Chapter 125: Tokyo Psykers in Action (1/3)
"Ma'am, have you ever seen a magic show?"
Su Qi asked.
"When I was a kid with magic, I liked people who could conjure rabbits out of hats and pigeons."
"And now"
"It's more ordinary now, maybe I'll be more skilled in magic than them."
Shanruzod smiled, and at the same time he already understood what Su Qi meant, which was a common technique in the mysterious circle.
"We're going to reveal the secret"
"That's right, reveal."
The corners of Su Qi's mouth curled slightly.
"The performance of the decapitation cycle is like a magic trick, and the biggest charm of magic for the audience is that it is mysterious and unknowable, and once this unknowability is debunked"
That's right, Su Qi wants to be a demolitionist.
"How can you help with this?"
"Some channels, channels that can achieve the same exposure as the decapitation cycle."
"This is not difficult, it is not easy to let the video station secretly operate and suppress the popularity of the decapitation loop video, because it is not only published on domestic video stations.
But if you want to find a channel with similar traffic, we can spend money to give the second and third places to the fourth place to publish our videos. β
Money ability is omnipotent.
"So, can I apply to the club for reimbursement of operational expenses?"
"You can submit an application to Director Alice, and the director shouldn't care, but it will be sent to the headquarters, and it may not be possible to approve it."
ββ
Su Qi was speechless.
"We only have one day."
"It generally takes half a month for the headquarters to approve."
The funds of the black door are obviously not sufficient enough for the directors to have a quota at their disposal, and this kind of expenditure has to be reported to the headquarters for half a month for approval.
"The Foundation's operation has not been good in recent years, funds are very tight, the Tokyo Branch's weapons inventory has not been replenished this year, and the price of the Philosopher's Stone has risen again this year."
"So we didn't even have to use the Philosopher's Stone against the Tengu this time"
"You weren't at the meeting a few days ago, and the director said that the new regulations of the headquarters are to deal with the ghosts and gods of the abyss layer and above, and try to avoid using the Philosopher's Stone."
ββ
The ghost knows what kind of mood Su Qi is in now.
This benefit of the Black Gate Club is not good.
No wonder the collector Mr. Andersen, on his side, wants to make money from his own auctions.
"You can apply for it first."
Yamaruzod suggested.
Su Qi nodded, went to the side to call Director Alice, and said his idea.
"Spend money to smash the list, it's okay, advance the honorarium for this file, I can use it directly, hand over the reimbursement list, if it can be approved, and then make it back."
That's Director Alice's answer.
Su Qi thought about it and agreed.
That's it.
The night is getting darker.
Within the area of Ikebukuro Ichiban Street, which was cordoned off by Yamaruzode, humans have been safely sent out.
Only the terrifying tengu is left wandering.
After Andersen returned, the three also left Ikebukuro.
There is a blockade of Yamaruzod, and at least tonight can be spent safely, but I don't know if the tengu will still appear here tomorrow night.
The next day.
Wednesday, tonight, is the time for the decapitation loop to be livestreamed.
Su Qi went to school as usual during the day.
During my lunch break, I found the senior class.
"Chairman Tsuda didn't come to school today."
"Didn't come to school"
Su Qi was stunned.
"I heard that I was sick and took sick leave."
ββ
Su Qi's face sank.
"Okay, I got it."
At this coincidental point in time, what he didn't want happened.
Su Qi was thinking about this in his heart.
It wasn't until school that I got involved in discussing the cultural festival for a while, and then I went to the Black Gate Club.
Today is a rare time for all of us to be there.
Because to catch the decapitation cycle.
Mr. Green, who went to Kanagawa two days ago to investigate the sΓ©ance, has come back for the time being.
Su Qi chatted with Mr. Green for a while, communicated his plan, and needed Mr. Green's help.
A few people were before leaving.
Director Alice found a small flag of martial arts out of nowhere, probably left by the former Tokyo branch, and told a few people very casually
"All the kings are prosperous."
Su Qi looked at his heart and said, Boss Lori's very ceremonial appearance is quite interesting.
Night, Ikebukuro.
The Three Story Kings of the Black Gate and Su Qi appeared in the crowd at the entrance of Ikebukuro Station.
Not far away.
There were a few people dressed strangely.
A monk in a robe, a shrine maiden in a shrine maiden costume.
Even in a place like Ikebukuro, it's a little weird, and many passers-by take pictures and think it's going on.
"Hey, aren't they ashamed of that?"
Su Qi couldn't help but say.
"For some psykers, attire seems to be very important, it helps them perceive the power of ghosts and gods, just like our rituals."
Andersen said as he rubbed his cane.
The rituals of the mystic are relatively regular, and they are generally the kind of ritual formations.
The rituals of the Secret Covenant are relatively rough, and they are not limited to forms, formations, costumes, sacrifices, prayers, and utensils.
These overalls often worn by shrine maiden monks can be said to be a ritual.
According to the psionics themselves, it is these magic weapons that can increase their own psionic energy.
Of course, not all psionics have this option, for example, among the dozen or so psionics, Su Qi saw Tomoya Tuyumen, dressed normally, but the clothes were bulging, and the Shishen Ball seemed to bring a lot.
"It seems like they're all young people"
Su Qi looked at it at a glance, and all of them were young faces.
"Among the older generation, only the abbot of Yujing Temple is secretly in charge."
Every time you act, the younger generation explores the way.
This is the traditional art of the psyker.
Ten years ago, the Ghost King was born, and after the night walk of the hundred ghosts, the age distribution of Tokyo's spiritual abilities is relatively deformed.
The young and old sides account for a significant proportion.
Intermediate faults.
There were too many young people who died back then.
And the demon slaying line is an industry that is indispensable for experience and physical strength, and the young have poor experience and the old physical strength can't keep up.
Now the few remaining orthodox young and middle-aged spiritual abilities are all the roles of the lord of one side.
For example, the chief priest of Kamigawa of Fuzu Shrine, and the lord of the Yin and Yang Liao of the Tsuchiomon Shrine.
Many of the rest were outsiders recruited later, and they had been in the gods for a short time, and in terms of spiritual energy and experience, they were not as good as the younger generation.
"Let's go get in touch with them."
Andersen said, taking Su Qi up.
"Tomoya, you really saw the Ghost King"
Hieda Shrine shrine maiden Ruri asked with interest.
Ruri,The shrine maiden of the orthodox incense inheritance of Hieda Shrine,Her father is a great official.γ
She and Mayumi Kamigawa have similar qualifications, but her father is not as doting as Kamigawa's father, so she has a deep understanding of the removal of spirits.
