I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

But the main theme of "Little Days Ghost" is illogical and random killing.

He went to the kitchen, which was still reasonably clean because it had been tidied up earlier.

Of course, neither the original owner nor I are very good at cooking. However, the original owner always keeps a lot of instant noodles at home, so cooking is not a problem for me.

After all, even if I can't cook, making instant noodles is a piece of cake, right?

Even among Showa-era slackers, those who couldn't even make instant noodles were relatively rare.

Wash the Yukihira pot with clean water, then place it on the stove and turn on the gas valve; a flame appears.

This type of Yukihira pot has a flat bottom and a small capacity, so it conducts heat very quickly, and only a few bubbles will rise slightly inside the pot after a short while.

At the same time, Yoshizaki took out two boxes of instant noodles, tore open the packaging, and revealed the simple contents inside—a packet of sauce, a packet of seaweed mixed with something that looked like dried seafood.

Just as Yoshizaki Kawakawa was about to pour the sauce into the bag after tearing it open, he suddenly felt a tug on his sleeve. He stopped what he was doing and looked at Kayako, who was standing behind him looking rather timid: "What's wrong?"

"that……"

She said timidly, "Um, teacher... I, I can cook, can I try?"

Teacher's actions are outrageous. It's hard to imagine how greasy the noodles would become after that sauce was boiled in a pot. And if the dried fish is only soaked, it won't be cooked. Did you eat it like this before?

"Ah this——"

Yoshizaki Kawa started scratching his head, wondering if his Chinese-style approach was wrong.

He felt he was invincible!

However, Yoshizaki naturally agreed to Kayako's request, since the fact that she could make such an independent request showed that her personality was returning to normal.

Hmph, even if the food later is awful, I still have to praise Kayako!

Presumably, if I do this, I can soon make this future great evil spirit feel the beauty of truth, goodness, and beauty, and save the humans she has killed.

Thinking of this, Yoshizaki suddenly felt that his mission was sacred and great. After all, if he could influence this person, he would have saved at least hundreds of people. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, so he would have built at least a pagoda of several hundred stories!

He clenched his fist, his gaze resolute:

"Kayako-san! I'll leave it to you then!"

"..."

To be honest, Kayako thought the teacher was going to attack her again, and was still wondering whether she should dodge when she heard the teacher earnestly begging her with those "energetic" words.

but--

It's just cooking a meal, isn't it?

She couldn't quite understand her teacher. Of course, seeing the teacher's high expectations made her a little uneasy. What if she didn't cook well and made the teacher dislike her?

Thinking of this, Kayako tensed up. This kind of thing... absolutely not!!

So—just when it came to instant noodles, the two of them were on high alert.

After a while, Yoshizaki smelled the aroma of seafood. Upon closer inspection, he saw that Kayako, despite her stiff movements, was making a miso soup with dried seafood and miso while making instant noodles.

Kaya poured the broth over the noodles. Vegetable leaves floated in the bowl, glistening with a rich layer of oil, and a few dried shrimp floated on top. Very good, this is a perfect instant noodle dish!

Yoshizaki looked at the instant noodles that Kayako was holding with both hands, her expression lacking confidence, and fell into deep thought. Maybe... it looks pretty good?

He helped bring out the miso soup from the kitchen and put it on the table. Curious about how it tasted, he took a small bite and his eyes lit up instantly. It was just instant noodles, but he didn't expect it to be so delicious.

"Kayako's cooking is pretty good!"

Upon hearing this, Kayako, who had been cautiously lowering her head to pretend to drink her soup while her gaze never left Yoshizaki Kawakami's face, immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said in a somewhat lighthearted tone:

"I...I used to cook for myself at home all the time."

Kayako had to learn to cook because her father was often away from home and her mother was often out at bars and wouldn't come back until very late.

Since she learned to cook, she has taken on most of the housework. When she comes home from school, she also has to take care of her parents who only come home occasionally.

Of course, if you are truly needed, you can do all the housework yourself.

But in that family, if you cooked, they would just eat it silently without commenting on the food or praising you even once.

Even if they deliberately don't do it, it doesn't matter to them; at most, it's just going out for a meal.

Thinking about this, she felt a little down.

It wasn't because her parents hadn't returned yet, but because she thought that even after they came back, she would still have to go back to that oppressive home.

Although the environment here is not as good as her own home, she felt recognized and cared for here.

Rather than complete disregard.

Even cursing or disliking is better than ignoring it.

"Nagaya's parents are so lucky. I wish I had a daughter like that."

Yoshizaki slurped his noodles, speaking somewhat indistinctly.

"Does the...teacher have a girlfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Kayako gripped her chopsticks tightly, and even her tone betrayed a barely perceptible tension.

"...Kayako-san, please don't sabotage me!!"

Damn it, I just said something casually, why is this guy getting all nervous again?

Hearing this, Kayako breathed a sigh of relief, took a small bite of her instant noodles, swallowed it quickly, and hurriedly said, "I, I was just curious, someone as outstanding as the teacher must have a girlfriend, right?"

There was a rumor in the class that Yoshizaki-sensei and Tomie had some kind of ambiguous relationship. I wonder if it's true or not?

Thinking about this, Kayako was a little scared that if it were true, how could she possibly win against Tomie?

She was so outstanding and beautiful that all the boys in the class were infatuated with her. Compared to her, who seemed to be shining, they felt like bugs in the corner.

excellent?

Is this referring to the original body?

Damn it, the original owner was a piece of trash and a good-for-nothing, and none of his actions could be described as "excellent".

However, when it comes to girlfriends—

According to Yoshizaki Kawa's vague recollections, he seemed to have dated someone before, but they must have broken up. It seemed to be a classmate.

Ouch, my head is starting to hurt.

The vague memories seemed to be breaking out from the depths of his mind, but they were shrouded in mist, with only scattered fragments that could not be connected. He only had the concept, but could not recall the specifics. Perhaps only by seeing that scene could he remember these memories.

Since he couldn't remember, Yoshizaki Kawa decided to stop thinking about it.

Faced with Kayako's question, he shook his head slightly: "Kayako, the teacher was a scumbag before, and did a lot of wrong things. He just realized it now. As a human being, I should be able to barely be considered a human being now, so... how could a scumbag have a girlfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Kayako was about to retort that Yoshizaki Kawa was actually quite popular in the class, but just then, there was a knock on the door;

"Yoshi... Yoshizaki-sensei, are you there?"

Chapter 7 Kayako's Mother

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Kayako froze, all her previous thoughts frozen in that moment. She lowered her head, chewed quickly in small bites, then stood up, looked at Yoshizaki Kawa, and cast a pleading look in her eyes.

She didn't want to go back, especially after hearing that drunken voice.

"teacher……"

At the same time, Yoshizaki gestured for the latter to calm down. Hearing a woman's voice outside the door that sounded somewhat drunk and was mixed with heavy breathing, and seeing Kayako's appearance, he roughly guessed who was outside and couldn't help but feel nervous.

Kayako's mother has arrived.

Facing Kayako's mother, who might be an exorcist, Yoshizaki's gaze turned solemn, but he still walked to the door, gripped the doorknob tightly, and opened it with a heavy heart.

The next moment, a drunken figure lunged at Yoshizaki Kawa.

"Grass!"

Yoshizaki cursed under his breath and quickly helped the woman in his arms to sit down in the entryway.

"Mrs. Kawamata, you are drunk."

Kayako's mother, Nakagawa Kawamatsu, and Yoshizaki Kawa, upon seeing her, also recalled this part of their memories and couldn't help but feel relieved.

Her parents were not exorcists. Her father was a Showa-era good-for-nothing who lived off his inheritance, and her mother was a regular at bars and a promiscuous socialite. They basically lived in bars.

That's why the original owner, this good-for-nothing, dared to bully Kayako. If he had any normal parents, he would never have dared to lay a hand on her.

Thinking about it, it seems this is still the Japanese version of Ju-on, but I don't know why Kayako has such a strange ability.

Nakagawa Kawamatsu shook his head, supporting himself as he stood up, a hint of allure in his eyes: "You're... Kayako's teacher? You're quite handsome. Don't call me Ms. Kawamata, my name is Nakagawa Kawamatsu!"

She was extremely unhappy that her name had been given that guy's surname.

Upon hearing this, Yoshizaki Kawa felt embarrassed and called out "Miss Kawamatsu," his gaze involuntarily drifting to Kayako to the side.

Upon seeing her mother's appearance, Kayako blushed to the roots of her ears. Standing to the side, she opened her mouth and whispered, "Mom."

Nakagawa Kawamatsu seemed to ignore this, his drunken, seductive face flushed red, his long-fingered hand grabbing Yoshizaki Kawa: "Give...give me your phone number, I, in the future...um...oh, right, I came to see you."

Only then did she remember the purpose of her visit, quickly regaining her senses. She looked at Kayako to the side, a clear look of disgust on her face.

As the child born from a night with that disgusting man, she disliked him intensely.
