In Zongman, the evil spirits are eliminated physically.

When Hatsuharu first enrolled, Haruna felt very strange about the Discipline Committee station she was supposed to visit. Aren't Discipline Committee members supposed to be the students who manage discipline in their respective schools? Even if there were to be a Discipline Committee station, shouldn't it be set up inside the school? Why set it up off-campus, and why would it have to be staffed by Discipline Committee members from several schools? Could this even be considered joint enforcement?

Could this be a mysterious department called the Discipline Committee? A security agency used to manage and monitor psychics and Onmyoji exorcists in the school?

"What am I thinking about?"

Sitting in the tram, Hina smiled and slapped her head, feeling amused by the inexplicable thoughts that popped up in her mind. Even if it was a mysterious organization, they should have asked adults to do it. How could they ask a group of middle school students of the same age as her to be in charge?

"Have you heard about that? The naked woman in the forest outside of Manoyama City."

"The forest where monsters are said to be haunted."

"That's right, let's go and take a look."

"Eh~~ I don't want to. I've heard that there are monsters in that place."

"There aren't any monsters in this world. The point is that the naked woman has a fantastic figure. It's worth going to see her once."

"If you want to see something like that, you can just look for it online. I don't want to go to that monster forest. No, absolutely not."

Hina looked in the direction of the voice and saw three male high school students having a heated discussion. The topic they were discussing was the same one that Ruiko and Hatsuharu had discussed in the classroom, the strange naked woman in the Monster Forest.

What attracted Hina's attention was not the naked woman. Hina could see such things every day when she took a bath. What was so novel about it?

What attracted Hina's attention was the word "monster". Hina, who had already stepped half a foot into the other world, was now very sensitive to things like monsters and evil spirits. Especially when Hina knew that those evil spirits could exist near her living space, it made Hina feel even more creepy.

After separating from Ouyang Xuan, Yang Cai kept her eyes closed to prevent herself from seeing those horrible and disgusting evil spirits. She couldn't defeat those evil spirits, so it was okay to just ignore them and act like an ostrich.

"Zhongbang! You're not interested in what boys dream of. Have you become gay?!"

"Zhongbang, if you don't want to become gay, come explore the Monster Forest with us tomorrow!"

"Are you two crazy? That's a monster forest. There are monsters there. Monsters that can suddenly turn into necks and eat people. You went to that kind of place just for some inexplicable woman. You're the ones who are wrong!"

"Zhongbang, a so-called man is someone who will risk his life for milk and farts!"

"I don't want to waste my life in such a weird place! I'm still a virgin and I haven't found a girlfriend yet!"

As the topics of the male high school students became increasingly off-topic, Hina could no longer bear to listen and turned her head to cover her face. Only then did Hina notice that a strange girl had been sitting next to her.

Her long black hair was very beautiful, draped softly over her shoulders, but her face couldn't be seen clearly, as her head was lowered deeply, as if she was avoiding something.

"Um, are you okay?" Hina asked cautiously.

"Ah, me?" Seeing someone talking to him, Jianzi was startled. "I'm fine, I'm fine, just a little sleepy."

"Ahahahaha, I'm so tired from class that I can't help but want to take a nap."

"High school students have it so hard," Hina sighed.

"It's okay, but my situation is quite special."

As he spoke, Jianzi looked around the carriage cautiously. The terrifying evil spirits that usually appeared in front of him all the time had now disappeared. It was as if there was some kind of barrier in the carriage that made those evil spirits avoid it.

"Ding Dong, we've arrived at Baker Station. Passengers getting off at this station please be prepared and get off on the left side of the direction of travel."

When the station announcement sounded, Hina put on her backpack and stood up to get off the bus. Before leaving, Hina did not forget to show concern for this senior who seemed to be in a strange state.

"Well... if you're really feeling unwell, you can get off the car and take a rest. If you keep holding it in, it's easy to hurt yourself."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm much better now, thank you for your concern."

"Then please take care of yourself, senior."

"I will."

Jianzi smiled and waved his hand. Only after the car door closed again did Jianzi breathe a sigh of relief.

