I, the lord of ghost stories

"...after you die, your soul will also fall into hell.

You will not be able to enter the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, but will suffer from pain and suffering, and will never be reborn..."

While Ai was saying these words, her body gradually melted into the darkness.

In the end, only one sentence was left in the ear of Maiko who was standing blankly holding a scarecrow.

"...After that, it's up to you to decide."

Maiko woke up before the alarm clock reached the set time.

The strong morning sun shone into the room through the curtains, and the warm golden light shone on Maiko's face lying on the bed.

Lying on the pillow, she glanced down at the uniform she had taken off and left in the corner of the room, and slowly remembered what happened yesterday.

Using a sad mask to cover up a snicker, Mr. Sakumizu watched Maiko.

And Chanel's mother crying with red eyes.

──Whether everyone believes what the teacher said or what you said, you will know soon.

──It was written in several questionnaires, you are the one who bullied our Channa...

These words have been lingering in Zhen Yizi's ears.

She had to face too many problems, so she didn't know what to do in a short time.

And then, there's that dream.

To dream of loving this unfamiliar classmate, and such an inexplicable plot appeared, Zhen Yizi just laughed off the unreasonable dream.

Compared with that dream, "the current self can still smile" surprised her even more.

Since you can laugh, it should be fine, right?

Even if the evidence is gone, she tries to look hard.

She must bravely tell how much pain Channa has endured, what Teacher Suishui did to her, and the truth that she did nothing at the time.

After changing into her sailor suit, Mako went down the stairs.

She pretended not to notice that the phone cord was still disconnected, and greeted her mother, who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen as usual.

"morning."

"Good morning."

Mom looked worried, but she smiled and pointed her cheek.

"Maiko, there are traces of a pillow."

Makoto also smiled and touched his cheek.

Normally, mother is too busy, so both mother and daughter eat meals at their own pace, but today mother sits with her and eats breakfast.

After she was full, Zhen Yizi picked up the schoolbag that was left in the living room yesterday and ran up to the second floor, and quickly stuffed the textbooks that will be used today into it. As a result, she felt something rough in texture.

She took the dry-to-the-touch thing out of her schoolbag.

When Zhen Yizi saw the scarecrow with a red thread tied around his neck, he immediately stuffed it back into the bottom of his schoolbag.

"It's not a dream..."

During this time, the memories that were thought to be far away, as well as the fear, all surfaced.

If, that is not a dream...

"Maiko."

"Mother?"

In front of the porch, when the door was opened, my mother chased it out and stuffed a small silk bag with golden patterns on a white background.

It reads, "Get rid of bad luck and good luck, turn danger into safety."

"It's the guardian of the shrine."

Zhen Yizi looked at the amulet handed over by his mother, and when he touched the tie, a cool breath flowed along his arm and circulated all over his body in a short time, as if it had been scrubbed, and he felt a little bit.

"Maiko, if there is anything, you must tell your mother."

Mom gently touched her head.

"Ah."

"Do you want Mommy to come with you?"

Mom said something unexpected.

Even if she doesn't ask, Maiko knows exactly what her mother is worried about.

"No need, I'm not a primary school student."

Makoto smiled and shook his head.

Mom bent down a little, looked at Maiko's face carefully, and then returned to her usual smiling face and stood up straight.

"No matter what, my mother believes in Zhen Yizi."

"My family's Maiko is so innocent, how could she do things like bullying others."

"Hmm... Mommy's words are so irritating!"

Really angry, but relieved.

"Don't worry, mom is still here. If something really happens, mom will take care of it, so you can go!"

"Then I'm going out."

The same road to school, the same school gate scene.

Maiko passed the reporters and guards who were still confronting the school gate, passed the shoe cabinet, climbed the stairs to the classroom, and did not talk to anyone along the way.

She opened the front door and walked into the classroom.

The whole classroom fell silent instantly, and then all the students turned their heads to look at her.

At this moment, the whole scene seemed to freeze for a moment, but everyone quickly returned to their respective conversations.

No one spoke to Maiko directly, but everyone peeked at her furtively.

In their eyes, there is curiosity, gloating, or anticipation of what will happen... Only a very few, very few are worried.

