Truth is everywhere within range

Miss Ariko Asano has a delicate face.

A little childish, but also a little mature.

This contradictory feeling gathered in her body, showing some aura of transcendence.

In Qiao Qiao's words, he looks like a powerful guy at first glance.

Ariko Asano is not what Qiao Qiao imagined.

Wearing white clothes, undershirt and scarlet hakama, she looks like a witch holding a bow.

Instead, she was dressed in a pink sweatshirt, trousers, and sneakers that are common for girls of this age, and she was carrying a cloth handbag.

Paired with shoulder-length hair and a girly hair accessory woven from white sandalwood paper.

All in all, it's very cute.

Sitting with her, there was a sinful feeling.

"Um?"

Ariko Asano was also a little surprised when she saw Qiao Qiao.

The spiritual power in this person is so strong.

Ariko Asano has been educated by miko since she was a child.

She is also very talented herself.

He awakened his spiritual power right after he was born, and started contacting ghosts and gods at the age of five.

Now fifteen years old, her spiritual power is considered good among the apprentice shrine maidens of Atsuta Shrine.

But Asano Ariko felt that her spiritual power was compared to Qiao Qiao's.

Like a glass of water and a lake.

Even Ariko Asano believes that Qiaoqiao is a lake not because he only has so much spiritual power.

But Ariko Asano's own perception limit is that much.

Why did the Soul Exorcist Association send such a powerful person?

She was confused, but then understood.

Dad must have found someone to arrange it.

Alas, when will he be able to rest assured?

However, why have I never heard of such a powerful guy before?

Is it a spiritual exterminator from another county?

No, I have to perform well and not let dad and the others look down upon me.

"Hello, I am Ariko Asano from Atsuta Shrine."

Therefore, Ariko Asano said.

"I am Qiao Qiao from the Shinjuku branch. The writing is"

Qiao Qiao patiently handed over his business card from the Soul Exorcist Association.

Due to his status as an international student, many people will mispronounce his name, so he always needs to explain.

Most Japanese people will subconsciously pronounce it as takahashi.

But it should actually be pronounced JOJO.

Of course, Qiao Qiao confirmed that he had no substitute.

His apparent identity this time is as a helper, leading Asano Ariko to eliminate spirits.

Just like the two previous times.

Therefore, he did not hide his spiritual power and released it a little to gain the other party's trust.

Probably one-tenth.

"Hey, are you an international student from China? They are really rare."

Ariko Asano doesn't have any prejudice.

A witch can remove spirits, a monk can remove spirits, and an onmyoji can also remove spirits.

Why can’t international students remove spirits?

She also heard that there was a nun in the Nerima branch who was also a powerful spiritual exterminator.

Now that I saw Qiao Qiao, I felt his powerful spiritual power again.

Ariko Asano naturally had no objection.

Maybe you can also use this to learn about the other party's methods of removing spirits and increase your knowledge.

"Then please give me some advice."

This is not the first time that Asano Ariko has had a spirit removed.

This is the second time.

The first time was an earthbound spirit near the school.

Ariko Asano easily defeated him.

If the senior who was working with her at the time hadn't talked too much, Asano Ariko even felt that the whole process would be enough in ten minutes.

This time, she replaced a senior and chose Wraith.

This is not the first time for the two spiritual masters, so they are naturally familiar with the situation.

After a few simple exchanges, they arrived at the client's location.

That's a bakery.

The name is Happy Bread.

Maybe the shop owner wants his customers to be happy after eating his bread.

Since Asano Ariko was the leader in removing spirits, she naturally walked in the front.

As soon as the two stepped into the store door, they heard a warm greeting.

"welcome!"

There was only one store manager in the store, a slightly bald man with a smile on his face full of wrinkles.

Other than that, there aren't any guests.

It seems that everyone’s desire for happiness is not that strong.

"Hello, we are from the Soul Exorcist Association. I am Ariko Asano from Atsuta Shrine. This is my companion, Qiao Qiao."

Ariko Asano was very ladylike and introduced herself with polite honorifics, and also introduced Qiao Qiao by the way.

She will not have the idea that I am a genius and everyone must respect me.

Qiao Qiao's spiritual power is much stronger than hers, and she is a senior, so of course she must respect her.

"Huh? Ah, you are finally here."

Perhaps the store manager was a little surprised by the two guys in front of him who looked like students.

He hesitated for a moment before walking out of the cashier.

"I am the manager of this bakery, Toru Suzumura."

The store manager bowed.

"Although there is a certain introduction in the information, I still want to trouble you to explain the situation in detail."

Ariko Asano smiled, looking very proficient in her business.

The store manager quickly recounted what he had encountered in detail.

Originally, Happy Bakery was very popular.

Everyone comes here to buy bread.

Later, the store manager Toru Suzumura suddenly began to have nightmares. In the dream, there was a man he had never met before.

The man just stared at Toru Suzumura without saying a word.

This is just the beginning.

The next day, a customer who had eaten the bread sold in the bakery suddenly began to suffer from vomiting and diarrhea, a fever and a headache.

Without exception.

At first, Toru Suzumura thought it was because he had not done a good job in hygiene and safety.

But after testing, there was nothing wrong with the bread he sold.

No toxins were found in the bodies of the guests who had the accident.

This situation lasted for three days.

Although the report stated that there was nothing wrong with Tohru Suzumura, everyone no longer dared to come to this bakery.

After being reminded by a friend, Suzumura Toru suddenly realized that he was being haunted by a ghost.

So I found the Soul Exorcist Association and asked for help.

After listening to Suzumura Toru's introduction, Asano Ariko took a look at the bread in the cupboards.

It looks delicious and tempting, but eating it can cause physical problems.

It's really weird.

She originally wanted to ask Qiao Qiao's opinion, but suddenly she thought of Qiao Qiao's identity and swallowed her words.

Ariko Asano closed her eyes.

Concentrate a little.

Open your eyes.

The world suddenly changed.

Everything seems to have a shadow.

Some things are shiny, and some things are duller.

Shadows surrounded Toru Suzumura's body, eroding his spiritual body.

Other than that, there's nothing unusual about it.

It's probably because it's daytime, so the evil spirits can't cause trouble.

This is spiritual vision.

Ariko Asano poured spiritual power into her eyes to see another world.

This is a Shinto magic.

Of course, people like Ariko Asano who are born with spiritual power can see some weird things more or less.

Just like those people with yin and yang eyes.

But in daily life, such a talent is not convenient.

Just imagine.

When you eat fried pork chop, you will find the pig’s soul looking at you.

When eating tamagoyaki, you will find that the soul of the chicken is looking at you.

When you eat sukiyaki, you will find the spirit of the pig watching you.

Well, you know the sukiyaki you are eating is pretending to be pork.

In short, let’s not mention it for the layman.

Witches are professionals, so they can naturally use spells to seal spiritual vision, and they can also use spells to enhance spiritual vision.

In normal times, only keep the minimum amount of inspiration, and then unlock it all when you want to remove the spirit.

That's what Ariko Asano did.

Qiao Qiao is not that troublesome.

He's usually in full swing.

At this moment.

In Qiao Qiao's field of vision.

The entire bakery was pitch black, filled with dirty black blood and an unknown mixture of flesh and blood. Those delicious-looking breads were filled with squirming, slippery, warm tentacles.

On top of Toru Suzumura was a guy with a ferocious face, who had been staring at Asano Ariko and Qiao Qiao from the moment they entered the bakery.

Met Qiao Qiao's eyes.

It showed a ferocious smile.
