The losers in daily youth have all become witches

"Chihaya-chan! Love you!"

Yuigahama Yui hugged Chihaya Asagumo with tears in her eyes, making the latter smile helplessly.

"Yui, who can say such things so easily, is quite impressive in a sense."

"Ah, I accidentally did it again... But I really like Chihaya-chan. Of course, it's just a close, intimate crush between girls, not the kind with lilies blooming in the background."

Yuigahama Yui then looked curiously at the girl in her arms who always looked gentle and elegant: "Speaking of which, Chihaya is such a powerful person, doesn't she have her own small group?"

"I'm not really interested in that kind of thing. But as long as my grades are good, everyone in the class will be more or less open to me. Sometimes when they want to go out and play, they'll try to invite me along."

"So it seems Asakura-san hasn't joined any social circles in class. Are all top students like this? A mere mortal like me can't possibly learn from their social skills..."

Yuigahama Yui sighed.

"If you don't mind, could you let me go? I'm preparing some tea, and it wouldn't be good if the hot water hurt you."

Asagumo Chihaya said softly.

"Ah, sorry."

Yuigahama Yui quickly let go of Chihaya Asagumo, and the latter breathed a sigh of relief - although the word "majestic" could not be used to describe it, but compared to her little lotus that had just begun to emerge, Yuigahama Yui was already quite large, and it did feel a little difficult to breathe when she was suddenly hugged.

And it will also subtly penetrate the defense and cause psychological damage...

"Chihaya, do you use this kind of transparent glass to brew tea? It seems quite rare. I thought you would definitely use one of those high-end-looking black tea cups."

"Because we're going to practice making craft tea today, is Yui interested?"

"Yes, yes! This is my first time drinking craft tea. What kind of tea is it?"

Asagumo Chihaya kept the question in suspense and did not answer directly, but continued to warm the teacup with a faint smile.

Yuigahama Yui watched her movements, and her originally chaotic mood inexplicably calmed down.

She felt like she had some understanding of why the 'tea ceremony' had become an art.

"I wonder if Liuli Liuli will come here today."

The girl picked up a topic at random.

"Senior Xiao Liuli still has two younger sisters to take care of. I'm afraid her long vacation won't be as leisurely as ours, so I'm afraid she won't have time to come here."

Chihaya Asagumo responded slowly.

The girl put the tea leaves that had been soaked in water and had their astringency removed into a glass, and placed a dried flower bud on top. She then poured the hot water into the glass as gently as possible.

Then Yuigahama Yui opened her eyes wide, watching the flower bud that had long lost its vitality come alive again. Under the effect of hot water, the petals slowly opened on the tender green new tea leaves that looked like grassland.

It was clearly just a scene that lasted a few minutes in a small glass, but it inexplicably gave the girl a feeling of being moved, as if she was gazing at another world and experiencing the long time it took for a flower to bloom.

"Wow! Is this craft tea? Let's not talk about the taste, it looks amazing just by looking at it!"

Yuigahama Yui sighed.

"Unfortunately, the flavor is just regular green tea with a hint of floral notes. They say that exceptional craft teas can even create the aroma of spring, but I'm far from qualified enough to brew one for others."

Chihaya Asagumo said modestly.

"It's already amazing! I think it can be sold! Who are you brewing it for, Chihaya-chan, to be so strict..."

Yuigahama Yui took a sip and her tongue stuck out because of the heat, but she still exclaimed that it was delicious.

"...Let's talk about something lighter, like your midterm test results, Yui."

"It's not easy at all. Not to mention it's so heavy that I'm trying to escape reality by hiding in Napoleon's mouth..."

Although it was obvious that Asagumo Chihaya was trying to change the subject, the considerate pink-haired girl didn't point it out. She just carefully sipped a few sips of tea, sighed contentedly, and looked rather absent-minded: "I wonder if Asakura-san is doing well now."

After she said that, Chihaya Asagumo also showed a worried expression. She came to the association's hut because she was a little worried about Li Mo - after all, not long after Li Mo arrived at Yunqu Mountain yesterday, she couldn't get the other party's GPS information. Even if she tried to contact him by phone, she would only get a reply that the other party was out of range and could not be contacted.

Even if I wanted to help, if the strange story about Yunqushan that was full of malice towards women was true, I would probably be unable to help at all and would even cause trouble for the other party.

"I hope it's just the bad signal at Kumoqu Mountain..."

In the end, Chihaya Asagumo could only say this.

At this time, the sound of the door opening was heard at the door of the association's hut.

"excuse me."

Then, a petite girl walked in slowly.

"Isn't this sister Jiashu? Long time no see!"

Yuigahama Yui ran over like a big golden retriever and hugged the other person.

So Chao Yunqian had watched helplessly as Onmizu Yoshiki's expression changed from a gentle smile to the sadness of a wounded heart, and then to the appearance of almost turning gray due to suffocation.

"Well, even though Xiao Jiashu doesn't appear very often, there's no need for you to get so excited, right?"

Chihaya Asagumo pulled Yuigahama Yui away.

Obviously, this guy wasn't so unreliable before.

Wait, could it be that it’s my fault for letting her unleash her nature just now?

Looking at Onmizu Yoshiki's expression as if he had survived a disaster, Asagumo Chihaya decided to bury everything deep in her heart and pretend that she knew nothing about it.

"Is sister Jiashu coming to play with us today?"

Yuigahama Yui asked happily.

"That's not the case. I heard Asakura-senpai was going to explore Mount Kumotori... It sounded familiar, so I was a little interested. I did some research and found out that a classmate of mine used to live near Mount Kumotori. She told me there are actually many strange stories circulating in Mount Kumotori that haven't been recorded online. One of the most famous ones is..."

