"Ahem... Is everyone okay?"

Ito Jun looked around the club classroom and asked.

"How can they be alright? Sato and Mitsui were captured by Hanako! Alas! They insisted on playing with Qianxian and ended up hurting themselves."

Shikino said in a pretentious manner.

Ito Jun sneered.

He doesn't know about others, but doesn't Shikino know about it? The words that come out of this person's mouth are always biased towards herself, but she herself often seeks death. Her terrible luck and flexible moral values ​​can make others suffer for her. If something goes wrong, 90% of the time it is caused by her.

Mimi, the protagonist of Junji Ito's "Forbidden Space", is also a lucky person, but not as shameless as this guy. Given the same danger, her survival rate is definitely not as high as that of the scumbag Shikino.

"What on earth did you guys do? Not only did you open the door of the shrine, but you also played with the money fairy? Don't you know that these things are forbidden in Flower Field Hill?"

Sensei Yabe slowed down and reprimanded everyone.

"I'm sorry, teacher. Sato and Mitsui insisted on being stubborn."

Shikino skillfully passed the blame and took credit for it himself.

"As the daughter of the school chairman, how could I take the lead in violating school rules?"

"Is that right?"

Teacher Yabe looked at Shikino uncertainly. Shikino had a good image in the eyes of outsiders. Although he felt something was wrong, he did not pursue it further.

"The most important thing now is to find Mitsui and Sato!"

Shikino clenched his fists and spoke firmly.

"You're right, but can anyone tell me what happened here?"

Teacher Yabe couldn't help but nodded.

"You'll have to ask our president about this."

Tomie's voice came from the corner of the room. She was sitting steadily on the chair, looking calm and unhurried.

Shikino couldn't help but recall the past.

Just now when everyone was helping to pull Mitsui and Sato, it seemed that only Tomie was missing.

This woman has been watching the show from the side!

The corners of Shikino's mouth twisted slightly, and annoyed anger flashed in his eyes.

"Shikino, you are the president of the Paranormal Research Department. Tell me what the process is."

Teacher Yabe pointed at Shikino and spoke seriously.

"Here's the thing."

Shikino told Mr. Yabe the whole process in detail, but of course, there were some minor adaptations in the process. Shikino almost portrayed himself as an innocent person, and all the things that triggered the school rules were done by the careless members.

Koizumi, Yamashita, Kurahashi, Sawaguchi and others were stunned. Some wanted to refute, but were threatened by Shikino's eyes. Due to Shikino's status in the school, no one refuted. Tomie was too lazy to waste words with Shikino on such things.

"Hanako in the shrine? She's actually real."

Teacher Yabe frowned and looked a little anxious.

"How to do this?"

Teacher Yabe stamped his feet a few times, very distressed. He was just an ordinary person. His students were captured by monsters. He had no way to deal with it. He didn't know who to ask for help. The police? They couldn't handle such things, right?

"Isn't it simple?"

Ito Jun said with a chuckle.

"Simple? How is it simple? Can you exorcise evil spirits?"

Teacher Yabe looked at Ito Jun in surprise.

"As long as Daiko turns into light, it will be easy to destroy Hanako!"

Ito Jun looked at Mr. Yabe with sharp eyes.

"Dagu? Who is that? What are you talking about?"

Mr. Yabe, who has an ancient face, looked confused and said he couldn't understand.

"Aren't you Da Gu? I won't mistake your face,"

Ito Jun said this with conviction.

"Don't hide it. Judging from your face, you are about 25 years old this year. You just finished fighting Gatanjea. Don't waste time. Turn into light!"

"I really don't know what you are talking about, and I can't become the light in your mouth."

Teacher Yabe looked at Ito Jun helplessly. He didn't know what was going on with Ito Jun. Did he mistake him for someone else?

"I see. Have you lost the power to transform into light? I see. The only way to make Tiga appear is for Hanako to transform into Gatanjea!"

"boom!"

Shikino hit Ito Jun on the back of his head with a thick textbook, and Ito Jun's brain went blank and he fell forward.

Seto Akari supported Ito Jun in time and prevented him from hitting the ground with his head.

"What the hell are you doing? Ito, now is not the time to talk about your mental settings."

Shikino rolled his eyes and threw the textbook onto the bookshelf next to him.

She thought she was already outrageous, but she didn't expect that Ito Jun was even more outrageous than her.

But, speaking of it, why did this guy Jun Ito suddenly come to the club classroom? Wasn’t he there to investigate a suicide case?

"Um... Sorry, did I say something weird just now?"

Ito Jun stood up while holding Seto Akane's arm. He shook his head vigorously, and his confused thoughts gradually became clear.

"Ito-kun, what's wrong with you?"

Seto Akari's expression suddenly became serious. She grabbed Ito Jun's collar and pulled hard, unbuttoning Ito Jun's clothes, exposing his pale skin.

Everyone looked at Ito Jun's chest, and all of them showed astonishment on their faces. Then, their eyes turned to Ito Jun, and their expressions became complicated.

"What's going on! Ito, you haven't thought about committing suicide, have you? I only asked you to investigate suicide cases, not to commit suicide!"

Shikino touched Ito Jun's chest and screamed in surprise.

On Ito Jun's chest, red threads were sewn into the skin, and two threads crossed Ito Jun's heart. It looked like someone had cut it open with a knife and then sewed it up.

"Suicide?"

Ito Jun inexplicably repeated it, as if he was hearing it for the first time.

"It looks like a painting... the red line is too bright."

