Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

What she didn't expect was that Ye Xing's reply would come immediately from outside the door.

"I'm here, what's up?"

Chapter 031: Marking Points

Yotsuya Miko was stunned for a moment, then sighed with her hand on her forehead.

"...You really were peeking?"

"Otherwise? A promise made is a debt unpaid, I have to watch."

Hearing this, Yotsuya Miko didn't show any displeasure, but shook her head with a helpless smile.

Before entering the bathroom, she had already confirmed it.

The glass door connecting the bathroom and the living room was designed to be two-way privacy-proof.

After entering the bathroom, the glass of the shower room was also privacy-proof, and there was a curtain outside.

Wanting to peek?

Unless Ye Xing had X-ray vision.

Wait a minute, does he really have it?

But after thinking about it, Yotsuya Miko smiled self-deprecatingly.

If Ye Xing really had X-ray vision, would he need to peek while she was taking a shower?

Wouldn't he be able to peek whenever he wanted?

Just worrying unnecessarily.

"Thank you."

"Thank you for what? I don't understand."

"Forget it if you don't understand."

Since Yotsuya Miko couldn't figure out Ye Xing's reason for peeking at her shower, there was only one explanation.

The other party was standing outside the bathroom door, not to peek.

Perhaps he was worried about evil spirits following her and launching a surprise attack while she was showering.

Or maybe, he was just worried that she would feel scared while showering.

Regardless of the reason, a thank you should always be said.

Through this incident, Yotsuya Miko felt that she understood Ye Xing a little more.

This guy...

Seems to have a bit of a tsundere attribute?

Of course, she couldn't say this out loud, otherwise she didn't know what strange things Ye Xing would say.

While Yotsuya Miko was washing her hair, Ye Xing, sitting outside the door with his back against the bathroom glass door, was marking a map.

"Hmm... S-class area, almost."

In his hand was a map of Kyoto City, and he had marked the area where the unfinished building was located with the letter S.

...

After finishing her shower, Yotsuya Miko muttered softly while wiping her wet hair with a towel.

"This set of clothes is a bit too big."

She was wearing Ye Xing's short sleeves on her upper body and shorts on her lower body, with her two white and tender little feet stepping on the floor, paired with cute light pink nail polish, making people want to play with them.

The problem was that Yotsuya Miko's outfit did look very comical.

Ye Xing's short sleeves on her could almost be worn as a dress.

The two legs of the shorts extended downwards, past her knees.

Among girls of her age, Yotsuya Miko was already considered to have a very tall figure.

But wearing the clothes of Ye Xing, who was over 1.8 meters tall, still had a sense of incongruity like a small horse pulling a big cart.

That's not right.

A small horse should pull a big cart.

Seeing Ye Xing recording something in his notebook, Yotsuya Miko sat down obediently on the sofa opposite him and asked curiously.

"Um... I have a few questions I want to ask you."

Ye Xing looked up at her, saw Yotsuya Miko's appearance of being completely wrapped in his clothes, almost couldn't hold back, coughed lightly twice, and adjusted his emotions.

"Yeah, ask away."

As soon as these words came out, Yotsuya Miko instantly threw out several doubts in her heart like a machine gun.

"How can I awaken that ability of yours that can fight against evil spirits?"

"What should be done with the doors inside that building?"

"Why didn't you bring that knife from my house today? If you had brought it, would you have been able to defeat that evil spirit?"

"Also, you said that the evil spirit inside the building looked like a turtle or something, I didn't hear clearly, a turtle what?"

...

Ye Xing was not surprised by the first three questions.

But hearing Yotsuya Miko's last question, he frowned slightly and carefully looked at her.

"You...don't know what that thing looks like?"

Yotsuya Miko's eyes showed a clear and innocent purity, and she tilted her head in confusion.

"Looks like what?"

"It's hard to describe, you'll understand when you grow up."

Ye Xing didn't delve into this topic, and didn't give Yotsuya Miko a chance to continue asking, and then continued to speak.

"Answer your first three questions."

"First, according to my deduction, you should be able to awaken the same ability as me, as for the specific method...I have a rough guess, I'll tell you the answer after discussing it with Rion Futaba on Monday."

