Chapter 99
[Kazali was standing next to the small pond, and a basketball-sized fish egg appeared in the pond, but the center was a strange translucent yellow. ]
[It looked a bit like the eggs of the Desire Devourer that Metzl had made before, but there were still some differences, and there was only one of them. ]
["It seems that if you use one core coin to make a Desire Devourer, it is still a little short, but it doesn't matter, grow up well, under this inhuman desire."]
Chapter 84 After being blinded by desire
["If you think of anything, please tell me as soon as possible." After sending Kasumigaoka Utaha back to the apartment she rented outside, Hattori Heiji said to Kasumigaoka Utaha, and Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded, without saying much, and turned away. ]
[Although he left, Hattori Heiji did not ignore everything, but whispered a few words to Kosaka Daisuke, and then left. ]
[But a mechanical beetle flew out from behind the motorcycle that was driving away, and it was obvious that Hattori Heiji was also paying attention to this. 】
【About half an hour later, Souta arrived near Kasumigaoka Utaha's house on his motorcycle. He took off his helmet and looked at the situation inside. Souta scratched his head and said, "So what should I do next?"】
【Just as Souta was thinking about this, a bicycle suddenly came over from a distance. A handsome boy with glasses parked his bicycle under the apartment and went up directly. Souta looked up and found that the place where the boy went was the door of Kasumigaoka Utaha's room. Seeing this, Souta leaned against the stairs and listened. 】
【"...So, I need your help, senior, please." It seemed that this boy wanted to ask Kasumigaoka for help? But Souta came up late, so he didn't hear the previous words. 】
【"I need quiet, Amaki!" A very cold voice came from inside, but this voice was from Amaki Tomoya, who showed a surprised expression on his face: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you call me ethics before?"】
【"I just think it's more appropriate." Kasumigaoka Kasumigaoka's answer was still very cold, and Amaki Tomoya felt even more worried. He knocked on the door hard: "Did President Mo Chen do something to you?"】
【"Nothing, Amaki, please leave." After hearing Amaki Tomoya say Mo Chen's name, Kasumigaoka Kasumigaoka's tone became even colder. 】
【Seeing this scene, Amaki Tomoya still wanted to knock on the door, but seeing this, Sota frowned slightly. What happened? 】
【Although it is not clear, Miss Kasumigaoka obviously does not want to see this man named Tomoya Aki, but Tomoya Aki keeps knocking on the door. Seeing this, Souta wants to stop Tomoya Aki, but just as Tomoya Aki is about to leave, a hand is placed on Souta's shoulder. 】
【"Officer Kosaka?" Souta was startled. It turned out that Daisuke Kosaka had come back again. His face, which looked like a gangster boss, was very serious. He nodded to Souta and then went forward to communicate with Tomoya Aki. But Tomoya Aki was startled when he saw Daisuke Kosaka's appearance and ran away. 】
【This made Kosaka Daisuke feel that Amaki Ren was also suspicious and he immediately chased after him: "Don't run!"】
【"What's this?" Souta asked with a question mark on his head, and also walked over. It was just at this time, probably because of what happened just now, Kasumigaoka opened the door, and then saw Souta appearing at his door: "Are you... that Kamen Rider?"】
【"..." Souta blinked, nodded and admitted it. 】
【Kasumigaoka Shiyu did not resist communicating with Souta, and let Souta enter the room. This is a single apartment with a room, a bathroom, a kitchen and a small living room. 】
【Souta sat on a chair in the living room, and Kasumigaoka Utaha poured a glass of water for Souta. Then Kasumigaoka Utaha fell silent, and seemed to be in a daze from time to time. Seeing this, Souta became even more confused. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm really sorry to bother you. Miss Kasumigaoka."】
【"It's okay." Kasumigaoka answered very concisely. When Souta was about to ask something, Kasumigaoka directly said, "You came to me to find out why those monsters attacked me, right?"】
【"Uh..." Souta didn't expect Kasumigaoka to ask this directly. But he still nodded, and kept observing Kasumigaoka in front of him. 】
【"Maybe this is what you deserve." Kasumigaoka said a little self-deprecatingly, and then looked at the ceiling, looking like she was in a daze, and also like she was reminiscing. 】
【“I once posted something on the Internet, wanting someone to kill someone who had done me a favor.”】
【“...Is it Mr. Mo Chen?” Souta asked after a moment of silence. He had learned some things from Nanatsuki Koshimizu before, but not much, so Souta was just guessing now. 】
【“Yeah.” Kasumigaoka nodded, curled up into a ball and said, “I was helped by President Mo Chen in the past. But I thought it was someone else who helped me, so I started pursuing him. At that time, President Mo Chen blocked that person’s club application several times because it was not compliant. But I was blinded by the desire for love and said on the Internet that I wanted to kill President Mo Chen.”】
