I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

"Huh...huh...this...this is much more exciting than VR horror movies..."

Sitting down on the ground, watching the countless upside-down human feet "magnificently" turn into spots of light, Araki Zongsuke held the severely injured Xiao Zongsuke in a daze for a while, then slowly got up, and took out the phone...

He clearly knows that once these ghosts come into contact, they will be "synchronized" by their own special physique to melt away the hidden energy field as the driving force, and thus restore them to "soul essence particles".

However, chanting slogans, imagining the handsome scene of exorcising spirits, and actually fighting hand-to-hand with the old lady in red are completely different experiences.

How to choose a reasonable "contact" method to "synchronize" these ghosts while avoiding excessive horror and unbearable memories for himself is the biggest issue currently plaguing Araki Sousuke.

"Moxi Moxi, little bird Youshi, are you asleep?"

"Mr. Araki... what time is it... have you arrived in Tokyo yet... I'll get up and prepare lunch..."

On the other end of the phone, a girl's sleepy and drowsy voice came.

"No, no, I'm still in Aichi Prefecture, so I have no choice but to disturb your sleep..."

Araki Sousuke apologized repeatedly, and then shared his tragic experience just now.

"...So, you were in the service area just now, because of some ulterior behaviors, you broke down a strange shrine, became the spirit body of an old woman, and then kicked away a woman who insisted on giving you her foot. The old lady in red?"

The girl who was still immersed in the bed was completely unable to react to his description with too much information.

"So that's the case, wait a moment..."

After a while, Yu Mayumi, who finally woke up, immediately searched for relevant information from the database of the Spirit Eliminator Association.

"Yes, Mr. Araki, what you encountered just now should not be a vengeful spirit, but a weird one of level [1], "Grandma who sells her feet". "

"Selling mother-in-law?!"

Out of the "fear" of the old woman's old appearance, there are many urban legends about "mother-in-law" in Japan.

The foot-selling mother-in-law of the weird level [1], this old-fashioned urban legend that has been passed down in Japan for decades, is one of the best.

It is said that this mother-in-law often appears on the small road or near the toilet late at night, and asks the people she meets with lines such as "Do you want feet?"

If the other party answered "no need", she would step forward without making a sound, and directly tear off one leg of that person with terrifying strange force.

If the answer is "yes", the end is not much better.

Because, this mother-in-law will happily connect a leg for you for free on a certain part of your body that she is comfortable with...

"You really are a mother-in-law who is full of vicious humor... But, I just didn't have time to answer her question just now."

Finally, he understood why the old woman in red poked the thick human foot into "Little Sousuke". When he thought of the picture of himself living with that thick and hairy "third foot", Araki Sousuke shuddered.

"Although in the legend, as long as the person doesn't answer the question, the mother-in-law who sells feet will keep pestering and asking until the person answers."

On the other end of the phone, Kotori Yumasumi's tone seemed unusually helpless.

"However, judging from the case information shared in Lesson 9, after asking several times without getting an answer, the mother-in-law who sells feet may act in a 'random selection' method."

Immediately, the girl's tone became happy because of the removal of this terrible weirdness: "Fortunately, it was Araki-sensei who met her today!"

Although the level of this weirdness is only [1], it is because the damage it causes is not 100% fatal, and it can only cause damage to a few people for a period of time.

In other words, for ordinary people, or even spirit destroyers whose strength is not strong enough to cure her, this type of weirdness is similar to the Gap Girl, and it can be said to be an unsolvable existence.

Araki Sousuke retired and cured this weird one, and there were many fewer victims who might be disabled because of "selling feet" or needed amputation of extra feet.

"I see, is this weird? It feels like a powerful and mechanical program..." Well, I didn't feel "lucky" at all for everything I just experienced. "

Sousuke Araki, still in shock, made a weak protest.

...

"Why did you go there for so long and the phone was busy, I thought you fell into the toilet."

"Sorry sorry, the toilet is under maintenance, so I found another place, and then some things happened..."

"No need to explain, I will pass on to you an easy-to-use kidney-reinforcing recipe. It is by relying on it that I have been undefeated in this line until today."

When Sousuke Araki returned to the parking lot, Uncle Watanabe had already refueled and was sitting in the cab ready to go.

"Uncle Watanabe, let me do the next part!"

Out of all kinds of guilt in his heart, Sosuke Araki took the initiative to apply for "overtime".

"Oh, all right?"

"Don't worry, this distance is nothing. I once rode a motorcycle from Tokyo all the way to Nagoya Port, and I didn't even go to the toilet on the way..."

"Moreover, I also want to keep some good memories of the rare 'one-day long-distance transportation industry'."

Originally, the two were supposed to exchange driving at the service area in Aichi Prefecture, and then at the service area near Numazu City.

But under Araki Sousuke's repeated insistence, Uncle Watanabe is also happy to take it easy.

Just as Sousuke Araki was driving a truck full of expensive Wagyu cattle slowly out of the service area, he didn't notice that in the green belt behind, a man wearing a peaked cap was watching this scene with a sneer.

...

"Araki-kun, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll squint for a while and call me if I need anything..."

"Wurs."

After the truck set foot on the highway, perhaps because he had just finished eating ramen, or perhaps because it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Uncle Watanabe felt sleepy for a while, and soon fell asleep lying on his back on the large seat.

As soon as the talkative Uncle Watanabe fell asleep, the cab instantly became extremely quiet, only the sound of the engine running and the wheels rubbing against the road could be heard.

Looking at the fast-receding highway that seemed to be shrouded in boundless darkness, I remembered that when I was most desperate, I unexpectedly passed the exorcism examination, and there was hope for the "reconnection" of the capital chain, and there were even people waiting in Tokyo. go back by yourself...

Sousuke Araki felt that this road seemed to be his own life. If you don't cross the darkness and come to the front, you will never know what is waiting for you.

The traffic flow at night is scarce, and it is easy to spot the front and rear vehicles with the help of lights.

In addition, trucks with a speed limit of 80 yards can only go in the slow lane. After the cruise control is turned on, all the driver has to do is to control the direction, which is quite easy.

"Hey, come this way, are there too many cats and dogs near the highway?"

From time to time, there are many cats and dogs wandering on the side of the highway.

When vehicles passed by, some of them trembled, some were terrified, or roared angrily.

Seeing the performance of these animals, Araki Sousuke couldn't help feeling a little palpitating.

"Sorry, I'm currently at work, so I can't spare you all. Next time, I'll make a special trip to come over..."

Although he didn't take off the blindfold, he already had the answer in his heart.

"Zizizi..."

Just when Araki Sousuke started to feel bored and looked around...

A noise came from the radio.
