There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

"It's impossible to find any clues." Li Nian turned to Nura Rikuo: "Does the Nura Group know anything?"

"What does the next thing have to do with you?" Kurodafang said with a sneer, "Why, an exorcist would care about the life and death of us monsters?"

"Kurodabo."

Nura Rikuo immediately spoke up to stop him, and Kurodabo simply shut up. But Ushioki spoke again, his tone polite but cold: "What happens next is the family affair of the Nura Group. Please take the police officers away, Master."

What they said was all reasonable. From the perspective of the Nura Clan, there was no need to share information with outsiders, and they had no intention of asking for help from exorcists on this matter.

Originally, the Nura Group had never gotten along well with the Exorcists. Even though the Nura Group's principles in recent years have been very gentle and they have made many efforts to integrate into the society, their relationship with the Exorcists is still not good. At most, they keep to themselves.

The two members of the Nura group are now filled with anger.

If someone from their Nura group was killed, it means that the entire group was seriously challenged and it is up to the Nura group to get revenge. This is the principle of justice in the monster underworld. They are the cadres of the Nura group and have already begun to plan how to find the enemy and then destroy it with overwhelming force.

Although they couldn't find any clues about the enemy at the moment, they were not without any ideas... It's just that the two of them felt that this had nothing to do with the Exorcist. Seeing Li Nian and Dalian Temple staying here, they found them an eyesore.

Dalian Temple also understood this, and felt that the fight between monsters had nothing to do with the exorcist, and that her presence at the scene was just official business, and it was none of her business now.

Li Nian didn't say anything to them, but just looked at Nura Rikuo who seemed to be thinking about something, and asked directly.

"Do you think it has anything to do with Yuyuko?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the name.

Nura Rikuo nodded, confirming what Li Nian said.

This is the logical inference.

After Yuyuko broke the seal and regrouped her forces, she has sent cadres to Chiba to cause trouble several times. Although they were stopped by someone, their target is indeed the Nura clan. The hostility of Yuyuko towards the Nura clan after her resurrection is evident. After all, she was sealed in the past as a result of the joint efforts of the first generation Nura Nagaragi and the exorcist of the time.

Now that the group under the Nura group has been destroyed, from the perspective of the Nura group, they would think that it was Yuyuko who did it, which is natural and logical.

Li Nian thought so too. He also understood that since it was an organization under the Nura Group that was destroyed, it was their family affair - but if it was really related to Yuyuko, then he, who had been attacked several times, might be implicated again, or he might even be one of the targets... Taking these into consideration, Li Nian could not sit idly by.

Dalian Temple, who knew the grudge between Li Nian and Yuyuko, also figured out the connection and understood why Li Nian was so concerned about it.

"But I find it a little strange." Nura Rikuo changed the subject, seeming to have some doubts about this logical inference.

"How to say?"

"…I don't quite understand why the murderer had to erase his tracks."

"...Of course you're afraid that your Nura Clan will find out who did it?"

"Killing my Nura Clan members is like declaring war on my Nura Clan."

Nura Rikuo's words made Dalianji shudder, because he suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation.

Feathered Fox declares war on Nura Clan?

This is a major event. The two giants of the monsters and their forces are really going to war...

Li Nian didn't feel anything yet.

"Is there anything strange about this?"

Dalian Temple couldn't help but speak out.

"That would have huge consequences!"

There have been personal grudges between Yuyuko and the Nura clan from the past, and there is a high possibility that the conflict will escalate into an intense stage, but possibility is only a possibility after all. Without a falling out, the conflict will not escalate to a new stage.

If they really tear each other apart, the conflict escalates, and turns into a war between the two major forces, then the war will definitely not be just between the two organizations, but will drag the entire monster group and the exorcists into it. The impact on real society is even more immeasurable. It is impossible to imagine what it will turn into in the end...

Nura Rikuo glanced at her and shook his head.

