I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

Evil spirits have an instinct to seek evil, and humans have endless desires.

Anyway, Yoshizaki's precognitive dreams rarely fail, so I still need to be wary of that evil spirit.

What was once a large village, Jieshen Village, is now under the control of numerous police officers. Police lines have been set up at the village entrance, and armed police officers patrol the area, giving it the appearance of military-style management.

The collisions between the two prevented the evil spirits from descending; each attempt to descend was thwarted by the cult leader.

As Higa Kotoko drove, she kept thinking about these things.

Was the evil spirit also taken away by the videotape? Or—

From the statues found in the cult leader's room, Higa Kotoko did not sense the presence of the evil spirit.

Although he died because of the videotape, he lived a carefree life for hundreds of years, so it was all worthwhile.

Kotoko led Kunihiko Aso through layers of checkpoints to the innermost part of the village. At this moment, there were still temporary flat-roofed houses outside the village. Each flat-roofed house had an octagonal bell hanging in the corner and a talisman engraved in front of the door.

"An official exorcism organization? I never thought such an organization actually existed in this world."

Faced with all the information revealed above, Kunihiko Aso was somewhat shocked. To be honest, during his previous research, he always thought he was a pioneer, that he was the only one in the world who had discovered the existence of "ghosts" using scientific methods.

But seeing this scene now, he realized that everything he had done before was simply because he hadn't stepped into that mysterious world.

In fact, the government has had such an organization for a long time.

As Kotoko moved forward, she would occasionally see groups of explorers returning, some of whom were injured.

One of the wizards, seeing Kotoko arrive, immediately stepped forward: "Miss Kotoko, the curse ahead is growing stronger. We're heading in the right direction, but the spirits taken away from Minakami Village are still lingering on this land. Many exorcists are injured, and our exploration is progressing more and more slowly..."

At this moment, he noticed Kunihiko Aso beside him and couldn't help but ask him;

"Who is this?"

“A folklorist knows the exact location. Let all the exorcists who are exploring come back. I'll go with him.”

“But if he were an ordinary person, unless you constantly bless him, he would likely be killed by the energy leaking from inside the door. However, you have recently suffered serious injuries, so if that’s the case…”

The exorcist seemed to want to stop it, but was stopped by a single look from Kotoko Higa.

"Now set up a barrier at the entrance to seal off the entire area. We'll talk when I get back."

"Ok."

Helpless, he had no choice but to retreat.

At that moment, Kotoko took out a white talisman from her sleeve, handed it to Kunihiko Aso, and commanded in an unyielding tone, "Take this. If you put it down, you're dead. Now take me inside!"

Kunihiko Aso was terrified. He quickly gripped the talisman tightly, his face contorted in a grimace, and slowly walked forward. Only after Kotoko urged him on did he quicken his pace slightly.

Qinzi clasped her hands together, forming a mudra, and slowly began to chant a mantra.

As a faint white light flashed by in the reflection of Kunihiko Aso's glasses, the chilly feeling in the surroundings began to dissipate.

At this moment, if anyone saw Kotoko's wrist, they would see two bright red, crisscrossing wounds on her wrist, forming the shape of a door.

……

Yoshizaki first accompanied Mako back to her dormitory, took out the camera, and then took a taxi to the police station.

Because Kotoko had previously contacted the police station...

The police cooperated very well and quickly used various excuses to get Yamamura Mako to hand over her camera.

A moment later, a relaxed Yoshizaki walked out of the police station with a dejected Mako.

When Yoshizaki walked out of the police station, he didn't see the police officer behind him, whose face had been all smiles, suddenly darken.

The policeman was playing with the camera.

A moment later, he skillfully disassembled the camera, then took out a very thin, polished white stone slab from the back of the camera. He played with the slab, his expression extremely playful.

"I never imagined that stone would still exist in this era, and that it would be made into something like this. It's really interesting."

A talisman was pasted on the man's neck.

In fact, although Kotoko's derivation process was wrong, the result was correct.

Indeed, many forces are paying close attention to this sect and the affairs of Minakami Village.

Yoshizaki Kawa and the three protected individuals naturally came into their view as well.

Chapter 173 Stone

Stone, a special stone rumored to be imbued with the aura of hell, possesses extremely unique power.

This stone has a certain probability of appearing only near the gates of hell.

