"...Yes, Mr. President, because an unexpected powerful ghost appeared, the temptation for that guy was not implemented as planned."

Outside the warm bus ramen restaurant, in the darkness not far away, a figure wrapped in a black robe stood there quietly.

"However, the Soul Eliminator Association should think that it is just an indiscriminate attack against them, but it will be distracted."

The strange mask pattern on the figure's face vaguely formed the word "three".

"According to the current observation, as the president said, although that guy is not good-looking, his strength is far beyond that of ordinary spirit removers, and he is an opponent worthy of serious consideration."

"Also, I found an interesting place, which may be his weakness."

"Understood, I will not act rashly, everything will be executed as planned..."

After the communication was completed, the figure smashed the old-fashioned mobile phone in his hand and disappeared into the darkness.

"Until, kill Sousuke Araki."

...

The next day, early in the morning.

In front of the old "One Household Building" gate, the nameplate of the resident with "Araki" written in crooked letters is shining in the morning sun.

"Ding dong... ding dong... ding dong..."

The evenly spaced, extremely polite doorbell woke Sousuke Araki, who was sleeping.

"Yawn... Early in the morning... Who... Don't you know that they didn't sleep for a night after tossing around yesterday?"

When he walked into the courtyard with his upper body naked, he saw a man and a woman in suits already waiting outside the courtyard gate.

Seeing Sousuke Araki's sturdy body covered in tattoos, the slanted blindfold, and the fierce eyes lacking sleepiness from a distance, the woman in the suit quickly hid behind the man with a pale face as if she had seen an evil spirit.

"That... Excuse me, is this the new resident here... Mr. Araki...?"

Only the man with glasses was left, swinging his legs, holding on to the last trace of courage, and asked respectfully with a trembling voice.

A certain question on the way here, the answer has been revealed in my heart at this moment.

The one who dares to live in this haunted house that cannot be destroyed by a typhoon is indeed a peerless murderer...

"Ah, I just... let me say it first, I don't order anything, I don't take out loans, I can't buy a house, I don't confirm any courier and bank transfers, I don't have any equipment to watch HNK TV at home, I don't have any sperm to donate and I don't have it yet. I don't want to work hard."

Sousuke Araki rubbed his sleepy eyes and stated his position slightly unhappy.

"No, we didn't come because of these things..."

The man carefully bowed ninety degrees and presented his identity card across the goalkeeper.

"We are from the Taito District Taxation Bureau. This is your business card and work certificate."

It seems that they know the legend of this house, and the two have no plans to enter the house.

"Tax... the tax bureau?"

Looking at the information on the business card, Sosuke Araki suddenly had a headache.

"Don't look at the villa I live in, let's not mention the fact that I am now a homeless person. I also paid withholding tax for me in my previous job, and it is not yet time for year-end tax..."

It's not just him, anyone who encounters the tax bureau will probably have the same face.

The tax department is the last thing every Japanese wants to deal with, no one.

There are many categories of taxation in Japan, and the national taxation and local taxation departments will simultaneously levy various complex tax items on personal income.

Therefore, at the end of the year, most people will hire a professional "tax accountant" to "overall plan" for their personal annual taxation, so as to make reasonable use of various policies, add cost and expenses, and plan the most reasonable tax amount.

Often at this time, major shopping malls will also carry out promotional activities for computers, cameras, operating electrical appliances, and professional equipment that can be included in accounting accounts such as "expenses" and "costs".

However, all of the above have little to do with Sosuke Araki's migrant workers who are hovering in the first tier of the levy.

"Mr. Araki, we are not here for personal income tax, but for Gudu tax..."

After the man adjusted his glasses and confirmed that there was only one house around, he took out a document from his bag.

"Well, according to the lease agreement you signed and filed with the owner of the house, you will be responsible for the Gudu tax during the lease period, right?"

He carefully read the terms of the document, for fear that if he mispronounced a word, he would be pulled in by a terrifying man separated by a wall, and he would encounter such and such terrifying things.

"Solid, Gudu tax?"

Hearing these three words, Araki Sosuke was like a bolt from the blue, and the sleepiness that enveloped him disappeared instantly.

"Bastard Lesson 9... No, this must be the old man's conspiracy..."

Big, careless! ! !

I escaped the dues in the town, but I forgot about this...

In Japan, property owners are required to pay fixed asset tax and urban planning tax based on the property value assessed by the tax department each year, collectively referred to as the Kudu tax.

Among them, Tokyo's fixed asset tax is 1.4% of the property's appraised value, and the urban planning tax is 0.3% of the property's appraised value.

In some lease contracts, there are also cases where it is agreed that the tenant is responsible for this part of the tax.

"Here is the payment slip for paying the property tax. You can choose to pay in four installments a year, or you can pay at one time. You can apply for it at nearby banks and convenience stores..."

After handing over the property tax payment slip and stating the "notices" without a soul, the two tax bureau staff left at a speed as if they were being chased by gangsters.

"...Please pay attention to the payment within the specified time. If the property tax payment is delayed, a maximum delay of 14.6% may be incurred. If the payment is delayed for too long, the relevant agency may conduct compulsory seizure of the house or income."

In their hearts, even if the resident refuses to pay the tax, there should be no staff willing to risk their lives to come to the door for "forced seizure".

"one two three four……"

Only Sousuke Araki, whose face was pale, counted the numbers on the payment slip in his hand with a trembling voice. It is estimated by unified standards such as floor space, but it doesn't matter whether you are a haunted house or not.

Therefore, the luxurious one-family building where Araki Sosuke lives is quite large, with a garage and a front and rear yard. The construction area of ​​the house is far beyond the scope of tax deductions.

After taking into account several renovations and depreciation, the government assessed the value at more than 60 million yen.

In other words, if he lives in this house, the Gudu tax he needs to pay every year is...

"……one million?!"

This is far more than the rent of the former apartment in Tibet for nearly a year.

"Even if the payment is made quarterly, it will cost more than 200,000 at a time..."

This is a fatal sum of money that is enough to put Sousuke Araki into financial crisis and defeat the already vulnerable capital chain after he "splurges".

The tax bureau is indeed a more terrifying existence than hell.
