Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 47

After dinner, Lu Zizhen called again.

"Hello? Is Dou Tang there? Is he there? Is he there? Is he there...?"

Dou Tang moved the phone a little further away, while Huai Yin turned down the TV volume—the two were watching a movie.

"I'm not deaf, what's wrong with you? Are you stuttering?"

Lu Zizhen smiled happily and said, "No, no, it's just that I've had some good news recently, which makes me quite happy, hahaha... Oh right, let's get down to business."

She lowered her voice and said, "Are you free next week? There's an exorcism event nearby, and I wanted to ask if you'd like to go."

“It’s okay if you don’t go, another group of people have already gone, but I think you might be interested.”

next week?

Dou Tang refused without even thinking.

"No, the school is having a school trip next week, and I'm going. Huaiyin will be going too."

"Oh..." Lu Zizhen responded, then said, "Taking Huaiyin out to play? That's great. I won't bother you any longer. Have fun."

She thought about it for a moment, and it made sense. It was really rare for Huaiyin to go out... especially since it wasn't related to anything supernatural. Huaiyin hadn't taken a trip like this even once in the past year.

Let her enjoy it, Lu Zizhen thought.

"Alright, have fun with your sister, I'll transfer you some money." Lu Zizhen declared her richness before hanging up the phone.

Less than a minute later, Tou Tang received a bank text message on his phone. When he opened it, he saw that it contained 400,000 yen.

This guy is way too rich...

However, Dou Tang felt perfectly at ease with it; he didn't participate in the website's operation and treated it all as the website's profit.

"Thanks, and I hope you have a safe exorcism." Dou Tang replied to Lu Zizhen with a text message.

After sending the text message, Dou Tang smiled and muttered to himself, "Although I know it's a benefit, it really feels like I'm being kept."

Huaiyin turned her head curiously: "What? What did you say, brother?"

"It's nothing." Dou Tang stroked Huai Yin's hair and said, "Speaking of which, how about we go out and buy some supplies for our trip tomorrow?"

Huaiyin's expression immediately turned strange: "Brother...don't you have to go to school anymore?"

"I'm skipping class, anyway, it's a regular thing for me."

Huaiyin suddenly frowned and reached out to pinch Doutang's cheek.

"Brother...how could you do this? Skipping class is something only delinquents do!"

I just acted as a delinquent before I went home... Dou Tang grinned and said, "So, are you going or not?"

"...Yes, of course I'll go."

Huaiyin picked up the black cat beside her and hugged it, then said, "And we also need to buy some litter boxes and things like that, right?"

The black cat had a look of surprise on its face, as if to say, "I'm going to have a toilet now?"

Dou Tang glanced at it, nodded, and said, "Alright... how about we get it spayed/neutered while we're at it?"

Black cat: "??????"

Chapter 89 The School Trip Begins

The few days passed quickly, and before we knew it, it was time to go on the school trip.

In the morning, Dou Tang packed his things. The two of them packed all their luggage into three bags: two hiking backpacks and one gym bag. Dou Tang carried one on his back and one on his shoulder, then carried one in one hand and used the other hand to pull Huai Yin.

Seeing her brother fully armed, Huaiyin couldn't help but laugh.

This school trip will last for seven days, which is quite long. The long-distance bus is already parked on campus.

The two were just about to leave.

Huaiyin was carrying a shoulder bag containing her personal belongings, which she wouldn't even let Dou Tang see. She tightened her grip on the bag and looked into the room, saying, "Brother, are you sure you don't need to worry about the cat?"

The black cat slowly followed them out of the house, opened its mouth wide and yawned, giving Dou Tang and Huai Yin a disdainful look with a very human-like gaze.

Dou Tang sniffed unhappily, but still explained, "It's okay, it was originally a stray cat. It roams freely when we're not around, so it won't die."

"If you get run over by a car or something, there's nothing you can do, right?"

Huaiyin quickly retorted coquettishly, "Brother! How can you say that!"

Dou Tang scoffed, while the black cat rolled its eyes and quickly ran away.

