In the eyes of the past schoolgirls with contempt and disgust, Sosuke Araki hurriedly picked up the things on the ground and put them back in the cardboard box with great care.

Abeji also quietly moved two steps into the distance with a look of contempt to show his innocence.

"Ahem...... I didn't come that day for a reason. “

Coughing, Sosuke Araki said to Abe Temple with a serious face.

"Is there a secret as I thought?"

"For some reason, the sword intent under the lower has become no longer clear......"

"Indulge in these filthy things all day long, it's strange that your sword intent can be clear!"

Abeji immediately complained.

"I can't believe that I was careless and defeated by such a turbid sword intent as you!"

"Hmph, it's too naïve, do you really think that a strong man like me will easily surrender to desire?"

"Is it ......?"

Looking at Sosuke Araki's serious expression, Abeji was also slightly moved.

"Yes, it's a practice, right...... On the practice of ordinary mind. ”

"What are you talking about......"

Before Abeji could finish speaking, Sousuke Araki took out a magazine in a cardboard box and unfolded it to him.

On the inside page of the magazine, a girl with a strong figure and "wearing a uniform that is not properly covered" has her fingers in her mouth and looks at the camera with a blushing face.

Suddenly suffering a critical blow, Abeji's face suddenly looked like a boiled crab.

"Hmph, there is a flaw......"

Not good.

I don't know when, Sosuke Araki, who was originally in front, has moved to the back of Abe Temple.

"It's so fast......"

Before Abeji could react, the person behind him had already posted it up, and said with a wicked smile in his ear: "Your heart is messed up...... At this distance, if you are in the competition, you have already lost. ”

"No, I was just ...... moment"

Abe immediately retorted.

"Hmph, it's just one of the big posters that was specially given away from the inside page...... What about these, and what about these...... Even magazines can't beat it, and in the face of a huge number of DVDs, where do you think you can go? Not to mention that even I still don't have the courage to challenge the Great Demon King 'Lina'......"

Looking at Sosuke Araki, who quickly flipped through the magazine in front of him and displayed the endless "source of evil" in the cardboard box, Abeji's eyes were dazed, and his forehead was covered with a large number of beads of sweat, and he fell to his knees in despair, agreeing with the other party's statement.

Those who practice kendo value a normal mind the most, and they need to be able to deal with things without being alarmed, and maintain their state of mind no matter what enemy they face.

He learned swords at the age of six, went through countless rigorous cultivations, and thought that he had forged an unbreakable state of mind.

Facing the few thin prints that the other party took out, his ordinary heart, which he had cultivated for many years, was broken so easily.

Until now, even my breathing is a little short.

"It turns out that you have been using such a terrible thing to cultivate the ...... of 'normal mind'."

"Now, you understand my bottleneck...... One day he couldn't defeat 'Lina', and Kenshin couldn't regain his clarity one day. ”

With his back to Abeji Temple, who was kneeling on the ground, Sosuke Araki had a melancholy look on his face.

I won't tell you that I didn't go to the finals last time because I couldn't get up the night before because I was racing and drinking with the people in the mob group.

Looking at Sousuke Araki's back, Abeji suddenly realized.

I see, this guy really ran into a bottleneck in his cultivation, so he escaped that day.

Suddenly, Sosuke Araki turned around and stuffed something into Abeji's arms.

"Come, I've treasured this 'study DVD' for many years and send it to you, go back and practice your normal mind."

"Even so, I won't lose to you...... The next time we meet, I hope we have all broken through our respective bottlenecks and can let you lose under my sword in the best condition. ”

Looking at Sousuke Araki, who was holding the cardboard box, Abeji squeezed the DVD in his hand hard, and his fighting spirit was high.

……

Just when Sousuke Araki finally sent Abeji and shipped his "private collection" back to the apartment.

500 meters away from Shibuya University of Economics, on the upper floor of the Shibuya Police Station of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, in the office with the words "Ninth Special Operations Section", a short girl with curly blond hair and different eyes named Mochizuki Ayano is holding a report and is furious.

"So you tell me, it's this little gangster named Sosuke Araki, who graduated from a fifth-rate university and has 105 counseling records at the police station, and after failing to apply for a GV actor yesterday, when he passed by the alley, he easily exceeded the weird level [One] of the human-faced dog? And according to the time he came in and out, didn't it take more than half a minute? Is it okay for us to disband Lesson 9? ”

When he said a certain word, Mochizuki Ayano disgusted and threw the information in his hand on the table like a dirty thing.

In the photo of the resume at the top, there is Sousuke Araki with a dull expression.

Opposite her, an uncle with a national character face who was old enough to be her father lowered his head and said reluctantly: "Report to the section chief, according to the repeated confirmation of surveillance records, only this man has been in and out of that alley within an hour...... Of course, this is just a preliminary speculation on the part of the information group......"

"Hmph, unlike ordinary ghosts and resentful spirits, the human-faced dog is an urban legend and belongs to the category of [weird]."

The human-faced dog, which appeared in the early 90s, has been widely sighted throughout Japan, and it has not been confirmed whether it is one or more.

When encountering humans, they will sneer disdainfully, say things like "what are you afraid of", "whatever you want", "noisy to death", "it turned out to be humans", and then attack.

And the human-faced dog, which had been silent for many years, suddenly became popular again on the Internet for some reason recently, and it became more and more popular.

Sightings were recorded all over Tokyo.

As if remembering something, Mochizuki Ayano's eyes gradually deepened.

"The last time the weird was sealed was traced back to the [Hyakmu Ghost]. At that time, the ninth lesson exposed the scandals of many celebrities and consortia in a row, seized the high ground of public opinion, and then invited a number of experts to come out and publish papers to refute the rumors, reducing its sense of existence in people's hearts, and finally through a number of soul slayers to attack it head-on, it was permanently sealed to a certain extent. ”

The weirdness that grows with the negative emotions of the human heart as nutrients is extremely difficult to completely eliminate, and most of them are dealt with in the form of seals.

Whether it is a resentful spirit or a strange spirit, only when it becomes a Buddha or is eliminated with strong emotions, its obsession may be aggregated into an item with a strange function, also known as a "resentful object".

The [resentment] left in the alley is ironclad evidence of the demise of the human-faced dog.

"Iwata Takekun, ask someone from the information team to give me another thorough investigation...... As for this kid, he can't easily rule out suspicion, and send someone to stare at him for a while...... Check all possibilities and be sure to find out what makes the weird die! ”

Mochizuki Ayano said with burning eyes.

Lesson 9 has only been established for more than ten years, and with the exponential increase in supernatural cases in recent years, the accumulation of weak Lesson 9 is as powerless as a defenseless baby in the face of these abyss-like unknown existences.

Being able to directly eliminate strange beings is of great significance to Lesson 9, and even to Japan as a whole.

"Yes."

The uncle with the name "Iwata Takeshi" immediately bowed respectfully.
