Chapter 336

"Then pay attention to any changes here. If you find any evil creatures, whether they are invading or escaping, please tell me immediately."

"Understood!" Ying Yi replied excitedly and ran off.

Belldandy, standing nearby, seemed confused and asked, "I don't know what Vivian and Ying Yi said, but is this okay?"

"Of course," Li Pu said confidently. "Belldandy's greatest kindness to humanity is trust, and respect and trust are the strongest fighting force."

"Letting Ying Yi feel our trust and know that he can also help in these matters is the greatest joy for him. So Belldandy believes in Ying Yi more than thinking about protecting him at all times."

Belldandy glanced at Ying Yi, who had run away. She seemed not to understand, but she also understood a lot. She said, "I understand."

"There are still quite a few onlookers." Li Pu looked around and said, "Disperse the unimportant people, but don't disperse everyone. I think that Tang Kannonji is still very useful."

"Understood." Belldandy nodded and said, "Guiding star, please guide those lost children back to the other side of dreams."

On the other side, a scruffy-bearded middle-aged man suddenly stretched and said, "I feel so sleepy. Ichigo, Karin, Yuzu, are you still planning to watch this? It's been so long and they still haven't shown up. Maybe today's program will have to be canceled."

"Ah~ I have to open tomorrow." The uncle said, sounding very sleepy, "I can't take it anymore. I'm middle-aged and my health isn't what it used to be. I need to go home and rest."

"I want to go back too," said the brown-haired girl named Yuzu. "I have class tomorrow, and if I doze off in class, the teacher will scold me."

Seeing his father and sister suddenly looking listless, Ichigo said helplessly, "You two insisted on coming. You were full of energy just now, how come you're all sleepy all of a sudden?"

"In that case, Karin." Ichigo had just called out the name of his other younger sister.

"This is something the Goddess did." Lucia suddenly stood next to Ichigo and said, "They've started to disperse the crowd."

"Goddess?" Ichigo's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly remembered their conversation; the Goddess named Vivian had said that something was indeed hidden in this building. Did that mean they were about to take action?

Ichigo glanced around the scene; the number of people had greatly decreased, and even the students who had just arrived had already left.

Now only Orihime Inoue, Uryu Ishida, Chad Yasutora, and a few other onlookers he didn't recognize remained.

"Ichigo- kun," Orihime Inoue asked, pointing at Li Pu and Belldandy, "They...they don't seem to be human, do they?"

"They are Goddess." Uryu Ishida pushed up his glasses and said, "Genuine Goddess. I never expected them to be here."

"Goddess?" Orihime looked at Li Pu and Belldandy with surprise and admiration, saying, "This is truly the first time I've seen a real Goddess. She is so beautiful. A true Goddess."

"Goddess, huh?" Chad Yasutora didn't seem to have much admiration for them, but rather looked thoughtfully at the two Goddess over there and said, "I just felt a strange urge, was it them who did it?"

"Yes, it was them who did it just now." Lucia looked at the Goddess with a slightly wary expression and said, "The Goddess and the others are born with great power, which gives them a great advantage over other races, including the Grim Reapers. They can easily modify human memories and even directly interfere with and influence the behavior of ordinary people. If they want to, they can even directly influence time and reality."

"They're incredibly strong." Uryu Ishida adjusted his glasses and said, "Then their actions must be related to the screams they just heard, right?"

"It seems even the Goddess senses a potentially dangerous situation."

"You look like you're trembling," Ichigo said, with a hint of provocation. "Are you scared?"

"How could that be?" Uryu Ishida sneered. "This is excitement, the challenge of facing a stronger enemy. This is much more exciting than those boring matches before. Besides, even if you are afraid, I am not."

"Hmph~" Ichigo retorted without backing down, "Why would I be afraid?"

"Beep beep beep beep~"

Just as Ichigo and Uryu Ishida were bickering, the roar of a helicopter suddenly filled the sky, drawing everyone's attention upwards. A helicopter with a flamboyant paint scheme flew down above them.

Before anyone could figure out what was going on, they saw what looked like a figure jumping off the helicopter.

The figure who had just left the helicopter quickly deployed his parachute.

Putting aside the people hanging on the parachute, the parachute itself was incredibly flashy! It even had the three characters 'Date Man' written on it in bold strokes.

"Ah~" Li Pu said, looking at the sky with a twitching mouth, "This guy... really is very Japanese."

Yeah, their aesthetic sense is incredibly bizarre and their style is downright childish, especially among these actors and hosts who appear on variety shows. Li Pu just feels like almost none of their clothes are normal.

"Vivian!" Ying Yi suddenly shouted into the communication channel at that moment, "There are strange changes in this hospital."

"It looks like purple smoke is coming out of the hospital."

"Purple smoke?" Li Pu turned his attention back to the hospital.

"This is... an abnormally high Honkai Index!"

"It looks like this Kannonji..."