Damn it, I almost got neutered last time, I'd better make a run for it.

Watching the black cat cleverly run downstairs, Huaiyin said with some disappointment, "Brother... what if it doesn't come back? Our house is so small, it probably won't be comfortable living here..."

Dou Tang patted her head and said, "Don't worry, with such a lovely girl like you here, it won't want to leave."

Huaiyin blushed and tugged at her hair: "What nonsense... Brother, you seem to have changed a lot lately."

Dou Tang asked curiously, "Oh? It's changed? How has it changed?"

"You don't refuse to let me call you brother anymore, and you seem... much more optimistic." Huaiyin tugged at the strap of her shoulder bag, her clear eyes reflecting Doutang's smiling face. "And the things you say... aren't as cold as before."

Dou Tang thought about it after hearing this, and realized that

I do seem to be laughing more lately than before.

But why? He thought about it for a long time but couldn't find the answer; he just wanted to laugh.

Huaiyin was quite happy with his change, saying, "I like you like this. Before, you always looked so bitter and resentful, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with you, stubbornly rejecting everything... But it's different now."

She wanted to take Dou Tang's hand but hesitated, then said after a pause, "I think you're better this way."

Dou Tang hummed in response, but said nothing more, and the two fell into an awkward silence.

This made Huaiyin feel a little uneasy.

Is he angry? Oh dear, I shouldn't have said those things... How stupid of me, I just blurted them out because of his temper.

Dou Tang suddenly started walking without saying a word, and Huai Yin slowly followed.

School is closed today, but a group of people, mostly second-grade students, still gathered at the school gate.

In recent years, the birth rate has been declining, and even in the most densely populated Tokyo, the number of students in schools has been decreasing year by year. Not to mention that Yiyan Private Academy is essentially a school with good discipline. Although it is not as high-end as a private school, the threshold is still not low. Therefore, the entire second year of high school has only a little over a hundred students, divided into three classes.

The three classes were going to different places, but they all departed on the same day, so a lot of people came, including many relatives who came to see them off.

Dou Tang, unsurprisingly, saw... the bald Yang Ping.

Although he was dressed in simple casual clothes, the somewhat dazed and fierce aura he exuded could not conceal his identity. In other words, he was a complete delinquent in terms of his demeanor, so people around him avoided him.

There were several plastic bags at his feet, all filled with snacks.

That's strange... He's not from this school either.

Wait... a bad feeling.

Sure enough, upon seeing Dou Tang, he quickly ran over and reached out to take the bag from Dou Tang's body.

"Kiryu-nii, you've worked hard..."

Dou Tang quickly took two steps back to avoid him and said, "I only told you I was going on a trip, and you guessed I was going on a school trip? And you even blocked me at the door?"

Yangping quickly shook his head and waved his hands: "No, Kiryu-nii, I just came to give you some things! We all bought a lot of snacks, and we hope you can take them with you on your way!"

You don't even mind carrying four or five bags of snacks...

Dou Tang quickly shook his head: "No need, I've brought enough snacks. I appreciate your kind offer, but you can go back now."

Yangping felt a pang of disappointment, but when he glanced at Huaiyin, his eyes lit up again.

"This beautiful... little sister must be Kiryu-nii's sister! She's so cute! Little sister, would you like some snacks, Ayane?"

Dou Tang quickly dismissed him, saying, "Stop fooling around, hurry up and go, call me if you need anything."

Seeing that Dou Tang was about to kick him, Yang Ping picked up his snacks with a pitiful expression, bowed, and prepared to leave.

Dou Tang called him back and said, "Hey, don't throw away those snacks. Give them to your underlings and treat everyone to another meal. I'll transfer the money to you later."

Yangping was immediately deeply moved: "I knew Kiryu-nii was actually a kind person! Kiryu-nii!"

"Get out of here!"

Yangping happily rolled away.

After dealing with the minor incident, Dou Tang led Huaiyin to Teacher Xingzi, who was chatting among a group of parents. After saying hello, he took Huaiyin to the car.

