Chapter 80: This is my sister
"Not a bad association! But it's so wrong." Shenqian Shimamura caught the coin and quickly flipped it back and forth between a few fingers: "I'm not thirty, Miss Yida! She's sixteen years old Now, if it’s my daughter, wouldn’t I be a father before my hair even grows?”
"So this is your sister?" Yoshiyuki looked at Shimamura Akemi, who was chatting quietly with Takagi and her mood had recovered a bit, and asked the Shimamura investigator.
"No, it's my sister."
"???"
Yoshiyuki and Erina were stunned for a moment.
The eldest lady looked at the girl with twin tails again, and then complained.
"Hey, Zuidao Village, are you kidding me! You are more than ten years older than her!"
"Hahaha, the situation is a bit special!" Shimamura laughed, then lowered his voice, leaned close to the two of them and whispered: "Actually, we are indeed siblings. We are still close."
"I really can't tell." Erina looked disgusted: "Miss Shimamura looks so cute, why is your brother so annoying?"
"Men, what's the use of pursuing cuteness? I'm not a My Little Pony."
"Wait a minute, isn't the point why she still comes to school at this age?!" Yi Xing was speechless: "She should have gone to high school more than ten years ago! Could it be that she never went to school, so she always wanted to experience it? "
"That's quite reasonable." Erina agreed: "Many immortal people are like this. They even miss campus life every few years and go back again."
"My sister's situation is quite special. Although Mingmei was born in the same year as me, she is only sixteen years old both physically and mentally. She never went to high school."
When Gunslinger Shimamura said this, his expression was extremely serious and his tone was filled with guilt.
"When we were young, we were attacked by demons at the moment of encounter. In order to protect me, sister Mingmei used the sealing technique that she had not yet mastered. It successfully bought time, but she fell into a deep sleep due to the imperfection of the spell. Not only did her physical growth fall into Stagnated, her mind also stayed in that dusk... She slept like this for more than ten years, and she just woke up last year."
"...It took that long." Yoshiyuki was deeply shocked after hearing this: "Mr. Shimamura, is this the reason why you became the weird investigator?"
"Absolutely. I just hope that with my efforts, such tragedies can be reduced."
Yasuhiro Shimamura caught the coin for the last time and put it into his pocket.
"Actually, I'm quite satisfied with this result. After all, I thought she would never wake up again! Haha! I don't know when an investigator like me will die suddenly while dealing with monsters. It's mine to take care of her. It would be bad to leave the responsibility to parents who are getting older."
He smiled again, lowered the brim of his hat, and continued.
"Okay, let's talk when we have the chance. I still have to investigate the case... Please make things better with Mingmei, okay?"
"You're already doing us a big favor by not singing in front of us." Yoshiyuki recalled the terrifying voice and immediately refused: "Listening to that music, it's as if an evil spirit is about to kill you!"
Investigator Shimamura quickly left with Akemi.
Before leaving, she waved goodbye to everyone, climbed onto the Gatling Bodhisattva, and asked it to follow her brother.
As a result, the sturdy bronze statue began to follow Shenqiandao Village and walked toward the door step by step.
For a moment, the ground trembled a little, as if a magnitude three earthquake had occurred.
"Takagi-kun, the person you were waiting for has left. What will you do next?" Yoshiyuki asked Takagi Yakuko, "Will you come with us?"
"Ah, no. I have to wait for one more person. We are on the way, and we want to take the tram back together." Takagi touched his head and chuckled: "You are familiar with this boy. He is a descendant of Hermann, right? "
Most Japanese people have no recollection of the name she mentioned.
But everyone who knows the hidden history of the Battle of the Sealing Gate will be very familiar with it.
In order to seal the Gate of Underworld, the first generation of Underworld Miko and Maekawa traveled all over Japan to perform rituals and prepare for sacrifices.
On the way, many warriors were summoned to join the team.
Among them was a Westerner: Herman Amis.
According to the records of the Yida family, in order to cure his sister's witch disease, the Templar placed all his hopes on the rumors among businessmen: the Eastern Tang Empire had an elixir that could cure the disease.
Therefore, Hermann gave up his title and sect status, sold his property, and crossed the ocean with his gold and silver, from Europe to the Tang Dynasty, hoping to go to Shushan to seek elixir.
However, the Shushan Sect was experiencing civil strife at that time, and the demon world opened a portal from here to invade the mortal world. Shushan established a barrier to seal the mountain to prevent the demons from escaping, and Herman was naturally unable to enter.
In despair, a Shushan swordsman who was also unable to return to the sect due to the closure of the mountain was moved by Herman's love for his sister and told him that an alchemist who violated the sect's rules and was expelled from the Shushan sect fled to Japan. Perhaps He can also help refine elixirs.
So Herman followed him across the East China Sea and came to Japan, where the whole country was in turmoil due to the rampant demons. In the process of searching for the alchemist, he met the Underworld Witch and others, and they acted together many times.
In the end, Herman succeeded in obtaining the elixir despite numerous difficulties and dangers. The two also participated in the final battle to seal the door. They survived the decisive battle against Pluto Izanami and each returned to their homeland.
This Shushan swordsman later made great achievements in pacifying the civil strife in Shushan and became the leader of Shushan. A hundred years later, he was promoted to the sword immortal.
But Herman's end was extremely miserable.
He successfully returned to his hometown, rescued his sister from the brink of death, married a wife and had children.
However, not long after, he was regarded as a heretic who betrayed the gods because he used the immortal magic learned from the Shushan Sect and the Japanese Onmyoji when fighting monsters to protect the people. He was tortured and tortured but still refused to admit his guilt and died. On the stake.
His sister was also tied to the stake and executed, but was resurrected by the power of the witch. Later, with the help of sympathetic businessmen, he found his brother's hidden wife and children and fled to Japan, seeking help from the Yida family.
The Yida family was very sad after hearing the news and helped him settle down. The Amis family has continued for thousands of years, until today.
Herman's sister was also immortalized by the witch's blood. Although she had long since resigned from the position of head of the family, she had always been the one in control behind the scenes.
Because they have lived and reproduced in Japan for a long time, the appearance of Amis's descendants is no different from that of Japanese, and their names have also been changed to Japanese names. The Amis family became the Jimbo family.
Due to their hostility to the Guangyao Holy Cult, the Jinbao family no longer uses the spells of this system, but they still inherit the traditions of their ancestor Herman, and practice Shushan Immortal Magic and Onmyoji. To this day, they still often exchange feelings and techniques with the Shushan Sect. , Escort exchange students to study and live.
As for the boy Takagi-san mentioned, it was Kikune Jinbo. He is also about to enter the first year of high school.
He comes every year to participate in the Yida family's grand ceremony to strengthen the seal of the Underworld Gate, and he is very familiar with Yoshiyuki.
Since he is also interested in photography, he and Takagi-san have a great time chatting every time they meet.
Hearing that they now live upstairs, Erina suddenly seemed very excited: "It seems you won't be shy soon, Takagi!"
"Eh? What?!" Takagi Yoko didn't react for a moment: "What are you talking about, Yida-chan!"
