What era is it? Why are people still writing traditional diaries?

Although these magic beads cannot deal with high-level vengeful spirits, one can scare away a mouse. Now there are three of them at once, and the mouse must have been stunned by my spiritual power.

Next, I will check whether there are any other spiritual power fluctuations in the room due to the stimulation of my spiritual power.

With this thought in mind, Takeda Sanzhi looked towards the location of the mouse, ready to let Gokou Ruri throw the mouse out.

However, the next moment, her eyes met the eyes of the mouse on the cabinet.

She even saw the mouse blink its eyes, as if expressing doubt to her.

Chapter 85: Preparing a Trap

In Takeda Sanzhi's eyes, the mouse was looking at her at this moment, and seemed to be completely unaware of the fluctuation of magic power just now.

Could it be that this mouse is very slow to sense magic power?

Takeda Sanzhi didn't think that his magic power was not enough to deal with even a mouse, so it was obvious that the problem must be with this mouse.

Fortunately, she didn't say anything just now. The girls around her probably didn't understand what she wanted to do. She just had to pretend that she knew nothing.

Takeda Sanzhi didn't want to compete with a mouse, so he closed his eyes and pretended to be sensing something.

"Hmm... The remaining life force in the room is reacting very strongly. It seems that your life force has become stronger than when we met a few days ago. With such a strong life force, it is natural that you are more likely to attract those things than ordinary people. So you'd better be more careful in the future."

Ruri Gokou didn't think too much about it, her attention was all on this Shitamachi goddess.

I used to think that this old woman was a liar, so I was not very polite to her. But later I learned from the mysterious man's diary that she was a real kung fu master, but she became like this because her spiritual power deteriorated with age.

As a middle school student with a second-year syndrome, Gokou Ruri is quite interested in the profession of exorcist. In the past few days, she has secretly used her reading points to practice spiritual power. Although the effect is not very good, it can at least allow her to slightly sense the existence of spiritual power.

Just now, she sensed a spiritual power that was quite "powerful" compared to her own emanating from the hands of the Shitamachi Goddess, and she didn't know when she would be able to reach her level.

On Jerry's side, it felt a completely different style.

Is this old woman provoking me?

Although Jerry had never come into contact with spiritual power before, he just now clearly felt a wonderful energy emanating from the old woman's hands.

This should be the spiritual power that Miyauchi Hikage mentioned to it.

If the ripples are physical energy, then this spiritual power should be some kind of spiritual energy.

It’s a pity that the spiritual power possessed by this old woman is not known. I don’t know if it’s because the energy level is too low or her level is too low. Anyway, this level of spiritual energy is not enough in Jerry’s eyes.

After all, it had seen a substitute made of spiritual energy at Miyauchi Hikage's place these days, and had also learned the traceless extension spell that relied on magic power.

Among its senses, the magic that can easily rewrite space is more magical.

But I heard from Miyauchi Hikage that high-level sorcerers can do a lot of things with spiritual power, so it must be that this old woman is not very skilled.

This level of energy impact feels like a tickle to it.

Jerry thought about it and felt that he should be able to easily study the practice of this kind of spiritual power, and maybe even get some inspiration on how to use magic?

So it prepared to say hello to Takeda Sanzhi and ask him to teach it the power it had just used.

But I didn't expect that the old woman would just close her eyes in front of it, without even looking at it, and even said something like "People with too strong vitality are likely to attract those things around them."

This is pure nonsense. It has been living in Miyauchi Hikage's house for so long, but has never seen a vengeful spirit appear within a hundred meters of Miyauchi Hikage.

On its side, although it does not have as strong vitality as Miyauchi Hikage, it has not encountered any vengeful spirits that are not afraid of it so far, and basically it can only treat them as toys to play with.

So looking at Takeda Mie who was fooling people, Jerry decided to teach him a lesson.

It didn't care that the prime time was still some time away, and immediately ran out of the cabinet, ready to teach the old woman a lesson.

Takeda Sanzhi, who was originally sensing the fluctuation of spiritual power, shuddered subconsciously.

Although he didn't sense any malice, as an exorcist, even though he was old, this reaction was not normal, so Takeda Mie immediately became serious.

