Tokyo, My Childhood Friend is a Ghost Story

Chapter 105 You are not Kasyapa.
The city at night is like two different worlds compared to during the day, and feels very cold.

In the deliberately emptied city, amidst the clumsy clatter of her high heels, Jia Yezi walked alone into the park.

I walked to a bench and sat down. Through the gaps in the leaves, the dim light from the streetlights cast large shadows on the tree trunks.

Looking at the grass beneath the tree trunk, Jia Yezi couldn't help but recall the night Kasyapa found her.

“Kasyapa…”

"Ok?"

"No, it's nothing."

Jia Yezi's voice, tinged with melancholy and longing, came through the earpiece. Uta Kasaya looked at Higa Haruko beside her.

"Sister Qingzi, has that evil spirit passed away?"

"No."

Haruko Higa shook her head. In fact, she wasn't entirely sure if the evil spirit was still lingering in Osaka.

Her judgment of the evil spirit's trajectory was only based on its southward journey; she couldn't say for sure where it would actually go.

So Haruko didn't have high hopes for tonight's fishing trip.

Noticing the worry in Uta Kasyapa's eyes, Haruko Higa spoke softly.

"Don't worry, Kasyapa. Miss Jiayezi's guardian spirit can break through the restrictions of the Double Heart Quiet Flower Talisman at any time. There's no problem."

Uta Kasyapa nodded in response to Haruko Higa's words of comfort.

Although the chances of that evil spirit harming Jia Yezi are extremely low, the worry is still there.

Especially since Jia Yezi herself is very timid, getting startled or anything like that can cause her a lot of trouble.

"Miss Jiayezi, we've covered most of the city area. Now please proceed to the place where you stayed previously."

"Huh? Okay, okay."

Following Haruko's command, as Kayano took a step, Uta Kayo looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Is this stirring up Jia Yezi's memories?"

"Yes, if it were the delicious coconut I saw before, it wouldn't need to be eaten, but the delicious coconut now doesn't look so appetizing in the eyes of that evil spirit."

As Higa Haruko watched the tracking device track Jia Yezi's movements, she recalled the insecure girl whose gaze was always fixed on the ground when they first met.

But today, she can barely make eye contact with me and weakly greet me.

“She is indeed lucky; Kasyapa-kun takes very good care of her.”

Haruko Higa sincerely remarked that for someone like Kayoko, who is on the verge of autism and is extremely insecure and sensitive, socializing with others requires a great deal of courage.

It was only because of Utakayo's support that Jia Yezi was able to take this step.

It takes a lot of patience to be with someone like that. You have to be careful not only when you speak, but also when you are careful not to offend them with your words and actions.

but
I recall the unnaturally sunken hair behind Jia Yezi's right forehead.

"Is she injured on her forehead?"

"Hmm, the situation is a bit complicated."

As she spoke, Uta Kasaya recounted how Kayano's father had dragged and shoved her, and even stolen her watch. Upon hearing this, Higa Haruko's expression turned quite unpleasant, but she also breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that it's not this boy, but I'm afraid he might see Jia Yezi as weak and easy to bully, and treat her like a plaything, beating her at will when he's unhappy.

"Give me a call if you need to; I'm pretty good at dealing with these kinds of people."

Before she could finish speaking, Higa Haruko gave a self-deprecating laugh.

With Fu Jiang's influence, she wouldn't need to get involved in this kind of thing herself.

Meanwhile, Jia Yezi is taking advantage of the current opportunity to practice and adapt to walking in high heels.

The initially clumsy steps gradually became natural and agile as they continued walking.

"Kasyapa~"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I've learned how to wear high heels!"

"Really? That's amazing. If you're too tired, remember to find a place to rest."

"Hmm~!"

Hearing Utakayo's voice through her earpiece, Kayano jumped up happily, but almost tripped and fell.

"Oh, that scared me to death!"

As she stood up, her eyes inadvertently fell on the girl in the shop window who was both cute and sexy, and Jia Yezi was a little stunned.

Is this me?
“Kasyapa…”

"I'm here! What's wrong?!"

I...I miss you.

Jia Yezi's words, filled with deep longing and affection, made Uta Kasaya pause for a moment before he could even speak. Then, Higa Haruko, standing beside him, reached out and pressed down on his earpiece.

