423 So what's going on
"Well, I've decided. I don't know exactly what the situation is, but I owe a lot of debts to pay, in every sense of the word......"
Sosuke Araki took two mouthfuls of ramen and looked at the courtyard outside the living room, with a sacred and solemn expression on his face: "Moreover, this is a handsome hidden profession "Spirit Killer"! N ranks higher than the previous "Convenience Store Reserve Manager", "Cosplay Delivery Person", and "Murder House Sleep Tester...... Saving People,Hunting Things,Family Business! ”
Immediately, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise obscenely: "In addition to the basic salary of 300,000 yuan and the generous task bonus, you may also be able to get various additional 'thanks' from the client...... Oh hehehe. ”
In his mind, he couldn't help but think, "Ah, Mrs. Kurai, are you haunted by evil spirits again today?" "Araki-kun, the Soul Slayer, I...... My body has become so strange, please check it for me from head to toe, for me...... "Don't worry, watch me ...... you with this ancestral exorcism wand that has not been unsheathed for twenty-three years" and so on.
"Great, when Mr. Araki gets his permission and becomes a full-time soul slayer, I will have more opportunities to learn from him."
Seeing that Sosuke Araki had finally made up his mind to stop his "illegal soul removal career" and engage in legal spirit removal, the little bird on the side also showed a look of eagerness to try.
"For this reason, I have specially brought over the review materials for the written examination for the Soul Removal Exemption Examination that I used before......
"Huh? What do you say, and the pen, the written test?! ”
As if hearing some flood beast, Sousuke Araki's expression suddenly froze on his face, and his forehead was gradually covered with fine beads of sweat.
The countless painful "written test" experiences in my life have come like snowflakes and poured into my mind, making people feel chills all over my body.
"Kengo!! Didn't you say that you just need to go up and show your hand and get rid of a spirit or something? ”
"Aha, have you all eaten, I'll help clean up and sort the garbage by the way......"
Ignoring Araki Zong's questioning gaze, Kengo Yamada, who was on the side, got up with some weakness, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and walked to the open kitchen.
"The monthly exemption assessment is tomorrow, but unfortunately the onlookers are not allowed to watch the assessment process, so I can't witness the heroic appearance of Mr. Araki passing as the first place......
"So, I hope that my summary of the written test study materials and the questions encountered in the exam can help Mr. Araki get familiar with the process!"
Not noticing Sosuke Araki's slightly stiff expression at all, Kotori Yumako's eyes were shining, and he took out a few thick books and notes from the schoolbag on the side and put them on the table.
"When it comes to learning materials, I have a lot of them on my own...... Wait, you said the exam time, tomorrow, tomorrow?! ”
Completely without waiting for him to refuse, with the girl's fragrant body, he already knelt down beside Sosuke Araki and explained seriously.
"If you want to become a qualified soul removalist, you must understand the causes and characteristics of various resentful spirits and ghosts, as well as the allusions and taboos of various gods......
"Rituals in Japan", "Overview of the Development of Shintoism", "New Hundred Monogatari", "Hyakki Night Walk", ......
In these slightly worn books on the table, each page has a new note by the girl Juanxiu, which shows that she also worked hard to obtain the exemption from the spirit removal.
"With Mr. Araki's strength, I will be able to study these books and review materials as soon as possible......
"Multiple choice: Which of the following shrines is dedicated to the 'God of Milk'?"
"So, there are still such gods, I really want to see them......
"Fill in the blanks: What are the four words of the belief concept of the 'Tianxian Shrine' that inherits the worship of male big roots?"
"This kind of low-level shrine, and the face to talk about the concept of faith?"
"Case Question: Please elaborate on how to kill the spirits when encountering both the 'White Striped Sea Monster' and the 'Jellyfish Fireball' at sea......
"Hey, what the hell are these?"
Under the gentle persuasion of the girl, Sosuke Araki's hands trembled, as if he had picked up a hot potato, and he read the heavy books with dense numbers of five characters with a pale face.
"I, Nima, these questions ......"
"Mr. Araki...... Please calm down...... You're going to spoil the book......"
Looking at the two of them sitting together and gradually turning the others into a background board, Ryoma had a cautious look on his face before the second one.
"Hey, these two, when will ......"
"Don't you know? I've noticed ...... since a month ago"
"I heard from the old lady that when Araki-kun suddenly appeared and fainted on that rooftop, the little bird Yushi cried a lot."
The thick sea and land bucket on the side covered his mouth with his hand, and his face was covered with a layer of shadow for some reason.
"I see, is it 'what is going on?'!"
"That's right, it's 'that's it!!"
Since the Hell Gate incident, Kotori Yuma and Sousuke Araki are still getting along as before.
However, the people around him can more or less see that as long as these two people are together, there will be a trace of natural but inexplicable ambiguity in the scene.
The most important thing is that these two people don't seem to be aware of this at all, but others will immediately turn into a background board in embarrassment.
The only one who can break through this subtle atmosphere without being affected is Hanyu Mai, who has a strong enough aura.
It's a pity that after she finished her meal hastily, she went outside the house to carefully inspect the makeover Warring States samurai in the name of studying the "problem of mutual devouring of hidden energy field objects".
"Ahem, that, Araki-kun, please come over for a while......"
But today, a man who can break through this delicate atmosphere has appeared here.
Two days ago, Ryoma stood under the eaves outside the living room, and called out politely and gently, Sosuke Araki, who was about to drown in the ocean of knowledge.
"Oh, it's the second gentleman, don't bother me, I'm studying seriously...... What, is there anything 'important' to discuss with me? ”
As if grasping a life-saving straw, Sosuke Araki was disgusted, but his body stood up honestly and quickly, and he ran for his life outside the living room.
"You are the best friend who knows me best, and you are the only one who can save me from the death vortex called learning at the critical moment......
"Tsk, I said, you are an enviable fellow, you are a spirit slayer, and you are a female high school student, and you also distribute dog food indiscriminately......"
Under the eaves, Ryoma, who had his back to him, began to count someone's "crimes", and his body trembled with anger.
“…… Have you ever considered my feelings about being suspended for more than a month for investigation, not even having money to go to the red light district, and can only rely on 'delivery' to make a living? ”
Hearing his words, even the little bird Yuma Bow in the back room blushed a little.
"What, I didn't, although my dream was indeed ......"
Before Sosuke Araki could defend himself, an evil smile had already appeared on the corners of Ryoma's crooked mouth before Er.
The half-meter-long giant "transfer koi" given by Yutaro Totori was held in his arms at some point, and its huge "O"-shaped mouth opened and closed as it struggled, plundering oxygen with all its might.
