Chapter 241 11: Early Detonation
"What? You want to tear down the Tokyo Resurrection Society? I don't agree. I absolutely don't agree!!"
Sakata had just woken up from the corner and was frightened to death by the topic raised by Noguchi. Then, perhaps because he felt that his performance was too tough and might offend the extraordinary person in front of him, he quickly lowered his voice and used a gentler tone.
"This, this is not something I can decide. Even though I am the chief priest of the Soul Summoning Society, I still need to be officially appointed. So for such an important matter, I must, definitely."
Noguchi didn't pay much attention to Sakata's explanations. He also knew that his request was simply digging into the official's roots. They would never agree unless they completely overthrew the superiors. However, if they did so, the future of this country would be in jeopardy.
America, which has been divided and has not yet been unified, has been in a tug of war for several years and has occasionally erupted in conflict, is their role model.
Miki Inagaki on the side was not too surprised by this. Her suggestion was just talk. In fact, she guessed that even if the spirit-calling society was demolished, it would not do much to reduce the evil hidden in it. After all, after the incident, this place would probably become a pile of rubble.
"I'll leave the next things to Director Noguchi. It's getting late and I need to go back to pray. I will go to the Special Affairs Bureau to discuss the specific situation with you tomorrow." After giving instructions, Inagaki flew away without any intention of staying any longer.
".Then may I ask, can the Soul Calling Society be reopened?" Seeing that the two did not seem to have any intention of forcing the demolition of the Soul Calling Society, Sakata breathed a sigh of relief and began to ask more practical questions. In his opinion, since the extraordinary incident has been resolved, it is only natural that the Soul Calling Society only needs to be renovated and should be able to reopen.
Just from this one glance, it is estimated that the losses are inevitable. We will have to tearfully take the taxpayers' hard-earned money. What a sin.
Noguchi watched Inagaki leave, then turned around and looked at him calmly, somewhat envious of his mentality: "Do you think this is the end?"
"Ah, is there more?" Sakata was not very clear about the division of supernatural powers, but this situation that mobilized so many supernatural beings could not be resolved?
"This is just an appetizer." Noguchi shook his head. "Next, the Tokyo Soul Resurrection Society will be completely taken over by the Special Affairs Bureau. I can give you half a day to collect your personal belongings. After half a day, the area will be officially under martial law. No entry is allowed without special reasons."
After saying that, Noguchi ignored him and turned to arrange the tasks, leaving Sakata Miyaji dumbfounded and his trembling little follower.
"The three monsters that appeared earlier were stronger than ordinary polluters, and were similar to the monsters sent by the Mother Goddess. I watched the battle videos several times and found that these monsters seemed to be quite clumsy in controlling their bodies. There was also a sense of patchwork overall." Saga pointed at the huge monster that was tied up tightly and had become a corpse. "But no monsters were found controlling the corpse. This is the preliminary test report."
"Director, the report is out." Tadashi ran over with a tablet in his hand. "From the corpse tissue, we detected features that match those of the former demon organization, but overall, it still looks more like the Moon Polluters."
So, this is a demonized polluter, and behind it, is the Mother Goddess trying to use the power of the devil to strengthen herself?
Real evidence confirms what Inagaki Miki said, although from the current perspective, the serious consequences that the other party just mentioned are not yet noticeable.
But Noguchi would not ignore the fact that this test result only detected less than 10% of the total demon organization, which obviously did not reach the limit. It was just unknown what the proportion of the previous samurai was. His spirituality was obviously higher than other monsters.
Unfortunately, the remains of the black warrior did not remain, but melted away directly.
If the monsters that appeared were all of the same level as the Black Knight, I'm afraid the battle just now would not be able to be resolved at the current cost.
At least half of the people present will be killed, and it is estimated that only people like Fengchuan who are obsessed with maintaining KDA can survive.
"I'm incredibly strong, you know that." Fengchuan, who was bragging to others, felt a chill on his back. He looked around warily and noticed Noguchi's inexplicable gaze.
That's not right. He hasn't gotten into any trouble, at least not in the past few days.
Withdrawing his gaze, Noguchi began to arrange the follow-up matters.
First, the Tokyo Requiem Society entered a normalized blockade to ensure that there are at least two extraordinary teams stationed at all times.
Second, formulate several Level 5 supernatural disaster emergency plans with the Spirit-Calling Society as the core.
