Horror/Fear Anime: Starting with a Tomie Hairstyle.

"coming."

Sadako looked away, a pang of reluctance crossing her heart.

"Jiuzhi, have some water."

Kayako jogged over. Although she had done some exercise, she hadn't broken a sweat. Her hair was slightly disheveled, and she didn't dare look at Jiuzhi Che. Instead, she looked down, and what she saw made her face instantly turn red.

Are you hot?

Jiuzhi Che reached out and touched Kayako's forehead, feeling that her temperature was a bit high. Hmm, it's even higher now.

Kayako's eyes darted around, unsure what to do. "N-no, it's nothing, I-I-I'm fine!!"

"I'll chill it for you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kayako felt the cool water bottle pressed against her forehead, and the lingering heat dissipated by more than half.

A slightly ticklish laugh landed by her ear, making her earlobe feel warm.

"Slow down, you'll get heatstroke, okay?"

"Yes..." Kayako almost couldn't help but lick her lips. "I understand."

Seeing that her complexion had cooled down, Jiu Zhiche took down the water bottle, unscrewed it, and took a big gulp.

"I... I'll carry it for you."

"Here."

Kayako received the bottle of water and smiled happily.

Several classes were running around there. Jiuzhiche looked over and saw Sadako's figure.

Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow. Next to Sadako was Tanaka Chizuru!

The crucial point is that Tanaka Chizuru was swaying precariously, her face as pale as paper, and it was clear that she was about to collapse!

When willpower reaches a certain critical point, that is when it collapses!

Tanaka Chizuru collapsed—

The momentum from running, combined with the pressure of a person's weight, means that if someone collides with you, the impact will definitely cause them serious injury!

Nearby, Sadako sensed the change in the wind and sound, and her expression subtly shifted.

Kazuko Morinaka was also nearby, and she screamed, "Little—!"

Chapter 103 The Abyss of Virginity, The Abyss of Models

"Heart!!!"

The moment Kazuko Morinaka shouted, Chizuru Tanaka collapsed.

At the critical moment, Jiuzhiche stepped forward and caught the person who was about to be hit.

Sadako stood there, stunned, staring blankly as Kyuuji Tetsu hugged his friend Morinaka Kazuko, then hooked one leg around Tanaka Chizuru's waist.

Tanaka Chizuru fell near Sadako's arm and landed on Morinaka Kazuko, who was standing next to her. If Kyushige Tetsu hadn't arrived in time, Morinaka Kazuko would have been seriously injured.

"Th...thank you." Morinaka Kazuko looked at Kyushige Tetsuya, her soul finally returning to its place, her heart starting to pound uncontrollably.

"Hey students! Are you alright?!"

Several physical education teachers ran over and hurriedly checked on Tanaka Chizuru on the ground—she was on the ground because Kyushige Tetsu had put her foot down.

Jiuzhi Che withdrew his foot from her waist and released Morinaka Kazuko at the same time.

Kazuko Morinaka felt a sudden sense of loss for no apparent reason.

"Kazuko, how are you?" Sadako finally recovered and hurriedly asked her friend.

"It's nothing." Morinaka Kazuko blushed and grabbed Sadako's wrist. "Sadako, he's so handsome!"

Sadako looked over, and Kyuichi Che happened to be looking over as well. Their eyes met briefly, and Sadako looked away first, as if startled.

Just now, she thought she would be the one hit...

"She's not breathing!"

"Quick! Get him to the hospital!"

The PE teacher shouted in panic.

Amidst the chaos of war, Tanaka Chizuru was sent away.

Jiuzhi Che was gazing at the sky.

Tanaka Chizuru's death is an indisputable fact, because the moment her life was extinguished, a black aura shifted from her face and drifted towards the direction of the mountain behind the school.

Jiuzhiche followed without hesitation.

"Kuji... classmate..." Before Kayako could even call out, Kuji Che had already run off like the wind.

Kayako's breathing quickened, and she instinctively hugged the water bottle to her chest, her arms slowly tightening. Her eyes flickered with light as she murmured, "Che, Che drank from it..."

Kazuko Morinaka shivered, which slowed her wildly beating heart. She quickly asked Sadako, "Sadako, is his name Kyuusei Tetsu? I'd like to get to know him. Could you introduce him to me next time?"

Sadako didn't know how to answer. She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay... but he might not..."

I enjoy making friends.

Before she could finish speaking, Kazuko Morinaka was in a state of excitement again: "He just suddenly appeared, Sadako, do you know, his embrace is warmer than my dad's!"

Sadako forced a smile, and her entire demeanor became subdued.

She looked up, her gaze following a wisp of black smoke. Had Jiuzhi Jun... seen that black thing?

