Chapter 589: The Screenwriter Is a Red Demon Clan Member — The Yang Script Isn't Afraid of Being Seen Through

Your injuries still need some time to heal; I need to go pursue the Evil Side, so I'll leave first. Afterwards, I'll come back to retrieve the Talisman — hope you can properly keep it safe.

The more you say, the more mistakes you make; the best method is to say as little as possible. Once the White Shadow Ninja explained both the Black Shadow Ninja's and his own settings, he immediately held up a sign giving the retirement signal.

Of course, a hook for future contact was also left — that is the Horse Talisman.

"Eh, wait a moment..."

Jianshan Huangquan still wanted to ask something, but her words couldn't stop the White Shadow Ninja's retirement.

It came treading on the sunset light, and left treading on the sunset light.

The figure in white armor, however, turned into Void within the light.

Before long, people from the Countermeasures Bureau also drove over to this side.

Not for any other reason — only because this place was detected to have extremely strong Spirit Power Field fluctuations.

The one who came was Iwahara Kōji; the crew-cut man got out of the car and saw the messy park.

And also, the trio of girl, boy, and girl.

"Huangquan Miss, what happened here?"

The crew-cut man inquired.

"We happened to be working nearby; after receiving Director Shinguuji's contact, we rushed over to check the situation."

Beside him, Sakurai Ikki supplemented.

Jianshan Huangquan nodded, then replied: "We were attacked by a mysterious person."

"Eh, a mysterious person appeared?"

Iwahara Kōji widened his eyes a bit, then hurriedly asked: "Are you all okay?"

The girl's clothes looked somewhat dirty; bloodstains could still be seen on her school uniform.

But her normal expression didn't look like she was injured.

"Originally there was trouble, but suddenly another mysterious person emerged; the other party acted to save us."

"Ah, two mysterious people?"

Sakurai Ikki was somewhat surprised, wanted to ask more, but was stopped by Iwahara Kōji.

"This isn't a place for conversation; let's go back to the Countermeasures Bureau and talk then."

The park is a public area; although normal people can't see the Black and White Dual Ninja, the destruction caused by the battle just now, the noise produced, could be heard by ordinary people.

Now, park benches shattered, trees toppled, the ground had gullies deep and shallow, the climbing frame was crashed into a pile of iron — yet it had already attracted some ordinary people to gather and watch.

"Director Shinguuji, I'll bring Huangquan Miss over now."

Iwahara Kōji called back to the Countermeasures Bureau, roughly reported the situation here to headquarters, then brought the three people into the car.

"The park facilities — we don't need to compensate for them?"

Tsuchimiya Kagura is a good kid; after getting in the car she still glanced at the messy park, then asked.

"Compensate? Haha, it's not your fault; you're the ones who were attacked — what compensation is needed?"

"No problem, Tsuchimiya Family's little girl; later specialized people will come to handle things here."

"Probably they'll use a gas pipe leak explosion excuse again as the public explanation."

Iwahara Kōji and Sakurai Ikki, one sentence each, gave Tsuchimiya Kagura an explanation.

The vehicle started moving; the atmosphere inside the car fell silent.

The girl's minor injuries had already been healed by the Horse Talisman, but her spirit looked somewhat fatigued.

Jianshan Huangquan looked at her, then pulled her onto her own lap, comforting: "It's okay now, Kagura."

"Sister Huangquan..."

Tsuchimiya Kagura looked at the girl's face at close distance, then gently rested her head on the girl's shoulder.

After experiencing being attacked by the Black Shadow Ninja, the dangerous matter of nearly being killed.

The two who didn't abandon each other in battle, their bond seemed to have deepened somewhat.

Broly sat at the side, watching the girl embracing the girl, silently thought in his heart.

And his gaze was noticed by Jianshan Huangquan.

The girl seemed to misunderstand something; she opened the arm on Broly's side and said to the boy: "Broly, you also want Sister to hold you? That's fine, Sister still has space here."

"Eh?"

While Broly was stunned, Jianshan Huangquan reached out and scooped him over.

He was placed on the girl's lap, his gaze meeting the girl on the other leg.

After experiencing the dangerous matter, Tsuchimiya Kagura was somewhat lacking in security.

And Sister's embrace let her feel peace of mind.

But now, being looked at by Broly, Tsuchimiya Kagura also became somewhat embarrassed.

This made her lift her head from resting on the girl's shoulder, slightly straightening her body on Jianshan Huangquan's lap — as if only this way could she avoid damaging her image in the boy's heart as likewise a sister.

Hmm, Tsuchimiya Kagura already carries the burden of the sister identity; she's making herself look stronger and more reliable.

However, Jianshan Huangquan's raised hand pressed her head back down: "What are you getting up for? Is leaning not comfortable?"

"But looking like this makes it seem like I'm too dependent on you, Sister Huangquan."

