A star charcoal stream known as a more ancient landlord among the witchcraft schools. Although this school, which has served the country for a long time, has recently quit serving the country, most of the troubleshooting work for paranormal relationships is still commissioned by the state, not the private sector.

There are many wizards in the star charcoal stream, but the star charcoal family, which is the main house and the main one, also does their work independently of the branches and brothers. Rather, my employer's work is so frequent. This has not changed for centuries.

"Tada, now..."

In the evening, the star charcoal Kira, who returned to the main residence, entered the living room. The clothes are torn everywhere and you can see injuries everywhere.

"Baba, come straight home when you're hurt. Go to the hospital properly. It stinks of care."

The current star charcoal leader, Shigeaki Starcharcoal, whispers complaining, but gives out a first-aid kit.

"Like a game recovery facility, if you're going to the hospital, there's no waiting time or procedure, and you're going to recover soon, I'll go there. Or in times of serious injuries that are beyond Shining Boy's control and can be treated as an emergency. If you get injured like this, you won't see me right away...."

"I'm using the Yukioka inn. That's the best recovery facility there is. If Baba gets hurt, you should go to Junko."

"I don't know Junko very well."

A nephew and aunt have a conversation while performing therapy. Kira was dealing with this 12-year-old Shining instead of her mother, but lately, it seems like she has become like her sister and brother.

(Even when Hikaru was small and honest, he was like a brother, but I wonder if he is back in that era. Not at all honest right now)

That's what Kira thinks.

I just finished my treatment and got a call. The opponent is Zhu Tang Chundo, the deputy secretary of defense.

I'm sorry, but I need you to investigate and crush me.

Alright, here we go again. This is the sixth time this month. What are the other demons doing? "

Brightness shouted. Even though it has only been about ten days since the beginning of this month, the number of cases seems to be abnormal. More than three times as often as usual.

Of course, I have other requests. As you know, cases of paranormal relationships have been frequent for months. One of the main reasons for this is the revitalization of the paranormal invasion of other countries, but there is also the extra stimulus that the Grimpenis has given to the paranormal territory. "

I don't understand the reasoning of the latter.

You must be hard to understand because you are strong and elite. Those who are out of the way depend only on their own strength. That's why the supernormal who don't belong to Grimpenis or anywhere else are excited to get even stronger power. "

"That's the reasoning."

After listening to Zhu Tang's story, I thought it would be okay for everyone to go to Yukioka Research Institute.

"But when you say that to an elite bureaucrat who has reached the end of the world, it feels so uncomfortable."

I'm a career player, but I mixed up with a non-career group and came out of the scene. When I was young, I crossed various dangerous bridges. To tell you the truth, you are the elite by birth. [M] They have a good family line, and they're blessed with talent. "

I think Kira is aware of the difference between brilliant and genius, listening to Zhu Tang's words.

"So, what's the request?

Do you know the story of Mr. Land, Sea and Moon?

Land, sea and moon. Of course I do. It is an urban legend passed down to the town of Leaf Dead Leaf. I don't know what it means to be called a monster, not a monster. "

There are successive massacres targeting women in the town of Leaf Dead Leaf. Rumor has spread that Mr. Lu Kaiyue killed him. Witnesses ate the victim's body. "

"Mr. Lu Kaiyue originally had such a legend. But lately? You're not a copycat?

I want you to investigate based on that possibility. Of course, I want to ask for a solution. "

"Roger that. Send me the rest of the data. Yeah, I'll do the job."

Hui Ming accepts Zhu Tang's request.

"That's why I'm going to repair and investigate tomorrow. It smells like a copycat anyway."

Lu Kaiyue, a legend of human eating, has been around for a long time. However, such an incident hadn't happened in Ye Dead Ye Town for a long time, but at this point, it could only be thought of as the work of another killer who imitated the legendary monster.

"I think about the possibilities. For example, the monster has actually been secretly killing people and eating them, but it's possible that they just found out recently."

Keira pays attention to the brilliance that determines.

"Ke, will they find out in succession?

