Tokyo Ghost Diary

Hoshino Gen was awakened by a soft little hand.

Gen Hoshino, who was lying on the quilt in the corner of the quiet room, quietly opened his eyes, with a strong coldness in his eyes, until he moved his eyes slightly and saw Tamamo Mae duck sitting next to him, grabbing a lock of his hair with his small hands. The tips are rubbed there.

The sharpness in his eyes dissipated, and Hoshino Yuan silently grabbed the little girl's hand.

"A Yuan, you're awake!" The little girl seemed to have noticed that Hoshino Yuan had opened his eyes, and shouted with a smile.

Hoshino Gen didn't say a word, but his eyes fell on Tamamo Mae's left shoulder. The clothes there were somewhat torn, and on the exposed white and greasy skin underneath, there was a wound that appeared to be caused by violent friction.

"What's going on?" Hoshino Yuan asked calmly.

The little girl followed Hoshino Gen's line of sight and glanced at the injury on her shoulder. Then she couldn't help but pout. She pointed behind her and said, "It's the energy cover outside. After I sent Rin-chan home, , I came directly to you, but the cover locked the space. I was worried that something had happened to you, so I forced my way in."

Hoshino Gen didn't say anything after hearing this. He let go of Tamamo Mae's hand, sat up with the quilt under him, and said calmly: "Next time you encounter a similar situation, remember not to be so reckless."

"Oh." Tamamo-mae pouted her little face and said a little aggrievedly, "But I'm just worried about you..."

Hoshino Gen took out a white water charm and put it on the little girl's shoulder: "But if you are injured, wouldn't others be worried?"

Feeling the clear water flowing over her shoulder, the wound was numb and comfortable, Tamamo Mae couldn't help but open her mouth slightly and looked at Hoshino Gen with bright eyes. She couldn't believe that these words came from Hoshino Gen. It came out of my mouth!

But before she could recover and laugh, Gen Hoshino calmly added: "I'm talking about Rin."

"..."

Looking at the little girl's pouty mouth again, Hoshino Gen raised his lips slightly, raised his hand and flicked her soft little face, and then stood up with his knees.

Hoshino Gen left the quiet room and came to the main hall, and found that there seemed to be more people here. Among the mikos who were all wearing miko uniforms, the few extra people in ordinary clothes were particularly conspicuous.

In addition to Ayane Sasaki who was sitting on the edge of the bed looking down at the book on his lap, and Tamamo Mae who was hiding behind him, Yusuke Takasugi arrived at some unknown time and was wearing headphones at the moment, leaning against the wall alone with his eyes closed to meditate.

The other two people who are not wearing miko uniforms are people whom Hoshino Gen doesn't know. They are a man and a woman. The man is a middle-aged man in a suit. He is squatting in the corner with a sad look on his face.

The woman is a girl with pink hair. She has fishnet stockings wrapped around her two slender legs and a lollipop in her mouth. Although she is dressed a bit exaggeratedly, she still cannot hide her beauty. The other person puts his hands on her In the pocket of his open pink sports shirt, he saw Gen Hoshino coming out and smiled, winked at him with his left eye, and gave him a wink.

Gen Hoshino didn't even know who this person was, so he ignored him. Of course, he only glanced around, and finally his eyes rested on Takasugi Yusuke.

He led Tamamo Mae over.

"Good evening, Hoshino-kun." Takasugi Yusuke clearly did not open his eyes, but as soon as Hoshino Gen came to him, he smiled and greeted softly.

The witches over there were also chatting in whispers, but the voices here didn't seem out of place.

"Well, when did you arrive?" Hoshino Genya responded casually.

"Three hours ago." Takasugi Yusuke took off one of his headphones, opened his eyes and smiled at Hoshino Gen: "When I came here, I met your friend, a very kind girl."

Hearing this, Hoshino Gen understood, and he couldn't help but smile: "Not leaving?"

Takasugi Yusuke smiled and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence. Then, he couldn't help but cast his eyes on Tamamo Mae, who was grabbing the hem of Hoshino Gen's clothes and following him closely.

Tamamo smiled at him: "Yusuke!" This was also the person who had a shikigami contract with her.

Takasugi Yusuke smiled and said: "Are you still used to living in the human world?"

Tamamo nods, her smile unchanged: "I like it very much~"

While they were chatting here, a figure suddenly came over.

"What are you two handsome guys and this little beauty talking about? Can you take me with you?"

The three of them looked up together, and it was the girl with pink hair who came over.

The girl was not afraid of strangers, so she introduced herself generously: "My name is Chiyo Uzuki. Can I meet a few of you?"

"Chiyo?" Hoshino Gen raised his eyebrows and grasped the key point immediately.

"That's right, it's the Chiyo you were thinking of, Hoshino-san," the girl, or Chiyo Uzuki said with a smile.

"Do you know me?" Hoshino Yuan asked in confusion again.

"Hoho~ Different eyes are rare, let alone one as good-looking as Hoshino-san?" After saying this, Chiyo Uzuki looked at Yusuke Takasugi next to him: "And this one, he should be the famous [ Puppet Master], Takasugi-kun, right?"

"..." Takasugi Yusuke said nothing, but he seemed to frown at the so-called [Puppet Master] as if he was not interested in it.

But soon, his brows relaxed again, and after a moment of pause, he still said: "Since Miss Chiyo is a member of the Chiyo family, why doesn't she wear a miko uniform like other miko?"

Chiyo Uzuki showed a somewhat "unscrupulous" smile. It was only now that she had some temperament that matched her outfit. She smiled and said: "Those who can be miko in the shrine are all the eldest ladies of the main line. I Of course, ordinary people born in this branch are not qualified~"

Although the content of her words seemed to be self-deprecating, there was no hint of this in her expression.

On the contrary, there was a sense of ridicule: "If Lord Gong Si hadn't been critically ill, how would I, who possesses special abilities and was chosen as a spare container because of my close relationship with Lord Gong Si, be qualified to step on it?" How about entering this palace?"

"The spare container means..." Although Takasugi Yusuke had roughly guessed what it meant based on the literal meaning, but in order to confirm whether his guess was right or wrong, he still asked with a look of doubt on his face. .

"They are the spare parts for Miss Sasaki over there~" Chiyo Uzuki said nonchalantly: "Miss, gold is precious after all, but precious things are often easy to break... you know~"

"Of course, after all, she and the Palace Secretary are aunt and nephew, so the success rate is definitely much higher than that of a distant relative like me. If she can't do it, I probably can't do it either. Therefore, the occasion where I am more likely to be useful should be there. When a young lady can’t bear the huge [karma], please help share some of it.”
