Anyone who steps on it will fall if they are not careful. No wonder the girl fell flat on her face.
Li Muzhi looked up and saw the direction the two people left, which was not the same.
So he turned around and followed the girl in plain clothes.
Although Li Muzhi did not learn stealth, relying on his strong physical fitness, it was more than enough for him to track an ordinary person.
At first he was worried that the girl who did such a thing must be no simple person.
But I soon realized that I was overthinking. She was just an ordinary teenage girl and there was nothing extraordinary about her.
He followed her like this for half an hour.
Until a Western-style church came into view.
Li Muzhi frowned. He originally thought that this girl was a member of a criminal organization, but now it seems that she has to repent after doing something bad?
Just as he was struggling over whether to continue following into the church.
A woman in her forties suddenly jumped out from the nearby intersection. Her face was similar to that of the girl. She grabbed the girl's hand.
His face was filled with anxiety that could not be concealed: "Haruko, how long do you plan to live here?"
"Mom?" The girl called Haruko was stunned at first, but immediately took a few steps back, with a vigilant look on her face: "Don't worry about me, I'm very happy now."
"You have been brainwashed, come back with me!" The woman grabbed her hand and tried to drag her away forcefully.
"No!" Haruko screamed, and threw her mother to the ground with a violent swing, while yelling at her: "You don't care about me at all, but now you come to pretend to be my mother, don't you think it's ridiculous!"
The woman was frightened by her daughter's ferocious look for a moment and sat on the ground with a look of disbelief on her face.
Haruko just glanced at it indifferently, turned around and ran towards the church.
The woman covered her cheeks with her hands and her body was shaking, obviously she was crying.
At this moment, a row of tissues suddenly stretched out from the side.
"Maybe we can talk." Li Muzhi stretched out his hand and helped the man up.
The two sat on a wooden bench not far away. The woman held a tissue in her hand and kept wiping her tears, but her emotions seemed to be more stable.
"This should be considered as abduction. You should call the police directly." Li Muzhi looked at the heartbroken mother and tried to make his voice sound gentler.
"It's useless." The woman shook her head. "Haruko volunteered and she's over 18 years old. Her freedom is not restricted in any way, so the police can't file a case."
As he spoke of this, he became more and more emotional and tears began to flow uncontrollably.
"It's all my fault. This child has no father. I'm too busy with work to take care of her, so she feels lonely."
"Yeah." Li Muzhi nodded. He had already gotten the information he wanted from her description.
Looking at this mother with a painful face, my heart softened for no reason: "I am a private detective and I am investigating this church. If there is any latest news, I will inform you as soon as possible."
"Really?" There was a glimmer of hope in the woman's eyes, as if she were someone desperate and grasping at the last straw.
"Yeah." Li Muzhi nodded, and then the two exchanged contact information. The woman left with many thanks.
Li Muzhi did not lie to her, because he did want to investigate this place, but his purpose was to find the monsters that harmed humans.
Chapter 192 The Improper Nun
Li Muzhi is not a messenger of justice. He targets monsters that harm humans in order to avoid attracting the attention of the Special Affairs Section.
Looking up at the church, it is a small church that covers a small area and can accommodate dozens of people.
There is a five-story building behind the church, with daily necessities such as underwear and bed sheets drying on the balcony.
Li Muzhi observed for a while and found that they were all women's clothes, so it was obvious that there was no man living there.
The church and the small building are surrounded by walls, with only an iron gate at the entrance, as if it is a world isolated from the outside world.
However, the iron gate was wide open, and the girl named Haruko had just entered through the iron gate.
From time to time, women came out, ranging in age from 16 to 40, and dressed differently.
The only thing they have in common is that their looks are above average.
They all had pious and happy smiles on their faces, and their mental states were completely different from those of the migrant workers out there.
Just as the woman said, there is no restriction on the freedom of residents here and they can enter at will.
Nothing unusual was noticed from the outside, and Li Muzhi continued to walk towards the open iron gate.
Seeing him approaching, the women just glanced at him indifferently and turned their heads away.
This made Li Muzhi secretly surprised. Considering his looks, the women here behaved very peacefully.
Unlike the occasional women approaching me while walking on the street, it seems that religion can really have an effect on abstinence.
Just as he was about to pass through the iron gate, a nun in a black robe, a white collar, and her hair covered in a black hat walked out from the side.
She walked up to Li Muzhi with a smile on her face, made the sign of a cross on her chest, and then spoke softly: "Sir, what can I do for you to come to our monastery?"
"I just moved here not long ago. I heard there is a church here, so I wanted to come and pray." Li Muzhi had a silly smile on his face and touched his head, looking like a young boy.
"So you are the Lord's servant." The nun's smile seemed to have a comforting effect. At the same time, she placed her hands on her chest as if praying devoutly. After a while, she said, "I'm sorry, this is a convent."
After saying that, he pointed to the small sign next to him with his eyes.
Li Muzhi looked over and saw a sign saying "Convent, no men allowed."