Hey, I don’t know when I can meet the people in the car yesterday. As long as I can find a way to restrain and dispel these evil spirits, I won’t have to pretend not to see them every day. It’s really hard. When I went to the toilet today, I saw a ghost head in it as soon as I opened the toilet. I was almost scared to pee. Fortunately, he left, otherwise I don’t know what to do in the morning.

But it's really rare to have a time like today when there are no evil spirits at all. It would be great if there was a period of time every day when there were no evil spirits.

Jianzi's little wish did not last long. Ten seconds after Hina left the tram car, the evil spirits who were afraid of the yang energy aroused by Hina and did not dare to approach the car at all, rushed into the car along with the crowd getting on the train.

After maintaining a relaxed posture for just a few minutes, Jianzi had to return to the state that Hina saw at the beginning, lowering her head and pretending that she saw nothing. However, she soon could no longer maintain this posture, because an evil spirit with ten eyes on its face stretched its face up from the bottom of the tram, and those ten eyes just happened to look at Jianzi's two eyes.

Chapter 16 My car is a little faster

After getting off the tram, Yang Cai ran in one direction as soon as she exited the station. She had just walked this road yesterday, so today she walked much faster. After about ten minutes of walking, she arrived at the inconspicuous small building where she had been yesterday. However, unlike yesterday when there was a luxury car waiting and bodyguards around, today only Ouyang Xuan was there downstairs.

"Good afternoon, President."

"Good afternoon, Amano." Ouyang Falcon nodded and greeted, "It's only 4:30 now. You're much earlier than scheduled, so you still have an hour and a half."

"This is my first job, and I wanted to be serious about it, so I started early."

"Since you're here early, let's go there early," Ouyang Xuan said. "Today's mission is mainly investigation, and there may not be any combat. If you don't mind the hassle of your backpack, you can bring it with you to the scene."

"Hmm..." Hina weighed the rather heavy backpack on her back and decided it would be better to leave it at the office first.

After putting down his schoolbag, Ouyang Xuan was no longer in his original seat. He sat in a white Honda car that was everywhere on the street. When he saw Yang Cai getting out, he called her to get in.

"The president got his driver's license when he was in college. Is it for the convenience of going out and having fun?" Hina said as she sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt.

"I don't have a driver's license."

"!?"

Hina's hand trembled, and the half-inserted seat belt was shaken out.

"President!?"

"Automatic cars are just like toys. What toys do you need?" Ouyang Sun's expression remained unchanged. "I used to drive my master's old car down the mountain in China, and I never had an accident in the island country."

"And even if there's a minor accident, I can just ask the old guy to sort it out for me."

Although he didn't have a driver's license, Ouyang Xuan didn't lie. His driving skills were pretty good and he started very steadily. If Yang Cai hadn't seen the trees next to him receding, she wouldn't have noticed that the car had already started.

"Amano, remember to fasten your seat belt." Ouyang Jun glanced at Hina beside him and urged.

"I, President." Hina fastened her seatbelt pitifully. "President, I'm only a middle school student now. I still have a long way to go in my life. Please don't drive too fast."

"I drive very steadily, don't worry."

Ouyang Xuan told Yang Cai not to worry, but Yang Cai, who was watching closely from the side, was not at ease.

It was obvious that Ouyang Xuan's foot on the accelerator was very dishonest, and he always felt like he was going to step on the accelerator to death. Yang Cai only felt like a child who had secretly run onto a slave ship, and was being put in an airtight cage, anxiously waiting for an unknown fate ahead.

The car drove steadily, passing through the bustling city and heading towards the empty suburbs.

"President, what is our mission this time?" The car drove smoothly for more than half an hour, and Hina felt relieved.

"It's just an investigation into a paranormal phenomenon." Ouyang Xuan's free right hand pointed to the back row, where several folders were placed. "There's some information given to me by the client in there. You can take a look at it first to familiarize yourself with it."

"Usually, there are only two kinds of work I do outside the home: exorcism and investigation."

