Chapter 169 White Fox Forest
A month later.
Lin Yeming reviewed his achievements this month, noting that most of the entries were just one step away from being approved.
However, since it was time to keep the appointment, he temporarily put aside grinding for proficiency, since he was almost done anyway, so there was no rush.
Yumi Kenmura's school is called Moriki Gakuin, named after the many trees in the vicinity.
The reason for this trip is that this year marks the 20th anniversary of Senmo Academy.
Just as Lin Yeming was calculating the time, a man and a woman arrived at a forest called White Fox in Senmu Academy.
In the dead of night, Tetsuji Miyano and Mifuko Sugawa wandered heavily through the forest.
"Is this enough?"
Mifuko looked around and said, but Miyano thought about it for a moment and still felt it was inappropriate, so he refused.
Seeing Miyano's reaction, Mifuko became somewhat impatient, but considering that what they were about to do was something that couldn't be shown to others, she could only continue forward.
The two of them had been in the forest for fifteen minutes, and their initial excitement had given way to fatigue.
During his student days, Miyano was a member of the judo club and even participated in the National Games. Physical strength was an advantage for him.
But a hero doesn't dwell on past glories. Now, more than ten years after graduation, he has become a middle-aged man with a large belly and is increasingly concerned about his pants size.
With each step he took, he felt an increasing weight on his back.
The same applies to the spiritual level.
Because at that moment, she was carrying her wife into this forest.
Just then, Mifuko's voice came from ahead again.
"Ah, I think this place is quite nice, why don't you come and take a look too?"
Miyano dragged his heavy steps to the place Mifukuko had mentioned, and upon looking at it, he realized that it was indeed quite suitable.
This is a sunken area surrounded by a ring of trees.
These trees have enclosed the depression in this area into a huge circle, making it look like an ancient Roman gladiatorial arena.
"Hey, take another look here. Is this a good place to plant it?"
Miyano carefully examined the surroundings and concluded that this place was neither a man-made space nor a resting place in a park or forest.
In other words, this place meets all his requirements, one of which is secrecy.
"Hey, can you hurry up?!"
Mifuko urged impatiently, looking like she couldn't hold back any longer.
Miyano made up her mind and put down the bag on her back.
Even though he strangled his wife himself, Miyano still couldn't understand how she could die in front of him without any fear or emotional reaction.
That calm tone is still vivid in my mind.
"We still need to find a place to bury her."
The two were accomplices in the murder, but the other party's reaction made him somewhat amazed by the terror of women.
Suddenly, the trees swayed without wind.
Miyano felt a chill run down her spine, but she had no choice but to grit her teeth, take the shovel from Mifuko, and get to work.
The soil in the forest was hard and heavy, forcing them to exert all their strength, leaving them no time to think about anything else.
The sounds of the trees were drowned out by the sound of shoveling.
With a clang, a small stone hit the window.
"Haruna, it's time to go."
After seeing Kentaro Koga outside the window, Fukudome Yumeko urged Haruna to hurry up and leave.
He specially invited Haruna to stay at his house for tonight's operation.
"Um…"
Although she verbally agreed, Matsushita Haruna did not want to go out in the middle of the night to participate in this exploration mission.
This story begins at breakfast this morning.
Kentaro believes that ghosts haunt the "White Fox Forest," but Yumeko scoffs at such things and thinks Kentaro is scared.
The teacher was also present during the argument that day, and Kentaro eventually backed down, which prevented a bigger conflict from escalating.
However, Kentaro later found the dream and made a promise with her.
"If you don't believe me, do you dare to go with me tonight at three o'clock and walk on the stage in the White Fox Forest?"
It was an urban legend, the tale of the White Fox Forest.
According to legend, around 3 a.m. every night, the ghosts of the dead wander in the White Fox Forest.
Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a demon living in the White Fox Forest, who made a living by stealing the villagers' children.
The evil spirit was destroyed by a samurai who was passing through the village.
Although the evil spirit was destroyed, the souls of the innocent people whose souls were devoured by it could not be reincarnated. They would wander around that circular depression every day, which the locals called the stage.
Yumeko initially found the suggestion troublesome, but Kentaro's goading got her to agree immediately, while Haruna unfortunately ended up being the referee...
Haruna was also hesitant. Unlike Yumeko, she wasn't fearless and still harbored some apprehension about ghost stories. But since she was already involved in this agreement, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and go along with it.
The two cautiously made their way towards the White Fox Forest. Moonlight spilled onto the ground, casting dappled shadows of the trees that resembled menacing monsters. The surroundings were eerily quiet, save for the soft sounds of their footsteps and their rapid breathing.
Meanwhile, deep in the forest, Miyano and Sugawa Mifukuko were still digging a hole with all their might, their backs soaked with sweat, mixed with their inner fear and tension. Unaware that the atmosphere around them was growing increasingly eerie, a chill creeping over them.
Fukudari Yumeko and Matsushita Haruna approached the area of the legendary "stage," their heartbeats growing increasingly rapid. Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, rustling the leaves as if someone were whispering.
Haruna unconsciously grabbed Yumeko's sleeve, and although Yumeko tried to be strong, she trembled slightly.
Just as Miyano and Sugawa Mifuko were about to finish digging the pit, they heard light footsteps and hushed voices from not far away.
Miyano instantly became alert, stopped what she was doing, and nervously looked toward the source of the sound.
Mifuko also looked terrified. The two of them didn't dare to breathe and stood frozen in place, their hearts pounding as if they would jump out of their throats at any moment.
Fukuru Yumeko and Matsushita Haruna, out of fear, slowed their pace further, taking each step cautiously, afraid of disturbing something.
Their eyes darted nervously around, trying to make out their surroundings in the darkness.
Yumeko went inside and saw a man and a woman burying something.
When Mifuko saw that the person who came was a little girl, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Little sister, what did you see just now?"
“I see you seem to have buried something.”
