Later that evening, Watanuki unexpectedly drops in on Doumeki's storeroom with food he made which he insists are simply leftovers. Doumeki is irreverent, causing Watanuki to flare up. When Doumeki tells Watanuki to go home due to the late hour and to the increased risk of encountering ghosts, Watanuki insists on staying and helping Doumeki with his research. Through an accident on Watanuki's part, Doumeki finds a hidden book written by his grandfather. Doumeki finds a spell for getting back an eye stolen by a spider, but before he can read it fully, Himawari’s book comes alive. The kanji on the page form a snake-like creature, which jumps onto Doumeki's grandfather's book and starts to consume the writing. Watanuki stops Doumeki from confronting the creature, just as Yuuko suddenly appears in the storeroom. Yuuko feeds the four mystic wards protecting the storeroom to the creature which is then bound up in a ball of string. Yuuko warns Watanuki that he must get his sight back soon. On the way home from school, the Karatsu-tengu of Ame-warashi ask him to take them to Yuuko’s to seek her in help in freeing Zashiki-warashi. She agrees and sends Watanuki and the pipe fox with them to free her. (Source: Wikipedia)