"It seems there really is something there."

Chapter 390 Something's Up

"Ah~ Hahaha~"

Tang Kannonji fully demonstrated its unique skill of ensuring that no one else would feel awkward as long as it didn't. It started with its signature move and a big laugh, followed by a series of Japanese-accented English phrases that seemed intended to lighten the mood.

Finally, he greeted the audience.

But...

But none of these attempts received a response from the onlookers. Because of the earlier shriek and Belldandy's dispersal of the crowd, there were hardly any people left at the scene besides the Grim Reapers and the two Goddess.

Even the host rushed over to make some arrangements and said, "I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry, Mrs. Tang. I was feeling a little tired, so I took a nap in the car."

"Starts!" the host announced loudly. "So today's 'Ghost Detective' is an emergency broadcast, and it's also the first time this program has been broadcast live. The location our ghost detective will be visiting today is here, in Katsumi City, at the Three Bucket Surgical Hospital! It's said that strange screams are heard every night, and according to some witnesses, strange creatures often appear here."

"Even more significant is that after the bankruptcy of the Three Buckets Surgical Hospital, some local businessmen attempted to acquire and rebuild it. However, each reconstruction was marred by inexplicable accidents, and the acquirers themselves died due to various mysterious incidents and reasons." The host showed the building behind him and the Tang Kannonji, saying, "So how will he deal with the vengeful spirits lurking in the Three Buckets Surgical Hospital tonight?"

"Him!" the host exclaimed in a high-pitched voice, "The messenger of hell, the super popular spiritual medium of the new era!"

"Tang Dynasty Kannonji!"

Then it fell silent! Although the host had tried his best, not only was the prepared opening show missed because of the absurd reason of oversleeping, but the once lively scene was now almost empty.

He had tried his best to warm up the crowd, but facing only the Goddess Group, the Death Group, and a few onlookers who were just there for the spectacle, or rather, not exactly well-intentioned...

The atmosphere just doesn't feel right.

"It's alright." Beneath those strange goggles, Kannonji swept his gaze, which he considered sharp, over the group of people present. "It's an incredibly powerful vengeful spirit. It seems this operation is very dangerous. I can already see that vengeful spirit."

"If I'm not mistaken, it was that powerful vengeful spirit that drove away the audience."

"They're really not at all peaceful," Kannonji said in a deep voice. "They seem to be trying to scare me, Lord Kannonji, the messenger of hell, away with such cunning methods!"

"Hmph! How could such a thing be possible! I won't be scared by such a small trick! Semlls like BAD Spirts!"

The loud and excited shouts from Kannonji did not cause any fluctuation in the atmosphere at the scene.

"This ability to make sure no one else is embarrassed if I'm not embarrassed is truly masterful," Li Pu said, feeling embarrassed himself. "And I have to say, this guy is really something."

"What?" Ying Yi asked curiously in the channel.

"Parachuting from a helicopter is not something an ordinary person can do," Li Pu said. "Even for trained people, it is extremely dangerous. And at the height he was at, even a trained person would basically have to choose between dying from the fall or being seriously injured."

"This guy looks completely unharmed, which at least means that his physical strength is already above that of an ordinary person."

"And..." Li Pu said uncertainly, "I have a bad feeling about this."

"This guy... it seems... if I'm not mistaken, he's going to make fun of me and Belldandy!"

This guy just mentioned "them," right? And he said someone deliberately dispersed the crowd, right? He's been staring at us ever since we landed, right?

So...

"The vengeful spirit is right there!" Kannonji suddenly pointed at Li Pu and Belldandy and said, "I can already see the evil aura emanating from them."

"Pfft..." Li Pu immediately spat it out.

Ichigo and Uryu also spewed out the same spray.

"So this guy is an idiot?" Ichigo pointed at Kannonji and said, "Can't he see at all that the vengeful spirit he's mistaking is actually Goddess? I have a feeling this guy is going to anger those two Goddess."

I have a feeling this Kannonji will turn out badly.

"However, on the other hand," Yulong suddenly said, "This guy can indeed see things that others can't."

The man standing in front of the hospital seemed a little embarrassed. He looked at Belldandy and Li Pu. He admitted that the two girls were very beautiful, and this Kannonji... well, those exorcisms, blessings, and stuff, you know what I mean. But please, Master, this is a live broadcast! You're making it impossible to even smooth things over.

"That spiritual medium..." the host said dejectedly, "They just look like ordinary girls..."

"NO! NO! NO!" Tang Kannonji frantically pointed and said, "You can't see the ominous aura on them, believe me. Their beautiful appearance is just a deceptive illusion. I can expose their true nature with just a little trick."

"Don't be fooled by them, my dear friend."

Although Tang Kannonji said so, the host still didn't quite believe it; he genuinely couldn't see anything. These two girls really didn't seem like evil spirits.

