Chapter 871 Haibara Ai: Heart is Bleeding
Ai Haibara once again quickly reached out and snatched the Cigarette Case, staring at Hissashi.
Hissashi reached into his left Pants Pocket again and took out a Black Box.
It was quite nice to tease his little girl when he had time.
Haibara Ai 'whoosh' reached out and snatched the Box again, only to realize something was wrong when it was in her hand, looking down at the black Paper Box that was obviously not a Cigarette Case.
The pattern on the Box was not silver English Letters, but a colored block pattern of a Rainbow. When she snatched it, she also heard the sound of hard objects hitting the Paper Box inside.
"Open it and see," Hissashi reminded her.
Haibara Ai opened the palm-sized small Box in Doubt, and when she saw that the Box was filled with small Hard Candy wrapped in various colors of Plastic Paper, she looked up at Hissashi in Surprise.
Hissashi looked towards Conan and the Children over there, "When you receive Candy, you should share it with your Friends."
"Got it…" Haibara Ai said softly, pursing her lips, and handed the three packs of cigarettes she confiscated to Hissashi, her face stern, "You need to be restrained."
"Uh-huh."
Hissashi put the Cigarette Case back into his Pocket without changing Expression.
Little girl wants to manage him like she manages Doctor Agasa? No way.
Haibara Ai closed the Box, turned to look at Doctor Agasa and the others in the room, and the corner of her mouth quietly raised slightly.
Receiving a Gift, her Mood was super good.
…
While the two siblings were playing the 'childish snatching' Game, Conan had already asked Tushi Yicheng for the last Fragments of the Day Mirror. He pieced them together with the three Fragments he had obtained before, and then closed them back-to-back with the Night Mirror that Wakura Yuumi had taken out. The concave-convex patterns on the edges of the Mirrors fit together perfectly.
"With this, the Festival activity can be carried out successfully, right?" Conan said with some Sigh as he handed the two Mirrors to Granny A-Fu.
Granny A-Fu took the Mirrors and gently stroked them with her rough Fingers, her eyes reddening, "These two Mirrors, after so many years, have finally reunited, but they have already carried too much sorrow…"
"Granny, you wanted to drive away people related to the Wakura Family, and you also wanted to pull Mr. Tushi to the Shrine to Prayer, you wanted to stop Mr. Tushi from committing a crime, right?" Conan asked.
After discovering that Tushi Yicheng was the Murderer, he also remembered Granny A-Fu's previous Behavior and Statement. This Granny was not that fierce.
"Yes, after Machiko died, I saw that this Child Tushi was pitiful and helpless, so I raised him single-handedly," Granny A-Fu looked towards the Rear of the Crowd, "As for the Wakura Family's Matter, I probably guessed some of it, after all, my Younger Sister works as a Maid in the Wakura Family Residence."
Ayou walked forward from the Rear of the Crowd, facing Wakura Misa's surprised Gaze, and lowered her Head with some guilt.
As a Maid, she should not casually reveal the Master's Matter.
Granny A-Fu lowered her Head again, deeply gazing at the Obsidian Mirror in her Hand, and suddenly blew a Whistle.
A Golden Eagle more than a meter tall flapped its Wings and landed.
"Wow!"
The Villagers and Conan and others nearby hurriedly backed away a little.
The Golden Eagle folded its Wings and stopped Beside Granny A-Fu.
Granny A-Fu took out a Cloth Bag, put the Mirrors in it, and after tying the String of the Bag opening, hung it around the Golden Eagle's Neck, "As for these two Mirrors, let them return to God's side."
The Golden Eagle flapped its Wings again and flew towards the Sky.
"Hey! That's Evidence…" Conan was unable to stop it, and could only watch in Stunned silence as the Golden Eagle flew away.
He just gave the Mirrors to Granny A-Fu for the Festival, and when Inspector Megure arrived later, he would have to take them back to the Metropolitan Police Department…
"Alright, everyone!" Granny A-Fu perked up, "Let's continue the Festival activity!"
"Oh! Oh!"
The Villagers cheered and lit the unlit Sacrificial Tree with Torches one after another.
Each Sacrificial Tree was in the center of the Plaza, separated from other Trees by a distance, so there was no need to worry about igniting other Trees.
The Flames shot along the Tree Trunk upwards, and the Villagers danced and sang in Golden Eagle Warrior costumes.
A large Group of Flying Bird suddenly flew out from the depths of the Forest, passing over the Shrine, and the Black Shadow formed covered the Sky and the Earth, making the Light in the Plaza of the Shrine suddenly dim.
Granny A-Fu shouted, "Everyone, the Great Bird God has already Summoning the Solar Eclipse, now please silently make a Prayer for your Wish in your Heart!"
Conan looked up at the large Group of Flying Bird in the Sky, "This is the Solar Eclipse that will appear in the Festival."
The Villagers lowered their Heads and silently prayed for their Wishes. Even Kisaki Eri, Tiantang Qinghua, and Haibara Ai, these Female outsiders, were Infected by the Atmosphere and followed suit to make a Wish in their Hearts.
The Crowd quieted down, and around them, there was only the crackling sound of Fire burning, and the roar from the Helicopter approaching from a distance.
Hissashi Turn Head and Looked at the Forest where the Group of Birds flew out.
Hongzi should have already obtained those two Mirrors. He still had to go back with the others and then bring the Blood that Chi Shinnosuke had someone buy over.
After two Police Helicopter flew close, they found an Open Ground to land.
After Inspector Megure arrived, he would also take the Police Officer to investigate the Corpse of Wakura Yoichi and Wakura Kotomi, and let the Helicopter send Hissashi, Lawyer Fei and others away first.
On the Helicopter, five Children gathered together to receive Candy.
"Thank you, Ai!"
"Li… Ha,Haibara Classmate, I want a Peach flavor!"
Haibara Ai saw Genta change his Words, and then put a small Candy in the shape of a Peach in Genta's Palm.
Doctor Agasa said with a smile, "Then I'll eat an Orange flavor!"
