The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

Seeing the surprised expression on Hachiman Hikigaya's face, Mei Isayama knew he had guessed correctly.

With a bitter smile, she explained how she had guessed.

"I had the accident at night, and it is now dusk. Therefore, at least a day must have passed."

"And if I didn't do anything bad during the time I lost my memory, I should have woken up in the Isayama family's hospital, not in this little hotel..."

".........."

Mei Isayama's speculation silenced Hachiman Hikigaya.

Indeed, given his personality, if Mei Isayama were truly alright, he would definitely call Kagura Tsuchimiya immediately to come and pick her up.

And it was indeed because he had taken into account that Isayama Mei had previously massacred the Kizuna family that he temporarily placed her in this place.

After all, although those things were not Isayama Mei's original intention, they were still done by her.

"You have killed many people."

After hesitating for a moment, and seeing that Isayama Mei was clearly prepared, Hikigaya Hachiman decided that it was better to tell the truth.

"How many?"

Isayama Mei was clearly not satisfied with this vague answer.

And who are those people? Ordinary people? Psionicists? Bystanders or their own relatives?

“Master Ji Gang.”

Due to the delay in receiving information, Hachiman Hikigaya was unaware that Mei Isayama had slaughtered another family this morning, but this answer alone was enough to make Mei Isayama feel utterly hopeless.

"I see... Such a crime cannot be forgiven even by committing seppuku."

The slaughter of the head of a family means that the two families are drawn into a vortex of mortal enmity.

Unfortunately, the people that Isayama Mei slaughtered were the Ki Tsuna family, who had an alliance with him!

"bass!"

Thinking of the serious consequences of her actions, Isayama Mei did not hesitate at all to draw her katana from the bedside and then stabbed it into her lower abdomen.

"when!"

The sharp blade collided with Hachiman Hikigaya's palm, and then, to Mei Isayama's incredulous gaze, the blade shattered into several pieces.

"Don't commit seppuku so easily!"

Hachiman Hikigaya rolled his eyes at Mei Isayama, then snatched the hilt of the sword from her stunned hand and threw it into the trash can.

"But my crimes..."

Having regained his senses from the fact that Hachiman Hikigaya's body was harder than steel, Mei Isayama lowered his head and tried to explain something in a low voice.

"Please, I went through so much trouble to rescue you from the nine-tailed fox! Don't die so easily!"

Hachiman Hikigaya pinched the bridge of his nose and felt a wave of exhaustion.

He originally thought that Mei Isayama's wearing of kimonos was just a hobby, but it turns out that even his thoughts are like those of the ancients?

Hachiman Hikigaya's words successfully stunned Mei Isayama.

After a long silence, she lowered her head, a rare blush appearing on her face.

"So, does that mean I'm yours now?"

Hikigaya Hachiman:........................

Chapter 371 Power Bank

While in some respects Mei Isayama's understanding is perfectly correct, Hachiman Hikigaya still wants to complain about what's going on in her head!

"In short, just don't try to kill yourself."

Skipping the topic, Hachiman Hikigaya got up and left the room.

A short while later, he reappeared in Isayama Mei's sight with a plate of food.

"You've been unconscious for a day, you must be very hungry, right?"

After becoming a demigod, Hachiman Hikigaya felt that he could survive without breathing or eating, but Isayama Mei, whose strength was only at the Special Grade, obviously did not have this ability.

In fact, when the aroma of food brought in by Hachiman Hikigaya wafted into Mei Isayama's nose, her stomach rumbled loudly as a protest against not eating all day.

"terribly sorry....."

Hearing his stomach growling, Mei Isayama turned his face away in shame.

"It's perfectly normal for people to need food, right? Why apologize?"

After spending some time together, Hachiman Hikigaya sensed that Mei Isayama was very concerned about how others perceived him.

Even though it was just the two of them together, her back was always straight.

Moreover, despite his repeated emphasis on not using honorifics, Mei Isayama always treated him with the mindset of a humble person serving a superior.

For some, Mei Isayama is the ideal woman in their eyes, but in Hachiman Hikigaya's view, Mei Isayama has always been wearing a false mask, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.

"About this..."

Hachiman Hikigaya's question left Mei Isayama speechless.

Her apology was completely subconscious, just like when she was a child and thought that if she did something wrong, she could reduce the punishment by admitting it before the teacher scolded her.

Has apologizing become a habit?

Hachiman Hikigaya saw through Mei Isayama's true nature at a glance.

Of course, he wouldn't develop any prejudice against him because of this; he simply felt sorry for him.

"You should rest at this hotel for a while. Of course, it would be best to go somewhere else."

While waiting in silence for Mei Isayama to finish his food, Hachiman Hikigaya took away the dishes and offered Mei Isayama some action plans for reference.

Why go to another city?

If staying in the hotel was to prevent the Isayama family or other families from discovering him, then Isayama Mei's intentions are understandable.

But the suggestion that it's best to go to another place sounds more like seeking refuge, doesn't it?

"Because a fight will break out here very soon."

Hachiman Hikigaya paused slightly as he moved outwards, then closed the door and went back downstairs.

Will a fight break out soon?

Staring at the closed door, Isayama pondered the meaning behind Hachiman Hikigaya's words.

Clearly, a lot of changes happened in Tokyo during the time she was under control.

Afterwards, Hachiman Hikigaya returned to Mei Isayama's room once more.

This time, he left about 100,000 yen in cash for Isayama Mei and reiterated that it was best to go somewhere outside of Tokyo before leaving the hotel and embarking once again on his search for the whereabouts of the Nine-Tailed Fox and Yurikawa Hana.

........

Sunset and moonrise.

Today may be a day of sorrow for psychics in Tokyo.

But for ordinary Tokyo residents, what happened today was just another day like any other.

At most, it would just mean one more news report about a gas pipeline explosion in a certain area on television.

Amidst the bustling nightscape of Tokyo, a girl with short orange hair staggers along the street.

Although her beautiful face and voluptuous figure certainly attracted many people's attention, the dark aura emanating from her body made many men hesitate to approach her.

Ignoring the surprised look from the man beside her, the girl continued walking along the street.

But just as she was passing by a ramen shop, a delicious aroma suddenly grabbed the girl's attention, causing her to stray from her path and step inside the shop.

"welcome!"

The shop owner behind the counter greeted the new customers warmly.

However, the girl did not respond, but instead sat down at a table.

"Tonkotsu ramen, large bowl, noodles on the firmer side."

The energetic voice was completely at odds with the girl's gloomy aura at that moment.

However, the clerk in charge of taking the order only glanced at her in surprise before writing it down and sending it to the kitchen.

"Click..."

Shortly after the shop assistant left, a mournful sound suddenly came from the table beneath the girl.

"The powerful obsession that drove me out of my hiding place was just to eat a bowl of ramen? Are you kidding me!"

The nine-tailed fox, possessing Yurikawa Hana's body, growled angrily at the air.

"Gurgle........"

Just then, Yurikawa's stomach started to protest.

Feeling the weakness coursing through her body, a hint of helplessness flashed in the nine-tailed fox's eyes.

Although the life force contained in this body is extremely large, it is still just an ordinary human body in the end.

To prevent Yurikawa from breaking down before it could be used, the nine-tailed fox had no choice but to endure it, even though she was furious that she had to go out for a bowl of ramen.

After waiting for a few minutes, a bowl of fragrant ramen was placed in front of the nine-tailed fox.

Before the nine-tailed fox could even examine what was so delicious about the ramen in front of her, Yurikawa Hana's body had already begun to move on its own.

At this moment, the nine-tailed fox remained like a spectator, quietly watching Yurikawa Hana wolf down her ramen from within her body.

Soon, Yurikawa Hana swallowed a large bowl of ramen.

"Is this good?"

Seeing that the ramen bowl was empty, the nine-tailed fox finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as it was about to regain control of Yurikawa's body and return to the hidden stronghold, it discovered that Yurikawa's hand, holding the bowl, was already raised high.

"one more bowl!"
