Capítulo 43: The Broken Clue

Editor: Larbre Studio

Due to the cultivation, Kazuki had awakened his Yin and Yang eyes and was able to see things that ordinary people could not.

But the world was marvelous, even the Yin and Yang eyes had their limitations. Hence, he was now using a secret technique called Peeking Eyes. This secret technique was explicitly developed by the combat division of the Spiritual Academy to examine situations and was very comprehensive.

However, the secret technique was still in a semi-finished state before Kazuki time-traveled. It was said that the combat division had burst eyeballs of thousands of death rows to develop this secret technique.

The Peeking Eyes could see through any spiritual objects, including the cultivator's body condition, and the enchanted talisman, Taoist instrument, and spiritual instrument on the body. When the Peeking Eyes was developed, it was immediately classified as confidential, and the non-core members were not allowed to practice so as not to expose to the public.

Before the battle began, if the combat division of the Spiritual Academy used the Peeking Eyes, the enemy's body condition, the amount of enchanted talisman, and the type of weapon could all be known. It could completely crush the opponent in the aspect of information.

It was not until some people developed similar means, that the level of secrecy of the Peeking Eyes was lowered, and Kazuki was able to find out about this secret technique.

Moreover, it was rumored that when this secret technique was still in the study of transformation, the talented researcher of the combat division had said that he would give the Peeking Eyes the ability to spot the enemy's deadly weakness in the battle.

It was just that this ability had not been developed when Kazuki time-travelled. However, Kazuki had no doubt in the combat division's successful development but felt that it would merely be a difference in timing.

Like the earlier Ghost Expelling Talisman, it only had the simple function of exorcism at first. The hard work of the members of the Enchanted Talisman Division in research had successfully developed up to four types of Ghost Expelling Talisman.

The Ghost Expelling Talisman that Kazuki used was named Exorcism Type III, and it belonged to the third generation. It had the function of healing, defense, and attack, and played a huge role.

After not being able to develop a new type of Ghost Expelling Talisman, the Spiritual Academy classified this generation of Ghost Expelling Talisman as the orthodox.

The Spirit Stabilizer Talisman was the same as well. He was using the Spirit Stabilizer Talisman of the fifth generation, and it 'stabilized' to an extreme extent. This was why the Spirit Stabilizer Talisman was still working although his strength was so much worse than the Multi-armed Demon.

Of course, there was one drawback to the Peeking Eyes, where it would extremely exhaust reiki. This might not be a disadvantage in the age of recuperation of reiki, but now it was a big flaw to Kazuki.

Just as he started using it, he could feel that more than half of the reiki in his body had instantly dissipated! However, the function of the Peeking Eyes was so powerful that Kazuki could immediately see the strangeness in Mai Kujo.

The figures around became blurry all of a sudden, and Kazuki could observe the strangeness in Mai Kujo.

The strangest thing was that there was a fist-sized spiritual light under the neck of Mai Kujo. It seemed to be from a necklace worn around her neck.

However, Mai Kujo was wearing kimono, so he did not know how the necklace would look like.

Kazuki was surprised to find that Mai Kujo's body condition was deplorable, and her vitality was feeble... It was like the light of a firefly as if it could be killed at any moment.

He wanted to observe again, but the reiki of his body had been exhausted. He exited from the state of the Peeking Eyes immediately in the next moment. His eyes burst with soreness, and he could not restrain the flow of tears.

Fortunately, Furuhashi Akino and Fuyuno were both focusing on Mai Kujo and did not notice the abnormality of Kazuki

Kazuki closed his eyes to rest, and there was already speculation in his heart about that spiritual light.

When Mai Kujo received the certificate of professional mahjong player issued by the Japanese Mahjong Federation, she took the microphone and gave a speech. The audience only began to leave reluctantly after ten minutes.

Of course, there was some audience who stayed, hoping to get the signature or photo of Mai Kujo.

Furuhashi Akino was going to take a picture at first, but seeing the crowd, she gave it a thought and gave up. She was a pure homebody, and she came to watch Mai Kujo's competition due to her admiration for Mai Kujo's mahjong skills. Otherwise, she would not even step out of her house, usually.

Forget about letting her go and squeeze in the large crowd.

Furuhashi Fuyuno did not intend to go up too, and her eyes stopped on Kazuki for a while. She saw his red eyes, and could not help from being frightened, "Your eyes, Senior."

Upon hearing this, Furuhashi Akino looked over too.

"... It's okay. A foreign object flew into my eyes, and they turned out like this after rubbing them for a while." Kazuki laughed, telling the two to ignore this. Then, he said, "Mai Kujo's competition is over. I have something to attend to, so I'll leave you guys."

"Alright." Furuhashi Fuyuno did not have any opinion. It was just around four o'clock in the afternoon, and she planned to head back instead of staying here. Hence, she was not afraid to encounter a similar situation at noon again.

As a homebody, Furuhashi Akino did not have any opinion either. She just wanted to go back earlier to play games.

After separating with the two, Kazuki came to the school gate and did not exit it. He sat on a chair placed on the grass by the side and closed his eyes to rest... The soreness in his eyes had not dissipated until now after he used the Peeking Eyes for only two seconds.

After all, his power was not enough.

When Kazuki was sitting on a chair as he waited for Mai Kujo, his phone rang. He picked up the phone, and it was the voice of Nakagawa Aokiji.

He was shocked as he did not expect Nakagawa Aokiji to bring him the news, so he was anticipating. However, the words of Nakagawa Aokiji made his heart sink...

"I'm sorry, Kimura-Kun. I've contacted Kaoru Kawamoto, who was the teaching director at Akichi High School. He told me that although his phone has been backing up the contact details of the teachers, the account of the contact details left by Nishiyama Chiyoko had already been closed. Moreover, Nishiyama Chiyoko used to stay at the teacher's dormitory, so his address is unknown." Nakagawa Aokiji deeply sighed, "The most important thing is Nishiyama Chiyoko had little friends in school, and he didn't contact his colleagues after he resigned..."

"Alright." Although Kazuki was disappointed, his mind was still very peaceful. This was because it seemed that the teacher, Nishiyama Chiyoko, might have been a critical figure in the Akichi High School fire incident.

As long as this person was found, all the confusion would perhaps be answered.

"I'm so sorry that I can't be of much help on this matter. If you have other things that you need to do after this, you can look for me."

"I will."

After hanging up, Kazuki kept his phone, and he caught a glimpse of Mai Kujo walking toward him from the stadium. Beside her were the three professional mahjong players that had just played against her, and also people from the Japanese Mahjong Federation.

Mai Kujo had now changed from her kimono into casual clothes. She wore that just now because the Japanese Mahjong Federation had requested her to do so.

After all, Mai Kujo was an idol in the Circle of Japanese Mahjong, and she had a significant influence over the masses. The Circle of Japanese Mahjong would certainly hope to expand its influence by relying on Mai Kujo.

Never underestimate the power of young idols.

Just as Mai Kujo reached the school gate, and was ready to bid farewell to the others, Kazuki came over from behind. When he was passing by Mai Kujo, his lips moved as he said something.

His voice was just like an insect, and only Mai Kujo could hear it.

Mai Kujo's eyes shook as she saw Kazuki's figure walking towards the school gate. There was a wooden tachi attached on his waist, and he disappeared quickly into the crowd.

For a moment, she could not even respond.
