She actually told herself this in her heart, but...

But Morikami Nozomi just couldn't be happy.

After his mother killed his father, Nozomi Morikami's life suddenly embarked on a dark road.

The verbal abuse and rift between his grandparents made Morikami Nozomi, who was already finding it difficult to live with himself, lose almost all his places to stay.

For Nozomi Morikami at this moment, Genki's side was the only place where she could anchor her existence.

After Yuanhui agreed to her request, Morikami Nozomi was actually very frightened.

She didn't know whether she, an ordinary person, was worthy of that position, so she had always been working very hard.

She wanted to prove her worth to Yuanhui, to prove to him that she was still useful, so that she could be at ease by his side and enjoy the warmth coming from him.

However, today, she was told something tactfully——

That was just her wishful thinking.

Someone can do better than her.

The truth that she had deliberately avoided seeing was now so vividly and cruelly revealed to the girl.

Looking up at himself in the mirror, Morikami Nozomi gave an illusory and fragile smile, but that smile was filled with sadness, almost like crying.

"If only I could be more important to Yuan-Jun."

The girl's murmurs echoed quietly in this bathroom where she was the only one, and then -

That's how I got a response.

"Then, as you wish."

The voice that answered Morikami Nozomi was very familiar to her.

No, that was her own voice!

Nozomi Morikami opened her eyes wide, but her body seemed to be frozen and she couldn't move at all.

In the mirror right in front of her, her reflection gave her a smug smile.

She just stretched out her hand to her true self outside the mirror...

On the shelf testimonials!

After many twists and turns, the time has finally come for this book to be put on the shelves. It is impossible not to be nervous, but as the saying goes, even a naughty daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law, so this journey is inevitable.

Normally, it is customary to sell sympathy when a book is put on the shelf, but everyone reads books for relaxation, so it is better not to say such things that spoil the mood, and directly say something that everyone wants to read——

In any case, there will be a 20,000-word update tomorrow, which shows my sincerity and attitude towards this book.

By the way, this book is still on reward, the rules are -

Every 100 monthly tickets will add 2k words;

Every 100 blades add 2k words;

Every 1 reward will add 2k words;

The silver treasure chest (everyone is happy) is 1 words, and the gold treasure chest (everyone is happy) is 3 to 2 words.

These additional updates are calculated after the daily 4k word update.

over!

Well, see you all tomorrow!

Fifty-Five, [Another Me in the World] (4k, first update)

When 'Morikami Nozomi' walked out of the bathroom, he met the concerned gaze of the female police officer.

As a member of society, and someone who was tasked with contacting the Soul Binders, she naturally had a pair of good eyes that were good at observing people's words and expressions.

Of course, she noticed that Morikami Nozomi was disappointed, and she actually knew exactly why he was disappointed.

She had actually read Morikami Nozomi's information, so she naturally knew the complicated situation of the girl in front of her.

In this situation, knowing the truth of the world, it is quite normal to regard Yuanhui, the soul binder, as one's only support.

Of course, she was also touched by the other party's eagerness to help Yuanhui, but it is better to let professionals do professional things.

This is also a better choice for Yuanhui.

Besides, they didn't take away Morikami Nozomi's position, did they?

Not only that, they even helped Morikami Nozomi change her academic status so that she could become classmates with Genki.

No matter from which perspective, she felt that the Metropolitan Police Department had done its best.

If Morikami Nozomi is still upset about this and can't get over it...

With such unstable factors, it might not be suitable for me to continue staying with Yuanhui.

Of course, this does not mean that the Metropolitan Police Department will take action against Morikami Nozomi in secret.

That would be too low, and might even cause dissatisfaction and resentment from Yuanhui.

They will only use the method of 'fair competition' to gradually push Morikami aside, and this is the most appropriate way.

Fortunately, after going to the bathroom to wash her face, the girl in front of him had sorted out her mood, at least on the surface.

The vibrant glow reappeared on her delicate face.

"I'm sorry, Suzuki-nee." Morikami Nozomi bowed deeply to the policewoman in front of her and said in an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Then she took the initiative to walk to Officer Suzuki's side and said -

"You haven't finished telling me about the duties of a supporter."

"As a classmate of Gen-kun, is there anything I should do in school?"

The female police officer named Suzuki was delighted by the girl's rapid transformation. She took Mori no Nozomi's arm affectionately and said, "There's not much you need to do about this..."

However, neither Officer Suzuki, the staff walking in the corridor, nor the camera on the top noticed that next to 'Morikami Nozomi' stood a girl who looked exactly like Morikami Nozomi!

She was clearly standing there, but everyone ignored her. Even the light did not deflect when passing through her.

It was like she wasn't human.

It is a ghost that can neither interfere with the world nor be observed.

……

……

Do you ever feel this way?

This world is so difficult and life is so painful, why should I bear all of this?

If there was another better and stronger me in this world, would everything be different?

If a person with such a strong desire expresses such a wish in front of a mirror, the other "you" in the mirror will hear it.

