Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

What era are we living in? How dare anyone smash up a shop in broad daylight? And even cause injuries or deaths? This is utterly lawless!

Moreover, you smashed things without informing me beforehand or reporting back afterwards. This shows a complete disregard for the police. Let's see what kind of gang you guys belong to!

So, Officer Ishiguro gathered four other colleagues in two police cars and drove straight to the McDonald's where the incident occurred.

Upon entering, Inspector Ishiguro was dumbfounded. What kind of grudge could lead someone to smash something so badly?

However, the store manager immediately complained that it wasn't thugs or gangsters who were behind it, but a little girl.

Inspector Ishiguro initially didn't believe it, but the store manager provided a video—the photos showed a little girl swinging a stool from inside the store and smashing it against the shop window.

Her action resulted in a young couple sitting by the window being hit and killed because they couldn't dodge in time.

Watching the video, Inspector Ishiguro felt a headache coming on. His first thought was that this might be another case involving the supernatural.

He initially didn't want to take the case, but the victim's family knelt down on the spot, saying that their child was about to get engaged and was now dead, and they hoped that Inspector Ishiguro could bring the murderer to justice.

There was nothing he could do; they had begged him so earnestly that Inspector Ishiguro couldn't resist and had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree to help catch the culprit.

However, Inspector Ishiguro was not a reckless person. He considered that the guy who caused the trouble might be supernatural, so he ordered the other officers to stay at the scene to collect relevant evidence, while he personally gave chase in his car!

But do ghosts really exist in this world?

During the car chase, Inspector Ishiguro couldn't help but ask himself, what if ghosts really exist in this world?

Should they refuse to handle paranormal cases as usual, or should they break with tradition and lead their colleagues to become the first police station in Tokyo, or even in all of Japan, to handle paranormal cases?

That's a bit far-fetched.

Inspector Ishiguro is not the sheriff, so he cannot make decisions for his superior. If this matter is confirmed to be related to the supernatural, it would be best not to handle it.

He couldn't handle it either; how can the police fight against the supernatural?

Forget TV dramas and movies, even novels don't write things like that, right? Even if the supernatural were proven to exist in the world, Inspector Ishiguro wouldn't be stupid enough to go and risk his life!

Soon, Officer Ishiguro's car arrived at a public square. Across from the square was the ward government building, and next to it was the ward police station.

Why did I get home? Inspector Ishiguro was wondering about this when suddenly a little girl appeared in front of the car's windshield.

He was short, had disheveled hair, and was wrapped in an oversized white cloth, but he looked somewhat familiar.

She was waiting at a red light.

Since the traffic light was green, Inspector Ishiguro only glanced at her, eased off the accelerator slightly, and continued driving forward.

Just as the police car crossed the stop line, the little girl suddenly took a step and rushed forward!

Inspector Ishiguro instinctively braked, but it was too late. The tires screeched as they rubbed against the ground before hitting the little girl who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

The police car came to a stop less than half a meter in front of the pedestrian crossing.

"Kid, what's going on?!"

Officer Ishiguro pushed open the car door and got out, walking nervously to the front of the car, his face turning completely white with fright.

The entire area was stained red, filled with the stench of blood. The girl's body lay in front of the car, in a pool of blood.

Officer Ishiguro, being highly experienced, immediately pulled out his phone and dialed for emergency medical assistance when he saw the girl was on the verge of death.

Right at that moment!

"Uncle, no..."

A small, blood-stained hand suddenly snatched his phone away, and Inspector Ishiguro quickly turned around to look!

The girl who was hit is now standing in front of him. Her face is covered in blood, and her hair is as sticky as a mop. Her hands and feet are severely fractured from the impact, and she is limping like a puppet with dislocated joints.

"I rely on!"

Inspector Ishiguro's pupils dilated in shock. He had never seen anything like it before. Who would be able to get up after being hit like that?

Could it be a final burst of energy before death...?

Inspector Ishiguro grew increasingly frightened the more he thought about it!

He reached out to grab the phone back from the girl's hand so he could quickly call an ambulance.

As soon as he took a step forward, the girl gave him a terrifying grin. She swept her hair back, revealing a pale face that looked like a corpse suddenly smiling in a morgue.

"A ghost!" Caught off guard by the sight, Inspector Ishiguro was so frightened that he took several steps back.

Then, his waist hit a rock, he stumbled, and fell to the ground in the mud.

Muddy ground?

How could it be muddy?

Isn't this a main road?

Inspector Ishiguro turned his head in confusion, only to realize that he had not bumped into a rock, but a stone tablet!

No, that's not a stone tablet!

Not only were there photos pasted on it, but some words were also engraved on it. If you look closely, it is clearly a tombstone!

So, the child from just now...

Inspector Ishiguro looked up abruptly and realized that the child was long gone, and the scene before him was no longer a town, but a cemetery filled with a terrifying atmosphere.

Hallucination?

No, this is not an illusion.

His police car is still there.

However, the car had already crashed into the tombstone in front, the front bumper beam had fallen to the ground, and the tombstone had been knocked down.

What's going on? !

At that moment, Inspector Ishiguro spotted a cell phone not far ahead and, feeling like he had found a lifeline, immediately went over and picked it up!

When he picked it up, he realized that this phone didn't just look similar to his own; it was the very same phone that the ghost girl had just stolen!

However, when he excitedly turned on his phone screen, he was disappointed to find that the phone had no network, not even a satellite signal.

And what made Inspector Ishiguro even more suffocated was that his phone was almost out of battery...

Chapter 18 Gold Foil Imperial Coin

The incident of a ghost at a McDonald's restaurant in Nerima Ward resulting in injuries and deaths was quickly uploaded to the internet.

In addition, there was another incident that resulted in the deaths of three teenagers in an alley in Nerima. Because their deaths were so gruesome, passersby believed that it was the work of a ghost.

Therefore, neither of these ghost incidents was uploaded by "BoringWorld777", but was witnessed by many other people at the scene.

In fact, Makoto Araki, the owner of the account "Boring World 777", did not expect Kikuko Yamamura to be so irritable. Not only did she kill the thugs, but she also fought with Daruma for food, causing panic at one point.

Another point is that Makoto Araki is too lazy to post anything related to Kikuko Yamamura. It's pointless to keep posting about the same person over and over again. It's better to lie in bed, eat sunflower seeds, and watch the show!

Makoto Araki was too lazy to post, but that didn't stop Suzune Shimizu from quickly obtaining the relevant information.

"Training horses again?"

However, at this moment, Shimizu Suzune is still in her dormitory. Even if she were to leave now, it would be too late. Judging from the pictures provided by netizens, the scene was a mess, and it is estimated that the urban legend has already run away.

One thing to note is that the urban legend that Shimizu Suzune saw in the old house earlier seemed to only be able to kill people, and did not have such a great destructive ability, otherwise she would have demolished the old house long ago.

This time, judging from the pictures and videos provided by netizens, McDonald's ghost seems a little brutal. Just looking at it through the screen makes Shimizu Rin feel the bloodshed.

It was bloodshed, not fear.

Shimizu Suzune felt that this ghost was different from the traditional ones. Traditional ghosts would create strange and scary illusions, but this ghost only gave her the impression of violence and destruction.

But it doesn't matter; no matter what kind of ghost it is, Shimizu Suzune should be able to drive it away with the beans she has.

She counted and found that she only had two hundred beans left in her hand. At a rate of thirty beans per handful, she could only scatter about six or seven more handfuls at most.

This means she must find new exorcism tools before she runs out of beans, otherwise her ghost-hunting livestream will be difficult to continue.

The little spider saw Shimizu Suzune counting beans and teleported it to Araki Makoto's eyes.

Watching her count the beans, Makoto Araki instantly understood that this shrine maiden probably wanted to find a new item.

arrangement!

[Current - Fear: 5690]

After confirming the quantity of the item, Makoto Araki opened the item shop and found the item he had been longing for.

Gold foil imperial coins.

Crafted from catalpa wood and gold foil paper, a Shinto banner staff exuding an ancient charm was displayed before Makoto Araki.

The purpose of this coin is to dispel any impurities it touches; it has no other magical function.

To be fair, these exorcism tools weren't very expensive. It only cost 500 coins to exchange for this gold foil coin, so Makoto Araki bought it without hesitation.

Planting 500 fear now will bring Shimizu Suzune tens of thousands of fear during her live stream tonight. This is an investment that must be made!

After exchanging for the Imperial Coins, the next thing to exchange for is the Advanced Urban Legend.

He moved his finger, switched to the urban legend category, and looked for suitable urban legends to use for a live-streamed scare.

Soon, Makoto Araki's gaze fell on an urban legend called "Flying Demon," a mid-level urban legend that required 5000 Fear to exchange for, and this was already the cheapest urban legend available.

Is 5000 a lot?

Not much.

It's worth noting that the price of the previous high-level urban legend resurrection incense was as high as 20000. However, the biggest advantage of this money-losing item, the resurrection incense, is that it has an independent vision.

Other cheaper urban legends are just mid-level urban legends and lack independent perspectives.

Furthermore, the more Makoto Araki browsed the shop, the more he realized that all the urban legends were actually money-losing items, and it would take at least a year and a half to slowly recoup his investment by using them.

Unexpectedly, after all this twists and turns, I've ended up back on the path of earning a lot of followers through live streaming.

Shimizu Rinne doesn't stream during the day, so Araki Makoto has a lot of free time. He uses this time to watch a lot of TT Live streams to see if any other lucky streamers are willing to do ghost hunting.

There were no results.

What are the other priests and priestesses doing? Why don't they join this race?

Oh, yes.

At noon, Makoto Araki discovered through monitoring Suzune Shimizu that Akihiko Noguchi also wanted to start a live stream of ghost hunting.
