I'll think about it. ……Although I said. The answer I wanted to give was almost decided. As soon as I got home, I rolled over on the futon I had left unfolded and stared at the ceiling while clutching my mobile phone. You can connect to the bar code store manager with one button. Then what shall I say? Please let me quit. I think that one word will probably make sense, and you will soon be able to hear the disappointed sigh of the store manager. It's ridiculous. What did you hear from Mr. Takenaka? I felt like it wasn't the right area for me to step into. Or rather, I thought it was an area that I could not step into. After all, you wouldn't normally believe anyone, would you? I still feel like I'm dreaming Like that giant armor that sometimes appears behind Mr. Takenaka. A man screaming on a security camera. A woma
“It may be hard to believe, but this is actually the case. In places where strong thoughts remain, a mysterious phenomenon occurs that causes deaths in rapid succession. The reason why so many people die at a suicide spot is that the memory of the first person who died there drags in the second person, and the second person drags in the third person, and so on. and continue.” That's how the negative power connects, so the dead never die. Accumulated thoughts parasitize people's minds and dull their judgment. In other words, even if you don't think so, you can be tempted to do so because of a temporary weakness. Mr. Takenaka said that the man was probably also a victim of the chain reaction. And if I hadn't been saved by Mr. Takenaka, I would have joined the ranks of the victims. …… Is that what it means? Come to think of it, Mr. Aoyama said that right after I started my part
“Hey Hakamada!!"It's exactly what Tanaka said!! Look! I'll ask you to say it quickly! No, I'll force you to drink it!!" Hmmm.... Sitting in the seat across from me, a rotten friend from high school presses me with lines that I don't know how many times I've heard them, with a bright red face. How many times have you said the same thing? Even though I said it first, I can't drink a single drop today. That's why I drink."Hey! You can't drink our sake!"“You can’t drink, oh oh oh oh oh!!” Leaning out from the table, my two friends pressed their mugs against my cheeks and forced me. It's okay, it's okay. Even a hairdresser apprentice who has been a hairdresser for two years can quickly turn into a thug if he drinks alcohol. Damn, you guys with bad drinking habits. As for why it's like this, well, it's not a big deal.
“Sometimes you only look at the aisle, and you stretch your neck every time you pass by a store clerk."Ah... well, it's like that.""Who's cute?""I'll tell you later, Nishimura, sit down." Reach for the yakitori while lying. To be honest, it always makes me laugh. Or do you get mad at me for saying something disgusting? You won't believe me either way."..." ……or. No, but. But if it's these guys. If these guys are rotten ties."Um," Half in doubt, I try to speak. At that formal attitude, the three friends leaned forward and focused on me."what happened?""Well, it's a recent story, but... me.""What is it?"“Are you finally a woman!?”"Actually... I'm..." I've become able to see ghosts. Bomb drop. I said The reason why it was swirling around my chest until now. I threw up in front of my rotten relatives. While born in the moment. silence. The ice in the mug melted and fell off."AHA" It's too quiet to bear, and it's time for a half-smile."Ha-hahahahahahahahahaha
Wash your face vigorously with cold water. Look into the bathroom mirror. The complexion isn't that bad, but the face is terrible."..." How many times has this happened? I saw something like that. Nishimura's white arm. Then there was the woman who was in the corner of the store and had no stomach. The man who grabbed the shin of the shop assistant girl and dragged her... He feels like throwing up when he thinks about it. Recently... it's a really recent story. I started seeing strange things. The trigger was a part-time job at a convenience store that I started looking for an hourly wage. Even though I was warned that it was the reason for this, as a result of ignoring it, I reluctantly lost the ability to see ``invisible beings that are not human'', whether it's a latent ability or a sixth sense. I got it. At first, I couldn't tell the difference, and I didn't notice it when I passed each other, or it was just a flicker in my vision. There are some that can be mistaken
"If possible, I don't want anything to happen..." It's a sincere wish. I was inspired by the hot and humid air of midsummer all over my body. should not. If you feel like this Mr. Takenaka taught me before, that the weaker you feel, the easier it is for those things to come to you. Rather, you should be prepared with the feeling that anything will come. ……Although I try to think about it, it is impossible to say anything, there is a limit. Feeling lonely with the electric light that is only one in dozens of meters, I turn the curve several times. A white guardrail reinforced with an iron plate flickers on the right side of the field of vision. Was there a motorcycle accident before I came to that convenience store...? I'm pretty sure the person who fell is dead. The manager said There seems to be no end to falling accidents in that place. I don't want to think about why, but a few things happen every year. That's why a brand new iron plate is applied every time. Evidence t
"Hey, Hakamada-kun.""Good work""It's almost time to change. Come to think of it, Mr. Hakamada, you arrived early today.""Oh yes, wait a minute" When I entered the store and exchanged familiar greetings and bows, I entered the back room, and Mr. Nagase rushed in with a keen eye while looking at his watch."It's been a long time since we got together among friends, but if I stay too long, I feel like I'll really get drunk.""Haha, you left early.""That's how it feels." I don't want to be the only victim of that damn curve."That's right, if Hakamada-kun is gone, the number of night shift workers will decrease, so it's a problem, hahaha." It's not even a bar code omen. Nagase-san burst out laughing as if he was sure. Ku... even Mr. Nagase. With the laughter of the two behind me, I changed into a uniform in the back room. Come to think of it, Mr. Takenaka should be here, but I haven't seen him yet. Also, I looked into the store from the back room, wondering if he was trying to
Mr. Takenaka overreacted just by mentioning the word "cat", so I decided to leave him alone without asking any further questions. Even so, the corpse of that cat will still be there by the time I get home. The store manager said something had to be done, but I wonder why I should do that normally. Even so, I feel sorry for Mr. Takenaka. I have to see that on my way home. I don't want to see it too much if possible. It's midsummer, so that thing will rot at once... When I was thinking about such a thing, Mr. Takenaka spoke to me, which was rare."As for Hakamada-san...""yes?""Are you okay, uh...""Oh" Don't worry about it, I smile a little.“Since it was my decision, I will do my best not to cause trouble for Mr. Takenaka.” Before, I couldn't see the guardian spirit "Yagura" standing behind Mr. Takenaka, the woman clinging to the window, and the child with only the upper body and arms wandering around the doorway, but now I can see them normally. . I have no intention of qui
