I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo

"It's raining?"

"Fortunately, my mom stuffed an umbrella into my schoolbag when I went out this morning."

It was drizzling, and the students who were leaving school gathered under the teaching building, some with umbrellas, some with nothing.

"Hey, this little rain, I'll just walk back and take it as a shower--"

"Come on, will anyone invite you to join them?"

"Damn, aren't you the same?"

The boys who didn't bring umbrellas gathered together, chatting and waiting for the rain to stop, while looking to the side.

Whenever other students were invited by the opposite sex to leave with umbrellas, they immediately whistled and booed.

It's raining?

Looking up at the sky, Qiu Riyou reached into his schoolbag.

Yesterday, there was murder and burial, so how could there be time to check the weather forecast?

But it's not difficult to create an umbrella on the spot using the 'transmutation technique'.

".Akihi, are you coming together?"

The class monitor, Nao Iaina, who opened the umbrella next to her, turned to look at Akihi Yuu, and spoke after struggling for a moment.

"I can take you to 'Imperial Sakura School'."

"Then."

Taking her hand out of her schoolbag, Akihi Yuu nodded.

"Thank you for your help."

"Ah~~~!"

"Damn it, the class monitor is really good."

As the two walked into the rain, a series of wails came from behind.

Nao Iaina, as the class monitor of their class, is excellent in both character and study, treats people sincerely, and has a very explosive figure. I don't know how many boys' dream goddess she is.

Although she used to take care of that 'gigolo', at that time she could still explain it by saying that the 'gigolo' was bullied. Now they share an umbrella, which is almost a clear destiny. How can these guys not be envious and jealous.

"A bunch of little brats,"

Akihi Yuu rolled his eyes at the louder boos behind him.

Tap, tap,

"Wait~~Take me with you!"

Amid the hurried footsteps, a petite figure hid under an umbrella with a schoolbag covering her head.

"Tennu-san?"

"Hehe~~"

The person who came was Tennu Ying, who often walked with Qiu Riyou. The girl's shoulders were already wet, and she looked at Iaina with a smile.

"Nao-chan, do you mind?"

".Ah.No,"

The monitor blushed. Although her umbrella was quite big, it was inevitable that three people would touch each other.

"That's great. I checked the weather forecast yesterday, but I forgot to bring an umbrella~~"

The familiar Tennu Ying took Iaina's other hand and 'pushed' her towards Qiu Riyou.

"Do you know each other?"

Qiu Riyou spoke while quietly using 'Transfiguration' to expand the area of ​​the umbrella.

"Of course,"

"Nao-chan is the top student in the grade, who wouldn't know her?"

Tenjo Ei replied as a matter of course, and the calmed-down monitor shook his head slightly.

"Compared to the self-reliant Tenjo-san, my grades are nothing."

"Oh?"

"Tenjo-san, tell me more."

"Nothing, actually I'm working at my grandfather's shrine."

As the three of them left with an umbrella, a crow squatting on the roof of the teaching building spread its wings and flew into the rain. The rain fell on its body, as if it had hit an invisible barrier, and slid down one after another.

Although he enjoyed school life, Qiu Riyou was not idle either.

He was practicing Ninjutsu: Paper Clone

That's right, the difficulty of this technique of Konan in "World of Fire" is only D-level!

Just like the 'Four-legged Technique' he gave to Tanimura Wataru, it is essentially an extension of the 'Transformation Technique'; Konan's 'Paper Clone' is essentially just an extension of the 'Clone Technique'.

Instead, it is the more common water clones, all of which are C-level ninjutsu.

The crow spread its wings and soared, sweeping its eyes below.

Looking for a target to practice ninjutsu.

Bunkyo Ward

Metropolitan Koishikawa Secondary Education School,

As a place famous for culture and education among the 23 districts of Tokyo, Bunkyo Ward has 15 universities, 17 high schools, and 31 middle schools. The famous "Todai" is located here. Whether it is anime or movies, when you want to raise a certain elite status, you usually start with "Todai graduate".

