After inadvertently saying "I want to be Azuma-sama's dog,"
Yotsuya Miko decided to completely let herself go.
She, who was usually quiet and obedient, now just diligently followed Yukima Azuma.
A submissive deanor, ready to obey orders.
After all, as long as she wasn't facing evil spirits...
Even if Azuma intended to put a collar around her neck, Yotsuya Miko would not resist.
Yukima Azuma reached out to gently stroke the head of the girl with amber eyes.
"In short, let's invite that teacher of yours to a quiet place for us to talk."
Upon hearing this, Yotsuya Miko nodded obediently.
But soon after, she felt a little difficulty.
Because Teacher Toono Zen usually did not communicate with anyone.
Every day, he only arrived on ti for class and left after class.
As soon as the school bell rang, he imdiately left.
Any attempt at conversation outside of studies, he completely ignored.
Yotsuya Miko could not think of a way to invite him to a quiet place.
After all, she didn't even have a way to contact Toono Zen.
Just as Yotsuya Miko was feeling confused,
She suddenly spotted a figure in the distance slowly walking out of the school grounds.
"That person! That's my temporary horoom teacher, Toono Zen!"
Yotsuya Miko pointed at that figure and said.
Yukima Azuma looked in the direction Yotsuya Miko pointed.
Due to the distance, Yukima Azuma couldn't sll anything.
"Let's follow. That teacher is surrounded by the spirits of cats."
"Recently, there have been a lot of missing cat reports in Tokyo."
Yotsuya Miko said with a worried tone.
She didn't want to see more cats hard.
Yukima Azuma nodded.
Bocchi's performance would take place in the afternoon, near sunset.
There was still enough ti now.
So, the two of them followed Toono Zen's figure.
They exited the school gate.
Toono Zen entered a nearby alley.
This action further confird the suspicion Yotsuya Miko voiced.
Because stray cats usually operate in alleys like this.
The two quietly followed Toono Zen from a distance.
Yotsuya Miko hoped to catch him in the act.
If they could gather evidence,
Maybe they could get Toono Zen arrested.
After all, many cats had gone missing, and in Japan, it was illegal to kill cats.
With that, the problem would be solved.
They passed through a few small alleys.
The three of them still did not see a single stray cat.
It seed that all the stray cats in the area had disappeared.
After wandering around,
Eventually, Toono Zen turned under an arch bridge.
From there ca the faint sound of a cat owing.
Upon hearing the sound,
Toono Zen jumped over the railing and landed on the grassy field by the embanknt.
"This is bad, we need to hurry!"
Seeing this scene, Yotsuya Miko quickly ran over.
For humans, cats were really fragile.
In just a few seconds, they could lose their lives.
At this mont, under the bridge, the painful cries of a cat echoed.
Yukima Azuma sped up, jumping over the railing and landing on the concrete ground beneath the bridge.
But he stopped in place, not continuing to act.
Yotsuya Miko hurriedly ran over.
But when she saw the scene under the bridge, everything was not as she had imagined.
Under the bridge, a three-colored stray cat huddled in a corner, letting out a frightened cry.
On the other side, Toono Zen was pinning a hoodie man to the ground.
Clearly, they had been in a brief wrestling match.
Toono Zen had the upper hand.
At this mont, Toono Zen was holding the man down, taking various items from his body and placing them on the concrete ground beside him.
Yotsuya Miko saw this and imdiately took a sharp breath.
On the ground were pliers, a large syringe, a stun gun, and other items.
Moreover, these items had dry, faded bloodstains on them.
Even the pliers had so strands of fur stuck to them.
Upon seeing this, Yotsuya Miko understood.
The culprit behind the series of missing cats in Tokyo wasn't Toono Zen, as she had thought.
It was the man in the hoodie before her.
Toono Zen had likely gone through the alley, perhaps concerned about the missing cats.
Thus, he had wandered and conducted a patrol.
Perhaps the vengeful spirits of the cats had also followed Toono Zen as he patrolled.
Once Yotsuya Miko figured this out, she felt a bit ashad.
She shouldn't have hastily judged soone as good or bad just based on what she had seen of spirits.
Hearing the noise, Toono Zen turned around and saw Yukima Azuma and Yotsuya Miko.
The strength in his hands loosened a bit.
The hooded man pinned to the ground began to breathe heavily.
Yukima Azuma looked at this scene, raising an eyebrow.
Humans always have many sides to them.
Toono Zen in front of them might not be evil.
But he certainly wasn't as good as Yotsuya Miko had believed.
If the two of them hadn't shown up here,
Toono Zen might have directly killed the hooded man.
The way he had restrained him earlier left no room for breathing.
It truly seed intended to kill.
"What's your na again? I think you're one of my students. How did you end up here?"
Toono Zen asked Yotsuya Miko.
Clearly, he wasn't very good at communication.
He couldn't even rember the nas of students in his class.
"My na is Yotsuya Miko, I... have sothing I want to say to Toono-sensei."
Yotsuya Miko wanted to explain but didn't know where to begin.
At that mont, in her line of sight, a massive humanoid spider suddenly erged from Toono Zen's body.
Its enormous claws covered Toono Zen.
The terrifying face roared toward them.
Don't look!
