Inferior ability user's return from the demonic realm

Miho had his face in the office of the Japan branch of the World Organization of Competent Persons the day after he was raided by mysterious people. Yuto had asked me to confirm it, but Miho himself was concerned.

Sitting down on the sofa in the reception room with Ming Liang, and waiting, Shima Hisae, the branch manager of the Japan branch of the World Organization of Competent Persons, and his secretary Shima Kakigaki appeared.

"Miho, there you are. Ming Liang, too."

"Thank you, Hisae, for making time for your busy business"

"It's okay, it's okay! I'm busy, mainly because I'm an employee and Shima."

"No, it's my job."

Shima, who says so, actually looks tired too. It must be Shima who is essentially dismantling this request from the Japanese government and the investigation of the mysterious capable men who attacked Miho and the others yesterday.

"... hedgehog, sorry to keep you busy"

"Oh, Miho, it's okay.... because I'm used to it"

……

Miho and Akera looked at the same time sympathetic to the pitiful secretary.

Hisae strives for its subtle air and sits on the couch opposite Miho's while trying not to look at Shima. Shima refrained beside Hisae as she stared at Ji, not trying to see this one, holding the material and tablet PC in one hand.

"Mr. Hisae, I'm here today..."

Hisae's expression hardens when Miho cuts out today's business.

"I know. The ones who raided yesterday."

"... Yes"

Hisae nodded forward when she saw Shima chilling.

"First of all, it's who these guys are, right? In the meantime, let me conclude."

Miho awaits Hisae's words with surprise, wondering if the investigation had already been completed.

"These are the leopards of the dark night."

Miho couldn't hide his surprise. No, the findings were also in the expected range. Surprised is not who they are. I was surprised how easy it was to crack my identity.

Miho remembers what Yuto was saying yesterday.

If these guys are leopards of the dark night, they even said, "All I can say is stupid." If the Leopard of the Dark Night came at me for any purpose, it's not professional to let him grab that tail. Not to mention how far-fetched it is to be so easy... to crack your identity in a day.

"Mr. Hisae...... is that true? It's so easy for a leopard of darkness..."

"I know what Miho is talking about. It's too broad for a leopard of the dark night."

Miho nods carefully at Hisae branch's words.

"It's just that this is true. Because he possessed conclusive evidence."

"Is that proof? Is that...?

"It's a recognition note...... It's like a small card that is twisted with mysterious metal that only Chinese leopards of the night possess. I still don't know what this metal is in the engine. I've just heard the story before, and I've never seen it before."

When Hisae said so, he put something like a small card on the table that seemed to be only about two or three centimeters its recognition vote. That's half, the prototype is uncertain as it is about to melt. Miho reaches for that copper-coloured, half-melted card.

"Ah, Miho, be careful not to spiritualize"

"Huh?"

"The metal, when touched while exerting spiritual and magical powers, is taken into the flesh and completely assimilated, so it can't be removed. I don't know who made it for what purpose, but I'm sure it won't be too busy. Well, for the most part, I can imagine. Probably...... something like a transmitter role or preventing betrayal. That means the possessor is disappearing with him when he dies."

Hisae shrugged her shoulders without hiding her disgust.

"Something like this... in your body? I checked my possessions right after I defeated them, and nothing came up."

Miho picked the recognition slip and checked it closely near his face.

I see something written, I stare.

"It says there," Mar Yulin. "It is an Ability to belong to the Leopard of the Dark Night with two names [Poison Arm]. Fine, he's famous. Formerly the head of a criminal organization that was raging in Shanghai, I don't know how, but he's a man scouted by the Leopard of the Dark Night. I heard he was a hell of a guy who dyed his hands from human trafficking to organ trafficking, but he was pretty skilled. He's also killed several people who are capable of belonging to the Beijing branch of the agency. That's Miho."

"No... because I wasn't the only one"

Miho answers that, but I can see something like a letter around the melt of the recognition note, but I'm not sure.

"To the melted one... I'm wondering if the name of the guy who made this recognition card might have been engraved. I'm still investigating, but maybe... maybe it's something of a curse, that doesn't explain it. I'm just wondering if this would have controlled the mentally and physically capable."

"No way... that's what happened"

Miho looked at this creepy, unobtrusive recognition slip and frowned.

And then a few new questions boil down.

"Mr. Hisae... So why is this here? They weren't dead yesterday, and if they were assimilating it to the flesh, shouldn't they be able to take it out? Hello! Are you dead?!? No, but if it is, this will go away, won't it?

Hisae narrowed her eyes to Miho's natural doubts.

"They died yesterday. No, he was killed, to be exact."

"Nah!?

"Of course, we didn't do it. Well, normally, you must have been solemnized by your people, I don't know what the raid was all about, but whatever it was, you failed. And not only that, but also as punishment for causing such a dumb situation that we are bound by it."

……

Miho makes his face tense about Hisae branch's story. More decent people than I imagined...... not an organization. Miho's back got cold, wondering how cheap people's lives were estimated.

That doesn't mean Miho was afraid of his opponent. It's not, and the fact that these unusual people stepped into their alma mater, St. Ching's College, to which the average person attends, is the problem.

Miho turns a serious face to Hisae branch and Shima.

Besides, we haven't cleared up any doubts about this recognition form being here yet.

Hisae can tell from Miho's expression what Miho is trying to say and nods.

"Miho's question is actually ours too. Shortly after they arrived at the laboratory of the transported institution, they suddenly suffered and lost their appearance and form. Right in front of us... it's like your body's liquefied and melted. And this recognition slip dropped."

"Oh, no!

What Hisae said was beyond Miho's imagination, and Miho was just as surprised.

Institutional laboratories are rooms that accommodate not only laboratories but also captured outsiders and capable persons, as well as rooms for interrogation. The location was set up in a different place from Shinjuku Deputy City Centre, where the branch manager's office was located, and Miho did not know the exact location either.

"That's what happened... Damn, if they show you something like that and you don't feel well, you don't! For the time being, I can't eat jelly anymore..."

Miho, is that the problem? I think so, but Hisae put her arms together and looked forward as she pumped.

"Well, I'll explain it in turn. There are still questions and mysteries... about what happened and what you can think of from there."
