"faster……"

In mid-air, the rapidly falling animal-shaped barren skeleton seemed to sense something terrifying, but instead was aroused by the ferocity of perishing together, and swung towards Sousuke Araki...

"Hurry up, uh uh uh uh..."

Facing the barren skeleton that was rapidly zooming in and opened its huge mouth in sight, Sousuke Araki suppressed the urge to punch out the siege.

"The guy who owes the rent must have the consciousness to work hard...boxer boxer boxer boxer boxer boxer!!!"

Shouting out inexplicable slogans, he did not advance and retreated to face the desolate skeleton with his body...

He wanted to use the "sense of crisis" in front of him to restore the state when he encountered Sonic's mother-in-law that night, and tried to understand how to drive the "tenant" in his body to work for him.

"Teacher Araki?"

In the next second, under the girl's horrified gaze, the thick and long black finger on Sousuke Araki's back suddenly stretched out again and stretched out in the direction of the barren skeleton.

Through the knuckles exposed below and the outline of the clenched fists, you can vaguely identify...

That is impressive, is a reluctant, lazy...

About 180 cm in length...

middle finger.

It seems that only this gesture can express dissatisfaction with "forced business".

"Oh~ that's how it feels!"

In the smooth feeling like "pulling something out", Sousuke Araki only felt that there was an extra "phantom limb" behind him that could be manipulated.

"boom!"

However, at the moment when the giant **** with a length of 1.8 meters poked at the desolate skeleton falling from the sky...

Sousuke Araki's cheeks had already collided closely with the skull of the fallen skeleton.

Some kind of feeling that was hard to grasp suddenly disappeared.

After poking loneliness because of someone's poor manipulative skills, the **** retracted into Sosuke Araki angrily.

This picture looks like Araki Sosuke stretched out a **** hand with a **** on his back, expressing "contempt" at the barren skeleton, and creating a scene for Araki Sosuke who "removes the spirit with his face" Take a look at the atmosphere.

"Crack."

In the sound of bones shattering, the bones that made up the desolate skeleton were smashed to the ground and turned into various animals such as mice, cats, dogs, cows, horses, and birds.

"Well, it doesn't hurt anymore...it's us humans who are sorry for you..."

These cute and cute animals lingering in white light did not run around, but centered on Araki, clasping their hands obediently, turning into white light and dispersing.

"...The thing that swelled my face should be an apology."

All that is left is the chirping of various animals that vaguely linger in the ears, and the white light spots flying in the forest like fireflies, silently proving the life that once existed.

"gorgeous."

Little Bird Yumayumi slowly came to Araki Sosuke's side, and his big eyes that were overflowing with light reflected the surrounding glitter.

"It's like watching the firefly festival, hahaha."

Using the sports bag in front of him to pick up every grain of soul dust earnestly, Sosuke Araki also showed a relieved smile.

"After getting out of the subway, Mr. Araki, it was the first time tonight that you laughed so easily."

When Araki Sosuke turned his head, he realized that at some point, a girl with a long bow had already stood side by side with him.

"Spirituals are destined to endure many sad stories, to testify that the deceased has turned into an indecent existence after death..."

Under the moonlight, surrounded by fluorescent light, the witch's elegant scarlet swayed gently in the night wind.

"But the beautiful moment when the deceased was liberated and passed away made it all worthwhile."

At close range, her pure eyes stared at Sousuke Araki quietly with a tenderness that made people sink into them.

"Now I understand a little bit, presumably this is the reason why countless sages have pursued the profound meaning of 'becoming a Buddha' all their lives..."

"Mr. Araki, do you still remember the promise you made with me?"

The girl asked softly, making Sousuke Araki, who was stunned, come back to his senses.

"Remember... Whenever I encounter dangerous things, I will tell you."

"This agreement also applies to the matter of removing spirits!"

Seemingly satisfied with Sousuke Araki's fluent answer, Kotori Yumayumi nodded in a serious manner.

"In the future, please tell me the sad stories behind these resentful spirits that Araki-sensei encountered..."

"Even if I can't help, at least one more person to share the burden means less sadness."

Seeing the girl's inexplicably serious demeanor, Sousuke Araki was first taken aback.

So, are you worried about me?

He once heard Ryoma say before the second that the detectives in Lesson 9 must receive regular psychological counseling and evaluation.

Presumably for these reasons.

And those who remove spirits rely more on their devout and firm beliefs to digest the heavy burden on their hearts by themselves.

As an "unbeliever", what can I rely on to digest these negative emotions?

"Okay, I promise you!"

Araki Sousuke nodded earnestly, and then again showed a sad expression that worried the girl: "...However, it's really a pity."

"Just now, I've already pulled out such a thick, long and healthy one, and I'm only a little closer to hitting that guy!"

"It seems that the next time you 'pull', you need to use more force. 』

"Mr. Araki... Please don't use such bad words to describe what happened just now!"

...

After dealing with the ghosts at the Army Medical School ruins, the "Apprentice Eliminators" continued to head towards the top of Hakone.

With Sosuke Araki, the "humanoid self-propelled exhaust fan", from the foot to the mountainside, there was almost no grievance shrouded on the way.

Looking back at ~lightnovelpub.net~ the entire Hakone Mountain under the moonlight gives the impression that it has just been "cleaned" and has a new look.

"Mr. Araki, climb up from this side and you should be at the top of the mountain."

"Yawn, it's finally coming..."

The man-made Mt. Hakone in Toyama Park, although it is the highest mountain in Tokyo, is always less than 50 meters above sea level.

The two set off from the foot of the mountain, except for the time delayed by various things on the road, it only took less than an hour.

This is still in the case of being afraid of missing the Wraith and deliberately slowing down.

At this moment, it is only after one o'clock in the morning.

Sosuke Araki looked in the direction of Yuma Yumiya's fingers, and saw anger shrouded in anger and surrounded by trees, and a narrow old stone stairway as wide as one person was extending straight up towards the dark and dull mountain top. not the end.

On both sides of the stairs, there are craggy rocks, and a few meters away from the rusted iron handrails, there are sakura and maple trees with flaming teeth and claws.
