Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

Tamamo-mae squatted down, her fox eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Hino Daisuke, whose eyes were rolling back and who was about to pass out, and said with a smile.

"If your boss knew you had said such things, he would definitely punish you again."

"You?"

Lady Eight-Shaku shook her head, glancing with slight disdain at the Slit-Mouthed Woman standing there with a blank expression.

"She doesn't deserve the same treatment as me yet. If she wants to improve her treatment, she must make contributions and wholeheartedly serve the boss."

Tamamo-mae heard this and complained speechlessly.

"I recently learned a human word, and it's really suitable for you."

Lady Eight-Shaku was very curious.

"What word?"

"Scab."

After Tamamo-mae said this word, she didn't care whether Lady Eight-Shaku understood it or not, she just slightly opened her lips and gently blew a breath towards Hino Daisuke, who was about to pass out.

In just an instant, Hino Daisuke, who was about to faint due to his body's self-preservation mechanism, instantly regained consciousness and clearly felt the intense pain coming from his abdomen, wrists, and ankles.

He wanted to scream, but Lady Eight-Shaku was quick-witted and grabbed a towel from the side, crumpled it up, and then rudely reached out another hand, dislocated Hino Daisuke's jaw, and stuffed the towel directly into his mouth.

"I never thought that I would use my charm technique on this guy for the first time."

Hearing Tamamo-mae's words, Lady Eight-Shaku thought that this was right. As a legendary fox spirit, how could she not have this basic skill?

Then, she curiously asked.

"You haven't used it on the boss?"

"What are you thinking?"

Tamamo-mae rolled her eyes, even this complaining action carried a natural charm when she did it.

"If I had used it on that guy, let alone drinking milk, would I still be alive now?"

"That's true."

Lady Eight-Shaku nodded, then looked at Hino Daisuke, who was lying on the ground struggling like a worm, and said softly.

"Then, what should we do with this guy next?"

Hearing Lady Eight-Shaku's words, the Slit-Mouthed Woman timidly said.

"Um... didn't the boss say... we can't kill people?"

"Don't be silly."

Tamamo-mae stood up and directly raised a foot, stepping on a certain part of Hino Daisuke's body.

Her feet were fair and soft, and in theory, it should be a reward.

But...

Tamamo-mae was wearing wooden clogs.

"Pa."

Just from Hino Daisuke's suddenly enlarged pupils, the distortion of his facial expression, and the muffled cracking sound, one could tell that he was now in a pain that ordinary people could not imagine.

"This thing..."

Tamamo-mae looked down at Hino Daisuke, whose eggs were crushed, with a look of disdain in her eyes.

"Can this even be considered a person?"

"Oh? Is there such a saying?"

Hearing this, the Slit-Mouthed Woman suddenly transformed from her original shy and cautious appearance into a fanatical excitement.

"That's great."

Don't look at Tamamo-mae, Lady Eight-Shaku, and the Slit-Mouthed Woman looking like humans, and even the kind of very beautiful humans, but in reality, they are still evil spirits born from the negative emotions of humans.

They are the very few types of evil spirits that can first restrain, and finally completely obliterate their instinctive desire to kill people, but...

Killing people, or torturing them severely before killing them, they would not have the slightest soft heart, let alone any pity.

......

On the other side, the female manager was walking on the street with a face full of worry.

Over the years, she really couldn't stand Hino Daisuke's behavior.

Not only did he exploit the underage girls under him, treating them as tools for profit, but she also heard that in private... he had done many disgusting things.

As a manager, this woman named Horiguchi Chiharu has the most contact with the members of the Sweet Bullet idol group and knows them the most.

She is very clear that although the group is not well-known yet, each member has potential, especially Toyohama Kazuka, who not only has outstanding appearance conditions, but also, and most importantly, Toyohama Kazuka knows what kind of idol she wants to be, not for the fans' pursuit and vanity, but to become the ideal self in her mind.

Horiguchi Chiharu hasn't seen such a pure and hardworking girl for many years.

Giving up such a natural idol for a moment of popularity is simply the most foolish decision.

It's a pity... Horiguchi Chiharu is just a manager and doesn't have the power to make decisions.

Just as she was worrying about Toyohama Kazuka and thinking about what to do next to help Toyohama Kazuka, the phone in her arms suddenly rang.

Horiguchi Chiharu took out her phone and found that it was an unknown number. She first took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and then answered the phone.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Is this Ms. Horiguchi Chiharu?"

"This is she. May I ask who you are...?"

"I am a staff member of the Shiguong Group. You should have heard of the Shiguong Group, right?"

"Shiguong Group..."

Horiguchi Chiharu had naturally heard of this name. That was a behemoth in the business world. How could she not have heard of it?

She just didn't understand why a staff member of the Shiguong Group would suddenly call her?