Haibara Ai gave a Candy in the shape of an Orange to Doctor Agasa, and Turn Head to Look at Conan, "Edogawa, what about you?"
"Uh, I don't need it." Conan was a little surprised to see Haibara Ai still asking him, but he didn't want to receive Candy like a Child, childish.
Haibara Ai did not insist, looking at the Candy remaining in the Box, feeling a pang in her Heart.
The Black Box the size of a Cigarette Case was not big to begin with, and the Candy made into various Fruit shapes were also small, only ten were packed in it. After distributing a Circle, she didn't have many left…
After hesitating for a moment, Haibara Ai still Reach Out and handed the Box to Kisaki Eri and Tiantang Qinghua who were sitting together, "Lawyer Fei, Miss Tiantang, please help yourselves to whatever flavor you want."
She was not a Child, yet she actually felt Heartache for her Candy, it was really too childish.
Kisaki Eri took a Candy in the shape of a small Lemon and said with a smile, "Thank you, Ai can call me Aunt like Conan, calling me Lawyer Fei is too formal."
Haibara Ai Nod with a Calm Face, and Look Towards Tiantang Qinghua.
Tiantang Qinghua hesitated for a moment, Reach Out and took a Candy in the shape of a Strawberry, Turn Head to Look at the other Children who were laughing and playing together, and said with a Tone of coaxing Children, "If you don't mind, you can also call me 'Sister Qinghua' like the other Children."
Haibara Ai continued to Nod with a Calm Face, and Look Towards Iiai Takuto.
The last one.
The Man named Fukuura Reiji found an Excuse to stay in Fifteen Night Village. In fact, everyone could see that that person wanted to show courtesy to the Wakura Family's Miss, but this was also good, she could still save a Candy.
"Ah, Thank You." Iiai Takuto took a Strawberry flavor with a smile.
"You're welcome." Haibara Ai Turn Around with a Cold Face, her Heart was bleeding.
She was not childish, but Brother Hichiji giving Candy was really rare, this was still the First Time, and they were such good-looking colored Fruit-shaped small Candy.
This was not Candy, this was Surprise, but the Peach flavor was gone, and the Strawberry flavor was also gone…
Iiai Takuto felt a chill, and Scratch Head with a dry smile.
Tiantang Qinghua Turn Head and watched Haibara Ai Go To Hissashi's Side, speechless.
Hearing that she was Student Chi's Younger Sister, she was really just as awkward, clearly actively sharing Candy with everyone, but still with an Expression of 'I don't want to give you any'.
Haibara Ai returned to Hissashi's Side and sat down, handing the Box in her Hand to the Side, "There are still three left, Lemon flavor, Orange flavor, Grape flavor, you choose first."
Conan glanced sideways, paying attention, and silently recited in his Heart: Orange flavor, it must be Orange flavor…
Hissashi withdrew his Line of Sight from Outside the window, Reach Out and took the Lemon flavor, peeled off the Candy Wrapper, and put it in his mouth.
He didn't like to eat things that were too sweet, Candy with a sour taste was much better.
"Huh?" Conan felt Accident.
Hissashi sent the wrong News in the middle of the Night asking him if he would eat Orange, he thought Hissashi preferred Orange Fruit, and he was still thinking about whether to eat it in the middle of the Night…
Haibara Ai hesitated for a moment, chose the Grape flavor, and found that Hissashi Turn Head to Look Outside the window again, even Hassashi was leaning on Hissashi's Shoulder looking Outside the window, and asked in Doubt, "You and Hassashi have been looking Outside the window just now, what are you looking at?"
Hissashi did not Turn Head, "Great Bird God."
Haibara Ai: "???"
Holding the Idea that 'Brother Hichiji's Mind might be broken', Haibara Ai looked out of the Window in a daze, and was Stunned at just one Glance.
The Sacrificial Tree lit by Fire in Fifteen Night Village were still burning. Looking down from High in the Sky, those Sacrificial Tree were actually burning into a Bird Pattern with Wings spread, and the Flame was blown by the Wind, Just Like a Fire Bird with Fire Wings fluttering.
Perhaps this was the Great Bird God that would only appear once every three hundred years in Fifteen Night Village, a Fire Bird that would only appear when the Festival activity began and the Sacrificial Tree distributed everywhere were lit.
"What's Wrong?" Conan curiously left his Seat, Go To an empty Seat Beside Hissashi, and Looked out of the Window, also Stunned, "This is… Great Bird God?!"
"What?"
Doctor Agasa leaned forward, the other three Children leaned forward, Kisaki Eri, Tiantang Qinghua and others also curiously went over, and they also Saw the Fire Bird that was getting smaller and smaller in their Line of Sight.
Unfortunately, they discovered it too late. They had just Saw the Flame Bird for no more than two seconds. In a blink of an Eye, Fifteen Night Village and the Fire Bird below were left behind by the Helicopter, and they could no longer be Seen.
"Ah…" Mitsuhiko Regret.
"Can't See it anymore." Ayumi disappointedly withdrew her Line of Sight.
Conan also failed to See it for long, Turn Head to Glance at Hissashi, and laughed dryly in his Heart.
That Fellow had been Seeing it for a long time, but he actually sat there and watched it alone without saying a word, without reminding them, really enough.
Hissashi was Still Looking Outside the window. His Initial Purpose, including paying more attention Afterwards, was the Terrain Vicinity of Fifteen Night Village.
A Group of People saw that there was nothing to See, so they could only return to their original Seats.
After Kisaki Eri sat down, she suddenly remembered one Matter, Turn Head and Ask Tiantang Qinghua, "Are you okay?"
"Ah?" Tiantang Qinghua was a little Stunned.
"I heard that Fukuura is your Boyfriend, you have been dating for four years, but he seems to have become Interested in Miss Misa again," Kisaki Eri explained, "Romance is not marriage, Even If one party cheats, there is no Lawsuit, in this regard, I can't help much, but If it is as a Female who is older than you, chatting with you, maybe it can make you a little happier."

