Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 348

They are eroding those souls that have already been purified, causing those souls to remember their true nature as vengeful spirits.

Soon, the originally calm and kind voice in Ejima Izai's mind began to be filled with viciousness and malevolence.

The whispers of the soul turned into roars and howls, and murderous intent grew in the heart.

He himself began to feel agitated, and a fierce anger arose for no reason, making him want to roar and destroy something.

"Oops……"

Despite the excruciating pain, Ejima Izai gripped the hilt of the sword at his chest with both hands and slowly pulled the long sword out inch by inch.

During this process, the potent poison on the blade continued to rage, even intertwining with Ejima Izai's illusory spirit, as if they had grown together.

Therefore, the process of pulling out the long sword was like having flesh and bones ripped directly from the body. The intense pain instantly overwhelmed Ejima Izai's mind, causing him to let out a long howl.

"Hoh, ahhhhhh—!"

Ejima Izai, who was shouting to the sky in the street, quickly attracted a lot of attention. Because he was blocking traffic in the middle of the street, several cars were already blocked by him.

The drivers got out of their cars to check the situation. Some of the hot-tempered ones wanted to argue with him, but when they saw the broken long knife that had pierced through his chest, they were startled and quickly hid back in their cars.

Passersby on both sides of the street, who were holding umbrellas, stopped and watched as Ejima Izai slowly pulled the long sword out of his chest through the rain.

"Is this a movie shoot...?"

"Hey, isn't this guy that Kamen Rider from Urayasu City? I remember seeing him before!"

"That knife... is it real or a prop? It's so realistic!"

"There's no blood on him, so of course it's fake!"

"Hello, is this the police? Someone is committing suicide in the street..."

"When are we going to leave this guy blocking the road?! If he's filming, where's the camera?"

The whispers of the people pierced through the rain and reached Ejima Isamu's ears, making him even more frustrated and irritable.

He grabbed the hilt of the sword with his backhand, struggled to get up, and with all his might, pulled the long sword outward!

"Shut up, everyone!"

As he roared, the long sword left his body, and at that instant, bursts of dark blue light erupted from the gaps in his chest and back. These light arcs echoed in the air, silently lashing out at the surroundings like long whips.

“Ahh…!”

The crowd gasped in surprise, some scattered and fled, while others, more daring, continued to hold up their phones and film.

Ejima Izai didn't care about those people filming him, or rather, he didn't have time to care. He took a deep breath, and the resentment and poison in his body were quickly wiped away as the blade left.

"Ha, ha..." He used his long sword to support himself on the ground, took a few breaths, and realized that he had been watched the whole time. After clicking his tongue, he held the long sword upside down and rushed into the alley by the roadside.

Using the rain as cover, he quickly shook off some overly curious passersby. After wandering around for a while, he took out his phone from his pocket.

Fortunately, after returning from Urayasu, he realized the importance of waterproofing his phone and specifically replaced it with a waterproof one.

He quickly contacted the fake Kiryu.

………………

Half an hour later, the rain stopped.

A boy in a school uniform is riding a bicycle on the road.

He was carrying a fishing rod bag, and a large, stuffed gym bag was strapped to the back seat. In the basket in front of the car, there was even a bowling bag.

It's unclear what he's trying to do.

Every now and then, passersby would hear what sounded like coming from the bowling bag, as if someone was talking.

And when

Passersby would glance at the boy, who would then awkwardly turn his head away, speed up his bike, and quickly leave.

"Ejima-sensei..." After brushing past another passerby, the fake Kiryu said in a somewhat embarrassed low voice, "Could you please stop making a sound?"

"You think I want to? Come on, help me dial another number." A voice came from the bowling bag.

Fake Kiryu reluctantly pulled open the bowling bag a little, revealing Ejima Iya's skull inside, which was wearing a helmet.

It's just like... killing someone and preparing to dispose of the body.

The fake Kiryu reached into his bag and picked up the phone next to his head.

