I'm a Light Novel Master in Japan

"I'm the third." Li Yan said with the help of the light on his mobile phone.

"Ah, I'm the seventh." Fujinomiya Kimi said with a smile.

Soon, everyone drew lots. As a result, Lianhua in the palace was the first, and Xiahai Yuegu was the second, Li Yan was the third, Xiaoju Yuegu was the fourth, and Guanghua in the palace was the fifth. Aoyama Qikai is sixth, Fujinomiya Kimi is seventh, Shiina Mashiro is eighth, and Koshitani is ninth.

At [-]:[-] in the evening, there were loud laughter from the residential houses not far away. There had never been any strange legends or injured accidents. After all, in such a comfortable place to look for a test. In a daring place, the uninhabited shrine around the dwelling is the most ideal place.

"Lianhua, it's about to start." Koshigu Xiahai said.

"We know!"

Lianhua said with a flashlight in her hand.

As a result, she started holding a flashlight and started walking up the mountain by herself.

"Then, the third gentleman, please protect Lianhua and Kang Na's work." Miyauchi Ichiro said to Li Yan with a smile.

It was said at the beginning that no matter what order the lotus flowers were drawn in the palace, the eldest person was required to take care of the lotus flowers in the palace. In the past, it was usually Fujinomiya Miki, or Koshigaya Zhuo, but this time it was Li Yan, a freshman, was in charge. These secrets were arranged before Li Yan came here.

"I understand." Li Yan nodded, and shortly after Lianhua set off, he followed slightly.

"Come on, novelist teacher." Koshitani Xiahai beckoned.

"Well..." Koshigu Xiaoju, who had always wanted to get in touch with Li Yan and explain the rude words Xia Hai said before, still didn't have the courage to approach him, and sighed helplessly when he saw his back leaving.

"Don't worry, the teacher doesn't care about that at all, just talk to the teacher properly."

Suddenly, Fujinomiya Kumi who was behind showed a slight smile and whispered to Koshitani Komari.

"Oh Amount……"

Yuegu Xiaoju was stunned for a moment, then he felt a little more at ease, and nodded.

※※※

In the woods in summer, fireflies are flying in the grass and forests, and the ancient shrine torii is quietly erected in the woods. If you make a trip back and forth, it takes about ten minutes for ordinary people, but the lotus flower in the palace has a small pace and likes to wander around. Therefore, after waiting for more than ten minutes, Lian Hua and Li Yan did not come back.

"It's really boring to wait." Xia Hai, who was sitting on the grass, said annoyed.

"I don't think so." Koshitani Xiaoju said nervously.

"Well...then, it just so happens that the younger children are not here, so let's start the traditional courage test ceremony." Fujinomiya Kimi raised his hand and suggested.

"Ok?"

Everyone looked at Mimi Fujinomiya, a nimble high school girl who seemed to be quite familiar with how to play this traditional Japanese game.

Koshigu Xiahai immediately agreed and said, "Okay, okay, what kind of ceremony is it?"

"Telling ghost stories, this is usually what you need to do before playing a dare game. On the one hand, it supports the atmosphere, and on the other hand... It tells the monsters that we are curious about them and hope to see them... This way Oh son." Fujinomiya Kimi said with a smile, holding a flashlight on his face.

A gust of night wind blew the group of middle and high school-aged students, and it seemed that some of the timid people suddenly felt a little frightened by the deliberately weird voice of Fujinomiya Kimi.

"Ah...forgive me."

"What, to tell ghost stories..."

Qingshan Qihai and Koshitani Xiaoju held their heads and thought to themselves.

"It turns out that I didn't even know there was such a start. It does have a little impression." Koshitani Xiahai said.

"I...I don't know, why don't I omit this step...how about it?"

Qingshan Qihai raised his hand with a blue face and proposed to ask.

"Oh, oh, don't the students in Tokyo know that when they play this in Tokyo, they will start telling ghost stories. This is the essence of the whole game and cannot be omitted." Guanghua Miyauchi covered his mouth slightly, Said with a slightly mocking expression.

"Um..." Qingshan Qihai felt so helpless that he couldn't tell.

"..." Shiina Mashiro seemed indifferent, sitting quietly on the grass without saying a word.

"Hee hee, Xiaoju looks scared enough, really, do you really think there are ghosts, monsters, etc. in this world, don't worry, there is absolutely no such thing in this world, scientist It's been emphasized all the time, so there's no need to be so afraid."

Koshitani Xiahai noticed her sister who was already starting to be afraid, and immediately shook her hand, comforting her with a slightly mocking expression.

However, not long after this sentence was uttered, Zhenbai, who has rarely spoken, spoke up.

"Youkai and ghosts exist."

This sentence is very gentle, but very firm, and seems to be saying something for granted. However, the words spoken in such a tone are like a ghost story, and suddenly made Koshigu Xiahai and others feel a chill and said.

"Eh……"

Fujinomiya Kimi and others were not familiar with this beautiful blonde girl, and they all looked at her when they heard her affirmative remarks.

"Really?" Fujinomiya Kimi asked curiously.

"Ah."

Shiina Mashiro nodded and said, "I met Sherlock Holmes several times."

"Sherlock Holmes??" Koshitani Xiaoju was stunned for a moment. From just now until now, they all heard Shiina Mashiro seem to have been referring to Li Yan as Sherlock Holmes.

"That... Mashiro..." Qingshan Qihai noticed that Mashiro seemed to be about to say something, and stretched out his hand a little, trying to stop Mashiro from continuing to speak.

"How is that possible, ghosts or something, it's just superstition." Koshigu Xiahai spread his hands and said with a smile.

Shiina Mashiro said: "It's true, I mainly met three times."
