I pretended nothing happened and asked two awkward teenagers for important information.
"Have you heard any strange rumors in Yokohama, such as strange things happening at night, or where people often disappear inexplicably?"
Zhong Yuanzhong was also silent for a while: "Although I don't know why you ask such a question, you can go to the slums to find out. The law and order there is not good, even if someone disappears, no one will care about their life and death. If you must Be careful if you go there."
Osamu Dazai took out his mobile phone and pressed the buttons on it, and said softly, "Since we know that the previous generation is not a curse spirit, then it's easy to solve, Chuya, we should go, the time we stayed here is longer than expected."
"Tsk, you bastard, don't order me!"
The orange-haired boy scratched his head, impatiently following Osamu Dazai's footsteps.
I wave goodbye to the two teenagers.
Everyone on Radium Bowl Street knows how bad the relationship between the Port Mafia and [Sheep] is, but now the leader of [Sheep] is blatantly cooperating with members of the Port Mafia to investigate something.
I turned my head and stared at Xia Youjie, who froze for a while and looked at me in a daze.
"Please tell me clearly, why did you fight with Zhongyuan Zhongye, and why is Yuanyi not by your side?"
"I heard his companion mentioned you, so I couldn't help but stepped forward and asked a few words. Maybe it was because of his bad attitude that he started fighting like this." Xia Youjie rubbed him embarrassedly. Neck, eyes drifting: "As for Senior Yuanyi... He said on the way that he sensed the breath of a ghost, so I temporarily separated from him."
As a ghost slayer in the Warring States period, Ji Guoyuan is very sensitive to the breath of ghosts.
I checked the status of my shikigami panel, and there was nothing unusual about Ji Guoyuan’s condition so far. I thought about it carefully and decided: “Let’s go to the slums first, and then go to Yuanyi. one."
Xia Youjie has no objection to my decision.
It's just that when we left the game hall, he suddenly said something muffled beside me: "I'm still too weak."
I froze for a moment, staring sideways at him for a while, not knowing what to say.
Among conjurers of the same age, Xia Youjie's talent and hard work are obvious to all except the six eyes who are the ceiling of the conjuration world.But in the previous battle with Zhongye in the Central Plains, he was severely suppressed.
The boy with his head bowed beside him was like a lost little fox, with his big ears drooping and his tail drooping listlessly.
I endured it, but I couldn't help but stepped forward and touched the fox's head: "It's okay, if you want to go back for training... I can accompany you anytime."
Anyway, Xia Youjie and I have indeed become stronger together for so many years.
Pulling the coaxed little fox, we came to the area of the slums, and after just a glance, I understood why Chuya Nakahara told me to pay more attention to safety.
The environment in the slums was even worse than I imagined. The adults and children I could see were all skinny, and some of them were seriously ill and dying, or their bodies were scarred by battles.
"Here..." Xia Youjie took a deep breath, lowered his voice and the nameless anger in his heart: "Is there no one to care about?"
I squeezed his hand and whispered, "Calm down, this is Yokohama."
In Yokohama, where there are many supernatural beings, the power cannot be balanced. Apart from the supernatural organization recognized by the government, the Supernatural Secret Service Section, the other is the port mafia.
"Anyway, be careful. Although there are rumors that someone will disappear for no reason, there is no guarantee that it must be caused by ghosts." My eyes swept over a few long-haired women, and they all subconsciously hugged the ones in their arms or behind them. Child, seeing such a reaction, I withdraw my gaze: "It may also be artificial."
"Man-made? You mean... someone is in the business of abducting and selling children?"
"Probably."
Karna suddenly stopped and looked into the distance. He pointed to a direction and said to us, "There are people gathered there."
Xia Youjie and I looked at each other, and immediately walked towards the direction Karna pointed.
Hiding behind the container, we peeked out our heads curiously. In this hidden place, we could see four men wearing berets and simple shirt vests, discussing something in a low voice.
"... Definitely right! I observed it before, only one of the little ghosts in that building has supernatural powers, and the others are ordinary little ghosts, so you can deal with it casually."
"Are you sure that kid with supernatural powers has gone out?"
"His sister is sick, he must go out to get medicine for his sister, and his sister is also good-looking... definitely sell it for a good price!"
"Okay, then we will act later."
"Catch those brats and leave quickly. I don't want to be chased by a rabid dog that doesn't bark."
I grabbed Xia Youjie who was about to go out and beat someone up: "I don't know if there are any of their accomplices, let's follow first."
Xia Youjie calmed down and nodded.
The roads in the slums are complicated, and it is easy for newcomers to get lost in them. From the moment we entered the slums, Xia Youjie released a magic spirit that can detect in the air to guide the way.
"These people should be habitual offenders." I pointed to the man with the scar on his face in a low voice: "They are not afraid of getting lost at all, and they went straight to the target."
"...where are those children going to be sold?"
"It's hard to say, it may be in a remote mountain village, or it may be directly transported to a foreign country through the port."
Yokohama is close to the coast, and the fastest transfer method should be to transport the captured children to cities other than Yokohama in the form of cargo.
