"How is it? Are you still used to it?"
After walking up to the demon sword user, Kamiki Ichiro handed a bottle of mineral water to Kuki Gen who had stopped to rest, and asked casually.
Kuki Gen, this is the name of the young man who can wield the demon sword. Although his current strength is far inferior to that of the demonized Tsuda Osamu, he has shown signs of gradually getting stronger.
"Of course I'm used to it. I feel like I'm getting stronger all the time!" When he said this, Kuki Gen's eyes seemed to be sparkling, and Kamiki Ichiro felt a little ashamed.
He felt guilty about tricking a little kid.
However, as soon as this sense of guilt emerged, he immediately extinguished it.
"Practice well. The upper limit of this sword is ridiculously high. You are just getting started." Kamiki Ichiro patted Kukigen's shoulder and encouraged him like a kind elder. "If demons appear in the world again, it will depend on you."
"Yes, sir!"
"Well, come on!"
After giving a casual word of encouragement, Ichiro Kamiki handed the training ground over to Gen Kuki again, and he also went to work.
He couldn't just watch Jiu Guiyuan training and fighting there all day long. Although he really wanted to, his superiors wouldn't allow him to just slack off like that.
No matter what, he is the leader of the Sixth Class in name only. How can a leader do nothing all day? Even if he wants to pretend, he has to pretend to be busy.
"Alas, life~"
After casually sighing about life, Ichiro Kamiki slowly walked back to his office. He raised his eyelids and saw that Fuka Sukatsu, whose work attitude was extremely serious and did not seem like that of an Japanese, was not there. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh, by the way, he is not an islander, no wonder he loves work so much. No, he is not a human being at all. How can a human love work so much?
Isn’t work just about slacking off from the time you get to work until the time you get off work? This is a skill that every working person must have.
"Aha~ Let's start today's...work." Ichiro Kamiki sat down on his office chair and slumped for a while before picking up the documents in front of him.
The amount of things he has to do is not too much, but not too little either. As the head of the Sixth Investigation Section, which specializes in investigating the supernatural, his task is to accurately find supernatural clues among the numerous supernatural incidents.
Filter out the fakes, leaving the half-truths to investigate, then sift through them again until you find the real paranormal clues.
Of course, although he is the section chief, he also needs to investigate on site in person, and then use his rich experience to judge whether the supernatural events are true or false.
It's quite troublesome anyway.
"Ah~ I really want to take a vacation, I really want to go to the beach..." After looking at the information for a while, Ichiro Kamiki could not hide his lazy nature and collapsed on the office chair again.
Back then, he was not like this when he was the head of the first class. Although he was lazy sometimes, he was definitely not as lazy as he is now.
It’s all because of these fake supernatural events. They have worn out his energy and spirit. Ten out of ten supernatural events are fake. Who can stand this!
"Bang~"
"Section Chief, another supernatural incident has occurred!"
I almost forgot, this person can bear it, no, the other party is not a human, so no one can bear it.
The moment he heard the sound of the doorknob turning, Ichiro Kamiki quickly went from slumped down to sitting upright, then frowned and looked thoughtfully at the documents on the table.
Just as he got into position, the familiar sound of a door being pushed open was accompanied by a cold female voice, as if urging him to go to the scene to investigate quickly.
"Didn't I tell you to knock on the door before working? You came in suddenly and interrupted my train of thought!" Kamiki Ichiro decided to take the initiative. Although he was slacking off, as long as no one saw him, he was working seriously!
However, Fuka Sukatsu didn't care about Ichiro Kamiki's questioning at all. Instead, she walked up to Ichiro Kamiki and put down the documents in her hand.
Kamiki Ichiro was about to scold again, but when he looked into those serious and cold eyes, he couldn't help but swallow the words he had prepared.
Then, with a bored look on her face, she picked up the information placed in front of him and read it sentence by sentence. Since the information was delivered by her personally, there must be important issues that needed his review.
"Let me see, a monster appeared in Kyoto? Ha, a monster only appeared now. I thought they were the first to collapse. I didn't expect it to take so long to show any signs."
Shusong Fenghua did not respond. She was not an islander, so she naturally did not understand the conflict between Kanto and Kansai.
"Hmm... the possibility of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, the search for the inheritance of the Onmyoji, the excavation of the Seimei Shrine, they are only starting to look now? What is the countermeasures department thinking there?"
After a while, after reading the information, Kamiki Ichiro rubbed his temples and closed his eyes to think.
"It seems that we really need to make a trip." After thinking about it, Ichiro Kamiki suddenly opened his eyes. Because the first-level administrative regions of the island country have autonomy, officials in each local administrative region have their own selfish desires.
