Monday.

Qiao Qiao pushed a small motorcycle and walked into the campus.

The teacher on duty and the discipline committee officer stood at the door, checking the appearance of the students.

"Kawakami, your hair has grown a centimeter, right?"

"An Yuan, isn't your skirt a little short?"

"Suzuki, why do you smell of smoke?"

Etcetera.

Qiao Qiao was not stopped.

Despite being a member of the Discipline Committee, Natsume Shi, a sophomore in high school, stared at him like he was looking at some dangerous element.

Qiao Qiao's face still did not change, and he greeted Natsume's fiery gaze and walked through the school gate.

After parking the car and coming to the shoe cabinet, Qiao Qiao looked at the hair he arranged yesterday, which was well left in the cracks, and nodded with satisfaction.

I opened the shoe closet, changed my shoes, and came to the classroom.

The morning classroom is very lively.

It's Monday, after all.

Over the weekend, there must be a lot to communicate.

"Yo, are you going to karaoke tonight?"

As soon as Qiao Qiao sat down, Kazuya Sakamoto patted him on the shoulder.

"This time, there is a girl with Ochasu."

He also said quite mysteriously.

"No, it's almost the end of the semester, and I need to review it carefully."

Qiao Qiao declined Kazuya Sakamoto's invitation to practice.

"At the end of the period? Isn't that just over a month? ”

Kazuya Sakamoto looked at the date on his phone.

"Wouldn't it be nice to review a week or two in advance?"

"There is a proverb in Huaxia."

Qiao Qiao glanced at Kazuya Sakamoto.

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace, be prepared when you think, and be prepared for danger."

I'm not a talented player.

If you can't revise early, wouldn't it be terrible if you get delayed due to something on the way.

"Okay."

Kazuya Sakamoto returned to his seat in a daze.

Qiao Qiao took out the books about monsters borrowed from the library and used them as early self-study before the first class.

This time.

"I heard that there is a lucky street in Chiyoda Ward."

"What?"

"That's what I heard from my cousin, and she said that all she had to do was cross that street after ten o'clock in the middle of the night, and at the same time she thought to herself that if she heard any sound, it would come true quickly."

"It's really fake, I don't believe it."

"Really, my cousin tried it once, and she passed the exam right away."

The girl next to her was chatting about gossip, and the voice came into Qiao Qiao's ears.

Well.

Lucky streets?

What is the new urban legend?

Recently, Chiyoda-ku seems to have a lot of weird incidents.

Qiao Qiao was studying, thinking in his head.

A few girls chatted to themselves, and finally seemed to decide to go and see it in the evening.

Wait, as a high school student, isn't it a bit bad to not be home at 10 o'clock in the middle of the night?

Although Qiao Qiao himself is not qualified to say this, after all, he has a job and has no choice but to do it.

"What if there really is a ghost or something?"

"Ten o'clock, it seems a little too late."

"By the way, we might as well call Shi-chan, she's a trainee shrine maiden of Tosho Palace."

"Okay, okay, with her, it's definitely fine."

Well?

Do you want to invite Natsume-san?

Qiao Qiao thought for a moment about the way she stared at herself in the morning.

Then you should be fine.

Ueno Toshogu Shrine is also a big shrine, although it may not be as good as Asano Shrine Maiden, but Natsume-san's strength should not be bad.

The class bell rings.

Qiao Qiao stopped thinking.

......

Late at night.

Ten o'clock.

Chiyoda-ku.

An alley away.

"Is that the alley here?"

Natsume glanced at the road, and in her vision, there was nothing special about this alley.

"Yes, yes, that's what my cousin said."

Ryoko Saito, who is in Class A of the second grade, nodded like pounded garlic.

"It looks a little spooky."

Her classmate, Yu Kinoshita, hides behind Ryoko Saito.

"It doesn't matter, this road looks dark, but it's actually quite a lot of people, my cousin's rented apartment is not far in front, and we can visit her then."

Ryoko Saito said with a smile.

Another classmate couldn't make the trip because of his strict family education, and now it's just three girls.

Some of the summer heat can already be felt on the nights at the end of May.

The road looks unremarkable, but after Saito Ryoko's explanation, it is not so scary.

"Then let's go and try."

Natsume poetry did not let her guard down.

At the shrine, she was taught.

Weirdness is sometimes hidden in the most mundane things.

Since today is a school day, she doesn't need to go to the shrine to practice.

Therefore, there are no cumbersome soul-removing props such as Kagura bells on the body.

There is only one royal coin.

Therefore, Natsume took out the imperial coin and held it in his hand in case of emergency.

Since the last time, someone has put a mine in Qiao Qiao's shoebox.

After passing through the channel of the shrine again, Natsume poetry probably knew what happened during that time.

At one point, she was afraid to go out.

This world is too dangerous.

I didn't expect such a powerful monster to hide in the crowd.

This was a blow to the soul of the apprentice shrine maiden.

Of course, later, Natsume's poetry overcame her psychological shadow and successfully walked out of the house.

Maybe it was after that incident.

Natsume's poetry, grew.

At this moment, she was full of vision and looked at the whole street.

Saito said that there are usually many people here, but now there is no one.

On the whole street, there were only three girls.

"Okay, it kind of scary."

Despite the bright street lights, the noise of the city can be heard from afar.

But Yu Kinoshita was still shivering.

Natsume's poetry is at the forefront.

Holding the royal coin, in my heart, there are no distractions.

It is different from Yu Kinoshita, who is shivering, and Natsume's poetry, who is waiting for battle.

Ryūko Saito, who was walking at the back, was thinking about her wishes.

She hopes to get a good grade in her final exams.

If you can get a good score, maybe your father will take him abroad to play during the summer vacation.

Thinking about these things, Saito Ryūko suddenly felt a cool breeze coming out of the back of her neck.

It's like.

Someone is blowing on their neck.

"Now."

Then she heard a call.

Ryūko Saito turned her head.

"Cousin?"

Ryūko Saito looked at her cousin, Ayumi Saito, with some surprise.

Ayumi Saito is a college student.

She was carrying a bento and beer from the supermarket, as if she had just finished shopping and was about to go home.

And Natsume's poetry and Kinoshita Yu, who were walking in front, also heard a call at the same time.

"Now."

She looked back.

"Saito-san?"

Natsume was a little alert when she saw a woman standing next to Ryoko Saito.

"This is my cousin."

Ryoko Saito explained.

"W-what, it scared me to death."

Kinoshita said tremblingly.

"My house is in front, why don't you go up and sit down?"

Ayumi Saito looked at the three high school students and smiled.

......

Tuesday.

Qiao Qiao still pushed his small motorcycle and walked into the campus.

The teacher on duty and the discipline committee officer stood at the door, checking the appearance of the students.

"Takada, you secretly put on lipstick, right?"

"Hasegawa, pull my hair away and see if it's a piercing ear?"

"Kudo, that's not how you wear your school uniform, is it?"

Etcetera.

It's no different from usual.

Qiao Qiao walked through the door.

Suddenly.

He found.

Discipline inspection committee member next to the teacher on duty.

Natsume's poetry.

Smiling at yourself.
