Mask: Begins with training with Hibiki

"Ah! Uncle! What happened today? Why did you rush us here at 7 o'clock? I can hardly open my eyes while sitting in the clinic these two days."

Jiang Chen, who had just entered Tachibana and was exhausted both physically and mentally from being on duty with Professor Hatoyama, asked helplessly.

Xianggui did not complain. He just calmly picked up the hot tea that was brewed for him and took a sip, smiling without saying a word.

Tachibana Sejiro looked at the complaining Jiang Chen and smiled, then explained:

"I'm sorry to ask you to come so early, but this time there is an important announcement and you need to come quickly. Jiang Chen, you should still remember that you didn't have any jurisdiction assigned to you before."

Jiang Chen sat up straight instantly after hearing that. It seemed that he was going to be assigned a big job. He nodded quickly and said, "Remember, remember, uncle, I'm not sleepy anymore after you said that. Are you going to assign me a big job? Please don't pity me and give me more tasks."

Tachibana Sejiro smiled and said:

"You just said you were tired. In fact, Yoshino had already been considering this before your assessment. Because the number of demonized monsters has been abnormal recently, and their locations are irregular, in order to deal with the demonized monsters in various places, a special guerrilla squad is now being established to support various places."

Jiang Chen was stunned when he heard this. The reason why he was not given jurisdiction before was because he wanted to join the special guerrilla squad. He quickly responded.

"Uncle, you mean that you want me to join the special guerrilla team? I can do that. It doesn't matter if it's a bit hard and tiring. The most important thing is that I want to fight the demonized monsters. I'm very strong in this kind of thing."

Tachibana Sejiro looked at Jiang Chen and laughed dumbly, then shook his head:

"You are right. We do want you to join the special guerrilla squad. No matter what the circumstances, you can participate in the battle as a supporting staff. Do your best."

"Okay, okay, it's okay. Uncle, just watch me. I will definitely be a good member of the Special Guerrilla Squad."

"Hahaha, I just like your carefree look."

Xianggui interrupted the two and said: "Uncle, now that the announcement has been made, let us see the duty roster."

"This is indeed a bit too full."

Xianggui shouted helplessly as he looked at the duty roster in front of him.

Jiang Chen looked at the duty roster with a calm expression on the surface, but in his heart he couldn't help but laugh like a pig. Isn't this what he has always dreamed of? Otherwise, he would have no chance to earn battle points.

Tachibana Sejiro suddenly changed the subject: "Xiao Jing has been working so hard. She finally got admitted to Chengnan, but she has almost no time to go to school."

Xianggui said thoughtfully: "I think Xiaojing is mentally prepared, but we should also help her."

"Help her? How?"

"For example, let Jiang Chen help tutor Xiaojing with her homework. Jiang Chen will definitely be able to do it. Also, the boy and Xiaojing seem to be in the same class, so we can ask the boy for help as well."

"Then this matter must be no problem for you. You can also discuss the matter of the special guerrilla class with Jiang Chen."

"That's of course no problem, right, Jiang Chen?"

Jiang Chen, who was still thinking about his bright future, raised his head when he heard this: "Ah?"

"I think it should be no problem for you to help tutor Xiaojing with her schoolwork."

Jiang Chen reacted and nodded thoughtfully.

"I can only help with certain subjects. What China and Japan teach are different. I can help with science and English. For the others, it's better to ask Asuka for help."

Xiang Gui and the other person nodded in agreement.

Tachibana Sejiro suddenly changed the subject and asked, "By the way, there is one more thing. Jiang Chendao doesn't even have a ghost name yet. What are you going to do?"

"This problem is also a headache for me. I haven't retired yet, and Jiang Chen can't inherit the name of Xianggui."

Xianggui said with a headache.

Jiang Chen smiled carefreely: "It's okay uncle, I don't mind this little time. Without a ghost name, do I still have a name? There's no rush."

Tachibana Sejiro said with a headache: "That's true, but it's still not good to have no ghost name. Jiang Chen uses his real name every time he goes on a mission. It will be a disaster if it is leaked by ordinary people."

Xianggui chimed in: "Hey, uncle, since we are here, we should make the best of it. It's not that easy to be exposed. Besides, we just need to keep our facial transformation intact."

"Okay okay, that's it."

Jiang Chen and Xiang Gui smiled at each other. After all, this matter really could not be rushed.

Although Jiang Chen did not want to inherit Xiang Gui's name, he was Xiang Gui's apprentice, and if nothing unexpected happened, the name of Xiang Gui would definitely fall on him.

The three of them were laughing when a secret door suddenly opened and Takizawa Midori walked in holding two boxes and said with a smile:

"Then what are you talking about? You look so happy. Share it with me."

Xianggui immediately turned around, and when he saw it was Takizawa Midori, he smiled and said, "Jiang Chen and I have both become members of the Special Guerrilla Squad."

"Huh? What is this?"

"No matter what the situation is, I can participate in activities as an aid worker."

"Yes, yes, Sister Xiaolu, this is a recognition of my genius."

Takizawa Midori smiled, put the two wooden boxes in her hands on the table and said: "But don't forget that you have me as your helper."

As he spoke, he began to untie the bow on the box.

Xiang Gui and Jiang Chen's eyes lit up and they hurried forward to check.

Then Xianggui took out a Taiko directly from the box, and then shouted happily: "This is the reinforced Taiko I mentioned yesterday, it is really heavy, I have been waiting for a long time."

"I named him Exploding Flame Drum."

Jiang Chen hurriedly opened the wooden box on the second layer and took out a taiko drum and asked: "Is there anything different about this taiko drum?"

Takizawa Midori hummed and explained: "Of course it's different. This taiko is a new type of drum that has undergone a series of modifications such as tuning. It can maximize the effect of the purifying sound of the amplified striker."

"In theory, when using this type of taiko, there will be no effect even if you hit it a few times less, but it has not been tested in actual combat, so I don't know the specific effect."

Jiang Chen immediately said righteously: "Leave this matter to me and Master Xianggui, we will know after we test it."

"Then I'll leave it to you. Remember to give me feedback on the results every time you use it so I can record it."

"Okay, okay, leave it to us."

This is a new type of drum, a good piece of equipment. We should borrow the name of Xianggui to taste the new type of drum.

The mall hasn't refreshed skill items for a long time recently, and Jiang Chen has no use for other things. He should just join the special guerrilla class to make some money.
