The field increases by 1 ghost per second. I am the ghost king in Tokyo.

Ermuyou felt very depressed.

She took a deep breath:

"So you want me to give up Chengjun? Chengjun's parents worked hard for the bureau, and now they are dead, but they can't even guarantee the safety of their son. When did the Sixth Bureau become so inhumane?"

Pa--!"

Akabane Shuichi's face was full of anger, and he slammed the document in his hand on the table.

"Shut up, what's your attitude? As a subordinate, you dare to talk back to me?"

"I dare not."

Ermu Yu bowed and apologized, her eyes still stubborn.

Akabane Hideichi stood up and said with his back to her:

"The shadow demon is good at hiding. If it doesn't show up, even a good investigator like Uehara will find it difficult to catch it in a short time. Our Sixth Bureau has to deal with the strange events in the entire central area. We are short of manpower and can't let you stay with the child all the time. I have added your name to the team list. Thank you for your help!"

Ermu Yu lowered his head and pursed his lips. He clenched his hands, and his ten fingernails almost embedded in the tender flesh of his palms.

This is a move first and then report! He didn't give her a chance to refute or refuse.

Seeing that Ermu Yu didn't answer, Akabane Hideichi turned around and handed over the documents on the table:

"Of course, I am not an unreasonable person. For this mission, you only need to help during the day, and you can leave at night. I can assure you of this."

"Thank you, Director Akabane."

After hearing this, Ermu You felt a little relieved and took the document.

Akabane Shuichi waved his hand:

"What are you thanking me for? I was forced by my superiors to do this. As for Ito's safety, I will tell the patrol officers to keep an eye on him."

""I'm sorry for your trouble."

Ermu Yu bowed again to express her gratitude.

After leaving the director's office, she opened the cover of the document in her hand.

On the next page, several lines of large characters immediately caught her eye.

【A new type of bizarre serial murder case】

【Weird type: Curse trigger】

【Level rating: Level 4】

【Current number of victims: 13】

……

"Is this Sister You?"Ito Makoto answered the phone

"Yes, it’s me. Are you still in school?"

"Well, I plan to wait until Yuko finishes her training and then go back together."

"That's good. I'm very sorry, Makoto. The bureau has a temporary task arrangement, and I may not be able to pick you up this afternoon."

On the other end of the phone, Futaki Yu's voice was full of self-blame.

After receiving the task file, she immediately met with the members of the task force.

After understanding the situation, the situation developed worse than she expected.

One of the victims on the list was a relative of an official.

There was pressure from above.

The Special Affairs Bureau was required to find and eliminate the weird as soon as possible.

Just now, a new victim appeared.

All members of the task force must rush to the scene to investigate immediately.

Ito Makoto was a little surprised to hear the news, and then took the initiative to explain:

"It's okay, Sister You, just do your thing."

"But the Shadow Demon……"

"There is no need to worry too much. It was just driven away by you yesterday, Sister You, so it will not dare to come again in the short term."

Ito Makoto gave her a reason to put her mind at ease.

It would be best if the Shadow Demon came.

He was afraid that the other party would not come!

"That being said, it's better to be safe than sorry!"Ermu Yu was still a little worried.

"Oh, by the way, Sister You, I have good news for you. Ito Makoto tried to change the subject.

"What is the Good News?"

"I have been promoted to the first level of ghost master."

Ito Makoto did not hide it and told her this with a smile.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and then a surprised cry came out.

"Really? Congratulations, Chengjun! You must celebrate when you come back tonight."

"Thank you."

Ito Makoto smiled.

Then a charming mature lady's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yu-chan, who are you talking to on the phone? Your boyfriend?"

"momo (pronounced as peach in Japanese), don't talk nonsense, he is my younger brother."Ermu Yu took the phone away and said with some anger. Ito Makoto raised his eyebrows. Is he still just a younger brother now?

It doesn't matter, he will continue to work hard

"Sister You, you go ahead and do your work. I'm hanging up now."

"Wait a minute, Chengjun, you... must be careful!"

"Well, I'll remember it."

Ito Makoto felt warm in his heart, and then he hung up the phone.

The boy looked up at the gradually darkening sky.

The Special Affairs Bureau actually transferred Sister You away. It seemed that something big had happened. Things have been really turbulent recently!

But this gave him a chance.

From the perspective of the Shadow Demon, he was a prey with no power to resist.

Once he was left alone, it would be unable to hold back and take the initiative to attack in the dark!

Ito Makoto looked at the time. There were still two hours before Yuko's training ended.

He put away his phone, did not wait at school, and walked out of the school gate alone.

"A good hunter often appears as prey"

……

To go home from school, you need to take a tram.

Ito Makoto took the tram for half an hour and got off at Shika-komachi.

There were not many people outside the station.

Most of the people coming and going were students like him, or hard-working office workers.

Ito Makoto looked around and walked towards the villa area.

It takes about twenty minutes to walk from here to the Ermu residence.

Leaving the main road, there are fewer and fewer pedestrians.

This area has been out of the protection range of the barrier and may be attacked by strange monsters at any time.

For safety, most people will move into the city to live.

They would rather rent a house than stay in remote areas.

Although the strength of the city's barrier is average, any monster with a little strength can break in, but it is better than nothing.

As dusk approached, the sky became darker.

Large patches of heavy clouds like lead blocks spread overhead, and there was a faint dampness in the air.

It seemed that it would start to rain soon.

Ito Makoto walked alone on the winding mountain road that looked like the body of a giant python.

There were large tracts of dense forests gathered on the side of the road.

Those tall and thin solar firs stood silently by the road, their bark dark and rough, and their outstretched branches looked like dry claws, fluttering in the wind.

Whoosh - the wind began to grow stronger.

The hem of Ito Makoto's open school uniform was blown up.

A few cold drops fell and touched his facial skin.

The boy touched his cheek, but it was raining.

The fine needle-like raindrops fell obliquely, but could not infect the dark shadow that suddenly appeared at the end of the road in the distance!

The dark shadow was several meters high, as slender as a roadside fir, standing tall in the wind and rain.

On the face that looked like a head at the top, a pair of bright red eyes stared straight at Ito Makoto! There was some surprise of regaining what was lost in the bloodthirsty eyes.

The shadow demon's neck was bent ninety degrees, and the mouthless face made a hoarse and stuttering sound.

""Food...appeared!"

The scene was really terrifying and weird.

It reminded Ito Makoto of the scenes when he played horror games before, when ghosts suddenly jumped on his face.

His heartbeat instinctively accelerated.

Apart from a little fear, he was more excited!

In the wind and rain, the boy stared at the shadow demon with a smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth were almost up to his ears.

"Found you, cutie!"
