My tenants are monsters

"Well... I'll finish eating soon, too."

Bai Shilin ate the remaining half of the cake in two or three bites, drank half a glass of milk on the table, then simply cleaned up the plate, and simply flushed in the sink: "Are you looking for me to go to the police?" Let’s go, is it the same place as last time?”

"Well, a colleague from the police station drove over and is waiting not far from the door of the apartment."

"what?"

Now Rin Shiraishi understood why Shimoshima Misato came so early, and it was because the people from the special class had already come early.That being the case, she was embarrassed to let the other party wait outside, wiped her hands, went back to the room to change clothes, and then walked out again with her backpack: "Let's go, I'm ready."

"Hmm... Are the three kittens here all raised by you, Xiao Lin?"

Shimoshima Misato was teasing three kittens in the corner of the living room, she raised her head and asked with a smile.

"Yes, they were all born to stray cats outside. Their mother was killed by... people, so I picked them up. I took them to get vaccinated at the beginning of the month, and these little guys are very obedient , don’t worry about being bitten or something.”

It seems that the love for fluffy animals is the instinct of most girls.

This was the case with Nogi Maki before, and as a well-trained policeman, Shimoshima Misato is also not exempt.

If I use my [Animal Friendly] ability to open a cat cafe, the business will definitely be very good...

Bai Shilin thought wildly for a while, then laughed dumbly.

On the other side, Shimoshima Misato finally ordered the orange cat's fat belly, then stood up: "Let's go."

Coming out of Shiraishi's apartment, Shiraishi Rin saw a gray car on the side of the road outside the grove.

After she and Shimoshima Misato went up, the policeman who drove the car stepped on the accelerator and drove all the way in the direction of Bunkyo District.After about 10 minutes or so, I came to the Wenjing Police Station, which I had visited once before, and entered the small building again.

This time, the two from Sensoji Temple were gone.

Rin Shiraishi said hello to Ichiro Nishihei as the head of the department, and under the guidance of the latter, together with Misato Shimoshima, came to a hall on the second basement floor of the small building—this hall seemed to be specially made Yes, the surrounding walls are all iron walls, and the door is also equipped with multi-layer combination locks. The layout inside is like a huge library, except that there are wide tables in the middle of every two rows of bookcases. There are exhibits that have been sealed in various ways.

Before entering the middle of the bookcase, Rin Shiraishi was signaled by Ichiro Nishihei to put on protective clothing and white gloves.

Misato Shimoshima behind the scenes did the same.

Volume 160: Chapter 9 [Selling Leg Wife Incident] (Rewards added 12/[-])

"These things are all kinds of files and related evidence collected by the special class over the years. Basically, there is a supernatural event hidden behind each of them. Under normal circumstances, it is rarely opened to the public. However, Miss Lin, your situation It's special, so it's okay to come in and watch it.

But you still have to wear strict protective clothing to ensure that these materials are not damaged, please forgive me. "

Ichiro Nishihei explained a few words, and then got to the point: "Besides, before you came here, Miss Rin, I had someone screen and sort out all the materials related to the batch of files that Misato gave you last time. , are put here, please try your best to try.

Regardless of the outcome, I would like to thank you in advance on behalf of the Special Section and the people of Tokyo, and it would be the best if we could find clues to the murderers behind these unsolved cases. "

"Department Chief Xiping is too polite."

Shiraishi smiled and nodded, but couldn't help but think of another thing——

The Kumamoto incident at Otowa Academy should be considered an unsolved case, right?

So, is there anything about him in these evidences?

Kumamoto's body has not been touched at all, and it is quite troublesome to collect evidence. If he uses the [circle light technique] to hunt down the murderer, and finally finds himself out... that would be interesting.

With this thought in mind, Rin Shiraishi looked around carefully, especially the labels on the table where the evidence was piled up, and he was relieved after confirming that there was nothing related to Kumamoto.Thinking about the low-end cases like the latter, they are not qualified to be put together with these "human skin tattoo incidents" and "foot-selling women" and other cases that are known to be very vicious at first glance.

"Look at this first."

