The Evil Spirit Hunter

Chapter 49 Before the exhibition begins

This side story is slightly related to the case of the ESH organization.it was located in the Edogawa district, a few days before Izami and Yon were assigned to this district, the person who will be the main character is Miori Futaka or commonly called Futaka or Futa

♦️

A few days ago at Edochukasei Junior High School, in the 8th grade, the atmosphere was very crowded and rowdy because there was no teacher

*Huh... like ordinary days, no teacher or any teacher this class is always crowded and noisy, they do not realize if they disturb other classes* futaka said while looking at the sky through the classroom window and not caring about the atmosphere of the class

*Well, it's fun because the clock is free, but even though it's a free clock, but they disturb other classes with their loud voices, they're childish* Futaka continued in the same position

Then a woman in glasses approached him

"Emm. anu.." said the woman nervously and timidly.

Futaka then turned her gaze to the woman

"What?" tanya Futaka

"Em... Your name is Miori Futaka right?" ask the woman

"Yes, then why?" ask Futaka

*Wait, I've never seen him before, is he a new student? if true, it seems like I missed the information and forgetfulness*, said Futaka, who questioned about the woman

"Anu... Do you want to be friends with me? I'm a new student here, so I only know a few, not all of them" the woman asked nervously and shyly

*It turns out to be true, he's a new student here, it seems I'm the one who lacks information and forgetfulness* Futaka said in her heart

"Of course, I want to know you more" Futaka replied

"Ah.. thank goodness" he said with relief.

"My name is Emi Tsukasa just call me Emi, nice to meet you, please help her!" keep Emi's words excitedly while introducing herself

"So, then please help her too huh, Emi" Futaka replied with a smile

"Anu... Can I call you Futa-chan?" ask Emi

"May, well it's up to you" replied Futaka

"Horeeeee! Futa-chan allowed it" Emi said excitedly and smiled

"Emi, since you're a new student, you don't know about this school, do you?" tanya Futaka

"Just a little bit" Emi replied

"Well, I'll tell you a little bit about this school" Futaka said

"Eh...really?"

"Yes, right"

Then Futaka told him a little about the school and Emi heard it carefully, not long after, the teacher came to her class and all the students immediately sat in their respective places, the teacher is female and has long brownish-colored hair

"Open page 55 and then read to page 105! mother wait for an hour and a half, by then you should have finished reading it" the teacher ordered in a loud and firm voice

"Eh??? wh why? that's a lot"

"Yes right, why do we have to read 50 pages this long in 90 minutes?"

"It's torture, why do we have to read 50 pages so long? one page is long, let alone 50"

All the students complained while asking

"This is a punishment for you, do you know? your free hour is 2 hours while it is only one and a half hours, if you can make a noise two hours, then why is it told to read one and a half hours just do not want to?" ask his teacher

*Ah, he is as usual.e every class we noisily will certainly be given such punishment, fiuhhh..this is indeed the payment sih*, said Futaka dihanya who exhales while putting on a resigned face.

"If you have not finished for an hour and a half, you will be punished to stand in the hallway while carrying 2 buckets of water until the lesson is over!" speak to the teacher in the same voice

They were forced to read it while the teacher was sitting in his chair looking at all the students, an hour and a half later, and the teacher was sitting in his chair, time runs out and on average many students who have not finished reading it to completion while only a few students finish reading. Futaka finished reading it to the end while Emi was not finished, who had not finished putting on a resigned face and went straight outside the classroom and stood up while carrying a bucket in the hallway, the class continued even though many students were punished

*Fiuhhh... fortunately I finished reading it, otherwise I will be lucky like them* said Futaka dihati who put a face of relief

"For those who have finished reading, you work on page 106 from top to bottom! it's only 30 minutes!" the teacher orders again with the same tone of voice

"Eh?? why were we being tortured again?!"

"Yes, I was tired even if I was just reading"

"Mom, give us some time to take a break"

Complaining all students

"Eh…?? is that true? why 30 minutes?! it looks like it's a total of 2 hours, like our free hour" said Futaka who did not accept in a soft tone

"Cast work! otherwise your fates will be like all of them!" the teacher orders with the same tone of voice

"Good!" answer them all

"It seems like it's better to stand in the hallway than to do all this" said Futaka, who felt sorry

They immediately worked on it, after 30 minutes, all the remaining students finished everything.The teacher continued his lesson and explained another lesson, after a few hours the lesson was finished and it was twilight, time, all the students who were punished in the hallway were allowed to go home. In the hallway, Futaka was walking alone to go home, then Emi approached her from behind

"Yeah, Futa-chan!" hello Emi

Futaka looked back

"Oh Emi, what's wrong?" tanya Futaka

"Go home with yuk" asked Emi

"By" replied Futaka

"Horay! you are the best Futa-chan!" praise Emi to Futaka with passion

They finally came home together, while walking home they told me about their lives and something made them laugh, in the middle of the journey Emi stopped for a moment as well as Futaka who was in front of him, they stopped at a fork in the road

"Hei Futa-chan" call Emi

"Why?" tanya Futaka

"How can you read 50 pages so fast while it's only an hour and a half?" ask Emi

"I don't know how, but when I was a kid I used to read a book that was very long every page and that was many times" Futaka replied

"That's it. I can't seem to do something as great as you" Emi said with a gloomy face.

