From Earthbound Spirit to Tokyo Evil

Chapter 134 Demon Sword

"Natsukawa-kun, please let me take charge of the education of the apprentice miko with Reina!"

"Eh? Yui, do you want to get involved?" Xia Chuan naturally had no reason to object to such a request, but he was a little surprised by Aoki Yui's positive reaction. "What about Hezhuang?"

After all, Kawaguchi Reina is still a student, and most of the apprentice shrine maidens are also students, which means that the time they receive shrine maiden education basically overlaps with the time of club activities.

After school, they rushed to the venue specially prepared for them by Sato, and then attended a series of courses jointly determined by Sato Kentaro and Kawaguchi Rena.

Most of them are used for brainwashing and strengthening the belief in Natsukawa Daimyojin, and then to practice Kagura dance and how to take care of one's own pet and establish a connection with the pet.

The daily classes take more than four hours, and on weekends, students help participate in various activities of the sect. The first two are handled by Kentaro Sato himself, while the last two are handled by Rena Kawaguchi.

In order to cultivate the collective consciousness of the shrine maidens and the habit of serving the gods, dinner is prepared and eaten together. Therefore, after completing the shrine maiden training every day, it is around 10 o'clock in the evening.

In order to reduce the time wasted on the road, most of the witches chose to transfer to schools near the sect's headquarters, and even moved their homes nearby with the help of the sect.

In Xiachuan's opinion, only the last two items are really meaningful, and the previous ones are just a waste of time. But both Sato Kentaro and Kawaguchi Reina insisted that "strengthening faith" must be put first, and even raised it to a level related to the survival of the sect, so Xiachuan could only let them do it.

However, if Yui also joins in the education of the apprentice shrine maidens, how will she arrange her time?

"I decided to quit my job at Tsuru Sou." Yui Aoki bit her lip and said, holding the magatama in both hands.

This way of communication made her feel more comfortable when facing Xia Chuan. After all, Xia Chuan had been without a physical form for a long time, and they communicated in a similar way.

"Quit your job at Tsuruso?" This answer surprised Natsukawa a little. The scene of Yui Aoki working at Tsuruso had almost become a part of his impression of her. Matsushige Goro, that cold-outside-but-warm-inside guy, and those interesting old guys, just left like that?

"I can't keep working there forever." Yui Aoki said. "Please let me fulfill my responsibilities as a miko!"

This is indeed true. Although the salary offered by Matsushige Goro is far higher than similar part-time job opportunities, it is indeed impossible to continue working as an izakaya waitress forever.

"Since you have made your decision," Xia Chuan said with a sigh. "Then think carefully about your excuses and say goodbye to your boss properly."

"Yeah!" Yui Aoki nodded heavily.

She was actually very afraid to say these words to her boss, and she really hoped that Xia Chuan would show up at that time, but she didn't say it, nor did she even show it in the slightest.

Natsukawa-kun must have more important and more difficult things to do. As his shrine maiden, it is a dereliction of duty for me not to share his worries, and I must never disturb him with such things again.

"Victory, sit down!" Chiyu Moriyama held a small stick rolled up with paper in one hand and cat food in the other. The female cat named Moriyama Victory by her meowed somewhat dissatisfiedly, hesitated for a moment, and finally sat down obediently.

"Good boy!" Chiyu Moriyama finally smiled. She gently patted the black cat's head and gave it a few grains of cat food as a reward. Then she gave another order: "Victory, lie down!"

Is this really okay?

Xia Chuan continued to study the magic tools and spells while watching her training the spirit pet.

None of the witches before had ever made such an attempt.

Anyway, as long as spiritual pets have their intelligence awakened, they can communicate with their masters to a certain extent, and in most cases will execute their masters' orders. After they evolve into Shikigami, there will be no problems in this regard.

The only trouble lies in how to establish a connection with them and allow them to awaken their spiritual intelligence.

