"You're not hurt, can you stand up?" Ye Zi put away the Gauss pistol and walked slowly to Yoko who was lying on the ground. With a warm smile on his face, he stretched out his right hand.

"...Hmm." Although the identity of the girl in front of her was unknown and she was carrying a gun, she still saved her life and seemed to have no ill intentions. After Yoko hesitated for a moment, she took Ye Zi's extended hand.

Feeling the bursts of warmth from the opponent's palm, Yoko's strength that had disappeared due to panic seemed to have returned. She stood up tremblingly, and asked with a tone of fear and shock: "What on earth was that... just now?"

thing?"

"Of course it's a fierce ghost." Hearing Ye Zi say that taboo word with a matter-of-fact expression, Yoko couldn't help but shudder. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she hesitated.

"It's scary, isn't it? In fact, the world we live in is far less safe than you and most people in the world think. For example, the curse calls you encountered this time, such as haunted houses, such as werewolves, zombies, and vampires, these are common

In the perception, they are just country tales and urban legends, but in reality they are nothing.

They threaten human society all the time." Ye Zi put on a serious face and "introduced" to Yoko: "And we, the Global Occult Coalition, are responsible for protecting human civilization from their hands.

Responsibilities.”

"Damn, what Zhang Wuji said is so damn right. The prettier the girl is, the better she is at lying." Zhang Jie's low voice came from the headset: "Tsk, tsk... This tone, this story, it's completely deceptive.

of."

"The evil ghost who just attacked you already has two digits of lives on his hands. The GOC Far East branch has been tracking for several months and finally locked this abnormal call by monitoring all calls. And my companions and I were ordered to carry

Members of the Far East Task Force who came to deal with the matter with evil-busting weapons." Ignoring Zhang Jie's complaints, Ye Zi continued to lie without changing his expression: "I have to say, Miss Okazaki Yoko, you are very lucky."

"Hmm, thank you so much... When I saw "that thing", I almost thought I was going to die."

Ye Zi's rhetoric seemed to be very successful. At least judging from Yoko's expression, she completely believed the story. After expressing her gratitude, she asked cautiously: "So, am I safe now? "That one just now

"Things" should have been eliminated by you, right?"

"It's a pity that even though we severely injured Li Gui, we still let him run away." Ye Zi raised his right index finger and shook it slightly: "This is one of the reasons why I tell you so much... Miss Okazaki Yoko, what's next

We need your cooperation for a while."

"Based on the ghost's action pattern, it may continue to try to attack you, or it may change its target and instead send a death notice to someone in your address book."

"In order to protect your safety, I will provide you with personal protection until the evil ghosts are completely eliminated. At the same time, in order to avoid more victims, you need to investigate the friends in your address book and ask them if they have received any information.

Weird curse call, okay?"

After getting a positive answer, Ye Zi motioned to the other party to wait for a moment, and introduced Zhang Jie to her, who arrived shortly afterwards, and the three of them returned to Yoko's residence together. Zhang Jie would spend the night on the sofa in the living room, while Ye Zi

Azusa followed Yoko into her bedroom, and before Yoko went to bed, he roughly explained to her the plans for the next few days.

First of all, when they check the contacts in the address book, they cannot simply call and ask, because in the original plot, Mimiko the Demonic Demon has the ability to hijack calls and imitate voices... In other words, God knows who is answering the phone on the other side.

It is a ghost. Only by visiting one by one and confirming it with your own eyes can you ensure that you are not deceived by the evil ghost.

Fortunately, there are not many numbers in Yoko's address book, only about twenty, and most of them are her classmates. Even if they are all checked, it will not take much time. Under Ye Zi's deliberate guidance, Hehe

Kenichi, Natsumi Konishi, and Yumi Nakamura, these three plot characters who are on the mission of the main god, have become their priority targets for investigation.

In addition, Ye Zi emphatically warned Yoko that if she found out that any of her friends had received a cursed phone call, she must not tell the other party the truth. Just pretend that she had heard some urban legends and try to explain it away. Otherwise, the other party would know the truth.

Afterwards, it is easy to act abnormally, thereby alerting the snake and arousing the alert of ghosts.

As for the safety of the other party, there is no need to worry at all. Ye and Zi will protect him in the dark just like they did when they saved Yoko previously.

Early the next morning, the three of them left the residence. They first eliminated the risk to Natsumi Konishi and Yumi Nakamura. Both of these two best friends said they did not receive any strange calls. But before Yoko could breathe a sigh of relief, her current boyfriend

However, Kenichi Kawai stated that he did receive a similar call... and the time was right after Yoko was attacked last night and was rescued by Ye Zi and the others!

"Strange call? Yes, I received it near midnight last night. First, the ringtone was changed to creepy music, and then there was an inexplicable message. It must be a prank by a friend... What's wrong, Yoko,

Why does your complexion suddenly become so bad?"

(I remember that in the original plot, the order of being attacked was the same... Yoko first, then Kenichi. I don't know if it was a coincidence or fate.)

"Then... what's the content of the message?" Yoko asked hurriedly with a pale face.

"What happened all of a sudden? Did you get any stimulation?" Kenichi seemed startled by his girlfriend's unusual reaction. After being stunned for a while, he took out his cell phone and said, "Here, listen to it yourself."

"You have a new message. The first message was at 7:06 pm on the 20th." After the dull system tone, there were several female chuckles, and after a few seconds, there was a heavy sound.

The message ended abruptly with the muffled sound of something falling to the ground.

"Look...even the time is wrong, it's obviously some new prank, right?" Although Kenichi was a little confused when he just received the call last night, he has returned to his normal state now and comforted Yoko indifferently.

.

"Ah...yeah, it must be some kind of prank. I've heard some urban legends recently, and I went to a funeral a few days ago, so I'm a little nervous, which made you laugh." After realizing her gaffe, Yoko

Thinking of Ye Zi's warning, he barely suppressed the panic in his heart, and changed the topic after a few words.

"Calm down, madam. As I said, since we have the ability to protect your safety, the safety of others is naturally also safe." After the three returned to their residence, Ye Zi first comforted the worried Yoko, and then waited.

After she adjusted her mood, she found a map, paper and pen, and began to plan her actions for tomorrow night: "7:06 pm...do you know what he usually does at this time?"

"Let me think about it... By the way, he mentioned that around 7 o'clock every night, he would go for a jog before it was completely dark." Yoko bit her thumb, thought for a while, and gave a positive answer.

.

"What's the specific route?"

"Probably from his residence..." She circled two locations on the map and connected them with round-trip arrows: "Go to a nearby park and run back and forth like this."
