You say this is a love game?

Why is it always this age group?

Because children of this age are full of passion and do not need a reason to save the world. They can do many things that adults cannot do just out of their inner sense of justice.

In the eyes of many exorcists, exorcism is actually a high-risk and high-reward job. Even if they know that someone is doing free exorcism, they will only curse inwardly for violating industry rules. When they inquire about their age, they will shake their heads and sigh that they have not been beaten enough by society.

However, even though she knew what her peers said about her, Miyamizu Inaba ignored them.

All she was thinking about was actually one thing.

She, Gong Shui Inaha, wants to wipe out all the evil spirits that harm people.

Even if the girl is being beaten by society today, her ideals will not change.

"Hey, little rabbit, before you repeat your great ideal, can you please earn some money first? We are broke and can hardly afford to eat."

Shuten's usual lazy tone emerged in the girl's mind.

"Don't you think about it? That family last time was so grateful. Can't you just take the money? I haven't had a good drink in days~"

That money is for them to take care of the elderly!

Even if that family wanted to thank her, she absolutely could not accept it!

"Miyamizu?"

"Miyamizu!"

The girl looked like she was in a daze.

Mizutani Makoto tried to shout, but his tone was not serious at all and he maintained a gentle attitude.

"Oh, oh, yes! I'm here, Senpai!"

Miyamizu Inawa braked her bicycle suddenly, turned her head and saw Mizutani Makoto stopped in front of the mailbox, then looked again and found that she had ridden far away... She immediately stopped the bicycle and rushed to Mizutani Makoto with the newspaper bag.

"Pay more attention when you're working."

"Yes!"

"And since you're riding a bicycle, you should be even more careful. Look at how early in the morning, the people who exercise are usually elderly grandpas and grandmas. If you accidentally hit them, you'll know how serious the consequences will be."

"Yes!"

The girl nodded nervously, stuffed the newspaper into the mailbox under Mizutani Makoto's gaze, and then stood there like a wooden stick, waiting for the next instruction.

Mizutani Makoto laughed dumbly: "Let's go, what are you still standing there for?"

A perfect day starts with meeting a clumsy newcomer in the workplace.

In other words, he is in a good mood and has a better personality.

Otherwise, if this girl met an old man with a bad temper, she would be despised to no end.

Work smarter, girl!

But then I thought, how much does this part-time job pay?

It’s already pretty good to be able to deliver newspapers to people’s doorsteps on time!

"Oh hehe~"

"Shut up, it's all your fault!"

The laughter that popped up in her mind made Miyamizu Inaba blush immediately.

Don't be angry, don't be angry...

Shuten has been mocking her for so long, she has long been immune to it...

"You've learned the Ah Q spirit quite well."

Shuten slowly floated out, and from a short distance away, his eyes fell on Mizutani Makoto.

She seemed to have noticed something and showed an interested expression, but she did not explain it to the quarrelsome girl next to her. Instead, she put her arm around her shoulder and continued to interfere with her work.

"I thought you were joking at first, but I didn't expect you to actually find a job."

"Are you kidding me? You don't even get enough sleep and you get up so early every day just to earn such a small amount of money?"

"How about we take on some high-paying private jobs?"

Shuten's words echoed in her ears, but Miyamizu Inaba ignored them.

She wasn't an exorcist just for the money.

It is precisely this principle that has put her in a somewhat embarrassing situation now.

Miyamizu Inaba cannot go to register.

As mentioned before, exorcists are divided into official exorcists and folk exorcists. Folk exorcists are also qualified to accept official tasks, but the prerequisite is that they have to go to the official to register first. They have to explain which school they belong to, or any adventures they have had. Only then can they successfully register as an exorcist and be qualified to accept tasks.

if not?

Why should we give you the task? Why should we give you the bonus?

God knows whether you are a human or a ghost after you take off your skin!

They always have to make sure whether you are trustworthy, or whether you are an exorcist or a ghost pretending to be a human - if you look back at history, some strange systems have their historical origins. Don't underestimate the wisdom of our ancestors.

At the same time, this is also a very clever approach.

This type of exorcist who can accept tasks from the official is essentially an official exorcist, but he does not enjoy preferential treatment and does not need to obey orders.

Based on the above rules, even folk exorcists were divided into two factions.

For example, Miyamizu Inaba is an unregistered folk exorcist.

A pure, wild exorcist who cannot see the light.

The reason is Shuten.

Due to certain experiences in the past, Miyamizu Inaba can no longer be considered a purebred human being... This is the source of her rapid progress, and it is also the reason that blocks her "legitimacy". She and Shuten have become one, and while giving her the extraordinary power of an exorcist, it also makes her a complete "unstable factor" in the eyes of the authorities.

She becomes an official exorcist?

Shuten slowly told her something similar - exorcists like her have appeared in history, but the endings are difficult to judge. In any case, it is not recommended to show up in front of the official, let alone try to explain the big monster in the body to them, otherwise it will easily cause trouble.

At this point, Miyamizu Inaba's "civil servant career" was completely cut off.

Since she couldn't pass the civil service exam, she could only take private jobs, but what kind of private jobs could an exorcist take?

Rich businessmen and families, not everyone has access to the circle of exorcists, but if they really encounter trouble, they will eventually embark on the path of exorcism commissions with the guidance of someone.

This point is very obvious when referring to the events at Yejian High School. One is a rising family engaged in business and politics, and the other is a wealthy merchant family. Both families were not originally in the circle, but after experiencing this incident, someone immediately led them on the way. Later, it was said that they came into contact with another family, but it is quite strange that there was no follow-up.

Anyway, these powerful upper-class people usually send their exorcism commissions to the authorities.

Well, the only commissions a wild and untrustworthy exorcist like Miyamizu Inaba can receive are actually those from ordinary families who are desperate to find a cure for their illnesses.

No, that shouldn't even be considered a commission.

Ordinary people, when they are desperate, will go directly to the monks in the temple to seek medical treatment. Like Miyamizu Inaba, she acts independently in most cases when carrying out the commission, and pushes forward the exorcism commission despite the distrust and even fear of the victims' families, and only then will she receive their praise later.

In fact, it is possible to earn money from ordinary people, and some half-baked exorcists do so.

But this girl has never thought about making money by "exorcising ghosts" since her debut, especially this kind of private commission from ordinary people, which makes it easier for her to think of her past self... She is only fifteen years old, and it happens to be the age when she can endure all the hardships of the world because of her passion, so she has fallen to this point.

"You still need to expand your network, little rabbit."

"Why don't you find more people to advertise in the future?"

Facing Shuten's repeated persuasion, the girl stubbornly shook her head: "No."

She simply ignored Shuten's existence.

Miyamizu Inaba doesn't care about material enjoyment, nor does she need so much money... It's enough for her to be able to make a living and support her to continue slaying demons and eliminating evil.

So, with the introduction of an acquaintance, I finally came to this newspaper to work.

Instead of talking to the mean big monster, Miyamizu Inaba turned her head and focused her gaze on Mizutani Makoto.

Think of something fun instead.

It was also her first time doing a part-time job. It was too difficult for a junior high school student to do a part-time job. It took her a long time to find a job delivering newspapers. It felt quite novel.

She looked left and right, and her eyes fell on the work badge on Mizutani Makoto's chest.

"Mizutani-senpai's face seems a little rounder than on his work ID?"

"The food has been good recently."

Thinking of Satori Yoshiko at home, Mizutani Makoto couldn't help but feel emotional. His taste has been nurtured by Satori Yoshiko lately - mainly because he also thinks fried food is great, but unfortunately Satori Yoshiko always talks about "balanced nutrition" and is always too conservative when it comes to fried food preparation.

On the street, Mizutani Makoto was pushing his bicycle and said, "Tomorrow, you'll be walking this road by yourself."

"Hey, what about you, Senior?"

"I picked up the bucket and ran away."

Mizutani Makoto pointed at himself and said, "It's almost time for me to focus on my studies, so I plan to quit some unnecessary part-time jobs."

"Oh……"

Miyamizu Inaba nodded, and as she smelled the fragrance wafting from the street, she suddenly became serious.

"Then Mizutani-senpai, the work is done, right? Then wait a moment!"

Mizutani Makoto looked at the girl's back in surprise. After about two or three minutes, he saw her jogging towards him with a plastic bag and handed it to him solemnly.

"?"

"what is this?"

Gong Shui Inaba said seriously: "This is a thank you gift!"

"This shop just opened recently! They sell Chinese breakfast... fried dough sticks, steamed buns, and pancakes. Has anyone here paid attention to these before? They should be quite popular."

In Japan, breakfast is extremely scarce. Apart from brunch in American coffee shops and rice balls in convenience stores, it is really hard to find other options. Coincidentally, due to the emotional dispute of a female celebrity, she was linked to the network of fried dough sticks, which led to a surge in the popularity of Chinese breakfast and indirectly led to changes in breakfast.

Among all Chinese breakfasts, steamed buns are undoubtedly the most popular.

Although it is easy for Japanese bun masters to come up with "bun fillings" that will cause the blood pressure of elderly Chinese to soar after seeing them, this is also another aspect of their popularity.

"I don't know what senior likes, so I bought my favorite custard buns. Let's try it! They're delicious!"

Miyamizu Inaba follows a simple value concept.

Mizutani Makoto helped her, so she should thank him!

This is what her mother taught her.

Mizutani Makoto wanted to refuse at first, but then he thought it was no big deal, so he smiled and nodded while holding the plastic bag. Two custard buns were just right, and he could give one to Yoshiko when he got home.

But this girl in front of me...should I say she is clumsy, or should I say she is simple and straightforward?

He waved his hand:

"Then I will respectfully obey your command. See you again if we are destined to meet again in the future."

"Uh-huh!"

They parted at the newspaper office, and Mizutani Makoto left without hesitation. Miyami Inawa, left alone, emerged from the office and, like a magician, pulled out a plastic bag of buns. While they were still warm, she stuffed a custard bun into her mouth.

Up ahead, amidst the trembling of the tram whizzing past, the girl stared into the distance in a trance.

When you bite into the hot bun, you will instantly feel the sweetness and warmth.

The girl drank another sip of soy milk, and the small light brown mole in her throat slid up and down as she swallowed.

"What are you thinking about?"

Shuten laughed.

Miyamizu Inaba said nothing, just thought silently.

She checked all the recent news about Night Light City and realized that the city had already been in turmoil.

At Yejian High School, two people went missing, and supernatural legends are common.

Many strange things have happened recently at Hydrangea Girls' College where she is. Not only did Fujii Sa, a freshman in the high school department, commit suicide by lying on the railway tracks, but also Kamei Reimi, who is also a freshman, mysteriously disappeared a few days ago. It was not until yesterday that someone fished out a female corpse from the river that they realized she had drowned in the water for several days.

Chaos.

Ever since the case in April where a psychopathic killer tortured and dismembered a high school girl, the entire Night Light City seemed to be in chaos.

The doubts in Miyamizu Inaba's heart grew to an extreme level:
