Kyoto, Kitaku Kinkaku Temple.

Kinkaku Temple is called Shinoyon Temple, which is the most Buddhist temple with the most historical significance in Kyoto.

However, the current Kinkaku Temple is not an ancient temple built during the Shogunate period, but a temple rebuilt on its original site after the setting fires in the Kinkaku Temple in the 25th year of Showa.

"Report, the target is in the temple."

Outside the Kinkaku Temple, facing Sakai who came to hear the news, the special emergency attack troops saluted and reported.

"Are you sure?"

Hearing the report of the special emergency attack troops, Sakai looked up at the magnificent temple on the river.

"We investigated the whereabouts of the monks along the way and found that after completing the ritual, they hiked back to the Kinkaku Temple and have never come out again. According to the answers of the people around Kinkaku Temple, they did see a group of monks wearing sky covers passing by and entering Kinkaku Temple in the morning."

Sakai frowned when he heard the investigation of the special emergency attack troops.

He originally thought that these statues would be hidden after they got the heads of monks in Kinkaku Temple.

But unexpectedly, they returned to the temple in a noble manner.

"Does the rest of the monks in Kinkaku Temple know about their abnormalities?"

Shaking his head, he rushed to the army.

“Not yet.”

Hearing the answer from the special emergency attack troops, Sakai breathed a sigh of relief and then made a quick order.

"Since that's the case, let's fight quickly and send a small team of special emergency attack troops to infiltrate the residences of the monks of Kinkakuji who returned from Horikawa High School. They will all be resolved while the casualties have not yet occurred."

Judging from the investigation of the Tanaka case by the Kyoto Metropolitan Police Department.

These headless statues are not too dangerous. Even ordinary high school students can smash them with their own strength, let alone a small team of fully equipped special emergency attack troops.

Although, these headless statues returning to Kinkaku Temple now seem to be as usual, faithfully playing their own identity as a monk.

But this is only when the heads around their necks are intact.

Once the monk's head on the neck of the statue rots or is destroyed, in order to obtain a new head, the statues will become killing again.

"Remember, unless you have to go there, don't cause too much damage to Kinkaku Temple, especially those important cultural relics."

As an important historical relics, Kinkakuji Temple spent 740 million yen during its restoration, which is called the "Showa Restoration".

In case of any damage during the operation, it is not something that Sakai can compensate.

"Affect the order."

In fact, even without Sakai's reminder, these members of the special emergency attack troops knew the importance of Kinkakuji.

Therefore, they nodded, and the expression on their faces became a little more serious.

We need to take action without destroying the Kinkaku Temple itself as much as possible. Even the special attackers of the troops felt the arduousness of this task.

As Sakai's eyes were watched, the special emergency troops entered the Kinkaku Temple in an orderly manner.

The monks in the temple had already received their advance notice, so although they were uneasy, they still cooperated and did not make much move.

Bang bang-

Bang bang bang-

Just as the special emergency attack troops entered the world where the returned monks had not been long, the rapid shooting sounded from the temple courtyard.

Hearing these gunfires, Sakai's eyes couldn't help but twitched a few times.

I prayed in my heart that these special emergency troops should not overdo the temple.

“…”

After a brief shooting, the entire Kinkaku Temple was obviously inexplicably quiet.

Without explaining the specific reason, the monks in the Kinkaku Temple were a little uneasy when they heard the sound of gunfire in the temple.

They held their palms together and kept reciting the scriptures.

However, it can be seen from the trembling palm that these monks were not at peace.

Fortunately, there is no time to be quiet for too long.

The special emergency attack troops that were operating came back.

"Wait a minute, let me see your neck!"

Looking at these special rushing troops returning with neat steps, Sakai's face did not relax at all, but said with a serious command.

Hearing Sakai's order, the members of the special raiding troops stopped and then pulled down the neckline to reveal their necks without any scars.

Seeing this, Sakai breathed a sigh of relief.

...

However, the next day.

Sakai found that his breath was a little too early.

Arrange the people from the Metropolitan Police Department to follow up the broken headless statues in Kinkaku Temple and the heads of those monks.

However, in the police station, many calls were received from the police that there were many inexplicable figures near Horikawa. These people appeared in various places in Horikawa, maintaining various strange postures and motionless, and some of them had even affected the surrounding traffic conditions.

Doudu!

On the busy streets, a large number of vehicles were blocked on the road. They honked the horns at the intersection, making the already noisy scene even more chaotic.

“Is this the people mentioned in the police?”

I received an alarm call and came to the scene.

Sakai looked at the figure at the intersection with his arms raised and his arms were motionless like a scarecrow, and he couldn't help frowning, and his inner anxiety became even heavier.

The man who appeared by was not an isolated case, but in fact, there were similar situations throughout Horikawa.

These people have different identities, ages and even occupations, but they suddenly stopped around like an appointment, maintaining this inexplicable posture.

Doudu!

Facing the increasingly noisy sound of horns around, Sakai asked to the discovery patrolman.

"Have you tried it and took it away from here?"

"I have tried it, but no matter how much we drive it away, it won't take long to go back to where they were originally discovered."

The traffic police arranged for the chaotic traffic conditions around him to continue to sort out the chaotic traffic conditions around him, and Sakai walked to the man.

As he approached, Sakai gradually saw the man's appearance clearly.

This is a middle-aged man who looks thirty or forty years old, but there is nothing special about his appearance.

"Hello, sir."

Taking out his ID to the man, Sakai looked at him holding his arms motionless.

Under normal circumstances, it will not take too long for ordinary people to hold on to this posture and will not be able to hold on. However, there is no difficulty on the face of the man in front of him. He just raised his arms and had a numb expression on his face.

"I am a police officer in the Metropolitan Police Department. Everything you do has had a certain impact on social order. I need to know why you, and those who are like you, do this?"
