In this crossover anime, I fight against the supernatural in my everyday world.

"Can you see it?"

"Can you see it?"

...

After entering the dark and narrow stairwell, the evil spirits did not retreat but followed.

Every now and then, out of the corner of her eye, Yotsuya Miko would catch glimpses of strands of jet-black, dripping hair, or strangely shaped, pale, twisted fingers flashing past her.

In the quiet stairwell, apart from the incessant questioning of the evil spirits, only the footsteps of her and Ye Xing could be heard. The scene of hundreds of evil spirits crowding together and following behind them intertwined, forming a terrifying spectacle like a scroll painting of hell.

027 You still need to eat when you should.

The sound of her heartbeat filled Yotsuya Miko's ears, making it difficult for her to even hear the words Yohoshi had spoken with a light laugh.

“This place was originally intended to be converted into an office building, but two weeks ago, a series of accidents occurred, and many members of the construction team died in inexplicable and bizarre ways, which forced the project to be temporarily suspended.”

When Ye Xing spoke, his voice was tinged with laughter, his steps were steady, and he even had his usual frivolous and lazy smile on his face.

Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be on a pleasant and relaxing spring outing.

But when the view shifts to Miko Yotsuya's face, it's a completely different story.

At this moment, Miko Yotsuya was drenched in sweat and could not even breathe through her nose. She could only slightly open her lips and pant incessantly, her golden pupils dilated.

In her entire life, she had never seen a place like this unfinished building, teeming with so many evil spirits.

If hell truly exists in this world, it probably wouldn't be much different.

The key point is that Yotsuya Miko knows that ordinary evil spirits and ghosts, as soon as they sense Yohoshi's aura, will flee quickly, just like animals encountering their natural enemy, based on the instinctive fear in their blood.

However, these hundreds of evil spirits, while not engaging in any aggressive behavior, continued to follow behind the two.

What does this mean?

This shows that their strength is on a completely different level from that of ordinary evil spirits!

The black aura emanating from the hundreds of evil spirits had almost solidified, making it difficult for Yotsuya Miko to see the road ahead.

"No, no, no."

"It's all over, it's all over, it's all over."

"What to do, what to do, what to do..."

Miko Yotsuya kept repeating this to herself, feeling that her nerves were nearing their limit.

Contrary to her tear-filled, fear-ridden eyes, her face remained calm and expressionless.

Such a contrast does indeed seem rather acrimonious.

"arrive."

After what seemed like centuries to Yotsuya Miko, Yohoshi finally stopped in front of a door.

"Let's eat here."

Upon hearing these words and feeling the warmth in her arms, Yotsuya Miko finally remembered what had happened before entering the building, and her expression instantly turned somewhat unpleasant.

eat?

Yeah, we still have to eat bento boxes.

Wait a moment.

Could it be that Ye Xing means for him to eat the bento box in his arms while being watched by hundreds of evil spirits?

Is this something a human can do?

"Oh dear, the door is locked."

Hearing this, Yotsuya Miko breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied.

"Then how about today..."

Fortunately, I was prepared.

Ye Xing smiled, took out a bent wire from his pocket, bent down slightly, and inserted it into the door lock.

Yotsuya Miko was completely bewildered by his actions.

Wow, is Night Star really that multi-talented?

He can even pick locks?

She really wanted to ask the other person if unlocking the door without permission was illegal.

But then I thought about it again, and realized that in this context, the question seemed a bit naive and foolish, so I decided to keep quiet.

"OK, it's open."

Less than five seconds later, Ye Xing finished picking the lock and entered the room with Jian Zi.

The dusty cement floor was completely empty except for a few load-bearing pillars; it was just a completely bare, flat floor.

In the distance, amidst the darkness shrouded in countless black mists, Yotsuya Miko once again saw the "gate" belonging to this area.

The difference is that.

The door she had seen in the alley last time was only slightly ajar, half-closed.

The door we saw this time was half open.

It was equally deep and twisted, as if it wanted to suck in one's gaze, a pure darkness like a black hole.

"Let's eat first."

Ye Xing didn't care about the dust on the ground. He sat down on the ground, opened the lunchbox, looked down at it, and frowned slightly.

"What kind of crap are you selling? This is just one meal, and you're charging me thirty yuan for it? That's outrageous."

Then, he looked at Yotsuya Miko, who was still standing there at a loss, and chuckled.

"Jianzi, please have a seat."

If Jianzi hadn't known that Yexing was a psychic like herself, she probably would have thought that Yexing was completely blind to evil spirits just by looking at her.

That's not right either.

Even ordinary people who can't see evil spirits at all can at least feel the eerie atmosphere in this unfinished building, right?

Judging from Ye Xing's appearance, Jian Zi actually felt that he seemed to be enjoying this atmosphere.

Yotsuya Miko suppressed the panic in her heart that made her want to escape immediately, straightened her skirt, took out a few pieces of paper from her bag and placed them on the ground before slowly sitting down.

The moment she opened the lunchbox, she was startled again.

"Chopsticks...chopsticks?"

"What, you don't know how to use chopsticks?"

"No, that's not it."

"That's good, let's eat quickly."

Yotsuya Miko took a deep breath, her right hand trembling slightly as she picked up the chopsticks.

She tried to pick up a piece of fish ball from the bento box, but because she was so nervous, her hands kept shaking and she couldn't manage it.

"Can you...see me?"

This unusual behavior immediately attracted the attention of the onlookers, the evil spirits.

A dark purple spirit with long, flowing black hair and blood-red pupils approached Miko's face.

His bloodshot pupils, constantly shifting, were fixed on her profile.

"Can you...see me?"

Yotsuya was completely numb.

How can anyone eat this?!

Just then, from the dark corner, a long, blackish-green tongue covered with a thick coating, looking nauseating, suddenly emerged and quickly licked the surface of her bento box.

The licking motion was so meticulous, it was almost as if they were polishing the bento box.

Immediately afterwards, Long Tongue made the exact same gesture toward the bento box that Night Star was holding.

"vomit..."

Yotsuya Miko felt like she was about to throw up.

Although evil spirits cannot touch objects in the real world.

But who could possibly eat after watching that long, dark green tongue meticulously lick their own bento box?!

“It tastes pretty good.”

Amidst Yotsuya Miko's shocked, incredulous, and horrified gaze, Yosei didn't even flinch. He simply picked up a fish ball, put it in his mouth, chewed it carefully, and nodded.

"The taste is good, but it's not worth thirty. Sure enough, students are easy to fool."

Yotsuya Miko was stunned.

How can you even eat this?

Yotsuya was filled with respect upon seeing the child.

028 The Teachings of a Professional Exorcist

Despite her respect, Yotsuya Miko didn't forget that she herself faced the same problem.

How to do?

To eat, or not to eat?

Yotsuya Miko suppressed her nausea, gritted her teeth, and slowly picked up a fish ball from the bento box with her chopsticks.

Just then, the long tongue suddenly extended out from the shadows again, and with lightning speed, it reached for the fish ball she was picking up with her chopsticks.

"Eh!"

Despite maintaining a calm expression during the sudden attack, Yotsuya Miko's right hand trembled slightly.
