This curse has been rampant for nearly a year, and no one has tried to remove it...

Is it because he didn't find it, or is it because there is a more dangerous curse spirit wreaking havoc, so he can't control it at all?

Tuk-tuk-tuk....

Just as Isabella was thinking about this, there was a knock on the apartment door.

"Here we come, please wait!"

There was another unfamiliar face outside the door, this time a woman with short blond hair wearing a smart black suit, but it could be seen at a glance from the brown-black hair roots with the original color.... This yellow hair seemed to be dyed.

Isabella raised the corners of her mouth and smiled bitterly: "Um... who are you?"

The woman's expression was a little surprised at first, and then she nodded as if she understood.

"Okay, let me reintroduce you. I am Akira Nitta, senior assistant supervisor."

Nitta Akira pointed at Isabella, then helplessly held his forehead and walked into the room in a familiar manner.

"I was so worried that I couldn't sleep after I heard that you were attacked! Fortunately, I saved my life, but amnesia is a bit too dramatic... Who would have thought that it was true!"

Nitta Akira went straight to the refrigerator and opened the door, "You haven't had lunch yet. It's almost evening now. I was wondering if you would even forget how to cook..."

She took out a few ingredients: "Well, what do you want to eat?"

The smile on Isabella's face was a little forced, and she took half a step back.

Are you familiar with me... This lady... Although she is said to have amnesia in the setting, this is actually the first time she has seen her.

Her dark blue eyes were staring straight at him, and she was still wearing a suit. Considering her age, she looked too much like her sister! ?

"Sorry, I have no appetite at the moment..."

Isabella waved her hand politely, signaling Nitta Akira not to bother coming over to cook for her.

Unexpectedly, as if she knew what Isabella was thinking, she threw the ingredients back into the refrigerator and patted the dust on her hands.

"Ah, even if you have lost your memory...Isabella, your personality has not changed much. Are you worried about the escaped curse spirit?"

"this...."

"Supervisor Ijichi has told me that I am here to assist you." Nitta Akira's eyes dimmed for a moment, but when she raised her head again and looked at Isabella, she was already full of determination.

"The time for this mission is tight. No other conjurer can spare time to deal with the third-level curse spirit. Mr. Ichichi is also very busy, so this time I can only let you, Teacher Isabella, handle it."

"If you can still fight, please treat this mission as rehabilitation training. It's time for us to set off."

"Where to go?!"

Nitta Akira raised his phone and lit up the screen. The message that the subway was delayed was just refreshed a minute ago.

"Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line - Otemachi Station!"

Chapter 4 Young man, you are very brave

On Cheng Rang's side, he was running out of the izakaya dejectedly under the death gaze of the clerk.

He drank to relieve his worries, which made them even worse. He went there too early and accidentally almost dried up all the inventory in the store, making it impossible to entertain the next guests. Four large handfuls of coins were turned out and left on the counter to settle the bill...

The sales smile on the clerk's face was almost distorted. He counted them one by one for a long time, and finally he twitched the muscles on his face and sent Cheng Jing out of the door with a smile.

"Thank you for your patronage, welcome to come again next time!"

The cash register counter couldn't even hold so many coins, so they ended up wrapping them in cardboard and stuffing them under the cabinet.

It’s really hard for people to keep a polite smile and say such things.

Carefully tossing the last five hundred yen coin back and forth in his hand, Cheng Rang walked aimlessly on the street with his pocket in his pocket.

The cursed spirit that was just solved in the park was too weak to even complete the mission indicator... The container for finding the Cursed King Liang-Mian Sunuo mentioned in Route 2 was even impossible to find.

"I don't even know what Liangmian Sunuo is... Where can I find its container?!"

So is there any curse spirit that I can get rid of? It’s best to get more at once, so I can save the money and go look for it.

The sky gradually turned dark, and the orange-red fire clouds dimmed the entire street.

"ah...."

Cheng Rang suddenly stopped and caught the falling coin.

"Speaking of which... I don't seem to have anywhere to stay tonight."

Looking at the five hundred yuan coins left in his hand, Cheng Rang didn't think this would allow him to find a decent place to live tonight...

There wasn't much money left, and the Coke he bought was all wasted by the curse. Cheng Rang, who had never been in an economic crisis, really couldn't live in this modern legal society.

In the Black Bullet World, you can at least become a policeman... Gastrea animals are everywhere outside the wall, but there don't seem to be that many curse spirits here for you to chop...

And when I asked around, no one had heard of a job where you could get paid for eradicating a curse... Passers-by even looked at Cheng Rang with crazy looks and took a detour.

"In a peaceful society... there is no place for me, the Sword God, to be useful?!"

This is too much. Is it possible that I really have to sleep on the street tonight?

There are tens of thousands of zers stuffed in the wallet, and the balance in the card is countless, but it is no different from waste paper here.

There is no bank that supports the swap between the currency unit "Zer" and the US dollar.

"Ah...we walked too hastily and forgot this point. We made a mistake."

But fortunately, my wife shouldn’t have to worry about money... In that case, I might as well——

"Why are you so embarrassed to ask for money from your wife!" Cheng Rang suddenly held his head and knelt on the ground. Not to mention that there was no need to worry about whether Isabella would ask such a question, Cheng Rang couldn't say this.

