Chapter 22: This man is too warm!
It is not easy to clean the haunted house where Kayako is located, but Takagi Naohito is already used to cleaning.
His parents are on business trips away from home all year round. Naohito Takagi has already developed a self-reliance and self-reliance habit. He wears rubber gloves, a plastic bag wrapped around his head, and even wears a mask in his mouth to prevent dust from flying to him.
Takagi Naohito began to carry out a thorough cleaning of the ghost house.
Fortunately, the water and electricity in the ghost house were all connected. After a few seconds of dirty water filled with rust smell, clear water flowed out of the faucet. Takagi Naohito held a bucket in one hand and a rag in the other hand and started wiping the dust.
Kayako didn't dare to come forward, so she could only look outside through the gap in the room. She looked at Takagi Naohito who had worked hard to clean, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
That is the warmth that even the power of resentment cannot be suppressed.
This man did something that moved her, but this does not mean that she could be influenced. People are creatures who are good at deceiving, so Kayako was deceived.
She didn't believe Takagi Naohito, the other party might just be pretending.
So, Kayako began to watch Takagi Shangren clean the room quietly in the room, from the bathroom, living room, kitchen, and then to the bedroom on the second floor.
The places that Takagi Naohito wiped were completely renewed, and the room was very large. It took Takagi Naohito to clean up the dust on both floors, which took a lot of time. It was almost dark.
But before this was over, he picked up the big scissors he found in the room and began to trim the shrubs that grew outside the haunted house. These shrubs blocked the sunlight and made the inside of the haunted house look extremely gloomy.
There are also those fallen leaves and weeds that have accumulated for many years. Naohito Takagi swept them together with a broom, and sprayed the weeds with the herbicide I just bought, and the fallen leaves have other uses.
But now it is all turned into firewood under the trim of Takagi Naohito. He also dug a pit in the backyard with iron shrubs, built a bonfire with stones and used it to put the fallen leaves and shrubs into it and spark it little by little.
The backyard of Jiayazi's house suddenly became extremely tidy, leaving only a few old trees and a dry well.
Under the night, Takagi Naohito looked at the bonfire and took a short rest. He bought some cups of noodles, bread and drinks in a nearby 24h convenience store. He was hungry for a day and didn't care about his appearance at this moment.
"I really miss the time I was barbecuing in the mountains with a few relatives in my hometown."
Naohito Takagi's hometown is far from Tokyo, almost on the edge of Japan. It is not as prosperous as Tokyo, but it has a distinct rural atmosphere.
The forests there are lush and streams flow through the mountains. The wandering fish are clearly visible, and even wild animals can be seen in the forest.
Naohito Takagi once caught fish and grilled fish with a few adults near the stream. It was a wonderful memory.
Looking up at the starry sky, Takagi Naohito has wanted to go back to his hometown over the years, but his parents are unwilling to do so. It seems that there is something hidden from Takagi Naohito.
What Takagi Naohito didn't know was that the tall woman he saw in a white dress and a straw hat was a very famous legend in his hometown, named Bachi.
It is rumored that she specializes in targeting children, seducing them and then killing them.
The old man is different from modern people. They believe that there are ghosts and gods in the world, so they asked Takagi Naohito's parents to take him to Tokyo to escape, and they could not come back before the age of eighteen, otherwise they would be killed by the Lord Bachi.
But Takagi Naohito's family didn't know that something indescribable had already happened between Takagi Naohito and Lord Bachi.
On that dreamy night, Takagi Naohito lost his virginity early on.
"Meow!"
A cat moan interrupted Takagi Naohito's memory. He thought it was the child coming again, but he looked in the direction where the sound came, not a human, but a cat.
Real black cat.
"What a cute little guy."
Naohito Takagi pinched a piece of it from the ham sausage and handed it to the black cat.
The black cat raised its tail high and slowly approached the ham sausage on Takagi Shangren's hand. Takagi Shangren also saw a small amount of resentment on the black cat, but very few, it should be the pet of the former Jiayako family.
"You're so hungry. As long as you don't bite my finger, you'll have this ham sausage for you~"
Cats are very psychic creatures, and black cats are even worse. Not to mention Japan, there are rumors of cats even in Egypt, Greece, Europe and America.
"Hey, little guy, can you tell your master for me, do I actually like her?"
The black cat looked at Takagi Shangren with a human nature, then turned around and left with the ham sausage in his mouth.
Takagi Shangren didn't chase him. He couldn't catch up with the cat, so he got up and patted the dust on his body. Takagi Shangren looked at the empty courtyard and looked at the house. He had a lot to do.

The next morning.
When the sun rises eastward, the sun shines through the windows into the haunted house. Takagi Naohito was drying various sheets, bedding, curtains and other cloth products on the clothes rack that had just been pulled up in the backyard.
He removed the wooden boards from the window last night and began cleaning some essential daily necessities.
Needless to say, in order to wash away the stains on it, Takagi Shangren even used the most primitive method of hitting the laundry. Although it was not as white as the advertisement could reflect, the sheet was at least white.
Kayako looked at Takagi Naohito from the small window of the attic. She, like Takagi Naohito, didn't sleep all night.
This man only took one day to do something that the developer hadn't done for decades, and he made this haunted house look like a normal residence again.
And what was also washed away was the lingering resentment in Jia Yazi's heart.
Her eyes became softer and no longer as aggressive as before. She knew very well what Takagi Naohito meant in the labor he had put into this day, just like a male peacock spreading her feathers to attract female peacocks.
Generally speaking, it is difficult for ordinary women to be moved by Takagi Naohito's labor.
But Jiaya is different. She is a piece of ice that has closed her heart all year round and only exudes her chill to the outside world. But today, all the sunlight shines into her heart. Even if it is the ice, it has begun to melt at this moment.
The ice gradually changes towards the gentle water.
And Jiayako looked at the sunshine and wanted to extend her hand.
After finishing the sheets, Takagi Shangren cleaned the haunted house completely and returned to the living room. The current living room was completely different from two days ago, and everything was shining.
He yawned, and he was a little sleepy even though he hadn't slept all night.
After returning to the sleeping bag, Takagi Shangren almost fell down. The sunlight shone into the living room, reflecting on his face that was already sunny, looking like an angel.
He slept too well and did not notice that Kayako appeared in the living room.
And, Kayako pulled open Takagi Naohito's sleeping bag.