Furthermore, because the stone was tainted by the aura of hell, it possessed some special powers, such as suppressing weak evil spirits, communicating with the power of hell, and weaving rules.

The reason this camera possesses such special power lies in the power carried by the "stone".

A sharp-eyed man could discern the immense power of the milky-white stone slab simply by observing its patterns.

Stones tainted by hell possess the power to suppress weak evil spirits, but they also possess the power to attract powerful evil spirits.

The power of hell is avoided by some evil spirits, but the rules it contains also attract powerful evil spirits.

"Qingshui, can you tell where this door is located?"

The policeman looked up at his shoulder and asked.

"You didn't see anything? You just felt fear?"

"In that case, take this back and report. By the way, you seemed to be trembling ever since that girl walked in. What did you see on her?"

The man's expression turned serious. Qing Shui Hui was an evil spirit he had subdued from a filthy place. It was neither a ghost nor a demon, but an evil spirit formed from the filth of many people who had died in the rotting place.

The next moment, a twisted, nauseating aura coalesced into a hand, extending two fingers to grasp the thin stone slab. It then pulled backward, and almost instantly, a flash of black lightning seemed to streak across the sky. After a moment of oppression,

Hearing Yu Ling's words, the man was somewhat disappointed;

You should know that Kotoko is the top exorcist in the public eye.

This means that the latter has formed a soul, but this only involved spending less than a few minutes in the same room with the girl and glancing at her.

Kotoko's main reason for not being listed as an untouchable is that she occasionally cooperates with the organization and is not very aggressive.

"You shouldn't feel fear."

Even when you talk to it, you need to use special methods to resonate with it, and then briefly tell it your purpose before it will carry out its task.

"Don't you know?"

But just now, it not only spoke to itself on its own initiative, but even mixed subjective opinions into its words.

Has the filth in the clear water been imbued with emotion?

But this is enough to prove how much the organization values ​​those three girls and that man named Yoshizaki Kawa.

How could this be? What exactly is that girl?

No one knew the profound impact these few words had on the man. After all, creatures like Qingshui Hui were merely animals that acted according to rules. They were incapable of understanding anything overly complex; they were completely soulless and mindless inanimate objects.

“I… am being… targeted, and given emotions. Now, I’m afraid.”

The next moment, the evil spirit behind him slowly opened its mouth, and from the overflowing black aura, it uttered words that sent chills down the man's spine.

It is precisely because of this that Shimizu Emi does not possess human emotions, nor does she experience any so-called "fear," nor does she tremble.

Yoshizaki Kawa and the three girls were all listed as "untouchables" by the organization. It should be noted that being an untouchable means that even the organization fears them. Even Kotoko was not listed as an "untouchable".

The man suddenly asked, he was actually a little curious.

But just now, the man did sense the latter's emotional fluctuations.

The man suppressed his shock, and his gaze toward Shimizu Eri was no longer as trusting as before, but he still said, "Shimizu Eri, eat this, and let's go."

"Can...I swallow it?"

A childish voice came from behind him. The man looked shocked. It had grown up again. Shimizu Emizu had learned to vibrate the air and make sounds. It was expressing its desires to him.

"No, we'll talk about this when we get back to the organization!"

The man immediately stopped Qing Shuihui, then ordered him to swallow the "stone," and after spitting it out, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "Take it back!"

"Help me tear off the talisman and bring it back to the organization."

The talisman housed the man's soul, granting him the ability to walk through all filth and store things in his stomach through the Clear Water Filth. With the help of the Clear Water Filth, he could travel through the world regardless of terrain.

Upon hearing this, the disgusting black aura stirred slightly, tore off the talisman from the back of the man's neck, and swallowed it the next moment.

Almost instantly, it disappeared from the spot.

The policeman whose talisman was torn off nearly collapsed to the ground, but he quickly regained his senses and grabbed the wall for support. He was feeling dizzy and had just begun to have some questions in his mind when he saw the perfectly intact camera in front of him, and a flood of memories rushed back to him.

"By the way, the orders from above are that I need to lock this thing in a safe."

The man scratched his head, then seemed to immediately regain his senses, and the confusion in his eyes quickly cleared.

……

Back in the office, seeing Mako's sullen expression, Yoshizaki Kawa offered her his camera, but Mako shook her head and refused, saying, "I can't take my teacher's things."

"How about I consider it a loan from your teacher?"
