A journey through the underworld, starting from the Tsubakihara family.

“Makoto-kun~” Shirakawa Miwa suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong?" Jingu Makoto asked, looking down in confusion.

"Actually, I'm almost fully recovered, or else..."

Just then, a short, sharp siren sounded from afar.

Chapter 7 Yakushiji Ryoko

Then came the sound of a large group of people starting to climb the stairs.

Miwa Shirakawa had no choice but to get off Makoto Jingu. After sitting down, her legs began to rub together unconsciously. Her cheeks still had a lingering blush, and her eyes held a hint of resentment.

"Why did it have to happen at this time of year?"

They soon arrived at the rooftop.

The one leading them was a sophisticated and aloof older woman.

Her fair face had delicate features, but her sharp eyes made it clear that she was not someone to be trifled with.

Her short, brown hair, reaching to her ears, shone with a silky sheen, the ends stopping neatly at her ears, trembling slightly with each step, like a dancing flame.

The white, fitted suit accentuated her full bust and slender waist, creating a striking contrast with the uniformed police officers behind her.

She was very tall, over 1.7 meters, and with her red high heels, she was even taller than many male police officers.

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Makoto Jingu stood up and greeted him, "Ryoko-nee, it's been a long time."

This woman's name is Yakushiji Ryoko, and she graduated from the University of Tokyo.

Her father is the chairman of JACES, the largest security company in Sakura Province. Ryoko Yakushiji joins the police force with the goal of conquering the police force and the freedom to abuse police privileges.

She was known as the "Exorcist Goddess" by everyone in the police force, a name derived from the idea that "even vampires would be terrified and run away."

She is a counselor in the Criminal Investigation Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. She met Makoto Jingu during a case in which Ryoko Yakushiji astutely recognized his potential.

The two then reached a cooperation agreement: Yakushiji Ryoko would ask Jingu Makoto to do some things for her, and Jingu Makoto would also seek her help when he encountered some troublesome problems.

When Yakushiji Ryoko saw Jingu Makoto, a charming smile appeared on her usually cold face.

She walked quickly to Makoto Shingu, her slender fingers touching his chest, a pleasant fragrance lingering around his nose.

"Little brother, it's been so long since you came to see me. Have you grown tired of me? How heartless of you!"

The police officers behind her stared wide-eyed. Was this still the "Exorcist Goddess" they feared like the plague?

Having known her for so long, Jingu Castle wasn't buying it.

He immediately began explaining the case: "Look, the one lying on the ground is called Morishita Wataru. I don't know where he got his hands on a hypnosis app, but he can hypnotize people. And then..."

Shirakawa Miwa also came over and chimed in, "Yes, it was Makoto who saved me..."

Upon seeing the beautiful female teacher, Ryoko Yakushiji raised her eyebrows almost imperceptibly.

Her gaze shifted downwards, and what came into view were those two exaggerated headlights. She couldn't help but glance at her own, then straightened her back without making a sound.

For some reason, a sense of frustration rose in my heart.

She stamped her foot in frustration, then turned to her subordinates and said coldly, "This should be a case of self-defense. Go and investigate the scene. Reiko, take this Miss Shirakawa aside to make a statement."

A large group of people took out their instruments and went to various places to begin testing.

One of the policewomen, who looked rather ordinary, stepped forward and took Shirakawa Miwa aside to begin questioning.

After everyone dispersed, Yakushiji Ryoko suddenly leaned close to Jingujou and took a careful sniff.

Then he suddenly sneered, "You can even get interested next to a corpse? You little pervert."

Ryoko Yakushiji's sudden change left Shiro a little confused, but he quickly realized what she meant.

He had clearly cleaned it carefully, so how did it still get discovered?

Jingujou retorted instinctively, "Old woman, are you a dog? Your nose is so sensitive."

"Who are you insulting!" Yakushiji Ryoko raised her eyebrows. Age is a major taboo for women.

Although she is already 27 years old and is still being pressured to get married by her husband every day, she is still a beautiful young woman!

Just as she was about to retort, a male police officer with an honest-looking face came to her side.

