I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

On the outskirts of Taito District shrouded in black mist, the fluorescent sticks flickering in the streets and alleys became the only light source that symbolized hope.

Thanks to the clues discovered in Lesson 9, the evacuation work carried out in advance, and the baptism of various natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons, nuclear radiation, and volcanic eruptions over the years, as well as a lot of disaster prevention education that has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people on weekdays, at this moment Faced with this weird "cult terrorist attack", most people in Taito District have evacuated to a relatively safe area in an orderly manner under the organization of official organizations.

However, there are still many people who have not had time to leave. Due to the loss of energy and mental disorders caused by the black gas, they are trapped in places like elevators or completely lost their way in the dark.

And these flickering light sticks are like sparks that start a prairie fire and the North Star in the night sky, guiding the lost people in the right direction.

"Remember, strictly keep two or more people together. If you experience dizziness, blurred vision, hear strange whispers, or see weird things, immediately evacuate to a safe area for rotation..."

While guiding the people to evacuate, the men kept reminding each other in low voices.

"...All actions are based on the judgment of the agents of Section Nine. When necessary, emergency measures can be taken to subdue the out-of-control companions."

As the black mist-like resentment grew stronger, even with the help of light sticks, the effective viewing distance was only less than five meters.

At the same time, due to the disturbance of the electromagnetic field, all electronic equipment, compass, etc. cannot be used, so it is very easy to get lost.

Even adult males with strong mentality, if they stay in this strong resentment visible to the naked eye for too long, they will experience hallucinations, fainting or even madness caused by mental instability, so they must evacuate in time when the signs appear.

Running in this dark mist that returns everything to death and silence, while saving others, they are also taking great risks themselves.

At the crossroads, a figure was walking along the black and white streets in a daze.

"Sir, please follow us to take refuge immediately..."

When the distance got closer, the rescue team saw clearly that in front of him was a man with rolling eyes, blood all over his body, and wearing a shabby kimono that didn't look like this era.

On his neck, there is still a huge slash like a knife.

"Who are you……"

Before he could turn on the brake, the head of the man in front of him split open suddenly, and instantly blossomed into a huge mouth with four petals and fine teeth, biting towards his lower body.

"boom."

With the sound of gunfire, the head protruding in mid-air exploded and dissipated into black smoke.

"Ka... Kato-san..."

The man who was almost buried in a bloody mouth was so frightened that he rolled over with his car on the ground.

"This... what is this..."

Turning his head, he tremblingly asked his companion who shot back.

He didn't question the other party's "non-martial arts" behavior of shooting at unarmed people without warning, he just wanted to know what happened.

In this black mist, all actions must be based on the judgment of Section 9 agents.

"So, with this level of resentment, can you see the resentment with just the naked eye..."

The one who fired from the rear was none other than the agent from Section 9 who was on his team and wearing the spy glasses.

He didn't answer his companion's question, but his calf trembled and he stared into the distance in a daze.

"If it is true according to what that guy said, the dead will return to the world..."

In the field of vision of his spirit detection glasses, more and more dense "human figures" gradually began to appear on the street ten meters away.

"...Staying in such a strong resentment, wouldn't all spirit bodies have to turn into resentful spirits?"

At the same time, after most of the people evacuated, various parts of Taito District, which had been transformed into a dead city, gradually began to become "lively" again.

"Let's retreat, the grievances and spirits of this scale no longer have the conditions to continue the search and rescue..."

Without hesitation, the detective named Kato turned the front of the car in the direction of the nearest "array wall" and called his companions to leave.

I have promised Section Chief Mochizuki, and I will try my best to survive...

Only by surviving can we be qualified to save more people.

"Hey, but those people..."

The man dressed as a firefighter stood up dumbfoundedly and looked at the "crowd" approaching him.

As if sensing the presence of the two, several figures in front of the "crowd" suddenly accelerated.

"Look carefully, those are probably the 'people' hundreds of years ago."

Only then did the man see clearly that the figures in the front were as gray and shabby as the man who attacked him before, covered in blood, and their clothes were also in the Edo period or even older styles.

Before he could finish speaking, several figures in front had already rushed forward, rushing towards the two of them with a bloodthirsty expression.

"Don't hesitate, hurry up, there will be professionals here to deal with it."

Kato fired several shots without hesitation, defeating the frontmost wraiths.

"Professionals? Aren't we just..."

When the two drove away, several arms stretched out from the ground, grabbed their ankles firmly, and then entwined along their bodies.

"This is troublesome..."

Kato emptied the bullets in his magazine with a wry smile, but those arms were inexhaustible like weeds.

Feeling the strength in his whole body being pulled away along his legs, he had already prepared for the worst.

"Zheng."

With the sound of the weapon being unsheathed, a blade pierced the darkness.

Where the knife light passed, the air was ignited with raging flames, and the surrounding resentment sizzled as if being burned by flames.

The arms that were originally entangled and ravaged the bodies of the two were instantly reduced to ashes in the flames.

"this……"

When he came back to his senses, a long knife with a scorching breath was quietly inserted into the ground beside the two of them.

Long knife [sun wheel].

"Hoo...hoo..."

Looking at this weird long knife, Kato, who was almost suffocated by the fear of death, breathed frantically, but his heart was extremely stable.

"...Professionals, here we come."

A tall and straight figure with double sheaths on his waist slowly emerged from the dark resentment.

This is a very handsome young man in a black kimono.

"Master Tachibana Piaoxue!"

"I have already cleared the way when I came here, you guys retreat quickly..."

The young man slowly pulled out the long knife on the ground, and looked at the increasingly dense figures on the surrounding streets with a cold expression.

It was from the nearby direction of Chiyoda that he rushed here immediately. Exorcism Exemption Level [2] Exorcist, "Tachibana Piaoxue", Abeji Temple.

"Sorry, I have been disturbing the tranquility for many years. In fact, you are also victims..."

After the two left, Abeji bowed respectfully to the "crowd" in front of him, and then pulled out Wakizashi [Yueyao] on the other side.

Inspiration told him that in the black mist of resentment, there were at least a hundred resentful spirits surrounding him, surrounding him.

"There's no time, I'll save everyone one by one safely."

The two knives in his hands screamed slightly as if responding to his words.

"...Congratulations, the Obon Festival is safe and healthy."

On the dark street, snowflakes began to fall.

Second-class first-class snow.
