"Hmm, I'll ask again, is it really okay?""yes?" While skillfully spinning a ballpoint pen with his finger, the one who asked me with a sweaty face was my interviewee──"Niko Nico Mart", the manager of a slightly minor convenience store. In order to get a part-time job at a convenience store in a certain prefecture, a certain city, and a certain place, I just had an interview with this bar-code-headed old man whose face was shining with sweat. Was there a problem? At the end of the interview, he asked me with a somewhat apologetic look. What is it?“No, I think you probably also applied for a part-time job because you were attracted by the hourly wages here.” Hoho, this old man knows all too well. However, I feel that nodding honestly may be subject to deduction of points, so I try to make a well-behaved smile."No, no, that kind of thing.""It's okay, it's almost like that. Everyone, it's not a city here, and an hourly wage of 1,300 yen is attractive, isn't it?""Haa""But it's ab

Is it welcoming, or is it newcomer bullying? On the day of my first day at work, late at night the day after my interview, I got a glimpse of such a phenomenon for the first time in my life.◆◆◆"I'm 25, hey, that's annoying." The first person I met on my first day at work was Mr. Aoyama, the most veteran of the late-night group. I'm shy, but I'm thankful for him. I was a newcomer, and he carefully taught me about work."If there's anything you don't understand, don't hesitate to ask me. I'm a newcomer with high expectations.""Expectations?"“No, the store manager said that this child will last a long time!”"Oh, yeah""It's not only late at night, but because this place is a place, there are times when people don't come in until morning. Saying that, he tapped me on the shoulder. I had a strong image of being idle rather than busy when I heard that it was late at night, so I'm quite happy to be able to buy time by talking. I feel like I'm stealing my salary, but when I said t

"Oh, that story, do you want to hear it?"“Just in case."Yeah, but maybe it's better not to say it."“Hey, Aoyama-san."If you ask me, I'll be scared.""It's okay, I'm not scared.""Hmm, but I won't tell you. Sometimes it's better not to know." Hey. I won't say it after all."Hey, don't make that face." Saying that, he poked me in the cheek. In an instant, I get goosebumps from the nape of my neck to the bottom. Ah, there was something in front of me that looked even more frightening than a ghost..."If you want to know so much, why don't you ask Takenaka directly next time?""Mr. Takenaka...? Same late at night..."“Yes. Girl's mind……. Hahaha. Aoyama-san, you've already completed the construction of your heart."He's one year older than Hakamada-kun. He doesn't really talk much, but he's a good boy." don't you talk I'm a little worried about whether it would suit me, who tends to be shy."It's okay, if you get along well, you'll be able to speak as it is.""I hope so."

You were here a while ago, where have you been? Is it a toilet? Even so, I don't know how to say it's careless... How can I leave the store empty even though it's late at night and there are no customers. What do you do when a guest comes suddenly? If he doesn't come, I guess he's anticipating it. I was alone in the empty store. Even so, I have free time. The hands of the clock had already passed 2:30 midnight, and while I was being told about miscellaneous tasks, most of the work was done. Will it stay like this until morning? How many more guests will come before the sun rises? At this rate, I can probably remember the number of customers, their faces, and the things I bought. ....... Aoyama-san won't come back... suddenly. Feeling her gaze, I raise my head. The glass area of the magazine corner."Aoyama-san?" I thought. The other side of the glass is pitch black, and Aoyama-san is not a single fool. What is it? That happens often. I didn't pay much attention to it and ret

The automatic door, which had been left open until now, closed with great force, and then opened again. I thought it was closed again, and opened again without permission. The automatic door began to open and close repeatedly in front of me."……little by little" As expected of me, I also felt creeped out by that, and involuntarily took a half step back. Every time it opens and closes, mechanical sounds and chimes resound intermittently. Could it be... isn't it a malfunction...? Because it's obviously funny."Uhi -" That's when I unintentionally let out a stupid voice. I don't know how to put it into words, but it felt like something had passed right next to my right leg. A cool breeze brushed against my right leg. What is it……. Raise your face while rubbing the goose bumps on your legs. Then, the automatic door, which had repeatedly opened and closed until now, closed quietly, and then it repeatedly opened and closed and did not open on its own. It's strange to say this to

