For Fangzheng, if he wanted to stay in a place for a long time, he would buy a house. On one hand, this was a Chinese habit. On the other hand, having one's own place was more comfortable than staying in a hotel. His doppelgangers naturally had the same habit. After Dusk's investigation, she found that Kyoto was indeed a good place for health, so she decided to buy a house here.
As for the matter of buying a house … she naturally left it to the Misty Branch of the Sea.
This made the Misty Branch of the Sea very angry, but what could she do? If she wanted to protest, Dusk would just glance at her, hook her finger, and extend her tentacles. The next moment, the Misty Branch of the Sea would kneel down.
Although the Misty Branch of the Sea had a mansion of her own, Dusk was not interested in it, so there was nothing she could do.
As for Dusk, she returned to her work.
The commission this time was quite interesting for Dusk.
"Looking for a doll?"
Dusk looked at the middle-aged man in a suit with interest. Judging from the way he dressed, the man should be a successful person. But now, his face was haggard, his eyes were dull, and he was frowning. According to Sanako Hara's introduction, the man originally had a happy family, but not long ago, his daughter mysteriously disappeared while participating in the school's summer training. Although he had called the police to search for her at the time, there was no result.
The purpose of his commission this time was not to find his daughter, but … to find a doll.
"Yes."
Facing Dusk's curious gaze, the man nodded slightly.
"The day after my daughter disappeared, I went to the school to look for clues. At that time, a girl from the art department told me that when my daughter disappeared, she saw a strange doll nearby. Although the police and the school think that it has nothing to do with my daughter's disappearance, I think that doll is my daughter. "
"Where's the doll?"
"I don't know when it disappeared …"
"Hmm … So you think your daughter has become a doll …"
Hearing the middle-aged man's answer, Dusk stared at the drawing paper he had taken out. What was drawn on it was a very ordinary doll model. From its appearance, it looked like a simple doll frame made of spherical joints. It did not even have hair or clothes. However, it was indeed suspicious for such a puppet to appear in the wild.
"I'll investigate."
Since they had nothing better to do, Si quickly gave an answer.
For Yu, sneaking into a school was a simple matter. As long as she wore her school uniform and swaggered into the school, almost no one would suspect her identity.
She thought that she might waste some time, but she didn't expect to see a familiar figure when she walked into the library.
Not to mention anything else, Bao Bao's ponytail hairstyle was too unique. It was impossible to mistake it.
Under Si's watchful gaze, the young lady hugged a book and sat down beside another young man. Then, she swept a glance at him and said in a low voice.
"I advise you not to get too close to that girl."
Hearing the girl's sudden words, the young man beside her couldn't help but be taken aback, while the girl looked at him with a smile.
"If you want eternal life, I can give it to you. The way to live forever while maintaining your current appearance … I also know. "
However, when the young man heard the girl's words, he turned around without a care in the world.
"That kind of thing is fine no matter what."
Hearing the young man's answer, the girl seemed to be insulted. She frowned and stared at the young man sternly.
"That woman doesn't know what eternal beauty is."
But in the face of the girl's rebuttal, the young man silently closed his book and stood up.
"I don't know what you know. The promise is just an excuse to meet. I … like her. I love her, and she's the only one I desire. Even if … she doesn't belong to this world, it doesn't matter. "
After saying this, the young man turned around and left without looking at the girl. The girl lowered her head, clenched her fists, and whispered to herself.
"Love her? Humans … love gods and demons? "
At the same time, a voice rang out beside the girl.
"As a pick-up line, your methods are too lousy, Miss Mei Xi."
Following this sentence, Si sat down beside Mei Xi and looked at her with a smile. Mei Xi's expression changed slightly, and she turned to look at Si beside her. Although they had only met once, Mei Xi, as the Godfiend Overseer, had to take into account the strength that Zhui had displayed during the commotion of the Vampires. Of course, she couldn't ignore it.
"… Why are you here?"
"I was asked to investigate a missing persons case."
Si shrugged in response to Mei Xi's slightly wary question.
"A man's daughter disappeared for no reason, and he suspected that his daughter had been turned into a puppet, so he asked me to investigate. But seeing you here … Hmm, does that mean this is the work of the Gods and Demons?"
"…"
Mei Xi hesitated in response to Si's question, but in the end, she nodded.
"That's easy … But then again, I didn't expect you to be interested in that kind of sissy boy toy."
"I like beautiful people."
Mei Xi obviously did not intend to give in in this regard when it concerned her own aesthetics, but Si had a different opinion.
"I like them too, but I only like beautiful and cute girls. I don't care about men, and I don't care if they live or die … By the way, what were you guys talking about just now? Eternal life? That's too much of a chuunibyou. "
"…"
Hearing this, Mei Xi raised her head with a complicated expression and looked out the window in front of her.
