A comic book, but a librarian

"Tsk, do people in Tokyo really manage these evil cults? How come even those who raise ghosts are out there?"

Uesugi Cheng held in his hand a bloody umbilical cord that no one else could see. The little devil, who was supposed to eat the whole family, didn't last more than three seconds in his hand, leaving behind only this umbilical cord made of spiritual power and resentment as the only proof of its existence.

"Forget it. Since you guys won't deal with it anyway, don't blame me for handling it in a way that doesn't quite match your ideas."

The belt on Uesugi Cheng's hand started to burn, and he hailed a taxi.

Chapter 230: A law-abiding and good person.

"What happened to those two people?"

"Huh? Wait...what's going on?"

When a group of people were reasoning about the floor plan of the house, Yotsuya Miko, who noticed something was wrong, suddenly spoke up. Logically speaking, the couple had not suffered much damage at all, but now they were silent. Why?

"Don't touch him, he's already dead. I knew that something bad would happen if that bastard died first!!!"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked madly at the two pieces of meat that were almost corpses. He guessed that he would have to go to the police station to eat some pork chop rice.

Before the police arrived, Hikigaya Hachiman took advantage of the last bit of time and started bombarding Uesugi Sumire with chat software.

"Didn't you promise us to abide by the law? Why did you let us go to the police station to eat pork chop rice first?"

"Isn't this quite law-abiding? Look, I didn't touch them. Relax, they're still alive. You have nothing to do with them. The police won't make things difficult for you."

Hikigaya Hachiman's young mind was a little shocked by the adults. When he thought about it, it was indeed true that at most Kawasaki Saki pushed the person against the wall. According to Hikigaya Hachiman's perception, although these two people still had vital signs, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

"what do you mean?"

"What do you mean? I don't understand. I'm still on my way. We can talk later if there's anything else."

After saying this, Uesugi Sumiya's avatar turned gray and he went offline.

"How is it? What did that Uesugi guy say?"

Saki Kawasaki was a little nervous. After all, she was the only one among the group who had actually taken action. If they really were to eat pork chop rice, she would be the most likely to get into trouble.

"He's still alive, isn't he? In any case, it's likely that he suddenly fell ill and died in the hospital, and then there will be no further news. Don't tell me... this is really the style of the police."

Hikigaya Hachiman had a blank expression on his face. He glanced at Kaji Akino, who was sleeping soundly with her clothes covering her, and suddenly felt that this was not a bad idea. Then he turned around and saw that Yukinoshita Yukino still seemed to have a blank expression on her face.

"Have you figured out how to tell the police?"

"?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked over as if she was looking at a fool. She thought for a moment and then spoke.

"What's there to say? Uesugi-san has already made most of the arrangements, right? Just follow the instructions and ask them to send the child to the hospital."

As the sound of the police car got closer, Yukinoshita Yukino's expression remained calm.

……

"What do you think, Inspector Inudo?"

Uesugi Cheng was walking on the road while talking on the phone. He did not get off the bus directly at the destination, but got off the bus some distance in advance and walked the last part of the way.

"What can we do? Just deal with it the old way. We don't want to get involved in this kind of mess anyway. Besides, if it really doesn't work, just ask your brother to say hello. I think the Superintendent of Police above will be very happy too."

"Oh, my brother's words are effective even in the eyes of the Superintendent of Police?"

"It may not work, but I think he definitely won't mind doing a favor. After all, if this guy who looks like a cultist dies, then he's dead. But if two dead people do a favor for the Uesugi family, it's a sure win."

Inudo Ranko was holding a cigarette and talking about the officialdom. Next to her, Jun'ya Fuukai and Soichiro Kogure listened to Inudo Ranko's unscrupulous comments and just turned their heads to check if there was any recording equipment in their office.

"Then I'll handle it here?"

"Isn't it the same thing? After you've dealt with them, just let us clean up the mess, Uesugi-kun. Even if we tell you not to do it, what's the point? You have a thousand ways to get rid of them without any evidence, so why not let us do you a favor and help you clean up the mess?"

Inudo Ranko crushed the cigarette and did not hang up the phone with Uesugi Sumire. Instead, she took out another mobile phone, dialed the number and hung up immediately. In the end, she just sent a message.

"The police will be dispatched in half an hour to handle the scene."

Without even looking at the reply from the other end, she put down her phone. Although she was only a small police inspector, the special status of the Police History Compilation Office gave her far more connections and power than an ordinary police inspector.

"Is half an hour enough? If not, I can ask them to drive slower on the road. Anyway, you just need to deal with the people. There is no need for either of them to stay, a bunch of idiots who volunteered to be food for evil spirits and a bloodthirsty evil spirit, so please."

"Okay, just remember to serve me good food when I go back to the police station to eat."

Uesugi Cheng hung up the phone with a half smile. The building in front of him looked very old on the outside, but both the doors and windows were completely intact. They were even covered with one-way cellophane to prevent outsiders from peeping. It looked very... ridiculous.

