I am recycling settings in the anime

Fang Yi also knew what the other party meant. He was not yet at the stage where he should care about his age.

He's not some interstellar monster who keeps emphasizing that he's seventeen years old!

"Don't be so flustered. I know what you mean. I'm not old enough to be anxious yet. But Yotsuya Miko-san, what I said before wasn't a complete joke! I really did come here for Yotsuya Miko-san."

Fang Yi's words made Yotsuya Miko slightly stunned, and his serious expression made her feel a little heavy.

"Ms. Yotsuya Miko came to us and bought some exorcism tools that can help you deal with some vengeful spirits and evil spirits, but the energy contained in those tools is limited after all. Moreover, the number of evil spirits and vengeful spirits in this city has increased more and more recently. I'm afraid the exorcism tools you have are not enough. After all, Kotoko cares so much about you, so I want to stay by your side. One reason is that I can help you recover your energy at any time to prevent any accidents."

Fang Yi's words filled Yotsuya Miko's heart with a little warmth.

Although Manager Fang Yi does have a bad taste and likes to tease me, he always helps me a lot.

Especially regarding those evil spirits, it was really thanks to Manager Fang Yi last time.

All the little resentment Xu had towards the other party was swept away at this moment.

If Iwanaga Kotoko were here, she would definitely complain about this.

—Girl! That's why you're bullied by the owner because of your personality! You're a typical example of someone who's been sold out and still counting money for others!

"As for the other reason..."

As he spoke, Fang Yi's gaze shifted from Yotsuya Miko to Yurikawa Hana.

"I'm also investigating the reasons for the increase in evil spirits and vengeful spirits in this city, and Yurikawa-san, who works alongside Yotsuya Miko-san, could be of use. After all, Yurikawa-san has a very interesting physique!"

"That immense life force is the perfect delicacy for those evil spirits and vengeful spirits!"

A delicacy for evil spirits and vengeful spirits! Yotsuya Miko's expression suddenly changed, and her eyes fell on Xiaohua.

The hands that had been relaxed tensed up again.

Could it be that Xiaohua’s situation is actually more dangerous than his own?

Chapter 23: Yotsuya Miko-san, you don’t want Yurikawa-san to be in danger, do you?

"Mr. Fang Yi means that Xiaohua is likely to encounter some..."

Listening to Fang Yi's words, Yotsuya Miko's face showed deep worry, and her eyes fell on Xiaohua who was eating heartily over there from time to time. While the other party was not looking over here, she planned to find Fang Yi to ask him clearly.

Fang Yi had no intention of keeping the question in suspense, so he spoke directly.

"To ghosts, excessive vitality is like a candlelight in the darkness of night, causing them to subconsciously gravitate toward that direction. Weaker ones are like this, but stronger ones are even more aware of the immense benefits that candlelight can bring them. Furthermore, generally speaking, it's not just vengeful spirits and evil spirits that are attracted. Even ordinary spirits that generally don't harbor any ill will or resentment towards ordinary people are drawn to her vitality. Absorbing her vitality is extremely beneficial to these spirits. If they absorb it for a long time, they might be able to interfere with the living world at any time..."

Stroking his chin, Fang Yi began to think about what analogy he could use to make the other party understand better.

"For example, those vengeful spirits and evil spirits will usually ask if you can see them. If you answer, they will attack you. At least those spirits still follow the rules in this regard. But once they reach the point where they can freely interfere with the real world, they can ignore this rule and attack anyone they see, even causing destruction to the real world!"

"Also, Yurikawa-san's appetite... is also related to this constitution!"

Fang Yi looked at Xiao Hua in front of him and couldn't help but complain in his heart. This was simply not the appetite of a normal person.

However, Fang Yi also knew that the reason why this girl had such a big appetite was related to her physique.

"You should have seen it, this girl's appetite is simply not that of a normal person."

Hearing this, Yotsuya Miko couldn't help but nodded, recalling the other person's appearance when he was eating.

"I already had this appetite when we first met, but now I'm used to it."

"This appetite is also due to her physical constitution. As I said before, the vitality in her body has a special attraction to spirits, whether they are weak or strong. Because there are so many vengeful spirits and evil spirits in this area, even if she walks on the street, there are probably a few little ghosts silently lying on her body, sucking her vitality..."

In fact, when Fang Yi just came to this school, Fang Yi found that there were several small ghosts in the girl's drawer. If Fang Yi had not transformed himself into a human-shaped self-propelled air purifier to kindly send them to the west, those ghosts would probably still be following this girl. Although they are not harmful, they always give people a feeling that humans are worse off than ghosts!

Come to think of it, didn’t this girl also buy it from me... eh!

It looks like she bought a broom! Okay, I guess she put it at home!

Fang Yi thought of the items he had enchanted when he was full and had nothing to do, and his expression became a little subtle.

"And Yurikawa can quickly replenish her life energy by eating. This is because every day there are always a few little ghosts devouring Yurikawa's vitality. After all, even the smallest ghosts will reduce Yurikawa's vitality significantly after a day of sucking. This also indirectly increases Yurikawa's appetite, and she eats so much every day!"

"Is that really the case? Does that mean... Xiaohua has been haunted by ghosts all along?"

As she muttered to herself, a look of sympathy appeared on Yotsuya Miko's face.

"I can't help it. This physique always attracts some trouble! But there is also a good thing!"

"benefit?"

After hearing Fang Yi's words, Yotsuya Kenko was immediately filled with questions. Can such a physique be said to be beneficial?

"With such a strong vitality, there's basically no need to worry about him getting sick. This should make his parents feel at ease. He probably hasn't been to the hospital very often since he was little. But with this appetite, those from less well-off families probably can't afford it... Tsk tsk..."

Fang Yi's words, which sounded like envy or something else, almost made Shigu Jianzi stumble.

Is this what you care about, Fang Yi? While being invulnerable to illness is certainly enviable, and no one wants to be sick, compared to the side effects of being vulnerable to ghosts, she feels a more normal body is better. She already sees ghosts every day. If only she had Xiaohua's vitality...

Not only can I see ghosts every day, but I can also see them coming towards me...

Yotsuya Miko's body has begun to tremble. This is no longer a simple test of her acting skills and psychological endurance.

——This is going to push people towards collapse!

"But this is a good thing. From now on, whenever you find this girl suddenly catching a cold or having a fever, you can basically conclude that there is a relatively powerful ghost absorbing her vitality! A small ghost like that, even if it absorbs her vitality every day, is not enough to make her sick. The only ones who can make this girl sick are those evil spirits and vengeful spirits with relatively strong powers!"

Weak spirits will basically absorb it slowly, unlike powerful spirits who will take a big gulp in one breath.

It looked like he hadn't eaten for hundreds of years!

Of course, it is not impossible for weak ghosts to absorb energy in this way, but if they are the same as those powerful ghosts, they will probably be judged by this vitality as a malicious attack. This is also normal. For Xiaohua, a large-scale consumption of vitality will be life-threatening, so it is normal to be judged as malicious, and then the little ghost will be backfired by the vitality.

It was probably because he ate too much that he choked to death.

Although this metaphor is a bit strange, there is actually no big problem with it.

But this also means that this girl is a very troublesome type.

Because for this girl, there will be no small troubles, but once something happens, it will definitely be a big trouble!

At this moment, Yotsuya Miko felt that... her best friend seemed to be more prone to danger than herself!

However, what Yotsuya Miko didn't know was that if this life force could be utilized, things would be different.

At least in Fang Yi's opinion, once this girl's talent is fully exercised, it may not be inferior to the purifying power in his own body.

Stroking his chin, Fang Yi carefully looked at the vitality in the other person and muttered to himself.

"If those guys from the Hanakaiin family saw this, they would probably be unable to resist recruiting her! If this vitality is fully unleashed, even the modern Hanakaiin Hidemoto might not be able to match this girl!"

"I don't know who has greater talent, Xiu Yuan or the next generation who hasn't grown up yet?"

Although this girl looks very natural, this natural character may be better during cultivation.

Sometimes, the purer the existence, the faster its strength increases. Nature is also a kind of purity!

Think about the girl Hanakaiin Yuura. Wasn’t she a naturally confused girl in the original work?

In a sense, this girl is quite similar to Hanakaiin Yuura!

It seemed that he found this matter quite interesting, and a gleam of light flashed in Fang Yi's eyes.

If Iwanaga Kotoko were here, she would definitely complain about Fang Yi's intention to stir up trouble.

However, now Yotsuya Miko only hopes that her best friend can escape from this dangerous life.

"So, Fang Yi is looking for Xiao Hua because..."

"Hmm! As I said before, the life force in her is what those ghosts covet the most. Maybe we can use it to find the culprit who has caused so many evil spirits and vengeful spirits in this city!"

"Student Fang Yi is going to use Xiao Hua as bait!? Is this really not dangerous?"

"Yotani Miko-san, don't you still trust me? After all, you bought some tools from me."

"Hmm...that's right! Then, I'll leave Xiaohua to Fang Yi!"

Yotsuya Kenko nodded solemnly and spoke quickly.

However, Fang Yi's meaningful eyes immediately looked at Yotsuya Miko carefully, which made Yotsuya Miko couldn't help but shrink her body. She felt that Fang Yi's eyes were very bad, and he must be thinking about something very indecent!

"Student Fang Yi, what's that look in your eyes?"

"Protection is no problem, but after the previous rescue, plus the fact that I will probably be Yurikawa-san's bodyguard from now on, I have to say, you really aren't afraid that I will take advantage of the opportunity to do something terrible!"

"What's the big deal?"

"For example... Yotsuya Miko-san, you don't want Yurikawa-san to be in danger, do you?"

Yotsuya Miko: "???"

Student Fang Yi, you feel like something is wrong with you!

Chapter 24: At night? Damn owner, what did you do to Jianzi?

"Master, how's your rare time on campus? Have you managed to recapture the wonderful feeling you had back in the old days?"

Iwanaga Kotoko's teasing voice came to his ears. Fang Yi stood on the rooftop and took in the entire campus scenery below.

Relying on his communication skills and relationship with Yotsuya Miko, Fang Yi easily became familiar with Miko's best friend, although for Fang Yi, this was not the main reason for him to enter this school.

Compared to myself, perhaps the Huakaiyuan family would be more interested in a girl like Xiaohua!

The breeze on the rooftop gently caressed Fang Yi's cheeks, and his tense facial features relaxed a little.

Watching the students' activities below, a sense of nostalgia washed over him. However... Fang Yi still felt alienated from this world, no matter how close his conversation with Yotsuya Miko had just been...

Listening to Qinzi's teasing and concern, Fang Yi's mouth curled up slightly and his tone became much gentler.

"It's okay, but I've been away from campus for so long that I can't get that feeling back."

"Then the gym owner and I are really a perfect match. I can't completely return to the life of an ordinary human either, right?"

"Girl...are you in the store now? There seems to be some other people's voices over there."

With a doting smile on his lips, Fang Yi silently put the previous topic aside.

"It's the youkai's voices. I'm here to explain to them about the Predator and take care of some minor matters as well."

As he spoke, Fang Yi could hear some noisy sounds coming from his ears, such as a strange Onmyoji who suddenly appeared nearby, and some powerful Shikigami. Although he couldn't hear it clearly, Fang Yi guessed that it was probably related to Hanakaiin.

After all, when it comes to Onmyoji, it’s the Hanakaiin family who will be arriving here soon.

However, it is not impossible that other Onmyoji will appear here.

In short, one thing is certain, that is, this girl has started to get involved in dangerous things again!

Although this girl is no longer as weak in combat as she was at the beginning, but——

Can't you just let yourself feel a little more at ease? Fang Yi couldn't help but complain in his heart.

However, Qinzi obviously guessed what Fang Yi wanted to say and spoke first.

"Although I'm your subordinate, Master, please remember my original duties. My primary job is to handle matters between youkai and humans. Your work of cleaning up the 'predators' and retrieving the 'settings' is at most a side job. Since you don't have any plans before you leave, I'll naturally go back to my own work."

"Don't worry, Master, I won't put myself in danger!"

The last sentence made Fang Yi purse his lips. Many words he wanted to say turned into words of concern.

"If you need anything, just contact me and I'll be there right away."

"I won't be polite, please rest assured, Master!"

"Your unhesitating answer makes me think you called me just to get me to say this! And I don't doubt the truth of your words at all. After all, you're so experienced in this kind of thing!"

Fang Yi rolled his eyes. How could anyone answer so decisively like you?

"No way, and I'm giving you the chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, right?"

"Being a hero and saving a beautiful woman is all about gaining favor, but if I gain your favor, it will only make me wake up later the next day!"

Fang Yi's complaints only elicited a chuckle from the other end of the phone.

"By the way, is everything okay with Jianzi? Although you bought some exorcism tools from us, compared to exorcism tools that need to be constantly replenished with spiritual energy before they can be used, you, the owner, are more reassuring, right?"

After the pleasant exchange, the topic returned to Yotsuya Miko.

Kotoko Iwanaga also knew that her master went there for Yotsuya Kenko, but he also had other ideas.

Originally, the museum owner wanted to find a person related to evil spirits, hoping to find out why there are so many evil spirits in this city and whether it is related to the "Predator". Now, it is estimated that there will be another "Predator" insect egg incident.

"I do feel relieved, but now I'm starting to get anxious again. This girl has so many troubles around her!"

Speaking of trouble, Fang Yi also sympathized with this girl. Putting aside the troublesome Yin-Yang eyes, she also had such a troublesome best friend around her.