Shiraishi Rin pulled out a thick file from the side, and then glanced at the title above:

【Bunkyo Ward Leg Woman Selling Event】

Shiraishi Rin had already seen this incident last time, but what he saw at that time was not as detailed as what was in the archives.From the time and place of each crime, to the oral transcripts of victims, family members, witnesses, etc., everything is available.The situation is actually not complicated, that is to say, there is an old woman with a large leather bag on her body who always haunts some small alleys and asks people walking at night "Do you need feet?"

If the answer is "no need", then the old woman will cut off the victim's feet and put them in her leather bag.

If the answer is "need", the old woman will take out a pair of feet from the leather bag and forcefully place them on the respondent.

In short, no matter what you say, it's useless. This thing is purely the kind of monster that touches porcelain, and it is similar to another urban legend that has been widely spread.

Unless you can kill it directly, as long as you encounter a footwoman, you will definitely have your feet cut off.

In terms of strength, the footwoman is not very strong, or the special class does not know its specific strength, only know that it is very powerful, it can cut off human legs from the bones with one knife, and it is also good at playing Needlework can complete a "double foot transplant operation" in a moment.But this thing's behavior is very cautious, it will rarely appear in front of multiple individuals, and it has never attacked an exorcist with spiritual power.

The special class tried to catch it with bait, but it didn't work, so they let this guy get away with it until now.

However, in the past two years, I haven't heard much about its haunting, and it may have left Tokyo.

As for the evidence left behind in the case of selling foot-wives...

"These feet were taken from one of the victims, he was the only one who survived the encounter with the footwoman, there were two other people who answered 'need' but both died ..."

Nishihei Ichiro explained.

Those who answered "no need" counted as one, and all died.Because this kind of broken foot injury is a fatal injury, whether it is bleeding, broken bones, or wound inflammation caused by germs, it is enough to kill a person; and the person who answers "need" has a slight possibility of surviving.But because the transplantation of the foot-wives is actually to insert the feet in the leather bag directly into the flesh and blood of the respondent, and then randomly sew them together with very thick fishing line, so infection and inflammation are inevitable.

Except for what Nishihei Ichiro said and this survivor, none of the others survived.

Therefore, the "evidence" collected by the special class and placed here is a pair of feet that have been refrigerated, and some skin slices taken from the feet.

"All right……"

Shiraishi Rin exhaled lightly, suppressing the nausea.

Then he asked Nishihei Ichiro for another pair of white gloves and a mask, and put them on for himself.

——No way, she really doesn't want to touch the skin of the feet that have been put away for many years... I don't know where the feet of the footwives are obtained. According to common sense, they should be self-sufficient It is to cut off the feet of those who answer "no need" and connect them to those who "need", but this cannot be explained, what will happen if the first person answers "need".

Is this a card bug?Or, whether it is necessary or not, the first person must cut off the foot to ensure that he has enough "activity funds" to complete the transplant operation?

unknown.

However, it should be known soon.

With Shiraishi Rin's [Circle Light Art] running, a blurry image gradually began to appear on the mirror.

click-

Shimoshima Misato immediately took pictures of the patterns on the mirror, and began to send them to colleagues looking at the computer for analysis and investigation.

"Can you see more detailed information, Xiao Lin?"

"Probably not..."

Bai Shilin said so on his mouth, but he increased the injection of spiritual power in his hands, trying to show more things on the mirror.

It stands to reason that the scope of [Circle Light Art] should be very large, at least including the whole of Tokyo is not a big problem.If it only shows a small area around the opponent, then the usability of this spell is too low. From the perspective of spell development, there is no reason why the Chinese practitioners who developed this spell could not see this defect.

Therefore, Shiraishi Rin can only attribute the reason to her own lack of spiritual power, but it is a pity that the second [Peach Tree Demon Sap] has not been found in the system mall for a long time, otherwise she must have exchanged it at the first time...

The picture in the mirror is a little bit more, it looks like a small alley, there are no obvious features, only a few blurred writings appear in the corner of the picture, which seems to be something like neon lights.

This small piece of neon light was regarded as the focus of the investigation.

Volume 161: Chapter [-] Is there such a thing?

While Shimoshima Misato and others were in action, Shiraishi Rin turned to the side, and took out several other files to look at.

