Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

Thinking of the bloody scene on the ground, Soichiro Yagami felt heavy in his heart. He took out a spare magazine from his waist, replaced the magazine for his gun, and then continued to walk slowly towards the front of the carriage.

“Everyone, calm down!”

A train is divided into many carriages.

Soichiro Yagami was now just grateful that the train malfunctioned during a time that was not the rush hour for commuting to and from work.

Otherwise, there would be more than just hundreds of passengers trapped inside.

“I am Soichiro Yagami, the Director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department. Please line up and follow me in an orderly evacuation!”

With the help of the staff, Soichiro Yagami led the passengers on the train, slowly heading towards the front from the rear of the carriage.

Logically speaking, it was nearly five kilometers from this direction to the next station, far less than returning directly from the rear of the carriage.

But…

Wasn't actively approaching that slender ghostly figure just courting death?

Saki Kawasaki, Miumi Kitagawa, and Kyoka Kawasaki were also in the passenger queue, slowly moving forward under the guidance of Soichiro Yagami and the staff.

Just then.

“Boom!!!”

The entire train suddenly shook violently.

“Kyoka!”

Saki Kawasaki grabbed the handrail, and with her other hand, she protected Kyoka Kawasaki in her arms.

“I'm fine, Sister.”

Saki Kawasaki breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Miumi Kitagawa sitting on a seat to the side, clutching her ankle, her face full of pain.

“What's wrong, Miumi? Did you bump into something?”

“No… It's nothing.”

Miumi Kitagawa forced a smile, waving her hand while enduring the pain.

“I just accidentally twisted my ankle.”

“Can you still walk?”

“Yeah, no problem.”

Because Miumi Kitagawa twisted her foot and had difficulty walking, the three, who were originally in the middle of the queue, stood up only after the other passengers had passed.

The staff led the way at the front of the queue, while Soichiro Yagami, holding a gun, stayed at the very back.

He kept a vigilant eye on the rear of the train. When the train shook just now, he almost made the mistake that only rookie police officers would make—a misfire due to tension.

Soichiro Yagami could feel that his palms were already sweating.

It wasn't that he was timid.

But when facing an existence that could not be measured by common sense, any normal person would inevitably have such a reaction.

Just as the passengers on the train were about to evacuate, everyone suddenly heard a sharp roar.

“You… can all see me!”

Along with this sharp, inhuman, ear-piercing roar, Soichiro Yagami saw that slender ghostly figure suddenly appear at the end of his vision.

At this moment, he finally realized.

It wasn't that he couldn't see the other party's face clearly.

But that the other party simply had no face.

Its entire body was composed only of pure, black mist.

Soichiro Yagami didn't hesitate at all and directly pulled the trigger of his gun.

“Bang!”

Faced with the bullet, the slender ghostly figure only flickered and dodged it.

Immediately afterwards, it once again let out that ear-piercing, sharp roar, pouncing towards Miumi Kitagawa, Saki Kawasaki, Kyoka Kawasaki, and Soichiro Yagami, who was blocking in front of them.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Soichiro Yagami didn't hesitate and once again chose to empty the magazine.

But the result was still the same.

The bullets from the gun had no effect on the slender ghostly figure, not even the slightest hindrance.

Watching the ghostly figure, which was already only a few meters away, both Miumi Kitagawa and Saki Kawasaki's bodies had stiffened.

Their minds were blank, completely unable to react.

Just then, a petite figure wearing white clothes directly crashed through the top of the train and landed in front of the slender ghostly figure.

“Bone Woman.”

“Yes.”

As these two words were spoken, a woman wearing a kimono instantly appeared.

From her wide sleeves, a bone spur extended out, directly piercing through the head of the slender ghostly figure at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye.

“Hmm? This is too weak…”

Only then did Soichiro Yagami see clearly the clothing worn by this mysterious person.

A coat, long boots, a mask, pure white long hair.

Although the figure seemed very petite, like “Mask,” it was impossible to determine whether it was male or female from the appearance.

Only the color of the clothing was different from “Mask.”

The clothing worn by this mysterious person presented an overall pale white, a bleak color similar to bone.

And the other party's mask seemed to be made of bone, making it impossible to see their face.

“Are you hurt?”

The mysterious person turned around, their voice indistinguishable as male or female, but those eyes made Saki Kawasaki and Miumi Kitagawa feel a little inexplicably familiar.

Just as Soichiro Yagami was about to answer, his expression suddenly changed.

“Be careful behind you!”

The moment his voice fell, several identical slender ghostly figures, exactly the same in appearance, appeared from the ground that had not been illuminated by light, tearing towards the mysterious person in front of them.

“How boring.”

As this slightly lazy and bewitching female voice sounded, a furry, giant animal paw suddenly appeared, directly crushing several slender ghostly figures into powder.

After this paw retracted, Soichiro Yagami and the others, as well as Rio Futaba, could see the true face of the person who had taken action.

Wearing a kimono and dressed like an ancient Sakura Province woman, Tamamo-no-Mae slowly walked to Rio Futaba's side, smiling as she spoke.

“Where is he? Didn't he come with you?”

Rio Futaba was not surprised that Tamamo-no-Mae could recognize herself in this disguise.

After all, the other party was a powerful ghost. If they couldn't even do this, it would be truly embarrassing.

“He is helping innocent people evacuate.”

“Ah?”

Hearing this, Tamamo-no-Mae seemed a little surprised.

“He would actually evacuate innocent people? That doesn't seem like his style.”

“He is indeed evacuating.”

Rio Futaba said calmly.

“However, it is in his own unique way.”

… …

On the other side, standing outside the train and already dressed in the “Mask” attire, Yozora, holding a black pistol in his hand, looked at the hundreds of passengers in front of him, as well as the train staff. On the pure black mask, a white smiling face pattern appeared.

“I will count to ten.”

“After I finish counting, I will start hunting you down.”

“Only those who can successfully reach the station before I catch up will survive.”

“Now, the countdown begins.”

“10, 9, 8, 7…”

Seeing that the passengers on the train were still standing there in a daze, Yozora simply made the easiest and most effective move.

He pulled back the bolt, directly pulled the trigger, and fired a shot into the sky.

“Bang!”

Along with the deafening gunshot, the screams of the fleeing passengers followed.

They didn't dare not run.

Because the countdown behind them was still continuing.

“6, 5, 4, 3…”

Watching these people disappear from his sight, Yozora dissipated the pistol formed by the power of the evil spirit, chuckling to himself.

“Solved.”

He didn't have the leisure to explain the existence of the Reverse Side and evil spirits to these people.

Nor did he have the energy to spare any thought to protect these powerless weaklings when the exorcism began.

As a cautious and professional exorcist, Yozora deeply knew one thing.

Many times, it is not the villains who kill the heroes.

But the naive and foolish masses.

From what he and Rio Futaba had seen along the way, as long as they ran forward for about one kilometer, they would almost be out of the range of influence of the “Door.”

Using the most efficient and convenient method to minimize collateral damage.

This is the professional way to do it.

Only…

“I didn't see Kyoka Kawasaki and the others…”

Yozora didn't stay in the underground passage for long and directly turned around and boarded the train.

When he walked to the first passenger carriage, he saw Saki Kawasaki supporting Miumi Kitagawa, Kyoka Kawasaki standing behind these two, as well as Soichiro Yagami, Rio Futaba, and Tamamo-no-Mae.

“You are…!?”

Seeing the mysterious person wearing a pure black mask, dressed in black clothes, and dressed exactly like the urban legend, appear before her eyes, Saki Kawasaki was so surprised that her mouth was wide open.

“Hmph.”

Kyoka Kawasaki's little face was full of smugness.

“How about it, Sister? I told you, the hero who saves everyone is real.”

Saki Kawasaki stared blankly at the “Mask” standing there, her whole person already dumbfounded.

So it turned out…

The other party was not an urban legend, but a real person?

“You've finally come.”

Tamamo-no-Mae simply waved her hand, and a sudden, inexplicable force pressed Soichiro Yagami, Miumi Kitagawa, and the Kawasaki sisters onto the train seats.

Immediately afterwards, she moved her lotus steps lightly, walked in front of Yozora, stared at the eyes under the other party's mask with a smile that was not a smile, and a smile curled up at the corner of her lips.

“This situation is very troublesome.”
