Chapter 37: Page 37

Of course, the ghost hand didn’t have a mouth, so it couldn’t give any answer.

Yexing also tried to ask it to answer by writing.

As a result, the ghost hand seems to be unable to write at all.

Still an illiterate hand.

What a shame.

However, through the fact that Yotsuya Miko successfully awakened her abilities, Ye Xing also gained some valuable information.

The pale ghost hand, like Jianzi's hundred eyes, is the embodiment of the soul, there is no doubt about that, it's just rather special.

The first special point is that Ye Xing doesn’t know the real name of Ghost Hand yet.

Perhaps we have to wait until the ghost hand is completely solidified and grows into a human form before we can use the method of calling its true name to release all its power.

the second.

The true appearance of the ghost hand is more terrifying than all the evil spirits he has seen so far.

The method of argument is simple.

Before she took the initiative to reveal the pale ghost hand, Yotsuya Miko was completely unaware of the existence of this hand.

There is only one explanation for the psychic's inability to see evil spirits.

Like Oda Noto, the old woman in the original plot, although they are also psychics, all they can see are vague black outlines. They are not like Yotsuya Miko, who can see the true face of evil spirits.

and.

The evil spirits were so powerful that they couldn't even observe them.

Among the evil spirits that Yexing knew, only his own pale ghost hand was an existence that even a powerful psychic like Yotsuya Miko was not qualified to "see".

The true form of this thing...

Could it be some Cthulhu-style evil god?

tentacle?

That's quite interesting.

Ye Xing was thinking so in his mind, and the thick black fog in front of him was gently pushed away by the pale ghost hand as he moved forward.

Gradually, Ye Xing's figure completely disappeared in the black fog.

Only the scarlet moon in the sky of the other world casts a miserable and eerie red light.

........

At the same time, in the activity room of the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Investigation and Research Society, abbreviated as Superquantum Society.

Rio Futaba stirred the coffee in the beaker, and the stirring stick hit the wall of the cup, making a crisp sound.

She looked at Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko, who were sitting opposite her, staring at their phone screens with nervous looks on their faces. She listened to the voices of reporters coming from the phones and sighed helplessly.

"Is there a younger sister or brother in that kindergarten?"

After spending these few days together, Futaba Rio, Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko can't be said to be friends, but they can still chat with each other when they occasionally meet in the activity room.

But today was the first time she saw these two people in the activity room after school.

Hearing this question, the two girls were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and shook their heads at the same time.

“I’m an only child.”

"That..."

Futaba Rio frowned slightly, with a meaningful look in her eyes. She picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee, then spoke casually.

“Why are you paying so much attention to this live broadcast?”

Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko were shocked when they heard this. In the end, it was Yotsuya Miko, who had a stronger mental state, who came to her senses first and forced a smile to explain.

"Well... after all, this has never happened before, and we are all a little worried."

"is it?"

Futaba Rio responded without comment.

"Why didn't Yexing come today?"

"Um...he had something to do, so he went home first."

"That's it."

Seeing that Futaba Rio seemed to have just asked casually and had no intention of delving too deeply into this topic, Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If the other party really asks them about the matter, it would be difficult for them to explain.

Originally, Yotsuya Miko also wanted to go with Yohoshi.

But after some consideration, she gave up the idea.

On the one hand, although Yotsuya Miko's hundred eyes have now grown to five eyes, its strength is at most comparable to one of the hundreds of evil spirits in the unfinished building, that is, the level of a B-level evil spirit.

She couldn't even imagine the dangers she might encounter while moving more than ten kilometers in the other world.

With this kind of strength, if she were to follow Ye Xing, she would only slow down the other party's movement speed in the black fog and would be of no help at all.

another reason.

The opponent this time is not an evil spirit.

But humans holding guns.

Before leaving, Yexing asked her a heart-touching question.

"Can you bring yourself to kill someone?"

At that time, Yotsuya Miko really wanted to say that she could do it as long as it was to protect innocent people.

