My tenants are monsters

The role of [Calm Like Water] is worth discussing.

First of all, [Calm Like Water] is a passive, which is the same as [Animal Affinity], basically it doesn't need to consume spiritual energy to take effect.

That's a good point.

Secondly, the three effects of reducing the presence of breath and vitality, being hungry, and being able to survive in extreme environments are definitely useful, especially when encountering long-distance travel and fighting with monsters. It is an excellent auxiliary function to paralyze the opponent, or to take advantage of random running.

By the way, the so-called "reducing vitality" is actually suppressing one's own living breath. When one looks at the past in the mirror, the intuitive effect is that one's complexion becomes paler, as if recovering from an illness.But it's not easy to see if you don't look carefully.

That's not bad at all.

but……

It is also because it is passive that Shiraishi Rin can clearly feel that after obtaining this function, there are several more "side effects".

For example, my heart rate has dropped below 60 beats per minute—in fact, it may only be about 50 beats; the body surface temperature has also dropped by a degree or two compared to normal; more importantly, my appetite has weakened to a certain extent, although Not anorexic yet, but definitely less keen on eating.

This point is very bad.

Especially the side effect of reducing appetite... If you lose the ability to taste delicious food, then at least half of the joy of life will be lost.

But okay.

The magnitude of these changes is generally not too large, and it is still within the normal range, and when Shiraishi Rin consciously mobilizes spiritual power to resist, it can weaken the impact of this "side effect" to a certain extent, allowing the heartbeat and appetite After recovering a little bit, Shiraishi Rin let out a long sigh of relief after confirming the situation.

Anyway, she doesn't eat 24 hours a day, she just needs to use spiritual power to reduce the side effect of reducing appetite when she eats three meals a day.

"Say..."

At this moment, Shiraishi Rin suddenly had a strange idea in his heart——

Is Mizunuma Mimiko's "anorexia" related to her current state?

The side effects brought about by [Calm Like Water] are actually very similar to "anorexia", so could it be that the real body of the otaku manga artist is also a zombie, so that's why she showed a love for food—to be precise Dislike of human food?

Rin Shiraishi recalled in his heart the information he had obtained when he was in contact with Mimiko Mizunuma before, and compared it with Hayami Iris, it felt a bit similar, but not quite.

If Mizunuma Mimiko's identity is also a zombie, then Shiraishi Rin should not be unable to see the yin type of Hayami Iris when the two have the same root.And in Shiraishi Rin's impression, Mimiko Mizunuma does not have the characteristics of not breathing and hypothermia...

"Forget it, let's find a chance next time, let the two of them meet, and see if we can get any useful clues..."

After making up his mind, Shiraishi Rin closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

……

It was a peaceful night.

The next morning.

Because it was Sunday, Shiraishi Rin deliberately slept in bed for a while, and got up about 10 minutes later than usual. After breakfast, he went to the next door to take a look at the early morning calamus, and confirmed that the zombie lady did not make a fuss. After something happened, I went upstairs to find Misato Shimoshima.

"Xiao Lin, are you here?"

Shimoshima Misato obviously woke up a long time ago, but it may be because she just woke up when she went to find Shiraishi Rin last time, so she didn't go down to find her.

When we meet now, it is inevitable to say a few more things about seeing Calamus early.

——The Shiraishi apartment is that big, and the room that Shiraishi Rin arranged for Hayami Iris is still on the first floor. They tossed in the corridor for a long time yesterday afternoon. Naturally, Shiroshima Misato, who lives at the entrance of the second floor, cannot be completely absent hear.

"That girl named Hayami Iris... did she run away from home?"

Shimoshima Misato asked tentatively: "I don't think she is very old, and she is dressed in a strange way. She won't be the kind of homeless person who ran out privately because she was addicted to anime and had trouble with her family. A girl with problems, right? If that's the case, it's better to contact her parents, I personally don't recommend you take her in like this."

After a pause, the policewoman added: "But it doesn't matter if you have to take her in. I can help you say hello to the police."

"Forehead……"

It is actually normal for the policewoman to have such a misunderstanding.

The phenomenon of running away from home in Japan is quite common.

