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

This situation is rather special.

If it's within Chiba Prefecture, Yukinoshita Company has its own construction team and doesn't need to subcontract to outsiders.

However, after communicating with several officials in Kyoto City, one of the conditions for Yukinoshita to extend its reach into Kyoto City was that it must hire a local construction team from Kyoto City.

Yang Nai believed that the terms he offered to the construction team this time were much more generous than those for ordinary projects.

It now seems that the other party did not intend to raise the price, but rather genuinely did not want to continue the business for some reason.

Could it be that there's something strange about this building?

Yang Nai shook his head, thinking, "How could this be?"

I am a science student and a staunch materialist.

Someone is definitely deliberately causing trouble.

Thinking of her mother's instructions before she left, Yang Nai's eyes flickered a few times. Looking at the dilapidated unfinished building in front of her, she slowly spoke.

"In that case, let's make a bet."

"bet?"

Yang pointed to the unfinished building and said, word by word.

"If I go in alone, go up to the top floor, and if nothing happens and I come out unharmed, you can resume construction tomorrow... no, immediately, is that alright?"

"this..."

"That's my bottom line."

Yang Nai did not back down at all, and his attitude was very tough.

"Either accept these conditions, or pay the penalty for breach of contract. Although this is not Chiba Prefecture, my father has a few influential friends in Kyoto City."

The construction team leaders looked at each other, but in the end, they were all overwhelmed by the exorbitant penalty for breach of contract.

"Miss Yukinoshita, please be careful."

In fact, they also harbored a sliver of hope.

What if the series of accidents a while ago were just a coincidence?

The terms offered by Yukinoshita's family are so generous; with so much money, who wouldn't want to make money?

"Then it's settled."

After saying this, Yang Nai stepped into the unfinished building without any hesitation.

As soon as she entered the room, she could feel a strange, eerie wind blowing past her.

"Humph."

Yang Nai gave a soft hum and calmly stepped into the stairwell, showing absolutely no fear.

If there's one thing she learned from being born into the Yukinoshita family, it's only one thing.

Responsibility must be borne by someone.

Running away is useless.

No one can help you; you can only rely on yourself.

Yang Nai had understood this principle long ago.

Even if you are nervous, scared, or unwilling.

Even though my legs felt weak and my heart was clenched.

All she could do, and all she should do as the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family, was to keep moving forward.

There are no other options.

Yang's shoulders, beneath his black suit jacket, trembled slightly.

Even so, she still climbed step by step from the stairwell to the upper floors of the building.

"Is this... twenty-three, or twenty-four?"

Yang muttered to himself softly, the only sounds he could hear were his own breathing and footsteps.

here...

Isn't it a little too quiet?

Just as Yang Nai was thinking this, she suddenly heard something colliding outside the stairwell, as well as an indescribable, strange sound, as if something was being squeezed.

"Someone?"

Yang Nai's pupils contracted in surprise, but then he let out a long sigh of relief.

The eerie, quiet, and oppressive atmosphere, combined with the recent accidents, made walking alone in the dimly lit stairwell a true test of one's mental fortitude.

But if it were someone with ill intentions, Yang wouldn't be too worried.

Back in the day, she practiced Aikido with her younger sister, Yukino.

Three or five ordinary men couldn't get close to her.

not to mention...

Yang then pulled out a dark rubber rod from his pocket.

With this stun gun in hand, what is there to fear from criminals?

Yang slowed his pace and walked out of the stairwell into a single-level room.

at this time.

"Paji."

Hearing the sound beneath her feet and feeling the sticky sensation from the soles of her shoes, Yang Nai frowned slightly and unconsciously looked down at the ground.

Through the faint reddish moonlight shining through the window, her pupils dilated in surprise when she finally saw the ground clearly.

"This, this is!?"

The cement ground was splattered with dark red blood.

Blood and dust congealed together, forming an incredibly viscous substance that emitted a nauseating odor.

When Yang Nai raised his head again, he saw, under the moonlight, a huge monster, shaped like a python, that had appeared not far in front of him at some point.

The monster's vertical eyes revealed two rows of chilling teeth.

Meanwhile, one after another, terrifying monsters of various shapes and sizes stood in a deathly silent line, each willingly offering itself up to be seen by the monster's vertical eye.

The squeezing sound she had just heard was the sound of the flesh and the eyeball slowly merging together after the vertical-eyed monster had bitten the other monsters to pieces.

Looking at this bizarre and terrifying scene, Yang felt as if the blood in his body had stopped flowing at that moment.

"call..."

The serpentine monster's enormous eyeballs shifted slightly.

Those emotionless eyes were fixed intently on Yang Nai.

The evil spirits, which had been lined up in a long row, all turned their heads.

They remained silent, slowly approaching Yang Nai.

"No, don't come over."

Yang pressed the button on the stun gun, and a blinding flash of electricity shot from the tip of the rubber rod.

But for evil spirits, this has absolutely no deterrent effect.

If it were a palm-sized thunderbolt, they might be a little more wary.

But a rubber stun gun?

Give me a break.

Even in the face of such a terrifying sight, Yang Nai simply leaned against the wall, her body trembling slightly, without losing her composure.

She could even hold the stun gun in her hand.

"Am I... going to die here?"

Looking at the numerous evil spirits surrounding him, Yang Nai's lips curled into a bitter smile.

This is meaningless; it's a life I've been living all along, a facade...

Is this how it ends so hastily?

"no, do not want..."

Yang Nai collapsed to the ground, her beautiful eyes filled with deep despair.

Just then, footsteps came from inside the stairwell.

"There seem to be more evil spirits."

After that calm girl's voice rang out, it was followed by a voice with a hint of laughter, as if she were enjoying a vacation, and even revealed a strange sense of anticipation.

"Yes, it needs to be resolved as soon as possible."

As the conversation began, Yoruhoshi and Yotsuya Miko, who was holding a long sword, slowly walked in, much to Yang Nai's astonishment.

How did the long sword end up on the tram?

Very simple.

Ye Xing made Ya Chi swallow the long sword, only spitting it out when they got off the tram.

Anyway, eight feet is long enough, and it can also be used as a hidden suitcase.

This is what it means to develop all the value of something.

"You, who are you?"

Yotsuya Miko glanced at Yukinoshita Haruno, who was leaning against the wall, and carefully examined her beautiful face. Her brows furrowed slightly, and a sense of familiarity welled up in her heart.

Of course, she knew that now was not the time to ask about the other party's identity.

“Since someone unexpectedly got involved, the plan needs to be changed. I'll protect her.”

"Well, yes."
