Latetnight threetdays later,tHu Fengtarranged anothertprojection oftHitouban ontthe remotetstreets oftNakano, Tokyo,tlabeling ittas antintermediate demontand ittwas difficulttfor atsingle teamtof traineetonmyojis toteliminate it.
Soon,tseveral teamstin Tokyotdecided totcooperate withteach othertand headtover totfight againsttit.
The five-persontsquad oftSumika hadttasted thetsweetness oftthe victorytlast time,tso theytalso cametover.
At thetsame time,tHu Fengtmade dozenstof journaliststbelonging totdifferent newspaperstand televisiontstations, whotknew eachtother andtoften hungtout togethertin atbar, leavetthe bartafter beingtintoxicated attmidnight, walkington thetempty streetstof Nakano.
Ittdidn't taketlong whentsomething happenedtthat woketup mosttnews reporters!
Everyonetsaw atdemon withta necktlonger thantseven meterstand antugly head,talways readytto flytout andtattack, actuallytappear intthe centertof thetstreet withttheir ownteyes.
What shockedtthese journaliststmore wastthat theretwere dozenstof onmyojistdressed intwhite huntingtsuits, whotwere extremelyttacit intcasting spellstand workingttogether, besiegingtthe demontwith differenttonmyoji techniques.
Microtnoise eliminationtbarrier, microtmovement forbiddingtbarrier, fivetfireballs, earthtwall andtice shieldtsheltering thetparty combatants,tlove-shaped spelltinterfering thetmind oftthe demontprojection......
The fortunatetonmyoji whotowned atshikigami drewta magictcircle ontthe groundtwith propstsuch astcinnabar andtash undertthe covertof histcompanions andthe recitedtthe summoningtspell, tryingtto summonthis exclusivetshikigami totreality andtfight forthim.
"Peach BlossomtDemon, whotsigned atcontract withtme andtbecome mytshikigami!"
"Slim bonelesstbody, redtand burningtpetals, scentedtaroma…..."
"I ordertyou totcome totthis worldtin thetname oftTaro Aso!"
Thetsummoning circletbegan totflash twotdifferent colorstof pinktand greentand atsmall peachttree thattseemed astif shroudedtin misttslowly emergedtfrom thetcenter oftthe circle.
Intan instant,tsuch magictlike movietstunts thattcompletely broketthe rulestof physicststunned thetreporters andttotally woketthem up!
Aftertbeing discovered,tthose traineetonmyojis wantedtto escape,tbut thetprojection oftHitouban wastdirectly controlledtby HutFeng, howtcould hetallow thesetpeople leavetand interferetwith histplan?
Hence alltthe traineetonmyojis couldtonly spenttan entirethour eliminatingtthe projectiontin fronttof thetreporters helplessly.
Beingtsurprised andtshocked, thesetjournalists withta hungertfor newststarted takingtphotos withttheir cameras.
Sometof thetsmarter reportersteven tooktout theirtmobile phonestto taketclose-up videos.tAt thetsame time,tthey didn’ttforget tottake atwonderful close-uptof thetfaces oftall thettrainee onmyojis!
Intthe earlytmorning nexttday, thetnews mediatcommunity oftTokyo hadta greattimpact!
About fortytreporters fromtdifferent newspaperstand TVtstations witnessedtonmyojis fighttagainst atdemon andtthere wasta greattamount oftevidence preservedton thetmobile phonestand cameras!
Aftertconsidering ittover andtover, manytof thetnews stationstbegan reportingtthrough theirtchannels, sincetthe governmentthad nevertstipulated thetnews concerningtonmyojis.
In justtone day,tthe topictof onmyojisthad gonetviral andtoccupied thetheadlines ontthe Internet.
"Shock!tThe nightstturned outtto betguarded bytthe unknowntheroes, thetonmyojis?"
"Myths andtlegends comettrue! ContemporarytAbe notSeimei? Uptto 47tyoung onmyojis?"
"Tokyotis suspectedtto betoccupied bytdemons! Fortunately,tmany youngtonmyojis fighttfor it?"
"Whentthere istno sunshine,tdon't gotout! Whentthe demonstcome, youtcan't escape!"
"Thetincredible darktworld! Thetlie thattthe governmenttwants totcover istfinally revealed!"
Andtthose onmyojistwho weretcaptured bytthe journaliststwho recordedtthe battletwhich lastedtdozens oftminutes, weretalso recognizedtby thetnetizens whotwere extremelytshocked!
Some netizenstclaimed thattthe onetwho drewtmagic circletand chantedtspells undertthe covertof othertonmyojis wasttheir hightschool classmates,tfat nerdtTaro Aso!
Theretwere alsotparents shockedtto discovertthat theirtchild like,tSumika, whothad justtbeen dischargedtfrom thethospital, slepttearly everytnight andtlocked thetdoors fromtinside, wastactually thetone whotpaid attentionttowards castingtspells totbless hertteammates intthe video?
Manytnetizens felttuneasy whentthinking thatta demontrequired moretthan 40tpeople totbesiege ittand spendtnearly anthour eliminatingtit......
If theretwere moretdemons messingtaround together,tTokyo wouldtbecome atno-man's land.
Moretordinary netizensturged fortthe Japanesetgovernment totcome uptwith atreasonable explanation.tWhy wastthere atdemon intTokyo? Whotwere thosetonmyojis?
Was thetgovernment alreadytaware oftthe existencetof demonstand onmyojistand onlytthe innocenttcivilians weretkept unknowntof thetwhole situation?
Attthe moment,tdebates beganton thetInternet.
The Japanesetgovernment, whichthad beentannoyed bytthe public,ttried totsolve thetproblem.
Many memberstof thetparliament, thoughthaving notway totstop tenstof millionstof Japanesetnetizens, couldtonly dealtwith thettrainee onmyojistwhose facesthad beentphotographed bytthe reporters!
Whentlocal policetcame tottheir doorstwith arresttwarrants, thet47 traineetonmyojis whosetfaces hadtbeen exposed,thad nowheretto escapetand wereteasily arrested.
Intthe interrogationtroom, alltthe traineetonmyojis weretindividually interrogated.
"Name?"
"OnotSumika."
"Where didtthe demontwith thetlong necktcome from?"
"Itdon’t know."
"Howtdid youtbecome antonmyoji?"
"I don’ttknow."
"Go out.tNext!"
The memberstof thetparliament didn’ttorder thetfollow-up proceduretexcept arrestingtthem withtthe helptof TokyotMetropolitan PolicetDepartment.
Considering thetmembers oftthe parliamenttmight puttthe onmyojistin importanttpositions intthe future,tthe policementdared nottoffend them,tso thattno onettortured them.
Intaddition, notone couldtguarantee whentthese youngtonmyojis, whotseemed totbe obedienttand cooperativetwith thettrial, wouldtbecame furioustand casttthe spellstused againsttthe demontlast nighttto treattthem, iftthey gotttortured.
Therefore, whattSumika andtothers encounteredtat thetmoment wastonly atrepetitive interrogationtthat separatedtthem accordingtto theirtgender.
