Comprehensive comic: Building a group of gods from scratch

5-chome 39, Yoneka-cho, Mori Detective Agency, 1st floor.

Mao Lilan, who had spiky hair and wore a white mask on her face, coughed a few times, then thanked the girl with dark blue hair and a covered hairstyle who was holding a lunch box in front of her:

"Ahem~ Thank you very much, Dong Xiang. If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid today’s lunch would really be unavailable."

"It doesn’t matter, for me it’s just a matter of cooking more for lunch. Kirishima

Touka explained to Mao Lilan in a calm tone, and then changed the subject:

"On the other hand, Lan, if you have a bad cold, you should take a good rest at home. Mr. Mori will not starve to death even if he doesn't eat for a day. Kirishima

Touka said as she handed the lunch box to Maori Ran.

"Even so...."Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly, turned around and thanked her again:"Anyway, Dong Xiang, thank you for making me lunch.""

"I will also prepare dinner. Well, just give me a little money for the materials."

Kirishima Touka tried her best to provide help in a way that Maorilan could accept.

"this..."

Mao Lilan wanted to say something to politely refuse, but Kirishima Touka waved her hand and said:

"There are still things to do in the store, so I'll leave first. Remember to wash the lunch box after you finish eating. I'll pick it up in an hour."

"OK"

Mao Lilan responded quickly, and then watched Kirishima Touka enter the coffee shop on the first floor. After coughing a few times, she carried her lunch box and went upstairs from the side stairs.

Kirishima Touka entered the store and glanced around The customers who were still dining in the store looked at each other for a moment, then quickly came to the bar and sat at the bar opposite the store manager Fangcun Gongshan who was wiping glasses.

"Did you give the lunch box to Miss Mori?"

The manager of the antique coffee shop, Fangcun Gongshan, is a thin, white-haired old man wearing a butler's uniform with a kind face.

From the first glance, no one would have thought that he would be an SSS-level ghoul in another world, codenamed Xiao. Of course

, this identity is no secret to Kirishima Touka, who is also a ghoul and has level S. Kirishima Touka, who was sitting in front of the bar, picked up the coffee that had been prepared and took a sip. Wei looked at Fangcun Gongshan in surprise:

"I didn’t expect you, the store manager, to be able to cook human food."

Obviously, the lunch box that Mao Lilan had before was not made by Kirishima Touka, but by Yoshimura Kozen in front of him.

"As you live for a long time, you will naturally learn some small skills."

Fangcun Gongshan explained with a smile, and then asked:

"Speaking of which, Touka, Miss Mori is on leave today because of a cold. Then where is her father, Mr. Kogoro Mori?"

"I went to the hospital to buy cold medicine. He is obviously a guy who loves horse racing and often plays Pat Ching Ge. I thought he would leave his daughter alone, but he actually ran to the drugstore immediately...."

Thinking of the rash detective who hurriedly took a taxi to leave, Kirishima Touka suddenly showed an unexpected expression.

On the contrary, Fangcun Gongshan understood this very well and even smiled:

"After all, he is his own child~"

He shook his head and laughed, then his face became more serious and he asked Kirishima Touka:

"Have you gotten any information from Miss Mori?"

"After listening to her complain for a while, I got some idea."

Kirishima Touka's face became slightly serious:

"It seems that because of the activeness of the famous detective Kudo Shinichi, Uncle Mouri Kogoro has not received a job for two months. The savings he saved in the past seem to have been consumed a lot. In addition, he also likes to gamble on horse racing and play Pat Ching Ge. , so the economic situation of the Maori family is already very tight."

"According to what I heard from Mao Lilan, her family’s living expenses seem to have dropped below 100,000 yen."

"If there are no accidents, if this situation continues, it will only last for half a month at most."

Hearing Kirishima Touka say this, Yoshimura Kozen wiped the glass on his hand, squinted his eyes and said:

"In this case, the Maori family's economy should be almost unsustainable."

"The property held by the Maori family, which is the three-story building where our coffee shop is located, is an old house built more than 30 years ago and is the ancestral property of the Maori family."

"Given Mr. Kogoro Mori's gambling personality, he may have the idea of ​​selling the property after he can no longer hold on....At that time, we can consider pooling everyone's money together to buy this building."

Hearing this, Kirishima Touka said somewhat puzzledly:

"But, store manager, why do we have to buy the Maori family’s house? Aren’t dilapidated houses where homicides have occurred cheaper? And there are a lot of houses like this in Miwa Town."

"It’s just because there are so many that I can’t buy them."

Fangcun Gongshan said calmly:

"On the one hand, as ghouls, we cannot blatantly appear in places related to corpses. On the other hand, accidents often happen in residences. There are very few stores like Maori's. There are basically no"

"And most of those shops are in busy areas, which are not suitable for us to hide."

"Therefore, like the Mori family, the economy is about to be strained, and there are too few people with properties that are suitable for us. It can be said that this is the only choice we can make in Yoneka Town."

"Touka, you also know the reason why I chose to open the antique coffee shop in Mihua Town. Kirishima

Touka heard this and said with a somewhat subtle expression:

"Because the frequency of murders in Yoneka Town is very high, as long as we are a little more careful, with the sensitivity of ghouls to corpses, we can easily find the newly deceased corpses. In addition, the forest area beyond Yoneka Town is in Tokyo. They are all areas with very high suicide rates."

