"Ya... Ya...Arisa..."
Eli Ayase walked to the body of 'Alisa Ayase' with dull eyes, knelt down on the ground, and looked at the body of 'Alisa Ayase' with empty eyes.
"Hua...Eli dear... you... listen to my explanation... she... she..." I don't know why, Nozomi Tojo suddenly couldn't make a sound. No matter how she moved her mouth, she couldn't make a sound.
Eli Ayase suddenly reached for the hatchet inserted into 'Alisa Ayase''s belly with trembling hands and pulled it out.
--Pfft
At the same time, Nozomi Tojo looked at Eli Ayase holding a hatchet with wide eyes. She also guessed what Eli Ayase was going to do. At the same time, she also guessed something in her heart.
It turns out that when 'Arisa' said leaving, she meant that she could only leave if she died. It seemed like she was going to die here.
'But... it wouldn't be a loss if I could die in the hands of Eli kissing you.'
"I want to... take revenge for Arisa!"
Eli Ayase raised the hatchet and swung it towards Nozomi Tojo who gave up any movement.
[That's it, that's it! Hate it, watch your family being killed by your best friend, the feeling of disbelief, but the fact is right in front of you, that kind of feeling, it's... it's really great!]
Nightmare--Maki Nishikino, Yazawa Nico, Hanayo Koizumi, Rin Hoshizora (Part 1)
The howling cold wind blew through the dark forest, and the direct friction of the leaves made a "rustling" sound. A blood-red full moon hung high in the dark night. Several bats flew over the forest from time to time, making this area particularly weird. There were bursts of rapid footsteps in the forest.
Click, click, click...
"Haah... haah... haah..."
The four weak figures seemed to be running in a panic in the forest. At the same time, they looked back from time to time, as if they were avoiding something. Their rapid breathing indicated that they had run a short distance.
--plop
"Wow!" Among them, Hanayo Koizumi, who was running last, suddenly fell to the ground. At the same time, her smooth skin rubbed against the ground for a few centimeters before she stopped.
"Hanayo dear!" Rin Hoshizora, who was running in front of Hanayo Koizumi, saw Hanayo Koizumi suddenly falling down, exclaimed, and quickly ran back to Hanayo Koizumi's side to help her up.
At the same time, Maki Nishikino and Yazawa Nico at the front also heard the movement behind them and stopped.
"Are you okay?"
"How's it going?"
Quickly running to Hanayo Koizumi, Maki Nishikino and Yazawa asked with concerned voices.
"So... it hurts..." Hanayo Koizumi, who was lifted up from the ground by Rin Hoshizora, cried out in pain. There were small scratches on her elbows and knees. Although it wouldn't be anything serious, Hanayo Koizumi might not be able to run away.
"What should I do? I can't leave here at all, and the monster is coming soon." Yazawa Nico said with lingering fear.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I hadn't secretly seen that monster, we wouldn't have... wuwuwuwu..." As she said that, Rin Hoshizora burst into tears. If she hadn't suddenly seen her unsightly appearance, maybe they wouldn't have been hunted down.
Swish, swish, swish...
At this moment, a dark wind suddenly hit, rustling the surrounding leaves. At the same time, there was a sudden chill behind the four girls present, and an uneasy premonition arose in their hearts.
Da, da, da, da...
Immediately, a burst of neither fast nor slow footsteps came from the distance, and at the same time, the footsteps began to gradually approach the direction of Maki Nishikino and the four girls.
As the footsteps approached, Maki Nishikino and their hearts suddenly stopped.
Then, the trees around Maki Nishikino suddenly made a backward movement like a human being, and by chance, a 'passage' was opened. At the same time, a seemingly thin figure, with a right arm with a strong and ferocious animal claw that did not match his body, walked slowly through the 'passage'.
[I found you, I told you, no one who knows my secret is alive!]
The man looked at the four girls who were trembling in front of him with a ferocious expression. As a ray of moonlight shone, the man's entire face was suddenly exposed to the light.
With scarlet eyes and a shocking burn covering most of his face, the pale bones could be faintly seen under the burnt flesh.
Then, the man spoke.
[Moreover, even if you escape from here, my body will not let you escape from this Nightmare world!]
As he said that, the man raised his ferocious claws and began to slowly approach Maki Nishikino and the others.
-Time dividing line---
a few hours ago.
"Well..." In the forest, an icy cold wind hit him. Maki Nishikino felt a biting cold, so he slowly opened his eyes, and then he saw a gloomy forest.
"This... here is..."
Looking at the unfamiliar environment around him, Maki Nishikino suddenly became uneasy.
Then a faint fire suddenly appeared in the distance. At the same time, the source of the fire seemed to have noticed Maki Nishikino here, and began to approach Maki Nishikino.
Seeing the source of the fire approaching him, Maki Nishikino became slightly vigilant, and at the same time, his eyes began to look around, trying to find a way out.