"He's a human, but he fell in love with a God … I originally thought he chose to be bewitched and seduced by a God in order to maintain his beauty forever, but …"
"What's so strange about that?"
Compared to the bewitched Mei Xi, Si, as an experienced person, had seen a lot more.
"That God must be very beautiful. People who follow their appearance are always like that, especially at that kid's age. He's chuunibyou and decadent, always thinking that he's as miserable as Mary Sue. Weak and incompetent gigolos like that the most …"
As he spoke, Si stretched his body.
"I think even if you're looking for prey, you should improve your taste, Miss Mei Xi. That chuunibyou boy looks like he's good on the outside, but he's rotten on the inside. Aren't you afraid that if you bite him, it'll turn into gutter oil … "
"Well …"
Mei Xi was at a loss when faced with Si's friendly reply. As a God's Watcher, she rarely had such an intimate relationship with others. As an Eternal Vampire, Mei Xi had experienced many things. As an Eternal Girl, she had transferred to many schools and had some friends. But those friends did not know her true identity. It was the first time Mei Xi had met someone who knew her identity and came over to talk to her so enthusiastically.
But wait …
"Don't tell me you're thinking of …"
Mei Xi was shocked when she thought of the previous commotion among the vampires. In modern gaming terms, those who are unaccountably solicitous are hiding evil intentions. Could it be that this guy wants to steal the kill again?!
"Oh, the client this time just wants to find the doll that his daughter turned into."
Si, of course, understood Mei Xi's thoughts. He waved his hand decisively.
"Your job is to send the escaped God back. I won't interfere this time. What are you going to do?"
"I …"
Mei Xi hesitated in the face of Si's question. Then, she seemed to have thought of something. She stared at Si with a playful smile.
"I want that boy's blood, and I want to send that God back to the darkness."
"No problem."
Si snapped his fingers when he heard Mei Xi's answer.
"Then let's do it."
In the church, a black-haired girl in a white kimono was tightly hugging the handsome boy in her arms.
Then, a storm roared.
Everything around them was torn apart by the strong wind. The kimono girl just sat there silently. Then, she turned around and looked forward.
"Good afternoon, Mei Xi."
At the same time, Mei Xi in a red kimono quietly appeared in front of the kimono girl with Si. Mei Xi stared coldly at the kimono girl in front of her and said.
"Give him to me first, and then you'll go back to the darkness."
"Wow."
Hearing Mei Xi's domineering CEO-like words, Dusk could not help but whistle and look at the vampire beside him. Following Mei Xi's words, the masked man behind her raised his right hand and summoned a ball of flame. But at that moment, countless silver lights suddenly flashed.
The silk threads that fell from the sky instantly pierced through the masked man behind Mei Xi, then tied him up and hung him on a cross.
"Rafah!!"
Mei Xi was shocked to see that her partner had been knocked down in an instant. At the same time, the kimono girl smiled coldly and proudly. She stretched out her hand and gently stroked the hair of the handsome boy in her arms while looking at Mei Xi provocatively.
"Huhuhu … This man is useless to me, but I don't want to hand him over to a greedy lady like you …"
"Tsk tsk tsk …"
Looking at the scene in front of him and listening to the conversation between the two, Si shook his head silently. Those in the know would think that it was time for the gods and demons to retreat, but those who didn't know would think that it was the season for white albums again.
Mei Xi's face darkened when she heard the kimono girl's words. Without a word, she rushed toward the God in front of her. Then, she raised her right hand, and a flame flashed from it. Mei Xi stretched out her hand to send the God in front of her back to the darkness.
However, facing Mei Xi's action, the kimono girl was quite calm. She raised her hand, and the handsome boy who was lying on the ground instantly got up. Then, the kimono girl's figure flashed and disappeared into the handsome boy's body. Seeing this scene, Mei Xi hurriedly stopped — this handsome boy was still her prey. It would be a waste if she burned him to ashes!
But the moment Mei Xi stopped, the kimono girl appeared again. She untied her belt and threw it at Mei Xi. The long belt instantly flew out like a python and wrapped around Mei Xi. At the same time, the kimono girl hugged the handsome boy again and looked at Mei Xi provocatively.
"You …!!"
Mei Xi obviously couldn't accept this kind of public display of affection. She roared, and flames suddenly burst out, tearing the belt that was wrapped around her. Mei Xi suddenly stretched out her hand. Soon, a strong airflow flew over and instantly pulled the handsome boy who was hugging the kimono girl into Mei Xi's arms.
Holding the handsome boy in her arms, Mei Xi showed a proud smile like a mistress in a romance drama. She looked at the kimono girl in front of her.
"Please take a good look. Your beloved man will obtain eternal life after receiving my blood."
"…"
We're exterminating a demon. Can you be more serious?
Looking at the love triangle-like scene before her, Mei Xi was completely speechless.