"If it's exorcism, there's usually a fight going on. You just need to find a place to hide." Ouyang Xuan lifted his clothes to show Yang Cai the pistol on his waist, and then said, "Investigation is much simpler. Some people think there's something strange happening in their home or village, so they'll entrust us to investigate. In most cases, it's just a formality, and they're just scaring themselves."

"It always feels weird when the president says this," Hina said. "Exorcists shouldn't just investigate and say there's a serious evil spirit or paranormal activity here, and that you have to pay extra to exorcise it."

"Those are liars, I'm not."

"Amano." Ouyang Falcon turned the topic back to Hina, "Did you do anything yesterday?"

"Yesterday?" Hina thought for a moment, "No, what's wrong, President?"

"It's okay, just asking."

Because Ouyang Xuan's expression was as cold and expressionless as usual throughout the whole process, Yang Cai was not sure what Ouyang Xuan meant. Maybe he just ran out of topics and asked her.

After leaving the office, Hina went to the hospital, visited the shrine on the rooftop, said goodbye to her mother and left the hospital, passed by the supermarket to buy ingredients for dinner, went home to cook for her younger brother, searched for some information about exorcists and evil spirits on her mobile phone, and then went to bed. Hina didn't think she had done anything strange yesterday.

When he first saw Yang Cai today, Ouyang Xuan was not very sure. He thought it was an illusion caused by the large crowds on the street. After he got in the car and drove to the suburbs, and there was no one else to interfere, Ouyang Xuan was sure that in just one day, Yang Cai's yang energy had increased several times, as if she had suddenly received the blessing of a god or the teachings of a master.

Practicing martial arts requires one to be down-to-earth and take one step at a time. Yesterday, Yang Cai was just a person lying at the door of the other world and peeking inside. How could her Ren and Du meridians be opened in one night? Moreover, Ouyang Xuan could feel a familiar breath from Yang Cai's surging yang energy, which was the breath of a talisman.

"Amano, if anything happens, remember to tell me."

"Hmm? Okay, President! I'll tell you if there's anything." Although she didn't know why Ouyang Jun suddenly cared about her, Hina still agreed.

The car was slowly driving out of the city. Ouyang Xuan was driving seriously. Yang Cai also took this opportunity to look through the information that Ouyang Xuan had left on the back seat. Not to mention the evil spirit incident, the cover of this folder gave Yang Cai a heavy blow.

[The Chupacabra Kingdom Massacre of Naked Women! ]

"President, this is... the wrong thing?" Hina asked cautiously.

"No." Ouyang Xuan glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and said affirmatively.

"But with this name, are we going abroad?"

"We're just leaving the county. We're going to Jianyeshan City."

For a moment, Hina couldn't figure out if Ouyang Falcon was joking or serious. Even taking the train from Tokyo to Manoyama City takes quite a while. Was Ouyang Falcon planning to drive himself? How long would that take?

"Well, there's no one here." Ouyang Falcon checked the left and right mirrors and the rearview mirror to confirm that no one was nearby. He then said, "Tianye, sit tight. I'm going to speed up."

“Huh? Eh hey hey hey!!”

Compared to her messy head, Hina's body moved even faster. When Ouyang Jun just finished speaking, Hina grabbed the seat belt tightly with both hands. Only by fixing the bag firmly in front of her body could she slightly relieve the panic feeling from the bottom of her heart.

"President, what do you want—"

Before Hina could utter the word "what", she felt a powerful push coming from the seat behind her, pinning her to the seat tightly. Her body seemed to be embedded in it. Hina could only watch blankly as countless scenes passed by her. Before Hina could even see what that blurry black shadow was, she had already flashed past.

If you pull your view out of the car and keep raising it, you can see a white shadow whose outline is completely invisible speeding on the road of the island country. Even the birds in the sky cannot keep up with its speed, and it easily surpasses the Shinkansen.

Ouyang Xuan is just an ordinary exorcist and doesn't know anything about mechanical modification. The reason why this car can run so fast is naturally not based on science, but pure theology. It is because Ouyang Xuan injected the power of the rabbit talisman into the car that gave it a speed comparable to that of an airplane.

