Facts have proved that the inhumane rituals in the Ice Room Residence and the Sleeping House are indeed very good at causing pain. In the early morning, before the sun has even had time to rise from the horizon, the tormented witch ghosts

All his pain and resentment were transferred to the woodcutter in the form of tattoos, and the latter's pain made Frostmourne extremely satisfied.

When Fang Zheng returned to the center of the lake again, what he saw was Frostmourne looking like he was full of food and wine. If we use animation to describe it, Frostmourne with a round belly was sitting on the ground and picking his teeth in contentment.

, there will also be a bunch of barrages next to it saying, "The child is a few months old, I'm sorry, everyone, the child is mine."

After that, Fang Zheng sent the resentful spirits back to the underworld, and then closed the gate to the underworld. Soon, the night spring, which had been penetrated by the evil spirits like black water, returned to its original clear and transparent appearance.

But it's not over yet.

After that, Shizuku went to the local mayor and told him that the problem of going up the mountain had been solved and that the tourism development project could be restarted. Although Shizuku had previously complained to the Dog Boy Police Department about the development of tourism in the suicide holy land, there was no return.

One-way ticket, but now that the problem of going up the mountain has been solved, she naturally hopes to solve this problem once and for all.

Although Shizuku has now sealed the Gate of Underworld here, if it continues and people come to commit suicide as often as before, a second Gate of Underworld and Night Spring may appear, so the best way is still

Developing it for tourism and then removing it as a suicide resort - I have to say that the local government has a good idea, but they started to implement the plan without investigating the situation clearly.

Shizuku is not worried that the local government will reject his proposal. After all, this is already a big project in this place, and so much has been invested in the early stage. If he does not continue to grit his teeth and persist, then all the early investment will be sunk costs. For

For the local government, this is obviously an unbearable deficit.

Sure enough, after hearing that Shizuku had solved the problem of Higamiyama and received confirmation from the Metropolitan Police Department, the mayor of Higamiyama was also very excited. He was originally troubled by this tourism development incident, and now

He was relieved to hear that it could continue and there would be no more supernatural incidents.

Shizuku, on the other hand, has a lot of things to be busy with.

For example, in order to prevent Rishang Mountain from becoming a suicide mecca again, she simply invested in the local Rishang Mountain tourism development project in the name of her firm and became the largest shareholder. The local government was originally in trouble because of this problem, but now someone is willing to take over.

, they naturally happily gave away the hot potato.

So next, Shizuku began to contact the engineering team at Higami Mountain to clean and rebuild the previous foundation parts. The bones also had to be collected. As for the dolls from Katashiro Shrine, they also had to be taken away, and the part in the center of the lake was

It needed to be renovated to avoid intruders... Considering that she could not stay here for a long time, Shizuku handed over the management of the site to Kurosawa Mitsuka. After all, she knew about Higamiyama better than anyone else, and she also

Know how to deal with it.

Mikka Kurosawa was a little uneasy about the heavy responsibility Shizuku gave her, but in the end she nodded and agreed.

After that, Shizuku led a group of people back to the office.

Compared with when he went there, there are two more people around Shizuku... They are Kurosawa Aiyo and Shirogiku.

I have said before that when Dazhu and Zhongzhu were soaked in the night spring, they were in the state of "permanent flowers", which is a bit similar to artificial hibernation. As long as their spirits do not collapse, their bodies will not die. White Chrysanthemum Spiritual Power

It's extremely strong, and it's just the middle pillar, so there's no problem at all. As for Kurosawa Yuiyo, as a big pillar, although she once suffered the pain of a miko being killed, which brought her to the edge of collapse, fortunately, she still maintained her sanity.

So Shizuku directly purified the night spring water that penetrated their bodies and woke them up.

After all, now that the Gate of the Underworld has been destroyed, they no longer need to continue guarding the Night Spring as human pillars. Of course, as people from a hundred years ago, the two of them were quite curious about the outside world along the way. Although over the years,

There are many people who commit suicide in the mountains in the past day, and as human pillars, they will accept the memories of those who committed suicide. They will not be as ignorant of the outside world as the savages who came out of the mountains, but the memories they absorb are those of others after all.

It was the first time for them to see the outside world with their own eyes, so for the two of them, the scene outside was quite fresh and interesting.

But for Hinasaki Crimson... she's a bit resistant.

“……… Do you really want to put these dolls in the office?”

Looking at Shizuku who was placing the dolls, Hinasaki couldn't help but ask in deep red. Shizuku placed a kimono doll in the corner, posed for it, and then turned around.