After proudly declaring her ownership of the handsome boy, Mei Xi lowered her head and tried to suck his blood. Looking at this scene, the kimono girl trembled in anger. Her eyes widened. At the next moment, her eyeballs fell out of her eye sockets and fell to the ground like glass balls.
"Be careful!"
Seeing this scene, Mei Xi was startled and hurriedly warned. But as soon as she spoke, the kimono girl transformed into a mysterious shadow and dashed toward Mei Xi, snatching the handsome boy from her arms. Mei Xi hurriedly retreated and jumped back to Mei Xi's side.
"Why did you provoke her? Cornered dogs will do desperate things. Why don't you just bite her?"
At this moment, Grizzly raised Frostmourne, stared ahead, and kept complaining. Mei Xi didn't respond to her complaints. She just stared blankly at the front. There, the beautiful black-haired kimono girl had become a puppet. Her body was a combination of wood and joints. She looked like a puppet that was being waved around. The handsome boy was still in her arms, motionless as if he was unconscious.
"Huhuhuhu …"
Huhuhu … "The black-haired puppet laughed proudly while hugging the handsome boy tightly. She looked at Mei Xi like a victor and said.
"Didn't you ask me before why I didn't turn Gui into a puppet? I'll answer you now! I'm a demon god, but I fell in love with a human … I've fallen in love with Gui. That's why I can't turn him into a puppet that's neither dead nor alive. Demons are different from humans. They've long forgotten what love is. But now, it seems that I'm wrong … "
As she spoke, the black-haired puppet took off the clothes of the handsome boy in front of her. Underneath his clothes was a puppet body made of wood and joints, just like the black-haired puppet.
"— — — — —"
Mei Xi's face turned gloomy, while the black-haired puppet sneered proudly. Then, as if showing off her spoils of war, she raised the handsome boy who had become a puppet.
"How is it? Mei Xi, do you still love him? Even if that handsome boy has become like this? Hahahahaha … "
"…"
Mei Xi looked at the handsome boy who had become a puppet in front of her without saying a word, while the black-haired puppet hugged the handsome boy tightly.
"I love him. This … belongs only to me … This is something that belongs only to me …"
For a moment, the scene became extremely silent. But at that moment, another cold voice sounded.
"No, he doesn't belong to you."
Along with this voice, the icicles instantly exploded, trapping the black-haired puppet within. Then, the ice chains suddenly appeared and tightly bound the motionless puppet. Then, the ice chains rapidly contracted, and the beautiful young man who had turned into a puppet was sent flying by the ice chains and landed heavily in front of Si.
"Gui! Gui!! "
Seeing her beloved puppet being taken away, the black-haired puppet screamed, but Sui only stared at her with a sneer.
"You want to return to the Dark Abyss with your beloved? Unfortunately, you don't deserve such treatment. Have you ever thought about how many people have lost their beloved children because of you? And now? You're still dreaming of happiness? "
As he spoke, Sui raised his right hand, clenched Frostmourne, and stabbed the puppet in front of him.
"Ahhhhhh!!!!"
A painful scream came from the puppet. The next moment, the handsome boy's puppet shattered and was sucked into the blade of the pitch-black greatsword.
"Gui!! No!! Give it back to me!!! "
Seeing this, the black-haired puppet screamed in pain, while Sui stared at her with a cold and ferocious smile.
"I won't kill you. You will be sent back to the Dark Abyss. You will suffer eternal pain and torture like those who lost their loved ones because of you … Mei Xi, send her back!"
"Ahhh … Oh …"
Hearing Sui's order, Mei Xi was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at the God in front of her with a complicated expression and raised her right hand.
"God Lan Jia, return to the Dark Abyss!!"
Following Mei Xi's order, the flames erupted again and completely swallowed the black-haired puppet.
"No!! I don't want to go back!! Give me back Gui!! Give me back …!!!!! "
The shrill scream gradually disappeared into the darkness along with the flames.
"…"
Mei Xi lowered her right hand and looked at Sui with a complicated expression. This was not the first time she sent the God back to the Dark Abyss, nor was it the first time she experienced such emotional entanglement.
But …
"Miss Kasugano, what you're doing … isn't it a little too …"
"Mistakes must be punished."
Sui shook his head and interrupted Mei Xi's question.
"She turned so many people into dolls, causing their parents to lose their loved ones. I think it's reasonable to give her the same treatment … She made a choice, so she must bear the consequences. "
Having said that, Sui retracted Frostmourne and smiled at Mei Xi.
"Then, my mission is over. I'll take my leave. I hope we'll meet again."
After saying that, Sui turned around and left. Mei Xi stared at Sui's back. After a while, she suddenly asked.
"Miss Kasugano, do you want eternal life?"
Hearing Mei Xi's question, Sui didn't even turn around. He just waved his hand.
"I've had that for a long time."
