Tokyo: I was tricked into marrying a yandere ghost

The saying "money makes the world go round" is no joke.

The Thai sorcerer and the two Aum Shinrikyo followers who appeared tonight have both confirmed that ordinary people can also wield the power of supernatural tales. In that case... the world is so big, Kawakami Tomie doesn't believe she can't find others to help.

As long as these people are alive, they must need to spend money, right?

If you need to spend money, you definitely need to find a way to make money.

Kawakami Tomie may not have much else, but she is incredibly wealthy. The Kawakami family, who were able to buy a large number of properties in some of the most prosperous commercial districts in Japan in later generations, had so much money that they could not spend it all in this life, the next life, and the life after that. And all of this money has now been inherited by Kawakami Tomie.

You should know that this is a considerable sum of money.

The reason Aum Shinrikyo lured her mother into the cult was partly because they were interested in Tomie Kawakami's abilities, and partly because they wanted the money. Unfortunately, the plan failed because it was too complicated to carry out.

They originally intended to brainwash the mother and daughter so that they could keep all the money in their hands without feeling guilty.

Unfortunately, Kawakami Tomie didn't fall for it...

Now, the money has a better use.

"I previously joined an online enthusiast group to learn about psychic abilities. Do you know what the internet is?" Tomie Kawakami explained simply.

I know that all too well...

Kiyokawa Mist secretly thought to himself that probably no one in the world understood the internet better than him.

In his previous life, he was also a teenager addicted to the internet and played computer games quite a bit.

In 1991, Japan already had the internet and computers, but their development was not particularly advanced. Computers at that time were very expensive, costing hundreds of thousands of yen each, and their performance was terrible, with very slow internet speeds.

Even so, computers in this era could still connect to the internet and had things like forums.

Kiyokawa Kiri was quite surprised that Kawakami Tomie had learned about "ghost stories" in this way before. It really broadened his horizons. She truly deserves to be called a rich woman.

That said, aren't these people afraid of being discovered by malicious individuals for discussing "ghost stories" online?

I guess the times are still too limited, and not many people know about it right now...

"So you're planning to find some people online who can provide freelance work?" Kiyokawa Kiri stroked her chin, somewhat suspicious. "Are you sure that will really work?"

"Why don't you try and see?"

Tomie Kawakami chuckled lightly and said nonchalantly, "This amount of money is nothing to me."

"There will always be people who need money and are willing to help us," she added.

Seeing that the other party had put it this way, Kiyokawa Kiri had no choice but to agree.

Of course, finding helpers is a good thing, as it increases the chances of winning. As for whether they are reliable or not, we'll have to wait until Tomie Kawakami finds them. In short, Aum Shinrikyo will definitely find a way to eliminate them.

Considering that the other party had made the first move, the two discussed it again and felt that time was tight.

So Kawakami Tomie decisively returned to her study, intending to go to the forum right now and tentatively post two "employment" threads.

She didn't directly state her purpose, but vaguely indicated that she had recently encountered some minor troubles, feeling as if she had encountered a ghost, and wanted to find someone to help her solve the problem. The fee was negotiable, but there was a starting price—the outrageously wealthy Miss Tomie directly filled in ten million yen.

Kiyokawa Kirito felt a chill run down his spine just from watching from the sidelines.

So scary, Tomie Kawakami.

He now feels that the other party's financial resources might be even more frightening than their ability to tell ghost stories.

That's ten million yen in the 1990s... It's a good thing it was the 1990s, otherwise, with such a high price, anyone would know that this young lady was planning to hire someone to kill her, and they would probably call the police immediately.

"Don't worry, people who can access the internet are either quite capable or have a certain status."

"No one would be so bored as to report me here."

Tomie Kawakami smiled charmingly, seemingly confident.

It's easy to see that she has extremely high confidence in the entrustment she has made.

Seeing this, Kiyokawa Kiri had no choice but to accept it with some skepticism.

......

......

A detached house in a remote town in Adachi Ward, Tokyo.

The room lights were off, only the huge computer emitted a faint glow, illuminating the middle school boy sitting at the table, crunching on a nail, his feet on the chair, humming an unknown lullaby.

"Hmm, hmm..."

Just as he was getting engrossed in the wonders of the online world, the forum that had opened on the page refreshed automatically.

Then a new post appeared, with its title highlighted in red, making it very eye-catching. He clicked on it almost without thinking and then saw the content of the post. When he saw that the starting price was ten million yen, he was stunned for a moment and even forgot to chew the nail in his mouth.

Hey, hey, hey, you're not kidding, are you?

That's ten million yen!

His breathing became a little rapid, and he couldn't take his eyes off the post.

The allure of ten million yen is simply too great. You have to understand that although Japan is destined to have no economic growth for thirty years, prices in Japan have risen ridiculously high. In fact, prices are relatively reasonable nowadays.

The purchasing power of ten million yen is simply irresistible.

The middle school boy never expected that he would encounter such a good thing just by casually browsing forums online...

"Ten million yen, I wonder what kind of trouble this person has run into."

He continued chewing on the nail, his expression gradually becoming conflicted.

He really wanted that ten million yen. With that money, he could move to a new house with his "wife" and stop living in this cramped place. He might even have the chance to take his "wife" on a trip to another city.

But earning ten million yen isn't easy.

The junior high school boy remembered the poster's nickname and recalled that the person had asked him about "psychic abilities" many times.

Since the other party was willing to offer such a price, it meant they were in serious trouble, so he had to think carefully. He was actually a bit of a coward... Although he wanted to make money, he didn't want to risk his life.

Fortunately, it seems that this little guy has never been in charge of this family.

Just as he was still struggling with his decision, the door creaked open.

A woman with an incredibly tall stature and an extremely ugly face came out carrying dinner.

Her voice was sinister and eerie, as if her vocal cords were damaged, and she could only manage an extremely hoarse hissing sound as she spoke:

"Honey, it's time for dinner... What are you looking at?"
