The next day, Murata returned to school, went through the formalities for returning to school, and then resumed normal schooling.

All the half-year cultural lessons that were missed before had to be made up.Originally, Murata's cultural courses were barely passable, but after missing classes for half a year, his grades rose to the bottom of the whole high school.Although there are only four students in the whole second grade, the ranking cannot be used as a reference-but it is indeed a bit difficult to explain if you fail every paper.

In the first week back to school, Murata spent his extra lessons in the dark.

The make-up exam in the second week, after the exam, Murata received the task of going to Kobe.He looked at the task notice, his delicate face was wrinkled into a bun: "Isn't it? I just returned to school, so you let me go on a business trip?"

"...At most, it will only take two days to go back and forth. How can it be counted as a business trip! Besides, if you go to Kobe, can't you go to the hot springs along the way?"

The assistant supervisor Ms. Zuo Chuan, whom I haven’t seen for a long time, still looks the same as half a year ago. Facing Murata’s complaints, she is quite cold and unmoved: “At present, the known information is a second-level curse embryo, and the location is in Arima Hot Springs. ——Ah, I feel that it has something to do with the hobbies of those rich people again.”

"Every year, there will be several strange spells emerging from the horses."

Murata is still not interested.He is not interested in soaking in hot springs, but because it is a task assigned by his superiors, he will still do it.

The trivial matters such as train tickets and hotels are handled by the assistant supervisor, and Murata only needs to check the information related to the mantra.After confirming the address and the situation of the curse spirit, the assistant supervisor will drive the conjurer to the destination to exorcise the curse spirit.

Departing in the morning, it takes about an hour to drive.

Murata squinted in the car, and when he arrived at the station, Miss Zuochuan woke him up, and the two got off the car together.It was only past nine o'clock, and it was not the opening time of the hot spring, so even if the hot spring was not open, it did not cause much commotion.

The policemen who were in charge of dealing with conjurers replaced the patrolmen in the hot springs, and instructed the supervisor to negotiate with them.Murata was too lazy to run, so he squatted under the shadow of the car and waited for Miss Zuochuan, and checked his phone by the way.

[Murata: I'm going to Kobe to do a mission, do you want a souvenir?

Fu Heihui: I can do both.

Fu Heihui: I have to do some tasks later, and the phone may be turned off for a while.

Fu Heihui: Wait until the task is over before calling.

Murata: Good.

Murata: Is it the mission in Tokyo?

Fu Heihui: Well, a curse spirit appeared in a juvenile courtyard, and the three of us in the first grade had to go there.

Murata: Let's get in touch after the mission is over~

Fu Heihui: Good. 】

"Murata—"

Miss Zuo Chuan called him from a distance, he turned off his cell phone and stood up, with his hands in his sleeves, and walked slowly over: "What do you say?"

Zuo Chuan: "The problem is Yinquan. Because Arima Hot Spring itself has very precious historical significance, the person in charge hopes to minimize the loss, especially those buildings - if it can not be damaged, it is best not to destroy the buildings .”

This is why the above assigned the task to Murata.Murata is currently the official known conjurer with the most complete buildings preserved on each mission site.

Zuo Chuan finally concluded: "Although the higher-ups require that the building should not be damaged as much as possible, they are not unacceptable to some small losses when it is necessary. Our first task is to exorcise the curse spirit, and other considerations can be postponed."

"Okay, let's get the tent down, quick fix, I think I'll be back before supper—"

Zuo Chuan shook his head helplessly: the power of Lianjia is really terrifying.

Although the area where the curse spirit appeared is only Yinquan, in order to prevent accidents, the scope of the tent covers the entire Arima Onsen.Murata needed a map to find the location of Silver Spring.

He glanced at the map casually and rolled it up.Anyway, it wasn't the first time he came here, and he knew the way to Yinquan, so he didn't need a map at all.

After the tent is unfolded, the world inside the tent seems to be plunged into darkness.The curse, which cannot be seen under normal circumstances, is also revealed in the 'tent'.With his right hand, Murata pressed the hilt of the Japanese sword, and walked steadily across the stone steps.

off account.

Zuo Chuan was checking the nearby shops with a tablet—before entering the account, Murata said that she wanted to bring a gift to a friend, so she thought of helping Murata record the route by the way.This kind of matter has naturally exceeded the part that the auxiliary supervisor needs to be responsible for, but Zuo Chuan has always treated Murata as a younger brother, so he doesn't find it troublesome.