"Until then, for example, I've been doing well, but it's also possible that I got caught because I was bothered."

"I see. I didn't have that idea. The boulder is miso-ah, no, nothing."

The driftstone was only in front of the 30th Road and experienced - and it was bright to stop.

Yusuke Kasuga calls herself the Urban Legend Hunter or the Strange Phenomenon Hunter.

Kasuga is a warrior at the head of the backstreet courier organization Dancing Heart, but on off-duty days, he aims to witness and elucidate the paranormal phenomena he is concerned about and carries his feet. The investigation took a long time, and it was often seen with white eyes by the boss Randy and his boss Dragon Cloud without going to work even on the day of work, but there was also a verse that was given up from above as early as possible.

"You've been there since yesterday, right?

"Yahaha, unfortunately, from yesterday."

An old farmer on his way home from work called out to him and replied while sitting cross-legged in Kasuga.

There is a tent next to Kasuga. Kasuga has been sleeping here since yesterday.

Kasuga was at the edge of the town of Ye Dead Leaf. Behind it is a residential neighborhood, beside which there is a forest, and on the other side of the forest is a field.

And in front of Kasuga's eyes, a main road stretches, and countless stone statues are placed on both sides of the road. Not ten or twenty. I was wondering if there were more than a hundred.

All statues are made of plaster. It seems to be regularly taken care of and there is not much dirt. The statues are mixed with young and old men and women, but they all have sad expressions, pose as if seeking salvation, and are placed facing the road. All the statues on both sides are posing for help as they reach out to the walkers and open their hands.

In front of the main road stands a stand, and it says: "The mourners."

"Recently, the same person, besides you, carried his legs several times. It's time for the statues of the mourners to move. Sometimes they come when they know that. You are, aren't you? How do you know?

"Oira is a strange phenomenon hunter. I have a network of information on my hands, so I just followed it."

Kasuga replied in surprise to the farmer's words while lighting a cigarette.

"Has Grandpa ever seen them move?

"Many times. I've seen them attacking people, and I've seen more of them."

"More friends?

Hearing stories that are not in advance, Kasuga's eyes shine.

"That's... that's it..."

The farmer walks and points to one of the statues from close. Kasuga also stood up and walked towards the farmer.

The statue that the farmer pointed to, like the others, reached out to beg for help with a sad face. But there was one difference. Only one hand is stretched and the camera is gripped in the other hand.

"Same as you. Hearing rumors of statues of mourning, he was sticking around here. And... after seeing what you're looking for, we'll join them."

"You mean you were attacked? Wow, that's interesting!"

Kasuga plays a voice. If he wasn't scared at all, the farmer was nodding when he saw Kasuga's reaction, which seemed not to make fun of him as a yota story.

"I don't know.... There are a lot of people, including me, who saw the statue move. But that's not all that happened. Did you... do something bad? I don't know what that is."

"You tried to steal their treasure, didn't you?

Someone made a loud voice as the farmer talked so far.

Kasuga and the farmer looked back, and there was a strong bald young man with a good gatai and bad looks.

"That's the man I was telling you about. He's been carrying his feet lately."

The farmer whispers in Kasuga's ear. The farmer doesn't seem to have a very good impression. In fact, even if Kasuga saw it, it had a negative impression. Both eyes and face are faint.

"So you're aiming for a paranormal phenomenon like Oira and her friends? By the way, what's a treasure? I didn't hear anything like that."

Kasuga talks to a tough young man with a lovely laugh.

"You didn't even know about Kijima's raw medicine? I thought you were after him... I'm a monkey like this."

The young man presents his business card on Kasuga.

"Law Firm Attorney Yodo Tsubaki Michi"

(You don't look like a very good lawyer. I can only see you as a muscle)

Kasuga sees his business card and tries to kill him with a smile.

"Oh, what's wrong?

"Beh, nothing. Oira is Yusuke Kasuga. It's an urban legendary hunter."

"You live in the back street... but you don't look that way. If you don't mind, why don't you change places and talk?

Hooi

Kasuga followed the thorny path of inviting while turning his suspicious gaze lightly.