"Yes, yes, help me dial that guy named Ryuuichi Kamiya," Ejima Izai instructed.

Following instructions, the fake Kiryu dialed the number, then put the phone back, zipped up the bowling bag again, and continued riding his bike towards the school.

Right now, he only has one thought in his mind.

Just avoid being stopped and questioned by the police on the street...

Oh right, there's one more thing.

How am I going to explain to the security guard that I jumped out of the gate?

Listening to the voices coming from the bowling bag, Kiryu suddenly felt as if his peaceful school life had vanished again.

Chapter 280, trying to ride the wave of popularity, huh?

After hanging up the phone call from Ejima Izai, Toudou was somewhat dazed.

What's going on here?

A blind swordsman wearing a crown sought out Ejima Izai.

I've only been in Nikko City for a few days! How come so many things have happened in Tokyo already?

“Sigh…” Dou Tang sighed deeply.

The others in the room looked up when they heard him sigh.

Dou Tang looked at his companions and briefly explained what had just happened.

Old Wolf was the first to react, and he immediately said, "Holy crap, the third rider has changed!"

Kotaro punched him.

Dou Tang continued, "So Tokyo is indeed getting more and more chaotic. Scenes of fighting in broad daylight are even appearing, and the other side has no intention of setting up a resentment barrier to obscure the view."

"They don't care about being exposed, nor do they care about ordinary people." Dou Tang slammed his hand on the table: "Just as we want to expose Tamamo-no-Mae, these people also want to completely expose the existence of evil spirits."

"Oh, trying to steal business and generate buzz?" Lu Zizhen raised an eyebrow.

“No, no.” Dou Tang shook his head: “Their goal is to hunt, to test those evil spirits in Tokyo, or even kill them. I suspect that there may be an entire organization behind them trying to squeeze into the Tokyo circle.”

He frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something, and then picked up his phone again, hesitating for a moment.

“I suspect… what they want is to take advantage of the window of opportunity after the association splits, to carve out a new territory between the evil spirits and exorcists who have reached a balance.”

“Challenge the old order and kill the evil spirits while the exorcists are out in action.” Dou Tang’s expression was solemn: “Although they haven’t made a move against the exorcists yet, it’s only a matter of time.”

“That sounds very ambitious,” Lu Zizhen said.

"He's certainly very ambitious..." Dou Tang thought to himself.

Moreover, if they are truly ambitious enough, then the challenge they face will not be limited to just Ejima Iya.

There are also local Tokyo yokai (supernatural beings).

For example... Nurarihyon.

He suddenly raised his head, looked at Lu Zizhen, and said, "Does the association have spies around the Nurarihyon residence? I need their information!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zizhen was taken aback for a moment, then she also thought of what Dou Tang was considering, and quickly picked up her phone to make the call.

While waiting for intelligence, Dou Tang pondered for a while and felt that the situation was quite troublesome.

Their initial idea was to expose Tamamo-no-Mae, force her to come out, and then have Dou Tang defeat her in public, thus completely revealing the evil spirit to the world and telling ordinary people that although the evil spirit is real, it is also fragile.

However, this also prevented Dou Tang from leaving Nikko City, because he was the only one here who was confident of defeating Tamamo-no-Mae, and the only one who could stop Tamamo-no-Mae from going on a killing spree.

Therefore, Tokyo was taken advantage of by those evil spirits.

The inability to return to Tokyo to resolve these incidents was causing Tou-tang some frustration.

“Brother.” Huaiyin reached out and gently placed her hand on Doutang’s hand: “Don’t worry, since Teacher Jiangdao is here, nothing will happen.”

Old Wolf suggested, "How about we go back to Tokyo?"

Dou Tang raised his head, waiting for him to continue.

Old Wolf spread his hands and continued, "Look, at our level, if you were to fight Tamamo-no-Mae, we probably wouldn't be able to help much. As for evacuating the masses, the local exorcists of Nikko City should be able to handle that, right?"