A message from the superior popped up in the message notification bar of the tablet, and Zuo Chuan paused while inquiring about the map, and opened the message instead.

[A: After the mission is over, there is no need to rush back.

Zuo Chuan: What's wrong?

A: I am also doing it for your own good. It is best to wait until tomorrow before coming back.

Zuo Chuan: Is something important going to happen in Kyoto?

A:...

A: Not Kyoto.

A: Don't ask too much, this is not something that the auxiliary supervisor should manage.You don't want the conjurer you are responsible for to have an accident, do you?Find a way to keep Murata in Kobe, as long as today is over, you will be fine. 】

The ambiguous conversation ended here, and Zuo Chuan sent several messages to the senior, but no reply was received.She was nervous, and sent messages to other colleagues to inquire - other assistant supervisors said that there was nothing wrong with the place they were in charge of, and the conjurers who often cooperated did not show any abnormality.

The more she asked, the more she felt strange: At present, whether it is Kyoto or Tokyo, the two places with the most concentrated and active conjurers, they seem to be operating normally as usual, and no major incidents have occurred.

"Huh!"

The clear boyish voice sounded behind him, making Zuo Chuan's hands tremble in fright, and the tablet fell down.

Murata laughed out loud, relying on his tall legs and long legs, hooked his toes easily, bent down to pick up the tablet, and returned it to Zuo Chuan: "Wow, Zuo Chuan, you can't help but be scared."

"The curse spirit is expelled! I accidentally smashed a corridor, but the hot spring was not damaged~"

Zuo Chuan forced a smile, took the tablet, "This, so fast?"

Murata showed a proud expression: "Of course, because I am very good. It's almost lunch time now! Shall we go to have lunch before returning to Kyoto? Oh, yes, give me back my mobile phone, I want to give it to you. Message from a friend."

Zuo Chuan returned the mobile phone to Murata, maintaining a calm expression on his face: "Yes, I have already booked the location of the hotel. Didn't you say before that you want to bring a gift to your friend? I checked the nearby commercial street, do you want it in the afternoon?" Go back after shopping for souvenirs?"

"Um... well."

Murata took his phone, unlocked it, and checked all the unreads, but he didn't see Fu Heihui's unreads.He was in high spirits just now, but suddenly his mood dropped a lot, and he muttered in a low voice: "What kind of task is it taking so long... Didn't you say that three people went in?"

He sent two messages to Fu Heihui, then turned off the screen of his phone, and went to dinner with Zuo Chuan.After the meal, Zuo Chuan took Murata to the commercial street to pick out souvenirs, and the selection was wasted time, by the time they finished shopping in the commercial street, it was already past six o'clock.

Zuo Chuan glanced at the time on his phone and said, "Leave after dinner?"

Murata frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Let's go back and eat."

Zuo Chuan showed a hesitant look, holding his mobile phone, wondering if he should take Murata back.

"Miss Zuo Chuan—"

"Ugh?!"

She looked at Murata in a panic.Murata blinked, and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't be nervous, I'm just calling you. Do you have your own private affairs? I think you've been out of your mind all day today."

Zuo Chuan was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a forced smile, trying to cover up the matter: "No, no... I may be too tired. The task schedule has been relatively intensive in the past few days—"

When she spoke, she looked dodgy, and she knew it was not the truth at a glance.The biggest advantage of Murata is that he looks like KY, but he is actually a master at reading atmosphere.

He never asked about the embarrassing things for the other party, and even changed the subject thoughtfully: "Then we will take the JR back later? I am afraid of overturning when I am tired of driving."

Zuo Chuan lowered his eyes, avoiding Murata's gaze, "Okay...Okay."

Taking JR was delayed for another two hours, and I reported to the school when I got back. I was not in a hurry to get the task report today, but it was necessary to write.Today, the principal of Leyan Temple didn't know why he was going crazy, so he insisted on asking him how he felt about his first mission after returning to work. Murata was confused by the sudden concern of the principal, and after a long time of perfunctory, he finally wrote a [-]-word exorcism The aftermath of the curse.

By the time he met the teacher and left the school, it was already past ten o'clock.Murata glanced at his phone again, the message interface was still stuck on the two messages he sent to Fu Heihui, Fu Heihui didn't reply him?

Still not done?It's already ten o'clock?

Murata frowned, and sent another message to Gojo Satoru.

[Murata: Teacher Wujo, do you know what Fukurohui is doing now?

Teacher Wutiao: Wow, don't ask me about this kind of young couple who want each other's information after they quarrel!

