Then, the armor on her head split open a mouth half the size of her face. Inside, three rows of sharp teeth flashed coldly, and five black tentacle-like tongues kept waving.

"But now I'm hungrier than you."

The next moment, a black flash pierced into the body of the gluttonous python.

……

After sensing the appearance of another evil spirit, Tsuzaki Mahiru became anxious and used all his strength to beat the greedy cat demon in front of him so hard that the demon didn't know which way was which and rolled back to the subspace in disgrace.

"Damn it, why is there another evil spirit appearing at Hua Lian's place?"

She leaped from the air and landed in front of the restaurant.

Then, a horrifying scene came into her sight.

The gluttonous python, which was tens of meters long, was lying on the ground, its body twitching slightly, and it was already dead.

Its body was torn in half, and the front half had become a pool of blurred flesh and blood. A creepy chewing sound was coming from the inside of the gluttonous python.

When Tsuzaki Mahiru got closer, she saw a black humanoid monster feasting on the two-meter-thick cross-section of the gluttonous python, with broken bones scattered all over the ground.

Not only that, dozens of tentacles grew from the monster's back, penetrating into the gluttonous python's body and devouring its flesh and blood.

"vomit!"

Having never seen such a bloody scene before, Tsuzaki Mahiru vomited immediately.

Aicheng Hualian looked back and stopped what he was doing with his mouth.

Oh no, the evil god's young was enjoying its meal so much that it forgot that Tsuzaki Mahiru would come back to check on the situation.

"hey-hey."

She smiled sheepishly, but filtered through the armor, her laughter turned into a hideous scream.

"Sorry, I scared you."

Aicheng Hualian melted in front of the other person, merged into the shadow of the dark street, and disappeared.

Chapter 3: Be obedient!

At a corner of the street, the black shell turned into a sticky liquid and slid off Aicheng Hualian's body, allowing her to return to her human form.

The young evil god in the body expressed its dissatisfaction almost immediately.

【…Hungry…】

"Alright, alright. I know you're not full yet. You almost made me reveal my true identity in front of Mahiru."

She supported herself on the wall with her left hand, breathing heavily. The scenes in her vision were all doubled, and the whole world was shaking.

It is not an easy task to endure the possession of an evil god in a human body.

It was like throwing your body into the deep sea, soaking it, freezing your skin and flesh, and then replacing them with something else.

After being possessed, every heartbeat seems to be forcibly driven by an invisible hand, and every thought is influenced by the evil god, and one will be led astray if one is not careful.

The evil spirits born from the energy of the subspace are completely opposed to real life.

Anyone unlucky enough to be touched by evil spirits will suffer severe damage to the source of their life, and will either die or become disabled.

The status of the evil god in Aicheng Hualian's body is countless times higher than those ordinary minions.

According to common sense, even just a touch of the evil god's breath is enough to turn an adult into blood in endless pain.

But not only did Aicheng Hualian not end up in such a miserable state, but she was also able to withstand the possession of the other party and borrow the power of the evil god to eliminate the evil spirits. The reason for this is very simple, because Aicheng Hualian is not an ordinary person "without psychic powers".

In the disaster five years ago, Aicheng Hualian awakened his psychic powers when he was on the verge of death.

The source of her spiritual energy is "survival".

The tragedies of her friends and teachers made her realize the sadness of death, and the hatred in her heart made her desire to survive.

I have to live to avenge my friends and teachers at the orphanage. I have to live for myself, too.

The moment the evil spirit pierced her heart, her desire to survive quickly grew. She was willing to pay any price as long as she could survive.

Extreme adversity breeds extreme will. Aicheng Hualian's desire for survival awakens her psychic powers, but also attracts the attention of the evil god. It gazes at the girl lying in a pool of blood, a feeder it finds so satisfying, yearning for life and loathing death.

It is just right for it as it is also on the verge of death.

Thus, the evil god's young body signed a contract with the thirteen-year-old girl, and the two dying lives were connected together.