Unlike Adachi Ward where most students eat and wait for death, the students here are almost all elites among elites.

——Of course, it only refers to IQ.

"That classmate.?"

"Ah, that's Jun Kishida from Class A in the third grade."

A female classmate who took out an umbrella noticed a boy standing quietly in the corner of the eaves, and couldn't help asking her companions curiously.

The male classmate had a handsome face and looked like a good student, but his expression was full of sadness.

"Don't disturb him, he should be paying tribute to his friend, right?"

No matter how strange the other students looked at him, the boy standing quietly under the eaves remained motionless.

Soon, all the other students left, and only he was still standing there.

It's raining again, Miyashita.

The boy looked up,

looking at the drizzling rain in the sky, as if he had returned to half a year ago.

"Oh no, I forgot to bring an umbrella!"

Good academic performance does not mean that other aspects are also perfect.

Walking out of the teaching building, looking up at the rain falling from the sky, the boy named 'Kishida Jun' couldn't help but feel annoyed.

At this moment, a girl with a ponytail opened an umbrella with a bear pattern printed on it, and Jun Kishida couldn't help but look over.

It was Miyashita.

"What's wrong? Kishida."

Noticing his gaze, the ponytail girl turned her head.

"No, it's nothing."

Jun Kishida, whose cheek temperature suddenly increased, shook his head in panic;

However, the pony-tailed girl ‘Miyashita Ryoko’ had already seen his embarrassment with empty hands and no umbrella.

".Would you like to hold an umbrella together?"

After hesitating for a moment, the girl with blushing cheeks raised the umbrella in her hand.

"Why?"

Just when Kishida Jun was stunned, a meaningful voice sounded behind him.

"oh,"

"Yo~~~"

As an elite high school, students here naturally don't whistle, boo or boo.

But when encountering this kind of thing, the young man still couldn't help but chuckle.

And these sounds fell on Kishida Jun's ears like thunder!

"No, I'll forget it."

Finally, the young man tilted his head and rejected the other party.

"That's it"

Lowering her head, the umbrella covered the girl's face.

"I seem to be too busy, sorry."

After saying that, the shy girl turned around and ran into the rain curtain. Only Kishida Jun, who raised his hand subconsciously, and the sounds of regret and ridicule behind him were left.

"I was rejected. It's embarrassing."

"Pitiful."

The girl walked faster and faster, and finally turned into a trot.

The rain sprinkled on her body, blurring her vision, and she couldn't see the flashing signal lights.

She just ran out of the school, and then——

The truck sped by.

Snapped,

The sound of heavy objects falling into the water made Kishida Jun come back to his senses.

An umbrella with a bear pattern on it appeared in front of him at some point. The women's school uniform under the umbrella belongs to their school.

"Hello,"

"Would you like to hold an umbrella together?"

A familiar voice sounded, making Kishida Jun tremble.

This voice, this voice? ! No, it’s impossible, Miyashita, she’s already

Jun Kishida looked down. Under the umbrella was a pair of hands with blood stains; further down, was a skirt full of water stains; and the pair of shoes that were once scattered in a pool of blood.

"Ahhh."

Breathing quickly and his whole body stiff, Kishida Jun couldn't tell for a moment whether he was in reality or a dream.

"Would you like to hold an umbrella together?"

After the other party asked the question for the second time, Kishida Jun finally responded.

"Miyashita!"

"I want to apologize to you."

Faced with the figure that has haunted him for the past six months, Jun Kishida finally mustered up the courage!

"I've always liked you, but I couldn't act on it."

"I was actually very happy when you offered to hold an umbrella with me that day."

Regardless of whether it is reality or fantasy, the young man must say these words, these words half a year late:

"But I don't have the courage to step under the umbrella, all because of my boring pride."

"It was me who killed you!"

Putting his hands on his trouser legs, Kishida Jun bowed deeply to the other party at 90 degrees.

"sorry--"

"Would you like to hold an umbrella together?"

