"Hook."

"Pinky promise, for a hundred years, no take-backs!"

"Ten thousand years! It must not change!"

She said angrily, then grabbed Yoshizaki Kawa's hand and forcibly completed the ceremony.

Kayako, you can't say that! Brother, I don't want to be dragged up to dance on your grave.

Upon hearing about Kayako's ten thousand years, Yoshizaki Kawa subconsciously thought of the little boy in Ju-on and Saeki Takeo, who even after death, wanted to take flight.

However, seeing the smiling face on the other side, he didn't say much and could only take it as a joke.

At this moment, the car stopped;

Yoshizaki looked at Kayako, who was dressed in very thin clothes, and told her to put her clothes on.

"Isn't the teacher cold? I'm not cold."

She seemed to have reverted to her previous self, Kayako, and asked with concern.

"Don't worry, I'm wearing thermal underwear underneath. You can hold my hand if you don't believe me."

Kayako hesitated for a moment, then carefully took Yoshizaki Kawa's hand. Only after feeling the warmth did she put on her clothes with some doubt.

Because the trench coat was so big, and Kayako herself was so petite, the coat was practically a dress on her, with the hem reaching her knees and her hands tucked into her sleeves, making her look like a child.

Her face was a little red; I wondered if it was from the cold.

"I was rude in the car earlier, Red Bean Paste, private Marseille!"

At this moment, the policeman who had laughed earlier bowed sincerely and apologized. Yoshizaki Kawa knew that he hadn't done it on purpose, so he didn't say anything more.

He took Kayako's cold little hand and led her into the police station.

……

After discussing with them and reviewing all the agreements, we finally settled the compensation accounts. We accompanied Kayako to open a bank account before signing the papers, and they promptly transferred the money.

After checking the account details at the bank counter, Yoshizaki Kawa handed the card to Kayako and told her to keep it safe.

But at this time—

Kayako didn't even glance at the bank card, and without the slightest hesitation, she handed it to Yoshizaki Kawa: "Teacher, please keep it for me!"

"I still owe the teacher tens of thousands of yen. The teacher knows the password, so you can just go and get it."

Yoshizaki Kawa paused for a moment, looking at the latter's serious expression, and finally agreed, patting her little head: "I will keep it safe, but right now the most important thing is to get you a SIM card."

Two million yen is not a small sum in this era.

The key was this trust, which touched Yoshizaki Kawa a little.

He got Kayako a SIM card, then took her to his house, gave her the new phone, and kept his old one.

"This is my phone."

Yoshizaki Kawa specifically added his own number to the contacts list, while the latter carefully wrote down the number.

"No need to remember, just click this to call me."

Because she had never been exposed to electronic devices, Kayako was practically an electronics idiot and knew absolutely nothing about mobile phones, so Yoshizaki had to teach her.

Kayako clicked on her contacts, and seeing Yoshizaki Kawa's phone ring, she immediately perked up and drawled into the phone, "Hello~"

Because they were so close, the sound of "hello" kept accumulating, creating an electric-like accent.

She was delighted and fed the teacher a few more times, feeling that this small phone was bridging the gap between her and her teacher.

"Okay, from now on, if anything happens, remember, the first thing to do is call your teacher! Do you understand?"

Yoshizaki said in an exceptionally serious tone.

"Good~"

Hearing the teacher's unquestionable tone, she felt no rebellion, only a sense of reassurance.

Kayako wanted to be taken care of like this for the rest of her life; that was the kind of happiness she understood.

"Okay, I'll take you home first. After all, you haven't slept all night. Go home and get some rest for a day. We can deal with the rest later."

As for himself... damn it, he had classes in the afternoon. Just thinking about it gave him a headache.

"Let's just let those guys do the problems this afternoon."

Yoshizaki thought to himself lazily.

