I cultivate a deity in Tokyo

They didn't even know where the two demons' lair was located.

This has made the investigation very difficult.

We can only use the simplest method.

The corpses of two demons were found.

Once their bodies are found, it will be easy to determine which faction was responsible.

After all, Shinto's exorcism methods, Buddhist salvation rituals, and attacks from Shinto artifacts are fundamentally different.

But the result was beyond the expectations of all the demons.

Qianzu and Qingfang seemed to have vanished into thin air.

No matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find the frequency of their demonic power.

You should know that even if someone is dismembered by humans, they should still retain some demonic power.

The demon, disbelieving in evil, explored down to a depth of ten kilometers, but still found nothing.

The investigation reached a stalemate.

Since they couldn't find anything out on their own, many demons funded the hiring of human detectives to conduct investigations.

Many demons also try their luck with metaphysics, going to nearby shrines and temples that are believed to be efficacious to pray for protection.

At this moment, under the neon-lit night.

In a dark corner.

A rabbit demon emerged from the earth.

Its ears are enormous, flapping like palm-leaf fans.

As soon as the soil broke, he couldn't wait to say it.

"Boss, I found it!"

"explain."

On the other side, a tall man in a black coat, standing in the shadows, slowly turned around.

Somewhat disturbingly, he had no facial features.

Above her neck was a square mahjong tile, about the size of a human face.

Seeing this figure, the rabbit-headed demon exclaimed excitedly.

"The Shibuya Ward's Paranormal Division 6 suddenly solved a large number of cases overnight!"

"I managed to infiltrate and saw key clues that led to the solving of those cases, many of which were related to the Thousand-Legged Demon!"

"Oh?" Mahjong Demon said with slight surprise.

"Could it really be those guys from Paranormal Section Six who did it?"

Its emerald green face turned toward the rabbit-headed demon.

"The other demons probably don't know about this yet, right?"

The rabbit-headed demon nodded hastily.

Then, unable to resist, he asked.

"Boss, if we really find out who did it, what about the divine artifact that the King promised?"

Mahjong Demon curled his lip in disdain.

"Tsk, I understand. Anyway, I already have a divine artifact."

"However, it seems you don't have your own divine artifact yet, do you?" The mahjong demon paused, looking at the rabbit-headed demon on the ground. "Do you know what this means?"

The rabbit-headed demon's already bloodshot eyes were now brimming with tears of excitement.

Indeed, choosing the right patron is the key to survival for these little demons!

As the rabbit-headed demon reached out its claws to wipe away these tears of emotion.

Suddenly, a hand emerged from its chest and mercilessly seized its demon core.

Under the rabbit demon's bewildered, angry, and somewhat surprised gaze.

The Mahjong Demon slowly ground the tiles with his two fingers, mercilessly crushing them.

"This means that I will soon have two divine artifacts."

Chapter 72 There are monsters here

Shibuya Ward Police Station, Tokyo.

"Phew, it's finally over."

With the victim's identity confirmed in the last case file, Inspector Yamato let out a long sigh of relief, slumped into his large office chair, and threw his arms back down.

The obvious dark circles under his eyes and the countless cups of extra-strong coffee he had refilled next to his computer were testaments to the fact that he had been working overtime for two consecutive days and nights.

At that moment, he rubbed his slightly swollen temples and let out an extremely loud yawn that no amount of caffeine could suppress.

After two days of organizing, I've finally finished processing most of the materials that Priest Shiraki gave me.

"Inspector, I'll go return the case file to the Investigation Division." Beside him, Inspector Yamato's deputy also breathed a sigh of relief and reached for the documents on the table.

"Wait a minute." Inspector Yamato raised his hand to stop him, looking at his deputy's equally exhausted face, and said in a low voice.

"Kajita-kun, it's not too late to return the files later."

"The most urgent thing right now is to go to the toilet."

"Inspector, you should be recovering by now," Kajita Subaru said with a hint of helplessness.

"It'll be adjusted soon, please, this is the last time." Inspector Yamato looked at his deputy with a pleading expression. "Are you not even willing to grant your senior's request?"

"After work, I'll treat you to drinks at an izakaya!"

Under duress and enticement, Kajita Subaru hesitated for only a moment before nodding in agreement.

As for why it is like this...

It all started two days ago with the video footage I received from Shiramoto Jun.

When Shiraki Shun handed over the information he obtained from the centipede to Inspector Yamato, he thought it was a follow-up to the Setagaya Ward murder case and excitedly turned on the media player.

As a result, without any prior warning, I watched several hours of incredibly terrifying paranormal videos.

The key point is that Inspector Yamato knows that these videos are genuine.

After watching it, he felt completely unwell.

It also left behind a brief period of post-traumatic stress disorder and fear.

Even now, he goes to the toilet with his deputy, Kajita Subaru.

As for the reason that Inspector Yamato was so terrified

The video not only involves the supernatural, but also features a strange insect in a purple suit that appears frequently.

Every time they appear, they leave a chillingly human smile on the camera, as if they are watching you from behind the screen.

This was especially unbearable for Inspector Yamato.

He originally wanted to ask Shiramu Jun what this thing was.

But I held it in.

This is my sixth lesson in the paranormal.

The scope of responsibility is clearly stated.

Such a creature is certainly not within my jurisdiction.

Moreover, in the past few days, Inspector Yamato has felt colder than before.

Adding an outer garment did nothing to help.

If it's not a kidney problem, then it's due to being plagued by yin energy.

Judging from Inspector Yamato's physical condition, it is most likely the latter.

Right now, all he wants is to finish dealing with these matters and then take some time to visit a shrine or temple to offer his prayers.

Ideally, I'd like to visit the shrine of Priest Shiraki and try to curry favor with him.

Yes.

Shiraki Shun, who informed Inspector Yamato that he had exorcised the spirit of Ishigami Yuko and brought a wealth of clues, was already considered a very remarkable priest by Inspector Yamato.

They are at least no weaker than the high-ranking and respected priests at Meiji Shrine.

Inspector Yamato was quite reassured that such a priest could exorcise evil spirits for him.

"Splash—"

At this moment, the two of them faced the urinals in front of them and urinated profusely.

A look of relief appeared on their faces.

Inspector Yamato glanced furtively at his deputy and was surprised to find...

This kid was clearly holding back a lot too.

That's right, he was there when he watched those videos.

"Inspector, where did that Priest Shiraki get these things from?" Kajita Subaru asked, seemingly afraid of the silence.

He was also present when they met in Setagaya Ward, but he did not speak with Shiraki Shun.

"I don't know." Inspector Yamato shook his head.

"The methods those priests use are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people like us, so Kajita-kun shouldn't even think about it anymore."

"I understand, but I still feel a little uncomfortable."

"I always feel that the Paranormal Section Six is ​​not as useful as a high school priest," Kajita Subaru muttered.

Inspector Yamato shook his head and sighed.

Kajita Takashi's words are not without merit.