In the slum there are several buildings left over from the explosion.
Several of these buildings are occupied by people capable of fighting, or children as a living base.
We followed the four adults to a building, about five stories high, part of the top floor had been blown up, and only two floors were left to live in.
but……
"Is that a curse spirit?" Xia Youjie looked at the giant bird nesting on the roof with some excitement.
I also looked up, and it was hard not to notice the huge black bird lying on its side on the top of the building, especially the five eyes, which made people feel a little dizzy just by looking at it.And those adults didn't see anything, just sneaked into the building.
Is it a mental attack type spell spirit?
What surprised me even more was that these children from the slums could actually live under the same roof as a first-level curse spirit, which is incredible.
I glanced at the boy next to me: "Do you want it?"
Xia Youjie was stunned for a moment, looked at me, then at the giant bird: "Is it possible?"
I smiled, raised my hand and recited the tent's incantation: "Born from darkness, blacker than black, filthy and filthy, all filthy."
The black tent fell quickly over the roof.
The giant bird sensed the change of mood and exploded instantly. It stood up from the roof, spread its wings and screamed loudly, and its five eyes turned around to look for our traces.
Xia Youjie opened his mouth: "Zhenqin, there are ordinary people in there."
"Well, I know." I tilted my head and looked at him, pointing at the irritable giant bird: "Come and subdue the curse spirits outside, I'll go in and defeat those bad guys, so it won't be a waste of money ."
"...I see, let's make a quick decision."
Xia Youjie raised his hand and swiped forward lightly, and two curse spirits appeared beside him.
When the curse spirit jumped at the giant bird in the sky, I bent down, accelerated my pace and rushed into the entrance of the building - behind me was the loud sound of the curse spirit entangled with the curse spirit and fell to the ground.
There are many boxes, sundries and clothes piled up in the space on the first floor. Looking at the few coats hanging there, one can probably guess that most of the people living here are underage children.
So I looked up to the stairs.
Then the second floor should be where the children live.
"Huh—it's finally quiet, aren't these brats too troublesome?"
"After all, I've been with that rabid dog that doesn't bark for a long time, so it's normal to bite people."
"This little girl is that guy's sister?"
"That's right!"
"Don't touch her!!"
"Shut up kid, figure out the current situation, you guys are useless without that guy Akutagawa. Even if we kill these girls here today, you can't do anything."
"But these girls are really pretty..."
"Well, Boss, if you look at the money...?"
"After selling at a good price, the money will be yours."
I saved this recording with my mobile phone outside the house, and after sending it to others by email, I kicked open the door in front of me.
"Gui'an, everyone."
I put my legs down, smiled, and walked into the room.
There were four adults with knives and six or seven children tied up with ropes in the room. They were all about teenagers, and the youngest was probably only six years old.
"There is still a fish that slipped through the net?!"
"No, boss... You don't look like she looks like the people here!"
"Tsk, arrest her too, that face alone can be worth the price of several people here."
I slightly restrained my smile, raised my phone and quickly took a few photos of several people and the children on the ground: "I have already called the police, do you want to stay here and be arrested, or run away from here now?"
"Without supernatural powers and without professional training, you can't even beat girls. Why do you dare to come out to do human trafficking business when you are so weak?"
I tied up the four stunned adults and threw them in the communication room. While complaining, I picked up the knife on the ground and let the children loosen the rope.
Several children leaned on each other, checking each other's injuries.
One or two older students looked at me cautiously: "Excuse me, are you...?"
"Ah, I'm just an ordinary person. I heard their plan when I passed by, and I followed them with some worries." I turned my head to look at the girl with black hair, her fair face was painted with an abnormal red color : "The child is sick, is there a doctor here who can see him?"
"Yes, it's just a little farther away."
"Akutagawa has already gone to the doctor."
I walked over to the girl and asked friendlyly to the two girls who were holding her, "Can I touch her forehead?"
The children made eye contact and finally nodded.
The temperature under my palm made me a little worried. I quickly withdrew my hand and looked at the worried children around: "She has a high temperature, can you prepare cold water and towels? If you don't have antipyretics, you can use a wet towel first." Cool her down."
"I'll go downstairs and look for it!"
"I am coming too!"
I turned my head and glanced: "Remember to open the windows for ventilation, the boy will leave the room temporarily, and we will wipe the boy's body later. By the way, there is another boy outside who is my companion named Xia Youjie , If you need any help, you can tell him."
After Xia Youjie subdued the curse spirit, he was surrounded by three boys as soon as he entered the building.
"Is it Xia Youjie?"
"Ah? Ah... I am."
"The water pipe on our side is broken and can't receive cold water, can you fix it?!"
"..."
Xia Youjie, who was belatedly aware of it, was full of doubts while checking the water pipes.
Why is he fixing the plumbing here?
"Have you heard any strange rumors in Yokohama, such as strange things happening at night, or where people often disappear inexplicably?"
Zhong Yuanzhong was also silent for a while: "Although I don't know why you ask such a question, you can go to the slums to find out. The law and order there is not good, even if someone disappears, no one will care about their life and death. If you must Be careful if you go there."
