I slept without any dreams.

The Tomie has already grown halfway and is not suitable for taking out.

After refusing Tomie's request to go out for some fresh air, Kujikichi prepared to go to school.

Of course, it's not about going to class obediently.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Shimizu Mari standing at the door raising her hand to ring the doorbell.

Shimizu Mari was carrying a bento box in her other hand. She immediately smiled when she saw him. "Kyushige-kun, thank you for helping me yesterday. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."

In a sense, he did save her life.

In the original story, she was pulled into the small bathroom drain by the water pipe.

She was an ordinary person, and her fate was self-evident.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

After accepting the lunchbox, Jiu Zhiche didn't bother with any pleasantries, exchanged a few words, and then left.

A hint of disappointment appeared on Shimizu Mari's face: "He's handsome, polite, and gives off a sense of security, but why is there always a distance between us..."

Inside the room, Tomie sneered, "A toad trying to eat swan meat... wait, is Kujikichi a goose?"

Tomie was amused by her own analogy, and she was delighted to imagine Kyuichi Che flapping his wings and rushing towards her.

As she laughed, she noticed her T-shirt again and pursed her lips: "My taste is absolutely terrible. This kind of plain, unadorned clothing doesn't suit me!"

She pulled up the clothes with dissatisfaction, becoming more and more disgusted with them. If Jiu Zhiche hadn't forced her to wear them, she wouldn't have even touched them; just looking at them was an eyesore.

"Hmph, if you want me to wear your clothes, just say so. Everyone has a bit of possessiveness."

Thinking of this, fewer people were disgusted by the wonder of the milk. Tomie, as if she had won a great victory, raised her eyebrows slightly and then drank the rest of the milk in one gulp.

Hmm? Did you put sugar in the milk today?

After Jiu Zhiche left the house, he walked very slowly, observing to see if anyone was following him.

He still remembered that woman who was like a light bulb in the sky. Whether she coveted his body or his flesh, he couldn't let himself be in a passive position.

After observing for a moment, it was confirmed that the woman with the light bulb was not there.

She'd better not get any closer, or Jiu Zhiche will put her on the enemy list.

The woman's gaze was strange; it didn't seem like infatuation with his looks, but rather like she wanted to peel him apart like an onion...

Hashimoto Yoshi's experience taught him not to gamble on someone's madness, or he might lose his own life.

Upon arriving at the classroom, Jiu Zhiche instinctively reached for his pen to play with, but couldn't find the pen he had left there yesterday.

"It fell to the ground?"

Jiuzhiche didn't care; who hasn't lost a few pens during their student days?

Out of the corner of his eye, Jiu Zhiche caught sight of his taciturn deskmate. He couldn't help but wonder, her head was almost buried in the desk. What was wrong? Was she cursed? Possessed by a female ghost?

However, it would be strange if Jiu Zhiche didn't have something odd about him.

After all, this classmate was the only one in the whole class who hadn't been infected with the Long Dream Curse.

She must have some extraordinary qualities.

There were textbooks on her desk with what appeared to be a few neatly written characters, which must have been her name.

"Sichuan......"

Because his deskmate's hand was blocking part of the view, Jiu Zhiche wanted to turn slightly to see the full name.

"Alright, today's chapter is..."

On the podium, Mr. Takagi was lecturing loudly. This interruption prevented Kyuichi from succeeding, because his deskmate leaned forward a little, seemingly preparing to listen attentively.

After class.

Jiuzhi Che approached Teacher Takagi, "Teacher, I noticed that Tian-kun didn't come to class today. Is he feeling unwell?"

Takagi glanced at Kyuichi Che with surprise. He had assumed the new transfer student was the cold and closed-off type, but he hadn't expected him to be so thoughtful.

"He was sick, so he took a long leave of absence."

"What? He's so pitiful, teacher? Didn't the class send a representative to visit Xiang Tian?"

Faced with Jiuzhi Che's concerned gaze, Takagi-sensei's lips twitched inexplicably. Hmm, something felt off.

"Well... that's a plan, but once I've identified a suitable candidate, then..."

"Teacher, time waits for no one. Xiang Tian must be very lonely in the hospital and really wants someone to visit him. Teacher, what does it mean that I've come to our class?"

"What does that mean?" Takagi blurted out instinctively.

"It must be fate that allowed me to represent my classmates in visiting Xiang Tian. Not only will I bring him care, but I'll also have the opportunity to further integrate into our class, teacher!"

"Huh? Oh, then how about you..."

"Okay, teacher. Thank you for your hard work, teacher. Please call and tell Xiangtian so he can be happy in advance."

"..."

After notifying Tetsuro Mukoda that someone from his class would visit him, Takagi put down his phone, but still felt something was off.

Jiuzhi... he's actually so kind-hearted!

Mr. Takagi smiled. As the homeroom teacher and counselor, he was quite pleased to see everyone being harmonious and friendly.

"Knock knock knock".

"Come in."

Looking at the girl nicknamed "Invisible Person," Ms. Takagi said helplessly, "What's wrong? Tell me."

The girl whispered, "Teacher, my father has suddenly fallen ill, and I would like to ask for leave for two class periods..."

Yamada Hospital.

Hospitals have always been places where paranormal events frequently occur; it's not uncommon for all sorts of strange and unusual things to happen.

Jiuzhiche didn't see anything too strange in the area he looked at, but occasionally he saw some gray mottled marks on the walls and ceiling, which disappeared after a while.

Occasionally, there are fleeting, ghostly silhouettes in the corridor; those might be the spirits of those who died in the hospital.

Fortunately, Jiuzhiche only saw the strange sight for a short while.

But in the ward next to Mukoda Tetsuro's, Kyushige Tetsu glanced again; it seemed to exude an ominous aura.

This is a private room, which Dr. Kuroda arranged specifically for me.

Tetsuro Mukoda lay on the hospital bed, his face bruised, his eyes dark, his eye sockets red and swollen, and his face haggard, as if he had been crying for a while.

"Xiang Tian, ​​I am Jiu Zhiche, and I am here on behalf of your classmates to visit you and wish you a speedy recovery."

Jiu Zhiche, carrying a fruit basket he'd bought on sale, smiled and said, "You don't look well. Didn't you sleep well?"

Tetsuro Mukoda looked a little awkward: "Thank you, I guess I'm just not used to the new environment."

This must be the new transfer student. He's actually representing everyone here. He doesn't remember ever interacting with him.

If Mr. Takagi hadn't called to inform him, he wouldn't have wanted to talk to any unfamiliar classmates.

I simply don't have the mood or the energy.

"Yes, I completely understand. I just moved here recently, and isn't it strange that I've had nightmares for two nights in a row? It was only one night, but it felt like several days had passed. I guess I'm just not used to it yet."

Upon hearing this, Tetsuro Mukoda's face turned deathly pale, and he exclaimed in shock, "W-what did you say? You had a nightmare too?"

Jiuzhiche asked curiously, "Also? Did you have a nightmare too? I heard my classmates talking about it, and they also found it strange because they all had very scary nightmares at night."

At this point, Jiuzhi Che asked in confusion, "Xiang Tian, ​​you seem a bit off. What's wrong? Is there some kind of explanation for this nightmare?"

He was like an ordinary classmate who was curious and asked a question, while also being a little worried about his own emotions.

Tetsuro Mukoda said with a bitter face, "It's me. I've gotten myself into a curse I shouldn't have!"

"Oh?"

About two weeks ago, I...

"Ahhh! Help! Don't come any closer!"

Just as Jiu Zhiche was about to get an answer, a commotion came from the hospital corridor. A woman was running in a panic, as if desperately trying to escape something behind her.