The evil god's young body replaced Aicheng Hualian's pierced heart and gave her a new life. Her spiritual energy with extremely strong vitality also became the evil god's food, pulling her back from the cliff of death. It was a mutually beneficial contract.

With Aijo Karen's psychic properties, she is fully capable of regenerating severed limbs and growing flesh from bones, and her rank after becoming an investigator will not be low.

However, since most of the spiritual energy in her body is used to bear the burden brought by the evil god, to the outside world, she is just an ordinary girl without any spiritual energy.

even so……

"puff!"

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Aicheng Hualian frowned as he watched the pool of purple liquid disappear into the shadows.

Every time she borrowed the power of the evil god, Aicheng Hualian would be exhausted for a while. Every cell in her body was groaning in protest, and every nerve was trembling in the residual power of the god.

This is the price to pay for using evil energy that is contrary to life, and no one can share it with her.

There was no time for her to rest here. She had to go back quickly to report to Tsuzaki Mahiru that she was safe.

When they reached the door of the restaurant, the body of the gluttonous python had already disappeared. It must have been purified by Tsuzaki Mahiru's psychic power.

The other party had taken off the investigator's disguise and returned to the appearance of a twenty-year-old girl. She was wandering anxiously in the restaurant, shouting Aicheng Hualian's name all the time.

Tsuzaki Mahiru's face was pale. The development of the situation was completely beyond her control.

The sudden appearance of the evil and gluttonous python was one thing, but what worried her the most was the humanoid monster that appeared out of nowhere and devoured the evil spirits.

Generally speaking, most ordinary evil spirits only satisfy their own inner greed, have a single goal, and feed on human negative emotions. Only some extremely vicious evil spirits will kill humans themselves, which can be said to be draining the pond to catch fish, but they are only a very small minority.

But an evil spirit that directly devoured an evil spirit? In her two-year career as an investigator, she had never seen such a thing.

"A monster that doesn't even spare evil spirits? This situation must be reported."

The enemy of my enemy is my friend?

Tsuzaki Mahiru does not have such childish thoughts in her heart.

The aura emanating from the humanoid monster did not seem to be on the side of humans at all. It was more like an existence that was darker than evil.

She turned almost the entire restaurant upside down, but still didn't see Aicheng Hualian.

"No…don't do this."

The fear of losing her best friend again gripped her heart, and a haze filled her deep blue eyes.

"Mahiru-sister, I'm here!"

At this moment, Aicheng Hualian appeared at the door of the restaurant in time, calling her name.

"Hua Lian! I'm glad you're okay!"

Without caring about anything else, Tsuzaki Mahiru hugged Aishiro Karen in a bear hug. He carefully examined the orange-haired girl's body again. After confirming that Karen was unharmed, he scolded her, "I told you to stay in the restaurant. Why didn't you listen?"

"Hey, I saw that big python was about to break in, so I quietly slipped out of the back door of the restaurant."

"You're quite clever." After scratching Aijo Karen's nose, a hint of hesitation flashed across Tsuzaki Mahiru's face, but she continued, "Besides that giant python, did you see anything else?"

"Other things?" Aicheng Hualian tilted his head, looking puzzled.

"Like, a dark, humanoid monster?"

"No... Uh! No."

Aicheng Hualian suddenly frowned. Inside her body, the evil god's young was protesting violently.

[…Get…out of here…]

A chilling malice gushed out from her heart, like thousands of sharp thorns, sharpening towards Tsuzaki Mahiru in front of her.

"What the hell are you doing?" Aicheng Hualian shouted in his heart.

Recently, the young evil god in her body has become more and more restless, and she has a vague feeling of breaking free from her restraints.

Could it be that evil gods also have a rebellious adolescence?

[…Don’t touch…]

The intermittent thoughts coming from the larva made Aicheng Hualian angry and amused.

It turned out that the other party was angry because of the physical contact between her and Tsuzaki Mahiru, but it was just a hug to express care!

Kill her...

