Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

Listening to her mother's calculating words, filled with utilitarianism, Yang Nai merely nodded, her eyes revealing a lack of interest.

"Yes, Mother is right."

Mrs. Yukinoshita didn't mind her attitude, and just parted her lips slightly, slowly opening her mouth to speak.

"By the way, regarding the matter of that bet, you should have received a report from the company, right?"

"Yes, I've heard about it."

Yang Nai pursed her lips, a hint of worry showing between her brows.

The so-called bet was a competition between fighters.

She had heard of such things before, but at that time, Yukinoshita Construction Company did not have the qualifications to participate in that circle.

But just this morning, after the airship promotions in various cities of Sakura Province, Mrs. Yukinoshita, as the president of the company, received a call from Kyoto Municipal Bank.

The content was about a bet.

The conditions were simple.

Each side would select a fighter to compete.

If the Yukinoshita family lost, they would donate the nearly completed office building to Kyoto City free of charge.

If they won, they would win a stake of 30 million in cash.

A cash flow of 30 million was not a small amount, even for a construction company of Yukinoshita's level.

What's more, this was an opportunity.

If the Yukinoshita family could win this bet, it would mean that from now on, they would officially enter the circle formed by the commercial giants of Sakura Province for hundreds of years.

This ticket to entry was what Mrs. Yukinoshita valued most.

"Do you have any suitable candidates?"

Hearing her mother's question, Yang Nai originally wanted to shake her head, but suddenly, a figure appeared in her mind.

Come to think of it, there really seemed to be a suitable candidate.

Last time in the unfinished building, Yang Nai witnessed the entire process of Ye Xing fighting the evil spirit.

Agile movements, amazing explosive power.

Resistance to blows and recovery ability.

And the ability to keep up with the evil spirit's movements that were invisible to the naked eye, a reaction speed beyond the limits of ordinary people.

And most importantly.

Enjoying the fun of fighting, but not being soft on the evil spirits at all, resolute execution.

All these factors combined to create a perfect exorcist.

But at the same time, it also met the conditions to become an excellent fighter.

Thinking of this, Yang Nai bit her lower lip and hesitated.

"Well... I can make a phone call and ask, but I can't guarantee any definite results for you."

"It doesn't matter, it's always good to try."

Mrs. Yukinoshita waved her hand, not paying too much attention.

As the saying goes.

Treat a dead horse as if it were alive.

Anyway, Mrs. Yukinoshita herself didn't know any powerful fighters. Even if she offered a high reward, facing a group with such deep foundations as Kyoto Municipal Bank, the chances of winning were probably less than one in a hundred.

If Yang Nai could find a suitable candidate who was well-known, that would naturally be the best.

After all, this was just one match.

The bet was tens of millions.

......

The next evening, at eight o'clock, in the large apartment where Futaba Rio lived.

"The snacks are back."

Futaba Rio, Yotsuya Miko, and Yuigahama Yui each carried a large bag filled with all kinds of snacks of various flavors.

"Here, this."

Futaba Rio took out a can of Coca-Cola from the plastic bag and handed it to Ye Xing.

"I remember you like to drink this, iced, right?"

"Thanks, thanks."

Ye Xing took the Coca-Cola, opened it, and took a sip, sighing from the bottom of his heart.

"Coke is still the best."

The reason why the Overload Club members gathered here today was very simple.

Tomorrow morning was the date set by Ye Xing to retrieve Onimaru Kunitsuna.

Executors: Futaba Rio, Yotsuya Miko, Ye Xing.

Logistical support: Yuigahama Yui.

"Speaking of..."

Futaba Rio looked at Yuigahama Yui not far away, taking out the snacks from the bag and placing them one by one on the table, with a sweet smile, and said in a calm tone.

"You really are a gentle person."

Ye Xing's gaze was on the TV, and he replied indifferently.

"What are you talking about, I don't understand."

"If you don't understand, then forget it."

Although Futaba Rio was not good at communicating with people, perhaps because she had been excluded before, she was very sensitive to the emotional changes of the people around her.

She could feel that although Yuigahama Yui always had a smile on her face, the feeling of loss was becoming more and more serious recently when she was with the Overload Club and others.

As someone who once felt that no one in this world needed her, that she couldn't change anything, and that she couldn't do anything, Futaba Rio empathized with Yuigahama Yui's thoughts.

Yuigahama Yui clearly had no place in the plan to retrieve Onimaru Kunitsuna, but when they gathered today, Ye Xing still called her.

