Horror/Fear Anime: Starting with a Tomie Hairstyle.

Jiuzhi Che pressed his hand to his forehead. Originally, he was investigating the stitching incident, but it turned out to involve Cai Zi.

Let's put aside Ayako's matter for now and focus on resolving the stitching issue.

So, the message soliciting suture videos was received by Takeo Saeki six months ago. What is the connection between this and Mount Wakayama University?

Could it be related to Satoshi Ishiguro, who died six months ago?

Sosuke Ishiguro cuts human body parts off and sews them back together. This sewing incident involves sewing together entire corpses. Although they are not completely identical, they are all sewed together, so there might be some connection.

Looks like I should go check out this school.

Before leaving, Jiuzhiche made a special check to see if there were any large-scale "coming-of-age" events.

Because the city's leader in the original story was very confident in the city's security and believed that it would not be attacked by the murderer, he still launched a large-scale gathering.

The final result was predictable: their arrogance led to the more than 500 people who participated in the coming-of-age ceremony being sewn into pieces of human flesh "cloth" and hung on trees in the mountains.

Fortunately, there have been no reports of a coming-of-age ceremony being held in Kawami City so far.

Jiuzhiche checked the time; it was time to meet his forum friends, so he got up and went out.

Seeing this, Tomie followed.

Jiuzhiche did not object.

Tomie has indeed been cooped up for too long lately. If we don't let her go out and get some fresh air, her emotions might hit rock bottom and rebound.

cafes.

A man with long hair that covered most of his face was already sitting down. Jiuzhi Che led Fujiang over.

"Mr. Watanabe?"

"It's me, hello, Michio Watanabe."

“Kyushichi Tetsu, my friend, Tomie.”

The two introduced themselves to each other.

Tomie glared at Kyuji Tetsu through her sunglasses.

Friend, a friend who's slept in the same bed?

Watanabe Michio didn't really look at Kyuichi Che and the others, but was immersed in his own emotions. "I didn't expect that you would actually come all the way here after I left a message on a website that I just randomly came across."

Jiuzhiche smiled faintly: "I'm just interested in paranormal events. I personally have a strong spirit of inquiry and exploration, and when I encounter these things, I really want to find out the truth."

“I have no other choice.” Michio Watanabe sighed helplessly. “Ever since the stitching murders happened, I’ve felt that something is wrong. To be honest, I’m very worried that the next body to be stitched up will be me.”

“Tell me what you know.”

Jiuzhi Che knew that Watanabe Michio was the protagonist of the short manga "Sinners Are All Lonely," and that he had seen more than the average person.

The original novel describes cases across the country where multiple bodies were sewn together. The only knowledge is that people cannot gather together, otherwise they will collectively disappear within a certain area and eventually become cold corpses.

As for the specific source of this strange event and its solution, I'm sorry, there isn't one.

Now that he knows about this, Jiuzhiche has to try to resolve it; if he can't, he'll run away.

Michio Watanabe took out a portable radio. "It's time. Every day at this time, if you tune to AM1444khz, you'll hear a special broadcast."

As Watanabe Michio adjusted the radio, after some FM noise, the sound gradually became clearer.

"Lonely, too lonely to be alone, sinners are all lonely."

"Open your heart and connect with everyone. We are all friends. Let's hold hands and gather together."

The voice was so soft and indistinct that it was neither male nor female; the mixed tone, combined with the static of the radio, made it indescribably unpleasant to listen to.

My ears hurt, and I feel uncomfortable too.

And these were the very words that were repeatedly played on the radio.

Michio Watanabe turned off the radio. "It usually lasts for about ten minutes."

Jiuzhiche noticed that when that audio was played on the radio, it emitted an ominous aura.

It disappeared after the audio was turned off.

"Is there any way to find out which radio station broadcast the audio?" Jiuzhi Che picked up his coffee, which Tomie had just added a lot of sugar for him.

He took a sip; it was very sweet.

It's confirmed. Tomie wants to make him swoon with sweetness.

Tomie noticed that Kyuusei Tetsu remained expressionless and curled her lip in disbelief.

Michio Watanabe shook his head: "No, it won't work. Putting aside whether this is a local radio station or not, there are many radio stations in this city."

When did this broadcast start?