Gradually, as the fire approached, a blurry figure appeared from the tree in the distance Maki Nishikino.
"It's you?!"*2
When the visitor's face was exposed to the moonlight, both Maki Nishikino and the other party pointed at each other with shock in their eyes.
"Meow! That's great! It turns out that Maki-chan is here like us, Hanayo." Rin Hoshizora jumped out from behind Yazawa Nico who was holding a torch and hugged Maki Nishikino, who was still in a dazed state.
"Yeah, it seems that Maki-chan is here like us." Hanayo Koizumi, who was scared of the surrounding environment, hid a little weakly behind a big tree.
"Why do you..." Maki Nishikino said with some confusion.
"Ah, we also suddenly appeared in this ghost place like you, but we were lucky. We met a kind-hearted person here and was saved by him. Let's go quickly." Yazawa Nico interrupted Maki Nishikino's question and said impatiently. She simply didn't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment. She felt too uncomfortable.
"Good Samaritans? What about the others? Where are everyone?" Under the guidance of Yazawa Nico, Maki Nishikino wondered where Yazawa Nico was sitting, Honoka Kosaka and others.
"I don't know. We searched all over here, but in the end we only found you." Yazawa Nico explained.
"Maki-chan, you don't know, if it weren't for Mr. Yan, Hanayo and Nico would have gotten lost in this forest." Hoshizora Rin said as she walked beside Nishikino Maki.
"Mr. Yan?" Maki Nishikino was a little curious about the word 'Mr. Yan' in Rin Hoshizora's mouth.
"Okay, we're here."
Just when Maki Nishikino was about to continue asking, Yazawa Nico suddenly stopped, and at the same time, the torch in her hand slowly went out.
Then Maki Nishikino looked up, and a wooden house with a somewhat medieval style appeared in front of Maki Nishikino.
[The script is going pretty well, but it's a bit boring just like this. Why don't you... let me add some spice.]
Nightmare--Maki Nishikino, Yazawa Nico, Hanayo Koizumi, Rin Hoshizora (Part 2)
Squeak--
"Oh, have you found your companions?"
Yazawa Nico Pushed open the door of the wooden house, and a very thin man walked down the stairs on the second floor.
"Well, she is our companion. Thank you Mr. Yan for your help earlier." Yazawa Nico pointed at Maki Nishikino who was still looking around and thanked the thin man.
But the man named Mr. Yan by Yazawa Nico walked up to the four girls and glanced at Maki Nishikino with his slightly cloudy eyes. At the same time, an indescribable light flashed in his eyes.
"Hello, little girl." Mr. Yan walked up to Maki Nishikino, then stretched out his right hand that looked like a dead branch in front of Maki Nishikino and said, "You can just call me Mr. Yan like your companions."
"Yeah, I got it Mr. Yan."
Maki Nishikino also stretched out his hand to hold Mr. Yan's hand. What he felt was an unusually cold temperature that ordinary people should have. This made Maki Nishikino's heart suddenly start to feel uneasy again. However, in order not to arouse the other party's resentment, Maki Nishikino suppressed her inner uneasiness, and then with a reluctant smile on her face, she asked the question she wanted to know most.
"I want to ask Mr. Yan, do you know how to get out of here?"
Upon hearing Maki Nishikino's question, Mr. Yan seemed to have already known that Maki Nishikino would ask this question, so he answered without any hesitation.
"I know this. After all, I have lived here for some time, so I still know the route out of here. However, this time period happens to be the most turbulent time in the forest, and there are still a lot of vacancies here, so I think you might as well rest here first, and I will take you out of here at dawn. How about that?"
With that said, Mr. Yan stepped forward on his somewhat short legs and slowly walked to the kitchen aside, leaving only the four girls thinking in place.
"What should we do next?" Maki Nishikino looked back at his three companions and asked.
"How about... let's just listen to Mr. Yan and stay here for one night..." Hanayo Koizumi, the timidest one, was the first to express her opinion. After all, the forest at night does seem a bit eerie and scary. She is too timid to continue wandering in the forest at night.
"I agree with Hanayo's opinion." Then Rin Hoshizora also agreed.
"Nico Where are you?" Maki Nishikino turned his attention to Yazawa Nico and asked, while Hanayo Koizumi and Rin Hoshizora also turned their attention to Their eyes were focused on Yazawa Nico. The only one here now is Yazawa Nico, a third-year senior, so the three first-year students were waiting for Yazawa Nico's reply.
"Well..."
Feeling that all eyes were focused on her, Yazawa Nico closed her eyes slightly and thought for a while. In fact, she was a little wary of this Mr. Yan. After all, there were ten of them in the haunted house before, but now there are only her and Maki Nishikino. Four people,, Hanayo Koizumi and Rin Hoshizora, appeared in this strange forest, and then suddenly met this person Mr. Yan who had been living here. Everything changed so fast that they almost thought it was a dream.