【“...” Souta understood why Kasumigaoka’s mood was so unstable now: “I see, in fact, no matter who is right or wrong, I think it is difficult to make a conclusion. If you think you are right, you will not listen to other people’s opinions.”】
【Seeing Kasumigaoka’s appearance, Souta thought of his previous appearance, but of course this refers to the mood before he met Mo Chen on the plane because he had been blaming himself after the explosion. Souta also sighed. 】
【"People's desires sometimes cover up everything in front of them. When they come to their senses, it's too late. After they get rid of the control of desires, they will find what they have lost, but what has happened cannot be changed. All we can do is look forward and make up for it."】
【"Make up for it?" After hearing what Souta said, Kasumigaoka narrowed her eyes and did not respond to Souta's words. The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Souta saw that Kasumigaoka must have listened to it. He picked up a pink-covered novel that Kasumigaoka had placed on the table and flipped through it for a while. Souta smiled: "Hehe."】
【"What's wrong?" After hearing Souta's laughter, Kasumigaoka looked up, and Souta was a little embarrassed and said, "Sorry, this book was written by my second sister. Some of the plots in it are actually things that happened in our family. So I couldn't help laughing when I saw it."】
Chapter 85 The attacked light novelist
[Perhaps because of the novel as a starting point for the conversation, Kasumigaoka talked a little more. The two had just chatted for a while when Souta suddenly looked around with vigilance: "Ms. Kasumigaoka, when were you targeted?"]
["When?" Kasumigaoka seemed to have recovered a little now. She thought for a while: "A week ago, I could feel some strange looks, but because there were many such looks in school, I didn't care."]
["Ms. Kasumigaoka, stay in the room, Qian Don't come out." Souta said to Kasumigaoka, then opened the door and walked out, looking around vigilantly. Soon Souta saw a blue figure flying in the sky in the distance. It was the Blue Parrot Devourer. At this time, a motorcycle drove over from a distance. On it was Anku. After Anku got off the motorcycle, he looked at Souta on the third floor and took out the peacock coin: "Souta."】
【"I know." Souta took the core coin, completed the transformation, and then flew into the air in an instant. In the air, Souta was also observing the situation around him, and did not find the Green Parrot Devourer.】
【"Souta, don't deal with it. The characteristic of the bird-type Devourer is that it will return to the nest." Anku said as he looked at OOO who was flying up, and OOO nodded to Anku, and then OOO accelerated all of a sudden, at a very fast speed. Even a sonic boom was made.】
【"Souta's physical fitness is getting stronger and stronger." Anku, who was below, stretched out his right hand to block in front of him, because OOO's takeoff just now also caused a hurricane. 】
【But seeing Souta's current speed, Anku was also a little surprised. 】
【OOO's speed was much faster than before. This time, the Blue Parrot Devourer seemed to be beaten back step by step. Finally, it flapped its wings and flew away. Seeing this, OOO looked at Anku below, and Anku also took out the Eagle Jar. The Eagle Jar chased the Blue Parrot Devourer, and then OOO slowly fell to the ground. 】
【"Anku, what is his goal?" Souta canceled the transformation, flicked his fingers, and returned the Peacock Coin to Anku, who directly took it into his body. Of course, what Souta asked here was not the Devourer, but what Anku (Lost)'s purpose was. 】
【Because Souta also knew Anku's attitude towards Anku (Lost), so now he could not mention Anku (Lost) in front of Anku. 】
【It's just that Souta is very curious, what exactly is Anku (Lost) going to do? As for the cell coins, there should be a lot of them in Anku's body. 】
【"I've said it before, just like the relationship between the ice and the stick of a popsicle. If you can collect more cell coins, you can make up for the lack of core coins, but this situation is very unstable... unless..."】
【"Unless what?" Anku didn't say anything else, which made Zongtai a little confused, but Anku immediately turned around and said, "Nothing, leave this here with you. This time, the Desire Devourer gave me a very strange feeling, so be careful."】
【"Hello." Zongtai took the core coin thrown by Anku, and just when he was about to say something, his phone rang, and then Zongtai's face changed slightly: "What did you say? Sister Quan was attacked?"】
["I understand. I will take Miss Kasumigaoka with me. Sister Koshimizu, it seems that the other party's target should be the romance novelist. Sister Izumi will be in your care..." After hanging up the phone, Souta's momentum seemed to have completely changed. After all, it was his sister who was attacked this time. ]
[Souta went back to the third floor, to Kasumigaoka's room. He had just stepped into the room and had not said a few words to Kasumigaoka when Souta's phone rang again: "Mr. Mo Chen?"]
