[March 7th: I have a feeling... Jing is playing with something really new and exciting...]

[Danzhu: I didn't understand it! But I was deeply shocked!]

[Hiratsuka Shizuka: Shock +1! It's truly unexpected that Hanako exists in Miko's world. Could there be other urban legends like this?]

[Yin Nai: This might not work out~]

[White Night Demon: I suddenly thought of a question. Speaking of restrooms, the slogan in men's restrooms is: "One small step forward, one giant leap for civilization." What about women's restrooms? We keep seeing similar slogans. If a slogan absolutely has to be put up in a women's restroom, what would be a good choice?]

[Kasumigaoka Utaha: Simple—"Squat back a bit, don't show your heels!"]

Everyone: "..." 6! (Laughing and crying emoji)

Amidst everyone's laughter and conversation, Gu Jing, along with Hua Zi, cleared away some evil spirits and, using the same method, captured an eight-foot-tall adult.

Learning from Gu Jing that he collected these strange creatures that had never harmed anyone in order to recruit them into the organization, Black Cat and the others, who were impressed by the display, exclaimed "666" (a Chinese internet slang for "awesome").

And...this eight-foot-tall man looks really lewd!

PS: Thank you 'huu7' for the flowers and votes!

Chapter 402 Farusan: ? ? ? Seno! If you've got the guts, talk to me on your own! (doge emoji)

That afternoon, as the sun was setting, Gu Jing, who was clearing away evil spirits, stopped in a park and sat down on a bench to rest.

An eight-foot-tall adult, invisible to ordinary people, stood behind him, massaging his shoulders. Little Flower Girl also observantly massaged his legs. Under Gu Jing's hands, the two strange creatures rolled up in order to get the reward!

Compared to her disheveled appearance with her hair down and wearing a tattered white dress, Miss Bachi seemed more demure after changing into a brand-new cheongsam. Although she had a somewhat naive air about her, she would blush and show a shy expression when she met Gu Jing's gaze. Moreover, strangely enough, her soft fingers had a cool, icy touch.

Viewers of the live stream reacted differently to this scene. Some were eager to try it out, while others were disgusted by this capitalist behavior. With everyone expressing their opinions, the live stream was quite entertaining.

[Gu Jing: Speaking of which, after this afternoon's encounter, I have gained a better understanding of the supernatural. The supernatural phenomena that appear in this world can be roughly divided into four categories: ghosts, evil spirits and vengeful spirits, urban legends, and false gods.]

Ghosts are usually the souls of people who have just died, while evil spirits and vengeful spirits are spirits that harbor malice towards humans.

What's particularly interesting are urban legends. These aren't evolved from evil spirits, but rather individuals born from fear. They are driven by the principle that what you hold dear will eventually come back to you. However, these urban legends are also bound by the constraints of legend itself.

For example, in urban legends, Ya-chi is invulnerable to swords and spears, possesses immense strength, is ever-changing, and can ignore all physical attacks of level 25.

However, her fear of salt was also widely known, which, in a sense, made her both famous and disillusioned.

[Qilin: No wonder Yotsuya Miko had a whole bowl of salt in her bedroom when she saw a ghost at home, so that's why!]

[Silver Wolf: However, the method was wrong and all the effort was in vain. The eight-foot-tall creature was affected by the salt, but the evil spirit was not. On the contrary, the mischievous evil spirit didn't take the salt seriously at all, and even sneaked into her bed with a grin, calling her "Mom!" (Smirking emoji)]

[Ruri Gokou: Pfft~ I shouldn't be laughing at this time, but I'm sorry, Miko-san, I just can't help it whenever I think of that scene...]

[He Xi: It does have a somewhat comical feel to it, but what about the false god? What is a false god? Could it be the Three Fox Shrine from the story?]

Yotsuya Miko: "..." (Beautiful girl's eye twitches.jpg)

Compared to her previous fears, Yotsuya Miko, who now possesses a copy of the diary, is now completely safe. Although her ability to see spirits still allows her to see them clearly, these spirits have not approached her in the past two days. Even when she tries to get close to them, they seem to completely ignore her and leave on their own.

It was already after school, and noticing that the park where Gu Jing was was not far from her, Yotsuya Miko wanted to thank him in person.

