I have found out your real name

Chapter 5 Behind you

"It started raining suddenly..."

Rain streaked across the open umbrella and splashed onto the slippery ground.

The conversation between Bad and Uehara that he heard during the day made Li Wu a little concerned.

Firstly, out of the moral integrity of his classmates, he felt that he could not sit idly by if it was an incident of blackmail or violence; secondly, he was also somewhat curious about Masaki Uehara, who held the title of [Spiritual Physique Owner].

The completion level of [Exorcist] has increased from 3% to 3.5%. No matter how you think about it, it is inseparable from killing Yinba. If you speculate like this, increasing Uehara's favorability may have a big effect.

To be cautious, I also brought the enchanted stationery I got while researching abilities last night.

Be prepared! He stepped over the small puddle in front of him with a light heart.

Uehara Masaki ran and stepped through the puddle in front of him, letting the splash of muddy water stain his pants.

The location is an unknown dark alley.

The alley was even darker at night, and his footsteps seemed to be amplified by some unknown force, echoing like muffled thunder in the twists and turns of the dark alley.

Fear urged him to run forward, even though logically he should have run out of this short alley long ago. The familiar road seemed to turn into the intestines of an unknown creature at this moment, and even the rain dripping on the body gave off a disgusting sticky feeling.

However, you still have to run forward.

Because the pursuer's voice sounded from behind again.

"Wa-po-"

It reminds me of the clear sound of clogs hitting the ground.

To Uehara at this moment, it was nothing more than a cry for life.

The moment I heard this sound, my body felt a sharp pain in protest, and my vision seemed to be covered with a red filter. I couldn't help but reach out and wipe it, and what I touched was warm liquid.

The pain traveling along his nerves forced him to fall to the ground, and he could only turn his head slightly to look behind him.

What caught the eye was a gray mist-like figure with no hands. The ends of the narrow lower limbs were wearing double clogs, which made intermittent collision sounds with the ground. Where the face usually is, there is only a pair of open mouths, revealing white teeth.

A voice as thin as a child's was squeezed out from between the teeth: "Behind you——"

"I'm behind you too, Mr. Bo."

The gray humanoid froze for a moment, like an actor who discovered a mistake in the middle of a stage play. It stopped making sounds as if nothing had happened, and continued to walk forward on its clogs.

"It turns out this solution is really effective...but I can't just let you go!"

Li Wu raised the compass in his hand, and a bright red light emerged from the tip.

Drive away evil spirits and ward off evil spirits.

He threw the stationery of justice like a throwing knife, drawing a silver arc in the air and hitting the monster in the back.

The scene that happened to Yin Po happened again: vein-like lines wrapped around the gray humanoid's body, igniting flames where it was hit, and then the monster scattered into fly ash.

The compass for meritorious service fell to the ground, and he was about to pick it up when he saw Uehara struggling to stand up while lying on the ground.

"Is it classmate Li Wu? Thank you for saving me. This should be the second time."

Hearing this, Li Wu couldn't help but ask: "You don't seem very surprised?"

When he came to this place, he saw no sign of the delinquents, only Masaki Uehara falling to the ground.

There is also a gray humanoid figure with [Mr. Bo] on his head.

His father was engaged in a profession similar to folklore research. Under his influence, Li Wu became more or less familiar with all kinds of unpopular myths and ghost stories.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t think of monsters when I see Yinpo.

Mr. Wave (Betobeto San) is a monster that follows people walking alone on the street at night. It is characterized by making a "wave, wave" sound like wooden sandals on the ground when walking. This sound will cause severe pain to the victim. .

The way out is to go to the curb and say, "Behind you, Mr. Poe."

After personal practice, Li Wu believes that this legend is quite reliable.

Uehara staggered over. After hearing Li Wu's question, he said softly: "Come out, classmate Li Wu is definitely not a bad person."

As soon as he finished speaking, several fluffy dumplings jumped out of his shoulders, and a few more lumps that looked like mochi with black sesame-like eyes blinking appeared out of nowhere and crawled to Uehara's side. head on.

