I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

Chapter 229 Funeral Home

Yoshizakigawa did not reveal the too dark news to Yamamura Mako in front of him. This kind of thing itself was exciting enough, and he wanted Mako to know the inside story, even if he didn't immediately transform into the Ghost King.

After finishing speaking, Yoshizakigawa looked at Yamamura Mako in front of him;
"Fake...fake, right?"

"Teacher, please don't scare me with this kind of thing, okay?"

"It's not funny."

Mako's face was a little pale, and she seemed to want to smile, but her tense face couldn't be released.

So he could only tighten his face and look with longing eyes, trying to get words like "This is all just a joke" from Yoshizakigawa.

but,
Yoshizakigawa sighed: "Zhenzi, I know you feel uncomfortable. I have also considered whether to hide it from you before, but sooner or later you will know this kind of thing."

"I'll take you back with me later."

Originally, I wanted to postpone this matter for a few days until after the investigation tomorrow, and then wait for an opportunity to gradually inform Yu Zhenzi about this matter.

Mako's eyes looked at the scene passing by outside, and she said, "Teacher, look, that's my home over there."

The two of them walked outside the school like this. Yoshizaki stopped a taxi, told it the location, and asked Mako to sit next to him;
As the car started, Yoshizakigawa could feel Mako's hand grabbing her cuffs harder and harder, and she was getting nervous.

She did not stop crying. Although her eyes were a little red, she still pretended to be strong in front of Yoshizakigawa. She squeezed out the word "um" from her nose, and then looked out the window;

She pointed to the building outside that looked like a primary school but was obviously dilapidated and said: "That wall collapsed once before. The dean took us to the river to dig stones and then repaired it with cement. At that time, I went to There is a wishing bottle inside.”

Yoshizakigawa did not look back or be surprised or anything, and did not speak, as if this kind of thing was a matter of course.

Mako is obviously a very strong girl. From her body, Yoshizakigawa can't see the slightest trace of evil spirits, and all he sees is good conduct.

This is something Yoshizakigawa does not want to see.

This way of paving the way will prevent the latter from being hit too hard rashly.

As soon as she said this sentence, Mako's eyes felt a little sore. She rubbed them and stopped the tears that were about to overflow in her eyes. She didn't say anything, but she held onto Yoshizakigawa's sleeves tightly.

Yoshizakigawa did not comfort him. He knew that at this time, she should be given a certain amount of time to digest.

He said: "Let's go, the teacher will always be with you."

Yoshizakigawa didn't say any more words of comfort or concern. He just said that there would be no classes in the evening, and he stayed silent with him. After a few more minutes, he felt that Mako had almost digested his emotions.

So he called Gaoyao and told Gaoyao that he had something to do in the evening and might not be able to go home. He asked Gaoyao to cook at home or go out to buy some food. Then he hung up the phone and watched the scenery in front of him pass by. ;
The car drove for two hours and cost tens of thousands of yen. When the car drove to the orphanage, the sky was already dark, and the outline of the waning moon could even be seen faintly;

"The teacher has no classes in the evening."

But God is not as good as man. It is obvious that Mako has sensed something. If he conceals it at this time, there will be gaps if there are some accidents in the future.

"Teacher, you don't have to do this for me. You still have your own things to do. I... can go back by myself."

The latter's inexplicable self-narration, in Yoshizakigawa's eyes, is a way for Mako to vent his emotions;
So, he asked gently: "Then what wish did you make?"

Mako didn't speak until she couldn't see the building even in the rearview mirror, then she said in a daze: "I... wanted to be fed and clothed then, just like now."

It was the dean who gave him all this. But now...he is dead, dead, and I haven't even seen him for the last time.

He died quietly, and even everyone in the orphanage didn't know about his death, right?

I felt empty in my heart, but I couldn't cry. There was another silence, until the driver in front said: "Sir, we're here."

Yoshizakigawa opened the car door and walked out. Mako slipped when he got out of the car and staggered, being supported by Yoshizakigawa.

"Teacher, do you think there are really ghosts in this world? Where do people go after they die?"

"I think there is, maybe... reincarnation?"

Walking into the funeral home, with every step he took, Yoshizakigawa felt that the pace of the girl next to him was slower, and the weight on him became heavier.

She could hardly walk, but Yoshizakigawa still didn't speak. Mako's weight was not very heavy and was within his tolerance.

He acted like a tool man throughout the process, helping the latter to the front of the ice coffin;

When she saw the familiar old man lying in the ice coffin, one of the strings seemed to be broken. She looked at it blankly, but she did not shed any tears.

I just wanted to reach out my hand tremblingly, as if I wanted to touch the latter's cheek, but I didn't move for a long time, because I was afraid that the touch would make me feel that this was real and not a dream.

However, it is obvious that this fantasy at this time is just self-deception.

"Cry, cry if you want, don't hold it in."

At this moment, Yoshizakigawa's words seemed to have defeated the girl's last line of defense. Douda's tears rolled down. She hugged Yoshizakigawa and buried her head in the latter's clothes, covering her tearful eyes;

Silent tears, trembling body;
There was a mime going on inside the funeral parlor.

Yoshizakigawa patted the latter's back, and after crying, Mako seemed to feel better;
"Teacher, do you think there are ghosts in this world?"

It would be great if I could see the dean again, at least... at least say goodbye once!

"some."

Yoshizakigawa rarely denied this this time.

"Then...I can see..."

"People who have no regrets will not become ghosts."

Yoshizakigawa knew what Mako wanted to do, but for her, this was an impossible thing. Which ghost dared to appear in front of the former ghost and the latter ghost?
Coming to this room now, Yoshizakigawa asked Qinzi for a charm that can see ghosts. Now he can see ghosts directly.

But in this funeral home, it was clean and there was nothing.

"Dean...do you have any regrets?"

At this moment, Yoshizakigawa suddenly felt something strange in the distance. He looked up and saw an old man hiding behind the wall, looking this way;

When he saw Yoshizakigawa looking at him, he pointed at Yamamura Mako, then pointed at himself, and shook his head. Yoshizakigawa immediately understood what he meant. He did not dare to approach here because of Mako.
