I am the one holding the Higan flower in my hand

Absolute power that can easily kill humans.

To be honest, after knowing that she had this power, the first thought in Kuriyama Kuriko's mind was to take revenge on those who had bullied her before.

Kill them.

If she hadn't been imprisoned in Infinite City to learn knowledge by Kibutsuji Mu, she would have done many things that she had never thought of before.

After becoming a ghost, her views on things seemed to have become radical.

In the past, when she thought about revenge, she just looked for an opportunity to beat up those nasty guys. She never thought about taking their lives.

Fortunately, I couldn't get out, so these thoughts gradually calmed down.

She felt scared. Kuriyama Kuriko had never been a person who liked killing people, nor did she want to become a murderous devil, whether human or ghost. She just wanted to live well, live happily and freely.

Zuhira Kotonoha rolled her eyes, "I didn't say this, Mrs. Tokura told me. The owner of this bookstore, she is a respectable lady and taught me a lot."

"Women," Kotonoha's hand unconsciously rubbed the teacup and said what Mrs. Tokura told her, "can do many things."

"Stand out there and make a lot of money."

"Go wherever you want."

"Go wherever you want to go?" This sentence directly hit Kuriyama Kuriko, a girl who has been trying to save money to get out of the mountains, but has never succeeded.

Until she paid the price of death to realize her wish.

But in fact, the mountain that bound her has not disappeared, it has just changed from the bright side to the dark side, and she still has no freedom.

These are not very passionate words, but they just hit the listener's heart, making her blood boil with excitement, like a person walking in the dark who suddenly sees a bright light.

"That's great," Kuriyama Kuriko said, with longing in her eyes.

"If you want, you can work in the bookstore and make money," Kotonoha said with a smile.

"Huh?" Kuriyama Kuriko was surprised and panicked, "Can I do it?"

"Of course, the benefits of the bookstore are still very good," Kotonoha told Kuriyama Rizi one by one about the benefits of the bookstore, including the monthly salary and one day's work time.

Only then did Kuriyama Kuriko remember that she could no longer go out during the day, and now she was unable to see the sun. "I..." She could only refuse this job with a generous salary sadly, unwillingly, and helplessly. invitation.

My heart was dripping with blood.

Kotonoha's starting salary was about the same as what she earned in a year as a human, but the work was somehow easier.

Damn it, why can’t ghosts go out during the day?

Why has it taken so long for Master Wu Mei to find the blue Higanbana flower and overcome his weakness of being afraid of the sun?

"I really want to come over," Kuriyama Kuriko crossed the social distance, and in Kotonoha's slightly surprised eyes, she enthusiastically held the other person's hand. She felt a little embarrassed about her subsequent shameless behavior, but she really wanted to come to work.

It's a dream job with lots of money and little to do.

"I have some physical problems. Can I wait until I get better before I come here?" She said it was shameless to do anything to make money. She said with a shameless face. Who told her to still owe Kimbutsuji Muzan some gold coins?

The gold coins for her parents were accidentally picked up in a room in Infinite City. Well, although she didn't ask, she believed from the bottom of her heart that Lord Wuhan wouldn't mind her borrowing some money from him.

Kuriyama Kuriko's sudden enthusiasm made Kotonoha stunned, and then he couldn't help laughing, "Of course, I thought you would reject me."

"How is that possible?" Kuriyama Kuriko's eyes widened in disbelief and she shook her head wildly. She wanted to cut her heart out to prove herself. "I can't wait to start now. The thought of having no choice but to refuse now makes me feel uncomfortable to death."

For a moment, he was so sad that all the features on his face felt pity. Although Kotonoha agreed, no one knows what will happen when the time comes.

It hurts, my money.

Kuriyama Kuriko was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe.

"By the way," Kotonoha looked at the pale Kuriyama Kuriko with concern, "Can I ask what illness you have? Mrs. Tokura's husband has a hospital, maybe he can help you."

"Well, I just feel uncomfortable when the sun shines on me," Kuriyama Kuriko told half the truth.

"As soon as the sun shines..."

