Why is my anime art style so weird?

"That's why I hate dealing with smart people."

Ryosuke Nomura helplessly rubbed the back of his head, but accidentally rubbed off a piece of scalp with hair attached.

"There's just one thing I don't understand."

Xu Ming looked Nomura Ryosuke up and down, his eyes full of doubt.

"You must be a vengeful spirit, right? Why would you keep a living person like him as a pet?"

He gestured towards Xiao Xikuan with his lip.

Ryosuke Nomura suddenly burst into laughter, then his face turned incredibly gloomy, his eyes filled with resentment.

"You don't actually think that I'm helping him by keeping him alive, do you?"

I will never forgive him for what he did to me!

So I imprisoned him here, endlessly repeating the scene from that day, so that he would forever remain in the nightmare of that day!

After he dies, I will extract his soul and continue to 'treat' him!

Xu Ming fell silent.

Even people with a positive outlook are highly likely to turn to the dark side when betrayed by someone they trust.

"Now that you've discovered my secret, you may as well die."

As Nomura Ryosuke spoke, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

Xu Ming raised his phone first and pointed it at Ryosuke Nomura.

Unexpectedly, this cunning guy sank into the wall the moment he raised his phone.

"Heh heh! You think I didn't see the power of your phone?"

The empty room was filled with Ryosuke Nomura's strange laughter.

Xu Ming's heart sank. It seemed that this guy had been watching him since he entered the building.

He probably already saw the scene of him using his phone to eliminate the floating girl.

That's why he had been playing games with me before.

As expected of a 'weird' persona embodied by a homeless man, it is full of the baseness and cunning of a petty person.

"Erina, can you force it out?"

Xu Ming said to Erina beside him.

"My lord, please let me try."

As Erina with purple hair spoke, she raised her palm, and a bright arc of electricity shot out from her palm and disappeared into the ground.

Oh!

The electric arc instantly spread out, turning into tiny electric snakes that leaped and darted across the ground.

"Well!"

A muffled groan could be faintly heard.

Xu Ming's eyes lit up immediately.

This guy is injured!

But after a while, Ryosuke Nomura seemed to realize how powerful they were and did not show up.

What a cunning fellow!

Xu Ming cursed inwardly.

The battle suddenly reached a stalemate.

Xu Ming glanced at his phone.

Even in the dark, the runes on the phone case still shimmered with a pale blue light.

Faced with such a persistent and cunning enemy, Xu Ming was at a loss and could only try out his newly acquired ability.

So he quickly brought up the shooting interface, then activated his spiritual vision, locked the phone camera on the location where a large amount of negative energy was gathered, and then pressed and held the shutter button.

One second, two seconds, three seconds!

A focused, powerful strike!

Click!

A purple-gold radiance surged from the phone's camera lens like a tide, overflowing the room and illuminating the surrounding night sky.

From a distance, it looked like a dazzling firework in the night.

"what!"

Faintly, Xu Ming heard a scream.

After a long while, the light gradually faded away.

There was no sound around; it seemed that Ryosuke Nomura had been eliminated.

Whoosh!

The concrete wall collapsed with a crash, and a foul stench of corpses rushed out from inside.

Xu Ming quickly covered his mouth and nose.

He glanced at Konishi Hiroshi, who was still kneeling on the ground, and briefly sent the matter to Kato Megumi, instructing her to send someone over to handle the aftermath.

Then Xu Ming led Erina to a higher floor.

Upon reaching the 8th floor, the staircase broke again.

Xu Ming and Erina had no choice but to re-enter the building and begin heading towards the main building.

The 8th floor seems to have been built in a more hasty manner, with each room simply separated by cement walls, and some places even lacking railings.

Hehe~!

Suddenly, a girl's soft laughter echoed through the empty building.

Xu Ming felt as if a hand was gently stroking his cheek, bringing a touch of coolness.

He couldn't help but shudder.

Just then, Xu Ming suddenly saw a white shadow flash by in front of him.

Xu Ming quickly raised the crowbar in his hand, fully alert.

There was nothing unusual about the surroundings, except for the wind blowing through the building, making a strange whooshing sound.

Chapter 232 The Lighted Room

"Erina, did you see something?"

Xu Ming turned his head and asked, somewhat uneasy.

"I saw nothing, my lord."

Erina gently shook her head.

With a hint of doubt, Xu Ming continued walking forward.

Was it just his oversensitivity that caused his illusion?

The white figure did not reappear once we reached the area of ​​the main building.

Xu Ming checked and found that the stairs to the 8th floor of the main building were intact, so he quickly led Erina up to the next floor.

Hehe~!

The girl's soft laughter rang out again, this time coming from below the stairs.

Xu Ming subconsciously craned his neck to look down, and several flights of stairs away, a white shadow vanished in an instant!

Xu Ming's expression immediately turned serious; this time he was absolutely certain he hadn't misread it.

It seems that something strange has its eye on them again.

For the next leg of the journey, Xu Ming became extra cautious.

But after climbing to the 11th floor, the staircase broke, and the white figure never appeared again.

Xu Ming had no choice but to put it aside for the time being.

However, after this delay, the phone's charging count has recovered once, and it's almost fully charged for the second time.

As Xu Ming traversed the 11th floor, he discovered many traces of life.

Some rooms were littered with used empty wine bottles, aluminum cans, moldy bedding, and other household items.

Xu Ming even found a broken light bulb in one of the rooms.

It seems that Ryosuke Nomura was not lying at least in this respect; they did indeed live near the 11th floor for a period of time.

"My lord, there's light over there!"

Erina, who had been quietly following behind Xu Ming, suddenly pointed to the annex on the right and spoke up to remind him.

Xu Ming quickly looked in that direction and saw that a room on the 12th floor of the annex on the right was lit up!

Xu Ming couldn't help but recall the scene described by Ryosuke Nomura.

He quickly used telepathy to contact Haruyuki Arita.

"Chunxue, do you see that room with the light on? Go and investigate to see what's going on."

"Ok."

Haruyuki Arita flew in a semi-circular arc in mid-air, heading towards the 12th floor.

Strange things happened.

He had just approached the room when the lights suddenly went out!

'Huh? What's going on?!'

Haruyuki Arita's slightly flustered voice came through the telepathic message.

'Go back and scout that room, but be careful!'
