Kato Megumi spread her hands.
"In that case, I can only stay here for the time being and wait for the caster to cast the spell again before I can break his spell."
"Ms. Kato, isn't there any other way, such as holding a religious ceremony to help her pass on to the afterlife?"
"I'm making a suggestion," Noguchi suggested, rubbing his hands together.
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do besides this."
Kato Megumi shook her head.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Noguchi's face.
Professor Miyano immediately raised his head aggressively.
"See? I told you, all that sorcery and ghouls is a lie. This world only has science, not witchcraft."
The criminal who destroyed the body must have discovered the fluorescent agent I had applied to it, so after destroying the body, he used the fluorescent agent to create a false trace in order to mislead us.
This demonstrates that the criminal possesses extremely strong counter-surveillance capabilities!
Professor Miyano completely overturned Kato Megumi's explanation using detective-style hypotheses.
However, after listening to his speech, even Noguchi, who had originally been full of confidence in Kato Megumi, couldn't help but have a hint of doubt in his eyes.
However, being a smooth talker, he didn't show his rejection of Kato Megumi as obviously as Professor Miyano.
Even if Kato Keima doesn't know any exorcism magic, she is still a high-ranking priestess at Meiji Shrine, one of the most elite members of Shintoism in Japan, and not someone he, as a university branch manager, can easily offend.
"Ms. Kato, what do you think about this..."
Department Head Noguchi kept rubbing his hands together, looking at Kato Megumi with a slightly ingratiating expression.
If Kato Megumi takes the opportunity to leave, he will respectfully see her off. If Kato Megumi wants to continue playing around, he will simply play along and give this young lady a way out, thus avoiding offending either side and making everyone happy.
I'll stay tonight.
Faced with doubts, exclusion, and suspicion, Kato Megumi remained unfazed and simply left behind a remark.
Xu Ming noticed that her eyes were incredibly determined; she must have discovered something.
"Then... I'll arrange accommodation for Miss Kato..."
Kato Megumi waved her hand.
"No need, I'll stay here tonight."
"I understand."
Noguchi chuckled awkwardly, but inwardly he was ranting and raving.
Miss, if you're going to mess around, don't try to trick me!
Those who destroy corpses are either some 'filthy thing' or a vicious and perverted criminal, both of whom are extremely dangerous.
If anything happens to the young lady while she's here, he'll have to apologize!
Professor Miyano gave a cold smile.
"If you want to stay, then stay. I'm not leaving tonight anyway."
I'd like to see which bastard dares to cause trouble right under my nose!
"In that case, I'll stay too. I'm not comfortable leaving just Mr. Miyano and the two high school students behind."
Suzuki Tomohito said with a warm, gentle smile.
"Then I too..."
Koichi Yano was not to be outdone, but just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly interrupted by Professor Miyano.
"Yano, have you finished the report I asked you to complete last time?"
"I'm sorry, teacher. I'm still a little short of finishing."
Koichi Yano immediately lowered his head, feeling somewhat guilty.
"Then why aren't you going back to write your report?!"
"terribly sorry!"
Koichi Yano was scolded away by Professor Miyano.
Therefore, the personnel on duty in the forensic department on the basement level tonight were finalized.
Xu Ming, Kato Megumi, Professor Miyano, and Suzuki Tomohito.
Afterwards, Minister Noguchi had bedding delivered, and the originally empty office was immediately filled to the brim.
Of course, these beddings are just for show. Under these circumstances, in such a strange place, who could sleep?
After making preparations, Kato Megumi suddenly spoke up and made a request.
"Professor Miyano, would you mind if we took a look around the University of Tokyo?"
Professor Miyano waved his hand impatiently.
"Let's go! Let's go! It's best if we don't come back!"
Kato Megumi glanced at Xu Ming indifferently, and Xu Ming immediately understood.
The two left the basement together.