Then, while walking down the street, I saw another exposé about someone being crawled into their bed by an evil spirit calling for their mother. How tragic! Another version of myself!

In the live stream, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the clouds, creating a sunset glow that illuminated Gu's handsome face as he took a small sip of the milk beside him.

Gu Jing did not answer directly, but instead pointed the live broadcast camera towards the sky. The sunset on the horizon was very beautiful and refreshing.

As the live stream camera panned upwards through the clouds, the thick clouds acted like a barrier. Below the clouds lay the twilight, while above, the view opened up dramatically, like a bright sunny day, with the white clouds reflecting dazzling light.

Even more surprisingly, high in the sky, people saw a huge whale, made of blue, transparent water, with a massive body, swimming above the clouds!

[March 7th: Holy crap! This is a bit ridiculous, isn't it? Why are there whales in the sky? Is this giant whale the false god that Ah Jing was talking about?]

[Xiangling: But if my body is all water, I probably can't eat, right?]

[Xingbao: Not necessarily. For example, deep-fried milk can be eaten hot. (winking emoji)]

[Paimon: Great idea! *drooling*]

[Yingmei: You guys need to be a little more rational! This is weird! Eating everything will only hurt you!]

[Xingbao: But I'm thinking, why should it be that monsters can eat people, but people can't eat monsters? It doesn't make sense, does it?]

[Spider: That's right! Those scary evil spirits are one thing, they don't even look appetizing, but this giant whale is different! I don't know if it tastes good, but one bite and I'll know, right? I'm willing to be the one to test its poison for everyone! And I'll let it know who's at the top of the food chain!!!]

[Qingque: This time, we've really turned the tables! *laughing and crying emoji*]

Watching the giant whale swaying above the clouds in the live stream, and seeing the foodies in the chat eagerly making their comments, the people who were still in awe were suddenly struck by a joke and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, Gu Jing also confirmed a piece of information through this giant whale, or rather, he had already guessed something when he saw Hanako and Hachiko, and now he has completely confirmed it through this giant whale—just like the scene he saw in the dimensional space before, there is indeed a phenomenon of mutual fusion between worlds.

Just like how there was no Yasakani and Hanako in the story of Miko, but now there are, and there's also the giant whale from Weathering With You.

From the small world to the big world, and from the big world to the microcosm, mutual integration is also a way for the world to grow stronger.

******

Just as Gu Jing was thinking about this, Yotsuya Miko, who was running at full speed, appeared in his field of vision. The slime, which was neither too big nor too small, swayed back and forth with her running body, immediately attracting Gu Jing's attention.

However, seeing that she was panting heavily, Gu Jing kindly told her to sit down and rest, and even handed her a bottle of water.

Although the presence of Hachiko and Hanako standing beside Gu Jing made her somewhat afraid, the fact that the bottle cap had already been unscrewed warmed Yotsuya Miko's heart. After resting for a while, she explained her purpose and expressed her gratitude to Gu Jing:

"My mom and I are very grateful for your help."

"If it's alright, I'd also like to invite you to my home for dinner."

"so..."

Are you free now?

The high school girl with long, straight black hair also has very bright golden eyes, but her facial expressions are not particularly rich when she speaks.

Firstly, because her emotions don't fluctuate much, and secondly, because the evil spirit made her used to having a blank expression.

Gu Jing smiled slightly at her after listening: "I appreciate Jianzi's thanks, but let's leave the meal for next time. I already have plans for today. Besides that, have you noticed something rather unusual, Jianzi? It seems that evil spirits are concentrated in this city."

"——!!!"

Upon hearing this, Yotsuya Miko's eyes widened involuntarily, and her scalp tingled. All these people were concentrated in this city? Were they targeting her?

Seeing her terrified expression, Gu Jing knew she had misunderstood. He smiled and shook his head, then immediately explained the situation—the evil spirits appearing in this city were not targeting her, but rather that this city was the core area of ​​this world.

Outside the core area, there was no rampant evil spirits, which, in a sense, is also a privilege afforded to the main character.

However... the current situation is somewhat complicated. Having realized the truth about the merging of the worlds, Gu Jing also opened his mind to observe for a while.

The result was that this world was linked to multiple worlds. At first, it was like a colorful patchwork of pieces, each independent of the others. But as time went by, they would influence each other and eventually merge into one world.

