Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

From as far back as she could remember, she had been constantly going in and out of the hospital.

Around the beginning of spring this year, Makino-hara Shoko's condition worsened.

It was during one of her hospitalizations that she encountered Menma, who was lingering in Kyoto Municipal Hospital.

At first, Makino-hara Shoko could only see a blurry white shadow.

As time gradually passed, and her physical condition deteriorated day by day… Menma's figure and face became clearer and clearer, until now, she could see her perfectly clearly.

Due to her frequent hospitalizations, Makino-hara Shoko didn't have many friends.

Although Menma was a ghost, her personality was no different from when she was alive, and coupled with the fact that they were of similar age, they became friends.

Makino-hara Shoko hadn't told anyone about Menma, not even her parents.

After all, being able to see ghosts and becoming friends with them was something that ordinary people wouldn't believe; they would only think that she was suffering from a mental illness due to excessive stress.

Even if, by some miracle, her parents believed Makino-hara Shoko's story, they would only go and hire exorcists or something.

Makino-hara Shoko didn't want Menma to be driven away, so she had been concealing the truth.

As for the rumors of ghosts appearing late at night?

Makino-hara Shoko went to bed early every day and had never personally witnessed the rumored ghosts.

"I see…"

After listening to Makino-hara Shoko's explanation, Futaba Rio and Yotsuya Miko nodded, having a general understanding of what had happened.

"This is difficult…"

Futaba Rio habitually pushed up her glasses, her brain working at full speed, realizing that this bizarre incident was extremely difficult to handle.

Putting aside the power of the one or more evil spirits they might have to face.

Kyoto Municipal Hospital had a very high population density, and any battle would inevitably affect innocent bystanders.

If it were a different place, such as a school or a shopping mall, it would be fine.

At worst, Yozora could use his "Mask" identity to negotiate with Kyoto's number one square-face, Yagami Souichirou, and have him, as the head of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department, make up a reason to evacuate the people on site.

But a hospital was not a place that could be evacuated so easily.

Many seriously ill patients were not even conscious, let alone those who were being resuscitated.

A rash transfer would be tantamount to taking their lives.

"Thank you for providing the information."

Futaba Rio said softly, then got up with Yotsuya Miko, preparing to turn around and leave.

Makino-hara Shoko opened her lips, but in the end, just before the two were about to leave the room, she couldn't help but speak.

"Will the people in the hospital… be in danger?"

Yotsuya Miko turned around, her golden eyes filled with a gentle smile.

"Don't worry, we became exorcists to protect Kyoto."

"And…"

"We have Kyoto's number one exorcist on our side."

Futaba Rio pushed up her glasses and retorted.

"Isn't he Butter Shooter?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Makino-hara-san is still young."

"Oh."

Watching Futaba Rio and Yotsuya Miko leave, Menma opened her mouth slightly, her eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.

"Shoko, Shoko."

She tugged at Makino-hara Shoko's sleeve.

"Those two sisters are so cool!"

Makino-hara Shoko smiled gently and nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, they're really cool."

…

At the same time, Kyoto's number one exorcist in Yotsuya Miko's words, Butter Shooter in Futaba Rio's words, Sobu High's number one villain, Sakura Province's most vicious criminal, the successor of Multiple Skip, the natural Minamoto no Yoshitsune, the congenital Abstract Holy Body, Master Yozora, was accompanying the Kawasaki sisters.

Kawasaki Kyoka, her face flushed, was lying on the hospital bed receiving an IV drip.

Her fever had reached a high temperature of over 38 degrees Celsius, but she had been stubbornly holding on.

Fortunately, they had arrived relatively early, otherwise, if they had delayed any longer, some serious problems might have occurred.

"Big brother…"

Even though she had fallen into a deep sleep, Kawasaki Kyoka was still talking in her sleep, her face filled with a happy expression.

Sitting by the bed, Kawasaki Saki couldn't help but sigh and rub her forehead, looking at Yozora who was sitting on the other side.

"My sister really likes you."

"Hey, look at what you're saying."

