Tokyo Ghost Diary

Yu Shimizu was not the only one who noticed this conversation. Several other girls heard that a student had been bitten by a poisonous snake. Some of them looked frightened, while others had eyes full of interest.

There was a siren blaring not far away. I didn't know if it was a police car or an ambulance. Suzuki Zemei looked at several friends with bright eyes: "Should we go over and have a look? I have never seen it outside the zoo." It’s a snake!”

"I don't want it!" Shimizu Yu suddenly reacted. She didn't even have the slightest fondness for that long, soft-bodied creature! Just imagining the snake squirming on the ground gave her goosebumps on her arms!

"That's right, what if we were bitten in the past, it was a poisonous snake!" Oguri Aoi chose to support Yu Shimizu and rejected Suzuki Sawami's proposal.

But Suzuki Zemei didn't give up, she continued to persuade: "It doesn't matter, listen, the police are already here, the poisonous snake must have been subdued, just go and have a look..."

Before she finished speaking, there was a sudden shaking feeling on the ground. At first, Suzuki Zemei thought it was her imagination, but the next moment she realized... was this an earthquake? !

Her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and the panic that had just arisen in her heart was dissipated by the warmth from her wrist. She subconsciously turned around and saw Yu Shimizu, who was usually like a little fool, holding her with one hand and holding her with the other. He grabbed Saki Ito and said calmly on his face: "There's an earthquake. Let's go to a spacious place quickly."

As soon as she spoke, she grabbed the hands of her two friends and ran quickly. At the same time, she didn't forget to turn around and urge her other two friends who were still in panic.

Obviously, when facing danger, Yu Shimizu, who has experienced big scenes with Gen Hoshino, can at least react far beyond ordinary people in terms of reaction speed.

......

The black and red halo of light flowed in the hand, and the moment Onikiri appeared, he was turned over and held by the hand, and then stabbed down hard. With a "pop" sound, a poisonous snake with gorgeous patterns on its body was caught by Hoshino. The source was nailed to the ground.

Not far from him was Hoshino Rin, who was holding Tamamo Mae's little hand and trembling.

"Brother...Brother, snake...snake, is it dead?" Hoshino Rin asked with a pale face and a trembling voice. He was walking well on the road, but a poisonous snake suddenly jumped out of the green belt. Who could not be scared by this? A jump?

Hoshino Gen didn't answer her, but turned his gaze to the southern sky. The sky was cloudless a few minutes ago, but now, there was a rich black color spreading from there.

Along with the black cloud, there was also a trace of extremely dangerous aura... It was much more dangerous than the foggy village that gave him the feeling last time in Hokkaido.

And if I remember correctly, the direction I looked at on the map before was the location of Takemi Shrine.

The corner of Hoshino Gen's mouth twitched slightly, and he suddenly regretted accepting the commission from that old guy Shinichiro Sasaki.

But... forget it, since I accepted it, there is no reason to regret it. In any case, the old man's beads saved his life last time. Even if he is really going to fall into trouble this time, he still owes him. I hate owing other people things.

Just because he is alive does not mean that he is afraid of death, and quite the opposite...

Whether it is the psychological profiling and analysis of the special task force, or the old monster like Sasaki Shinichiro, or the same kind as Asaba Shinichi, they all know that people like Hoshino Gen will not be afraid of death. , on the contrary, he has a more serious self-destructive tendency.

"elder brother……?"

Seeing Hoshino Gen looking at the sky in a daze, Hoshino Rin couldn't help but call him again. Hoshino Gen came back to his senses, glanced at her, paused, and turned his attention to Tamamo Mae, who was also staring at the southern sky at the moment: "Xiaojiu."

Tamamo Mae blinked and looked at him.

"Take Rin home." Gen Hoshino said calmly, as usual.

Tamamo-mae pouted, but nodded, but still took Hoshino Rin's hand: "Rin-chan, let's go home."

Hoshino Rin was a little confused, but looking at his brother's expression, he still chose to listen to his words.

Being held by Tamamo Mae and walking forward, Hoshino Rin looked back at Hoshino Gen every step of the way.

At this time, Tamamo Mae also suddenly turned around and shouted to Hoshino Gen: "A Gen, don't go there alone. I'll come find you after I send Rin-chan home!"

Gen Hoshino still didn't respond. When his sister and Tamamo Mae disappeared from sight, he slowly pulled out the Onikiri that had been pierced into the ground through the snake's body.

The demon sword disintegrated into a stream of light and returned to his arm. He put his hands into his pockets and walked towards the south as if strolling.

The commission he received was to protect Chiyonomiya. If nothing happened, forget it. But looking at the current situation, something obviously happened at the Kenmi Shrine, so he didn't care about the advice not to approach it for three days...

......

In a park near Kinkakuji Temple, students from Segawa Private Academy participating in a school trip gathered here.

In front of the phalanx of Class A, the class teacher, Risa Fujiwara, was making a phone call with a face full of anxiety, but the sound coming from the phone was only a "beep" sound, and she couldn't get through.

She glanced at the students sitting neatly on the grass in front of her, then thought of something, put down her phone, and asked her students: "Who in our class has Hoshino's contact information?"

Yes, she just tried to call the parents of the only student in the class who came to Kyoto this time but did not show up here. She knew about Gen Hoshino acting alone. This was directly informed by the school leaders. .

But now is a special period, and there was an earthquake just now. Under such circumstances, she is really anxious if she does not confirm the safety of her students.

The students below became noisy, whispering to each other. Of course it is normal for classmates to have contact information, but a student like Gen Hoshino is really special in the class.

Not to mention giving contact information to classmates, there are only a few people who have spoken to him!

Risa Fujiwara obviously knew what Gen Hoshino was doing in the class, so she didn't have high hopes at first, but surprisingly, someone actually raised their hand.

Among the students, Yu Shimizu, who was sitting on the grass with his legs together like other students, raised his little hands and looked at the teacher with his big eyes.

Fujiwara Risa was surprised for a moment, and then quickly said: "Then Shimizu-san, can you help the teacher call Hoshino-san?"

Yu Shimizu agreed without hesitation, took out his cell phone and called Gen Hoshino, and then handed the phone to Mr. Fujiwara.

She could see that the teacher was really worried about that guy. After all, although she knew that the guy was so powerful and it was just a small earthquake, he would definitely be fine, but the teacher didn't know.

Risa Fujiwara took the phone and thanked her, then went to the side to talk on the phone. At this time, a school leader came over, cleared his throat and said to the students:

"The above has issued a disaster warning notice, saying that there may be a major earthquake in the evening. Now all parties are organizing the evacuation of residents in the city. The school has also contacted the buses. The students are getting ready. We will set off back to Tokyo immediately."

While he was speaking, there happened to be a few black helicopters flying "whirring" in the dark cloud-filled sky above his head, which heightened the atmosphere of impending rain.

Before he finished speaking, there was another sudden shaking on the ground. This time it was much more violent than the previous one. The school leader who was standing in front of the square and talking almost fell down.
