I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 7 [Work to Death] and [Moon Sand Sauce]

What comes into view is a dirt road with mud flowing slowly, and a large area of Gassho-style houses with steep eaves dripping with raindrops.

The air was filled with misty water vapor, and the low houses on both sides looked quite like the architectural style of the early Edo period.

Was Edo Castle really built during the Edo period?

Gassho-zukuri, to put it simply, is a simple wooden house with a large amount of thatch on the roof.

The reason for this name is just to distinguish the residences of ordinary people from the shops called "machiya" and the "nagaya" where craftsmen live.

But there is one thing that is very strange.

Why are houses built upside down?

Beside the Laughing Prajna, whose head and body had been separated at some point, the red-faced warrior with drooping eyes nonchalantly withdrew his gaze.

Uesugi Tetsu's consciousness fell into darkness. In his final moments, he could only curse in his heart:

"You told me this just increases the probability of triggering hidden events..."

……

A huge water pressure came.

Uesugi Che, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up sweating profusely, touched his neck tremblingly and gasped for breath, and the dry air rushed into his lungs frantically.

Looking around again, what I saw was not upside-down Gassho-zukuri houses and muddy streets, but the familiar layout of a room.

There was no red-faced ronin beside him, but a pillow printed with two-dimensional patterns that the original owner had bought early on to hold while sleeping.

Uesugi Tetsu breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart rate, which had been racing all the way, gradually dropped.

He had just learned that a person can still retain consciousness and thinking for a few seconds after his head is cut off. Facts have proved that Lavoisier did not lie to everyone hundreds of years ago.

Call out the option of [Enter the Eternal World] again, and you will see a yellow light appear behind you (Resurrection Times: 1/2), followed by a prompt that the resurrection times will be restored once every 12 hours.

In other words, if he wanted, he could be beheaded by the ghost warrior again.

After hesitating for a moment, Uesugi Tetsu still did not click [Enter the Eternal World].

He is not afraid of death, he just has no habit of being beheaded.

Taking out his cell phone to check the time, Uesugi Che discovered that only a few minutes had passed in real time.

Even if the speed of time in reality and the ordinary world is not the same, it is similar... So I might as well take a nap now and explore again when I wake up.

The ghost warrior who could kill me with one blow couldn't possibly have nothing to do and just stand guard at the door of my birthplace every day.

And before going to bed, there is one more thing to test.

Uesugi Che had an idea and took the walking token in his backpack into his hand without any hindrance.

——Items from the ordinary world can be brought into reality, but I don’t know whether items from the real world can be brought into the ordinary world, and whether American-style Iai can be played.

Just as he was about to put the token away, the phone on the bed vibrated and the screen lit up.

A message pops up.

Uesugi Che was stunned and stared at the token in his hand for a while, not sure if this was a coincidence.

But don't put the token away yet.

[Work to Death]: Honestly, getting called out of bed in the early hours of the morning to sit on the sidewalk in the cold wind is a hell of a life. I want to die. I really want to die.

Looking at this slightly unfamiliar LINE friend's name, Uesugi Che closed his eyes and recalled for a while, and finally remembered who this was.

The original owner used to often go to various supernatural places to test his courage. In addition to accompanying his two good brothers, he was naturally a guy who was quite interested in supernatural events.

And this "Work to Death" is actually a corporate uncle who has been working for many years and whom he met on a supernatural forum.

The two had a very good relationship. The other often complained to him about his rude boss and unbearable working hours, while he would ask the other about questions related to the supernatural.

Before, the two of them even had a relationship where they could meet in person - but the original owner was socially anxious and could only talk nonsense online, but was afraid to meet netizens in person.

Just by flipping through the chat history, you can see a long list of very niche knowledge related to the supernatural and ghosts.

But Uesugi Tetsu didn't believe these contents too much.

How can a mere office worker netizen understand so much? Then why is he still an office worker? He might as well just become an Onmyoji and have a stable job.

[Work to Death]: Now that things have come to this, let's eat first. (Bento.jpg)

Uesugi Tetsu could tell at a glance that the thing in the picture was the cheapest expiring chicken cutlet bento at the 711-Eleven convenience store.

I have to work overtime and eat classic pre-prepared meals. I don’t know if the liver of an old office worker can withstand it.

