Many people burst into tears, fearing their future fate.

There were also many people who were shocked when they saw the appearance of the ghost boy.

"Gin!" Vermouth, Furuya Rei, Mizunashi Rena, and Akai Shuichi all exclaimed in surprise.

According to their intelligence, this man should have been dead.

How come he suddenly became a cadre of the masquerade ball?

Li Lin had no idea what these people were thinking, but his original idea was to expose the ghost boy in his original appearance in public.

Not only is he now strong enough and does not need to hide it, but more importantly, he wants Li Lin the ghost boy to lure out the members of the Black Organization.

It's time to eradicate this organization.

Li Lin was also confident that he only needed to capture one or two important cadres to find the headquarters of the Black Organization.

Volume 2: A Trip to Kyoto

Chapter.144 Book signing event (3/5)

“There are indeed very few people.”

Tomoya Aki rode his bicycle to the book signing event of the beautiful girl writer Kasumi Shiko.

Looking at the empty venue except for the two staff members at the door, he couldn't help but sigh.

Because today is the day when the government and the Masquerade sign a treaty, the whole of Tokyo seems to have stopped.

People were afraid of attacks from monsters, so most of them stayed indoors, and the city's traffic was semi-paralyzed.

Even the Shinkansen was stopped to save fiscal expenditure.

"I hope that teacher Kasumi Shiko won't be hit by this situation." As an avid otaku, Aki Tomoya likes "Love Metronome" written by Kasumi Shiko very much and studied it day and night.

Anticipating that sales at this book signing event would be poor due to the masquerade incident, in order to prevent Kasumi Shiko from getting hurt, he gave up writing.

Even though he was afraid of monsters, he rode his bicycle to the book signing event to encourage Kasumi Shiko to continue writing.

After parking his bicycle, Akitomo suddenly saw a figure walking past him.

The figure was like a ghost. No sound could be heard when he walked. He walked leisurely towards the book signing event.

"Is he here to buy books too?" An Yilun couldn't help but wonder.

……

There is no one at all.

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the clock and found that the autograph session was already halfway through.

And during this time, no one came.

There were only two staff members in charge of the venue.

"What bad luck! An important autograph session has to fall on this day."

"Yeah, it looks like there won't be any guests coming until the end of today."

"Hey, if it weren't for the money, I wouldn't want to come out today. God knows if I'll encounter a monster."

"Money is secondary. The most important thing is that the company provides meals. Prices have increased tenfold in the past two days. It costs 5 yen for me to buy a loaf of bread."

"That's right, those unscrupulous businessmen only know how to make money from disasters."

The two staff members at the door were talking in low voices.

Listening to their complaints, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked very lonely.

She found that ever since she first encountered the monster, nothing had been going well for her.

Be it love or career.

Every time, I encounter an unimaginable blow at the right time.

It's the same this time.

Because the sales of the book did not meet market expectations, it was facing the possibility of being cut in half.

Today's book signing event is the last attempt before the series is cancelled. If things go well, there will still be a chance to continue serializing.

But now it seems that this attempt has failed.

Kasumigaoka Utaha held her chin in her hand, feeling disheartened.

At this moment, a hand reached out, took out a book from the table, and put it on the table with a "bang".

The slight noise woke up Kasumigaoka Utaha. She looked up and found a very familiar figure sitting in front of her.

"I like this book very much." Li Lin pointed to the book he had just taken out from the table and chuckled.

He looked up and saw that Kasumigaoka Utaha was still wearing the headband he had given her.

"You're lying. This volume just went on sale today." Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Li Lin, a hint of joy reflected in her beautiful sunset eyes.

It turns out that he still remembers me. Kasumigaoka Utaha felt her nose sore. She never thought that she would see Li Lin again, and at her own autograph session.

"I have read all the contents before this volume, and have been paying attention to the sequel of this book." Li Lin looked directly at Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"I think the heroine of this book is too miserable. I always want to save her and change her miserable fate."

Pfft!Pfft!

Kasumigaoka Utaha could feel the sound of her heart beating in her chest, and her heartbeat accelerated because of Li Lin's words and gaze.

She lifted the black hair by her ears and smiled unconfidently, "Am I still qualified to be saved now?"

Although she was very touched that Li Lin still remembered her, she knew very well that Li Lin and she were from two different worlds. Did she really have a chance to step into another world that did not belong to her?

"Be more confident, you are the heroine." Li Lin encouraged.

Apart from a certain rich woman, Kasumigaoka Utaha was the first woman he met and fell in love with after he traveled to this world.

"It's really fate that Mr. Hero always appears in time when the heroine is stuck in a quagmire." Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed and said to Li Lin, "You win."

Even though she had always been the one being persecuted, when Li Lin came to her again, Kasumigaoka Utaha found that she couldn't get angry no matter what.

So she gave in. Reason and pride told her that this was wrong, but her excitement made it impossible for her to refuse.

……

Putting aside his doubts, Tomoya Aki walked into the book signing room under the surprised gazes of the staff.