Different people do things differently, but most of them just take care of them, talk to them and play with them. There is really no one who trains them as strictly as Chiyu Moriyama.

It’s okay for dogs, but can animals like cats really be trained?

"Snapped!"

"Meow!!"

As expected, the black cat was hit very quickly and bared its fangs in dissatisfaction, but Moriyama Chiyu did not give in at all. She still held the paper stick in one hand and the cat food in the other: "Victory, lie down!"

Will the cat hate her? Can the two really establish a connection successfully?

Xia Chuan couldn't help but think so.

Whatever, I'll just find something for her to do to ease the awkwardness between the two of them. If Yui and Reina have already succeeded with the miko and Moriyama is still stagnant, why not use violence to catalyze it?

He turned his attention back to the object in front of him.

The effect of the paper ghost mask basically has no more room for development, but the demon sword imitated by Xia Chuan has never been used once.

He planned to give the fake demon sword to the test subject alone to test its effect, but... in this situation, how could he continue the experiment?

"Kiryu..." He could only give this task to the person who seemed most suitable. As someone who possessed the real ghost mask and the real demon sword, he should know better what kind of person was more suitable to test such a weapon. "I leave it to you. Be careful not to involve yourself."

"Understood." Kiryu Ichiryu replied briefly.

Natsukawa sent five fake demon swords copied in different ways to him through crows, and Kiryu Ichiryū quickly took action.

The world of Tokyo Yakuza has been in chaos for a long time.

The struggle between the Yamagata Group, the Keiyo-kai, and the three factions of Honda Katsuri, Baba Tsukumasa, and Tanikuji, which split from the Togoku-kai, has never stopped. Although the open fighting has long stopped under the pressure of Tokyo Watch, Akasaka and the Metropolitan Police Department, the fighting under the table has never really ended.

It was in this chaos that the Kiryu Group had the opportunity to suddenly rise in places like Arakawa and Itabashi that were looked down upon by major organizations, and they quickly gained a foothold with their extremely tough and violent style.

With examples like theirs and because of the practical needs of major organizations, countless young hooligans with dreams were encouraged by legendary stories to "go to Tokyo" from all over Japan, trying to carve out a world of their own through force.

And the vast majority of them eventually became cannon fodder in gang fights.

Full of anger, powerless against reality, longing for change and power, and accustomed to abusing violence, they are simply the perfect experimental subjects.

The first fake demon sword was quickly sent out.

Chapter 135 Demonic Sword (2)

In an alley in Kabukicho, Shinjuku, a group of people were chasing two young men with dyed blond hair.

The two men fled frantically, but the other side had far more people than them, and all the exits around them were blocked. Gradually, they were forced into a dead end and completely lost hope of escape.

“Don’t come over here…” Daito Kashiwano waved the stick he picked up while fleeing and shouted desperately. “Don’t come over here!”

His companions around him were doing the same thing in vain.

"You dare to hang around here after beating us up? Do you think all of us in the Maeda group are dead?" A bald man with a bruise on his face sneered. "Weren't you arrogant before? Keep jumping!"

The two people who were surrounded looked at each other and saw the hopelessness in each other's eyes.

They are all the same kind. If they brought people to surround the other party, even if the other party knelt down and begged for mercy, the result would definitely be the same.

Moreover, if they did that, they would completely lose the opportunity to succeed.

No gang will accept a spineless guy.

But... there are at least ten people on the other side. Can I get away alive today?

"Come on!" the bald man shouted loudly.

The people behind him lifted up the trash cans next to them and smashed them hard at the two people who were surrounded. At the same time, they waved baseball bats, steel pipes and other things, and rushed towards them with strange shouts.

Dadong Baiye only hit one man's shoulder, and then he was hugged by another man. He was hit hard on the arm and could no longer hold the stick. The other party pushed him to the ground, and several people surrounded him and kicked and hit him. He could only curl up his body as much as possible and desperately protect his vital parts, but his arm was soon hit so hard that he could no longer move, and his head was stepped on hard, and he almost fainted.

