HSHK Chapter 4

Table-turning (こっくりさん) is the fourth chapter of the spin-off After-School Boy Hanako-kun.

Summary
Akane proposes to play "Kokkuri-san" (similar to a table-turning seance) with Aoi, Nene, and Lemon. Though Akane is uninterested in the occult, Aoi showed interest in "Kokkuri-san" half a year ago, so Akane has been making preparations to summon the best low-level spirit possible, using highest-quality calligraphy paper and ink with his blood mixed in. They begin the ritual while Nene worries whether a ferocious spirit might come. Suddenly, a burst of wind heralds the appearance of a spirit… which turns out to be a Mokke. Nene is relieved, but wonders what kind of answers the Mokke will give. Lemon stars by asking about tomorrow's weather. The Mokke moves the 10-yen coin to spell "a-me", which Nene realises means "sweets" (飴) but the rest interpret as "rain" (雨).

Akane then asks the real question: who is the person that he likes? The Mokke starts with "a" again, but then sneezes, causing the coin to bounce and spell "re-mo-n" or Lemon. Akane frantically denies liking Lemon, beating him up with his bat, while Aoi wishes them happiness as she leaves.

Meanwhile, the Mokke escapes with a bottle of ink (presumably the one with Akane's blood mixed in).
