Moreover, she believed that Aragaki Manami was thinking about her younger sister, Toyohama Waka.
Honestly.
She wasn't sure if it was related to the ghost or monster.
But she found it very strange that her younger sister was now acting without eating or drinking and without any problems.
It was so weird it sent chills down my spine!
Can a person survive without food? Of course not!
However, her sister's situation shattered this purely objective law, and Sakurajima Mai sensed something was very wrong.
That's why she started looking for someone before the problem fully erupted, and she actually found someone!
How lucky.
With Mr. Aragaki around, this matter can definitely be resolved, right?
Mai Sakurajima thought to herself.
Before long, the two arrived at a coffee shop.
I also saw a girl who looked quite slender, with beautiful blonde hair tied up on the left side with a light blue hair tie, and wearing slightly glamorous eye makeup.

"This is my younger sister, Toyohama Waka." Sakurajima Mai spoke first to Aragaki Manami, and then introduced her sister.
Kazuka Toyohama's expression was rather complicated.
From Aragaki Manami's perspective, the whole story is like this: seeing her older sister Sakurajima Mai, she's happy! But seeing herself, a stranger, she feels inexplicable hostility, wondering, "Who is this?"
That's roughly the gist of it.
"This is Mr. Manami Aragaki. He has solved countless paranormal cases and even saved my life," Mai Sakurajima explained softly to Kazuka Toyohama.
His eyes were somewhat sharp, and it seemed he was forcing his younger sister to greet him.
“You’re exaggerating when you say that I saved your life, Miss Sakurajima,” Aragaki Manami said with a smile, raising her hand as she noticed something. “Now that we’ve had a brief introduction, I’ll get to work.”
Feng Bin and Xiang were stunned for a moment, somewhat confused.
Mai Sakurajima is another one.
But I'm even more frustrated by my younger sister's "rebellious phase." I've given her countless warnings before, but she's still like this...
Regardless, she has made up her mind that she must apologize to Mana Aragaki properly later!
"Mr. Aragaki, do you wish to perform an exorcism here?" Toyohama Kazuka asked in a calm and respectful manner, lowering her head slightly to show even greater deference.
Aragaki Manami naturally wouldn't consider this genuine respect.
This is probably what someone meant when they said, "Why praise others? It's to first elevate them to the heavens, and then to bring them crashing down!"
He's currently the one who's about to be thrown down.
However, Aragaki Manami wouldn't take it to heart.
Just do the task. If you go against the key points of the task, you're going against yourself. If you really don't behave, he has a whole host of ways to deal with you.
As for Sakurajima Mai, she was a little angry. She didn't expect her previously well-behaved and obedient younger sister to become so impolite.
Actually, the main reason is that Toyohama and Kaori think Aragaki Manami is a liar.
In her eyes, everyone who talks about these supernatural things is a fraud!
Upon hearing that Aragaki Manami had once saved her older sister Sakurajima Mai's life, she became even more convinced that Aragaki Manami had deceived her sister through some means!
In short—Manami Aragaki = a liar!
However, Toyohama Kazuka understood that she had to expose Aragaki Manami's "true colors" properly.
Therefore, it has been decided to temporarily implement a feigned evasive strategy.
Manami Aragaki understood it at a glance, as did Mai Sakurajima.
The two exchanged glances for a moment.
Mai Sakurajima lowered her head slightly and closed her eyes to express her "I'm very sorry," while Manami Aragaki blinked to indicate "It's okay."
The entire process was resolved within seconds of Toyohama and Kaori's questioning.
Therefore, Manami Aragaki slowly began to respond: "Let's not talk about exorcism for now. I hope you can answer my questions seriously."
Kazuka Toyohama immediately nodded: "No problem, please rest assured, Mr. Aragaki, I promise to tell the truth!"
The nodding motion and the firm tone were fluent, skillful, and very natural.
Watching this scene unfold, Aragaki Manami remained unmoved: "Then, please tell me your opinion of your father?"
Huh?!
Kaori Toyohama looked somewhat shocked; she suddenly couldn't understand what Manami Aragaki was trying to do! Even Mai Sakurajima was the same this time, though her expression was less pronounced.