"Detective, inspection complete. Residual hypnotic magic was indeed detected at the phone wreckage. However…"

He paused for a moment, then said, "The body had multiple fractures and lacerations, as well as ruptured internal organs and massive bleeding. It doesn't seem like self-defense."

The seasoned veterans behind him looked at this hothead in surprise. Are young people these days really this brave?

"So you're questioning my decision?" Yakushiji Ryoko looked at him coldly. "I said it was self-defense, and it is self-defense, understand?"

"Hey!" The man turned pale with fright. Then he gave a perfect ninety-degree bow, "Red bean paste, smite, ma'am!"

Jingu Castle watched this scene with some emotion; this concept of hierarchy was truly ingrained in the very bones of the Sakura people.

After being interrupted, Yakushiji Ryoko lost interest in arguing with Jingu Makoto and said indifferently, "That's enough, let's call it a day!"

However, before leaving, she turned around and mouthed to Jingu Makoto: You brat, you just wait.

Jingu Makoto blinked and mouthed in response: I'll wait for you.

……

Miwa Shirakawa left first because she had classes in the afternoon.

Before leaving, she shyly invited Jingu Makoto to her house for the weekend, to which Jingu Makoto naturally agreed.

By the time Makoto Jingu returned to the classroom, it was already the second period in the afternoon.

Since Makoto Jingu had always been an outstanding student in the class, the teacher turned a blind eye and let him off the hook.

When Shizumiya Natsuha saw Jingu Makoto return, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought something had happened to him.

She held the book up to block the view in front of her, then asked in a low voice, "Chengjun, what happened? Why are you back so late?"

"Something came up and I was delayed. Don't worry, it's nothing serious. Here's your juice." Jingu Makoto vaguely brushed it off, then placed the juice at Murasaki Natsume's feet.

"Oh." Seeing that Shingu Makoto was unwilling to say more, Shinomiya Natsume nodded obediently and did not ask any further questions.

……

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the bell rang on time, marking the end of the day's classes.

The students, bustling about, began discussing their after-school activities; some went to sing karaoke, while others prepared to continue being the "King of Scores."

Meanwhile, Shimoha Murasaki happily said to Makoto Jingu, "Makoto-kun, let's go!"

Finally! Finally, she can begin her plan!

She, Murasaki no Miyabi, is determined to win over Makoto!

The journey was very smooth, probably due to Makoto Jingu's efforts over the years. The two were not harassed by those disgusting blond-haired men and arrived at the door of Natsume Murasaki's house.

Arriving at the door with the wooden sign that read "Purple Palace," Xia Ye took out her key, and with a soft click, the door opened.

The room was pitch black. According to Natsume Murasaki, her parents were away on a business trip and wouldn't be back until next month.

Xia Ye skillfully turned on the light, tidied up the trash, and then smiled and waved to Jingu Makoto who was waiting outside the door: "Makoto-kun, come in."

Chapter 8 Hydrangea in Bloom (Part 1)

Led by Natsumi Murasaki, Makoto Jingu arrived at her room.

A faint, sweet fragrance wafted through the room—a blend of vanilla and citrus, as fresh and playful as Xia Ye herself.

On the desk by the window, some study materials are neatly arranged, and a cute hamster ornament hangs on the pencil holder next to it.

The wall is decorated with some small ornaments, which makes it look very cute.

However, the only downside was the mess of women's underwear on the bed.

Following Jingu Makoto's gaze, Murasaki Natsumi saw that he was looking at the underwear and ** on her bed...

Oh no! She's been home alone lately, and I've forgotten to take care of things.

Xia Ye ran quickly to the bedside, picked up the pile of clothes, and stuffed them into the closet.

Then she smoothed her purple hair and said awkwardly, "Cheng-kun, Smima Sai..."

Waaah, I hope Cheng-kun doesn't think she's a bad girl who's unclean and leaves things lying around!

"It's alright, Xia Ye, let's start studying." The understanding Jingu Makoto shook his head, then found a seat and sat down.

