This Japanese Story Is Not Too Cold

In the end, Kamiya Mirai hugged Kitagawa Temple for a long time.

After all, although this little girl said something bad, she didn't hesitate at all in her actual actions.

They held her like this for almost thirty minutes. Mirai Kamiya took a few more selfies as souvenirs before getting up and going home.

During these thirty minutes, Mirai Kamiya also explained the situation at Beijing Hoku High School to Beichuan Temple.

When this Saturday and Sunday pass, Jingbei High School will conduct its second exam, and everything will be conducted according to the last exam.

Now that the days are passing by, high school sophomores have already started to prepare for college interviews, college exams and other matters. For fresh graduates, the days ahead will only become more and more difficult.

"There is something more interesting, Temple-kun."

Mirai Kamiya continued cheerfully:

"Many students are working hard, saying they want to secretly remove you from your second place in grade."

Although Mirai Kamiya has a bad personality and is very enthusiastic about supernatural things, his good looks are there.

In addition, she has always been considered a victim of "bullying by the Great Demon King Beichuan" in the class, which arouses the concern of other students even more.

But these students probably didn't expect that the girl who they regarded as being 'bullied by the Great Demon King of Beichuan' would turn around and secretly tip off Beichuan Temple.

Kitagawaji glanced sideways at Kamiya Mirai, who was full of interest, and just nodded:

"oh I got it."

Seeing Kitagawaji's unconcerned look, Kamiya Mirai pouted: "Tera-kun, why don't you have a more excited reaction?"

"How do you want me to react?" Kitagawa Temple sat half-sitting on the bed, took out his mobile phone, and asked without looking up while scrolling through the messages on it.

Mirai Kamiya climbed onto the bed, rolled his eyes deftly, and then gestured and said: "For example, 'Humph, these little things are still trying to climb the peak of my Beichuan Great Demon King! They are simply asking for death...' Pain, pain, pain!" Temple-kun, it hurts so much!”

Before she could finish her words, Beichuan Temple reached out and pinched half of her cheek. However, she was not able to struggle out from under Beichuan Temple's fingers, which made her even more aggrieved.

Kitagawaji let go of his hand expressionlessly. He glanced at Mirai Kamiya who was rubbing his cheek, and said simply: "You have read too many strange novels."

"In the end, I don't need to waste any more energy on this kind of thing. I often take leave to go out to do work, so it's normal that my academic performance may not keep up."

His voice continued without any fluctuations: "So even if I am surpassed, it doesn't matter. I also have this self-knowledge, so I have no anger or unwillingness at all. I will naturally be surpassed without trying hard. This is of course After all, reality is not like fiction. Maintaining second place in grade without studying... This kind of thing is basically impossible."

Well...

Kamiya Mirai opened his mouth.

What Beichuanji said is quite right, but——

Mirai Kamiya blinked, tilted his head and asked, "So where do you think you will be in the exam next time?"

"Second in grade."

Beichuanji's voice replied without any pause.

"Huh????" Mirai Kamiya's eyes widened. She looked at Kitagawa Temple and opened her mouth again, and her originally fair face turned red.

After a while, Mirai Kamiya whispered: "Tera-kun, what you said doesn't seem to be consistent with the previous sentence..."

After hearing these words, Kitagawa Temple looked away from the mobile phone screen, raised his head and asked seriously: "In the future, do you like the kind of person who can obviously do well in the exam but insists on saying a few hypocritical words on his lips, 'This time? No, are you someone who did poorly in the exam?"

"dislike."

Kamiya Mirai also responded immediately.

Doing well in the exam means doing well in the exam, and doing poorly in the exam means doing poorly in the exam. There is no need to be secretive. The previous sentence sounds like a 'comfort' but in fact it has a bit of a 'show off' nature. If it's not good...

But... Kamiya has another question in the future.

Why does Beichuan Temple only say the second in grade? Instead of being first in grade?

In my memory, I only narrowly beat him by a few points last time. Why did Beichuanji not have the confidence this time?

Could it be Temple Lord...

The clever and eccentric Kamiya Mirai immediately had a bold idea in his mind.

