When night fell, Ryuga prepared to go out again.
"Are you going to look for the Yin-yang -style?"
Esders looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze, as if if he said yes, she would show him a cold face.
"Yes."
Ryuga put on his jacket. Although he didn't mind the cold at night as a ghost, he didn't want to stand out when everyone else was wearing thick clothes.
"But before going to the Yin-yang -style house, I have to go somewhere. I have an appointment with someone."
Ryuga paused, then turned to Esders, "If you are interested, you can come with me. The person I have an appointment with is a very skilled magician. Perhaps she can help you copy the memory in your brain."
He didn't know what kind of memory Esders wanted to copy, but as a companion, he didn't mind helping a little.
"Can that person do it?"
Esdeath raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes lit up. She obviously showed an interested look.
"Among the modern magicians, if she can't do it, then there aren't many who can."
Ryuga gave a very confident answer, as if he was very familiar with and trusted the other party's ability.
"I will go with you."
Esders didn't say anything, and put on his jacket as well, and went out with Ryuga.
...
The meeting place was in a coffee shop.
When Ryuga and Esders arrived, Akushi, as the middleman, was already there.
"This way!"
Akushi was sitting on a burgundy chair by the window of the coffee shop. When he saw Ryuga, he waved at him. "Good evening, Peikura-kun. This is?"
"A friend, a foreigner, not very good at Japanese. I also have a request for that person."
Ryuga vaguely mentioned Esders's identity, and then the two sat opposite Akushi. "Is that person not here yet?"
"Don't worry, there's still time before the appointed time."
Grand Assistant Qiusi had a courteous smile on his face, completely oblivious to the fact that he was facing a terrorist.
Of course, Ryuga didn't reveal her identity when she first came into contact with him. After all, the other party was a police officer. Although he was confident that he wouldn't be targeted, it didn't mean that he was willing to take the risk.
When he interacted with Grand Secretary Akusi, he was actually using the name of his acquaintance, the detective's assistant.
Therefore, in Grand Assistant Akusi's eyes, Ryuga was not just an ordinary child. Thus, he placed a certain degree of importance on him.
In this country, in this era, detectives were still quite popular. Even if you didn't need them, you would never disrespect them. Otherwise, you wouldn't know when your secrets would be made public.
Therefore, Ryuga managed to arrange an appointment with the person he was only acquainted with through him.
"Ah, they're here!"
At a certain moment, Grand Assistant Qiusi's eyes lit up as he looked out the window. He stood up and waved his hand excitedly.
Ryuga and Esders looked out the window together.
An orange-red sedan drove over from afar and stopped at the square in front of the coffee shop. Then, a plainly dressed beauty stepped out of the sedan.
It was a woman with long orange-red hair tied into a ponytail. Her long bangs hung diagonally in front of her eyes. She was quite tall and wore a white shirt like an urban white-collar worker. On the outside, she wore an orange overcoat and an orange handbag on her shoulder. She seemed to have an abnormal obsession with the color orange.
"Sorry, sorry, I've kept you waiting."
She hurriedly walked into the coffee shop and came before the three people. She clasped her hands together and revealed an apologetic smile.
Her gaze swept past Grand Assistant Qiusi and landed on Ryuga and Esders.
Liu Xia, who looked like an ordinary person, was also ignored by her, but at the moment she saw Esdeath, the smile on her face was undetectable.
Esders didn't know any aura concealment skills. Although she knew how to hide her aura, she wasn't able to hide her demonic nature. Even Ryuga only managed to hide her demonic nature after her aura concealment skill reached A.
"Miss Aoqi, welcome. What coffee would you like?"
With a warm smile on his face, Grand Assistant Qiu Si stood up and walked over to greet him.
According to the intelligence, Grand Assistant Qiusi was actually pursuing this Aoqi lady. However, it didn't seem to have any effect. Perhaps it was destined that there wouldn't be any results in the future.
"Forget about the coffee. Can I have a private chat with these two, Officer Qiusi?"
"Eh? Ah, sure! Of course, no problem … "
Aoqi Orange had a polite smile on her face. She led Grand Assistant Qiusi to the side and then sat in front of Ryuga and put her handbag on the seat.
She had just taken out a cigarette from the pocket of her coat, but before she could take two puffs, the two people opposite her were discussing as if nothing had happened.
"That's her?"
Esders looked at Aoqi Orange from head to toe. "She doesn't look very strong. Is this the peak level of modern magus?"
"Don't be fooled by her appearance. In fact, she can still fight with a third-rate servant."
Liu Xia said calmly, "Moreover, magicians aren't warriors. They're researchers, especially her. She's reached the pinnacle of puppetry technology. She's created countless bodies. No matter how many times she's killed, she can resurrect them and appear in front of you again. In a sense, her abilities aren't inferior to yours or mine.
"So that's how it is. That's not bad."
Esders looked at Aoqi Orange a little more, but he only looked at her at the same level. He didn't pay much attention to her ability. Without powerful strength, it was meaningless to not die.
"… It's rude to judge others so casually."
Aoqi Orange's figure slightly paused. She sighed and put the cigarette back into her pocket. "You made me lose my appetite to smoke."
"And then? What do you want me to help you with? Listening to your tone, I'm afraid there's nothing I can help you with. "
"If I remember correctly, Aoqi Orange, you should have come to Kanbuko City around the beginning of this year, right?"
Ryuga stretched out her finger and pointed at the long table. "Can I assume that the curse on Patriarch Yin-yang was planted by you?"
"… Are you a god? How come you know everything as soon as we meet? "
Aoqi Orange looked at Liuxia with a surprised expression, and a suspicious look appeared on her face. "You couldn't have been sent by the Clock Tower to execute the seal, right?"
"On the contrary, in fact, I'm also being sealed."
Ryuga shrugged and said indifferently: "But it's not the Clock Tower here, it's the Clock Tower in 2003 … It doesn't make sense to discuss this. What's the reason for you to target Patriarch Yin-yang?"
