Damn! I'm surrounded by beautiful women's ghost stories

When did this house start to be haunted? No wonder my wife and daughter reacted so strangely, but... I have no memory of it.

When the talisman fell on Yusuke and the flames burned, he finally remembered.

"Oh, now I remember, it was around that time."

He remarried with a woman who had a daughter and lived a happy marriage. He gave all his earnings to his wife for safekeeping. Until one day, he promised to lend some money to his childhood playmate. When he returned home, he found that the money was gone. When he questioned his wife, she refused to say anything and even threatened to divorce him.

Yusuke began to investigate and slowly found clues. It turned out that his wife had given all her savings to her ex-husband.

What made him even more devastated was that he was nice enough to his stepdaughter, but that little bitch often deceived him and created opportunities for her biological parents to have trysts, right in the place where he used to sleep soundly.

No wonder every once in a while, my stepdaughter, who is obviously not close to me, would suddenly pester me to go out shopping and stay out for a long time before coming back.

He is still an elementary school student, but he acts like a devil.

Yusuke, who suffered a mental breakdown, chose to kill the damn sows and chop off their heads.

Then he hanged himself in the room.

"Ah, that's the time."

This time he really remembered that he was already dead, and the people in front of him were not his wife and daughter.

He kept harassing them.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say sorry, but in the end no sound came out. It would be better for him to just disappear like this.

I really have to thank this man for letting me end it. Yusuke looked at the young man, but found that he was looking at him with a frown, as if he was confused about something.

What's there to be confused about?

Forget it, I'm going to disappear anyway.

Chapter 42: Bad luck! Bad luck! Bad luck~!

"Thank you very much!"

"If I have similar needs in the future, I will still contact you as soon as possible!"

As the mother and daughter bowed to each other, Natsuki and Hojo Rinko left together.

Hojo Rinko followed Natsuki and asked curiously, "Why can we all see him? Is there something special about Friday?"

“Nothing special on Friday”

What’s special is that the map of the haunted house will be opened today, and it is actually called [Cursed House]. However, unlike the current cursed haunted house, this one is only the lowest level F, and the strength of the vengeful spirits inside is too weak.

Only one soul jade was found in the box.

If we put all this aside, that man might have the potential to become the Grudge.

He looked through the information on his phone.

Yusuke Okawa is a loyal office worker who works diligently in the company but is emotionally weak. He is a typical good guy and an honest man.

He was betrayed innocently and then murdered by his second-married wife and daughter. Their body was hidden under the floor for half a month.

However, the most bizarre thing is not this, but that half a month after his death, his wife and daughter's heads were suddenly chopped off. The identity of the perpetrator is unknown and no such person can be found.

"If his resentment was too strong, it turned into a curse, and then he killed his wife and daughter for revenge, then that makes sense."

Natsuki thought of the smiling man that Toshio had drawn. Assuming that the other party wanted to create the grudge, then... could he succeed in one try, or did he have to experiment countless times before he succeeded recently.

But compared to these, Xia Shu is now feeling pained because his fees are still too low.

Pinch your thigh quietly.

How can you only accept 50 for saving your life? You need to reflect on this!

Don’t be so lenient next time!

He looked at Hojo Rinko: "You don't have to go to school today?"

"Take a break," said Hojo Rinko. "Because a big incident happened suddenly, more than a hundred students got food poisoning, and the school was forced to suspend classes."

She bared her fangs and clenched her fists: "That's why I have the opportunity to find a spiritual spot!"

Xia Shu glanced at his phone. It was still early. "What strange story have you found out?"

Ever since learning about her experience, Natsuki's impression of Hojo Rinko has changed. He no longer thinks that she is a JK who seeks death for excitement, but he is sure that she is a JK who seeks death on purpose.

If the monster I have to face is the folk legend Shiranui, I may not be able to defeat it.

"Because there aren't any, that's why we have to look for them!" She picked up her phone and showed it to Xia Shu. "There's a psychic club where people talk about the supernatural events they encounter. There just so happens to be three near Sumida District. Shall we go take a look?"

Although she saw that kind of thing with her own eyes for the second time following Natsuki, Hojo Rinko did not find it very exciting. Perhaps it was because the other party was dealt with too easily.

The first is an abandoned tunnel where you can hear the echo of footsteps.

But when I got there I found that this place had been filled in due to construction.

The second is an old telephone booth where strange incidents frequently occur.

Still nothing.

"Put a coin in, and there will be a miserable girl screaming and crying over there," said Hojo Rinko as she dialed the number.

Xia Shu, who was standing outside the phone booth, took out his phone and answered the call with a helpless look on his face: "Why are you calling me?"

"This is the fastest way to verify!" Hojo Rinko put down the phone and walked out, saying with regret, "It seems that there is only one left, and it is not far from here, about 500 meters away."

"What's the third one?"

"Patta, pat," said Hojo Rinko, "It should be considered a very famous type in urban legends. A woman accidentally falls on the track and is crushed in half by a train. She can only crawl on the ground with her hands. If you are walking on the road late at night and suddenly hear a "pat, pat" sound similar to the sound of the spine hitting the ground, don't look back. If you see her, you will be killed."