For this reason, the term "God treats girls" was derived, referring to those girls who fell out with their families due to material or psychological reasons and ran away from home, and asked strangers to take them in for the night through the Internet or other means. Moreover, this group can be equated with "assistant communication" in a sense.As for why there is no "God treats young people"... probably because those "strangers" are not interested in young people.

Although I saw Ayame early as a zombie, she looks like an ordinary high school student or just entered college. It is not a common phenomenon for a girl of this age to live in an apartment alone, so Misato Shimoshima made a decision out of professional sensitivity. This judgment is also completely reasonable.As for the white hair that I saw calamus early on, people who don't know the truth will definitely not think that it is natural.

Strictly speaking, it is illegal to take in minors without the permission of their guardians.That's why Shimoshima Misato gave such a reminder.

only……

In fact, this is not the case, and it is a bit difficult to explain for a while.

Volume 215: Chapter [-] What's That Voice?

"That girl... I did meet outside, but her situation is a bit complicated. I can't explain it to Sister Shuangdao for the time being. In short, you only need to know that she is an adult, and she can live in Shiraishi The apartment was also decided after we discussed it.”

Bai Shilin pursed his lips lightly, and continued: "Also, I'm here to ask you to help investigate something."

"Oh?"

Shimoshima Misato frowned slightly, and instead of entangled in the topic of Hayami Iris, she asked, "You mean?"

"It was the landslide that happened in the Sendagaya Tunnel some time ago. I want to know the ins and outs of this incident."

"?"

After listening to Shiraishi Rin's words, Shimoshima Misato narrowed her eyes and stared at her face carefully: "Little Rin, did you find any clues? Could it be related to the round light technique?"

"No, I'm just curious. In addition... I have a little immature guess that I want to verify."

Shiraishi Rin gave this vague explanation.

Of course this is a lie.

But Shiraishi Rin can't tell Shimoshima Misato clearly that she saw that Iris was a zombie who escaped from the Sendagaya tunnel, and she had already brought the zombie lady back to Shiraishi's apartment from Setagaya District, so she asked about it. The problem with this matter.

——This piece of information does not have to be disclosed to the special class, but the premise is that Shiraishi Rin needs to find out the general situation of Hayami Iris, and make sure that if something happens later, he can properly deal with it.Otherwise, if there is a conflict between the special class and Hayami Iris, causing the latter to riot again, it will be troublesome.

Although Hayami Iris, who is now a tenant, can't cause her harm, if the latter chooses to run away, Shiraishi Rin can't stop her.Then all the comforting work she had worked so hard to do before would be in vain.

Speaking of...

In fact, Shiraishi Rin also thought about asking Shimoshima Misato, or the special class, to help her investigate the Naruya Hospital fire case and the matter of Matsutani Nobuko, but after thinking about these two ideas for a while, she ruled them out .

Needless to say, Naruto Hospital, she has already read the files of the special section, and there is no mention of the Iwata family, and [Kaito] is a monster much stronger than Inugami, even if Rin Shiraishi said that he confirmed the identity of the arsonist, Special classes also cannot act in a short time.To deal with monsters of this level, I am afraid that half of the entire Sensoji Temple will be mobilized.

Besides, it took 11 years for Fudou to set fire, and it is unknown where he has gone now.

The matter of Asakura Hanagi is even more impossible to say, because it involves many doubts in the Kumamoto and Inugami incidents, and Asakura Hanagi’s obsession is probably to ask Matsutani Nobuko to pay with blood. After that, Asakura Hanagi dragged Matsutani Nobuko with her back foot and died together. Then this matter is completely unclear.

Only Sendagaya, Shiraishi Rin has too little information now, if she does not use the power of the special class, it will be difficult for her to investigate the detailed information by herself.

A brief silence.

Then, Shimoshima Misato smiled: "Well, I will help you collect information about this matter as soon as possible, although I heard a little from the department head and others before, but I don't know everything, and I need to sort it out. But after you finish what you have to do... Remember to tell me.

Whether it's about Sendagaya, or about that Miss Iris. "

"...Okay, I will."

Shiraishi Rin nodded vigorously.

To be honest, Shimoshima Misato has already given her a high level of trust. Although there is no way to show her cards now, after finding out the details of Hayami Iris... I can still exchange some information that can be said with this policewoman After a while, reciprocate.

