However, that's a niche concept, and it's highly unlikely to appear in this strange world.

But we should still be careful.

Miura Tomoka and Yamamura Sadako chatted about work for a while, and the topic naturally shifted to Kyushige Tetsu: "Kyushige-kun, you agreed to come and have dinner with us, which means you intend to be friends with us, so why aren't you saying anything?"

She blinked: "Or are you embarrassed? After all, our Sadako is so beautiful, many people feel uncomfortable talking to her!"

Jiuzhi Che politely declined such overly familiar people who liked to pair people up. He put down his teacup and smiled, "Yes, I feel quite pressured sitting with two beautiful women."

"Haha, that guy's big mouth is so sweet. How can I compare to Sadako's beauty?" Miura Tomoka laughed first, then asked curiously, "Kyushiki-kun should still be in school, right?"

"Yes, I'm a freshman."

"Youth is in full bloom! I bet Jiuzhi is very popular at school! He must have had enough girlfriends to circle Yunshu University three times over!"

"Three laps?" Jiuzhi Che shook his head. "You underestimate me. Three hundred million laps is more like it."

"Pfft, hahahahaha!" Miura Tomoka laughed loudly, but the girl was naturally outgoing and straightforward, and her smile was not offensive.

"Okay, I'm going to the restroom."

Tomoka Miura stood up and whispered to Sadako, "Sadako, why don't you talk to him more? Doesn't the experience of acting include interacting with the opposite sex?"

After saying that, she winked mischievously at Sadako and went to the bathroom.

Sadako's smile faded; she found it difficult to relax in front of people she didn't know well.

She struck up a conversation with him earlier because she didn't understand the purpose behind Jiu Zhiche's actions.

Without Tomoka Miura acting as a mediator, she doesn't feel like talking much.

Actually, they didn't talk much just now; it was mostly Tomoka Miura who did the talking.

"We met once before."

"?"

Sadako was somewhat surprised, but she had to admit she was a little curious.

If she had seen it before, she would definitely remember it.

After all, the other person was exceptionally beautiful, the kind of person you couldn't forget after just one glance.

"You were crying then."

"!"

Sadako suddenly remembered that in order to study emotions more deeply, she had specifically gone to a place to help people mourn at funerals; she thought it was called Tombstone Town...

Was he there at the time?

“I know that family, so I went to check on them. I even saw you at the intersection later. I never expected to run into you again this time.”

If word got out, it could be turned into a romance novel, except this is the horror version.

Sadako understood. So, they were indeed destined to be together.

She came here to experience the joyful emotions and learn from A-gei and Hong-dou's performance, but after seeing it in person, she decided it was better not to watch it.

Their performance was absolutely terrible.

I don't know why so many people were amused, but she couldn't laugh at all.

"I was there to experience emotions." Sadako blushed slightly as she talked about this. It would have been fine if she hadn't known him, but now that she did, she felt a little embarrassed.

Do you enjoy performing?

"It's alright."

Actually, she's currently working part-time as a theater troupe, but there's no need to tell the other party, since they're not familiar with each other yet.

Sadako has a stronger sense of boundaries than most people.

"I'm quite interested in the location shooting you're going to do the day after tomorrow. I wonder if I could come along?"

Jiuzhi Che heard from them that they were going to film a paranormal program in a haunted house, and they had even invited Harase Kyoko, who is known as the "Queen of Ghosts," as a guest on the program.

Kyoko Harase is also the protagonist of a small chapter in the original Ju-on manga.

She's no ordinary main character; she's Kayako's mother!

In the original story, Kayako was reincarnated through her womb. When she was about 4 years old, little Kayako showed her sinister side and pushed Harase Kyoko off the rooftop, causing her death!

As for why she reincarnated, it's simple. Kayako originally had a certain quality similar to a bound spirit, and her activity was limited to that haunted house. She could only kill those who went to the house and were tainted by the curse. But if she had a physical body and could move freely in the world, wouldn't she be able to spread the curse freely?

Putting aside whether Kayako was actually in the haunted house where they were filming the show, Jiuzhiche couldn't rest easy knowing that Sadako was going there.

