27. Camouflage – Peeler

The atmosphere in the ward couldn't help but be a little weird.

The three of them are all people who know Aono, and they are in a state of knowing each other but not very familiar with each other.

There are a lot of questions, but I don't know how to speak.

Although Kanda Yukie is fierce to many people, he has a special attitude towards Kinoshita Kiyomi.

Because she clearly remembered that she had opened her eyes from a coma.

The first person I saw was this police officer with a serious face.

Yukie Kanda, who lost her parents, couldn't hold back the grief in her heart and cried.

Kinoshita Kiyomi, on the other hand, silently took her into his arms and let tears wet her clothes.

It brings some comfort to Kanda Yukie.

Later, Kinoshita Kiyomi often called to condole, and even took the initiative to come to the door to have dinner with her.

How can a girl forget this kindness and care?

In a way, she sees Kinoshita Kiyomi as a substitute for her mother.

It's no wonder that this gentle attitude is so subdued.

But she was bumped into by Officer Kinoshita, and she came to find Aono.

Kanda Yukie felt weird in her heart.

After all, she and Aono are now in an extremely strange state of cohabitation! - Even if Aono hasn't actually moved in yet.

Besides, Kanda Yukie wanted Aono to help her get revenge.

If Kinoshita Kiyomi knew about this illegal behavior......

Therefore, Kanda Yukie is in a complicated mood, and he can't even speak properly.

"Aono-kun, you should have promised me, right?"

Hitomi Amamiya spoke in a serious tone and reminded Aono again.

"It's not what you think!"

Aono's face was full of righteousness.

"I'm just living with her."

"Uh-huh???"

Something is wrong!

The three of them made the same sound in unison.

You...... How did you say it!

Kanda Yukie turned her head to look at Kiyomi Kinoshita, hoping that she would not misunderstand.

"Here's the thing......"

Aono explained to them.

Roughly speaking, Kanda Yuki's house has a good location and the rent is cheap, so it makes sense for him to rent it in.

"You don't really think I'm going to take a fancy to her, do you?"

"Wouldn't it? No way? No way? ”

Amamiya Hitomi and Kinoshita Kiyomi take a look at Kanda Yukie.

Although it is a bit hurtful to say this, this fierce little girl does not have much feminine charm.

It's not mature yet!

Kanda Yuki's face is almost darker than coal.

This explanation did not reveal the employment relationship between the two, and it also dispelled Officer Kinoshita's idea of crookedness, but why did she sound so unhappy?

Hum! I'm kind enough to come and see you!

"Of course, she's still a good girl, but she's usually a little fierce."

"If I want someone else, I'd rather live alone."

Aono continued.

Hum......

Kanda Yukie's mood suddenly relaxed.

It seems that you are not so unconscientious!

Kinoshita Kiyomi can understand why Aono and Kanda Yukie live together.

As a survivor of that ritual, you must need someone who can understand you, right?

Hitomi Amamiya reluctantly accepted this statement.

After all, Aono was still wounded, and after a few words of conversation, the three of them said goodbye one after another.

- Hitomi Amamiya originally wanted to stay and continue to take care of him, but he didn't rest well last night and was persuaded by Aono to go back to sleep.

Aono was the only one in the ward.

He opened the panel to see what he had learned from last night.

[Destroy the spirit of the 'Dough Peeler', experience +10!] 】

[Free low-level resentful spirits, experience +4!] 】

[Free low-level resentful spirits, experience +4!] 】

[Free the Intermediate Resentful Spirit, Experience +8!] 】

[Free low-level resentful spirits, experience +4!] 】

......

At first, Aono didn't expect that he would be able to gain experience points from fighting the Dough Peeler.

The "Dough Peeler" itself doesn't give him much experience, which is the amount of experience he can eat a mid-level wraith.

But the "Liberation of Resentful Souls" in the back, all of them added up, and they actually gave him nearly 30 points of experience.

In other words, Aono is now 4 XP away from being promoted to LV3.

And as far as Aono's understanding.

The resentful spirits are the beings who surround the face-peelers.

Because of the great pain he endured before his death, he was also stripped off his face and brought to his side, generating boundless resentment, a kind of thing.

Unlike the Wraiths, they are trapped in the body of the Skinner.

Only against him.

If you don't cut him with a thousand knives, crush his bones and scatter ashes, it will be difficult to get out.

- It is not possible to say that the person who peels the dough will suffer from a terminal illness, which is also related to this.

And Qingye gave them such an opportunity.

So the experience points were counted on his head.

"Surprise."

Aono pulled the panel down, remembering that last night, there seemed to be something else.

[Disguise - Mask Peeler: You have destroyed the spirit of the Mask Peeler, and you can temporarily disguise the posture of the "Mask Peeler"]

【Available time: 30 minutes】

[Effect after use: Strength +0!] Agility +0! Constitution +0! Intelligence (Inspiration) -10! Charm +0! Sanity -40! 】

[Unlock Skill: Surgical LV7, Stealth LV5!] 】

[Unlock Trait: Night Vision, Resentment!] 】

[Evaluation: Want to experience ...... What does it feel like to be a psychopathic murderer? 】

Aono was surprised.

He originally thought that this [disguise] would not have much effect except that it would make him look at him less when he walked on the street.

Looking at it now, isn't this a character card?

"That's too much of a chicken....."

Qingye is speechless, after using the disguise, the attribute does not increase but falls, is this looking for weakening by himself?

But when he looked at the [Surgical LV7] and [Stealth LV5] in his skills, his heart suddenly moved.

Don't......

Under the manipulation of the mind, the disguise takes effect.

Aono's mind seemed to suddenly have a period of knowledge and experience that he had never had before.

I have to say that the dough peeler, as the original surgeon, is very qualified.

Normal people really can't do this kind of operation like peeling off people's faces.

[Surgical LV7], it is not unreasonable.

At the same time, his breathing involuntarily became heavy, his emotions began to be irritable and excited, and he wanted to punch twice when he saw anything, full of desire to destroy.

This is the effect of the lower sanity and the trait [Resentment].

But Aono's actual mood is actually very calm, just like usual.

This irritability was all subconsciously disguised by him.

Unable to bring him real emotional swings.

It seems that the priority of [calm] is unimaginably high.

Aono was tasteless for a moment.

Exit camouflage.

[Unlock the skill 'Surgical LV3'!] 】

【Unlock Skill 'Stealth LV2'!】

Sure enough!

Aono's heart perked.

Since you can unlock skills temporarily, why can't you just learn them?

He just tried it, but he didn't expect it to be successful.

And it's directly the skills of LV3 and LV2, which is a real surprise!

As for the traits, it's more like a passive existence, and it's understandable that it can't be brought to him.

Aono smiled.

Where is this chicken ribs, it is clearly a miracle skill!