At the same time, upon hearing this, Kayako immediately and readily prepared to take off her coat, since it was her teacher's jacket. However, Yoshizaki Kawa stopped her, saying, "It's alright, you can bring it next time you have time. It's easy to catch a cold from the sudden change in temperature, and with the changing seasons these days, colds are not easy to cure."

Upon hearing this, she nodded obediently, clutching the buttons on her trench coat tightly and shrinking herself inside.

They led Kayako to her house's courtyard.

Push open the door;

The next moment, both Yoshizaki Kawa and Kayako were stunned;

Because, at this moment, several workers in the courtyard are hoisting a window, preparing to install it on the third floor;

Furthermore, some areas have been repainted and renovated.

Yoshizaki and Kayako exchanged a glance, then Yoshizaki turned to the workers in front of him and demanded, "Who hired you? Why are you working here?"

He had a vague feeling that something was wrong. In the original story, Kayako always lived in a rented house, but in this world, this was Kayako's home.

So something must have happened here.

"you are?"

At this moment, the foreman walked over and respectfully inquired;

"She is the owner of this house, and I am her teacher. May I ask who authorized you to carry out construction here?"

Yoshizaki emphasized and repeated it again.

Hearing the man's somewhat unfriendly words, the foreman pulled out a photocopy of the contract from his pocket.

“This place has been bought by Mr. Saeki Momotaro. He asked us to come here to carry out the construction. This is a contract signed with Mr. Kawamata Yoshida and Ms. Nakagawa Kawamatsu. It cost a total of 25 million yen to buy the properties under their names in this area.”

"Mr. Momotaro mentioned before that there are still people inside, so please move your belongings out of the house within three days, otherwise we will have to deal with them."

Chapter 49 Momotaro Saeki

"..."

Even the well-informed Yoshizaki was momentarily speechless at this remark, unsure of what to say.

That couple really deserved to die!

He never imagined they would go to such extremes, selling off all the properties without even considering Kayako's feelings.

Recalling the car accident that happened when they went out in the middle of the night, an absurd truth popped into Yoshizaki's mind;

Because they "saw" the demon, they sold the house as quickly as possible, intending to run away with the money. However, they were found by the demon halfway there and died a violent death.

But in reality, as long as they don't leave the house, nothing will happen to them because of Kayako's presence.

Even because they had spent a lot of time with Kayako and had been tainted by her aura, the Po-Xiong Demon dared not harm them, even when they went out briefly.

But they chose to leave this place and run away when Kayako was weak.

So we had to give up halfway there.

That's truly courting death—

Thinking of this, Yoshizaki couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

This also explains why Kayako had to pay rent to Takeo Saeki in the movie.

Because her parents sold the house to Saeki's father, Momotaro!

It was precisely because of this that Kayako was able to afford her parents' funeral and continue her studies after receiving the money and compensation from her parents.

During the funeral, Takeo Saeki saw Kayako and confessed his feelings to her while collecting rent, thus winning her heart.

Everything made sense now. A flurry of thoughts flashed through his mind. Yoshizaki glanced at Kayako, who stood beside him clenching her fists and looking somewhat nervous, and then asked, regaining his composure:

"Could you please introduce me to Mr. Saeki Momotaro, who has purchased the property?"

"Of course you can."

Hearing Yoshizaki's words, the foreman breathed a sigh of relief. He was just an employee who got paid, so he simply read out the rules of the agreement. That way, even if Mr. Momotaro came to investigate, he could say that he had done his best.

It's impossible to take this small amount of money and fight someone head-on, since this would only cause trouble and bring no benefit whatsoever.

So, taking advantage of Yoshizaki River's position, his tone immediately softened:

"Please wait a moment while I call Mr. Momotaro."

He first stopped the workers, then went to the side to make a phone call.

The workers who had stopped were happy to take a break, sitting in the entryway or on the shelves, looking at Yoshizaki and the other two below with some curiosity.

At the same time, after finishing the phone call, he walked up to Yoshizaki Kawa and said sincerely:
