As a result, when the Metropolitan Police Department was about to conduct further searches, they were stopped by public security personnel.

The Japanese public security and police are two different concepts. The public security deals with national-level public opinion, thoughts, potential threats, prevention of terrorist attacks, and intelligence gathering. It is more like a weakened secret service.

The police said they were prohibited from entering the areas above the 12th floor and the basement.

The angry Inspector Megure had no choice but to report the matter after reaching the conclusion that this was related to a supernatural case. His superiors decided to let it go and leave all follow-up matters to the public security.

Before they could calm down for a while, they received news that a mansion in Shinagawa Rokuhonme had been attacked.

So they rushed to Roppongi again.

By the time the Metropolitan Police Department arrived at the scene of the attack, the three men who had single-handedly caused Tokyo's crime rate to skyrocket had already returned to their lair from the sewers.

"Phew! I'm so tired. This should be enough. By the way, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department might see us when they check the road footage, right?"

Kazuma lay on the sofa somewhat heartlessly.

"It's okay. When I was getting the weapons earlier, I heard that Kappa say that there were two consecutive incidents. They thought we were a special force that was only responsible for politicians. Then the politicians thought we were a special force that was only responsible for civil servants. The royal family thought we were special people created by the government. In addition, our information showed obvious signs of being tampered with by internal personnel. The government thought we were used by the chaebol to settle the matter, and the chaebol thought the Americans were coming to deal with them.

Out of mutual fear, they each established their own special forces, while accusing others of disregarding internal unity and supporting special forces. No one pursued us."

Kerry explained that he had heard from the village chief some of the opinions of the Japanese upper class about them.

"So, we are being treated as their lackeys?"

He Zhen curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

"To be precise, they all think we are lackeys of their enemies."

Kirito, however, was still somewhat unhappy.

"What's wrong? Are you suffering from depression?"

Kazuma elbowed Kirito's waist.

"Oh...it's okay. I think we should save some of that medicine so that when we are hungry, we can use it to feed some animals and then kill them. We shouldn't destroy all the medicine in a moment of anger."

"Well, it's just a small matter. Don't look so sad. Why don't we do the same?"

"That's right, but we have to make sure it won't be leaked at all. There are still risks."

The two of them comforted Kirito.

After saying that, Kazuma made an excuse to go to the restroom, and when he got there, he took out two bottles of medicine he brought from the hospital with a guilty conscience. He originally thought that since Kirito said so, he would just destroy them. After thinking about it, he decided to ask everyone to install a safe in their room, and then locked the things in the safe.

Chapter 104: What level of status does it take to enter my house?

Although the three of them spent a lot of effort on the investigation this time, it only took a few hours to solve the problem.

And the combat part wasn't that difficult either.

Instead, it took some effort to break into the luxurious residential area and kill the only researcher who was not in the hospital.

After the three of them confirmed that the officials from the Ministry of Environment had no official travel plans, they began to study the Yakuza on the new list.

Everyone took a short rest, and the next night no one from the Metropolitan Police Department came to visit, so the three of them continued to collect intelligence.

But having said that, Kazuma and Keri have already started a fight between two players, but only one person can play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Only Kirito was operating three computers at the same time, looking for the old man who had instigated the gangsters to cause trouble, the bureaucrats, and the yakuza.

Kazuma ordered takeout.

This time, since I wasn’t in a hurry, I ordered some hot pot ingredients from a cheaper food delivery platform.

As a result, the person who came to deliver the food was actually an old man who was strolling around in the middle of the night.

The old man even enthusiastically introduced himself as a retired man with nothing to do, so he took the delivery as exercise. He chatted with He Zhen for a while in front of the door before leaving.

However, the delivery time is indeed a bit slow. It takes two hours from the time the order is placed.

As the old man strolled past the street lights at night, his shadow was cast on the wall, slowly moving and lengthening as he walked.

"Ok?"

The old man wiped his eyes in surprise.

He just seemed to see another shadow passing by his own shadow quickly in the opposite direction as he moved.

"It's really old. It's probably a wild cat."

The old man scratched his head and continued walking out.

At the same time, the row of houses opposite the Kerry family's house.

A familiar place, a familiar group of old men and women, standing in the shadows without turning on the lights, staring at the Kerry family.

"Here they come. Never mind what they do, as long as they are alive after tonight."

But except for the leader who had a ferocious look in his eyes, everyone else was trembling.

"Shadow-sama...Shadow-sama..."

They murmured something but did not dare to raise their heads.

They gathered here almost every night before going to bed, staring at the opposite side, waiting for the thing in the house to harm these young people.

As a result, there was no movement for several days.

The strange things in the house seemed to have disappeared, and there was no movement at all.

They were puzzled. Weren't they fine before?

Could it be that the spirit transformed from an adolescent Sakura girl has also gone through puberty and is unable to harm young men?

But it's okay, Shadow-sama will solve all the problems.

Although even they didn't know what the Shadow Lord was, because they couldn't see anything but a shadow.

However, the three people who had just experienced some twists and turns had no time to care about what was happening on the street.

The three of them sat around the dinner table, and Kirito and Kazuma put their hands together and clapped their hands.

"I'm gonna start now!"