Tsuchimiya Kagura explained, some shy red appearing on her face.

"Eh, is Sister not worthy of your dependence?"

Jianshan Huangquan made a sad expression.

"Ah, that's not what I meant..."

Tsuchimiya Kagura was somewhat panicked, but didn't know how to explain.

"Just teasing you; I of course know you didn't mean that, but we're family — family members relying on each other, isn't that the correct thing?"

Saying these words, Jianshan Huangquan embraced the boys and girls on both sides: "Nothing happened this time, that's truly wonderful!"

The girl could not remain calm either; having been attacked by a shadow ninja and facing a life-or-death situation, she was immensely grateful that at this moment she had not lost any important person around her.

【Jianshan Huangquan, Happiness Value continuing to rise...】

And the Happiness Value that had dropped just now was pulled back at this moment, and continued to rise upward.

The production threshold upper limit of Happiness Value can mostly be raised through tugging and front-back comparison.

This was a good situation, but Broly, tightly embraced by the girl, felt somewhat worried; he knew the attack was an act, but Jianshan Huangquan did not.

And once she learned the truth later, would she be very angry at him? Having spent this much time with the girl, he did not want to be disliked by Jianshan Huangquan.

"Sister Huangquan..."

"What's wrong, Broly?"

"If someone told you a kind lie, would you forgive him?"

Broly asked.

"Eh, why are you suddenly asking such a question? Did you tell Sister some lie?"

"Ah, this..."

Broly hesitated whether to lay his cards on the table and confess the truth of the attack to the girl, when he heard the girl say: "Rest assured, Broly, if it's your kind lie, Sister will definitely forgive you; you don't need to confess to me right now!"

"Eh, really?"

Broly widened his eyes looking at the girl.

"But likewise, if someone tells you a kind lie, please don't blame them; just treat it as an exchange, okay?"

Jianshan Huangquan did not pursue asking what lie the boy had told her, only because she herself had also lied to the boy along with others, deceiving him about his mediocre talent.

Tsuchimiya Kagura: "..."

Suddenly felt that her elder sister, whom she embraced, looked a bit like a cunning fox at this moment.

"Eh, Sister Huangquan, did you also tell me some lie, wuu..."

The girl covered the boy's mouth with her hand, then smiled at the boy: "I didn't say that, but Sister didn't pursue you, and I ask you not to pursue Sister either, okay?"

"Mm."

Broly nodded, suddenly feeling reassured.

Not long after, the vehicle arrived at the Supernatural Countermeasures Bureau Headquarters.

"This is the Thousand Gold of the Tsuchimiya Family, Tsuchimiya Kagura, my adopted Younger Sister."

Pushing the door open and entering the Office, Jianshan Huangquan began by introducing the girl beside her.

Shen Gongji Shobu and the others were not fools; after hearing the girl's words, they also knew which topics to avoid.

No one mentioned the matter of Tsuchimiya Lady's corpse, but directly pursued asking about the mysterious person.

Jianshan Huangquan did not conceal anything, and recounted one by one her discovery of the shadow ninja's Existence, the other party's attack on her, being driven into a Desperate Situation, and being rescued by a suddenly appearing white shadow ninja.

"That's how things are."

Jianshan Huangquan used these words as the end of her narration, while in the Countermeasures Bureau Exorcist Division Office, a strange silence fell.

Of course, this silence was not because of the long-acknowledged intelligence that the mysterious person possessed great power, but because there were too many flaws in the story the girl narrated, leaving people momentarily unsure where to retort.

In the Countermeasures Bureau's speculation, the mysterious person who took Tsuchimiya Lady's corpse was either a deeply hidden great yokai or great evil spirit, or an old scheming human monster.

But as a result, on Jianshan Huangquan's side, suddenly a sentence popped out: 【None of these, it's Kamen Rider!】

The mysterious person resembled a great villain from a special effects drama, and according to the girl's detailed narration of the entire attack process, the other party also had a somewhat comical Attribute; what expression were they supposed to put on?

To be honest, if an A-class Spirit Power Field fluctuation had not truly been detected at the park earlier, Jianshan Huangquan's words might have been taken as a joke.

After all, where in this world are there Kamen Rider Shinobi? Rather than believing in that, it's better to believe in light, believe that Dagu can really boil into soup and transform into Ultraman.

"Alright, let's not discuss whether Kamen Rider is a realistic piece or a special effects drama for now; let's only discuss the situation of this attack on Little Huangquan and the others."

"Let me say one thing first: that shadow ninja is bad; there should be no doubt about that."

"And the rest is the situation of that white shadow ninja."

"Miss Huangquan, can you show me the thing the other party gave you?"

Jianshan Huangquan nodded, took out the Horse Talisman, and explained: "This thing's ability to heal injuries is real; my injuries and Kagura's injuries were both healed by this thing."

