The points he could give Fang Yan didn't even reach one hundred.
This made Fang Yan shake his head helplessly. Sure enough, newly formed ghosts like these could only offer him very little help.
Then she glanced at some things inside the house and was surprised to find that Yoko Okino, who usually seemed so youthful and lively, was dressed in such a subtly flamboyant way.
However, he didn't have any strange quirks. If he did, he'd rather go back and have Mai Sakurajima wear it for him.
She's even wearing a bunny girl outfit, so I'm sure Mai Sakurajima won't refuse any other outfits, right?
From now on, can my story be attributed to Fang Yan's bunny girl senior?
"Is it resolved?" Inspector Megure immediately approached Fang Yan and asked as he walked out of Yoko Okino's room.
"Hmm, not difficult at all!" Fang Yan nodded slightly, then glanced around and noticed that the sleeping Kogoro hadn't appeared, and Inspector Megure and the others seemed to be heading back, their expressions quite strange.
So, just because I said it was suicide, they treated it as suicide?
"That's good!" Inspector Megure breathed a sigh of relief, then said softly to Fang Yan, "By the way, the Slit-Mouthed Woman incident seems to be getting more and more serious. In the past two days, we've received reports from over two hundred people! Just this morning alone, dozens of people have gone missing, some even while shopping with their companions."
She disappeared as she walked, and now the higher-ups are highly suspicious. The Slit-Mouthed Woman doesn't just appear at night; she appears even during the day.
"More than 200 people?" Fang Yan was also surprised when he heard this. He was amazed by the efficiency of the Slit-Mouthed Woman. If this continued, the entire Edo would become her hunting ground.
"It seems you need to keep up the good work! If absolutely necessary, we might have to deploy the army!" Fang Yan said meaningfully.
"Perhaps?" Inspector Megure gave a wry smile. This matter was beyond their control; in fact, he wished the military would take over.
"Then I'll be leaving now!" Fang Yan waved to Inspector Megure and turned to leave.
"Huh?" Yoko Okino looked at Fang Yan's departing figure, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back. This man had entered her bedroom earlier, and although he came and went in a hurry, that was enough time for him to take something away.
Thinking about that kind of thing, Yoko Okino didn't know what to say.
However, since Inspector Megure and the others hadn't said anything, she didn't feel comfortable making any comments. Besides, not long ago, they had helped clear her of suspicion.
Although this is a bit strange!
"Okay, I'll let you know if there's any news about that!" Inspector Megure said quickly. This was a golden opportunity that he had to stick with. Inspector Megure now knew that the detectives were no longer enough.
In the future, if we encounter a case, those detective assistants might be useful for ordinary cases, but if we encounter a case involving ghosts and monsters killing people, we will still have to rely on Fang Yan's father!
Yes, at this moment, Inspector Megure had already turned Brother Fang Yan into Father Fang Yan in his mind!
Fang Yan, unaware that he had inexplicably gained a son, pondered for a moment before calling Vermouth: "Do you know anything about Sakurajima Mai?"
"Is there something you need? Are you interested in that minor celebrity?" Vermouth asked with interest. "If you're interested, I can disguise myself as her! Of course, if you prefer her as she is, the organization can arrange for her to be sent to you. It's just a minor celebrity, so it's not difficult!"
"I know, I want you to help me investigate where she disappeared. Tell your investigators to be careful, this matter is related to some special people! I suspect it's an Onmyoji!" Fang Yan instructed Vermouth.
However, Vermouth's ability to cosplay whomever she wants is exciting to think about! With this woman, wouldn't it be like having the whole world?
However, it seems their disguise couldn't escape my senses!
Chapter 85
"An Onmyoji?" Vermouth shuddered at the mention of this. To her, Onmyoji held a special meaning, after all, it was extraordinary power. She suspected that Onmyoji could be killed by bullets, but she dared not try it. Perhaps they would be dead the moment they made their move.
To be honest, Vermouth is unwilling to be involved with Onmyoji now; it's too dangerous.
"We can let those special agents do it. They just need to leak some information. I believe they won't miss such an opportunity to learn about extraordinary powers!" Fang Yan reminded Vermouth.