After thinking about it, Uesugi Tetsu decided to test the netizens' depth of understanding first.

[Moon Sand Sauce]: I have a friend who wants to play Fox, Dog and Raccoon in the early morning. Is it dangerous? [Work and Die]: If you really want to die, I suggest you play in a crowded place.

【Yusa-chan】:?

[Work to Death]: Because more people die slower. Haha, just kidding. Better report to the police before playing, just to be safe.

police station?

Uesugi Che's eyes narrowed.

When ordinary people encounter supernatural events, they don’t think of the police. They go to the shrine to pray for amulets or seek help from temple masters.

Unless the other party knows the existence of the Special Affairs Office.

Uesugi Che took a deep breath, it seemed that this generation of netizens was really something.

He thought of the red-faced warrior who had beheaded him with a single blow in Chang Shi, and typed a series of descriptive words. When he was about to send a query, he saw the other party's profile picture suddenly dim.

[Go to hell with work]: Oh my god, here comes the boss. Let’s talk next time.

Helpless, Uesugi Tetsu had to send this message first.

After waiting for two seconds and still seeing the message "unread", Uesugi Tetsu put down his phone and played with the walking token in his hand, recalling the effect of the walking identity:

[Walking: Since ancient times, people have measured the history and land of the world with their feet. You do the same. Effect: Increases the chance of triggering hidden events.]

As soon as I opened the door, I was hacked to death by an elite monster. When I picked up my phone, I found out that the online office worker uncle I had been chatting with for more than a year actually had something in his head.

If you say this is a coincidence, he would never believe it even if you kill him.

As for why people say that those who work themselves to death are "social animal uncles"?
A guy who smokes every day, drinks heavily every few days, has a reversed sleep schedule, and complains to him from time to time that his boss is a bad person, must be a single fat office worker with more than ten years of work experience.

Uesugi Che didn't think about it anymore, he just closed his eyes and went to sleep.

He had to go to school in a few hours, and before that, he had to explore Edo Castle one more time.

……

"I actually use the same Line number online and in real life."

In the conference room, Nanjo Aimi put down the two mobile phones in her hands with an expressionless face, and looked at her friend "Tsukisa-chan" who looked like her, feeling an indescribable weirdness.

Generally, names like "酱" and "姬" are online names used by girls.

I didn't expect that this little guy, Uesugi Che, who looks so serious, is actually that kind of person.

Turning the phone face down, Nanjo Aishi saw the middle-aged man with a sword hanging from his waist. He walked in from the door and glanced at everyone present.
"Everyone is here?"

The man nodded, and after suppressing the young Yin-Yang followers who were about to stand up and bow to him, he spoke decisively, "Stop talking nonsense."

Nanjo Aimi, who was sitting motionless in her seat, glanced at the other three young Yin-Yang masters and thought to herself that these guys had no vision.

It is a good thing to respect seniors in the workplace, but you should also pay attention to the character of your "seniors".

For example, their immediate superior, Kondo Tomoya, the Onmyoji of Arakawa Ward, who is in charge of the Onmyoji Bureau, hates these empty formalities.

"First, the approximate location of the Friendship Club is now clear. Who will handle it..."

"I am solely responsible."

Before other colleagues could speak, Nanjo Aimi raised her hand.

As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to feel the murderous gazes of her other colleagues.

It seems to be saying: Curly Dog deserves to die!
Kondo Tomoya frowned indifferently: "Nanjo, are you planning to use ordinary people as bait?"

"No." Nanjo Aishi pointed at Hasegawa standing behind him and said, "He'll come. The reward is a promotion to [Degyeki] after this mission."

"Please give me more advice."

Hasegawa took a step forward, grinned, and showed a bright smile to everyone in the conference room.

There was silence in the conference room for several seconds.

Kondo Tomoya said nothing more, just nodded and said: "Next, let's talk about the first wave."

Everyone present showed puzzled expressions.

Plans for how to respond to the first wave should have been made months in advance.

Kondo Tomoya seemed to understand everyone's thoughts, so he rapped his knuckles on the table and said seriously, "Just over ten minutes ago, urgent news came from the Tianwen Dao."

"—The world is experiencing unusual turmoil, and the first wave is about to arrive."

　I hope you will keep reading the new book, reading is everything!