However, Ouyang Jun had used this method to fly across the island country several times, and his body had become accustomed to the feeling of weightlessness at high speed. However, Hina had not. Hina's fair and tender little face quickly turned pale, then red, and finally even a little blue.

"Are you okay, Amano?"

“No… Oooooooh!!”

On the seaside of the highway, the speeding car has stopped. Yang Cai is lying on the guardrail and vomiting non-stop. The lunch that has been completely digested at noon is also vomited out. Due to the high water content, even a small rainbow can be vaguely seen.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were so weak."

"President, I don't think this is a problem with my body..." Hina struggled to raise her head, and then couldn't help vomiting again.

"That train was incredibly fast. If I'm not mistaken, we just overtook the Shinkansen."

"My car overtook the Shinkansen. Isn't that normal?"

"This is not normal at all!" Hina screamed in frustration. How could her president have such strange common sense?

"But Xiaojing said it was normal and it was very pleasant to ride in my car." Ouyang Jun was a little doubtful about his driving skills after receiving inconsistent comments.

"That person named Xiaojing is also not right!"

After vomiting until there was nothing left in her stomach, Hina sat on the ground somewhat exhausted. But when she thought of her experience in the car, she suddenly felt her stomach churning again, but she no longer had the strength to stand up and vomit.

The wind was not very cold at around five in the afternoon. It was very comfortable blowing on the body with some afternoon warmth, which made Yang Cai feel a lot better. However, the clouds in the sky were always dark, as if it would rain at any time.

In just a blink of an eye, Yang Cai saw Ouyang Xuan disappear in front of her. When he reappeared, he was holding a bottle of milk in a sealed bottle in his hand. Judging from the label on it, it should be provided by a bathhouse to guests after taking a bath.

"If you have an upset stomach, drink this and it will make you feel much better."

"I accept the president's belated concern with a clear conscience."

Hina was so weak that she didn't even have the strength to remove the cork, so she asked Ouyang Shun to do it for her.

Ouyang Jun, who had never led others on a mission, subconsciously ignored the fact that as an ordinary person, Hina had an extremely low tolerance for such ultra-high-speed driving. Ouyang Jun made such an error thanks to his high school teacher, a woman named Hiratsuka Shizuka.

After Jing got into Ouyang Xuan's car, no matter how fast Ouyang Xuan drove, Jing just screamed happily and didn't show any discomfort at all. Ouyang Xuan took Jing out for a ride from time to time during high school, which made Ouyang Xuan misunderstand that this speed was acceptable to most people.

The premonition came true. Hina thought it might rain, and it really rained that day. Hina had just finished drinking hot milk and wanted to rest on the solid ground for even a little while, but she had to run to the car quickly to avoid getting soaked after becoming carsick.

The rain did not come gradually. When the first drop of water fell, it was followed by a downpour like a reservoir releasing water. In just one minute, the visibility on the road, which was originally several kilometers, became a horrifying game-like perspective where only a few hundred meters could be seen.

"It's raining again. It's rained several times today. My clothes can't get dry." Yang Cai looked at the heavy rain outside the window with annoyance. "If I hadn't prepared an umbrella in advance yesterday, I would have gone home in the rain."

"This rain should continue for several months."

"No." Yang Cai felt that Ouyang Falcon was exaggerating. "President, this isn't the rainy season, how could it rain for so long? It's not some rain-seeking monster."

"You know?" Ouyang Xuan asked curiously. Yang Cai didn't look like such a smart person.

"I know? What do I know?"

"This rain is caused by an evil spirit or a demon, that's why I said it would last for a few months." Ouyang Xuan then added, "In a few months, I'll be able to locate him. If the rain doesn't stop, I'll go get rid of him. It's too annoying to have it raining every day."

"Monsters... are they such common things?" Hina's mouth twitched a little. Why did it feel like so many monsters and evil spirits appeared around her after she came into contact with the other world yesterday?

"In modern society, most monsters have been driven to remote places, so you feel they are rare."
