There should also be a secret room with an old-fashioned seal on the door, emanating an ominous and eerie atmosphere.

Now it seems that I have thought too much.

Yotsuya Miko tidied her long hair and looked down at her school uniform, which was completely soaked.

It's even... a bit transparent.

"Go take a shower."

Ye Xing took a set of clothes from the room next door and placed them on the table.

"After you take a shower, change out of your clothes and let them dry. Wear mine for now."

"it is good."

Yotsuya Miko looked completely soaked; she definitely needed a bath. It was impossible for her to walk around the room in those wet clothes.

She picked up the set of clothes from the table and was about to walk towards the bathroom when she suddenly stopped and looked at Ye Xing, who was sitting there, with a slightly wary expression.

"You...you weren't peeking, were you?"

"Hey, what are you saying? I'm a gentleman."

Seeing Yoshiki's righteous and indignant demeanor, before Yotsuya Miko could even breathe a sigh of relief, she heard the other party immediately change the subject.

"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. If I say I'll peek, then I will definitely peek. You can rest assured."

"you..."

Yotsuya Miko gritted her teeth and said resentfully.

"Then I won't wash it."

"Oh, threatening me? Wash it or not, it's up to you, but..."

Yohoshi's gaze lingered on Yotsuya Miko for a moment before he casually waved his hand.

"Anyway, your current outfit doesn't make any difference, does it?"

Upon hearing this, Miko Yotsuya's pretty face instantly turned bright red.

The quality of the uniforms at Zongwu High School is just so-so.

After it got wet, even the color of the underwear underneath became blurry.

Not to mention, she was wearing a dress.

"you are vicious."

Yotsuya Miko gritted her teeth and said something before resolutely walking into the bathroom.

She took off her wet clothes and put them on the sink next to her, then went over and turned on the shower.

The perfectly heated water poured over her body brought some comfort to Yotsuya Miko, who had first been terrified by the evil spirit, then experienced a high-altitude bungee jump, and finally ended up soaked to the bone by the torrential rain.

"call..."

Yotsuya Miko breathed a sigh of relief, as the chill on her body was dispelled considerably.

"What exactly happened today?"

She recalled what had happened in the unfinished building, her eyes filled with deep worry.

Every evil spirit that appeared in that building would be a powerful being capable of running rampant in the outside world.

In addition, there was that python-like monster with vertical eyes.

Are all these effects brought about by the "gate" scandal?

Miko Yotsuya turned off the shower, picked up her phone from the sink, and searched online for the street where the unfinished building was located, combined with the keywords "construction crew casualties."

A news article that caught her eye made her so shocked that she covered her mouth.

"This is!?"

A major accident occurred at the construction site, resulting in a death toll of 285 people. Thirty-seven people are currently receiving treatment in the hospital.

The news was published exactly half a month ago, which corresponds to what Ye Xing said about frequent accidents at the construction site.

Detailed information is provided below.

The incident began when several construction workers, for reasons unknown, seemingly suffered a sudden mental breakdown and deliberately damaged the scaffolding.

At the same time, the person operating the excavator also lost his mind.

Even though the photos were blurred, Yotsuya Miko could still tell that the scene was a bloody mess.

"These guys..."

Looking at the horrific photos of the scene and the interviews with the families of the dead and injured, Miko Yotsuya gritted her teeth and clenched both hands into fists.

Ye Xing wrote in his notebook that evil spirits influenced by the "door" can influence, or even directly manipulate, the actions of the possessed person to a certain extent.

If it's just one or two people, it might simply be a coincidence.

Could it be that seven or eight construction workers simultaneously lost their minds and acted in ways that defied common sense?

This is clearly the work of an evil spirit.

Yotsuya Miko finally understood that hundreds of such powerful evil spirits would be lurking in that unfinished building.

Through the influence of evil spirits, a large number of humans in the surrounding area died.

They further enhance their influence over their surroundings by using the evil spirits formed from the wrongful deaths of humans.

And so, a ghostly realm was formed.

Does this mean that a "door" is a being with the ability to think and possesses independent wisdom?

Yotsuya Miko shook her head, temporarily setting aside her thoughts, and picked up the bottle of shampoo from the shelf.

When she tried to apply the shampoo to her hair, her hand froze in mid-air.

If you want to wash your hair...

It seems like I have to close my eyes.

Yotsuya Miko knew that Yohoshi was sitting in the living room outside, and it was highly unlikely that any evil spirits would appear in this room.

Knowing this doesn't mean I'm afraid; I'm still afraid.

After hesitating for a long time, Yotsuya Miko finally spoke, suppressing her shyness.

"Um... Ye Xing?"

To her surprise, Ye Xing's response immediately came from outside the door.

"Yes, what's up?"

031 Marker Point

Yotsuya Miko paused for a moment, then sighed helplessly, rubbing her forehead.

"...You were really spying?"

"Otherwise what? A gentleman's word is his bond, and we must see it."

Upon hearing this, Yotsuya Miko did not show any displeasure; she simply shook her head with a wry smile.

She had already checked before entering the bathroom.

The glass door connecting the bathroom and the living room is designed with double privacy protection.

After entering the bathroom, the shower stall glass is also privacy-protected, and there is a curtain outside.

Are you trying to spy?

Unless the night star has X-ray vision.

Wait a minute, could he really have it?

But then, Yotsuya Miko smiled self-deprecatingly.

If Ye Xing really had X-ray vision, would she need to spy on him while he was taking a shower?

Doesn't that mean you can spy whenever you want?

It's just unnecessary worry.

"Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for? I don't understand."

"If you don't understand, then forget it."

Since Yotsuya Miko couldn't figure out a reason why Yosei would spy on her while she was bathing, there was only one explanation.

The other person was standing outside the bathroom door, not there to peep.

Perhaps she was worried that an evil spirit was following her and would launch a surprise attack while she was taking a shower.

Or perhaps, it's simply a fear of feeling scared while taking a shower.

Whatever the reason, a thank you should always be said.

Through this incident, Yotsuya Miko felt that she understood Yohoshi a little better.

This guy...

Does she seem to have a slightly arrogant personality?

Of course, she couldn't say this out loud, otherwise who knows what strange things Ye Xing would say.

While Yotsuya Miko was washing her hair, Yohoshi, sitting outside the bathroom with her back against the glass door, was marking a map.

"Hmm... S-class area, more or less."

What he was holding was a map of Kyoto City, and he had marked the area where the unfinished building was located with the letter "S".

.......

After taking a shower, Miko Yotsuya muttered to herself as she dried her long, wet hair with a towel.

"This outfit of yours is a bit too big."

She wore a short-sleeved shirt with a star pattern on her upper body and shorts on her lower body. Her two fair and delicate little feet were on the floor, with cute light pink nail polish, making people want to play with them.