I didn't sense any vengeful spirits, so is it really a demon?

Logically speaking, it is difficult for a modern city like Tokyo to give birth to any big monsters. At most, there are some small monsters who like to play pranks. Monsters of this level should not cause her to react like this.

Has there been any new changes recently?

But before Takeda Mie had time to think about it, the lights in the room suddenly dimmed again.

"Why is there a power outage again?" The young Tamaru Gokogen was watching TV with great interest. She was a little unhappy about the power outage again.

Hinata Gogen hugged her sister the moment the power went out, fearing that some monster would appear around and snatch her sister away. However, her body was shaking slightly now, and it was obvious that she was a little scared inside.

It turned out that Gogen Ruri was well prepared. When the power went out, she took out the flashlight she had prepared and brought light back into the living room.

Then she looked at Takeda Mie, who looked serious, and said, "Goddess, have you discovered anything?"

Takeda Mie was a little embarrassed when asked this question.

To be honest, apart from a shiver, I didn't notice anything else.

"Ahem, there are indeed some problems. Take me to the location of the switch. If that monster appears, it will definitely leave traces."

Gokogen Ruri glanced at her sisters and originally wanted to let them continue to stay in the living room and wait for them, but after thinking about it, in order to avoid any accidents, she decided to let her two sisters go out with her.

The group of four quickly walked outside the house and checked the power switch.

Takeda Mie carefully examined the traces near the switch, and this time she made some discoveries.

Around the switch, there were a few rat hairs and traces of rats climbing and biting. Even a relatively hidden rat hole was found.

Considering that rats can move freely in people's homes, it doesn't seem surprising that there is a rat hole near the power switch.

But apart from the traces left by the rats, she didn't find any useful clues.

"Looks like a very cunning guy. It seems I need to make some preparations," Takeda Sanzhi muttered, preparing to use his magic beads to make a spiritual trap nearby to lure the monster.

"Luckily, the guy I'm eating with now has almost everything on him except the exorcist suit, so I don't have to worry about not having enough materials. I'm just worried that the guy won't be fooled." Takeda Mie was quite confident about this, believing that as long as she took it seriously, these little monsters would definitely not be her opponents.

Chapter 86: Sister, there was a very powerful mouse just now!

In order to broaden the horizons of this little girl and Kaguya Shinomiya behind her, and also for his own pension.

Takeda Sanzhi gritted his teeth, took out his tools, and used his stored spiritual power to start setting up a small barrier.

This can be said to be her most powerful trick.

As an exorcist who came from a self-taught background, apart from learning some simple spiritual power applications from her teacher when she was young, if she wanted to master other abilities, she could only rely on her own research.

The barrier technique is a relatively simple trick.

Whether it is a sorcerer, a vengeful spirit, or a monster, almost all of them have their own barrier techniques that use their own power.

When she was young, she had seen some sorcerers use barriers and had fought against the vengeful spirits that controlled the barriers. She spent a lot of time and exchanged experiences with many exorcists before she finally figured out the trick of using spiritual power to construct barriers.

Although the range is a bit small and it is quite different from the barriers she remembers, she is still quite confident now.

What kind of big monster can appear in an ordinary person's home?

What big monster would have nothing better to do than to turn off other people's electricity all day?

It's most likely just the playful nature of a newly formed little monster.

Just give it a little lesson and make it behave as the guardian of this family.

Because she hadn't been so serious for a few years, the Shitamachi Goddess was not very fast in setting up the barrier, and she also needed a lot of auxiliary means, such as setting up several nodes in the room to maintain the existence of the barrier.

"Well, we can use an object with rich spiritual energy as bait to lure out that little monster."

Takeda Mie cautiously took out a piece of jade that didn't look very good. It was one of the rewards she received from the Shinomiya family.

Although it is just an ordinary piece of jade in the eyes of normal people, in the eyes of someone like her who possesses spiritual power, it is much more useful than the magic beads left behind when she was young.

Those magic beads are purely disposable consumables, but this thing is a reusable item that can be put aside and slowly absorb external spiritual power after its spiritual power is consumed.