She will break through the limitations of the mirror world, come to the world on this side of the mirror, and inherit all your interpersonal and social relationships, becoming an ideal "you".

You yourself will not be locked in the mirror, but will become a "non-existent person" who cannot be observed by anyone and cannot interfere with anything.

This weird name is called -

[The world is another me].

……

……

Genki naturally didn't know what happened to Morikami Nozomi. He had just finished a psychological evaluation with Tokudaiji Saori, and the result of the evaluation was -

There is no problem.

Yuanhui does not have any antisocial tendencies and has a positive mental state.

If the full score is 100, this is an extremely high score of at least 90 points.

This is natural.

Although there are strange things, the psychological development of this world seems to be no different from that of the previous life.

As someone who has received professional training in this area, Yuan Hui naturally could not show any flaws.

Although he accepted the olive branch extended by the Metropolitan Police Department, and judging from the current performance, the Metropolitan Police Department is very sincere in recruiting him, Yuan Hui himself is still subconsciously wary of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Don't forget that [Suzuki Shin] was a monster who was originally under the official jurisdiction of Sakurajima, but was deliberately led to his apartment.

Yuanhui did not raise this issue to Inspector Songmu and the others, and they did not raise it to him either.

Judging from the other party's current behavior, it seems that the Minato Metropolitan Police Department is indeed unaware of this matter.

But this does not mean that Yuanhui can rest assured.

Even if [Suzuki Shin] is a monster taken in by the Metropolitan Police Department in other regions, as a creature belonging to the same system, the Metropolitan Police Department in Minato Ward will definitely have relevant information about him.

As a result, the other party not only came to the port area, but also successfully completed the entire process of renting a house, without encountering any obstacles during this period.

This is as exaggerated as if a murderer who is responsible for dozens of lives passed the railway's facial recognition and got on the train with arrogance.

The only explanation is that there must be a mole on the other side within the police system of the port area.

After seeing Genki's test results, Tokudaiji Saori opened her mouth slightly, looking a little surprised, and then she showed a very happy smile.

She is Yuanhui's psychological counselor, and for her, there is no better news than Yuanhui's mental health.

"Congratulations, Gen-kun, you are in very good mental and psychological condition." While saying this, Tokudaiji Saori took out the documents that had been prepared long ago and placed them on the table in front of the two of them.

"Here is your ID, please keep it safe."

This is a two-fold certificate that can be opened vertically. When it is opened, one side contains the certificate representing Yuanhui's identity. The other half is a cherry blossom badge.

This is also the badge of the Sakurajima police.

"Your current rank is Superintendent. Not only do you enjoy the same treatment and allowances as a Superintendent, but during the period of handling strange things, all police officers of the Minato Metropolitan Police Department will obey your orders."

"In addition, every time you deal with something strange, you are eligible to mobilize no more than three unforgivable death row prisoners to serve as cannon fodder to test the strangeness."

"Once you have dealt with four anomalies, your police rank will be automatically promoted to [Superintendent]."

Tokudaiji Saori tried her best to explain the detailed rules to Genki.

"How many colleagues do I have in the Minato Police Department?" Yuan Hui asked with some concern. "How many strange things appear in Minato every year? How long does it usually take for me to take action?"

"Currently, we have a total of 27 soul binders in the Metropolitan Police Department." Tokudaiji Saori had obviously expected that Genki would be concerned about these issues. "Among the 23 districts of Tokyo, the population of Minato District is considered to be lower-middle, and the frequency of strange occurrences is not too high, about 50 times a year."

"Of course, these are data from previous years. According to statistics, the frequency of strange occurrences has been increasing year by year, and is also affected by crustal activity."

"If a super-large earthquake occurs in the Tokyo area, or if Mount Fuji, which has been dormant for more than 300 years, erupts again, the strangeness of the activities in Tokyo may suddenly exceed a certain threshold, and even reach the legendary "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" scene."

"Well, I don't think we'll be that unlucky."

While saying this, Tokudaiji Saori winked at Genki playfully. It was obvious that these words were just a joke from this older sister.

"You will need to take action about twice a year." After a light cough, Tokudaiji Saori continued, "However, as a new soul binder, you will need to take action the next time something strange happens in the port area."

"This is not directed at you, this is true for all soulbinders."

"I hope you understand this."

Yuanhui nodded.

This is a bit of preferential treatment for veteran soul binders, which is understandable.

Moreover, the Metropolitan Police Department should also be hoping to see the true quality of Yuanhui through this move.

No matter how good the data on paper is, the true value of the Soul Binder lies in dealing with weirdness.

However, this time the entire process of dealing with the strangeness has to be done under the eyes of the Metropolitan Police Department, so he has to be extra careful and only display abilities related to [Lika].

[Blood Field] goes without saying, and [Being Friendly to Kind Neighbors] should also be hidden as much as possible.

Although people in this world can use souls to capture monsters, the summoning slot is not infinite.

Most people can only have one weirdo in their lifetime.

Because there is only one soul in man.

If two weirdnesses are accommodated in this soul at the same time, they will naturally conflict with each other.