"Hey, Onii-chan, how long have you been sleeping? It's already noon.""Uruse" While groaning, I covered myself with a futon and turned over."Onii-chan" Don't be noisy, don't shake. Even though I had slept comfortably until just a little while ago, I was completely awakened by my sister's vulgar laughter, persistent clicks, and the roar of cicadas on the veranda. Even if I wake up once, I decided to sleep until 14:00 today. I won't give up on something like this, let's sleep again."Older brother""If you're hungry, boil somen and eat it yourself.""Eh""Eh, no. I'm tired.""You're a total waste of society for being lazy for this long because of your NEET habits.""... oh oh oh what is it now?!" Hearing the words that I couldn't ignore, I pushed the futon and got up. My drowsiness is gone now.“What are you doing towards your brother!"I don't care about freeters and NEETs." Let's fool! It's a line that would make freeters all over the country go crazy, that's...!"It's changed!

According to my sister. It's still fine to come by or pass by, but it seems that fairly strong or dangerous spirits can haunt customers and clerks, haunt them, and have a bad effect. It seems that even a person with inspiration can stay in that environment with a strong negative aura for a long time, and if it were a normal person, it would be outrageous..."What do you mean by outrageous things?""Come on" After eating the caramel pudding, my sister turned to the computer and continued."I don't know what will happen to me. Also, for some reason, there are many accidents every year near the sea of trees, and the other day there was an accident where a motorcycle jumped over a guardrail and fell into a cliff. Terushi""That has nothing to do with convenience stores.""It's said that the area around there is dangerous.""That's just an accident, let's do a psychic program.""Mmm... Onii-chan still doesn't believe in that kind of thing, does he?""Oh, don't believe me, what's the p

Again.... It was the same before. Unconsciously, I look at the glass-enclosed side. It's pitch black and empty, there's no one there. Be attracted. I feel it somehow. It's like someone is watching you... Or rather, it would be more expressive to say that I was being glared at. For some reason, I feel a strong gaze. feel like. Every time I feel it, the corner of my head hurts. No, what is this? It wasn't long after the day and night were reversed, and before I knew it, my body was raising its roots. When I was thinking about such a thing, the automatic door opened. Ah... someone came. Instinctively, she felt it. The door opened on its own like that time, and there was nothing that looked like a human being there."Welcome--" This is Pavlov's dog. I was astonished at myself when I spilled out of my mouth the routine lines that had become firmly ingrained in my habit. But--. Strangely, even though no one should have entered, I felt a faint presence at that time. Something other

"- So, that's all the story I experienced." If you say so with the feeling of folding a picture-story show after reading. Right and left of me, dozens of shaved heads lying down in front of me or sitting on the futons, like, huh. Whoa. Uhi or something. Hawa or something. I let out a sigh at the same time. Phew……. She seemed satisfied at last, and she was relieved. I never thought I would tell this story from beginning to end... I remember that horrifyingly. A strange and unusual story that I experienced in the summer of my 25th year that I will never forget. I've been telling this story over and over again to my lovely students who are members of the baseball club. It all started on the night of the summer training camp, when we were talking about ghost stories. Even though my way of speaking and the content of the story are scary, they are very popular with Chubo who loves such stories. As a result, the annual big event of the summer training camp has become the rule of "Direc

3 The four of them replied to each other separately, and left the cemetery while stumbling, saying that it was too bad they would miss the train. While being carried in a wheelchair and being swayed in various directions. I turned around there. Hinata--. I stare at the grave of the Hyuga family, where the smoke of incense still rises, as it recedes. Hinata is nowhere to be seen. There is incense smoke and a bouquet of flowers... Hinata is no more. The cemetery is still empty, and the fallen leaves are blowing in the wind. Seeing that, a particularly strong tailwind swallowed me who felt a little lonely. I felt like that was encouragement from him. I put the feeling of being pulled back in my heart. I tell myself that from this moment on, I will also set off on a new path."Abayo, Hinata" I slowly turned my face forward and muttered. --Abayo, Senpai--. Yes, I heard it from somewhere. I felt

The trees around the cemetery have turned red and the leaves are slowly falling. Overhead, countless red dragonflies fly here and there, seemingly busy searching for their destined partner. The lingering summer heat has passed, and the season is already dyed in autumn colors. The red dot-patterned blanket on her lap is my sister's personal item. If a man asks his mother how he can use such a woman. I was pushed through with a single point of insistence, just use it and run it. Even though it's not that cold yet, it's too much of an exaggeration to go outside. At the end of the day, she recommended me a woolen hat and a warmer."It doesn't look like this, does it? I'll tell you, it's not mine." The person I talked to was Hinata... not the tombstone of the Hinata family."I came to thank you, I'm late... I'm sorry... I really wanted to come a little earlier, but it's this mess, so it took a lot of time." Two months after that――. There were no problems with the test results, and I wa

