightly: "But a bottle of medicine can only last for two days, and I fell ill again after the effect of the medicine ended. I got sick... and the disease was more serious than before, and then the medicine seller came to deliver medicine to me again, he said that this medicine should be taken for a long time, and after a course of treatment, I will be completely reborn."

Ji Guoyuan frowned: "You haven't told me this."

The man turned his head and looked at him in fear. He looked back and muttered softly, "You didn't ask..."

"Then when did you want to eat people?" I tapped the man's head with the blade of the knife: "Hurry up."

"One course of treatment is ten bottles of potions... After drinking the seventh bottle... no, it should be the sixth bottle, I feel a little strange. My sense of taste began to change. I felt that the taste became very weak when I ate normal food. The smell of blood will feel very fragrant and can arouse the appetite. In fact, I resisted cannibalism at first, after all, I am human, but that girl that day was too much!"

Not knowing what he thought of, he gritted his teeth.

The stretched blue veins can be easily seen on the skin of the forehead.

"Even the sheep organization can't steal things so arrogantly! After I woke up, I had already killed someone... That was the first time I ate such a delicious thing..."

As he said that, the man's face drooled again.

While crying, he continued: "I also later found that I have a greater appetite for supernatural beings. There used to be a ghost on this street, but because we ate sheep, the leader of the sheep was recruited... that guy is too strong It's gone! Even if we become like this, we can't beat him at all!"

Xia Youjie, the only person who had fought with Zhongyuan Zhongye, suddenly remembered something and looked at the guy on the ground in surprise: "You were discovered by that guy, and you are not dead?"

"No..." The man's voice gradually weakened: "My fighting ability is very weak, but I can still run very fast..."

System: [The composition of the potion has been found out, it contains a very small amount of the ghost king's blood, and there are other things in it that cannot be analyzed.This medicine should have been specially modified to allow people to slowly transform into ghosts. 】

I sighed: "The person who delivered you the medicine, how much do you remember? Or is there anything in common between them?"

"..." The man leaned his head on the ground and thought hard for a long time: "Yes, we have something in common!"

"What is it?"

"They all have the same cloak on them, and I pulled one of the buttons off when I was arresting someone... It's in the drawer of the desk."

Xia Youjie turned his head to look at the crude wooden table beside him, he went up to open the drawer and looked through it.

A gold button inlaid with February orchid patterns was picked up by him.

Xia Youjie thought it looked familiar, but he couldn't tell where he had seen this similar pattern. He handed the button to me while thinking.

"Have you seen this?"

"No, probably not..."

I thought about it, then took out my mobile phone and took two photos of the button and sent them to the Sasaki brothers to let them investigate where the button came from.Since everyone who comes to deliver medicine has such buttons on their clothes, this pattern should be a representative symbol of a certain organization.

As long as you know where this button comes from and who it is sold to, you can naturally find the guy who made this ghost king's blood into a potion and tricked it into ordinary people.

Me: Is it still the guy named Suo from before?

System: [... His name is Yan Suo, he is a big villain who has lived for a thousand years, please respect his name a little bit? 】

Me: Oh, so is it him?

System: [Currently there are not many clues, so I am not sure, but the person who has the blood of the ghost king is very likely to be him. 】

When Xia Youjie and I came out of the house, we received a serial call from someone.

"Brother Zhenping?" I yelled through the phone in doubt, and then I heard the roar of this brother from the phone. I took the phone away in disgust and waited for the sound to die down before moving to Ear: "Jie and I are both...not running around, the bastard tied up over there is a human trafficker, you can arrest it normally, and then ask for some compensation for the children...Hmm, that's my signal here If it’s not too good, hang up first!”

I pretended that the signal was not good and cut off the phone when the other party then asked me where I was.

Xia Youjie was gloating at the side: "When you hang up the phone like this, be careful when you get back, Brother Ping is going to beat you."

"Second Brother Yan is here, so I'm not afraid." I couldn't help smiling, and looked at him: "Even if he wanted to hit him, he would hit both of us, how could he just hit me."

"..."

"So don't even think about running away alone."