Even though it has the drawback of needing to be charged for months or even years for a single use, in this era when vengeful spirits are increasing in number and ghosts are reappearing, the efficiency of this thing in absorbing spiritual energy will only become higher and higher.

She had invested a lot of money in using this thing as bait.

If she hadn't hooked up with the little girl from the Shinomiya family, she would probably have just pretended to throw a few magic beads to scare the little monster away.

But now, only by showing his own value can he guarantee his treatment in the Shinomiya family.

That's why she specifically uses this more energy-consuming and complicated method.

If the little girl from the Shinomiya family takes a liking to her skill, then her future pension will be completely secured.

Takeda Sanzhi, who knew the background of the Shinomiya family, thought so.

"Place two more magic beads here, and the entire barrier will be set up." After wiping the sweat from his forehead and completing the final preparations, Takeda Sanzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head and looked at Gokogen Ruri: "Little girl, the trap has been set. We just need to pretend that we know nothing and wait patiently for the little monster to come out on its own."

Gokou Ruri breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she had previously suspected that the other party was a liar, now that the other party had received the comments from the diary owner that he had "some skills" and "could be trusted", her attitude towards the Shitamachi Goddess naturally became much more respectful.

Therefore, she also restrained her middle school personality at this time and became much more ladylike: "I'll make you a cup of tea. You must have worked hard at this time of night."

The Shitamachi Goddess felt the respect from Gokou Ruri and nodded with satisfaction.

"Then let's go to the living room first." She also wanted to find an opportunity to ask from the side how this little girl knew the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family.

She also wanted to know why these seemingly delicate girls, including Kaguya Shinomiya, had such rich life energy?

How come so many talented exorcists suddenly appear?

Could this also be due to changes in the world?

Thinking of this, the Shitamachi Goddess couldn't help but sigh, feeling that she was born fifty years too early.

She shook her head and decided that she should stop thinking about these trivial matters and focus on settling her pension first.

She turned around and looked at the jade.

With these jade stones that can absorb spiritual energy, it seems she can hold on for a few more years before retiring...

Wait, where's the jade?!

Where is my big piece of jade?

Takeda Sanzhi subconsciously let out a sharp cry.

This thing is her most precious thing now. She took it out for less than a minute and said a few words to the little girl Gogen Ruri, how could it disappear in the blink of an eye!

She frantically checked the place where the jade had just been placed and the traps around it, but she was only more devastated to find that many of the magic beads she had previously placed had also disappeared. This discovery completely stunned her.

Just as Gokou Ruri was about to turn around to pour tea for someone, she was also dumbfounded.

Wasn't this Shitamachi Goddess quite confident just now? How come she was so defeated after just two sentences?

Looking at the sweaty Shitamachi Goddess, Gokou Ruri started to get nervous again.

Could it be that the monster that appeared in his home is much more powerful than he thought?

But until now, there has been no danger warning from her diary. Could it be that this function of her diary has not been activated yet?

Gokou Ruri has not yet realized the unreasonableness of this.

Then the next moment, Hinata's exclamation was heard again in the living room. Gokou Ruri's heart suddenly tightened and she hurried to the living room.

"Hinata, Tsumugi, are you okay?"

She hurriedly opened the door to the living room and asked her sister.

Fortunately, it seems that her two sisters are safe and sound at this time.

The older Hinata Gokogen was currently hugging Tamaru, with her eyes tightly closed, looking very frightened.

On the contrary, Zhuxi, who had not yet started school, was in her second sister's arms, staring at her with her big eyes, and seemed not to be afraid at all about what had just happened.

Seeing Gokou Ruri coming over, she showed a happy smile on her face and talked about what she had just seen: "Onee-sama, there was a really amazing little mouse just now!"

She used her hands and feet to gesture what she had just seen.

It took a long time for Gokuru Ruri to understand what her sister was saying.

A yellow mouse walked past them openly, carrying a bunch of things on its back.

Even when Gokou Hinata was frightened and hugged her, the little mouse took out a few small beads and performed a ball-throwing acrobatics in front of her. Finally, it left in a cool manner before Gokou Ruri arrived.
