Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 115: The Shock in the Hospital Ward

What was happening before his eyes had completely surpassed Uesugi Sosetsu's understanding.

Due to the lack of a mentor, he still has only a vague understanding of the inner world, and does things entirely based on instinct and the very little information he knows.

And now, a terrible scene was happening before his eyes.

This guy Yasue Nishijo, through some unknown method or means, got the information that the other person was in the hospital, took the body of the middle-aged man who died suddenly, and approached him.

The unknown is always greater than the known.

Uesugi Sosetsu's first reaction was to summon the golden body of Aizen Myōo to fight Saijo Yasue.

Don't do stupid things!

He quickly dismissed his own thoughts.

The enemy's attack methods are unclear, the possession mechanism is unclear, and the combat capabilities are unclear. At this time, if you rely on your passion to fight with Yasue Nishijo who is holding a machete, it would be the worst choice!

Miss Minami should have heard her cry for help, so Uesugi Sosetsu's best option would be to escape from the building immediately. The second option would be to try to circle around in the building with Nishijo Yasue until reinforcements arrive. The worst option would be to rush up and fight!
Even though he could [harden] and even though he knew a little bit about fighting, it was too risky to just rush in and fight!
The medical building was pitch black in the night. Uesugi Sosetsu started running. Relying on his familiarity with the building, he ran very fast.

Yasue Saijo behind him seemed to be not yet accustomed to this body and was slower than Sosetsu Uesugi. As one was chasing the other, Sosetsu Uesugi slowly widened the distance between him and Yasue Saijo.

At this moment, a black mass in the corridor caught Uesugi Sosetsu's attention.

Only after getting closer did he realize that it was a corpse. Due to the dim light, Uesugi Sosetsu could not see clearly who he was, but the security uniform on his body made him understand why the guard did not answer the phone.

The corpse was beheaded with a knife, and red and black blood flowed all over the corridor. The moment Uesugi Sosetsu approached the blood, he suddenly saw Nishijo Yasue's face in the reflection of the blood!

"I'll come find you." The blood began to boil, bubbling up from the ground~!

Something is coming out!
Folding from blood?
Uesugi Sosetsu suddenly felt his breathing quicken and his heart began to beat wildly. Instinctively in danger, the golden body of Aizen Myōō automatically activated, as if to encourage him to fight.

He again rejected the proposal.

Calm down! How can you fight when you are in a state of panic? You must calm down first and then think of a countermeasure!

Master Erina's words echoed in Uesugi Sosetsu's mind. He turned his heels slightly and tried to escape in another direction. Perhaps he had lost his normal state, and Uesugi Sosetsu missed a step and almost fell. He quickly stood up and ran away.

The footsteps echoed in the empty building like a Finnish tap dance. At this time, most of Yasue Nishijo's middle-aged body had risen from the ground.

Uesugi Sosetsu rushed to the other direction of the corridor.

It doesn't matter, don't panic, he frantically warned himself. He remembered that there was a fire alarm on this floor. If the alarm could be triggered, the inpatient department and the emergency building next door would definitely respond! He needed to find a place to hide and wait for rescue. He was familiar with the situation in the building, and there was no blind spot in the hospital. Uesugi Munen had a way to escape no matter where he was. What he needed now was to stay calm.

As the Dharmakāya's golden body was opened, Ms. Kurosawa and Hironaka Mariko, who were residing in his body, also appeared one after another.

[What's going on? Why can she be resurrected, but I can't?] Mariko Hironaka was terrified when she saw Yasue Nishijo, and immediately wanted to find a corner to squat down: [Wow, I don't know how to fight, I want to escape!]

Uesugi Sosetsu ignored her and ran away while saying to Ms. Kurosawa: [Is this a curse? Come on, is there any way? ]

[Yes, it is an evil spirit.] Ms. Kurosawa was also confused. She said in a very tangled manner: [I have heard my master mention it before, but I have no experience in exorcising cursed evil spirits, and I don’t know how to deal with her!]

[What?] Neither of these two kids could be trusted at the critical moment. When Uesugi Souyuki was about to ask them what they could do, a painful groan suddenly came from the empty department door not far ahead.

Bang! The machete chopped a hole in the middle of the door. Fear struck, and Nishijo Yasuie's head popped out of the hole, as if his heart had been hit hard. Only ten meters away from Uesugi Sosetsu, the evil spirit transformed by the curse was approaching.

Yasue Nishijo was stuck in the position leading to the alarm, and the door opened with a loud bang.

This is unreasonable!

Uesugi Sosetsu knew that he couldn't get close to the fire alarm. He glanced at the door and thought that the things in the medical and dental departments were so shoddy!

No! Not shoddy!
Uesugi Sosetsu suddenly understood something. Since Saijo Yasuie could use an iron spoon to cut her own throat, she could certainly use a machete to cut open the sturdy door!
He turned around and quickened his pace desperately. Because of the excessive fear that secreted a large amount of adrenaline, Uesugi Sosetsu's body could not keep up with his consciousness. His knees made a crackling sound, and his hands and feet were a little out of control!
Just behind him, Nishijo Yasue was gradually adapting to her new body. She ran faster and faster until she maintained a speed similar to that of Uesugi Sosetsu.

What should we do? Fight? Or continue to flee?
Uesugi Sosetsu's brain was calculating frantically.

Someone had already made the decision before him.

It's Ms. Kurosawa, the last generation of shrine maiden of Kurosawa Shrine.

"Run! I'll buy you some time!" The dead soul of Ms. Kurosawa blocked Saijo Yasuie. She summoned her own soul power and borrowed a little courage from Uesugi Sosetsu. She manifested a vague incarnation and chanted the Diamond Sutra. She was in the inner world and immediately rose from the ground with brilliant light, forming a light curtain between Uesugi Sosetsu and Saijo Yasuie: "Don't worry, little brother Uesugi. As long as I'm here, she will rest..."

There was the sound of a sharp object scratching velvet, and Ms. Kurosawa's brilliant manifestation was cut off by a single blow.

Not even a last word.

Uesugi Sosetsu instantly felt that Ms. Kurosawa's dead soul had completely dissipated.

Sure enough, it is very stupid to rush into a fight before figuring out the opponent's abilities!
No one knows where Hironaka Mariko has gone!

It seemed that this killing aroused Nishijo Yasue's emotions again, and the killer behind her began to violently increase her pace. She not only quickened her pace, but also swung the machete violently, slashing the air one after another, staring at Uesugi Sosetsu's back and chasing after him.

At the same time, she was still mumbling something. "I'm not wrong...", "correct...", "I have needs too", "getting in the way", "it's all your fault, it's all your fault!", "What are you barking about?", "break up, break up, break up!", "city people are all like this", "hospital", "Dad is alive", "I know you're here", "the lights are out", "you can't escape", "I said I'd come find you", "that idiot", "chop you to death, chop you to death, chop you to death", "you get a high salary", "mind your own business", "I'm going to turn you into a corpse too", "come back right away", "stop right there", "I'm going to make you into pork chop rice".

The hatred and madness in that voice were chilling and unbearable. Uesugi Sosetsu looked back and saw an evil miasma emanating from the thick darkness, and only murderous intent in the empty eyes behind him.

What's worse, Uesugi Sosetsu felt his legs starting to feel sore from running continuously.

We must change our strategy!
Finally, Uesugi Sosetsu rushed into a department. Just as he was about to lock the door, a hand reached out and tightly held the door that was about to close.

"I got you!" Yasue Nishijo showed a terrifying smile and tried to force his way into the door that was about to close.

It's now!

Uesugi Sosetsu propped his shoulder against the door, pulled out a scalpel he carried with him, and his arms flashed with golden light.

[Harden]!
With one cut of the scalpel, the flesh of Yasuie Nishijo's hand, which he used to hold the door, was torn apart and the bones were cut in half.

In this way, it's like using both fists to hit one arm!
With this sneak attack, Uesugi Sosetsu quickly seized the initiative, but the door was also pushed open. In the dim environment, the right hand holding a knife appeared in Uesugi Sosetsu's sight!