“Is that so? I understand!” A charming look appeared on Vermouth’s face.
Soon, a concrete plan formed in her mind. If successful, it would not only help the organization deal with these agents and fulfill Fang Yan's requirements, but also allow them to get a glimpse into the methods of those Yin-Yang Masters.
"Then I'll leave it to you. Don't push yourself too hard!" Fang Yan added. To him, Vermouth was still quite useful. He didn't want such a good tool to die.
...................................................................................................
"So, after you quickly dealt with those ghosts, you went and bought all this random clothes?" Sakurajima Mai looked at the huge pile of new clothes and complained to Fang Yan, somewhat speechless. "But why did you buy all these clothes?!"
So you like this kind of style!
Sakurajima Mai picked up a nurse's uniform with a hint of disdain and looked at Fang Yan speechlessly. Had her Master awakened some special talent?
Besides the nurse's uniform, there were other unusual outfits here, and Sakurajima Mai felt that they weren't bought from any respectable store.
"And why do you know my size so well?!" Sakurajima Mai then looked at Fang Yan with great vigilance. If she hadn't already become his shikigami, she would have called the police.
Could this guy be a pervert?
"Is it that hard to figure this out?" Fang Yan said with a hint of speechlessness. In his previous life, he had bought many Sakurajima Mai figures and knew her figure like the back of his hand. To do it like this now was simply too easy.
"..." Is Sakurajima Mai difficult? It's very difficult, okay? She now seriously doubts whether she has walked into a wolf's den.
However, thinking of the contract she had made with Fang Yan, Mai Sakurajima breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, her decision to include those things in the contract was the right one.
She decided to stop discussing these issues. Although some of the clothes were a bit messy, the JK uniforms or OL outfits were relatively proper and she could wear them out normally. She didn't need to wear bunny girl clothes all the time like she was doing now.
Mai Sakurajima deliberately changed the subject, saying, "Has that ghost you mentioned been dealt with?"
"Yes, it's resolved. The little brat who just appeared was easily dealt with." Fang Yan waved his hand. "As for your matter, I've already sent people to investigate. But what's interesting is that after you disappeared, your mother also vanished!"
"She's being watched too?" Mai Sakurajima asked anxiously.
At this moment, she hoped that she had misunderstood her mother and that her mother had not betrayed her.
"No, after you left the set, she left too, and she followed you out!" Unfortunately, Fang Yan shattered Sakurajima Mai's illusion and spoke up.
“Then it’s also possible that she came out with me, worried that something might happen to me, and was protecting me from behind. In the end, she might have been killed along with me!” Mai Sakurajima quickly continued.

If she could, she still wanted to think of her mother in a more positive light.
After all, she was his mother! Being harmed by villains was completely different from being sold by his mother.
“She did follow you the whole way, but my people investigated later and found that your mother was last seen at least at 11 p.m.!” Fang Yan said meaningfully.
"Where did it appear?" Mai Sakurajima asked, frowning.
"That area around 5-chome is near the residence of the president of the company that almost filmed that advertisement for you!" Fang Yan said calmly.
......... 0 .......
Mai Sakurajima fell silent. Although she didn't want to admit it, based on the current evidence, there was a high chance that her mother had betrayed her.
If she were to deny it all at this point, then she would truly be a fool.
"So, the person who plotted against me was that company president?" Sakurajima Mai then stared intently at Fang Yan. Although even if she regained her body, she still couldn't change her fate as a shikigami, it was always a good thing that everyone around her could see it.
"Not necessarily!" Fang Yan shook his head slightly: "According to the bank transfer records, there was indeed a huge transfer between your mother and him, but that amount of money should not be enough for your mother to sell you."
"Yeah, that's about ten million Sakura coins!"
Mai Sakurajima fell silent for a moment. Ten million Sakura coins was a lot of money for most people, but Fang Yan was right; she had definitely exceeded that price.
Someone once offered to spend 30 million a year to keep her as a sugar daddy, but she refused.