Yoshiki Onmizu said seriously: "...Chihaya-senpai, Yui-senpai, have you heard the story of the Kamado family in the second year of the Taisho era?"

Chapter 117: Riot.

When Li Mo woke up, he found that there seemed to be some commotion in the camping site.

When he came out of the tent, he saw Kagamihara Nadeshiko yawning as she came out of the tent next to him.

"What happened?"

The girl rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked in a daze.

"I'm not sure... I'll go take a look."

Li Mo said this and walked quickly towards the place where the commotion happened.

When he got closer, he found that it was a male hiker who was grabbing the collar of the campground owner and loudly asking him something.

After listening carefully for a while, I found out that the other person came here camping with his girlfriend. As a result, his girlfriend went out to the toilet this morning and disappeared. She has not been found yet.

So the other party went to the boss to argue, but the boss said he had never seen his girlfriend at all. The two quarreled more and more fiercely and almost got into a fight.

Seeing that no one around seemed to want to stop it, Li Mo could only step forward and separate the two.

Although the male climber was still reluctant to let the boss go at first, when Li Mo pinched his palm, he instinctively let go as if he was burned.

Li Mo urged his boss to go back and call the police, while comforting the male climber and asking him what happened.

"I shouldn't have let her go to the bathroom alone. I should have accompanied her. There are so many snakes around here. I should have noticed something was wrong from the beginning."

The male climber felt extremely guilty.

"I don't think it has anything to do with snakes..."

Li Mo said dryly.

However, for the uninformed, suddenly discovering a lot of snakes around - even if their actual number is more than ten times that discovered - is obviously a very ominous thing, probably second only to waking up to find the surrounding trees full of crows waiting for dinner.

The climber held his head in pain.

"What if she runs into Da○Maru?"

"Is this what's bothering you? Are you serious?"

"Let's take a step back and think about what we'd do if we ran into Bo Hancock!"

"So, those are just characters in the anime! Right now, there are more important things to worry about, right?"

"Damn it! I want to meet Boya Cooke too!"

"I'm completely confused as to whether you like your girlfriend or not."

"Anyway, let's find a time machine first..."

"You're overthinking it, calm down!"

"Sorry, my mind is in a mess right now."

The climber took a deep breath and his expression looked calmer.

"No matter what happens, the best option is to calm down first."

Li Mo nodded and encouraged.

"Yes, don't worry, I have completely calmed down."

The other party seemed to have calmed down a lot. He continued with a serious face: "In this situation, we should first find the Anywhere Door..."

"Isn't this completely incapable of calming down?"

Li Mo, who was unable to obtain any information from the confused mountaineer except for his sexual fetish, first avoided others and went to the forest to communicate with the snakes. After confirming that they did not find anything unusual, he returned to his tent.

"Welcome back, what happened over there?"

Kagamihara Nadeshiko was almost fully awake at this time. Although there were still a lot of alopecia on her head, at least she couldn't speak clearly like before.

Li Moyan briefly told her what happened over there.

"To think something like this would happen..."

Kagamihara Nadeshiko said in surprise, blinking her sapphire-clear eyes.

"Come to think of it, there are already some bad rumors about Kumotorishi Mountain. Why did you come camping in the mountains, Miss Kakumihara?"

Li Mo asked curiously.

“Because the mountain is there?”

The girl responded uncertainly.

"That's a line from a mountaineer."

"Ahahaha... Actually, before the holiday, when Zhima Rin was telling me about the precautions for camping, I accidentally fell asleep and only heard about Mount Kumotori. I thought she really recommended camping here."

The girl said with an awkward smile.

Before the two of them finished their conversation, the campground owner had already returned from his convenience store.

He held a loudspeaker and conveyed the notice from the police station to everyone present.

Although it is not known whether the missing woman was simply lost or was tragically murdered, if the latter did happen, there is a high probability that the perpetrator was among the campers present.

The boss said that in order to prevent the prisoners from escaping, the police asked everyone to temporarily stop leaving the camping site and wait until they arrived.

Some campers who had other plans for the day immediately booed in protest, but the owner said he could do nothing to help. Perhaps fearing the anger of dissatisfied travelers, he said that those who leave will do so at their own risk, and quickly slipped back into his convenience store and never showed up again.

"Oh, this is troublesome. I was planning to go down the mountain today..."

Kagamihara Nadeshiko said worriedly as she pulled out her phone: "Anyway, I'll let my sister know first... Hey, why is it outside the circle?"

After she said that, Li Mo also took out his mobile phone and found that his phone also showed as out of circle and had no signal at all.

It would be fine if it was in the deep mountains and forests, but Kumotoriki is located in the suburbs of Tokyo. Even if it is on the mountain, as long as it is not too far away from the mountain trail, there should be no signal.

"Tsk, this is really unfolding like a horror movie."

Li Mo glanced at the gloomy sky and couldn't help muttering.

However, unlike the isolated Blizzard Villa, the mountain roads on Yunqu Mountain are well built.

Driving from the foot of the mountain, even if you can't drive too fast on the mountain road - after all, not everyone is called Fujiwara Takumi and can drift on a five-bend mountain road - it will only take about an hour to get there. Add the time it takes to dispatch the police from the nearest police station, and you will wait for two hours at most, so you will definitely wait for the police.

At this moment, Li Mo suddenly found that the girl next to him seemed a little strange.

A faint cherry color appeared on her pretty little face. Although she didn't do anything, the girl leaned forward slightly, clamped her legs in black leggings together, and trembled slightly, giving people a feeling of being shy.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Li Mo asked kindly.

"No, it's not..."