Uesugi Sosetsu instantly recalled the teachings of Master Erina.

This is a chance to make a difference!

Among the choices, Yasue Nishijo chose to stab in the middle, so at this time he should dodge and directly attack the opponent's lower body!
He did as he said and pounced forward with a roar.

"Oh!"

The knife stabbed into the air and Saijo Yasue skillfully swung the machete, but the blade was too long and hit the door frame, so he couldn't swing it. At this moment, Uesugi Sosetsu immediately threw a straight punch, causing Saijo Yasue to lose his balance.

Kang!
He then grabbed her knife-holding right wrist tightly and the two of them left the room after a struggle.

Take advantage of now!
Uesugi Sosetsu Aizen Myōo's golden body was fully unleashed, and the fear disappeared. The courage and bloodiness of fighting returned, and the power of enthusiasm swelled in her chest. Uesugi Sosetsu was very confident in her wrist strength. With the blessing of hardening, no matter how skilled Saijo Yasue was, the body she controlled was ultimately the body of a middle-aged man in his forties, which was no match for herself in her twenties!
However, even with all these preparations, Uesugi Sosetsu still miscalculated.

Saijo Yasuie's left hand, which should have lost its fighting power, attacked again stubbornly and stabbed his eyes. Because Uesugi Sosetsu was wrestling with Saijo Yasuie with both hands, he could only turn his head to dodge.

This caused Uesugi Sosetsu's strength to weaken, and Nishijo Yasue tried hard to break free from Uesugi Sosetsu's control with a ferocious look on her face. She roared and growled like a beast, spitting, and tried hard to break free from Uesugi Sosetsu's hands.

As long as he could break free, she could cut him in two with one knife!

The injured left hand scratched around Uesugi Sosetsu's head, cutting the skin on Uesugi Sosetsu's neck. The well-trimmed nails could not have caused any harm to Uesugi Sosetsu by touching him, but Uesugi Sosetsu could feel the pain.

He roared in pain but refused to let up.

We must find a way to disarm the opponent!

He clenched his right hand with all his strength, and the hardened force gradually overwhelmed Yasue Nishijo's strength.

Yasue Nishijo still did not let go of the machete in her hand. She clenched her teeth, and a large amount of foamy corpse fluid came out from between the teeth of the corpse. At the same time, she made a rattlesnake-like sound to intimidate the other party. Suddenly, she shook her hand away, and her foreheads collided!
In severe pain, Uesugi Sosetsu let out a scream, and the strength disappeared from Uesugi Sosetsu's fingers, and Nishijo Yasue broke free from Uesugi Sosetsu's hands.

Oops!

Uesugi Sosetsu felt dizzy and staggered back with one hand covering his head, while he held onto the wall with the other hand to try to clear his mind.

But Yasue Saijo had already raised his machete.

It was too late now. As the world spun around him, Uesugi Sosetsu could only focus all his strength on his hands.

Vajra upholds!

As soon as the courage was added, Uesugi Sosetsu felt a sharp object scratching his arm, and then hit his bone marrow!

His right arm felt numb as if it was broken, and [Vajra Dhyani] was actually shattered by a single blow from Saijo Yasue!
But this force also protected Uesugi Sosetsu once, leaving only a faint white mark on his arm, and the whole person fell to the ground and rolled twice.

"Sure enough, you too." Saijo Yasue suddenly realized: "No wonder you have fewer dots and lines than others."

"I was born with the ability to see dots and lines on things. If you stab along the dots, you will die. If you cut along the lines, you will break." Nishijo Yasue let one arm hang leisurely and slowly approached: "What can you see?"

"But it doesn't matter."

With that, she raised her machete, ready to deliver the final blow.

[Vajra Dhyani] was shattered, and Uesugi Sosetsu was temporarily unable to gather his strength.

Am I going to die here today? Uesugi Sosetsu's vision was blurry, he felt dizzy and nauseous, but his lips were dry and he couldn't vomit anything.

His blurry vision suddenly caught sight of Yasue Nishijo's back.

what?
A streak of white light flashed from the end of the corridor, breaking through the air!
