Chapter 103: The Old Man Can't Afford It

Entrance to the memorial.

This time, it was the turn of the omniscient truth to guard the memorial, just in time for the Tokyo Necromantic Transcendents Exchange Conference, and they naturally took on the security work.

An omniscient member of truth wearing a monkey-faced pendant stands at the entrance, verifying invitations.

The team is in good order.

So soon it was the turn of the two of Musashino.

"Please show your invitation."

The person in charge has short hair and looks very honest.

Hey?

Musashino recognized him:

This is Secretary Matsumoto who followed Uchiki Kikunosuke to Kiyose Fujimi Hospital that day and wanted to dig into a corner, but was persuaded to retire by the perimeter defense system.

Of course.

Matsumoto is no longer a secretary at the moment.

That day, he did not explain the situation to Uchi completely about the investigation of the old site of his homeland, which caused Uchi to almost fail to backtrack and make a fool of himself in public.

When he returned, he was fired.

He temporarily stepped down from his post to work at the grassroots level of the church.

Matsumoto was actually convinced by this result.

Because it's not just a matter of making a fool of yourself.

The more critical reasons are:

Transcendentals, especially those as high-profile as Bishop Uchi, cannot be free to expose their vulnerable side in public.

In the living area, there are many eyeliners of wasteland.

If they see someone who was once strong, they suddenly disappear......

It will swarm like a hungry wolf!

Uchi-sama's slight punishment on me must have been for this deeper reason, so that I could really learn my lesson!

It definitely won't be because he has a good face!

Nao Immortal handed over the invitation:

"Here."

Matsumoto opened gently.

Hiss –

Seeing the International Transcendental Law Enforcement Organization, he couldn't help but recall the terrible encounter in Kiyose Town that day, and his hands trembled.

Nao Immortal Hara noticed the change in his expression:

"Uh..... do you have any questions?"

"Ah, it's fine."

After Matsumoto checked the invitation, he took out a hand-held testing instrument with a small needle tip:

"I'm sorry.

"A quick blood sample screening is required before entering the site to make sure it's not a wasteland disguised as a human."

Musashino swept his eyes.

This kind of detector is also available in IPO, and the accuracy is actually not high.

Otherwise, there would have been no wasteland to ambush in the survival area.

I guess it's just a symbolic process.

Anyway, there is Asano in the memorial hall now, and Uchiki Kikunosuke is sitting in the formation, so there shouldn't be any wasteland that dares to take such a big risk to sneak in.

Nao Immortal Hara stretched out her finger very cooperatively.

Syllable~

A drop of blood is raised, and the indicator light is green.

"No problem."

Matsumoto gestured to an OK and signaled for her to pass.

At the same time, he used his energy to evaporate the blood inside, and threw the disposable blood sample collector into the waste box:

"Your blood sample has been destroyed, rest assured."

It's quite rigorous.

When it was Musashino's turn, the indicator light naturally showed green as well.

"Please come in."

Matsumoto threw the collector in again, but Musashino had barely taken a few steps.

boom——

Suddenly, there was a loud bang from inside the waste box.

The entire box exploded without warning, and the blinding tongues of fire burst up, startling the people in the queue behind.

Musashino raised an eyebrow.

Won't it ......

Is it because of my blood sample?

With the increase in strength, the nature of his blood has also changed a lot from before, even if it is just a small drop, there is a high amount of energy flowing in it.

Blow up a detector......

It's also entirely possible.

No way.

My power seems to be getting more and more nowhere to put it......

"Get a fire extinguisher!"

The staff next to him quickly brought a fire extinguisher, and it took five minutes to extinguish the fire.

"Wait a minute."

Matsumoto hurriedly called the people nearby.

He rummaged through the blackened equipment, and soon found an unrecognizable sampler, which had just been blown up.

Whew-

"It should ...... Is it just a short circuit in the instrument? ”

He breathed a sigh of relief and didn't pay much attention to the episode.

When you enter the memorial hall, the first thing that catches your eye is a large lobby with a white marble statue of Tomo Asano in the center.

The receptionists in charge of guidance extend their hands:

"You can pay tribute to Mr. Asano."

This is not a hard and fast rule for memorials.

It's just that people have become accustomed to bowing deeply to this statue of Tomo Asano, showing respect.

The residents of the living area really respect him from the bottom of their hearts.

Especially the necromantic transcendents, they all take Asano as the object of admiration.

Sure enough, all the people who passed by took the initiative to stop in front of the statue and bow 90 degrees.

Nao Immortal Hara dragged Musashino over.

"Wow-"

Her eyes lit up with excitement.

It is worthy of being the previous ghost master of the Tokyo ghosts, and the most famous pillar-level powerhouse in the survival area, who is so handsome and powerful.

"Musashi-san......

"When do you think we will be as strong as Senpao Asano!"

Ahh

At this time, Nao Immortal Hara had already pressed his chest and saluted solemnly.

Musashino felt that he should also pay tribute to the old gentleman.

Although my strength ......

It's stronger than Mr. Asano.

But there are some things that are not necessarily related to strength, such as Asano Chi who dares to abandon everything and fight hard for the survival zone.

Musashino once envisioned such a question:

If one day, the Tokyo Survival Zone is facing a huge crisis.

He had to risk his life to be able to solve the problem, what would he choose?

The answer is clear:

For the better tomorrow of the living area, for the stability and harmony of human society, and for the protection of every smiling face here......

Hurry up, of course!

If you stay in the green mountains and don't worry about running out of firewood, I will definitely come back to avenge them in the future.

Thinking of this, he admired Asano even more!

Musashino straightened his back, straightened his collar, and prepared to bow solemnly.

He just lowered his head.

Thundered~~

The statue in front of it suddenly shook slightly.

kuang——

Before Musashino could bend down, the statue fell sideways and fell heavily to the ground.

The loud noise alarmed everyone.

"Huh?"

Musashino frowned.

Looking at the feeling when the statue falls to the ground, it doesn't seem to be made of marble.

The receptionist was taken aback.

But she soon came over:

"I'm sorry.

"Because the previous marble statue was a little damaged, we sent it for repair, so we temporarily replaced it with foam bricks with imitation stone texture.

"Maybe it's because the texture is too light, so the base is unstable......"

The receptionist was also puzzled.

It shouldn't be, there's no wind in the hall, so even if it's lighter, it shouldn't just fall?

She lifted the statue on her shoulders and straightened it again.

Confirming that the base is stable, she smiled:

"Whew—

"Sir, this time it should be fine."

Musashino nodded: "I'm sorry for you." ”

He rearranged his collar and bowed to the statue of Tomo Asano again.

kuang——

Once again, the statue fell to the ground.

Syllable!

This time, Tomo Asano's statue not only fell, but also cracked a lot on the surface, and the filled foam ball slipped out of it.

It's completely cracked.
