Is it okay not to want to work hard?

"She didn't spend the night alone. Didn't Hongxia tell you that she went to bother Hongxia?"

Higashino Zou leaned closer to Izumi Konata, feeling a little more comfortable due to the warmth from her.

"Oh, is that so? I don't know. I haven't checked my phone. I don't know where I lost it. I haven't found it for a whole day."

Quan Cifang stuck out his tongue.

Seeing the tongue sticking out, Higashino Kanade couldn't help but take action.

"?"

Izumi Konakata stared at Tono Kanade with eyes wide open, and Tono Kanade immediately withdrew his hand awkwardly, explaining, "I couldn't help it, like a puppy."

"slightly!"

Quan Cifang stuck out his tongue and said, "You are the puppy. No, you are the big dog."

"Yes, yes, I'm the big dog and you're the little dog." Dongye Kanade nodded, put one hand on Quan Konata's head, and smiled and teased his ahoge, "Look, your ahoge looks like a dog's tail."

"Don't touch it, it's annoying."

Quan Cifang dodged her head, but the evil hand on her head was still there. She said viciously: "If you do this again, I will bite you."

"Bite me? How do you bite me? It's...hiss!"

Before Higashino Kanade could finish his words, his other hand was bitten by Izumi Konakata who pounced on him.

Well, it’s this bite, not that bite.

Chapter 39 True Spiritual Art

Blood, broken bones, eyeballs, hearts...

Alone at home, Dongye Zou set up a magic circle with gravel in the yard and prepared to perform a ritual.

He's going to be psychic!

There is no need to chant any spells, just inject spiritual power into the magic circle.

He didn't know whether his mental power could be considered spiritual power, but he would give it a try. If it didn't work, then it wouldn't work.

"Du-du-du-!"

Hmm? Hmm? Hmm?

Higashino Kanade injected spiritual power, and a strange sound suddenly rang out from the magic circle. The sound was a bit like... a phone call?

"Hello, this is the Sanzuchuan Survivor Service Hotline. May I ask what service you need?"

The phone, no, a woman's voice came from the magic circle, sounding like customer service.

"Uh...looking for someone?"

Higashino Kanade said uncertainly.

"May I ask what race you are looking for? Demon, succubus, ghost, gargoyle. If you are looking for a murderous ghost, please contact..."

The person on the other end kept talking, and after listening to it, Higashino Kanade was sure that the person on the other end was the customer service, the customer service of the underworld.

"Ghost, it should be a ghost, the name is Izumi Hirano."

Higashino Kanade told the other party all the detailed information about his mother-in-law.

"Okay, I will now transfer you to Ms. Izumi Kanata who lived in Ikebukuro, Tokyo."

There was no sound from the other end after he finished speaking, and then the sound of "beep-beep-beep" was heard again.

After a while, a voice that was strange but familiar to Higashino Kanade came from the other side.

"Hello, hello, you are Xiaozou, right?"

The person on the opposite side recognized Higashino Kanade at once.

"Aunt Bifang, long time no see, how did you know it's mine?"

Higashino Kanade looked at the blue light that fluctuated with the sound and felt it was very magical.

"Because you are the one with super powers, Xiaozou, no one else can call me except you."

Izumi Bifang is worthy of being Izumi Konata's mother. Her tone is as lazy as Konata's.

"It turns out that the psychic skill I learned is really the telephone."

Dong Ye Kanade was surprised when he saw the cool and second-rate magic circle on the ground emitting a faint blue light.

"Haha, what do you want to talk to me about? Is it Konata who missed me, or Sojiro who missed me?"

Izumi Hikata smiled and asked Tono Kanade why she contacted her.

"Is such that……"

Dongye Zou told them that he and his friends were going fishing. First, he hoped that his mother-in-law could come to look after his father-in-law, and second, he hoped that Kondo could see his mother. Although he had not tried it, he could try to transfer his mental power to Kondo and let Kondo share his vision with him. If it worked, then Hongxia could do the same, and then he would be much more relaxed and would not have to be a messenger all the time.

"Hey, is this why you contacted me?"

Izumi Kanata didn't expect this, but it was time for her to go see Sojiro and Konata. They must have been lonely after so many years.

"By the way, Auntie, where have you been traveling? You haven't come back in all these years."

"Ah, this..." I heard the other side say embarrassedly, "We are traveling to the Sanzu River. It is a bit difficult to get up if it is not the Bon Festival. So if you want me to come up, go to the shrine before fishing and pray to the gods to make an exception."

"..."

My goodness, this is not a trip to Sanzu River, but a capture by the underworld and brought back to Sanzu River.

In this case, there are laws in the underworld, which is true. If not, the real world would have been in chaos long ago. Although there are many ghosts in this world, he rarely encounters evil spirits. I think it must be the ghost messengers such as the Black and White Impermanence who are doing the work.

After that, Higashino Kanade and Izumi Kanata didn't talk about anything else because their phone credit was running out.

The materials on the magic circle were visibly decaying. When the decay reached a certain speed, he could no longer hear the voice on the other side. He could only say that he immediately went to the shrine to pray and then disconnected.

"Outrageous."

Dongye Kanade looked at the magic circle on the ground and felt that it was outrageous. He thought that the magic circle was to summon ghosts, or to let him see the appearance of the underworld. He didn't expect it to be a phone call. Hearing the customer service on the other end not being surprised when he knew it was a call from the living, he knew that such things happened frequently.

That’s good, as long as you have a place to stay after you die.

