Ryota also felt quite embarrassed by crushing Hayasaka's cellphone.
However, this emotion was quickly dissipated by the surging rage.
He took deep breaths for a minute before he managed to suppress his anger and not lose his temper.
After all, smashing other people's phones, but also blaming other people, and getting mad at them… This is really a jerk.
Holding this mentality and trying to hold back, Ryota took Hayasaka to buy two new cell phones and came back.
Fortunately, Hayasaka's mobile phone data is backed up in the cloud disk, and the card slot is also good, the mobile phone card is fine. Otherwise, it will take time to recover.
Ryota learned his lesson this time.
When making a call, place the phone directly in your trouser pocket, then use the newly purchased app earphones to answer and listen.
After calling the minister again, he immediately asked:
"What is an evil god called? Are there many of them?"
"The evil god's nature is similar to what I just described. You can think of them as the evil gods defined by Zoroastrianism. Regarding the amount…"
The minister paused, as if remembering something. After a few seconds, he said:
"There are seven in total—Extinct Star Cluster, Singularity, Locust, Bloody Garden, Empty Burial Circle, Dragon Skeleton, and True Monarch."
"...Are these names serious?"
"What is wrong?"
"Forget it, it's okay if you think it's okay."
Ryota heard that the Japanese were really good at middle school.
The minister went on to say:
"These are the seven evil gods that appeared in history. Devotees spread all over the world. If the five evil gods didn't disappear suddenly, their adherents lost power and were found by the psykers one by one. Otherwise, the world right now might be in chaos."
"Five disappeared suddenly?"
"Yeah, it disappeared suddenly, but we haven't been able to figure out the time and reason until now."
The minister replied: "However, according to speculation, this incident should have something to do with Nightmare, but she hasn't made contact with our people, and we can't get any more detailed information."
"Nightmare... It's Tokisaki Kurumi again."
Ryota didn't expect to hear this name here again. It seemed that as long as it was related to cultists, she wouldn't be absent.
"Where are the cultists? Are they all psykers?"
"No, their powers were bestowed by an evil god through a relationship of faith. A small number of them have psionic abilities, but most of them don't have psionic talents, and they wield the power of an evil god."
Now that that has been said, the minister will not hide anything anymore.
Ryota questions, he answers all he can.
If he can't answer, he will think about it and reveal some. After all, someone like Ryota who had made rapid progress could no longer be described as a genius.
In an increasingly dangerous spiritual environment, humans urgently need a strong fighting force.
Ryota has this qualification, let him treat it with care.
The calls continued half an hour later.
After Ryota hung up, he felt much heavier in his heart.
Ghost creatures alone were enough to cause a headache, he didn't expect those cultists to be so crazy.
(These people... better get out of the way!)
Thinking of the little girl, Ryota felt uneasy.
Thoughts of killing someone kept pouring out. It wasn't that he regretted killing the little girl's spirit body. In this case, there is only one choice. But disgusting thing, it's disgusting! Not justifications and reasons that can justify it, to convince yourself.
This group of people who caused this disgusting situation, if they are not completely eliminated, he is a little uncomfortable.
(I don't know how to contact Tokisaki Kurumi.)
An urge to meet the other side arose in Ryota's heart. The goal, of course, is to get more information.
Unfortunately, Tokisaki Kurumi's whereabouts were too erratic.
Right now, the only option is to wait.
...
After the conversation with the minister ended, Ryota and Hayasaka went shopping in Electric Town.
Maybe he destroyed the girl's phone, he was embarrassed.
So even though he faintly felt that Hayasaka was playing tricks on him, he didn't say anything, but cooperated with the other party's actions.
He didn't return home until 10 p.m.
After talking to the Shirogane brothers and sisters about the fact that he dropped out of school, Ryota returns to his bedroom.
Then call up the system light screen and enter the forum.
Hayasaka sent a new message.
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "Honey, are you home yet?"
Shiro: "Honey?"
