"really."
Keigo Kurusu chuckled self-deprecatingly, “But we are a special department after all, so of course we have to be more efficient.”
The department that handles paranormal events is inefficient, and who knows how many more people will lose their lives.
Japan has more than 130 million deaths every year, of which only about 300 die from murder, about 2 die from suicide, about 4 die from accidents, about 100 million die from old age or illness, and the remaining 30 are generally classified as "other".
Of course, this does not mean that everyone who dies from paranormal events will be categorized as "other".
It depends on how the assistant supervisor in charge of handling the matter tries to cover it up, so the nominal cause of death can vary.
But precisely because of this, no one knows exactly how many people die from paranormal events each year.
Because the government will not publish the data, or even specifically collect statistics on it.
But according to Keigo Raisu's estimate, at least 50,000 people die from paranormal events every year!
This was all under the premise that Onmyoji and sorcerers were constantly working to exorcise the cursed spirits. Without them, who knows how many more people would have died!
With them working in such a department, how could their efficiency not be high?
If anyone dares to neglect their duties, the death toll will double in no time!
Kaguya Shinomiya and Nagisa Kashiwagi didn't think too much about it and looked down at the investigation results in their diaries.
It's actually very simple.
Twenty-five years ago, a woman named Saito Mio suffered extensive burns all over her body when her house caught fire.
Her boyfriend abandoned her while she was receiving treatment in the hospital.
She then chose to take revenge on society, going to the livehouse and setting it on fire, burning all the more than one hundred people present to death. She escaped because she was hiding in the preparation room, and even hung the victims' bodies one by one from the ceiling afterward before finally hanging herself.
The cause, process, and result were thoroughly investigated 25 years ago.
However, for some unknown reason, all the police officers involved in the case died mysteriously, and the case was thus shelved.
Because no one dealt with the crime scene, it gradually evolved into a haunted place, and even developed a protective barrier.
It is precisely because of the barrier that 'Window' cannot even sense the presence of the livehouse with its magical power. That is why this place has been able to exist to this day, with people accidentally entering the barrier every year while carrying musical instruments, and ultimately never being able to leave.
If someone hadn't accidentally broken the barrier and exorcised the level 1 cursed spirit that was maintaining it, many more people would probably have died here.
Kaguya Shinomiya asked in a cold voice:
"Is someone deliberately cultivating cursed spirits?"
"Yes."
Keigo Raisu nodded solemnly. "According to the investigation results, that's the case. Furthermore, this person was already a high-ranking officer in the police force at the time, at least an inspector. Otherwise, even if he could kill the officers investigating the case, he wouldn't be able to cover it up."
"Twenty-five years have passed, and due to the lack of information, we are afraid it will be difficult to find out the truth of what happened back then."
There's one more thing he didn't mention: since the other party was already a police inspector twenty-five years ago, he must be at least a superintendent of police, or even a superintendent of police, now.
Such a person will not only encounter numerous obstacles during the investigation process, but even if the truth is uncovered, it will be difficult to bring him down if no substantial evidence is found.
Moreover, this person may not be the culprit; there may be someone of a higher level behind him, perhaps even someone from the world of sorcery.
But there's no point in talking about these things; they can't handle them anyway. Talking about them would only add to their troubles, which is why Keigo Raisu chose to keep it a secret.
However, even if he doesn't say it, it doesn't mean that others won't understand.
"Nagisa."
Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly asked, "I remember Kojima's father was the Superintendent General of Police, right?"
"That's right."
Kashiwagi Nagisa smiled faintly, "Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I last visited. Kaguya, would you like to come along?"
Keigo Kurusu hesitated, as if to say something but then stopped. "Does the Superintendent General of Police think he can just come here whenever he wants? Are you some kind of rich young ladies?"
Mingming clicked his tongue.
Children from wealthy families are truly extraordinary.
She, a top-level sorcerer, worked herself to the bone for over a decade to earn just over 40 billion, while someone else could easily find a practice company worth tens of billions and could meet the Superintendent General of Police whenever they wanted.
She witnessed the vicissitudes of life once again.
They are born with not only talent, but also family background.
