On this day and time, Shibuya was dark and lifeless at the moment. A "curtain" with a radius of about 400 meters was dropped around the metropolis.

8:14 p.m (20:14) Shibuya, Tokyo

At the Shibuya mark city, the entrance of the gourmet street, outside the "curtain."

"No one at all? Not even at the intersection in front of the station? This is Shibuya on Halloween. Something seems to have happened there" Kugisaki says.

In this group, there was Kugisaki, Maki, head of the Zen'in clan Naobito, and special grade Liu Kang.

"Everyone is fleeing to the edge of the "curtain." And they are all shouting "Bring Satoru Gojo here"

Naobito huffs.
"Non-sorcerers couldn't possibly know him. Someone must have told them to say it. Can't we break the "curtain"?"

Liu Kang scoffs.
"You humans, always thinking how easy it can be"
Naobito glares at the spirit.

"We're having trouble right now. Both sides of the "curtain" don't deny the access of sorcerers. So we can't break through by force. It would be quicker to find the curse user who dropped the "curtain" and deal with him directly"

"So, that's what you want us to handle?" Maki asks.
"No, please wait here for now"
Maki was confused.

"Lady (y/n) is trying to uncover who put on this "curtain." So right now at the moment, she's safe around a barrier she put around herself so she wouldn't be found. Give her some time" Liu Kang says.

"Ha, I don't think having a cursed spirit is necessary for extra support. They just become excess baggage" Naobito says.
This irks Liu Kang.
"You should look in the mirror old man. Besides I didn't agree to help you out, but my lady insisted. I will never go back on her words so be grateful my brothers and I are even doing this"
"Why did she summon you all?" Kugisaki asks.

"We don't know. She wouldn't tell us other than to support you all. However, this may have been out of her instincts, because she wasn't so sure either. Other than the throbbing pain she's been feeling for quite some time in her head" he says.

"Do you think it means anything?" Maki asks.
"I think she's trying to figure that out," Liu Kang said with worry.

On the other side outside the "curtain." JR Shibuya station south exit.

In this group trio was Panda, Atsuya Kusakabe, and special grade Jiang.

"Not only using a high-intensity barrier technique, they even named Satoru Gojo. These are the same people who attacked at the Goodwill event. The higher-ups decided to minimize the damage and send Satoru Gojo to quell the turmoil in Shibuya alone" Atsuya says.

"We, Nanami, the old man of the Zenin family, and Mei Mei all have to wait outside the "curtain," and are responsible for dealing with those who escaped from Gojo Satoru. Once you're in the "curtain," you can't contact anyone"

"Minimizing the damage" applies only to sorcerers, right?" Panda asks.
"Wait, so would that mean that it wouldn't matter if ordinary people get hurt?" Jiang jumps in.

Atsuya grunts.
"Just leave it. Unlike last year's Christmas event, it's already happened. I also think this approach is the most prudent. Besides, I just went to the inside of the "curtain," it's quite peaceful there. Although those people are panicking"
