Truth is everywhere within range

The rain in Kyoto is still pouring down.

Pontocho is bustling and lively at night.

Sasaki Haruka was still a little immersed in the atmosphere just now.

"Such things happen to spiritual masters often."

Qiao Qiao looked at her and said.

"People who are haunted by evil spirits for no reason and are suffering, people who just want to live a good life but are destroyed by weird things, it's not that they don't exist without seeing them."

Indeed, Qiao Qiao is in the Soul Exorcist Association, and he can tell it by seeing the exchanges in the group every day.

There are far more weirdos in this world than there are soul slayers.

What you can solve by yourself is only a very small part of it.

"But, can I really get rid of spirits like this?"

Sasaki Haruka was still a little hesitant.

Although she has the will to become an exorcist.

But I think I don't have that kind of talent.

"While you are helping your mother raise your younger brothers and sisters, you are also doing very well, right?"

Qiao Qiao suddenly said something without any explanation.

"Before entering Shimogamo Shrine, you would go to the supermarket to work every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, work in an izakaya on Tuesday, April and Saturday, and work at a gas station for half a day on Sunday. Even though you were so busy and had to take care of your younger brother and sister, your studies were not at all I didn’t fail, and I even got a scholarship from the school.”

"According to the survey of classmates, you also chat and play with friends during class breaks. You are not withdrawn. You even serve as the life committee member of the class and are trusted by everyone and the teacher."

"So, I presume."

"P-please wait a moment."

Qiao Qiao's knowledge of his affairs before could be attributed to the information provided by Sister Maki. Now, it seems that these things have already involved some categories that normal people should not understand, right?

"Qiao Sang, do you know a little too much detail?"

"Understand the background of each companion, know their appeals, weaknesses, and vulnerabilities to prevent making wrong judgments at critical moments. This is written earlier in the KGB manual."

Qiao Qiao said seriously.

"Is KGB some kind of idol group?"

Sasaki Haruka didn't understand again.

"Idol group?"

Several faces flashed through Qiao Qiao's mind.

Compared with current idols, the looks of those people are indeed pretty good.

"If you describe it this way, KGB is indeed an idol group."

"Teacher, I think your conversation seems to have deviated from the scope of normal people."

Ariko Asano complained from the side.

"Feel sorry."

While Qiao Qiao apologized, he wrote down the words "can be described as an idol group" in his notebook.

Then he raised his head.

"So, I think Sasaki-san has an amazing ability to allocate time and learn. This is why he got excellent results in the spirit-expelling written test less than a year after he was introduced to spirit-expelling, even surpassing Maki-san. In the end Please forget this sentence, I promised Maki-san not to tell others."

Qiao Qiao changed his words.

"Moreover, you are good at dealing with interpersonal relationships, and you attach great importance to your companions, relatives, and friends. You will also take other people's affairs seriously, which is quite rare."

"rare?"

Sasaki Haruka tilted his head.

"If a commander on the battlefield can only execute orders ruthlessly, then he is just a machine giving orders. A true commander is one who can make correct judgments taking into account the situation, strength, and comrades."

Qiao Qiao looked at Haruka Sasaki with serious eyes.

"Although Maki-san is nominally your senior, I think you are more suitable to be the leader of the team."

"Squad? What squad?"

Sasaki Haruka has been unable to keep up with Qiao Qiao's thinking speed since the previous topic, which was about the KGB.

"Do you still have to ask?"

Qiao Qiao asked rhetorically.

"Of course it's the Exorcism Team."

Seeing Sasaki Haruka's confusion, he looked expectantly.

Qiao Qiao nodded with satisfaction.

So, there are three.

When we returned to Shimogamo Shrine, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

I originally wanted to go to Neko Ramen to say hello, but after checking Twitter, it seemed that the boss was not open today, so I had to give up.

Qiao Qiao returned to his room and took out the damaged statue he had found at the izakaya "Shan Lotus Leaf".

He wrapped it in a piece of cloth, put it in the evidence bag, and was taking it out now.

The shape of the statue is a ball. It doesn't have any evil patterns, but it makes people feel the emotions of loneliness, terror and despair at a glance.

Of course, now the ball is falling apart.

There is a lot of Yin energy attached to it.

Although there is little difference between Yin Qi and Yin Qi, Qiao Qiao can still tell that the Yin Qi on this statue is similar to the evil god sculpture disguised as a fox statue of Mr. Daisuke Miyagi of Ren O Hall.

"Wuxianfang?"

Faceless Fang is stealing memories at the Kamogawa Market while spreading evil statues to cause trouble.

Although this answer is reasonable, Qiao Qiao does not think it is the truth of the matter.

Because it's such a coincidence.

In the weird world, coincidence is not a good thing.

but.

The Gion Festival and subsequent spirit-killing performances will definitely gather a large number of spirit-killing masters.

If someone wanted to cause trouble at this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to declaring war on the battlefield of a military exercise?

It's just too stupid.

Qiao Qiao channeled the statue.

But it was too severely eroded by Yin Qi, and no useful clues could be obtained.

I can only put it away and hand it over to the Soul Exorcist Association in Kyoto tomorrow when I have time.

Thinking of this, Qiao Qiao looked at his phone.

Above are the materials to be commissioned tomorrow.

If nothing else happens, he should take Kitagawa Ryoko to remove spirits.

But it’s a bit difficult to handle.

If the previous three witches had the ability to remove spirits, they were just afraid of removing spirits for various reasons.

Kitagawa Ryoko is very reluctant to remove spirits herself.

Although she awakened her spiritual power when she was sixteen, it has been two years.

But Kitagawa Ryoko's spiritual power growth has stagnated.

In other words, she is actually an ordinary person with a little bit of spiritual power.

That's the extent of being able to see resentful spirits.

It is precisely because of this that Kitagawa Ryoko was rejected by several shrines before to become a shrine maiden. It was not until Shimogamo Shrine that was really short of people that she got her wish.

Um.

Don't look at Hashimoto Kotone, just see Nanase and Sasaki Haruka like this.

They are already considered new spiritual masters with great potential.

And it is different from other talents.

Spiritual power cannot be improved through a short period of exercise.

Even for Qiao Qiao, it would take about two hours to read a copy of "Quick O Day" in order to increase his spiritual power by 0.5 standard units.

The innate spiritual power of Hashimoto-san and the others is a rare luxury for Kitagawa Ryoko.

There is a Chinese proverb.

The hard work of mortals is no match for the whim of genius.

As a mortal, Qiao Qiao understands this deeply.

I'm only halfway through the information.

Ding--

The phone beeped.
