740: Chapter 736: Guidance from the Deities (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

Jounouchi Hiromi, naturally, brought Minami to meet the Matchmaking God.

If anyone could make Minami believe, could make her understand that she and Inomata Naoki truly had a connection, it would only be this deity in charge of marital connections.

Even though the Matchmaking God resided at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters, for Jounouchi Hiromi at present, whether to force her way in, reveal her identity to enter, or use other means to sneak in undetected, it wasn’t difficult at all.

However, Jounouchi Hiromi did not force her way in; she simply notified Yamada Nobuyosuke upfront and then took Minami with her to visit.

Faced with Jounouchi Hiromi’s approach, Yamada Nobuyosuke naturally couldn’t obstruct her.

After consulting Chen Yu and receiving his approval, he allowed Jounouchi Hiromi and Minami to enter together.

Whether in life or death, this was Minami’s first time entering a police station, especially one like the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, which is the headquarters for all of Tokyo’s police, making her feel extremely curious about everything here.

Regarding the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters located outside the Sakuradamon, all Minami knew was that it was the headquarters for all police officers in Tokyo and that many officers worked there.

As for what specific departments there were, what the police did every day, and how their work was conducted, Minami was utterly clueless, with her only understanding coming from movies and TV shows.

Therefore, in Minami’s imagination, this should be a very solemn and intense place, with everyone being all business, no-nonsense, either solving cases or interrogating suspects.

However, when she and Jounouchi Hiromi arrived at the reception room where the Matchmaking God and the Inari God were, seeing them sitting at the dining table, enjoying a meal meticulously prepared by the chef, accompanied by several fully armed police officers standing guard, her worldview collapsed.

In the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters, at the heart of such a serious institution of power, with fully armed police officers nearby, yet before her were two deities treating it like a dining hall.

This absurd contrast made Minami at a loss for words.

But Jounouchi Hiromi was not surprised by this.

With her rising powers and a mindset that evolved along with them, she had gradually understood that the thoughts of deities and mortals were different, that the more powerful the deity, the less they needed to concern themselves with mortal thoughts.

And Inari God Miketsu no Kami, undoubtedly, is among all the deities in all Japan, the one most entitled to disregard mortals.

Even if it was just the Matchmaking God, as a bona fide deity, though not very powerful, they still had enough confidence to ignore these mortal opinions; after all, mortals are not qualified to offend a true deity.

After a simple greeting, Jounouchi Hiromi pulled Minami along to sit down in front of the two deities.

“Miss Giant Dragon, would you like to try this cake?

It’s really delicious!” The Matchmaking God offered cheerfully to Jounouchi Hiromi, promoting the dessert they were enjoying, clearly very satisfied with the chef’s culinary skills.

Jounouchi Hiromi glanced at the colorful cake in front of the Matchmaking God, looking somewhat like a Rubik’s cube, and nodded with slight interest.

“Miss Jounouchi, what brings you here today?

Surely you haven’t come just to share Xiao Yuan’s cake?” Miketsu no Kami looked at Jounouchi Hiromi and took the initiative to ask the reason for her visit.

Although Jounouchi Hiromi was still merely a mortal, she and Chen Yu had already earned enough respect from the deities—such treatment was not something ordinary people could obtain.

Indeed, even Yamada Nobuyosuke and the Section Chief from the anti-counterfeiting division or other high-ranking officials from the Metropolitan Police Department, upon visiting, basically had no right to even sit down in front of the two deities.

For Jounouchi Hiromi to receive such respect from both was almost an impossible occurrence.

However, Jounouchi Hiromi’s visit was clearly not about seeking presence in front of the deities, so she skipped the pleasantries and directly posed the question Minami wanted to know to the Matchmaking God.

“Her and that man’s fate?

Wasn’t this matter already settled?” The Matchmaking God cut a piece of cake and put it into his mouth while glancing at Minami: “The Red String of Fate between her and that man still exists, and even shows signs of deepening.

If things continue this way, breaking the taboo will not be far off.”

Minami had not believed, and had doubted the existence of any bond between herself and Inomata Naoki, but now that the Matchmaking God had spoken, she finally understood that some things do not cease to exist simply because they haven’t happened.

Yet she still harbored doubts and uncertainties, and asked the Matchmaking God: “But Inomata-kun already has a girlfriend.

Is there really still a bond between him and me?”

“You’re already dead, and yet you still have a bond with him; all the more so since he just found a girlfriend.” The Matchmaking God replied nonchalantly and then, as if suddenly remembering something, added, “By the way, that man and his current girlfriend also have a Red String of Fate.

Matters of marital fate are not one-to-one; often, one person will have bonds with several others at the same time.

However, the outcome depends on how destiny unfolds.

It’s not always the case that those with a bond will end up together.”

“Bonded yet unable to be together?” This statement made Minami feel extremely surprised, and she looked at the Matchmaking God with an astonished expression.

Seeing Minami’s surprise, the Matchmaking God felt she was quite strange but still replied, “What’s so surprising about that?

Don’t you humans have a saying, ‘fated to meet but not fated to be together’?

Not all lovers are destined to become life partners.

After a Red String of Fate is tied, if the relationship is not carefully nurtured, it can just as easily be severed.” frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

The Matchmaking God’s answer seemed to shock Minami.

Could it be that even love that was meant to be might not necessarily lead to a good outcome?

Seeing Minami’s reaction, Miketsu no Kami suddenly spoke, “The so-called fate only proves that you have the opportunity to meet, know, and love each other.

It doesn’t mean you can actually come together.

To truly come together and turn fate into marital bonds requires effort from both of you.

If neither of you wishes to start this bond, then even an already tied Red String of Fate can come undone.

However, the Red String of Fate between you and him has not dissipated; it’s actually growing stronger.

This means that one of you must already have feelings, wanting to be with the other.”

The Inari God’s words caused an even greater shock to Minami.

Inomata Naoki now had a girlfriend, and given their affectionate behavior, it was obviously not him who wished to be with her.

So, was it her who longed to be with him?

This answer left Minami too stunned to speak.