Yamashita also touched the skin on Ito Jun's chest. The bright red thread did not look like real thread, but when he touched it, he found that the red thread was not only real, but also very hard, and felt like steel wire.

"Nothing, I just had a minor surgery."

Ito Jun opened Yamashita's hand, took two steps back, and suddenly pulled Seto Akane to his side, glaring fiercely at the little boy who appeared behind Seto Akane.

The little boy with a pale face looked at Ito Jun indifferently, and then disappeared immediately when others were about to see him.

"it hurts!"

Shikino suddenly jumped up, hugged his feet and screamed, looking around with suspicion.

"Hanako's lair is probably the shrine. I will help find Mitsui and Sato... Of course, there is a possibility that we won't be able to find them. Maybe they are dead now."

Ito Jun looked at Shikino deeply. This person probably had a talent for transferring bad luck. Every time she went on an adventure, she would be safe, but other people who went with her would be at risk of death.

He deserved to be taught a lesson by Mimiko.

Seto Akari stood next to Ito Jun. She looked sideways into Ito Jun's clothes and was shocked to find that there seemed to be more than one red line for suturing the skin, and there seemed to be several red lines on Ito Jun's abdomen.

What happened to him? The red thread? Did he become connected to something terrible?

Seto Akane couldn't help but think.

"No matter what, we have to give an explanation to the principal and parents."

Mr. Yabe said with a headache.

"Principal? Come to think of it, does our school have a principal?"

Koizumi asked in confusion. He had been studying at Hanada Hill for several years, but had never seen the principal. It had always been the academic dean who was in charge of all affairs on behalf of the principal.

"That, I don't know. Now is not the time to worry about such trivial matters, Ito, are you sure?"

Mr. Yabe shook his head and asked Ito Jun.

"Don't force it. I don't want those two to fail to be rescued and for you to get trapped again."

"Don't worry, Team Dagu, they are just a bunch of little brats, there are just a lot of them."

Ito Jun smiled calmly, but he looked as if he was seriously ill, which made people feel uneasy.

Shikino looked at Ito Jun suspiciously.

This guy, when did he become so positive?

In Shikino's impression, Ito Jun has always been avoiding supernatural phenomena. Not to mention taking the initiative to go to the shrine, he would not even join the discussion when the paranormal investigation activities began.

Could it be that it’s not me?

Kurahashi Satomi and Sawaguchi Kanae sent the seriously injured Misaki to the infirmary to recuperate, and the others went to the shrine behind the school together.

Although it was still afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, but the shrine seemed to be isolated from the normal world. If you took a step forward, you would step into the shadow. There was no light here at all.

"..."

Ito Jun turned his head, as if he was talking to someone.

"You are very lucky. There is an entrance to the other world in this shrine. The so-called ghost doll Hanako may or may not exist. There are a lot of evil spirits living here, and the ghost doll Hanako you know is just one of them."

Looking back, Ito Jun briefly explained it to everyone.

After saying that, Ito Jun walked into the shrine alone.

Inside the shrine, a small coffin was placed in the center. At some point, the coffin lid that was opened by Shikino was closed again. Ito Jun opened the coffin lid and even the rag doll returned to the coffin.

"Just in time."

A bleak smile appeared on Ito Jun's face. He unbuttoned a few buttons on his chest and scratched his chest skin with his nails a few times, and actually pulled out a thread.

Ito Jun stretched the thread, and the red line seemed to be infinitely long. Ito Jun pulled out a one-meter long line, and the red line sewn on the skin of the chest did not decrease.

He tied the red thread to the little finger of the rag doll. The red thread seemed to have some kind of magic. After wrapping around the doll's fingers, the doll began to tremble violently.

The shrine also began to flash with strong light and storms. Everyone else fled in panic, leaving only Ito Jun standing inside the shrine, calmly dealing with the phenomenon happening before his eyes.

The shrine became a toilet, and a girl in a shirt and red skirt floated in the air.

"Who are you? Haha, you are a living person. It's not easy to get here."

The girl floated in front of Ito Jun with her eyes shining.

"Do you want to have sex with me?"

The girl raised a finger and asked with a grin.

Ito Jun raised his eyebrows. Who said that this was the use of tinted glasses? But when he saw such a little Hanako courting him, he couldn't help but feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Several figures emerged from behind Hanako.

Kayako in white clothes with blood on her face, Sadako with a cold expression and fair skin, Mimiko who is short and wearing a white dress, the female singer Paula Bell twisting around naked, the human-faced dog with furry dog ​​ears and tail, and the woman with a slit wearing a mask.

Each of the weird little fingers had a red string tied to it, and the seven monsters stared at Hanako coldly.

Hanako suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis. For the first time, a biting chill appeared on her body. She looked back stiffly, and her famous colleagues appeared in front of her - except for Paula Bell who had to kill countless people with "Used Records" to become famous, the others were all weirdos who had been popular for many years.

"Ah this... well, it seems I can't monopolize you, so let me join in."

Hanako floated behind Ito Jun, hugged his shoulders, and spoke intimately. In her heart, she had already started thinking about how to compete with other evil spirits for Ito Jun's soul after he died.

Anyway, she would never give up Ito Jun's soul.

A strong possessiveness and inexplicable love filled Hanako's soul. Hanako clung to Ito Jun and unceremoniously infiltrated Ito Jun's body with the breath of evil spirits so that he could die earlier.

"The incident has been resolved. As for those two people, ahem… I'm so sorry. He, ahem! They're already dead."