"Isn't there a kind-hearted person who came over and invited me to live in his house? A rich and beautiful girl descended from the sky would be fine..."

However, the beautiful girl didn't wait, but a spirited young man did.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you? You look like you need help..."

"...Uncle? Who do you call uncle?"

"You."

Cheng Rang raised his head. In the sky with the setting sun in the background, in front of him was a pink-haired hedgehog-headed boy in a sweatshirt. He was looking down at him with his eyes wide open and his pockets in his pockets.

"I just came out of the izakaya, smelling of alcohol, and kneeling in the middle of the road frustrated... Are you drunk?"

Cheng Rang stood up suddenly and looked directly at the young man in front of him.

"Ho? You are very brave. I have never been drunk before!"

The young man raised his finger innocently: "What is this?"

"Didn't I tell you that I'm not drunk?"

"No one who is drunk will admit that he is drunk, uncle..."

"Don't call me uncle! I'm still young!" Cheng Rang slowly lost confidence under the young man's gaze. He scratched his cheek and said, "Ahem, maybe... I'm not that young after all. ~"

"Do you need me to call the police?"

"Please don't bring me any trouble..."

"Then I'll take you home?"

"I'm bothered by this."

The boy lowered his head and sighed, "Are you so drunk that you can't find your home? So it's better to call the police."

After hearing this, Cheng Rang simply broke the pot and said: "Ah~ It's not that I can't find a home...it's that I don't have a home here."

"No place to stay?"

"I don't have any money - why don't you lend me some?"

"Who would lend money to a stranger without any reason..."

"Then let me stay overnight."

"Refuse, for the same reason." The young man crossed his hands decisively and rejected Cheng Rang's outrageous request.

"So it's okay. You can't help me. I'm ready to sleep on the street tonight...ah no, I'm ready to protect the peace of the people all night! This is my duty, go home quickly, boy, your mother shouted You go home for dinner." Cheng Rang waved his hand, as if to shoo away flies, signaling the young man to leave quickly.

"You are indeed very drunk." The young man put his hands in his pockets again and decided not to care about this strange guy anymore. "Be careful on the road, uncle, and protect the people's peace all night long - thank you for your hard work!"

Then he crossed the procession and continued walking forward.

"Hehe... You're quite funny, you can actually make such a joke with me."

Passing so many people on the road, he was the only one who stopped and asked if he needed help. Although his attitude was a bit "bad", he was still more or less a good person.

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

The young man waved his hand to Cheng Rang without looking back.

"First grader at Sugisawa Third High School, Yuhito the Japanese knotweed."

"My name is Cheng Rang. For today's sake, if you encounter anything in the future, I can help you settle it. The fee is... half price!"

The young man named Kizuna Hisahito stopped.

"Can everything be settled?"

"certainly."

He smiled, "I know, thanks!"

It seemed that he didn't take Cheng Rang's words to heart.

After a brief interlude, I said goodbye to the boy. But Classmate Huzhang didn't seem to know how incredible it was that he got the promise of a sword god in just a "nosy" greeting.

[Main mission line 2: Find the container of the cursed king "Two-faced Su Nuo" (completed!)]

[The mission is completed and rewards are being distributed...]

[Main mission line 2 (updated): Ensure that the container "Hiruto the Japanese knotweed" is combined with the special spell "Finger of Two-faced Sunuo". 】

[Task rewards have been distributed: 1,500 system gold coins, 9 intermediate refining enhancement stones, which have been stored in the system backpack. 】

"Um?"

It wasn't until Cheng Rang lost sight of the knotweed that the system message came belatedly, which made his smile suddenly freeze on his face.

mission completed? What task has been completed?

Cheng Rang lowered his head and took a closer look - what the hell? !

"Wait a minute! Classmate Knotweed, I see your bones are amazing and unique. Do you want to consider hiring me as a bodyguard? Hey!"

When Cheng Rang started to chase after him again, he realized that the figure of the tiger stick had already gone to nowhere, and the speed was astonishingly fast.

"Weird! Do high school students run so damn fast nowadays?"

He was thinking to himself that indeed there were clues to follow when the system sent him here in the first place. Cheng Rang's mission tonight was most likely to find where classmate Huzhang lived.

At least we need to figure out his movement trajectory...

"Wait, it seems there's no need to go to such trouble." Cheng Rang touched his chin and recalled the young man's self-introduction.

[First grader at Sugisawa No. 3 High School, Yuhito Kizuna]

The students will definitely have to go to class, so I can just wait and see what happens tomorrow morning. The plan will work!

He took out the map from his pocket and after comparing it for a while, Cheng Rang found the location of the high school where Huzhang attended.

If you sleep on the street, sleep on the street. Once you complete the task progress here, you will go find your wife immediately!

Cheng Rang stepped forward, and his destination was as far as Shanze No. 3 High School.

At the same time, Isabella and Akira Nitta also walked into the subway platform.

Looking around, the subway was crowded with people during the rush hour. It was not easy to find the cursed spirit in such a dense flow of people.

Nitta Akira put down his mobile phone and said: "Get ready... Teacher Isabella, since the train has been delayed, it proves that——"

"...Someone may have been killed."

Chapter 5 Exclusion

Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line, Otemachi Station. It is the largest subway station in the Tokyo metropolitan area and the largest underground station in Japan, integrating 5 subway lines.
