A moment later, the two followed Miwako Sato to an empty conference room.
"Yes, yes, I'm so sorry."
Hitomi Mishima sat nervously in the corner, patiently making phone calls and explaining the reason to each film studio owner, asking for leave.
"Please wait here for a moment. The section chief will come to take care of you all." Sato Miwako glanced at the busy Mishima Hitomi, sighed, and went out.
The girl has been on the phone since she woke up this morning, and it has been going on for an hour.
How many jobs did they have to work...?
While waiting, Xia Jia took advantage of the time when Mishima Hitomi was dialing to casually ask her about the details of the incident.
Upon hearing that she had been invited to join the special class, Shaka couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:
“ε=(?ο`*))) Sigh, I've been advising you to stop, but I never thought you'd actually go this far?”
Hitomi Mishima complained, "What the hell... Why don't the police stop so many people from employing child labor when they know it? They even get involved! Something must be wrong with this world."
Kotoko Iwanaga shrugged: "Give up. When it comes to the mysterious, the law is basically useless."
Xia Jia teased, "Hey, Hitomi-chan, if one day someone suddenly asks you if you want to see the real world, if you want to truly live, you absolutely mustn't answer!"
"I'm afraid you'll be kidnapped by the Main God Space."
Hitomi Mishima lay on the table, sobbing, "Waaaaah, why?"
……
Meanwhile, outside the Metropolitan Police Department, countless luxury cars drove up, completing a synchronized drift to block the entrance.
The gatekeeper was terrified and rushed in in a panic.
"Oh no, oh no! A group of entrepreneurs have barged in!"
The Metropolitan Police Department was in chaos, and Inspector Megure's face was grim.
"What are these guys doing? They're already so busy. Right, tell Mori to wait a bit, I'll go after I finish this filming. Tell him not to take on so many roles so quickly!"
Before he could finish speaking, a group of bodyguards pushed aside the police who tried to stop them and led a group of bigwigs in single file.
"I heard you withheld my most capable employee. Is this how you use our taxpayers' money to do your job?"
……
meeting room.
dong dong.
There was a knock on the door, but the person who came was not the head of the special section that Xia Jia had expected, but an ordinary policeman.
He glanced at the three people in the room, then found Mishima Hitomi slumped over the table and said, "Um, Miss Mishima, there's a large group of capitalists looking for you outside. And... your mother is here too."
"Mom? Waaah, Mom's here to save me? Finally, finally I'm free! I never want to live like this again!!" Mishima Hitomi jumped out the door excitedly.
Xia Jia shrugged and walked curiously to the door to watch.
In the lobby, Mrs. Mishima was politely shaking hands with the presidents and managers of various companies.
"Oh, this is Miss Hitomi's mother. I am from the Shinomiya Zaibatsu... This is my business card."
Mrs. Mishima was stunned for a moment before examining the pile of business cards in her hand.
This is... such an astonishing network of connections. What exactly has Tong been up to outside?
After understanding the situation, she looked serious and bowed, saying:
"My daughter has received so much care from everyone."
The president of the Shinomiya Zaibatsu handed over his business card and said, "We really hope that you, my lady, can work for our company. I hope to hire you as our CEO and lead our group to the world stage."
The mother was moved to tears and shook her head.
"That's it, Mom! Tell them your daughter is still in middle school, and give them a good scolding! Come on, tell them quickly! Hurry, hurry!"
When Hitomi Mishima arrived at her mother's side with anticipation, only to find her mother on the verge of tears, her heart was filled with turmoil.
Mrs. Mishima bowed slightly: "Thank you for your kindness. My daughter has been recruited by the imperial court and will soon become a civil servant."
Then she bowed to Sato Miwako beside her and said, "I will be grateful for your care from now on."
"Hahhhhhhh!" Mishima Hitomi opened her mouth wide, bewildered by the scene before her.
……
After seeing off the presidents of various companies, Hitomi Mishima pulled her mother to a corner.
"Hey, Mom, why don't you tell them the truth?"
