Mygo, are you all yanderes?

"..."

Kusano Akira didn't want to go in.

First of all, he stated that he did not believe he was afraid of death or ghosts, nor did he believe that the store actually posed a safety hazard—if it did, the store would have gone out of business long ago.

He was just looking at the store and felt that his "bad business" radar had gone off. This radar had gone off once in the morning when he was with Toyokawa Shoko, but at that time he didn't care much. He thought that a movie couldn't possibly do anything to him.

The result is that without Toyokawa Shoko, he himself might still be in a coma.

However, since he could accompany Toyokawa Shoko to the movie theater, he couldn't be so biased towards Wakaba Mutsu's haunted house.

So it's really not that he's afraid of this haunted house, really.

"...Let's go buy tickets."

"okay."

Kusano Akira and Wakaba Mutsu walked to the ticket counter where there was only one yawning staff member.

"Hello, two tickets."

"Ah—okay."

The staff member saw someone approaching, yawned one last time, and then began searching.

While the staff were searching, Kusano Akira looked around the haunted house.

Judging from what Yamada Ryo said, although this place isn't exactly a trendy spot, it usually does pretty good business. But right now it's unexpectedly deserted, with only him, Wakaba Mutsu, and the staff here.

The radar on the ground was getting louder and louder.

"Here are your tickets."

After the three of them found the tickets, the staff member handed them to the two with a formulaic smile on his face.

"I wish you both a pleasant trip."

Akira Kusano took the tickets, handed one to Mutsu Wakaba, took a deep breath, and entered the haunted house before her.

"Mu, remember to stay close to me. It's not that I'm scared, it's just that...where are you?"

As soon as he stepped into the haunted house, a gust of cold wind hit him, and eerie music emanated from a speaker whose location was unknown. Kusano Akira's steps unconsciously slowed down. He turned around to look at Wakaba Mutsuki and tell her not to get separated from him, but found that Wakaba Mutsuki, who had just come in with him, was no longer behind him.

Contains "..."

After his throat bobbed twice, the dark lines on Kusano Akira's face deepened, and his unease gradually solidified.

Okay, he admitted that he had been pretending before, and that he was actually a little afraid of ghosts, otherwise he wouldn't have been so wary of Mortis.

"Mu? Don't joke around..."

Kusano Akira's voice echoed in the empty haunted house. Although he tried his best to remain calm, a slight tremor could still be heard in the last syllable of his voice.

He felt that Ruoye Mutsu must have done it on purpose. No matter what, it was impossible for him to get lost at the entrance of the haunted house. Ruoye Mutsu must have started playing tricks again, seeing through his previous show of bravado, and deliberately walked away here to see him make a fool of himself.

"Seriously, I'm all alone..."

While complaining about Wakaba Mutsu's wickedness, Kusano Akira walked deeper into the haunted house.

So what if he's going to a haunted house alone? He's determined to show Wakaba Mutsu his courage.

"..."

Hiding in the shadows, Wakaba Mutsu watched as Kusano Akira, with a stern face, took two steps at a time as if walking on a tightrope, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

With Kusano Akira's terrible acting skills, how could she not see that he was actually afraid of the haunted house? And yet he insisted on pretending not to be afraid, using her as an excuse.

If Ye Mu gently raised her hand, untied the hair tie, and her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall. She deliberately covered her face with her hair, leaving only a little space for her eyes to observe. Then, she tiptoed, stretched out her arms, and walked slowly behind Kusano Akira with light and silent steps.

"..."

Just as Kusano Akira was tense and on guard against the haunted house staff dressed in various different ways who might suddenly appear from the surroundings, he suddenly felt a soft touch from his back, followed by a heavy body climbing up his back.

Once he was completely on top of him, a pair of arms with a cool touch suddenly climbed up his neck, and cold fingertips brushed against his goosebump-covered cheeks. Suppressed sobs came from his ear, and he felt a few strands of hair fall down with the force of gravity, gently patting him.

"..."

Kusano Akira was rooted to the spot, all his muscles tensed, and his steps froze. He stiffly turned his head and glanced around, and the moment he did, his breath froze.

Like Sadako who just crawled out of the television, the body's owner was tightly wrapped around his neck with her arms. Her loose hair obscured her face, making it impossible for Kusano Akira to tell who she was. He could only vaguely see her eyes, hidden deep within her hair, staring straight at him.

Noticing Kusano Akira's gaze, Wakaba Mutsuki's lips curved slightly, and he uttered a few words in a chilling tone.

"I hate it so much!!"

"..."

Kusano Akira was sunk.

Volume 1: Chapter 155 (4 pages) (2k)

"sorry."

Outside the haunted house, the sun was shining brightly, and warm golden sunlight poured down on Wakaba Mutsu's green hair. Wakaba Mutsu blinked her big eyes, with an innocent expression, and apologized to Kusano Akira, who was pale with fright, in a tone that she thought was sincere but was actually flat.

"Do you know how much psychological harm such behavior can cause to a sixteen-year-old?"

"I'm afraid of ghosts, but they haven't harmed me in the slightest. I'm not afraid of people, but they've hurt me so badly...!"

"Wakaba Mutsu, your betrayal and evil do not surprise me. If I had known this would happen, I should have killed you and all your dark thoughts!"

Kusano Akira stared intently at Wakaba Mutsu, his teeth grinding together, his fists clenched tightly, his middle finger slightly protruding, as if he were preparing for something.

"I'm sorry, I won't do it next time."

Ruo Yemu almost buried her head in her chest as she whispered.

"You want a next time?!"

"no more chance."

"...Sigh, since you've put it that way, I guess I have no choice but to forgive you..."

Her slightly drooping eyelashes trembled gently. When Wakaba Mutsu heard Kusano Akira's words, which seemed to indicate that he was about to give in, her tense shoulder line quietly relaxed, and she slowly raised her head.