Teacher Wutiao: I don’t have a girlfriend yet, and neither do I have a boyfriend!It's cruel to ask me such a question!Go directly to Huila, he must be waiting for your call.

Murata: There was no quarrel.

Murata: Hui told me to go out on a mission in the morning, but he didn't send me any more messages after that.Under normal circumstances, would the task of exorcising the curse spirit be delayed for so long?

Teacher Wutiao: Haven't responded to your message since this morning?

Murata: Yes.I was very worried about him and couldn't get in touch, so I sent you a message.

Teacher Wutiao: I see.

Teacher Wutiao: I’m out of town, so I’m going back now.

Teacher Wutiao: Don’t worry, teacher, I am very strong, and I promise to make your boyfriend appear in front of you with arms and legs~

Teacher Wutiao: (Love)]

Murata looked at the heart that Gojo Satoru sent over, and felt that his skin was about to get goosebumps.As long as he associates this symbol with the teacher who is 1.9 meters tall and has two thick arms like his, it is hard not to feel a little physiological nausea.

Why does this big man act like a JK so much?

gross……

Cut out to look at Fu Heihui's chat box, Fu Heihui has not replied to him, Murata felt a little bored, so he turned off the phone screen.At this point, there is no way to go back to the Tokyo dojo, and Murata plans to spend the night at his residence in Kyoto.

Before going to bed, he looked at his phone again, but there was still no reply from Fu Heihui.Murata felt strange and couldn't fall asleep—he lay on the bed for a while, and felt that what he was lying on was not a soft bed, but a fine needle-like discomfort.

He couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning. If Murata was a piece of cake, according to his tossing and turning, he would have burnt both sides of himself long ago.

"Oh... terribly, I feel like I have insomnia."

Turning over from the bed, Murata rubbed his hair irritably, feeling dull and dry in his heart.He touched the phone on the bedside table and turned on the screen. The time showed that it was past two o'clock in the morning.

Usually he should be asleep at this point, but today he just couldn't sleep, and the more he slept, the more annoying he became.Murata let out a breath, sat up simply, turned on the desk lamp, opened the window, and looked out.

Outside are busy streets and commercial streets.There is no real night in the bustling area of ​​Kyoto. The building with the projected billboards is still brightly lit. I don’t know if the people inside are going to work overtime all night or get off work later.

Isn't it strange that this kind of society doesn't produce curses?It's a dead loop——

Murata couldn't help complaining in his heart, feeling that the work of a conjurer was longer than that of a ghost hunter and swordsman, and there was no end in sight.Unless one day the curse can coexist with humans and become as common as a cold.

The screen of the phone that had been turned off suddenly turned on in his hand, and several unread messages popped up.Murata lowered his eyes, glanced twice without hope, his hand that was about to turn off the screen suddenly stopped: it was a reply letter from Fu Heihui!

[Fu Heihui: I'm fine.

Fu Heihui: My mission has also been completed.

Fu Heihui: Sorry, I have been busy with other things just now, and I just got my phone back from the assistant supervisor.

Fu Heihui: Are you asleep?

Fu Heihui: Forget it, go to sleep.

Fu Heihui: Good night. 】

On the rest chair outside the high-tech treatment room.

Fu Heihui propped his arms on his knees and lowered his head slightly.The shadow cast by the black bangs covered most of his face, and the pair of dark green pupils in the dimness were terrifyingly quiet.

There were bandage marks on his face and exposed arms, and there was still blood on the side of his forehead after drying.

Nagasaki Wild Rose walked past him, frowning, her mouth tightly pursed.She stood in front of Fu Heihui for a while, her chin slightly raised: "I'm going back to sleep, how about you?"

Fu Heihui: "...I'll be alone."

Nagasaki Wild Rose turned her head away, as if deliberately announcing something, and repeated loudly: "I'm going back to sleep!"

"I'm a little bit! I'm not sad at all! Anyway, I've been mentally prepared! Instead of keeping vigil here, it's better to save energy and continue..."

The call rang suddenly in the corridor, Nagasaki Ye Qiangwei opened her eyes wide: "Fuhei, your phone is ringing."

Fu Heihui froze for a moment, then looked down at the caller ID.The speed of his hands was faster than that of his brain, as if it was a conditioned reflex - by the time he realized it, the call had already been connected.

On the other end of the phone, the voice from the signal line was slightly distorted: "Did I disturb your sleep?"

Fu Heihui: "...No. You haven't slept yet?"

"I have insomnia and can't sleep. Want to meet?"