Mrs. Mishima said earnestly:
"Tong, you've really grown up. I never expected that you would have built such a network of connections at this age. Although Mom really wants to tell you, live freely the way you want."
But, Hitomi, we mustn't forget our roots. Isn't the imperial court encouraging you to join some special talent training institution? Listen to your mother, seize this opportunity; maybe you can even become the governor of Sakura Province.”
Mishima Hitomi's face was filled with utter despair: "Ha..."
What is all this? I have absolutely no idea.
Chapter 374 Emergency Public Relations
After learning about her daughter's experiences, Mrs. Mishima realized it wasn't a bad thing and promptly went home.
At this moment, Hitomi Mishima sat in a chair, her entire body ashen, and Shaka could even see a soul floating in her mouth.
"Oh, Grandma, I want to cut ties with Mom..."
Not long after, Megumi Kato and Nao Tomori pushed open the door and walked in.
"Oh, sorry, the section chief had something come up and hasn't come back yet."
Shaka laughed: "Oh my, Kato-san, you really are everywhere. Aren't you going to mentor your juniors?"
Kato glanced at the distraught Mishima Hitomi and frowned, saying, "I was also temporarily drafted. Take a look at this video."
Shaka took the tablet and saw several videos of demons eating people, including one of demons eating parasites...
Xia Jia asked seriously, "Are there many cases like this lately?"
Nao Tomori shrugged: "It's not that much. What you have is the total number of cases from the past month. Compared to the murders that happen every day, it's not that bad. It's just that we're in charge of this kind of thing, so there's nothing we can do about it."
Xia Jia nodded.
It seems that the intrusion of people from the past and future has not yet spread widely.
“However…” Nao Tomori continued, “The situation might be different now. Based on the past understanding of ‘fantasy monsters,’ they might erupt on a large scale because of the Descendant Teacher.”
"It's because of my novel, isn't it?"
Shaka, of course, noticed the comments above; some people were actually starting to believe that the world of anime and manga was real…
The power of faith may very well make this "phenomenon" a reality.
Kotoko Iwanaga said, "Teacher of the Descendants, be careful of the villains in your works, they might travel out of the world and cause you trouble."
Nao Tomori said seriously:
"Based on our speculation, even those ghosts now, once they know of your existence, might come looking for trouble. If necessary, I still hope that Teacher Descendant can cooperate with our actions to prevent any unforeseen events."
Xia Jia's lips twitched: "You mean, you want me to stay in jail for a few days?"
In truth, Xia Jia secretly hoped that the ghosts would come to him, which would save him a lot of trouble in finding them.
Nao Tomori said, "Actually, we really hope that Teacher Descendant can join the special class. Your storytelling ability is very effective for those urban legends."
Xia Jia shrugged: "Sorry, I don't want to be tied down. I have a lot of things to do."
but……
"I can help with dealing with ghosts."
Shaga was well aware of the current situation and the consequences of not intervening.
An invasion from the world of anime and manga is a possibility, and so is the collapse of the world. Although Shaka had a premonition of this, she obviously wanted to delay it as long as possible.
Nao Tomori dismissed Shaka's suggestion without a second thought:
"If you can cooperate with our work, that would be the greatest help."
Kotoko Iwanaga's lips curled slightly: "Tomori-chan, you'll lose Natsumi if you do this. His connections are beyond your imagination."
Reminded, Nao Tomori suddenly realized that both Megumi Kato and the demon slayer she planned to recruit were related to the person who had descended before her.
She began to feel a sense of awe: "Could it be that the Descendant Teacher also has some extraordinary identity?"
Xia Jia scratched her face, gave Iwanaga Kotoko a reproachful look, and said:
"It's nothing. I just know a great physics professor who might be able to provide you with some tools to help you kill ghosts."
"For example, a special edition ultraviolet radiation lamp."
Kato Megumi reminded her, "According to the setting in Kato's story, are demons killed by such things?"
Shaka shrugged: "No, demons can only be killed by things with the concept of 'sun,' such as the Nichirin Blade, and various breathing techniques derived from 'Sun Breathing.'"
"Then why..."
