"I'm tired."

With those transcendents, he sent various transcendent samples from Kyoto Castle to the Occult Research Zone in Mt. Takao, and even though the Intelligence Division was only responsible for vigilance and recording, it was also very tiring.

The land that has been affected by the power of the Ibaraki boy is nothing, and the remnants of the transcendents scattered in Nijo Castle and the surrounding urban areas can still grit their teeth and hold back, but the countless red leaves really can't help it.

Those occult researchers were idiots, and they even wanted them to transport all the autumn leaves back in Kyoto City, if it weren't for the fact that this request was too unreasonable for the higher authorities to stop it, I'm afraid they would have gone crazy by now.

Because you have been affected by supernatural powers, you have to recycle and study?

Have you ever wondered how many autumn leaves there are in Kyoto Castle?

Obviously, it was hard to get off work after working all day until midnight, but thinking of the negotiation with those unkind guys just now, Ayako Todai suddenly felt that her liver hurt again.

"I don't want to deal with these guys next time I kill them!"

Viciously baring her teeth at the air in front of her, she lay limply on the car seat.

"I just want to make a salted fish, why is it so difficult......"

It's hard to believe that this kind of remark could come from the head of the Intelligence Division of the Special Division, although she occasionally behaves a little out of tune in normal times, but she has always done her best when carrying out her tasks.

"The handling of the three artifacts, the follow-up response of the Qingxing lantern, and now there are more Momiji Hunting, Bai Ze, Wine Swallowing Boy, Ibaraki Boy, ah, and the regional reconnaissance ...... of the big country and small world."

Holding her hand and counting the work that the intelligence department might be assigned next, the more she counted, the more weak her expression became, until she found that ten fingers were not enough to count, so she sighed and chose to give up.

Every time there is a supernatural event, the intelligence department is the first to start busy, especially big events, the intelligence department is always indispensable, this time four new ghost kings appear at once, and there is a huge amount of information they bring......

Anyway, no matter how Todai Ayako thinks about it, she feels like she can't stop for a long time in the future.

"Damn, those ghost kings!" Ayako Todai gritted her teeth and straightened up.

I was about to scold again, but she was suddenly stunned.

Because she straightened up, her face was facing the rearview mirror in the car, and she could see her expression through the rearview mirror-

Not the gnashing of teeth she imagined, but the cruel smile of excitement.

She was excited by the power of those ghost kings.

"Smack!"

Ayako Todai suddenly slapped herself hard.

"That's enough, enough is enough... If you continue like this, how are you going to face Asako? ”

The slap marks on her face were as bright red as if she was oozing blood, and Ayako Todai gasped for breath, and the memories that were sealed in the depths of her mind and did not want to touch them came back, and the chagrin and guilt made Ayako Todai's face pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Cold sweat kept sliding down his forehead, his face was as pale as snow on one side, and there was a scarlet slap mark on the other side of his face.

A pedestrian who happened to pass in front of her car inadvertently swept into the car and suddenly screamed in fright.

"Hell!"

The deep night and the contrast of skin color, the slap print looks like a hollowed-out blood hole, coupled with the intensifying monster incident, it is no wonder that this passerby's first reaction will be to encounter a ghost.

The sudden scream made Ayako Todai look up, and her cruel expression suddenly turned the scream into a scream.

What's going on? Ayako Todai is still confused.

The voice of the man who had fallen backwards on the ground kept coming to her ears, and so did his expression.

Ayako Todai's eyes slowly widened.

Was he shouting for help?

What the hell is he talking about? Is it me?

Why did he run away?

And his expression, why... So people want to cut him?

"Ho——! Ho——! ”

Ayako Todai grinned, unable to tell whether she was crying or laughing, only her pupils narrowed and tightened.

"Die!"

As if it had been said countless times, it came out of her mouth with great fluidity.

The right hand reached directly in the direction of the car door—

Hidden in the illegally modified car door was a small knife of hers.

She's going to chop that bastard to pieces!

"Toot ——! Toot ——! ”

The phone rang suddenly, but her movements did not stop in the slightest, she was now just a monster governed by instinct.

"Toot ——! Toot ——! ”

It rang for several seconds in a row, and just when Ayako Todai was about to pull out the knife, the phone was automatically connected-

There is only one contact that she has set up to auto-answer.

"Moximoxi! Sister, are you there? ”

Some coquettish voices came from the phone, and they seemed to be a little embarrassed and unspeakable.

It was a voice she knew and couldn't be more familiar.

Todai Ayako's right hand suddenly stiffened.

"Asako?"

"Yes, sister, haven't you come back yet?"

"Boom!" Kotaito was pushed back into the car door, and Ayako Todai's facial muscles began to move.

The pupils, which had almost condensed a little, widened again, and the ghost-like expression also relaxed, but it was still a little stiff.

"Sister, what's wrong? Did something happen? ”

Perhaps because there was no reply here, coupled with the metallic sound just now, there was a suspicious inquiry on the other end of the phone.

Ayako Todai's expression gradually returned to normal.

"Nothing happened, I just got off work, and I'm still on my way back."

"Huh?! It's early in the morning, right?! ”

"Because of the events in Kyoto, isn't it natural for me to be a little tired as a section chief?"

"My sister is amazing!"

"Asako, did you call me for something?"

"Well, there's something—" The voice on the other end of the line seemed hesitant.

"What's wrong?"

"I think..."Asako Todai said with a pause, and then her voice suddenly became louder: "Sister, let's go to the movies?!" ”

"Watching a movie?"

Todai Ayako was stunned, and subconsciously swept the dark night outside the car window, in the early hours of the morning... Watching a movie?

She suddenly didn't know how to complain about her sister, why did she have such a whimsy?

"I ......"

Suddenly, she seemed to think of what she was expecting and what had just happened through her sister's voice.

Isn't it really time to relax?

"That's ......"

Just as she wanted to agree, she saw the bright red palm print on her face in the rearview mirror again, and the words she said changed: "It's too late, Asako, you never slept so late before!" Go to bed! ”

"Well, I forgot the time, sorry sister."

Asako's muffled voice came from the phone, and at this moment she suddenly didn't know whether she was regretting or breathing a sigh of relief.

Hanging up the phone, Ayako Todai breathed a long sigh of relief, she looked ahead, the man had long since run away.

To avoid trouble, she drove the car a little farther away.

Todai Ayako was lying in the car with her eyes open, and if it weren't for the sudden change in her face from time to time, I'm afraid she would really be like a dead person.

She lay in the car for a long time, and only after she expected that Asako was asleep did she ignite the engine again.

Back in her small apartment, she quietly pushed open the door of Asako's room, and Asako was already asleep.

Looking at her sister, who is not so elegant in sleep, Ayako Todai's eyes are gentle.

"Good night, Asako."
