Chapter 164 Late-Night Stalking?

It is said that there was a very gloomy guest who stayed in this hot spring hotel and stayed in room 7 of the main building.

That's right, our rooms are 13 and 14, which means that the guest room is opposite the window.

And the gloomy guest didn't want anything since he moved in, no need to prepare meals for him, and no one was allowed to approach his room.

Although the guest behaved very strangely, after all, he paid a deposit, so the store didn't pay attention.

However, on the third night of the guest's stay, all the rooms in the main building heard a scream. People opened the door of room 7, and saw a hanging figure swaying left and right.

Later, people said that the man was cursed by Yuanchi and couldn't bear the pressure and hanged himself.

After that, many people who stayed in room 7 said that they felt there was something in this room, and it was particularly depressing.

Under the dim yellow light, this is the small table lamp that Fujiwara Chihua brought herself, and the other three sat on the bed attentively, listening to the story told by Fujiwara Chihua.

Chitanda showed a curious expression, "Where did Fujiwara hear this story from?"

"Hehe, the campus forum."

Uchiha Ling nodded, "OK, it can be determined to be false."

Chitanda Eru pulled open the curtains, "We are in room 14, and the opposite is room 7."

Yukinoshita looked at Uchiha Ling, "This is just a story made up by students when they are bored... and why did you stay in the girls' room?"

Uchiha Ling ignored Yukino's scrutinizing eyes, "Didn't we say that we would tell ghost stories together in the evening? I came here because I was worried that you would be scared."

Yukinoshita: "Because you stayed in the room, we were scared!"

Fujiwara Chika pointed at Uchiha Ling, "Then it's Ling's turn to speak, and you can go back to sleep after you finish speaking."

"I'm not good at telling ghost stories, uh... midterm exams are coming up, right?"

Fujiwara Chika's expression froze, "Don't... don't say it, I forgot to review again..."

Chitanda sat next to Fujiwara Chika and touched her head, "No problem, Yukino and I can help you with your studies!"

Fujiwara Chika pouted, "We're all out here to play, so let's not talk about topics that will ruin the atmosphere! Ling, please change the topic."

In the room, the first in the grade smiled, and the fifth and sixth in the grade didn't understand the feelings of Fujiwara Chika, who ranked around 100 in the grade.

"Forget it, I'm going back."

Uchiha Ling got up and went back to the room. He was indeed not good at telling ghost stories, but would telling what Natsume encountered when he was a child count?

Speaking of which, if Natsume wrote an autobiography, it would probably become popular as a novel.

After returning to the room, Uchiha Ling looked out the window and saw a nimble figure appearing below the main building of the hotel. It was the little fox he met in the hot spring.

Just when Uchiha Ling was a little curious, another person came out of the main entrance of the hotel, and the little fox ran away immediately when he saw the person coming.

Uchiha Ling opened his Sharingan, and the person who left the hot spring hotel... was the hotel's proprietress, Hinazuru Akina.

Why did Xiao Ai's mother go out in the middle of the night, and the direction she went was not the streets in the city, but the mountains and forests.

Although the back mountain of Shuzhiyuan was open and there were basically no wild beasts, there were many mountain spirits like the little fox.

He opened the window and flipped down from the second floor. Uchiha Ling chose to follow quietly.

On a quiet night, Uchiha Ling followed a beautiful young woman in the dim woods. Please don't get me wrong, he was just worried that Xiao Ai's mother was in danger.

However, the people following Hinazuru Akina were not only Uchiha Ling, but also a little fox.

"Little fox, explain, what is the Hinazuru boss lady doing out in the middle of the night?"

Uchiha Ling walked around Makiko Fox, and then looked at Hinazuru Akina who was going deeper into the forest.

The little fox sighed, "This human often comes to see Master Yingguang, but ordinary people can't see Master Yingguang's spirit at all."

"Originally, I wanted to help Master Yingguang pass the message, but Master Yingguang said that she is different from us monsters who have entered the world, and cannot form a bond with humans."

Uchiha Ling: "Cannot form a bond, why?"

The little fox shook his head. You have to ask Master Yingguang about this. I am not very clear. After all, I am a monster who is preparing to enter the world like my brother and sister.

Beside the pond late at night, this is the legendary Yuanchi of Hinazuru Inn, but the so-called Yuanchi is just a habitat for fireflies.

Hinazuru Akina spread the blanket on the ground, and then sat down quietly, just silently watching the fireflies flying around the pond.

What is puzzling is that Hinazuru Akina is holding a golden yukata in her hand. And the clean yukata was soaked by her on the water.

What is she doing... washing clothes? Is she coming to the pond in the forest just to wash clothes?

Uchiha Ling stood up and walked straight over. He didn't need to hide anything. Instead of investigating secretly, he might as well ask proactively.

Hearing the footsteps, Hinazuru Akina was obviously surprised that someone would come.

"You are the boy from Shuchiin. Why don't you rest in your room? Do you also want to come and enjoy the fireflies?"

"I guess so... But what is Aunt Hinazuru doing here?"

Uchiha Ling's eyes were on the side of Hinazuru Akina, and there was a guy sitting on the blanket that ordinary people couldn't see.

A woman with long golden hair was looking at this side with curiosity.

Hinazuru Akina smiled, "I just want to return the clothes she lent me that year."

Return the clothes? Before returning the clothes, you have to throw them into the water to soak them... Hinazuru Akina obviously saw that Uchiha Ling didn't understand, and could only sigh helplessly.

"Because only when the clothes are wet, she will jump out and scold me... But after so many years, she has never appeared again."

Uchiha Ling moved his eyes away from the blonde beauty and looked at Hinazuru Akina in front of him.

"Who... is she?"

Hinazuru Akina lowered her head and looked at the soaked golden yukata in her hand.

"She is my benefactor and friend. When I was very young, she often sat here and watched the fireflies flying all over the sky with me."

As she said, Hinazuru Akina stood up and took back the blanket.

"Whenever I feel bored, I will come here to have a look. But it's getting late today, shall we go back together?"

Uchiha Ling shook his head, "Auntie Hinazuru, please go back first, I want to appreciate these fireflies more."

Hina Hinazuru passed by Uchiha Ling and suddenly stopped.

"You can look at the fireflies, but I hope you won't hurt those little guys... Fireflies have a short life span, and I don't want them to deviate from their original destiny because of human intervention."

"Of course... I just want to appreciate this beautiful scenery that is hard to see normally."

Hina Hinazuru left, and Uchiha Ling walked towards the blonde woman.

"Excuse me, may I ask if you are Lady Yingguang?"

The blonde woman who was still sitting there turned her head, "You... are different from ordinary people, you can see me."

"Of course."

Uchiha Ling came closer and looked at the beautiful Milky Way on the lake composed of fireflies with Yingguang.

"Auntie Hinazuru just now... is she talking about you?"

Yingguang nodded. "Well, she is also my benefactor...and friend."
