After the meeting, Onizuka was called alone by Granny Gu into an office next door.
After about twenty minutes, Kamiya saw the little miko come out again.
Her face looked a little annoyed.
After seeing Kamiya River, he complained slightly: "Kamitani, I'm going to Nagasaki in the afternoon to do a demobilization mission. There will be other people in our team to assist you in your work."
The two walked to the side of the corridor, facing the open window.
"Is it so sudden? What about Mengnan?"
"Originally, I don't have much ability to cure the ghosts in dreams, and isn't it becoming more and more difficult to deal with the dream boy recently? Many spiritual masters who can cure the ghosts in dreams have begun to struggle. And... my mother-in-law is not very good. I think I will continue to stay here in Kanto."
"Onitsuka, you..."
Kamiyakawa noticed something.
The information just compiled by the countermeasures room today: People who feel guilty will have a high probability of encountering Meng Nan.
As soon as this information was received, Granny Gu planned to transfer Onitsuka out of the Kanto region where Yumeno incidents occurred frequently.
There is definitely a connection between these two things.
"Don't worry about me." Onizuka looked out the window and fell into silence after finishing his sentence.
Kamiyakawa didn't say anything anymore and stood quietly with her for a while.
About five or six minutes later, Onizuka turned around and smiled at Kamiya pretending to be relaxed: "Anyway, things in Kanto depend on you. My mother-in-law also has something to tell you, so go over."
"Don't you need me to stay with you for a while?"
"Didn't I accompany you for a while? Don't worry, I'm not that fragile. Kamiya-"
"Um?"
"If, I mean if. If I were trapped in Yumeo's dream, you would definitely come to save me, right?"
"Don't say such unlucky words."
"It's just a hypothesis."
"...I will save you."
"Hehe." The corners of the little miko's beautiful curved mouth rose. This time her smile was much more lively and natural than before. She raised her hand and gently pushed Kamiyakawa, "Go to my mother-in-law quickly. She is waiting for you. I still want to see myself. Let the wind blow a little longer. Go, go."
Kamitani took a few steps towards Granny Gu's office, then suddenly turned back.
He saw Onizuka still maintaining his original posture, standing at the window in a daze.
Her shoulders were hunched, her brows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were dull, she didn't know what she was thinking, and she let the cold wind coming in from the window ruffle her hair.
This beautiful son of God who is always full of energy rarely shows such a depressed expression.
"Onitsuka, does she also feel guilty?"
Kamiyakawa was a little concerned about this.
…
It was a small office where Kamiyakawa met Granny Gu.
"Mother-in-law, Onizuka, she..."
"Yeah." Granny Gu seemed to know what Kamiya wanted to ask, "The child didn't do anything wrong, but sometimes people who didn't do bad things will still feel guilty in their hearts. So I asked her to leave Kanto temporarily and go to Nagasaki. .”
"What's that about?"
"About Xiaoying's parents. For more details, maybe it would be better to let the child tell you personally."
"oh……"
"Okay, Xiaochuan, let's talk about you. Do you have any feelings of guilt?" Grandma Gu's eyes were dull and her tone was kind.
But after she said this sentence, Kamiya once again felt that she was being carefully looked at.
"When I think about it, it seems like there isn't."
Kamiyakawa thought carefully and replied.
This is true.
Kamiya's self-feeling has always been quite good. He feels that he sits upright, behaves upright, is upright, and occasionally does good deeds.
Simply an impeccably nice guy.
As for some things done in the other world...
Oops, isn't the rule of survival for the weird tales, isn't it just to listen to whoever has a fist?
What's more, can it be called a bad thing if ghosts and gods co-host it?
And so far, Kamiyagawa has been very friendly to those neutral Kaitans, and even assigned jobs to each of them, giving them the opportunity to realize their self-worth.
What's there to feel guilty about?
Sure enough, thick-skinned people are less likely to feel guilty than ordinary people.
"Well...your psychology is much stronger than Xiaoying's."
Granny Gu closed her blind eyes slightly, and the "sense of observation" Shenyu had just noticed also disappeared simultaneously.
"not bad……"
"Before we find the members of the Enchanshi who are hiding in the dark, we need to ask you for the rest of the dream boy's affairs, Xiaochuan." Granny Gu spoke more sincerely, "We are currently involved in the operation and can deal with more than a hundred people in the dream of the dream boy. There are only a handful of spiritual masters, and you are one of them. It’s really hard on you this time.”
"Well, leave it to me." Kamiya nodded, and then remembered something, "Speaking of mother-in-law, do you think Onizuka will be safe if she leaves Kanto? Yumeo is already spreading to areas outside Kanto, right? ?”
