——There is only one convenience store in the entire village, the streets are sparsely populated, and there is only an elementary school or at most a junior high school in the village.

But Uesugi Tetsu found that there were unexpectedly many people walking on the street, and many of them were young people in their twenties and thirties, and there were even three or two foreign faces among them.

He remembered what the old driver had said before: he must try the hot springs here.

"Is it because of the hot springs that the tourism industry has flourished..."

Uesugi Tetsu started searching one by one according to the house numbers, but after he had searched twice, he still didn't find the house that corresponded to the address that Gu Nu said.

strangeness.

Uesugi Tetsu asked an elderly woman who was passing by, "Grandma, do you know where the house at 4-chome, 2-1 is?"

But who would have thought that the old woman's expression changed instantly after hearing the address. Her originally kind face immediately wrinkled into a ball. She waved her hand and stepped back.

"I don't know! I've never heard of it! There's never been such a house number here!"

The old man seemed to curse again, and then left quickly as if he was avoiding the plague god.

Uesugi Toru stared at her back and frowned slightly.

Next, Uesugi Tetsu randomly found a dozen local elderly people in Yuhara River Town.

Originally, these old people were all enthusiastic in talking to him, the "tourist".

But as soon as Uesugi Tetsu reported the address, these old people were so afraid to avoid him that they left in a hurry without saying a word.

"There's something fishy going on..."

In the setting sun, Uesugi Tetsu paced back and forth a little impatiently. He was wondering whether he should release the Hundred-Eyed Demon Eyeball and then use the method of elimination to determine the location of the house.

But as he walked, Uesugi Tetsu suddenly found that the surroundings had become quiet.

He looked behind him and found that he had unknowingly walked into a secret path in the forest.

Looking back, an old plaque with the four big characters "Goto Baths" engraved on it came into view.

Goto—seems to be the last name of the bone girl.

Uesugi Tetsu shifted his gaze slightly and saw the address [4-chome, 2-1] on the house number that was so old and even rotten.

What a coincidence.

Now happened to be the time of the devil, and the place he had been searching for for a long time suddenly appeared in front of him at this moment.

"What a coincidence?"

Uesugi Chelang laughed, put on the sad and cold mask of Prajna on his face, and then pushed open the door of Goto Bathhouse and walked in.

Uesugi Tetsu looked around and asked loudly, "Is there no one to welcome the guests?"

No one responded.

In the quiet Goto Bathhouse, only dust was blown up by the wind from the door and hit the hem of Uesugi Tetsu's clothes.

The frightened deer in the pond had long since dried up and cracked, with not a drop of water left; the wind chime by the door had its straps broken, and the colorless bell lay on the cobblestone ground, without a sound.

It seems that although this bathhouse has some strange features, it should have been a long time since that era.

The entire Goto Baths was unexpectedly large.

In a normal bathhouse, after opening the door, you would walk into the front desk, and then there would be two bathing pools for men and women. However, Goto Bathhouse actually left a small path of about 20 to 30 meters between the entrance and the main body of the bathhouse.

The place that the Bone Girl told him to go to was under the cherry tree in the yard, so Uesugi Che did not go into the house, but walked around the yard several times.

Finally, he stopped in front of a small, bare, black tree that had long been dead.

"Is this the cherry tree she mentioned that would grow tall and large, and be extremely eye-catching..."

Uesugi Tetsu took out the jade box and sighed when he saw it emitting a faint fluorescence.

It seems that the last note of The Bone Girl's Wish does not seem to be an exaggeration, but simply describes the facts.

He squatted down, took out a rusty hatchet and started digging the soil.

After a while, a small pile of moist soil appeared next to Uesugi Tetsu's feet, and when he wanted to continue digging, he felt the hatchet hit a hard object.

Ok?

What's in the topsoil?

Uesugi Che reached out and dug out a small pink iron box from the pile of dirt. The box was tied up with layers of tape and had a label on the inside.

After sweeping away all the dirt, he squinted his eyes and made out the meaning of the crooked words on the label.

——[Goto Yoko’s wish box].

Uesugi Che was slightly stunned.

Goto Yoko?

Goto...

Yezi!?

Chapter 121 Ten Hatchlings Night Walker Three Stars (7k)

Is it just a coincidence that the names are the same, or...

Uesugi Che slowly pulled off the transparent tape on the iron box.

However, names like "Yezi" are not used as frequently as common surnames like "Tanaka" and "Aoyama". Instead, they are extremely rare.

The real Goto Yoko was tricked by Nishiyama Ryota into the mountains and buried alive long before she met him. She even let her resentment accumulate and turned into a bone girl to seek revenge.

If the two are really the same person, then what was the "Ye Zi" he had seen before?

Uesugi Tetsu turned around and saw another shorter building behind the bathhouse.

Is Goto Yoko the same Yoko I saw when I killed the princess's humanoid before? I believe the answer can be found there.

But don't rush.

Uesugi Che completely tore off the layers of tape wrapped around the pink iron box, carefully opened the lid, and saw a number of small pieces of paper with yellowed edges stacked inside.