"If it was Yuyuko, it wouldn't be surprising if she used this incident as an excuse to go to war with my Nura Clan. My grandfather is an old acquaintance of hers, and I know how he acts on impulse. He won't care about what happens to you."

"Then, this should be done by her..."

"That's why it's strange. If Yuyuko really wanted to go to war with our Nura Clan, then she shouldn't have been hiding it."

Chapter 219 New Intelligence

Li Nian thought about it and felt that there was some truth in it, but he still shook his head and said, "Maybe not. We have to wait and see."

Nura Rikuo spoke with certainty. It was obvious that as the head of the Nura Group, he had his own ideas and judgments. Li Nian felt that what he said made sense, but after all, he didn't know who Yuyuko was. He wouldn't make a rash judgment without having seen her in person or dealt with her.

What's more, when Kidomaru came here, he instigated the old Rat Group under the Nura Group to rebel, and his methods were not fair at all.

In the final analysis, the current intelligence is not serious enough, and it is not enough to support them to discuss a conclusion here.

"That's true... We need to investigate further. Whether it was Yuyuko who did it is another matter." Nura Rikuo said, and then laughed at himself: "My Nura team is conservative and has a peaceful attitude, but after all, a big tree attracts the wind, and Yuyuko is not the only enemy."

It's not that the possibility of an opponent attacking the Nura group is unimaginable, but there are too many possibilities, and it can only be said that Yuyuko is just one of them.

"Gyu-oki." Nura Rikuo said to the old man in kimono without even turning his head: "Pass the message on and tell everyone below to be careful and alert. This time it was the baboon group, but who knows who it will be next time."

"Yes!" Niu Gui nodded and disappeared in an instant.

"If it wasn't Yuyuko who did it, then it's fine, but if it was..." Nura Rikuo turned to Li Nian and said with a smile: "Then Mr. Li has to be careful..."

"Don't worry about that, Sandaime."

"I think so too. It's just that Yuyuko has been making trouble several times and is willing to send several cadres. The ultimate purpose is undoubtedly to attack our Nura group, but in the end they were stopped by you..."

Kuroda Fang listened to the conversation between the two and felt more and more that something was wrong. When he heard this, he was shocked and stared at Li Nian.

Three of Yuyuko's generals died in Chiba. I heard that it was done by an exorcist, but there was no news about who it was. Now, from what the young master said, the exorcist was actually this guy?

Kuroda Fang couldn't help but grab his right hand which was still aching. He and Li Nian had only fought once, but the terrifying power that erupted in that instant...

Kuroda Fang did not interrupt the conversation between the two. After losing his composure for a moment, he immediately lowered his head and closed his eyes to rest.

"I'm just afraid that Mr. Li will be implicated again this time." Nura Rikuo continued, hinting, "I've been inexplicably saved from disaster by exorcists several times. It would be hypocritical to say that I don't feel lucky, but my Nura team is also embarrassed, so as compensation, I will tell you Mr. Li whenever I receive any news in the future - of course, if Mr. Li finds anything, please notify me as soon as possible. If you need any help, just let me know... Don't take it as a courtesy. My Nura team is not the kind of people who will forget the favors they owe to others."

Exchanging information is indeed what Li Nian needs, but from the perspective of an exorcist, it is difficult for Li Nian to ask the commander-in-chief of the Nura group for information. It would be quite helpful if Nura Rikuo could say it himself.

However, as Nura Rikuo said this, it seemed that he had forgotten that Li Nian owed him a life.

Li Nian himself remembered that he just said, "Okay."

"Well now, I will tell you a piece of news, which is the information about the feathered fox you care about."

"Oh?" Li Nian became interested.

"——I heard that she has recovered from her weakened state after being sealed for so many years and has gathered her old subordinates."

"..."