Uesugi Cheng yawned, and the fog gradually spread and enveloped the building. On this clear and crisp autumn afternoon, when the sun was shining brightly, countless dark fogs wrapped the building. Himegami Sakura appeared in the fog, bowed to him, and then disappeared into the fog.

"Tsk...why don't you want to try out new technology?"

Uesugi Cheng knocked lightly on the glass window, as if he was thinking about something. In the end, he decided not to go in and make it more difficult for the police.

The sun's rays were bright and hot, and Uesugi Cheng stood at the gate of the building, motionless.

……

"Hahaha……"

Go, must go, the middle-aged man stumbled forward, panting. He knew he had to leave here immediately, abandon his followers and everything the mysterious man had given him. The beam of light appeared again. Not long ago, one of the evil spirit's tentacles was burned to ashes. Feelings of pain and madness were transmitted to his brain. It wanted to eat, and turned all the living things in the building into sacrifices to appease its anger.

The middle-aged man agreed to it almost immediately, without considering the next task or development at all. He had to escape from here immediately, while the evil spirits were feasting, and while the unknown monster had not found this place yet, he had to leave immediately.

The middle-aged man desperately left the building through the secret passage. The exit of the secret passage led to another place where there was a car fully fueled with gas and a box of cash. He thought that as long as he escaped, he could enjoy himself for a few days, and if he died, he would die.

"It's already... too late."

He found himself standing at the door of that familiar building. The gray mist seemed to be flowing to welcome him. His eyes were gradually covered by the light. The intense pain was like a flame burning in his body. It was a pain that went straight to his soul.

“Isn’t this just right?”

At the end of his life, the cult leader remembered many things, but fell down before he could say anything.

Chapter 231: Of course the free pork chop rice is delicious.

"Hey, the food from the Metropolitan Police Department is still so delicious. Thank you for the hospitality."

Sitting in the interrogation room, Uesugi Sumiko happily ate the pork chop rice in front of him. The detective sitting opposite him was indeed an acquaintance of his, although he had only met him once.

A wry smile appeared on Kento Hirota's lips. He put down the pen in his hand and could not put on any serious expression. In the end, he just leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath.

"Speaking of which, Master Uesugi, do you know what has become of that place?"

"You probably know. A bunch of dead people. What else is there? Haven't you seen evil spirits kill people?"

Uesugi Cheng took a sip of juice. That’s why people say the treatment in Tokyo is really good. The pork chop rice is served with juice.

"You are really calm. My little apprentice is vomiting again and said he wants to see a psychiatrist."

Guangtian wiped the sweat from his forehead. To be honest, he was not willing to let this master sit in the interrogation room, but the procedures had to be followed. However, the video and audio recordings in the interrogation room were all turned off, so it was a good opportunity to build relationship and ask some little secrets.

"Isn't that normal? After all, the evil spirit eats people slowly and carefully. It's just a pile of rotten human tissue and flesh. Your apprentice still needs to practice."

"I think it's unlikely that police officers like us will encounter this kind of situation a second time in our lifetime... Not to mention the criminal police, several forensic doctors vomited, and it was as if their worldviews had collapsed."

Kento Hirota did not lie. They responded immediately after receiving the call from Uesugi Sumire. There were still more than twenty minutes before the time Inudo Ranko ordered. Uesugi Sumire was sitting casually at the door of the closed building, with a middle-aged man who looked like he was dead lying next to him.

Most of the police officers actually breathed a sigh of relief the moment they recognized Uesugi Sumire. Although they had never seen how powerful Uesugi Sumire was, it was Uesugi Sumire who solved the last horrific skinning murder case. At least they had personally experienced that the atmosphere at the crime scene became much better after Uesugi Sumire came out of the crime scene. They had 100% trust in this master.

"There's not a single person alive in there. Clean it up carefully. By the way, I didn't do anything."

Uesugi Sumiko was escorted to the side by two policemen, and then they first collected the body of the dead man lying on the ground. The man's death was very strange, without any external injuries on his body. He died with a nosebleed, and there was a distorted expression on his face. It seemed that he had suffered great fear before death.

Then the criminal police and forensic doctors did something that they deeply regretted. They pushed open the door of the building without any protection.

……

"Don't worry, I've already dealt with that thing, nothing will happen."

Uesugi Cheng casually took a tissue placed in front of him and wiped his mouth, looking very comfortable sitting in the chair in the interrogation room.

"I know, but what I want to know is, have you found the people behind them? That thing is not something that an ordinary cult that cheats money can make... Why can't Tokyo be a little more peaceful?"

Inudo Ranko put the cigarette into the ashtray and looked helplessly at the almost full ashtray and Uesugi Sumire opposite her. She looked like a corporate slave who was about to die suddenly.

"I don't know. I guess the other party is an old hand, and he cleaned up the traces very well. Besides, even if there are clues, I can't see them. I'm not familiar with the local people. Even if there are clues, I probably have ignored them."

Uesugi Sumire suddenly clapped his hands, causing Inudo Ranko to tremble.