But before Kamiya Mirai could express that bold idea, Kitagawaji's voice rang out.

"That's what you think now."

If Beichuanji was defeated in the first grade last year, then this time Beichuanji already has his own ideas in his heart...

It doesn't matter who gets first place in the grade, plus Kamiya Mirai is really smart...

Kitagawa Temple thought so and turned to look at Kamiya Mirai.

Under such a gaze, Kamiya Mirai's face turned red. After a while, he nodded gently and said in a small voice: "Okay, okay... I understand everything."

So don't look at me at this time.

The little person in her heart was running around noisily, and her heartbeat was rapidly increasing.

Then--

"I, I'm going home first!" Mirai Kamiya stood up from the bed with a snap, then hurriedly put on his slippers, turned around, opened the door and left quickly with small steps.

Kitagawa Temple stared at Kamiya Mirai's back, and after a while he shook his head.

Kamiya still won't be able to adapt to such straightforward statements in the future. It seems that she will have to increase her efforts in the future to get her used to it as soon as possible.

Kitagawa Temple withdrew his gaze and continued to look at his mobile phone.

In the bizarre Tokyo metropolitan area, horrific stories are produced all the time, but there are very few that stand out from them.

The reason why Beichuanji kept looking at his phone just now was because of a strange story that a fan sent to Beichuanji.

The title of the small private message is written in fine words——

‘Elevators and weird stories from another world. ’

It seems that this strange story is related to the elevator...

Beichuan Temple couldn't help but groan.

In fact, there are definitely quite a few strange stories about elevators in Japan.

Because most Japanese people believe that closed spaces such as "boxes", "wells" and "elevators" are media leading to another world. As long as you follow special ways and methods, you can enter another world through these media places.

And this is probably the main reason why this strange story is famous.

After all, it is an elevator-type ghost story that is quite popular in Japan.

However, Beichuan Temple doesn't really care about weird stories like this. After all, even if there is a special spirit summoning technique, there is no resentment strong enough to pull the living to go to the spiritual realm... it is impossible to pull them into that world.

And urban weird stories like this... To be honest, there are very few people who can be born in the spiritual realm. Like the one in the 'Mirror Apartment', it was because Hida Mana was born with superpowers, so she could freely control the spiritual realm after her death and quickly became a terrifying wraith.

But this time the strange story about the elevator...

It can't be that this is also a person with abilities causing trouble after his death, right?

Beichuan Temple picked up the phone and continued to look down.

‘Elevators and weird stories from another world. As the name suggests, this is a strange story about elevators. According to rumors, if you enter the elevator at 8:04 at night, and then press the floors in the order of 2418 in the elevator, the elevator you are in will take you to another world... As for what is in that world, what happened before What happened... is unknown. Because from the first step into that world, you have completely cut off contact with the outside world. What awaits you may be the ending of being eroded by unknown fear. ’

This strange story is written in a decent way, but whether it is actually such a thing is another matter for another time.

After all, since Beichuanji established the urban horror and supernatural homepage, it is unknown how many explanations about ghost stories it has received. However, most of the time, these ghost stories are basically just pure rumors.

He exited the private message box and glanced at the approximate time.

It is now seven o'clock in the evening.

According to Kamiya Mirai, Miuka Nakajima and Eri Kitagawa had already eaten, so there was no need for him to worry about cooking for them.

He sat up from the bed and took another look at the Kagura bell hanging on the wall.

There was no movement from the Kagura bell. It seemed that Asamiya Nagase and Kamizu Makie were really tired today, and their good intentions were pitifully absorbed by Nishikujo.

"In that case... let's go out for a while."

Beichuanji muttered something.

Go to the shopping mall in northern Beijing to have a meal, and then look at the switch.

This can be regarded as fulfilling one's promise to the god of Maki.

He stood up, then took his wallet, mobile phone, keys and other items with him, gave a few instructions to Kitagawa Eri and Nakajima Mika who were still enjoying Kyo confectionery, and left after a few words.

.......

Summer nights in Tokyo are still as hot as ever.

Due to the urban heat island effect, the temperature of the entire city of Tokyo has risen a lot.

