My tenants are monsters

Although I don't intend to ask directly, but if you want to insinuate, there are actually many ways.

"Sachiko, what I want to ask next is a secret between the two of us.

Sister Lin promises that she will not tell anyone, so you can tell her with confidence. "

Shiraishi lowered his voice, and after saying this softly, he looked at Sachiko intently: "My sister asked you, did you drive the group of stray cats that appeared in the woods and attacked Nakamura last night? Is it the unique ability of your cat demons?"

"……Yes."

Sachiko nodded, seemed to remember her reason for coming, and explained in a low voice: "Actually, I didn't intend to kill him at first, but I was dissatisfied with his cruel treatment of stray cats, and smashed sister Rin with stones. I want to teach him a lesson with other stray cats, so that he will not dare to approach Shiraishi apartment and elder sister Rin in the future...

But I didn't expect that such a thing would happen. In the end, sister Rin was involved and you were arrested by the police. I'm so sorry for you. "

"There's no need to apologize for this kind of thing."

In Shiraishi Rin's view, Nakamura should have paid the price for his actions long ago.

This guy's crimes may not be comparable to those "boy A" who wrote his own experience as a bestseller after torturing and killing others, but it is a fact that he "killed" his mother himself. There is no difference in the degree of brutality.

And, if it weren't for this incident, his evil deed might never have been discovered.

In addition, Nakamura had already thrown Molotov cocktails at his home this time, which was considered an "attempted murder".

It may only be a matter of time before he grows into a reckless murderer in the future. Instead of accepting the punishment of the law at that time, it is better to kill everything in the cradle now, and it will be more straightforward.

It is wrong to use violence to control violence, but it works.

From Sachiko's point of view, Nakamura killed more than a dozen of his own kind in two years. As a cat demon, it is also reasonable to avenge those wild cats that were tortured and killed.

After all, the life of a cat demon is also life...

They are also creatures with high intelligence, and there is no distinction between high and low in essence. The only thing worthy of criticism is to use violence to control violence.This method is indeed simple and effective, but it is by no means the only way to deal with it. The best way is to rationally use the rules of human society to punish Nakamura.

But this kind of request is a bit too high for Sachiko, a young cat demon. It is estimated that she did not discuss it with others before taking this action...

Immediately, Shiraishi softened his voice, gently patted Xingzi's shoulder and comforted him: "My sister doesn't blame you for doing such a thing, but in the future, I hope you don't be so impulsive, and you can come and discuss with my sister. , let's figure out a better way to solve it together.

By the way, that guy was impaled to death by a tree branch in the end, did you also do it, Sachiko? "

This time, Sachiko shook her head.

"no."

"Actually, the guy named Nakamura is not very powerful, but the woman on him is very difficult to deal with. I can't beat her. At most, I can only catch Nakamura a few times while she is not paying attention, and finally Iwa..."

Halfway through uttering the name, Sachiko became hesitant to speak again, as if she was afraid to reveal the identity of the real murderer.

"It's the kid from the Iwata family, right?"

Shiraishi Rin added.

"what?"

Sachiko opened her eyes wide at first, and then showed an expression of sudden realization: "Hey, sister Rin, you even have this... Oh yes, I forgot that sister Rin has the ability to see our identities, but I don't know them very well. , and have not communicated beforehand, it is a coincidence that we met in the grove this time..."

[them]

Shiraishi Rin's heart trembled.

It seems that Toshio Iwata is not the only ghost in the Iwata family, and one or two of the Iwata couple may be added.

And that one's strength may be quite good, because Nakamura Nao's wraith, which Sachiko Ogino couldn't beat, was actually dealt with in such a short half a minute and directly smashed into pieces.Although it is not clear how the strength of these guys is divided, this kind of thing is obviously not something that ordinary ghosts can do.

"Sachiko, I have another question for you..."

Rin Shiraishi took a deep breath: "Are there many existences like you in this world?

For example, is there any difference or distinction between the human-faced spider we saw in the department store last time, and you, and Toshio Iwata and the others? "

------

ps: ask for tickets~

Volume 44: Chapter [-] The uncle on the third floor?

"There should be... quite a few."

Facing this question, Sachiko Ogino hesitated for a while, as if she didn't know how to answer:

"Sister Lin, if you are talking about the existence of human-faced spiders, there should be quite a lot of them, and they can be seen in many places, but if it is Iwata... that kind, I don't know. Because among them Many of them are disguised as human beings living in the city. It is difficult to distinguish them from their appearance, words and deeds. Only after a period of contact can they be recognized from other places.

Since you don't even know about Sister Rin, then I don't even know about these things. "

"..."

Sachiko obviously misunderstood something.

Looking at her appearance, he clearly thought Shiraishi Rin was an experienced veteran, and even discovered her true identity early in the morning, but deliberately did not reveal it.But in fact... Rin Shiraishi only guessed at the department store, and it was not confirmed until today.

If we really want to talk about the time of "entering the industry", she is the latest one in this apartment.

But Sachiko's answer was expected for Shiraishi Rin.

She has long realized that the world she is in now should be a world where ghosts and humans co-exist.

