Chapter Two Thousand and Thirty-Four Fascinated
This is it, the shrine maiden Kotoko came to the outside of the apartment building, only to feel the ghostly aura, knowing that this is definitely a vicious battle, so be completely prepared.
Although Kotoko is an Okinawan shrine maiden, her exorcism method is definitely not limited to Okinawa, not limited to Japan, and even not limited to ancient times, everything that is effective against evil spirits can be used not only in Shintoism, Buddhism, Korean witch halls, chanting, dancing gods, and even fungicides. Whatever evil spirits do not like, let it come in handy.
The district demons invited this time are also from all over the world, and Kotoko summoned them from all over the world in a few phone calls to perform a fusion of modern and ancient demon exorcism.
Aoi's family also joined, of course, they didn't want to participate in the exorcism, but to prepare for the exorcism. The work of exterminating demons is sacred, and there is no room for sloppiness.
Demons slayers all need qualifications, and participating in ceremonies presided over by parents and children in person requires qualifications. However, although the slayer requires qualifications, the preparation still requires a large number of people, so the local temples in Tokyo have workers.
The whole ceremony is quite exquisite, and even the wood used to build the altar is a hundred-year-old sacred tree, which has a considerable deterrent effect on evil spirits. And in order to make the whole ceremony more effective, Kotoko also drew a lot of sigils and stamped them. Workers have to work with sigils attached, so that they can inject spiritual power into them as they work.
The cunning evil spirits will not wait for the exorcist to attack, but will strike first, many exorcists have encountered evil spirit attacks on the road, and this time the evil spirit is quite rampant.
The exorcists had to split up so that at least one would make it to Tokyo alive, even if only one.
The exorcists on the road are exactly the same as ordinary people, and even many exorcists are like country aunts who have entered the city, and everyone is full of curiosity about the metropolis of Tokyo. There is nothing strange about their behavior, their clothes are also normal, they will also brag in groups, eat together, go shopping together, and even take photos and post them to Moments. Only when they are working, they put on traditional god costumes, sing exorcism songs, and sacrifice their lives to fight.
This is the modern exorcist, they are not averse to mobile phones, airplanes, after all, even evil spirits have kept pace with the times and began to use phones to commit crimes.
The Midnight Bell has become the standard for evil spirits.
The road in front of the apartment was blocked, as if to prepare for a celebration, and workers wearing hard hats and modern tools used modern tools to build altars, calculate formations, and even improvised tents to shelter from the wind and rain.
Young high school students took pictures of the shrine maidens, talking and laughing, and talking about which cosmetics had a better exorcism effect. Although you don't need makeup to exorcise demons, how can young people be faceless?
Conan looked at all of this and said what kind of activity was this? He didn't believe in evil spirits, only evil people. Originally, the battle to break the motives of the retired old man was very smooth, but he didn't expect that there would suddenly be a crowd of people outside, and there would be a celebration. Then the police also said that the gas leaked in the building, and they wanted to ask the residents to stay overnight in the surrounding hotels, and evacuated all the residents in the building.
Conan always thought it was strange, as if something big was about to happen.
The exorcists have stepped on several streets around the area, and the work has been assigned, someone is responsible for guiding the way, someone is responsible for pacifying, someone is responsible for suppression, and Kotoko is responsible for a head-to-head duel.
And Kotoko's dojo is set in room 502, in the hunting ground of Kuroshima.
"What the hell are these people doing?" Conan said that this was not a sabotage of his plan, and that if the old man left the residential building and saw the news from other sources, then his efforts and that of the AI to filter the news would be in vain. What kind of celebration is this for no reason, and although it's almost Christmas, but Christmas requires a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, how can there be witches and monks, these guys are too weird: "Is it Duran making trouble again?"
Denisha said: "This time it's really not Duran, this exorcism is because there is a demon demon who has been in trouble recently, and this evil spirit is very powerful, so there is such a battle." ”
What and what, I originally thought that Denisha was a normal person, but now Conan knows that he is wrong, how can a woman who will marry Duran be a normal person?
In fact, the main reason is that Conan really sees too little, he only knows the world of crime, but he doesn't know that there is a vast world outside. There are indeed evil spirits in this world, although ordinary people can't meet them, but Kotoko has to take on several cases a year, and the business is more busy than white-collar workers, all year round, either in exorcism, or on the way to exorcism.
Evil spirits also bully people for a long time, generally speaking, from childhood to adulthood, and there may be an incubation period of more than 20 years.
And the evil spirits generally do not kill the target immediately, but torture little by little, little by little. It is only when confronted with an exorcist that the evil spirit will show its most brutal side and immediately kill the killer. For general targets, the evil spirit will torture him for a year or two, and then kill him after he gets tired of it.
Conan didn't know or believe in this, he only feared that his plan would fail.
The preparations have been completed, but half of the exorcists who came from all directions are dead, but fortunately, everyone acted separately and did not kill them all. Despite their heavy losses, the exorcists remained brave and braved the battlefield from which they could not escape to face an enemy who had never been more terrible.
In the past, Kotoko could deal with evil spirits by herself or with a few people. But this time, she invited so many peers, which shows that the situation is very serious, and they must do their best to maintain the balance between the two realms.
The exorcism begins.
Even evil spirits must be respected as gods, and only in this way can evil spirits be brought in.
With a clean place and a 'rooster crow', welcome the evil spirits.
On the altar outside, the exorcists in formal clothes performed wave after wave, and the sky was day and night, and finally fixed at dusk, frozen in the gap between life and death.
The demon led the army to come, and for a time the ghost was full of spirit, the cold wind gusted, the ground shook, the building shook, and only by dividing the victory and defeat, everyone could return to their own world.
This is the exorcism war.
With such a large-scale battle, Duran naturally would not be absent, he took Kuroshima and let Kuroshima see the other side of this world, the other side that she had not been exposed to before.
After seeing it, Heidao only felt that there were still many bad people in this world, so she was at ease, she was not alone, and she could continue to harm people after she died.
Many people are afraid of death because of the unknown of death, if you know the scene after death, death will not be terrible, at least now Kuroshima is not afraid of death at all, and even a little looking forward to death.
Again, the old saying goes, the living are obsessed with death, and the dead are obsessed with life.
Duran continued to observe, the exorcism conference had just begun, the evil spirits were coming, and the strongest demon was about to face the strongest exorcist.
