Chapter 281 The Ninth
The temperature in Tokyo in winter is not very low, mostly hovering above zero, but the cold and humid climate can still make people feel very uncomfortable, a bit similar to the south.
Tokyo is filled with colorful lights at night, and many neon people are just entering their leisure time after get off work. Izakaya, pachinko, and even strange custom shops are all busy with business.
It was in such a wet and cold wind that a figure kept jumping quickly between the tall buildings.
"Tokyo is so big."
Feeling the cold wind blowing by his temples, Wang Yi couldn't help but feel a little emotional while looking down at the bustling streets.
This girl Gu Qianqian is also really good at running. It feels like she is constantly chasing various urban legends to locations all over Tokyo.
Hospitals, abandoned houses, schools, artificial lakes, parks, toilets, and most of the things that Gu Qianqian can feel are indeed wraiths.
So far, twelve locations have been solved, of which only four were useless idiots and eight were effective employees!
It can definitely be considered a bumper harvest.
Moreover, Wang Yi will also go to shrines he has not been to last time. If there is a Sotou God, he will also kidnap the Sotou God. This efficiency is much faster than the last time someone drove with him.
"Now there are only the last three places, give me a surprise."
With one foot on the eaves, Wang Yi jumped directly towards the lower building at least a hundred meters away in front.
The lightness and smoothness blessed by him, coupled with his strong physique, allowed him to land easily.
Standing on the roof guardrail, looking down at the bustling world of lights and feasting below, Wang Yi also felt a slight sense of isolation.
Although it has been so long since I returned to the present world, I still feel a little unable to integrate into it.
After all, the other world is accompanied by the undead most of the time.
Then Wang Yi looked at a pachinko shop on the street. Sure enough, compared to other similar shops that were overcrowded, the business of this shop was sparse. There must be something wrong.
"Spiritual Vision"
Wang Yi murmured softly, the blue light in his eyes flickered, and he could see the gloomy atmosphere in the Pachinko shop under the night, which was gradually getting thicker.
This kind of smell will most likely dissipate during the day, but now it is starting to become thicker just after nightfall, which means that the thing is nearby.
"It's not bad, the trip was not in vain."
Wang Yi glanced at the alley next to him, then jumped down, untied the twisted cover after landing, started to walk out of the alley and merged with the crowd, and walked towards the Pachinko shop in front.
Pachinko is a specialty store in Neon, that is, a pachinko parlor. Before Neon DB was legalized a few years later, pachinko served as the core of this marginal business.
Neon now legally does not allow DB, nor does it allow such machines.
But these shop owners themselves are trying their best to avoid it.
The metal marbles are considered a kind of precious metal, and the rewards are only marbles but not any money. However, there are two other stores next to the store. One can exchange these marbles for various gifts, and the other one will recycle these marbles. The gifts are exchanged for money, and eventually the pinball parlor recycles the marbles, completing the cycle.
The registered companies behind these three stores are all different, thus circumventing relevant regulations.
Almost every pachinko shop is overcrowded, and nearly 10% of people in Neon visit it once a day!
Maybe it won’t cost much at one time, but over time it’s still a lot of money. Neon’s annual spend on pachinko is thirty times that of Las Vegas in a year, which is 10% of Neon’s car export trade. double.
It is conceivable that this proportion is huge and the profits are huge.
Many stores themselves are also affected and even controlled by Neon's violent gangs.
Wang Yi came to the door of the store. Through the transparent glass door, he could see that although there were many machines inside, there were only a few people sitting on them. There were also two young people with colorfully dyed hair standing listlessly beside them, looking a little depressed.
But after seeing Wang Yi's arrival, he took the initiative to greet him.
"The guest is so handsome, just like the idol over there at Bangzi."
"Well, I am the stick."
Wang Yi smiled casually, which made his younger brother look a little embarrassed.
"I'm here to help you solve the problem this time. You have dirty things here, right?"
This store is open 24 hours a day, so it is really convenient for Wang Yi to deal with it openly.
