(Translated and Arranged by Saya)

194 (OP):

“Wait a minute… Wasn’t that what’s happened in the garden just now?” 

T san: 

“Sumimasen that was only one of the phenomena .”

“What? But those bones, and the man…?”

T san: 

“Sure…. But it’s obvious that none of them was a grave-like object… that was sort of a dumping ground for bones….” 

“Huh? So what is it then?” 

Okusama: 

“I’m so sorry. The grave-like object is on the second floor.”

Whaaaaaaaaaaat!!!???

That can’t be true!!!!

I’d already had a bellyful of strange experiences earlier…. I had done my very best up to now, even though I was a person who would easily get scared and had never trained as an exorcist… 

Would I be able to go home with my head still attached to my body…? 

I think they read my thoughts from my facial expression.

T san dropped to his knees, almost prostrating himself on the ground: 

“Please, you saved us earlier, and you can surely save us again.” 

“No… I mean… er…. Just as I said before…that was just a fluke…”

Can this be real …? Perhaps I am dreaming…

My mind was refusing to face the reality.

195 (OP):

I remembered then how T san had said “it’s one of them” when we were talking about the garden…

“Uh…I would like you to be honest with me and tell me everything. So we have the bones, and the thing upstairs— is there anything else?”

T san: 

“No, all that is left to do is — I mean, what we really wanted you to do was deal with the thing upstairs. That’s it. That man appeared right after Obōsan arrived, so we had no time to explain about the second floor. My sincere apologies.” 

“But, from what you told me, the strange phenomena started happening after you dug up the bones in the garden…”

Okusama:

“Yes, that’s right. The thing upstairs started appearing right after that too…”

“If that is the case, it might already be gone by now.”

T san:

“I hope so, too. But I would like you to come with us to the second floor to make sure it’s really ok again.”

“Please hold on a second. First, you need to give me more information about the phenomena related to the second floor.”

T san:

“Oh, of course…”

“And this may be presumptuous of me to say this to you but — have you never considered moving out of the house? Even someone like me, who is a monk, is frightened of this. I seriously think moving house would be the best option for you.”

T san: 

“…..”

Okusama:

“Sumimasen…”

“Er…sorry, I said too much…please do forgive me.”

I could feel that I was becoming more and more mentally unstable. I felt a strange irritation that I normally never felt.

197(OP): 

“T san, there is something you told me in the car that has been bothering me.”

T san:

“Sure, what is it ?”

“Well…You two live alone, without children, and there are no other houses around — yet, you told me that you were “afraid of being overheard.” Does that have anything to do with the thing upstairs?”

T san:

“……yes.”

“Okusan, I also have a question for you, related to something you said about the garden.”

Okusama:

“…..please, say it.”

“When we were having a discussion about whether the man was wearing a T shirt or not, you said ‘in the case of the man, I always see him wearing a T-shirt.’” (Note: see part 4)

Okusama:

“……yes.”

“Does that mean there is some other humanoid entity upstairs, besides the man we saw earlier?”

Okusama:

“……yes, although it doesn’t only happen upstairs now… but, especially upstairs, sumimasen.”

Hmmmm, will I really be able to sort this out… I thought, but on the other hand, I was becoming increasingly annoyed, which somehow brought about in me a renewed determination and a sense of mission to see this through to the end.

198(OP): 

I was hoping to continue for longer, but I have some preparation to do for tomorrow, so please forgive me for taking a break again halfway through the story. 

I think at this rate I might be able to finish it tomorrow. 

I’m sorry again that the narrative is getting so long. 

Gasshō (Note: 合掌. hands pressed together in prayer).