"I can't say for sure, but I can only deal with it this way for the time being." Granny Gu shook her head.
With the power of the official organization, there are only a few people who can handle the dreams of hundreds of people, and they are already beginning to feel the difficulty.
Even the Kamiya River is like this.
Next, before the men are found out at home, the Mengnan incident will continue to break out, and a big dream will appear on the scale of thousands or tens of thousands of people...
Even Kamiyagawa couldn't guarantee that he would be able to rescue so many people.
Therefore, Onitsuka, who has a guilty conscience, would indeed be better off leaving the Kanto region first.
Neither Granny Gu nor Kamiya Chuan wanted her to be trapped in a dream and unable to get out.
…
The Usushi family's apartment.
Jia Zheng was sitting at his desk, looking through the details of a hospital bill with an expressionless face.
The window of the room was half open, and the cold wind that came in flipped the notebook on the desk, revealing pages with Yumengnan's story written on it.
Then, there were no signs.
The [Hundred Ghost Lamp] originally placed on the corner of the table suddenly became brighter.
The green lights flowed freely, reflecting the entire study in a dense blue.
Hua Hua——
The notebook continues to be blown by the wind.
Pages of paper fell off, flying up and down around the [Hundred Ghost Lantern].
This sudden change shocked everyone in the family.
She hurriedly looked towards the [Hundred Ghost Lantern].
I saw that cracks began to appear on the originally intact lampshade, which were densely packed and spreading...
…
Isehara.
The third annex of Ise Jingu Shrine is Tsukiyomigu Shrine.
The old Priest of the Shrine, dressed in priestly robes, stood quietly here with his hands folded.
Beside the old man, there was a long-haired woman in green clothes.
She has a graceful figure, suspended in the air with a dignified sitting posture with her legs hooked up. She wears cyan embroidered stockings on her feet, with her toes slightly upwards. Her long, white and smooth legs are exposed, and the curves of her legs are very eye-catching.
This woman who looks inhuman at first sight is Ao Yuto-sama of Isehara.
Under the Qingxing Lantern, there is a classical standing lamp about one meter high. The lampshade is a ghostly cyan color and the light is twinkling.
Countless papers are flying up and down around this green lamp.
These paper documents were all submitted by the countermeasures room.
It records a large amount of recent information and stories related to Dream Boy.
Poof.
In the green lantern, tongues of green fire spewed out, igniting pages of white paper and burning silently into balls of netherworld fire.
Qing Xingdeng was still sitting upright, silently controlling everything in front of him.
At a certain moment, her expression became slightly playful, and she said to herself in a somewhat joking tone: "It seems that the dog over there is jumping over the wall."
The long legs of this Tsukuyomi god changed their position and crossed each other, and the cuffs of his sleeves flicked.
Numerous ghost-colored fireballs were swept up by a whirlwind and splashed out in all directions. Wherever the firelight illuminated, even the space became distorted.
This strange scene continued for a while.
Qing Xingdeng let out a breath, slowly descended from mid-air, and touched the ground with his toes.
"grown ups?"
Quan Gongsi next to him took a step forward respectfully.
"What you want me to do is finally done. The other party's Hundred Ghost Lantern was destroyed by me. The old relics left by a fellow clan member many years ago are no match for my new lamp." Qing Qing Xing Deng nodded towards the old palace minister Quan, and finally added:
"But the controller of the Hundred Ghost Lantern is more difficult to deal with than expected. The other party seems to have a lot of resentment, and the degree of compatibility with the Hundred Ghost Lantern is beyond my imagination. That guy is about to collapse under that green lantern. At the moment of failure, he even sacrificed his own lifespan to keep the green lantern alive."
"My lord, you might as well speak more clearly."
"The Hundred Ghost Lantern can no longer directly create ghost stories. However, because of the operator's desperate behavior, you may have been in a lot of trouble in the past few days. It is very likely that an incalculable number of dream boys will come to reality. Come here. According to the characteristics of Yumeng, you may have to be mentally prepared to deal with a dream of ten thousand people."
"Ten thousand people...?"
"Yes. It's best to solve it once and for all. You don't have to worry about Mengnan's disaster in the future. If it can't be solved... think about how to explain to society why nearly ten thousand people suddenly fell asleep in sleep, and even die."
"Do you have a solution, sir?"
"How can I have it? It's not like you don't know that I can't live without Ise Shrine. Moreover, we agreed at the beginning to help you deal with each other's Hundred Ghost Lantern. This subsequent mess will have to be solved by your own people. By the way, don’t forget your promise to me, provide me with a hundred brand new stories, and each story must satisfy me.”
"We will."
