Bad woman, join the hunt tonight

Bang! ! !

The next moment, a huge fox head with eight pairs of eyes appeared out of nowhere, and instantly tore the demon in the alley and the surrounding walls into pieces and swallowed them into its stomach.

"This guy is a green pepper."

When the fox head gradually disappeared, Hayakawa Aki could still hear the fox demon's disgusted voice like a mature woman: "It's so disgusting. You have to charge me more for eating such disgusting food - Hmm, why does your taste feel a little different from before? Forget it, this taste is pretty good, but it's a little familiar..."

After receiving the reward, the fox demon's head disappeared into thin air. Having fulfilled the contract, it returned to its habitat in the basement of the Public Security Headquarters.

Hayakawa Aki looked at his hands in a daze for a moment - both arms were intact, except for the wounds left by the price he paid before which were still aching slightly, there was no other pain in his body.

The cost of using the fox demon's ability really disappeared?!

"Although I don't know what you are thinking, I have to tell you first that the price has not disappeared..."

At this moment, a trembling voice behind him pulled Hayakawa Aki back to his senses and made him understand the current situation. Yes, he had signed a contract with another devil and transferred the price he had to pay to her...

Hayakawa Aki turned around and found that the girl in the white dress was sweating profusely. A large area of ​​skin on her originally slender and fair right arm had disappeared, revealing the flesh underneath. Her sleeves were also soaked in blood, and some of the glaring blood was even dripping down her arm to the ground, forming a small pool of blood.

Judging from her trembling voice and the uncontrollable shaking of her right hand, the feeling of her body being torn apart was obviously an intense pain for her.

My brain was cramping, I actually forgot to turn on the pain shield first, it hurts so much...

Although he reacted immediately and adjusted the pain sensitivity to 0.1% the moment he felt the pain, the pain of his skin being exposed at that moment still made Xiangzi feel a bit of phantom pain.

She is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of pain!

As expected, pain blocking is the real magic skill. Isn't it better than the rechargeable version of the magic wand?

"Are you sure that the contract between us is true? If you find it useful, please remember to give me money and give me a good review. 25 per month..."

After blocking out the pain, Xiangzi immediately calmed down, and even calmly brought his bleeding arm to his face and began to lick it.

This is her own blood, it can't be wasted! Instead of spilling it on the ground, it's better to let her take a few sips and recover from her injuries. After all, demons can drink blood to recover their health.

The repair speed is a bit slow, is it because she is producing and selling it herself...

"...Are you okay with your injuries?"

As a demon hunter, a person who has a deep hatred for demons, Hayakawa Aki should have looked at everything that happened to the demons with indifference, and should not have shown the slightest mercy or sympathy even if they died tragically in front of him.

But perhaps it was because the demon in front of him looked exactly like a human being, and when he saw the girl, who was probably only fourteen or fifteen years old, pretending to be fine after feeling pain, Hayakawa Aki found that his heart was still not cold enough.

As someone who had paid the same price, he certainly knew how unbearable the pain was. Even when his skin and flesh were torn off in the beginning, he couldn't help but scream and cry. It was only later that he gradually got used to this kind of pain and was able to hold back from making a sound.

However, when facing the same pain, the girl in front of him didn't say a word, and even deliberately acted as if she didn't care in front of him. If Hayakawa Aki hadn't accidentally seen her painful expression just now, he might have thought that Xiangzi had no sense of pain.

Is she too strong, or is she as accustomed to pain as I am?

That’s really good. He not only gave 100 energy points for the zero-level favorability, but he is indeed a rare normal person with a conscience among the chainsaw men.

"It's okay, just a small problem~" Xiangzi waved his hand casually, "Compared to being chewed up by other demons in hell, this feels pretty good."

"Then I'll leave first. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the coffee shop in two days. Just give me the money and the bank card. Remember to apply for a card and transfer money to me quickly. I'm still waiting for the money to buy some bandages..."

But seeing that Xiangzi turned around and left the alley nonchalantly, Hayakawa Aki was silent for a moment, and finally made a decision that went against his principles.

