Evil Spirit Consultant

Chapter 1: Graduation Extension
Late February.

Island country, Tokyo, Bunkyo Ward, in a famous university.

The atmosphere in the psychology department's office was terribly heavy. Professor Seiichi Miyamoto, with gray hair, looked at the documents in his hands with a face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip from it.

After a long while, the old professor put the documents in his hand on the table and slowly spoke to his students in front of him:
"Yang Sang, you don't want to be unable to graduate, right?!"

Yang Liu, who was originally nervous, choked when she heard the words. She swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and didn't dare to respond.

"Uh……"

The angry professor didn't care about Yang Liu's reaction and continued to scold:

"I know that you students have always thought that internships are just a formality after becoming a monk (the Japanese name for graduate students), and that papers and research are what are important. But! That is a wrong concept. Even internships must be taken seriously. This will help you..."

Letting Professor Miyamoto's admonition pass through her cerebral cortex without leaving a trace, Yang Liu secretly glanced at the document on the table, which was her internship transcript.

No, judging from the above content, it might be more accurate to call it a "complaint letter".

Looking at the crimes described in such harsh words, Yang Liu began to doubt whether he had really done something against the law.

“…Three! During the entire internship period, three psychological counseling platforms were all complained by visitors. What on earth are you doing?!”

The sound of Professor Miyamoto Seiichi slamming the table brought Yang Liu back to his senses. Without any intention of arguing, Yang Liu, who knew her mentor's character very well, responded cooperatively:
"Yes...I'm so sorry, Professor..."

Looking at his student's appearance, Professor Miyamoto sighed helplessly, and then he calmed down and spoke in a gentler tone:
"I've seen your efforts, and I know there must be some misunderstanding. But unfortunately, rules are rules. If you don't pass the internship, you may have to postpone your graduation this year."

"Yes……"

"Okay, there's nothing else to do today, you can go back first."

After Professor Miyamoto issued the order to expel the student, he hesitated for a moment after looking at the size of the student in front of him, and then could not help but remind him:
"Yang Sang, although exercising is a good habit, you must also learn to stop when you have enough. After all, in the process of practical psychological counseling, we must give the client enough sense of security. An overly large body may bring additional fear..."

Hearing this, Yang Liu, who was over two meters tall, with a broad back and strong waist, a horse could walk on his shoulders, a person could stand on his fists, and the muscles on his arms were bigger than a person's head, forced out a "nuclear-hearted" smile with his face full of flesh:
"Don't worry, professor, I'm just interested in fitness, nothing more than a hobby."

Professor Miyamoto waved his hands in a headache: "Forget it, as long as you know what's going on."

"Then I'm sorry..."

Watching Yang Liu struggling to "squeeze" out of the "narrow" door, Miyamoto Seiichi's originally kind face turned gloomy again.

After sitting in the chair and thinking for a moment, he took out his mobile phone, found a phone number and called it.

Although it cannot be said openly, it is not just the students who think that internships are just a formality. Professors like Seiichi Miyamoto also have the same idea in their hearts.

On the other hand, such a simple formality can be judged as unqualified, and three companies have done so in a row, which shows that there is a big problem.

Miyamoto Kiyoshi knew what his students were like. Considering that Yang Liu was his student, the other party's goal was self-evident.

"Hello? It's me..."

……

……

After leaving the office, the ashamed look on Yang Liu's face instantly disappeared and she walked straight out of the school.

Yang Liu was certainly not in a good mood as she had suffered such an unexpected disaster for no apparent reason.

However, it was not his turn to step forward in this matter. He also knew his mentor's character. Although he was very capable, he was narrow-minded.

After being slapped in the face like this, it is estimated that this old professor has already started using his connections to find someone to retaliate.

As they approached the main entrance of the school, Yang Liu's hurried steps paused slightly, and her eyes turned unconsciously.

He could clearly "see" a figure with strange movements wandering outside the school gate.

The long hair covered her face, but judging from her body shape, she should be a woman.

The slightly illusory body and the black "mist" that continuously emerged from it made it obvious that this person was something like a ghost.

The pedestrians and security guards around turned a blind eye to it, as if only Yang Liu could see this scene.

Like many people, Yang Liu actually has a secret that cannot be known to others, just like his browser history - he is a person with super powers!
Strictly speaking, even Yang Liu himself is not sure whether his special ability should be considered a superpower or a natural gift, or just a special physique, but he does have such a special power.

"Another new one?"

Yang Liu calmly changed her direction slightly, making sure she could get closer to the wandering ghost when she left the school. "...University...I want to go to...University...Where is it?!"

The female ghost was wandering around the school gate, muttering in an unclear voice.

From her murmurs, we can tell that her goal is to enter this university, but the school gate is right in front of her but she is wandering aimlessly, as if she is trapped in some invisible maze.

Yang Liu slowed down his pace and took a look at the high school uniform that was transformed from the ghost's spirit. He understood: "Is she trapped in a 'mental barrier'? This is a classic behavior of a vengeful spirit."

Most ghosts will unconsciously reproduce the posture they were in when they were born. Judging from the posture, clothing and words of the female ghost in front of us, there is no doubt that she is another unlucky child who was killed by the pressure of going to school.

In theory, such a ghost only needs to fulfill its obsession to escape its current situation, which is what the Japanese call becoming a Buddha.

However, the obsessions during one's lifetime will turn into mental mazes, which will lead to a situation similar to the one before us, where one has clearly followed the obsession to his or her goal, but is unable to enter.

It seems so close, but in fact it is so far away.

Over time, ghosts will either be worn away by the passage of time or eventually disappear forever.

Otherwise, the resentment and obsession in the heart will become deeper and deeper, and eventually it will turn from a "vengeful spirit" into an "evil spirit".

Seeing the female ghost in front of him turning unconsciously because of mental barrier when approaching the school gate, Yang Liu pondered for a moment, reached into the pocket of his windbreaker and grabbed his wallet.

He walked quickly out the door, taking out his wallet and rummaging through it.

"Eh?" Yang Liu raised her voice slightly and searched inside her wallet again, "Where's the subway card?"

Then, pretending to search her body, Yang Liu turned around and looked at the school building: "Oh! Maybe I forgot it in the classroom. I'll go to the university to look for it..."

Yang Liu deliberately made the pronunciation of the words "enter university" very clear.

Although his speech was grammatically confusing, Yang Liu was already very good at making use of his persona of "a foreigner who is not very good at Japanese".

Just as Yang Liu expected, after hearing his words, the ghost that was gradually moving away suddenly turned around and floated quickly to his side, sticking closely behind him.

“…I want to…go to…university”

Listening to the female ghost mumbling incoherently behind her, Yang Liu turned her head slightly and saw the other person's face clearly hidden by the black mist and long hair.

All I can say is, it’s horrible!
His entire face was a bloody mess, his facial features had turned into a paste and merged together, and there was even a dent on his head. It was obvious at first glance that he had fallen from a high place and landed on his face.

If an ordinary person looked at this face, he would probably be so scared that he couldn't sleep at night.

Feeling the "cold" breath coming from behind her, Yang Liu took a step, stepped through the door again, and returned to the university.

The ghost following closely behind him also followed Yang Liu into the university. When crossing the area of the school gate, the ghost's body seemed to touch some invisible barrier.

The black mist wrapped around his body was peeled off, and his bloody and broken head was reshaped as if time had gone back. His loose hair was automatically tied up, and his originally chaotic eyes became clear again.

After entering university, the ghost that was originally covered in black mist and blood has turned into an ordinary female high school student. Except for some illusions in her body, she looks like a normal student going to and from school.

"Is this... the university?" The ghost looked at the scenes in front of him and was a little confused for a moment.

"Yeah, this is college. There's nothing to see."

A subtle but clear voice came from the side. The girl who had turned into a ghost was startled and looked at the tall, bear-like figure beside her in doubt.

"You...you can see me? Who are you?!"

"Of course. If I hadn't brought you in here, you would have been wandering outside for who knows how long. As for me, just treat me as a psychic passing by..."

Yang Liu nodded slightly, took out the wireless headphones and put them on her ears, while taking the cell phone in her hand and pretending to be on the phone.

After doing all this, Yang Liu turned to look at the ghost and tried her best to put on a gentle smile: "How is it? Do you want to go shopping?"

The ghost hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the desire in his heart: "Okay..."

"Let's go, I'll be your tour guide. The road we're walking on now is the main road of the school, which is called..."

Yang Liu introduced the various facilities and scenery of the school with familiarity while leading the way.

The ghost followed him cautiously at first, but was soon attracted by Yang Liu's explanation, relaxed his vigilance, and immersed himself in the surrounding scenery.
