In Zongman, the evil spirits are eliminated physically.

"Hina, what supernatural thing happened to you again?"

"What do you mean by 'again'? It seems like I encounter it often. But the word 'encounter' is not used correctly. I do encounter supernatural events often, in the physical sense." Haruna was about to refute Ruiko, but found that she really did.

"I did encounter a supernatural event, but I'm not sure what kind it was. I'll call the president and ask him when I get home tonight."

"So."

"What on earth did you encounter?"

Reiko walked up to Hina with a smile on her face as if she had discovered an urban legend. Although what Hina encountered now could be said to be a supernatural legend, it didn't matter. Ever since she came into contact with the things in the other world, Reiko had become an expert in both urban and supernatural legends.

Haruna truthfully told Ruiko about her sudden memory recovery, skipping over some things that were not suitable to be said, such as the fact that the armor of that body had grown larger and she couldn't help but touch it for a long time when she woke up in the morning.

"Could it be, a soul swap?" Lei Zi came to the conclusion.

"Look, those days, Hina, you acted like a country girl coming to the city. You were super curious about things like vending machines, elevators, shopping malls, and coffee shops." Ruizi pointed out the strange things Hina did during those two days. "And based on what you said, Hina, you spent those two days in a very remote village. So that makes sense."

"For unknown reasons, you, Hina, swapped bodies with a girl from the countryside of Hida City. After a day, you both returned to your own bodies, but your memories are now blurred. If no one else mentioned this incident, you wouldn't even think it was strange that a part of your memory was blurred."

"Why is she set as a girl from the countryside of Hida City?" Hina asked curiously.

"We don't know who she is, so we can only give her a random setting." Ruizi shrugged. "After all, we just learned about Hida City in the island nation geography class this afternoon, and I remember it most vividly."

"Just now, Hina, you didn't call senior to ask because Hatsuharu was here. Now that Hatsuharu is gone, I know senior too. You should ask senior now. The sooner you ask, the sooner you can feel at ease."

"I want to, too." Haruna helplessly picked up her phone. The screen was pitch black, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't turn on the power button on the side. "I forgot to charge my phone last night, and it only had 3% battery when I got to the coffee shop."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Leizi took out her own phone. "Just use mine. I exchanged contact information with Senior last time."

When she turned on her phone and lit up the screen, Leizi discovered that Hatsuharu, whom she had just separated from, had actually sent her a message. She clicked on it and saw that it was a pitch-black video.

"Did Hatsuharu find a cute stray cat and take a video for me?" Ruizi casually clicked on the video. "It feels like something only Misaka-senpai could do, lying on the ground late at night taking pictures of cute cats."

Reiko clicked on the video sent by Hatsuharu with a smile on her face, and then her smile disappeared instantly. Seeing Reiko's changed expression, Hina walked to Reiko's side strangely, and then Hina's expression also changed suddenly.

The phone fell to the ground while filming the video, resulting in a very tilted and strange angle, but you can already see what's going on in this early spring video.

Two men wearing masks covered Hatsuharu's mouth and pressed her arms, pulled her into a van, and drove away. The whole process took only a few seconds. Leizi was able to receive this video because Hatsuharu wrote a help app when she was bored. In an emergency, the video can be automatically opened and sent to the designated person.

"I'm going to save Hatsuharu!"

"Tear, wait a minute!"

Ruizi gritted her teeth and was about to run in the direction where Hatsuharu had left. Hina quickly put her arms around Ruizi's waist.

"Tear, we are powerless, if we go there alone we will just be delivering food."

"I know magic. I know the magic that Miss Lulutia taught me."

"But isn't your magic all about daily life, without much offensive power?!"

"I, I..."

For the first time, Ruizi felt that her magic was too weak. In fact, it was not that Ruizi's magic was too weak, but that the level of development was too low. The magic that Lulutia taught her looked harmless, but in fact, it was as cruel as a knife stabbing the throat.

Magic to boil water, magic to move things, magic to make pushing things less laborious, magic to change colors, which scientifically translates to magic to boil body fluids, magic to increase the strength of fixed objects, magic to eliminate friction, magic to change the light absorption band.

"Let's contact the president right now. With his abilities, he'll definitely be able to rescue Uiharu-san safely and immediately."

"Yes, I'll call Senior right now!"

Back to a little while ago, Hatsuharu, who had just separated from Haruna Ruiko, couldn't suppress her curiosity at all.

