Kotoko interrupted him. Since Ampe Chosai disappeared, in order to perfect her plan, Higa Kotoko dispatched another trusted person.

“That covenant was made between the thing inside him and that thing. I am just a witness, a less important witness.”

“Inside him?”

Kinosuke was stunned for a moment. Although he knew that this guy was not normal, he did not expect him to be so outrageous.

“Well… before, I thought I might be able to control everything, but what happened in between made me understand some things.”

“Some things are out of my control, and I paid a price for that.”

The price that Kotoko was talking about was naturally her own limbs. Her eyes were no longer bright, but rather dim, as if she might leave this world at any time.

“But I’m still alive because I still have one thing I haven’t finished.”

——When necessary, she will take someone away personally.

Yoshizaki River is not a stabilizer, although he seems stable, but the longer those three are suppressed, the more terrifying they become.

This strategy was undoubtedly a failure, especially after what happened with Sadako, Kotoko kept thinking;

Higa Kotoko stared at the ceiling, thinking back to her life as an exorcist.

Born in a dilapidated shrine when he was young, he turned to this path because he was born with psychic powers. He signed a contract and deprived himself of his ability as a psychic – inspiration.

Inspiration is the ability to glimpse ghosts and gods, while spiritual power is the power that drives ghosts and gods.

He sacrificed his inspiration in exchange for powerful spiritual power, signed a contract, and was able to exorcise demons and gods. From then on, he became famous in the industry as a top-level exorcist, and the originally dilapidated shrine developed into the most popular shrine in Japan.

Recalling the past, the scenes are like falling snowflakes, falling and flashing in front of the window one by one.

“It’s snowing again.”

At this moment, a figure of a woman hanging upside down suddenly appeared on the snowy window glass. The woman had hands and feet, and her appearance was exactly that of Higa Kotoko.

However, the eyes of “Higa Kotoko” reflected in the window glass were sewn up with black needle and thread, and her hands were bound by a huge iron chain each, which extended backwards to an unknown place.

When she saw this figure, Kotoko was not panicked. Perhaps after experiencing so much, she would not panic even if faced with big things.

“Give me a little more time, the last little time…”

Before he finished speaking, the entire window suddenly exploded, and among the countless broken glass fragments, a huge stone door that could almost be called “vast” was faintly reflected;

The invisible chains naturally descended in an instant.

However, after just a moment of being close to Kotoko, he seemed to be frozen in place.

“I don’t want to die, you can’t take me away.”

Her tone was still flat, full of deathly flatness.

PS: I will push the three women as quickly as possible and complete it normally with one million words (it is expected that there will be about 300,000 words left). I was stuck in the knowledge and understanding barrier before, and I couldn’t skip the plot, so I decided to bypass the brain-burning parts.

Chapter 283 The Comic Book I Picked Up

As an extremely powerful exorcist who can even compete with Sadako, Kotoko’s confidence is not in her tone. In fact, her tone of voice is very weak, as if she is terminally ill. Of course, this is indeed the case with her.

But even with this tone that even a child couldn’t stop, the scene that should have been bloody became surprisingly quiet.

The terrifying existence that seemed to be in another space had actually never stopped its attacks.

The whispers were as fine as the flapping of locusts’ wings and the high-flying mosquitoes, and carried an indescribable curse that caused all the glass in the room to begin to tremble violently;

He was angry, as if he was angry at the ant for not keeping its promise, but he was even more angry that he seemed to have no way to deal with this ant for the time being!

Finally, through the cracks in the broken glass on the ground, a dark and sticky liquid seeped into this real world.

The whole room became dim and bright, and even the sun outside was blocked. Inside the room, there was only the flickering electric light, which kept on turning on and off. In this fight, it seemed that the flickering of the light had become the key to the struggle.

“Ugh.”

At this moment, the woman lying on the hospital bed sighed faintly;

In the sigh, a strange and eerie note was uttered——

“**”

“In the past, I have committed countless evil deeds due to greed, anger and ignorance. If these evil deeds had a physical form… there would be many disasters, unrest in my home, and separation of my family. There would be many unexpected events that would offend me, and I would be frightened in my dreams. These are the unpleasant things that I have done. I have committed many evil deeds with my mouth. I have never repented and my sins have not diminished. I should be thrown into the purgatory of the mirror of sin…”

The next moment, the whole room shook violently;

In the dark, some kind of power of the same origin descended. At a certain moment, the ancient existence hidden in the mirror, or descended through a layer of the mirror world, sensed the breath of the same kind;

The ancient existence acted according to the established contract.

