The Razor-faced Man
Yuki Shiomi

It is said that a woman's future husband will be reflected in the water of a washbowl if she holds a razor in her mouth at 12:00 midnight.

One girl heard this story and decided to try it. The girl put a razor in her mouth at midnight and looked into the water of a washbowl. The next moment, she saw the reflection of a man. The girl was surprised and said, "Oh!" The razor fell out of her mouth and into the water. The water seemed to turn red, then went back to clear.

Ten years later, the girl met a man. They fell in love at first sight and later got married. But the man always hid the left side of his face behind his hair. The girl said to him one day, "Show me your whole face!" The man told her that his face had been damaged by someone with a razor a long time ago.

"How horrible! Who was it?" she asked.
"It was you!" he said.