Are you going to die here?

In the chaos, something like a wooden stick suddenly rolled to his hand, and his remaining desire to survive made him subconsciously grab the thing.

"Beat him hard!" the bald man shouted excitedly from behind the crowd.

At this time, the people in the front row suddenly stopped moving. The bald man was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask them what happened, but he saw that one of them's body suddenly broke at the waist, and blood and internal organs suddenly fell in front of him.

Another person's legs were severed almost at the thighs, and his body fell into a pool of blood. After a few seconds, he screamed in pain and fear. The third person's legs were severed at the knees, and he was also unable to stand up. He fell into a pool of blood and internal organs, screaming wildly.

Even in the underworld, such a scene rarely occurs. The brains of those who were enjoying the pleasure of beating their opponents madly the previous second suddenly crashed. The next moment, blood burst out again. The fourth person was cut diagonally from the crotch to the chest, and the accomplice standing next to him had half of his head chopped off. Their consciousness finally recovered from the extreme shock, and they began to flee backwards frantically.

But Daito Kashiwano did not give them a chance. Driven by the weapon in his hand, he ran and waved his weapon. In just a few seconds, those guys who had forced them nowhere to escape all fell to the ground, leaving only the bald guy.

He was so frightened that he lost the ability to move, like a frog being stared at by a snake, trembling all over but not daring to make even a single unnecessary movement.

"I...you...I...I..." Blood flashed again, and he was cut in half from the shoulders down. Because the knife was too sharp, the body lost balance and fell to the ground after a few seconds.

The companion who had been beaten to a bloody mess only saw the horrific scene in front of him at this time. Although the person who did it was his friend who grew up with him, at this moment, he was so scared that his brain went blank.

It was not until Dadong Baiye slowly walked up to him that he suddenly realized something and shouted anxiously: "Baiye, it's me! You..."

Whoosh... Boom, Boom, Boom...

Daito Kashiwano killed all those who were still struggling in pain one by one. The next second, he suddenly regained consciousness. The knife in his hand, which had begun to shine because of drinking blood, fell from his hand because of fear. With a snap, it turned back into a wooden stick and rolled into a pool of blood.

These... memories suddenly flooded into his head. The despairing thing was that he could clearly remember the details of killing each person. His stomach suddenly churned violently, forcing him to throw himself to the side and vomit. Then, he looked at the slaughterhouse in front of him in horror. His brain was completely unable to accept this fact. He screamed in horror and stumbled out of the alley.

"Because of the excessive stimulation, he lost his logical thinking ability and also lost some of his memory. Although I got some information through hypnosis, it's not complete. Whether he can recover depends on the follow-up treatment, but I don't think we can get anything out of him now."

"Thank you for your hard work." Kuroda Koji said to the doctor, who nodded and returned to the ambulance.

The "murderer" named Daito Kashiwano was curled up in the corner of the ambulance with a blanket wrapped around him, his eyes dull and his whole body trembling. If it weren't for the blood splattered on his body, it would be really hard to connect him with the murderer.

There are not many surveillance cameras around. Japan's weak government and the over-emphasis on privacy that is similar to that of the United States once again bring great difficulties to the investigation work. The only thing they can find from the surveillance video is the process of Daito Kashiwano walking on the street in a daze and covered in blood, causing chaos and leading to passers-by calling the police. As for what happened before that, it is completely unclear.

Judging from the bloodstains on his body and the results of the on-site investigation, he must have killed those people with his own hands, but what the murder weapon was and why it was so sharp and brutal could not be determined from the results at the scene.

A car suddenly drove directly into the isolation zone. Kuroda Koji frowned slightly, but saw Derek Scott and the boy named Hiroshi Kamiya getting out of the car.

He then walked over immediately.

"This is Akasaka's acting head, Kuroda Koji, and this is Kamiya Hiroshi." Derek made a brief introduction.

