"..." Beichuan Si glanced again at Gangye Yoshiko, but didn't speak.

How should this be put?

Every prisoner here is a fervent fan of the Beichuan Shinto Sect?

However, upon further thought, Beichuan Si realized it wasn't really surprising.

After all, Japan has always been a nation of multiple religious beliefs.

The understanding of religion here isn't narrowly confined to what one must or mustn't do.

During the stagnation period following Japan's rapid economic growth, people also needed various forms of spiritual support, and religion was one of them.

Beichuan Si was just a bit taken aback.

Because he always had the feeling that, at this rate, the Beichuan Divine Society was truly going to start developing in all directions.

Originally, Beichuan Si's approach was merely one of tacit approval, and he had delegated full responsibility to Shen Gu Mirai and Qiuxiao Yunai.

That the Beichuan Divine Society could grow to this scale was indeed an unexpected feeling for him, who had been a hands-off manager.

While Beichuan Si was pondering this, Gangye Yoshiko brought the car to a halt.

She rolled down the window, handed her special pass to the guard, and after waiting for the guard's verification, she parked the car in the parking lot.

Led by Gangye Yoshiko, the two quickly arrived in a small room.

This room was divided by an interrogation glass, its interior empty.

On Beichuan Si's side, the interrogation room had only a few soft chairs, and a closer look revealed that the room opposite, beyond the glass, was furnished in exactly the same way.

A small wooden door, soft chairs.

At the same time, there hung a surveillance camera in the corner of the ceiling.

Everything gave off an indescribable sense of severity and pressure.

"Please wait a moment."

Gangye Yoshiko said simply.

After roughly three minutes, there finally was a stir in the room opposite.

The only small wooden door opened, and a familiar face entered Beichuan Si's view.

Shirasaki Chiyoda.

It was evident; she seemed to be doing fairly well in prison, her face still had color.

But she looked as though she had been dragged out against her will to meet with someone, an impatient expression across her face.

Perhaps, in Shirasaki Chiyoda's view, nothing was more important than spreading the word of the Beichuan Shinto Sect, no matter who wished to see her?

But the next moment, when she saw Beichuan Si—

"Be, beichuan Lord God! My Beichuan God!!!?"

It was less surprise and more lunacy.

Shirasaki Chiyoda's face was awash with fanaticism as she charged toward the interrogation glass.

Bang!!!

Under Beichuan Si's gaze, Shirasaki Chiyoda, clad in a restraint suit, slammed into the interrogation glass so hard her head started to bleed.

But she paid it no mind, continuing to smash her head against the glass like a madwoman, and at the same time, that crazily obsessed voice also carried through:

"Beichuan God! Beichuan God! Have you finally come to see me?! I knew it! I knew it! Beichuan God would never abandon his believers!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Blood flowed profusely!

Shirasaki Chiyoda completely disregarded the blood covering her face, her face pressed against the glass, exerting such force as if intent on crushing her own neck.

The sudden incident stunned the guards, but without hesitating for more than two seconds, they rushed forward to pull Shirasaki Chiyoda away from the glass and forcefully pushed the shouting, screaming woman back behind the small wooden door.

Silence—

Observing the now motionless room opposite, Beichuan Si, who had been silent the whole time, turned to look at Gangye Yoshiko.

Gangye Yoshiko was also looking at Beichuan Si.

The two locked eyes for a long time, but it was Gangye Yoshiko who couldn't contain herself and spoke first:

"To be honest, I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

Her tone carried a sense of disbelief.

This was indeed the most bizarre interrogation she had ever seen.

After all, the criminals brought out didn't get nearly as excited to see their blood relatives as Shirasaki Chiyoda had just now.

Shirasaki Chiyoda had actually slammed her head against the police interrogation glass relentlessly until her face was bloody and still she didn't stop.

But Beichuan Si didn't show much surprise, as he had mentally prepared himself for this before coming.

Because the subject was this madwoman.

After some thought, Beichuan Si asked, "What should we do next?"

Upon hearing his question, Gangye Yoshiko didn't know how to respond immediately, she could only gesture for a pause:

"Hold on, I'll make a call to check on the situation."

She quickly dialed a number.

Amidst a brief exchange of pleasantries and inquiries, Gangye Yoshiko abruptly ended the call, then turned and told Beichuan Si, "I checked the situation, Shirasaki Chiyoda has been taken for treatment. If we want another meeting, it can only be arranged for seven o'clock tonight."

"..." Beichuan Si.

If that's the case, there's nothing to be done.

He nodded thoughtfully and then stood up saying, "Let's go."

"Where to?" Gangye Yoshiko asked from behind.

"To eat." Beichuan Si said expressionlessly.

Now they could only return after dinner to inquire about Shirasaki Chiyoda's specific situation.

...

Beichuan Si and Gangye Yoshiko casually grabbed something to eat outside and then talked a bit about some common knowledge of grudges before heading back to the interrogation room just in time.

The interrogation glass had already been cleaned and was sparkling.

And across the room, a calmer Shirasaki Chiyoda with a bandage on her forehead was staring unblinkingly at Beichuan Si as he just walked into the room.

As soon as he appeared, the woman looked almost like she couldn't contain herself again.

"Beichuan God!!!!"

Her face filled with zeal as she tried to stand and bang her face against the glass again, but failed due to her ankles being shackled.

"You seem to be doing quite well," Beichuan Si, already seated, said calmly into the microphone.

"This is all thanks to believing in Beichuan God!"

Shirasaki Chiyoda shouted loudly.

"Is that so?" Beichuan Si was noncommittal.

He was indifferent to Shirasaki Chiyoda's fervent expression, and said with a cold tone, "I've come to see you because there are some things I need you to answer."

Apparently sensing the coldness in Beichuan Si's tone, Shirasaki Chiyoda trembled with excitement, stuttering with a fervent voice:

"Only, only if Beichuan God asks. I will tell you anything, as long as I know! Anything at all!"

Gangye Yoshiko, standing on the other side, shuddered with a chill at the sight of her obsessively infatuated expression.

At the same time, a wicked thought flashed through her mind.

Perhaps this is someone with an advanced case of Beichuan Dependency Syndrome.

Thank goodness I'm not like that.

While Gangye Yoshiko was pondering, Beichuan Si's voice rang out again:

"Although I don't know what you're thinking about, Liangzi, I can tell you it's definitely not what you imagine."

He turned back to look through the glass at Shirasaki Chiyoda, his tone unchanged: "I have no fondness for this woman at all, she is merely an extremely vicious murderer, and moreover, mentally unstable."

Hearing Beichuan Si's assessment, Shirasaki Chiyoda twitched the corners of her mouth, her face showing an extremely submissive and fervent expression: "Yes! Just as Beichuan God says! It's such a lowly me who needs the Divine Power of Beichuan God to correct! I am beyond saving, only Beichuan God... Meeting Beichuan God was the most right thing in my life!"

Err...

This couldn't even be called Beichuan Dependency Syndrome anymore, could it? This woman was indeed, as Beichuan Si said, a bona fide madwoman.

Gangye Yoshiko looked at Shirasaki Chiyoda, touching her own chin.

She couldn't fathom what Beichuan Si had done to her to make the Lady Bai Mian, a person in such a high position, turn out like this.

This time Beichuan Si didn't pay attention to Gangye Yoshiko's musings, he looked at Shirasaki Chiyoda behind the glass and asked word by word:

"Shirasaki, you've probably heard the name Ruyue Nao, haven't you?"
