...?

???????

A thin layer of cold sweat broke out from the back of the neck cut by the candlestick, and it was not right to let go of the hand there, nor to continue to hold it.He didn't have time to distract himself from wondering whether the hand coming from the depths of the cabinet was a ghost or a corpse. On the surface, it still looked calm, but if you looked closely, you would find that the muscles under his shoulder blades were extremely tense.

To maintain his image, his subconscious mind is constantly reminding him that he must remain handsome, because yelling when he encounters strange things is too...!

After all, I have seen bloody weapons on the battlefield, ghosts in cupboards——

completely!Can't!Accept it!

but……

Sure enough, I still have to figure out what's going on, otherwise I can't report it at all...

Candlestick cut it for half a day to do psychological work for himself, so he dared to take a peek inside.

After a brief daze, he looked in again in disbelief.

...there is nothing in there.

However, the tactile sensation on the hand is definitely there, even though it is as cold as a block of ice, Candlestick can feel that "that" is the finger of a human being—or a creature that is close to human but not human.But when he looked over, he found that there was only his own hand on the bowl.

Then what exactly did he touch...?

Thinking of this, Candlestick's scalp felt numb, and he stared at the porcelain bowl that looked no different from other dishes at first glance, and tugged it mysteriously.

He saw helplessly that the moment the porcelain bowl shifted from its original position, an invisible force dragged it back, as if someone was fighting for it.

Candlestick cut Guangzhong let go of his hand like an electric shock.

"Why are you still there?"

Hasebe, who was still busy washing vegetables, looked up accidentally, and saw Candlestick Che, who should have finished picking up the dishes long ago, was still squatting motionless in front of the cabinet door with his back turned to him.

"...No, nothing."

Candlestick wanted to close the cabinet door trying to be calm, even though he behaved as usual, his body betrayed his true mood at this moment.The moment he got up, the pile of porcelain he was carrying shook from bottom to top. Candlestick Kiri and Hasebe noticed the shaky trend at the same time, seeing the ending of those bowls and plates falling to the ground and breaking into pieces. Inevitably, Hasebe rushed here at the speed of a [-]-meter sprint in one stride——

He held it!

When he held the top bowl firmly, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's really worthy..." After a moment of silence, Candlestick Chee praised sincerely, "It's really worthy of being the most maneuverable sword in this pill, Hasebe-kun."

"My purpose is to complete my mission with the fastest speed anytime, anywhere."

Fearing that there would be any mistakes, Hasebe took the stack of objects from the opponent's hand and placed them directly on the table.

"Be more careful, the master said that there is a recent financial deficit. If it really breaks, we may not have the money to buy a new one..." He counted and found that the number was wrong. "Why is there one missing?"

He was about to open the cabinet door and reach in, but Candlestick stopped him quickly: "Wait, Hasebe-kun—"

Holding the handle of the cabinet door with one hand, Hasebe took out a new bowl with the other: "Huh?"

Candlestick cut: "…………………"

He silently stared at the porcelain bowl held in Hasebe's hand, the pattern on it was obviously the one he wanted to take but couldn't take it away.

Why is the world so, so unfair.

The initial fright and nervousness passed, Candlestick Che checked it again with anxiety, and found that there was indeed no change in the cupboard.

Such a strange situation...I'm afraid it can only be explained by "this Honmaru is haunted".

The question is, why?

"I'm gonna start now!"

Unlike the short knives who put their hands together with great interest, the only one who was once a human being here attracted strange looks because he didn't do so.

"My lord," Five Tigers asked curiously, "Humans...wouldn't do this?"

Seeing his earnest questioning, Chisato Horiguchi started to play tricks.

"No," she pretended to be at a loss, "Who did you hear that from?"

Awataguchi and the others looked at Foxanosuke in unison.

Honosuke, who was holding half a piece of fried tofu in his mouth, choked when he heard the words, and after finally swallowing it, he said dissatisfiedly: "Master God Judge...!"

"Yes, I lied to you."

Qianli readily admitted.

"A lot of people will say it. After all, it is etiquette that has been cultivated since kindergarten... But although it is to express gratitude to nature, it is usually said more in front of family members. My family often does not get together. , but did not develop such a habit."

"What about now?" Rantoshiro asked.

"...?"

"The general will have dinner with us," Goto added, "will it be fun?"

Uh, the question...

Chisato Horiguchi was a little dumbfounded.

