Chapter 5 is behind you
"Suddenly it's raining......"
Rainwater sliced across the open umbrella and smashed on the slippery ground.
The bad conversation with Uehara that he heard during the day made Li Wu a little concerned.
First, out of the morality of his classmates, if it was blackmail or violence, he felt that he could not sit idly by; Second, he was also a little curious about Masaki Uehara, who was holding the title of [Owner of Summoning Physique].
The completion of [Exorcist] has increased from 3% to 3.5%, and no matter how you think about it, it has nothing to do with killing the Hidden Woman, so if you speculate like this, it may be useful to increase Uehara's favorability.
Out of an abundance of caution, he also brought the enchanted stationery he had made from researching his abilities last night.
Be prepared! With a brisk heart, he stepped over the small puddle in front of him.
Masaki Uehara ran and stepped over the puddle in front of him, letting the splash of muddy water stain his pants.
The location is an unknown dark alley.
The alley at night was even darker and darker, and the sound of his footsteps seemed to be amplified by some unknown force, and it reverberated in the tortuous body of the dark alley like thunder.
Fear urged him to run forward, even though he should have run out of the short alley a long time ago. The familiar road now seemed to turn into the intestines of an unknown creature, and even the rain dripping on his body gave him a disgusting sticky feeling.
However, it is still necessary to run forward.
Because the voice of the pursuer sounded again behind him.
"Wave-wave-"
It is reminiscent of the crisp sound of clogs stepping on the ground.
For the original at this moment, it is tantamount to the voice of asking for life.
The moment I heard this voice, I felt a sharp pain in my body like a protest, and my vision seemed to be covered with a red filter, and I couldn't help but reach out and wipe it, touching the warm liquid.
The pain in his nerves forced him to fall to the ground, and he could only turn his head slightly to look behind him.
The eye catches the eye of a gray, misty humanoid figure with no hands, and a pair of clogs at the ends of its narrow lower limbs, which make a sound of collision with the ground. In the place where the face is usually located, there is only a pair of open mouths, revealing Bai Sensen's teeth.
A child-like voice squeezed out from between the teeth: "Behind youβ"
"I'm behind you, too, Mr. Bo."
The gray figure froze for a moment, like an actor who noticed a mistake in the middle of a stage play, and it stopped speaking as if nothing had happened, and continued to walk forward on the clogs.
"So this solution really works...... But I can't just let you go! β
Li Wu raised the compass in his hand, and a crimson light appeared on the tip.
Exorcise evil spirits and drive away evil, and demons are easy to dispel.
He threw the righteous stationery in a throwing knife stance, slicing a silver arc through the air and striking the monster in the back of the heart.
The same scene that happened in the Hidden Woman repeats itself: the vein-like lines envelop the gray humanoid's body, igniting flames where they were hit, and the monster scatters into ashes.
The compass fell to the ground, and he was about to pick it up, but he saw Uehara struggling to stand up on the ground.
"Is it Li Wu? Thank you for saving me, I should say a second time. β
Hearing this, Li Wu couldn't help but ask, "You don't seem to be surprised?" β
When he came to this place, he didn't see any sign of the bad guys, only Masaki Uehara fell to the ground.
There is also a gray humanoid with [Mr. Bo] on his head.
His father was engaged in a profession similar to folklore research, and under his influence, Li Wu had a more or less understanding of all kinds of unpopular myths and strange theories.
Otherwise, you won't see the hidden woman and think of the monster.
Mr. Bo (BetobetoSan) is a monster that follows people who walk alone on the street at night, and is characterized by a "wave, wave" sound that makes a "wave, wave" sound like a wooden sandal on the ground when walking, and this sound causes severe pain to the victim.
The way to get out of this is to walk to the side of the road and say, "Behind you, Mr. Bo".
After personal practice, Li Wu believes that this legend is quite reliable.
Uehara staggered over, and after hearing Li Wu's question, he said softly: "Come out, classmate Li Wu is definitely not a bad person." β
As soon as he finished speaking, several fluffy balls jumped out of his shoulders, and a few mochi-like things with black sesame-like eyes appeared out of nowhere and crawled onto Uehara's head.
It's like a magician in a circus pulling his cloak and revealing a hamster all over his body.
In Li Wu's eyes, it was like an online game suddenly swiping out a bunch of people, and a large number of words appeared.
[Long-haired Spirit], [Delicious-looking Spirit], [Weak Spirit]......
Uehara smiled apologetically, and proposed at this moment: "Li Wu, you also have a question you want to ask, it's still raining, why don't you come to my house and sit down?" Please give me a chance to say thank you. β
His face was still very pale, and there was a sense of terror in his eyes that hung by a thread.
Li Wu understood what he meant after a little thought, but he didn't have any reason to refuse.
By the time we arrived at our residence in Uehara, the rain had stopped.
Surprisingly, it's a premium apartment.
Before entering, Li Wu glanced at his reflection on the glass door.
γExorcist (5% completion)γ
And it went up, as he had speculated.
The dΓ©cor doesn't quite match the luxurious exterior of the apartment, or even austere, with an uninhibited and cold atmosphere.
Uehara led him to sit down on the couch, brought him tea, and returned home with a relaxed look on his face for the first time.
"My uncle bought this apartment, and now I'm living here alone."
Without asking questions such as why his parents were not there, Li Wu quietly waited for the following.
"First of all, classmate Li Wu should have heard the words of senior Otomo and them, ah, it was the group of people who came to me during the day to come over, thank you very much."
He bowed deeply to Li Wu.
"It's just to prevent any violent incidents, after all, we are also classmates, and when it comes to this, what about those people?"
"They ran away when that thing first appeared, and I wanted to run away, but it was coming for me."
Uehara trembled and pressed his right hand, and the white spirits popped up, as if they were about to make a gesture of comfort, but when Li Wu's eyes swept over, he hid behind Uehara in fear.
"As Li Wu has seen, I have been able to see these unusual things since I was a child, ghosts, or things like geismans. They were the ones who told me you were so extraordinary that they would hide inside me because they were afraid of you during the day when we were in the same classroom. β
No wonder I can't see where your spirit physique is manifesting at all.
Li Wu complained in his heart. However, this also explains why Uehara was not surprised that he was able to take out Mr. Bo.
Uehara continued, "Although I suffered a lot when I was a child because I could see the spirit, I also had a grudge with Otomo seniors...... It doesn't matter, but now that I've accepted the fact that there are supernormal things in the world, they usually don't interfere with my well water. β
"But things have changed lately." He nervously lifted the teacup and drank it down, "I can feel the malice against me becoming stronger, like a mischievous phenomenon, frequent nightmares, until today, a monster has launched an attack......"
"Didn't you try to go to a nearby shrine for help?"
Li Wu remembered the [Eighty Thousand Shrine Joint Committee] that Xingchuan had mentioned.
"Shrine? That kind of place is all a lie, I have asked for an amulet a long time ago, and it is useless. β
It seems that the other party does not know much about whether there is a transcendent organization.
After a long silence, Uehara got up and turned into the bedroom, and came out with a savings card in his hand.
He said a little awkwardly: "I said I wanted to express my gratitude, but I really can't think of how to repay the kindness of saving my life." All in all, here's the pocket money I've saved, which may be a little less. β
Uehara's face flushed, and for some high school students at his age, there was a sense of shame when talking about the concepts of money, transactions, and rewards.
Li Wu was not polite, and directly stretched out his hand to take it: "Please go back and invite you to eat takoyaki." By the way, you can ask me for help if you encounter this kind of thing in the future. β
I can't help to shake the active magical girl, although according to her, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the counterpart of the magical girl is not to subdue demons and subdue demons, but with her combat power, Li Wu feels that it is not a problem to physically kill a few ghosts.
Uehara showed a touched look: "Li Wu, you are really a hero like a masked horseman. β
Li Wu turned his head weakly: "It's not for much great reason...... Anyway, did you watch tokusatsu anymore? Which one is your favorite? β
After that, the topic somehow changed to a tokusatsu exchange.