[Hearing that it was Mo Chen who called Souta, Kasumigaoka Shiyu's eyes suddenly straightened. She seemed to be evasive, but she wanted to listen. Seeing this scene, Souta directly turned on the speaker of the phone. 】
【"Kidori Yu-kun, I received information about two attacks. Two people were attacked last night. One was Kousaka Kirino, who is also an online writer of romance novels, but was stopped by Kuuga. The other one, Himekōji Akito, is also a writer. His life is fine, but some of his memories were taken away, and he fell into a coma."】
【"His memories were taken away?" Souta was a little confused. If he was in a coma? Then how did Mo Chen know that the other party was in a coma? But after thinking about Mo Chen's identity, maybe there are other ways. 】
【"Well, if the opponent is defeated, then perhaps the memory will come back."】
【"I understand." Zongtai nodded and said: "Now it seems that the opponent's target should be some idea in the novelist's mind. The Desire Monster can take away the memory. Anku told me before that the bird-type Desire Monster has the characteristic of feeding. The eagle auxiliary machine has already chased it."】
【"Well, but you still have to be careful. The energy of the two Desire Monsters this time is a little wrong, and the fluctuations are consistent, which means that these two Desire Monsters were born from the same person."】
【"Is this possibility possible?" Zongtai asked in surprise when he heard this. 】
【"If it is an ordinary person, if you want to give birth to two Desire Monsters, you must have a strong desire, otherwise, it will be a mess." Anku stood at the door, leaning against the railing and said lightly. 】
【"I understand, Mr. Mo Chen, I will take care of it. By the way, I am here with Miss Kasumigaoka Shiyu. Do you want to say something to Miss Kasumigaoka Shiyu?" Zongtai looked at Kasumigaoka. But at this time, Kasumigaoka took a step back in fear. But there was also some hope in her eyes, and she obviously wanted to say something to Mo Chen. 】
【"..." Mo Chen on the other side of the phone was silent for a while and said: "Keep working on the novel."】
【After a simple sentence, he hung up the phone, which made Souta a little embarrassed, but Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes were bright. Seeing this scene, Souta scratched his head: "So Miss Kasumigaoka, the other party may still attack you now, so we may need you to act with us next, okay?"】
【"Okay." Kasumigaoka did not refuse. 】
Chapter 8 The Kamado Family
"I'm on camera this time? But I'm just a country boy?" At the same time, in a small courtyard at the foot of a mountain on the side of Jiaobenji, Tanjiro Kamado, who was taking care of his younger brothers, looked at the content of the video with some surprise.
"Brother, you're on TV." Tanjiro Kamado has five brothers and sisters. His family is a big family. They all live in the mountains. There are some villages nearby. Tanjiro Kamado went to high school there, but he stopped studying after graduating from high school and went home to help.
This mountain is actually their family's private land. The family tradition is to protect this mountain. I don't know why, but Tanjiro Kamado is a very obedient child, and his father's physique is also very good, so he naturally went home.
Tanjiro Kamado was also a little surprised by the appearance of these videos, but after finding himself in the video, Tanjiro Kamado was also very surprised.