A few days ago, we ate separately, but today the dinner under the management of Candlestick Kiri and Hasebe allowed everyone to sit together.

Having said that, it was obvious that there were guys who yelled at her before...

"Well," she nodded, "Yes."

Including the three years after his death, Chisato Horiguchi spent his 19 years of life alone except at school.Thinking of sitting alone in the empty living room every night since she was a child, only the boring echo of the TV resounded in the room, she would feel that it would be nice to be so lively.

Luan Xiang smiled with satisfaction and narrowed his eyes, "That's great——"

California Qingguang looked away.

Yao Yan took a sip of tea, adjusted his glasses silently, thinking that even they hadn't shown such a smile for a long time.

The smile on the corner of the god judge's mouth was so shallow that she didn't even notice it, and she extended her chopsticks to the rich dishes.After only one sip, Horiguchi Chisato realized that her cooking skills were very different from Candlestick Kiri.

Sure enough, different things should be done by people who are good at it.

The golden fried shrimp tempura is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the rice is fragrant and soft, and the thick egg yakiniku with a strong egg aroma is sweet and sweet.After eating this kind of food, she suddenly felt that she had a little understanding of the previous minder's thoughts on this aspect.

"Thank you for the hospitality." Putting down his rice bowl, Chisato Horiguchi got up from his chair, "I still have official documents—"

"Owner."

Candlestick Kiri stopped her from behind, "Miso soup."

Qianli stopped and said in silence for a while: "... Miso soup? Why didn't I see it?"

California Qingguang pointed to the right side of her chopsticks with great dignity.

Chisato Horiguchi: "..."

She is not really asking!

"Master," Hasebe said seriously, "this is good for your health."

"I'm not a human now, and humans don't need miso at all."

"Master, you can't deny its nutritional value just because of the taste." Candlestick cut off.

"can not hear--"

Hasebe: "Master."

"what?"

"You said to me that you wish I could remind you of some inappropriate behavior—"

Chisato Horiguchi: "..."

That's why you put that phrase here? !

"Then you should remember that I also said that whether I change it or not is another matter." After being stared at by many knives, she finally lowered her head reluctantly, "...I drink, just this time, don't drink it next time. Give it to me."

She sipped the soup in small sips, and it was rare for her to see such a sullen look on the face of the judge, and Niaowei couldn't help being surprised, "So the master's weakness is miso soup?"

"No."

"Okay, okay," California Qingguang suppressed a smile, "If you say no, then it's not."

After finishing a bowl of miso, Chisato Horiguchi took the water from Hasebe to suppress the unpleasant taste.Putting down the bowl, she saw that the candlestick was indecisive.

"Candlestick cut, do you have something to say?"

"Yes, I want to save this matter for after dinner..." he said, "Actually, I touched an invisible hand in the cupboard in the kitchen before."

The room was silent for a few seconds.

"Eh--?!"

"Appeared again?" Cattail opened his eyes wide, "Appeared again?"

The candlestick told the truth about the matter.

"I see."

Hasebe was thoughtful, "At that time, it was because of this that you..."

Realizing what he was going to say, Candlestick Che, who always felt that this would damage his handsome image, nodded before he finished speaking.

"So," Chisato Horiguchi raised a finger, "so far, there are three, right?"

"The faucet that bleeds in the middle of the night, the doll that walks by itself, and the hand in the cupboard."

Yao Yan rested his chin.

"And the common point among them is that only one of the parties involved has witnessed the incident, and there will be no abnormalities after the others arrive."

"Do not."

A slightly unfamiliar voice, Qianli followed the direction to look over, only to find that the person who spoke was the bone who had always been taciturn.

"One of them," Gu Gu said, "was witnessed by more than one person."

"...Yes." California Qingguang suddenly said, "When the puppet reappeared, it walked to the master's room by itself."

"Sure enough, we need to investigate that puppet more."

Horiguchi Chisato turned his head and asked Ran, "Ran, where is the doll?"

"It's in our room," Rantoshiro said immediately, "I can get it right now."

The door fell behind Ran who was running away, Horiguchi Chisato tapped the table top with his knuckles, again and again.After a while, she said, "I have a guess about these supernatural events..."

The words were interrupted by the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps, and the door was pushed open violently.

"It's not good, it's not good."

"The puppet," he gasped as he leaned on the door frame, "it's gone!"

The author has something to say:

Doll: slip away...no!Don't look for it!Please don't look for it!