In this case, Kitagawa Temple naturally did not hesitate to spend a few hundred yen. He took a can of orange juice and walked towards the shopping mall in northern Beijing.

In his impression, a certain counter in the supermarket where Asamiya Hitomi worked seemed to sell switches.

By the time he reached the mall, he had almost finished the orange juice in his hand. Kitagawaji threw the can into the trash can inside the mall, then took the escalator and walked straight to the supermarket.

After asking, Beichuan Temple also roughly knew that the counter for electronic products was on the outside, which was not particularly far from the entrance.

He walked in that direction, and then saw Hitomi Asamiya who was explaining to the customers with a gentle look on her face.

Her short hair was tied into a small ponytail, which was just about to emerge from the gap of the hat button, showing a smart and capable look.

Although the light blue striped salesman costume is not as elegant and beautiful as the clothes she usually wears, it still suits her very well.

But what surprised Kitagawaji the most was that Hitomi Asamiya was in charge of the electronic product counter facing teenage customers.

After all, this little girl always looks submissive every time she sees him, and is too shy to speak... Such a person is actually in charge of the electronic product counter...?

And judging from her skilled look, she should be able to communicate with others normally...

Beichuanji shook his head, throwing all these messy thoughts out of his mind, walked up and said hello:

"Asamiya-san."

"Here... may I ask what the customer needs... Huh?! Kitagawa-san?!" Hitomi Asamiya turned around with a smile on her face, and then she just looked at Kitagawaji.

Then--

An expression of panic and bewilderment suddenly appeared on her face, her head tilted back subconsciously, and then she sat down on the smooth floor with a snap.

"It hurts!" Asamiya Hitomi grinned.

Kitagawaji didn't know what to say to this girl who suddenly became reckless. He could only stretch out his hand and pull her up from the ground: "Are you okay? Asamiya-san?"

"No, it's okay!" Asamiya Hitomi shook her head and was about to continue talking, but her whole face suddenly turned bad.

It seemed that he was speaking too hastily, so he bit his tongue.

And it looks quite painful.

Seeing Asamiya Hitomi's dazed look, Kitagawaji also suggested in a timely manner:

"How about I tell the store manager and ask him to take you to have a rest?"

"No...it's okay." Asamiya Hitomi waved her hand, covered her mouth, her face flushed, and said vaguely: "There's no need to trouble the store manager."

"...No need...?" Beichuan Temple frowned: "I think it's better to take a rest, right?"

Asamiya Hitomi took a few deep breaths and gently moved her tongue.

Although there is still some pain, I can still speak normally.

only...

Hitomi Asamiya glanced at Kitagawa Temple cautiously.

Why did Kitagawa-san suddenly come here?

She didn't understand.

"I came here to buy some things. After buying the things, I went to eat." Seeing that she seemed a little confused, Kitagawa Temple explained to her in a gentle tone.

"Yes, really? Come here to buy things...so that's what it is." Asamiya Hitomi touched her little head with her hand, and then laughed twice, but soon she felt that such a silly smile was too funny. It was rude, so he stopped laughing, coughed twice and asked softly: "Then what do you want to buy, Mr. Beichuan? I can take you there to see the situation."

It seems that the tongue is still a little sore, otherwise Asamiya Hitomi wouldn't have to speak so softly.

Although Beichuan Temple wanted to help her use death energy treatment, but thinking about it carefully, it was not appropriate. After all, death energy treatment requires actual contact to complete the treatment process.

And the tongue is not a place that others can touch at will.

So he simply put the thought away and focused on the matter at hand.

Yes, he also has the purpose of buying a switch for Kamizaki Maki.

"Then I'm sorry for you, Asamiya-san. I want to see the switch1 game console."

Beichuan Temple said.

"Switch...? Okay, please follow me this way." Asamiya Hitomi took a deep breath and led the way for Kitagawa Temple.

It seemed that there was a 'work' reason, and Hitomi Asamiya was not as restrained as usual. She showed a bit of ease in front of Kitagawa Temple.

Thanks to Halseisen, Rhyslipus, Bantian Qingzhou, I want to change my name, and Ganzhao for giving me such a long name! Thank you so much!