"We don't mean to disbelieve you, but we still need to be rigorous, Sakuraba..."

"Eh, Director, you want me to do an experiment again?"

"I can apply for an injury and sickness subsidy for you."

"Say it, Director, where do you want me to get injured?"

Hearing there was a subsidy, Sakurai Ikki immediately spoke with great righteousness.

This person ultimately took a box cutter and made a cut on his own forearm.

And after taking the Horse Talisman, the fresh blood on his arm gradually stopped flowing.

In less than five minutes, a not-so-shallow cut was healed.

Director Shen Gongji's eyes lit up; the Horse Talisman's recovery ability compared to its effect in the original World was nerfed to the bone, but for the people of this World, it was still a Treasure-like thing.

It was just unknown what kinds of injuries it could heal?

Was it all of them, or were there Restrictions?

Thinking this, Shen Gongji Shobu took the Horse Talisman from Sakurai Ikki's hand; the others also knew what she was preparing to attempt, but all said nothing and watched her.

Shen Gongji Shobu held the Horse Talisman and waited for a while, but her eyes suddenly widened.

"Director, could it be?"

Nikaido Kiri, seeing the change in her expression, asked.

"Mm, my paralyzed lower body has started to feel sensation; it's a bit itchy, as if the nerves inside are recovering and reorganizing!"

Shen Gongji Shobu, judged medically as paralyzed and Incurable, now felt like tears of joy were welling up; who could understand the feeling of a half-cripple who needs others' help just to go to the Toilet?

"Wonderful, Room Chief!"

Nikaido Kiri was also happy for her, but then she saw her own Room Chief take a deep breath and hand the talisman in her hand back to Jianshan Huangquan.

"Eh, Room Chief, what are you doing?"

"This thing is a treasure, but its true owner merely granted you the right to use it, and did not permit me to use it."

"Then what about me?"

"Yours was an experiment so it doesn't count; we should continue discussing the other party's situation."

"Such a treasure was even lent to someone else to treat injuries; I believe the other party's words should be trustworthy."

The cure-all Horse Talisman raised the credibility of the White Shadow Ninja's words on the Countermeasures Bureau's side.

"But is there not a possibility that the other party is putting on an act with that Black Shadow Ninja Spirit, with the purpose of gaining the trust of Miss Huangquan and Miss Tsuchimiya?

You must know that if the other party's goal truly is the Tsuchimiya Family's bloodline, then some techniques, when the subject is willing to actively cooperate, actually have a higher probability of success."

However, someone also proposed another hypothesis, which was just as Yougouhui had anticipated — in places like a national special agency, there is no shortage of smart people who can spot abnormalities.

Of course, originally their script design wasn't very rigorous; separated by a world, they consecutively modified the plot three times, during which they patched things together haphazardly, and even let the two summoned ninja actors who were participating improvise part of the on-the-spot performance.

"But, none of that matters; our purpose is to train the exorcist girl and the girl. As long as the actors can achieve the effect of training the target subjects, it's fine. As for being spotted as abnormal by anyone else, then let them spot it.

On the Red Demon Village side, which tourist coming here doesn't know about things like Script Killing? But when truly faced with Script Killing, which one isn't immersed body and soul, unable to extricate themselves, letting Script Killing achieve its due effect? So, Broly, rest assured and boldly execute our evil plan in the other world."

Setting aside the extremely pitiful situation in Red Demon Village where some Script Killing projects involve magic beasts — actually using wild magic beasts as actors — Yougouhui's words still have some reason to them. No need to care what others think; as long as the plan's objective is realized, that's all that matters.

The Black Shadow Ninja has already given sufficient survival pressure; the White Shadow Ninja has also left an opportunity to continue contacting the girl and the young woman. Broly, for his part, watched the Countermeasures Bureau and the others' speculative performance with perfect composure.

*Slap—*

Just then, Jinguji Shobu slapped the table and said: "I'll conduct a probe, using my paralyzed lower half as the test.

If the other party truly is a kind ninja spirit, then when faced with your request to treat my paralysis, they should agree.

But if the other party refuses, it shows they have no kindness at all, yet displayed great kindness when facing you.

As the saying goes, 'offering unsolicited attentions — if not a traitor then a thief'; it would be highly suspicious."

"Put that way, if the other party agrees, does that prove they're good?"

Tsuchimiya Kagura asked.

"No, not exactly; it just means credibility is a bit higher, but the necessary vigilance still cannot be relaxed."

Jinguji Shobu was very cautious.

The probe she prepared was based on the premise that spirit bodies cannot easily control their emotions, and might reveal flaws — expose their true nature — in matters outside their schemes, such as showing impatience or the like.

This is an open stratagem, and it happens to have the same clever effect as Broly's open training script.