Chapter 872 Midnight Lunar Eclipse
"Thank you, but I'm not unhappy," Tiantang Qinghua paused, then confessed, "At least, not as unhappy as I imagined. Before, to make Friends, I pretended to be a Young Miss from a Rich Family. Reiji, Takuto, and… and Yasumi, they've all found out."
Kisaki Eri looked at Iiai Takuto in surprise.
Iiai Takuto looked a little embarrassed and nodded.
"I also know that Yasumi said behind my back that she wanted to squeeze me dry," Tiantang Qinghua said, "Reiji also said that after graduating from University, he would say goodbye to me, this imposter."
The three Children stopped making noise and listened quietly to Tiantang Qinghua's story.
Haibara Ai also raised her eyes to look at Tiantang Qinghua, waiting to eat Gossip.
"Qinghua, actually… actually everyone…" Iiai Takuto stammered for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable explanation.
Tiantang Qinghua suddenly changed to a calm and unhurried tone, "Iiai considering the problem of insufficient Food Ingredients for the Night, shows that Subconsciously he doesn't want to exploit you, but he didn't doubt and ask about some of the weirdness of the other two…"
Conan and the others all looked at Chi Feichei.
Miss Tiantang is imitating someone, right?
"If Not too stupid, then he already knows the Idea of the other two, but he won't say it, this is a…" Tiantang Qinghua paused, and did not say Chi Feichei's evaluation of 'men who have no opinion and are used to following the crowd', turned her head to look at Chi Feichei sitting in the Rear, the Teenager who was about her Age but seemed much more mature than her turned his head to look Outside the window, seemingly not Care About what they were saying at all, "In short, you can make good Friends."
Iiai Takuto was stunned for a moment, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Qinghua…"
Tiantang Qinghua shook her head, "This is what Chi Classmate told me that day. He also said that Reiji and Yasumi didn't really treat me as Friends. He proposed to take me for a drive that day to remind me of these things. Actually, I already understood it at that time, especially Yasumi… This Accident happened, and I found that living happily is the best thing, so I already proposed breaking up with Reiji before boarding the Helicopter, and he agreed. No Matter what Choice he makes in the future, it has nothing to do with me."
"It's good that you can think like this." Kisaki Eri showed a Smile on her Face.
Tiantang Qinghua had a Good Impression of Kisaki Eri and said sincerely, "However, I still want to Listen To your Idea, what you wanted to Say to me before…"
Kisaki Eri smiled noncommittally, "Since you have figured it out yourself, then I don't need to Say 'men are the kind of sloppy, lustful, fickle and greedy Creatures' anymore."
Chi Feichei couldn't help but take back his Line of Sight from Outside the window and looked at Kisaki Eri.
His Teacher is not here, so there is no need to open fire, right? Or is this Collective firepower coverage?
Putting aside other things, he objects to the 'sloppy' Point.
Conan also silently Staring at the Back of Kisaki Eri's Back in the front seat.
He, the Famous Detective of Justice, objects to all of them.
Even if he wants to take a Bath with Ran, that's not… No, no, he didn't want to.
…
That Night, after the Helicopter returned, Inspector Megure took Tushi Yicheng, the Wakura Family, and the Corpse away, and told the Villagers that someone would come to Help repair the Suspension Bridge in two days, and the Police will also send Police Officer to be stationed again.
The Next Day Night, a transport Helicopter landed at the Shrine Plaza in the Village.
Torches were burning around the Plaza, Koizumi Akako, draped in a dark red and black Robe, waited at the edge of the Plaza with Granny A-Fu and all the Villagers.
Chi Feichei came driving the Helicopter alone.
Time was too tight, and currently there was no one else in Japan who could make him feel at ease enough to entrust the Secret of 'he delivered Blood to Fifteen Night Village'.
After Fifteen Night Village disappears, if someone who remembers and knows about this Village is interested in the 'mystery of disappearance', and learns that someone transported Blood to Fifteen Night Village, then it is very likely that they will be linked together and investigate down this Clue.
Investigate the Blood banks of various medical institutions, investigate the Channel of Black Market purchasing Blood, investigate people who have recently purchased large quantities of Blood, investigate who instructed those people to Purchase Blood… As Long As you are determined to investigate, you will always find out something.
He came alone, which can prevent people with insufficient credibility from contacting these Things. Even if someone finds out that Chi Shinnosuke once asked people to urgently Purchase a large amount of Blood on the Black Market, it is difficult to link it with the disappearance of Fifteen Night Village.
When Chi Feichei opened the cargo hold, Koizumi Akako took off her Black Robe Hood, turned her head to the young Man Villagers beside her and Said, "Help move everything inside out."
"Okay!"
"Lady Hongko, please rest assured, leave everything to us!"
The Group of waiting Villagers were fanatical and active, howling and rushing into the cargo hold, which made Granny A-Fu look complicated.
Although she had seen Koizumi Akako's Divination Ability, seen Chi Feichei's abnormality that was not like Ordinary Person, and also believed that these two could make Fifteen Night Village completely Concealment, but overnight, these ten or so Villagers became so fanatical, especially when they Gaze at Koizumi Akako, their admiration and infatuation gave her an unspeakable Weird feeling.
Koizumi Akako saw Chi Feichei Turn Head to Look at those Villagers, raised her chin slightly, with Pride on her Face, and Said slowly, "This is my Personal Guard in Japan. When I transfer a batch of people and Cocoon Device from the Africa Base after a while, I will let them start special training."
Chi Feichei retracted his Line of Sight, "They look like they have good Physical Fitness."
Refrigeration Equipment were moved out batch by batch, and in addition, there were Magic Materials that Chi Feichei transported from Koizumi Akako.
Since she can borrow Satan's Power, Koizumi Akako is not satisfied with ordinary Illusion Magic, and plans to add some Materials to create an Illusion Magic similar to 'ghost hitting wall' on the periphery.
