"It's just that Sakurai is lucky; it just so happens that we found the right choice."

"Because it has initially acquired the spiritual power of a tsukumogami, it has a much larger internal space reserve than its external space. Not only that, it can also absorb the essence of the human world to grow further."

"Given enough time and opportunity, I might one day become a true tsukumogami."

"In short, this is a rare and wonderful thing."

"Consider this a return gift for the diary you gave to Kayako, Sakurai-kun."

As he spoke, the bartender rather flippantly shoved the shoulder bag into Sakurai's hand.

Of course...

In fact, the value of this level of storage item is far greater than the small backpack that Sakurai prepared for Little Night Snack before.

Even with the bartender's connections, it would still take some effort to find and obtain it in a short period of time.

But...

worth it.

For the bartender.

Since Sakurai is so supportive, even the bartender has to do something in return.

He was, after all, the head of the Tokyo area, so he had some connections.

I can't lose face in front of Sakurai-kun.

The bartender watched with a smile as Sakurai slung the shoulder bag over his shoulder, his eyes narrowing into slits.

"Thanks, you shady merchant."

"Let's get back to the main topic. I'm very interested in that supernatural game you mentioned called 'Happy Sachiko.' Tell me more about it."

Glancing at the restless little girl who was squirming, Sakurai still went along with the girl's wishes and began to discuss the main purpose of their visit.

"Of course, we've made the most thorough preparations possible."

With his eyes narrowed to slits, the bartender looked exactly like a fox that had just eaten some sesame oil.

......

Legend has it that there is an elementary school in the suburbs of Tokyo called Tenjin Elementary School.

One rainy day after school, a female teacher fell down the stairs and died tragically.

At that time, the school principal cared for the school as if it were his own child.

Unfortunately, tragic stories followed one after another.

A murder that occurred one day prompted him to finally decide to close the school.

The principal, who had been utterly despondent since then, committed suicide by jumping from the roof of the teaching building on the very day the school was closed.

A few years later, the abandoned Tenjin Elementary School was demolished and replaced by a brand new high school.

The name of this school is Kisaragi Academy.

It is said that the teacher who fell down the stairs did not realize he was dead. Ever since the new school building was rebuilt, he has been said to still wander around the school building after school on rainy days...

It is very dangerous to stay at school after 7 p.m.

It's said that the school building will suddenly lose power and become pitch black, and then the teacher will appear and give a friendly reminder: "Aren't you—home—yet—already—going—home—now? Hurry—up!"

Today is the annual cultural festival of Kisaragi Academy.

The seven students from Class 9 of Grade 2, consisting of three boys and four girls, were packing their belongings in the college.

Not long after, at the suggestion of the class representative of Class 2-9 named Ayumi Shinozaki, ghost stories were told.

They closed the door, lit a candle, and the seven people sat in a circle around it.

Now, without us even realizing it, it's already seven o'clock.

"When that teacher is in reality, the teaching building will definitely be pitch black due to a power outage."

The flickering candlelight illuminated the faces of the seven young boys and girls. A girl named Shinozaki Ayumi deliberately lowered her voice and began to recount the past stories of this academy.

"Immediately afterwards, there will be a knocking sound on the door, followed by a hissing sound as the previously closed door opens."

A pale face peeked out from between the classroom doors and a drawn-out voice asked, "Haven't you gone back yet?"

Under the watchful eyes of the tense or uneasy boys and girls, Ayumi Shinozaki spoke in a low voice.

【Dong Dong Dong】

There was a knock on the tightly closed front door.

"Did someone knock on the door just now?"

With a gurgling sound, one of the three boys was visibly startled and looked uncertainly at his companions.

"It must be...it's just my imagination."

Equally startled, she instinctively moved a little closer to the person next to her.

One of the four girls responded softly to the other.

The knocking on the door started again, and perhaps because the window wasn't closed properly, the only light source in the classroom, the flickering candle, suddenly went out.

Wisps of smoke rose from the candle wick, and the classroom was instantly filled with panicked screams.

"Shinozaki, that smile is way too wide."

The boy, suppressing his panic, glared at the spot where the class monitor, who loved telling ghost stories, was standing. He blamed everything on the monitor's mischievous pranks.

"It's not me."

Shinozaki, equally startled, raised her voice to retort.

"Honestly, it's so dark, I can't find the candle at all."

Because they were too frightened to react immediately, one of the remaining three girls couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.

"Where is the light switch?"

As the only light source in the classroom disappeared, the already uneasy people panicked and raised their voices.

"The switch is right next to the door."

The boy answered her question, but...

In this situation, how could anyone possibly be willing to run to the door to turn on the light?

64. Once we finish this game, we'll be friends forever!

Fear and unease, no matter how much you tell yourself that ghosts and monsters don't exist in reality.

However, the disorientation and absurdity of this horror story reflecting reality still made the seven people present panic.

Just as the seven people were in a panic and had no idea what to do, a hand pulled open the tightly closed sliding door a crack with a hissing sound.

The unease and fear in the classroom reached their peak at this moment.

"Haven't you gone back yet?"

Such a deliberately lowered, sinister female voice reached their ears.

A sharp, piercing scream erupted, followed by panicked and incoherent screams.

With a click, the light that was off turned on.

"Are you scared?"

Under the bright lights, a woman with short light brown hair, wearing a white coat and a mini panda pendant, walked in with her hands on her hips, smiling at the seven people.

The woman's name is Shishido Yui, and she is twenty-three years old.

She is the current assistant homeroom teacher of Class 9, Grade 2 at Kisaragi Academy, and a newly appointed English teacher who just passed her teacher certification this year.

She has an outgoing personality, and although her teaching quality needs improvement since she just graduated, she strives to teach better every day.

Incidentally, he's surprisingly naive.

"Why haven't you gone home yet? Didn't I tell you?"

"You should head home early after you've packed up your things for the cultural festival."

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Shishido Yui stood with her hands on her hips, looking at everyone with a somewhat helpless expression.

As a teacher, she was at her wits' end with these disobedient students.

Especially when all of these students are good students.

"elder brother."

Before anyone could speak, a little boy with an umbrella timidly peeked out from behind Shishido Yui and called out to one of the three boys, a boy with short, brown hair.

"Yuka?"

"How did you come?"

In the darkness, in his panic, Tetsushi Mochida accidentally grabbed Naomi Nakajima's breasts and was somewhat caught off guard.

"It seems to be here to deliver an umbrella to Mochida?"

Yui Shishido walked into the classroom one after the other with Yuka Mochida.

"That's it, thank you."

He smiled and looked at his younger sister. As a doting brother, nothing made him happier than his sister's concern for him.

"What? Is it Tetsuji's sister?"

Is it for the junior high school section?

Looking ahead, Naomi Nakajima, who has known Tetsushi Mochida since junior high school, is meeting Mochida's sister for the first time.

"Nice to meet you, I am Yuka Mochida."

“My brother is usually well taken care of by everyone.”
