How to raise a random guy's wife

Clinging to Kobayashi Sora's shoulder, Kato Megumi peeked out before shrinking back.

"Are you scared?" Kobayashi Sora tilted her head.

"It's not that bad..." Kato Megumi thought for a moment, "It's a little disgusting."

It's obviously a prop, but it's made so realistically that even though I know it's fake, it still feels disgusting.

Kobayashi Sora covered the white cloth with the seal. "Alright, let's go find the next seal."

"What is it..." Eriri muttered, "It's just so-so."

"Ah..." Kobayashi Sora opened her mouth.

Saying things like that...

“In that case,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile, “you can try it next time.”

"Wh...what?"

"Let's get the stamp," Kasumigaoka Utaha reminded her. "Everyone's stamp can't be the same, so you can do it next time."

"I......"

"Are you afraid?"

"You're the one who's scared!" Eriri snapped. "You're next!"

“Okay,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said calmly, “If you can do it, I’ll be next.”

"Come on...come on, come on!"

Xiao Lin Kong Qing: "..."

Humans always repeat the same mistakes.

"No!" Eriri suddenly realized, "Why should I go first and you go first? If you can do it, I can do it too."

"..." Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Are you scared?" Eriri asked, hands on her hips, as she approached Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"Heh." Kasumigaoka Utaha smirked. "Watch closely."

She strode out of the room, the others following behind her as they continued their exploration.

To beat around the bush, to be roundabout and circuitous.

Soon, Kasumigaoka Utaha noticed the anomaly.

An unpleasant coughing sound came from within, dry and hoarse, as if the person was coughing up withered lungs.

Kasumigaoka Utaha swallowed hard.

According to Kobayashi Sora, the more frightening a place is, the more likely it is to have a seal.

Kasumigaoka Utaha followed the sound and approached, only to find herself in a dimly lit operating room.

creak-

With a sickeningly loud sound, the operating room door slowly opened.

A nurse, her face wrapped in what looked like a shroud, wearing a dirty, blood-stained nurse's uniform, slowly walked out and staggered away.

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't move forward again until the nurse pushed open another door and left.

On the operating table in the operating room lay a mangled, bloody body.

The seal of the haunted house is right next to the man's lipsless mouth.

“Go…go,” Eriri urged in a trembling voice. “The seal is right there.”

"Look carefully." After confirming that the person on the operating table was not a living person, Kasumigaoka Utaha strode over decisively and stamped the document.

With a sigh of relief, Kasumigaoka Utaha turned around and showed the notebook that had been stamped. "Now it's your turn."

Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled as she walked out, but as soon as she stepped outside, she noticed something out of the corner of her eye.

Behind the opened operating room door, the nurse who had left earlier had returned sometime earlier.

Part of the shroud covering her face had been removed, revealing rotting skin covered in pustules, and dark eyes staring intently at her through the window in the door.

Kasumigaoka Utaha stiffened, meeting the other person's gaze with icy eyes.

It's not that I don't want to shout.

forget.

This tactic of taking advantage of people's relaxation and then returning is simply too much.

However, it must be said that Kasumigaoka Utaha's death stare, honed through years of arguing, is still quite lethal.

Unable to bear her cold gaze, the nurse turned and left.

Her body went limp, and Kasumigaoka Utaha staggered for a moment before managing to steady herself.

No, I must pull myself together at a time like this and not show weakness.

After gently biting her tongue, Kasumigaoka Utaha finally calmed down completely, turned to Eriri and smiled, "Eriri, that nurse seemed to be older than you."

Eriri grinded her little white teeth, "Mind your own business!"

Ok.

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded in satisfaction.

I relaxed immediately.

All that's left is to enjoy Eriri's trembling and fearful appearance.

"You'll be leading the way from now on," Kasumigaoka Utaha reminded her. "This place is quite big, so be careful not to get lost."

These haunted houses, which allow for free exploration, are similar to mazes.

Eriri was furious at that tone, which sounded like she was coaxing a child.

Clutching a flashlight, Eriri mustered her courage and walked at the front.

Suddenly, she stopped and turned to stare at Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Chapter 197 Can't I?

"Hmm?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You're not allowed to do anything behind my back!" Eriri declared solemnly, her face serious.

As she walked ahead, she suddenly felt a strong sense of unease.

The source of this unease is the restless Kasumigaoka Utaha behind him.

“Absolutely not,” Eriri reiterated. “Do you understand?”

“You reminded me,” Kasumigaoka Utaha raised an eyebrow. “I hadn’t thought of this before, but now…”

"You gloomy woman..." Eriri gritted her teeth, then suddenly noticed the two people behind her who were commenting on the handwriting on the wall. "Kōshō, Megumi, keep an eye on her!"

“Okay.” Kobayashi Sora agreed casually. “Well, you didn’t scare me just now, so I won’t scare you either.”

"Huh?" Kasumigaoka Utaha pointed to herself, her smile enigmatic. "Can't I do it?"

Yinglili: "..."

There's no use worrying. Just find the stamp quickly, get it stamped, and leave as soon as possible.

Practice makes perfect, and Eriri learned from her experience.

Hearing faint cries, they headed in the direction of the sound.

Although her steps were firm, it was obvious from behind that Eriri's twin tails were excessively lively, and the beam of her flashlight was also trembling.

Eriri quickly found her target.

In a place resembling a washbasin, the stamp was in the sink, near the writhing, blood-red fleshy ball.

The crying also came from inside the ball of flesh.

Eriri approached the sink, and her reflection in the mirror showed her pale face with blonde twin ponytails, biting her lower lip and looking pitiful.

This must be some kind of gadget... Eriri stared at the strange, whimpering ball of flesh, carefully picked up the stamp, and stamped it on the notebook.

What? Isn't this simple?

Eriri looked up and gave her reflection in the mirror, her black hair flowing smoothly, a confident smile... Huh?

Eriri's expression froze.

The moment I looked up, a pale, bloodless face was right in front of me, a radiant smile on that face, and bright red liquid spilled from between its teeth.

"Ah—!!!" Eriri screamed at a high decibel, startling both the human and the ghost.

The staff dressed as ghosts were subjected to sonic attacks at close range, making their faces even more distorted and terrifying.

Eriri threw down the stamp and ran away.

Kato Megumi was startled by Eriri and immediately threw herself into Kobayashi Sora's arms.

Seeing Eriri rush into the darkness alone without even a flashlight, Kasumigaoka Utaha quickly grabbed a flashlight and chased after her.

"It's alright, it's alright." Kobayashi Sora gently patted Kato Megumi's back, comforting her softly, while glancing in the direction of the female ghost and seeing the mirror rise silently.

This is a simple little mechanism: when tourists bend down to get their stamps, the mirror will lower, revealing the staff behind it.

Tourists' attention is drawn to the fleshy ball, and when they look up after getting their stamps, they see a pale-faced female ghost.

The mechanism is simple, yet it demonstrates a precise understanding of tourists' psychology.

And judging from Eriri's reaction... it's quite effective.

When Kato Megumi looked up with lingering fear, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri were no longer there.

"they......?"

“They’ve gone too far.” Kobayashi Sora took Kato Megumi’s small hand. “Let’s go and meet up with them.”

“…Mmm.” Kato Megumi answered softly, pressing her soft body closer.

Actually, she hadn't seen it clearly either, but just like Kobayashi Sora said before, teammates are the scariest.