After everything was moved down, Koizumi Akako Stepped Forward and placed the Night Mirror on the Ground, Reached Out her hands in Black Robe, lingering with red Radiance, and Turn Head to Chi Feichei and Said, "Then the Magic Materials will be Troublesome for you, just place them at a few Points where you Confirm it is easy to break in."
Chi Feichei Summoning the Crow that had Followed all the way nearby.
Crows appeared out of thin air in Groups of three or five. Under Chi Feichei's Command, they 'cawed' and picked up the Magic Materials on the Ground and flew in all directions.
In the center of the Plaza, Koizumi Akako knelt and sat in front of the Night Mirror, stabilizing the Sealing Magic, and let the Villagers pour the Blood in the Blood Bag into the Mirror.
The Blood immediately sank downwards after touching the smooth Obsidian Mirror surface, as if it was a Pitch Black abyss.
Blood for 300 people, 1350 liters of whole Blood, so much Blood to be sealed in a Mirror, only Magic, this unscientific existence, can do it.
Two Hours later, the Crows that had buried the Magic Materials and returned one after another stopped at the periphery of the Plaza. Further inside were Granny A-Fu and other Villagers.
In the very center of the Plaza, Koizumi Akako Get Up and handed the Day Mirror to Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei summoned Feimo and let Feimo Grab the Day Mirror and fly into the Sky.
On the Ground, a red Magic Array Diagram, centered on the Night Mirror, quickly spread to the Surrounding Area.
A Black Shadow appeared Above the Night Mirror. At the Same Time, the Temperature around was also Descend a little bit. In the midsummer Weather, the Temperature was like late autumn turning to cold winter.
Chi Feichei and Koizumi Akako had no Interest in Hosting Folk Festival Activities, so naturally they did not Speak Out.
The Two People were Silence, and Granny A-Fu and other Villagers did not dare to Speak either.
In a piece of Silence and Sen Han, Granny A-Fu shivered and wrapped her white Robe tightly around her Body.
A Villager Discovered that the torches around Seemingly became much brighter, and quietly Observed the Surrounding Area with the corner of his Eye. Until he Discovered that the Forest was too Dark, he Subconsciously looked up at the Sky, and then froze in Place.
In the Sky, the round Moon Seemingly was being swallowed by something, and the edge of the Circle was dented downwards a little bit.
Lunar Eclipse!
It's not that the torches have become brighter, but that the Surrounding Area has become darker.
Under the cold Moonlight, he could vaguely See a little Black Point. That was the Crow Grab the Mirror and flying directly Above, but the Moon behind the Crow was becoming incomplete little by little.
On the Ground, the Magic Array Diagram centered on the Night Mirror was getting brighter and brighter, spreading and spreading to the Surrounding Area, and it was unknown where it had spread in the Village.
The Surrounding Villagers saw this Man looking up blankly at Above, and curiously looked up to Follow and Look, and endured the exclamation that was about to be called out. They secretly glanced at Koizumi Akako standing in the center of the Plaza, and saw that she was not disturbed by this solemn and solemn Festival Activity, then they looked up at the Sky again.
More and more Villagers Look Skyward. Chi Feichei also looked up and saw that it was a Lunar Eclipse, then retracted his Line of Sight and Look Towards the Black Shadow in the field.
Isn't it just a Lunar Eclipse? With Koizumi Akako, this unscientific existence, appearing, he Don't Think it is Weird.
He recognized the Magic Array Diagram on the Ground, which was the Same as the Pattern that would appear in his left Eye—
Holy Spirit Gate.
This is a Magic Array Diagram that communicates with Deity and borrows Divine Power, but outside the Main Body of the Holy Spirit Gate, there are some subtle Array Patterns, which are Array Patterns that Koizumi Akako uses Intention to dominate and build Illusion Magic.
Looking at it this way, the Black Shadow that appeared Above the Night Mirror is Satan.
The Black Shadow was Pitch Black, and vaguely could See a horned Human Shape. Black Fog was rising around the Body, and nothing else could be seen.
After more than ten minutes, the Moon was completely swallowed by Darkness, and the Shadow of Feimo and the Day Mirror Above disappeared from the Villagers' Line of Sight.
A strong Wind suddenly blew out the torches, and the Array Patterns glowing red on the Ground also dimmed little by little. Soon, the Villagers also fell into Pitch Blackness where they could not See their fingers.
Chi Feichei heard panicked exclamations in the Darkness and Said aloud, "Quiet."
The Villagers became quiet again.
In the Darkness, Koizumi Akako also Said aloud, "Stand in Original Place and don't move around. If you touch the Power because of moving around and are Killed, I won't Care About it."
Immediately, the Footsteps also stopped.
In the Pitch Blackness where you can't See your fingers, first a beam of Red Light Beam of Light shot up into the Sky from the Mountain on the North Side, and then, Light Beams of Light lit up one after another among the Surrounding Mountains.
Once Chi Feichei Looked at the Location, he Guess the current progress.
It Should be that the periphery of the Magic Array has extended to the Place where the Magic Materials are placed. Magic Power and Array Diagram are activating and melting those Magic Materials. Illusion Magic Should be almost done. Next is Building…
Koizumi Akako has already memorized the complete Layout Diagram. As Long As she thinks about it in her Heart, she will soon be able to use Satan's huge Magic Power to complete the Building.
The Red Light Beam of Light was not enough to illuminate the Village. The Villagers could only Listen To the strange rustling sounds coming from the Surrounding Area, huddled tightly together, and silently counted the Time passing by minute by second in their Hearts.
Chi Feichei looked up, preparing to See Feimo's Situation, but the Purple Radiance with the Holy Spirit Gate Pattern in his left Eye suddenly lit up uncontrollably. At the moment he looked up, the Purple Light projected onto the Day Mirror Grab by Feimo's Claw Above, and then quickly projected onto the Night Mirror placed on the Ground, penetrating the Satan Black Shadow Above the Night Mirror.
The next second, dazzling Purple Radiance overflowed from the Mirror and instantly covered the Village.
This Sudden Transformation caught Koizumi Akako off guard, and she looked in surprise at the Place where Chi Feichei was standing, but at this moment her eyes were full of dazzling Purple Light, and she couldn't See the Things around her at all.
(Outside the main text, full subscription readers are free… Hi, I've been busy writing this recently.)
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 873: Legend of the Sun God and Night God
The villagers raised their arms to shield their eyes, and only lowered them gradually after the dazzling light before them dimmed.
Chi Feichei's eyes returned to normal.
The purple and red radiance completely disappeared, and the Black Shadow blocking the Moon had moved away for the most part.
Soon, the last corner of the Moon that had been obscured also lit up, becoming round and full again, and once more showering light upon this greatly changed Land.
The shrine where they stood had already transformed into a Square Palace, constructed from Purple-Pink Agate Slab with complex circle patterns. Green and Ink-Black Vine as thick as arms hung down along the Courtyard, and Moonlight poured down from the four-story high square Courtyard, illuminating the surroundings like a palace in a Little Girl's fantasy.
The villagers were Dumbfounded, their expressions uniform:
(O)
Chi Feichei was Be Stunned, and turned his head to look at Koizumi Akako.
What was with this psychedelic color scheme? Was Hongzi planning to stage a Fairy Tale here?
Koizumi Akako was also Be Stunned, and turned her head to look at Chi Feichei.
Did the Child of Nature create so many vines just now using his ability?
The two realized they urgently needed a Communication.
Chi Feichei looked calmly at Granny A-Fu, "This is Butterfly Palace, the Priest's Residence. You will pray here from now on."
Koizumi Akako snapped back to reality, and also said calmly to Granny A-Fu, "The things from your shrine, I have already moved them all into the Palace. The Houses on both sides of the Avenue of the Dead that runs north and south, there are a total of five hundred, distribute them to the villagers as needed. The items from their original Homes are also Inside the Room. Have everyone light Torches in all the Buildings, and then identify their Houses based on the items Inside the Room."
"O-Okay!" Granny A-Fu was still a bit out of it.
"Gaa!" Non-Ink in the Sky flew down with the Day Mirror, and loosened its claws when it flew in front of Chi Feichei.
Chi Feichei Reach Out to grab the Day Mirror, and was not surprised when the Day Mirror suddenly disappeared into his Palm.
The Crystal Ball Said: After being used as a Medium, the Day Mirror and Night Mirror will become the keys to stabilize the outer Illusion Magic, choosing 'special' People as custodians.
If he and Koizumi Akako were present, then it would definitely choose him and Koizumi Akako. If Koizumi Akako was Offline, the Mirror would also choose one or two People with Magic Power affinity among the villagers present.
These were the two keys hidden in their bodies. Besides being able to choose to open or close the Environment Magic that enveloped the Village's periphery, they had no other use. Even adjusting the Structure of the Illusion Magic was impossible, there were only two choices—open, or close.
The Day Mirror was responsible for the half of the Illusionary Realm that was biased towards Attack.
For Example, triggering the Illusionary Realm would make People unconsciously feel irritable, regarding Companions as hateful enemies and launching Attacks.
It was also Possible to make People feel like they were in an Illusionary Realm filled with raging Fire and thick smoke. The Illusionary Realm itself caused no Damage, but it would be extremely Real. People who were easily susceptible to Psychological Suggestion might really die in the Illusionary Realm.
The Night Mirror was responsible for the half of the Illusionary Realm that was biased towards disorientation and confusion.
For Example, visual Illusions similar to ghost walls, where People in it would have a worse sense of Direction and Judgment, going around in circles in the Original Place but always feeling like they had walked very far, or unknowingly bypassing the Village and leaving.
Or it could silently Impact People's thinking ability, causing People to follow the characters that appeared in the Illusionary Realm and leave in a daze.
After leaving, not remembering the Things they saw in the Illusionary Realm was also the Effect of the Night Mirror controlling this half of the Illusionary Realm.
These two keys, no matter which one was opened, could prevent anyone from touching the true Face of Fifteen Night Village.
Non-Ink steadily landed on Chi Feichei's Shoulder, tilting its Head to nuzzle Non-Red who was looking up at it, indicating a greeting.
Koizumi Akako crouched down, touched the Night Mirror with her Hand, and after the Night Mirror disappeared into her Hand, she Said to Granny A-Fu again, "The Sun Pyramid, Moon Pyramid, and Feathered Serpent Temple Palace are not to be entered without Permission. During this Time, no one should try to leave the Village. After the Houses are distributed and everyone is settled, come to Moon Plaza to wait for me. You Should Understand where these Buildings are, Right?"
"Understood!" Granny A-Fu Nodded quickly, "The three Mountains surrounding the Village were previously called Sun Mountain, Moon Mountain, and God-Dwelling Mountain. We all Understand what this means."
"From now on, let's call this Fifteenth Night City."
Koizumi Akako Turned Around, gesturing with her Gaze for Chi Feichei to leave.
Only after the two left did the villagers breathe a long sigh of relief, looking around.
"It's Just Like being in a Dream..."
"Are these all Real?"
"This is the Real Butterfly Palace!"
There were also two Older Old Woman with Tears streaming down their Face, who walked to the Wall Side of the Palace, wanting to touch the Purple-Pink Wall, but hesitated to Reach Out.
Granny A-Fu walked to the Wall Side and Reached Out to touch the smooth, cool Stone material.
This was the Priest's Residence, Butterfly Palace, so she wouldn't dare not touch it, but when her Hand touched the coolness, her Heart still couldn't help but tremble.
She suddenly recalled the Dream of her Childhood, following beside her Priest Mother.
She had Asked her Mother, "Doesn't the Priest live in a beautiful Palace?"
Her Mother Said, "Royalty lives in Palaces, Priests live in Shrines."
"But in Legends, Priests live in Butterfly Palace," she, who had never seen Butterfly Palace, couldn't help but Fantasy, "It must be a Palace as beautiful as a Butterfly, Pink, with Patterns like Butterfly Wings."
