Chapter 75 - Uncovering the Secret Society's Lair

The miko's child runs up to her mother and shakes her, trying to wake her up. The child is crying and calls out to Shizuru, "Mama! Mama! Wake up! What did you do?"

The child is in a state of sadness, knowing that he now might lose his mother and is also concerned about what he will have to do without her. He is also confused as to how his mother became unconscious suddenly.

The tragic event impacts the child and the whole village, as the miko was well-loved among the people.

The miko's child looks at Shizuru and accusingly says, "You killed mama! Why...."

The child is pointing fingers at Shizuru, as if holding her responsible for his mother's tragic passing. The child is heartbroken and also scared, as if trying to blame Shizuru for the outcome. Despite Shizuru's best efforts to save the miko, the child is still in shock and doesn't fully understand the situation at hand.

Shizuru feels saddened by the child's accusation, as she herself tried her best to rescue the miko. She also knows that her involvement in the situation makes the child suspicious of her.

The child also has lost his mother, and he is still too young to fully comprehend the situation.Shizuru tries to comfort the child, telling him that he does not need to hold her responsible for this outcome.

She tells him that she did her best to try to save his mother, but that sometimes, things don't go the way we expected. She reassures him that she did not have any bad intentions.

Shizuru approaches the child and tells him, "Hey there, I'm sorry for your loss..."The child looks up at her, still upset with her.

Shizuru continues, "I know you're upset, and you have the right to be. But don't blame me for what happened..."

The child looks down in anger, but Shizuru continues, "I understand your anger and sadness, but it wasn't my fault. I did the best I could to try to save your mother, but sometimes, things just don't go the way we want."

The child seems to listen, but he doesn't accept Shizuru's explanation and his anger only seems to grow. He starts to lash out and shouts, "But because of you, my mama is dead now..."

Shizuru feels hurt by the child's words and she tries to remain calm and reason with him. She continues trying to comfort the child, as she knows he just lost his mother and needs a shoulder to lean on.

Shizuru keeps her patience and doesn't lash out at the child. She tries to think a way to comfort him, as losing a mother is one of the most tragic experiences for anyone, especially a child.

She tries to remind herself that he is just a child grieving for his mother and that he needs love and support. She continues to try and calm the child down, trying to reason with him.

The child seems to be listening, however, he continues to harbor anger towards Shizuru, blaming her for the outcome.

Shizuru continues comforting the child, trying to reason with him. She tells him that despite everything that happened, she still cares for him and will be there for him.

The child starts to understand that Shizuru is not responsible for the tragedy that happened and realizes that he cannot blame her for everything.

The child is still upset, but his anger begins to lessen, and he looks up at Shizuru with a sad but relieved face.

Shizuru is happy that the child is beginning to understand her intentions and that he realizes that she will continue to support him.

Shizuru continues comforting the child, who is still upset and crying, but he seems to be listening to Shizuru's words.

She reassures him that she will be there for him, and that she cares for him.

As the child begins to understand Shizuru's intentions, his anger starts to lessen and he looks up at her with a sad but relieved face. Shizuru is happy that the child is starting to understand her intentions and that he realizes that she will continue to support him and stand by his side.

As the child remembers that the Miko reached out to save Hino, he starts to realize that his mother died while trying to save someone. While the child is still sad, he understands and appreciates that his mother sacrificed her life for another, which is a selfless and loving act.

The child remembers the time when the Miko performed a healing ceremony to save someone, and he starts to understand the meaning of sacrifice. Even though the child is still sad about his mother's demise, he knows that his mother died while trying to save someone else, which is a noble act and shows that she was a loving person.

The child is still grieving the loss of the Miko, but he is comforted by the fact that the Miko died while she was saving someone else.

The child now understands his mother's sacrifice and how much she cared about others. Despite the sadness, there is also some beauty in the Miko's legacy and the child is comforted by that.

As the child comes to terms with his mother's passing, he tells Shizuru "My mom had already done what she wanted, to save someone in a spiritual world... and i knew this is what she wanted"

Shizuru is moved by the child's words and can sympathize with his feelings. The child, despite losing his mother at such a young age, is at peace with her passing, knowing that she did what she wanted in life.

The love and support the Miko showed to others, has now been passed on to the child, who is reminded of her selfless and kind nature.

Hino suddenly wakes up and he gasps for air. Shizuru is alarmed by Hino and continues to shake him. Hino seems to be in a state of confusion and Shizuru is trying to help him.

As Shizuru continues to try and help Hino, he looks at her and says,

"I knew where the secret society's headquarters are now."

Shizuru is confused and asks Hino, "Where are they?"

Hino looks at Shizuru, but he is still hazy and confused. He tries to explain where the headquarters are, but he is still recovering from whatever caused him to go unresponsive.

Hino says to Shizuru, "I knew where it was... but we have to find evidence... first to know where the location exactly is."

Hino seems to be feeling more alert and says to Shizuru, "We need to find where it is located, or find the location to get in there."

  Shizuru is relieved to hear Hino speaking with more clarity and tries to clarify what he means by "where the heck we can get in there."

She asks him, "Do you mean the secret society's headquarters?"

Hino seems to be thinking, as if trying to recollect his thoughts. He nods in response to Shizuru's question, as if to say, "Yes, that's what I mean."
