With the elimination of the culprit Mimiko Mizunuma, the death call incident was completely resolved.
But compared to the calm Shizuku, Nueno Meisuke's mood was obviously a little complicated. After all, he had always thought that the evil spirit was Mizunuma Mimiko's mother, but he didn't expect it to be the other way around.
This also made Nueno Meisuke say little along the way.
Shizuku is not incomprehensible about this. As a teacher, Nueno Meisuke still subconsciously believes that children are innocent, simple, kind and beautiful. But in fact, there are children like Mizunuma Mimiko who are born as demons. Although scientific research often links a child's personality with the acquired educational environment.
But the fact is that even children raised in the same environment can have very different ideas and personalities. It is not surprising that some children are born evil.
Of course, whether it is acceptable or not is another matter.
"Then I'll take my leave."
After sending Nueno Meisuke to the station, Shizuku was about to say goodbye, and Nueno Meisuke sighed as he got off the car.
"Ms. Kasugano, um...what are you going to do..."
"That's my problem, but as a demon who has killed many people, I won't give her any preferential treatment just because of her age."
"But, she is just a child after all..."
"You should say this to the victims."
Shizuku shrugged.
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and this is not a good excuse, let alone for an evil spirit who enjoys harming others."
“…”
Nueno Meisuke was also speechless for a moment.
"Well, I still have work to do, so I'll take my leave now... By the way, the rest of the money I gave you before should be considered as your reward. After all, I've troubled you to run around with me."
"Why?!"
Hearing this, Nueno Meisuke was stunned.
"Is this okay? That's a lot of money!"
"It's just pocket money for me. You can use it however you want. If you don't want to take it, just donate it to charity. Just don't give it back to me... Well, goodbye."
After saying this, Shizuku didn't even give Nueno Meisuke a chance to refuse. She stepped on the accelerator and the sports car accelerated to the bottom. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from Nueno Meisuke's sight. Looking at the sports car going away, Nueno Meisuke was also stunned. He did run around to investigate, but he only spent a little. Originally, Nueno Meisuke was going to return the remaining money to Shizuku, but the latter didn't give him a chance to speak at all and just left...
Although this is a reward for myself, but...
Looking at the 10,000 yuan bill in his hand, Nueno Meisuke also had a headache. As a psychic, he often received various commissions and requests for help, but most of the time Nueno Meisuke helped for free and hardly charged any money. This was also the reason why he was so poor that he almost had to pawn his pants.
But what should I do with this hundred thousand dollars?
How Nueno Meisuke would spend the 100,000 yen was no longer Shizuku's concern. She drove back to the office and lived a leisurely life again.
Of course, KOF competitions continued during this period.
The death call incident did not cause much impact because Shizuku handled it quickly. It only formed rumors among a small number of people. Shizuku did not care much about it. After all, Mizunuma Mimiko was in her hands, and as long as the death call did not resurrect, there would be no problem at all.
As for the KOF tournament, it has entered the finals, and the two teams in the finals are the Kusanagi team of the Kusanagi-ryu and the Ryugo team of the Kyoto-ryu. It is a showdown between the two major fighting schools in Japan, and Shizuku is relieved to see this. Both sides are reliable, and no matter which side wins, they should not make any particularly weird demands.
"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!!!"
While Shizuku was watching the live broadcast of the KOF match, suddenly, someone knocked on the door, startling everyone. Hinasaki Shinku hurriedly stood up, walked to the door and opened it, but at the moment Hinasaki Shinku opened the door, a black-haired woman suddenly rushed in.
"Please, save me! Save me!!!"
The black-haired woman seemed quite excited, and it took Hinasaki Shinkuen some time to calm her down. Then Hinasaki Shinkuen took her to sit on the sofa.
"Thank you, thank you..."
Looking at the girl in front of her, the black-haired woman seemed to finally relax a little, and it was only at this time that Shizuku, who was sitting behind the desk, stared at her and asked.
"Excuse me, what brings you to our difficult case investigation office?"
"ah……"
Hearing Shizuku's question, the black-haired woman became excited again.
