Anime Crossover: Am I the only one who can see ghosts?

"I'm from the mainland, and I learned some face reading techniques from a young age. Your face has a very dark aura!" Fang Yan said after a moment's thought.

Chapter 14

The dark aura on his face? From the mainland? Fang Yan's words instantly left Inui Hinako and Shinomiya Kojiro feeling both confused and impressed.

Although Sakura Province is also part of China, it can't withstand the domineering attitude of the mainland in the past! Even now, Sakura Province still has a sense of admiration for the mainland.

Hinako Inui and Kojiro Shinomiya also knew that in terms of metaphysics, it seemed that the mainland was the real professional!

Thinking of this, Shinomiya Kojiro's previously stagnant heart became excited, and he hurriedly asked Fang Yan, "Is there any way to save us?"

Even Inui Hinako looked at Fang Yan nervously. The mainland! They've even learned these things. Sure enough, the legends of the past were true; everyone on the mainland knows martial arts! And it seems quite a few people are cultivating immortality now!

"Could you loosen your grip first?" Fang Yan asked, glancing at the hand that was tightly gripping his arm.

If necessary, Fang Yan could easily break free, but with so many people around, not just Shinomiya Kojiro and Inui Hinako, but also quite a few pedestrians, Fang Yan didn't want to expose himself in front of too many people.

As for Shinomiya Kojiro and Inui Hinako, Fang Yan also had his own solution: simply silence them. No way! The Yin-Yang School has countless methods; how could they be without even this one?

"Ah, okay!" Upon hearing this, Shinomiya Kojiro immediately released Fang Yan and nodded apologetically. Fang Yan waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing to worry about.

"Let's find a place to sit down first!" At this moment, Hinako Inui also spoke up.

As a woman, Inui Hinako saw quite a lot. Since she needed to ask for help, she couldn't possibly let Fang Yan talk things out on the street, could she?

"Ah? Okay! Then let's go to my shop!" Shinomiya Kojiro hurriedly rummaged through his pockets, trying to find his keys, but he quickly realized, "No, let's go to the coffee shop next door?"

None of the chefs in their own restaurants have had a good ending. Not only are they ruined, but the kitchen helpers are also ruined. In fact, it's not just the kitchen helpers, but even the waiters can't cook home-style dishes anymore.

It can be said that this incident has had a tremendous impact on Shinomiya Kojiro. With Inui Hinako by his side, Shinomiya Kojiro also doesn't want to implicate Inui Hinako.

Even though Fang Yan seemed to be good at metaphysics, Shinomiya Kojiro said he still had to be a little wary.

Fang Yan did not refuse, and the three of them went to a coffee shop not far from Shinomiya Kojiro Restaurant. After each ordering a drink, Fang Yan asked, "Mr. Shinomiya, have you offended anyone recently?"

"Just call me Kojiro!" Shinomiya Kojiro quickly replied, "If we're talking about offending people, I actually have offended quite a few lately!"

Actually, on the way, Kojiro Shinomiya thought about many things.

"Oh?" Fang Yan raised an eyebrow, waiting for Shinomiya Kojiro to continue.

Kojiro Shinomiya gave a wry smile and said, "This must be related to the Shinomiya Foundation!"

"Isn't senior also a member of the Shinomiya Group?" Hyugako Inui asked, frowning slightly.

Even though Kojiro Shinomiya didn't deliberately flaunt his identity, his friend Hinako Inui knew more or less about his background.

“Even within wealthy families, there is competition!” Fang Yan said calmly.

In fact, Fang Yan himself is quite lucky. After all, he is an only child, and he doesn't have any business in Sakura Province, so he doesn't have to go through all that deceit and treachery.

Moreover, now that I've unlocked a cheat code, it seems I don't need to worry about anyone playing dirty tricks on me.

"Yes, there is intense competition within the Shinomiya Group. You can't completely trust your parents or siblings. In fact, siblings are in competition with each other from a young age. Family ties are extremely harsh for the Shinomiya family!"

"My mother is the biological younger sister of Shinomiya Kan'an, the current president of the Shinomiya Group!" Shinomiya Kojiro said with a wry smile.

