The effect of [Hanako's Curse] just expired today.
As long as they slow down and sneak around, the silly and silly children along the way won't notice the existence of the Kamiya River too much.
In the corridor on the second floor, a headless JK squatted in the corner.
It dug into the wall with its fingers, grinding out gray-white powder on the ground, and made a meaningless "giggle" laugh from its empty skull.
Look what we found?
A lonely and curious boy!
Kamiyakawa crouched down skillfully and held the [bloody hatchet] close to him.
"Grrrrrr?"
When the distance between the two shortened to about three steps, the headless JK noticed something.
But it's too late, weird story!
Kamiyagawa pounced like a nimble lynx, and the bright blood-stained knife tip stabbed the headless JK's lower back!
Phew.
The kidney attack succeeded.
The headless JK twisted his body and let out an unexplained whimper.
Kamitani put his right foot on the opponent's waist without mercy and kicked forward.
The hatchet was pulled out, and the headless JK disappeared in a burst of black smoke.
A perfect backstab execution!
[Kill the Xiqi boy and get 2 soul crystals!]
Get 2 soul crystals.
"Speaking of which, I seem to have accumulated a lot of soul crystals, nearly 200 of them."
I have been fighting monsters in the novice village of Hualing Gui School for so long.
In addition, every night lately, the soul crystals of the Xiqi boy that Mary hacked to death with murderous intent will be automatically settled on Kamiyagawa's head.
It is normal to get two hundred soul crystals.
According to Kamiyagawa's understanding, soul crystals are similar to some kind of currency in the Kaitan world.
When he paid the tuition to Teacher Chigui, he used this thing to pay for it.
"Gan, I have collected so many soul crystals, it would be too bad if I can't spend any of them."
There are no consumption points in the map of Hualing Ghost School.
The only place where soul crystals can be consumed is at Tachi Akiki's place.
But Teacher Chigui is a bit too conscientious.
After collecting the initial tuition fee, I began to preach and receive my vocation seriously, and I never asked for any additional money in the future.
Kamiyagawa went to him to hang up and gain proficiency in [Nodachi Self-evident Style], all for free.
Anyway, to sum up the current situation, it is——
People are not dead yet.
The money is still there.
But I was stunned that I couldn’t spend a penny.
sorrow.
"Forget it, if I can survive until I open the next map, I might be able to find a place to consume these soul crystals."
Kamitani stopped worrying about spending money and continued to move towards the third floor.
The third floor of the teaching building.
At the end of the corridor is the BOSS room, where Hanako's family is located.
Kamiyakawa stood in the corridor and did not approach rashly like the previous two times.
"There are no obstructive Xiqi boys around, and the distance is almost enough for me to rush into the women's restroom immediately when Mary chases her."
He took out his cell phone and opened the call history.
It shows that the most frequent calls have been received recently, and it is a strange number with no notes.
This is Mary's phone number.
"Don't let me down, Miss Mary." Kamiyakawa took a deep breath, "If you can help me today, I will play with you as hard as you want."
My fingers were shaking uncontrollably.
I can't tell if it's because of fear or strange excitement.
Tap the screen.
The call was made.
After a few blind tones, the phone was connected, and a familiar, cold female voice that seemed to have no human condition came from the other end: "Hello, I am Miss Mary."
Kamiyakawa remained silent and waited quietly.
But the person on the other end of the phone did not follow the previous routine and started announcing the time. After a brief silence, he started repeating: "Hello, I am Miss Mary."
This time Kamiyagawa can't stand it.
Mary, you were not like this before.
Perhaps, passively receiving a call from Mary and actively calling her are really two different situations?
Kamiyagawa felt it was necessary to say something recently.
After holding it in for a while, he said softly: "Why don't you come to me?"
no respond.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, as if I was waiting for the follow-up after confessing my love.
After a while, Mary's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Are you inviting Mary?"
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when Mary said this, her voice seemed to be a little higher than usual.
Of course, only a little bit.
"Really?"
"...No one has ever invited Mary."
Dudu.
After saying the last sentence, the phone hung up.
Kamiyakawa was left standing in the corridor on the third floor of the teaching building, confused.
MARY What does that mean?
To come or not to come?
"As long as it's a girl, it's hard to guess her thoughts even if it's a weird talk."
If Mary hadn't come, Kamiyagawa would not be able to defeat Hanako's family alone.
Therefore, after hanging up the phone, he could only wait where he was.
I hope the phone will ring again and I can hear Miss Mary's familiar voice announcing the time.
But time passed by and nothing happened.
"Can't Mary be summoned by calling?" Kamiyagawa felt a headache and a little discouraged.
It seems that Mary will not come.
It doesn't seem possible to drive away tigers and devoured wolves by relying on the evil spirits on the phone to drive away the ghost dolls in the toilet.
"Boys, you need to be more proactive... Do you want to try calling her again? It seems that I am very sincere."
Kamiyakawa raised the phone and began to hesitate.
Before the second call could be made, a voice suddenly rang in the originally empty and silent corridor.
Tick tock, tick tock.
Like a slight dripping sound.
Hearing the sound of water dripping, the hairs on Kamiyakawa's back stood up.
When Ishino Sayuri mentioned their ghost-hunting process before, she said that there was a strange sound of water dripping in the women's restroom that night!
Could it be...
Kamiyakawa suddenly raised his head and looked towards the other end of the dark corridor.
At the corner of the toilet at the end, several figures were walking out, twisting stiffly and like puppets on strings.
Hanako's puppet family.
In addition to Kamiyagawa's familiar mother, sister, and brother, there was also an old man whose body was covered with plaques, and it was unclear whether they were age spots or corpse spots, walking at the back.
This is Hanako's grandfather.
Stayed in the second stall of the men's room.
Kamiyagawa had never explored the men's restroom next to it before, so he had never encountered this evil spirit.
Tick tock, tick tock.
The dripping sound continued.
The sound goes from dull to clear, from far to near.
Kamiyagawa finally identified the source of the sound of water drops and quickly looked above his head.
I saw a girl with a doll's head and a red suspender skirt hanging upside down on the ceiling of the long corridor, crawling like a gecko!
Get closer quickly!
It's Hanako.
The ghost doll's head was twisted to a terrifying 90 degrees, with an innocent yet eerie smile on its face:
