A person in Tokyo becomes a demon god

Chapter 212 The Current Situation in Tokyo
"Sorry, Mitsuko-nee."

On a street in Shinjuku, two girls are riding bicycles and talking to each other.

"I made you come out with me to look for the Kaoru girls."

Kaoru Inoue, dressed in an adorable halter top, floral skirt, and lantern pants, wearing a round hat, said, pulling her hat down slightly.

Won't this attract attention?

She was the mastermind behind the 'Itabashi Ward Riot'. Ever since the arrival of the great Onmyoji 'Ashiya Doman', Inoue Kaoru had been holed up in the Tokugawa residence, never even stepping out of her room, let alone going out on the street. Now, in order to find the escaped 'Kaoru's', she had no choice but to go out again.

"No, no, absolutely not."

Mitsuko Tokugawa, who was also riding a bicycle, answered casually.

"When you were possessed in Banqiao District before, you were adorned with magnificent decorations, radiating light and exuding divine power. You look completely different now. Even your uncles and aunts probably wouldn't recognize you."

Simply put, their temperaments are vastly different.

Most people's appearance is often judged by their hairstyle, clothes, and accessories.

If everyone is shirtless and they are not acquaintances, it is difficult to distinguish a person from another: moreover, Kaoru's information has long been a top secret of the island nation.

All information and photos on the internet are strictly confiscated and controlled by the Metropolitan Police Department. In other words, even if she walks down the street, no one actually recognizes Kaoru.

Besides, in the minds of ordinary people, how could a powerful supernatural being ride a bicycle on the main road?

As for being afraid of spies and agents from other countries: Photon is right beside me.

"Then I'm relieved."

Kaoru Inoue, riding the 'Silver Dragon', breathed a sigh of relief.

Yes, she and Mitsuko Tokugawa were both riding bicycles: not only them, but the roads of Tokyo were full of bicycles.

The island nation's government has issued a strong order to ban all private cars!

Yes, private cars are prohibited from driving on the roads in the city.

The order, which sounds absurd, is actually a well-thought-out decision.

First, in the event of a supernatural disaster, the only purpose of private cars is to block traffic: if even one car breaks down, it can cause a traffic jam stretching for tens of kilometers. Not only will it prevent the timely evacuation of disaster victims, but it will also prevent even police cars and armored vehicles from entering the disaster area.

This problem has been repeatedly raised on the front lines: each time they can only enter by helicopter, and various heavy weapons are scarce.

Secondly, we are now in the supernatural age. According to paranormal scientists, even when injecting supernatural drugs, the success rate is higher for the strong.

For professional athletes or seasoned veterans, the success rate can be as high as 67%.

As a result, a fitness craze naturally swept across the island nation.

Especially after the recent "Water Dragon God Disaster," those who inhaled the toxic gas experienced severe pain all over their bodies, and only drinking plenty of water and exercising could alleviate the suffering.

What are you waiting for?
Sweat, fitness girl!

"So now we all get around by bicycle."

While pedaling her bicycle, Tokugawa Mitsuko gave Inoue Kaoru a lesson on being a "hikikomori" (social recluse).

"Moreover, these bicycles are charged when you pedal them normally, and the motors can accelerate in critical moments, making them just as fast as ordinary cars."

Of course, one is metal encasing flesh, and the other is flesh encasing metal; their safety performance is completely incomparable. But as the saying goes, what is the size of a car? What is the size of a bicycle? When it really comes to escaping for your life, this kind of fitness/electric dual-purpose bicycle is far more convenient than a car.

Encountering obstacles,

They could even carry their bicycles across.

If you find the difficulty too easy, you can add more weight yourself.

Nowadays, various car companies have launched short-duration gliding kits, water-crossing airbag kits, and bicycles that can 'fly' and 'cross rivers,' selling them at the same price as cars, and their sales are extremely booming!
Business opportunities are never in short supply.

"Things are changing so fast,"

Kaoru Inoue couldn't help but complain.
How long have I been staying at the Tokugawa residence? And Tokyo has become like this.

"Kaoru, look—"

Not only were the roads full of bicycles, but only a few trucks and buses remained; even along the sides of the road, large numbers of people were jogging.

These men and women, wearing headphones, tank tops and shorts, and carrying briefcases, ran past, sweating profusely; to the uninitiated, they looked like people running to the street to exercise—in reality, they were just office workers running to work.

"No matter who you are, it's always good to have a strong body."

Can't outrun a supernatural monster?

It doesn't matter, as long as I can outrun everyone else.

Moreover, having office workers run to work can save on commuting costs, killing two birds with one stone.

Nowadays, the island nation is all about fitness. Everywhere you look, you see muscular men with buzz cuts, tank tops, and dark green military pants, a testament to the combination of technology and hard work.

Strictly speaking, the number of bodybuilders who actually die from technology is not that many: most bodybuilders have experienced sudden wealth after being poor, so they naturally train like crazy, eat like crazy, drink like crazy, play around with women like crazy, and use marijuana like crazy.
In addition, during the competition, diuretics are needed to dehydrate the whole body; the mummies on stage may look fierce, but in reality they are so weak that they would collapse with a push, and it is normal for them to die suddenly on the spot.

If you only take medication and don't exercise, you'll actually only gain weight and develop a pointed head.

It might even affect IQ?

Regardless:

"All kinds of bodybuilding drugs are now openly legal."

While riding her bicycle, Tokugawa Mitsuko explained the changes in the city to Inoue Kaoru.

"There are also restaurants that offer all sorts of high-calorie foods, which are all 'calorie bombs'; and various gyms, martial arts schools, and kendo schools."