Maiko looked over, her good friends from the past turned their heads unnaturally when they met her gaze.

When Maiko silently walked towards her seat, she suddenly stopped moving.

A white cloth was spread on the table, and there was a vase with withered lilies in the center.

She was pretty sure she hadn't mistaken her seat.Someone moved the white cloth and vase from Chanel's seat to Maiko's table.

A male classmate stared at Maiko, who was standing still, and looked at her profile.

"Oh? Guan Chuan, are you here?"

He said deliberately in a nonchalant tone.

Zhen Yizi turned his face away.

The fingers she was about to reach for the table trembled involuntarily, much to her chagrin.

Never cry.

"I thought you wouldn't come. I was embarrassed to come to school after being scolded by Gugou's mother like that. I didn't expect your nerves to be so rough!"

Maiko turned a deaf ear to these words that sounded like exclamations but were actually full of malice, but she still didn't dare to put her hand into the drawer, and she didn't even dare to look at it.

Before squatting down to look, she had already smelled a strange stench.

Who the hell did this?

Maiko turned her head and found that Yuka and Remi who were sitting in the corner of the classroom met her eyes, and immediately turned their faces away, and the two even looked at each other and smiled.

That smile is bright and free of impurities... just like a pure little angel.

But, who knows—they belong to the choir just like the dead Channa, and they probably know what happened to Channa during the club activities.

Maybe they did it.

Can people be so shameless?

After the teacher forced water, Zhen Yizi once again felt the malice deeply.

He obviously did nothing wrong, but he just got hurt—as expected, in this world, patience is useless.

Maiko glanced at the other students, everyone put on an expression of ignorance, but when they saw Maiko's embarrassment, they all snickered secretly.

This made Zhen Yizi tremble with anger.

She knew very well that if she cried now, it would only make these people happier.

The thought of wanting to destroy the people in front of him suddenly appeared in his heart—at this moment, Maiko felt that he could understand those avengers.

"Unfortunately, I can only drag one to hell..."

Maiko tightly hugged the schoolbag where the scarecrow was hidden, searching for Yan Moai in the classroom.

However, she was nowhere to be seen.

The class bell rang.

The students returned to their seats one after another, and finally Maiko was left standing alone.

After the door opened, the still dignified and beautiful teacher Lishui walked in with steady steps.

She glanced at Maiko who was standing blankly in front of the white cloth and vase, and then walked up to the podium.

"Student Guan Chuan, please sit down quickly."

Teacher Lishui's pretty face was full of indifference.

It was impossible for her not to see the vase and cloth on Zhenyizi's table, but she just pretended to turn a blind eye.

However, this is a matter of course - Maiko knows her true face best!

This is a vicious black spider!

Just like those who bullied Chanel and bullied her.

Maiko bit her lip tightly to keep from crying.

"Please sit down quickly."

However, Maiko couldn't sit down no matter what.

The table stinks, presumably from the algae colored dirty water in the vase being dumped on the table.

Dirty water dripped slowly along the edge of the table, forming a water stain on the chair.

"Student Guan Chuan."

Teacher Shuishui urged her with an elegant and serious tone.

The students all showed malicious indifference, watching Maiko's reaction with bated breath.

Maiko just lowered her head and hugged her schoolbag tightly.

Although she made up her mind not to cry, her eye sockets gradually heated up, and a hot feeling welled up in the depths of her throat.She couldn't take it any longer.

Maiko lowered her head, hugged her bag, stepped forward, and rushed out of the classroom.

Leaning against the wall at the door, Yuu Sifeng raised his head and looked towards the classroom.

After Maiko ran out crying, the whole classroom exploded in an instant like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan.

Chapter 240 On the Roof

Excited students, as if they were satisfied to see the long-awaited program, sat in their seats and whispered to each other.

Teacher Lishui patted the podium, but the voices of the discussion below did not diminish at all.

"Quiet, everyone, study by yourself first, I'll go find classmate Guan Chuan."

The hair swaying in the wind is elegant and smooth. When she stepped out of the classroom door, the corners of her lips were slightly drawn, revealing a little smugness inadvertently.