"Lost both legs?" Xia Shu said disappointedly.

Hojo Rinko looked at him in confusion: "What's wrong with you? Do you seem to have some sympathy?"

"Maybe I lost my legs in a car accident in my previous life."

Looking at Hojo Rinko who was stunned for the first time, Xia Shu stretched out his hand in front of her and snapped his fingers: "Let's go, it's time to go over and take a look."

Just on the way.

Stopping in front of the track, Xia Shu still didn't notice anything. Maybe it would only be useful to come at night. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a brightly colored head.

It seemed like the woman who fell flat on the ground that I saw in Ginza.

Just as I thought of this, the other person fell to the ground: "Ah! Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck!"

Seeing the other person's gaze coming over, Xia Shu quickly turned his head and looked away.

"You! Wait!" The other party got up skillfully and wanted to jog after her, but after thinking it over, she chose to walk slowly towards her. It was clearly a flat ground, but she felt like she was walking on a tightrope.

Before Natsuki could answer, Hojo Rinko was already excited: "You are Furudera Aya! I've seen your demon-slaying videos."

"Hey, fans?"

"Are you here to investigate ghost stories?"

"Yes, because I was thinking about the latest video." Gu Sicai nodded: "So I came here to look for it, but it seems that it has been entangled with someone else, so there are only very faint traces left here."

She lowered her head and looked at the ground.

"Entangled?" Xia Shu couldn't help but interrupt: "Can you see it?"

At most, I can use [Cursed Ears] to hear the sounds of things in the real world, but I can't see them at all.

It's not wrong to say that I have no psychic talent at all, I'm just a pure tool master.

"Of course!" Gu Sicai pointed to her own eyes, her purple colored contact lenses flickering in the sun: "Specially made spiritual vision contact lenses, can see some traces."

Her eyes suddenly turned and stopped at Xia Shu's shoulder: "You... seem to be entangled by something more terrifying."

Xia Shu subconsciously moved his shoulders. Ever since he acquired his own curse, shoulder pain has become a common occurrence. However, it can be relieved by moving the shoulders, massaging, etc., so it is not too painful and is within an acceptable range.

"I also know how to exorcise demons," Xia Shu said, "so I might get a little on me occasionally."

"Really?" Gu Sicai nodded in disbelief: "But it's very dangerous to get entangled with that kind of thing. Contact me anytime if you need help."

They didn't talk much, just Hojo Rinko exchanged contact information with the other party and waved goodbye.

"Next time we have an appointment, I can go to participate in her supernatural show!" Hojo Rinko was very excited. Anything related to urban legends would arouse her strong interest.

Xia Shu looked in the direction of Gu Sicai and said thoughtfully: "I think it's better for you to stay away from her."

"Did you sense any evil aura from her?"

Xia Shu put his hands in his pockets, turned around and said, "I just think that if someone walks so hard that he falls on the ground, it will be bad luck to approach her casually."

In the distance, Gu Sicai's screams were heard. As expected, she fell flat on the ground again: "Ouch! Bad luck! Bad luck! Bad luck~!"

Hojo Rinko silently withdrew her gaze and nodded in agreement: "That's true."

Chapter 43: The Purchasing Power of Soul Jade

On the way back, when chatting with Hojo Rinko, Natsuki asked about Shengyan again. It allowed him to kill everyone in the map, and ordinary ghosts would die at the touch of a button. It was very useful.

“Actually, this is a weird story.”

Hojo Rinko pursed her lips. Every time at this moment she couldn't suppress the excitement in her eyes.

"I heard it from my classmates. It is said that if you suddenly hear the sound of a slapping tree when you walk to the intersection, close your eyes and turn around and walk in the direction of the sound, you will see a shrine called Kamikakushi Shrine. I got the salt there." She paused and said, "But this is a strange story that cannot be mentioned. If you tell others, you will never see the shrine again. People who hear this legend will be able to see the shrine."

The two parted at the intersection, and Hojo Rinko raised her cell phone towards Natsuki, indicating that they could contact each other through the phone.

If there were no ghost stories, their connection wouldn't actually be that close. After all, one is an adult with a daily job, while the other is a high school student, and they live in completely different circles.

On his way back to the office, Xia Shu picked up a newly printed business card and bought a drink at a convenience store.

He stopped at the intersection, raised his hand to gently rub his sore shoulders, then unscrewed the cap of the drink and took a sip.

"Ta~"

The sound of castanets came from behind.

Similar voices often appear in TV dramas, with one night someone shouting "It's dry, be careful with fire" and patrolling the streets to tell the time.

When he thought about it carefully, the wooden beater seemed to be the thing used by Japanese night watchmen.

So I also encountered the strange story that Hojo Rinko mentioned?

Maybe it was a prank by Hojo Rinko, but it felt wrong because Hojo Rinko was taking another route and everyone was going in completely opposite directions.

"Ta~"

The knocking sound came from behind again.
