"Um... well, I'm free now. What did you want to ask me just now?"

……

Pochi watched Aine take out her phone, then turned to look at Hailing on the other side, "Ha... Hailing, why didn't you take a photo with us just now?"

“I’m not very used to having my picture taken.”

"Yes...yes."

Is Hailing so cold, or is she in a bad mood? He picked up the milk tea that he and Aine had just bought and took a sip, while carefully observing Hailing's expression, but he didn't come to any effective conclusion.

Hailing's expression remained the same, revealing nothing. "So...what game would Hailing like to play later?"

"I'll just follow you."

"But...but, I also came out to play with Hailing today, but Hailing didn't look very happy."

Me? Unhappy?

After hearing what Pochi said, Hailing turned her head and looked at her, but she immediately avoided his gaze shyly.

Am I unhappy?

When I asked myself this question, even I couldn't give an answer. My daily life was just going to school, playing bass, and teasing Li Xi.

Except for the last one, I don’t think I have ever smiled at any other time, even now in the amusement park.

So……

Have you always been unhappy?

Maybe...it is true.

He looked at the people coming and going around, and his eyes fell on the place with the most people holding hands. "Then... let's go to the haunted house over there and have some fun."

Chapter 152 Help!!!

Chihaya Aine looked at Deng's reply on her phone and sweat broke out. It was over. Deng was even angrier. She had no idea how Pochi had angered her, yet she was saying this again...

I turned around and looked at Pochi beside me. She was chatting with Hailing, "Huh..."

When I get to school tomorrow, how should I face the lights?

【It's all right now.】

It took a long time for Deng to respond, but this response made Aine even more worried. It was hard to imagine Deng being angry...

"Ghost...haunted house?!"

Pochi's voice interrupted Aine's thoughts, "The haunted house and the like are just staff members pretending to be there, so it shouldn't be anything scary. So... we don't have to go..."

"But I'm quite interested."

Hailing said calmly, "When I can't sleep, I usually watch some low-budget cult movies to help me sleep, so I'm curious about what the haunted house will look like."

Eh? Cult film?

Aine, who seemed to know a thing or two about everything, looked at Hailing in shock. No, it was a bit hard to sleep watching this... Or was it that Hailing actually had a very wild heart?

"What is that... cult film?"

Pochi, who was in the middle, asked curiously.

"Well, that's a little hard to say. You'll have to see it for yourself to understand. Pochi-san, do you want to see it? I have some recommendations."

"Wouldn't it be a bit too exciting to show this to Pochi?"

Aine looked at Hailing and questioned, "After all...Pochi is still very simple."

"Um……"

Hailing pondered for a moment and nodded, "Indeed, Pochi-san should just stay like this."

"Eh? Why...why does it sound like you're saying I haven't grown up?"

"Well, don't worry about it, Pochi. We're going to the haunted house, right? Let's go now."

Aine stood up and took Pochi's hand, "It's my first time there too."

Regarding the lamp... I'll figure it out when I get to school tomorrow.

"Um……"

Hachiman Kailing followed their pace. Although she didn't want Pochi to be exposed to these things, she also thought about having someone to watch a movie with her when she was alone at home.

It doesn't matter if it's a cult film or not...

"Matcha Parfait~"

Lenai said this to Rinrinko as she sat at the front desk of Ring Cafe, as if 'Matcha Parfait' was her way of greeting.

"well."

Rinrinko looked at Lenai lovingly, "But you can only eat one. Eating too much in the summer will easily cause diarrhea."

"Got it~"

Lenai was lying at the front desk, enjoying the air conditioning and answered comfortably.

"Why does Lenai seem so happy today?"

After Rinrinko finished making the buffy, she placed it in front of Lenai, "Did something happy happen to you?"

"Going to play guitar, with Pochi."

As he said this, he couldn't wait to put a spoonful of Buffy into his mouth.

"Oh, no wonder you're so happy."

Seeing Lenna smiling so happily, Rinrinko also laughed, "No wonder Pochi and the others left their guitars here."

"Pochi...them? Deposit them?"

Lena was stunned when she heard Rinrinko's words. Why did she leave her guitar here in advance when she could just come directly from home? And who was Pochi with?