"So, since Ejima Iya has already been exposed as a Kamen Rider once, we might as well go back too."

"If this is a war of public opinion, then Kamen Rider is still considered a righteous figure, right?" Old Wolf pointed to himself, quite proudly: "I'll go back with Kotaro, and then beat up the evil spirits to show my face. That way, the public's panic will at least be reduced, right?"

Should we break up...?

That's true. After all, even in the dream, the older brother didn't want them to get involved, fearing they might get hurt by Tamamo-no-Mae here.

Going back to Tokyo, at least we'll have Ejima Iya as a backup, and the three of us working together will be safer.

Huaiyin suddenly felt a little

She understood, but then something came to mind.

Dou Tang would never allow her to continue risking her life here!

She quickly looked up at Dou Tang, but it was too late. Dou Tang nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course!"

"And by the way, take Huaiyin back with you!"

"I don't want to!" Huaiyin objected, having already prepared her reasons: "I can track Tamamo-no-Mae's location; I'll be of great use here!"

Upon hearing this, Dou Tang's expression became complicated. He stared at Huai Yin for a moment and said, "...No."

“If they’re leaving, I certainly can’t leave you here and put yourself in danger.”

Huaiyin wanted to say something, but Doutang waved his hand and said, "It's settled then."

"Old Wolf and Kotaro went to Tokyo and took Huaiyin back with them. I stayed in Nikko City with Lu Zizhen to continue investigating Tamamo-no-Mae."

Huaiyin wanted to say something more, but Doutang suddenly turned his head and stared at her intently, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.

Huaiyin took a deep breath, wanting to argue her point, but was frozen in place by that gaze.

She realized that once Dou Tang made up his mind, her one-sided resistance would be completely ineffective.

"...I understand." Finally, she turned her head away, pouting and reluctantly said.

………………

Once the decision was made, the group acted without hesitation.

Soon, Old Wolf and Kotaro packed their luggage and prepared to leave Nikko City with Huaiyin.

After returning to Tokyo, Lao Lang and Kotaro will reunite with Ejima Iya, while Huaiyin will live in a safe house provided by the association under the protection of Kuroki Keizaki for a period of time until the danger in Tokyo and Nikko City is over.

This arrangement greatly displeased Huaiyin. She had already proven herself a long time ago, and Doutang would indeed tolerate her using her exorcism methods to handle certain matters.

But this time, facing an unknown enemy and the powerful Tamamo-no-Mae, Tou-Tang still chose a method that completely disregarded Huai-Yin's wishes.

This made Huaiyin very unhappy.

But she still chose to obey, and obediently followed Kotaro and the old wolf into the car, which headed towards Tokyo.

Lu Zizhen and Dou Tang stood at the hotel entrance, watching the three of them leave.

Watching the car drive away, Lu Zizhen sighed and said, "You really are heartless."

"Is that what you call heartless?" Dou Tang retorted.

"Well... not really, it's more like a father worrying about his little cabbage." Lu Zizhen shook her phone in her hand: "By the way, the intelligence came in. The good news is that nothing happened on the Nurarihyon side."

"If you put it that way, I'm afraid there's some bad news," Dou Tang said, frowning.

"There is indeed some bad news." Lu Zizhen was also a little worried: "The video of the Tokyo ghost murder case has already been uploaded online."

Chapter 281 The Delinquents

Upon hearing Lu Zizhen's words, Dou Tang sighed and said, "Tell me more details."

Lu Zizhen looked at her phone and said, "The evil spirits are fighting fiercely in Tokyo. Some of them even recorded the fight and posted it on the internet."

"Although some people have started deleting them, the effect is minimal. They can't keep up with the deletions. After all, Japan's influence on these transnational online platforms is still relatively small."

“Now, there are very formal posts on Twitter discussing whether evil spirits exist or not, and the most frequently cited evidence is the Fall Guys incident.”
