I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 120: Kaga Kiyomitsu's epic promotion mission, Bone Girl's Wish (8.2k, please vote!)
Uesugi Tetsu's thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.

He clicked his tongue, looked towards the door, and understood after a moment.

——The voice was exactly the same as the man he had seen in the corridor before.

He just didn't expect that the man and woman would just happen to enter the room next to his, otherwise the man would not have knocked on his door the first time.

"The world is so big, why did you have to mess with me?"

Uesugi Tetsu sighed. He had actually noticed that there was something wrong with the other woman's aura when they were in the corridor before.

But he didn't want to care about it.

But they've been arguing for such a long time. If I continue to ignore them, they might interrupt me later.

Helplessly getting up, Uesugi Che opened the wooden door while maintaining the appearance of Bai Prajna.

"Thank you, thank you!"

The man was naked, with light bloodstains on his body.

After the door opened, the man immediately rolled and crawled into Uesugi Che's room on all fours. He didn't even realize that the guy who opened the door for him was also a demon.

Ryota Nishiyama leaned against the bed, covering the small wound on his neck and gasping for breath in fear. Cold sweat slid down his body onto the patterned plush carpet of the hotel.

He smiled thankfully, looking up and staring at the back of the man who looked strong and sturdy with his hands casually in his pockets.

Ryota Nishiyama thought he seemed to have knocked on the opposite door.

Da da da.

But in just a moment, the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the tile floor was heard, causing Ryota Nishiyama's sickly white body to tremble suddenly.

He yelled, "Close the door! Close the door! The monster is coming!"

"If you don't want to die, just shut up! You're so annoying!"

Uesugi Tetsu snorted coldly, and his hoarse, deep, and powerful voice echoed in the room, making Nishiyama Ryota in the back speechless like a chicken with its neck tightened.

call out!
The moment Uesugi Che opened his mouth to speak, a slender, white bone spur rushed towards his neck from the right side at a high speed.

Ding!
Uesugi Che calmly lowered his right arm, brushed off the dust and rags on the cold steel arm armor, and raised his eyes.

Two or three meters away, a woman with a delicate face and a hot body was also gazing at Uesugi Che with a bright smile.

She swayed her long white legs covered in black stockings that were torn in several places, and draped in a translucent silk dress as thin as a cicada's wing.

The woman smiled and spoke, but the resentment in her eyes almost overflowed: "Ah, Xishan-kun, I didn't expect you to have so many friends."

Uesugi Tetsu took in everything, but he had no extra thoughts in his mind. He was just wondering, "Is this woman... a human or something else?"

After a brief standoff of two seconds, a prompt popped up above the woman's head—

[Bone Girl (two stars)].

It turned out to be the Bone Girl.

Uesugi Tetsu recalled the knowledge he had crammed into his head before -

Bone Girls are usually demons transformed from female skeletons. Most of the reasons for their birth are that women suffered extreme treatment or torture during their lifetime, which gave rise to deep resentment attached to their bones after death.

Therefore, most bone girls are also vengeful demons, who can become Buddhas after killing their targets of revenge.

Of course, there are also a few bone girls whose target of resentment is the entire era or society. Such bone girls will turn into highly dangerous demons that kill indiscriminately and must be exorcised.

I still don’t know what kind of bone girl this is.

Uesugi Tetsu raised a finger and said, "First of all, I'm not friends with the naked guy behind you. It's just your bad luck that you chose the room next to mine."

"In that case, could you please give way for a moment?"

Before the Bone Girl could finish her words, another sharp bone spur suddenly shot up from the ground, and it was about to pierce through the most vulnerable part of Uesugi Che's chin and go through his crown.

But now he was frozen in mid-air, unable to move forward an inch.

A fearful expression appeared on the Bone Girl's face: "Get out of my way!"

Uesugi Tetsu expressionlessly clenched his five fingers, slowly crushing it into a pile of bone powder, and tutted unhappily: "I thought that after talking about it, it's not impossible to let..."

"But now." Uesugi Tetsu clenched his fists and bumped them together, revealing a cold, emotionless smile. "I've decided to beat you into ashes with one punch after another."

Even a clay figure would get angry, not to mention that Uesugi Tetsu claimed that he had not said anything extreme after opening the door - but even so, the Bone Girl tried to kill him twice.

Although the intention was simple and straightforward, this playful attack could not hurt Uesugi Tetsu.

But it's a matter of attitude.