"Wait a moment. If you walk out like this, it might cause panic. Let me get you something to bandage it."

Volume 75: The chainsaw roars in the dream: Chapter Chapter The plot is approaching

one year later.

"knock."

Following the boy's calm voice, a huge, ferocious fox head appeared out of thin air between the buildings and swallowed the huge frog demon in one gulp.

The monster that should have caused huge casualties was sent back to hell long before it could start killing people.

The only person who accomplished this was Aki Hayakawa, a public servant who worked diligently to eliminate demons.

"You've been using me quite frequently recently. Aren't you afraid that your injuries will get worse?" Before the figure disappeared, the fox demon's voice, which was obviously full of interest, came, "I thought you had found some quick way to heal, but after asking others, it seems that's not the case."

"It's a secret. I can't tell you." Hayakawa Aki said coldly, not looking very kindly at the fox demon.

Although this demon chose to assist the public security, it did not mean that it was a good demon. The reason why it chose to assist them was just to find a way to eat human flesh steadily without being killed and expelled. As for such a guy who actually still had malice towards humans, Hayakawa Aki naturally did not bother to say anything more to it.

After all, the two of them were just making a fair deal. Every time he asked the fox demon to take action, he had to sacrifice his own flesh and blood as a price. He didn't owe the fox anything.

"Hey, so cold..." With a meaningful tone, the fox demon's figure finally dissipated into the air, leaving only Hayakawa Aki standing in the middle of the empty street.

Originally, this place should have been quite lively, but after the devil appeared, the citizens who had rich experience in evacuating fled here quickly, and those who were too scared to run or those who were brave enough to watch the excitement went directly into the frog devil's stomach before Hayakawa Aki arrived.

But overall, the number of casualties was less than five, which is a very good result in the face of this level of demonic disaster.

"After all, we signed a contract, so I have no objection to paying the price for you..." A slightly resentful voice sounded behind Hayakawa Aki. Xiangzi lifted a corner of her skirt and looked at her bloody calf with heartache, "Have you been using me too often recently? I have to suffer every one or two days!"

"…Recently, demons have been appearing more frequently."

Hayakawa Aki turned around silently, and after noticing that the hem of Xiangzi's skirt was stained with blood, he looked away silently: "It shouldn't be like this in the future, sorry."

He really didn't have anything good to say about the fox demon, but the guy in front of him... Hayakawa Aki had to admit that he took advantage of her.

Although she was a demon, she had never hurt anyone or done anything bad. Apart from always looking for me to eat, she was no different from an ordinary girl.

On the contrary, after signing the contract with her, all the bloody costs that he should have borne in the future were passed on to her, and he only paid some not-so-generous money... As a public security officer, these should have been his responsibilities.

Sometimes, Hayakawa Aki actually doesn't even want to see Xiangzi's face, because it makes him feel...shame and guilt.

[Energy +1800 Yanxi transfer ① group: 837783853

Well, soft-hearted people are really easy to exploit. It was not in vain that I tried to win your favor over the past year.

Looking at the prompt that popped up in the system, Xiangzi nodded with satisfaction, then lowered the hem of her skirt to cover the wound.

In this year, Xiangzi has successfully raised Hayakawa Aki to level 9, and Denji has already successfully raised it to the maximum. Although she doesn't know the specific level because it has reached the upper limit, it should be not low.

After all, these two people are similar in nature. They may be cynical or cold and heartless on the outside because they have lost their family members, but they are very eager for love in their hearts. Therefore, when a person approaches them like a family member, it is very easy to get a high impression of them as time goes by and they get along with each other day and night.

In order not to waste time, Xiangzi would harass Hayakawa Aki every now and then after Dianci went out to fight monsters and go to work. He arranged different times to improve his favorability and gain energy. He was a master of time management, which is why he finally achieved such gratifying results.

"After all, it's necessary for combat, I can understand that, it doesn't matter. But when you signed the contract with the fox demon, did you really pay attention to the details?"

