Is this okay?

Seeing this, Gai Tsutsugami didn't say anything and walked straight ahead, while Inori Yuzuriha thought for a moment and realized that she had nothing to do, so she decided to go and rest.

……

the next day.

noon.

People were preparing lunch at this time, and everyone felt incredulous about the strange events that had occurred yesterday.

Although the authenticity of the "Complete Book of Strange Things" is still unclear, it's the talk of the town today.

After all, if it's true, then humanity's previous methods were completely wrong and must be changed.

If it's fake, then it must be punished.

Just as everyone was getting ready to eat their lunch, all the surrounding displays started flashing.

"what happened?"

"there is a problem?"

"Gaia! My cell phone!"

"Wait! Something's not right! This is the same as yesterday!"

Everyone frowned instantly, sensing a subtle sense of familiarity.

Immediately afterwards, images appeared on all the display devices.

It was a dark corridor, with no one around, a place similar to an underground parking garage.

Wearing a black trench coat, Shu Ouma stood in the middle with a blank expression. He looked up at the front, but there was nothing in his eyes.

The moment Shu Ouma appeared, the students and teachers at Tennouu School couldn't help but widen their eyes.

"Shu Ouma!?"

"How could it be him!?"

"Wait, what is he going to do!?"

In an instant, everyone was incredulous. Everyone still remembered how Ouma Shu almost killed Kyojo Matsuri yesterday.

Within a day, the whole school knew about it.

But now that I've seen Shu Ouma appear, it's even stranger why this is happening.

What purpose?

At this moment, Shu Ouma in the scene begins to speak.

"As you all know, you received the 'Complete Collection of Strange Things' yesterday, and you're probably wondering whether it's real or fake. Now I'll prove it with my actions."

Shu Ouma's voice was calm, with a hint of indifference.

The camera then zoomed out, revealing the entire basement.

At that moment, the people from the funeral home couldn't help but shrink their pupils. If they weren't mistaken, this basement was their funeral home's warehouse!

"What's going on!? Why didn't we notice someone intruding?!" Gai Tsutsugami immediately questioned the people around him upon seeing this situation.

At the same time, the sound of a thrush came through his earphones, filled with panic.

"Ya! Qi is missing!!"

"What--!!"

Upon hearing this, Gai Tsutsugami's pupils contracted sharply; this was a completely unexpected situation.

Yuzuriha Inori was just here a moment ago...

It's a motor!

The other party was able to appear at the funeral home without anyone noticing, so there's no reason why they couldn't take Qi away!

Shu Ouma! What exactly do you want to do?!

Gai Tsutsugami was shocked and questioned loudly in his heart. He had recognized Shu Ouma from the first glance and felt more confused than ever about Shu Ouma's actions.

At this moment, another person appeared in the picture.

It's Yuzuriha Inori.

She looked around with a strange expression, and when she turned her head to the front, she was surprised to see Ouma Shu.

There was even an unprecedented sense of familiarity in his eyes.

This familiarity wasn't hers, but rather the familiarity of the virus within her body.

Mana Ouma's familiarity with Shu Ouma.

集！

The name Shu Ouma appeared in Inori Yuzuriha's mind, and her face was filled with doubt.

How do I know?

She asked herself this question.

"Yuzuriha Inori, the anomaly of Funeral Parlor, are you ready for me to kill the anomaly within you?"

Shu Ouma looked at Inori Yuzuriha with a complicated expression.

“I will not let you kill the monster within me; Gai needs my monster.”

Yuzuriha Inori answered with a serious expression, full of certainty. Although it sounded weak, it was full of determination.

"Then it's not up to you."

Shu Ouma watched expressionlessly, then stepped forward and walked towards Inori Yuzuriha.

At this moment, upon seeing this situation, Gai Tsutsugami immediately contacted Tsugumi via communications.

"Tsugumi, what's going on? Why hasn't anyone gone over for so long?"

“I don’t know… Everyone who was near the warehouse has lost contact, Gai! Something terrible is blocking the warehouse entrance. I’m afraid those who went there are already…” Tsurugi explained in a trembling voice.

Although I don't know what happened, the situation is terrifying.