(X2)

When Kerry saw this, he followed suit by clapping his hands and muttering something.

"Earth Explosion Sky Star!"

"Hey, you better be thankful for the ingredients!"

Kazuma muttered in dissatisfaction.

"I sliced you up and ate you. Can you forgive me if I say thank you?

This is the most respectful live broadcast room on the entire Internet, right? "

Kerry smiled and put the beef into the hot pot.

This time, because Kerry enjoyed the food so much last time, the three of them tried the compound dipping sauce recommended by Kerry.

“Mmm… so spicy!”

Kazuma stuck out his tongue in frustration.

Kirito nodded repeatedly and said that he would eat like this from now on.

The three of them were happily eating hot pot. In the middle of the meal, Asuna made a video call to Kirito. The white steam spread throughout the room, and the chopsticks never stopped moving.

However, the three of them were stunned at the same moment, and then looked at each other in confusion.

They seemed to have just felt a momentary impulse, coming from the side of the house, but that impulse disappeared.

"Maybe that ghost is out for a walk. Let's keep eating."

Kazuma explained and everyone continued eating.

But at the same time, a shadow had crawled along the side of Kerry's and the other two's house to the second floor, and then the third floor.

This supernatural scene fell into the eyes of those people across the room, and they were all terrified and delighted.

"Okay, now, once they're dead we can have some peace. No matter what they are, don't even think about escaping this time."

At this moment, the shadow on the wall of Kerry's house rose higher and higher, spreading over the windowsill of Kerry's master bedroom on the third floor, spreading to his desk, and then downwards...

The next step failed because a statue covered with a red cloth was placed on the desk by Kerry.

“Galalalal…”

Some strange low sounds were heard in the empty room.

Then the red cloth was slowly lifted up.

"Ouch!"

The people on the opposite side who were watching excitedly suddenly saw the shadow that had entered the room rush out from the windowsill like crazy, as if they, ordinary people, had seen a ghost.

They even ran around the streets like headless flies.

The three people sitting in the lobby on the first floor looked at each other strangely again. They just felt the impulse again, but this time the location was Kerry's room.

"Strange, what are you doing today? That lady who looked like a ghost before, she wasn't this diligent except for hiding in the mirror to peek at me when I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night."

Kerry scratched his hair in confusion, but decided to go up and take a look.

But when Kerry opened the door, everything was normal. The statue was quietly staying where it should be, even covered with a cloth.

Then Kerry continued to eat hot pot with confusion.

But while the people here were enjoying their meal, the expressions of the people across the street were not so pleasant.

What...what did you do?

Watching them, Lord Shadow was running from left to right, right to left, on the street like a frightened wild dog, going into this house and then that house, but he didn't dare to go back to the house that was supposed to be his target.

All of them stared with their eyes wide open in astonishment.

No, what's in that room?

They were terrified and wanted to flee the street immediately. If the shadow found them, they would be finished.

Fortunately, a person appeared on the street, which made the shadow seem to have found its target.

Because she was under the minimum working age for minors in Japan and her father did not want to go out and sponsor her, Shoko Toyokawa could only do the same work as those without household registration, some illegal labor that paid little and was hard and tiring.

The girl who had just washed dishes for several hours in a restaurant and was told in a disgusted manner that she didn't need to come tomorrow because she was washing dishes too slowly, and who didn't even get her salary for today, was now pursing her lips tightly, locking her tears in her eyes, not letting her weakness show.

The salt water obscured her vision, turning it into a glass kaleidoscope, so that even looking at the streetlights would reflect a thousand different lights like glass beads.

Thinking that I still have to go back to study, and that I must get into Yuqiu's school that values admission rate, and then get a scholarship, I feel suffocated and even want to die.

But she didn't notice that when she opened the door, a shadow slowly followed her in.

Chapter 105: There are bottles and cans all over the floor, and I still have to deal with you.

"Click!"

While working, Xiangzi encountered a black-hearted boss who exploited underage labor for free. After trying his best but failing to defeat him, he returned to his home.

Shoko Toyokawa came to her and her father's room, opened the door and as expected saw her father lying on the ground like a paralyzed zombie.

He had clearly said he wanted to cheer himself up before moving here, but he ended up not lasting more than three days. He even said in the morning that he would go back to read the newspaper and submit his resume, but now he is lying on the ground again.

Gritting his teeth, Xiangzi began to clean up quickly, turned off the TV in his father's room, then lit a desk lamp in the room that was filled with the smell of alcohol. Despite his drowsy body, he found his schoolbag in the corner and started reviewing with his pen.

Time passed by little by little, and sleepiness came over her. She looked at her phone and it was already 12 o'clock. On the lock screen was a long message from her bandmate Nagasaki Suyo, asking why she had less and less time to rehearse.

I was conflicted for a moment, but still didn't reply. I chose to pretend that I didn't stay up late at night and continued to fight a desperate battle with my homework.

Just when Shoko Toyokawa was fully focused on her homework, she suddenly heard a noise behind her.

"Boom!"

There was a crisp sound of metal knocking.

Xiangzi's father suddenly stretched out his hand like the opening animation in Plants vs. Zombies.

"Ah! Xiangzi, you're back?"