Xiangzi crossed his arms, looked at the puzzled Hayakawa Aki and shook his head and sighed, "Normally, when signing a contract with it, it should be stated that the price to be paid each time is only a certain part of the skin, but it's not behaving like that now."

"I guess that stinky fox has probably guessed that you have some way to transfer the price, and when you signed the contract with it, I'm afraid you only said that you would take a part of the body, but didn't specify which part it was."

"Recently, it ate my internal organs instead of my skin. I was having dinner with the kid at home when he suddenly vomited blood and was half dead. It scared him to death."

"Demons love to deceive people, and foxes are even more so. Pay attention to the details when signing contracts next time."

He skillfully pulled out a bandage from his small bag and wrapped it around his wound a few times, thinking, "I was planning to ask you for a meal, but if you're busy today, forget it. Just give me the cash and I'll eat by myself~"

"..."

Looking at Xiangzi who was asking him for money with confidence, Hayakawa Aki silently took out his wallet, counted out two Fukuzawa Yukichi banknotes and handed them to her.

Although the monthly salary was stipulated in the contract with Shoko, Hayakawa Aki did not think that the 25 yen would allow Shoko and her younger brother to live a good life, so he did not think there was anything wrong with Shoko's behavior of eating for free.

Moreover, because of his son's wish, he can use the abilities of the fox demon and the curse demon without any cost restrictions. Therefore, his performance is much better than that of his colleagues, and his bonuses also increase. This little money is really nothing to him.

Not to mention that Xiangzi occasionally came to eat, even if he took Xiangzi and her brother home to raise them, it would not be a problem at all, but it was a pity that Xiangzi herself did not seem to be willing to do so. The increase in the monthly salary in the contract that Xiangzi had proposed to her was also rejected. Although she was more like a human, she still had the devil's persistence in insisting on the contract.

Once a contract is signed, it must be executed 100%, no matter what is written in the contract.

In addition to shameless fox demons, there are also demons who will complete the contract even if it means risking their own lives. Xiangzi seems to be one of them.

"Ah, I found it, I found it, Qiu Jun's girlfriend who he has been dating for a long time~"

A frivolous voice sounded, and a one-eyed woman in a black suit and white shirt appeared behind Hayakawa Aki without her knowing, and she carelessly put her arms around his neck: "I've been following you for so long and finally found you. Won't you introduce me to her?"

Volume 76: The chainsaw roars in my dream: Chapter Chapter Arrest her

"Senior Ji Ye?!"

The sudden appearance of his colleague scared Hayakawa Aki. He never expected that his partner would appear at this time.

After all, Xiangzi is a demon. What if Senior Jiye finds out her identity and decides to punish her on the spot? I can't fight with Senior Jiye. Should I take this guy away first? I also have to consider avoiding the surveillance intelligence network of the public security...

While Hayakawa Aki was still standing there thinking about his escape route, Xiangzi had already happily held Jiye's hand: "Hello, I'm his employee, just call me Xiangzi~"

"Hello, hello...but what about a worker?" Seeing Xiangzi's enthusiastically extended hand, Jiye subconsciously held it and shook her hand, while asking the doubts in his heart at the same time.

"Well, I just helped him deal with some of his physical discomforts."

You can't just say you want to sign a contract with him to transfer the injury...but wounds are indeed an inconvenience, right?

"It's inconvenient to handle?!" Unlike Xiangzi's nonchalant response, Ji Ye was shocked when he heard it. He looked at Xiangzi in disbelief, then turned back to look at Hayakawa Aki.

"Qiu Jun, you, you, you, you, this is against the law! How old are you?!"

"Me? I'm 22, what's wrong?" Hayakawa Aki was suddenly called and answered subconsciously, "I joined the public security bureau on the day I turned 20, and it's been exactly two years now."

"This is a big problem! You are an adult, right? But this child she-she she she doesn't look over 18 years old! You are a copper-refining lolita complex!"

"what are you talking about?!"

