Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 71

Dou Tang responded wearily, but his words carried his usual meticulous style: "Just don't sleep with me. There are still bedding in the closet. I'll take this set to wash when I wake up..."

"If we want to hold hands... um."

He stretched his hand out from under the covers to let Huaiyin hold it while she slept, then turned his head to find a comfortable position.

I was so sleepy

However, he was still getting hung up on such small details, which made Huaiyin burst out laughing.

She stopped worrying, took out a new set of bedding, laid it out, lay down beside him, held Dou Tang's hand tightly, and slowly closed her eyes.

………………

A giant red wall.

A tall, scarlet wall, smooth as a jewel, stretches across the sky and earth.

The tall wall was divided into many parts, each covered with black, blood-like structures, like a tree crown missing all its leaves sealed in red wax.

At the center of these "tree canopies" are human figures.

Each section of the giant red wall is at least twenty meters in diameter. These humanoid beings have countless black blood vessels extending from their bodies, which intertwine to form unique bricks and stones, constructing this terrifying and awe-inspiring existence.

Behind this semi-transparent giant wall, there seems to be a distant hellish scene, with a turbid river and a dilapidated wooden bridge, and even eerie flowers swaying on the bank.

On the other side of the giant wall was a desert made up of candy cane powder. Yusuke Uchiyama and the ghost mountain stood in front of the candy train, looking at everything in horror.

At the same time, they discovered that the giant wall in front of them was not stationary, but was slowly inching forward, advancing unstoppably.

The places that were swallowed up became a decaying landscape resembling another world, with bluish-gray land and brownish-yellow river water... reminiscent of the real underworld.

Both of them had a premonition that the giant wall in front of them was probably the truth about the Fall Guys world.

But isn't this truth just too... terrifying?

A terrifying wall slowly devouring this sweet world—what is this? What happened to the Fall Guys world being synonymous with simplicity and cuteness? What happened to letting go of resentment and worldly concerns to fully enjoy happiness?

Just as the two were in shock, the giant wall in front of them suddenly made a loud noise, and the humanoid figure in the middle of the nearest block in front of them moved.

It was a strange fellow who looked like a primitive man, with unkempt hair and dirty face, dressed in ancient and simple clothes, with a long whip and a bronze-colored longsword hanging at his waist.

The humanoid figure surged backward from the giant wall, black threads gradually converging into its body. Only then did the two people at the foot of the Wraith Mountain realize that those black threads were actually... human blood vessels.

Blood vessels pierce the flesh, extending for more than ten meters, forming the framework of the block.

The humanoid figure slowly landed, its black blood vessels receding into its body, followed by red crystals.

That's blood.

The solid red crystal turned into a flowing liquid, gradually compressing into viscous blood, which was then absorbed into the humanoid body.

As this block dissipated, the world behind the red wall finally connected with the Fall Guys world.

A howling, foul-smelling wind blew by, and a disheveled human figure stood in the wind, his back to the two people at the foot of the Vengeful Spirit Mountain.

While the two were still in shock, the disheveled humanoid figure had already drawn a long sword and a whip, and strode towards the dark, decaying world.

He stepped onto the gray-blue earth, walked towards the brownish-yellow river, and headed towards the dilapidated wooden bridges.

He stood there for a long time at the foot of the mountain of resentment, then exchanged a glance with Yusuke Uchiyama.

Yusuke Uchiyama blinked, his voice trembling: "Yamashita-kun... over there, what exactly is that place over there?"

The man at the foot of the mountain continued to gaze at that space, his face, hidden beneath bandages, contorted with fear.

"No, I don't know... Perhaps, that is the real hell? I can't find any other word to describe it except hell... Ren Jun, Ren Jun may really be... a person from hell."

He suddenly realized that he shouldn't criticize the person he admired like that, so he quickly shut his mouth, but the thought was completely ingrained in his mind.

As for that ancient humanoid being, it had completely entered that space and disappeared into the hazy mist.

Chapter 1 A Wicked Woman!

Dou Tang was unaware of what was happening at the farthest reaches of his own body. At this moment, he was still fast asleep, and was having a sweet dream, something he hadn't experienced in a long time.

In the dream, I was holding Huaiyin's hand, and we lived together for a very long time. Lu Zizhen would come to visit from time to time, and the three of us still got along very well.

The Crown game ended in his victory, and Huaiyin did not lose her life. The two continued to support each other. Doutang was admitted to Dongda University, and life gradually moved towards perfection. Huaiyin also stepped out of the house and began to come into contact with school and society, gradually learning how to get along with people.

