This incident alone has brought considerable criticism to the Prosecutor's Office.
This contrasts with the previous Kosaka Kyosuke-led Prosecutor's Office.
This is clearly a terrible organization that has been merged into the Outer Guard Office and has also incorporated many Onmyoji!
Because both commoners and nobles were frequently disturbed.
Even if the incident was handled in a timely manner, right?
But it's still much worse than before.
What about today?
Another disaster of this kind, which is clearly not simple, has occurred...
Only the Emperor could remain unscathed among those in power.
"That's true. I was overthinking it. Let's get some rest."
"—?!"
Hikigaya, still deep in thought, turned his head and looked at Ayanokouji with a horrified expression.
Ayanokouji, who was about to urge Hikigaya to rest and prepare for battle, suddenly fell silent.
"……what's on your mind?"
"No, no, cough cough."
Hikigaya coughed.
Meeting Ayanokouji's unusually speechless gaze, he knew he had misunderstood.
Ayanokouji was indeed very upset.
He seemed to remember that Kyosuke Kousaka had once had a similar expression.
Is it because his words are easily misunderstood?
Probably not.
The perspective shifts to the east room—
The information was exchanged with Fuyumi in the bedroom, and the situation was verified.
He instructed the other attendants to perform their usual duties and not to go out.
Changwu then hurriedly returned home to visit his wife and eldest daughter.
"Father, we're alright."
Seeing her father's hurried appearance, Yang couldn't help but laugh.
Changwu tried his best to keep his face natural and maintain his dignity.
"Just came to take a look..."
The wife was somewhat helpless and didn't say anything more.
After all, it was her husband who cared about her.
She wouldn't go so far as to continue to strictly supervise her husband's work.
That would be incredibly insensitive.
Changwu was pleased to find that his wife hadn't criticized him, and quickly started talking about what was happening outside.
Yang Nai and her mother listened quietly.
After the sky changed, they closed the gate at Changwu's suggestion.
Nothing is clear right now.
"Is it even more terrifying than the situation in Heijō-kyō back then?"
Seeing that her father's description was still too monotonous, Yang took the initiative to ask questions.
Changwu pondered for a moment: "Slightly inferior, and it's very safe here."
He had just witnessed firsthand the scene of those vengeful spirits attacking the barrier and devouring each other.
Just one glance was enough to severely stimulate my nerves.
Shogo genuinely didn't want his wife and two daughters to see this.
Shogo wasn't worried about his second daughter, Yukino.
He saw from afar that the sleeping quarters were a "forbidden zone" for vengeful spirits, and there wasn't a single one there.
It was as peaceful as ever.
“Safety is the best-case scenario,” Yang Nai said with a smile.
The six months she spent living in Heijō Kyō had given her a great deal of patience.
My father and mother were the same way.
In particular, it recently experienced severe conditions such as dust and ash filling the sky, acid rain, and monster invasions following a volcanic eruption.
The fact that they are alive is proof enough that they are incredibly lucky!
Let's leave it at that.
After giving his eldest daughter, Yono, a comforting smile, Changwu said...
The mother noticed that her husband, Shogo's, toes were beginning to turn slightly, and she stood up.
"No need to think about sending it," Changwu said hastily.
It would be terrible if you accidentally saw those horrific scenes outside when you got to the door.
"Let me straighten your clothes for you."
"Ha..." Yang Nai chuckled softly, silently avoiding the situation.
Parents also have privacy.
She needs to be more sensible.
Day 182 of crossing
The sky remained shrouded in rolling dark clouds.
Many places in Kyoto have been harassed and destroyed by monsters, demons, and vengeful spirits.
As the agency responsible for maintaining order in Kyoto, the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (Kenbi-shitsu) was the first to be criticized by various officials.
As for the Minister of the Interior, Ichiju, who had recommended Kanetaka and Takashina Nobuyoshi to serve as "Chief" and "Vice-Chief" of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.
He himself was looked at with disdain by various nobles.
Intimidated by power, many officials dare not speak out against their anger.
By the end of the morning court session, Yi Zhou's reputation had plummeted.
The political situation gradually underwent subtle changes, with undercurrents constantly surging.
The outskirts of Kyoto.
After expending a great deal of mental and spiritual energy, Kyosuke Kousaka finally completed the mission.
He bid farewell to Minamoto no Yorimitsu, Kamo no Yasunori, Fujiwara no Michitsuna, and others.
He gazed at Kyoto, shrouded in inky shadows.
I have a terrible headache.
The newly established Four Gods Barrier is capable of preventing ordinary monsters and demons from entering.
It's much better than before.
However, stronger monsters can still easily get in.
Fujiwara no Michitsuna was hinting at this.
In essence, it means that the major mistakes were all caused by the officials in charge before them.
Kyosuke Kosaka liked this reason very much.
However, what troubles him more right now is how many monsters and demons have broken in when the old Four Gods Barrier was destroyed...
Despite the help of many Onmyoji, the cleanup was still very difficult.
You can't always blame your ex, can you?
"The new Four Gods Barrier is good. I feel that Minamoto no Yorimitsu will soon start betraying the Serpent God."
"That will be the main storyline. The Dark Akira, who was separated from Abe no Seimei, will cause trouble... Kyoto will be in chaos again."
Kyosuke Kosaka pondered the future situation.
It turns out that the office of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics is not an easy place to run.
Whenever Kyoto faces a crisis, he risks being held accountable.