Li Nian was not surprised by this. It was unexpected that such a long time had passed and Yuyuko had not completed its reorganization. However, after hearing what Nura Rikuo said, it proved that the Onmyoji Agency had not successfully struck a blow against Yuyuko's power - it seemed that Minister Tenruo had said that he would wipe out Yuyuko, but there was no news, which meant that he had not done it at all.

Li Nian didn't have much information in the industry, but when he recalled the olive branch they extended to him when he was attacked by two monsters before, saying that Yuyuko needed talents and wanted to build his own world, he knew that Yuyuko's recruitment with this slogan was probably very effective during this period, and it was estimated that it had recruited a motley crew of rubbish. If this assumption was correct, did it mean that the situation had developed to this point, and Yuyuko's entire force was no longer easy to handle, and even the Onmyoji Bureau couldn't wipe it out in one go, and it had become a difficult situation?

Li Nian sneered, but he was not disappointed or flustered. At this point, he felt that people should not seek help from outsiders. It is a skill to be good at using things, but the most trustworthy thing is always the strength that comes from oneself, so he did not expect too much from outsiders.

"So what? Now that you've recovered from your injuries, you should jump out and cause trouble?"

"That's definitely going to cause trouble. My intelligence also tells me that Yuyuko has changed her domineering nature recently and is visiting various monster forces. It seems that she is planning something." Nura Rikuo said bluntly: "And in a few days, the young master of the Shikoku 88 Demon Night Parade will come to visit me. He said he has something important to discuss. For many years, we have only had superficial exchanges of feelings. A sudden visit? To discuss something? If I'm not mistaken, this is what the real relationship with Yuyuko is. We will know what she wants to plan by then."

"Commander-in-Chief..." Kuroda Fang didn't expect that this matter would be revealed, so he hesitated to speak.

Nura Rikuo waved his hand and said, "Mr. Li needs news, so I will give him the news."

He turned around and smiled at Dalian Temple, whose eyes were rolling, "It's just a visit. We are all decent people, there is nothing to be ashamed of. I also hope that [Prodigy] knows that our Nura Group is a serious business organization. We will be dealing with each other as classmates in the future, and I don't want to be misunderstood as a dangerous person."

Dalianji sneered.

"We have already investigated to this extent..."

"Please give me more advice in the future, Dalian Temple classmate."

Dalianji suddenly changed his arrogant expression, smiled sweetly, put his hands on his abdomen, and saluted Nura Rikuo solemnly.

"I am the one who should ask for your advice, Nura-senpai." She blinked her eyes and tapped her lips. The atmosphere and expression changed instantly. She became sweet and lovely, and her voice was soft and sticky: "I will use these eyes to confirm whether the senior is a serious person~~"

"You will know that, like Isayama-senpai, our Nura team welcomes Miss Dairenji to inspect at any time."

The two of them smiled at each other for a while, then turned to look at Li Nian at the same time.

On the other side, Li Nian was still thinking about the information given by Nura Rikuo, which said that Yuyuko visited various monster forces. He was wondering what she was doing and did not listen carefully to the information conveyed in the conversation between the two guys.

Li Nian felt that he could not figure out the reason and would need to wait for intelligence to find out. So he decided to be careful and stopped thinking about it meaninglessly. When he came to his senses, he found that the two men were looking at him, a little confused, and tilted their heads.

"Excuse me, I was thinking about what you just said."

Dalian Temple was stunned, but he smiled playfully and said, "I didn't say anything~~, it's not important."

Why is this guy a bit weird... It seems like he has been like this since he saw me. Li Nian didn't care.

Nura Rikuo looked helpless and just shrugged, too lazy to say it again, thinking that Li Nian would know it sooner or later anyway.

Suddenly Nura Rikuo's face became serious and he said in a cold voice.

"Well, now that we have said what we need to say, please Mr. Li and Ms. Dalianji give us some face and take the police officers away, because what is going to happen next is the family affair of our Nura Group."

Chapter 220: The Attack of Ueigagusa

Li Nian and Dalian Temple exchanged glances and confirmed that both sides had no objection to this.

