It is the one that has left its name in history.
"Four minutes and fifty-five seconds."
About four minutes and fifty-five seconds before the Metropolitan Police Department arrived at the scene, Yohoshi and Yotsuya Miko arrived at the largest exhibition hall of the Kyoto City Museum.
What caught the eye was the long sword that occupied the largest glass exhibition hall. Even in the dark, it was still flashing with an inexplicable light, and a scabbard of simple style placed beside it.
There were four large, vigorous and powerful characters written on the sign next to it.
Onimaru Kuninaga
Facing the long sword in the display cabinet, Ye Xing and Yotsuya Miko looked at each other, and they both shook their heads.
"wrong."
The worst possible scenario occurred.
The long sword in the display cabinet is not from Onimaru Kunitsuna, but a replica.
Although the appearance is made to look very similar, psychics like Yoshitani Miko can tell it apart instantly.
There was no spiritual energy at all.
Chaoliangshe already had a plan for this.
"Open your eyes, Baimu!"
Following Yotsuya Miko's gentle shout, twelve of the thirteen eyes on Baimu's body slowly closed.
Only the one eye that belonged to the killer ghost was left.
All of Baimu's power is concentrated on this one eye.
"Here."
Baimu's cold voice sounded, and he walked towards a certain direction behind the exhibition hall.
In the legend, Baimu is a monster that steals other people's eyes and attaches them to its own body.
Once she has gathered a hundred eyeballs, no exorcist will be able to stop her power.
This is the origin of the name Baime.
The killer ghost's eyeballs have a very special function, which is to track the traces of "spirits".
Moreover, the compatibility with Baimu is perfect.
Even if a powerful spiritual creature like Onimaru Kunigasuna is not in this place, as long as the killer ghost's eyeballs are used to track the remaining traces of spiritual power, the location of Onimaru Kunigasuna can be found.
Under the guidance of Baime, Yohoshi and Yotsuya Miko found a corner of the exhibition hall that looked like a wall but was actually a secret door.
After passing through a passage more than ten meters long, the two came to a metal door.
Baimu pointed with his finger and spoke softly.
"Onimaru Kunitsuna should be in here."
085 Yotsuya Miko's new ability, surrounded by the Metropolitan Police Department
Yotsuya Miko knew it without Hyakume's reminder.
Even though there was a thick metal door between them, she could still feel the powerful spiritual energy emanating from it.
Even in the air, thick golden particles appeared, making Yotsuya Miko's vision a little blurry.
This was the first time she had seen psychic energy of such high density.
Even the goat-headed god in the shrine, with its domineering and oppressive aura, was nothing compared to the scene before them.
only...
Yotsuya Miko looked at the two keyholes on the metal door with a frown on her face.
"Is this a mechanical lock?"
Ye Xing nodded slightly, took two steps forward, squatted down and carefully observed the keyhole, and said in a calm tone.
"Yes, it's the kind of security lock that can only be unlocked by using two keys at the same time. It has no electronic structure and is a purely mechanical lock."
Electronic locks and mechanical locks each have their own advantages, and it is hard to say which one is safer.
The use of mechanical locks is probably because the museum director feels that it is better to keep modern technology as little as possible in a place where antique treasures are stored.
He is also a particular person.
"Then can you open it? Can't you pick locks?"
Hearing this, Ye Xing turned his head to look at Yotsuya Jianzi, then shook his head with a dumb smile.
"How is that possible? I can pick locks, but that's limited to residential security doors and the like. I might be able to give this level of mechanical lock a try, but it would take at least four or five hours."
When Yotsuya Kenko heard this, a look of worry appeared in his golden eyes.
"We don't have that much time, how about... come back next time?"
"no more chance."
Ye Xing's tone was very calm, without any panic or anxiety.
"We have triggered the alarm this time, and Onimaru Kunitsuna will be moved away immediately. After all, this is a famous sword that has been handed down from generation to generation in Sakura Province. If it is lost, even the mayor of Kyoto City cannot bear the responsibility."
"What should I do?"
Although it was silent, Yotsuya Miko knew that time was passing by every second.
There is not much time left for myself and Yexing.
"Um..."
Ye Xing hesitated for a few seconds before speaking.
