He had accidentally encouraged the younger generation.
Even though he was a little worried about how Hoshi would develop after joining the drama club, but … there shouldn't be any problems, right?
Seiji tried to convince himself not to mind.
But that was the drama club!
There was the strange club president, Chiaki, who had a criminal record of encouraging Hoshi to cross-dress, and there might even be some other strange club members … Just what would happen if Hoshi Amami entered that demon's cave!?
Could it be that … I actually did something terrible?
But that was something Hoshi wanted to do, and I only encouraged him a little. Even if I didn't say anything, he might have done the same thing.
'Yep, that's right — that was his choice. I was just impressed by how proactive he was and said a few words.
… Forcefully stop him?
No, no matter what, I can't do such a thing. '
Seiji turned the page and stopped thinking about it.
After watching the performance, they strolled around for a while, and their joyous day came to an end.
After saying goodbye to Hoshi, Seiji, Mayuzumi, and Mayuzumi went to the event booth near the entrance and used their stamped cards to exchange for tickets and items for tomorrow's large-scale special event.
"Now, I'll just take Mayuzumi home. You can go home or do your own things, Harano, "Saki told him.
She gave off the impression that she was ordering around a lackey, but Seiji already understood the editor's personality. He knew that she was saying, "Thank you so much for your hard work today, and there's no need to trouble you anymore — please go home and rest."
"Alright. I do want to buy some things, so I'll see you two tomorrow. "Seiji smiled." I had a lot of fun today. "
"I had a lot of fun as well … See you tomorrow, Harano-kun." Mayuzumi smiled back.
"See you tomorrow, Harano," Saki said goodbye as well.
And so, the group disbanded.
Seiji watched the manga author and editor leave before he turned around and returned to school.
He bought all the items that the blonde infirmary teacher had requested yesterday, as well as a present for Little Shi, and went to the infirmary.
In the infirmary, Seiji and Feng Wu chatted until it was time for Feng Wu to get off work.
The two of them walked back to the apartment.
This was the first time that she had gone back to his place with him. Feng Wu was secretly happy.
Even though she knew that compared to herself, he cared more about Mika Uehara, she was still very happy.
Because although it was small, it was indeed progress.
"After dinner, I'll go meet up with Uehara and try to talk to her. I hope I can help her."
When they arrived at the apartment and walked up the stairs, the blonde teacher said.
"Please, Juumonji-sensei."
Seiji was worried about Mika's condition, but his own problems were not small either.
Eight o 'clock tonight …
He felt a little pressured, but when he walked to the front of his house, he forced himself to relax and showed a natural smile.
Then he opened the door.
"I'm back, Little Shi."
What he saw was a clean house … very clean and tidy!
The floor, the walls, the windows, the ceiling, the furniture … Everything that could be cleaned was wiped clean, and it even seemed to be sparkling.
It seemed that Little Shi did a thorough cleaning at home.
Seiji brought his things into the apartment and saw that his adopted younger sister was walking out of her room.
"Welcome back, Seiji -san."
Shika Kagura only did two things at home by herself: clean up and write her novel.
During this time, a young woman who claimed to be the landlord came by to greet her. She politely responded, but as usual, she kept her distance from the woman's good intentions.
Although she now had a family, her physical constitution hadn't changed at all, nor would her way of interacting with others change.
She was happy that her adopted older brother had brought her a present, but it didn't really matter as long as he was back.
After that, the two of them went to an electronics store together.
They bought an LCD television and a large refrigerator, which they immediately transported back to their home and installed.
Then, they went to the supermarket to buy ingredients for dinner.
Shika Kagura wanted to cook by himself, but Seiji insisted on helping.
The two of them cooked a scrumptious dinner together.
The feeling of home was even stronger than yesterday.
Shika Kagura was enjoying his blissful life.
However.
After finishing dinner and washing the dishes, Seiji told Natsuya about how he'd been found.
"It's like this... I need to go for a bit, and I don't know when I'll be back, so I might be late."
"Just as I said this morning, nothing will happen, so don't worry."
"I've already experienced a Yin-Yang Master duel, and this time, I'm only facing a Spirit-branded Retainer. It's really nothing, so don't worry."
Shika Kagura looked directly at him.
She was unable to relax.
How could she not be worried?
Previously, when he went to participate in the duel, she waited in her room. That uncomfortable feeling of torment welled up in her heart again.
Seiji didn't know what to say to his adopted younger sister's silence.
He felt an urge in his heart... since it was difficult to express it with words, he might as well use his actions.
He stood up and gently pulled the black-haired girl up, hugged her, and gently patted her head.
'Just like last time, I'll return safely, so all you need to do is wait this time.'
Seiji conveyed such a feeling.
Shika Kagura could feel such a feeling.
Something flashed in her eyes as she slowly closed her eyes, hugged him, and felt his warmth.
Not long after.
Seiji set off.
He had already investigated the Nagawa amusement park.
It was an abandoned amusement park that had closed down six years ago. For some unknown reason, it hadn't been redeveloped, and now there were only rusty abandoned amusement facilities and endless weeds... that seemed to be the case.
He hailed a taxi and told the driver where he wanted to go. As expected, he saw a confused expression on the driver's face.
"You're not thinking of going to that amusement park, are you, bro?"
The middle-aged driver tried to start a conversation after he started driving.
Seiji simply smiled and didn't respond.
"It's best not to go there, especially at this time... I heard that it's haunted," the driver continued.
"I heard that people heard strange noises coming from inside, as well as strange lights that seemed like will-o '-wisps...
I think that the reason the amusement park closed down was because there was an accident and someone died, and no one went there anymore, so it couldn't continue operating.
Legend has it that some bored youngsters went there to play a tournament, but all of them disappeared, and they haven't been found to this day. "
Seiji didn't pay much attention to this.
But then, he suddenly realized that the amusement park couldn't possibly be a special arena for Yin Yang Master duels, could it?
Hmm... that was possible.
If the amusement park wasn't opened for so long, hearing strange noises, and seeing strange lights... it could all be explained. As for people going missing... if this was true, then it was likely that they were killed to keep their mouths shut.
Time passed as he thought about it.
The taxi arrived at its destination.
The abandoned amusement park was pitch-black under the night sky.
To be honest, it was rather frightening to watch.
The driver took the taxi fare and drove off.
Seiji stood in front of the entrance in a daze for a while.
Should he wait here, or should he go in?
He figured that he should wait here.
The amusement park was so large, and the heavens knew where he was going. It wasn't like the woman gave him a specific location.
The night breeze blew past him.
It felt rather cold.
