Chapter 70: People Scary People, A Surprise Prepared for Evil Spirits

Jianzi felt like her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

On the way home, Jianzi was still trying to maintain the calm facade of being "unseen," attempting to shake off Shen Jue and slip away quietly.

However, Shen Jue appeared beside her without warning, bringing with him a sense of oppression that she could not understand and that made her tremble deep in her soul.

It wasn't a sinister and terrifying evil spirit, but rather a purer, more direct sensory oppression.

Shen Jue's gaze as he looked at her profile seemed to pierce through her layers of feigned strength, directly gazing into the deepest fear within her heart.

Seeing this, Zi shuddered! He instinctively tried to back away, but found his legs as heavy as lead.

She tried to force a blank expression as if she hadn't seen anything, but her lips twitched uncontrollably, and her whole body trembled.

Shen Jue, who was close to Jianzi, seemed to take a step forward. This slight movement made Jianzi feel as if she were being choked by an invisible giant hand, making it difficult for her to even breathe.

Jianzi's vision began to blur, and a buzzing sound filled her ears.

The strong will that he had cultivated in order to pretend he couldn't see crumbled instantly in front of Shen Jue.

Their once-proud psychological defenses were now as fragile as a sheet of paper.

Seeing that Zi's eyes, which she always tried to open wide to pretend she couldn't see, were now unfocused because of fear, and her pupils trembled slightly.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on her delicate nose, and her originally fair cheeks were now flushed with an unnatural redness.

"You can see it, right?" Shen Jue's voice carried an undeniable certainty, as if he were simply stating a fact.

This sentence became the final straw that broke Jianzi's back.

"Mother!"

Seeing that Zi had subconsciously let out a short and cute sound.

The next moment, Jianzi's legs, which she was struggling to support, gave way, and she fell straight backward like a puppet with its strings cut.

In her last moments before losing consciousness, her only thought was: "How can there be ghosts and monsters that enjoy scaring people so much?"

Seeing her petite body sway gently, she then softly collapsed into Shen Jue's arms.

Shen Jue then realized that he might have gone a bit too far, causing the JK girl, Jianzi, to faint with tears streaming down her face and a smile on her lips that seemed to say she could finally cry.

Jianzi's long, black hair spread out like ink, brushing against Shen Jue's arms.

The girl's eyes were tightly closed, her long eyelashes trembled uneasily, and her small lips were slightly parted, as if she were still breathing silently.

She's the adorable girl who can pretend to be calm no matter how ferocious the evil spirits are, but is actually panicking inside.

At this moment, she completely let down her guard, like a kitten that had fainted from fright, lying quietly in Shen Jue's arms, her cheeks still flushed, looking both fragile and endearing.

Fortunately, there was no one around at the end of the alley, otherwise Shen Jue would have had a hard time explaining his current behavior.

If he were to be reported to the police by passersby as a stalker and molester as soon as he arrived in Japan, and if this got back to the mainland, Shen Jue's reputation as the Sun Emperor would be ruined, Shen Jue thought to himself.

So, Shen Jue, carrying Jianzi, quickly returned to Jianzi's front door and rang the doorbell.

When Jianzi woke up from her coma, she smelled a familiar scent and touched a familiar bed.

Seeing that Zi had completely relaxed, she said softly, "So, it really was a dream?"

"Sister! You're awake?" Kyosuke Yotsuya, Miko's younger brother who was in fifth grade, was by her side and shouted happily when Miko woke up.

Miko smiled and comforted her worried younger brother. She went downstairs to the living room and saw Shen Jue talking with Miko's mother, Touko Yotsuya.

Seeing that her body stiffened, she laughed and cried at the same time.

"That's great!" Miko exclaimed happily.

Seeing her mother talking to Shen Jue, Jianzi felt fortunate that Shen Jue was human.

"Miko," said Touko Yotsuya, Miko's mother, "thankfully you're alright."

"Mr. Shen Jue found you unconscious not far from home and took you home."

"Otherwise, Tokyo at night can be very dangerous."

Seeing this, Zi wiped away her tears and said through gritted teeth, "I am so grateful to Mr. Shen Jue."

Shen Jue smiled slightly, but did not feel embarrassed.

Miko's mother ignored the odd tone in Miko's voice; she was worried about her daughter's health, but was drawn to the large stack of yen placed on the table in front of her.

After Shen Jue explained that he was a tourist traveling in Japan and hoped to stay at Miko's house for a while, he offered a large sum of yen.

Seeing this, the mother's wariness towards Shen Jue decreased by half.

For a single mother raising two children, the large sum of money that Shen Jue offered for lodging was a lifesaver, relieving her of her immediate financial crisis.

"Jianzi, Mr. Shen Jue is a very good person." Jianzi's father, who was also sitting in the living room with a newspaper in his hand, said to Jianzi, "You must get along well with Mr. Shen Jue."

Shen Jue nodded, indicating to Jian Zi that she should listen to her father.

Jianzi's father died in a car accident a year ago.

Now, Miko's father, who lives in Miko's house, has actually become a bound spirit. In addition to Miko's father, there are also companion guardian spirits in Miko's house with hideous and terrifying appearances.

A guardian spirit that is the reincarnation of a dog that the Miko family used to keep after its death; it can also be called a dog god in Japan.

Whether it is a bound spirit or a guardian spirit, their essence is ghosts and evil spirits. However, after the death of the child's father, he chose to continue to stay in the house in the form of a spirit because of his deep love for his family and his belief in protecting them.

Seeing his son, the father transformed into an invisible guardian, silently accompanying his wife, daughter, and son, continuing the responsibilities he had in life in another way.

Unfortunately, apart from Miko, who was born with the ability to see spirits, the rest of the family cannot see Miko's father or the guardian spirit of the dog god.

Seeing that Zi's mother was preparing a late-night snack, Shen Jue gestured for Zi to sit in the living room.

Looking at Shen Jue, who was surrounded by a halo and a halo, Jian Zi felt even safer after learning that Shen Jue was human.

"Only powerful gods and Buddhas could possess such a form, right?" With this thought in mind, little stars appeared in Miko's eyes.

"Jianzi, your eyes are special," Shen Jue said. "I have a way to stop those things from bothering you."

Seeing the stars in her eyes shine even brighter, she pleaded excitedly with Shen Jue, "Please help me, Mr. Shen Jue!"

Shen Jue smiled slightly and said, "No problem, but I'd like you to accompany me to explore Tokyo."

After saying that, Shen Jue reached into his pocket and touched a bag-shaped magical artifact. He had prepared a big surprise for the evil spirits in Tokyo.