Bone Girl's actions made Uesugi Tetsu abandon his original idea of finding out whether the guy behind the scenes was a scumbag.

"It just so happens that I can also test Bai Prajna's physical strength after her promotion."

Uesugi Tetsu twisted his neck, causing a series of explosions.

However, when Nishiyama Ryota in the room saw the profile of Uesugi Tetsu, he was so frightened that he was stunned. Then, he felt a warm feeling in his lower body, which wet a large area of the carpet.

"Ghosts! They're all ghosts!"

His body was shaking like a sieve, and he screamed as he picked up the landline phone on the wooden cabinet and called the hotel front desk.

Upon smelling the smell, Uesugi Che frowned and turned back, thinking that this room could no longer be lived in.

The Bone Girl still seized this opportunity, and her fingertips suddenly turned into bone spurs and stretched out, piercing straight into Uesugi Che's chest.

Stab!
She stared at Bai Prajna who seemed to have no reaction, showing a hint of joy, wanting to continue to let the bone spur penetrate deeper into the internal organs.

But then the Bone Girl found that she couldn't stab her.

The muscles of the evil spirit in front of her, whose aura was similar to hers, were like cast iron. The sharp bone spurs that she was proud of could not go any further after penetrating the muscles only half a centimeter.

"Only increased 1 point of physical strength..."

Uesugi Che glanced at the attribute panel and said unhappily, "That's all the energy you have. Didn't you eat?"

Sighing, Uesugi Tetsu took off his shirt and slowly opened his arms towards the Bone Girl: "Come on, try to kill me."

"you--!"

The Bone Girl's face twitched, and her arms turned into long bone blades, slashing at her with a roar.

The pale bone blade storm instantly enveloped Uesugi Che, constantly creating dense blood marks on his body.

The hot blood splashed on the wall, but when it was swung into the airtight trajectory of the bone blade, a calm sound was heard.

"The speed is good, but the strength is really lacking. However, this is not bad either. Flesh wounds heal quickly."

The muscular and burly shadow took a step forward and crossed the defense line formed by bone blades and bone spurs without any hindrance, once again appearing in the sight of the Bone Girl.

"Even using all my strength can only increase my physical strength by 12 points."

Perhaps it also has something to do with the fact that the Bone Girl is not a demon known for her high attack power.

Uesugi Che brushed the deepest bloodstain on his arm with his fingertips. He trembled his body slightly, shaking out all the excess blood on his body surface, and then controlled the surface muscles to force them to close to stop the bleeding.

In an instant, the scars that the Bone Girl had left on his body with all her strength disappeared.

After doing all this, Uesugi Tetsu looked down at the bone girl with a stiff face and eyes full of disbelief, and smiled at her.
"Now that you're done, it's my turn to take action."

"——Games should be fair, right?!"

Uesugi Tetsu raised his fist filled with the energy of the corona and swung it down mercilessly at the face below that was already begging for mercy.

boom!
Pale bone stumps and delicate human skin flew out together.

With just one punch, the bone shield that the Bone Girl hastily materialized in front of her face, along with her human skin, was smashed to pieces.

"Right..."

boom!
With one punch, the upper half of the Bone Girl's body was hammered into the wall of the hotel.

Uesugi Che stretched out his big hand and pulled the bone girl's tattered head out of the smoke and dust.

He stared at the pair of weak, pulsating soul flames and said calmly, "You don't know you're wrong, you just know you're going to die."

Hearing Uesugi Che's cold words, the soul fire in the bone girl's eyes suddenly froze.

A faint ray of clarity jumped out from the resentment in his heart.

Am I...going to die?

died.

But if he died, he would not be able to kill Ryota Nishiyama.

He will continue to live freely in this society, relying on that face and his rhetoric that doesn't contain a single word of truth. Who knows how many more people he will harm and how many more will be driven to death...

"I can't die, I can't die--!"

The Bone Girl roared, and dozens or even hundreds of bone spurs suddenly emerged from her body, all stabbing towards Uesugi Che who was nearby.

The roar stopped abruptly.

The bright knife light slowly faded away, and hundreds of bone spurs were split in two, revealing the same smooth cross-section.

Uesugi Tetsu held Kaga Kiyomitsu in his hand, looked down at the bone girl lying on the ground, and said calmly: "No one in this world is immortal, and I am no exception."

Just before Kaga Kiyomitsu fell, Uesugi Tetsu felt his ankle being tightly grasped by the bone girl.

He suddenly felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, so the speed of the knife tip falling slowed down for a moment.

"At least... please."

The bone girl said hoarsely, "We are going to kill Nishiyama Ryota."

Kaga Kiyomitsu wiped her eye sockets and wedged himself into the ground.

Uesugi Tetsu squatted down curiously and asked her, "Why?"

It was the first time he encountered a demon saying some useful last words - before this, those demons either ignored his words or cursed him with meaningless words.

But this time he didn't give the other party a chance to leave a last word, but he heard it unexpectedly.

And the Bone Girl happened to serve as a guinea pig for testing Bai Prajna's combat power after her promotion.

So it doesn’t hurt to spend half a minute longer listening to a few sentences.

The bone girl seemed to have not expected that she could survive, so she was stunned for a moment before she said, "It was Nishiyama Ryota who killed me, the me in my lifetime."

Uesugi Che had anticipated this. He stared at Gu Nu quietly, wanting to know what else she could say.

"Nishiyama Ryota is my first love."

"He had already graduated when he met me, but he didn't have a job, not even a part-time job. But after our relationship was established, he started eating my food, living my house, and using my things.

I had no choice but to work another job after school..."

"—but none of this matters."

"Because he said he would find a job and that he wanted to marry me in the future, I'm working hard for that future."

The Bone Girl murmured weakly, but the two balls of soul fire in her eye sockets became clearer as she spoke.

"Until one day, I came home and found him entangled with other women."

The Bone Girl said with a relieved tone, "Then he drove the woman away, knelt down and swore an oath that he would never do the same thing again. He also promised to find a job the next day."

"I believed it ridiculously."

"Then, for several years, almost the same thing happened again and again."

"In my hometown, oaths are very important...so I always chose to believe him, but every time my trust was betrayed."

"Until the last time, I saw a different woman in the same scene, and I finally couldn't bear it anymore."

The Bone Girl murmured, "But what awaits me isn't a future free from him, but rather unfamiliar woods, a shovel, and pain buried under earth."

"—To prevent me from telling these things and damaging his reputation, Nishiyama Ryota lured me to a forest in the mountains, knocked me unconscious, threw me into a pit, and buried me with dirt."

"I am dead."

Having said this, the resentful tone in the bone girl's voice had completely disappeared.

She seemed to have finally found her hardworking self from her previous life, and said cheerfully and respectfully, "So please, sir, don't let that scumbag go.

"Of course, don't let me go out of pity just because of this."

The Bone Girl raised her broken finger and pointed at herself. "To get close to him, I deceived and tortured him, and I also killed one of his lovers."

"If I kill someone who didn't deserve death for my own selfish desires, I'm not a good person at all."

She looked at Bai Prajna in front of her intently and said seriously,

"Mr. Evil Ghost, that's all I want to say."

——Love-brain is really harmful.

This was Uesugi Tetsu's first reaction, but he immediately fell into deep thought - was Bone Girl really a simple love-minded person when she was alive?
How can a person who is in love last for years and still choose to believe even after being betrayed several times?
This bone girl seemed to have been unexpectedly a good girl when she was alive.

Uesugi Tetsu felt a little regretful. He stared at the clear soul fire, thought for a moment, and said, "As for your other last words, if they are not too much, I will help you complete them."

"Mr. Evil Ghost, could you please let me go?"

"That won't work." Uesugi Tetsu shook his head. "Didn't you say that yourself?"

So the Bone Girl smiled and said, "That being said, if there's a chance to survive, I don't think anyone would give up."

After a pause, the Bone Girl reported a detailed address, and then said softly,

"Then please, Mr. Evil Ghost, scatter my ashes under the cherry tree at home. Don't worry, it's only an hour's drive away."

"it is good."

Uesugi Tetsu pulled out Kaga Kiyomizu again and aimed it at the Bone Girl's eye sockets.

She looked up, as if she could see the blue sky through the ceiling. "If only I had gone to Tokyo first..."

The pale blade fell.

……

"Don't come over here! I'm warning you, you evil ghost, don't come over here! The Yin-Yang Master from the Special Affairs Department is coming soon!"

In the room, Ryota Nishiyama, wrapped in a white bath towel, was holding a pair of scissors and waving them at Toru Uesugi who was slowly walking towards the door.

When he heard the words "Special Affairs Department", Uesugi Che couldn't help but laugh.

He withdrew from the state of Bai Prajna's incarnation, and transformed into a human again. He stared at the stunned man quietly and asked in confusion,
"Why are you afraid, Nishiyama Ryota?"

The evil ghost... turned into a human?
Nishiyama Ryota didn't react for a moment, but he soon revealed a ferocious expression and roared madly: "Murder is a serious crime in human society! If you kill me, you will never escape, even if you can become a human!"

"Then why do you think you can escape?" Uesugi Tetsu had appeared in front of him at some point, tightly grasping his wrist that was holding the scissors, and seeing the deep fear and regret in the other's pupils.

Uesugi Che shook his head regretfully.

"You didn't even bother to refute her statement...it was clearly just her one-sided account."

Ryota Nishiyama twisted his right wrist hard, trying to get the scissors out of the iron-like palm and fight back.

"Also, you seem to have misunderstood the difference in power between you and me. Is it because I appear too friendly?"

Uesugi Tetsu exerted a little force with his right hand, causing Nishiyama Ryota's five fingers to loosen and twitch, and he let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Uesugi Tetsu let go, looking down at Nishiyama Ryota who had fallen onto the carpet like a puddle of mud. He covered his twisted wrist and listened to him howling miserably.

"Damn it! Damn it—how much money did that stupid woman Goto give you! I'll give you double, no! Ten times!!!"

Nishiyama Ryota screamed: "Did you hear that? I'll give you ten times the price!!!"

Is this guy's brain broken?

Uesugi Tetsu felt genuinely puzzled by Nishiyama Ryota's inconsistent behavior.

But forget it.

There are many people in this world who think that money can solve all problems, and this one is no exception.

As long as he was sure that the Bone Girl had not deceived him just now, that would be enough.

"But I still want to say..."

This time, Uesugi Tetsu did not take out Kaga Kiyomitsu, but took out a rusty hatchet that had not been used for a long time.

The blade was dull, but that was just right.

"A scum like you deserves death a hundred times over."

There were screams of misery, rising and falling like a roller coaster.

……

Uesugi Che put away the blood-stained hatchet and stomped on the head that was filled with resentment and fear.

Then he pulled out a small piece of Kaga Kiyomitsu's blade, allowing the "Sorrow of Separation" to completely erode everything related to Nishiyama Ryota.

If what Nishiyama Ryota said is true, and someone from the Special Affairs Department will come later, then Uesugi Tetsu doesn't want to make things too difficult for them.

——So it’s better to destroy some obvious evidence first.

After doing all this, Uesugi Che looked at the prompt that popped up before.

[You killed the two-star demon bone girl and obtained 265 soul ash! ]

[You killed the Bone Girl with Kaga Kiyomitsu's Blade of Farewell. Kaga Kiyomitsu's quality has been slightly improved!]

[Your Kaga Kiyomitsu: Farewell Blade has reached the critical point for advancement! ]

[Next, your Kaga Kiyomitsu: Farewell Blade must kill a demon of at least three stars to advance to the epic level!]

[Note: Before this, the Zanpaku talent is ineffective! ]

[You have obtained the Bone Girl's Wish (special item)! ]

"Do you want to use Kaga Kiyomitsu to kill a three-star demon?"

Hearing Uesugi Tetsu's words, Kaga Kiyomizu in his hand also responded with a cheerful buzzing sound, as if looking forward to a big battle.

Samsung demon.

The conventional idea is of course that he would enter Edo Castle, capture a not-so-strong three-star demon, and then kill it with full firepower.

"However, since I'm already a member of the Special Affairs Office, why would I need to go through so much trouble?"

Uesugi Tetsu tapped the hilt of his sword and thought, "It's just a three-star demon, not a ghost or god-level being... I can tell Nanjo-san to beat the demon half to death and then I'll go and reap its head."

Hey, if you have someone to back you, you can do whatever you want.

But Kaga Kiyomitsu may be disappointed.

After casually glancing at the slight improvement in the proficiency of the three skills, Uesugi Tetsu took out [Bone Girl's Wish].

The small white jade box fell into his hands.

Uesugi Che opened it and found a pile of pure white ashes inside.

[Bone Girl's Wish (Special Item)]

[How to use: After burying the "Bone Maiden's Wish" in the Bone Maiden's desired grave, the buryer will randomly gain a permanent buff effect.]

Everything she expected was but a fleeting illusion, and everything she hoped for was shattered like a dream. Her only remaining wish in this life was to return to her homeland.

"That's quite generous."

Uesugi Che solemnly closed the jade box and put it back into his storage backpack.

He originally thought that the drive wouldn't take much time and he could just bury the body on the way back, but he didn't expect there would be an extra reward.

This made Uesugi Tetsu feel a little embarrassed, so he had to take it seriously.

After Kaga Kiyomitsu had corrupted everything related to Nishiyama Ryota into a pale color, Uesugi Tetsu took out spare clothes from his storage backpack and changed into them.

Then, he leaned against the door frame and waited for the arrival of the Yin-Yang Master from the Special Affairs Department.

About ten minutes later, Uesugi Tetsu saw a young man armed with a gun and wearing a Special Affairs Department uniform hurriedly running up the stairs.

But in Uesugi Tetsu's perception, the spiritual power in this young man's body was less than one star, and his physical strength was just barely enough, not much different from the elite among ordinary people.

—but he even buttoned his clothes wrong.

No, the Tsuzuki District Special Affairs Office sent this newbie here because they think there are too many people and not enough salaries to pay?

"Hey!"

Uesugi Che called out to the other person.

The young man shuddered and subconsciously reached for his waist, trying to pull out his gun.

"Your first reaction was to draw your gun?" Uesugi Che, who was already more than ten meters across, held the young man's hand and smacked his lips. "Are you sure the person you sent isn't a clerk?"

Because generally speaking, when scared, an Onmyoji's subconscious reaction would be to summon a Shikigami or perform a defensive Onmyoji technique, while a samurai would put his hand on the hilt of his sword...

In the Special Affairs Office, the first people to draw their guns were only civilian personnel who lacked their own abilities but were equipped with exorcist firearms.

"My name is Uesugi Tetsu. I have just resolved a supernatural incident in the hotel. I exorcised a two-star demon bone girl. There are currently no casualties in the surrounding area."

Uesugi Tetsu patted his shoulder and said, "If you have any extra questions, you can go to Nanjo Aimi, the Onmyoji of Arakawa District, who is currently in Yokohama. I work under her."

The young man was stunned for a long time before he put the pistol back into his waist, bowed deeply to him and shouted,

"—Yes! Senior!"

This young man's vigilance was almost non-existent... Just based on his words, he put back the only weapon in his hand that could hurt the demon.

"never mind."

Uesugi Tetsu shook his head.

The development of the Special Affairs Office here is not his concern. It will be handled by the senior officials of the Special Affairs Office, such as Nanjo Aimi.

Hearing the commotion gradually rising around him, Uesugi Che did not stay there for long. He quickly left the hotel and walked to the street, where he called a taxi using the mobile phone app.

——Let the local special affairs office worry about the hotel’s compensation.

……

After getting in the car, Uesugi Tetsu discovered that the driver was an old man with a face full of wrinkles and gray hair, who was at least in his sixties or seventies.

The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at the navigation on his phone for a long time before he asked calmly, "Are we going to Yubarakawa Town?"

"Yes."

Uesugi Tetsu nodded, then saw the old man's driver's license on the side and discovered that he was already sixty-eight years old.

We live in an aging society.

Now seventy has become a good age to strive for success.

The old man took a while to confirm the route, then said with a smile while driving, "Young man, are you going there for a trip? Then you must try the hot springs in Yubarakawa-machi..."

"No. I'm just doing something for a friend."

Uesugi Tetsu responded calmly, ending the topic with just one sentence and plunging the car into silence.

But Uesugi Tetsu was also happy to have some free time.

It must be very torturous for him to communicate with elderly people who take a long time to say a word.

Just as the bone girl said, in just over an hour, the car drove from the city center of Tsuzuki District to a deserted country road.

The old Toyota slowly stopped next to the wooden sign that read "Yuharakawamachi". The old man in the driver's seat slowly spoke,
"Hey young man, we're here."

Uesugi Tetsu thanked the old driver and got out of the car. Then he saw the old man pick up his phone again, squinting his eyes and operating it with difficulty.

Such an old man actually has to drive a taxi to earn a living...

Ding.

Before Uesugi Che could sigh for two seconds, the five-digit fare displayed on his mobile phone shattered all his thoughts.

Tsk, if I were in your shoes, I would do this kind of retirement work too.

The Toyota behind him slowly drove away. Uesugi Tetsu fixed his eyes on the wooden sign and muttered to himself,
"Yuharakawa Town, 4-chome, 2-1."

The location of the village was correct, and the next step was to search each house according to the house number.

Uesugi Tetsu walked into Yuharakawamachi and soon discovered that the village seemed a little different from the traditional Japanese countryside he had in mind.

Normally, a rural area like this one, surrounded by mountains and fields, should be very backward.

——There is only one convenience store in the entire village, the streets are sparsely populated, and there is only an elementary school or at most a junior high school in the village.

But Uesugi Tetsu found that there were unexpectedly many people walking on the street, and many of them were young people in their twenties and thirties, and there were even three or two foreign faces among them.

He remembered what the old driver had said before: he must try the hot springs here.

"Is it because of the hot springs that the tourism industry has flourished..."

Uesugi Tetsu started searching one by one according to the house numbers, but after he had searched twice, he still didn't find the house that corresponded to the address that Gu Nu said.

strangeness.

Uesugi Tetsu asked an elderly woman who was passing by, "Grandma, do you know where the house at 4-chome, 2-1 is?"

But who would have thought that the old woman's expression changed instantly after hearing the address. Her originally kind face immediately wrinkled into a ball. She waved her hand and stepped back.
"I don't know! I've never heard of it! There's never been such a house number here!"

The old man seemed to curse again, and then left quickly as if he was avoiding the plague god.

Uesugi Toru stared at her back and frowned slightly.

Next, Uesugi Tetsu randomly found a dozen local elderly people in Yuhara River Town.

Originally, these old people were all enthusiastic in talking to him, the "tourist".

But as soon as Uesugi Tetsu reported the address, these old people were so afraid to avoid him that they left in a hurry without saying a word.

"There's something fishy going on..."

In the setting sun, Uesugi Tetsu paced back and forth a little impatiently. He was wondering whether he should release the Hundred-Eyed Demon Eyeball and then use the method of elimination to determine the location of the house.

But as he walked, Uesugi Tetsu suddenly found that the surroundings had become quiet.

He looked behind him and found that he had unknowingly walked into a secret path in the forest.

Looking back, an old plaque with the four big characters "Goto Baths" engraved on it came into view.

Goto—seems to be the last name of the bone girl.

Uesugi Tetsu shifted his gaze slightly and saw the address [4-chome, 2-1] on the house number that was so old and even rotten.

What a coincidence.

Now happened to be the time of the devil, and the place he had been searching for for a long time suddenly appeared in front of him at this moment.

"What a coincidence?"

Uesugi Chelang laughed, put on the sad and cold mask of Prajna on his face, and then pushed open the door of Goto Bathhouse and walked in.

Uesugi Tetsu looked around and asked loudly, "Is there no one to welcome the guests?"

No one responded.

In the quiet Goto Bathhouse, only dust was blown up by the wind from the door and hit the hem of Uesugi Tetsu's clothes.

The frightened deer in the pond had long since dried up and cracked, with not a drop of water left; the wind chime by the door had its straps broken, and the colorless bell lay on the cobblestone ground, without a sound.

It seems that although this bathhouse has some strange features, it should have been a long time since that era.

The entire Goto Baths was unexpectedly large.

In a normal bathhouse, after opening the door, you would walk into the front desk, and then there would be two bathing pools for men and women. However, Goto Bathhouse actually left a small path of about 20 to 30 meters between the entrance and the main body of the bathhouse.

The place that the Bone Girl told him to go to was under the cherry tree in the yard, so Uesugi Che did not go into the house, but walked around the yard several times.

Finally, he stopped in front of a small, bare, black tree that had long been dead.

"Is this the cherry tree she mentioned that would grow tall and large, and be extremely eye-catching..."

Uesugi Tetsu took out the jade box and sighed when he saw it emitting a faint fluorescence.

It seems that the last note of The Bone Girl's Wish does not seem to be an exaggeration, but simply describes the facts.

He squatted down, took out a rusty hatchet and started digging the soil.

After a while, a small pile of moist soil appeared next to Uesugi Tetsu's feet, and when he wanted to continue digging, he felt the hatchet hit a hard object.

Ok?
What's in the topsoil?
Uesugi Che reached out and dug out a small pink iron box from the pile of dirt. The box was tied up with layers of tape and had a label on the inside.

After sweeping away all the dirt, he squinted his eyes and made out the meaning of the crooked words on the label.

——[Goto Yoko’s wish box].

Uesugi Che was slightly stunned.

Goto Yoko?

Goto...

Yezi!?