"Sorry, I'm actually a transgender." Li Muzhi had no intention of leaving and looked serious. He had already felt that there was something wrong with this black-robed nun and she was not like an ordinary human being.
And there was a fishy smell on her body, wafting out from under her nun's skirt, which symbolized holiness.
The smell was very faint and most people couldn't smell it at all, but Li Muzhi's five senses were different from ordinary people, and he could smell it when she approached.
Now he was obviously looking for trouble, and at the same time he looked around. The people around him didn't seem to notice anything unusual here and were still busy with their own things.
Songs of praise to the Lord could be heard coming from a church not far away. Apparently a religious ceremony such as a chorus was taking place inside.
No matter how you look at it, it is a normal monastery.
"Uh..." The nun's originally peaceful face suddenly became strange, and she looked Li Muzhi up and down.
She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment. It was obvious that she had never encountered such a situation before.
After a long while, he managed to utter: "Sir, please stop joking."
"All believers of the Lord should be equal." Li Muzhi continued, while looking around carefully and quickly memorizing the layout of the monastery in his mind: "You are discriminating against sex!"
"Sir, if you make trouble again, I will call the police." After a moment's hesitation, the nun decisively chose to use public power.
This surprised Li Muzhi a little. He originally thought that they would use some methods that are more in line with the other world to solve the problem.
According to the common sense that Tsuchimikado Setsuna taught him, whether it is a monster or a cultivator, they are very reluctant to mix with public power.
"It seems I can only come again next time." Li Muzhi glanced around. By this time, he had memorized the layout of the monastery in his mind.
It is equivalent to opening the map and you can sneak in at any time later.
Just as he was about to leave, the singing in the church stopped, and then more than a dozen young girls in white nun uniforms walked out of the church door.
Walking in front was a Western woman in her thirties, wearing a black nun's uniform and with an elegant temperament.
She had curly golden hair, one hand holding a silver cross on her chest, and the other holding a black-covered book.
Her expression is pious and sacred, and her temperament is particularly outstanding among the group of girls.
She raised her head and looked over here, and her eyes met Li Muzhi's in the air.
"She is a transcendent." Li Muzhi quickly came to the conclusion that the black book and the cross in her hands were surrounded by spiritual energy. This feeling was similar to the feeling given by his own boy cutting the saddle steel.
However, the power surrounding Doujikiri is disturbing, while in her hands is the spiritual power that only humans have.
In other words, the book in her hand is also a prop with spiritual power.
It has been confirmed that she is not a monster, and staying here will not provide any more clues.
"I will file a complaint against you for gender discrimination." He pretended to be furious and said something harsh to the nun standing in front of him.
Then he left with an unwilling expression, just like a pervert who wanted to sneak into the women's locker room but was discovered.
"Who was the gentleman who just spoke to you?" The elegant nun walked over, looked in the direction where Li Muzhi left, and asked softly.
"Master Candice, it's another perverted man trying to sneak in." The nun looked disdainful. When she looked at Candice, her face turned red for no reason and she said softly, "Master, please rest assured. No one can disturb our happiness."
"Yes." Candice retracted her gaze and looked at the nun. Her expression was sacred, and with her three-dimensional facial features, she looked like a messenger of God in the legend: "Under the Lord's illumination, we can all get true happiness."
Time quickly came to the next day. When Li Muzhi entered the classroom, he glanced at Fujiwara Akane's seat and found that she still hadn't come to class.
He couldn't help but frowned, sat back in his seat, and patted Uesugi Xia Xiang in the front row.
"Do you know why Fujiwara Akane hasn't come to class yet?"
"Ah?!" Uesugi Xia Xiang was in a daze and was startled by Li Muzhi's sudden action. He stood up suddenly from his seat.
"Hey, why are you reacting so strongly?"
"I..." Uesugi Xia Xiang had a complicated expression and looked at Li Muzhi, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"If you have something to say, just tell me. Given our relationship, I will definitely help you." When Li Muzhi saw her hesitating, he knew that this one of the few friends who didn't covet his body must have something on her mind.
As a result, Shangshan Xiaxiang seemed to jump up when he heard it, and bit his lips tightly with his teeth: "I will never admit that you are my father!"
Chapter 193 Fujiwara Ryoko's Choice
Uesugi Xia Xiang's action attracted the attention of the students around him, and their eyes turned towards him with resentment.
This guy really doesn't care about food or meat. Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because he's handsome? He even wants such a cute girl to call him daddy.
She is not like her senior schoolmate or aunt, who makes people feel stunning at first sight, but she is a cute girl next door who is pleasing to the eye.
Uesugi Xia Xiang immediately realized that she had made too much noise, her face turned red, and she sat back in her seat in a hurry.
He looked at Li Muzhi with resentment, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't look at me like that."
"I..." Uesugi Xia Xiang struggled, and looked around to make sure that other students were not paying attention to this side.
Then he lowered his voice and said with a conflicted look: "If... you are willing to be nice to my mother, I can consider agreeing to your relationship."
The tone was filled with reluctance.