Third, conduct a more detailed analysis and comparison of the monster corpses.
Fourth, all members of the Special Affairs Bureau canceled their vacations and watched today's battle video carefully. They also gave their own analysis and response strategies, which was equivalent to their review of the video.
The captains present looked at each other and could sense a bad atmosphere brewing. The last time they received a similar order was during the Iki Island incident.
And right now, things are happening in the core Chiyoda district, which can even be said to be right next to the Imperial Palace.
If the Emperor is accidentally photographed as a blur, huh? Why does it feel good?
At least that's what Fengchuan thought and he almost laughed out loud.
But unfortunately, he knew that the so-called Majesty had secretly moved to Kyoto a long time ago, so if you really want to be picky, maybe Kyoto is now the nominal capital of Japan.
"So, Sakata-kun, are we just going to let them desecrate our 2.5 million Heroic Spirits?!"
In the inner room of the Soul Calling Society, Gonji Yokoyama pointed with annoyance at the Special Affairs Bureau outside which had already begun to set up fortifications and detection equipment, and questioned Sakata, the chief priest in front of him.
Sakata's face turned dark. It seems like you were half dead just now when I asked you to come over for me. Now that things are over, you're full of energy again, right?
"Didn't you see what just happened?! That was a war between extraordinary people, covering the sky and the sun, with ice and fire. Look at my face, half of it is sunburned and the other half is frostbitten! Since you are so respectful of the heroic spirits, why don't you go talk to the Special Affairs Bureau and ask them to agree to let you stay here and worship them every day?"
Yokoyama shuddered and waved his hands quickly: "That's not necessary, but Lord Sakata, is it possible that they are deliberately exaggerating the matter in order to damage our reputation? You know, if we lose the Soul Calling Society or settle the accounts, you and I..."
Sakata, who was packing up stamped documents, paused with a serious look. He did have such concerns, and now they were pointed out blatantly by Yokoyama.
"What do you think?"
"It's not an idea. How about telling those adults our guess? Let them be a little careful to avoid being deceived by the Special Affairs Bureau."
Sakata thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with this. They would explain that it was just speculation anyway. This way, he could also put some pressure on the Special Affairs Bureau through those big shots.
Don't think that the traditionalists have no cards in their hands. There are still some Moon Initiators in the Self-Defense Forces who are on their side. If they really fight, both sides will suffer.
Moreover, according to the propaganda of the traditionalists in recent years, people have developed a fear of the excessive power of the extraordinary people. They are afraid that when the extraordinary people come to power, they, ordinary people, will become lower-class citizens and will never be able to stand up again.
Although the current Prime Minister Abe strictly speaking does have some extraordinary abilities, because he is a die-hard traditionalist and pro-American, no one will take the initiative to bring up this matter, and even if there are such remarks on the Internet, they will only be specious.
"Let's talk about it after we get out. I suspect the Special Affairs Bureau will monitor what we say in the Soul Summoning Society." Sakata lowered his voice, agreeing with Yokoyama's idea. After being busy in the Soul Summoning Society until the evening, Noguchi took the time to go back to the headquarters to discuss the next arrangements with Kuroki.
"The Prime Minister's pressure?" Noguchi drank a bottle of cold mineral water in one gulp and looked at Kuroki. "It shouldn't just be him, but also most of the right-wing families?"
"You can say that." Kuroki did not deny it and handed another bottle of water to Noguchi. "But there's no need to worry too much. They are just afraid that we will take advantage of this situation. As long as they can prove that the Soul Summoning Society is indeed a major threat, I think they will cut it off faster than anyone else."
"They have always been like this." Noguchi nodded, agreeing with Kuroki's words.
"So, is the situation really that serious? Such an order has not been issued for two years." Only the director can issue an order of this level, and Kuroki knew that Noguchi was not a person who would act recklessly, so he did not ask the reason at the first time and directly approved his application.
"Probably, it's more terrible than any of us thought." Noguchi repeated Inagaki's conclusion in detail.
Hei Mu frowned and pondered for a long time.
"So, this is a being that is scarier than the demons in New York and Mo City? Will the Supreme Being she mentioned take action? Do we need to ask the Holy Infant for help?"
