I'm drawing an action-packed anime within a depressing one!

Not long after I transferred the email, I received an email from Tian Xiaoxi.

[Tian Xiaoxi: Thank you for the three thousand! Haha! You have great taste!]

Don't let my current poverty fool you! I got into the comics department of Jinghua University with the highest score in my major! Even though I'm currently a high school student, it's because I'm temporarily taking a break to pay tuition!

I'm cheaper than them! We're definitely a perfect match, right?

"..."

"This guy actually graduated from Peking University."

He Zhou could sense Tian Xiaoxi's anxiety when she sent the email.

Choosing partners?

The main problem is that I didn't have any other choice!

...

Just as get out of class was about to end, I heard a commotion throughout the entire teaching building.

"Is it going to get out of control? Really?"

"real!"

"I saw it with my own eyes. This time, when Vice Captain Li Muyun led a team of members into the old campus, they were attacked. One of the team members who was separated from the group had his entire hand cut off! Even his body..."

The speaker lowered his voice: "Li Ce, a student in the experimental class, also said that last time he saw... the eyes of the demons in the old campus over there opened. They might have awakened!"

The other students, unaware of the situation at the old campus, looked on in horror.

Many students immediately wanted to ask the school for leave, and an atmosphere of fear was spreading.

Just because they can accept death doesn't mean they can die a horrible death!

He Zhou felt a little strange.

That's not right.

Although there was indeed a situation last time, he confirmed that the principal could suppress it in a short period of time.

What attacked them?

...

"Didn't you say it was safe last time?"

The students hurried out, discussing in small groups, "What do we do now?"

"do not know."

"Where is the safest place in our Eighth District right now?"

"It should be Mingde Garden."

Other students hesitated, saying, "Recently, the probability of abnormal situations occurring in other areas has been increasing. Sometimes I see Captain Song and his men making several trips throughout the district."

When unusual tasks arise, they are the only ones who can handle them, and they are constantly running around like headless chickens.

"Find other night patrolmen?"

"Are you stupid? There are only two teams in this area. Team Two went on a mission with the principal, so now only Captain Song's team is left!"

The team lost countless members at the old campus, and then came the unusual events that followed…

The students' eyes were filled with despair.

There are only about ninety registered night patrolmen on the outer island of Higashiwai.

Each school can only be assigned about ten students, roughly two small teams.

...

Xiao Wen lives in the southeast corner of the school.

That area should be residential buildings near the park in the southeast corner of the school.

That residential building is right next to the park, so the view is quite good.

"It's a bit far."

He Zhou and Xiao Wen went downstairs together. Seeing Xiao Wen's nervous appearance, He Zhou couldn't help but ask curiously, "Don't be so nervous. Although Captain Song and his team have encountered a problem, it's unlikely that anything unusual will happen immediately, right?"

I used to live in Mingde Garden. Even if something unusual happened, as long as I didn't open the door, stayed home and slept peacefully, and didn't overthink things, there wouldn't be any major problems.

...

"Different."

Xiao Wen's eyes held a hint of worry: "I don't know what's going on in our area, but it's been prone to problems lately."

“Especially in the park area, many people have become very strange.”

Park area?

Upon hearing this, He Zhou instantly remembered it.

Holy crap.

Could this be the result of my own sins?

In the previous setting, Kim Dae-pang had a special item placed there.

Special items without an owner, if not used daily, will affect the surrounding area, becoming an anchor point between the demon world and the human world, like a nail holding that area together.

Once the distance is reduced, it becomes easier to be influenced.

Originally, He Zhou planned to retrieve the special items from the ninth area while cleaning.

But now it seems...

What if the situation becomes too dire, and things worsen in the future, with too many demons appearing, and I can no longer obtain it?

This is a special item!

Go and check the situation.

We can also bring Xiao Wen and his family over here.

...

Xiao Wen, who was standing next to He Zhou, didn't notice the change in He Zhou's expression and continued talking.

“Captain Song has come to our place several times in the past few days.”

“We encounter unusual situations every day.”

"I really..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Lu An put his hands in his pockets and said, "Let's go."

That calm and composed expression startled He Zhou for a moment.

"Where?"

"Qingshan Park".

Lu An paused, then continued, "And the nearby Qingshan residential area."

"Or are you planning to go and die alone?"

“I don’t think this is your style. Of course… I’m complimenting you. Being afraid of death isn’t a bad thing.”

In the comic, when the reader saw this part, they exclaimed "Huh?"

[I feel like I'm on a mission with my squad! I didn't feel this way with those previous, rubbish main quests.]

[If Lao He is so afraid of dying, why did he go to Area Nine? Was he going to retrieve something?]

[This should be a special item from Area Nine. You can see a bit of it if you zoom in on the letter on Lao He's desk earlier in the story.]

Someone replied below: "Are you guys crazy? You zoomed in on the letters on the table?"

...

Lu An had barely finished speaking when Jiang Dai angrily scoffed at him.

"You're the one who's going to die! My men won't go to their deaths!"

"..."

Xiao Wen then realized that they were actually planning to accompany him to his home.

"Need not!"

"How can we let you take such a risk?"

He waved his hand: "I... my family is just an ordinary family. We expected something like this to happen today."

"Besides, even if Lao He can save us this time, he can't save us next time. We..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw He Zhou had already walked quickly ahead. Seeing that he hadn't followed, He Zhou turned back in confusion and said, "Hurry up! Before it gets dark!"

Seeing Xiao Wen's stunned expression, He Zhou said speechlessly, "What are you standing there for!"

"What do you mean it can't be fixed this time or next time? Hurry up, why are you thinking about all this nonsense!"

“Our Mingde Garden is the safest place. Why don’t you all move here? We can look out for each other.”

He Zhou spoke with absolute confidence.

And the way he stood there inexplicably made people feel at ease.

...

Xiao Wen and Lu An hesitated.

"I don't own any property in Mingde Garden..."

"If it's a temporary stay, do I need to get a written statement from the landlord?"

He Zhou's lips twitched.

"Why bother with a statement about staying here?"

"Just pry it open."

"Nobody lives here."

"Whoever moves into an uninhabited place first gets to live there."

The group walked quickly outside together. Jiang Dai reached out and grabbed He Zhou's hand. Her hand was soft, delicate, and small.

He Zhou was startled by the sudden touch. He turned his head and saw the little guy looking wary: "People follow me, stay close!"

The wary yet clear look in her eyes, and the way she obediently followed him, softened He Zhou's heart instantly.

"Row."

"Hurry up."

Originally, she just slipped her small hand in to hold his, but He Zhou hesitated for a moment and then they intertwined their fingers.

Looking back at Jiang Dai staring blankly at their tightly clasped hands, he casually said, "This way they won't be easily separated."

"Yes! Yes! Meow, I'll remember!"

Then He Zhou felt her hand grasp his very seriously, her dark eyes full of trust.

...

Outside the school gate, the sky was beginning to darken.

In the distance, towards Qingshan Park, a grayish-white fog is gradually spreading over the residential buildings.

None of them stopped; instead, their pace quickened.

He Zhou was also running around outside after class for the first time, mainly to determine the situation and location of special items.

It would be bad if things got worse and we couldn't get it at all.

Chapter 92 This underworld comic suddenly became exciting 2

Qingshan Park is not too far away.

After all, it was previously located within a 5-kilometer radius of Kirishima No. 8 Middle School.