"What? Don't you always feel that the office is empty? Isn't this just right?"

"But... there are so many dolls, it's too scary."

Looking at the office in front of her, Hinasaki couldn't help but protest. The original office could be said to be very monotonous. Apart from a TV, a desk and a sofa, there was nothing else. But now, in Shizuku's office,

After bringing these dolls from the Dai Shrine back, the entire office was filled with dolls of various sizes.

In particular, those life-size dolls wearing kimonos were placed by Shizuku in the corners of the walls and even at the end of the corridor. Not only in the office, but also on the third floor, they were filled with these dolls.

Hinasaki Crimson imagined that she opened the door early in the morning, and then saw a doll standing in front of her with her head lowered - that must be bad for the spirit.

"Isn't this the only way to prove the uniqueness of our firm? Didn't you complain before that because this firm doesn't look like it solves supernatural events at all, many clients are confused about the situation. Now you see it is so full of

The decorations and furnishings with a supernatural smell will never be mistaken again."

"...Sister Jingshui Jiu, what do you think?"

Since she couldn't convince Shizuku, Hinasaki Crimson had no choice but to recruit allies, but...

"I think this is good. The original office was empty, so it's more beautiful this way."

"......Miss Xuena?"

"Why??"

Hearing Hinasaki's crimson voice, Yukina, who was staring at the doll in fascination, turned around and smiled sheepishly.

"I think these dolls are quite cute..."

"Miss Wuzhi?"

"What does it matter?"

Bonzhi Wuzhi sat lazily on the sofa, drinking black tea and watching TV.

"Anyway, these are just simple dolls, and there are no evil spirits inhabiting them. There is nothing special to worry about."

"………………"

No, it seems there is still a gap in aesthetics between humans and monsters.

In the end, Hinasaki Crimson had no choice but to give up.

"Huh..."

After a busy day, Shizuku dragged her tired body back to her room. This time the trouble was not over yet. Next, she had to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to report the results of the Hiyamiyama incident to the Inu Dou Ranko Police Department.

There are also the identities of Kurosawa Toyo and Shirogiku... They were people from a hundred years ago, and they need some information to start their lives again in this world.

Kurosawa Aiyo is easy to talk to, and she can be allowed to follow Hinasaki Crimson, but Bai Ju is more troublesome. Girls of this age should be sent to school...

While thinking, Shizuku fell into a deep sleep.

When she opened her eyes again, what she saw in front of her was not her own room, but an old-looking Japanese-style bedroom.

"Is this...a dream?"

Shizuku stood up, walked to the door, and then opened the paper door. Outside the door, an old woman with a stooped figure was standing there. When she saw Shizuku coming out, she bowed to Shizuku respectfully.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Kasugano-sama."

"You seem to be... a married woman, what are you doing?"

Shizuku stared at the old woman in front of her and asked doubtfully. If she remembered correctly, the old man in front of her should be one of the shrine maidens on Mount Rishang, but now that she appeared here to entrust her with a dream, what did she want to do?

"plz follow me."

As she spoke, Yume's mother-in-law turned around and walked forward, while Shizuku followed her out of the room and walked along the corridor - then, the two stopped in front of a door, and then Yume

The mother-in-law opened the paper door and motioned for Shizuku to walk in.

"???"

Shizuku tilted her head in confusion, then walked into the room, and then the paper door closed gently. At the same time, the originally dark room suddenly became brighter.

And what happened next, Shizuku couldn't help but be surprised by the scene in front of her.

Under the illumination of the lantern, I saw several girls dressed in white and dressed like brides sitting there quietly on the tatami in the room in front of me, and all of them were familiar faces.

Hinasaki Crimson, Kurosawa Rei, Kurosawa Aiyo, Shirogiku, Amakura Yu, Amakura Mio... Six girls dressed in bridal clothes, kneeling on the tatami, seemed to be waiting for something. Hinasaki

Crimson and Kurosawa Rei were talking in a low voice, Amakura Yu and Amakura Mio were also whispering something to themselves, only Baiju and Kurosawa Moise were sitting there motionless on their knees.

As if they noticed Shizuku's gaze, the girls suddenly raised their heads and looked at her.

"…………"

What the hell is this? A secret marriage? Is this asking me to choose a bride?

Seeing the scene in front of her, Shizuku was confused and had no idea what the witches on Mount Hijo were doing.

But even though she didn't know what was going on, she had only one answer.
Chapter completed!