"Please summarize with an adjective, and answer seriously," Aragaki Manami continued.
Kazuka Toyohama gritted her teeth secretly, but still answered honestly: "...Gentle."
Aragaki Manan snorted lightly.
Mai Sakurajima's expression unconsciously darkened slightly.
But Aragaki Manami didn't have time to care about that, and instead asked, "Then, summarize your evaluation of your mother in one sentence, and be just as honest this time."
"...She's being completely unreasonable!"
"Okay, I understand. Question finished. Ms. Sakurajima, please say goodbye to your sister. I'll wait for you outside."
"...?!" Feng Bin and Xiang were petrified.
She stared blankly as Aragaki Manami paid for her drink and walked straight out. After a long while, she looked at Sakurajima Mai, whose expression was constantly changing, and asked, "Sister, did you hire a psychologist?"
Mai Sakurajima opened her mouth slightly, and the composure and calmness she usually maintained were really hard to keep up at this moment.
What should she say now...?
On the other end.
Stepping outside, Manami Aragaki quietly recalled the plot of the "Bunny Girl Senpai" anime and light novel, and analyzed it in conjunction with the various details she had just inquired about and observed from Kaori Toyohama.
"Although the answer 'Aysathy' is rather vague, it should be the most accurate and appropriate answer. After all, if you have an unreasonable mother and an unreasonable father, it's another matter whether you can grow up healthily and survive."
Aragaki Manami was thinking.
He genuinely hadn't expected to have to analyze such mundane family matters just to complete the task; it was truly frustrating.
He would rather use knives and guns, or face danger directly, as he did in Aichi Prefecture.
There was nothing we could do.
Often, if you want to gain something, you have to compromise a little.
Soon.
Mai Sakurajima also came out of the coffee shop. After Manami Aragaki greeted her, they walked and talked in a nearby park.
“Ms. Sakurajima, your little sister is growing up.”
"...?!"
Sakurajima Mai looked puzzled, but didn't misunderstand the question. She just blinked her blue eyes with a blank expression, her gaze filled with confusion and a hint of anxiety.

P.S.: I'll update around 1 or 2 AM.
Chapter 98 Mai Sakurajima's mission is complete! Ready to go to another crossover anime world.
Manami Aragaki wasn't trying to keep things a secret; she just wanted to give Mai Sakurajima some breathing room.
He continued, "Your sister's condition is special. It's like the seedling of her 'self' is about to sprout, but for various reasons it has become stagnant."
in fact.
Although he was annoyed by the mission, he had to admit that he was also quite interested in it.
After all, this involves things that could potentially broaden his horizons.
how to say?
If we compare our childhood to a state of confused chaos, then adolescence is like that chaos beginning to gradually evolve and change.
Sakurajima Mai's younger sister, Toyohama Waka, is in a similar situation.
If we think about it on a larger scale, this can even be compared to the religions and mythologies of the whole world.
for example.
In the chaotic, undifferentiated world, when the seedling of self was about to sprout, the world appeared in the form of the "Great Mother," and held an important place in mythology and religion.
The term "Great Mother" is difficult to explain in words; we can only use its imagery as an example.
For example, the Japanese version of "Guanyin Bodhisattva," influenced by China, is a positive image of a great mother.
It represents unconditional acceptance and nurturing of everything!
Its opposite is "Yamaba," a negative image of a domineering mother.
This represents nature's rejection and absorption of everything!
This is also the essence of the "folk tales" that Aragaki Manami understands as being attached to Toyohama and Kanochi.
In short...
Feng Bin and Xiang are rejecting everything and resisting everything!
If we understand it using modern thinking, it would be a "mental illness," but it's rather strange. If this kind of "mental illness" is not cured, it can easily lead to death very quickly.
Mai Sakurajima, who only heard two short sentences from Mana Aragaki, had almost perfect comprehension.
I was a little puzzled and confused when Mana Aragaki mentioned that her younger sister was growing up, but I understood when she mentioned the word "self" again...