There were quite a few people on the bus by now, but I didn't see Chinatsu Kume. It seemed she had work to do and couldn't come, which made Tou feel a little disappointed.

Although Chinatsu Kume is a troublesome woman in some ways, Toudou is still looking forward to her coming, mainly because... perhaps she can spend more time with Honey.

But Huaiyin didn't seem to care; since that was the case, Dou Tang didn't matter.

The two found two seats on the left side of the bus, with Dou Tang sitting by the aisle and Huai Yin by the window.

Soon, everyone in the class arrived. Dou Tang greeted Chang Yichui briefly, and then stopped paying attention to the others.

Although the other students were curious about Huaiyin, who was as cute as a porcelain doll, they shrank back when they saw Doutang.

This annoyed Dou Tang. Although his classmates usually didn't bother him, he didn't want his presence to affect the atmosphere of Huaiyin's friendships or other people's travels.

So he simply pulled out the pink rabbit eye mask that Huaiyin used, and regardless of whether it looked out of place on him, he covered his eyes, put in earplugs, and started pretending to be asleep.

Seeing Dou Tang enter a withdrawn mode, the twin girls in the front seat finally dared to turn around and look at Huai Yin curiously.

"Um... excuse me, are you Kiryu-kun's sister?"

Huaiyin nodded, and just then, the bus started moving.

The school trip began, but what Toudou didn't know was that at the same time, another convoy was also heading towards Chiba Prefecture.

There was a pure black Volkswagen Beetle in the convoy.

Chapter 90 Kamogawa City

Kamogawa City, located on the coast.

Here, you can gaze out at the vast ocean from the Taihai coast. The fierce sea winds bombard this tiny, concave city, then flow into the deep mountains along the ravines, blowing past rows of tall, bright red torii gates.

Nestled in the mountains behind Kamogawa City are dozens of shrines and temples. Following the narrow valley terrain of Kamogawa City inwards, the city's edge is dotted with torii gates leading into the deep mountains.

As you walk deeper into the mountains, shrines are hidden in the deep green forest, serene and solemn.

If I had to make a comparison, it would be like Mount Wutai, which has fewer tourists? That was Dou Tang's first thought when he heard the introduction.

There are many shrines, but they are not ostentatious. Kamogawa City quietly overlooks the ocean and silently watches over the countless places where gods reside.

But the students are concerned about something else entirely. In addition to the sea, the Kamogawa City Aquarium, located by the sea, also offers marine animal shows!

It's fair to say that Class 2-B came here specifically for this reason!

For these young people, the romantic aquarium is much more attractive than those lifeless shrines!

Sunshine, beaches—be sure to enjoy them while early summer is still fresh and the weather is warm!

The girl lifted the hem of her swimsuit with a skirt, and the warm sunlight shone on her body, making the youthful and immature body hairs shimmer in the light, as if gilding her with a golden shawl!

The young men put on shorts, revealing their muscular, masculine bodies and...legs...

The one above isn't very good, so let's skip it.

Laughter and cheers filled the air, and there was also a must-have activity at night—the test of courage!

A boy and girl who liked each other walked together in the dark mountains, whispering sweet nothings under the torii gate, looking at the lights below in the distance. Their wet lips parted slightly to express their feelings, and then... when they descended the mountain, everything seemed like a different world!

I'm so excited just thinking about it!

Ms. Kyoko's words brought the atmosphere to its peak.

"Classmates, we're very lucky! There will be a temple fair in Kamogawa City soon! Because there are many shrines here, they often sponsor temple fairs in the city!"

temple fair!

The students were in an uproar, but many also expressed regret that they hadn't brought a kimono.

Dou Tang lifted his blindfold and peeked out, only to find Huai Yin leaning out of the front seat and chatting with two little girls.

...That's pretty good.

It seems that Huaiyin is not as withdrawn as she thought.

But something was off about what they were talking about. Dou Tang took off his earphones and heard the three of them having a heated discussion.

"So... ladies, Fall Guy is definitely a good guy! Look at him, he only banishes ghosts and stuff, isn't he cool!"