A single thought by one person can become a 'tide of the times' that millions of people have to adapt to; along the streets, numerous bodybuilding and fighting dojos have sprung up, attracting a constant stream of people, indicating booming business.

Is this still Tokyo?

This scene,

Kaoru Inoue couldn't even complain about it.

Will the whole world be filled with muscular monsters in the future?
Just imagining Brother Lu taking off his clothes and revealing his Terminator-like muscles...
It doesn't seem to work?
"We're here,"

Before they knew it, the two had arrived in Bunkyo Ward by bicycle.

In the city, electric bicycles are not much slower than cars; moreover, since both of them are supernatural beings, they are not slow at riding bicycles either, and they quickly passed through Shinjuku Ward and arrived at Bunkyo Ward.

Bunkyo Ward is home to some of the island nation's best schools: kindergartens, elementary schools, junior high schools, high schools, and universities.

Under the banner of the University of Tokyo, it is undoubtedly an educational center.

"The family received news that someone saw you, Kaoru, have 'returned' to school."

The two stopped in front of the Tokyo University Affiliated Junior High School.
The real Inoue Kaoru had just arrived here by bicycle, so the one returning to school could only be one of the four clones she created.

"Let's go, retrieve the 'clone' before it causes a major disturbance."

The two parked their high-tech bicycles and stepped into the school.

"Hmm?" As soon as she stepped into the school, Inoue Kaoru looked around in confusion.

"Something's wrong,"

This is the supernatural age, and in theory, there should be physical education classes every moment. But in front of the two of them, there was an empty sports field.

"Be careful, it might be your 'clones' causing this."

With her hand resting on the hilt of her sword at her waist, Tokugawa Mitsuko, as a member of the Tokugawa family, was naturally equipped with a high-tech, renowned sword.

She could cut through iron like mud, but she could at least sever a hair with a breath; in addition, she also possessed 'qi', so dozens of strong men could not get close to her.

"It was my suggestion to practice using 'cloning',"

Photon also needs to take responsibility.

Step, step, step.

The two cautiously made their way step by step into the sports field of the Tokyo University Affiliated Junior High School.

Just as they were about to step into the teaching building:
tap tap tap,

tap tap tap tap tap,

A series of rapid footsteps came from the left and right.
Two dark streams of people surged out from the left and right sides of the teaching building, quickly surrounding Tokugawa Mitsuko and Inoue Kaoru as they stood guard.

"Get out of the way!"

As she spoke, Tokugawa Mitsuko prepared to draw her sword.

"Wait, Mitsuko-nee."

She raised her hand to stop the other person from drawing their sword, and Inoue Kaoru's gaze swept over them with a complex expression: middle school students of varying heights and builds, muscular teachers, and even a bald principal. These people—

"They're all people I know."

"This is your school, do you know it well?"

Mitsuko Tokugawa started speaking instinctively, but realized her mistake halfway through.

Does Kaoru mean that everyone here is connected to her? Even if they've only exchanged a few words, it includes Yuuka with her ponytail, Minami from Class 3, and their PE teacher, Yamamoto.

All of these people stared at the two of them with disgust: to be precise, Inoue Kaoru.

"Get out!"

"You are not welcome here!"

"Disappear from everyone's sight, you ugly freak."

It was clear that the teachers and students of the Tokyo University Affiliated Junior High School were making a fuss, and their message was the same: get rid of Inoue Kaoru.

"This is the case."

After all, it was a 'clone' she had drawn herself, Inoue Kaoru immediately realized.

"It's you, isn't it, Mei Xunzi!"

"Hehehe~~"

A string of silvery laughter rang out from behind the crowd.

"it's me,"

"Kaoru Inoue, whom students admire, teachers love, and the principal indulges."

"If I just ask, everyone will help me, because I'm the cutest girl in the world, Kaoru~~"

"Kaoru, you too—"

Such a triumphant declaration almost made Tokugawa Mitsuko lose her composure.

Although it's a clone, it's still part of Inoue Kaoru, meaning that the obedient girl next to her is thinking this way.

That's so narcissistic!

"Sister Guangzi, now is not the time to talk about this."

“Find the location of the ‘clone’ and bring her back into the canvas.”

Pretending to be calm, but with her face flushed, Inoue Kaoru changed the subject—no, she went straight to the point.

"Now that it's confirmed to be 'Mei Xunzi,' her ability is 'charm.'"

These students and teachers were all bewitched by her.

Otherwise, why would she angrily accuse the real Inoue Kaoru and the eldest daughter of the Tokugawa family, or even prepare to take action?
"Be careful--"

brush,

A dumbbell whistled through the air.

It swept across Inoue Kaoru's temple in an arc.

A dumbbell striking someone on the temple could cause serious injury or even death on the spot.

Fortunately, Inoue Kaoru was, after all, a supernatural being. She easily dodged with a backward lean, her gaze towards the ponytail-wearing girl in front of her complex.

"Yuka."

This is one of her friends from school, now:
"Get out, you ugly freak!"

The girl wielding the dumbbells had a ferocious expression on her face as she attacked and shouted.

"Nobody here wants to see you. You can't even read the air. You're just pretending to be innocent."

brush,

On the other side, a bamboo sword slashed down, forcing Inoue Kaoru to dodge to the side.

"The guy who got in through the back door,"

The one wielding the bamboo sword was the girl in the class who sold 'enhancing agents'.

"Everyone is only smiling at you because of Inoue Kaori-neechan, don't get the wrong idea—"

As soon as these two students moved, the other students and teachers rushed forward.

"Get out!"

"Get out!"

"Get out!"

Former classmates and teachers angrily denounced and cursed him.

At the same time, the weapon in his hand came crashing down on him.
