*Hiroshi*

After the mouths had vanished...I had called Kamishiro over again and tell her the new details. She came back to my apartment a couple of minutes later.

Kaede: Hiroshi-kun. I gotten your call. So you were visited by Tomoki himself last night!

Me: Yes. He told me to go look for his body. Also. That's not the only thing that was messaged to me.

Kaede: Huh?

I've told Kamishiro about the mouth incident.

Kaede: I see....so another game Hannya-Sama has prepared for you. Gashadokuro Hakamori...

Me: Have you heard any rumors about it.

Kamishiro shook her head looking really disappointed.

Kaede: Not really...OOParts Monthly hasn't updated anything about it. But I have heard of what Gashadokuro are. They called "Starving Skeleton" in japanese. The Gashadokuro present themselves as enormous, malevolent, and angry skeleton figures that are 90 feet tall; around 15 times bigger than humans. They are supposedly indestructible and can become invisible at will. At least according to the Urban Legend.

Oh shit....

Kaede: Meanwhile...Hakamori literally means "Graveskeeper". I haven't heard any rumors regarding a graveskeeper.

So it must be a new urban legend that just popped up.

Kaede: Sorry that I have remained clueless. Ever since the scenario that took place days ago. I've been a tight schedule.

I can't blame her though for not knowing. At least she tried. She has been a huge help lately.

Telling me about all these ghosts I don't know.

Their strengths and weaknesses.

Their backstories. Things that me, Manaka, and the other two didn't knew.

Me: Don't worry. You been a huge help. I guess we can meet up with Himeno and Yamada about this.

Maybe they know something about Gashadokuro Hakamori.

Me: Let's go see them. Last time I checked, they're should be at Yamada's hideout in the Underground.

Kamishiro raised an eyebrow.

Kaede: Are you sure it's safe for someone like me to be there...?

Oh right. I forgot she is a walking fanservice.

Me: Don't worry. Most of guys there are harmless. Well...most of them.

Kaede: *Frowns* That doesn't make things better for me.

Me: As long as your with me. You'll be fine.

I am one of Himeno's best hackers. None of those fools would try and touch me even if they wanted too. But as long as Kamishiro is by my side. I'm sure she'll be fine. It's best to keep an close eye on her.

Me: Let's go.

Kaede: Wait. What about your Uncle? Doesn't he have someone watching you? Like that Policeman from earlier?

Me: Don't worry. I told him I'm just hanging with Himeno for the day. Luckily for us, Uncle doesn't know Seiya is part of the Yakuza.

She nodded as we left my apartment all the way towards the hideout. It was located in Kowloon. The fastest way to get there was my motocycle.

-Later-

We arrived at Yamada's hideout.

Me: Here we are.