But the reality is, she knows she can't do it.

At least I can't do it now.

There is no point in being stubborn.

All Yotsuya Miko can do now is to follow the reports from the reporters at the scene with Yuigahama Yui and pray silently in her heart.

...

Fifteen minutes later, outside Kyoto Municipal Kindergarten.

"How is the situation on site?"

A middle-aged man with glasses, short hair and beard, and a resolute expression, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves and asked a question to his subordinates beside him.

“Still no progress.”

"hateful..."

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and waved his hand.

"Get me a bulletproof vest. I'll go in alone and negotiate with the kidnappers!"

"This...can't do, Commander Ye Shen, you are the commander-in-chief on the scene, you can't put yourself in danger!"

"There is no other way!"

Soichiro Yagami, the chief of the Criminal Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department, clenched his teeth and clenched his hands tightly.

"More than an hour has passed. The kidnapper's mental state is not stable. If this continues... the hostages' lives will be in jeopardy..."

Hearing his words, the surrounding Metropolitan Police Department members and the Self-Defense Force members who came to support him fell silent.

The situation is very complicated now.

There were more than twenty kidnappers, each of them armed with a gun.

storm?

Among the hostages there, there were many kindergarten children aged five or six.

If there are casualties, who can take the responsibility?

This is the Sakura Province, not the Russians, so we can kill both the hostages and the kidnappers.

at this time.

"Commander Night God!"

A member of the Metropolitan Police Department wearing a bulletproof vest hurriedly ran up to Soichiro Yagami and reported breathlessly.

"Report... Report to Commander Ye Shen, an unidentified person has entered the scene!"

048 Hero Appearance

"What!?"

Soichiro Yagami's face changed drastically when he heard this.

"Haven't we surrounded all the entrances? Could it be that he came out from the kindergarten building? Is he one of the kidnappers? "

Hearing this question, the Metropolitan Police Department officer showed a complicated expression, shook his head, and replied cautiously.

"Reporting to the commander... That person appeared directly in the open space inside the school gate."

"Straight away?"

Soichiro Yagami was stunned for a moment, frowned and said seriously.

"Let me confirm again, what do you mean by appearing directly? Please explain it clearly."

"It just, literally, appeared there like a ghost."

"How can this be!?"

An expression of disbelief emerged on Soichiro Yagami's face. Without caring about anything else, he immediately walked towards the cordon and the direction of the kindergarten gate.

As the commander-in-chief on the scene, what he should be considering now is not how the other party broke through the encirclement and suddenly appeared in the kindergarten.

But would the kidnappers mistake the other party's sudden appearance as a signal for the police to launch an attack?

The kidnappers' emotions are not stable to begin with. If they are stimulated by this...

Thinking of this, Soichiro Yagami's face became so heavy that water seemed to be dripping out of it.

When he arrived at the gate, someone immediately came forward to report.

"Commander Ye Shen, this is the photo of that person just now."

Soichiro Yagami took the camera and took a look at it, and finally understood why his subordinate used the term "unidentified person" when reporting.

The person in the photo is about meters tall and is wearing a black full-coverage mask that leaves only a pair of eyes exposed.

Her black hair, about shoulder-length, was tied casually with a thin string.

From the hairstyle, it is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman.

The outfit was also a black coat, black shoes and pants.

Judging from the width of his shoulders and his height of about meters, he might be a male, but it is impossible to make a 100% judgment.

Even his hands were wearing gloves.

Not even the skin was exposed, and there was absolutely no clue to infer his identity.

"The way this guy is dressed... he must be a veteran."

Soichiro Yagami looked at the photos in the camera and said something with clenched teeth.

Even someone as experienced as him who had handled many major cases could not obtain any useful information from such attire.

The only characteristic feature is the black hair and black eyes that can be seen everywhere.

"Where is he? Where is this guy now!?"

"Report to the commander, he has entered the kindergarten's teaching building!"

"What!?"

When Soichiro Yagami heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

In?
