  There is no way I had been talking to a cute girl like this in such a familiar manner…..

「I don’t like the way you are acting like a stranger even though we are living together.」

  Nanana-san said while pouting and looking down. 

「Huh?」

  Time froze for me after listening to her words. 

「Together, that’s like…..cohabitation without marriage?!」

「No, it’s not like that!」

  I was panicking as Nanana-san corrected me.

「No, no. If a young man and a woman living together isn’t cohabitation then what else can it be! 」

「Hm, can I have a moment?」

  It was Tensai-san who had muttered that after listening to our conversation. 

  She stood up and came close to me. I have no idea what she was thinking but she grabbed my right arm and guided me towards Nanana-san. 

  It is said that people see everything in slow motion when they are put into extreme conditions. Well, I was in that situation at the moment. My right palm was moving automatically towards Nanana-san’s breasts. Huh? Is this even possible? Can I really? Thank you very much. 

  Then my right hand, which was expecting a soft sensation, got sucked into Nanana-san’s chest without any resistance. 

「…..Huh?」

  And then it passed right through it, I didn’t feel anything. The way it looks from  a third person’s perspective is that my arm is stuck in Nanana-san’s chest. To be honest, it is extremely creepy. I hurriedly pulled back my hand and stared at my palm. I am sure that I didn’t feel anything. I then looked at Tensai-san. 

「Well…..you know…..what does this mean?」

「What are you confused about? Nanana-dono is an earth bound spirit that possesses room 202 of the Happiness Dorm where you live.」

「E..earth bound spirit?!」

「That’s wrong Tensai-chan. I am living in this room and letting Juugo live here for the moment.」

  Nanana-chan who is supposedly a ghost corrected her but I can’t understand what she is saying at all. 

「And like why are you stating the obvious? …..Oh, so that’s how things are now. Right, Tensai-chan?」

  Nanana-chan noticed something and Tensai-san nodded at her. 

「That’s right, Nanana-dono. This guy really has amnesia.」

  Nanana-san looked at me with awe. I did tell you about it a couple of moments ago. 

 「…B..but why are you dressed like that to begin with?」

「Well, either way…..」

「Yes?」

「What do you think you are doing! Juugo, you pervert!」

  There were no words of comfort directed at a poor man who had lost his memories. Instead, Nanana-san’s slap sank into my cheek making a loud noise. I will say it again, it wasn’t something as soft as being smacked or being pushed back, her slap literally sank into my cheek. If things were in slow motion then you would be able to see my face being distorted in a weird way. I turned three sixty degrees. it wasn’t like it blew me away, I literally rotated in the air. My body got blown up into the air and my body rotated like a cartwheel and got smashed into the wall. 

  I couldn’t understand how I was hit by a ghost that I couldn’t touch but the impact of the hit was so great that such doubts got blown away as my brain shook inside my head. I guess that’s a good thing. 

  Various memories came into my mind at that moment. 

  About me getting half kicked out of the house by my father, that I got exiled to this Nanae Island, that I had to live in a dirt cheap place, that an earth bound ghost called Nanana-chan was possessing it, memories about the geniuses known as GREAT7 and their great feats, and that Nanana-chan was one of them when she was alive. I also remembered Ryuugajo Nanana’s buried treasure. My mind got filled up with the information about the Nanana collection which was a part of the buried treasure which had various mysterious powers. I now remember the self proclaimed supersleuth, Ikkyuu Tensai who was in front of my eyes and her attendant, Hoshino D’arc. I remembered all the adventures I had and my first…..

  I kept recalling memories one after another. 

「Oi, Tensai.」

  I stood up while holding my groggy head and glared at Tensai. 

「What is it, Juugo?」

「Since when did you realize that I had amnesia?」

「Since the beginning.」

  Tensai replied nonchalantly. 

「How did you notice that?」

「Didn’t you say it yourself that you have amnesia, Juugo?」

「You liar, you didn’t believe me at all.」

「It’s true. I believed you but I left you on your own.」

  I see, it did seem like she was leading things in a way that others won’t notice my amnesia. 

「Why did you do that?」

  Tensai smiled boldly at my question. 

「Don’t you even get something as simple as that, Juugo? Then I shall tell you. That’s because I didn’t want to face the penalty, like never! I am going to declare it right here that I am never going to do…..something like that!」

  Her irreverent attitude changed and she became red till the tip of her ear while shouting that, and my memories started becoming clearer. 

「I see, so you used my amnesia and escaped to the safe zone as soon as possible.」

「Yeah, that’s right. You can admit your defeat now.」

「Stop puffing your chest. Also don’t be so nonchalant, you self proclaimed supersleuth. Ah well, you are just as devious as always.」

「Hmph, I don’t want to hear that from someone who tried to win by cheating.」

  I started recalling more after hearing that. About what I did and how I lost my memories because of that. Tensai ignored me while I was pondering and she looked around. 

「I have a suggestion to make now that Juugo’s memories are back safe and sound.」

「Hm? What is it, Tensai-chan?」

  Tensai grinned at Nanana-chan who had inquired. 

「Let’s make the next game our last game.」

  I saw Tensai’s bold grin and realized that this supersleuth Ikkyuu Tensai is going to make a move here to beat the strongest earth bound spirit, Ryuugajou Nanana. The time on the alarm clock said it was 3 a.m. 

  My memories cleared up and I recalled what had happened at the beginning of tonight.

  It was about nine hours ago, it was a Saturday evening. The time on the alarm clock was around six p.m. The place was here where I live, room 202 of the Happiness Dorm. I was laying on my bed, listening to the sound of the television as background music and was reading a mystery novel that I borrowed in the shopping quarter on my way back from my morning lessons. The room of the Happiness Dorm where I am residing has another resident. The other person…..she is a ghost to be exact, is living…..no, possessing my room. Her name is Ryuugajou Nanana-chan, she is a girl that got killed in this room ten years ago. Nanana-chan was busy playing an online game which she has put her entire life into playing. She was sitting on the chair in front of the PC with one of her feet on the chair. She was moving the mouse as if it was a part of her body and was clicking on the keyboard. She was muttering 「Alright!」or 「Tch」to herself from time to time, it seems like she was having fun.(She has been playing for thirty seven hours nonstop at this point.)

  It was around that time that we heard the banging on the door. It wasn’t the sound of the bell but of the door being banged. 

「Open up.」 The voice that was screaming outside was familiar. It was the voice of the Happiness Dorm’s landlady and caretaker, a bad example of an adult, Maboro Shiki-san. To be honest I wanted to ignore her and pretend that I was away but Nanana-chan who was an old acquaintance of Shiki-san told me to open the door so I gave up on that plan. I kept the page number of the mystery novel and stood up. 

「Alright, alright. I’ll open it.」

  I opened the door and saw Shiki-san with a big smile standing across the door in vulnerable attire as always. She was wearing a tank top and shorts. But it wasn’t only Shiki-san who was standing there. 

「….So, why are you guys here, Tensai?」

  Behind Shiki-san were Ikkyuu Tensai, a self proclaimed supersleuth girl with a weird name and Hoshino D’arc, her attendant who is a crossdressing freak. 

「I want to know that too.」

  Looking at her displeased face, it seems like she was dragged here by this landlady against her will.
