They all thought they probably wouldn't be able to get back to their house this time.
But an unexpected result occurred.
Hearing the distant wailing of police sirens, and glancing at Mutsu and her adoptive father who were staring blankly at her, Toyokawa Shoko, who hadn't retreated with the three of them, borrowed Mutsu's phone.
Then she dialed the number she had already memorized.
"Grandpa, it's me, Toyokawa Shoko."
Upon hearing the sound from this side, there was a moment of silence on the other side.
Finally, he answered in a dignified voice.
"You still know how to make a phone call, huh! I told you, how could a young lady like you survive without the support of the Toyokawa family?"
"That way, you should give up on your father sooner, and from now on I will treat you as my own daughter, just as I loved your mother."
These were very harsh words; if it were any other time, Toyokawa Shoko would have already shed tears.
However, at this moment, Toyokawa Shoko listened to the crackling sound of the flames around her and looked down to play with the blood-stained scythe in her hand.
"Grandpa, I killed someone."
"what?!"
An incredulous gasp came from the other end of the phone.
Toyokawa Shoko has figured it out. She can't let go of things like face and self-esteem, but sometimes she's just too naive about many things.
Without waiting for a reply, Xiangzi continued speaking.
“Killed...eight...now there are nine.”
I'm not here to plead for him. I'll bear the consequences myself. This matter has nothing to do with my father; I'm just here to tell you about it. Please don't make things difficult for him.
"Don't joke around! Xiangzi! Where are you... Dudu!"
No matter how angry the shouts came from the other end of the line, Xiangzi hung up the phone, turned around and looked at Muhe and her father. Someone had just gotten up, and she added insult to injury.
"Father, if I leave, please find a normal job. Don't give up. Mother will be sad to see you like this."
"Mu, if I don't come back, just tell everyone the truth."
Xiangzi didn't know what he was feeling when he said those words.
She looked back and saw that the three people from before had disappeared, seemingly because of the approaching sirens.
She looked down; she was not injured.
Everything was like a dream, with only the bloodied corpses on the ground seemingly telling the story.
She walked forward, heading in the direction of the siren.
"Xiang..."
Ruo Yemu wanted to follow, but Xiangzi waved her hand.
"Don't follow me."
We turned the corner and came to an alley.
Xiangzi went inside.
She squatted down and began to cover her mouth and cry.
She didn't know why she had survived, and even wondered if it was like the horror movie "The Nightmare Dollhouse" that she had watched when she was still a young lady, and that it was all a dream she had created to deceive herself when she was captured and tortured by those residents.
When he wakes up, he will find himself in a cold, damp basement prison, and they have just sacrificed his father and are now going to sacrifice him.
Ultimately, he's just an ordinary middle school student. He doesn't have the mindset of Kazuma Sato, who can adapt to the local environment without any problem when he goes to another world, nor does he have the experience of killing people in games in his early years like Kirito.
Her behavior just now seemed more like a stress response; one could even say she forced herself to overcome her inner barriers.
She was weak, but she never died; she was simply suppressed by reason.
She started to cry, and then, disregarding all decorum, she burst into loud sobs.
She used to think that the scenes of people crying in animations were just rhetorical devices, but today she truly experienced it firsthand.
I cried until my eyelids ached, my head hurt, and I almost fainted, then I regained consciousness.
Then laugh.
"laugh!"
"Ah ha ha ha ha ha!"
Her emotions were completely out of control, like a runaway truck, and she started laughing wildly again.
This is how humanity behaves when it is in utter chaos and despair.
According to a cosmic race that was declassified from all timelines and spatial causality four years ago, middle school girls are the group with the greatest emotional fluctuations in all of humanity. Coupled with such a huge stimulus, if this continues, the next step might be to question who one truly is.
I want to split my thoughts into three parts with Sayo Yasuda, become myself, Yoshio Yasuda, and create something like Shoko Toyokawa and Ms. Oblivionis, just like Beatrice.
But at that moment, the chat room she had previously ignored and automatically shrunk lit up again.
[Kerry: Wait, did we forget someone?]
[Sato Kazuma: Yeah, where are our new teammates?]
[Kirigaya Kazuto: Should we go up and look for them? If the new teammate was sent to the hospital for a checkup, wouldn't they just be transferred to the lab?]