"A vengeful spirit..." Li Pu was speechless. Was this really some kind of bizarre aesthetic? Speaking of which, the abbot of that temple initially treated Belldandy as some kind of demon or monster.

Watching the Kannonji man walk towards her with a confident and compassionate expression.

Li Pu really wanted to beat this guy into a vegetable.

"Wandering souls filled with resentment." Kannonji said, "This world is not a place you should be in. I know my actions may anger you. But the human world is not a place you should linger in."

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, those who should leave should leave, and those who should stay should stay."

"Please allow me to perform a ritual to help you pass on to the afterlife."

"Apologize..." Li Pu suppressed the urge to punch someone and said, "We are not evil spirits or vengeful spirits. But don't you plan to check on that hospital? Because of you, the real souls of the dead in that hospital have started to stir."

Although Li Pu didn't want to take action against ordinary people, if this guy continued to do this, Li Pu wouldn't mind giving him a physical send-off.

Of course, if he were willing to look at the hospital behind him that was already starting to stir.

Li Pu was still willing to let him off the hook.

Chapter 391 What did you do to my MEI?

'This is ridiculous!'

Li Pu, barely suppressing the urge to kill this Tang Kannonji, said, "Mr. Spiritual medium, don't you think the situation behind you is even worse?"

If you had just glanced behind you, you wouldn't have said those things to her and Belldandy. Judging from the current situation, this guy is probably a complete idiot who can see souls but actually has absolutely no experience, right?

It's incredibly lucky that he's still alive, given his blindness to talent.

"Two vengeful spirits who are attached to the human world~" Tang Kannonji said to himself, "Why are you attached to the human world? I am the messenger of hell. I once again advise you not to be attached to the human world. If you are willing to leave on your own, I will not do anything more. If you are unwilling to let go of this obsession, then do not blame me for being ruthless."

"Are you just talking to yourself and won't listen to our advice?" Li Pu was really angry at this guy who completely ignored her words.

No! Look behind you! Behind you! You idiot! Li Pu was getting a little anxious. Did this guy completely ignore what was behind him and just take them as the root cause?

"Oh! It seems this paranormal investigation is truly beyond expectations." The host suddenly shouted, "Could those two beautiful ladies really be the legendary evil spirits? Or have they been possessed by evil spirits? Let's wait and see how paranormal investigator Mr. Tang handles it."

"It seems you are unwilling to leave on your own." Kannonji pulled out a stick that looked somewhat normal and said, "Evil spirits who have committed numerous crimes, I, Tang Kannonji, will not allow you to act recklessly here and harm this area."

"Evil spirits?" Belldandy said, not understanding Kannonji's actions. "We are not evil spirits, we are Goddess."

"Hmph! Now you dare to deceive the world in the name of Goddess?" Kannonji raised her staff and shouted, "Then I will punish you in the name of hell! Semlls like BAD Spirts! Hah!"

"Gah~"

"You bastard! What are you going to do to my MEI?!"

Before the sound of the Kannonji had even faded completely, it emitted a cry like a quack's, as if its fate had been seized, followed by an angry roar, swift movements, and large feet.

Like a whirlwind, the Tang Kannonji was kicked flying and crashed heavily behind the host!

Kevin! The strongest human finally couldn't hide anymore and jumped out, kicking Kannonji hard and saying viciously, "You bastard, how dare you disrespect my MEI! Believe me or not, I'll kill you!"

"Oh! A sudden and shocking turn of events! Who is this unexpected troublemaker?!" The host immediately became excited. Whether it was the Kannonji's sudden announcement that the two girls were evil spirits or this unexpected troublemaker, tonight's episode was definitely more exciting than any previous one!

Ratings! The ratings will definitely double!

The host was very excited, but still pretended to be concerned and ran to Kannonji's side, saying, "Mr. Tang! Are you alright?"

Please don't die or get hurt, tonight's ratings depend on you!

"Hahaha~" The Kannonji who had been kicked and fallen to the ground suddenly jumped up, crossed his arms in his signature pose, and laughed loudly, "I am the messenger of hell, how could anything happen to me?"

"We were careless. We didn't expect those two vengeful spirits to have accomplices." Kannonji pointed at Kevin and said, "They seem to be people who have been bewitched by the vengeful spirits."

"Ghost my ass! My lovely Mei is Goddess! Goddess! How could she possibly be that kind of boring vengeful spirit!" Kevin roared angrily, "You..."

"Kevin!" Li Pu suddenly stopped Kevin and said, "Calm down!"

"Something's wrong!"

"Belldandy!" Li Pu called out, Belldandy immediately understood. She took off a golden pendant from her earring and threw it at Tang Kannonji. The golden pendant instantly turned into a blue light, striking Tang Kannonji and pinning him to the courtyard wall behind him.

"In the name of the Goddess, we refuse contact!" Belldandy crossed her arms and a purple transparent dome enveloped her.

"Expel them!"
