Sutochiru ch9

p1

What's with the serious gaze?

Hmm~

I'm not seeing anything.

My pose sure is getting around.
As it should be.

Hey, search properly, you two.

p2

We're not gonna have anywhere to live at this rate!

Are they gonna find anything searching like that?

p3

That so?

That so?
You forgot, didn't you!?

The building where Net Café Mameshiba resides is getting repaired and we have to leave.

Mameshiba-san told us that, didn't she?

She says to evacuate... from home!?
But the party has lost their home!?

[tn: see chapter 5]

p4

Huh~? Did she say something like that?
Did she?
Stop pretending to forget inconvenient things!

We might end up getting separated,
so we need to search for a new home properly.

p5

Huh~? Didn't Stella forget about it for a while too?
Didn't she?
Shut up!!

Forgetting things together is what we do! Now let's get searching!
Huh~?
Huh~?

Ah.

p6

Look at this, Senpai!
Hm?
What!? Did you find a good place!?

Take this pose

and do this!

And it becomes a reversed version. I just noticed.

p7

That's amazing, Ozaki.
Ehehe ehehe.
...

Ah!

Vertical!

You can do it...
vertically too...!!
Fufufu

That's my Senpai...
Hey, you guys! Search properly!

!

p8

A message from Mameshiba-san!

The shop will be closed while the building is under repairs, but...

I'm thinking about relocating if possible,
so I'd like you to look for a good tenant to become the new location.
If you manage to find somewhere good,

then just like before,
I won't mind you using the new location as your home.

p9

Oooooh!

Thanks, Mameshiba-san~
She's no mame anymore.
She's Shibainu!

Shibainu!
Shibainu!

Okay, let's put more effort into our search!
There's no need for that, Stella.

We've already found a tenant.

p10

Eh? That's my Senpai!
When did you pull that off?

By searching in "vertical" mode,
I can find buildings.
Enough of that already.

What building are you talking about!?

Yes.
The card granny's building room.
It's huge~

She can just rent out Matsuo Yuki-san's vacant building.

p11

Ah!
Clutzarina!

It's a "haunted" build, so she should be able to rent it for cheap. That's sure to make Shibuinu-san wag her tail.

Hold on a second.

That building... still has a psychic phenomenon problem, doesn't it?
Meh, it should be fine since she can rent it for cheap.
Should be fine!? Look, you!

There's no way I can live somewhere that's haunted by a ghost!
Absolutely no way!!
For now, let's try calling her.

p12

Ah.

She's not in my call history.
Nice!

What now? I didn't see a "Looking for tenants, please call this number" sign on the building either.

Looking for Tenants

How about checking the bulletin board where we found that poster?
Don't go saying unnecessary things, Ozaki. Let's just give up.
Okay, let's check it out.
Eh~
Please don't be there. Please don't be there...

p13

Taitou Ward Bulleting Board

The poster isn't there.
It sure isn't.

I remember now. You're the one who took it, Cham!

p14

Why'd she place it behind this other poster so it'd be so hard to find?

p15

Wasn't it cos she only wanted amazing people like Chamcham-senpai to find it?

True, I am amazing.
Speak for yourself.

But I don't think Clutzarina would think that far ahead.
You have a point.

And her phone number wouldn't disappear from my call history that quickly.

...? What are you getting at?

p16

Maybe ghosts are things that can both be seen and not seen.

Uwah... You've got that look you get when you have a stupid idea again...

For example, we just so happened to see a "ghost poster" that was placed here by a ghost.

p17

To someone who can't see ghost posters, it'd just look like an empty spot, so they'd put another poster on top of it.

Taitou Ward
Pigeon

Ah! This spot's open!
That's why it looked like it was put on top of it to us.

No, no! Look, you! You're making it sound like Clutzarina is...

That "ghost trading card" disappeared in a flash too!

That's just cos the trash pickup happened to come by!

There was also that construction worker when Yuki-san almost fell into that hole.

His warning was oddly timed, as if he didn't see Yuki-san, who was walking ahead of us.
Please be careful.

p18

Stop saying such messed up stuff!

It was just some guy with bad manners who put their poster on top of that one!
That's not very interesting.
Don't throw in ghosts just to make things interesting!

Senpai!!
Gyah!
What gives, Ozaki!? Don't yell like that!

There's something... I've been curious about.

Senpai solved the mystery behind the building's tremoring,
No, she didn't!
but do you remember what Clutzarina said when we first spoke to her?

p19

...What did she say?

"Whenever a customer would come looking to buy that room, the building would shake
and a woman's scream would be heard."
That's what she said.

p20

We never did solve the mystery of the voice, did we?
Yeah! That must've been Yuki-san's voice.
Cake is delicious<3

The true nature of the psychic phenomenon
is Matsuo Yuki-san herself!

p21

I refuse... I refuse to accept this...

I mean, it'd make no sense to call us to solve a psychic phenomenon that she herself caused, right?
You're turning into a ghost yourself, Stella.
Hah~ Hah~

Hmm, maybe it's that thing where she's not aware that she had become a ghost?
What kind of meddlesome ghost is that...?

I refuse to accept it! I mean, we had a normal conversation with her and everything!
...
There's no way we can just call it at that!

Senpai... Can we save Yuki-chan?

Why would you say that!?
Where are we going with this!?

p22

I've sometimes wondered if I was a ghost myself.
I lost my memories, I didn't know who anyone was and nobody knew who I was.
It's because Senpai found me that I was saved by her.

Maybe Yuki-chan needs us to save her too.

The Ozaki of light...

p23

Okay, let's save her.
Just like that!?

How are we supposed to save her exactly!?
Send her to Heaven I guess?
Your half-assedness never fails to astound me!

But don't worry! I'm sure everything will work out fine!

We save Yuki-san and send her to Heaven.
And then what happens?
The psychic phenomenon in that building will stop!

p24

And then that place will become Mameshiba-san's new location
and our new home!

p25

Perfect.

Yay~

This is messed up...

p26

Fine... I'll do it.

If Clutzarina is a ghost, we'll get our home.
If not, then I win!
Either one good for me!!

So, what are we supposed to do!?

The problem is meeting up with Yuki-san again!
She's something that can and cannot be seen, after all.
Fufufu...

Should we go to the building and say "Yuki-chan~ If you don't come out, we're gonna buy this building~" or something?
Sounds good. That'll make the building tremor.
Are you even trying to save her?

p27

For now, let's head to the building.
Argh geez. Just when I thought I'd never have to go there again...

Ah, it's the little exorcists!
!

p28-29

Hey there~

p30

There she is!!
Wait right there!!

Is Chamcham's reasoning correct...? And how much of it!?