Futaba Rio felt that this was very good, not leaving anyone behind no matter what they did.

Chapter 083: Operation Begins, Futaba Rio's Unconcealable Problem

Futaba Rio tore open a bag of potato chips, picked up a piece with her slender jade fingers, and asked while eating.

"So, which infiltration method should we choose? Should we infiltrate the museum through the existing 'Gate', or should we let Hachishaku create a temporary 'Gate' here, and then move from the Otherworld to appear directly in a place relatively close to the museum?"

Ye Xing picked up the cold Coca-Cola and took a big gulp, then slowly replied.

"The second one."

Hearing this, Futaba Rio raised her hand to push her glasses, thoughtfully.

"Well... this is indeed the safest way, and it won't leave any clues for the Metropolitan Police Department, but the prerequisite is that we can withdraw perfectly after taking Onimaru Kunitsuna."

While speaking, Futaba Rio took out a map and placed it on the table, smoothing it out with her hand, pointing to the three black circles marked on it.

"Currently, within Kyoto City, we only know of these three 'Gates' that still exist."

Then, her slender white index finger pointed to one of the black circles, marked with an A.

"This 'Gate' is closest to the Kyoto Municipal Museum, but according to Miko's 'Hundred Eyes' judgment, the danger level is at least B-level or above, and it is nearly two kilometers away from the museum."

Futaba Rio had never discussed the specific plan for retrieving Onimaru Kunitsuna with Yotsuya Miko and Yuigahama Yui.

It wasn't that she didn't trust the two of them.

It was just that the plan Ye Xing came up with was too outlandish, even for spirit ability users.

Two kilometers.

Normally, it would take just over twenty minutes to walk slowly.

However, after Onimaru Kunitsuna was taken away, the Kyoto Municipal Museum triggered the alarm, and the Metropolitan Police Department sent people to surround it...

Futaba Rio couldn't imagine the dangers that would be faced in this short two-kilometer distance.

It would not be an exaggeration to call it a hail of bullets.

"If you have already decided, I won't question it, but..."

Futaba Rio took off her glasses, raised her hand to rub her brow, looked at Ye Xing, and said in a heavy tone.

"I know you are very confident in your strength, but this is not exorcism after all, nor is it the amateur kidnappers you have faced before, but the Metropolitan Police Department troops armed with heavy weapons. The danger factor is really too high. Won't you consider it again?"

Ye Xing waved his hand and smiled.

"It doesn't matter, I have my own way."

Futaba Rio sighed helplessly, looked at Hachishaku-sama sitting on the side, occupying a large sofa, tall, and sipping a box of milk in small sips.

"Hachishaku, what do you think?"

"Eh? Are you asking me?"

Hachishaku-sama reluctantly put down the box of milk in her hand, looking innocent and ignorant.

"I actually... don't understand what you're talking about. Can I continue drinking?"

Futaba Rio discovered that after she awakened the ability of soul manifestation, even Hachishaku-sama without using the power of the "Gate", she could see the other party and communicate with them.

Just like Yotsuya Miko.

Futaba Rio speculated that this was because after she awakened the soul manifestation, she became a person wandering between two worlds.

In terms of quantum mechanics.

It was that she now had the conditions to "recognize" at any time.

Combining with the case of Sakurajima Mai's adolescence syndrome, Futaba Rio judged that although these two things did not belong to the same type of event, some of the principles were the same.

Are the people who can't see Sakurajima Mai really unable to see her?

Or are they actually able to see her, but they are unable to "recognize" the existence of Sakurajima Mai?

Just like the human brain, in order to maintain normal operation, it will subconsciously ignore the unimportant information in the field of vision.

Ordinary people can't see evil spirits because they themselves don't have the ability to fight against those strange things, so out of survival instinct, the body chooses "unobservable."

And after awakening the ability of soul manifestation, they have transformed from humans who are unilaterally hunted by those evil spirits into "hunters" who can fight against evil spirits, are equal, or even in a higher position in the food chain.

The change in oneself brings about a change in "cognition".

For the time being, Futaba Rio can only draw so many conclusions.

Perhaps after collecting more information, she will one day be able to analyze the truth about the existence of the Otherworld and those strange things.

It's not for any special reason.

Futaba Rio just doesn't like having unknown doubts, that's all.

She shook her head, took back the thoughts that were about to drift out of bounds, looked at Hachishaku-sama, and said with a serious face.

"You're sure you can create a 'Gate' that lasts for at least two hours, right?"
