“Why do I feel that you are desperate to meet with specters...” Chiba Shiori blinked her eyes and continued the question, “I thought practitioners would wish for peace across the world?”

The question stunned Kazuki. After a few seconds, he said, “As long as humans are still existing in this world, the number of specters would never decline... Moreover, practitioners would somehow benefit from it upon completing the specters’ obsession.”

Chiba Shiori suddenly realized that one’s thought could be simple and straightforward, but there must be a purpose for one to do something. She had been curious about why Kazuki would never get tired of searching for specters, especially the vicious monster in Akichi High School. Even the practitioners would choose to avoid the monster, not to mention ordinary people. However, Kazuki had been investigating issues related to the monster. Apparently, he had yet to give up the plan to demolish the monster.

She finally understood why...

Nevertheless, Chiba Shiori thought that it was not an effective way for Kazuki to search for the specters by trying his luck. If she could help him search for specters or monsters, will he be interested in her? He might even take the initiative and talk to her about anything related to specters, so she would no longer have to annoy him.

She texted Kazuki for the past few nights... However, she thought it was a bad idea as she seemed to be shamelessly bothering him. She only hoped that Kazuki would not despise her as he was the only person who would tell her more about the mysterious world.

If she could provide an effective method in seeking for specters, she might be able to leave a good impression on Kazuki.

By having these thoughts, Chiba Shiori felt like she was playing GalGame...and Kazuki was the enemy she had to take down, but it would take a long time for her to complete her mission.

Nonetheless, this might be her once in a lifetime opportunity right now.

She tossed away her desire to go shopping and followed after Kazuki.

“What will happen if... normal people met with specters?”

Chiba Shiori knew that she could not treat those specters based on her prior general knowledge. All the spirits and ghosts in the movies were made-up. They might somehow have similar characteristics, but according to the concept that Kazuki had told her, there were significant differences based on the internet’s information and books.

“It depends on whether the specter is a good or evil one,” Kazuki spoke with an average tone. Passerbys could definitely hear his words, but they were in Akihabara, a place where peculiar stories were told. He would not have to worry that others could hear him. He said calmly, “Good specters would never pose a threat to humans. The only thing is that places where they have been for a long time, would become chilly and cool even during summer times... You might fall sick, but people with a strong physique would not be affected. As for evil specters, they are life-threatening. You would either become ill or die upon meeting them.”

“In other words, if a room were occupied with an evil specter and went unnoticed, the occupant would gradually become ill or experience strange events... These are some obvious traits.” Chiba Shiori pondered for a moment and said, “Is that so?”

“Well, more or less...”

“Perhaps... I know how I can help in seeking for specters. However, this method would most probably lead us to evil specters.”

Kazuki was astounded when he heard her words. He stopped walking immediately and stood still in place while looking at Chiba Shiori with a curious gaze. He could never despise Chiba Shiori because there were countless of postgraduates and doctoral students like her who were not allowed to cultivate in the previous incarnation of the Spiritual Academy. However, the latest enchanted talismans, pills, and even weapons were invented by them step by step.

Those were the precious products of the sweat and wisdom of numerous people. Since one was unable to become more intelligent through cultivation, the practitioner’s brain structure is the same as an average person’s. Many ordinary people were more intelligent than practitioners, but they were unable to cultivate. Therefore, he had never underestimated the wisdom of an ordinary person.

By looking at Kazuki, who was staring at her, Chiba Shiori smiled and said, “It’s actually simple. You can build a spirit-sweeping website, where the guests would not need to register as a member of the website. What they would need to do is to summarize whatever they had experienced before and then leave their address and a contact number for us to follow up.”

“It is now the internet era where the internet has turned the earth into a global village. We can immediately find out what happened in other countries ten thousand miles away through the internet... Even if you refuse to know, the netizens will spread the news. As long as you are online, you can access all kinds of information.”

Establish a spirit-sweeping website? It might be a good choice... However, Kazuki frowned, “How do I know if others are sharing authentic information?”

There is too much information online, but most of them are fakes. The so-called “authentic information” could even be partially correct. Moreover, one could have hundreds of identities on the internet. They could be a well-known scholar in a forum and a surgeon on another website...

As long as you had a keyboard with you, you would become a know-it-all omnipotent on the internet.

“That’s easy to work too...” Chiba Shiori had apparently completed the overall concept of the spirit-sweeping website. She said, “You can set up a type of ‘Help-Seeking Post.’ This post can only be sent to you, the administrator. If the users want to send a ‘Help-Seeking Post,’ they would have to register as a member first before going through some complicated operations such as filling up thorough personal details, uploading photos of the room, a selfie, and a minimum of 300 words summary of their past experience.”

Seeing that Kazuki was pondering in his thought, she continued, “Generally, most netizens won’t be that bored just to send a ‘Help Seeking Post’ only viewable to the administrators of the website. Moreover, they have to go through a series of complicated steps to generate one single post. However, if someone really did post... it could only mean one thing.”

“He could have met with an evil specter,” Kazuki finished her sentence with a serious look on her face. “You have a point. If they didn’t actually experience paranormal activity, they wouldn’t post a ‘Help-Seeking Post.’ Only those who felt that they had actually met with a ghost would seek help on the internet like a headless fly! They would try at the sight of the slightest hope because their lives are endangered.”

Even if there were someone bored enough to post a false “Help-Seeking Post,” Kazuki would not mind at all because building a spirit-sweeping website was better than him seeking the specters aimlessly. Therefore, when the time came, he would have more choices to operate.

“Let’s go...” Kazuki did not continue to stroll along the streets. He smiled toward Chiba Shiori, “Head towards the agreed venue of the offline gathering.”

“Alright.” Chiba Shiori looked at Kazuki, knowing that he had made up his mind. She was thrilled. Apparently, her idea was approved by him.

She did not say anything more. Sometimes, silence could be the best option to remind Kazuki of her existence in the future.

Soon the duo came to the Moe-chan’s Cafe...

It was undoubtedly a maid cafe. The moment they went into the shop, they could hear a soft and playful voice.

“Welcome home, master~.”