After waiting for more than an hour, the police officers from the special section finally confirmed several suspicious locations:

"This light sign should be the sign of a hotel. We searched all the hotels in the 23 wards of Tokyo, and there were 47 hotels with these two consecutive words in their names. We removed the ones that obviously did not meet the requirements, and then screened the nearby terrain. , and finally determined that there is an alley near the nine hotels, and it may take some more on-site investigations to determine whether it is one of the nine hotels.

Then we... start searching this morning? "

Misato Shimoshima looked at Ichiro Nishihei.

The latter looked at Shiraishi Rin again, as if he wanted to hear her opinion.

(Look at what I am doing, do I have to do this matter, and I have to send the Buddha to the west when I co-author it?)

Bai Shilin muttered a few words in his heart, but there was no special expression on his face, but nodded: "Yes."

[Trigger special task]

[Do you need feet: Legend has it that in the eastern part of Tokyo, there is an old woman carrying a large leather bag who often asks people a strange question.You decide to investigate the incident]

When the prompt triggered by this task came out, Shiraishi Rin breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from past experience, all the missions released by the system are targeted. Since they can be triggered, it means that the location of the "leg saleswoman" is probably in the nine suspicious locations searched by Misato Shimoshima. It is even possible to meet them as soon as you go out later.Considering that the people from Sensoji Temple did not come this time, she may have to bear the main force of repelling the "leg women".

"This old hag...shouldn't be a very powerful guy, right?"

Cutting off the legs of an ordinary person is extremely easy for a ghost with a little ability, and it is impossible to analyze its strength from this point alone.

But judging from the fact that the targets chosen by the foot-sellers are all ordinary people, this guy is definitely not a big monster who can stand on the stage.

Another piece of evidence to support this judgment is that the foot-selling woman has no affiliation with several large-scale monster organizations in Tokyo.

After the Inugami incident, Rin Shiraishi specifically asked Misato Shimoshima for advice once, and gained some understanding of this aspect——

With ghosts and monsters everywhere, Tokyo can maintain such a relatively peaceful situation without a large-scale collapse. Even many ordinary people have only a half-knowledge of the existence of supernatural events. There is a reason for this situation.

Because those organized powerful monsters were basically "recruited".

To be precise, it was the human side and the ghost side who reached some kind of peace agreement after finding that neither of them could wipe out the other.Without touching the bottom line, the two parties will even cooperate moderately in some incidents.For example, in the last Inugami incident, the Special Section tried to ask the ghosts in Tokyo to investigate the whereabouts of Inugami.

But if it's not just providing information, but also dispatching manpower to assist the special class's retreat operation, then whether to accept it depends on the mood of the ghost side.Usually there is no play.

By the way, there are actually two groups of ghosts in Japan.

The first wave is from the line in Tokyo, and the leader is Momiji, a demon girl from Mount Togakushi.

The other group is located in Oeyama, but it has been destroyed in the Heian period. Now the local snakes in the Kansai area are the tengu clan headed by the big tengu.There are also two more famous snakes, Yamata no Orochi and Nine tails. The former has disappeared in ancient times. I don’t know if it was really killed by the Susanoo in the myth, or it was caught in the depths of a certain sea area. fell into a deep sleep, and the latter is a lone ranger who walks alone, so he has been silent for many years without making any noise...

Closer to home.

Although he made a general judgment on the strength of the footwoman through objective conditions, Shiraishi Rin did not take it lightly, but became vigilant at 12 points, followed Nishihei Ichiro and others to leave the police station, and then went to the previous investigation. Drove to several suspicious places.

Most of the 9 suspicious locations are concentrated in Bunkyo District and the nearby Arakawa District, Sumida District, and Itabashi District, and the distance from the police station is not too far.

So there is no need to detour, just make a big circle along these districts on the east side of Tokyo.

For this distance, it takes about two or three hours to simply run down.

But if you stop to check every place you pass by, it will take a long time. The day Shiraishi Rin reserved for herself may not be enough.

So, on the way, Shiraishi Rin chatted with the head of the Xiping department, and slowly turned the topic to the question he had planned for a long time:

"By the way, Dean Xiping, I have seen some videos on the Internet before, which were taken by ghost lovers, such as Inunaki Village, Sendagaya Tunnel... those should be places where ghosts really exist , isn't it banned by the special class like Xiaobailou?"

This question actually appeared in Shiraishi Rin's mind a long time ago.
