Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 268

"We don't know much about the Fall Guys either, but we can confirm that they are not hostile to ordinary people."

“And your memories…” Dou Tang turned to look at Xue Qing.

Xueqing looked at Inspector Megure and explained, "Among exorcists, there are departments that specialize in handling the aftermath. These departments will erase their whereabouts and erase people's memories of evil spirits in order to prevent further panic. Inspector Megure must have encountered this situation. Hypnotizing officials related to the incident... is a last resort and is generally only used in large-scale incidents."

“Take the street incident on Halloween, for example,” Inspector Megure nodded and said.

“You’re right.” Xueqing nodded.

"I see... Phew." Inspector Megure suddenly leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh. "I feel somewhat relieved, actually. Although that part of my memory was erased, at least it wasn't done by bad guys..."

"You have a very broad mind," Xueqing commented.

"What can I do if it's not broad enough?" Inspector Megure chuckled self-deprecatingly. "I'm just an ordinary person, what can I change?"

He took a sip of coffee and said, "Alright, I know what happened... There's nothing more to ask. There's nothing I, an ordinary person, can do, except..."

"I wish you success."

After Dou Tang and Xue Qing left, Inspector Megure sat in his seat for a long time, then took a big gulp of coffee, looked at the ceiling and smiled wryly, "This is really funny. I thought it was Detective Conan, but it turned out to be Kamen Rider..."

………………

After leaving the coffee shop, Dou and Tang returned to the warehouse. They had gathered almost all the intelligence about the area around the hospital, and both the hospital and the warehouse were filled with candy beans.

These jelly beans will only be used one last time. They were used once before to cast nets on the street, and then once on Halloween. A jelly bean can only turn into a jelly bean man three times.

The fifteen-minute Fall Guys is Dou Tang's insurance policy for others. If he really doesn't have time to help others, then he'll have to rely on his Fall Guy clones.

"Two days have passed. Does that Onmyoji really not intend to take the initiative?"

In the warehouse, bored Kotaro asked.

Old Wolf also felt somewhat anxious, pacing back and forth in the warehouse, no longer composed.

“If we take the initiative, we’ll have to give up this warehouse that’s covered with countless spells,” Lu Zizhen said, eating snacks on the sofa.

Suddenly, Old Wolf used the back of the sofa to flip over and land on it, looking at Lu Zizhen beside him: "Hey, hey, hey, Miss, is your magic really that useful? It's like we'd definitely lose without your magic!"

Lu Zizhen scoffed: "Fine, then go ahead and see how much difference there is between having a spell and not having one for an exorcist!"

She held up a potato chip, pointed at the old wolf, and sneered, "Please, that's a lair he's been building for a year. I can't even imagine how many barriers and spells a renowned Onmyoji would set up for his lair!"

"If you're so capable, then you go! Go, go!"

Dou Tang then spoke up, "Staying here all the time isn't a good idea. Maybe taking the initiative would be better...?"

Lu Zizhen slapped herself on the head: "My darling, you really know how to sabotage me..."

"Think about it, are there basically no half-demons left in Pu'an City now?" Lu Zizhen spread her hands.

Everyone nodded.

"And haven't exorcists already come to clean up the mess? Those people who contacted Inspector Megure, right?"

"Guess what the exorcists in Tokyo will think if they go back and explain what happened that day?"

Old Wolf shook his head, like a bewildered husky: "Uh... you think Urayasu City is in big trouble?"

"Wrong!" Lu Zizhen popped a potato chip into her mouth and chewed, "They're not stupid! They can also see that these half-demons are ignoring everything else and choosing to run wild in crowded places!"

"This situation either means they are truly desperate and fighting to the death, or they have truly taken control of Urayasu City and are so arrogant that they intend to let the whole world know about their existence."

“No matter which one, listen carefully, no matter which one!” She held up a finger and looked around at everyone, “it all means that this matter can no longer be kept secret. Even if we can use hypnosis to cover it up, the released video will be seen by the whole world! Under external pressure, the Exorcist Association must regain control of Urayasu City as soon as possible in order to maintain its position, otherwise it will be overthrown!”

"As the former second-in-command of the Onmyoji Ling Ming, he must know what the Exorcist Association is going to do, so... right now, he's the one who's most anxious, not us!"

“We can just pack up and leave, but he can’t. If he doesn’t clear his name quickly and stabilize the situation in Urayasu City, he will either be exposed and beaten by the exorcists, or he will have to flee Urayasu City in a panic.”

"So..." Kotaro slowly raised his hand, "we have to keep waiting, because he will definitely come to us on his own initiative, and then we will be fighting on our home turf?"

