Chapter 70: Shiho Miyano's Fear
The puppet follows the drone defenselessly, not knowing what the big "X" under its feet means.
And when the puppet was finally on top of that "X", Toru Amamiya put down the remote control in his hand and took off his coat.
Although theoretically...... Just draw the puppet to the trap and it can be solved very easily.
But actually...... Is it really that easy?
Zenta made this doll because his child was hit and killed by four college students who came to the town for a trip in an accident.
Although he received a lot of compensation for the incident, Zenta still hates the four college students who killed their children.
Even because of anger...... He also hated the town that was packaging and advertising itself in order to attract tourists.
There are also the residents of the town who deliberately downplayed the death of Zenta's child for their own interests, in order to avoid affecting the reputation of this tourist town and affecting the play of tourists.
If it's just a puppet that can be discharged, but not difficult to destroy, how can Zenta get revenge on those he wants to get revenge on?
Before starting this battle, Kotoko Iwanaga had been very keenly aware of this.
In the long history of the development of dolls, the puppets that have evolved in the long history have gradually added many different functions.
For example, cursed dolls.
Then put a person's birthday, hair and flesh, or even just a note with someone's name written on it.
With a certain cast spell, the fate of the puppet will be closely linked to the cursed person.
The puppet has a broken hand, the cursed also has a broken hand, the puppet has a broken foot, and the cursed person also has a broken foot.
Voodoo dolls, nailhead seven arrows books, are all similar things.
Zenta's purpose in making such a doll is not just to influence the income of the town's residents through it.
What he wanted to do was to make this puppet arouse the anger of the townspeople, and in the end, the townspeople tried their best to kill them.
And in the end...... This puppet, which is both a marionette and a cursed puppet, will turn the damage given to it by the townspeople into damage to the four college students.
And then on a certain day...... Wait until the townspeople learn that the four college students died mysteriously, and in exactly the same way they destroyed the characters.
The townspeople will also have a heavy shadow in their hearts because of this bizarre cause and effect.
It's a multiple-killing approach.
Zenta did not get into sin for murder, and he did not have to bear that heavy psychological burden, so he kept his conscience.
Four college students who caused the death of his child paid for their lives.
The people of the town will also be burdened with the lives of these four college students, and they will be in fear all day until they finally die.
So...... In order to avoid the destruction of the dolls, the four college students died because of the curse.
Now all Amamiya has to do is to make sure that this special trap can trap the puppet.
If this trap doesn't work, then Toru Amamiya will subdue it himself.
And then before destroying the puppet completely...... Erase all objects related to the four college students kept in the dolls, and remove the curse from the source.
Toru Amamiya walks in front of the trap, prepares himself, and is ready to go.
The youkai saw the moment and pulled the trap.
As a monster whose main means of attack is discharge, it is natural to deal with it in the same way as an electric current.
The planks on top of the trap were shattered by the destruction of several small monsters that could escape to the ground, and the puppets fell into the pit, and the other prepared little monsters quickly covered the top of the hole.
The radius of the holes in the wire mesh was not even large enough for the puppets to stretch out one of their hands, and the youkai cheered and cheered for their victory.
The unsane puppet tried to break out of the trap according to its own established logic, but the copper net had just been lowered and already fixed by the quick-eyed youkai.
The puppet emits electricity at everything around it, but it doesn't get the slightest effect.
All the current was drained away by the copper mesh, and there was not the slightest leakage, because it was not just the copper mesh placed above the sacrifice.
The whole trap is actually a cage made of copper metal.
These copper metals are connected to the ground on all sides, forming an almost perfect equipotential surface.
On the ground where all the electricity was directed, Toru Amamiya stepped forward and looked at the struggling puppet, a smile on the corner of his mouth.
This is the Faraday cage, a weapon to prevent electric current attacks.
Even a monk who is good at thunder is unable to control the flow of electricity to the centimeter.
And at this time, in the face of these monks who are good at thunder law, only one metal mesh that is fine enough and connected to the ground on all sides can block most of their attacks.
In Toru Amamiya's previous life, there were many cultivators who were only good at one type of spell and suffered because of this.
Locked up in an iron house all day long, all means are met with countermeasures, and the only chance to talk to outsiders every day is to wait for interrogation from the enemy.
So many practitioners...... Only a small number of people who are skilled in almost all aspects of spells and are proficient in technology are still on the long run, barely preserving their freedom.
And although this unique doll is inlaid with strange meteorites from outside the earth, it is obvious that its star is also a weird person, and its ability is no stronger than that of Toru Amamiya's partners in his previous life.
Thinking of this, Toru Amamiya suddenly had some silence.
Now...... Is it even my turn to subdue others with this trick that once made my friends who didn't go to school suffer a lot?
But...... This feeling of using your brain to solve the enemy, rather than using your hands, doesn't seem bad either?
"The next thing is to wait for this foolish puppet to exhaust all the electrical energy in his body."
"It doesn't discharge electricity in the ocean 24 hours a day, which proves that it has a certain limit to what it can do."
"Next...... Just wait. ”
Toru Amamiya is very optimistic and even plans to spend a few days in this town.
Anyway, I've been completely placed by the organization recently, so there shouldn't be anything to worry about in the organization, right?
-------------------------------------
Belonging to the research base of the organization, Shiho Miyano sat in his place with some irritability.
The light brown liquid in the coffee cup with the cute cat's head had already cooled, but its owner didn't care.
Shiho Miyano looked at the calendar on the wall, counting over and over again from the last time he saw his sister to today.
Myself...... It's been a long time since I've been in touch with my sister.
Although I rarely met my sister in the past because of research, Shiho Miyano usually contacted and communicated with her sister on her mobile phone.
But now my sister seems to have disappeared suddenly, and she can't even get through on the phone......
Shiho Miyano, who is in the dark organization, knows that his sister is in an increasingly embarrassing position in the organization because she was brought into the undercover agency.
This sudden loss of contact inevitably brought her some bad associations.
The terrifying fantasy that lingered in her mind for a long time made her almost faint.
Shiho Miyano bit his lip and pressed Toru Amamiya's number on his phone, and quickly deleted it for some reason.
Toru Amamiya never cheats on every friend he confesses, and this is something Shiho Miyano has always known.
She wanted to ask him about her sister, but somehow she was scared.
It's like if you press the number and ask that question, you will definitely get something that is absolutely unacceptable to you.
