Kamiyagawa walked to the yard outside the house and started making calls.
Dudu——
"Hey, Kamiya? Why did you call me all of a sudden? What kind of trouble did you get into?"
"Uncle Yuuki, what you said is so irrational. When have I ever gotten into trouble?"
"Then tell me, what are you doing?"
"Well..." Because this caller wanted to borrow money, and it was for tens of millions of yen, which was not a small amount, even Kamiyagawa couldn't help but feel guilty, "Just, can you lend me some money? "
"Borrow money? Oh, I remember, you said you were considering moving to a new home recently and have you found a suitable house?"
When Uncle Yuki heard the request to borrow money, he didn't have much reaction and his tone was very calm.
On the phone, Kamiya explained the construction situation of a house he was looking at.
Yuki Makensuke: "A house in Arakawa Higashikawa? Although it's a little remote, 50 square meters is very large, and it's really a bargain for only 20.8 million yen. A major murder happened in the past, and there are still some strange stories in the house. Existence... I remember that some private spiritualists will also look for this type of haunted house to trade, you are really lucky to find one."
"right."
It sounds like other capable ghost exterminators may also have the idea of "buying a cheap haunted house to live in".
You are really lucky to be able to find this one-family house in Arakawa Higashikawa in Kamiyagawa.
It's considered a miss.
"How much do you need to borrow?"
"It's 11 million yen. Write an IOU and calculate the interest. I will pay it back as soon as possible."
"Oh." Uncle Yuki's voice paused deliberately for a while, "Boy, if I give you the money and don't want you to pay it back..."
Ten million yen, of course the uncle can borrow this amount of money.
After all, he is a high-ranking official of the official ghost-killing organization, and he is a man who drives a private speedboat to fish in Tokyo Bay during his vacation.
There are actually quite a few deposits.
Kamiya: "What for? You want me to sell myself?"
Yuuki: "You know what I'm going to say, how about officially joining the Special Investigation Countermeasures Room?"
"Well……"
It started again, and we started talking about work again.
In fact, Kamiyagawa is not very reluctant to formally join the special investigation and countermeasures room.
With a formal establishment, you can also get a stable salary every month.
As far as Kamiya knows, taking Onizuka the little miko as an example, her basic salary is 400,000 yen a month.
In addition to the spirit-removing tasks given by the organization, there will be corresponding rewards and bonuses upon completion.
Moreover, bonuses are the bulk of the income. According to Onizuka personally, her monthly spirit-killing subsidy remuneration is in the millions of yen.
um, yes.
That girl tells Kamiya everything...
"But, I don't have time to be a spiritual exterminator." Kamitani sighed inwardly, holding the phone in his hand.
】
Organized exorcists definitely don’t have that much freedom in their personal time.
After all, he is an iron rice bowl. When an organizational task comes up, he immediately has to work overtime to complete it.
Let’s take the Onizuka little miko as an example.
The Jujun Shrine is basically involved in all D-level and above weird incidents around Kanagawa.
At any time and in any place, once the little witch receives a task, she must temporarily put down what she is doing and devote herself to her work.
Coupled with the fact that he has to take care of his schoolwork and Kamiko training, Onizuka is actually quite hard.
"I have to devote a lot of time to the other world every day. The official work of exterminator, which may receive tasks at any time 24 hours a day, is not that I don't want to do it, but that I can't do it."
"The life I am living now is more suitable for me. I am a non-staff member and maintain a close relationship with the official organization, but I have freedom of movement and can also collect money and inventory props and materials from the special investigation and countermeasures room from time to time."
Kamiyagawa's thoughts changed in his mind, and he spoke into the phone with a lack of confidence:
"Can we not talk about work and just talk about relationships..."
"Haha, kid, you want to have a relationship, right? That's okay." Uncle Yuki laughed out loud on the other end of the phone, "Wait a minute, I have something to do, I'll call you later."
All--
The phone hangs up.
"Oh, borrowing money is really not that easy." Kamiya smiled bitterly.
He stayed outside the house for about ten minutes.
Suddenly a text message came in on the phone——
"Your debit card account number ending in 9527 has a transfer income of 15,000,000 yen. Please check it carefully. [Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation]"
A transfer of 15 million yen!
Kamiya originally thought that the money was sent by Uncle Yuki, but looking at the remitter, it seemed that this was not the case.
At this time, the mobile phone rang, and there was a call.
