I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

He just felt sorry for the child who was belittling himself so much; Yoshizaki didn't want to see this situation.

Seeing the words left by Tomie, he understood that after experiencing intense stimulation, Tomie believed that everything she had experienced was a dream, so she dragged the entire van into her dream.

But whether it works or not, we should at least give it a try.

In this world, many people care about you, so why be so insecure?

"You have to enter her world and tell her that your own world is the real one."

Yoshizaki Kawa felt a mix of emotions, a complex blend of feelings. He had always thought that by dressing Tomie in his dream, he had built up her psychological defenses.

I don't know why I wanted to leave this message. Maybe it's because my inner desires are still churning, and I still want to keep deceiving myself that all of this is real.

Perhaps I should also be grateful to myself for allowing me to have such a beautiful dream before I die.

Of course, Yoshizaki was not afraid that she would become a dream ability under Tomie's "I think" ability. After all, her "I think" targets were Kayako and Mako. If she really succeeded in thinking, she would probably have disappeared long ago.

The lingering dream, like a final burst of light before death, is like a century in a second. My life shouldn't have so many exciting stories like in the movies; my time should also remain in that afternoon.

—Can someone like me really make true friends?

—Does someone like me really deserve to be cared for?

It's not worth it. I have no value, and there's nothing extraordinary about this world. The assassination and battle in the dark, the splattering and scalding blood, woke me from my dream.

She even felt that meeting herself was a dream, and that the real her had already died on that afternoon when she committed suicide.

Tomie, no matter how strong she appears on the surface, her past experiences are enough to reveal the vulnerability within her.

Perhaps, my life ended in high school.

But in reality, the defenses they built were still fragile.

In fact, Yoshizaki Kawakami didn't know if what he was doing would work.

However, as mentioned before, people who fall into a dream within a dream lose their ability to protect themselves. If they die in the double dream, they will also become a vegetable or die in reality due to a loss of consciousness.

—Through his previous conversations with himself in his dreams, Yoshizaki knew all this, but he still did it anyway.

……

In reality, Kotoko Higa closed her eyes, conserving her energy. After Yoshizaki Kawa fell asleep, there was no movement for a long time, but she knew that her anxiety at this moment was useless.

However, even though Kurosawa Yae had honed his skills in the basement for decades, he still couldn't contain his rising emotions and anxiously circled around Yoshizaki River.

She sensed her sister's presence shifting between near and far, disappearing abruptly after traveling forward for a while, then returning behind her and continuing to move forward at high speed.

However, during this movement, his sister's presence became increasingly distant.

It's like being completely isolated from another world.

Once that time comes, I won't be able to sense my sister's presence anymore, and then there will truly be no hope left.

That's why she was so anxious.

Kurosawa Yae even wanted to crash into Yoshizaki Kawa's dream to see what he was doing at that moment, whether he was fast asleep or really looking for clues.

However, due to his fear of the amulet around Yoshizaki's neck and his strange constitution, Kurosawa Yae dared not act rashly.

At that moment, Kotoko suddenly opened her eyes and slammed her hand on the steering wheel, startling the anxious Yae Kurosawa.

"Still jumping up and down at a time like this?"

She shifted her gaze from the mirror to a place far behind her. Although Kotoko's intuition wasn't particularly strong, her special constitution and the power of the door gave her a keen sense of ghosts—she just couldn't perceive their strength.

Just now, she sensed that a pair of eyes were watching her from behind!

However, the distance of that gaze was extremely far. If he were to use exorcism methods, he could only drive it away, not keep it.

"So—this is forcing me to use other methods?"

"Hehe, that's fine. It's been a long time since I've done anything. I've been around that guy for so long that I almost thought I was a righteous exorcist."

Listening to Higa Kotoko's self-talk, Kurosawa Yae felt an inexplicable pressure and didn't dare to say a word.

The next moment, Kotoko raised her hand, and her wide sleeve slipped down, revealing her wrist marked with bloody scars.

The wrists are intertwined, and the two hands are joined together to form the shape of a door.

"This is--"

Kurosawa Yae's eyes widened in shock as she looked at Kotoko. This was... the power of the Gate?!

How did this person in front of me acquire the door?

It is important to know that only the dead can control the gates of hell. Even if a human merely approaches the gates, they will lose their sense of life and death and become an evil spirit!

But how could this mortal have mastered the power of the door?

Kotoko clasped her hands together and her lips moved slightly, as if she were communicating something.

The next moment, a crow on a distant telephone pole suddenly heard an ancient word;

“Empty mortar”.

Before it could react,

"pat-"

As the sound of flesh being squeezed and blood was heard, followed by the sound of blood dripping, several black feathers slowly drifted down from the sky.

The crow that was just standing on the telephone pole has long since turned into a puddle of mud.

Further away, in a brightly lit room, a man had his eyes closed. The next moment, he abruptly opened them, and just as he opened his mouth to say something, almost instantly, his face was squeezed and distorted by some force.

"boom!"

Like the sound of a watermelon being crushed, blood under high pressure suddenly splattered in all directions, and the entire enclosed room was instantly showered with blood.

The people inside were immediately drenched in splattered blood. As the mangled flesh hit the ground with a dull thud, the people inside remained silent.

Until a foreigner couldn't help but curse out loud:

"fauk! What on earth happened? All I did was send him to the scene to check the situation, how could this happen?"

“Mr. Charles, you are facing Japan’s strongest exorcist, and also the most evil and ruthless exorcist, Kotoko Higa.”

"That's normal. Let's get out of here first. I reckon that Kotoko guy will issue an arrest warrant soon and have the police search the bloodstained room. We can't clean it up in a short time. It's best to escape now."

"What about Kurosawa Sashige?"

"Give up. It seems she wasn't captured by Silverwing's gang. She's probably in Kotoko's hands right now. Do you really think you can take her from her?"

Upon hearing this, and recalling the man's miserable state just now, everyone shook their heads repeatedly.

"Okay, let's go then. I'll take care of erasing the information here."

The man slowly put down the book in his hand. Because the book had been in front of him, not much blood had splattered on his face.

……

Kotoko Higa's eyes remained expressionless; she simply made a phone call without any emotion.

“There’s a room in a residential building near a factory in the northern part of Saitama Prefecture that should be covered in blood right now. Go there and arrest everyone you need to arrest. If anyone resists, execute them on the spot, regardless of age.”

Kurosawa Yae remained silent. Only now did she realize that the person in front of her... seemed to be a ruthless person as well?

Well, at least when he broke into his own village of gods, this guy didn't use this ability.

However, it is indeed impossible to use the power of another door near the door.

Each door has different attributes; some doors will kill you if you see them, some will kill you if you hear them, and some will kill you if you know them.

Furthermore, depending on the type of door, the manner of death varies greatly.

Generally speaking, the methods of death are based on the eighteen hells, such as seeing one's own door, which can lead to death.

The manner of death was either being impaled or hanged.

Just like the way he died.

This is how one dies in the Iron Tree Hell, one of the eighteen hells.

She had just observed that Kotoko's door was so tight it could crush a person to death.

"Is it a shocking hell?"

Chapter 191 Tomie's Dream

After falling asleep, Yoshizaki felt as if his body was a rootless duckweed, floating aimlessly in the water.

The next moment, as if there were whirlpools in the water, the dream began to fall heavily. With a weak struggle, Yoshizaki Kawa suddenly sat up in bed, panting heavily.

When he woke up, his previous memories came flooding back like a tidal wave.

My name is Yoshizaki Kawa, and I'm a high school student... no, I'm a university English teacher, and I'm also a top student who returned from studying abroad!

Memories from before the dream also squeezed his thoughts, drilling into his brain and pressing on his head. The extremely digestible knowledge almost burst Yoshizaki's brain. After a while, Yoshizaki, with veins bulging on his forehead, finally digested these memories.

Entering Tomie's dream, they stuffed him with many memories that didn't exist before.

In this dream, I am Tomie's classmate, a high school student named Yoshizaki Kawa.

Orphaned, quiet and reserved in class, with mediocre grades, he belongs to the least distinctive type of person.