"By the way, how about you make me a list of suspicious persons, and I'll visit them one by one, maybe I can recognize them."

"That's enough, that's enough. Just don't know anything. There's no such list. I will tell the temple and the mediums about these things and ask them to help investigate. When it comes to things like this, the local bosses know the most."

Inudo Ranko sighed. The clues on Uesugi Sumire's side were cut off. As for Uesugi Sumire's proposal, she didn't want to see more than a dozen major cases in Tokyo one day, with the death toll in each case exceeding three digits.

"Uesugi-san, you've already finished your meal here and taken notes. Do you want to sit in the Metropolitan Police Department for a while? Let's go to the reception room."

Inudo Ranko felt that if she continued sitting there, her blood pressure might rise uncontrollably, so she decided to just pass this guy on to her colleague.

"Oh, I won't stay...By the way, how are my classmates doing?"

"Don't worry, everything will be fine after a few questions. There's no need to ask more about this kind of thing. We've already dealt with enough. If you want to find them, go to the reception room. They said they'll wait for you to come out."

"Thanks, I'll go find them."

Uesugi Sumire walked out of the interrogation room by himself. Several policemen took a look at the high school boy who walked out of the interrogation room in a swagger, and immediately turned their heads away as if they saw nothing.

"You... you're treating us to pork chop rice, right? No wonder you said you'd treat us to a meal after today's matter is resolved. So you're treating us to this."

Hikigaya Hachiman was holding a bowl of pork cutlet rice and looked extremely furious.

"Well, I'm so poor that I'll go bankrupt if I invite so many people to dinner. I'm definitely living off the land. Isn't the pork chop lunch box at the Metropolitan Police Department delicious?"

“It tastes okay, but I don’t want to eat it a second time.”

Yotsuya Miko, who was standing next to her, was eating like her good friend Yurikawa Hana, she was extremely hungry today. Although the policemen were very friendly, the food was indeed served a little slowly.

"By the way, let me tell you one thing. We have already notified your family members to pick you up. But don't worry, we just said that you accidentally witnessed the incident and came here to take a statement."

Inudo Ranko appeared at the right time and gave the group a piece of important news before leaving again.

"See you!!!"

Yotsuya Miko looked at the pork chop rice in her hand in panic. Finally, she could only put down the lunch box and wipe her mouth twice. Then she was hugged by her mother with a terrified look on her face.

"Brother, I'm here to pick you up. By the way, mom and dad don't know about this, so why don't you thank Komachi? Also, how did you get involved in something so dangerous?"

Hikigaya Komachi seemed to be more mature than her brother, and she knocked Hikigaya Hachiman on the head without hesitation.

"What about Kawasaki?"

Uesugi Sumire looked around and saw that Kawasaki Saki was not taking notes here.

"Oh, she went to the hospital to take care of the girl first. After all, it seems that all her relatives have died. We are afraid that something might happen if a girl with a weak desire to live stays in the hospital alone."

"Okay, I'll take a walk."

"Wait, where are you going?"

Uesugi Sumire heard the familiar voice and stopped obediently, and in his heart he greeted the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department which was not very kind at all.

Chapter 232: Help from Uesugi Nobuyuki.

"Good job, young man. You've recovered for three days and now you're eating pork chop rice. I wonder where you came from. You've bravely entered the cult's lair in Tokyo and wiped it out. Do you want me to make a movie for you?"

Uesugi Nobuyuki, Uesugi Sumiya's dear brother, looked at his younger brother with a subtle look. Although he didn't know what his younger brother had done specifically, just by the subtle tone of the police on the other end of the phone when they mentioned the name Uesugi Sumiya, he knew that the matter must be serious. However, when he really came to the Metropolitan Police Department and heard the details, he couldn't help but feel dizzy.

"There's no need for a movie. Besides, I didn't do anything. I just took a walk..."

"You walked around and everyone died? Do you believe me? I'll ask your sister to find someone from the Metropolitan Police Department to learn about your glorious achievements?"

Uesugi Shin directly brought up Uesugi Sumiko's sister. Although she couldn't see it normally, in fact, both brothers knew that Uesugi Saki had a strong desire to protect Uesugi Sumiko. If Uesugi Saki knew these things...

"Don't! Don't! Big brother! Tell me I don't have to go out to play until next year. It's just a few people who died. It's not that serious."

Uesugi Sumire immediately tried to grab his brother's cell phone to prevent him from actually making the call, and they got into Uesugi Nobuyuki's car while playing and joking all the way. This time, Uesugi Nobuyuki drove alone and did not bring a driver.

"Just tell me how many people you killed, so your brother can be mentally prepared. If something really happens, it will be easier for your sister to rescue you."

Uesugi Nobuyuki took a deep breath and prepared himself for the bad news that was about to come. No matter what, his younger brother must have killed someone this time. He had to exonerate his younger brother as soon as possible and find out what the situation was.

"No, how could I kill anyone? You know me well, brother."
