I'm a teacher in Tokyo!

However, at that very moment;

He tilted his head to the side and suddenly closed his eyes.

……

Tomie didn't want to sleep. The thought of that guy coming to her place tomorrow made her keep rearranging the things she had already arranged in a way that she thought would be better.

Her villa is very large, with a small garden on the fourth floor.

She usually hires a nanny and some workers to tidy up. Although it had been tidied up before, she always felt that some places were not suitable.

So, after learning that Yoshizaki Kawa couldn't come today but would come tomorrow...

She kept thinking about how to make that guy admire her aesthetic sense, and ideally kneel down in front of her, bowing down to her understanding of aesthetics.

In short, she wanted Yoshizaki to think that the villa was great and that she was awesome for being able to keep such a large place so well organized all by herself.

Tomie had even prepared her own words, such as saying that she actually cleans every day—although in reality, a cleaning service does it every week.

She sat on the bed, looked at the vase in front of her, and decided to direct the flowers toward the door.

But just then, Tomie blinked and suddenly felt a little sleepy;

"But now is not the time to be sleepy, Tomie. You have to make that guy's jaw drop!"

She shook her head, drank a glass of water, and her drowsiness disappeared.

Then he changed the direction of the vase and replaced the comic book with an English dictionary. That way, the guy would definitely think he was studying hard and wouldn't be giving him extra lessons!

Tomie gave herself a thumbs up for her cleverness!

……

Meanwhile, after Tomie easily shook off the weariness brought on by the curse.

The cult leader, however, still entered the dream.

Because in that lock of hair, there was not only Tomie's hair, but also—that saint.

Matsumoto Mizuki's hair;

Meanwhile, the last vestige of consciousness of Matsumoto Mitsuki, which had not been devoured by the Ouija board, was still lingering in Tomie's dream, having already passed through countless layers of dreams.

Tomie possesses the ability to create from nothing, so once a dream is created by her, it will continue indefinitely.

……

In the dream, in the room;

Naked, Matsumoto Mizuki still stared wide-eyed and opened her mouth, looking as if she had died with her eyes wide open.

Even her teeth were completely knocked out because the spirit of the Ouija board had entered her mouth before. From now on, all you can see is a blood-red, enlarged throat.

At that moment, her eyes suddenly twitched;

At the same time, the cult leader slowly stepped into the dream of the dead.

The cult leader still held the stone statue in his hand; he intended to complete the ritual in his dream.

But when he walked in, he found that everything here was gray and white, the ground was gray, the sky was gray, everything, even himself, had lost its color.

There was silence in my ears; there was no sound.

Strangely, he could feel that the vengeful spirits he had subdued were returning home. Of course, he knew that this was the feeling of the spirit writing on the Ouija board.

Since the spirit of the Ouija board was implanted into Kotoko's dream and became her guardian, it's perfectly normal for it to feel familiar with this place.

However, looking at this gray dream, the man still hesitated.

"Why are her dreams so strange?"

The cult leader was very puzzled. His years of experience immediately told him that there must be something wrong here.

"Was this a scheme orchestrated by Kotoko?"

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate and decisively smashed the stone statue in his hand onto the ground, intending to exit the dream.

However, the stone statue crashed into the ground, leaving a deep dent.

The earth is like the skin of a dead person, without any rigidity or elasticity.

And he did not wake up.

The man realized the seriousness of the problem, opened his mouth, and a pale face flashed past deep in his throat;

The next moment, he instantly transformed into a ghost, becoming the spirit of the Ouija board;

But at this moment,

In the far distance, in this gray world;

A golden giant wearing glasses, gleaming with golden light, his eight-pack abs as large as the map of the earth, rose from the ground, his body blotting out the sky, so large that it was impossible to see him completely.

On the other side of the gray earth, frantically crawling demons were emerging from the edge of the crack;

They number in the hundreds and thousands, densely packed, like countless long dragons.

In the world of dreams, theoretically, people should not have any physiological reactions.

But when he saw this scene, the cult leader still felt a chill run down his spine.

"Kotsuko Higa, what methods did you use?!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly began to flee.

Even the dead retain a will.

The most memorable thing she saw before she died will become the memory of her remaining soul.

And this memory was preserved in the dream created by Tomie.

Furthermore, these remaining memories will be magnified countless times under the influence of obsession.

A New Year's letter to book lovers, and a January monthly pass giveaway.

May the Year of the Dragon bring you good fortune and great luck.

I hope that in the new year, all of you big shots will become rich, find your other half, and meet the one in your life.

The following is a summary of the past year:

In the past year, this book was only on the shelves for less than a month before the author permanently lost his cow. With constant repairs and the recognition of many readers, it is now barely a two-dimensional work.

As the saying goes, digging a hole is easy, but planting a tree is difficult. In the new year, I hope I can achieve a surge in updates and bring new life to Niu Zi.

At last,

Thank you to all the readers who supported this book, and thank you to the two big names who sponsored it;

@HeartbreakSong @JustBigBigBigBig

Because the author believes that any reader who is willing to read through and support the author deserves the author's respect, the author will weigh and revise the work based on reasonable suggestions from readers.