"Let your Hundred Eyes concentrate and try to see if her sight can penetrate the outer layer of the metal and see through the structure of the keyhole. Then tell me."
"this...?"
Hearing this, Yotsuya Miko was a little at a loss.
Can my Baimu do such a thing?
She subconsciously wanted to turn around and ask Baimu, but suddenly remembered that Ye Xing said that she was Baimu and Baimu was her.
After growing to thirteen eyes, Baimu already possessed enough power.
But strength alone is completely useless.
The key point is how to transform the "power" in Baimu's body into "ability" that can be exerted?
Yotsuya Miko recalled an analysis that Futaba Rio had done after becoming a psychic.
The embodiment of the soul is the manifestation of the user's own soul and inner self.
Whether it's her Hundred Eyes or Futaba Rio's Bone Girl, their appearance and abilities are all related to their thoughts when they awaken.
Moreover, Futaba Rio had another speculation.
Not just when it was first born.
Even if the soul has been materialized, it will still be affected by the psychic's own inner thoughts to a certain extent.
In other words.
As long as the soul is materialized and devoured enough evil spirits and possesses enough power, combined with the psychic's own thoughts, new abilities can be unlocked.
Now, it's time to verify Futaba Rio's speculation.
"call.,.."
Yotsuya Miko let out a long sigh and focused all his attention on the two keyholes in front of him.
At this moment, she felt that the world had become quiet.
The passage of time seemed to stop at this moment.
The dark golden particles in the air slowly disappeared.
What came into view, occupying Yotsuya Miko's entire field of vision, were only the two keyholes on the metal door.
Baimu, who was standing behind her, slowly closed his left eye, hiding the eyeball of the killing ghost.
In the right eye socket, which was originally just a dark and empty hole, an eyeball that was shining with pale golden light and was exactly the same as Yotsuya Miko's eye gradually appeared.
"Open your eyes..."
Yotsuya Miko gritted her teeth and growled.
"Hundred eyes!"
Along with her low shout, Baimu's golden right eye was fully formed, emitting a dazzling light.
"I saw it."
Baimu's voice was still as clear and gentle as ever, but in her eyes, the outer shell of the metal keyhole had disappeared, and what she could see was the sophisticated and complex internal structure.
After hearing her answer, Yotsuya Miko finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then she noticed a new problem.
It is true that Baimu can see and describe the internal structure of a mechanical lock in words.
But language communication is ultimately limited.
Yotsuya Miko herself does not know how to pick a lock, nor has she studied the professional knowledge in this area. As the embodiment of her soul, Hyakume naturally knows nothing about it.
Is it really possible for Ye Xing to open such a complicated mechanical lock just by verbal communication within just a few minutes?
Yotsuya Miko frowned, and a strange idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
She turned around and looked at Baimu: "The vision of all the eyes on your body is interconnected, right?"
"Yes."
"Then can you dig out one of your eyes and put it on Yexing's body so that he can also see the internal structure of the keyhole?"
"No."
Baime shook his head and looked at Yotsuya Miko as if he was looking at a fool.
"I am the embodiment of your soul. Even if I want to merge with a human, the target can only be you. Besides, there are no extra holes on his body, right? Can I put my eyeballs into his nose?"
Yotsuya Miko couldn't refute it.
How to refute this?
Baimu is the embodiment of her soul. The fact that she could say such things shows that she herself thinks her proposal is outrageous.
This is tantamount to confronting oneself.
"but..."
Baimu suddenly changed the subject.
"If I were to attach my eyeballs to something that also belongs to the spirit, we could indeed achieve shared vision."
Yotsuya Jianzi seemed to be thinking about what he heard.
"That is to say..."
She and Baimu looked at Ye Xing who was standing beside them and said in unison.
"Ghost hands."
"Oh, I got it."
Hearing the words of this man and spirit, Ye Xing was not surprised at all.
"come out."
Following his command, the pale ghost hand, which had grown into an arm, appeared in mid-air.
"Get smaller."
Hearing Ye Xing's order, the pale ghost hand raised its middle finger.
Of course, this is not meant to express contempt.
It used its middle finger to replace its head, and after slightly bending it a few times, which was equivalent to nodding, it quickly shrank to the size of a normal human arm.
"Do you still have this ability?"