"She will come over tomorrow. If you have any questions, you can ask them all at once. Although I don't think she has any reason to deceive us, we can't take her words as the only thing. Let's record it first and see what the Holy Infant Society says."
Compared to the mysterious Supreme Being, Noguchi actually prefers to believe in the Holy Child.
Of course, this is when there is no choice.
If given a choice, he only trusts his own investigation.
"Did anything happen in the bureau today?" Noguchi calmed down and asked casually.
"I was just about to tell you." Kuroki took out two forms. Noguchi took a look and saw that they were internal investigation application forms. No one had applied for this for a long time, but every time an application was made, it meant that the applicant had a good chance of success.
[Survey subject: Hiro Ozaki of the Ozaki Squad]
【Applicant: Guan Junyan】
[Survey subject: Tashiro team Izumi Ringo]
【Applicant: Guan Junyan】
After reading the reasons for the application at a glance, Guan Junyan finally expressed his hope to apply for avoidance of suspicion and have the case taken over by other teams.
"There is no other team suitable to take over now. The problem is that this may be a smokescreen released by other forces to disrupt our internal situation. After all, the timing is really a coincidence." Noguchi rubbed his brows, and his mind flashed through the impressions of Ozaki Hiro and Izumi Ringo in his mind.
Hiro Ozaki was a staff member transferred from the Ministry of Public Security when the Special Affairs Bureau was first established. He was both introverted and extroverted, and did not have many friends, but he completed his tasks relatively well. He was promoted through hard work, and finally three years ago, he and Noguchi became the last batch of people who took pills in the Special Affairs Bureau.
Izumi Ringo, who awakened as a Moon Initiator a year ago, has powerful abilities related to time manipulation and has always been "monopolized" by the Tashiro team. Only half a year after officially joining the team, he has already ranked in the top three on the Moon Initiator kill list. The only problem is that when encountering an evenly matched or powerful enemy, he tends to go into a frenzy and is difficult to command.
However, it is worth noting that Izumi Ringo has an older sister, Izumi Sayuri, who once belonged to Seki Toshihiko's team and died in the Iki Island incident two years ago.
"Agree to launch an internal investigation, the mission is encrypted."
Big things were about to happen, and he didn't want a time bomb inside.
the next day.
Amid the busy atmosphere of the Special Affairs Bureau, Miki Inagaki came alone, without her prayer group.
There were not many people in the meeting room, namely Noguchi, Kuroki, Saga and Inagaki.
"What we can confirm now is that the so-called Mother Goddess has already reached out to the place where the flowers of evil gather in the country - the Tokyo Soul Recalling Society, trying to absorb the overwhelming evil thoughts therein to strengthen herself."
"Not only will an extremely terrifying existence be born, but the vitality of the entire country will be taken away, the sky will collapse, the earth will split, and the land will sink with a tsunami."
"In order to prevent all this from happening, we must detonate this cancer before the next full moon and let the flower of evil bloom ahead of time."
The people from the Special Affairs Bureau looked at each other, and Saga coughed lightly and was the first to ask questions.
"I sensed a faint evil aura in the Soul Summoning Society. Is this the evil you mentioned, or is it the intervention of the Mother Goddess?"
"It has nothing to do with the Mother Goddess's unity. The evil thoughts there are caused by the sins committed by our ancestors. I could vaguely feel it before, but I didn't dare to take action against it because I didn't think anyone could deal with a demon of that level. But now, there is no other way. If the Mother Goddess gets this power, it will not only be a blasphemy against the Supreme Being, but also a prelude to the destruction of the world."
"Ms. Inagaki, how do you do the early detonation you mentioned? Do you use your abilities?" Kuroki asked.
Inagaki nodded: "I will accumulate strength, and before the next full moon, I will launch a [Demon Proclamation] against the Tokyo Soul Revelation Society, exposing its true form and leaving it with nowhere to hide. By then, the power of the Mother Goddess will be driven away by the evil thoughts of the subject, and Her arrangements will be destroyed in an instant."
"Based on what you just said, this is not something we can solve." Noguchi said.
"Right, so we need help." No one present understood better than Inagaki how terrible demons would be born from evil thoughts of that magnitude. "It's been three years since the Second Anti-Demon Joint Conference."
"About three and a half years, to be exact," Saga answered without hesitation.
"Really? Now, we need a new joint meeting to unite all the forces we can to resolve this demonic advent caused by us."