It's like a magician in a circus pulling up his cloak to reveal a hamster all over his body.

In Li Wu's eyes, it was like a bunch of people suddenly appeared in an online game, and a lot of words appeared.

[Hairy wandering spirit], [Wandering spirit that looks delicious], [Weak wandering spirit]...

Uehara smiled apologetically and suggested at this moment: "Classmate Li Wu also has questions that he wants to ask. It's still raining. Why don't you come and sit at my house? Please give me a chance to express your gratitude."

His face was still very pale, and there was a sense of terror in his eyes that his life was hanging by a thread.

Li Wu thought for a moment and realized what he meant, but he had no reason to refuse.

When we arrived at Uehara's residence, the rain had stopped.

Unexpectedly, it was a high-end apartment.

Before entering, Li Wu glanced at his reflection on the glass door.

[The Exorcist (5% completion)]

It did go up, just as he had guessed.

The decoration in the room does not match the luxurious appearance of the apartment. It can even be called simple, and it is filled with an unpopular and cold atmosphere.

Uehara led him to sit down on the sofa and brought him some tea. It was only when he returned home that he showed a relaxed look for the first time.

"My uncle bought this apartment and now I live here alone."

Without asking questions such as why his parents were not here, Li Wu waited quietly for the next step.

"First of all, Li Wu, you must have heard that Senior Dayou and the others, ah, were the group of people who were looking for me during the day, so you came here. Thank you very much."

He bowed deeply to Li Wu.

"It's just to prevent any violence. After all, we are also classmates. Speaking of which, where are those people?"

"They ran away when the thing first appeared, and I wanted to run away, but it was coming for me."

Uehara held his right hand tremblingly, and the white wandering spirits emerged, as if they were trying to comfort him, but when Li Wu's eyes glanced over, they hid behind Uehara in fear.

"As classmate Li Wu has seen, I have been able to see these unusual things, ghosts, or wandering spirits since I was a child. It was also they who told me that there is something unusual about you - we were in the same room during the day In class, they would all hide in my body because they were afraid of you.”

No wonder I can't see where your spiritual physique is manifested at all.

Li Wu complained in his heart. But it also explains why Uehara wasn't surprised that he was able to kill Mr. Poe.

Uehara continued: "Although I suffered a lot when I was young because I could see spirits, and I had a grudge against Otomo-senpai and the others... this is not important. Anyway, now I have accepted the fact that there are supernatural things in the world. Generally speaking, they also You will be on good terms with me."

"But things have been different recently." He nervously raised his tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. "I can feel that the malice directed at me has become stronger, like pranksters and frequent nightmares. Until today, I have... The monster attacked..."

"Haven't you tried going to a nearby shrine for help?"

Li Wu remembered the [Eighty Thousand Shrine Joint Committee] mentioned by Xingchuan.

"Shrine? Places like that are all lies. I've asked for amulets a long time ago, but it's of no use at all."

It seems that the other party does not have a deep understanding of the existence of extraordinary organizations.

After a long silence, Uehara stood up and walked into the bedroom. He came out with a savings card in his hand.

He said with some embarrassment: "I said I wanted to express my gratitude before, but I really can't think of how to repay the kindness of saving my life. In short, here is the pocket money I saved, which may be a little small."

Uehara's face turned red. For some high school students of this age, talking about concepts such as money, transactions, and rewards would also cause a certain sense of shame.

Li Wu was not polite and directly reached out to take it: "I'll treat you to takoyaki later. By the way, if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you can ask me for help."

I couldn't help, so I went to shake the active magical girl. Although according to her, she has a specialization in the arts, and the corresponding profession of magical girls is not to subjugate demons, but with her fighting power, Li Wu feels that it is no problem to kill a few monsters physically. .

Uehara looked moved: "Classmate Li Wu, you are really a hero like the masked knight."

Li Wu tilted his head guiltily: "It's not for any great reason... By the way, do you watch tokusatsu? Which one is your favorite?"

Then the topic somehow turned into tokusatsu exchanges.