Childish words caused her Mother to laugh.
After growing up, after the Wakura Family arrived, she also saw the Butterfly Palace in Teotihuacan City. It was a deserted and dilapidated Palace, but at that Time she was already a Mother of a twenty-year-old Girl, her Heart no longer had the Fantasy of Childhood, and she didn't feel disappointed. She Just respectfully observed the Butterfly Palace in the Photo, and deeply remembered the Place where their Faith originated.
And now, on a certain Day when she was over seventy years old, she had her own Butterfly Palace.
This Place would be where she carried out Activities and Preparation for sacrifices in the Afterwards, but her Mother and her Daughter were no longer here.
Her Mother lived to be over seventy years old before her Death, but her Daughter only lived to be over twenty years old. This was the greatest Regret and most piercing pain in her Life.
Granny A-Fu gently stroked the Wall with her rough Palm, Old Tears streaming down her Wrinkle-filled Face, "Machiko..."
If only her Daughter was still alive, how wonderful it would be. Her beautiful Daughter could live in a Palace like in a Fairy Tale World, Hosting the sacrificial affairs.
If her Daughter had married and had Children like ordinary People, Tushi Yicheng wouldn't have become like that, and maybe there would be a Daughter. By This Year, her Little Granddaughter would be almost twenty years old, as beautiful and Gentle as her Daughter was back then, and would take over the Responsibility and Right in her Daughter's Hands here, becoming the new Priestess of Butterfly Palace...
"Correct! This is the Real Butterfly Palace!"
The Emotions of the Older People Impacted the Young People, but most of the Young People's Emotions were much more positive and lighthearted.
"The Butterfly Palace in Teotihuacan City must have become dilapidated Stone Because the Deity left. Now Butterfly Palace has been revived in our Place!"
"Lady Hongko is the Night God, Right? Is the other Adult the Sun God?"
"It can't be wrong! The Mirrors have already made their Choice, and Lady Hongko urged the Mirrors to bring Darkness, and the other Adult used Purple Radiance to Summon Light. When the Divine Power of the two Gods Fused, the Holy City returned to the World!"
"But it's really unbelievable, I always Thought that Lady Hongko, such a Gentle and lovely Person, was the Sun God, and the other Adult, with his cold Face, Should be the Night God."
"What's so Strange about that? The Sun God is Originally a War God, of course he's more imposing!"
Granny A-Fu listened to the young villagers' chattering discussions, and burst into tears of laughter. She wiped the Tears from her Face, and Turned Around again to look at the villagers.
She had also always Thought that that Lord Chi was more like the Night God, but everyone's Statement was Also Correct. The Sun God was Originally a War God who needed living Human Hearts as sacrifices, but he could also bring Light to the World and bring growth to all Things...
The young villagers were still communicating excitedly.
"I suddenly became a Believer of the Night God, what should I do?"
"Hey hey, our big Bird's Outfit represents the Golden Eagle Warrior! Are you Betrayal the Sun God? He Ren, what do You Say?"
"I already believe in Lady Hongko, and I'm Lady Hongko's Jaguar Guard. Don't Ask me, I'll be a Jaguar Warrior... no, a Jaguar Guard from now on."
"Y-You guys... Humph! Anyway, I'll always be a Golden Eagle Warrior, believing in Lord Sun God, believing in the Golden Eagle Warrior of Strength and vitality!"
"Correct, a Man Should believe in Lord Sun God who has the name of War God!"
Seeing that the Young People in the Village were about to Start Doing and tear each other apart, Granny A-Fu quickly Speak Out, "Alright! Quiet! The two Adults have such a good Relationship, what's the meaning of us bickering? Don't forget, the Day God Mirror and Night God Mirror are both Treasures that we have worshiped for many years. Since the two Mirrors are so Similar, and since the two Mirrors can be worshiped together, then it shows that the Relationship between the two Adults is really good. Are you planning to learn from the Mesoamerican Civilization People who have already perished, disregarding the Intention of the two Adults and engaging in Internal Strife?"
Correct, they no longer needed to pursue Mesoamerican Civilization, they were the new generation of 'Mesoamerica' People.
The villagers were quiet for a Moment, and the Young People explained one after another.
"N-No, it's Just that we were Joking."
"I Think, the Mesoamerica People, it was Because they violated the Intention of the God Adults that the Gods left them in the End and let them perish."
"Correct, we must never repeat the same mistake!"
Granny A-Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and Said Seriously, "Don't forget the Instructions of the two Adults. Each family leave one Person and Follow me to identify the items Inside the House and claim your new Residence. The others bring Torches and light Torches around the Buildings to illuminate our Fifteenth Night City!"
"Oh!"
The villagers' responses were neat and powerful. They quickly divided the People. Children or Old Person with limited mobility went to identify Houses, while Young People and People in their prime went at the Fastest Speed to illuminate the entire City with Torches.
Everyone left Butterfly Palace, and while rushing to various Places, they couldn't help but look at this City that was like a myth and Legend with Eyes shining.
The steps outside Butterfly Palace were also made of Purple-Pink Agate Slab, extending from the ground all the way to the top floor of the Palace, and there was also an Altar for stargazing and Divination on the top floor.
The Roads that extended in all directions were paved with Black Marble with White Veins, solemn and quiet, spotless. The Avenue of the Dead that ran north and south was also made of the Same Stone material, but it was nearly six meters wide, extending straight out.
Square two-story Buildings were neatly arranged around the Avenue of the Dead, facing the four Directions squarely, with Courtyards in the center, built of White Marble with Black Veins, like white jade seals placed on black stone plates.
To the due east was a pure Golden Sun Pyramid, still reflecting Golden Light in the Moonlight.
To the north of the Avenue of the Dead was the Moon Pyramid reflecting Silver Gleam, as well as the equally Silver and bright Moon Plaza, while to the south, at the End of the Avenue, was the Feathered Serpent Temple Palace built of Obsidian.