Two red chains, boiling with scorching cold air, intertwined from bottom to sky, from west to east, forming a purgatory, and attacked Kotoko.

The black chain fog from before became even thicker, and the huge door in the mirror showed a shadow, but it only shook slightly;

next moment–

But when the two ancient beings collided with each other, they were restricted by the rules of the world. At some point, the lights in the room stopped flickering, the sky outside had dimmed slightly, and a crescent moon could be seen hanging in the sky, emitting a faint light. Outside the hospital was a forest, and the forest, which was usually filled with the cries of birds and beasts, became exceptionally quiet at this moment.

Kotoko didn’t just contract a door. This was a very long and deep secret that she had kept hidden, and even her retainers were unaware of it.

Because the other door of the contract, no matter its name or the content of the contract, is extremely outrageous, and it even leaves no room for itself!

Fight evil with evil and curse with curse.

Thus, she won this temporary victory and pulled her half-dead body out of purgatory with her own hands.

“No one can take me down as long as I don’t want to.”

Far away, in the woods.

The cursed evil ghosts commonly known as “ghost messengers from the underworld” that were originally created by dying people also collapsed invisibly when faced with the power of hell.

But the scent of its vicious curse still silenced the birds and beasts in the forest.

Even the elderly man who was “destined” to die in the hospital was given a day to survive.

……

It was another night when Kayako walked home alone, carrying her schoolbag, and felt lonely again.

Student Tomie skipped class and never came back;

In the evening, I was supposed to leave with the teacher, but the teacher said he had something to do and left first.

After I “questioned” the teacher, the teacher told me about Kotoko’s sister, saying that because of the evil spirit, her life or death is unknown, so the teacher went to Kotoko’s sister’s hospital again, but did not take me with him.

Because he said he was afraid of scaring himself—

But I! I am so brave!

I won’t be scared!

At this moment, a black shadow flashed by under the streetlight ahead, and Kayako was so frightened that she screamed and almost jumped up;

But the next moment, the familiar sound of a cat’s cry was heard;

Kayako’s wildly beating heart suddenly relaxed, and she held Hei in her arms;

Xiao Hei looked a little disheveled, but still healthy. Kayako checked him over and over again, and after making sure he was fine, she complained, “Where have you been these days? Why didn’t you go home?”

The only response she got was Xiao Hei’s lazy meow. She hugged Xiao Hei and felt less lonely.

She was just about to leave with Xiao Hei in her arms, when she suddenly discovered that there was a notebook under the street light, where Xiao Hei had been before.

It still seemed brand new, and she suddenly and inexplicably wanted to pick it up and take a look;

Thinking of this, she did not hesitate;

The girl was naturally curious. After picking up the notebook, she discovered that there was a piece of paper tucked inside it.

Open the book, the next moment——

Kayako’s pupils dilated instantly, and her face turned red in an instant;

This, this, this – this is actually, that kind of comic?

Moreover, it seems that he drew it by hand? This notebook shows a rough draft with lines drawn on it!

Judging from the level of refinement, it seems that the painter has a very good understanding of the human body, and the movements are extremely smooth. The painter must have put a lot of hard work into this.

I just don’t know why this place appeared?

Did you lose it accidentally?

She took out the note that was mixed with other things. It seemed to know what she was thinking, but there was an address written on it.

Is this the position of this cartoonist?

However, it was really careless of the cartoonist to leave such private things out in the open.

Kayako seems to be able to represent myself. If I draw something like this, and leave it outside, and someone picks it up…

Just thinking about it makes me tap my toes!

and so–

Do you want to return it?

She glanced at the time. It was already very late, so waiting here was definitely impossible. But if she left it here, she didn’t know if someone else would take it away.

After thinking for a long time, she decided to put the comic away first, and then come back tomorrow to see if anyone came to look for it.

However, if a comic like this is lost, I guess you won’t be able to find it, right?

That would be such a pity.

Because Kayako could feel that a lot of effort had been put into this book, and there were even detailed illustrations in it – of course, she didn’t mean to look at it, she just glanced at it accidentally.

At this moment, she thought of the address on the note again.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally decided to take it back first.

By the way, you can also study the painting skills.
