Chapter 23: Trust

Li Wu told the story of meeting the black-robed man on the way to around1 the day before yesterday.

"That's right, the guy you're talking about looks exactly like what I saw!"

After listening to his description of the man's attire, Fujiwara must have seen the same person he had seen.

Hoshikawa Aoi concluded: "In other words, when the cosplay weirdo stayed here, he was possessed by a ghost? ”

"Quite possibly." Miss Miko added, "Judging from the nature of the strange story and the spirits we saw in the battle, the original resentful spirit body should be closely connected to this land, so that it can harness such abundant vitality and turn into butterfly spirits to help, so if you want to leave, it is most likely to possess a passerby." ”

"So, assuming this is the truth, how are we going to find the possessed?"

Li Wu asked as he recalled the text of the [Trainee Necromancer] he had seen above the black-robed man's head at the time, and added, "You know that my abilities are very sharp in terms of perception, and I think that person also does not belong to the [everyday] worldview. ”

The explanation of spiritual ability is so omnipotent, Li Wu decided to use it more in the future.

"Anyway, I'm going to have to find the cosplay freak first."

Hoshikawa Aoi pondered for a while and proposed, "Do you want to disband it first today?" I'm going to ask the members of the countermeasures bureaus in other cities to see if I can help, and I can also check on the matter of Uehara's uncle. ”

"Doesn't it mean that ordinary people don't know about the existence of supernatural things? Is this kind of thing really useful to find magical girls? ”

"Li Wu is too dull, I'm also a female high school student in addition to being a magical girl, and of course the other members have their own superficial identities."

Hoshikawa Aoi puffed up her chest proudly: "Among them are the seniors who worked in the government, and even the female prime minister who resigned a few years ago was a magical girl when she was young. ”

And so the shocking facts were told!

"I agree with Aoi's suggestion." Miss Miko nodded appreciatively, "I'll ask everyone at the shrine to help keep an eye out for you." ”

In the end, Hoshikawa's policy was unanimously approved.

"And what about the remaining two locations? Deal with it tomorrow after school? ”

Li Wu asked.

"Li Wujun's motivation is very good, but the so-called speed is not enough, and we have only preliminarily confirmed the location of the other two places, and I also want to confirm the corresponding strange talk."

"Sister Yuxi's business is to deal with this kind of thing."

After saying goodbye to Fujiwara, the shrine maiden drove the two back to their respective homes.

After Li Wu finished washing, he checked the condition of the text on his head again.

【Exorcist (30% Completion)】

Last time, after killing Fu Fushen, he gained new powers.

That is, in today's battle, it works wonders and destroys the illusion of the Prajna Division.

Visualize the Dharma Body of the King of Enlightenment, calm the mind, and slay the delusional power of the outer demons.

And now, he felt that with the passing of the Split Spirit, this power had been further strengthened, and it could even be used by him like a flame of wrath.

There was also an anomalous discovery.

He stared at the dark-haired boy in the mirror.

Behind the [Exorcist] text above his head, there seemed to be some traces of writhing characters looming, like the handwriting carved on white paper with a pen without ink, making it difficult to make out the content, and only its presence could be felt.

"Speaking of which, since the last time I tutored the light, I saw a text similar to the first time I obtained [The Exorcist], and there has been no movement in the future."

Do you want to start tomorrow and have a daily study meeting with the light to see what happens?

With content that would make childhood sweethearts freak out in his head, Li Wu went upstairs and turned on the lights in the bedroom.

As he was about to lie down, he heard the sound of something hitting the window.

I was really touched by the enthusiasm of the guests.

"If a ghost knocks on the door, put it in a pillow and make a ringing pillow."

Li Wu, who had made such a decision, opened the window with a bang.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What are you doing, Light? ”

The body of the impact is a white quadcopter drone, and a walkie-talkie wrapped in several layers of scotch tape hangs underneath.

The opposite window was open, and the head creeked out from under the window edge wearing something like a tactical helmet with a headlamp attached.

Li Wu lifted the sling rope and pulled the drone and the hanging cargo in.

"Are you going to target my room?"

She ignored it, and turned on her headlamp for an indeterminate few moments.

"Morse code? The straight-line distance between us is less than ten meters. ”

Having said that, Li Wu still took out his mobile phone to search for the code comparison table.

Since he was a child, he has been accustomed to this kind of development, so he should play with the light.

"Hmm...... Well? Three long, two short and one long...... It's all gibberish. ”

Li Wu, who was a little annoyed and angry, grabbed the walkie-talkie, disassembled the tape, pressed the switch, and a burst of electric noise flashed.

"Hey, hey, Rinmitsu-san, can you hear me?"

"This is Rinko Hori, the voice is clear, over."

As a result, you answered with a walkie-talkie!

"What do you mean by your Morse code? It's a meaningless character. ”

"Morse code? What is that? It's my own invention of the Holy Light Secret Language, Xiao Wu still hasn't cracked it in the end. ”

"The ghost can crack it!!"

Li Wu sighed and sat down with his back against the wall.

"So, what are you going to say on the walkie-talkie? By the way, compared to the battlefield communication tools transported by drones, I personally think that the paper cup phone is better, right? ”

Light was silent for a while, and then a slightly distorted voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Why did Xiao Wu come home at this time?" ”

…… Worst. The reason I forgot to tell her was study tutoring.

"Because of a fight with a grudge generated by jealousy?"

"Do you think I'll believe it?"

According to your usual painting style, you should believe it at this time!! Isn't it even useful to turn the conversation to the Nakaji radio station?!

"But it's true, I've awakened the power of the power that I always talk about, and I'm fighting with extraordinary female classmates and shrine maidens and the dark side of the city lurking - hey, even I think it's nonsense."

"I see, and there's a shrine maiden character that I've never heard of."

"Why did you believe it all of a sudden?!"

Li Wu automatically ignored the second half of her sentence.

Guang said calmly: "Because I feel that Xiao Wu is serious with my heart." The Dark Side of the City – Is the Society Invading Again? What does Xiao Wu think? ”

"To be honest, I don't know anything about the true face of the enemy at the moment."

Li Wu raised his head with emotion and looked out the window.

The moon looked down on the city like a giant eye, watching the crowd, including the two young men leaning against the wall and chatting over the walkie-talkie from a distance of less than ten meters.

"That's a really troublesome situation, if you know who and where you are, you can arrange a ritual to summon Valhalla's Heroic Soul Army to annihilate the enemy."

"It would be great if you could."

Li Wu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

In several battles, although most of them were thrilling, he did accumulate some pressure.

"But even if Xiao Wu's words don't help, he will definitely be able to defeat the association."

"Where did you get your faith?"

"Because Xiao Wu has always been a child who can do it~"

"Don't pretend to be old, you middle school student who has not recovered from the second middle school disease so far."

"That Xiao Wu is the uncle who lost his dreams."

"Huh?"

……

In the end, I didn't understand it, and I was fooled just to really believe his statement.
