I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

Reaching out to take out the meat bag in the incubator, Araki Sousuke passed it in front of the other party, pointed to the paper at the bottom of the meat bag and whispered: "The clerk... will write the expiration date with a pen in this corner! For example, this one has five hours left It's just expired... If you can stay until then and your eyesight is good enough, and this meat bun is not sold..."

"Not referring to this matter!"

The girl shook her head violently, and shoved the meat bag back in his hand with some embarrassment.

"Huh? Are you referring to the "Super Cooked" book? You only need to use a razor blade to carefully remove the plastic protective film from the side, and stick it back after reading it."

As Araki Sousuke spoke, he picked up the magazine with the best cover and gestured.

"It's not this either!!! I mean the removal of spirits."

The girl blushed, calmly but resolutely denied.

"In addition to... spirit? What are you talking about?" Araki Sousuke asked with a blank face.

"It's... the wraith of that old lady just now, how did you manage to make her become a Buddha?"

The girl turned her face away in embarrassment, pinching the corners of her clothes with her hands in a slightly tangled manner, as if she was embarrassed to ask this question.

As a "spirit remover", Yu Mayumi Kotori was originally entrusted by the convenience store to solve the problem of "ghost customers".

Ignoring the scary-looking, low-level convenience store clerk, and guarding the store for most of the night, she finally saw the ghost who came to shop.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the "spirit" only had a slight trace of resentment, which had not yet risen to the level of a resentful spirit.

This kind of ghost often dies with an unfulfilled wish, can't find peace, wanders in the world, and doesn't hurt people.

But if left unattended, under the opportunity, it may become a wraith at any time.

Moreover, there will be a small amount of resentment about the things that confuse people's hearts and counterfeit coins, which will make people who come into contact with low luck and extremely unlucky in the next few days.

Originally, she planned to wait for the ghost to leave the store before taking action to eliminate the ghost, but the clerk unexpectedly found out the clue and chased him out.

Worrying about what might happen, she quickly followed her out.

Then, she saw a scene that she will never forget.

The clerk with a criminal face clearly only patted the ghost on the shoulder politely.

The black resentment that had been lingering on the ghost disappeared completely.

And that ghost turned into a pure white "spirit" in an instant, and slowly dissipated between the heaven and the earth.

In the words of the spirit remover, this extremely rare phenomenon is called "becoming a Buddha".

Even if it is an extremely vicious vengeful spirit, once it "becomes a Buddha", its appearance will return to the most beautiful moment in its life with consciousness, and it is very easy to distinguish.

This is the first time in Xiaoniao Yumaumi's life that he saw "becoming a Buddha".

Only by letting go of its obsessions, purifying its grievances, and reminding it of the happiest time in its life, can the spirit body be liberated by itself and truly "become a Buddha".

Under the accumulation of obsessions, ghosts will gradually become stubborn and distorted in consciousness, deviate from the original obsessions, have difficulty communicating, and may become troublesome wraiths at any time, let alone become Buddhas.

Therefore, "becoming a Buddha" can be met but not sought. Even if we understand the situation of the deceased in detail, the source of resentment, and satisfy the wish of the deceased, it may not be possible to achieve it.

The spirit remover tends to adopt the most efficient and concise method.

Use powerful means to completely break up and obliterate the spirit.

However, this kind of exorcism is as different from "becoming a Buddha" as cheap factory products and handmade works of art.

Therefore, she identified this clerk as an extremely skilled spirit remover.

Originally, it was extremely impolite for exorcists to inquire about other people's methods of exorcising without authorization.

But after seeing "Becoming a Buddha" just now, like a game lover who sees a set of unbelievable operations performed by a master, she couldn't help but go forward to ask for advice excitedly.

"Hey, that old lady just walked like flying, how can you curse others without authorization? Isn't your cosplay a witch who prays for people, you have to learn to blend into the role!"

Hearing that the other party referred to the old lady as a "ghost", Araki Sousuke felt a little unlucky.

"I see, your Excellency is concerned about the 'Public Confidentiality Act', right?"

The "Public Confidentiality Regulations" means that the spirit removers are not allowed to tell the unrelated people the truth, so as to avoid causing panic and a series of unpredictable consequences.

Kotori Yumasumi returned to the small table, took out a thin piece of paper from the HELLOKITTY schoolbag full of girlish hearts on the table, and held it in front of Araki Sousuke.

Under the calm expression, there was a hint of complacency.

This is a certificate that reads "Permission for Exorcism".

"Owner's name: Kotori Yumaumi...Allowed spirit removal level range: [One]...Issuing department is...Tokyo Metropolitan Metropolitan Police Department?!"

Sousuke Araki stared blankly at the "exemption" in the hands of Yu Mayumi Kotori.

Exemption, that is, the meaning of qualification certificate.

Araki Sousuke himself has driving and kendo licenses, but he has never heard of "exorcism license".

Japan is an extremely superstitious country. For many customs that have been handed down to this day, people still continue with the idea of ​​"preferring to believe it" and "just like everyone else".

For example, "Don't cut your nails at night", "Put your thumb into your fist when the ambulance passes by", "Say I'm home even if no one is home", and so on.

As for the shrines and temples enshrining various and different gods, most of them are legitimate existences that are more profitable than companies.

"The current cosplay props really have everything..."

After staring at the proud little bird Yumami for a few seconds, Araki Sousuke came to a conclusion.

"This... is not a cosplay item. This is a genuine exorcism license. I passed the test last month with great difficulty. You can feel it, there will be spiritual fluctuations in the rune in the lower right corner..."

An angry flush flashed across Kotori Yumasumi's face, and he tried his best to spread the "forgiveness" with both hands, hoping that the other party could sense it more clearly.

"Rune? What?"

"Hiss..." With a sound, the A4-sized paper in her hand was torn into two even halves due to excessive force...

"My exorcising permission..." Xiaoniao Youzhengong lowered his head in frustration, wanting to cry without tears.

"The quality of props is getting worse and worse..."

Sousuke Araki sighed and handed her a roll of transparent glue.

The girl glued the waiver without tears, put it back in her schoolbag with great care, and then turned her head to look at him angrily.

"So, even if you know my identity as a spirit remover, do you still have to pretend to be confused?"

Araki Sousuke looked at her with an expression of "Is this person delusional?"