Yukima Azuma stepped forward, grabbed the stun gun from the cent ground, and threw it to Toono Zen.
Toono Zen understood and stood up.
As he pulled his body away from the hooded man,
He switched on the stun gun and pressed it against the back of the hooded man's neck.
Accompanied by the man's screams and the sll of burning flesh,
The hooded man instantly passed out.
After finishing everything, Toono Zen looked at Yukima Azuma with a deep gaze.
Yotsuya Miko stood frozen in place.
Toono-sensei... seed to be different from what she had thought.
"Yotsuya-san, what did you want to say to ?"
Toono Zen stood up and looked at Yotsuya Miko.
Yotsuya Miko thought for a mont.
Then, she looked at Yukima Azuma.
Yukima Azuma bluntly said, "If you have sothing to say, just say it, it's fine."
Yotsuya Miko nodded.
Then, she lifted her head.
The terrifying humanoid spider was now screeching wildly.
Yotsuya Miko understood.
The vengeful spirits of the cats were swirling around Toono Zen.
They weren't following him out of hatred.
On the contrary, they were thanking him.
That's why they surrounded Toono Zen, trying to keep him away from the massive humanoid spider.
The spider kept growling, "Don't look! Stay away from it!"
Although Yotsuya Miko didn't know exactly what was going on,
She felt that the reason Toono Zen didn't communicate with others
Might be because of the influence of this humanoid spider.
So, whether for friends or out of kindness,
"Enough, let Toono-sensei go free."
She faced the massive humanoid spider, several ters tall, and spoke these words.
The humanoid spider, which had been screaming wildly, seed to be paused at the press of a button.
Its head slowly turned, its huge, fierce eyes staring at Yotsuya Miko.
It seed to be confirming sothing.
Confirming whether Yotsuya Miko could see it.
After a mont of silence,
The gigantic creature with eight spider legs began to charge wildly on the ground, rushing toward Yotsuya Miko.
Toono Zen furrowed his brows.
He couldn't understand Yotsuya Miko's words.
But in that very mont, he felt his body beco light as a feather.
A corner of his vision seed to have sothing passing by.
Yotsuya Miko took two steps back, her legs already trembling.
Normally, she would try not to acknowledge the existence of these spirits.
But now, facing a monster that might be the most terrifying thing she had ever seen, Yotsuya Miko wanted to provoke it.
Her courage was shouting,
But her legs were truly weak.
Yukima Azuma caught a disgusting sll.
It was like the sll of rusted iron fences.
He tried activating his special vision that ca with his cooking skills.
But within that strange vision, Yukima Azuma still couldn't catch sight of any ghostly figures.
It seed that Yotsuya Miko's Yin-Yang eyes were an extrely special skill.
At this mont, the disgusting sll began to move.
Yukima Azuma raised his right index finger.
It was as though he was positioning a chess piece.
He pointed downward.
Through Yotsuya Miko's eyes, the massive humanoid spider suddenly bore an invisible pressure.
It was violently forced down to the ground.
The spider's eight legs emitted a series of screeching, unpleasant sounds.
They were bent and twisted into a heap.
The monster, once several ters tall, now...
At this mont, the humanoid spider, pressed to the ground by the invisible force, was no taller than Yotsuya Miko's calf.
Seeing this scene,
Yotsuya Miko breathed a sigh of relief.
It seed that such a terrifying evil spirit,
In Yukima-sama's hands, could be suppressed with just a flick of a finger.
However, after waiting for a while,
Yotsuya Miko noticed that the invisible pressure still couldn't destroy the humanoid spider.
Imdiately, she looked at Yukima Azuma with concern.
As a result, she saw Yukima Azuma seed to be lost in thought.
He didn't appear strained or tense at all.
On the contrary, he seed to be examining sothing.
When Yotsuya Miko was about to speak, Yukima Azuma slowly raised his hand.
He made a gesture of gripping space toward the area where the humanoid spider was.
Yotsuya Miko saw that an invisible pressure from all directions suddenly pressed in.
The humanoid spider, which had been crushed into a heap, hissed from its throat.
Its massive body continued to be compressed.
As Yukima Azuma's fingers closed,
A black-red orb fell to the grass beneath the bridge.
Yotsuya Miko blinked.
It felt like Yukima-sama was far stronger than when they were in Shimokitazawa.
"What... just happened?"
Finally, Toono Zen couldn't help but ask.
Yotsuya Miko snapped back to reality and waved her hand at Toono Zen.
"Toono-sensei, just consider what I said nonsense, but if you like cats so much, why not adopt it?"
She pointed to the three-colored cat huddling in a corner beneath the bridge.
Hearing this, Toono Zen also looked in that direction.
"I don't exactly 'like' them... I wouldn't call it liking... but... I'll give it a try."
Halfway through, Toono Zen suddenly changed his tone.
He had a feeling.
Perhaps... he could adopt a cat.
His mother had long abandoned him, and there would be no one left to harm the cats he took care of.
Toono Zen walked toward the three-colored cat and gently embraced it.
In Yotsuya Miko's vision,
The vengeful cat spirits that had surrounded Toono Zen,
Now began to dissipate.
From dark red and gloomy colors, they shifted to a golden hue like sunlight, transforming into soft points of light that gently faded away.
