Miss Shijo Aoi brought them to the warehouse. They would soon find out whether it was a disaster level F monster. Jiangchuan felt that it was almost certain - he pushed open the warehouse door and walked in with Sakurai Tong.
The items in the warehouse were arranged in order. It could be seen that the previous owner was a person who liked tidiness and cleanliness and who categorized items. Jiangchuan took a look inside the warehouse, trying to find the hiding place of the Tsukumogami.
"leave!!"
A hoarse, slightly aged voice suddenly rang out. Jiang Chuan saw Ying Jing Tong holding a knife, on guard. He then looked in the direction of the voice. On a high shelf not far in front of him was a large jar. On the wall of the jar was a human face with stern features. It roared at them, "Get out!!"
Jiangchuan took a look and saw that it was a Tsukumogami attached to an object. This kind of thing was the easiest to deal with, and the jar had no feet, so it couldn't run away.
Jiangchuan couldn't imagine how the high school students who came to remove the monster were beaten away in disgrace, because it was beyond his imagination. If the monster standing outside waiting for them, Shijo Aoi, was a little braver, he could pick up the jar and smash it to pieces, and the Tsukumogami would naturally be exorcised.
Without the dwarf's help, Jiangchuan walked forward and prepared to take down the jar of Fusangshen. However, as soon as he took a step forward, the warehouse suddenly shook violently, raising a cloud of dust, and the neatly arranged porcelain and shelves creaked, as if they would fall down at any time.
The altar of Fusangshen kept yelling, "Get out! Get out!!"
Jiangchuan probably understood how the high school student got so dirty, but he was not panicking. He took two steps at a time. Making the warehouse shake should be the last resort of the Tsukumogami, which was inconsistent with the name of disaster level E. He reached out and touched the jar and lifted it up. The shaking of the warehouse stopped and calm was restored.
only……
The jar in his hand was still screaming. Jiang Chuan glanced at Ying Jing Tong and said, "Let's go out."
The jar might be an important relic of Miss Shijo Aoi's deceased grandfather, and he planned to inquire about the owner's wishes before dealing with it.
When Shijo Aoi saw the two people coming out, the jar with the Tsukumogami attached was also carried out. Although she was scared, more importantly, the memories deep in her heart were turned up.
Ordinary people would subconsciously fear strange things, but Shijo Aoi didn't show that kind of emotion. Jiang Chuan glanced at her sideways, holding the jar of the Tsukumogami and asked, "Miss Shijo, what do you want to do with this jar?"
"This is the jar my grandmother used to make miso. Ever since she passed away, my grandfather has often talked over it. I never thought it would become a tsukumogami."
Jiangchuan didn't know what Shijo Aoi had misunderstood. His longing turned into obsession, and then into weirdness, but this didn't mean it was bad, otherwise he wouldn't have taken out the jar and asked what to do with it.
From Shijo Aoi's words, he could tell that his deceased grandparents must have been very loving to each other, and that the warehouse must have been a place that held deep memories of his grandfather.
so……
After Shijo Aoi's grandfather passed away, a trace of obsession attached itself to the utensils that his wife often used when she was alive, wanting to protect this place and prohibit anyone from entering. This was also the reason for the previous scene where he and Sakurai Tou stepped into the warehouse and warned them to leave.
I believe that Shijo Aoi should also be able to hear that the old voice of Tsukumogami is, if I am not mistaken, the voice of her deceased grandfather.
Jiangchuan said to Shijo Aoi, "Perhaps it was because of his obsession to protect the things he loved that he became a tsukumogami. Miss Shijo's grandfather must have loved your grandmother very much."
Shijo Aoi was stunned for a moment, then she reacted, a smile spread across her face and she said, "Thank you."
…
In the end, Jiangchuan still dealt with the jar of the Tsukumogami. It had become a strange thing. No matter how precious it was, ordinary people could not accept it.
Ying Jing Tong didn't say a word the whole time. It wasn't until they left the house that she glanced at Jiang Chuan Hai, snorted, and said, "Goody-goody."
Hearing Sakurai Tong mocking him, Jiangchuan didn't care. Fusangshen helped him confirm again that ordinary monsters would not appear with gray mist. He replied and changed the subject, "You have accepted more than just this one mission, right? Where is the location of the other mission? Let's take the tram to go there."
Sakurai Tong did not tell anyone that she had taken on a second mission. She had planned to exorcise one Tsukumogami, but since it was a waste of time, she could do the other one tomorrow.
but……
Now that the Fusangshen had been removed, not much time had passed. Sakurai Tong nodded and said, "Take it. The other one is in Setagaya District, not far away."
The dwarf's reference to "not very far" was based on a comparison with the places they had visited in the past to exorcise monsters. In reality, even if they took the tram and walked, it would take more than an hour for them to find the destination for the second extermination mission.
It took a while to exorcise the weirdness. The sun gradually set in the west. Although he was not hungry, his appetite was still playing tricks on him. On the way back, Jiang Chuan saw a ramen shop on the street. He looked at Ying Jingtong and said, "Let's go eat ramen and go back after we are full."
Sakurai Tong hesitated for a moment. It didn't matter to her that Jiangchuan Hai paid for the taxi fare and the tram fare, but she couldn't help but feel bad about having to spend her own money on ramen. In fact, the cup noodles in the apartment were not bad.
He has to eat instant noodles for two out of three meals a day. The stuff tastes so bland when he eats too much of it that his mouth is bland.
He immediately understood what the dwarf was thinking. He had just received a considerable bonus, so treating Sakurai Tong to ramen wouldn't cost much. After a moment's thought, Jiang Chuan said, "It's my treat. Let's go."
