I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 48 [Area Unlock Mission: Late Night Call] (Please Read!)

"Before asking others questions, it's better to state your name first."

Kurosaki Akira snorted and crossed his arms across his chest. Judging from his expression, he looked like a bad boy.

Uesugi Tetsu opened his mouth to say his name, and then saw the boy's expression gradually twisted, his eyes widened exaggeratedly,

"——Are you the genius that Nanjo mentioned, a once-in-a-millennium genius?"

what?
Genius? Me?
Uesugi Tetsu was completely confused.

"Since you are the Uesugi Tetsu, there is no harm in telling you this little bit of news."

After coughing twice, Kurosaki Akira retracted his expression of shock and disbelief, but just when he was about to speak, a "dong dong dong" sound echoed from the mirror next to him.

Uesugi Tetsu rolled his pupils vigilantly, jumped off the hospital bed, blocked Kitano Runa behind him, and vaguely made the gesture of drawing his sword.

Is Kitano-san's physique really that strong?

Bai Prajna had just left, and another one appeared from the mirror right after? After the first wave, wouldn't I have to worry about encountering ghosts every day...

"Oh, I forgot to mention that."

Kurosaki Akira tapped the mirror with his fingers, and a figure dressed in white, with blurred features and disheveled hair, emerged. "Let me introduce you. This is my Shikigami. I bow right."

God formula?

Bowing to the right seems to be a very famous strange story on the forum.

Uesugi Che stopped his action and looked at the "right bow" that gave his skin a faint tingling sensation, and two and a half stars appeared above his head.

As expected of a Yin-Yang Element, any of its Shikigami are above two stars.

Then, he saw You Jue bowed and whispered something in Kurosaki Akira's ear, causing the boy to look at Kitano Runa: "Hey, big idiot, your mother's condition has stabilized. She will be transferred to the general ward soon. She just needs to rest for a few days."

Uesugi Tetsu: "Her name is Kitano Runa."

"Huh?" Kurosaki Akira raised an eyebrow. "I don't care to call her Kitano, Ru, or Na. An ordinary person with some exorcism tools dares to confront a strange story. What kind of idiot is that?"

Isn't this all memorized? What's this new era alternative tsundere thing?

Uesugi Tetsu thought about it again and found that what he said was absolutely right, so he agreed: "It seems to make sense."

Kitano Runa laughed awkwardly, as she was too embarrassed to refute a stranger's words.

"Regarding the Nanjo incident you just mentioned, Uesugi-kun, I can only tell you that they went to wipe out the Friendship Club's headquarters. Judging by the time, it's probably over."

Kurosaki Akira's face was filled with displeasure: "Come to think of it, I was originally here to collect some merits, but after this idiot incident, I had no choice but to rush over."

The headquarters of the Friendship Club?

Uesugi Tetsu was stunned: "Is this true?"

The huge shadow that had been bothering him and Lilizi was actually so easily destroyed by the Special Affairs Department?

It seems that Aibieli is behind the club. Will she watch this happen?
wrong.

Uesugi Tetsu narrowed his eyes - the Kurosaki Akira in front of him didn't look like he knew the news of Ai's separation.

"What good would it do me to lie to you?" Kurosaki Akira waved his hand dismissively. "This was originally Nanjo's job, and he was just playing it safe at the last minute."

"There are many similar things in Tokyo."

Judging from his expression, he doesn't take the Friendship Club seriously at all.

"If it's so easy, why not destroy it earlier?"

Uesugi Tetsu frowned.

Kurosaki Akira scoffed. "So, the rats in your house are easy to kill, but are they that easy to find?"

The boy glanced at his watch and said, "If everything is ok, I'll leave first."

Uesugi Tetsu pondered and nodded slowly: "I understand, thank you for clearing up my confusion."

——For the specific situation, I’d better wait until I meet Nanjo-san and ask her.

"It's just a small thing. No thanks."

