Tokyo: I was tricked into marrying a yandere ghost

If we ignore the fact that Kawakami Tomie was completely naked, dinner was undoubtedly a success.

Concussion is truly a mysterious condition. People may lose their memory, but they will not forget their own name, and they will also find it difficult to forget the skills they have mastered, such as swimming or cooking, as if they are engraved in their body's instincts.

Seeing that Kawakami Tomie was clearly happy, Kiyokawa Kiri collected the dishes and threw them into the kitchen sink, intending to let the girl wash them herself.

Are you kidding me? You cook for yourself and then you have to wash the dishes?

"It's about time we set off. It's already dark, and the workers have probably all gone home by now."

"What's the rush..." Kawakami Tomie rubbed her stomach, elegantly sipped her barley tea, then rolled her eyes and said, "Are you in such a hurry to cause trouble for yourself?"

"It's troublesome if you don't find out the truth about my amnesia," Kiyokawa Kiri retorted irritably.

Although he has remembered most of the things, it is still a question why he was near the Kawakami family before he lost his memory. The most important question is why he suffered brain damage.

Kiyokawa Kirito will find it hard to relax until this matter is clarified.

Seemingly sensing her boyfriend's impatience, Tomie Kawakami gave a barely perceptible snort.

However, considering the other party's behavior tonight, she unusually refrained from saying anything more and lazily got up and went back to her room.

A little while later, Kawakami Tomie changed her clothes and came out of the room. Kiyokawa Kiri was already waiting for her in the entryway, having changed her shoes.

Although I was already aware of her charm, all I had seen before was her school uniform.

But tonight is clearly different...

Tomie Kawakami changed into a casual outfit that she hadn't seen before. She wore a black cropped top with an irregular crisscross tie at the neckline, and a matching short skirt and black tights that accentuated her slender and beautiful legs. A thin white ribbon was tied around her waist as an embellishment.

The stark contrast of black and white creates a clean and crisp look with a touch of girlish charm, making Tomie Kawakami appear both aloof and delicate.

That was absolutely killer...

Kiyokawa Kiri couldn't help but watch for a while longer, thinking to herself that, putting everything else aside, Kawakami Tomie was indeed beautiful.

If we set aside the supernatural and ghost story setting and could actually fall in love with the other person, that would be pretty good.

"Getting impatient? I just changed my clothes..."

Seemingly noticing that Kiyokawa Kiri's gaze lingered a little longer, Kawakami Tomie revealed a playful smile.

She lifted her pleated skirt and turned around gently, then said with a smile, "Or is it that the innocent Kiyokawa-kun is captivated by my charming casual attire and is experiencing a moment of supreme happiness?"

If only this guy weren't so narcissistic.

However, putting aside these witty remarks, Kiyokawa Kirito admits that he was indeed captivated by what he saw.

"Alright, let's set off. It's not far from here, is it?" he said with a light cough.

"Don't worry, it's nearby, or more precisely, right next to the subway station that's being built next door."

Tomie Kawakami smiled smugly.

She casually took out a small yellow and black women's handbag, then took Kiyokawa Mist out the door and headed to the subway not far from her home.

It wasn't far at all; it only took me less than five minutes to walk there...

The reconstruction of Roppongi Hills could not officially begin until 1998, and the subway near Kawakami's house was not the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line, but the Toei Subway Oedo Line.

This subway line is said to have been developed in sync with the new town's development, achieving a seamless underground connection.

In other words, the Toei Subway Oedo Line is actually already in the process of being prepared for construction.

However, due to the impact of the bubble economy in recent years, the Oedo Line, which should have been completed much earlier, could not be officially restarted until the late 1990s or even the early 2000s - so the current Oedo Line is just a "subway embryo".

Tomie Kawakami brought Kiyokawa Kiri to the vicinity.

As she explained about the Toei Oedo Line, she pointed to an open space not far away and said succinctly:

"This is it, less than 500 meters from the subway exit. This was supposed to be another exit, but it's not finished yet..."

"So spacious?" Kiyokawa Kiri frowned, looking around.

This isn't just a matter of whether it's empty or not; there's absolutely no sign of life around here.

It should be noted that the new city has not even officially started construction yet, and the number of people living in this area is probably less than two times.

The area around the subway is even worse. Many houses are now deserted and completely dark, showing no signs of life whatsoever. Only two rows of streetlights stand eerily neatly at either end of the straight avenue.

The reason it's considered eerie is because the streetlights seem to be spaced too close together.

Moreover, this road is so long that you can't see the end of it in the distance.

Kiyokawa Kiri wandered around the area for a while, trying to recall any details.

But no matter how long he wandered around, he couldn't remember anything, and he became more and more confused.

"Are you sure you found me here?"

"Absolutely, definitely, and without a doubt..." Kawakami Tomie said lazily, arms crossed, "My dear boyfriend collapsed not far from home, and I was worried sick. How could I be wrong?"

"There's nothing I can do about it. I can't remember anything at all," Kiyokawa Kiri sighed.

The problem has returned to its most pressing issue: he has absolutely no recollection of ever being there.

Kawakami Tomie kept saying, "They're dating, that's why I'm here," but Kiyokawa Kiri knew that the two of them definitely hadn't been dating before, so she must have some other purpose for being here.

But when he was cleaning his house yesterday, he had already noticed some clues that seemed like leads.

Even though I'm standing here today, I haven't gained anything.

As for whether Kawakami Tomie was lying to him...

While Kiyokawa Kiri didn't rule out the possibility, she felt it wasn't very likely.

"No clues, right?" Kawakami Tomie seemed a little tired from playing. She yawned casually, then said lazily, "There's another way, do you want to try it?"

"What method?"

Have you ever heard of a paranormal game called "Crossroads Spirit Summoning"?

Seeing that Kiyokawa Kiri had finally taken the bait, Kawakami Tomie revealed a malicious smile: "Didn't you notice the surrounding environment...?"

After she finished speaking, she pointed to the exaggeratedly long road not far away.

Kiyokawa looked in the direction the other person was pointing, and when he realized the surrounding environment, he finally understood.

No wonder I found these two rows of streetlights so eerie.

The two of them were standing right next to that straight avenue.

Ahead of the main road is a huge crossroads, with streetlights standing in opposition and close together at both ends of the road.

So that's how the crossroads ritual for summoning spirits works...