Of course, he didn't fall in love with her. He didn't want to see Sadako die and merge with Black Sadako, which would create another heavyweight ghost!

"Well... you'll probably have to ask Tomohisa."

Sadako cannot make decisions for her friends.

"You're going too? That's great!"

Miura Tomoka walked up from behind and overheard Kyuuji Tetsu's question. She was overjoyed and said, "Actually, I've been thinking that we have a beautiful girl, but we're still missing a handsome man. It would be best if you, Kyuuji-kun, were willing to go!"

Jiuzhi Che smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you."

The most normal character in Chapter 83 is Sadako.

The streetlights on both sides of the street were so bright that they illuminated the surrounding area as if it were daytime.

Only one narrow path seemed to be swallowed by deathly silence; the brighter the light, the heavier the eerie quiet became, making it hard to breathe.

"Da da da—"

The two women moved quickly through the alley in silence.

Their expressions revealed a solemnity.

"Hey, do we really have to rush?"

"That man, he's coming for us!"

"But we have so many spirits, and our career at the TV station is just starting out. We're about to become famous nationwide. If we leave now..."

"What a pity."

Hongdou trembled and stopped in her tracks. Just now, it wasn't any of them who had responded.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of the alley without making a sound. The end of the alley seemed to be shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to see clearly.

"It's such a pity you haven't left yet; you can't leave now."

The figure moved forward, and the surrounding darkness moved along with it.

A-ge, pulling Hong-dou along, cried out in terror, "Run! Run!"

"laugh--"

A muffled tearing sound rang out, and the strength in A-ge's hand suddenly sank. She turned around in a daze, only to find that she was holding onto Hongdou's upper body; her lower body was still rooted to the spot...

The gushing blood stained the ground red, and with a "thud," his lower body fell to the ground.

A-ge stared wide-eyed, his teeth chattering. He disregarded everything else and desperately released all his spiritual entities. Countless illusory spiritual entities surged out and rushed towards the figure.

Please, just stop it for a moment!

Ah Ge prayed silently, running forward with all his might—

But he suddenly stopped, as if the blood in his body had instantly frozen.

The figure had appeared in front of her at some point, its appearance obscured by darkness.

Those spirits couldn't even hold out for a second.

The figure raised its hand, and an invisible hand gripped A-gei's neck, tightening its grip little by little.

"Click".

A dull thud rang out as her neck bones cracked. A-Gei's head lolled to one side, and an invisible hand grabbed her hair, tearing her scalp and half her face off...

She hadn't completely stopped breathing when an invisible force snapped her limbs at bizarre angles...

"thump."

A body lay limp and lifeless in a pool of blood; to be precise, it resembled a crushed doll.

The alleyway fell silent.

Maybe it was one minute, maybe it was ten minutes.

A man walked into the alley.

He witnessed the horrific scene before him, his face filled with regret.

"My spirituality, isn't this a waste?"

After separating from Zhenzi and the others, Jiuzhiche prepared to ambush Age and Hongdou. Since they harbored malice and posed a risk of making countless people laugh to death, Jiuzhiche naturally would not let them live.

Unexpectedly, we were still a step too late.

It's unclear whether the attacker was human or a monster; their methods were extremely cruel, and their strength was beyond that of ordinary people.

Most importantly, stealing other people's kills.

"What a pity."

Jiuzhi Che missed the opportunity to gain spirituality.

The spirits that purified Age Red Bean didn't even qualify as spiritual entities, indicating that those spirits weren't even considered separate entities; at most, they served a minor purpose.

No, also, they are not actually strange, they are just people with special abilities.

Otherwise, why wouldn't there be any prompt to acquire initial spirituality?

He shook his head and left the scene.

Twin apartments.

Jiuzhiche brought back the latest newspaper, which he had specially subscribed to. Since the internet wasn't very developed back then, it was actually faster to learn about some gossip through newspapers.

Online media primarily report on major events.

For example, the serial murder case of a high school girl in Kawami City and the serial stitching murder case were both sensational news stories.