His words shocked not only Fang Yan but also Inui Hinako. They had previously thought that even though Shinomiya Kojiro was a member of the Shinomiya Group, he wouldn't be a core figure, at most just a distant relative.

Unexpectedly, Kojiro Shinomiya's status was higher than he had imagined.

As for why Kojiro Shinomiya has the surname Shinomiya, well, as the sister of the president of the Shinomiya Group, is it normal for her child to have the surname Shinomiya?

“My mother owns a portion of the Shinomiya Group’s shares. She controls the group’s catering division. My father, on the other hand, married into the Shinomiya family and was always looked down upon by the rest of the family. Unable to bear it any longer, he left when I was eight years old!” Shinomiya Kojiro said with a bitter smile.

"Is that so?" Hinako Inui sighed silently. Sure enough, every family has its own troubles.

"Because my mother was in charge of the catering industry, I was exposed to all kinds of restaurants from a young age, which sparked my great interest in cooking. However, I didn't want to have too much contact with that treacherous family, so I grew up in the kitchen! And my mother supported what I did!"

Chapter 15

"For you, being able to keep those businesses is already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune!" Fang Yan nodded slightly upon hearing Shinomiya Kojiro's words: "After all, your cousins ​​won't be polite to you!"

“Yes!” Shinomiya Kojiro gave a bitter smile: “My mother must have thought the same way back then, and now I understand her intentions.”

I had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of the Shinomiya Group, but since my mother's passing a year ago, several people have come to me!

"Want to get your shares? Or something else?" Fang Yan raised an eyebrow and continued to ask.

Kojiro Shinomiya nodded with a wry smile: "If it weren't for the fact that this was given to me by my mother, to be honest, I would be happy to sell this property. However, my mother told me that even if it were a last resort, I should not sell these stocks!"

"Why?" Hinako Inui asked curiously at this moment.

"Because these are Kojiro Shinomiya's protective charms. Once he loses those shares, do you think he can keep the money he got from selling the stocks? At that point, he won't be considered a member of the Shinomiya family anymore!" Fang Yan said pointedly.

"Is that so?" Hinako Inui was a little confused. Her background wasn't bad, but she couldn't quite understand these twists and turns.

Kojiro Shinomiya nodded with a wry smile, acknowledging Fang Yan's words: "The Shinomiya family is ruthless to their own people, and even more ruthless to outsiders. No one can escape unscathed from the Shinomiya family!"

"So they did this to force you to sell your shares? Or to get you to support them?" Fang Yan then asked.

"They want me to support them!" Shinomiya Kojiro said with a wry smile. "After all, they want to buy my shares, but they can't come up with that much cash all at once."

"Looks like they're the younger generation, your cousins?" Fang Yan nodded slightly. He knew a little about Kaguya Shinomiya's brothers. Although the anime seemed like a silly, romantic comedy, the later plot, at least in the manga, was somewhat realistic.

Kaguya Shinomiya's brothers were so cunning that they even schemed against their own sister, let alone someone as wild as Kojiro Shinomiya.

"Hmm!" Shinomiya Kojiro scratched his still-messy hair and said, "Now you're saying I'm cursed, but I don't know who did it!"

Fang Yan pursed his lips. It seemed that more than one person had sought out Shinomiya Kojiro. Sigh, living in a family like that must be quite miserable!

However, they also possess power that is unimaginable to ordinary people, and it is believed that few people can refuse these things.

"Fang Yan, do you have a way to solve the problem your senior is having?" At this moment, Inui Hinako also asked.

Meanwhile, Shinomiya Kojiro was also looking at Fang Yan expectantly. He hadn't said all that just to complain to someone; he wanted to truly solve the problem.

Otherwise, he really needs to consider other options.

In fact, it's not impossible to find a solution through the Shinomiya Foundation. However, that solution might very well require the person who cursed him to break the curse, which would mean losing a lot of things. Shinomiya Kojiro doesn't want to compromise for the time being.

Even though he now seems to have lost the most important thing.

However, Kojiro Shinomiya also cared deeply about the things his mother left behind. And if he could threaten her once, it was hard to guarantee he wouldn't do it again.