After struggling in her mind for a few minutes, Yazawa Nico finally opened her eyes and looked up at the three people whose eyes had been focused on her. Finally, she took a deep breath, and then exhaled a thick breath.
At the same time, by coincidence, Mr. Yan placed a plate containing four cups of steaming hot tea and a plate full of biscuits on the table in front of the four girls, and then spoke.
"How's it going? Have you made up your mind? Do you want to stay until you leave tomorrow or now?"
After Mr. Yan finished speaking, the three girls in the first grade focused their attention on Yazawa Nico again.
Yazawa Nico seemed to have made up his mind and said.
"Well, we have thought about it, and we will ask Mr. Yan to take us out of here tomorrow."
"Don't worry, I will take you away tomorrow." Mr. Yan turned his back to the four girls, curved the corners of his mouth, and then said to the four girls behind him, "I have nothing to entertain you here. These are tea and snacks, so you can just make do with it. As for the room, I have cleaned it every day, so you can just stay there. I will go to rest first, you can do whatever you want." With that, Mr. Yan slowly walked up the stairs step by step.
When Mr. Yan's figure left, the four girls all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great, we can finally go home tomorrow!" Rin Hoshizora said excitedly.
But Maki Nishikino's words poured a bucket of cold water on her.
"Don't be too happy, don't you think it's strange? We were obviously in that weird haunted house with everyone before, but why are we the only ones here and everyone is gone? Don't you think it's strange?"
"This..." Rin Hoshizora also reacted. She was too excited when she learned that she could leave here, but she forgot the most important thing.
"Then what should we do now..." Hanayo Koizumi said worriedly.
"Okay, don't think so much. Now we can only take one step at a time." Yazawa Nico also couldn't find any idea about what Maki Nishikino said.
Then the four girls began to pick up the tea and snacks Mr. Yan put on the table to fill their now hungry stomachs.
"Woo..."
When all the snacks on the table were wiped out, Hanayo Koizumi suddenly became a little squirmy, his smooth thighs kept rubbing against each other, his body also trembled a little, and he looked a little weird.
"Hanayo dear? What's wrong with you? You look so strange."
Rin Hoshizora, who was sitting next to Hanayo Koizumi, noticed something strange about Hanayo Koizumi, so he asked, which also attracted the attention of Maki Nishikino and Yazawa Nico.
"Oh... I... that..." Hanayo Koizumi said a little coyly, "I... maybe... some... somewhat anxious..."
Speaking of this, the other three people also became enlightened. At the same time, they also remembered an important thing, that is - where is the toilet?
They appeared here inexplicably, and were taken in by Mr. Yan inexplicably. Moreover, they didn't know much about this house and Mr. Yan was asleep now. It was embarrassing to disturb the four girls. After all, Mr. Yan was kind enough to take them in, and they were embarrassed to disturb others' rest. They were still wary of that Mr. Yan.
"Well, this is the first floor, and it doesn't seem like there is a toilet. I think the toilet should be upstairs." Maki Nishikino observed the environment of their floor and analyzed it.
"In that case, Hanayo kiss me and go with you." With that said, Rin Hoshizora took Hanayo Koizumi's hand and walked upstairs.
"Wait... wait... Rin-chan... slow... slow down..."
--Time dividing line--
--Wow!
With the sound of water running, Hanayo Koizumi walked out of the toilet with a slightly relieved expression on his face.
At the same time, Rin Hoshizora, who had been bored and dazed at the door, saw Hanayo Koizumi walking out of the toilet, so before Hanayo Koizumi could react, he quietly walked behind Hanayo Koizumi.
"Meow meow!"
"Whoa!"
Hanayo Koizumi was frightened by Rin Hoshizora who suddenly appeared behind him and looked at Rin Hoshizora with a look of resentment.
"Rin-chan... don't always scare me like this..."
"Ah haha... I'm sorry... but I see Mr. Hanayo always looking worried and scared, so I plan to scare Mr. Hanayo and make Mr. Hanayo relax, meow." It seemed that because of Hanayo Koizumi's resentful eyes, Rin Hoshizora touched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Really... Rin-chan, can't you change your approach?" After hearing Rin Hoshizora's explanation, Hanayo Koizumi's resentment faded a little, and then he complained a few more times before giving up.
"Ah haha... huh?" Rin Hoshizora smiled awkwardly, and then she seemed to have discovered something, pointing forward and said, "Hanayo, look at it, there seems to be a light on in that room."
"Well, that's right." Looking in the direction Rin Hoshizora pointed, Hanayo Koizumi also noticed that the lights in the room in front of them were still on, and the door seemed to have a small gap left because the people inside were in a hurry.
The most important thing is that the owner of this house is Mr. Yan, and Mr. Yan has never said that there is anyone else in this house besides him. The only outsiders are the four of them, so who are the people in this room?
"Hanayo dear Hanayo dear, let's go and have a look." At this time Rin Hoshizora suddenly suggested.