Chapter 874 She Is Also Helpless
"Conch Palace is built with agate that is blue with circles of dark blue patterns, Jaguar Palace is built with agate that is orange with black patterns, and the Golden Eagle lives in a pyramid built with yellow agate."
On a City Tower of the Feathered Serpent Temple Palace, Koizumi Akako looked at the City below gradually illuminated by torches, and said with a smile, "There are also white agate pyramids, red and black patterned Agate Stone pyramids, Jade Bathhouse..."
Chi Feichei looked at the colorful pyramids, and after a while, he evaluated Expressionless, "So Imposing."
This is different from the solemn Base he imagined, it's like a Little Girl's fairytale Amusement Park.
But who told him to say 'You decide yourself' when Koizumi Akako talked to him about building materials...
"It's also Hard to find ores with a Crystal Ball, my eyes almost went blurry before I picked the right colors," Koizumi Akako looked at the dreamlike Scenery in the City, nodded slightly with satisfaction, and casually pulled up a Vine on the City Tower, "The Vines you added are just right, By the Way, the Trees outside the City have also grown taller, and even the Leaf are much denser..."
"It started on its own, I haven't found any changes in my Body yet, it seems to just make the surrounding Plant grow quickly, and..."
Chi Feichei Reach Out and put his Hand on the Statue of the City Tower Handrail, "This."
The twelve City Towers of the Feathered Serpent Temple Palace correspond to the Zodiac Constellations.
From the east where the Sun Pyramid is located, in order, they are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces.
To easily see the whole City, they stood at the Libra City Tower, and on each pillar of the City Tower, there was a Statue of a figure with eyes covered, holding a Sword in one hand and a balance scale in the other.
The Statue is only the size of an Adult's palm, and the Pattern of eyes with the Holy Spirit Gate is engraved on the back of the figure's head. Because the Statue is Pitch Black and shiny, it is difficult to see the Pattern on it at Night.
Koizumi Akako Reach Out and touched the Statue in front of her, and also touched the engraving on the back of the Statue's head, "This is... the Emblem of your Church?"
"It's also a Pattern representing my Eye," Chi Feichei withdrew his Hand, and Look Towards the rows of neat Houses in front, "Not just here, when I came here on the Street, I Specially touched the Houses where the Villager live, and there are also such engravings on the outer Wall, very hidden."
"Using Satan's Power, but in the end leaving your Mark," Koizumi Akako chuckled, "Your Eye really has Ideas, actually seizing the Right to leave a Mark at the last moment."
Chi Feichei was Silent for a moment, looking at it this way, his left Eye is indeed shameless, but an Eye doesn't need face, but he Realized other aspects, "Hongzi, if my Eye hadn't Suddenly started at the end, would Satan's Mark have been left in hidden places all over the City?"
Then if the entire Fifteenth Night City was left with Satan's Mark, would it become the root of a Disaster one day?
Satan is not a good God.
Koizumi Akako also Realized this, and Look Towards the Crystal Ball that was thrown Aside, "Say it, what's going on?"
"Uh, Lady Hongko, I don't know either," the Crystal Ball said busily, "I just Divination that there are two Mirrors in this Village that can be used to borrow Satan's Power, As For whether there will be Hidden Danger, that is related to the Secret of the Deity, I have No Method to know."
Feimo stood on Chi Feichei's Shoulder, and couldn't help but 'ga ga' Call twice, "Master, I really Don't Know whether this Crystal Ball is reliable or unreliable."
"In short, the Mark left is yours, not Satan's, so there is No Need to Worry too much," Koizumi Akako slowed down, and Look Towards the glittering Sun Pyramid with Expectation, then, her Face stiffened for a moment, "But Why do they think you are the God of Sun?"
"Yes," the Crystal Ball couldn't help but Say, "Child of Nature, from the Angle of the Zodiac Constellations, your Scorpio's guardian star is Pluto, and from the Angle of Yin Yang Theory circulated in China, you were born in Yin Year, Yin Month, Yin Day, Yin Hour, which is too far from the God of Sun!"
"Did you deduce Yin and Yang from my Birthday?" Chi Feichei Asked.
"I Divination it," the Crystal Ball was very frank, "I Don't Know Yin Yang Theory, but the Divination result is like this."
Chi Feichei 'Uh-huh' a Sound, and did not Ask further.
For a Crystal Ball of the Western Magic system, asking about China's fortune telling is indeed cross-border, but the Original Consciousness's Birthday is really special, if it were in a supernatural Novel, it would be the Pace of being regarded as a Sacrifice or Container in minutes.
Koizumi Akako was still depressed, "Now the Mirror can't be taken out even if we want to, we can only wait for it to disappear, if I had known earlier, I would have exchanged with you."
Chi Feichei put his hands on the Guardrail, directly exposing the Reason for Koizumi Akako's depression, "If you want to go to the Sun Pyramid, just go, and no one will stop you."
"Everyone thinks I am the Night God, wouldn't it be Weird if I ran to the Sun Pyramid every day?" Koizumi Akako thought for a while, and then laughed, "But who told us to have a good Relationship?"
The wind in the Summer Night was gentle, under the Round Moon, the City illuminated by torches was dreamlike and ancient.
Two People stood on the City Tower and Looked, and neither of them Spoke again.
Chi Feichei Looked and Looked, and his Approach went astray.
If we were to sell Housing here as real estate, we could set the world's highest Price...
Koizumi Akako bent over, her Arm resting on the Guardrail, Looked at the scattered Firelight in the distance, "There is still a Portion of Agate Stone transferred here, I used Satan's Power to make Furniture, Dishes and other Things by the way, and distributed them in various Houses, Feathered Serpent Temple Palace has them, and Villager Home also has them, which is considered a Small Gift for them."
Chi Feichei silently calculated.
If we also give away a full set of Agate Stone Furniture and Dishes, the Price... no, Things made with Magic Power, the quality and Appearance are first-class, and they can be collected as Work of Art just by taking them out.
