Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today.

After clearing the "Son of Sin" from the body of the opponent, Haruna Shikagawa, Ritsuka Fujimaru used suggestion magic to make the opponent go to the police station to surrender voluntarily and accept legal sanctions.

But compared to prison, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that the other party would more likely be sent to a mental hospital in the end.

At this point, the Ikebukuro Murderer incident can be considered to have come to an end. All that remains is to eliminate the remaining [Children of Sin Song] and the operation will be successfully completed.

However, although the killer has been found and solved, some questions remain unanswered.

For example, if Anri Sonohara really did not actively create the [Child of Sin Song] as she said, then who created the [Child of Sin Song] in Haruna Shikagawa's body?

"In fact, I know that my mother should be the previous owner of [Sin Song]."

Anri Sonohara seemed to understand this, but when her mother's matter was mentioned, her expression became a little gloomy, and she whispered:

"It's just that...she died five years ago, so..."

"Ah, sorry."

Seeing the sadness that was hard to conceal on the other person's face, Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously said sorry.

Although they didn't know what happened in Anri Sonohara's past, it was obviously a painful experience that she didn't want to talk about, so they didn't pursue it further.

In any case, the original purpose of Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others was just to stop the slasher from continuing his crimes. As for other things, they were not within their scope of management.

"correct,"

Fujimaru Ritsuka thought of something else and said to Sonohara Anri with a serious face:

"If that sexually harassing teacher in your school dares to do anything again, don't hesitate, just draw your knife and chop him!"

"Eh?"

"Don't worry, as long as he doesn't die on the spot, other things can be easily solved. If it really doesn't work, you can come to us directly."

"In short, don't compromise, and don't give in, understand?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka gave earnest advice to Sonohara Anri.

Although she had not spent much time with Anri Sonohara, she always felt that she was the type who would silently endure being bullied, so she could not help but remind her again and again.

Feeling the concern that Fujimaru Ritsuka expressed for her in his words, Anri Sonohara felt a warm current rising in her heart and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.

At the same time, an indescribable emotion was quietly growing in her heart.

Although at school, Kida Masaomi and Ryuugamine Teito also took good care of her, she also valued their friendship very much.

However, because of the existence of [Sin Song] in her body, she was afraid that the two would regard her as a monster after learning about this and stay away from her, so there was always an invisible barrier between them.

But there is no such problem with Ritsuka Fujimaru.

The other person is an extraordinary existence just like her. After knowing almost everything about her, he is still willing to care about her and help her. Although they have only known each other for less than a day, in her heart, Fujimaru Ritsuka has become someone she can be honest with.

Moreover, the strength and gentleness displayed by Fujimaru Ritsuka makes people feel at ease unconsciously, and they want to rely on each other and talk to each other...

This long-lost feeling is like having my mother.

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't know that his image in Sonohara Anri's mind began to develop in a somewhat strange direction.

After dealing with the problem of Haruna Jikawa, the subsequent finishing work became easy and smooth again, and finally all the [Sons of Sin] were completely eliminated at around midnight, and the mission was successfully completed.

Because it was getting late, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others first sent Anri Sonohara to her home. Then Ryougi Shiki quickly canceled the summons and returned to Chaldea. Only Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mashu, and Pest, who was invisible throughout, were left to return home.

"Um--"

On the way home, Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but stretch, then he let out a long sigh and showed a relaxed smile.

"Everything is almost settled. I can take a long vacation now!"

It has only been three days since she came back, and there is still more than a month until the harvest festival in the small garden. In other words, she has at least one month of free time.

Of course, the premise is that no strange problems will arise after this.

...Well, that shouldn't be the case, right?

-

"So boring——"

Orihara Izaya drew out his words, lying bored on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling above his head in a daze.

I don’t know whether to say that the current situation is unlucky or lucky.

Unfortunately, he was suddenly struck by lightning on a night without rain; fortunately, the injury was not serious. After examination, it was said that there was only some nerve damage and his mobility would be slightly reduced in the future.

“It’s not like I can say I’m lucky.”

He couldn't help but sneer.

At least for him, the mere fact of being unable to move was already a serious injury.

"It seems that I can't appear in front of Xiaojing anymore."

Shizuo Heiwajima is a monster hiding in civilized society in human skin. He is undoubtedly a stain on the human community that he loves so much.

Ever since the day he met the other person, he has always wanted to kill the other person; of course, the other person's attitude towards him is the same.

Having said that, he didn't want to think about these issues for the time being as he was recovering from his injuries, so he turned on the TV and was about to watch a program, but was suddenly attracted by the news that was being broadcast.

"The well-known pharmaceutical company [Yagiri Pharmaceutical] was exposed to be privately involved in violent activities, black trade, and even illegal human experiments. The police have arrested and detained the relevant persons involved..."

"Ok?"

He raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, not understanding why Yagiri Pharmaceutical suddenly revealed its true colors. After all, it was a well-established large company, how could it not even handle this kind of problem?

He had taken the trouble to collect so much information, but before he could use it, the other party had already perished.

"Tsk, useless stuff."

He spat, but he was more concerned about what happened to his original target - Celti's head.

Thinking of this, he took out his cell phone and made a call.

"beep."

The call was connected and then a young male voice came from the other end of the line.

"So you're not dead yet, Izaya. What's the matter with the call?"

"Thanks to you, I'm still alive and kicking."

Orihara Rin raised his lips slightly and said:

“But Silla, I was injured so badly, and as a good friend, you didn’t even come to visit me? You are really a heartless man.”

"Of course, all my feelings are on Celty, and I don't have any extra to give to others."

Kishitani Silla said as a matter of course:

"Besides, you are a complete punishment from God, right? How about trying to do less bad things?"

"This request is a bit too difficult for me, but since it's the doctor's order, I'll give it a try."

“——Silla, come and eat!”

“Here I come——!”

A strange female voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone, followed by Kishitani Silla's sweet response.

Hearing this, Orihara Izaya finally said in surprise:

“Oh my! Even Silla, a pervert like you, has learned to cheat?”

"What nonsense are you talking about, that's Celty."

"……Eh?"
