I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo

Saitama Prefecture,

There is no bald devil here, but an ordinary inland county in the island country.

It borders Chiba Prefecture to the east, Nagano Prefecture to the west, Tokyo to the south, Ibaraki Prefecture and Tochigi Prefecture to the north. Historically, it was called Musashi Province together with most of Tokyo, and it is one of the important transportation centers in the eastern part of the island country. one.

Asaka City, wildfire stopped at the top of the park.

A few days ago:

"Fang Zhi, come up quickly——"

The young man on the top of the mountain waved, letting the panting junior high school student wipe his sweat.

"Zhixiong, aren't you tired?"

"Why are you tired! Look, you can see the 'Sacred Tree' from here."

The boy standing on the top of the mountain pointed into the distance: Saitama Prefecture is adjacent to Tokyo. When the weather is good, you can even see the 'sacred tree' on the distant horizon from the top of the mountain. Just like being in Tokyo and being able to see Mount Fuji.

"Although we in Saitama are called 'Little Edo,' Tokyo is the center of the extraordinary era."

The boy named ‘Zhixiong’ looked into the distance with a look of longing.

"That's the only place we should go!"

"Yes, yes,"

A junior high school student named ‘Fang Zhi’ came to the platform on the top of the mountain and reluctantly agreed.

They are just ordinary middle school students, how can they be qualified to enter the sacred tree area?

Well, it’s okay to have an opportunity to pay homage once a year.

but--

“It’s so magnificent~~”

Looking at the hazy giant trees on the distant horizon, no one can help but feel worshipful.

\u0026quot;It would be great if we could become transcendent,\u0026quot;

"Yes, when the time comes...?"

"Evil spirit!!"

Just when the two junior high school students were daydreaming about their future, an uninvited guest appeared.

"Damn, why are there evil spirits in the park?"

"There is the mausoleum of 'Matsuhira Nobutsuna' nearby, run!"

Facing the evil spirit that suddenly floated towards them, the two teenagers ran down the mountain in a hurry, shaking their fists to drive away the evil spirit as they ran.

When he was about to run out of the park, junior high school student Fang Zhi slipped. Zhixiong subconsciously reached out to grab him, but was brought down by the inertia. The two teenagers rolled down the steps, and finally fell to death. hurt.

————

"I'm sorry, Zhixiong."

In an apartment building, a junior high school student named ‘Fang Zhi’ covered his face with one hand and rubbed the photo frame on the table with his other hand.

The photo showed two primary school students holding each other's necks and making a scissor hand gesture with a smile.

That was a photo of him and Zhixiong.

The two families are neighbors and live in the same apartment building.

We have been in the same class since kindergarten and elementary school, and have also attended the same school since junior high school. They are truly good friends.

But just a few days ago, I encountered an evil spirit while climbing a mountain. I missed my footing and rolled down the steps.

When he came to his senses, Zhixiong was already lying in a pool of blood!

"It's all my fault."

Junior high school student Fang Zhi stood up, walked out of his room, and came to the living room with an annoyed look on his face.

"mom,"

?

Hearing the voice of ‘Fang Zhi’,

The middle-aged woman who was eating in the living room shuddered.

"I want to go see Zhixiong and say sorry to him in person."

The middle-aged woman put down the clean dishes and chopsticks tremblingly, stood up, picked up a small box, wore black clothes, and opened the door to her home.

Seeing his mother's appearance, 'Fang Zhi' sighed and followed with a heavy heart.

Dong dong dong,

Zhixiong's house is next door.

There was a knock on the door, and the door opened, revealing a haggard face.

"Ah, Mrs. Sadoshima, and..."

"Please come in."

The haggard woman: Zhixiong’s mother was startled and stepped aside while suppressing her sadness.

"Are you here to visit Zhixiong?"

"This way please——"

Under the leadership of Zhixiong's mother, the two came to a room.

A young man was lying on the bed in the room, his head, face and hands exposed under the quilt, covered with bandages, motionless.

"Zhixiong!"

Seeing the tragic situation of his friend, 'Fang Zhi' could no longer suppress his sadness; he went up and knelt in front of the bed, tears falling continuously.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"If I hadn't held you back, you wouldn't be like this."

While the two middle-aged women wept silently, Zhixiong, who was wrapped in bandages on the bed, moved his eyelids.

The next second, he opened his eyes with difficulty and turned his head slightly.

".Fang Zhi?"

"Zhixiong, it's me!"

The junior high school students were so excited that they didn’t know what to do.

But the boy on the bed continued speaking in a weak voice.

"sorry,"

"I couldn't save you."

?

"Zhixiong, what are you talking about?"

Amidst the doubts of a junior high school student named ‘Fang Zhi’, a voice came from outside the door.

"What he means is that it was not him who died of an extraordinary disaster; it was you: Sadoshima Kaoji."

As the two middle-aged women stepped aside, a girl dressed as a junior high school student walked in, making 'Fang Zhi' stand up in confusion.