……

This weekend, Shiraishi Rin did not go to work in the special class, but after sitting here for a while in Shimoshima Misato, she went back downstairs, and then went to 102 with Ogino Yoshie.

In name, it is to "help" Hayami Iris, who just moved in, adapt to the environment in the apartment, but in fact it is to further observe and test this zombie lady.

The reason for bringing Yoshie Ogino is that the mother is older and well-informed, so she can help Rin Shiraishi to check; the other is that Yoshie Ogino is also a cat demon, and Hayami Iris, who is a zombie, is an inhuman Heterogeneous, communication should be smoother.

While the three of them were sitting in the living room and chatting, Rin Shiraishi heard a faint sound of music coming from the direction of 104. It could be vaguely heard that it was Takaichi Shimizu and his classmates from 104 who started rehearsing again. up.

Since last month, these people have come to Shiraishi's apartment every weekend to make a fuss for a while. At first, Shiraishi was worried, for fear that they would cause some trouble by their recklessness, but after a period of time, they have been in peace. So she gradually became less worried.Anyway, before 09:30 in the evening, Takaichi Shimizu will definitely stop consciously.

Moreover, there should not be many rehearsals like this.

Because the show that Takaichi Shimizu and others are going to perform is at the end of November, and there is only one week away from now. It is estimated that they will completely stop after the performance next week.

However, it was the first time I saw Acorus early seeing this kind of battle, and immediately frowned, looking at Rin Shiraishi and Yoshie Ogino suspiciously: "What's that sound?"

"It's a musical instrument, haven't you touched it before?"

Shiraishi Rin and Ogino Yoshie glanced at each other, then looked at Hayami Iris again, staring at her expression carefully.

The latter shook his head: "Those instruments I have heard before can't make such a sound."

"Oh?"

The musical instruments used by Takaichi Shimizu and others are electronic-style modern pop music, with a history of only 30 to [-] years, so it is normal for Hayami Iris, who just ran out of the Sendagaya Tunnel, to not know about it.It is estimated that when this zombie lady was still alive, Japan only had shakuhachi, taiko, shamisen and other classical instruments...

Ogino Yoshie pondered for a while, then gave Baishi Rin a wink, and said: "Miss Rin, Sachiko went to your place just now, and may mess up some things, or you should go back and have a look, and I will sit down with Miss Acorus for a while?"

"what?"

Rin Shiraishi was stunned for a moment, and understood the meaning of the cat demon mother. He hesitated for a while, and then nodded under Ogino Yoshie's eyes, "Okay, let's talk first."

After leaving the two tenants behind, Shiraishi Rin got up and left 102, returning to her room.

At this time, Sachiko and Hana Asakura had already started playing console games.

VOLUME 216: Chapter [-] The Pine Valley Consortium

That's right, the batch of "return presents" that Nogi Maki sent last time has basically become Sachiko's exclusive game console.

Rin Shiraishi would play with her occasionally, but because she was short on time, most of the time she was busy training abilities such as mind power and gaining the favorability of tenants, so she didn't have time to play games with Sachiko, so she served as the little girl's teammate The work was mainly handed over to Hanakura Asakura.

Anyway, now the pale figure has been imprisoned in the scroll of sealing demons, and Asakura Huali is fine.

This Wraith, who died six years ago, didn't have the opportunity or time to play games, but after becoming a Wraith, he enjoyed this aspect of fun.If she is given a little more time, she might degenerate into a pale, human-like internet-addicted girl...

However, when Shiraishi Rin came back, Asakura Hanagi put down the handle in a panic and retreated to the side, as if she met a Huaxia middle school student whose head teacher checked Qin.This scene fell in Bai Shilin's eyes, making her a little dumbfounded.

"Leave me alone, play whatever you want, I'll go out and buy something and come back."

Rin Shiraishi waved his hand, motioning for the two to continue, then took the money and went out again, and ran to the [-]-chome department store.

After picking and choosing, I bought some washing and cleaning products, as well as inner and outer clothes.

Outer clothes are easy to buy, simple T-shirts and sweaters are fine, and there are two pairs of shoes, both of which are sneakers, so you don’t need to pay too much attention to the brand.Anyway, I took it back for Hayami Iris to wear, and the zombie lady probably wouldn't mind the quality of these clothes.

She may not understand these questions at all...

But the clothes inside are not so easy to handle.