His father Tanjuro Kamado has been very calm since he appeared in the video, as if he was not surprised at all, while his mother was a little worried.
"Tanjiro, come with me." Tanjuro Kamado, who looked a little skinny, came out with his coat on and shouted to Tanjuro Kamado,
"I'm here, father. Nezuko, you come and take care of Rokuta and the others." Tanjuro Kamado handed his brothers and sisters to Nezuko Kamado, who was one year younger than him, and then went into the room with Tanjuro Kamado.
There was also a loli with red eyes in the room. Tanjuro Kamado recognized this loli at a glance, naturally, the Haibara Ai who appeared in the previous video.
"Tanjiro, this one is Gaia, the will of the world." Tanjuro Kamado's words made Tanjiro Kamado stunned, and then he jumped up: "What?"
Gaia appeared in the Kamado family. What this incident will cause can only be known in the future.
But there are still many discussions on the Internet.
"S, it feels like the host of the Desire Devourer this time is so unlucky, two Desire Devourers."
"No, why do I feel like there are three Desire Devourers? Have you forgotten Kazali who appeared before? The Desire Devourer created by Kazali is not also in that house, right?"
"Actually, what I am surprised about now is that the Desire Devourer can actually take away other people's memories?"
"Will bird-type lust-eating monsters take things back to their young like a mother bird takes care of her chicks? Bird-type lust-eating monsters are really a bit strange."
"I think that's why Anku and the others don't have a good relationship with other greedy people."
"Take care of others..."
"It feels very similar to someone's story..."
"Don't mention someone, Kasumigaoka Utaha has appeared, don't be a riddler. Just tell Mr. Mo Chen's story directly."
"Hehehe."
["I briefly thought about it. If the other party's target is the memory of you light novel writers, then it means that it is possible that his desire is for your knowledge. Now we have to consider whether there are similar writers on the verge of death? Or want to be famous, or want to write the best novel." Although he said he was going to take Kasumigaoka away, Souta did not leave rashly, but took Kasumigaoka downstairs. ]
[The three of them gathered together to discuss. It was said to be three people, but in fact it was Souta and Kasumigaoka who were talking, while Anku sat alone on the motorcycle, playing with a cell coin in his hand, and did not listen to Souta. 】
【"Moreover, the other party should know me, and even know where my home is." Kasumigaoka seemed to have recovered a lot, and said: "Although I have held a book signing event, my personal identity information is very hidden. Only the editorial department has photos of my residence and my original appearance."】
【"In other words, the other party may be from the same company as you?" Hearing this, Souta thought: "I remember that Sister Quan is also in poor health. She has never gone out and has never held a book signing event. Only the editors know about it. If we call and ask now, maybe we can find a suitable target, and then find them one by one."】
【Souta obviously wants to take the initiative. 】
【Pa pa pa, at this time, applause sounded, and Hattori Heiji walked over from not far away. At the same time, the beetle mobile phone mechanical bug that had been parked on the wall flew into Hattori Heiji's hand and turned into a mobile phone. 】
【"You guy... This is Mo Chen's work." Anku looked at Hattori Heiji who appeared, and his eyes were on the mobile phone in Hattori Heiji's hand. He had seen this kind of thing from Mo Chen before. 】
【"I am indeed friends with the Smiling Tiger, but you are very good, Kotori Yu-kun. Your reasoning ability is much better than some confused detectives." Hattori Heiji looked at Souta, and did not talk to Anku. Instead, he looked at Souta with some appreciation and said, "How about it, are you willing to join the Special Investigation Division?"】
【"Special Investigation Division? Sorry, I don't have this idea yet." Although it is not clear what the Special Investigation Division is, Souta knows that Hattori Heiji is a member of the Metropolitan Police Department, and he still does not want to join the Metropolitan Police Department for the time being. 】
【"Really? It's a pity, but your reasoning just now is very good. I have found three people so far." Hattori Heiji didn't say much. He looked a little cold. He took out a folder and handed it to Souta: "There are three suitable people in total."】