Although she knew Kusano Akira wouldn't be angry about this, she still thought he would definitely take this opportunity to retaliate. Unexpectedly, it seems that he really just let the matter pass.

If Ye Mu was completely unaware of the hidden elation in the other person's tone, as if a prank was about to succeed.

"You think I'd say that?!"

Sure enough, before Ruoye Mu could fully raise her head and see that the other party had indeed fallen for the trick and relaxed her guard, Kusano Akira chuckled and directly used his middle fingers to press against the left and right sides of her head and forcefully rotated it.

"...!"

be cheated!

Feeling the familiar pain reappear not far from her ear, Ruo Yemu's expression changed. 柒［◆0◎′

"Heh heh heh ha ha ha ha ha! How about that? Now you owe me something, and you have no legitimate reason to fight back, right!"

Kusano Akira tilted his head back and laughed wildly, his mouth stretching almost to his ears, even his little tongue sticking out. Looking at Wakaba Mutsumi, whose cheeks were puffed out and who was enduring the pain as if he didn't want to show any sign of defeat, a look of triumphant satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

It was all worth it for him to have acted like he had a weak heart and was really injured ever since he was frightened by Wakaba Mutsu, all to seize this opportunity so that Wakaba Mutsu wouldn't be able to fight back!

"..."

If Ye Mu stubbornly bit her lower lip, refusing to utter a single weak sob, she would only glare at him fiercely with eyes full of resentment, but this only made Kusano Akira laugh even more triumphantly.

"This is the expression I've been waiting for, Wakaba Mutsu. How are you feeling now?!"

"...!"

If Ye Muku only glared at Kusano Akira with an unyielding look.

Sure enough, she should have known. This person wasn't that fragile at all; how could she possibly be hurt by a joke of this magnitude?

I definitely won't fall for this trick again.

"Haha, don't make that face. If you hadn't had bad intentions first, you wouldn't have fallen for my trick."

Having completely satisfied his desire for revenge, Kusano Akira withdrew his hand, put his hands on his hips, and looked down at Wakaba Mutsumi, who was squatting on the ground rubbing the sides of her head, with a smug smirk.

"What you're doing is a classic case of 'harming others ultimately harming yourself,' understand?"

"..."

Ruo Ye Mu remained silent, only pursing her lips.

Be careful in the future, don't let her find a weakness, or you'll regret it.

"……Where is the next stop?"

He squatted down and ran his fingertips through the leather case to tie his hair back up as it had been, which had come loose during the prank. Then, he stood up, supporting himself on his knees, dusted off his clothes, and calmed himself before looking at Kusano Akira again.

"Hmm... let me see, the next stop is—also nearby, an amusement park."

Upon hearing Wakaba Mutsumi's words, Kusano Akira stopped his mischievous grin, took out a neatly folded schedule from his pocket, ran his finger over the densely packed schedule, stopped when he touched a certain spot, and pointed it out to Wakaba Mutsumi.

"Look, it's the 'third item' written above."

"The third item?"

"The itinerary has been revised, don't worry about it."

"Oh."

Wakaba Mu nodded.

"An amusement park? What's in there?"

"Let me see."

Kusano Akira took out his phone and searched for the name of the amusement park, looking up relevant information.

"This place has a high rating of 4... One, the carousel, how about it?" (Seven∴≡8∽〕≌)

"It's boring."

"Indeed, I think so too. There's also the Ferris wheel with high ratings, right? But a Ferris wheel isn't much more fun than a carousel. Maybe it's a bit more romantic at night? You can look at the stars together or something. It always appears in various entertainment works, like the male and female protagonists sitting together in a Ferris wheel, making promises under the starry sky—although I think all of that is fake. After all, you can't see stars in Tokyo at night, unless the male and female protagonists are all superpowered and can see the stars through light pollution."

"Then something happens to one of them, and the agreement is delayed or forgotten."

"...Some of them do act like that. Now that you mention it, this Ferris wheel is definitely not a ride. Pass, pass. And then there are the highly rated ones...haunted houses."

"Haven't you had enough of the haunted house?"

"I've had enough fun, and I don't want to play anymore anytime soon."

Kusano Akira sighed, put away the plan and his phone, and looked at Wakaba Mutsuki.

"Let's go first. We can decide what we want to do and what we don't want to do after we see the actual products. What if we don't want to do them now, but then we want to once we get there?"

"Ah."

"Okay, let's go—you go first, I just did something wrong, I'm a little hesitant to go first."

"..."

"Hey, no, why are you making a move now?"

"This is what they call 'harming others ultimately harming oneself'."

"Wakaba Mutsu is a cunning scholar, I hate you."

"It's okay, I like you."

"Then I thank you."

........................

The sunlight bathed the girl's pink hair in a golden hue. Chihaya Aine stared blankly at the two people across the street who were constantly competing to see who could walk behind her. She didn't even notice that the strawberry popsicle she was holding was melting in the sun and dripping onto the floor.

Thinking it was a hallucination caused by the heat of the sun, Chihaya Aine wiped her eyes with her sleeve and looked again.

Yes, it's definitely Wakaba Mutsumi and Kusano Akira.

"..."

Why would she see Kusano Akira and Wakaba Mutsu here?

Volume 1: Chapter 153. Guitar is too difficult (2k)

With a snap, she bit down on the popsicle, separating the melted part from the rest. Chihaya Aine looked at the two people across the street, her eyes filled with increasing confusion.

I wasn't mistaken after all; those two people opposite me were Kusano Akira and Wakaba Mutsumi.

Although she had never seen the two of them in their everyday clothes, she recognized them at a glance because of the particularly eye-catching color scheme on Ruoye Mu.