The moment Xu Ming stepped out of the medical school building, he felt much lighter; the atmosphere in the entire building had been incredibly oppressive.
The forensic department, especially on the basement floor, is practically like a crematorium.
After leaving the medical school, Xu Ming followed Kato Megumi aimlessly as they strolled through the University of Tokyo campus, enveloped by the profound atmosphere of history.
Gradually, the two walked onto a secluded path.
Kato Megumi suddenly slowed down, and when Xu Ming was parallel to her, she suddenly spoke.
"Does Xu Mingjun find something strange?"
Xu Ming's eyes flickered slightly.
What does Ms. Kato mean?
"Why don't they believe me?"
Xu Ming's body trembled slightly.
This was his biggest question: Kato Megumi had clearly displayed extraordinary skills, yet these people seemed to ignore it like they were playing StarCraft.
"They are not ignoring it, they simply cannot see it."
Kato Megumi's tone was incredibly calm, yet it revealed a startling truth.
Chapter Sixty: Visible, Invisible
Xu Ming was suddenly jolted.
"You mean to say..."
"Those who can see are people with clairvoyance, like you and me."
Kato Megumi pointed at Xu Ming, then at herself.
"Whether it's Yin-Yang techniques, magic, or Taoist arts, it's all the same. Only those who can 'see' have the talent and qualifications to practice these arts."
Most 'strange' things are like this; people without clairvoyance cannot see them unless the 'strange' thing wants them to see.
This is why, despite the existence of numerous 'strange' phenomena hidden in the world, they remain unseen by the public. Besides deliberate manipulation and guidance of public opinion by the authorities, the biggest reason is that most people simply cannot see them.
Because it cannot be seen, it 'does not exist.'
Kato Megumi concluded with a meaningful remark.
Xu Ming suddenly realized.
No wonder the others reacted so strangely; they hadn't even seen the golden magic circle in Kato Megumi's hand.
In their eyes, Kato Megumi was just gesturing wildly, probably no different from a shaman performing a ritual.
Because of ignorance, there is no fear.
"The ghouls that Ms. Kato mentioned before, could they really be..."
Kato Megumi nodded slightly, her expression somewhat solemn.
"The evil art of creating corpse demons is very special, and because of its special nature, even ordinary people who cannot practice Yin-Yang techniques can still cast spells as long as they have the corresponding magical artifacts."
This is a very troublesome and evil spell.
Xu Ming nodded as if he understood.
"In short, tonight will not be peaceful, Xu Mingjun, be careful."
Kato Megumi gave her instructions.
"I see."
The two wandered around the University of Tokyo and then returned to the Department of Forensic Medicine on the first basement floor of the University of Tokyo's Faculty of Medicine.
Professor Miyano and Tomohito Suzuki were not in their offices, but faint voices could be heard coming from the depths of the corridor.
Xu Ming and Kato Megumi exchanged a glance and walked deeper into the corridor.
Arriving at the morgue at the far end, two people in white coats were busy at the autopsy table.
Despite the two being completely covered up, Xu Ming recognized them from subtle features such as their figures and hair, identifying them as Professor Miyano and Tomohito Suzuki.
At this moment, Professor Miyano seemed to be completely absorbed in his work, and didn't even bother to look up.
Suzuki Tomohito noticed the two people at the door, nodded as a greeting, and then continued to bury himself in his work.
Professor Miyano, holding a scalpel, carefully cut open the corpse's chest cavity, exposing the subcutaneous tissue and fat, yet calmly removed the internal tissues...
The scene before me was no different from that in a slaughterhouse.
Xu Ming's expression was somewhat strange as he watched the two men intently dissecting the corpse on the table.
These two are incredibly reckless; knowing there's something wrong with the morgue, they still chose to stay there.
Kato Megumi tugged at Xu Ming's sleeve, signaling him to leave, and Xu Ming nodded in understanding.
On his way back to the office, Xu Ming passed by the abandoned classroom and subconsciously looked inside.