The handwriting above is still a little crooked, and it can be seen that the person who wrote it is not very old.

He looked at the first note on top.

I decided to go to school in Yokohama today, so I can go home and see my parents every week... But I buried my wish box before I go to school. I don't know what I'll accomplish when I dig it out after graduation.

Uesugi Che was silent for a moment, then took out a stack of notes of different colors.

He was ready to watch them all.

This is also a way to find out whether the two Goto Yokos are the same person.

the second one.

I'm about to graduate from junior high! My mom asked me if I wanted to go to Yokohama, which is close by, so I could get home more easily, or go to the big city of Tokyo and go to school with Yumeko. Hmm... that sounds like a tough decision.

The third one.

Yumeko said she's transferring to Tokyo. Don't anime always say childhood sweethearts stay together forever? So sad QWQ. But I think we'll definitely meet again!

The fourth one.

I met my first friend at school. Her name was Hoshino Yumeko. She said we could be friends forever. A lifetime...it always feels so long.

The fifth one.

I played house with the dolls under the cherry blossom tree today. My mom scolded me, but I had a lot of fun. I'm going to play with the dolls again in the future.

last one.

[Birthday cake, mom bought a doll, I'm so happy! ]

Probably confirmed.

Uesugi Tetsu closed the wish box again.

The "Yoko" and "Goto Yoko" he met before should be the same person.

"But it's really unpredictable."

After placing the small jade box and the wish box into the pit together, Uesugi Tetsu buried the soil back in handfuls and patted it down.

- When Goto Yoko felt that life was very long at that time, would she have thought that she would end up being buried in the same place by a stranger together with the wish box that she had buried with her own hands?

Probably not.

Uesugi Tetsu sighed with a hint of emotion and looked at the prompt that popped up after he buried the jade box.

You have buried the "Bone Maiden's Wish" in the graveyard of the Bone Maiden's wishes. You have gained the permanent benefit of tomorrow.

[Tomorrow: Many things will gradually develop in the direction you expect as time goes by.]

[——Tomorrow will always be a little better than today. I firmly believe this and I practice this.]

This buff looks very good. Although it may not be easily perceived at the moment, it may be a crucial help in the future when the tide of the times continues to surge.

What's more, he just ran an errand for someone else, but he was still not satisfied and wanted a good reward?

However, after staring at the introduction at the end for a while, Uesugi Che felt that it was a bit ironic.

Forget it.

After turning off the prompt, Uesugi Tetsu decided to go to the small building at the back, which was Goto Yoko's home.

Although the contents of the wish box suggest that the two are the same person, there is no absolutely definitive proof.

The situation in her family will determine whether Uesugi Tetsu will take action against the "Yezi" who left with Monk Huiming.

Uesugi Che took one last look at the small mound under the dead cherry tree, then withdrew his gaze and walked to the front of the small building, opening the door to the side without any hindrance.

A thick cloud of dust rose up, causing Uesugi Che to frown and wave his hand.

He lowered his head and saw that there was at least a finger's thickness of dust accumulated in the gap of the entrance steps... Judging from the extent, this house had not been lived in or visited for at least four or five years.

Wearing Kaga Kiyomizu's sword around his waist, Uesugi Tetsu opened the cabinets and doors one by one with his left hand, while his right hand rested on the hilt of the sword, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

But everything is normal.

It seemed that this attic was simply an abandoned house that had not been lived in for a long time.

"There's one last room."

Uesugi Tetsu stood in front of the last room on the third floor, staring at the plaque that read "Utility Room", and had a premonition that "he would definitely discover something".

Kaka-

With some difficulty, he pushed aside the dusty shoji screen and looked inside.

"whispering sound."

Uesugi Che narrowed his eyes.

The floor of the utility room is not only spotless, but there is not even a single piece of extra debris to be seen. It can almost be said to be cleaned thoroughly.

In the entire utility room, a tall and exquisite seven-tiered altar was placed in the center, facing the door.

The so-called seven-tiered Hinamatsuri altar is a staircase-shaped object specially used to display the Hina dolls purchased for the Girls' Festival.

In addition to the first five floors which house a total of 15 dolls, the sixth and seventh floors are filled with dowry furniture and means of transportation respectively.

Originally, this was nothing.

But on the seven-tiered altar in front of him, the first five tiers where the young human figures should have been placed were empty, while the sixth and seventh tiers were fully furnished with all the items, and they were all spotless.

The surfaces of the furniture and sedan reflected a faint light, making them look as new as when they were first bought.

So, who is cleaning this seven-story altar regularly?

The answer speaks for itself.

Uesugi Che let out a breath, took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed Huiming's number.

Even if the Ye Zi he had seen before was not in human form, it was definitely some other non-human creature.

And now, that thing sneaked into the Honganji Temple where only a few big cats and small cats were staying with unknown purpose.

The one and a half star official female figure alone almost overturned the entire temple, so this "Yako" would definitely not be able to be dealt with by the masters of Honganji alone.

But the strange thing is... why didn't the label of "evil spirits" pop up above Ye Zi's head when I saw her before?
