In the living room on the first floor, Baiyin Yuxing patted his chest and exhaled. Really, if you have already moved, take away the unwanted dolls with you..."

Natsume hugged Mr. Neko and was thoughtful, because he swore that he was not mistaken. The two puppets were definitely standing in front of the window and watching them just now.

But Mr. Cat didn’t say anything. If it was a monster, he should be able to deal with it easily, right?

Uchiha Ling believed in Natsume unconditionally, although he did not see anything and felt nothing when he first entered the room.

The wooden rubberized doll half lying in the corner seemed to him to be just an ordinary doll, with neither evil spirit nor the spiritual power of an Onmyoji inside.

But for the sake of Shirogane Yuxing's safety, let's get rid of those two dolls.

"Don't talk about that, what do you think of this house?" Uchiha Ling thought it was very good anyway. This kind of house would not be cheap in other areas, let alone the Minato District of Tokyo.

In Baiyin Yuxing's words, he really had to pick up the slack to be able to rent this kind of house.

(PS: The Nohara family in Crayon Shin-chan is a typical one-family, two-story, 3LDK house)

"Of course I'm very satisfied, and the price is really right. I've already decided that my room will be the studio on the second floor."

Uchiha Ling nodded. "The doll room is for Xiaogui?"

"..."

Baiyin Yuxing coughed lightly. "I'm a staunch materialist and don't care about those things. Of the two rooms on the second floor, the doll room is indeed larger. It's normal for girls' rooms to be larger."

"I'll just throw the doll out later. I'm going to try staying here for one night tonight."

Uchiha Ling stood up. "Then try it slowly, Natsume, let's go back."

Natsume also stood up with Teacher Neko in his arms, as if he was about to leave.

"No, no, no! I'll treat you to a meal! I'll cook for you personally, okay? The room here is big enough, so you just have to be good and stay with me for a day."

Uchiha Ling raised his eyebrows. "Are you afraid?"

"Afraid? How could I, the dignified president of the Shuchiin Student Union, believe that kind of thing! It's just that the puppet is a little too delicate. How did you say that word? Yes! The uncanny valley effect."

"It's just a doll? You can't move it!"

Click - it seemed to be the sound of opening the door, followed by thump, thump of footsteps, coming from the direction of the entrance.

"ah!!"

Shirogane Miyuki hid directly behind Uchiha Ling, looking towards the door of the living room with a trembling voice. "The sound from the entrance...is also the sound from the stairs on the second floor..."

Uchiha Ling slapped away Shirogane Miyuki's hand that was clutching his shoulder, and then sat down on the spot.

"Natsume, let's stay here for one night with Shirogane-san. Shirogane, what should we eat for dinner?"

"Is it time to study eating now!!!" Baiyin Yuxing collapsed a little and wanted to open the door to see what was going on, but he didn't dare to go there.

Until the footsteps stopped outside the living room door...

"No wonder I saw the lights turn on. It turns out someone is there...Are you the new tenants of this house?"

The person who walked into the living room was a middle-aged aunt who looked to be in her fifties. She was wearing a headscarf and cleaning clothes. She seemed to be a professional cleaning staff.

The aunt glanced at the key that Baiyin Yuxing put on the table, and then said with a smile.

"I help the original owner clean the house and come here every Saturday and Sunday. Of course, if there are tenants, I won't come. The key to the door will also be given to the tenants."

As she said that, the aunt took out the door key from her pocket and threw it on the table.

Baiyin Yuxing breathed a sigh of relief, immediately returned to normal and smiled. "I'm also here to look at the house today. I plan to stay one night and give it a try. If possible, I will move here next week."

The aunt looked very kind and kind, which immediately eased the tense atmosphere in the living room.

"In that case, do you still need me to clean today?"

"Of course! By the way, you come here to clean it every week, right? Can you ask why the original owner of this house left two dolls upstairs?"

"Doll...what doll?"

Baiyin Yuxing pointed in the direction above his head. "It's the empty room on the second floor."

The aunt's expression became visibly serious. "I've been coming here every week for the past few months, but there are no dolls on the second floor..."

Baiyin Yuxing: "..."

"Uh... Hahaha, aunt, did you remember it wrong? Let's go up and have a look now!"

In order to prove that all three of them could not hallucinate, Baiyin Yuxing took the aunt up to the second floor and opened the doll room.

What a clean and tidy room. The breeze blew through the window on the left. The room was empty, as clean as a newly renovated new house.

Baiyin Yuxing pointed to the corner where the doll was supposed to be, with his mouth open and speechless.

After a long time, the aunt sighed, shook her head and said.

"Let's go back to the living room first..."

Uchiha Ling frowned. "Auntie, are you right? Do you know anything?"

The four of them returned to the living room, Shirogane Miyuki squeezed in between Uchiha and Natsume, and even held the cat teacher in his arms, as if this way he could feel safe.

As for the cleaning lady, she was sitting opposite and seemed very troubled.

"Sigh... I'll just tell you the truth. I couldn't tell you these things originally. After all, the original owner of this house was very kind to me. I can't get rid of the tenant who finally showed up..."

"But I can't watch you irrelevant students being involved."

The aunt's expression was serious, "Have you ever heard of a strange story circulating on the Internet called a two-body doll?"

Two-body doll?

It is said that the original owner of this shop suddenly became obsessed with making dolls in his middle age. As the workmanship became more and more sophisticated, his dolls were even sold online for high prices.

But his temper became more and more irritable, and he always shouted that he must make the most perfect work.

Then he somehow heard that there is a kind of witchcraft in the East called Gu, which means putting bugs, snakes, etc. in a box and letting them kill each other. The one that survives in the end is a perfect work.

So the original owner frantically made a large number of dolls and put them in the doll room. Then he cursed the dolls and left the house for a while.

When they came back, the dolls were all damaged to varying degrees, but only two of the dolls were standing there unscathed.

After the original owner succeeded, he was proud to say that he had made the most perfect doll, but most people thought that he had gone crazy because he had been alone for too long.

No one paid attention to him, so six months later, the original owner moved out of the house and destroyed all the dolls.

Later, there were rumors around here that you could hear the footsteps of people and the sound of objects moving in the house at night. Some people came over to investigate out of curiosity at night, and then shouted "There are two!" There are two! ] escaped.

This is how the rumors of the two-body doll spread, because it is said that many witnesses claimed that they saw the moving doll.

"The original owner of the house used to be a very cheerful child. Because my son worked out of town, he often came to take care of me. After he left, I volunteered to come over and help clean the house..."

"About two months ago, a tenant also moved in. It seemed that he was a writer who was looking for a quiet place to write, so he fell in love with the environment and strange legends here and was looking for inspiration."

Baiyin Yuxing swallowed. "What about...that writer?"

The aunt sighed. "I didn't stay for more than a week... He fainted at home because of a heart attack. Because he lived alone and was too lazy to clean, so I still came over every week to help, and then I found him and sent him to the hospital."

"Is he okay?" Bai Yin Yuxing then asked.

"After I woke up, I also claimed that I had seen the two-body doll, and then I checked out and moved out of Tokyo. I heard that I had already left the country."