But it wasn't Uncle Yuki's call, but the call from Onizuka Miko.
"Hello?"
"God Valley."
"Uh-huh."
"Have you received the money?"
"received……"
All right.
This money, which was transferred very quickly, was indeed called by the little witch.
Onizuka: "Kamiya, are you going to buy a house?"
Kamiya: "Yes, that's the plan."
"Why didn't you tell me? If Uncle Yuki hadn't called me, I wouldn't have known about it."
"Well... I originally planned to tell you after I bought it and settled in, and invited you to come to the new home as a guest or something."
It is true that Kamiyagawa never told Onizuka that he was considering changing his house recently.
the reason is simple.
It's nothing more than boys' pride at work.
Kamitani knew very well that Onizuka was a happy little rich woman.
If she had known in advance that she was looking for a new house, there was a high chance that she would have received assistance from Onizuka if she was in the current situation of insufficient funds.
And Kamiya subconsciously didn't want to borrow money from Onizuka.
He hopes that the relationship between him and the little witch can remain equal and evenly matched.
If you owe someone else money, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as you can pay it back as promised in the future.
But only Onitsuka...
He suddenly owed her 15 million, and the relationship between the two could not be equal no matter how much he thought about it.
To put it more bluntly, this is——
Taking money from the little witch will make you feel like you are eating soft food...
However, now that the deal is done, it would look very artificial to return the 15 million from Onizuka.
Nothing necessary.
"Thank you, Onizuka. I will repay you the 15 million as soon as possible. We will write an IOU and calculate the interest."
"Okay." Perhaps to take care of Kamiyagawa's psychology, the little miko did not refuse his proposal, but at the end she added, "It's okay if you don't have to worry too much."
"Um……"
"Also, you just said that you would invite me to be your guest after you moved to a new house. Did I remember that?"
"OK."
…
The moonlight is nice tonight.
Although the courtyard built by a family is deserted, it reflects the moonlight like water.
After hanging up the call with the little miko, Kamiyakawa felt a little strange.
Sure enough, I owed Onizuka a large sum of money all of a sudden, and I felt a little unsure when talking to her just now...
Not good.
Doesn't this mean that we have to be manipulated again?
"? A real man, a real man, a real man..."
The phone rang again.
This time it was Uncle Yuki who called.
"Hey kid, how's it going? Did you get the money?"
"...Uncle, you are so talkative."
"Didn't you say you wanted to talk about feelings? No matter how you think about it, talking to the beautiful little Onizuka miko in Juqiong Shrine is better than talking to me, right?"
"That's not what I meant when I talked about relationships." Kamiyakawa argued.
"What's the matter? Borrowing money from someone is not a loan. Or is there something different about Onizuka Miko in your eyes? That's right. When you were hospitalized before, Onizuka Miko took care of you very seriously..."
"Stop, stop it, how come I haven't noticed that uncle you are such a gossip before?"
"Don't say that. Isn't it great that this is the case? There is a new layer of connection between you and Onizuka the little miko. How wonderful!"
“Does debt contact count as contact!?”
"Why doesn't it count?" Yuuki Makensuke laughed heartily on the other end of the phone, "Besides, even though you said you didn't want it, you saw Onizuka Miko wired you a large amount of money without saying a word. , I’m actually quite happy, right?”
"...That's a long time!" Kamiyakawa hung up the phone.
at the same time.
Under the name of Masaki Yuki, it is located in a high-rise apartment in Tokyo.
Uncle Yuki, who finished work early today, faced the floor-to-ceiling window of his bedroom and looked at the neon night scene high outside, and put away the phone with a smile.
"That kid from Kamiya is a bit arrogant. It's great to be young."
Just as he finished sighing, the bedroom door was gently pushed open.
The cracked woman walked in holding a simple small clay pot.
The jar contained the special medicine Kamiyagawa had given him before, and it was almost finished now.
Not to mention, the effect is awesome.
…
"Mr. Kamiya, have you decided to buy this house? Or will you pay the full price?"
Mr. Doi looked surprised.
It is not common to see generous guests like this young man tonight who immediately want to pay for the property after just looking at the room.
"Well, let's pay the deposit first. You should have a contract or something like that, right?"
"Yes, yes. Just sign, it's very convenient. I will help you contact the landlord tomorrow, and the formal transfer procedures will be arranged soon."
Doi opened his briefcase with a smile on his face.
If this deal is concluded, he can make a lot of money.
