I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

He was genuinely afraid that something might happen to Kayako. Regardless of how heartbreaking the poor child's experience was, what if the couple went too far and beat Kayako to death?

Then it's likely that both you and your neighbors will soon be starting the second cycle of Ju-on's story—escaping for your life!

"OK then."

She decided to write all these accounts down in her diary later, and when she made money in the future, she would definitely repay her teacher tenfold!

If a mobile phone costs 20,000 yen, ten times that would be 200,000 yen. If the phone bill is at least 1,000 yen per month, you would have to pay back 10,000 yen.

Waaah, how about five times the amount?

She looked distressed, suddenly realizing she would owe a debt of one million yen.

Seeing the latter's troubled look, Yoshizaki smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it for you tomorrow. I'll go back now. Remember to lock all your doors from the inside later."

"Um……"

She nodded. To be honest, she was already used to living here alone.

Most of the time, the mother wouldn't come home, and the father would go out to have fun and stay out all night.

So, he lives alone in the house most of the year.

Before, when I was home alone, I was afraid of ghosts and dared not get out of bed to go to the toilet, even if I had to pee, I would hold it until dawn.

But she doesn't resist being alone.

But at this moment, perhaps because of her teacher, she felt a slight resistance to being alone.

She also longed for someone to talk to, someone to hold her hand, someone to... hug her.

Standing at the window, watching Yoshizaki River's departing figure;

She felt somewhat lost and dejected.

Having experienced the light, one can no longer endure the darkness.

She felt that her teacher had pulled her out of the mire. He was so gentle and had a light in his eyes. He was her only support in this world.

Kayako even thought that she might go crazy if her teacher disappeared one day!

Meanwhile, in the corner behind Kayako.

One hand, as if being suppressed in some way, is struggling to climb out of the drawer, but no matter how hard it tries, it can only stick out one finger.

At that moment, Kayako turned around;

He walked into his room, while the finger retreated step by step until it disappeared completely.

……

Yoshizaki was walking on the road.

At that moment, I suddenly felt a cold wind blow across my back;

"Yoshizaki River——"

In a place, whether far away or nearby, a familiar voice suddenly called his name;

"Huh? How could someone call my name in the middle of the night?"

He thought it was an auditory hallucination.

But the next moment, Saito Asuka's voice inexplicably appeared behind them;

"Yoshizakigawa-senpai!"

"Saito?"

He turned around instinctively and exclaimed in surprise;

But there was nothing behind him.

Suddenly, a chill ran up my back and up my spine, and I broke out in a cold sweat.

He remembered.

This world is not only home to Ju-on and Tomie, but also to another demon!

The devil!

This ghost will approach because of its resentment, and once you answer its call—

It will pull people into darkness and devour them!

At this moment, Yoshizaki Kawa was sweating profusely.

Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind brush past his ear. He turned around sharply and was standing under the telephone pole in front of him.

Standing there was a little boy dressed in red, with a bluish-purple face and a strange smile.

As Yoshizaki Kawa felt a chill run down his spine, he also remembered the origin of this demon.

This was also the first ghost I encountered.

It's not some other kind of ghost, but a demon! It has a thousand faces, and everyone who sees it will see a different one!

Drawn by Kayako's resentment toward her family, she lingered outside, too afraid to get close to Kayako.

Was the reason I saw it before because I got close to Kayako, which is why I was being targeted?

At this moment, it tilted its head slightly;

Then——

Run wildly!

The sound of footsteps hitting the ground was loud and clattering. The streetlights seemed to be affected by electromagnetic interference and began to flicker intermittently.

One light, one shadow; Yoshizaki glanced at his ankle.

He couldn't help but curse under his breath, "Damn it!" and then quickly started limping away.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 40 There are still many good ghosts in the world

Yoshizaki's posture was somewhat disheveled, but at this critical moment of life and death, he also unleashed unimaginable potential, putting on a limping 100-meter sprint!

But it was useless.

After all, this guy is a ghost!

The guy behind him was going at the speed of an 80-mile-per-hour dump truck, as if to say, "You're about to hit the jackpot," before crashing into him hard.

At the same time, the clawed hand tried to grab his shoulder, but just then, a faint light seemed to flash, and the clawed hand seemed to hit a barrier, its body was instantly bounced back, and several cracks appeared on its cheeks.

Yoshizaki was sent flying by the terrifying force, his body hunched over as he slammed into the wall to one side.

"Ahem,"

Yoshizaki Kawa was hit and lost his breath. He coughed violently, which affected his heart and lungs, causing a sharp pain.

But perhaps because of the protection provided by the bracelet, it was only a slight pain and nothing serious.

He really couldn't understand why this ghost would target him when he had never provoked it at all!

At that moment, he suddenly remembered the first time he saw this ghost; it was right after he had taken Kayako home and left—

"Gaya coconut?!"

Thinking of this, he immediately understood that since this ghost was summoned by the resentment of his family, he had already encountered a curse when he came into contact with Kayako.

Furthermore, he also figured out why Kayako's father suddenly fell from the third floor!

because--

The demon had actually been lingering outside, but dared not go in because of Kayako. You should know that Kayako's hair-woven bracelets could become powerful exorcism tools, which shows that her own power was already very strong.

Even when Kayako was at school, the demon was afraid of her presence and dared not approach her.

However, because she used a great deal of her power to make the bracelet, which weakened her body, and then she took it out of the house herself, the Po-Xu Demon dared to break into the room and almost killed Kayako's father.

"There are still more good ghosts than bad ghosts in this world. But, looking for me? Brother, I haven't done anything wrong!"

As he watched the little boy slowly walking towards him, he raised his hand, his sleeves drooping, and he clenched his fist, revealing the grass ring on his wrist.

The evil spirit, which had been moving forward, stopped, its pale face expressionless.

Or rather, from the past to the present, even when it was repelled by itself, its face remained completely calm.

A ghost is a ghost; it is nothing else and has no thoughts or emotions.

They simply act according to instinct and rules.

It stood still, motionless, watching the Yoshizaki River, and then—

As before, focus your efforts and sprint forward;

It wasn't frightened by the bracelet; instead, it instinctively carried out the command, even if crashing into it would lead to destruction.

As far as rules are concerned, only another rule can prevent its intrusion.

Yoshizaki Kawa stared intently at it, his right hand, bound with a bracelet, braced itself against the back of the flower bed with his left hand, ready to deliver a punch as soon as the guy got close!
