My Iyashikei Game Chapter 363: Jin Sheng, Lai Sheng, Wang Sheng

The coloring book fell open, the simple color paintings described the boy’s pure thoughts and wishes. The boy painted many things about family like his parents cooking, gardening, and cleaning the house together. The lines were simple and the paintings were cute, there was warmth from them… or at least they did look that way at first glance.

“Is your name Lai Sheng?” Han Fei picked up the coloring book. He tried to make himself as calm as possible, ignoring the gaze coming from behind him. Han Fei had no idea how long the boy’s parents had been watching. Han Fei was thankful that he watched his words and didn’t do anything to harm the boy.

“That was my nickname but after daddy left, mommy rarely calls me by my nickname anymore.” The boy said in a tone that tried to make him sound older than he was. But the fact that he had just peed his pants just made the whole attempt too cute.

“So Lai Sheng is really your name…” Han Fei picked up the coloring book and then glanced at the black and white portrait which he had placed back on the top shelf of the dresser. The portrait and rice bowl were placed at a location where the boy couldn’t reach. So with the boy’s height, he could only see his father’s picture but couldn’t see what was inside the bowl.

Han Fei picked up the death portrait as an idea popped up in his mind. He turned the portrait around and realized there was a colored picture on the back of the black and white portrait. In the picture, the boy was smiling happily as he sat on the swing. Perhaps it was the wind or there was someone outside the frame, the swing swung high into the sky.

“I knew it.” Han Fei finally understood why the mother put the death portrait at a location where the boy couldn’t reach. The target of the soul summoning ritual was not the father but this boy. The boy’s picture was hidden behind the father’s portrait and the paper with the boy’s name was buried inside the rice bowl. The situation at Room 4064 was similar to Zhuang Ren’s family in Room 4144, it was the dead summoning the living.