Lu Zizhen snapped her fingers: "That's right!"

Chapter 126 Give me a pillow if you feel sleepy

While Dou Tang and his group were waiting in ambush, Tokyo, not far from Urayasu City, was already in chaos.

Half-demon appearing on the streets of Urayasu City, non-human Kamen Riders participating in battles, and countless Fall Guys staging a Night Parade of Hundreds of Beans... these events have caused a huge uproar in the underworld.

The public opinion that the Exorcist Association had been suppressing suddenly erupted, and although it was only among exorcists, it still had a great impact on the association.

The most important question is, why does the association ignore the half-demon in Urayasu City?

The Exorcist Association building was bustling with people, but inside, it was a noisy mess.

Ryuu Shinzen walked into the building, clicked his tongue at the sight before him, and sighed that the Exorcist Association had really embarrassed itself this time.

He soon spotted a tall, bald man standing by a pillar not far away, quietly chanting sutras with his hands clasped together, and walked over to him.

"Aida-kun, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Aida Gaku suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them. Upon seeing Shinzen Ryuyu, he smiled sheepishly and said, "Not at all, I just arrived too."

Ryuu Shinzen and Gaku Aida had become friends after their previous battle with Masakado Taira. It's unclear why Gaku Aida suddenly asked Ryuu Shinzen to meet up today.

"Speaking of which, what did you call me here for today?" Ryuichi Kamizumi asked curiously.

Aida Gaku clasped his hands together and bowed slightly: "This humble monk has a request, Shinsen-kun, could you please introduce me to... that Lord Honote Tengu?"

“Bone Tengu… Ah, you mean Izayoi?” Ryuuichi Shinzen smiled and readily agreed.

A moment later, the two got into Ryuichi Kamizen's car and arrived at Ichien Private Academy. Although it was school day, Ryuichi Kamizen had special privileges, so the two successfully entered the campus.

To avoid attracting the students' attention, the two chose a time when the students were in class and went to the old equipment room.

"Isamu, someone wants to see you," said Ryuuichi Shinzen as he entered the room.

"what?"

Suddenly, a skull-shaped teaching aid hanging on an iron rack in the old equipment room opened its mouth and spoke, blue flames igniting from its eye sockets.

Aida Gaku suddenly felt something was off.

"I never imagined that the powerful and influential Lord Honebami Tengu would disguise himself as a skeleton teaching aid at school..."

"Get this straight, before I became a bone tengu, I was first and foremost a teaching tool." Ejima Iya put himself down from the shelf, stretched his bones, and said.

“You bald guy… Ah, I remember now, your name is Aida Yue, right? You were quite close to Dou Tang back then.”

Aida Gaku nodded and smiled gently: "It's a wonder you still remember me."

Jiangdao Yizai crossed his arms and said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"The thing is, you..." Aida Gaku hesitated, then looked at Shinzen Ryuuyu beside him.

Ryuichi Kami laughed and said, "I understand, I understand. You guys chat first, I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back in a bit."

Aida Gaku bowed slightly, looking rather embarrassed.

After Ryuichi Shinzen left the old textbook room, Gaku Aida finally spoke up: "Mr. Ejima, do you know... Fall Guys?"

"I know, what's wrong?" Ejima Izai suddenly realized something.

However, I decided to wait and see first.

"So...you've encountered Fall Guys, haven't you?"

Jiangdao Yizai became serious.

“I want to help Fall Guys. You should have already seen the video of Urayasu City. Perhaps he needs reinforcements right now.” Aida Gaku’s expression was very serious: “You and I… I believe we are the same kind of people.”

The same kind of people... you mean the same kind of people who know Fall Guys' identity, right?

Ejima Izai stroked his chin and said, "Hmm... at least I need to know if what you're saying is true. How about this, I'll count to three, two, one, and we'll say Fall Guys' real name together, okay?"

Aida Gaku agreed.

Ejima Izai slowly said, "Three...two...one..."

"Kiryu Doutang."

Aida Gaku opened his mouth to speak, then suddenly froze.

"Ah... I thought you were a very straightforward guy when we first met, and I didn't expect you to be so." Ejima Izai laughed.

"But don't be nervous. I know that Kiryu-kun is Fall Guy, and it's thanks to him that I was able to gain the power to control the wind and rain."

Aida Gaku breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile, "That really scared me... Mr. Ejima."

“Life is more fun when there are jokes!” Ejima Iya shrugged, then said, “Tell me about what happened just now. You said he needed help?”