Anyway, the metaphysical atmosphere here in Neon is quite strong, so it’s not a big deal.
Wang Yi's words also made the two of them look stunned again. Then one of them turned back to call the boss, and the other stayed with Wang Yi
"It's strange. Will people from South Korea be arranged to remove spirits at the shrine now?"
Xiao Hongmao looked at Wang Yi and scratched his head a little weirdly.
Wang Yi could still hear Xiao Huangmao who went to call someone to say, 'Boss, the person you invited has arrived...'
Hearing this, Wang Yi naturally reacted. The boss on the relationship side has hired someone.
But yes, due to the terrain, the probability of encountering dirty things here in Neon is indeed higher than in China. Even with the occasional protection of the grass-headed god, the folk customs are still quite strong.
It can actually be seen from the number of shrines. In addition to these, there are also many evil sects, which can often be seen in film and television works.
Not long after, a man in a suit who looked a little haggard in his fifties appeared in front of Wang Yi.
It can be seen from the thick dark circles under the other party's eyes that he has not been resting well recently.
"Ah, thank you for coming, Master Onmyoji. It's a little earlier than the agreed time. I'm really sorry that I couldn't come out to greet you."
"I'm not someone you're looking for. I came here on my own after feeling the smell of this place."
Wang Yi explained something, which made the boss stunned, and then he seemed a little hesitant.
After all, he has already hired someone. If the professionals who come over there see that there are still people there, will they think they disrespect him?
I went to an old shrine. It is said that there has always been the inheritance of Onmyoji. This...
"As long as it solves the problem, right?"
Wang Yi looked at a pinball machine with the strongest necromancy and walked over and knocked
"Has anyone died in front of this machine?"
Wang Yi directly found the problem machine and was so sure that he immediately convinced his boss and hurried over to say
"Yes, yes, since then, our store has been cursed. All the machines have problems. They are completely out of line with the probabilities set by the program. There will be no problem in repairing the machines. If this continues There will be no guests coming..."
In fact, this is the situation in the store now. Except for a few of their own people, the people who are still 'playing' on the machine are people invited by the boss, but it is still of no use. The probability of this machine is too weird.
These words made Wang Yi feel a little speechless.
It seems that the boss is more worried about the lack of business in the store than dirty things.
But it seems that the ability of ordinary resentful spirits to interfere with the present world is quite limited. It would be good if the other party can continuously affect the beads. Maybe the resentment is also on the machine...

Third update~First update~
I found that many readers have misunderstandings about colds. In fact, humans have not yet conquered colds. There is no specific medicine for colds, and colds cannot be treated with drugs. They all rely on themselves to cure colds.
In addition to antiviral drugs, which have certain positive effects on viral colds, the current cold medicines are all about relieving symptoms. They are mainly divided into four categories: one is anti-allergy, the other is to relieve congestion of the nasal mucosa, the third is to relieve pain and reduce inflammation, and the fourth is to relieve congestion. Some compound cold medicines are similar to antivirals. Nowadays, some compound cold medicines are a mixture of these to achieve multi-faceted effects. They mainly rely on self-healing. Antiviral medicines only assist in inhibiting virus replication, and ultimately rely on self-immunity.
As for the effect of this drug, I wrote about the principle in Chapter 234. It uses magical 5-hydroxytryptamine for indirect regulation. The reduction of 5-hydroxytryptamine is the main reason for patients with depression, so it can cure depression. syndrome, and 5-hydroxytryptamine can indirectly affect the sleep effect. Because it is indirect, it is a 'sleep aid' rather than a 'sleep'. In other words, if you doze off and don't want to sleep, you can force yourself to wake up. It will not make you fall down like anesthesia. Down.
At the same time, the analgesic effect is based on the regulation of magic 5-hydroxytryptamine, which indirectly affects endorphins and dopamine. It is the regulation of the human body's self-analgesia, rather than external anesthesia. It makes you feel comfortable, rather than depriving you of your perception. .
