Horror/Fear Anime: Starting with a Tomie Hairstyle.

After using his "handsome man" charm on Tomie, Jiuzhi Che finished washing up and lay down on the bed.

After thinking for a while, it suddenly dawned on him that he remembered something he had overlooked during the day.

During the day, Kayako didn't have any medicine on her, and when she left with him later, she didn't go to the clinic again.

What if she catches a cold?

Jiu Zhiche sent her a text message:

Kayako, it seems you haven't received your medicine yet. Has your cold gotten any worse?

On the other side, Kayako, feeling dizzy and lightheaded, was wrapped tightly in a blanket, trying to sweat it out and cure her cold.

She did a lot of mental preparation before going to the hospital today, and now she doesn't have the courage to go to the pharmacy to get her medicine, mainly because... she doesn't have the energy.

She probably has a fever.

"Ding dong~"

Did she hear wrong? The voice sounded a little familiar.

It seems to be a sound that appears when making purchases with a bank card, receiving notifications for phone bill top-ups, or when there are discount promotions.

Kayako struggled to reach out from under the covers, picked up her phone, her eyes widened suddenly, and her voice cracked: "Che! It's a text from Che!"

She read it with great reverence, as if it were a priceless treasure.

A moment later, she typed a reply.

"Ding dong~"

Jiuzhiche opened the text message.

Kayako: I'm fine, Jiuzhi, thank you for your concern.

Jiuzhiche: Did you buy any more cold medicine after that?

Kayako: No, but I covered myself with a blanket and it felt much better.

Jiuzhiche: If you feel unwell, remember to buy medicine.

Kayako: I'll listen to what Jiuzhi says.

Jiu Zhiche put down his phone. It was the first time he'd ever acted like a warm-hearted guy, and he wasn't very good at it.

Does that mean it would be better for me to take care of you now?

Looking at the pitch black outside, Jiu Zhiche gave up the idea. The chances of encountering strange things or ghosts were much higher when traveling far away at night.

He wanted to deal with the supernatural to gain spirituality, but that didn't include fighting unknown battles.

Kayako clutched her phone to her chest, her face growing even redder, "Che, Che..."

She wrapped herself in the blanket again, hoping to get better quickly so she could message Che again...

The scene before him spun around him, and Jiu Zhiche knew he was dreaming again.

It was the same familiar house, with the same familiar furnishings.

The house of curse.

No, is he really locked in a life-or-death struggle with Ju-on?

Couldn't you dream a little less sinister?

Jiuzhiche appeared directly inside the house this time. He walked into the living room and found a child sitting on the sofa, who was the normal version of Junxiong.

Junxiong's eyes were glazed over, and his legs kept lifting up and down, slapping the sofa, making a "pat-pat" sound that echoed in the quiet room.

On the table were several children's doodles. Each one had messy lines and you could only vaguely make out that it was a person. The colors were all bright red and black, with no earthy colors at all.

"Where's your mother?" Jiuzhiche slapped Junxiong on the head.

Junxiong didn't react much to the slap, mechanically replying, "Mom's in a big plastic bag, playing hide-and-seek."

"Can't this child speak properly?"

Jiuzhi Che slapped again, and this time Junxiong suddenly turned his head and looked at Jiuzhi Che expressionlessly: "Dad, don't hit Mom anymore, it hurts."

Jiuzhi Che nodded: "Of course, I'll beat you up in the future."

Toshio: "..."

Suddenly, Junxiong jumped off the sofa and ran upstairs: "Mom is calling me."

The little brat ran very fast, and Jiu Zhiche didn't want to just stand there waiting for the plot to unfold, so he chased after it. Just as he saw Junxiong turn onto the second floor, and Jiu Zhiche was about to turn as well, a black cat jumped from the second floor to the corner of the stairs and almost bumped into Jiu Zhiche.

"Meow--"

The black cat had its eerie green eyes wide open, its pupils gleaming with a cold light, giving it an indescribably sinister and eerie appearance.

Its meows weren't as cute as normal kittens'; they were low and hoarse, as if they were foreshadowing something.

In the original work, whenever a black cat appears, Toshio will almost always appear as well.

"Meow--"

The black cat jumped away, and Jiu Zhiche looked back. When his gaze returned, he caught sight of the second-floor window. That's right, there was a second-floor window in this house. It could be seen from the first floor. The glass seemed to be made of frosted material, but that didn't affect the human-shaped shadow that was now visible.

A shadow loomed close to the window, revealing a pale, expressionless face with eyes glancing downwards, meeting Jiu Zhiche's gaze.

Chapter 54: Crush your heart, achieve immortality, and even have self-healing.

How many people can truly confront the shadows of their childhood?

"Boom!"

Jiuzhiche quickened his pace as he went upstairs.

He knew it was a dream. Facing childhood trauma more often helps improve mental resilience, so this wasn't a nightmare, but an opportunity for trial!

Anyway, it's not a real grudge. Although it looks very real and has a strong sense of horror, a dream is a dream and it won't come true!

The figure in the window disappeared.

Jiuzhi Che had just climbed a few steps when he reached the area where he could see the railing at the top of the stairs to the second floor. The wooden railing stood upright with a hollow center. Junxiong gripped the wooden bars of the railing with both hands, his pale face hidden in the shadows, his eyes dark and heavy, as he looked down.

In a short while, Junxiong had changed his appearance; his upper body clothes had disappeared, and his entire body was as pale as a corpse.

Upon seeing Jiuzhi Che's figure, Junxiong opened his mouth, forming a large oval shape, silent and terrified.

"Damn it, you just wait!"

He wasn't scared, but this brat seemed to be provoking him!

Jiuzhiche took three steps up to the second floor, and Junxiong immediately turned around, ran into a room, and slammed the door shut.

There are three rooms on the second floor: a study and two bedrooms. Jiuzhiche opened the door to the room where Junxiong had gone in.

It's the bedroom.

The room was also in a mess, with clothes and trash piled together, as if some fight had taken place.

The air fell silent once more.

Jiuzhiche could clearly hear his own breathing and the slight scraping sound of his feet on the floor; other than that, there was no other sound.

Fear tends to fester in absolute silence.

If a place is left with only its own sounds, isn't that another form of absolute silence?

Jiuzhiche felt a chill run down his spine. Even though there was no wind, goosebumps rose on his skin.

He turned around abruptly—

A face filled with extreme resentment was pressed against Jiu Zhiche's shoulder, with long black hair covering most of the face. Because he turned his head, Jiu Zhiche almost bumped his mouth into the other person's forehead.

"Purify!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiuzhiche used Purification.

In less than a second, he felt a sense of emptiness.

The stronger the target being purified, the greater the mental energy consumed.

It truly lives up to its T0 status, even in a dream.

Fortunately, the purification had some effect, and "Kayako's" figure paused for a moment.

The next moment, she continued walking towards Jiu Zhiche.

After confronting "Kayako" directly, Jiuzhi Che finally understood why the top demon was top-tier.

She exuded a strong aura of resentment at all times; she did nothing, yet the air turned cold before she even did anything.

It wasn't a single kind of resentment, but rather a collection of the world's most bitter, hateful, and evil emotions, tightly intertwined, so intense that it was impossible to distinguish whether it was a chill or the materialization of malice itself.

When she stares at you, your body will tremble involuntarily with fear—it's the most primal human instinct—and you'll clearly realize one thing—you can't escape!

Ordinary people would be paralyzed by the malicious impact if they saw this, but Jiuzhiche has a demonic eye and can see and perceive much more.

In that instant, his brain felt as if it were being crushed, as if many tiny feet were frantically stomping on it, trying to break his nerves.

"Well......"

Jiuzhiche forced himself to turn his head and look away. He couldn't look anymore; if he did, his brain would explode.

Don't faint!

cannot!!!

He stared intently at the doorway, then suddenly rushed over. He ran downstairs, stumbling and falling, and just as he reached the first floor, a small, pale hand reached out—

They're going to trip up Jiuzhiche!

Jiuzhi Che wasn't going to tolerate this brat. He grabbed his arm, lifted him up, and slapped him across the face: "If I can't handle Kayako, I can handle you!"

It's a pity the system can't be brought in, otherwise, if I had gotten the Spirit Orb from the lottery, I wouldn't have used up all my spiritual energy at once.

"Gudong!"

After throwing Junxiong, who had been slapped a few times, aside, Jiuzhiche went downstairs.

He grabbed the doorknob, twisted it, but couldn't open it.

However, my brain has calmed down now, and I even feel a slight coolness. Could it be the effect of the enhanced mental strength?