"About half a year ago, I remember there was a case of a female college student stitching up her body. The murderer was found and died. I thought it was the end, but I didn't expect it to be a new beginning. There were more and more cases of bodies stitching up."

Michio Watanabe's tone was full of emotion.

Jiuzhiche: "When I heard this, I felt like I really wanted to find someone to be with."

"Yes, I think the people behind the radio station are trying to lure us into gathering."

Watanabe Michio said sadly, "Mr. Kujiro, that's how it is. I really hope to find the mastermind behind this, but I don't want you to be involved in this life-threatening situation. Please think carefully about whether you want to continue the investigation."

His fear was never about dying, but about her...

The most important person in his life.

When he was isolated, she was the one who was willing to approach him and accept him.

He just hoped she would be alright.

Although she is getting married now, the person she's marrying isn't him.

“Things are getting more and more interesting. I will continue to investigate, Mr. Watanabe. Please contact me if you have any leads.”

Jiu Zhiche portrayed a paranormal enthusiast so convincingly that he seemed genuinely interested.

After leaving the coffee shop, Tomie took Kujiro's hand and said, "I really don't know why you're so keen on finding weirdos and ghosts."

Jiu Zhiche said in a serious tone: "Because I love peace."

"Pah!" Tomie spat at him.

"Look ahead, there are a lot of people, let's go take a look."

Soon, Tomie was drawn to a group of people gathered around something and pulled Kyuichi Che to join them.

When did you become so curious?

"Please, you're the one investigating this weird stuff. When you encounter something, you have to get involved. Maybe you'll find some clues."

Tomie spoke with great confidence and knowledge.

She grabbed Jiu Zhiche's hand, pulled it into her bosom, and dragged him over to join the fun.

Chapter 63 Let's Gather! Everyone, let's gather! It's too lonely to be alone!

Sometimes when Tomie is acting normally, she's actually pretty normal.

It was as if Jiuzhi Che saw the image of Tomie, who had never died.

Back then, Tomie would joke with him and tell him funny stories. She was cute and mischievous like a little girl. It was because of this that Kyuichi Tsukushi, who hadn't yet awakened his inner wisdom, was attracted to her.

If it weren't for what happened with Hashimoto Yoshi, their situation would probably be very different now.

Once they reached the edge of the crowd, Jiu Zhiche and the others easily made their way inside.

The crowd seemed to be dispersing and retreating.

This is a pit, and there are not just one corpse, but eight corpses lying inside. They are all naked and have been sewn together irregularly. Feet are sewn to waists, waists to heads, heads to hands, hands to feet, and the corners of their mouths are all sewn together but are open, stretched into a quadrilateral shape.

There was no blood or other injuries.

Of course, it's not much easier to accept than a bloody mess.

Jiuzhiche noticed a faint resentment on the corpse, much less than that of those who died unjustly.

The stitching of these few bodies together was just the beginning. The increasing number of bodies being stitched together indicates that this phenomenon and situation will become more and more serious.

Could it also be a curse?

Jiuzhiche silently threw the purification over.

The mental energy consumption was not high.

"The body moved!!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

Jiuzhiche noticed that the thread connecting two of the corpses had broken, and the pulling force had disappeared, making it seem as if the corpses had moved.

It actually works.

Tomie had no interest in the corpse; she had already looked away and turned her gaze toward Kyuichi Che. When she heard the words "the corpse moved," she knew that Kyuichi Che was up to something.

Suddenly, as if she had noticed something, she looked up slightly at the sky.

"Ah Che, up in the sky."

Jiu Zhiche looked up and saw many flyers falling from the sky. Several of them floated near him, and he picked one up at random.

Above it is a bold, highlighted title: Sinners are all lonely gatherings.

Content: Let's gather! Everyone, let's gather! Being alone is too lonely. We're all friends! Let's hold hands, open our hearts, and connect with each other!

It highly overlaps with the content of the radio broadcast.

Jiuzhiche had carefully observed the sky and found no drones or airplanes flying overhead.

But some hazy traces could be seen flitting through the air.

Unseen ghosts?

No, it was a ghost with such a faint aura that it vanished immediately after scattering the flyers.

What the hell? Do they treat ghosts like disposable items?

"Tomie, you go back to the hotel first, I'll go check out the bar."