I saw Li Lin and Kasumigaoka Utaha chatting and laughing.

A sudden sense of emptiness arose in my heart, and the feeling of having lost something forever lingered in my mind again.

strangeness.

Without letting this emotion bother him, Akitomo quickly put it behind him.

He walked up to Kasumigaoka Utaha and said excitedly:

"You must be Ms. Kasumi Shiko, the author of Love Metronome. I really like this book and was so moved that I cried several times..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha put on a professional fake smile. If it was five minutes ago, she would definitely be touched to hear someone praising and approving of her work like this.

But now, she just felt that the person in front of her was too noisy and disturbed her reunion with Li Lin.

An Yilun showed no sign of stopping and became more and more excited as he spoke, trying to make some moves.

"Stop, don't harass my girlfriend." Li Lin grabbed Aki Tomoya's wrist.

"Oh, sorry, I was too excited." Akitomo came to his senses and apologized quickly.

He also knew how much trouble his behavior would cause to others.

When she heard Li Lin calling her his girlfriend, Kasumigaoka Utaha's cheeks turned red, but she did not refute.

Outside the door, two staff members heard the noise and walked in.

Seeing that Aki Tomoya was stopped, he breathed a sigh of relief and just warned Aki Tomoya not to do it again.

"Sorry, I was so rude just now. By the way, are you the second-year senior Kasumigaoka Utaha?" At this time, Aki Tomoya remembered that he seemed to have met Kasumigaoka Utaha not long ago.

"Yes, you are also a student of Toyosaki, right?" Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned. She felt a little uncomfortable that her true identity was known by others.

"Ah, the last time I saw senior and Eriri walking together..." Aki Tomoya explained.

Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly realized that when she went to find Eriri, she had indeed met the boy in front of her.

He immediately looked at Tomoya Aki with some pity in his eyes.

She remembered that the person in front of her seemed to be Eriri's childhood sweetheart.

Based on her understanding of Li Lin, after so many days, Ying Lili had already been deceived by Li Lin and became a person who could be manipulated by him.

Completely unaware of Kasumigaoka Utaha's dark thoughts, Amaki Tomoya glanced at Li Lin and suddenly realized that this person seemed familiar.

"You are... Li Lin, the exorcist from Daxia!"

Chapter.145 Call Eriri over (4/5)

An Yilun also looked at Li Lin in surprise.

Because of the information bombardment in the past two days, even he remembered Li Lin, an exorcist.

"Li Lin? The exorcist from Daxia."

"Yes, it is really Lord Li Lin."

Hearing Aki Tomoya's call, the two staff members who had not left turned to look at Li Lin, and were surprised to find that the handsome man in front of them was the exorcist that the government had been promoting in the past two days.

"Yes, I am right." Li Lin's face was calm and he did not deny it.

Appropriately revealing her identity can help Kasumigaoka Utaha achieve better development and also protect her from avoiding certain unspoken rules.

He also has a plan. When he might need help from a publishing house, he would contact people in this field in advance, which can be regarded as preparation before the plan.

Hearing Li Lin's admission, the two staff members were excited and hurried forward to pray for Li Lin's protection.

Li Lin thought about it and did not refuse. He took out two amulets from his arms.

"Well, can you give me one too?" An Yilun said embarrassedly.

Even otakus are afraid of monsters.

"Here." Li Lin blinked and gave him a mysterious smile.

He didn't get his things for free.

Without any idea of ​​what price he would have to pay to take the amulet, Tomoya Aki happily took the amulet.

"Senior Kasumiaki, please don't give up writing. I will always support you." Aki Tomoya also realized that Li Lin and Kasumigaoka Utaha had a close relationship, and he felt embarrassed to stay here.

After buying a book and leaving Kasumi Shiko's signature on it, she left quickly.

"Could you please wait outside the door? I have something I want to talk to Shiyu alone." Li Lin said to the two staff members.

"No problem, leave it to us. We won't let any irrelevant personnel in." The two staff members made the decision.

Seeing how Li Lin addressed Kasumigaoka Utaha in an intimate way, how could they not know the relationship between the two?

They immediately walked out of the room and stood upright in front of the door, like two door gods.

"It seems that Miss Xia Zhiqiu's book doesn't need to be cut off."

"Yes, with such a powerful exorcist boyfriend, even if the quality of the book itself is not good, the publisher will bite the bullet and publish it in order to gain the favor of the exorcist."

"You're wrong. Think about it. If we hadn't been working here today, would we have been able to meet Lord Li Lin? As long as you buy a book and attend a book signing event, you'll have a chance to meet Li Lin. Even if it's a useless piece of waste paper, countless people will rush to buy it."

The door to the room was closed, but the discussions of the staff outside could still be heard faintly.

Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned and couldn't be happy at all.

"Don't pay attention to what they say. If you feel unwilling, just write a work that no one can find fault with." Li Lin said softly.

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded, but before she could think about it, she suddenly felt her feet lighten and her whole body was lifted up.

And his original seat was taken by Li Lin.

"What are you doing?" she snorted.
