"hurry along! Hurry on!" shout them.
Immediately, Nori-san immediately turned back the direction of the car and stuck the gas pedal quickly. He circled the residential area and went through another way to get out of the place.
"Yabai! this is getting dangerous ...," inner Nori-san.
"Why is this area so quiet? Isn't there a family who lives in this housing estate besides you, Miyako?" ask Nori-san.
"Of course not. It's quiet here because this housing has only been inaugurated for a few months, so .. not many people have bought or rented a house in this area," Aunt Miyako replied.
Nori-san occasionally turned her head towards Yuki who was behind. "Yuki-chan, which hospital is your grandmother in?" tanyakanya.
"So .. You know about that too? Why you- "
"Jawab my question! Where!" nori-san.
"He was treated at Hannan hospital."
"Where does he know all this ?" inner Yuki.
"Why is it like this, Nori-san? How could Naku Josei be in this place?" ask Yuki.
"It's all because of you, Yuki. You brought him here. Now, not only you or Aoi can see it, but Miyako and I can see it too, because we've gotten too far involved with the creature" Nori-san explained.
"Whatchu mean? Is that possible? Isn't he just after the kids?" ask Yuki again.
"You don't understand, Yuki. That's why I will explain everything about the devil to you, but this is not the right place to say everything. We have to dodge or at least get into an area where the demon cannot follow us" Nori-san said, slamming the steering wheel.
Along the way, they all prayed for salvation. Nori-san is seen contacting someone on her phone, and she asks the person to pick them up at the night market, while Jack still looks unconscious in Yuki's lap.
.
.
At 10:15 PM. They also arrived at the night market.
"Uwuhh ... Where am I?" muttered Jack who looked unconscious.
"Jack, are you okay?" Yuki helped her sit down.
"What's going on? Why am I in this car? Who's the guy?" ask Jack.
"Alright, Jack. I'll explain later." replied Yuki.
"Whatchu mean? Uhh ... Where's the guy who threw me off the second floor?" ask Jack again.
"Jack!" yuki Bent.
"We have arrived. In this crowded place, that demon would not dare to show itself," said Nori-san who then parked her car and told them all to get out.
"Come, hurry!" said Nori-san who was walking and followed by the four of them.
They walked towards a parked car not far from where they were standing.
Arriving there, Nori-san knocks on the glass door of the car and someone opens it from the inside.
"Is this all of them?" ask the bald-headed man.
"Yes, please take them there ...," replied Nori-san who then said again,
"You get in this car, he'll take you to a safer place."
"Wouldn't it be safer if we called the police and asked for help?" anjur Yuki's.
"Huh? You think they're gonna believe all your stories about all this stuff? This is not a criminal case committed by humans. But by something that can't be seen by everyone!" nori-san sternly while walking away.
"Why don't you come with us, Nori-san?" asked Yuki who made her steps stop.
"I just remembered that there's something I need to do right now. You guys go with Yoshino-san, I'll catch up later" Nori-san replied.
"Where are you going?" ask her again who was curious.
Nori-san just looked at her face, then walked away without answering anything.
"Damachi-san!" exclaim Yuki.
"Come in everything! Why are you all just standing outside! Yuki-chan, you too. We need to get out of here right away," the old man named Yoshino scolded.
"Where are you going to take us?" asked Aunt Miyako as she walked into the car with the others.
"To the Temple of Sora. I've heard everything from Nori-san. Don't worry, you'll be fine there" Yoshino-san replied.
"Do you know where Nori-san went?" ask Yuki.
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you right now" she replied briefly.
"Why?"
"Because you would definitely insist on coming with him if I told you where he was going!" yoshino-san who started to stick the gas pedal.
Yuki just fell silent and wondered in his heart, "Where did he go? Why isn't he coming with us ?"
*****
"We have arrived" Yoshino-san said.
They got out of the car and entered the temple. Inside, there were some monks sitting in prayer.
Yoshino-san invited them all to sit down.
"Please sit ..."
His words made Yuki remember something, and then flash something in his mind that he felt like Deja vu.
"Wait a minute, these faces? Have I met them before ?" inner Yuki.
"Do you still remember us?" asked a monk who walked up to them.
"I'm not sure if she remembers you, but I still remember your faces clearly" Aunt Miyako replied.
"How long has it been since we last met? Limabelas years? Sixteen years? I don't know, I forgot. You're Yuki-chan, right?"
"Who is he? How did he know my name?" Yuki muttered in his heart.
"Ah .. I'm sorry, you must not know me. My name is Tomo shibisu. I was one of the monks who was also at the Raion temple during the incident that night. Don't you remember my face?"
Yuki just silently looked at her face.
"Ah .. Of course you don't remember it, because you were a kid back then. Then, get to the point. What did you mean by coming here?" ask the man named Tomo.
"What do you mean by that question?" Yuki asked back.
"Do you not understand the question? Why did you come here?"
"Young-san! Why are you asking like that? Didn't you also know from Nori-san about all this!" sela Yoshino-san's.
The man named Tomo ignored Yoshino-san's words, and said again to Yuki.
"Why did you come here again? I mean, why did you have to go back to Japan? Don't you realize that your arrival has brought disaster to many? And also why you- "
"Gu-san!" yoshino-san snapped which made her words stop.
"Huuff .. I'm sorry, it's my fault. Excuse me first" said the monk named Tomo as he walked out of the temple.
"What does that mean? Why did he say that ?"
"Pardon us for the outrageous attitude of Tomo-san" said one of the old monks there.
"You're all monks at Raion Temple, right? why are you guys in Hannan?" ask aunt Miyako.
"yes, actually the temple is no longer used, and we all moved here. It's been fifteen years since we moved from there" Yoshino-san replied.
"Fifteen years? Wh why? Is the area closed by the government?"
"No, but we ourselves want to move" he explained.
"Oh, yeah. Oh yeah, then where's Kotaro sensei?" ask aunt Miyako again.
Yoshino-san looked them all in the face, then said, "that's why we moved here. We closed the temple after the departure of Kotaro sensei."
"Go? Whatchu mean?"
"Kotaro sensei is dead, he died a few days after the incident that night. And his death was completely unnatural" Yoshino-san explained.
"Kotaro sensei's? The old man died ?" Yuki muttered in a heart that started to remember him.
"Died unnaturally? Whatchu mean?" Yuki started asking.
"Yes, he died by suicide."
"A suicide? How come?" aunt Miyako looked surprised.
"That's why I said his death was unnatural. That day, he was not seen all day, which is why we decided to check him in his room.
But, that night we found him lifeless hanging from a rope wrapped around his neck" said Yoshino-san, who then continued his words again,
"Kotaro sensei is not that type of person. But I know what caused his death. This may just be a hypothesis, but I'm pretty sure that he's the one who caused Kotaro sensei's death."
"He who?" ask Yuki.
Yoshino-san looked at Yuki face deeply, then said,
"I'm Josei."
