Chapter 89

After saying goodbye to Lin Ye, Hina Tachibana walked straight toward the train station at the intersection ahead.

It was late at night, a breeze was blowing, bringing a hint of coolness. The air in Chiba, located by the sea, was even more humid. She couldn't help but hug her clothes tighter to reduce heat dissipation.

"Lin-kun is actually quite normal to get along with, not as bad as Hiratsuka-senpai said,"

"Maybe it's because of the amnesia!"

Lin Ye had lost the memory of his mischievous period and showed his initial, truly kind, and well-behaved side. This made Hina Tachibana think that Lin Ye's amnesia might also be a good thing.

Closer to the train station,

Hina Tachibana couldn't help but quicken her pace. The sound of her high heels stepping on the solid, flat asphalt road made a crisp 'tap-tap' sound.

'Sniff-sniff...'

Suddenly,

Hina Tachibana smelled a faint burnt smell, like the smell of charcoal when barbecue is overcooked.

Pungent,

She frowned slightly, but didn't think much of it, instead quickening her pace involuntarily,

"Probably some family nearby is having a barbecue!"

But after walking no more than two steps, under the illumination of the streetlight ahead, a black figure appeared.

The elongated shadow covered his face, making it impossible to see what he looked like.

Hina Tachibana subconsciously slowed her pace, turning left to bypass him to avoid having too much interaction with the stranger ahead.

Public security in Japan is good, and there's no need to worry too much about safety on the road at night, but as an adult woman, and a beautiful woman with a good-looking face, it is necessary to maintain a sense of vigilance.

She knew very well that there are always bad people in this world, and once she encounters one, she will encounter very terrible things.

It's just...

After turning to bypass him and walking no more than two steps, the figure ahead also moved, blocking her path directly in front again.

Hina Tachibana's heart tightened, and the alarm sounded immediately.

If this were a coincidence, it would be too abnormal.

Therefore,

Hina Tachibana deliberately slowed her pace and walked toward the other side.

As a result...

The figure moved his steps again to block the path directly in front.

The distance between the two was about fifteen meters.

Suppressing the anxiety in her heart, Hina Tachibana felt she should return. Her right hand had already reached into her bag and gripped her phone, so she could call the police and contact the police at any time.

The burnt smell was even stronger.

Along with her breathing, it stimulated Hina Tachibana's brain again and again.

She retreated with small, vigilant steps, while the figure ahead moved slowly step by step, his body walking as if there was still some stiffness.

The distance between the two became closer.

Hina Tachibana couldn't help it anymore and decided to speak up to warn him first. If she was wrong, she would sincerely apologize to the person in front of her.

"Sir, hello! May I ask if you can not deliberately block my path?"

Don't provoke someone with malicious intent first.

"If you need money, I can give you some here,"

She even took out a 10,000-yen Fukuzawa Yukichi note. To be honest, she still felt quite pained.

Having just joined Sobu High, her monthly salary was only 200,000, but compared to her own safety, this 10,000 yen was nothing.

It's just that Hina Tachibana saw that the other party was still indifferent, and instead, he slowly took steps and moved closer step by step.

"My student is right behind, I'm going to call the police."

She showed her phone, facing the dial screen toward the approaching figure.

But the other party still had no reaction.

And at this moment,

Under the illumination of the streetlight's white light, the figure's face was clearly illuminated. On his humanoid face, pieces of pitch-black charcoal were cracking, and at the cracks, black-red liquid was flowing, with flesh and blood mixed together.

Hina Tachibana widened her eyes at this moment, and her brain fell into a brief moment of blankness.

"So... painful..."

"So... hot..."

The burnt smell rushed toward her, becoming increasingly stimulating and intense.

A monster!

Hina Tachibana finally reacted.

"Ahhh!"

The scream could no longer be controlled and was shouted out.

She took a step back and immediately turned to run, but a hand grabbed her shoulder,

With a 'thud', she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"Woo..."

Hina Tachibana, lying on the ground, looked at the figure behind her. The pitch-black figure became increasingly ferocious, and the grinning smile showed how terrible it was.

She kicked hard with both legs, trying to get away, but she found that her legs had unexpectedly lost their strength, and they were so soft that she couldn't use much strength at all.

It's over, it's over!

Hina Tachibana became increasingly anxious, and the panic in her heart gradually filled her.

'Swish!'

The charcoal figure's eyes suddenly protruded like dead fish, and the flesh on its face cracked, revealing the bright red flesh inside,

"Burn..."

It pounced over,

Hina Tachibana closed her eyes in fear and shouted out.

But when she came to her senses again, she found that there was another figure in front of her.

A familiar back.

"Lin... Lin Ye-kun?"

"Get up quickly, leave here with me."

Lin Ye helped up the panicked Hina Tachibana.

The moment he heard Hina Tachibana's scream, Lin Ye activated Time Stop and arrived in time. If he had been even ten seconds later, Hina Tachibana would probably have really died.