"Hmm!" Fang Yan rubbed his chin and said, "If you can find the person who is cursed, I can help you deal with them. But finding them won't be easy."

However, if you're willing to cooperate, I think it's worth a try.

"What kind of cooperation? What are you trying to do?" Shinomiya Kojiro was somewhat disappointed when he heard the previous words, but then he became excited. It's better to have hope than no hope at all.

“We’ll devise a plan to lure out the person who’s been cursing you!” A playful smile appeared on Fang Yan’s face.

Fang Yan didn't have a good impression of the Shinomiya Group. He'd be happy to do something within their family if he could.

Others may fear the Shigong Group, but Fang Yan is not. Back then, when the Shigong Group wanted to target his father, didn't they eventually back down?

"What should I do?" Shinomiya Kojiro asked hurriedly.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be too difficult. You just need to cook!" Fang Yan said with a playful look on his face.

"That's so simple?" Shinomiya Kojiro asked, somewhat dumbfounded.

"Hmm!" Fang Yan nodded slightly: "Such a curse cannot be without a source. When the curse takes effect, it can be seen a little more clearly!"

After thinking for a moment, Fang Yan continued, "Of course, it would be even better if someone were to be infected by you!"

Actually, if it weren't for the fact that his expertise was unrelated to the curse, Fang Yan could have directly lifted it. Fang Yan could tell that the person who cast the curse wasn't very strong, but alas, he wasn't a professional Taoist priest!

"This?" Shinomiya Kojiro hesitated slightly. Infect others?

This seems rather sinister!

Chapter 16

"We'll see about that later! Let's go to your restaurant now!" After thinking for a moment, Fang Yan continued, "I didn't have a very clear view of what was going on inside from the outside, so this is a good opportunity to investigate!"

He still decided to help Shinomiya Kojiro, even if it meant he hadn't seen it. Solving this would help recharge the system and allow him to learn something through the Shinomiya Foundation.

The man in front of me, Kojiro Shinomiya, holds considerable weight within the Shinomiya Group.

"Okay!" Shinomiya Kojiro agreed without hesitation, then looked at Inui Hinako beside him and said, "You shouldn't come along. It would be bad if you caught it. I suspect there's something wrong with the stoves over there!"

Upon hearing this, Hinako Inui puffed out her cheeks and said with obvious displeasure, "How can this be? This is the first time I've ever seen something like this!"

"But if you get infected, your culinary career will be over!" Kojiro Shinomiya warned, frowning.

"Isn't Fang Yan here?" Inui Hinako looked at Fang Yan, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"There's nothing wrong with following along, and it might even help me verify some things!" Fang Yan said after a moment's thought.

Since Hinako Inui wants to be a guinea pig, why should I refuse? And what should I do if I can't solve this problem?

Did he say he was certain he could solve this problem? Didn't you see that Fang Yan didn't even mention compensation?

"This?" Shinomiya Kojiro opened his mouth, but finally agreed.

..................................................................................................................

"Click!" As Shinomiya Kojiro turned on the restaurant lights, Fang Yan and Inui Hinako also entered the restaurant. This was a high-end French restaurant. Fang Yan and Nakiri Erina had been here a few times. The prices here were not low at all.

However, as soon as he entered the restaurant, Fang Yan frowned and looked at the Ebisu statue at the cashier with a serious expression.

"What's wrong?" Shinomiya Kojiro asked quickly.

"Where did you come from, this Ebisu statue?" Fang Yan asked, picking up the Ebisu statue.

"This was a gift from someone when the store opened, but I can't quite remember who it was!" Shinomiya Kojiro frowned, thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Ebisu is the god of wealth in Sakura Prefecture, and this Ebisu statue is made of high-grade jade, so I kept it. Is there something wrong with the Ebisu statue?"

His expression also turned ugly. If there was something wrong with the Ebisu statue, then wouldn't the other party have been plotting against him for a long time?

This infuriated Kojiro Shinomiya. As a key figure in the Shinomiya Group, how could he possibly be an easy person to talk to?

"Hmm!" Fang Yan nodded slightly: "Don't you all think that the smile on this Ebisu statue is quite strange?"