"Yeah," Kuriyama Kuriko, who had just become a ghost and didn't know much about ghosts, didn't expect that the green-eyed girl in front of him had already guessed her true identity and was still saying, "It's really uncomfortable."

She feels uncomfortable when she shines in the sun. To be precise, she will die when she shines in the sun. Kotonoha looks at the pale girl opposite her with a complicated mood. No wonder there is no blood on her face.

That's right, of course the ghost's face is bloodless, unless it is in some exciting moments.

She didn't expect that the human being she felt friendly to turned out to be a ghost. Kotonoha didn't know what to say. Naturally, she didn't have any objections to ghosts, she was just lamenting some fate.

In the vast sea of ​​people, you can fall in love with a ghost at first sight.

This is the second time.

Could it be that I have a connection with ghosts? Kotonoha thought jokingly, "How about this..." She tilted her head slightly and stared at Kuriyama Kuriko, thinking in her mind whether to tell the other person that she already knew the other person's true identity.

The gentle woman hesitated momentarily.

This is a big challenge. Two people have just met. Will the ghost whose identity is revealed go berserk? However, if she doesn't say it now, the other party will one day know that she already knows.

Who knows that there is another ghost beside her? The two sides will definitely collide one day.

The thoughts in his mind went around for a few times, and finally, after making several decisions, Kotonoha decided to wait until he got to know Lizi better before making a decision, "In this case, be careful not to let the sun shine on you."

"Yeah, so I can't come over to work for the time being. I really want to come over and make money. However, my health is not good, but I will definitely try to get cured as soon as possible and then come over and work and make money."

"Okay, I'll wait for you," Kotonoha agreed with a smile, "Actually, besides working, there are many ways to make money."

"I know," Kuriyama Kuriko said with a wink. "Selling herbs, animal skins, and firewood, but the money you make is not as good as working in a bookstore."

"Well," this was not the method of making money that Kotonoha said, but she did not interrupt Kuriyama Kuriko's words. After the other party finished speaking, she continued, "This is not mine, there are others. We have gone out of our original ways. living environment.”

"People in every environment have different ways of making money," Kotonoha said. As she spoke, she suddenly felt a little dazed. It turned out that she had unknowingly known so many different things in the past. These things were not deliberately done. educational.

Just because I live here, I know it.

Kotonoha suddenly stood up and looked at Kuriyama Kuriko seriously, "Miss Kuriyama, the first time I saw you, I knew that you have something that I don't have, a 'fighting spirit'."

She stretched out her slender white hand to Kuriyama Kuriko and held out an olive branch, "You and Mrs. Tocura are very similar, I think you will get along well."

"Maybe I can be a Bole for once."

Kuriyama Kuriko couldn't sit still. She looked at the hand in front of her and suddenly felt like shrinking back. She couldn't believe that someone would be so kind to a stranger. It was a bit strange.

She stared hard into Zuhira Kotonoha's eyes, trying to find the other party's true purpose, but she could only see sincerity when she looked around, and she suddenly became even more panicked.

The body leans back slightly and the mind feels irritable.

I don’t understand, I don’t understand, I shouldn’t, how can there be such a person who helps others without asking for anything in return.

Picture what?

Not understanding, Kuriyama Kuriko frowned anxiously and rolled her eyes around and around in her eye sockets, an action that was completely impossible for humans. However, the ghost who is trapped in annoyance knows nothing and does not notice it at all.

Kotonoha, who could see clearly, slowly blinked her eyes and once again confirmed that the person in front of her was indeed a ghost.

He is a confused ghost.

She hopes to help each other. It's a bit crazy to say this, but it would be great if she could coexist peacefully with humans.

"Well," Zuhira Kotonoha suddenly showed a playful smile to Kuriyama Kuriko, "I didn't say no reward, I have to repay it, Miss Kuriko~~~"

She drew out her voice and smiled narrowly.

Kuriyama Kuriko's heart calmed down in an instant, her restlessness faded away like a tide, and she held the hand she had been waiting for for a long time. As soon as I held it, I felt the warm body temperature of human beings, "Of course, thank you very much for your help."

Kuriyama Kuriko breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, looked at Zui Ping Kotonoha, and said with a brisk smile.