"Don't be so grimacing, Shimazu Gonomiya. The loss of ten thousand people's dreams has been stopped. If I don't destroy the other party's Hyakki Lantern and allow the other party to continue to create Yumeno, the entire Kanto and surrounding areas will fall into a huge panic. You What we have to face may be a million-level dream? Why are you so serious? Just be happy."
"I know, I'll contact the countermeasures room right now."
…
Kamiyagawa got good news and bad news from the countermeasures room.
The good news is: the Aoi Lantern on Isehara has taken action and successfully destroyed the [Hyakki Lantern] held by the Utoki family. No more Yumeo will be artificially created in the future.
However, judging from the panic caused by Yumeno in the entire Kanto region, it cannot be ruled out that such strange rumors will naturally arise from public opinion and fear in the future.
But natural generation is definitely not as fast as artificial creation assisted by [Hundred Ghost Lantern].
In addition, the [Hundred Ghost Lantern] was destroyed, and the countermeasures room already has the possibility of reversely locating the home location through the foreign aid Qingxing Lantern.
The large-scale ghost stories brought about by Yumeo finally have good signs of ending.
The bad news is: the moment the Utoki family was destroyed by the [Hundred Ghost Lantern], a big wave came. They sacrificed their own life force as fire triggers and spread a lot of Yumeboy stories.
Because as long as the same dream boy's story corresponds to the keywords, it may be dreamed by multiple different people at the same time.
In the past few days, Kamiyagawa and the Countermeasures Room are likely to face a macro-dream involving tens of thousands of people.
It would be difficult to deal with a dream involving hundreds of people. A dream involving ten thousand people should be beyond the scope of the Dream-Eating Tapir.
Huge changes happened in a short period of time.
Overnight, a large number of people fell into a deep sleep throughout the Kanto region, including Tokyo and surrounding counties.
Even in places such as Hokkaido and Nagasaki, which are far away from Kanto, there are sporadic people who have been influenced by Yumeo.
The social impact of this sudden disaster was huge.
Gunma Prefecture and Tokyo's Chiyoda Ward, which were hardest hit by the disaster, even experienced a certain degree of social paralysis.
People were panicked for a while.
The impact of the large-scale arrival of Dreamboys is not limited to that. Not only are a large number of people on the social level sleeping and unconscious, but also some of the members of the Countermeasures Room's spiritualists who have not been affected by Dreamboys have been infected.
At first, the exorcists seemed to be quite immune to Meng Nan whose strength was only F to E level due to physical problems.
Now that there are spiritual masters falling into deep sleep, it shows that the strength of this wave of dream boys has definitely been strengthened.
And among the sleeping exorcists...
Including the one Kamiyagawa cares about most, Onizuka Kiri Hotaru.
The little witch went to Nagasaki yesterday following Granny Gu's instructions.
But not long after arriving at his destination, he fell into a coma.
What Kamiyagawa was worried about still happened.
Just leaving the Kanto region won't stop Yumeno from coming.
It's possible that Yumeo's influence was like a germ that he carried with him when Onizuka was active in Kanto. When they arrived in Nagasaki, Jia chose to risk his life to fight back because of Qing Xingdeng's interference. Yumeo's "germ" became stronger and was directly detonated.
…
In the countermeasures room.
"According to incomplete statistics, there are at least 40,000 people across the country who have fallen into the Dream Boy dream state, of which 30,000 are concentrated in the Kanto region."
"This dream boy disaster is completely different from the previous ones. Regardless of distance, everyone is trapped in the same dream and cannot be awakened."
"In the action team, Kamiyagawa, Master Hagiwara, and Ms. Nomoto, who previously had the ability to handle dreams of a hundred people, were unable to use their original methods to affect this macroscopic dream of 50,000 people."
"Everyone...although I don't want to admit it, we are in trouble."
This meeting of all members was hosted by Fu Niyi. Her face was not very good now and she looked very tired.
Granny Gu, who was sitting in the main seat in the conference room, also had a heavy expression.
Kamiyagawa, who had a close relationship with Juqiong Shrine, was similar. His face was uncertain, he was thinking about something, and he didn't seem to pay much attention to the content of the meeting.
He was looking at the seat next to him in a daze.
Sitting next to him was a somewhat familiar spirit exterminator.
However, Onizuka was supposed to sit here.
Dreams came to thousands of people overnight. In the morning, Kamiya tried to bring the dream-eating tapir into the dream of a client.
However, the ever-conquering Dream-Eating Tapir failed this time.
The little tapir in the Dreamland of Hundreds of People could barely handle it with its belly stretched open.
But now this dream that is entrenched in the entire Kanto region of thousands of people cannot even sneak into it directly. It is like there is a firewall blocking it, and the Dream-Eating Tapir is completely blocked from the dream.