However, the answer to him was still the same question.

At the same time, because he bowed his head, Kishida Jun saw half of his face under the umbrella.

That's a face with blood mixed with rain dripping continuously!

As an outstanding student, the young Kishida Jun also knows a lot of urban legends. Although he once scoffed at it, now——

It’s ‘Rain Girl’!

Rain Girl is a very famous monster in the legend of the island country.

A woman stands in the rain. If a man smiles at her and gestures to her to share an umbrella, she will follow him forever. From then on, the man will always live in a humid environment, because ordinary people cannot withstand such heavy humidity, so he will die soon.

"Would you like to hold an umbrella together?"

Miyashita

Will you always do the same thing again and again?

The question rang in his ears again. Jun Kishida, who kept his bow, stretched out his right hand forward with trembling, just like a traditional confession.

"please let me"

"Hold an umbrella with you."

Finally, Kishida Jun's hand held the slender fingers covered with blood.

If I can let you rest in peace, even if you die...

"Unforgiven,"

?

The voice in front of him made Kishida Jun raise his head,

The umbrella was lifted back, revealing the full view of the person under the umbrella.

It was still the familiar face, still the refreshing single ponytail, but blood mixed with tears kept sliding down the girl's face.

"I don't forgive you."

Jun Kishida was ready to share an umbrella, but he was rejected by the other party!

"I will never forgive you, Jun."

The next second,

The girl disappeared out of thin air,

There was only one umbrella left in Kishida Jun's hand.

"Miyashita."

"Ryoko."

Holding the umbrella in his hand, with tears streaming down his face, the trembling boy stood alone under the eaves of the teaching building.

".sorry."

not bad,

On the branch nearby, a crow preening its feathers showed a flash of appreciation in its eyes.

Ordinary people without magic power were able to get rid of it on their own after eating a 'Narujian Jutsu'.

It must be said that this young man has a very strong spirit. And the fantasy just now made him have a good impression of this young man.

Originally, Akira Yuu only controlled this 'paper clone' to practice ninja techniques. Now that he met a good 'talent', he naturally wanted to use it.

"Oh, this is breaking the rules."

? !

A frivolous voice sounded next to him, causing the sad Kishida Jun to turn his head subconsciously.

It was a man wearing a white patternless hunting coat and a white patternless fingernail. Under a white high hat, he had flowing white hair, his face was as white as snow, and his facial features were unusually soft. Although his whole body was completely white, his pupils were as red as blood.

There are flame-like patterns on the cuffs and trousers corners. At first glance, they look like traces of blood infection.

"Obviously she is a charming rain girl, but she even gave her 'own' belongings to others."

The man in white clothes and crown shook his head slightly, with an expression of "the world is declining".

Reliance?

Glancing at the umbrella in his hand, Kishida Jun forced himself to calm down.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"You can call me 'Gui Jibai',"

Without touching the ground, the man floating next to Kishida Jun replied.

"Kishida Jun, you should have died. At the hands of 'Ame Girl' Ryoko Miyashita. But..."

Without the other party having to say anything, Kishida Jun already understood that it was Ryoko who let him go!

"Ryoko. What will happen to her?"

"How about it?"

The being who calls himself "Gui Jibai" sneers,

"The 'Rain Girl' who violates the rules will naturally end up in a very miserable place——"

"let me!"

Taking a big step, Kishida Jun held the umbrella tightly with one hand, and Kishida put the other hand on his chest.

"Please use my soul to replace Liangzi! Mountains of swords, seas of fire, pools of blood and oil pans. I have no complaints, please!"

"That's not okay. We in the underworld must follow the rules when doing things."

Gui Jibai shook his finger and rejected Kishida Jun.

"but,"

"If you help me with my errands, I might consider accommodating. Even..."

The graceful 'Kijibai' smiled and spoke, but in Kishida Jun's eyes, he was an out-and-out devil!

"It is not impossible to resurrect 'Miyashita Ryoko'."

demon!

But does he have the right to refuse?

"Can."