Kurosaki Akira put his hands in his pockets, grinned at him, and said expectantly: "I hope you can give me a surprise when we meet next time, Mr. Genius."

After saying that, he slammed the door and walked out, humming a powerful song from the Showa era. Right Bow also slowly bowed to the right and disappeared into the mirror again. After Kurosaki Akira disappeared, Kitano Runa asked, "Uesugi-san, what were you talking about just now?"

Uesugi Tetsu pondered, then shook his head and said exactly the same words as Nanjo Aimi at that time,
“Ordinary people shouldn’t be exposed to this.”

Even though Kitano Runa has a special physique, it is better for her to have less contact with the other side of the world for the time being.

Kitano Runa smacked her lips and said, "Tsk, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I'll ask Mafuyu-san later."

Uesugi Tetsu ignored her. It didn't matter if Shizuma Manfuyu was willing to tell her these things. His warning was simply out of kindness because the other party was Ririko's best friend.

——Kitano Runa is different from him and Ririko. She is an ordinary person who is truly powerless. If he had come a step later today, Kitano Runa would have been buried in the ground now.

But Uesugi Tetsu won’t care about most things, because he is not Kitano Runa’s father.

And because of Kurosaki Akira's intervention, after a long period of thinking, Uesugi Tetsu finally made the final decision among the five rewards.

[You have chosen Reward 2, Reward 5! ]

That’s right, in the end, Uesugi Tetsu decided to choose props related to his walking identity first.

As for reducing skill proficiency, this can be put aside for now.

After all, unlike the walking status that cannot be promoted by other means, the level of skills can be raised through hard work.

Uesugi Tetsu, the thing he has the most is liver!

[Rewards are being distributed...]

[You have obtained the "Walking" identity mission item - Broken Walking Token (special item)]

[Broken Walking Token (Special Item)]

[Quality: None]

[Effect: None]

[——Old people and old things, don’t talk about them.]

【Your identity mission has been released! 】

[“Walking” Status Promotion Mission: Deliver the “Broken Walking Token” to the “Nameless Swordsman” in Edo Castle. Once the nameless swordsman accepts the token, the mission will be completed.]

[It has been detected that the quality of your demon incarnation, Laughing Prajna, has not reached "rare", and the reward is temporarily stored.]

[Once the quality of your demon incarnation, Laughing Prajna, reaches "Rare", rewards will be issued as usual.]

A very humane reward - Uesugi Tetsu was afraid that the quality improvement of Laughing Prajna would cause visible effects, so he did not use the mask of White Prajna in the hospital for the time being.

"Kitano-san, how about we..."

The prompt that popped up again in front of him interrupted Uesugi Tetsu's words and made him give up the idea of "traveling with Kitano Runa to see if he can encounter the moving soul ash again."

[Because you have completed all the tasks in the current area "Arakawa Haunted Village", the "Area Unlock Task" has been released! ]

[Region Unlock Mission: Late Night Call]

Unlocking Conditions: Tonight at 22:20 PM, take a train from any subway station in Tokyo to the final stop, transfer to the starting point, and finally take the last train to "Kiragi Platform" to complete the area unlocking mission.

Kisaragi Station?

Uesugi Tetsu laughed: "This is truly a name that is so famous that it is known everywhere..."

"What did you say, Uesugi-san?" asked Kitano Runa.

"No, nothing." Uesugi Tetsu shook his head. "I'm leaving first. Kitano-san, remember to go back over there with the Special Affairs Office staff outside. Don't go alone again."

Kitano Runa clenched her fists: "I won't give up after a failure!"

"That's good."

Uesugi Tetsu smiled and found that as long as he got a little familiar with her, the original atmosphere of social anxiety completely disappeared... Is this one of the characteristics of a otaku?
I don't quite understand.

Uesugi Che pushed the door open and walked out. He wanted to find a secluded and deserted place to improve the quality of Laughing Prajna.

Then take the last train to the world tonight and see the legendary Ruyue Station.
