Chapter 6 The conclusion

Brago woke up. "Maybe I did see the ghost of Zofis!" he said. "Maybe I did see the three spirits. I should change." He got out of bed, got dressed and walked to the door. Kanchome was asking for donations. "Hey, Kanchome!"

"Yes?" Kanchome said.

"Are you still asking for donations?" Brago said. He took out a handful of coins. Kanchome nodded. "Well, I'm donating this to the poor!" He put the handful in the pot Kanchome held.

"Thank you, Mr. Brago!" Kanchome said. He walked off.

Brago walked outside. Penny and Reycom were ready to close up shop. The two of them sold fish together. "How much for yellowtail?" Brago said.

"About 250 yen!" Reycom said. He looked up. "Mr. Brago, I thought you only shopped at Victoream's store! They sell gator there."

"I'm buying this yellowtail for a special occasion," Brago said. "How much is the biggest one ya got?"

"It's about 350 yen!" Penny said. "Here ya go!" Penny handed Brago a fish. "It's still alive!" Brago handed Penny the money.

"Now to go to the Bell House!" Brago said, the fish still in his possession. He walked toward the village.

"Another miserable Christmas!" Emma Bell whined. "Our Christmas Yellowtail is so sickly-looking!"

"We can't afford Kido's prescriptions!" Kolulu whined. "The apothecary seems to raise their prices every day!"

There was a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" Zatch said. He gasped. "Mr. Brago!"

"I heard you were complaining about your yellowtail," Brago said. He handed the fish to Zatch. "I bought you a replacement."

Zatch's mouth watered at the sight of the fish. "Fishy goodness!" Zatch said. "Let's cook it!"

"One more thing, I'll pay for Kido's prescriptions," Brago said. "It's the least I could do to help you guys get by. Plus Zatch, I'm tripling your salary."

"Tripling?" Zatch gasped.

"Yep, plus vacations on major holidays," Brago said.

"Thank you, Mr. Brago!" Zatch cried with glee.

Zofis, Yopopo, Danny and Zeno stood outside the Bell House window. No one could see them, because they were ghosts. "So he finally changed," Zofis sighed.

"I bet my brother's family's gonna be happier!" Zeno said."Much happier."

"Hundreds of poor starving children will be fed!" Danny said.

"Yo-po-poi!" Yopopo cheered. Translation- Yay!
