I'm a thankful fox in Tokyo

Chapter 371 It’s going to rain
"Just park here." Higashino Yu pointed to a closed convenience store in Kyonan Town.

"Aren't you going to drive a little further forward?" Horikawa Hidetsugu wondered.

Dong Yeyu's eyes fell on the swirling dark clouds on the top of Saw Mountain in the distance, which seemed to be about to collapse, and he shook his head: "It's too dangerous to go any further."

After observing for a moment, Horikawa Hideji felt like something was pressing on his heart, making his chest feel stuffy. He swallowed, did not dare to ask any more questions, and quickly stopped the car.

Higashino Yu packed up his things and got out of the car. This place was still quite a distance away from the Saw Mountain Road where demons were wreaking havoc, but the residents of the town had almost all been evacuated.

If we talk about what is good about island countries, it is that they are probably one of the best in the world in terms of emergency evacuation in the event of natural disasters and various sudden dangers.

After all, this area has always been plagued by disasters, either tsunamis or earthquakes, and if people had a lack of safety awareness, a large number of people would have died.

However, in recent years, both the firefighters and the police here have been quite slack. They did a good job in emergency evacuation, but the post-disaster rescue was a piece of shit. I don't know if it has something to do with the social atmosphere on this island country.

Dong Yeyu looked back at the driver and nodded: "Please be careful on the way back, Mr. Horikawa."

"You should take care of yourself too, Mr. Dongye. When you want to go back, call the number on the business card and I will pick you up."

Hidetsugu Horikawa held the steering wheel with both hands as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw, and bowed and nodded on the steering wheel as if he was kowtowing. He didn't want to stay here any longer. After he finished speaking, he turned the car around, turned on the high beam, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

In this world full of monsters and demons, being timid is not a bad quality.

Dong Ye Yu thought to himself, however, it was a bit premature to use the high beam. He hoped that he would switch to low beam when he met the car.

It was still less than ten o'clock in the morning, but the sky in Kyonan Town had already become completely dark. The light was dim, as if a total solar eclipse had occurred. It looked a bit like a typhoon had passed through, and the sound of the wind like the wailing of ghosts could be heard everywhere in the streets of the town.

However, for a fox with the cultivation level of Dongye Yu, there is no difference between day and night, it is just a change of color, and it is cool when the wind blows.

He took out the Sumime Ichimonji Nagamitsu from the sword bag and hung it around his waist, then started running at full speed along the road towards Saw Mountain with the backpack on his back.

The surrounding residential buildings were not too old, and the facilities and lines were very complete. Some shops and supermarkets had not even had time to close. It was obvious that Junan Town was quite prosperous in the past - at least more prosperous than the southwestern hometown town when he was on Blue Star.

Dong Yeyu looked inside a supermarket when he passed by it. The lights were on as if it was open for business, and there were all kinds of goods on display, but there was no one there.

It feels like the end of the world, or a deserted city after a biohazard.

If I were in the game now, I would even like to explore and maybe find Nuka-Cola or something.

The road section at the foot of Saw Mountain,
"Senior Okawa, tell me, what's going on up there?"

A young policeman crouched beside the police car, his right hand on the gun bag at his waist, looking towards the mountain with some curiosity.

From time to time, the sound of women crying could be heard, and occasionally there would be lightning and thunder, and even the sound of flames and rifle fire. A helicopter formation had arrived before, but they left quickly.

Are you at war?

Then why is there the sound of a woman crying?
Or maybe they were hunting down some extremely vicious fugitives? But what kind of fugitives did the army need to hunt down, and how could a person's voice be heard so far?

The middle-aged policeman next to him was sitting on the ground, leaning against the tire and smoking. Hearing what he said, he glanced at the not-so-towering Saw Mountain behind him.

He took a breath, and the smoldering tobacco burst into orange sparks. "Hase-kun, our duty is to guard this section of the road to prevent anyone from breaking in without evacuating. Other things are not something we should know. The more you know about some things, the more dangerous it is."

".I understand." The young policeman was still curious.

Last night, he was lying on the bed playing with his phone after work when he was urgently called up. He didn't say what happened, but he was sent here with his senior to set up a cordon. A police car was parked across the road as a barrier, as if they were catching some important fugitive. Just as he was thinking, he suddenly caught a fast-approaching figure in his peripheral vision, "What is that?!"

Animals? Not really.

The middle-aged policeman heard the sound and looked over. He frowned immediately, took the gun out of the holster, turned on the safety, aimed, and in his other hand held a high-powered flashlight close to the pistol, shining the beam of light at the quickly approaching shadow.

"Please stop moving forward immediately!"

collapse?

Why did you pull out your gun when there was a landslide? And isn't it a bit funny to talk to an animal?

The young policeman felt increasingly strange, but fearing being blamed, he followed suit and raised his gun to warn others.

When Dong Yeyu saw the police setting up a checkpoint, he slowed down.

The two policemen then saw who was coming.

people? !

The young policeman swallowed his saliva. Can a human run that fast? Even an Olympic sprint champion can't run that fast, right?
But this young man is really good-looking.
Even the middle-aged policeman was stunned for two seconds before reacting, and then asked seriously: "Who are you? Where are you from? The residents in the surrounding area have been evacuated, why don't you follow them?"

Dong Ye Yu didn't waste time talking to them and took out his demon hunter certificate: "I am a demon hunter recruited by the Ministry of Religion, Culture, and Science."

"Exorcist?"

The young policeman's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and the flashlight beam unconsciously swept across the ivory-white sword on the other's waist.

The dark green knot wrapped around the hilt of the sword was tinged with dark red, and it smelled of rust in the humid air before the rain.

Before, many people went up the mountain, all wearing Wu clothing and carrying swords, which looked very strange.

However, there were police officers and the special operations team of the Ministry of Religion, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology accompanying him, so even though they had doubts in their hearts, they did not ask too many questions.

If they are all demon hunters, then the one on the mountain is a demon?
Thinking about the abnormal weather, they suddenly felt the temperature around them drop by several degrees and quickly let them go.

"Are the people on the mountain very powerful?" the young policeman took the opportunity to ask.

Dong Yeyu nodded solemnly: "Don't underestimate them. Many demon hunters have been killed. You two are very brave to stay here, but if you are attacked by demons, run as fast as you can."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only the young policeman's face turned green, but the middle-aged policeman's face also turned ashen.

Dong Ye Yu patted the two men's shoulders, held the long sword at his waist and continued to run into the mountains. His figure gradually faded into the darkness until he disappeared.

"Senior Okawa, do we, do we still need to stay here?" the young policeman asked with a pale face.

The middle-aged policeman was silent for a long time, and only said: "I just saw the ID of Mr. Dongye, he is sixteen years old."

As he spoke, he took out two bottles of beer from the cab, handed one to the junior, and sat on the hood of the car. He opened the pull ring with a click, and bubbles kept exploding in the bottle. The bursting foam reflected the flashing lightning.

"It's going to rain, get in the car."