"Thank you very much, Mr. Takenaka. It was a short time, but I'm really glad that I was able to work with Mr. and Mrs. Takenaka at that convenience store." I feel like my life has changed drastically. Even in a bad way. In a good way.“I have bad memories, and my body has become inconvenient.” I'm living like this thanks to everyone's help. And I couldn't be more impressed. I just somehow managed to live for 25 years. After 25 years, I finally realized something obvious that I should have noticed. When I realized that, I couldn't stop crying because I didn't know if it was frustrating or happy. Now I can feel from the bottom of my heart that I'm glad I noticed. I was valued by those around me more than I thought. And I, who thought that I just existed, was helpless, a weak creature that could not live without the support of those around me. And now I can feel gratitude for that support. In other words, what I'm trying to say is... everyone, everyone is "not alone", I guess.

Ayame, who was listening to Mr. Takenaka's proposal, did not know that the method would work, and furthermore, he would have to bear a considerable risk to make it work. I arrived at my alma mater before the sun even rose, and sneaked into the old school building. Saying that every minute is a race, he even broke the key soberly. The rooftop of a deserted old school building. Even without summoning him, Hinata appeared there with a frightening atmosphere. Lost what it used to be, now turning into an evil spirit that only tries to drag people to death."Even if it's only for a few years, if you stay in one place for a long time, your soul will be defiled and you'll become something terrible. When you first appeared in front of us, that girl..." Unable to form even his original form, he forgot who he was. He was generating his own spiritual magnetic field on his roof. Aside from the dialogue, if you take one step closer, it will attack you without delay."I told Takenaka to get out

"--Yeah, it's okay, it looks like you've been saved." The analogy applies, surfacing from the dark, cold ocean floor. I felt a faint light on my eyelids, and a certain weight around my lower body. I woke up Really, this time. I lifted my eyelids and stood still for a few moments, wondering again and again. The wind that feels like a swaying curtain, the voice of cicadas, and above all, the sun that I haven't seen in a long time. I was 80% convinced that this was real, but I still couldn't let my guard down. Because.... A man in a suspicious suit, who must have been there before I opened my eyes, is sitting majestically around my lower body, and has been gesticulating and chatting with his mobile phone for a while now. Am I still having a strange dream, or should I say, this place is... More importantly, am I still alive?"So it's okay now, you don't have to come over here Akane--. It's solved. You're trying to call the doctor again, right? I don't know what will happen. Haha.

After that, Hinata fell silent for a while, then lowered her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes apologetically.“It’s not murder or bullying. It's just a little... I just screwed up.』"What does that mean?""Well, it's embarrassing to start talking about it." Even when I tell him not to play around, Hinata only covers it up and doesn't give a clear reason."Like I said earlier, I don't have much time... so could you please save this story for another time, for the sake of my face?" Stick your tongue out from the corner of your mouth and play around. Do you think I'll agree with that?“Besides that, I have to apologize to my seniors. Because I died in such a way... Senpai, after that, I was accused of various things, and I had a hard time... I... I didn't think I'd misunderstand like this... Senpai, I had a lot of pain without my knowledge. sorry" Just when I thought she was joking around, Hinata politely bowed her head while letting her black hair flow forward."Why are you apologizin

It seemed to be frightened by the real thing that appeared with a squeaky, wordless cry.『That girl is a fake me created by a senior.』"Oh...

Hinata... that's right... you.... I... I...!" Words can be understood--. With joy and a sense of guilt that transcends it, I grabbed the little Hinata by the shoulders."Whatever you say, it's too late..." I spit it out as if telling myself. Words get stuck in my throat, I'm at a loss as to what to say. I hesitated, but I felt like I had to say it, I had to face it, I h

People often say that when they die, they get a glimpse of the sum of their lives, such as a revolving lantern, but that kind of thing didn't regenerate in me. Head to toe, mouth, nose, ears. Up to the holes in the whole body. Everything was filled with despair. Consciousness falls into the bottomless abyss. I felt my life run out. Right after that.
