Sorry // for showing you something so weird.
Just forget about it!
Tokiwa-san.

It was fantastic!

Page 27

Really...?
Really...
This main character...
This is me!
This town.. surrounded by mountains.. // The country-side with nowhere to go...
I can relate to everything // that's written here...!

Page 28

Is the "consistent" you spoke of before.
Abnormal... Beyond reasoning. // An incident that makes you believe a real ghost did it..
Slowly revealing it ethically, // giving the ghost a shape..
I... // I could

It's interesting!
Hurry up and write it!
I...

Wh- What do you think?
Yeah! Sounds good.
That was sick!
Yeah!
Really!?

Hey, when I finish a part // would you read it for me?
Ah, the live is over.
Of course!
Really!?
I really do like narration tricks...
