Truth is everywhere within range

It’s not just Tokyo Big Sight.

The buildings in the entire port area were plunged into darkness.

In the already dark rainstorm, it suddenly added a bit of horror.

The area around Qiao Qiao suddenly became dark.

The phone screen lit up, illuminating his and Kanji Sakagami's faces.

"You mean, you can predict cases that will happen in the future?"

Qiao Qiao checked the situation outside and asked.

"To be precise, I was able to get help from the victims in the incident. I could feel their emotions at that time and experience it all as a witness."

he added.

"I can only get the feelings of the victims. I have no way of knowing where or when these incidents happened, or even whether they have happened."

"This feeling was not frequent at first, but later it became more and more frequent. Even now, I can't help but have all kinds of tragic scenes popping up in my head."

Kanji Sakagami is like a radio station that receives distress signals, receiving distress signals from the entire world, the past, present, and future all the time.

Those distress signals are never-ending and cannot be blocked.

Madeleine (Mayday Line) electric tower, shouting 24/7.

"After learning about this ability, I was a little scared. I went to doctors and exterminators, but they couldn't find the problem. They just thought it was my own delusion."

"The first few books I wrote were later confirmed to be events that had already happened."

"So I began to collect a large amount of information, compare it one by one with the pictures in my mind, find out those events that have not happened yet, and create them."

"It would be great if my novels could prevent those things from happening, that's what I think."

Kanji Sakagami gradually calmed down and then said again.

"However, every attempt failed. No one could predict when the event would happen. I didn't notice it until the picture in my mind became reality."

"What I see is not an uncertain future, but destiny."

He was a little desperate.

But even so, Kanji Sakagami did not give up.

His presence here right now is the best proof.

“Are you tweeting because you want to change the future?”

Qiao Qiao thought of Ibuki's tweet he had seen before.

"Yes, in the pictures I saw before, there were very few people at the venue because of the typhoon. Everyone was isolated and helpless, and eventually fell into despair. I want to change these situations, hoping to reverse fate."

Kanji Sakagami's idea is very simple. If he can make a difference between reality and the picture he sees, then according to the butterfly effect, the future may also change.

“I tried various methods including warning the organizer, but there was no way to prevent the doujinshi sale from happening. And, to be honest, until just now, I wasn’t sure that this doujinshi sale was what I saw. That time, so I’m still looking for people with the perspective I see.”

simply put.

Although Kanji Sakagami could see the entire incident, he could not know the specific time and place.

For example, in a murder case, he could see how the criminal committed the crime, how he killed the victim, and even how the victim felt when he died.

But the prisoner's face, the layout of the room, and all the details he saw were not real, and this case did not necessarily happen in Heguo.

Kanji Sakagami initially searched for the case based on the pictures in his mind, but he had no way of starting and made many mistakes.

For example, at this doujinshi sales meeting, in the picture obtained by Kanji Sakagami, it is not for women, but for men. The location, scale, etc. of the event are not exactly the same, and even the barriers are not exactly the same. What affected the venue and the outside world was not necessarily a heavy rain.

Kanji Sakagami has been paying attention to various comic exhibitions around the world since C95, but there is no way to determine it in advance just relying on such ambiguous conditions.

But now, he is basically sure.

This doujinshi sales meeting was the one he had foreseen.

Storms, signal interruptions, power outages, everything is the same as the events in my mind.

Next, there should be a mass panic, and some people try to leave.

"No, we can't let everyone leave."

Kanji Sakagami was still thinking when he saw Qiao Qiao packing his things and walking out of the stairwell while holding on to himself.

The venue was a little noisy. Everyone used their mobile phones to light up the scene. People they knew gathered together, forming small groups one after another.

Qiao Qiao led the anxious Kanji Sakagami back to Ayano Fujiwara's stall.

"Huh? Qiao Sang, you've got a girl you don't know again. Is it a boy?"

Ariko saw Kanji Sakagami's face through the light of the mobile phone next to her.

"Who is this?"

"His name is Kanji Sakagami, and his pen name is Ibuki Kanade. I will explain the specific situation to you later."

Qiao Qiao said simply.

"???"

Several people were confused.

Isn't Ibuki that beautiful girl writer?

Is this boy Ibuki? ? ?

Qiao Sang's ability to joke has improved a lot recently.

Qiao Qiao didn't care about the confusion of others and found Xingchuan Yuyan.

"Hoshikawa-san, what do you think of the current situation?"

"Well, the young monk feels that this is not a simple power outage. There is an unsettling force surging outside. We'd better notify the Soul Exterminator Association."

Xingchuan Yuyan's expression was serious, looking at the deep purple thunder and lightning outside the window.

"Let's go first."

Someone among the participants said this.

Kanji Sakagami glanced at Qiao Qiao.

"Don't worry, I will let them stay here well."

Qiao Qiao said, taking out the revolver from his backpack.

The blanks were loaded, the muzzle of the gun was pointed upward, and the trigger was pulled.

Bang——

The huge gunfire echoed in the huge venue, and the echo could even be heard.

In an instant, the entire venue fell silent.

Everyone looked in the direction of Qiao Qiao.

He held the gun and looked calm.

"Everyone, please calm down, don't leave your current location, and count the number of people according to the distribution of the stalls. I need an accurate list within ten minutes."

He then took out his soul-killing certificate.

"I am an exorcist from the Exorcist Association. There is currently reason to believe that a strange disaster has occurred in Odaiba and surrounding areas. Please stay calm. We are trying to contact the outside world and obtain support."

Qiao Qiao's words caused a small discussion, but after looking at the weapon in Qiao Qiao's hand, no one dared to raise objections.

Then, Qiao Qiao asked Xingchuan Yuyan to stand up again.

"This is Master Yongcheng from Sensoji Temple. Many people must know him. Please rest assured that Master Yongcheng will protect everyone."

"???"

Xingchuan Yuyan, who was pushed in front of everyone, looked confused.
