Under the pitch-black moonlight.
In the alleyways that extended in all directions, an old woman's voice sounded like it was coming from a pipe, echoing into the ears of Ryuga and Yin-yang Shi.
The two of them looked at each other silently, then lifted their feet at the same time and walked in the direction of the sound.
It was strange to have a fortune-telling shop open in the middle of the night in a deserted alleyway. It was inevitable that they would suspect that the other party was here for them.
For Ryuga, although she did not know who was inside, it was necessary to meet the other party and find out her identity and purpose.
Yin-yang Shi was simply idle. It was good that the other party was not an enemy. If the other party was really here for her, she would probably happily raise her dagger and fight with the other party.
In the depths of the alleyway.
A somewhat fat and bloated woman sat there, surrounded by three walls. It was a dead end, and only the opposite direction allowed people to pass through.
Her entire body was wrapped in a wide black veil, and she wore a black veil hat on her head. Her face was hidden under the veil, and it was difficult to see. However, from her voice, she seemed to be quite old, at least fifty years old. She gave people the impression that she was pretending to be mysterious.
In front of her was a long table, and on the table was a transparent crystal ball placed on the tablecloth. It was completely decorated like a fortune-telling shop in the countryside.
If one only looked at the appearance, it was really ordinary.
"Oh, this is really ….. a strange combination."
When the two of them came to the depths of the alleyway, the other party was surprised and sighed.
"Do you want to have a divination? Little brother? "
Then, the other party continued to ask the two of them as if she was trying to attract customers, "My divination is very accurate, and the future I see is very accurate. Are you not interested, little brother?"
"She's here for you."
Yin-yang Shi put the dagger back into her sleeve, then shrugged at Ryuga, and threw the matter to Ryuga.
"No, I'm not talking about the little boy over there."
However, the moment she said this, the other party spoke again. Although she was wearing a black veil, one could still feel that her gaze had landed on Yin-yang.
"I'm talking to you, little brother."
"Me?"
Yin-yang was slightly stunned. His face showed a slightly surprised expression, and then he agreed, "Okay, then let's do a divination!"
Ryuga's gaze then fell on Yin-yang Shi.
He first focused his gaze on her chest for a while, then silently moved down a little. Then, he fell into deep thought.
"Although the chest is small, at least it's moving up and down. I can't see the bottom … but at least it's not a man."
Although he had never seen Yin-yang -style nudity, at least he felt that his ability to distinguish between men and women should not be a problem.
But she didn't refute the title of 'little brother' … Could it be that the Yin-yang style was actually a hermaphrodite?
No, or maybe it was just a name for this personality? Speaking of which, her personality's behavior was indeed very masculine. When she addressed herself, she often used a male's name, which was very different from the behavior of the other personality.
Although it was a bit far-fetched, it was indeed possible.
"And then? What should I do? Look at the palm? Or tell me my name and birthday? "
Yin-yang -style did not care about Ryuga's rude gaze. She casually walked past him and came to the other party's table. She stretched out her white and tender palm and said very casually.
She did not seem to take the other party's so-called 'very accurate divination' seriously. She just treated the other party as a quack fortune-teller that could be seen everywhere by the roadside. Her words were not very serious.
The other party took the palm that Yin-yang -style handed over. Her wrinkled and aged fingers slid back and forth in her palm, making Yin-yang -style's palm shrink slightly, probably because it was a little itchy.
Her divination posture was no different from the divination process in a normal fortune-telling room. It made Ryuga, who had already learned [General Knowledge] about magic, feel like she was a quack.
"Well, I have seen your future."
The other party took back her hand that was holding Yin-yang -style's palm, and then under the two's gaze, she muttered ambiguously.
"To be honest, you will die."
"No matter what happens in the future, you will undoubtedly die. This is a fate that you can't avoid."
Ryuga raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Yin-yang -style's direction.
The expression on her face was also very normal. At first glance, it looked like a passerby facing the frightening words of a roadside fortune-telling stall. However, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.
"You might have some tricks up your sleeve."
She cast an interested look at the other party. "Then what? You think that I will die without a doubt, without any room for negotiation? "
On her face, there was no fear of the so-called 'absolute death' result from the other party's words. Instead, she seemed to be interested and chatted with the other party.
However, from her words, Ryuga noticed that she seemed to have some trust in the other party's divination ability.
Ryuga's eyes flashed slightly. Because he was an assassin, he more or less knew some information about the people under the surface of this city.
He once heard that there would be a fortune-teller in the Guanbuzi alley at night, and she was known as the 'Mother of Guanbuzi'. It was said that her divination was very accurate. Could it be that this old woman in front of him was talking about?
"What my eyes see about your future is that you are at the end of the road."
The old lady considered her words carefully. "The future that I've seen with my eyes has never been wrong so far. Although it's a bit self-defeating, it doesn't hurt to tell you since it's you. The advice that I've given to those customers in the past is actually based on the established future …"
The old woman seemed to see Yin-yang -style in a new light. She was willing to tell her a secret that would definitely shake her shop if it was leaked out.
However, compared to this, Ryuga was more concerned about what she said. Her tone was as if she could see the future —
"However, although I don't know if it's certain or not, the little boy behind you may be a turning point for you."
The old woman suddenly changed the topic and shifted her gaze to Ryuga. Her face hidden under the black veil was full of disbelief.
"To be honest, I have never seen such a person who can't see the future. This little boy may contain a huge secret. If there is a turning point in your life, you may be able to find it from him."