A cold evil energy emanated from her chest and spread to her left shoulder, where Tsuzaki Mahiru's right hand was resting.

Seeing that the evil energy was about to break out of the body and destroy Tsuzaki Mahiru's right hand, Aishiro Karen shouted loudly.

"Listen! I'm your mother! Stop it!"

【…】

Chapter 4: A Small Room with a Big Secret

On the way back, nothing else happened.

Half an hour later, Aishiro Karen and Tsuzaki Mahiru parted ways in front of No. 23 Lingya Street, Longyue District, Donghua City, and walked towards their homes.

It was a two-story house with a basement and a private pavilion on the roof.

The house occupies a considerable area and has all the necessary facilities, but the rent is very cheap because it is a haunted house where someone has died.

The previous tenant of the house hanged himself in the living room because of a sharp drop in the stock market he invested in. His body was not discovered until it had already rotted away. This also led to the rent of the house being reduced to one tenth of the market price.

Moreover, when the house was announced to be for rent, only Aicheng Hualian was willing to move in.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this house is full of ominous signs, but Aicheng Hualian doesn't care. After all, what is inside her body is the real heavyweight.

Opening the door and passing by the simple furnishings in the living room, Aicheng Hualian greeted Miss Xia Mei who was floating on the ceiling.

Youteng Xiamei was the previous tenant of this house. After her death, she became a grounded spirit here, wandering around the living room all day long.

"How was your day, Miss Xia Mei?"

"It's gone up! It's gone up!"

Shaking his head helplessly, Aicheng Hualian left the living room and walked towards the stairs leading to the second floor of the house.

Perhaps because of the trauma caused by the stock market crash during her lifetime, Miss Xia Mei, who has become a groundbound spirit, can only repeat the words "it went up" or "it went down" all day long.

The reason why Aicheng Hualian did not drive her away was not only because he felt sorry for her and wanted to give her a place to stay, but also because he wanted to use her as a "warning bell".

If a thief or some other mysterious person breaks into this house, Miss Xia Mei will definitely react and change, letting Aicheng Hualian know about the accident.

A free, all-weather anti-theft monitoring device, how great.

Walking up the stairs, I saw that the second floor of the house was empty, with dust on the ground and black window paper on the floor-to-ceiling windows. One room occupied nearly one-third of the area.

Aicheng Hualian looked at the locked door in front of her and said in her heart: "Come on, spit out the key."

Gulu…

The blue-black mass in her chest squirmed gently, and a key emerged from her chest, just caught in it. She reached into her collar, picked out the key with a slight body fragrance with her fingers, put it into the keyhole on the door handle, and twisted it to the left.

With a click, she pushed the heavy door open, and what came into view was a room filled with all kinds of strange things.

In the upper left corner of the room is a refrigerator covered with blood vessels, and several strange black and blue flowers are blooming by the wall. There are many photos and newspapers on the wall, and some newspapers have nails nailed in them, connecting them to other newspapers with red lines.

A computer that had obviously been modified by supernatural powers was sitting on the desk in the middle of the room. When it saw Aicheng Hualian, the computer screen suddenly lit up and put on a smile.

"Ding ding, welcome home, master." said a synthesized female electronic voice, full of flattery.

"Turn on the computer and switch to the interface of the evil spirit elimination platform."

"As ordered."

He walked into the room and locked the door. The flowers in the room emitted a refreshing fragrance at the right time. The refrigerator covered with blood vessels opened automatically, revealing all kinds of strange foods inside, waiting for Aicheng Hualian to take them.

Everything in this room has its own consciousness, because Aicheng Hualian often lets the evil spirit in her body out to wander around in this room.

As the evil god's young body continued to grow, Aicheng Hualian found that her role as a caretaker was gradually becoming less capable, unable to contain the evil god's full power within her body. In the past two months, tentacles or jelly-like substances had been constantly slipping out of her body.

The solution to the problem is also very simple - let the evil god go out for a walk, just like walking a pet, which can effectively alleviate the huge burden that the evil god brings to her.
