I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

The black aura enveloped everything, and everything that came into contact with it quickly perished.

The wellhead was like a screen, with countless images flashing by rapidly.

Everyone in the village collapsed and died under the black mist, and resentment and curses began to spread.

The entire village was like a purgatory, with statues of the twins covering the entire village, sealing it off like a barrier.

A black aura soared within it. After an unknown amount of time, a man carrying a woodcutter's knife, who had come up the mountain, was tempted. He kicked open the Twin Jizo statues that formed the barrier, picked up a blurry-faced statue from the dry well in the village, and quickly walked out.

Behind him, a demon followed him out.

Yoshizaki had no idea what these images meant, but there was nothing else to do in this desolate world.

He simply kept watching, though these scenes seemed vaguely familiar to him.

It feels a bit like a game from a past life.

The man carrying a woodcutter's knife went out with the stone statue in his arms, seemingly having made a deal with the evil spirit in the statue. He began to use the statue to amass wealth and proclaimed himself the leader of the sect.

In order to satisfy the demon's demands, he began to search for the saintess, but each time he would defile her, making it impossible for the demon to truly descend.

During one of the battles, the man tore off the infant's limbs and distributed them to everyone.

The last saintess, determined to find a woman more suitable than herself, set off for another city with only one arm.

And when you see this—

Yoshizaki understood the meaning of these images.

"So this is ah!"

That man was the leader of the sect that targeted Tomie before. He selected girls as saintesses for his own enjoyment and incidentally as vessels for evil spirits, stripping them of their power!

On one occasion, one of the saints refused to die.

So after making a deal with the cult leader, she was asked to help him find other girls, and the saintess chose Tomie.

And so, he died.

Meanwhile, the images in the well continued to play.

After discovering the saintess's death, the cult leader set up the altar, but died en route, spitting blood from his mouth and nose. The statue of the evil spirit slowly oozed a jet-black liquid, which completely consumed the man.

He then stood up, but his body was unsteady and he fell to the ground, his chest pierced by a wooden stake.

The evil spirit pulled out the wooden stake and muttered to itself, "I should find a girl with deep resentment and sacrifice her to completely resurrect myself."

The scene shifts again, and Tomie, lying on the altar with her limbs twisted and her head tilted to the side, tears of blood streaming down her face, murmurs, "Yoshizaki...it hurts so much..."

All the images abruptly end here—

Almost instantly, Yoshizaki felt a chill run down his spine. Without hesitation, he abruptly looked behind him.

Suddenly, I realized that...

He was now in a world inside the well, and to his left was the corpse of the girl whose heart had been pierced, while in front of him were the corpses of the old priest and the blindfolded man.

At that moment, Yoshizaki discovered that at the spot where the girl's body had been pierced through the heart and died, a red butterfly had landed on her shoulder.

next moment,

She suddenly opened her eyes;

Countless blood-red threads of resentment burst forth from his body, spreading like a spider web throughout the entire room and then reaching the well.

The girl's body was torn apart, hung up, and slowly moved, finally tilting her head and hanging in mid-air;

At this moment, Yoshizaki found himself bound by countless red threads, but strangely, he felt that he could break free at any time if he wanted to.

He slightly raised his hand, and the countless blood-red threads on his hand immediately snapped.

The girl, whose eyes were bloodshot and filled with resentment, seemed completely unaware of Yoshizaki's actions. As she opened and closed her mouth, blood flowed out as if it were free.

"Help……"

"Found her, my sister, I... I miss her so much!"

Yoshizaki wanted to hear what she had to say next, so he didn't break the threads binding him.

Like a puppet, she was pulled by the strings, and the corpse floated in the sky. Approaching Yoshizaki River, her long fingernails and blood-stained hands gently cupped Yoshizaki River's face.

His lifeless eyes stared straight at him.

“You went from behind the door to the front, from death to rebirth, you will surely find... my sister, find her, find her.”

"I...I can't hold on much longer."

"The great punishment is about to descend again."

Chapter 145 I'm sorry, it's okay

"What is 'Great Compensation'? And who is your sister?"

Yoshizaki Kawa didn't hesitate at all. He had a vague feeling that this was very important news, and he thought that he might not be dead yet!

After all, what were those strange girl's words before?

"From behind the door to the front, from death to rebirth..."

Doors, perhaps, represent "death" in this world.

Is walking from behind the door to the front the door a journey from death to resurrection?

I am probably in a dying dream right now!

And that well opening is the so-called "door"?

Yoshizaki Kawa envisioned the dry well.

At the same time, after Yoshizaki asked the question, the girl in front of him suddenly grabbed his neck, her sharp nails scratching his skin, and her bloodshot eyes were once again filled with curses and resentment.

The next moment, all the blood vessels in her eyes rapidly writhed and transformed into the traditional Chinese character "虚" (xu), while her left eye formed the traditional Chinese character "门" (men).

"The Void Gate—"

"You've learned its name, you've glimpsed its truth, you deserve to die! Come to hell with me!"

Strictly speaking, even if one had only put it in their mouth for a second, they would have certainly died under the influence of the curse.

A moment later, after the tube in his throat was removed and his mouth was wiped, the other medications were injected.

So, Yoshizaki raised his hand, grabbed the girl's wrist, and with a gentle force, easily pried her off his neck and slowly moved forward.

A blinding white light, a white protective panel, a doctor wearing a mask, and a strange feeling of something stuffing in his mouth, like a gag, made Yoshizaki Kawa involuntarily want to swallow, but his body seemed to be out of his control at the moment.

He can only blink, and even raising one hand is difficult.

"woke up??"

Don't talk about milligrams; the amount is small, and a blood transfusion can save the patient.

"Don't eat random things next time."

The hands tightened their grip, but... even as blood gushed from his neck, Yoshizaki Kawa felt no discomfort whatsoever.

Feeling the cold liquid flowing in his veins, he seemed to react, his fingers trembling slightly. After nearly half an hour, he gradually regained consciousness.

The doctor immediately began taking notes;

"There is no facial edema, the heart rate is normal but the heart rate is high, and the patient has regained consciousness."

"Blink if you can hear us."

"You were lucky this time. The dosage of the medicine was small, and you arrived in time. In addition, the special medicine was delivered quickly, and you had a whole blood transfusion, which barely saved your life."

But Yoshizaki didn't notice that the blood flowing from his neck was initially bright red, but later it turned black, and eventually it was thick with resentment, like ink.

Yoshizaki blinked.

At this moment, Yoshizaki thought of the crying sound of Kawakami Tomie earlier. Perhaps, Tomie had pulled him back from the brink of hell?

It's important to know that this poison is almost equivalent to the poison from the Curse of Vengeance.

Just then, the tentacle was less than a centimeter away from Yoshizaki Kawa, about to pierce him and take him back to hell.

He couldn't even feel his blood being lost; in dreams, blood wasn't essential for survival.

Almost instantly, as Yoshizaki Kawa pried open the shrine maiden, a gigantic, blood-red tentacle suddenly shot out from the front of the well, grabbing at Yoshizaki Kawa with incredible speed. Just as Yoshizaki Kawa was getting bored and was about to engage it in a brief struggle...

Suddenly, he heard the sound of a girl crying.

"Yoshizaki Kawa, you can't get hurt! I won't let you die!"

As the blood in his veins was being drained by the replacement machine, Yoshizaki felt as if the blood was being drawn out.

While giving instructions, the doctor injected another dose of medicine into Yoshizaki Kawa's body.

The next moment, he was grabbed by the top of his head like a chick and lifted up abruptly. Everything around him began to shatter, and a hazy white light descended from the sky, illuminating the world.

Even the ambulance could have overturned en route, but he survived, which is nothing short of a miracle.

The Ju-on battle against Tomie Kawakami, right?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall a terrible movie he had watched in his previous life, the battle between Tomie and Kayako.