"It's here. An exorcist has sensed its presence."

Then Haruko took the call and spoke to Kayoko.

"Miss Jiayezi, Jiaye-kun's pager is out of power. I will be the one to talk to you from now on."

"Okay, okay." After a long silence, Jia Yezi's voice, filled with deep disappointment and a hint of unease, finally came through.

"Next, please continue moving in the direction you are familiar with."

".good."

Following Haruko's instructions, Kayoko arrived at the river embankment, her gaze unconsciously drifting towards the archway beneath the bridge.

"Miss Jia Yezi, why did you stop?"

"Bridge arch".

"Bridge arch?"

Haruko Higa was taken aback and looked at Uta Kasaya. After learning that Kayano had slept here, Haruko Higa apologized to Uta Kasaya.

What happened to the underpass?

I used to live here.

"What does it feel like? Can you tell me?"

As Haruko Hika guided Kayako to reveal her wounds, Uta Kasaya felt a deep sense of pity.

"Is the bridge underpass warm or cold?"

"."

"How long have you lived there? Are you alone? Do homeless people go there?"

"."

"Does anyone drive you away? Will you get flooded when it rains? Do bugs crawl on you?"

"."

Faced with Haruko Higa's barrage of questions, Kayoko, standing by the river, felt a surge of grievance and sadness.

Like an angry little girl, Jia Yezi ripped off her headphones, pursed her lips, and walked home. However, because she walked too fast and wasn't used to high heels, she twisted her ankle.

In an instant, unable to hold back her emotions, Jia Yezi's tears began to fall down her cheeks, and just then, Uta Kasyapa's anxious shouts came.

"Good coconut, good coconut!"

"Kasyapa! Kasyapa!"

Amidst cries filled with deep grievance, Uta Kasyapa's panting figure appeared before them.

"Are you OK?"

Jia Yezi was taken aback at first, then looked at her ankle with a wronged expression.

"pain"

Seeing this, Uta Kassapa looked sad and offered his hand to Kayanoko.

"Come on, let me pull you to sit over there first, then I'll give it to you."

Before Uta Kassapa could finish speaking, the grievance on Kayokawa's face gradually disappeared, followed by a flash of confusion, and then she became very disappointed.

"You are not Kasyapa"

Uta Kassapa was taken aback at first, then straightened up and looked at her expressionlessly.

"If, if it were Kasyapa, he would look down at my ankle and treat it immediately."

"You are, you are the bad thing. It's all your fault."

The evil spirit, its identity exposed, stared at Jia Yezi struggling to get up from the ground. Its eyes suddenly turned black, and its body rapidly grew taller, like a deformed stick insect. With a silent roar, it raised its claws and pounced on Jia Yezi.

"It's all your fault, Kasyapa, that you left me all alone!!"

With its eyes closed and filled with angry shouts, the charging evil spirit suddenly found itself surrounded by darkness. The dense spiritual energy, almost crushing it, instantly brought it to the ground.

Its instinctive fear made it frantically wave its limbs, only to be held tightly by pale arms.

card wipe.

Amidst the sound of shattering glass, the evil spirit's limbs were instantly crushed. Before it could struggle further, a pale hand emerged from the darkness and dug deep into its face.

Then, as if pulling on putty, with the sound of a rubber band snapping, like a watermelon being peeled open, the entire face of the evil spirit was forcibly pried off.

However, the torment had only just begun. As a large amount of cold spiritual energy surged into its body, the evil spirit, now restored, faced the next round of torment.

On the other side, realizing that the call had ended, Uta Kasaya no longer cared about Hika Haruko's so-called mission and rushed towards the direction where Kayano was.

"Jia coconut, Jia coconut!!"

Are you alright?

"Where are you hurt? Why aren't you saying anything?!"

Before Jia Yezi could even speak, Uta Kasaya squatted down next to her right foot, which she dared not put down.

"You twisted your ankle?"

"Hmm~"

Jiayezi's cheerful response startled Utada Kassapa. He looked up and saw that she had opened her arms to him.

"Hug~"

Although he didn't know why Jia Yezi suddenly acted cute, after confirming that her ankle was fine, Uta Kasyapa stood up and gently hugged the girl who rarely acted cute.
