It wasn't until Shiraishi grabbed Takahashi's top and yanked it, and a bunch of stuffing fell out, that Chikako Ikeda finally came to her senses and took two nervous steps back: "...What's going on?"
Shiraishi didn't say anything. He took out Takahashi Ryoichi's knife and threw it far away to prevent it from being used to harm himself or hurt others if it fell here.
Then he looked through the pile of stuffing and found that there were a lot of bandages and straps mixed in. Someone gave me a pillow if I was sleepy.
Shiraishi used these things to tie Takahashi Ryoichi tightly to a nearby tree.
After doing this, he turned back to look at Chikako Ikeda and said in a friendly tone: "He just wanted to kill you."
Chikako Ikeda looked at Ryo Takahashi's belly that deflated in an instant, vaguely realized something, and felt a chill in her back.
At this time, she saw her benefactor waving to her and pointing at Ryoichi Takahashi.
Chikako Ikeda thought there was something Shiraishi wanted her to see, and combined with the other person's good tone, she didn't think much and walked over.
As a result, before I could stand firm, a burst of spray came from beside me.
Shiraishi sprayed it at the right time when she inhaled, and what the Butterfly Ninja made was very effective.
Before Chikako Ikeda had time to show her panic, she was already dizzy and fell to the ground.
Shiraishi then put away the spray bottle.
Although Chikako Ikeda doesn't seem very aggressive, if she suddenly loses her mind and stabs Ryoichi Takahashi with her backhand, or goes back to the villa to call someone... things will become very troublesome.
At present, it seems that there are many misunderstandings about Atsuko's suicide, and Shiraishi is planning to use stone flowers to play a replay for the two people on the ground.
Before that, he still hoped that they would remain in the most convenient way for being pulled into the virtual world and wait in place.
…
Atsuko and Chikako stayed in the villa for two days, buying food and other daily necessities from nearby convenience stores.
Neither of them brought wallets, but fortunately they found a pile of money from the bookshelf in the villa, which Chikako Ikeda put out when she was packing her bag one time.
Atsuko Taketori ran away from home for the first time. She felt pretty good at first, but gradually became a little tormented. They originally planned to stay until Friday, but in the end they returned to school one day early.
After class, Taketori Atsuko planned to go home.
Chikako Ikeda originally wanted to accompany her for a longer walk, but suddenly remembered the "surprise" she had prepared, changed her story and said she had other things, and left in a hurry.
After the short honeymoon was over, she remembered that she had forgotten to mention her pen name and the production could not be started there.
It's a pity that I still haven't made it in time for my birthday, so I can only ask Sata Ikeda to print a sample first to fill in the gift holes, and then officially publish it later.
…
Takahashi Ryoichi was walking with several classmates, discussing the class he had just finished, and planned to go to the bookstore to buy some reference books.
While queuing to check out, he saw a row of novels on the promotional shelf in front of the counter, and the pen name actually read "Chikako Ikeda".
Curiously, he took a copy and turned a few pages before Takahashi Ryoichi's face became very ugly - whether it was the beginning, the plot, or the characters, this was clearly the manuscript of Taketori Atsuko!
This is shameless plagiarism!
Takahashi Ryoichi took the book and rushed into Taketori's house angrily, wanting to tell her about it.
But Taketori Atsuko was not in the living room. When he entered the door, he only saw Taketori Mie.
After hearing his explanation, Taketori Mie stared at the book with an unreadable expression.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally took it and touched the page with her hand several times before opening it.
…
What follows is a common example of parents not agreeing and running to the other parent's house to ask for a breakup, and then being bumped into by Taketori Atsuko who slipped out of the house.
Seeing her mother kneeling in the rain, Ikeda Chikako was too speechless to speak, and Taketori Atsuko was exhausted both physically and mentally.
She was taken home by her mother without saying a word. Seeing that her daughter did not argue with her, Taketori Mie became much gentler and went into the kitchen to cook.
Taketori Atsuko was sitting at the dining table and saw the black cat sliding downstairs softly against the wall.
From the day she ran away from home, the cat's attitude towards her became much colder. I don't know if she got angry because of the rain.
Taketori Atsuko slowly stretched out her hand toward it.
However, the cat bypassed her like it did several times before, ran into the kitchen in small steps, rubbed against Taketori Mie's legs while she was preparing the meal, and purred coquettishly.
The sky was getting darker and darker, so Taketori Mie turned on the light.
Warm light lit up in the kitchen, and the light that diffused into the living room was blocked by the door frame and fell in front of Atsuko Taketori, creating a neat boundary between light and dark.
When returning home, Taketori Atsuko didn't actually think about what to do next.
But now, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
She calmly got up and went upstairs. When she left the living room, Taketori Mie gave her a wary look.
Seeing that her daughter was just going back to her room and not going out, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to put the udon noodles into the boiling soup pot.
Taketori Atsuko walked into the bedroom, closed the door, and looked up at the mottled roof.
The house was old, and a small piece of the ceiling had fallen off, and she covered the hole with colored paper.
Taketori Atsuko moved a stool and used it to tear off the covering paper. She saw a horizontal strip of building materials in the hole, but she didn't know whether the knot was strong or not.
She calmly thought about the next process, as naturally as she was thinking about what to write. Soon, she found a rope and wrapped it around the beam.
Taketori Atsuko climbed onto the chair and stuck her head into the hanging rope loop. She stood there for a few seconds. After a while, she suddenly closed her eyes and kicked the stool away with all her strength.
At the same time as the feeling of suffocation hit, a flash of bright light suddenly flashed over her head, drawing a long silver arc. A few drops of warm liquid also rolled down from the knife and splashed on her face.
Taketori Atsuko's neck relaxed, and she fell forward, falling on the bed in a panic.
She grabbed the broken rope and turned around in panic and confusion. She saw a man in black clothes and a strange black half-face mask looking down at her, with a tall black shadow covering her body.
"I..." Bai Shi held the blood-stained kitchen knife with an indifferent expression, moved his lips, and silently swallowed the curse words back to the bottom of his heart——
