Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

Chuo Ward, Tokyo.

After sending Sonoko home, Kitagawa Taki did not go back directly, but went to the address given by Taichi Tomizawa.

Chuo Ward is a famous wealthy area in Tokyo, and Ginza is its landmark.

"This old man is quite rich!"

Kitagawa Taki looked at the high-end apartment building in front of him.

He entered the old man's house easily.

There was no one in the house, but the owner's luxury could be seen from the decoration.

The flat is over 200 square meters, with three large bedrooms, two of which are ordinary rooms, and only the last one is locked.

Kitagawa Taki violently broke the door lock and pushed open the door. The environment inside was completely different from the modern decoration outside.

The room was filled with quaint decorations. One wall was covered with swords and bows and arrows, another wall was covered with various talismans, and there were several magic wands standing on the ground.

After taking a few glances, Kitagawa Taki couldn't help but feel disappointed, because these things had no spiritual power, which meant that the old man was most likely another fraud.

After a careful inspection, Kitagawa Taki found a modern gadget in the room, a safe hidden behind a decorative painting.

He decided to just sit in the room and wait for the old man to come back.

……

Around 9pm.

Yamamoto Masaki staggered to the door of his house and was about to take out the key to open the door, but found that the door lock was broken and the door was ajar.

He sobered up instantly and thought his house had been robbed, so he rushed into the room where Kitagawa Taki was.

Kitagawa Taki heard the sound, turned on the light, and found that the person who came in was a bald, middle-aged, fat man wearing a suit and glasses. There was no spiritual power fluctuation on his body.

"Who are you?" Yamamoto Masaki took out a pistol and pointed it at Kitagawa Taki and asked loudly.

"Soldier"

Kitagawa Taki made a Vajra Wheel Seal and used his spiritual power to control the gun in Yamamoto Masaki's hand.

Yamamoto Masaki was caught off guard and the pistol slipped out of his hand. After spinning in the air, it landed steadily in Kitagawa Taki's hands.

"You, you are not an ordinary person!"

Yamamoto Masaki was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"Oh? It seems you know something." Kitagawa Taki walked up to Yamamoto Masaki with a gun in his hand.

"Sir... please let me go!" Yamamoto Masaki was about to cry.

He was born into a family of Yin-Yang masters. His grandfather was a famous Yin-Yang master at the time and had magical powers. He had seen it before and had some knowledge of the Nine-Character Mantra and seals, but he had never heard of or seen such a method of controlling objects.

"I didn't say I was going to do anything to you, why are you so scared?" Kitagawa Taki was speechless.

"Where did you get those antiques with evil spirits?"

Yamamoto Masaki's heart sank. After all, they came here for those things.

"Those things were left by my grandfather, and now I have sold them all." Yamamoto Masaki explained everything.

It turned out that he had made a name for himself as an Onmyoji with those antiques, but it wasn't a good name and was only spread secretly. After all, it was a harmful thing.

"Grandfather? Is your grandfather dead?" Although he didn't hold much hope, Kitagawa Taki still asked.

"Dead, died a long time ago." Yamamoto Masaki replied.

"Go open that safe." Kitagawa Taki pointed to the painting on the wall.

Yamamoto Masaki did as he was told and opened the safe. There were two layers inside. On the top was a gun, several magazines, and several passbooks, and on the bottom was an antique wooden box.

There is spiritual power flowing in the box, which can be considered a magical weapon.

Kitagawa Taki first put the gun and magazine into his bracelet, then took out the box and opened it. There was nothing inside.

"This is the box for those antiques." Seeing that Kitagawa Taki was very concerned about the wooden box, Yamamoto Masaki explained.

Kitagawa Taki glanced at Yamamoto Masaki. No wonder this guy, as an ordinary person, was not attacked by the evil spirits. It turned out that he had some magic weapon stored in him.

Beichuan Taki put the wooden box into his bracelet and asked, "Are there any other similar things?"

"No more, just this one." When Yamamoto Masaki saw Kitagawa Taki taking the wooden box away, his heart was bleeding. This was a family heirloom left by his grandfather, and the box itself was worth a lot of money.

"One last question, have you ever met anyone else with magical powers?"

"Yes, yes, no, I haven't seen her, but I heard from my grandfather that there is a witch in the forest of Jianggutian."

Hearing that it was the last question, Yamamoto Masaki was so nervous that he became incoherent.

"Ekoda, forest, witch? What's her name? And her exact location?"

Kitagawa Taki had a strange look on his face. After being in Japan for so long, this was the first time he heard of witches. There were a lot of Onmyojis, exorcists, and shrine maidens.

"No, I don't know." Yamamoto Masaki stuttered.

Beichuan Taki was a little helpless. He didn't know the name and the specific location. How could he find it? He could only go to Jianggutian when he had time.

He took a final glance at Yamamoto Masaki. Although he behaved quite honestly, Kitagawa Taki still broke his neck to be on the safe side.

Anyway, this guy used evil spirits to harm many people, so Kitagawa Taki didn't feel any guilt at all for killing him.

……

Ekota.

Deep in the forest.

Castle basement.

Rows of candles illuminated the dark basement.

"Mirror, mirror, tell me who is the most beautiful woman in the world?"

A girl wearing a black dress and crimson medium-length straight hair stood in front of a huge mirror.

"Of course it's you, Miss Hongzi. All men in the world are Miss Hongzi's captives." The mirror actually made a sound.

"Ahahahaha~"

Hearing this, Koizumi Hongzi couldn't help but let out a devilish laugh.

"With one exception," the mirror added.

Koizumi Hongzi's face turned cold instantly, and she smashed the mirror with the comb in her hand.

"who's that person?"

"it's him."

The figure of a young man appeared on the magic mirror, it was Kitagawa Taki.

"Who is this?"

"do not know."

Koizumi Hongzi almost couldn't help but smash the magic mirror to pieces.

At the same time, a big question mark arose in her mind.

She comes from a magic family and is the legitimate heir of red magic. She is confident that she can capture the hearts of all men in the world with her beauty and magic.

And this man was able to make the magic mirror unaware of his identity, which meant that her magic was ineffective.

"Butler, butler!"

An old man with a hunched back and an ugly face came over and said, "Miss Hongzi, what can I do for you?"

Koizumi Hongzi said: "Go check the identity information of the man above."

"Yes, Miss Hongzi." The butler memorized Kitagawa Taki's appearance, then turned and left the basement.

"I want to see who you are. You can actually make my magic ineffective."

Koizumi Hongzi stared closely at Kitagawa Taki in the magic mirror.