Don’t be a lonely ghost, be a ghost in Sanzu River.

I just don't know what kind of ideology Sanzu River is. I hope it has entered capitalism. If it is feudal, he hopes that when he goes there, he will have superpowers, the kind that can kill gods and Buddhas. If it is a feudal society, then he will make a big fuss in Sanzu River and establish a society... cough, cough, I think too much.

Higashino Kanade dealt with the magic circle and immediately ran to the nearest shrine to pray. With Aunt Kanata, there is no need to worry about Uncle Sojiro changing size at will, well, changing abnormally. Although he will inevitably become a messenger eunuch and have to pass messages to Uncle Sojiro and Aunt Kanata, it is better than Uncle Sojiro slapping Nijika, Ichiri, and Kikuri.

Besides, we will know when the time comes by trying to transfer mental power using super powers. If we can lend mental power to Konata and Uncle Sojiro, then everyone will have a bright future.

Higashino Kanade went out in the morning and it was already afternoon when he returned to Izumi Kinkata's house.

"Where have you been."

As soon as he entered the house, Izumi Konata in the living room saw Tono Kanade and asked curiously.

"I went to the shrine."

Higashino Kanade sat next to Izumi Konata, lying lazily on the sofa and took a long breath.

"Why are you going to the shrine? To find the shrine maiden? Are you attracted to Kagami and Tsukasa?"

Izumi Konakata remembered that her good friends Xiao Si and Xiao Jing's families owned a shrine, so they were both shrine maidens. Thinking of this, her eyes suddenly became sharp.

"What are you talking about? I just went there to pray."

Higashino Kanade ignored Izumi Konata's sharp eyes, his body gradually became limp and collapsed on the sofa, and said, "I'm going to ask Aunt Konata for help."

"Eh? Mom?"

When Quan Cifang heard the word "that side", he suddenly became excited.

"Well, your mother is in Sanzu River. She wants me to report to the local god before I can come up."

Higashino Kanade felt that he could find an opportunity to study the underworld culture of this world. When the time comes, he could contact the service hotline more often to see where he could learn about the news about the underworld in this world.

When the time comes, I will really have to raise my arms and shout, "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born with different species?" This will enable me to know myself and the enemy, and I will be able to fight a hundred battles without defeat.

"Eh? Eh?"

Quan Cifang was shocked. What shocked her was not anything else but that her mother was still there!

"Why didn't you tell me you could contact mom."

Izumi Konata suddenly pounced on Tono Kanade.

"I just contacted him today, okay? I didn't know how to do psychic before. I couldn't do it at all. Now, ugh, I don't know how to do psychic either."

Higashino Kanade subconsciously hugged Izumi Konata, who looked like a big doll, and said this.

Dong Ye Zou really didn't want to admit that the unlucky magic circle was considered psychic magic. It looked cool, but it was actually a phone call.

I can’t stand it. I really can’t stand it.

Chapter 40 Go fishing

At night, Izumi Konata and Izumi Sojiro sat together, opposite them was Higashino Kanade who was feeling very uneasy. Higashino Suzu sat between the three of them, looking left and right, eating snacks and drinking Coke in a happy mood.

"Why didn't you tell us such an important thing?"

“If you confess, you will be treated with leniency, if you resist, you will be treated with severity.”

The cause of all this was that Tono Kanade contacted Izumi Kanata, and Izumi Kanata and Izumi Sojiro knew that he had seen Izumi Kanata's soul a long time ago.

But he never told them about this and kept it secret from them.

"This is what Aunt Bifang didn't allow me to say. You can't blame me."

Higashino Kanade spread his hands helplessly. What could he do? There is a difference between yin and yang. This place and Uncle Sojiro can't see Aunt Kanata, and Aunt Kanata has gone traveling again. He said it would be better not to say anything.

"Why can't you be blamed for this? If she told you not to, you wouldn't say it. If I told you to stay away from this place, did you stay away from this place?"

Izumi Sojiro slammed the table, looking very annoyed.

"I'll stay a little closer to this side."

An awkward but polite smile appeared on Higashino Kanade's face.

Some words can be listened to, and some words cannot be listened to.

"Did mom come back during this time?"

Quan Cifang lay on the table, feeling a little homesick when she thought about meeting her mother in two days.

"I think I'll be back for the Obon Festival. I don't know. I won't go out of my way to see ghosts."

Higashino Kanade shook his head. This was the truth. He opened his third eye every day, so he really didn't know if Aunt Kanata had ever come back. He thought she had come back, after all, during the Obon Festival, the gates of hell were wide open, and the dead souls of hell came to the world of the living to visit their relatives.

"That's it."

Quan Chifang felt a little depressed.

To be honest, she doesn't have much impression of her mother, because her mother died when she was very young. Now that she is so old and wants to meet her mother, she feels a little at a loss for a moment.

Mom, this word seems a little far away from her.

"Then have a good chat with that person, this person."

Seeing his daughter looking sad, Izumi Sojiro comforted her with loving eyes.

I haven't seen him for a long time. I didn't expect to have the chance to meet him. I should dress nicely and behave properly. I can't let him look disappointed after meeting him after such a long time.

"Ah."

Quan Chifang nodded.

Higashino Kanade imagined that it would be a three-judge trial, but what he didn't expect was that Konata and Uncle Sojiro fell into sadness, and the trial seemed to end just like that.

In the evening, Dongye Kanade went home to sleep.

Although he wanted to sleep with Kondo, Kondo probably needed some quiet time alone tonight.