With a cry of "I'm curious" without any special effects or voice, Chuchun took out her mobile phone and started searching for Ouyang Xuan. However, of course, apart from the agency, most of the information was unavailable. She could only barely find some useless information such as that Ouyang Xuan was a mainlander studying abroad.

Ouyang Xuan's identity is hidden by two groups of people, one is the supernatural province that has always existed in the background of the story, and the other is the Shigong family. With the efforts of these two groups of people, it is impossible to find more information about Ouyang Xuan from the Internet.

"It seems that this senior is not an ordinary person." Chuchun said with a little surprise, and then opened the APP she developed herself.

"That organization called Licorice should have some information on that senior. I'll check its database. If I still can't find it, I'll have to go home and use my computer to look through the information in the Supernatural Province."

It is impossible for Chuchun to have the authority over Licorice and the Ministry of Supernatural. The reason why she was so nonchalant as if taking information from these two institutions was like going home was simply because it was indeed no different from going home. The networks and databases of these institutions were like the Maginot Line to Chuchun. You can't say that it was useless, but this function only existed on paper.

"Hey, they've upgraded the database's defenses? Amazing!" Hatsuharu exclaimed. With a few casual clicks of her fingers, she bypassed Lycoris's lavishly constructed network defenses and gained access to the internal database. "Judging from their techniques, it must be that hacker named Walnut. Not bad, not bad. Much better than the last time I saw him."

"Hmm, hmm, it turns out that senior is not an ordinary person, he is from the other world..."

When Hatsuharu was checking the highest-level information of Likolis about some people in the other world, Walnut in Likoliko was already overwhelmed and screamed.

"Three seconds! I worked so hard on this defense for three months, and I only lasted three seconds!" Hu Tao looked at the page on her computer in disbelief.

"It's night time now, don't shout or you'll get complained about." Qianshu opened the closet door and asked Hu Tao to speak more quietly.

"That Gate God has never taken the initiative to attack us. As long as we don't touch Xuedu's information and network, she won't even pay attention to us. What's wrong with her?"

Under Qianzhu's suspicious gaze, Takina also walked in with a mobile phone in her hand, and it seemed that she had just finished a call.

"What's wrong with her?" Takina asked curiously.

"I don't know. When I came in, I saw her yelling and screaming in the closet."

"Did he lose the online Landlord game?"

"It's not that serious." Walnut leaned back in her chair, feeling lost. "It's just that the network defense I gave you for the Lycoris database was easily bypassed by the Gate God. Three seconds. I worked hard to build this defense for three months, and the Gate God bypassed it in just three seconds."

When Kurumi said this, even the usually careless Qianshu realized what she had just heard. Was Licorice's network hacked again?

"What happened!? Kurumi!" Takina jumped up.

"Literally. Your Lycoris network has been hacked again, and this time even I can't do anything about it."

"What is he looking for? Lycoris's list or the internal staff's list?"

"Let me take a look." Kurumi tapped a few times on the keyboard, and a bunch of pages popped up that neither Chizuka nor Takina could understand. "She's looking for—Ouyang's information?"

"No, she's crazy. Why would she come to a surface world department like Licorice to look for information on Ouyang? If she doesn't want to go to the Supernatural Province, why would she come to Licorice? After searching the Supernatural Province, which is the main course, she came back to eat Licorice, which is the dessert."

"Looking for information about seniors?" Qianshu also felt strange.

"Kurune, then you'd better find a way to stop her as soon as possible. Aren't you the number one hacker in the island country?" Takina urged.

"Ahhh, I'll try my best." Hu Tao also gathered her courage. "Menshen has never appeared on the Internet outside of Xuedu before. This time, you come out in a big way to find Ouyang's information. I don't know what you want to do, but this challenge—"

“——I picked up!”

With an extreme desire to fight and a desire to have a good fight, Kurumi slammed his hands on the keyboard, ready to have a good fight with Hatsuharu. Then, Hatsuharu retreated.

After quickly searching through all the information about Ouyang Xuan in the Lycoris database, Chuchun left along the entrance passage simply and skillfully, just like leaving home. And Chuchun's trip was not in vain. When he left, he also filled the loophole he had used to enter for Hu Tao, to ensure that no one else would use this method to enter the Lycoris database in the future.

Chitsuka and Takina didn't know that Hatsuharu had already retreated. They only saw Kurumi wanting to fight Hatsuharu, but then her body froze in place, not moving at all. No one knew what she was doing?

