Tokyo, My Childhood Friend is a Ghost Story

Chapter 53 Don't eat pickled radishes!!!
Sitting cross-legged under the eaves, Xiao Hei, whom Jia Yezi had summoned, yawned boredly and lay down beside Uta Kassapa's legs, with a hand behind it ready to stop it from rushing into the house at any moment.

Uta Kassapa hadn't forgotten that there was a little one at home. If she let Kuro go in and let her eat him like a mouse, that would be truly heartbreaking.

I'm afraid I'd be so startled that I'd slap myself twice if I woke up in the middle of the night.

Looking back at the two noobs playing Go in the living room, I have to say, it's amazing how long they can play a game of Go for twenty minutes.

"juice."

"Coming!"

Picking up Xiao Hei and placing it on his shoulder, Uta Kassapa poured a glass of juice for each of them, while Xiao Hei looked on in bewilderment.

Jia Yezi's parents were completely unaware that their daughter hadn't eaten at home for half a month. Such extreme neglect would be extremely agonizing for anyone.

Jia Yezi survived in such an environment for nearly ten years, so it's no wonder she developed the personality of clinging to anyone who showed her even the slightest kindness.

As night fell, after watching the two women leave their respective homes, Uta Kasyapa went upstairs to comfort the aggrieved Fukie.

"You spend time with them but not with me."

Although the little guy's jealousy wasn't as aggressive as Fu Jiang's, his nagging was far more intense.

"It's okay, I'm just a clone, you know. And I'm the kind of person who works tirelessly and obeys every command, like a dog—no, even less than a dog, a pet~"

In the bathtub, listening to Xiao Fujiang's yin-yang tale, Uta Kasyapa was both amused and exasperated.

Fortunately, Xiao Fujiang only complained a few times, because she knew that it was inappropriate for her to appear in public.

However, Xiao Fujiang's complaints made Uta Kasaya start to think about whether he should find a way to take the little one out with him.

To comfort Xiao Fujiang, Uta Kasaya stayed up late talking to her until she finally fell asleep.

The next day, Fukie yawned and struggled to get out of bed. She looked at Uta Kasyapa, who had already left and whose whereabouts were unknown, and pouted.

"Scumbag."

"Ha! You dare to utter that word?"

As the bedroom door was pushed open, Fu Jiang walked in with a cold smile. Little Fu Jiang glanced at her, too lazy to waste words with her.

"No one visits the temple without a reason. What brings you here, esteemed guest?"

They continued their sarcastic exchanges whenever they met. Little Fujiang wasn't afraid of what Fujiang might do to her; at worst, she would just grow up quickly and have a showdown with her.

Who is afraid of whom?
"So, what's the matter?"

Fujō sat in Uta Kasyapa's chair, picked up a pen, and twirled it quickly and nimbly between her fingertips.

"Go to the Inoue family's house."

"Huh? Are you crazy? How can I keep my promise to Kasyapa if I go to the Inoue family? We can grow up quickly, but that doesn't mean we can shrink!"

Fu Jiang glanced coldly at the clone upon hearing this.

"are you going?"

"Don't go!"

Seeing that Xiao Fujang refused, Fujang got up and came to the bedside to look down at the little thing leaning against the pillow, and Xiao Fujang met her gaze without fear.

After a long silence, Fu Jiang spoke first.

"Send a clone over there."

Why don't you do it yourself?

Before she could finish her rebuttal, Xiao Fujang frowned.

"Has a new evolution begun?"

Fu Jiang nodded and walked to the window to look at the distant sky.

"Which aspect is it this time?"

"do not know."

"Didn't you have any premonition at all?"

Fu Jiang didn't speak; silence was the best answer.

"We haven't died recently, so why would our abilities change?"

In silent contemplation, Fujang spoke softly.

"pollute."

"?"

Fu Jiang turned around and looked at the bewildered Xiao Fu Jiang, her eyes filled with a mixture of shy sweetness and helpless smile.

“Kasyapa is indeed special.”

The seemingly random remark made Xiao Fujang frown, but then something clicked in her mind. "That night!"

Xiao Fujang exclaimed in surprise, and Fujang nodded in agreement.

"But even with just that little bit, it's not even up to the average quality of a film."

He grabbed the eraser and threw it at her in a bad mood.

"You're bringing up footage shot in segments? Who in their right mind could do that? That's a lethal dose!"

Dodging Fujang's attack, little Fujang crossed her arms and rubbed her chin.

"But I still find it somewhat unbelievable. Kasyapa is just an ordinary person. How could he possibly contaminate us in reverse?"

Fujiang sat half-reclined on the table, looking down at the unfinished new chapter written by Utakayo, tracing the characters on it.

"Because he is special."

Fu Jiang's murmur made Xiao Fu Jiang fall into thought. Yes, unless it was something special, seeing that disgusting and repulsive scene every month was something else.

Either fall into the abyss of despair, or escape early.

"Although I cannot be completely certain whether it is Kasyapa's fault, I now know."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Fujang bit off her own finger and casually threw it on the floor.

In less than ten seconds, a completely new Fu Jiang appeared in the bedroom.

"Hello you all."

With a cold greeting, the newly born Fujang glanced indifferently at the two.

She went to Uta Kasyapa's wardrobe, randomly picked out a set of clothes she had left there, and threw them over. Fukie crossed her arms and looked at Fukie No. 3.

"Inoue Nosuke needs help from the Inoue family."

Fu Jiang No. 3 nodded. After synchronizing her memories, she naturally knew what she needed to do.

For some reason, I'm starting to miss the old days.

Looking at Fujiang, Fujiang No. 3 said something profound.

The old days?
He wants to replace me?

Fu Jiang sneered, showing utter disdain for Number Three's implied meaning.

"Sure, it's fine to start now."

A confident, unwavering voice came from Fu Jiang's mouth.

However, neither Number Three nor Xiao Fujiang acted recklessly. As fellow Fujiang, they knew very well that they had already evolved to an irreplaceable level.

Especially now that it is highly likely to be contaminated by Uta Kasyapa.
Where's the car?

"At the door."

Upon hearing this, No. 3 Fujiang stood up and walked out of the room with a cold face. However, just as she took a step out, Fujiang's voice suddenly came from behind.

"Make contact with the exorcist circle that Higa Haruko belongs to."

Upon hearing this, Fu Jiang No. 3 turned around with a sinister smile.

"I thought you would get along well with her sisters and be a close family."

Fu Jiang remained expressionless, showing no desire to answer.

Number Three, Fu Jiang, sneered and turned to leave the room.

At the entrance, Matsushima Yuko looked at Fujiang No. 3, who had changed her clothes.

"Oh my, why did you change your clothes? Isn't Xiao Jia home either?"

Number Three, Fu Jiang, glanced at her grandmother and rolled her eyes.

"They've been missing since early this morning, who knows where they've gone."

"Oh, I see. So, where are you going, Xiao Fujiang?"

"Grandma, what do you want me to bring you when you go out to play?"

"Hmm, let's buy some Taiyaki from Taiga for Grandma, she hasn't had it in a long time."

The thought that Taiyaki Island was nearly ten kilometers away and that Fujang would have to make a special trip there made Fujang No. 3 smile happily.

"Okay, Grandma, I'll buy it for you at noon."

In Uta Kasyapa's bedroom, Fukie's answer made her pause for a moment, and she looked down at her watch.

Don't eat pickled radishes!!!