[Sato Kazuma: Why doesn't this crappy chat room even have the ability to @ people?]
[Sato Kazuma: Speaking of which, isn't it that blue-haired girl? I think I saw a few people fighting her when I came from the parking lot just now. She's the one who lives next door to us.]
[Kerry: It's her]
[Kerry: You should be able to sense the abnormality in your body by now. If you've seen this message, you can commit suicide to avoid trouble. You'll be resurrected shortly, and your identity in human society will be dead.]
Xiangzi looked at the chat room in front of him.
The chaotic thoughts in her mind were gradually replaced by logic, and she thought about it for a moment.
Next door? Could it be that the three people talking inside this thing are the three who live next door?
Do they still know why my injury was able to heal? In other words, it's related to them.
Should I...should I listen to them?
However, while she hesitated, the police arrived.
She hesitated for a moment before choosing to go with the police.
……
As a result, after she refused to go to the hospital for a check-up because she had no money, and it was confirmed that she really had no injuries, the police simply took a statement from her and let her go.
This incident was classified as an extremely heinous cult case, and many people connected with those individuals were arrested.
Many local residents could be considered witnesses, and the victims were the daughter of the Toyokawa zaibatsu and the children of two well-known celebrities, and three people were suspected to be under a very high level of secrecy.
Then there's the house next door to these two important people, and the previous owner was still the same person.
This happened even though the police station had already received the call but delayed responding.
The surrounding surveillance cameras had been replaced by cult members long ago.
Their buffs are already maxed out; their superiors can forget about getting retirement benefits.
After examining the scene, it was determined that the cult members either misused explosives or used hallucinogenic gases, leading to a large-scale killing spree.
Then, in order to protect his young mistress, the driver of the Ruoye family drove the car into the crowd.
As for Xiangzi's claim that she also killed someone, the police immediately cut off the video and audio recordings and didn't even dare to touch a pen.
They heard that the Metropolitan Police Department's chief of staff and vice-chief had gone to Toyokawa's residence to apologize. The higher-ups are probably sweating bullets right now, let alone them.
Although the Toyokawa family seems to have given up on this young lady, who knows if they might cause trouble for them if something really happens?
Before the Buddha Mother could even implement her plan to utilize the Metropolitan Police Department, it was thwarted by the powerful chaebols and the corrupt practice of bribery between officials and businessmen.

Chapter 119 Xiang's Father! He was afraid!
[Toyokawa Shoko: You mean you're basically doing something like vigilante justice on the streets?]
After returning home from the Metropolitan Police Department, Xiangzi composed himself and then opened a chat room to chat with the three people.
On my phone, the official report from the Metropolitan Police Department has been released, announcing that all the suspects have been apprehended.
Kerry and his two companions are still in the sewers. They have decided that if they can't go home, the base left behind by the US military will become theirs.
However, it would be best to go back if possible. But right now, Metropolitan Police Department personnel are collecting evidence on the street. Otherwise, if they can't connect to the internet, the three of them won't be able to enjoy Kirito's intelligence advantage.
Don't underestimate Kirito's intelligence network!
Kazuma had already repeated everything he had said to Kirito, and also explained the adventures he and Kerry had previously shared that Kirito didn't know.
[Sato Kazuma: That's what they say, but only Kerry thinks that way. Kirito and I are just doing it out of necessity to avoid going hungry.]
[Kiritani Kazuto: Indeed]
[Toyokawa Shoko: I see]
[Sato Kazuma: It's a thankless task, isn't it?]
Xiangzi didn't say it, but she thought it was great. To disregard fame and fortune and do things to maintain stability was exactly what she had imagined these people to be.
If it were her in the past, she probably would have responded directly with something like "very cool".
But now... Xiangzi looked at his father, who was hiding in his room with the door closed.
She checked her phone again. She had sent Mu a lot of messages, but Mu hadn't replied to any of them. She wondered how Mu was doing.
After this incident, Mutsu's mother would probably say, "Don't associate with that down-on-his-luck Toyokawa anymore."
Such a statement is possible, isn't it?
And it seems that I'm now considered an immortal by them.
Having never played a Souls-like game before, Xiangzi couldn't quite grasp the concept. All he could understand at the moment was that he could be resurrected after dying.
This made her somewhat happy, but after the initial happiness came the feeling of trouble.