Everything in the dream made Dou Tang feel unusually happy, relaxed and joyful, as if a heavy burden had been lifted. He could freely express his emotions, say whatever he wanted, no longer hide anything, no longer be cautious in his words and actions, no longer suppress his feelings, and could love or hate as he pleased.

He also dreamed that he and Huaiyin moved to a small town. The town seemed to still be living in the same place as ten years ago, with a simple and peaceful life. The quiet rural town was filled with all his intimate memories.

But in the end, he found that in the dream he was pulling Huaiyin forward, while his own perspective was left in place.

The peaceful town before her eyes gradually collapsed, turning into a dark void. The smiling Huaiyin disintegrated into pieces of mottled light and shadow, becoming unlike herself, but rather like a combination of herself and another girl.

Finally, Dou Tang released his sister from his grasp, and the girl scattered into glowing mirror shards, which then melted away like ice.

The other Dou Tang turned around, looking at Dou Tang with indifferent eyes.

“We need to make some changes,” he said.

Dou Tang suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and felt extremely annoyed.

But before he could even utter the words he wanted to say, he suddenly felt a blur before his eyes and instantly woke up.

I opened my eyes and instantly felt a sweet and alluring breath on my face.

"Hey, lazybones, wake up! Your sis is taking you to a fancy hotel."

Lu Zizhen squatted in front of him, a smug smile on her face, and had also changed her clothes.

Dou Tang blinked, still feeling exhausted, indicating that he hadn't slept for long.

"What do you mean?"

Lu Zizhen grinned and said, "Your room is in such a state, why are you still staying here? Come with me to a hotel, I'll treat everyone in your class! The car is already downstairs!"

Dou Tang was initially confused, then felt a warmth in his heart: "You...you were just doing this?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Because of one person, she treated the entire class to a hotel stay? Should we say this woman is incredibly wealthy or what...?

"You didn't have to go this far, did you?" Dou Tang said, somewhat incredulously.

"I think it's necessary, and besides, you're rich, and you earned that money through your hard work. There's nothing wrong with me spending it on you, is there?"

Dou Tang heard the sound of the bus engine downstairs and the voices of his classmates, and sighed helplessly.

Huaiyin, who was beside her, also woke up and rubbed her eyes.

"Alright, rich woman...do whatever you want with her."

With her deep pockets, Lu Zizhen truly deserves the title of being incredibly wealthy. The incident involving Ito and Siren Head has made her able to roam freely in Kamogawa City without any problems. All the exorcists gathered in Kamogawa City are surviving only because of her and Dou Tang. Therefore, when she proposed to arrange for a group of ordinary students to stay in the best hotel in the city, no one dared to say a word against it.

In particular, the bald monk, Aida Gaku, personally rented a car to pick up the students.

Dou Tang and Huai Yin packed their luggage. The two siblings would ride in Lu Zizhen's car later, instead of taking the bus.

But this incident also made the students look at Dou Tang more and more strangely, after all, no one could forget the arrogant look on the face of that big sister wearing sunglasses when she flung open the door.

She laughed wildly, pounded on the door frame, and shouted, "Alright! Poor students! You've all benefited from Kiryu Toudou's kindness! You can leave this godforsaken place without even glass and stay in a proper hotel!"

He had the air of a nouveau riche, but that was more than enough to keep these students, who had never seen the world, in check.

The bus left first, and Dou Tang and Huai Yin walked out of the house, watching the bus drive away, their feelings complicated.

Dou Tang shook his head and said, "What kind of school trip is this? My classmates will probably think I have a complicated background and a very strange... nouveau riche cool sister friend."

Lu Zizhen disagreed: "We're not the same kind of people to begin with, why bother socializing with them? Have some self-awareness, will you?"

Dou Tang turned his gaze to Huai Yin beside him, indicating that his own social skills were irrelevant; the main concern was Huai Yin—she had too few friends.

Lu Zizhen stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Aida Yue, who was standing nearby, also drove up. After seeing Dou Tang, he hesitated for a moment before coming up to greet him, saying, "Mr. Ren, we meet again... I didn't expect you to be Miss Lu's friend."

Lu Zizhen introduced, "Aida Yue, the bald guy who had a conflict with you before, he's actually a... monk, an exorcist, you know?"

Dou Tang nodded slightly: "Mr. Aida... there were many misunderstandings before."

Aida Yue felt somewhat ashamed, after all, he had gotten drunk and caused trouble before. Although he thought about it afterwards and realized that his state that day was strange, he had made a mistake.

However, Dou Tang didn't pay much attention to it. After getting into Lu Zizhen's car, they soon arrived at the hotel where Lu Zizhen had stayed before.

The hotel was now busier, partly due to the arrival of students and partly because the Siren Head incident had come to an end.