"What are you talking about? are you the only one who can't do that? there are many students in our school who can't be so, you're not alone. Even if you're stupid, but I still want to be friends with you" Futaka replied while encouraging Emi

"Oh so, thank goodness then" Emi said with a smiley face

"Then it seems to be here, because my house is on the right" Emi said, pointing her way with her index finger

"Okay, my house is on the left" Futaka replied

"See you tomorrow!" emi said while waving her hand

They split up there and went home to each other

Next day

They met at a fork in the road and decided to go to school together, they walked while chatting and laughing.A few minutes they arrived in front of the school, and, many disciples were walking while chatting with their friends and some were running around,

"Futaka Oi! give us 230 Yen (about Rp.30,000) dong!" pinta was a woman waiting for him at the gate

A woman called him from the gate with two other friends

*Aw... They again, they again, until when will they ask for my money? next time I have to teach them a lesson!* Futaka said, she was upset

Futaka approached them and gave them the money

"Well, thank you!" said the woman

Then they left, Emi approached Futaka and asked

"Who were they?" ask Emi

"Ah, they are my acquaintances who have the nature of begging, I want to beat them but later even visited by the teachers and invite him to their room, it is troublesome for me, so I just resigned. they do that every day" Futaka replied

"Eh. they are insolent yes" said Emi.

"Right, but Emi." said Futaka who stopped her words.

"What?" ask Emi

"Never do you deal with them, they are school thugs and also sometimes they will use violence if the people they command do not obey them" Futaka said

"Ah, alright" replied Emi who understood

"The one who asked for the money was Fumiya, then his blue-haired right Sakura, then his short white-haired left Mikukaze, remember it was Emi!" futaka said while explaining their identity

"Good!" reply Emi with high notes

The bell rang, they ran quickly to class.

"Well everyone, our school will hold a painting exhibition!" the teacher said in a loud voice

"Huh?" asked all the students in surprise and confusion

"Why are you confused? this school has not had a painting exhibition for a long time!" ask his teacher

"No, we mean why is it so fast? though he said it was held every two years, but this is why even once a year?" ask one of the female students

"Okay everyone, the exhibition will be held two days from now!" the teacher said with passion and loud

*Eh.. he instead put aside the conversation* said the student was in his heart with a little annoyed.

"From now and in the next two days, you will learn to paint in a painting room, even if your time is short but use your time to paint! not for a fuss and rowdy!!" keep his teacher saying

"Good!" challenge all the students with a loud tone

"Alright, now you will be in the room to paint no.17" said the teacher

*Edochukasei School is a girls' school, most students of this school can paint so made room to paint a lot, this school was once the first champion in the Edogawa district, this school has been, then continue to be the first champion in Tokyo, and become the second champion in the Kanto region.This school is very great and extraordinary!* Futaka said in her heart while walking

Then they arrived at the painting room and began their study, they learned to paint again while being taught by the painting teacher

♦️

In the teachers and teachers' room

"So how's your decision? is the exhibition going to be done in the schoolyard or unused hall or maybe the class of the students?" ask one of the female teachers

"If in the school yard then 2 days from now it will rain if based on weather forecasts, while in the unused hall may be a good idea but the room is narrow enough for many people to visit" said Bu kepsek

"So…?'

"We will do it in all classes of students, even though this is just a painting exhibition.each class will show off 7 of the most beautiful paintings from each class, although it is a little but not all students can paint well, this school not only focuses on painting activities, but other activities must also be done" said Bu Kepsek

"Well, I'll tell the other teachers" replied the teacher

♦️

In the unused hall

"Hey, Fumiya.. Are you sure you can find a painting in a dark place like this and messy?" sakura asked as she walked following Fumiya with a body of fear and trembling

"Let's just calm down Sakura! it's nothing, after all there's nothing to be afraid of!" fumiya said with a calm and confident face

"Fumiya, are you sure about the rumors? why are you so quick to believe a rumor" asked Mikukaze

"I'm always interested in all the rumors, whether they're real or not" Fumiya replied

"Alright I understand" Mikukaze replied

"Rather than making a painting it's better to buy it or borrow it from someone" Fumiya said

"That's why you can't paint, right? it's worth every exam to paint your grades as D" said Mikukaze, who mocked Fumiya a little

"Be quiet, not everyone can paint" Fumiya said

After they walk around in the dark hall Sakura sees a painting though vaguely

"Hei Fumiya, it looks like I saw a painting in front of us" Sakura told him

"Eh seriously?!" ask Fumiya excitedly

Fumiya ran forward excitedly and happily

"Woah, so this is the painting" said Fumiya who was amazed.

"Wait a minute, why does the painting only depict a small marble of iron and around it there is liquid metal?" ask Fumiya

Two of his friends approached him

"True, is this really his painting?" ask Mikukaze

"Why is the painting just like that?" ask Sakura

"Agh! I just destroy it!" fumiya

Fumiya lifted the painting up and was about to slam it down, before it was slammed, the picture in the painting came out and formed a human form and strangled their necks and lifted it up with a liquid metal tentacle-shaped

"Aghh, why is this?!" ask Fumiya

"Based on a fucking human, how dare you destroy me!" said molten metal that is human-shaped and female-sounding

"Grrrhh, who are you?" ask Sakura

"I'm a nobody" he answered

"Gggghhh, please let us go!" pinta Mikukaze while trying to break free

"Unfortunately it can't" he answered

"Are you the leader of both of them?" ask the molten metal

"True, why?" ask Fumiya

"Then I have to kill you first!" said the liquid metal man

The molten metal strangled Fumiya's neck so strongly that Fumiya was almost out of breath and died, but he freed them

"Uhuk, uhuk" Fumiya's coughing voice

"Fumiya, are you okay?" ask two of his friends

"Geez, if you want to destroy an item you should look at it carefully first, do not just destroy it" said the liquid metal man

"W-Who are you?" ask Fumiya

"I told you, I'm a nobody, I'm just a liquid metal that's human" he replied

"How did you get out of the painting? and what the hell is your body? why is everything liquid metal?" ask Fumiya

"I was painted by a painter who had an ability, his ability to make all the paintings he painted into all out. I am one of his paintings, he painted me with a body like this, he painted me with a body like this, but I don't regret it" said the molten metal man

"Ah so"

Outside the hall, there was Futaka who accidentally passed by and heard a talk and her door opened slightly, out of curiosity, Futaka opened it and saw the three of them were talking to a liquid metal man

"Eh? why are you three here?" tanya Futaka

"And who is he, too?" continued

They were all shocked after seeing Futaka coming in

"Futaka, why are you here?" ask Fumiya who has a flat face

"I took a short break from painting lessons, because our room was close to this hall and accidentally heard your voice talking" Futaka replied

"Close the door Futaka" pinta Fumiya

"Eh? why?"

"Quick close!"

"Eh, okay"

Futaka closed the door

"Futaka, please keep this secret from all the students and teachers as well as the Principal" Pinta Fumiya pleaded with

"Eh?? tumben you're asking me for help?" tanya Futaka while putting on a face

Fumiya also hit Futaka on the head

"I'll hit you again if you have a face like that" Fumiya said

"Eh well, well" Futaka replied

"We ask for help to keep this a secret" Sakura asked

"Why is that?" tanya Futaka

"We found a painting that could come out like this, we didn't want the teachers and other students to know about this painting" Fumiya explained

"Ah so, so he is not a human being, but a painting" said Futaka who understands

"Yes, that's how it is"

"Why aren't you surprised Futaka? isn't this strange to you?" asked the astonished Sakura

"It's weird, but I've seen even stranger things" Futaka replied

"Then what is it?" ask Sakura again

"Those are the three thugs who often ask for my money to help me" Futaka replied

The three of them got upset and hit Futaka at the same time

"Oh-duh.. when this is just a joke, but why are you guys serious?" tanya Futaka

"Even though you're joking but you're mocking us" Fumiya replied

"If you ask me for help, then there are conditions" Futaka said

"Why should there be a condition to ask for help?" ask Sakura

"Alright, whatever you want" replied Fumiya who complied

"Eh? why are you following him?!" ask Sakura

"Alright, the conditions are quite easy, do not disturb my life at this school like asking for money on me every day, pranking myself when meeting you and others" said Futaka

"Alright, we accept" Fumiya and Mikukaze replied as they lowered their heads

"ah! you're this!" said Sakura who was upset then did the same as them

"Yes! we agreed" Futaka said excitedly

Then Futaka left and continued to learn to paint while the three of them remained there

2 Days later, this was the day that the Edochukasei school held a painting exhibition that was open to many people. All the students displayed a good painting in each class, Futaka stopped by their class of three thugs and the painting she wanted to keep secret was even on display in class

"Eh? why is the painting on display?" tanya Futaka

"Eh... two days ago when we wanted to bring him home, Ms. Kepsek even came and thought this was a painting of the three of us and took it by force and be like this" replied Fumiya

"Oh my goodness." said Futaka.

Seriate…
