Cluck, Cluck, Cluck

As Ayumi Murakami spoke, Kimura Kazuki noticed that the little ghost on her shoulders was squeaking and stood with arms akimbo as if it was very proud of itself. 

Especially when Kimura Kazuki and Chiba Shiori looked over, the dark red-skinned little ghost was baring its fangs and made a ferocious look. 

Chiba Shiori was a little afraid at first, but she was not scared of it anymore after a while. It was mostly because Kimura Kazuki was beside her that she felt safe. She also noticed that the little ghost seemed like it could not leave Ayumi Murakami's shoulders and was grabbing her tightly no matter what. 

Ayumi Murakami almost tripped on flat ground again as they entered the manga editorial room. Luckily Chiba Shiori was there to catch her before she fell.