He already knew that his life was saved by Hiro Kamiya, which caused his attitude towards Hiro Kamiya to change slightly.

The ongoing surveillance will certainly not stop because of this, but in a sense, after experiencing this incident, he has higher expectations for Hiroshi Kamiya.

It was for this reason that when he heard that a new vicious abnormal incident had occurred, he rushed over with Hiroshi Kamiya.

Kuroda Koji also has a good impression of Kamiya Hiroshi. No matter what the reason for his sudden appearance is, and no matter what kind of monster he is, from his appearance to his behavior habits, to the environment he lives in, he is a complete Japanese product. So for Kuroda Koji, he is an object that is very worthy of attention and interaction.

Just as he was about to chat with Hiroshi Kamiya to close the distance between them, another car drove directly into the isolation area.

A moment later, three men wearing crow masks got out of the car.

Chapter 136 Demonic Sword (3)

This is really lively...

Xia Chuan couldn't help but shook his head.

Sasaki Daisuke's clothes are really eye-catching... Although he had to give up the original coat with a lot of black feathers and the equally exaggerated top hat under the strong request of others, the replacement clothes still had black feathers on them, and the top hat was just changed to a hood. However, he was unwilling to give up the mask with red eyepieces, which made him the most eye-catching one whenever he appeared.

If the enemy deploys a sniper one day, he will definitely be the first to be killed.

The other two people were naturally Tachibana Hiroichi and Aoshima. As soon as they got off the car, they saw Kuroda Koji and walked straight over here.

"You can't see me...you can't see me." Natsukawa covered his face with his hands, not because he was afraid of being seen by them, but because Sasaki Daisuke's appearance was too embarrassing.

I just thought it was funny when I was watching the fun before, but when I suddenly had to stand next to him, the feeling of shame was too strong.

But Daisuke Sasaki noticed him immediately, raised his hand excitedly, and almost called out his name.

"Why are you here?" Kuroda Koji was a little surprised.

It's not surprising that the Scott team came over, as they were established to solve this kind of problem.

But the Corpse Agency? Aren’t they protecting VIP M?

"Don't mention it. That woman asked us to come over to see her." Qingdao said unhappily. "We are only protecting her temporarily. She really thinks she is our leader."

Tachibana Koichi was in an awkward position and usually didn't say much in such occasions, and Sasaki Daisuke was unreliable, so he became the natural leader.

Of course, from the perspective of the Corpse Agency, there is no need to consider too much about the expressions of the Watchers and Akasaka, and many things can be said openly.

Kuroda Koji and Derek could only pretend they didn't hear what was said. Kuroda Koji quickly introduced Derek to them, but when it was Natsukawa's turn, Sasaki Daisuke couldn't help but say, "Brother Kamiya, we are old acquaintances!"

Kuroda Koji's brows twitched slightly.

Xia Chuan really wanted to kick this guy in the stomach, but he had to say, "We used to eat in the same restaurant and met a few times."

"Oh? That's really fate, haha." Kuroda Koji looked nonchalant, but Natsukawa felt that he would most likely investigate the matter, and it would definitely not be as simple as asking Tachibana Koichi.

Fortunately, Yui has already left Tsuru Manor. Thinking about it this way, although the starting point of this decision was not to avoid Akasaka's investigation, it was indeed timely and correct.

"Let's go see the scene." Derek had no interest in such socializing.

"Come this way." Kuroda Koji said immediately.

The bloody scene was enough to make even the most experienced forensic doctor feel uncomfortable. Tachibana Koichi had experienced many vicious and abnormal events, so he had some tolerance. Derek was born as an "extinctor" and this was what he did. This level of bloodiness only made him excited. Aoshima and Sasaki Daisuke's reactions were a bit serious. Sasaki almost vomited in his mask, but what surprised everyone was that Natsukawa, a high school student, looked very calm, as if he was used to such scenes.