Yozora waved his hand dismissively and smiled.

"How could there be anyone in this world who hates me?"

Kawasaki Saki rolled her eyes helplessly.

"There are quite a few people who hate you at school, right?"

"Hmm? That's completely untrue."

Yozora looked relaxed and smiled.

"I don't even consider them people."

Kawasaki Saki frowned slightly and sighed softly.

"It's your terrible personality that's causing you to have so few friends."

Yozora retorted.

"Aren't you my friend?"

"Eh?"

Kawasaki Saki was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed slightly, her expression awkward, using a stiff tone to hide the shyness in her heart.

"You… what are you saying, non… nonsense!"

Yozora chuckled and teased.

"It's not me saying, but your defense is too low, I haven't even gotten serious yet, I just said it casually."

Yozora had figured it out.

The more cold-looking, beautiful girls were, the lower their defense was.

For example, Kawasaki Saki in front of him.

For example, Touma Kazusa.

For example, Yukinoshita Yukino…

Oh, her defense wasn't that low, it's just that her weakness was exposed as soon as Yono's matter was mentioned.

"That…"

Kawasaki Saki calmed herself down, glanced at Yozora shyly, and, as if she had mustered all her courage, stammered.

"To, today's matter, and the introduction to the part-time job… all… all thanks to you, tha… thank you."

Kawasaki Saki wasn't an ungrateful person.

She remembered all the favors Yozora had done for her, one by one.

Like accompanying her today to bring her sister to see a doctor and get an IV drip.

And also introducing a part-time job that suited her interests, that could be done at home, that wasn't so tiring, and that paid well, making cosplay costumes.

And even introducing Kitagawa Marin, a professional who was very knowledgeable about cosplay, to her.

Even the cost of the materials she needed for her initial practice was paid for from the Overload Society's activity funds.

Kawasaki Saki felt that someone like her, Yozora wouldn't be doing this because he wanted something from her.

Don't look at his appearance…

In reality, he was a very gentle and kind person.

"Yozora."

Hearing the voice coming from the doorway, seeing Futaba Rio and Yotsuya Miko standing outside the door, Kawasaki Saki used a gentle tone she had never used before in her life, and said softly to Yozora.

"Go and get busy, I can stay here and accompany Kyoka."

"Okay."

Yozora replied, then left the ward, closing the door behind him.

…

Ten minutes later, Futaba Rio had told him all the clues she had collected along the way, including the encounter with Menma and Makino-hara Shoko, in detail.

"I see."

Yozora nodded slightly, thinking that this made sense.

It seemed that the first tarot card, "Death," from Mother Superior's divination, didn't have much deep meaning, it was just the closest meaning to the card itself.

Death.

It wasn't the death of a member of the Overload Society, but it foreshadowed the important people the members would encounter.

Whether it was the rare ghost, Menma, who had no malice towards humans, also known as Honma Meiko.

Or Makino-hara Shoko, who was gradually opening her yin-yang eyes during this period when her physical condition was getting worse.

Both of these people were associated with death.

After all, one was a dead person, and the other was someone who was already halfway into the grave.

This made sense.

"An evil spirit that can possess a corpse…"

Seeing Yozora looking thoughtful, Futaba Rio added.

"It could also be a special evil spirit with the ability to manipulate human corpses."

"Either way, the danger is too great."

Ordinary evil spirits couldn't harm humans.

But the evil spirit appearing in Kyoto Municipal Hospital, whether it could possess human corpses or manipulate human corpses to move, possessed extremely high danger.

"Yeah."

Yozora nodded and said in a deep voice.

"That's terrifying, if this bastard took advantage of the nurses being lazy every night and ran to every intensive care unit to pull out the tubes, how many people would die."

"Uh…"

Futaba Rio and Yotsuya Miko were both stunned.

This idea…

Although it was outrageous, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be the most convenient and quickest way to cause human death?

It would be normal for a few people to die in the ICU.

It was fortunate that Yozora was on the side of humans.

If he died one day and transformed into an evil spirit, with this kind of unexpected idea, which exorcist could drive him away?