No matter how many people go there, they will lose contact instantly. Even if you send a robot there, it will lose signal instantly.

There is a monster blocking the entrance, and anyone who enters will disappear.

Gai Tsutsugami's heart sank upon hearing this; Ouma Shu was not the only one.

This is an organized operation.

no solution anymore……

"Tsugumi, have everyone evacuate. Let's go!" Gai Tsutsugami gave the order and immediately turned to leave.

"What should we do, Qi?!" Tsugumi's voice sounded surprised.

“It’s alright, the target is an anomaly. He won’t do anything to Inori, but I’m afraid Inori won’t be able to deal with the anomaly after this,” Gai Tsutsugami said calmly.

"But……"

"No buts! Staying here now will only result in total annihilation!!"

"..."

The thrush had no choice but to grit its teeth and retreat.

Gai Tsutsugami is right. If things continue like this, we will have no way to face the unknown enemy.

Meanwhile, at the warehouse entrance.

Leng Mo, Jin Mu, Tatsumi, and Kazuma stood guard at the gate, their faces filled with smiles.

Before them lay countless funeral home members, foaming at the mouth. These guys had been crushed to pieces the moment they entered by Leng Mo and the others, each with a blunt object.

Although there is no danger to life, the back of the head will definitely hurt for several days after waking up.

"All we need to do is guard this place and prevent anyone from entering the warehouse."

Leng Mo stood at the gate, holding a wooden stick, exuding the aura of a supreme gatekeeper, determined not to let anyone in.

……

In the warehouse, Shu Ouma walked expressionlessly toward Inori Yuzuriha.

He spoke as he walked.

"Don't be stubborn, unleash the strangeness within you."

"No!" Yuzuriha Inori looked stubbornly at Ouma Shu, glancing around as if she was about to do something.

"It's no use! The only way you can leave now is to release the monster; otherwise, you'll never leave here for the rest of your life."

Shu Ouma said confidently, "Everything is arranged. No one will be coming here."

"No!" Yuzuriha Inori looked firmly at Ouma Shu and refused again.

"In that case..."

Upon hearing this, Shu Ouma's eyes flashed with a sharp light. The only option then was to use force to make Inori Yuzuriha release her supernatural abilities.

In the blink of an eye, Ouma Shu charged forward without hesitation; he was about to make his move!

Yuzuriha Inori saw that his face was full of vigilance, but she also noticed something strange.

Then she hung up the attacking Ouma Shu and beat him up.

Of course, this scene was also broadcast live.

"..."

"..."

"Miss Yuzuriha Inori is awesome!!"

"I thought he was something special because he seemed so imposing, but he turned out to be a total idiot!"

"Do you think it's possible that he never imagined Yuzuriha Inori was such a good fighter?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Ms. Yuzuriha Inori was an online idol before, and she looks so delicate, who would have thought she could fight so well?"

"..."

That's true...

Everyone watched as Yuzuriha Inori shattered the wall after Ouma Shu dodged with a single punch, and they couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

……

Forum, chat area.

Stranger: Oh, this... Ji Ba Wang? Is he still alive?

Shu Ouma: Why is Inori Yuzuriha so good at fighting?!

Senior Xiaoyuan: Jibawang, are you even capable?

Shu Ouma: Is Inori Yuzuriha really that good at fighting?!

Kaneki Ken: Isn't that obvious? Didn't you see the future? In the future, she could lift a young man like you with one hand. Even if she can't fight, she could still take down a powerful opponent with one punch.

Shu Ouma: I—forgot—!

Kaneki Ken: ...

So that's why you got beaten up like a pig's head?

Homura Akemi: How impulsive were you to go up and fight Inori Yuzuriha without any preparation? I thought you were all ready.

Shu Ouma: Ah... is there anything that can defeat Inori Yuzuriha?

Kazuma Sato: Transforming into a Magical Girl, Hilarious.JPG

Shu Ouma: Next! If I were to transform into a magical girl here, my life as a human would be over!

Ken Kaneki: You transformed in front of the school festival before.

Shu Ouma: That was a necessary sacrifice! Things are different now!

Stranger: Oh, I didn't know you could say that. I understand. I'll use it that way next time.

Shu Ouma: ...