Aida Gaku nodded: "Yes, according to some information I have obtained, the half-demons in Urayasu City have been around for a long time, probably about a year. Their influence in Urayasu City must be very large. Although Kiryu-kun has the powerful ability to kill Taira no Masakado, he did not choose to summon so many Fall Guys when dealing with Taira no Masakado. There must be some changes in this."

"Right now, the exorcists throughout Tokyo are somewhat restless. They will not tolerate having a group of bloody monsters, half-human and half-demon, right next to where they live. But now the association has implemented a high-pressure policy, not allowing exorcists to participate in the Urayasu City incident, and has even claimed that the association already has exorcists handling related incidents in Urayasu City."

“But the association’s words are no longer reliable.” Aida Gaku shook his head.

"So, as long as we make a move and cause a big commotion, the restless exorcists will definitely follow. At that time, the half-demon of Urayasu City will definitely be no match for the exorcists who have mobilized their entire force!"

"I see!" Ejima Iya seemed quite excited: "The battle between Kamen Riders and monsters has now been disrupted by a new force! This is really interesting!"

"Since Kiryu-kun needs help, how can we just stand by and do nothing! Since we've decided to become Kamen Riders, we must uphold justice and hope!" Ejima Iya waved his hand sharply: "It's decided, Aida-kun, let's go!"

"I'll show those weirdos in Urayasu City my raging winds! Do you hear me? It's the wind of the Wind City!"

"Hey! Half-demons, come and count your sins!" Ejima Izai stretched out a hand and pointed to an empty place, looking incredibly chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur).

Aida Gaku felt the same way, but at least... the result was good?

He let out a sigh of relief and then said, "Then let's contact Kiryu-kun. I think he'll be very happy to have new reinforcements."

Jiangdao Yizai nodded, even rubbing his hands together, looking eager.

Aida Yue took out his phone and called Dou Tang.

………………

Dou Tang, who was watching Lu Zizhen set up the spell, picked up the phone and glanced at it.

Aida Gaku... that bald monk, what's he doing on the phone?

Dou Tang pressed the answer button.

"Kiryu-kun! Excuse me for bothering you. We heard about what happened in Urayasu City and know you're there. I'm currently with Mr. Ejima Iya, and we're planning to head to Urayasu City to lend you our support!"

Dou Tang raised an eyebrow.

Goodness... a godsend for someone who's sleepy?

Will there be reproductive isolation in Chapter 127?

The help from Ejima Iya and Aida Gaku was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise.

Although Doutang is not short of manpower now, wouldn't it be better to have just one more person as a safety net?

Moreover, Aida Gaku is considered outstanding among exorcists, while Ejima Iya is an even more powerful evil spirit. Tou Tang even suspects that if Ejima-sensei were to unleash his full power, he wouldn't be any less formidable than Ito-sama back then.

With these two people helping him, Dou Tang hardly needs to think about anything else; he can just go straight for it!

After hanging up the phone, he immediately told Lu Zizhen the good news. Lu Zizhen was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and asked for Aida Yue's phone number, and discussed something with Aida Yue.

Time flew by and it was already afternoon. Aida Yue drove up to the warehouse.

Kotaro and the others already knew that Tou-tang had called in outside help, and they were all eager to know who this outside helper was.

After a while, Aida Gaku, dressed in a monk's robe, walked in pushing a huge box.

Dou Tang asked in confusion, "What... is this?"

Lu Zizhen then called out to the others, "Come on, everyone, come over here."

Xueqing subconsciously moved a little further away, her brows furrowed, while Lao Lang and Guang Taro, who were the most curious, came closer.

Old Wolf stared at the box, while Kotaro said, "Mr. Aida Gaku, is that right? It's a pleasure to meet you. You can just call me Kotaro. It's really touching that you came all the way from Tokyo to support us!"

Aida Gaku laughed heartily, rubbed his bald head with a hearty grin, and said, "What are you saying! Mr. Kotaro is such a great guest!"

"Ugh! Come on, come on, look what gifts I brought for everyone!"

"Are there gifts inside?" Old Wolf pointed to the box in front of him. "It's not a bunch of weapons or something, is it?"

After all, Aida Gaku is tall and burly with a fierce look, making him seem more like a yakuza member!

Aida Gaku chuckled and patted the box, saying, "This... why don't you two open it yourselves?"

Kotaro and Old Wolf were completely unaware that everyone else had already retreated, except for the two of them.

The somewhat excited Old Wolf rubbed his hands together and placed them on the box. Kotaro also came over, and the two of them slowly opened the box together.