"Damn you, door god! You just turned around and ran away, not even giving me a chance to challenge or retaliate. I curse you, you bastard, to only be able to buy room temperature Coke from now on, and that's Pepsi room temperature toilet cleaner!"

Chapter 16 Responsibilities of the Disciplinary Committee

"There is too little information about this senior in Lycoris. Apart from his name and sect, there is no extra information at all." Chuchun held her lips together, feeling unhappy that the information she had spent so much time finding was of no use.

"Forget it. For information about the other world, I'd better go to the Supernatural Province. They have less information there."

Hatsuharu went into the Supernatural Province to look for information as easily as going home to get some. Kurumi scolded Hatsuharu in front of Liko Liko, saying that it was not fair to just run away after doing the job. The other person was the complete opposite of both of them. He was laughing wildly.

"Gate God! This time you've walked into my own trap!"

Wearing a square robot mask, the hacker named Machine Tai was shouting in the dark room. Even with the mask on, one could feel the immense joy emanating from him from the inside out.

"Originally, with the short time you were in Lycorice, I could only find your location within four kilometers. Now that you've gone to the Supernatural Province, I'll be able to reduce your location to within one kilometer in no time!"

Although it is impossible for a hacker who never leaves the house to find a person whose appearance is unknown within a kilometer radius in a crowded place, it is different for Machine Tai. He now has an ally.

"All drones take off! I must find him tonight. That gap that all the hackers on the island want to cross, the Gatekeeper!"

"Hello, hacker." The dark room suddenly lit up and Majima, wrapped in bandages, walked into the room.

"The person you mentioned who can severely injure Licorice is this gate god?"

"That's right. As long as I can get rid of or capture the Gate God, I will be invincible in the entire island nation's hacker world. I can easily hack into any department or system you want. Then, whether you launch a terrorist attack or assassinate an official, it will be as easy as eating."

"Yo." Majima looked at the machine with suspicion. "Are you the second-best hacker? If you kill the first one, you will be the first."

"Don't judge Gatekeeper by those superficial rankings. She doesn't even bother to participate in any rankings because she's too strong. She didn't even bother to participate in the competitions in the past two years, otherwise she would have definitely taken first place. She didn't even come to the competition to determine the strongest hackers in the entire island nation. What a self-confident arrogance, Gatekeeper."

Two years ago, when they were holding this so-called hacker ranking competition, Chuchun was attending the discipline committee training with Kuroko and had no time to play with them.

"Really? Then I'm really looking forward to your next work. Let's use this guy who affects the balance to perform my first attempt to find balance in the island nation."

"Give me the hacker's photo and I'll have my people go find her right now."

"Photos? How could a hacker leak something like that?" the machine said matter-of-factly. "I've already pinpointed her approximate location. The radius has been narrowed down to one kilometer. All you have to do is capture and kill anyone within that kilometer who's using their phone to access documents."

After hearing what Kinita said, Majima was stunned at first, then he kicked Kinita against the wall and pulled out a gun to put it against his chin.

"Hey, hey, hey, hacker." Majima came closer to the robot. "Do you know how many people there are? Give me an accurate picture or description."

"How could something like that be possible?" The machine was so frightened that it felt like it was about to piss itself. "That's a gate god. It's already incredibly impressive to be able to do that. It's only within a one-kilometer radius, and I'm also looking at documents. There definitely aren't many of them."

"What if the door god went home to look at it? Why would she look at such an important document in public?"

"I, well..." The machine hadn't considered this possibility, but he couldn't back down. This might be his only chance. "If you don't go, all your future actions might be discovered by the Gate God and reported to Licorice. Unlike us free agents, the Gate God is affiliated with the school. He's an official, and he won't be polite to terrorists like you."

"I'm not confident I can win the battle for network control against the Gate God. If I want to get rid of him, the only way is to physically eliminate him."

"It better be this way."

Majima released Robota and then arranged for his men to do it. They were terrorists, not Shocker, and they would not arrest people in public. They would monitor and track them first, and then arrest them or kill them directly in secret when they reached a place with fewer people.

Back to the present, when Ruizi and Hina anxiously called Ouyang Xuan for help, Hatsuharu was almost scared to tears.

"Hey, hey, hey, this girl doesn't look like a very good hacker." The younger brother looked at the weak Chuchun.

