Tokyo Ghost Diary

Shimizu Yu felt that he once again refreshed his understanding of Hoshino Gen, a magical and mysterious classmate.

When the two of them had little contact at the beginning, Shimizu Yu noticed that Hoshino Gen always kept to himself in school and never paid attention to other people's conversations. I just think that guy is a very regrettable weirdo even though he looks foul.

Later, she took the initiative to contact Hoshino Gen for the first time because she wanted to use his "Spirit Detective Notes". As a result, the guy used her backhand to block the mud, and even caused her to be late and was fined for running laps. At that time, she really felt that Gen Hoshino was actually a sullen bastard.

Later, she saw Gen Hoshino's "true face" in the gym at dusk after school, and also saw a scene that was like a fantasy coming into reality. At that time, Yu Shimizu felt that Gen Hoshino was full of secrets and mystery. It is like the bright white moon in the dark night sky, making people curious as if a hundred claws are scratching the heart.

In fact, Yu Shimizu has been a girl who loves fantasy since she was a child. When walking, she would look at the blue sky and think about how great it would be if she could fly. When she looked out the window during class, she would think about how great it would be if she could do magic.

As she grew up, she gradually understood the world and knew that these things could not exist, but those fantasies always existed in her heart and never disappeared, so she became addicted to all kinds of fantasy works, including novels and comics.

It wasn't until that day, with Gen Hoshino, that she discovered that her fantasy could really become a reality.

To be honest, no matter what happened before or after, at least at that moment, Shimizu Yu was full of yearning for this classmate named Hoshino Gen.

Want to get close to him, want to know him...

Not because he was Gen Hoshino, but because Yu Shimizu saw in him his own fantasy that had entered reality.

Everything that happened after that seemed like a coincidence and a logical progression.

Help him deal with the ghosts in the gym, obtain a talisman that can activate "superpowers", and become his assistant, but in the end he is doing a somewhat disillusioning job as a housekeeper.

Although the actual contact with him was only a few days, the image of Gen Hoshino in her heart changed again and again.

But no matter what, although Yu Shimizu thinks that Gen Hoshino is a little bit too lazy, he is indeed like a righteous man in the comics, dealing with evil spirits and protecting ordinary people in the shadows of the city where others cannot see. , although it’s inexplicably hard to admit it, Yu Shimizu still feels that Gen Hoshino is a bit handsome deep down in his heart.

But now - Yu Shimizu looked at Gen Hoshino with a complicated expression while holding a knife on someone's neck and asking for information, with such a gentle smile on his face. She felt that her understanding of this guy was still too superficial.

......

Hoshino Gen also noticed Shimizu's outstanding gaze behind him, but he ignored it. Now his mind was all on the girl named Hakuna.

"How did you find this place?"

"...the smell." Perhaps because she was afraid of being struck by that weird black knife again, Hakuna Wakana told the truth honestly.

"Police dog? Or is this some kind of special ability?"

Shina Shina tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said a bit tactlessly: "I didn't bring a dog."

"That's the special ability." Hoshino Gen's interest was a little higher. He didn't care about the slightly strange way of speaking. He happily continued to ask: "Are you alone, or is there some organization behind you?"

Perhaps because she felt that this question involved privacy, Hakuna was silent for a moment, as if she didn't want to answer, but she looked at the black blade that was still on her neck and couldn't help but replied with a grimace: "I have a father. A mother, and a brother.”

"..." Gen Hoshino turned the blade, held the handle backwards, put the tip of the blade against Hakuna Shina's thigh, and said with a soft smile: "Please reorganize your words, and then I will stab you if you act stupid again."

"!" Shimona Shina opened her eyes wide in shock and said hurriedly: "I didn't lie!"

"Ah, that's it." Hoshino Gen nodded with a smile, seemingly moved by the girl's sincerity, and even put the knife back into its sheath.

However, just when Hakuna Wakana and Yu Shimizu next to him breathed a sigh of relief, Gen Hoshino suddenly took out a piece of talisman and put his sword finger on Hakuna Wakana's forehead.

"...?" Shiina Bai Nai blinked cutely.

Then - the talisman turned into scattered thunder and lightning and enveloped Hakuna Shina's body -

Sizzle! ! !

"Woo!" Hakuna's eyes widened, and the numbness, violent spasms and pain all over her body instantly overwhelmed her thoughts.

"Ugh!!"

Accompanied by the screams, the childish name Bai Nai burst into tears.

Yu Shimizu's eyes widened and she was so shocked that she almost put her hands in her mouth. She originally thought that the "interrogation" mentioned by Gen Hoshino was an exaggeration, but she never expected that this kid was actually serious!

A strong uneasiness rippled in her heart. She lowered her head and looked at where she was standing. She suddenly felt as if she was aiding the villain, a minion cheering and cheering beside the villain!

This was something Shimizu Yu couldn't accept. She hurriedly reached out and grabbed Hoshino Gen's hand: "Hey...!"

Gen Hoshino avoided Yu Shimizu's hand, but at the same time he withdrew the sword finger that was pressed against Hakuna Wakana's forehead.

Hakuna Shina was trembling and gasping for air, her shoulders twitching from time to time.

Hoshino Gen smiled and said: "The minimum output power of the Five Thunder Talisman is at most as powerful as a stun gun. It is a warning. I will ask you again now."

"Is there an organization behind you?"

"Huh...huh..." Bai Nai gradually regained her composure. I wonder if the motor just stimulated the tear ducts. At this moment, her eyes were filled with tears and her voice was crying: "You... bad guy!"

Hoshino Gen smiled and said nothing, but silently took out another talisman paper.

The childish name Bai Nai pursed her lips in grievance, but she really didn't want to experience the feeling of being electrocuted again: "Yes."

"Very good." Hoshino Gen put away the talisman with a look of approval and encouragement: "So is your organization official or voluntary?"

"...Uncle Kudo said that we are civil servants."

"That's official." Hoshino Gen nodded, then looked up and down this girl who didn't look very smart, and slowly fell into deep thought.

Since ancient times, most of the real strangers have had an arrogance that overlooks the mortal world. They sneer at the orders of the "official government", but it must be normal to ignore them.

At least there was no official special organization in the country in the previous life, nor in the free country on the other side of the ocean, the two most powerful countries in the world.

Hoshino Gen didn't know what the world was like in this life, but when he thought about how he had been so active and active in searching for supernatural beings over the years without being discovered by the so-called official special organization, there were three possibilities.

First, this special Japanese official organization has just been established, maybe within the past two years.

Secondly, there are very few people in the official special organization, and they may all be guys who lack means and have weak ghost hunting abilities.

Third - both of the above are correct, and this is the most likely.