"Hey!" Seeing that Shingu Makoto didn't take it to heart, Murasaki Natsume immediately beamed with joy.

She took a workbook out of her bag, then skillfully sat down next to Makoto Jingu, leaning her body close to him and tightly gripping his left hand.

Jingu Makoto's pitiful left arm was trapped in that bottomless canyon, suffering humiliation and torment.

Murasaki Natsumi opened her workbook and picked out a relatively difficult math problem: "Makoto-kun, I don't quite understand this problem. Could you teach me?"

Jingu Makoto took the workbook with his free right hand and began to think.

Murasaki Natsumi stared at Jingu Makoto's profile like a lovesick girl. Ahhh, Makoto looks so handsome when he's serious, so manly!

Fortunately, she still remembered what her purpose was today, so she reluctantly let go of his hand and said, "Cheng-kun, I'm going to change my clothes first. Good luck!"

Then, Natsumi Murasaki took her secret battle robe out of the closet and walked towards the bathroom.

……

In the bathroom, Natsumi Murasaki had already changed her clothes, and the flowing air brought a slight coolness to her smooth skin.

Looking at the few pieces of cloth covering her body in the mirror, Xia Ye blushed.

Two little figures in my mind are having a heated debate.

One was Xia Ye in angel form, with two pure white wings on her back. She loudly objected, "Damn it, Xia Ye-chan. That's wrong. If you do that, you can only get Cheng-kun's body, not his heart. Feelings need to be nurtured slowly."

The other was Xia Ye in her demon form, with two horns on her head. After hearing Xia Ye's words, she scoffed, "What do you know? Sex is the best catalyst for romantic feelings. Besides, can't I get Cheng Jun's body first, then slowly cultivate our feelings and win his heart?"

"Xia Ye-chan, you're graduating soon. You might not even be in the same class again in university. Do you really want to regret it for the rest of your life?!"

Hmm, Natsumi Murasaki bit her rosy lips, the scales gradually tipping in favor of the little devil.

Finally, her eyes hardened, and she swung her arm vigorously to encourage herself: "Xia Ye-chan, you can do it! You can do it!"

With a creak, the bathroom door opened, but Makoto Jingu was completely unaware, engrossed in solving the problem. Perhaps this is the charm of math problems.

Murasaki Natsume crept up behind him and pressed herself against him.

What's that noise? Shingu Makoto turned his head.

All that could be seen was that Shizumiya Natsume was dressed in very little clothing, with her long purple hair cascading down her back, which, combined with her charming oval face, made her quite alluring.

Her swimsuit—no, Makoto Jingu thought it looked more like two ropes forming a "V" shape.

There is a small white cloth in the center of each of the two sides of the "V" to cover two swollen sugar pills.

The bottom section of the "V" rope extends to the back, constricting the green grassland and the abundant fasting.

This outfit, this figure, it's just too much, too vulgar.

And wasn't she just a pure and innocent female student a moment ago? How did this hydrangea suddenly mature?

Seeing Jingu Makoto slightly open his mouth and his Adam's apple bob, Murasaki Natsume revealed a bright smile.

As a fragrant breeze wafted by, Shinomiya Natsume's soft and smooth body suddenly pounced into Jingu Makoto's arms.

She raised her head, her two soft lips pressed against it.

"This is the second time I've been forcibly kissed today," Jingu Makoto thought to himself, looking at Murasaki no Miyako's stunningly beautiful face.

Murasaki no Natsume's technique is mediocre, and she doesn't know how to breathe properly.

Before long, she couldn't hold on any longer, her face flushed red as she released her mouth, panting slightly.

"What's wrong?" Jingu Makoto asked, supporting her smooth, jade-like shoulders.

In fact, Makoto Jingu had already guessed the purpose of Natsumi Murasaki's sudden invitation to her house for a study session, but he never expected that this little lamb would be so bold.

"Makoto-kun, I...I..." Natsumi Murasaki's body trembled slightly, whether from the cold or shyness, "I like you!"

Finally said it!

Murasaki no Natsume seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then her speech became more fluent.
