Tokyo, My Childhood Friend is a Ghost Story

Chapter 182 A Heart That Never Shows Mercy or Regret
At the desk at the back of the bookshelf, Jia Yezi looked at the romance comics in her hands, her heart no longer stirred by the blush-inducing moments of intimacy.

Well, it's not that my heart is completely still; there are still some traces left.

"Store manager."

Hearing the sound, Jia Yezi looked up.

"These are crepes and some green tea that I bought for you. Try them out."

"Thank you~"

Jia Yezi took the crepe and put it in her mouth. Looking at Zhen Shuizi, who was still standing in front of her waiting for her evaluation, Jia Yezi took a crepe and handed it to her.

"Eh?"

"You eat too."

Masamiko was taken aback at first, then smiled and took the crepe, put it in her mouth, took a bite, and then frowned slightly.

"Hmm, it's a little sweet?"

Jia Yezi blinked and swallowed the last piece.

I think it's okay.

"Really? If the manager likes it, then we'll add his crepes to the dessert menu from now on."

"Uh-huh!"

At the bar counter behind, the 'cleaner' was frantically cleaning the baseball cap.

"The service desk needs to hold out a little longer; this thing died in a disgusting way!"

Even highly trained individuals would feel uneasy and even feel a sense of dread upon seeing the suddenly dead baseball cap.

Fortunately, the Inoue family had provided them with specialized training when they were assigned to work here, so there was no panic or screaming.

Under the pretext of tidying up the bookshelf, Masamiko blocked Jia Yezi's view for a full fifteen minutes, and the cleaning staff finally managed to remove the corpse from the ground.

The disappearance of the baseball cap, like its appearance, came and went silently.

It was tough on Matsuda. After receiving Mazuko's call, Matsuda rushed to the garbage recycling room of Gofuko. When he saw the baseball cap that had almost turned into liquid in the garbage bag, his face twisted in pain.

"Chief Matsuda, this man died inexplicably in the store. His death has nothing to do with us. If needed, you can view the surveillance footage."

When Masamiko's explanation arrived, Matsuda casually waved his hand.

As the police officer chosen by Asahi Toshifu to succeed him as chief of police, he knew far more than the average police officer.

“I understand, his death certainly has nothing to do with you.”

Even if Masamiko and her colleagues are professionals, they couldn't possibly turn a living person into a semi-liquid state in an instant.

At most, it can be cut into several large pieces, and that's with a lot of noise.

So, it's probably Ms. Jia Yezi's side.

"Well, you could say this is like walking into a trap."

With mixed emotions, Yoshimura Hanako, who had rushed over, glanced at the corpse in the baseball cap, but only for a moment before turning away.

Do you have identification?

Upon hearing this, Masamiko took over a series of documents and strange props from the baseball cap.

"They are all fake documents."

Yoshimura Hanako and Matsuda exchanged a glance, both knowing that the trail had completely died out here.

Then, Yoshimura Hanako woke Hanako from her body. Hanako first cautiously looked up at the top of her head to make sure there was no one watching or feeling uneasy before she began to examine the corpse in the baseball cap.

"Hmm, very clean, extremely clean. All that brutal spiritual energy has disappeared."

Her gaze fell on the dominoes left by the baseball cap and the finger bone necklace. To make sure she wasn't mistaken, Hanako even went inside for a walk.

"They're all gone." Shaking her head, Hanako carefully leaned on Yoshimura Hanako's shoulder and silently prayed.

Don't see me, don't see me.
She still remembers that at the dinner party at Fangcun's house, she had a mischievous idea to scare everyone, and then she got a huge beating, which almost shattered her spirit.
After confirming with Hanako that the man in the baseball cap was completely dead, Yoshimura Hanako took out her phone and dialed Higa Haruko's number.

He told Haruko Higa about the baseball cap situation, and Haruko Higa's speechlessness was almost palpable over the phone.

"How have these people survived this long? Even if they can't see, wouldn't the little ghosts or evil spirits they raise warn them to leave this place?"

"Don't let your guard down. It's best to check if he has any accomplices or anything like that. Also, keep an eye on his relatives with marriage certificates."

"These people who practice evil magic often target the family members or friends of their clients."

"clear."

After hanging up the phone, Matsuda looked at Mazuko.

"Then... Miss Masamiko, would you please handle this?"

Upon hearing this, Zhenshuizi nodded and instructed her subordinates to find a place to handle the matter before the group arrived at the bookstore entrance.

Just then, Miyagawa Hayashi walked over from the Aotegu headquarters across the street. After a brief eye contact, the group looked at each other in bewilderment.

"President Miyagawa, what's going on?"

Matsuda's words brought Miyagawa Sho back to his senses, and he glanced at the dorayaki in his hand.

"My mother made some dorayaki. Miss Kayoko likes sweets and snacks, so I'm taking some over to her. Officer Matsuda, what's going on here?"

Upon hearing this, Yoshimura Hanako looked at Miyagawa Shoshu, who had walked to the side, and reached out to take out a dorayaki.

"Um, Miss Yoshimura, if you like, I can buy you a special one. This one is for Miss Kayoko."

As Miyagawa Sayo's eyelids twitched and he hesitated to speak, Yoshimura Hanako waved her hand dismissively.

"Just say I took it, Jia Yezi won't say anything."

".All right."

Watching Miyagawa Shoshu, who seemed to want to say something but didn't dare to speak and left somewhat angrily, Matsuda looked at Yoshimura Hanako, who was enjoying a dorayaki.

"Did he know about Miss Jia Yezi's special status?"

Yoshimura Hanako shook her head, savoring the taste of the dorayaki.

"I don't know, maybe it's just that he saw Jia Yezi as his own sister."

"what?"

Matsuda was shocked upon hearing this, then looked at Miyagawa Shoshu, who had disappeared at the stairwell, with a hint of envy.

"This is such incredible luck!"

Hanako Yoshimura raised her eyebrows in response to Chief Matsuda's envy, indicating that she couldn't help him.

Luck may be helpful, but action is the key to getting closer.

If luck could truly determine everything, then Uta Kasyapa would have no place in the game.

Putting aside Jia Yezi, just look at Fu Jiang. How many people have had the good fortune to meet her or share a room with her?

Besides Utakayo, who else could get close to this enchanting queen and, no, get to know her better?

Meeting is just the beginning; whether you can get closer depends on your actions.

The key is Miyagawa Shoshu's ulterior motives in caring for Kayoko. If his actions had been mixed with other factors, not to mention Kayoko's guardian spirit, Fukie would have taught him a lesson.

Beneath Fu Jiang's sweet and alluring exterior lies a heart that is ruthless and merciless.

Once her territory is offended and someone tries to influence the people she cares about, it can be deadly.
