Do Witches Have to Go to High School Too?

Rumors are swirling at Jincheng High School. Someone claims to have seen a student jump to her death from the secluded art building. The story has changed several times, and busybodies have speculated about the cause, embellishing it as they go: the deceased was heartbroken over love, bullied, failing at school, or had her scholarship stolen

Then someone else says she was murdered.

.

The transfer student Ji Zhishui is withdrawn and gloomy, with an intensely strange manner. Her dark hair and pale face make her look like a doll from the last century, and she seems to radiate a gloomy resentment.

“Someone says you're her ghost.”

“She died at Jincheng High, and then you showed up to take her place and get revenge on everyone!”

“And... you do seem very interested in her.”

Ji Zhishui scoffs at the theory.

“Revenge? With my stamina? I take four minutes to run 800 meters.”

Her deskmate falls into thought.

Ji Zhishui meets a strange person.

Gu Tianqing, class president of Senior Three Class A, was born to be the center of attention. He has the warm, bright enthusiasm of midsummer in July and a beautiful face no one can forget. Both students and teachers praise him without end.

In short, he's a handsome, good person.

But...

“Has anyone ever told you that your smile looks fake?”

“Even if it is,” Gu Tianqing says, “I haven't done anything wrong. Why do you hate me?”

Even money doesn't dare to demand that everyone like it, yet Gu Tianqing dares. Ji Zhishui laughs to herself.

Coming soon: The Person Secretly Living in My House

Xu Zhimian first realizes something is wrong

because the handle of her toothbrush cup is at a different angle than usual.

The clothes she forgot to put away have appeared in the closet,

and expired instant noodles are lying in the trash.

At last,

a little marble that had rolled under the sofa is shining brightly on the bedside table.

Xu Zhimian can no longer pretend she hasn't noticed,

so she installs security cameras at home.

When she watches the footage for the first time,

the creepy pervert she expected to see isn't there.

Instead, a little sheep-shaped cleaning cloth is draped over a dusty crystal ornament.

Oh, so the house is haunted.

Xu Zhimian finally understands.

.

The girl who had always acted as if he didn't exist seems to be able to see him now.

This leaves Tan Mingjue quite troubled.

“I'm going to be late. Where are my keys?”

Xu Zhimian is dashing about again.

Tan Mingjue floats over to the entryway and, from a meter away, politely and cautiously slips the little sheep keychain she'd left in the dining room into Xu Zhimian's bag.

Xu Zhimian's face turns faintly red.

Tan Mingjue ponders.

She really does seem to be able to see him now.

Will she drive this poor homeless ghost away?

He's worked hard to take care of this home for so many years. Even if he hasn't earned the credit, he deserves some recognition.

·

“Since you couldn't see me back then,” Tan Mingjue asks, “why did you blush when I brought you your keys?”

“Because I couldn't see you, that's why it was so incredibly hot,” Xu Zhimian answers matter-of-factly.