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "Yes. Do not forget that you agree with my previous confession. Don't tell me you're still thinking about going back on your word and leaving me now?"
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "One who eats and wipes and leaves is poor scum."
Shiro: "Isn't that fake?"
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "What? You think it's fake?"
Shiro: "Isn't that so?"
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "I'm so pitiful, even that confession is considered fake! It was so sad that I wanted to kill myself."
Shiro: "..."
Ryota changed his way of speaking and took the initiative to attack, and entered the game in a moment.
Shiro : "Okay, you are my girlfriend now."
Shiro: "However, I don't like the slow way of building relationships gradually, but I like it more straightforward. In short, it can be summed up as follows: get on the bus first, then compensate for the fare."
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "What do you mean?"
Shiro: "You don't understand? Then let me be more direct. I only know that there are love hotels with a good reputation. Let me book a room first. Tomorrow, after school, don't come back to the mansion. We will go out together, we will go to a hotel to stay one night, and do some things that will test our physical strength."
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "…"
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "I don't know what you're talking about."
Shiro: "Oh? Hayasaka is going to play dumb here?"
Shiro: "It's fine. If you don't know, I will take the initiative tomorrow, and you just follow my rhythm. Remember not to be half an hour late tomorrow."
Smithee A. Herthaka-chan: "I have something to do, don't talk about it!"
Hayasaka immediately exited the guild forum.
Ryota could already imagine the girl's blushing expression at this moment. However, he did not continue to send emails flirting with each other.
This kind of thing should pay attention to moderation.
Otherwise, Hayasaka is willing to accept it, and will come on time tomorrow...
Then it would end badly for him.
...
The other side.
The Shinomiya family's residence.
As Ryota expected, Hayasaka hung up the phone with a blush.
She could see that Ryota was deliberately teasing her. However, in the face of this kind of thing, there is a big gap between the theoretical response and the actual response.
After all, humans are animals with shame!
If she could shake off his embarrassment, Hayasaka thought that she might be able to turn it around and get Ryota screwed up.
Of course, the possibility that Ryota will take advantage of the situation and do something to her is not excluded.
If it really developed into that situation...
(Sounds pretty exciting?)
Clapping her own cheeks, Hayasaka forced herself to calm down.
(Forget it, I'm very satisfied today, let's save other things to unlock step by step later.)
She turned off the tablet and walked towards Kaguya's room.
Naturally not doing maid work.
She had resigned for a few days.
Hayasaka looked at the XM3 headphones in her hand, with the corner of her mouth slightly upturned.
Before Ryota left, he bought it for her at Electric Street.
At that time, Ryota's eyes were quite irritable, and his whole body looked a little scary.
But he still has the patience to buy these headphones and give them as an apology.
Really care...
And the XM3 noise-canceling headphones that she wanted to receive from her boyfriend the most.
Though she doesn't know how Ryota knows what she likes, but be happy, don't think too much.
As for her goal of going to Kaguya now…
Show off!
To show off!
Hayasaka vividly remembered how many times she had been flashed by flash bombs.
Now that she finally took the chance to fight back, if she didn't retaliate fiercely, would she still be human?
"Since we are good friends, of course we have to share happiness together!"
With that kind of mentality, Hayasaka didn't even knock on the door.
Turn the door knob instantly and enter the best friend's bedroom.
"Kaguya, can you help me see how pretty this headset is?"
"What? You do not know? Then let me give you popular science, Sony WH-1000XM3..."
"It's my favorite, but I don't buy it myself, and today when I went shopping with him! He bought it as a 'gift!' for me."
"Oh, I don't know why he understands my preferences. It was probably because he was secretly 'observing!' and 'inquire carefully!' Ah, what should I give him. How about a present? Do I want to 'kiss!'?"
"Hah? Tell me to get out? No, no, no, let's talk a minute, I haven't said anything yet... Wait! let go! Let go!"
"What are you trying to do to my headphones!? Stop it...!!!"