"Classmate, who are you——"

"Extraordinary Countermeasures Division,"

"Takami Higashi."

He took out a book of documents and interrupted 'Fang Zhi's' inquiry.

Immediately afterwards, the short-haired girl reached into her pocket and took out a side:

Mirror!

Obviously her pocket is only as big as a palm,

But the mirror in the girl's hand was as big as a person's head. It was a simple bronze mirror with patterns like pine and crane painted on the back.

"Look at what you see in the mirror, Sadoshima Kaoji."

? !

The junior high school student named ‘Fang Zhi’ subconsciously looked at the bronze mirror, which reflected a face with a broken forehead, half of the face covered with blood, and a twisted neck!

And this face is exactly——

“My face?”

Staring at the reflection in the mirror, the junior high school student was stunned at first, and then a chill spread from the top of his head.

Wildfire Stop Park, overlooking the sacred tree, evil spirits, falling down while running away.

Yes, yes!

Falling in a pool of blood, and myself!

The trembling junior high school student is not right. It should be said that the evil spirit named ‘Fang Zhi’ covered his forehead with both hands, and his face was distorted with a painful expression, as if there was a worm drilling around in his brain, and he was in agony.

“I”

‘Fang Zhi’ looked back at Zhixiong on the bed,

and then looked at his mother who didn’t dare to look him in the eye.

Finally reacted:

"I'm dead?"

"I'm dead, I'm dead ah ah ah ah~~~!"

The next second, knowing that he was dead, the evil spirit of 'Fang Zhi' opened his mouth in pain, blood began to flow from his forehead, and his neck twisted into a strange angle; his mouth was so wide that he could fit a fist, and the rationality in his eye sockets disappeared rapidly, turning into a white and black chaos.

"Die!!!!"

Not all spirits can maintain rationality,

No, it should be said that most spirits are incomplete, with only some unforgettable memories left;

The previous boy 'Fang Zhi' was repeating a regretful behavior.

That's right,

He has come here to see Zhixiong three times!

Every time he knelt in front of Zhixiong's bed to apologize, but he was at a loss for others.

Encountering such a weird situation, the two families had to call the police and ask the Extraordinary Countermeasures Department to handle it.

"Well, it's really turned into a demon."

Facing the situation in front of her, Dong Xiaomei, who put away the mirror, muttered to herself, and raised her hand to pat the shoulder of the junior high school student who was "turning into a demon".

"Calm down!"

"You don't want Zhixiong to see you like this, do you?"

? ? ?

Dong Xiaomei's voice was like a heavy hammer, hitting the spirit on the verge of collapse, and the existence named "Fang Zhi" gradually regained a trace of reason.

Zhixiong!

I am dead.

But only Zhixiong was worried

"Concentrate your mind, follow my guidance, and condense your spirit!"

In a daze, the voice that went straight into the spirit kept ringing; let the consciousness and instinct of the junior high school student "Fang Zhi" follow this voice step by step.

"My lord, my son."

"Mrs. Sadoshima, don't go over there!"

"That's not Fang Zhi anymore, please calm down--"

At the door of the room, the haggard mother of Zhixiong tightly held the woman in black clothes holding a small box.

No matter how the Supernatural Countermeasures Department "exorcises the spirits", as ordinary people, they can only wait for the result: the dead are dead, but the living have to live.

"Uh uh uh ah ah ah ah ~~~"

The "evil spirit" placed on the shoulder by Dong Xiaomei's palm is constantly twisting;

It expands like a ball for a while, and shrinks into a skeleton for a while, as if it is suffering from severe pain, but it seems to be:

Reshaping?

A few minutes later, the evil spirit no longer struggles and twists;

Instead, it gradually recovers to the appearance of the junior high school boy "Fang Zhi".

Only this time, there is no blood on the body, no twisted limbs, and except for some illusion, it looks almost the same as a normal person.

"Hu——"

Letting go of the palm, letting the spirit in front of her kneel on the ground, Dong Xiaomei let out a long breath.

"Is this considered a success?"

"I know I am not qualified, but I can save as many as I can."

As the girl from the "Supernatural Countermeasures Department" talked to herself, "Fang Zhi" who was kneeling on the ground raised his head.

"What am I doing?"

The lively eyes looked at his slightly illusory hands, then turned to look at Zhixiong on the bed, and then looked up to see the woman being held at the door.

"Mom?"

For a moment,

the two women who were pulling were stunned.

"My lord, this is--"

"I have stabilized his condition. If you want, you can let him possess you as a 'guardian spirit'."

Guardian spirit?

This term is also known to everyone in today's island country.

Many lucky or unfortunate ordinary people; because the spirits of their relatives, lovers, and friends after their death are attached to them, they have become extraordinary people such as 'psychics'.

But if there is a choice, most people would never want this power: because being able to become a guardian spirit almost means having an unforgettable bond with each other.

Well, licking dogs does not count.