The flustered Himeno and the bewildered Hayakawa Aki had a big fight. Xiangzi saw that Himeno had misunderstood something, but she had no explanation at all - after all, what did all this have to do with her, an innocent wish demon?

Even if Ji Ye really misunderstood and decided to take drastic measures, it would be good for her.

Xiangzi was already considering whether to pretend to accidentally reveal some information about himself to Jiye about being a demon. It would be best to make the other party feel that he had bad intentions and was a bad demon who approached Hayakawa Aki with some malicious intent.

After all, a year has passed, and the story will really begin in another year. It is obviously impossible for Denji, who is now living a happy life under Xiangzi's care, to become as miserable as he was at the beginning of the original work.

So Xiangzi is thinking that it's time for him to temporarily withdraw.

At least it’s time for him to step away from Denji’s side and accept the beatings of life again, and eventually evolve all the way into Chainsaw Man.

My existence now provides Dianci with a safe haven, a home, and an anchor.

This might be fine for Denji, but not for Chainsaw Man.

The Chainsaw Man cannot have a home, let alone weaknesses. All he has to do is struggle and fight on in despair. This is the story that readers want to see...

That's right, compared to the readers' wishes, Denji's ideals are insignificant...

More importantly, if Denji doesn't merge with Pochita, he won't be able to talk to him from the bottom of his heart... then his plan will be ruined.

Qiu and Ji Ye were making a fuss, but Xiangzi just looked at his palm silently.

At that time, what backstab posture will attract more hatred?

-

"Alas, finally we're leaving..."

Watching Xiangzi disappear into the street, Hayakawa Aki sighed tiredly.

Originally, he thought that Ji Ye-senpai was noisy enough by herself, but he didn't expect that Xiangzi would join her in making noise. Hayakawa Aki was simply restless. The gazes from the surroundings made him feel like a teacher in charge of an entire kindergarten, being condemned by passers-by because of the noise of the children.

"Senior Ji Ye, you are an adult after all, so don't act like a child like her..."

In order to relieve stress, Hayakawa Aki silently took out a piece of gum from his arms and started chewing it.

In fact, he had already developed the habit of smoking, but every time he lit a cigarette next to Xiangzi, Xiangzi would immediately cough as if she wanted to cough out her lungs when she smelled the cigarette. While coughing, she would look at him with tears in her eyes and tell Hayakawa Akira to smoke as much as she wanted, because her lungs would heal after coughing...

Under this shameless attack on his conscience, Hayakawa Aki, who was far from being in a moral vacuum, had no choice but to quit smoking.

Seeing Hayakawa Aki quit smoking, although Ji Ye said that she was sorry to lose a smoking buddy, she was actually very happy in her heart. But today, she couldn't be happy at all.

"Qiu Jun, are you on good terms with that kid?"

"...Not really." Hayakawa Aki turned her head away, not responding to Ji Ye's serious gaze. "I met her last year. She usually informs me of some... news about the devil. She can be considered an informant."

"I see. No wonder you, Qiu Jun, are so much more efficient in exterminating demons than other colleagues. It turns out you have your own exclusive intelligence network. Hahaha..."

Ji Ye smiled as if he didn't care, but there was some anxiety in his actions that was difficult to conceal.

Finally, she took out a cigarette from her bosom, lit it, and took a deep breath, trying to use the nicotine to calm her uneasy emotions.

Even if she didn't want to say it, this was her mission now, and it was also for Qiu's sake.

"That child, is he a demon?"

"——" Hayakawa Aki's heart suddenly tightened, but he still tried to stay calm and prepared to defend Xiangzi. But the information that Ji Ye said next completely froze him on the spot, and he didn't know how to refute it.

"She is a wish demon. She made a deal with you to help you pay the price for using other demonic abilities, right?"

"..."

There is no doubt that since Ji Ye can tell the information about Xiangzi in such detail, it proves that the Anti-Magic Specialty Class behind her has already mastered more detailed information and is ready. Therefore, even if she continues to resist and refuses to admit it, it is meaningless.