Koizumi Akako was Silent for a while, and then Said, "After thousands or tens of thousands of years, this place may be unearthed as Ruins, Fifteenth Night City Ruins... Hey, Child of Nature, You Say, could the Faith in those Gods in the past have also appeared like this?"
"Perhaps."
Two People chatted casually for a while, until Granny A-Fu led the Villager and walked along the Avenue of the Dead, they temporarily stopped.
"Let's assign Tasks, I'll take people to Test the Illusionary Realm effect, and you collect the Villager's Blood." Chi Feichei Leap directly off the City Tower, stretched out Claws between his fingers, and scratched down along the outer Wall of the City Tower to slow down his falling Speed.
Koizumi Akako listened to the harsh Sound of Claws scratching against the Obsidian Wall, and hurriedly poked her Head out and Said, "Don't scratch the City Tower!"
"Just consider it quality inspection."
Chi Feichei casually found an Excuse, landed steadily, and retracted his Claws.
Walking down from the City Tower is too Slow, he wanted to be a mage flying around, but he couldn't feel anything like Magic Power in his Body, he was also very helpless.
On the City Tower, Koizumi Akako put away the Crystal Ball and took out a Broom.
Walking down from the City Tower is too Slow, she wanted to Slip down like Child of Nature, but she didn't have long and sharp Claws, she was also very helpless.
When Granny A-Fu led the Villager to the front, Chi Feichei picked ten Villager who were strong and walked Fast, and went out of the Village to Test the Illusionary Realm.
Day Mirror and Night Mirror control Illusionary Realm are currently in the open State, and there is No Need to close them, the Villager listened to Chi Feichei's Instruction, tried to leave the Village from different Points, and as soon as they reached the edge of the Illusionary Realm, they fell into the Illusion.
The Villager who were spinning around were pulled back by Chi Feichei, and the Villager who were fighting each other were also easily separated by Chi Feichei. He is more suitable than Koizumi Akako for this kind of work that requires Handle Violence.
The Test took ten minutes, and the round trip took two Hour.
When Chi Feichei returned to the Feathered Serpent Temple Palace, it was already four o'clock in the Early Morning.
The Villager and Granny A-Fu were sent to Rest, and the remaining Chi Feichei and Koizumi Akako sat in a Lobby of the Feathered Serpent Temple Palace, fiddling with the Blood collected by Koizumi Akako.
Now the Illusion is effective on the Villager, if a Villager accidentally breaks into the Illusion, it is estimated that they will also be lost or die inside, Probably because the Blood Sacrifice borrowed Satan's Power, there is only one Method to Solve it: Chi Feichei and Koizumi Akako together remember the Taste of each other's Blood.
As Long As they remember the Taste of each other's Blood, they can let the Illusion set up a 'one-to-one' Switch, after they choose to turn it on or off, they can allow a certain Villager to obtain the Right of passage, or deprive someone of the Right of passage.
And the Method to remember the Taste of Blood, of course, is... drinking Blood.
A Test Tube of Blood was collected from a Villager, and Chi Feichei and Koizumi Akako divided it equally, tasting it Portion by Portion.
Of course, we also need to add the Blood of the Golden Eagle and most Animal living in the Illusion.
"Start with Animal Blood first," Chi Feichei Looked at the Memo attached to the Test Tube, found two new Test Tube, divided the Blood into two equal Parts, and handed one Part to Koizumi Akako, "The Golden Eagle Boss's."
Koizumi Akako took the Test Tube, Staring at the bright red Blood inside, and was Silent.
She had used Test Tube to hold Magic Potion, this was the First Time using a Test Tube as a Container to drink Blood.
Chi Feichei drank his Test Tube of Blood, and aftertaste it for a moment, "Like grilled steak."
Koizumi Akako Looked at Chi Feichei with a Complex Gaze.
The Style is slightly Wrong.
Her and the Evil Child of Nature's Behavior is just like two Vampire.
Grilled meat flavor? Blood has so many flavors besides the taste of rust?
Chi Feichei reminded, "Don't dawdle, tonight the Two People of us have to taste more than six hundred portions of Blood."
Koizumi Akako didn't hesitate anymore, raised her Head and drank the half Test Tube of Blood in her Hand in one gulp, Be Confused for a moment, and aftertaste the Taste she just Felt, "Huh? It really is grilled meat flavor."
"Then it seems that there is no Problem with my Taste," Chi Feichei took the Test Tube in Koizumi Akako's Hand, cleaned it, divided the next Portion of Blood, and handed it to Koizumi Akako, "The Golden Eagle second's."
Correct, Blood originally has a comprehensive Taste that is slightly salty and has a taste of rust, the Blood of Creatures is basically this Taste, but at the moment when the Blood entered his mouth just now, he actually tasted the Taste of grilled meat.
Similar to grilled steak, well-done with black pepper sauce...
Koizumi Akako didn't think about whether drinking Blood was Weird anymore, curiously drank the Golden Eagle second's Blood, and aftertaste it and Said, "This Portion is still the Taste of grilled steak, a bit tender, maybe medium-well..."
Chi Feichei drank the Blood, Nod and agreed with Koizumi Akako's metaphor, and began to divide the Golden Eagle third's Blood.
Koizumi Akako tasted actively, "This time it's still the Taste of grilled steak, but the doneness is even more tender."
Two People tasted Portion by Portion.
Rabbit's Blood is mostly herbaceous and fragrant, Squirrel's Blood has a mellow, hazelnut-like Taste, and different Rabbits or Squirrels have subtle Differences, some are sweeter, some are lighter, and there are also Differences in the degree of fragrance.
But it's very Weird, Two People can guarantee that As Long As they have tasted it carefully, they will not forget that Taste.
After tasting the Blood of those Animals, Non-Ink and Heiji also contributed Blood, Non-Ink's Blood is smoother and slightly spicy, and Heiji's has a heavy feeling and is slightly sweet.
Let's add more chapters!
