This Japanese Monogatari Isn't Lame

Chapter 456. Rather Than Sorry Better to - (Make-up Update Completed!)


On the other side, at Shen Gu Residence.

Lying on the sofa and flicking her black-socked feet, Shen Gu Mirai proudly hung up the phone.

"Humph, staying by the phone is always the right choice! I just had a feeling that Mr. Temple would call me today!"

However...

"Curse artifacts from Yamanashi Prefecture, the Box of Calamity? Mr. Temple is really... always involved with some inexplicable things..."

Shen Gu Mirai snapped up from the sofa, then shuffled upstairs in her slippers and brought down her laptop.

After plugging in the charger, she placed her fingers on the touchpad and began to search for related information.

Shen Gu Mirai first entered the keywords "Yamanashi Prefecture, Box of Calamity."

But, just like Beichuan Si had found earlier, only a few pieces of information popped up in the search results.

"Uh, a curse artifact that kills others, but the user is also entangled with calamities..."

Shen Gu Mirai briefly scanned the information and memorized it.

But this was completely insufficient.

Shen Gu Mirai straightened her fair, delicate legs and stretched, "These things, Mr. Temple would surely be able to find too... they are entirely not enough. However—"

With her pale fingers, Shen Gu Mirai quickly tapped on the keyboard.

"Yamanashi Prefecture, high school forum."

This time, much more appeared.

Various threads discussed by students also caught the eyes of Shen Gu Mirai.

But...

Shen Gu Mirai raised her slender eyebrows.

As a guest, she could only access some public pages on the school websites and couldn't access pages where students discussed internally.

Shen Gu Mirai opened several school forum pages and, finding she couldn't access them, involuntarily frowned deeply.

But don't think that I'm out of options!

Shen Gu Mirai didn't ponder for long before she took out her phone and opened groups from her middle school down to her elementary school on LINE.

She even opened the chat group from her previous part-time job.

Shen Gu: "Is anyone studying in high schools in Yamanashi Prefecture? I urgently need a forum login ID and password for something."

After choosing to send this message, she also logged into her account on the North River Divine Support Association community.

After sending the same message there, her eyes shifted back to the LINE groups.

Changqi: "Wow wow wow! Isn't this Shen Gu? I just saw you on the Kyubei rankings recently! Always being the top of the grade is too impressive, right? I do know someone who studies in Yamanashi Prefecture, I'll send you his LINE number, you talk to him. But just to let you know, he's not the easiest person to deal with, he probably won't give you the ID and stuff that easily."

Seeing this message, Shen Gu Mirai's eyes flashed.

Good!

Shen Gu Mirai was never afraid of difficult people. More than that, she was afraid of people who refused to communicate with her.

As long as there was communication, she could achieve the results she wanted.

Shen Gu: "Anyway, thanks a lot to Class President Changqi. Send me the LINE number; I'll talk to him."

After receiving the LINE number from Changqi, Shen Gu Mirai exchanged a few more messages with the people from her part-time job group and then turned to look at the situation in the North River Divine Support Association.

In the private message box, several people had already sent her high school IDs and forum login passwords from Yamanashi Prefecture.

Collecting all these details, she logged into each high school forum using these IDs and passwords while keeping in touch with the owner of the LINE number she got from Class President Changqi.

About three minutes later.

"Now I've got everything!"

Shen Gu Mirai logged into various high school forums in Yamanashi Prefecture using the respective IDs and passwords.

Watching the myriad of pages in front of her, Shen Gu Mirai's fingers slipped, and the scroll wheel followed.

She discerned each piece of information while scanning for what she needed.

"The Box of Calamity... curse artifacts that affect others, their making process... human blood and the hair of the person casting the curse? Place them inside a black box..."

Shen Gu Mirai arched her eyebrows.

This method of production was clearly fake.

How could the real method of cursing someone be so simple?

She continued scrolling down.

"The consequences of cursing someone else have led to deep regrets."

"Is the Box of Calamity real or fake?"

"I have someone I particularly want to curse, can anyone tell me how to get the Box of Calamity...?"

The content varied wildly, and Shen Gu Mirai was almost dazzled by it.

Finally, her gaze stopped on a piece of information.

"The origin and acquisition methods of the Box of Calamity."

The title of this post was simple, and unlike the eye-catching titles before, it exuded a sense of simplicity.

Shen Gu Mirai did not hesitate and clicked into the post.

Upon entering, she immediately saw the first sentence posted by the anonymous user: "Everything here is based on stories told by my grandparents' generation; they always liked to tell me some strange tales about Yamanashi Prefecture. They have passed away now, so I thought I might as well share these things."

"The Box of Calamity. I remember it was a story that had been circulated in Yamanashi Prefecture quite early on, but because it indeed brought calamity, it gradually ceased to spread... only to start becoming popular again among the young people of Yamanashi Prefecture this year."

"Caution, what I am about to say next comes from my ancestors' memories, holds a high degree of truth, so please don't try it lightly!!!"
