Chapter Twenty-Three: Yokota House
Nohara Kyoko's home, also known as the Yokota family, is located on the border of Minato-ku, a few blocks away from Meguro.
It is also a small, old-fashioned apartment building left over from the Chunk era, and the building history is estimated to be comparable to the old apartment where Uesugi Kiyoshi lived, but the area of the Yokota family apartment is much larger than that of Uesugi Kiyoshi's one-bedroom apartment.
When Kiyoshi Uesugi and Kyoko Nohara step on the train home together...
Yokota House.
Dressed in a crumpled suit, the terrible Yokodano with an expressionless face and a pale face pushed open the door of the house.
Yokota Ryoko - that is, Mrs. Yokota is watching TV on the sofa in the living room, since adopting Nohara Kyoko, her job as a housewife has been much easier, shopping for vegetables, cooking, cleaning, these chores all fall on Nohara Kyoko's head, in Yokota Yoshiko's opinion, this little girl eats her own family, uses her own family, and does some work as a matter of course.
Yokota Ryoko didn't look happy when she saw her husband come back, but glanced at her mouth impatiently.
She and Yokotano have been in a cold war for several months, and the cause of the cold war is that Yokotano's temperament has changed drastically - he has not given himself a family since three months ago!
If you don't have money, how can you run this home?
After getting married, Japanese men have to give their wives some household expenses every month to maintain the family's expenses, and the specific amount depends on the family's income level.
Some of those stay-at-home wives also go out to do odd jobs in their free time, but their income is generally low - not that they earn less, but that they earn more and pay high taxes, so they deliberately control their income.
In this case, the money needed to maintain a family basically comes from the head of the family, which is the main reason why Japanese men have a high family status in the family.
Yokotano hasn't given Yokota Ryoko's family for three months, and the money in Yokota's small treasury is almost gone, and if it goes on like this, the whole family will drink the northwest wind, so she naturally won't give Yokotano any good look.
This person! In the past three months, I only know that I am holding a strange statue to worship, as if I believe in some kind of cult!
He was only perfunctory when he talked to him, and he didn't talk about money when he asked about it, and he didn't say a word in the past month, like a dead man!
How did I fall in love with him in the first place?!
The more Yokota looked at Yokota, the more angry he became, and this emotion completely exploded after Yokotano threw his briefcase on the sofa and went to worship the shrine hanging on the wall.
"Yokodano! What the hell is going on with you! ”
Yokota gritted her teeth and opened her mouth hatefully.
"It's not even four o'clock! Why did you just go home? Your company won't leave work so early, right? ”
"You tell me the truth! Have you been made redundant by the company? ”
"It's been three months! You haven't taken a penny from home, and now you can't get by, what are you going to do! ”
Yokota's voice is a little hysterical, and she's really angry!
In the minds of many wives, the later the husband works overtime, the more valued and capable he is by the company, and if he arrives home at four o'clock like Yokotano, he may really be fired from the company.
Yokotano knelt on the floor, deaf to Yokota's words, his eyes were a little sloppy, and the corners of his mouth had a strange curved angle, like a clown puppet smiling evilly.
He looked at the shrine on the wall of the living room, bowed his head reverently, and said something in his mouth, but only his mouth opened and closed, and no sound came out.
As always, there was no response, Yokota only felt anger burning in her chest, and she followed the direction of Yokota and looked at the shrine on the wall, and the headless god fell into her eyes, making her suddenly very bored!
Such a useless husband... It's better to die!
Once this thought grows, it grows irrepressibly in her mind.
Yokota was depressed in her heart, and suddenly stood up from the sofa, and walked in front of the shrine in a few steps, blocking in front of Yokota.
"I'm talking to you! Did you hear that! ”
"Do you have me in your heart! There is no such home! ”
Her angry rebuke was only exchanged for two cold words.
"Get out of the way!"
Yokotano was expressionless, staring at his wife's angry face, and didn't care at all.
Yokota's breath faltered, and then, an even more blazing anger erupted from her heart.
She didn't know where the strength and courage came from, so she turned around and grabbed the idol in the shrine in her hand and threw it out.
The headless idol slammed against the wall, sliding limplessly, and with a crunch, the wooden body cracked into pieces.
Yokota's expression was stunned, and his face suddenly changed greatly.
He stared at his wife with fierce and violent eyes, and a beastly roar came out of his throat, and he bared his teeth and his eyes were blood-red, as if he was going to pounce on Yokota and tear Yokota to pieces!
Yokota Ryoko was taken aback, she didn't expect her husband's reaction to be so big, she took a few steps back in a panic and almost fell.
She felt that the person in front of her was not her husband who had lived with her for more than ten years at all...
That's just a homicidal maniac who looks like her husband!
For some reason, this thought stuck in her mind.
Frightened and frightened, Yokota Ryoko turned around and ran back to her room in a panic, locking the door - she was afraid that Yokota would do something terrible, and that look just now really made her heart palpitate!
Yokodano knelt on the ground and did not move.
Beside him, fragments of headless idols were scattered on the ground.
The windows in the living room are open, and the sky outside is gloomy, and the cold wind gusts to set off the atmosphere here.
Ten seconds later.
On the shattered fragments of the idol, a large amount of gray-black smoke suddenly poured out.
If Uesugi Kiyoshi is present, he can recognize it at a glance, this is a "mirage"!
The boundless mirage poured out endlessly, all wrapped around Yokotano's body, and his expression became a little hideous, as if he was enduring unbearable pain.
Yokotano's hideous expression didn't last long, and after a few breaths, some cruel and strange smiles appeared on his face.
He slowly stood up and bowed to the empty shrine.
"Miko-sama, do you need a sacrifice?"
"But the apricots haven't come back yet..."
"That's... Let me serve you devout devotees some hors d'oeuvre..."
Yokoda Mechanic's steps were heavy, but regular, and he walked to the kitchen step by step.
He removed a thick-backed boning knife from the knife holder.
Immediately afterwards, Yokotano, who was holding a bone chopping knife, walked to Yokota's door with a smile on his face.
The knife fell, and there was a loud bang, and the thin wooden door was cut through a big hole by Yokodano.
Through the irregularly shaped holes, Yokotano vaguely saw Yokota's frightened pale face.
That's his wife.
It was the love of his life.
It was a sacrifice he was going to offer to God.
The sinister smile on Yokotano's face grew stronger and stronger, and he slammed the door open, blocking the only exit from the room.
Dismember her!
As a sacrifice to the gods!
The heavy boning knife was wielded, a short scream sounded, and the creepy sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh was endless.
Yokota's eyes were fierce and confused, as if he had been bewitched by something.
But his men showed no mercy.
Broken internal organs, dark red blood, limbs chopped into irregular pieces, bloody ears, noses, gouged out eyeballs...
The Yokota house is a tragic Shura scene.
It's a bloody hell.
This is a hunting ground for ghosts and gods.
That's what it is...
The reality of this world!