Especially to the Kansai region, which was at odds with them, they had to go there regardless of whether it was true or not.
Chapter 352 Two Days Later
Although Ichiro Kamiki has decided to go to Kyoto, he can't just leave like that. If he wants to go there to investigate, he needs to report it.
And you can't go there alone. Although there is no definite news yet, it is very likely that the monsters in Kyoto are real.
In this case, they also need their own strength. No one dares to take the appearance of monsters lightly.
With this in mind, Ichiro Kamiki specifically noted in his report that armed forces were needed, and it would be best to directly mobilize the Ground Self-Defense Force. Although it was within the city, who could be sure that the monsters would not cause massive destruction, so necessary precautions had to be prepared.
As for whether it is necessary to bring Jiu Guiyuan over, there is no need to do that. We have worked hard for several months to find an adapter for the demon sword, so there cannot be any mistakes.
Moreover, Jiu Guiyuan has only had the demon sword for a short time and cannot exert much power, so the most important thing is to keep it and train well.
Just as Ichiro Kamiki was preparing to go to Kyoto, the local government in Kyoto had already begun preparing a temporary relocation plan.
Although I don’t know whether their guess is correct, just in case, we must have a way out.
Even a cunning rabbit knows to have three burrows, let alone they are human beings.
The local government officials in Kyoto moved to neighboring Osaka Prefecture the day after the monster appeared, and then gave orders to the person in charge who remained in Kyoto through remote communication.
Those who could leave had already left, and those who couldn't leave had to stay temporarily to prevent possible new problems.
If possible, the person in charge who stayed in Kyoto also wanted to leave, but his level did not allow him to do as he pleased, so he could only swallow his sadness and silently do the tasks assigned to him by his superiors.
In this atmosphere, even the most dull-witted person gradually realized that the Kyoto area seemed to be filled with an ominous aura.
Apart from government officials, the second group to evacuate were naturally the upper class. Compared with ordinary people, their sources of information were broader and more accurate. Through their own channels, they knew what major events would definitely happen in the next period of time.
I don’t know what the big deal is, but it’s definitely not a good thing.
Therefore, before ordinary people could react, most of the upper class people in Kyoto, the thousand-year-old capital, had already fled.
As for those ordinary people who are still working hard, although they have made some discoveries, they cannot leave just for the sake of their lives.
The boss didn't even tell you to take a day off, so you dare not come in without permission? Do you still want to work?
In this strange atmosphere, although a large number of monster videos appeared in Kyoto, it still maintained its operation.
When the undercurrent surges in the sea, the sea surface remains calm.
Kyoto City, Kamigyo Ward.
"I have a feeling that something really bad is going to happen next." Tange Oto muttered to herself as she walked silently home on the street after school.
But the sky was still clear and the number of pedestrians on the road did not decrease, as if she was really worrying too much.
"Forget it, let's go back and ask Xiao Feng."
Although such a monster appeared in front of people, Tange Oto's mood was not affected much, because those monsters did not harm humans, and there were no posts on the Internet about people being injured by monsters.
Thinking of this, Tange Oton quickened her pace, and the ponytail behind her head swung back and forth.
More than ten minutes later, Tange Oto returned home and went straight upstairs. Xiaofeng usually took a nap in her room or lay on the windowsill to bask in the sun.
"Xiao Feng, I have a question for you!"
The moment she opened the door, Tange Oto spoke loudly. Since her parents had not come back when she got out of school, there was no need to speak in a low voice.
However, the Phoenix Fire, which used to fly in front of her, disappeared this time.
"Xiao Feng?" After looking around and finding no trace of Phoenix Fire, Danxia Yin became a little anxious. He hurriedly dropped his schoolbag and started looking for it in the room.
But after searching the room carefully, she only found a piece of homework paper with a message from Fenghuanghuo on it.
"I'll go out for a while and come back in the evening."
Looking at the message on the note, Tange Oton breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know what had happened, since he could leave a message, there shouldn't be any problem. However, he would definitely ask about it in the evening.
Tange Oon felt relieved and no longer thought about the matter, and night fell quietly as time passed.
Dinner, at the table.
After a busy day, the family enjoyed the rare warm time of the day, but except for Tange Oto, her parents all looked worried.
Seeing the negative emotions almost overflowing from her parents, Tange Oto was sensible and didn't ask any questions, because she knew that even if she asked, her parents would just brush her off by saying it was nothing.
After a while, after finishing dinner, Tange Yin took the initiative to clean up the dishes, and then returned to his room again to see if Fenghuanghuo had returned.
But there was still no sign of Phoenix Fire, so she had no choice but to read while waiting.
Although she was already anxious, she could do nothing but pray silently, hoping that Phoenix Fire would be safe.
"Da da~"
I don't know how much time had passed, but Tange Oton had dozed off with her head propped up at the desk, but the sudden noise woke her up.
Danxia Yin started and propped himself up, then raised his head suddenly, and happened to meet the eyes of Fenghuang Huo who was standing on the windowsill.
Phoenix Fire tilted his head and blinked, and asked curiously: "Xiaoyin, why are you still not sleeping so late?"
"I was worried about you, but you only left a vague message saying you would be back in the evening, but now I don't even know what time it is!"
"Sorry." Hearing this, Phoenix Fire apologized sincerely, and then explained: "I just went out to confirm something, so I was delayed for a while."
"what's up?"
"Regarding the sudden appearance of monsters." Phoenix Fire came to Tange Oto while speaking, "Kyoto is no longer safe for you humans. You and your parents should leave quickly. There will be a monster parade here soon."
"A parade of monsters?"
"According to your explanation, it is the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, and it will be in two days from now, during the time between dusk and nightfall."
"The yin energy in this area will be greatly enhanced by then, which will be of no benefit to you humans. If possible, you'd better leave as soon as possible."
"What about you?" After listening to Fenghuanghuo's explanation, Tange Oto immediately thought of Fenghuanghuo, who was a monster. And according to Fenghuanghuo herself, it was the twelfth monster ranked in the One Hundred Demons Night Parade. Does that mean that Fenghuanghuo will also go to the One Hundred Demons Night Parade?
"Me? I will follow you. I don't want to go to the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. Fortunately, I am not a big monster, so I was able to escape danger."
"Oh, I wonder how many monsters will parade this time." Looking at the sky outside the window that seemed to have changed a little, Fenghuanghuo said to Tangxia Yin or to himself.
Chapter 353 Silent Prelude
Although Phoenix Fire said that the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons would not occur until dusk two days later, when Tange Oon woke up the next day, he found that the sky outside had turned dark.
The dark clouds in the sky seemed like endless waves, pressing heavily on the earth. Looking at the dark clouds that did not allow any light to penetrate, everyone felt suffocated.
Not only that, the cold wind also swept through the sky at a low altitude, whipping the faces of pedestrians on the road, as if a series of ruthless whips were warning them.
The abnormal weather was telling them all the time that something big was about to happen.
Some smart people have already started to flee out of the city. Even though the government has not issued a notice yet, the unusual situation still allows them to guess part of the reason.
Those who had not yet guessed what was going on, seeing some people suddenly start to leave Kyoto, also followed suit and left the city.
They are not smart, but they have the skill to follow the crowd.
In a short period of time, a large number of Kyoto people flocked to the other four prefectures near Kyoto, with Shiga and Osaka having the largest influx, followed by Hyogo and Fukui.
Local hotels hurriedly took advantage of the situation to raise their prices, but even so, there was still a shortage of available accommodation.
But even so, it is impossible for a city with a population of more than 1.5 million to have everyone escape successfully in just one day.
In this frantic escape, only one in five people managed to escape.
Moreover, this crazy escape has also brought about a series of problems. Once the flow of people increases, traffic jams will inevitably occur, and road rage problems caused by traffic jams will also begin to emerge.
All kinds of vehicles on the road are closely packed together, like a blood clot blocking a blood vessel, completely blocking the blood circulation in the city.
By the time the Kyoto government officials who had long since left Kyoto reacted, the city of Kyoto had already fallen into panic. Out of herd mentality and with no clear idea of what was going on, most people fled together.
Except for those lower-class people who cannot survive without their jobs, they are still working. They may not die if they leave Kyoto, but they will definitely die if they leave their jobs.
Upon seeing this situation, the Kyoto government hastily issued an official notice and began to evacuate the crowd in the city center in an orderly manner. They didn't want to do this, but now they had no choice but to make up for the loss, otherwise they would just have to wait for their collapse.
They were clearly still searching for the inheritance of Onmyoji, or other temple inheritances, but before they found it, this group of civilians panicked first and started to flee without caring about anything else.
This caught them off guard, and the changing weather seemed to indicate that the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons was about to begin.
In this regard, they just wanted to curse. This Night Parade of Hundred Demons came unexpectedly, and there was nothing special about these days. It was neither Ghost Festival nor any other festival.
The only clue was the large number of monsters that appeared a few days ago, which was totally unreasonable.
However, monsters are inherently unreasonable, so it doesn't seem so difficult to accept if you think about it this way.
With the official announcement and the large number of personnel dispatched, escape became easier.