“Please, save me, you are the…exploitation experts, right? Please, I can’t take it anymore…!!”
"Please calm down and tell us what happened."
Hinasaki Shinku and the others were not particularly surprised by the woman's reaction. In fact, many people who came for help were in a state of near hysteria. At first, they were a little at a loss, but after so long, they were almost used to how to treat such guests.
"Please say it in ..."
At this time, Jing Shuijiu also came over and handed the woman a cup of tea.
"It will calm you down a bit..."
This is certainly not ordinary tea, but the tea of the black tea fairy Lizlit. As a black tea fairy, Lizlit did not say much about her fighting ability, but at least she is top-notch when it comes to black tea, and the tea leaves she took out naturally have magical powers. This kind of tea can calm people's mood and stabilize their emotions - strictly speaking, it is similar to oral sedatives.
The woman was upset and didn't plan to drink tea, but after taking the teacup, an alluring aroma of black tea hit her nose, and she couldn't help but take a sip. The warm tea mixed with delicious taste flowed into her body, and her originally uneasy mood seemed to become calm.
"Thank you, little sister."
After thanking the Qilong, who was dozens of times older than her, the woman looked at Shizuku and spoke.
"I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now. I really can't bear that kind of horror anymore..."
"Could you please start from the beginning?"
"Of course... I'm so sorry, my name is Rika Nishina..."
According to the woman's self-introduction, her name is Rika Nishina, she is a college student and also a volunteer in the community. One day not long ago, she was suddenly given a job by the community staff, hoping that she would go to a certain family to check on the living conditions of the elderly there.
"...I went to that family's house, and it felt very strange to me, as if no one had lived there for a long time. I walked up and knocked on the door, but no one answered, and the door was not locked. The house was in a mess, with things scattered all over the floor...I found the old man in the room inside..."
According to Rika Nishina, the old woman seemed unconscious and bedridden. As a volunteer, she had to take care of her, so she wiped her body and cleaned the house. However, while cleaning the house, Rika Nishina heard the sound of a cat. She followed the sound and found a space on the second floor that was sealed with tape. Rika Nishina opened the cabinet and found a black cat inside.
However, when she let the black cat out, Rika Nishina was surprised to find that there was a little boy in the cupboard! !
This immediately frightened Nishina Rika. She hurried to the first floor and asked the old woman what was going on, but the old woman was unconscious and had no intention of answering. She went to the second floor stairs again and met the child. This time, Nishina Rika learned that the child's name was Toshio. Then she went to her mother-in-law again, but this time, Nishina Rika saw an unbelievable scene.
She saw a black figure crawling on her mother-in-law, then reaching out to strangle her. Then, the black figure looked at Nishina Rika viciously - and then she lost consciousness.
After that, the community worker who received Nishina Rika's previous report about the child also rushed over and found the body of the grandmother and Nishina Rika curled up in the corner, and sent her to the hospital. Fortunately, Nishina Rika was not injured, but...
"I've been having nightmares. I'm so scared. I can feel that they seem to be watching me, always watching me, no matter where I go..."
"I see."
After listening to Rika Nishina's story, Shizuku nodded.
"Have the police come to question you?"
"Yes, they asked me about the child... They said that the family named Tokunaga had no child at all... But I did see it, I saw a child there...!!"
"I see."
Shizuku nodded.
"You said the boy's name is Junxiong?"
"Yes, I asked him his name, and that's what he told me at the time."
"Very good, thank you for the information... You can rest here for a while. No matter what evil spirit it is, it won't be able to attack you here."
Having said this, Shizuku glanced to the side.
"Fengshi, take her to the guest room."
"Okay, Miss Shizuku."
Hearing Shizuku's order, Kurosawa Aise, who had been standing next to her, also came over and took the frightened Nishina Rika out of the office. Then Shizuku looked at Hinasaki Shinku.
"By the way, Crimson, go get me a TV, a VCR, and a cell phone."
"Hey? Are these things going to be used for exorcism this time?"
Hinasaki Shinku was obviously a little surprised at Shizuku's request, but Shizuku just smiled slightly.
"I just want to try and see what I can grow from raising Gu."
Then she answered.