"Who knows what those hackers look like? Anyway, let's just drag her to the TV tower. As for whether it's the hacker called Menshen, let the hacker here judge it."

Hackers? What are these people doing here? I can't be targeted. I don't see anyone tracking my location. Could it be that some powerful hacker who I've never seen before has appeared?

Out of her instinct as a disciplinary committee member, Chuchun tried hard to calm down, but this terrible thing that she had never experienced before made it impossible for Chuchun to calm down completely. She could only try hard to look through the car window to determine where she was being captured, so as to wait for an opportunity to send a distress signal to the outside world.

Seeing how weak and frail Hatsuharu looked, Majima's men completely relaxed their vigilance. Not only did they not knock Hatsuharu unconscious, they didn't even put a blindfold on her. They simply tied her up and threw her into the car. They didn't block her mouth, and they didn't even tie her legs up, so they weren't afraid that Hatsuharu would jump out of the car and escape.

After the initial panic, Chuchun tried hard to calm down. Chuchun, who looks soft and gentle on ordinary days, is not a ball of cotton that can be easily squeezed when something really happens. She looks weak and harmless, but when it comes to the last moment, she will fight to the death and even splatter your blood even if she dies.

"Are you okay?"

When Chuchun heard the sound coming from inside the car, he realized that there were two other people in the car besides himself.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

"I'm fine. Who are you?" Chuchun caught the light coming in from the window and saw the person who was talking.

The two people looked about the same age as himself, and were wearing the same school uniform. It seemed that they were classmates who went shopping together after class. Like himself, they were suddenly kidnapped.

"It's okay. Those people seem to be looking for some hackers. We are not their target. They shouldn't hurt us."

"Really?" the girl asked timidly.

"Really? We're just a few ordinary schoolgirls. It's useless for him to arrest us, right? Maybe once they find the hacker, they'll let us go."

After hearing Chuchun's white lie, the two girls seemed to feel relieved, but along with their hearts, which had been lifted up, tears also fell. They had been so nervous before that they had forgotten to cry.

"Yumi."

"Machiko, I'm so scared, really scared. We were just reading cram school materials on the way. Why would they kidnap us?"

The two girls were scared, and Chuchun was also very scared, but compared to being scared, her responsibilities as a discipline committee member took priority. Although her responsibility as a discipline committee member was still within the school capital of the Superpower Academy, this did not prevent Chuchun from using this identity to cheer herself up.

Think of a solution quickly. I learned this during the discipline committee training. What should I do if I am kidnapped and controlled? Think about it quickly. Think about what to do. Chuchun, calm down. You must calm down first.

As the scenery outside the window became more and more familiar, and then stopped, Hatsuharu realized that this place was the TV tower that had been abandoned a few years ago due to Licorice's actions. Because the demolition cost was too high, it had been standing on the outskirts of Tokyo like an unfinished building. It was said that it had become a gathering place for many monsters and ghosts. Because supernatural events often occurred, many people came here for so-called adventures.

For someone who is afraid of ghosts in early spring, this place where supernatural events happen frequently and hauntings are commonplace is simply a devil's den.

The door of the van was pulled open forcefully. It was the two younger brothers who kidnapped Chuchun and the other two girls.

"You guys are really unlucky. Majima-sama just sent us a message saying there's no need to find any hackers to bring it over."

"If you don't look for hackers anymore, can you let us go?" The girl named Yumi said happily.

"Haha." Hearing this, the younger brother couldn't help but laugh, "Our big brother means that we can just kill you right here, no need to bring you up."

"I didn't expect to capture a few students from Gakuto right after arriving in Tokyo. I heard they're a group of people with super powers. I wonder if they can survive after being shot through the brain. We'll go up there later. I wonder if we can see any living super powers."

"Those guys who gained special abilities and disrupted the balance, by the time we get there, Brother Majima will have already dealt with them all. It's probably better to go up and take a look at their bodies."

"You want to kill those students!?" Chuchun shouted. She didn't expect that this group of people could actually capture some students in the school.

"It's not just the students in Xuedu who have to die, you too." The younger brother pulled out his pistol. "If you want to blame someone, blame you for running so close to that hacker. We worked so hard to capture everyone within a kilometer. It was very hard for us."

The black muzzle of the gun emitted a terrifying cold light under the moonlight. The two girls burst into tears just by being pointed at by the gun. They bit their lips tightly and dared not cry out loud, for fear of irritating the younger brother on the opposite side and making him shoot directly.