There was no intersection at all?

Just as Horiguchi Chiharu was puzzled, the staff member of the Shiguong Group on the other end of the phone spoke again.

"The agency you're at has been acquired by our Four Palace Group. After a ten-second discussion, we've decided that you will be responsible for all the company's daily operations and future decisions. I'll fax you the specific documents shortly."

"Huh?"

Faced with this sudden news, Horiguchi Chiharu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Why is it..."

"You don't need to ask so much. You only need to know that the name Hino Daisuke will cease to exist for you from now on,"

The Four Palace Group's staff member said in a flat tone.

"You only need to accomplish one thing, and we won't interfere with the rest."

"What thing?"

"Keep Toyohama and Hana, and maintain the idol group she's in. Of course, you don't need to particularly favor them with resources. I believe you'll make a fair decision."

...

At the same time, inside a café near Soubu High School.

"Takanashi-san..."

Looking at the test paper handed over by Takanashi Rikka, Futaba Rio's hands began to tremble. Enduring her anger, she raised her head to look at Takanashi Rikka across from her, who looked innocent and was hiding behind Yuigahama Yui, and said, word by word.

"Are you... deliberately making fun of me?"

Don't be fooled by Takanashi Rikka's severe chunibyo. In reality, she's a very shy person, especially when she's not in chunibyo mode.

Faced with Futaba Rio's question, she could also hear the other party's restrained anger, and cautiously replied.

"N-No... I'm not..."

"You..."

Futaba Rio looked down at the test paper again, even feeling a little incredulous.

"How on earth did you manage to score only eighteen points in math! ! !"

Chapter 464: Shoko's True Feelings, Yui-knot Shrine Makes Great Contributions

"This... I... That..."

Faced with Futaba Rio's questioning, Takanashi Rikka timidly hid behind Yuigahama Yui. When her gaze swept to Makinohara Shoko sitting there, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in her eyes, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and she hurriedly said.

"Makinohara-san... didn't she only score forty-something points too..."

"She's not the same as you."

Futaba Rio rubbed her temples, with a very headache-like expression.

Makinohara Shoko, although she hasn't awakened as a psychic yet, she had communicated with Yosuga the last time on Hino Island, and knew that even if her body was cured and the Adolescence Syndrome disappeared, she would likely continue to maintain her high school student body.

Because of this, she was already preparing for how to integrate into the Quantum Mechanics Society's life after her heart disease was cured.

The main problem was her grades.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Makinohara Shoko only scored forty-something points, but she jumped directly from elementary school knowledge to junior high school, and then all the way to her current second year of high school, using only a few months to catch up with the progress that normal students need several years to master.

Moreover, Makinohara Shoko's mind isn't bad, and she's also very diligent.

Futaba Rio estimated that in another half a month, or at most a month, Makinohara Shoko would be able to reach the upper-middle level among the overall students of Soubu High School.

On the other hand, Takanashi Rikka...

"Takanashi-san..."

Yukino Yukinoshita, who was in charge of tutoring liberal arts, also finished reading Takanashi Rikka's test paper at this time. She raised her head to look at the other party, revealing the same expression as Futaba Rio, and asked a soul-searching question.

"Are you really human? Could it be... that you're impersonating one?"

After checking all the exam answer sheets, Futaba Rio and Yukino Yukinoshita roughly had an idea of Takanashi Rikka's level.

Liberal arts were basically hovering around the passing line. With a little effort, it shouldn't be a problem.

English was Takanashi Rikka's forte. Her grades could even be considered upper-middle. According to her, it was because she had to look up some... forbidden books? Ancient documents? Archives recording information about the invisible boundary line?

Regardless of whether it was chunibyo or not, in short, there was no need to worry about this subject.

But when it came to science...

Total annihilation.

Don't even mention passing. If it weren't for knowing Takanashi Rikka's existence, Futaba Rio would have found it hard to believe that this test paper could have been written by a high school student... no, that this could actually have been written by a student who had attended high school?

Pure fabrication, completely clueless!

"It's too late."

Futaba Rio pushed up her glasses and sighed slightly.

"There's only this weekend left before the mid-term exams. Even if you study day and night, Takanashi-san's science grades won't be able to reach the passing level."

"Eh?"

Takanashi Rikka was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then suddenly looked excited and tentatively asked.

"In that case... can I leave?"

"What are you thinking about..."

Futaba Rio frowned slightly when she heard Takanashi Rikka's off-the-wall remarks, and her tone became serious.

"According to your current level, you only have a chance to get a passing grade or above in the next exam if you start studying now. So, start studying desperately now!"

Takanashi Rikka replied in a low voice.

"Yes..."

"Your voice is too soft, I can't hear you!"

Takanashi Rikka trembled and stood up immediately, frightened.

"Yes! I understand!"