"Oh, yes, Lena, don't you know? That professional-looking bassist. I think her name is... Hachiman Kairei. She's also performed at Ring a few times, but she was always a support musician."

"Hailing?"

I seem to have some impression of her, but Lenai has never been good at remembering other people's names. "Did she bring an instrument too? A bass?"

"Hmm? Yes, that's right."

"Let me see."

"It should be fine if I take a look."

Rinrinko said as she took out Hailing's bass box, "This is it."

"Um……"

Sure enough, this is it. Lenai has an impression of this bass. She was there when she first played guitar with Pochi.

"what happened?"

Looking at Lenai who was actually lost in thought, Rinrinko asked curiously, "Does Lenai know her?"

"Um……"

It turns out that Pochi is with someone else again today... Suddenly, the buffy in my mouth doesn't taste good anymore. "Rinrinko, do you know what they're doing?"

"Hmm...I'm not sure about that."

"All right……"

I fed Buffy, which was a little more bitter than usual, into my mouth and sat here quietly waiting for Pochi to come back.

-

"Ah!!! Run! Hailing-san!"

"Actually, I didn't catch up."

"Eh? Is... is that so?"

Aiyin, who was walking at the end, looked back and saw that the scary guy with a piece of his scalp peeled off had indeed not caught up with them. "Huh... Actually, that's... that's all. It looks fake at first glance, so I'm not scared..."

Hachiman Kairei, who was walking in front, looked at them but didn't refute them. However, Pochi, who was between the two of them, didn't react at all. "Pochi-san, are you okay?"

"Eh? Oh... I'm fine..."

Ever since they were frightened to the point of shutting down when they first approached the haunted house, the three of them have been maintaining this formation.

Hailing walked in front, Pochi grabbed Hailing's clothes and stood in the middle, and Aine followed behind Pochi.

This way, Hailing would be the first to see those strange things and could warn the two people behind her. Aiyin was responsible for guarding the rear, but she still overestimated her resistance to these things.

Whenever she sees something strange, she hugs Pochi tightly and pushes the three of them forward. Pochi will also be squeezed onto Hailing's back, giving her some indescribable feeling.

Is it... so soft?

However, Pochi, who was sandwiched in the middle, was well protected, and basically no strange things could be seen.

"I...let's take a break."

After being chased for a while, Aine found that her legs were a little weak. Of course, it was not because she was tired, but she just didn't want to admit that she was indeed a little scared.

Hailing looked around. The decoration style was like that of a hospital ward, with a bed and a white curtain to block the view, and there were some bloodstains on it.

The obstructed view actually brought a sense of security. Of course, it could also be an illusion deliberately created by the staff. However, looking back at Aine's condition, Hailing still said, "Yeah, it's okay. There doesn't seem to be anything strange here. At least that's how it seems."

"call……"

Aine felt a little relieved after hearing Hailing's words and sat down on a hospital bed. I've never heard of a haunted house being this scary...

"I'll go look around."

Hailing looked at the bed curtains curiously, feeling that she could find something hidden there. At least that was often the case in the movies she had seen.

"Then...then I'll go too."

Pochi, who has been staying behind Hailing, has developed a sense of dependence and is unwilling to let go.

"Then I'll wait for you here for a while..."

Aine half-wanted to follow, but her legs were still shaky, and she watched as Hailing nodded and disappeared from sight with Pochi.

Then a cold wind blew, lifting the layers of bed curtains and blowing on Aine's neck.

"hiss……"

Looking around, I felt increasingly cold.

I shrank back into the corner. Shouldn't I be left here alone? I wish I could be as manly as Hailing...

With that thought in mind, I lowered my head and unexpectedly met a pair of eyes.

His head was wrapped in bandages and covered in blood, and he seemed to be holding a pair of oversized scissors in his hand, looking at him quietly under the bed.

"Hee~"

The strange man under the bed let out a strange laugh, and the corners of his bandaged mouth rose slightly.

"Help!!!!"

Chapter 153: Aine? (Indifferent)

"Ai...Aine?"

After hearing the scream, Pochi and Hailing rushed back to where they had separated from Aine, but she was gone.

"It seems to have run back to where we passed before."

Hailing made a judgment.

"So...what should we do now?"

"Um……"