In Miwa Town, where murders occur frequently, it is very convenient for ghouls to use their physical advantages to steal corpses and store them as food.

And if no corpse is found, even if someone reports the crime, the police will only include them as missing. The scope of the case further increased the concealment.

Coupled with the frequent suicide cases in the suburban forest, it further refuted their search for things.

It was precisely because of these multiple conveniences that Fangcun Gongshan opened the antique coffee shop after inspection. Mihua Town. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"After half a month, I will test Mr. Maoli. If he is willing to sell the house, everything will be easy."

Yoshimura Kozen put the inserted glass aside.

At this time, Kirishima Touka, who was holding her chin with one hand, said a little unhappy:

"If you give the money from selling the house to that gambler, he will definitely spend it arbitrarily, and Mao Lilan will be in dire straits."

Yoshimura Kozen saw this, and although he understood Kirishima Touka's concerns, he still said:

"There is no solution for this kind of thing. After the matter is successful, I will find an opportunity to suggest that Mr. Mao Li hand over the house payment to Miss Lan for safekeeping. This should be safer."

"It can only be the."Kirishima Touka sighed and put down the coffee.

At this moment, the store door was pushed open with the sound of tinkling wind chimes, and a woman with long black hair walked into the store and met Yoshimura Kozen in sight. He glanced at it and nodded tacitly.

Kirishima Touka, who turned around, saw this and raised his hand to say hello:

"Miss Xuan, you came so early today."

The person who came here is Irina Xuan, the only three clerks in the antique coffee shop. She is also a ghoul.

"Because the morning work was finished early."

Iri Jianxuan, who has long straight black hair and looks like an ordinary urban woman, walked in and entered the changing room. Soon she put on work clothes, walked out of the store, stood by the bar, and lowered her voice. :

"Store manager, Sifang has already investigated the results."

"Yesterday, the Mihua Town Crematorium was indeed attacked, but it seemed that they had been well prepared. Many of the attacking ghouls were killed on the spot, and it was said that there were still a few left alive."

Hearing this, Fangcun Gongshan's squinted eyes suddenly opened a little, revealing the scarlet color underneath.

He sighed faintly:

"Sure enough, you still can’t hide it?..."

Irimixuan and Kirishima Touka didn't say anything, with complicated expressions on their faces.

Kirishima Touka, the youngest among the three, was even more angry:

"We finally came to a strange world. If those guys were more honest, the ghoul's situation would not be the same...."

"Dong Xiang. Yoshimura Kozen shook his head towards Kirishima Touka:"There is no way to escape this level. After all, the vast majority of ghouls will not follow our example and feed on suicides and accidental deaths.""

"The only thing we can control is ourselves."

Kirishima Touka understood what Yoshimura Kozen said, but she was still somewhat dissatisfied.

A month ago, the ghouls in their antique coffee shop collectively came to this world that was different but similar to the past. They thought they could live in this world without anyone. He knew the world of ghouls and lived in anonymity.

As a result, it was not only them who traveled through time, but also all the ghouls in Tokyo.

In this case, it is obviously a luxury to survive without being discovered.

Kirishima Dong Xiang knew this very well, but she had always hoped that the day of exposure would come later.

Iru Jianxuan, who came back from exploring the news, asked solemnly:

"Store manager, what should we do next?"

"Because of those ghouls who attacked the crematorium, our existence must have been exposed. Next, the official investigation is destined. Once it develops to the extent of the original world..."

Speaking of this, Ijianxuan's expression became quite complicated.

In the original world, the CCG Investigation Bureau established by humans specifically hunted ghouls in order to curb the cannibalism of ghouls. Humans and ghouls have also become absolute enemies, and they are constantly fighting in the darkness of Tokyo. kill.

Or should I say, the ghouls were hunted and arrested by the larger number of humans like wild dogs in sewers.

That kind of environment was a bit unacceptable to Ru Jianxuan, who had been at peace for nearly a month.

Being in that kind of environment before was fine and tolerable, but now that I have enjoyed a peaceful environment where I don't have to be hunted down, I naturally don't want to continue living that bad life.

This also made Naomi Xuan feel abnormal after discovering that the ghoul's situation had taken a turn for the worse.

Behind the bar, facing Irimixuan's inquiry, Fangcun Gongshan, who wanted to try to live in peace with humans, could only sigh:

"I will try my best to contact various ghoul organizations, find ways to delay time, and try to prevent ghouls from evolving into a state of hostility to humans."

"Of course, this is just a stop-gap measure, the real ending. I'm sorry, I didn't think of it either."

Fangcun Gongshan said this with a very conflicted tone.

Ghouls can only eat humans, but humans refuse to be eaten. This difference in stance is something that even Fangcun Gongshan, an SSS-level ghoul and one of the strongest ghoul existences, would not have imagined. What solution?

At this moment, Kirishima Touka, who didn’t want to see the store manager in trouble, stood up and said:

"Store manager, let’s not talk about this for now. There are many customers today. It’s time for us to work."

As if to cooperate with Kirishima Touka's words.

As she finished speaking, the sound of guests pushing in came from the wind chimes hanging at the door.

Kirishima Touka turned her head and immediately saw a man with handsome features. The teenager, listening to the large white metal box, led a cute pink-haired girl into the antique coffee shop.

And this handsome man carrying the white metal box was none other than Luo Shuyi!.