【"These three people have submitted their works to the publishing house where the attacked people work, but their skills are relatively poor and their income has always been tight. But at the same time, they also contacted the publishing house today and said that they have a good inspiration."】
【Souta opened the folder, which contained pictures of three people. Then Souta opened it and looked at it for a while, and his eyes were on the third file, which was written by a person named Xiang Kai. 】
【"Anku, the relationship between physical quality and desire should not be big, right?" Souta suddenly asked Anku. 】
【"Is there a connection between human body and desire?" Anku asked back. Souta nodded and looked at the document and said, "Let's go to the home of Mr. Xiang Kai."】
【"Although the other two people want to make money by writing novels, they have their own part-time jobs. Mr. Xiang Kai's information says that he is in poor health and has no other income, so he should hope that his work can be successful."】
Chapter 87 Anku's uneasiness
【"I have to pay such a large deposit? Big cities are really different. I would not have brought the Nichirin Sword if I had known." Tanjiro Kamado walked out of the Metropolitan Police Department with his long box on his back, and sighed helplessly. 】
【"But didn't you expect such a big city to have so many requirements?" While walking, Tanjiro Kamado looked up and saw a crow flying over his shoulder: "Tennoji Matsuemon, are you here too?"】
【"Idiot, idiot!" At this time, the crow called Tennoji Matsuemon shouted to Tanjiro Kamado: "You were caught, you idiot."】
【"Ahahaha, sorry. By the way, Matsuemon, please, that ghost has entered the city. The smell here is too complicated. I can't find him at once, so I'll leave it to you."】
【"Idiot, idiot..." The crow just answered like this, and then flapped its wings and left. 】
【"Well... Let's go find the Todoroki family first. I don't know how Miss Yachiyo is doing now." Looking at the crow leaving, Tanjiro Kamado took out a note, looked at the content on it, and then found Wagunaria. 】
[Because of the attack in the morning, Wagunaria did not open the door, but there were still people in the store. In particular, from outside, they saw Yachiyo Todoroki talking to the store manager, and then Tanjiro Kamado knocked on the door, attracting everyone's attention. ]
["Tanjiro?" Yachiyo Todoroki, who was outside, turned around and saw Tanjiro Kamado, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face. It seemed that the two knew each other. After letting Tanjiro Kamado in, the two stood and chatted directly. ]
["Boom..." Just at this time, Sato Jun walked out of the room, as if he wanted to say something to Yachiyo Todoroki, but when he saw Yachiyo Todoroki standing outside and chatting with Tanjiro Kamado, Sato Jun was silent for a while, and Momo went back to the kitchen. On the other side, Soma saw the scene in front of him and smiled. ]
["What's the matter with coming to Tokyo this time?" Yachiyo Todoro asked curiously after reminiscing about the past. 】
【"Well, there are some things. By the way, is your father okay now? I may need to ask him to help maintain my Nichirin Sword in a while. I've been using it a lot recently." Tanjiro Kamado scratched his head awkwardly and patted the box on his waist. 】
【"Well, then go home to rest at night. Your father must want to meet you too." Yachiyo Todoroki agreed with a smile, and then a crow flew over from outside and bumped against the glass door. 】
【"That's...Matsuemon, right?" Yachiyo Todoroki actually knew this crow and asked in surprise. 】
【"Well, Matsuemon has grown up a lot, so we have something to do so we will leave first and come back later." Tanjiro Kamado saw Matsuemon flying over, said to Yachiyo Todoroki, and then ran out immediately. 】
【"Yachiyo, is he someone you know?" At this time, the store manager came over from a distance and asked Tanjiro Kamado who ran out. 】
【"Yes, Sister Anzi, the Kamado family has some connection with our family. They have been in contact with our family for hundreds of years. After all, our family is a forging family, and the Kamado family uses knives made of a special ore."】
【On this side, Tanjiro Kamado and Kamado Matsuemon ran quickly towards the target. Tanjiro Kamado did not take a car or anything, just running on the road. 】
【The scene turned back to Souta. Souta was followed by Anku and Hattori Heiji, and behind them was a police car. The driver in the police car was Daisuke Kosaka. Before, Daisuke Kosaka caught Tomoya Aki. After knowing that Tomoya Aki was just scared by his appearance and ran away, Daisuke Kosaka came to help. 】