"You mean, Fang Zhihe"

Sado Island looked at his 'son' with tears in his eyes,

"I'm sorry, Mom."

"Please forgive me for dying first."

What greeted him was the embarrassed scratching of the boy's head to apologize.

"No,"

"I won't blame you. How can I bear to blame you, my son! Wuwuwu~~~"

As the middle-aged woman cried and collapsed on the floor, a small but firm voice came from the bed.

"Let Fang Zhi"

"Possess me!"

Zhixiong, who was seriously injured on the bed, turned his head and looked at everyone, his tone firm.

"It was me who proposed to climb the mountain. It was me who failed to save Fang Zhi. I want to take Fang Zhi with me and spend the rest of my life together."

"What about you?"

Dong Xiaomei's eyes fell on the stabilized spirit 'Fang Zhi',

"Are you willing to be Zhixiong's guardian spirit?"

The power of the spirit comes from "emotion". Although it is a bit rude to say this, since the spirit of "Fang Zhi" only remembered Zhixiong before, it means that in his heart, Zhixiong is more important than anyone else.

If you want to choose a person to possess, Zhixiong is definitely the most suitable.

"I"

Turning his head to look at his friend on the bed, the spirit named "Fang Zhi" nodded heavily.

"I will!"

————

A few minutes later,

"Thank you, Inspector Dong Xiaomei, thank you so much."

Outside the apartment, a middle-aged man in a police uniform held the hands of a junior high school girl with both hands, shaking excitedly.

"Ahem, Chief."

The female police officer who couldn't bear to watch coughed next to him, which made the middle-aged chief of the police station come back to his senses.

"Ah, I'm too excited."

Letting go of the girl's hand, the middle-aged chief apologized on the spot.

Shaking hands is a courtesy, but holding on is workplace harassment!

"It's okay,"

"The spirit of the boy named 'Fang Zhi' has attached itself to the boy Zhixiong."

"Zhixiong's body is in the recovery period, pay attention to nutrition - it's best to apply for a 'supernatural subsidy' for them, and take care of their health first."

"Yes, thank you for your guidance!"

The local police chief nodded repeatedly, smiling.

How can you not be happy to find a 'psychic' for free in your own jurisdiction?

The current Dong Xiaomei is no longer the girl who was at the 'low end of the class' and could be bullied at any time; after explaining the aftermath to the local police station, she waved her hand, refused the chief's invitation to 'have a meal', and got on the black low-key car parked next to her alone.

"Go back to Tokyo."

"Yes,"

After the driver answered, the car started smoothly.

She is both the captain of the 'Guardian Team' of the Supernatural Countermeasures Department and a student of the Curse School.

Unknowingly, Dong Xiaomei has also become a 'big shot' that others look up to, with a special car and driver to pick her up.

"Hmph, a waste of spiritual power."

Sitting in the car without rearview mirrors, a figure floated out of Higashi Takami's body.

It was the guy who called himself 'Oda Nobuna' with a bad temper.

"It's not a waste, it's also a kind of training."

Higashi Takami seriously retorted:

"Sister Nobuna, stabilizing a spirit that is about to collapse can't exercise the control of 'yin attribute' better than making 'spiritual tools'?"

"Hehe, you're just soft-hearted."

To Nobuna, who went straight to the core, Higashi Takami asked back in confusion.

"Is it bad to be soft-hearted to ordinary people?"

Soft-hearted?

For people like Oda Nobuna, it's incredible.

In any case, she is a combination of countless people's cognition of 'Oda Nobunaga'.

Nobunaga was soft-hearted only once in his life: because he was too messy when he was a teenager, even his mother supported his younger brother's rebellion; after fighting within the same family, he spared his younger brother once for the sake of his mother's begging for mercy.

But unlike the loyal ‘Shibata Katsuie’, his younger brother Nobuyuki still had a rebellious heart, so Nobunaga pretended to be sick and lured him to the bedroom, and killed him on the spot!

From then on, Nobunaga and his mother were completely cut off.

The fact that Nobunaga would become the kind of person with a strange temper later on was also related to his mother's preference for his younger brother.

"It's up to you,"

Oda Nobuna skipped the topic.

"Don't be proud, it's just that I can stabilize the spirit body and make some simple 'spiritual tools'."

The mirror used to make 'Fangzhi' recognize the reality before was also the result of Tou Xiaomei's practice during this period; in theory, her progress was not bad, but with Oda Nobuna's bad character, she would definitely not say anything nice.

"I heard that there is a person named Takahashi Ai Ling on the battlefield in the southern sea."

"Her ability is also the nature change of Yin attribute spiritual power, which can create various "generals" out of thin air."

"Your level is nothing compared to her!"

"Enough, Nobuna."

Another figure emerged from Dong Xiaomei's body, it was Yi Yue who couldn't stand it anymore.

"Xiaomei has tried very hard, you..."

"Okay, okay,"

Dong Xiaomei began to persuade the two people who were tit-for-tat in her body.

"Don't quarrel for me~~"