After listening attentively, Yotsuya Miko, who was completely bewildered, was also deeply intrigued by the situation, and the viewers in the live stream also became very interested in it.

[He Xi: As expected! Worlds can indeed merge! But there's still one problem. Logically speaking, each world has a huge population. If they merge, where will all those people go?]

[Black Tower: Is it possible... that the parts outside the core area are actually unimportant to the world? Like data optimization, only the beneficial parts are kept, while the useless parts are thrown into the junkyard?]

Theresa: Isn't that terrifying? That's life on an entire planet! Isn't there any way to stop it?

[Gu Jing: Uh... I apologize for not being clear earlier. Strictly speaking, world fusion is indeed like data optimization, but the key is to extract the core parts and merge them together. The remaining parts will form a parallel world without a core area, so there's no need to worry about the safety of these people.]

[March 7th: That really scared me! Next time, tell me earlier!]

[Silver Wolf: So, which specific worlds have been merged?]

[Gu Jing: There aren't many at the moment. I just discovered *Weathering With You*, and those that will be merged soon include *My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU*, *Saekano*, *Oreimo*, *Gabriel DropOut*, *Miss Dragon*, *Food Wars!*, *Kaguya-sama: Love Is War*, *Bunny Girl Senpai*, *Kakegurui*, *Jashin-chan: Fall in Love with Me*, and *Detective Conan*.]

[Hiratsuka Shizuka: O_o Isn't that enough?]

[Starbaby: It seems like all these everyday worlds are about to merge together.]

Gu Jing: That's right. For me, the biggest advantage is that I won't have to travel through different worlds one by one to see all my wives in the same area. The downside is that if this integration isn't guided properly, it can lead to some unpleasant situations.

For example, take "Detective Conan." The timeline in this world becomes a mess after Shinichi Kudo shrinks. While it grants a form of immortality, the constant shifts between different holidays—one day it's Wednesday, the next it's the weekend, Valentine's Day is today, and another Valentine's Day is next week—are enough to make the time chaos seem unbelievable until you do, which is truly terrifying.

Everyone: "..." Indeed! (Laughing and crying emoji)

But to be honest, it wasn't just Gu Jing who was looking forward to this. People in their own world who could only see Gu Jing through live streams before also blushed and couldn't help but feel excited.

As for the timeline being messed up? Shinichi Kudo hasn't shrunk yet! We can do that! We can do anything about it!

[Kasumigaoka Utaha: So, why does Shinichi Kudo shrinking cause timeline confusion? Because he's a washing machine! (Funny.jpg)]

[Falushan: ??? Seno! If you're so tough, talk to me on the main page! (doge emoji)]

PS: The picture shows Vermouth.

Chapter 403 Black Tower: Five social insurances and one housing fund, right? I understand!

As dusk fell, Gu Jing, who was leaning back on a bench in the park with his arms outstretched, explained the situation of the world merging in the live broadcast room and looked at Yotsuya Miko beside him.

Meeting her gaze, Gu Jing couldn't help but chuckle at the girl's deadpan expression, and then he began to explain the state of the world to her with great interest:

Materialism holds that matter existed before consciousness, and that spirit is a product and reflection of matter.

"Idealism, on the other hand, believes that the mind is the foundation that determines everything. To put it bluntly, it is: I think, therefore I can."

"But if the real world is based on materialism."

"So--"

"For psionicists."

"Idealism is the key to defeating the bizarre."

"For example, the evil spirit I eliminated this afternoon."

Even without using any other abilities.

"I can still smash evil spirits with my fists."

"Why is that? Because my fist is imbued with the will to kill the evil spirit. I want to, therefore I can."

Uh... Yotsuya Miko was a little confused. It wasn't that she didn't understand what Gu Jing was trying to say; she understood that the key to eliminating evil spirits was personal willpower. This kind of idealistic power had a special attack bonus against evil spirits!

Even if every hit isn't true damage, it can at least help a newcomer with awakened willpower to transform from 0 to 1!

What left Yotsuya Miko somewhat bewildered was that she didn't quite understand why Gu Jing had suddenly brought this up with her. Could it be...? Thinking of a logical possibility, Miko felt a little embarrassed, and her heart was pounding.
