Momo takes Vamola through forbidden ruins while trying to get her to school on time. Dandadan makes an ordinary deadline the reason for a dangerous route, with Vamola's first day providing the immediate context. This follows her arrival rather than retelling it, so the previous encounter matters. The opening is a small decision about getting somewhere quickly; the ruins make that convenience a poor guide to what the journey might cost.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
A shortcut creates an obligation that lasts beyond the journey. The protection spell fails, and the slit-mouthed woman survives the girls' escape as a continuing threat. Seiko's response is a restriction on Momo's nights, turning a brief attempt to save time into a longer loss of freedom. The contrast makes the encounter distinctive without requiring the ghost to announce a grand objective. Momo wanted to solve a school problem efficiently and acquired a problem that follows her home. The following book's pursuit by Reiko Kashima makes this encounter important to the sequence rather than a disposable obstacle on the walk to school.