The Siren Head incident revealed a lot of information. The arrival of the great god Ito and the appearance of Fall Guys were both unexpected. In fact, in the face of these two pieces of news, the betrayal of Priest Ito was not so obvious.

By this time, many exorcists had already set off to return to their respective places, eager to discuss the events that had occurred in Kamogawa City with their friends or families.

Lu Zizhen got out of the car, followed by Dou Tang and Huaiyin. The exorcists who were in a hurry to leave all avoided her.

This scene was witnessed by the students who were arranging rooms in the hall, which fueled their speculations about Lu Zizhen and Dou Tang.

"Hey, do you think Kiryu-kun could really be a yakuza?... He's starting to look more and more like it!"

"Shh, stop talking, they're coming in... That girl named Lu Zizhen must be some kind of yakuza heiress, did you see how those people treated her?"

Dou Tang was wailing in his heart.

He entered the hall and looked at his classmates, where he found Chinatsu Kume and others. Chinatsu Kume seemed to want to come up and talk to him, but she was being pulled by her classmates to arrange her room, so she could only give them an apologetic look.

Lu Zizhen seemed quite satisfied with this, smiling as she stared at the students of Class 2-B like a threatening tiger.

At that moment, Dou Tang suddenly became certain that Lu Zizhen's actions were intentional—deliberately trying to get him and his classmates...

Social interaction has become extremely difficult.

How could such a good person be so malicious!

Chapter 2: Siren Head Plans to Challenge Gatekeeper Fall Guy!

The evil spirit incidents in Kamogawa City have come to a complete end.

The priest Ito's real name is Ito Raimoto, and this has already spread among exorcists, leading to a manhunt for him.

The tragedy on the mountain was taken over by local exorcists. The remains of the Ito shrine deep in the mountains were to be repaired through crowdfunding and then handed over to the shrine for worship. After all, this was a rare treasure for the local exorcists of Kamogawa City... The flag proved that a powerful evil spirit once appeared in Kamogawa City.

As for Siren Head, the few remaining specks of dust were collected by the exorcists, who intended to explore the secrets of this urban legend-like evil spirit.

113 candies were neatly placed in a box on the table after Dou Tang woke up. Lu Zizhen paid a heavy price to get these candies back—for example, by reducing the original reward.

This was also a form of silencing, making all exorcists who knew of the existence of the Fall Guys cautious in their words and actions, while also cutting off any possibility of them associating Dou Tang with the Fall Guys. Through this action, Lu Zizhen packaged herself as someone who was highly curious about the Fall Guys. In any case, given her strange and unpredictable personality, no one present would suspect anything.

As for Kiryu Todo?

Apart from Aida Gaku and the people who had seen him at the restaurant, everyone else assumed that he was... Ji Zizhen's lover.

After a long sleep at the hotel, Dou Tang woke up, picked up the box on the table, and put it away. Only then did he realize that it was already dark outside. He had slept straight into the night, which gave him a dazed feeling, as if everything yesterday was a dream.

He hadn't felt this way in a long time. Looking at the brightly lit small city outside the window, he even had a strange feeling of being abandoned by the whole world. The bustling traffic and the noise of life outside the window had nothing to do with him.

He was isolated from this world, out of place in this space and time, just as he had thought about countless times over the past year.

But just then, a sound came from the bed behind him, shattering his somewhat pessimistic mood and telling him that he still had ties to this world.

"……elder brother?"

"Phew..." Dou Tang let out a long breath and turned around.

"Well, what happened?"

"It's okay... I slept very comfortably, the bed was soft." Huaiyin's eyes were half-open, still a little drowsy, her hair was a bit messy, and she was hugging a pillow and giggling foolishly.

Dou Tang nodded, then sat back on the bed, ruffled Huaiyin's hair, and said, "I need to... take a nap now. Lu Zizhen's room should be next door. Call her if you need anything, okay?"

Huaiyin obediently accepted his caresses and asked, "Is this what you got last night? Are you going to purify the souls of those evil spirits?"

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Huaiyin nodded, and Doutang immediately sat down on the bed to meditate. Although there were no requirements for the posture, he felt that this was more... formal. Just like when he called out his name in a fight or said some ambiguous words, he actually valued the sense of ritual very much.

As his consciousness slowly sank, unlike in a dream or illusion, Dou Tang could clearly perceive that his consciousness was falling into a certain space.

Under a clear blue sky, amidst a sweet aroma and a racetrack made of dreamlike materials like candy and cookies, he once again transformed into a giant jelly bean and stood at the starting point of the track.

And beside him were... five tall siren heads lying on the ground.

Dou Tang couldn't stop drooling when he saw this group of police sirens.

Damn it, these are five real evil spirits, five of them!