Ten million isn't a lot, but the fact that her mother made her film that kind of commercial just for ten million Sakura coins truly broke Sakurajima Mai's heart. 10.
Chapter 86
Mai Sakurajima is considered a well-known movie star, after all, she started acting as a child star. Although her film salary is not very high, with some endorsements, her family is definitely considered wealthy compared to ordinary people.
"Are there any other clues?" Mai Sakurajima asked hurriedly. It was basically a fact that her mother might have drugged her, but Mai Sakurajima wanted to know more about the truth.
"Nothing for now. We haven't obtained the phone records or anything like that yet. It's already pretty good that we were able to find these things in such a short time!" Fang Yan said, looking at Sakurajima Mai with a bit of a speechlessness.
"907" Vermouth and her team were quite efficient, even investigating a lot of traffic surveillance footage. However, investigating telephone communication data and knowing the contents of those calls was rather troublesome.
However, Fang Yan believed that Vermouth and the others could still handle it.
Mai Sakurajima nodded slightly upon hearing this, but did not continue the conversation. However, she was pondering the matter herself: "Could it be the driver's problem? The driver is also from my mother's side."
"The driver is missing too!" Fang Yan said, shrugging.
"..." Sakurajima Mai was speechless. She originally thought that such things should be very far away from her, and that this so-called disappearance was probably due to some misfortune.
But after I became a spirit, such things happened one after another, and the world was indeed becoming more and more dangerous.
After dinner, Fang Yan left Mai Sakurajima and Chansey at home, and set off alone on his journey to find ghosts. Fang Yan was still concerned about what Inspector Megure had said during the day.
He didn't want to be used as a tool, but he couldn't ignore this situation!
"Fang Yan!" Just as Fang Yan was about to wander around in a small alley, a female voice reached his ears.
Fang Yan turned around and saw a girl wearing a beret running towards him anxiously.
"Kato Megumi?" Fang Yan was also somewhat surprised. He hadn't sensed Kato Megumi's presence at all. If she hadn't called out to him, he probably wouldn't have noticed her at all.
This doesn't make sense! But it's actually happened now.
"You know me?" Kato Megumi muttered. She had appeared at Fang Yan's demon-slaying scenes time and time again, but he hadn't noticed her. Originally, Kato Megumi thought that even Fang Yan wouldn't notice her, but she didn't expect that Fang Yan would actually recognize her. This was really great.
"Fang Yan, are you looking for ghosts? I saw the Slit-Mouthed Woman earlier!" Kato Megumi didn't hide anything and immediately said.
"What?" Fang Yan was also shocked. Kato Megumi had actually seen the Slit-Mouthed Woman.
"You might not believe it, but I keep encountering all sorts of ghosts and monsters, though they all seem to ignore me!" Kato Megumi said with a strange expression. "I even saw you fighting a monster before, but none of you seemed to notice me!"
Fang Yan was also taken aback upon hearing this. Such a thing was simply a miracle. Fang Yan was quite confident in his own strength. At least during this period when spiritual energy was still recovering, he was definitely one of the best.
Fang Yan was surprised to find that Kato Megumi was nearby.
He quickly realized something was wrong. If Fang Yan had paid closer attention, he could have found Kato Megumi earlier...
But now, it seems that if Kato Megumi hadn't contacted him, he wouldn't have even noticed her before.
Fang Yan's expression then turned strange. Could it be that the spiritual energy in this world was beginning to recover, and some special people were beginning to awaken?
Otherwise, it would never be like this. Surely the character of Kato Megumi is one where the stronger the person, the less notice they are?
"Where is the Slit-Mouthed Woman?" Fang Yan asked. Regarding Kato Megumi, Fang Yan said that he did not have the energy to study her for the time being, but he could study her slowly after everything was over.
"It's not far away, I was just about to call the police!" Kato Megumi said, pointing to a nearby alley.
"Hmm?" Fang Yan narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. He carefully sensed the aura not far away and found that there really was a bloody smell. It seemed that what Kato Megumi said was true.
But this doesn't make sense!! Such a strong smell of blood, how come I didn't notice it before!