"Kazuko, I'll be leaving for a bit." Sadako pulled away from her friend's arm, a little worried about Kyuichi Che.

Is that related to the recent rumors about "becoming more beautiful"?

She had heard some rumors about Tanaka Chizuru.

Kayako held the water bottle for a while, then went to catch up with Jiuzhiche, but she was exhausted and soon lost track of him.

She stopped, took a few breaths, then unscrewed the cap, held it to the bottle opening, and took a small sip.

A rosy hue crept onto her cheeks.

I feel like I have strength again.

Che, what are you going to do? I want to follow you...

Jiuzhiche followed them to the back mountain of the school.

He didn't know that because he hadn't told Kayako he was leaving, Kayako had followed him without a second thought.

Sadako, too, followed with a worried expression...

A black aura surged and disappeared into a small lake.

Jiuzhiche had never been here before, but he knew from the signboard outside that this was a lake called "Virgin Abyss".

The lake is not large, about the size of one or two basketball courts. It is overgrown with weeds and has a mixture of black and yellow silt. The messy footprints prove that someone has been here and lingered by the lake for a while.

The lake surface looked emerald green, without any ripples, and the bottom seemed bottomless. Not a single fish swam around; it was as calm as a stagnant pool.

This is the Virgin Abyss, a place said to be eerie and terrifying, where any living thing that sinks in can never come out again, which is why very few students come here.

Jiuzhi Che recalled something from the comic, specifically the "Rumors" chapter in the Shuang Yi series. It mentioned that taking a bath in the Virgin Abyss could improve one's appearance and health. In reality, this was a lie that Shuang Yi fabricated to trick a girl.

Shuangyi followed behind the girl, wanting to capture her disheveled appearance as she entered the water. However, the girl was so frightened that she fled the water, only to find an extremely terrifying long horse face surfacing from the bottom of the lake.

That is, the model – Yuan.

Yuan was indeed taking a bath here. When she appeared, she met Shuangyi's eyes directly. Shuangyi was so frightened that she froze on the spot. This chapter ends here.

Jiuzhiche quietly observed the lake. After absorbing the girl's life force, the cursed aura of "beauty" rushed into the lake, which meant that the source was most likely here.

Directly entering the water is not an option; if something goes wrong, he might get trapped in the lake. Leaving him unattended is even worse; if he absorbs enough life force, the source becomes stronger and more uncontrollable, which would be even more disastrous.

I remember that in the original story, Virgin Abyss was a swamp-like place, but here it's a lake. If that doesn't work, we can try using underwater detection equipment, putting it in the lake and checking the situation through a camera.

Time needs to be quick, otherwise some girls who have been infected with "beauty" for a long time may not be able to hold on.

Jiuzhiche had secretly used purification on the person cursed before, but it didn't work.

To find the source of the curse, or the source of the curse on them, such as the Long Dream Curse, he can use purification on their heads, which can be effective. The problem is with the "Beautiful" Curse, in which case the only way to deal with the curse is to address the source.

"Lord Jiuzhi?"

"Sadako?"

Hearing the shouts, Jiuzhiche looked over and saw Zhenzi walking over, looking concerned.

"Kyuu-kun, I saw you rush over here. Is it because of a ghost? I saw a black trail flying over here." Sadako walked over nervously, glancing into the lake every now and then, seemingly very scared.

"That's right, the recent beautiful rumors circulating at school started from here. Beauty is not a good thing, but a curse."

Since Sadako already knew about the strange events, Kyuji Che didn't hide it from her.

Sadako walked over. "You'll protect me, right?"

At this point, she had already exceeded the safe distance for normal social interaction with Jiu Zhiche, which was 0.5 meters away.

His pitiful eyes looked at Jiu Zhiche, making people feel a strong urge to protect him.

"Of course, we're friends."

Jiuzhi Che, with his back to Zhenzi, was also looking into the lake.

Sadako smiled sweetly and raised her hand. "Thank you, Kyu-shiki-kun."

She pushed hard with both hands, shoving Jiu Zhiche's back—

The surrounding space seemed to be sealed off, and Jiu Zhiche's hands and feet were also bound by invisible chains. His body fell into the Virgin Abyss, and he turned his head to the side as he fell.

Sadako's triumphant smile froze slightly, because there was no trace of panic on Kyuichi Che's face.

He stomped his foot down, the terrifying force pressing a groove into the soil. Then, his body, already tilted at a 60-degree angle, stopped its fall with incredible force. With a flick of his wrist, he released the purification spell, causing Sadako's psychic powers to momentarily falter. Taking advantage of this, Jiuzhi Che straightened up and lunged at Sadako, causing her to roll forward several times...

"puff--"

A tentacle-like thing lashed out at the spot where Sadako was standing, sending mud flying everywhere.