Yotsuya Miko hesitated, and finally could only nod helplessly.

Ye Xing had said it very clearly before.

She and the other party were likely the two most powerful spirit ability users in the history of Sakura Province.

What they faced were also unprecedented and unique bizarre events.

It was like feeling for stones to cross a river, no one knew the true nature, and the various dangers that they would face in the future.

Even Ye Xing couldn't give her all the answers she wanted.

"Second question."

Speaking of this, Ye Xing handed the map in his hand to Yotsuya Miko.

"Today, the place we went to belongs to an S-class location, plus what I've explored these past two days, there are a total of three A-class and one S-class 'doors' that have been discovered in Kyoto City and haven't been resolved."

"My evaluation criteria are relatively rough."

"S-class is something that I can possibly solve with all my strength, but in the process, there is a risk of death."

"A-class is something that might injure me in the process of solving it."

Yotsuya Miko looked down at the marks on the map and asked curiously.

"Then why aren't there B-class or C-class or something?"

She looked up and saw Ye Xing looking at her with an idiot-like gaze.

"Are you stupid, those B-class and C-class, I can solve them immediately at this stage, I'll destroy them as soon as I find them, why mark them?"

Yotsuya Miko felt very embarrassed, thinking that was also true.

Ye Xing's personality was unpredictable to her, but there was one thing she could confirm.

This guy really hated evil spirits and would never be soft-hearted.

"As for the third question, that long knife is not for me to use, it's prepared for you."

"Prepared for me?"

"Of course."

Ye Xing spread his hands and smiled.

"You saw my combat power with your own eyes today, although that long knife is genuine, it's not very realistic to say that it can bring me much help, after all, it's just something from Old Deng's place."

Yotsuya Miko nodded slightly, and then asked.

"Speaking of which, I'm a little curious, why did that Mr. Oda give us such a valuable long knife for free back then?"

"Isn't that simple?"

Ye Xing also wanted to take this opportunity to explain the current situation to Yotsuya Miko, so he began to explain.

"As an exorcist, he definitely doesn't just sell small items like amulets, the main source of income is actually undertaking various exorcism commissions."

"But now, because of the appearance of the 'doors', many commissions are beyond his ability to solve."

"If he can't solve the client's requirements for a long time, then others will start to doubt whether he, Oda Noto, is a genuine spirit ability user, and his business will be affected."

"The solution is that he transfers these commissions to me."

"I get the information I want, the information about the movements of evil spirits in Kyoto City, as well as the client's generous reward, and he gets the reputation of completing the commission."

"Each gets what they need, just a transaction."

Chapter 032: Abilities Brought About by Cognition

Establishing clubs within Sobu High School to collect information among students.

And Oda Noto's side is another important source of information.

Since the price of exorcism is very expensive, the commissions that can find him must be people whose real lives have been seriously affected and want to spend money to avoid disaster.

Like the unfinished building that Ye Xing took Yotsuya Miko to just now, it was one of the commissions that the construction party gave to Oda Noto as a last resort.

Near these commission locations, either you can find powerful evil spirits that are enough to affect people's normal lives.

For Ye Xing, who has the ability to devour, these evil spirits are equivalent to the rare candies in Pokémon, just eat them to level up.

Or, there are "doors" in the area of the commission location.

The Paranormal Power Subatomic Research Society, and the commissions transferred from Oda Noto's side.

With these two sources of information, Ye Xing doesn't need to spend too much effort to investigate, and he can get almost all the information about suspected paranormal events in Kyoto City.

"I see."

Yotsuya Miko nodded as if she had suddenly understood.

She thought that Ye Xing went to find that old Mr. Oda just to extort him.

So there was such a plan?

"You just said that the commissions have rewards? How are they split, a 50-50 split?"

"50-50?"

Ye Xing smiled and waved his hand.

"100-0 split, I get 10, he gets 0."

"Zero! ?"

Hearing this number, Yotsuya Miko was stunned.

That Mr. Oda doesn't want a penny and gives all the rewards to Ye Xing?

Isn't that too...?
