The night is getting darker, and the gloomy air permeates the earth.
The cold and silent construction site has no light, and the gray-white exterior wall of the building gives people a cold feeling like a tomb.
Looking at the disturbing track of the shadowy energy between the building and the building, Takumi Ito had an indifferent expression and sneered disdainfully.
Just a wraith.
How difficult can it be to deal with?
If I hadn't had the money to buy the talisman, I would have saved it long ago. Wouldn't it be that guy from Asakusa's turn to intervene? This is what Ito Takumi scolded the Suzuki Police Department a few hours ago.
But the Suzuki Police Department laughed.
Not only did they give him a lot of free talismans, but they also promised that as long as he helped that guy from Asakusa track down the man behind the incident, he could apply for a 1 million yen "enthusiastic citizen" reward.
1 million yen?
For Takumi Ito, is this money?
No.
This is fate.
Two years ago, he was not short of this little money.
After all, at that time he was out to remove spirits, and the lowest E-level commission was not worth seven figures. He didn't even bother to take a look at it. The reason for the high price was not because of his high magic power or attentive service, it was just the standard fee in the past.
Take the Tokyo Ghost Exorcist World two years ago as an example.
That was 2019, an infinitely beautiful year, but it was coming to an end.
That year, a total of 306 ghost removal commissions were issued in the Tokyo metropolitan area throughout the year, with an average commission price of 2 million yen.
On the Onnyangliao APP, the number of clergy registered in Tokyo has just reached 100. These 100 people all follow the routine and have a tacit understanding with each other.
No one is fighting for it. If you do three or four jobs every year comfortably, you can earn more than 5 million yen a year. You can be as comfortable as you want.
But in 2020, everything has changed, like a building collapsing, catching all practitioners off guard.
This year, a total of 350 ghost removal commissions were issued throughout the year, with an average commission price of 500,000 yen!
The general environment has not changed much, but the prices have plummeted. There is only one reason: there is a little priest who came to the countryside in the world of exorcism in Tokyo.
That bastard reopened Asakusa Shrine and monopolized nearly one-third of the entire Tokyo's commissions by one person, forcing other clergy to put aside their reserve and start a price war for orders.
Ever since...the average price has plummeted from 2 million yen to 500,000 yen.
He single-handedly led to the involution of the entire industry; his colleagues complained, and Fujiwara Izaya was guilty of heinous crimes!
Compared with his counterparts in other regions, Ito Takumi was even more dissatisfied with Fujiwara Izaya.
You must know that in addition to private commissions, the most important income for clergy comes from commissions from the Nine Lessons.
The Yoshiwara area and the Asakusa area both belong to Taito Ward, Tokyo. Last year, all nine commissions for the entire year were taken over by Asakusa Shrine, but Yoshiwara Shrine didn't get any of them!!!
Sensoji Temple was also not caught.
But the Sensoji Temple has a great cause, and the number of tourists visiting it every year is enough to make them rich and wealthy.
And Yoshihara Shrine...
He was so poor that he almost went to the red light district to hold up billboards and various custom shops to compete for customers.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get!
The angrier you get, the more you want it!
Ito Takumi settled an account.
Counting from the day Fujiwara Izaya appeared, to today, he has made tens of millions less yen.
Not to mention the sporadic commissions, take the ghost at the construction site in front of you as an example. The ghost inside is a ghost with low-level strength, which is nothing compared to his own strength and can be killed with a slap.
Who knows...
Something went wrong.
The ghost was not killed, but Takumi Ito's money was gone.
Because of the huge internal disruption in the industry led by Fujiwara Izaya, the remuneration he received from the commissions he received last year was not enough to consume the talismans.
If you take one order, you will lose one order.
Not only did I not make any money, I also emptied all my previous savings.
Now he has no money to buy the talisman.
So angry!
Fujiwara Izaya's crimes are heinous!
Because he had no money, when Kitahara Takaki came to visit, Ito Takumi directly asked for a reward of 10 million yen.
As a real estate developer, the time limit for restoring the construction site is more important than anything else, and Kitahara Takaki agreed without hesitation.
Ito Takumi calculated carefully and found that this commission could net him at least 9.98 million yen, which was enough for him to live comfortably for more than half a year.
He never thought that the ghost in the construction site would be so difficult to deal with. Every talisman he played out was like massaging it, making it scream with pleasure, as if "people want more".
I bought 100 talismans for 2 million yen and squandered them all on the first night.
On the second night, he bought 3 million yen magic charms, but it was like having a nightmare. When he woke up, the corners of his eyes were still slightly moist.
On the third night, he went all out and spent the remaining 5 million yen to buy magic talismans, intending to build up his momentum in one go.
Then……
Not only did the whipped ghost not die, but it turned into a wraith.
God Amaterasu -
Please help me!
Without the magic talisman, Ito Takumi didn't have the courage to confront the resentful spirit, so he had to shamelessly ask Kitahara Takaki to increase the money.
Kitahara Takaki told him to get lost.
So he left.
Although abandoning the task halfway would damage the reputation of the Yoshihara Shrine, Ito Takumi didn't care about it. After all... he couldn't beat him, and he didn't have the magic talisman, so he just stayed there and gave it away.
Life is the most important!
So, when the Suzuki Police Department came to visit today, Ito Takumi refused.
But after hearing the police officer say that he was offering free charms and remuneration, he was a little moved. If he didn't have money, he said that it was more important to restore his reputation when his life was not in danger.
As long as there are enough spiritual talismans, you can kill the resentful spirit. After destroying the resentful spirit, you can turn around and extort Kitahara Takaki's large sum of incense money. Thinking about it, you feel happy.
The Suzuki Police Department also said that Master Fujiwara of Asakusa Shrine would also help.
At this time, Ito Takumi was not only excited, but also very excited.
According to his understanding, although Fujiwara Izaya is very handsome and no one in Tokyo can compare with him, in terms of strength, he is just a waste who cannot pass the test of a lower priest.
Those commissions might just be a way to hire people to help complete the tasks and increase their professional titles by earning points.
How else to explain that a priest who could not pass the test of a lower ranking priest could complete so many D-level commissions?
Ito Takumi has seen many people like this.
Just like rich kids spending money to go to prestigious universities to get gold, it looks bluffing, but in fact it has no real material at all.
snort!
I don’t know what it means!
You don’t get ahead in the spirit world just by relying on your reputation!
In this field, strength must speak for itself. People without strength will not gain the heartfelt respect of their peers no matter how famous they are.
snort!
tonight!
Let me, Takumi Ito, teach you Izaya Fujiwara what it means to remove spirits!
※※※※※
"Master Ito?"
"Are you listening to me?"
"Hello, Master Ito?" Police Suzuki raised his hand and waved a few times.
Only then did Ito Takumi come back from his thoughts, put his hands behind his back, and maintained a stern posture: "What do you want me to do?"
"It's about tonight, are you sure about it, Master?" Police Suzuki showed his usual flattering smile.
For any clergy who can bring merit, he will praise them with all his strength. As long as they are comfortable with being licked, he will naturally be promoted and make a fortune, and he will make a steady profit from the business.
"No problem at all!" Ito Takumi nodded proudly.
"I'm relieved now," the Suzuki Police Department came closer and smiled cheesily: "According to me, I shouldn't ask this question! Who in the entire Taito District doesn't know that Master Ito is
He is a leader of the younger generation. He was promoted to the middle rank at the age of twenty. Looking at the whole of Tokyo, he is a genius in the first level. Of course, he is a mere wraith."
"This is natural." Takumi Ito raised his neck proudly.
Although he wanted to maintain the reserve of a clergyman, the corners of his mouth could not help but start to rise.
Seeing that the licking was effective, the Suzuki Police Department became more enthusiastic and began to praise it even harder.
"In the Gonji trial at Yoshiwara Shrine next month, Master Ito will definitely win. There are only a handful of people in Tokyo who can compare with Master Ito, let alone Yoshihara Shrine. Master, how many of your competitors are there?
It's too bad, I'm destined to be just a companion..."
Takumi Ito couldn't stand it any longer.
He liked this kind of compliment very much.
What is Quansi?
This is the greatest honor for the younger generation of priests.
Becoming a genji means becoming an agent of the shrine. You can do things outside in the name of the shrine, you can go to the Onnyangliao Conference, sit on an equal footing with countless geniuses, and enjoy the admiration and envy of your peers of the younger generation.
Gonji of Tokyo Daijingu Shrine and Gonji of Kamakura Hachimangu Shrine, both are talented and beautiful girls who meet once in a thousand years. Takumi Ito met them once, and he has never forgotten them in his heart.
As long as you can become the director of Yoshiwara Shrine, and your status is equal, won't there be more opportunities to meet!
That feeling...
It feels wonderful just thinking about it——
Takumi Ito, who was immersed in fantasy, suddenly saw a Honda Wolf slowly driving over from the corner of his eye.
