Chapter 102 The Withered Flower of Beauty
When Jiuzhiche woke up, he saw a whorl of hair.
Oh, it's Tomie.
He pulled his hand away from Tomie's embrace; although it was warm and comfortable, he had to get up.
As for Tomie coming up here on her own, he couldn't be bothered to say anything more.
bathroom.
Jiuzhiche looked directly at himself in the mirror, and when his gaze fell on his lips, a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
Last night in my dream, while we were kissing, Kayako disappeared.
It made him feel uncomfortable for quite a while.
It's like you're engrossed in a game and just need that pentakill, but then your computer crashes and you lose.
Ju-on Kayako is more easily embarrassed than the original Kayako.
If last night was Kayako herself...
Personal feelings aside, he has now confirmed one thing: the Kayako in his dream is a combination of the real Kayako and the Ju-on Kayako, but Kayako herself has no control over it and can only be an observer.
Kayako's self-awareness seems to be very weak, with only some instincts reflected in her.
For example, she listens to him, is very dependent on him, and has a strong sense of shyness.
The rest is no different from the original work.
It still harbors extreme resentment and murderous intent towards humans, and is extremely powerful in attack.
Logically, he should be happy.
But he always felt that Ju-on Kayako shouldn't exist.
If he had protected Kayako well, the future curse wouldn't have arisen. If he hadn't treated Kayako well, the future curse shouldn't have acted that way towards him; it should have been filled with resentment, but it didn't.
How did the curse originate and reach the present world?
The more I think about it, the more problems I find.
Jiuzhi Che shook his head, dismissing the chaotic speculations.
Live in the moment!
Don't think about things you can't figure out yet!
Otherwise, if you keep wasting your time internally, you won't be able to come up with anything.
Jiuzhiche went to school.
The legend of the campus becoming more beautiful continues, but with the spread of news about Shimada Junya, some more rational girls have chosen to observe or stay away.
Risa Chiba was one of those who were observing. Now, you can become beautiful without paying money, because many people have become beautiful without having to pay money to Chizuru Tanaka.
But recently, rumors have circulated that this kind of "beauty" is dangerous, so she's become less willing to get close.
Let's wait and see.
After school today, her boyfriend Xiuer invited her to his house, and she was going to dress up nicely.
Kayako was too shy to look at her deskmate today.
Last night she dreamed that she kissed Che. As soon as she saw Che, she couldn't help but want to pounce on him, but that might scare him, so she restrained herself and didn't look at him.
Jiuzhi Che discovered that ever since he stopped carrying his own pen and started borrowing Kayako's pen, he had never dropped a pen again.
Something seems to be on the verge of being revealed.
He found it somewhat amusing.
Today, he specifically observed Kayako out of the corner of his eye and noticed that her condition was noticeably different.
This corroborated his conjecture.
Kayako has memories of last night's dream.
Is the real-life curse Kayako in Kayako, in him, or in the black cat Kuro?
It's not apparent yet.
At least in the short term, Ju-on Kayako shouldn't harm him, and that's enough.
Mr. Takagi came to class with a big bump on his head; he had a headache, in a physical sense.
He didn't remember what happened, only that when he woke up, there was no one around, and he had a big bump on his head and a stomachache.
The only good news is that he didn't feel that way of being watched last night, and hopefully he never will again.
Today, Mr. Takagi, who seemed to be in good spirits, finally regained some energy and started paying attention to Kyushu.
He was somewhat relieved that this student, who was the one he most liked to ask for leave during his teaching career, hadn't asked for leave recently.
It's just that he and his deskmate were sitting a little too close together.
By the way, it seems that Jiuzhiche is playing both sides.
Thinking of this, Mr. Takagi couldn't help but think of Tomie, a girl so beautiful that he couldn't help but take a second look. He hadn't had time to think about her before, but now that he had some free time, he inexplicably thought of her.
He might be...
Physical education class time.
While other classes were running, Jiu Zhiche was strolling around.
Kayako volunteered to buy him water. He looked up at the scorching sun and saw a few beads of sweat on his forehead.
The playground was crowded. Jiu Zhiche was holding a basketball. Basketballs are a great way to show off. If he played well, it would be no problem to elicit screams from the crowd.
He knows how to fight, but he won't actually fight, because he presents a low-key and aloof image to the public.
The main goal is to avoid a repeat of the case of Hashimoto Yoshimi. Although our strength is not what it used to be, we want to minimize any trouble.
I wonder where Hashimoto Kazuya has run off to. She was a girl with superhuman strength, much stronger than any man, and could easily summon the Lust Demon, one of the Seven Great Demons. Thinking back on it now, I always felt that she was quite extraordinary.
While idly lost in thought, Jiu Zhiche didn't notice that he was the center of attention for almost all the girls in the room.
A basketball bigger than his head was manipulated in his palm with great skill, twirling between his fingers, bouncing onto the back of his hand and fingertips, the ball spinning steadily and quickly, demonstrating the dexterity of his fingers.
A girl blushed when she saw his hand, and was teased and joked about by the girls in his group.
"Sadako, look, isn't that the boy you're destined to meet?" Morinaka Kazuko nudged Sadako's arm with her elbow when she saw Kyushige Tetsu.
Sadako glanced over instinctively and saw Jiuzhi Che casually playing basketball in the sunlight. Her eyes were fixed on him for a long while.
Just like that, quietly, the boy and the light of that moment were hidden in the memories of youth.
Everything was silent, yet it seemed as if some subtle emotion was flowing through it.
The emotions of time will ferment, the small seeds planted will sprout, and one day they will blossom and bear fruit, brewing fine wine.
"Sadako, it's our turn to run," Kazuko Morinaka reminded her.
"They're here."
Sadako looked away, a pang of reluctance crossing her heart.
"Jiuzhi, have some water."
Kayako jogged over. Although she had done some exercise, she hadn't broken a sweat. Her hair was slightly disheveled, and she didn't dare look at Jiuzhi Che. Instead, she looked down, and then, upon seeing something, her face instantly turned red.
"Are you hot?"
Jiuzhi Che reached out and touched Kayako's forehead, feeling that her temperature was a bit high. Hmm, it's even higher now.
Kayako's eyes darted around, unsure what to do. "N-no, it's nothing, I-I-I'm fine!!"
"I'll chill it for you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Kayako felt the cool water bottle pressed against her forehead, and the lingering heat dissipated by more than half.
A slightly ticklish laugh landed by her ear, making her earlobe feel warm.
"Slow down, you'll get heatstroke, okay?"
"Yes..." Kayako almost couldn't help but lick her lips. "I understand."
Seeing that her complexion had cooled down, Jiu Zhiche took down the water bottle, unscrewed it, and took a big gulp.
"I... I'll carry it for you."
"Here you are."
Kayako received the bottle of water and smiled happily.
Several classes were running around there. Jiuzhiche looked over and saw Sadako's figure.
Suddenly, he raised an eyebrow. Next to Sadako was Tanaka Chizuru!
The crucial point is that Tanaka Chizuru was swaying precariously, her face as pale as paper, and it was clear that she was about to collapse!
When willpower reaches a certain critical point, that is when it collapses!
Tanaka Chizuru collapsed—
The momentum from running, combined with the pressure of a person's weight, means that if someone collides with you, the impact will definitely cause them serious injury!
Nearby, Sadako sensed the change in the wind and sound, and her expression subtly shifted.
Kazuko Morinaka was also nearby, and she screamed, "Little one—!"