Up to now, there has indeed been no evidence of the two exorcists, and it has been confirmed that the dead are all monsters, there are no human corpses, and it is an organization under the Nura Group that has been destroyed, so it is reasonable for the Nura Group to want to take over.

However, even though the Nura clan was involved and there were no human casualties or spiritual disasters, it was a family massacre after all, and there might not be no subsequent impact on society. Was it in accordance with the rules to just let the police leave the scene?... Li Nian didn't quite understand this. Official dealings with officials like him were not the job of an independent exorcist like him who had just accepted a commission to help.

Fortunately, Dalian Temple was not vague and took the initiative to find Officer Takasaka. It seems that the national first-level exorcist still has a lot of say in such matters. After only two or three words, Officer Takasaka nodded, turned around and began to arrange the evacuation of the police officers.

Dalianji turned back here and saluted Nura Rikuo: "Everything has been arranged. The next thing will be handled by the Nura Group as you wish. I will take my leave first."

The girl turned to Li Nian and smiled, "See you soon, senior~."

After saying that, she threw out a talisman, which turned into a lifelike black eagle. The girl jumped lightly onto the back of the black eagle. Under the gaze of everyone, the child prodigy rode on the shikigami and left the scene.

Li Nian didn't know how he deserved to be called a senior by this "prodigy" who was one of the twelve generals. But he didn't think much about it, shook his head, and realized that there was no need for him to stay any longer. He turned around and clasped his fists to Nura Rikuo: "Then I'll take my leave too."

"Sorry, I wanted to have a drink with you, but it seems I don't have the time to do so recently."

"Don't worry about it. We can talk about it later." Li Nian glanced behind Nura Rikuo and saw the young man who survived the Great Ape Club walking out of the house in a daze. He narrowed his eyes and continued, "I also hope that the Nura Group can find the murderer as soon as possible... Then, we'll see each other again if we're lucky."

"Goodbye."

Li Nian's figure suddenly disappeared.

After confirming that he had left, Kurodabo finally couldn't help but ask Nura Rikuo a question.

"Commander-in-Chief, this is the one who dealt with Kidomaru and the others..."

"That's right. How do you feel after fighting with him?"

“…It is indeed very strong.”

"But he shouldn't be an enemy of our Nura Clan... Rather, we could be friends. So, I hope Kurodabo won't have any prejudice against him."

"...I understand."

"Don't make Li Nian's affairs public. This is his own wish."

After saying that, Nura Rikuo walked towards the distraught young man.

As the commander-in-chief of the Nura clan, he now has a lot of things to deal with.

……

……

When I returned to Sakurasou, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. I felt fine physically, but a little tired mentally.

Only after returning to her room and sinking into the soft computer chair did she feel relaxed. Li Nian threw her schoolbag on the table and prepared to close her eyes and take a nap.

A few sheets of printed paper spilled out of his schoolbag, which caught his attention again and reminded him of his previous conversation with editor Machida. He remembered that it was not time to relax yet, as he still had to discuss the copyright aspect of his novel contract with senior Ren and senior Kamiigusa.

There is also the matter of submitting a revised draft plan, which is equivalent to writing a new work plan...

And if the game project in Aki starts, I will have to write a script...

...Strange, will I suddenly be extremely busy later?

Li Nian felt exhausted just thinking about it and couldn't help but sigh. He pinched his nose to calm down, then stood up and went out of the room to discuss the contract with Senior Ren first.

When I walked to the door of Ren's room, I discovered with my keen perception that there was only one presence in the room. It was not Senior Ren, but Kamiigusa. It seemed that the humanoid self-propelled artillery was still in some woman's bed and had not returned yet.

It wouldn't hurt to find Senior Igusa first, although I don't know why she is in Senior Ren's room. Even if they are childhood sweethearts, this is considered illegal intrusion... But if it was that Misaki Uegusa, Li Nian would not be surprised at all.