Like Ogino Sachiko, there are not a few aliens who pretend to be ordinary people living in human society. They even go to school, work, eat, and sleep like humans... The "tauren" Shiraishi saw in Arakawa Hospital before, I'm afraid he is also one of these ghosts, and that guy even goes to the hospital to see a doctor!

As for whether to see a doctor for real or fake, that's another matter. Maybe I went to the hospital to see my companion.

But what Shiraishi Rin didn't know was——

In this world, which side is dominant.

This is critical.

If the masters are ghosts, then these disguises may be purely a game they use to pass the time, and their real purpose is to keep humans in captivity, and then they themselves will blend in and observe from the sidelines, just like a cat-and-mouse game.And this worldview is undoubtedly very hopeless.

And if the leader is a human being, then these disguises are actions made by ghosts out of helplessness when their overall strength cannot compete with humans.That means that there must be ways to restrain these ghosts in human society, just like the common "special departments" in novels.

Both possibilities make sense, but represent very different meanings.

And the answer to this question...

Sachiko didn't know either.

Facing Shiraishi Rin's questioning, this little cat demon hesitated a bit, obviously because he was still young and lacked understanding of the world view.

And from the tone and wording of Sachiko's words, it sounds like she obviously didn't want to involve her mother in the matter, even when she was "inadvertently" asked by Rin Shiraishi about Yoshie Ogino, she would consciously avoid such things. topic.

Therefore, Rin Shiraishi could only skip the matter about the Ogino family again, and asked another question:

"Then, will there be conflicts and fights between you monsters? If the person who conflicts with you is not Nakamura, but me..."

"No, sister Rin."

This time, Sachiko shook her head hastily: "I heard Mom...others said that if existences like us want to live in human society, they must abide by human rules, and monsters who kill or eat people at will will be arrested. Yes...and Elder Sister Rin, your apartment seems to be quite special. As tenants, we, no matter what the circumstances, can't hurt the owner of the apartment.

Even if it is not intentional, if you try intentionally, you will be punished very severely. "

"Oh?"

Bai Shilin's eyes moved.

Obviously, the person who told Sachiko that "killing monsters will be captured" should be Yoshie Ogino.But based on this sentence alone, it is impossible to tell what form the "law enforcement agency" mentioned by the latter exists and who is in charge.

Given the ubiquity of ghosts and ghosts, even if such institutions exist in human society, the control over these wandering ghosts is not as strong as imagined.

At least it is much weaker than the ordinary police's control over criminals.

As for what makes White Rock Apartments special...

Does the apartment itself have any special protection measures for the administrator, which can prevent the tenant from attacking the administrator?

In this case, it can explain why Genichiro Shiraishi, the Iwata family and others have lived under one roof for more than ten years, and they can still live until they are 70 to [-] years old.

I encountered two supernatural events just a few days after I came here. Even if Genichiro didn't have a system, the chances of encountering such things would not be low. It died ten years ago.

——Of course, maybe the special features of this apartment were originally brought by Genichiro Shiraishi, and they still haven’t disappeared after the latter’s death. In that case, the real identity of this distant uncle is a bit powerful.

Before Shiraishi Rin asked what is special about this apartment, Sachiko seemed to remember something, and whispered:

"However, I just saw that uncle on the third floor ate a person at the entrance of the corridor a few days ago, and Iwata and the others killed Nakamura casually, but they were not arrested. Instead, sister Rin, you were arrested by the police ...Maybe someone who came to arrest us is a lie, those stupid policemen don't even know we exist..."

"Uncle... on the third floor?"

Shiraishi blinked.

This is referring to... that Baizu Dazang who has a bad temper?

When did this happen again?

"That day, sister Rin, when you brought food to my mother and me, my mother cooked a pot of fish soup and asked me to give you some, and then..."

Listening to Sachiko finish talking about Mozuku Daizo eating Matsumoto Yoshiyasu, Shiraishi Rin opened his mouth and didn't speak for a long time.

She thought that Matsumoto Yoshiyasu was not caught because the Japanese police were too inefficient... But this guy had already been to Shiraishi's apartment and was eaten by Baizu Dazang?

This……

According to the little girl's description, the main body of Baizu Dazang is a kind of arthropod-like existence, and there is a huge mouthpart on the upper body, like a centipede essence?

Yes.

In the ghost stories of Japan, there is indeed such a monster as "Hundred Foot", and perhaps the name of "Hundred Foot Dazang" actually comes from this.

"How come the Iwata family's matter has not been investigated yet, and the Mozuku Daizo in 303 also..."

Co-authoring the whole apartment and being a normal person?

"The water in this apartment is really not that deep..."

VOLUME 45: Chapter [-] Half Demon

Bai Shilin rubbed the center of his brows, his thoughts floating.

The only thing to be thankful for now is that this apartment seems to have a certain protective effect on himself as the owner, ensuring that these ghosts will not hurt himself.Whether there was a fight among the tenants is another matter.

But at least one thing is good, that is, these guys in the apartment can communicate with each other.

As long as it's reasonable, it's fine.

The most worrying thing is the kind of ghost that can't communicate at all, and will even kill people for no reason for some inexplicable reasons.If you encounter that kind of existence, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with it.

"In short, we have obtained the information of the three companies."