"Thank you. Also, since I paid the deposit, can you give me the key here first? I want to stay here for one night to try it out."
Kamiya carefully read the document Doi took out and signed it immediately.
"This... is okay too."
Handing over the keys in advance is somewhat irregular though.
But since the young buyer was so forthcoming, the deposit was paid, and the preliminary contract was signed.
Even if the other party wants to regret it later, the house is here and will not run away.
It's okay to let him try it out for one night.
"Mr. Kamiya, let's make a deal first, and it's written in the contract you just signed. The deposit has been paid. If you change your mind and don't want to buy it after staying tonight, a large amount of liquidated damages will be deducted from the deposit. .”
Mr. Doi said this and carefully put away the signed contract.
"I know."
"That's no problem. I hope you can enjoy your stay tonight."
Mr. Doi left the key behind.
The two exchanged casual greetings for a few more words, and then the agent drove away in his car with a blush on his face.
Kamiyakawa was the only one left in the huge house.
He stood at the entrance, raised his hand and slowly closed the door.
snap——
The moment the door closed, there were figures around Kamiyakawa.
It’s not just human figures, there are also figures of ferocious or petite animals outlined.
Kamiyakawa stood in the center of these figures, smiling:
"Good news, we have a new home. In addition, let's go and say hello to the old residents who are temporarily staying here."
…
"Abba! Abba!"
"Woof!"
Under the guidance of the little old man, Inugami stuck his head into the bathroom and pulled out a "big mouse" wearing a yukata and geta, carrying a wooden basin and bucket.
Inujiro held the big, furry, round mouse by the back of his yukata in his mouth.
Inugami did not reveal his "true body" this time.
The body size has shrunk greatly compared to the activities in the other world, from the original size of an adult rhinoceros to the size of a large dog.
But it was enough to scare the clothed rat.
"Squeak!"
It flailed its limbs in panic, but to no avail.
At the same time, Prajna also floated down from the second floor along the stairs.
In his hand, he was holding a Sunny doll with a sad face and trembling constantly.
The two "old residents' ghost stories" were brought into the large living room.
Kamiyagawa and his Shikigami Kaitan gathered here happily.
Therefore, from the perspective of the big mouse and the sunny doll, they saw this scene——
A wrinkled little old man, who seemed to be less than half a meter tall, squatted on top of the shelf in the living room, silently watching everything in the room from above.
Five "people" with empty necks were standing, one of them was holding a bloody yellow-haired head, and there were four balloon-like heads floating back and forth above the room.
A ferocious big black dog sat in the corner of the room, its scarlet eyes violent and greedy.
Beside the big dog were the two most harmless-looking beings in the room. There is a little beast that is curled up and taking a nap, looking like a pig and an elephant; and a cute and well-behaved little girl with a curious look in her eyes, wearing a red and white kimono.
Then there is the master position in the living room.
The young human who had just arrived in this one-family building tonight had a slightly lazy posture and was sitting there holding an unsheathed long sword.
Two girls with extremely outstanding looks, one wearing a red and black dress and the other wearing a purple and white undershirt, were on the left and right beside the young human.
The huge and gloomy evil aura was rampant, so thick that it seemed to have substance. The evil aura spread to all parts of the house, as if a corner of hell had been opened here.
horrible.
It's really scary!
Where have Big Mouse and Sunny Doll ever seen such a hell-like battle?
They were obviously frightened and trembling uncontrollably.
"Don't be afraid, here are my family and friends, they are all very kind." Kamiya's eyes looked back and forth between the two terrified strangers:
"Let's get to know each other? My name is Kamiyakawa. If nothing else happens, I will be the new owner of this house. What about you, can you communicate?"
After he finished speaking, the big furry mouse began to squeak.
It took off the scarf around its neck and tried to wipe the floor.
Maybe that's how it introduces itself.
Although some of the meaning is unclear.
Immediately afterwards, the sunny doll that had been crying with a sad face also moved, and from behind the doll, a slender figure the size of a thumb condensed.
She slowly appeared as a girl with two buns on her head, wearing a goose-yellow dress and a delicate appearance.
After this miniature girl appeared, the original Sunny Baby doll seemed to be carried on her back.
The pocket-sized girl's eyes were filled with tears, and her soft-spoken words were laced with tears:
"It's Kuuchi. I'm Hiyoribo, or you can call me Saharu-niang. Please be kind and don't kill us, Kamiya-sama!"