But then again, who exactly exorcised that level 1 cursed spirit?
The opponent's strength is at least equivalent to a level 1 sorcerer, but definitely not a sorcerer; otherwise, there would be no need for them to be sneaking around. Similarly, the opponent is not an Onmyoji either; otherwise, it wouldn't be their turn to handle the aftermath.
But he's not a curse master either; curse masters don't do good deeds anonymously.
The problem is, where in this world are there so many wild sorcerers?

Yoshikage Kira opened the door, and the room was brightly lit.
It wasn't that he forgot to turn off the lights before he left, but that someone was there.
A girl dressed in a purple lace dress, cosplaying as Shizuku Hoshino, was standing at the entrance to greet him.
The girl's cheeks flushed, and her voice was slightly distorted with shyness and nervousness:
"Welcome back, Master."
Kira Yoshikage looked at the girl's small hands, which were clasped together in nervousness, and his expression became somewhat subtle:
"Yumiko, what are you doing here?"
"Hey!"
The girl took a step back, her mind blank. How did they recognize her?
"Eh~ I thought I could fool Kira-kun~"
The blonde girl, whose hair was dyed a light pinkish hue at the ends, opened the bathroom door and muttered to herself:
"She was wearing makeup properly, how did they recognize her?"
“There are still some differences.” Kira Yoshikage’s gaze swept over the two girls’ small hands.
Not only are the size and texture of everyone's hands different, but compared to Yumiko, Haimeng's hands are more delicate.
Of course, this is not to say that Yumiko's hands are rough, but only relatively speaking.
If I had to pinpoint a difference, it would probably be between 9.2 and 9.3.
Yoshikage Kira closed the door and asked:
"So, why are you here?"
Miura Yumiko's mind went blank, and she turned to Kitagawa Kaimu for help:
What should we do now?
The original plan wasn't for her to impersonate Kitagawa Kaimu cosplaying as Shizuku Kuroe; they should have gotten straight to the point. That way, even if they didn't get any soup, they could still be friends—in Japanese, it's called "to mo da chi."
But ah.
What should I do if I've been found out so easily?!
"Why are you looking at me? Just go for it according to the original plan!"
Kitagawa Kaimu glared at Miura Yumiko with exasperation, "The opportunity is right in front of you."
Don't blame me if you can't handle it yourself!
“Ji…Ji…”
Yumiko Miura's pretty face flushed red, and her cherry lips moved a few times, "It's...it's..."
Low emotional intelligence: speaking so softly that only the speaker can hear it.
High emotional intelligence: Get started immediately.
Unable to bear it any longer, Haimeng gently embraced Kira Yoshikage from behind with her soft, fragrant body, and whispered softly:
"Kira-kun, let me give you a massage."
She held Kira Yoshikage in one hand and Miura Yumiko in the other, helping her hold Kira Yoshikage's hand, her eyes showing a hint of disappointment.
It's not that your sisters don't want to help you, it's just that you're too weak-willed.
My best friend didn't want to see you waste this opportunity, so she took the initiative herself. Don't blame me for not being a good friend!
Honestly, I swore I'd be the first to arrive, but it seems I'll have to do it myself to be able to make a living even in poverty.
As for Yumiko.
While intently doing her needlework, Kitagawa Kaimu muttered to herself:
"If it weren't for the fact that you're my best friend, I wouldn't help you. Someone like you only deserves to lick my and Kira-kun's leftovers!"
Without her, Yumiko wouldn't even have been able to catch a hot meal!
Chapter 133 To Mo Da Chi, this is the true essence of the game!
Q: What is the most important thing in a game?
A: It's fun.
What is most important in multiplayer games?
A: Great.
The most perfect ending, of course, is one that makes everyone feel satisfied.
In single-player games, this is easily achieved. But in competitive games, it's difficult to satisfy everyone. After all, even the winners might feel frustrated, and the losers are even less likely to feel satisfied.
So, is there a game that can make both the winning and losing players happy?
The answer is yes.
The winners may feel great, but the losers may feel great even more often than the winners.
This is a win-win-win situation.
