Ghost Hunt:Volume3 Chapter4
ContentsChapter 4 - Curse[]1[]
The next day, although it's daytime, I had somewhat creepy thoughts in the conference room. Nobody came yet. I was waiting for everyone to show up.
The door opened, and I thought they finally arrived. But when I turned around, it was Taka and Kasai-san who peered in.
"Eh? You're alone again?"
"No one arrived yet." I was strangely relieved. That didn't show up in this room. Although I told myself that it was targeting Naru, I was still uncertain.
" 'Not yet,' you say? It'll be lunch soon, you know?"
"...Yeah. Everyone's tired. I myself don't want to look at the desk work and do it."
"Well... Did you make some progress in your job?"
I smiled vaguely. I was wondering if Kasai-san herself wasn't to blame in this mysterious phenomenon. After I recounted yesterday's incident, it didn't bother her at all.
"Did you eat lunch already? If you don't mind, would you like to eat with us?"
"...Oh, I didn't bring my own lunch."
"That's what I thought." Taka held out something wrapped with a table napkin. "I also made your share~"
"Eeh, no way! I'm so happy~" I squealed, teary-eyed.
"Hehe. Kasai-senpai said, 'I wonder if Mai is eating lunch regularly.' Well, we talked about how you don't look like you're eating well. So I thought, 'Perhaps I'll make an extra lunch today.' "
I-I'm so happy~ "...Sorry for always troubling you."
"It's an untold promise~ <3"
"I'll make lunch for you tomorrow." Kasai-san beamed.
"...That's not good..."
"It's okay. Anyway, I forgot to tell you yesterday," Kasai-san said while unpacking her lunch. "Kei-sensei said you should tell her if there's anything she could assist you with. I'll also help, so let me know whatever I can do."
"Wow."
"She was impressed, after I told her Shibuya-san is an onmyouji. He's an admirable sort of person after all~"
"Really?"
"Yes~"
Taka rose and said aloud, "For me, Bou-san is better."
I gripped my chopsticks, but didn't declare anything. "Gotcha. In fact, you like him as a musician as well, don't you?" I delved.
"Yeah~"
"As a bassist, he's better," agreed Kasai-san too.
"Yeah~ <3"
Yes, yes. That was a good reply.
The three of us ate lunch enjoyably and afterwards talked about foolish things while sipping tea. It was then that Naru finally arrived. Lin-san followed behind him.
"...Kasai-san?"
"Ah, good afternoon." Kasai-san raised a hand to Naru. After that, she and Taka stood and waved their hands to me. "Then, I'm leaving. I have PE this afternoon."
"Okay."
"Really, let me know if there's anything I can help you with."
"Thanks. I shall find a mountain of work for you."
