Chapter 158 - Chapter 158: Could the Diary Have Been Sent to an Alien?

The most nervous person during this Golden Week holiday was actually Takanashi Rikka.

To be precise, ever since she learned that an uncle of her family might pass away due to a plane crash, she had been very nervous about anything related to airplanes.

Regarding this matter, Shinomiya Kaguya had actually already helped out. She had directly used the Shinomiya family's money power to buy Takanashi Shingo's company, and by the way, had adjusted his job.

He had originally been engaged in foreign trade, purchasing rare earths, and thus often needed to travel abroad for business trips.

And Shinomiya Kaguya had directly promoted him by one level to management, so he no longer needed to go abroad so frequently.

Of course, Shinomiya Kaguya would not do a losing business.

After her confirmation during this period, the characters from those anime, even the supporting characters, were generally much more capable than ordinary people.

It was just that because of the influence of the so-called "plot," most of them did not seem to have any particularly outstanding points.

Just like B-Komachi, where Hoshino Ai was.

In Shinomiya Kaguya's eyes, even excluding Hoshino Ai, this absolute C-position, the level of the other members of the group was also above standard.

Logically speaking, with Hoshino Ai, a beautiful girl who was born to be an idol in the settings, she could conquer a bunch of fans with just her face.

The result was that Hoshino Ai had been debuting for four years now, and B-Komachi was still a lukewarm indie idol group.

And according to the mysterious person, she had only started to become truly popular after "giving birth to children" and having comprehended how to perform the emotion of "love."

Even so, B-Komachi had still spent another four years before Hoshino Ai, at the age of 20, had finally stepped onto the stage of the Tokyo Dome.

Of course, ever since they had obtained the diary, the original plot should no longer be able to bind them.

At least on Shinomiya Kaguya's side, she had only provided some small resources for this "kouhai" of hers, and in just half a month, B-Komachi's popularity had already increased several times over.

And it was precisely because she had seen the returns from her investment that Shinomiya Kaguya was thinking of gathering more valuable supporting characters under her name.

Takanashi Shingo's side was naturally also considered an investment.

It was just that she hadn't expected that after his promotion, Takanashi Shingo would actually plan to take his wife and his three daughters on a family trip for a few days during the Golden Week holiday.

Originally, his lineage could still leave three daughters behind. Now, if something really happened, then his lineage would be completely cut off.

Takanashi Rikka had originally held a fluke mentality, feeling that since her uncle's destiny had already changed, it shouldn't be this time.

The result was that she had refreshed such a commission.

She had to stop the Takanashi Shingo family from boarding the plane by herself.

And there was an additional restriction in the commission, which was that she could not borrow the power of other diary holders, otherwise, it would be directly judged as a commission failure.

And so she had first mentioned this matter in the group, and then had forcibly dragged her own sister to Tokyo for this holiday to ensure that nothing would happen to him during this holiday.

If she really couldn't stop it, then she could only wait for Shinomiya Kaguya to make a move.

After all, the penalty for a failed commission was better than her uncle's family losing their lives.

Miyauchi Hikage's side had not continued to keep an eye on this matter.

With Shinomiya Kaguya around, as long as no supernatural powers intervened, that plane probably wouldn't have any major problems.

He now just wanted to go back to his own base camp to relax for a few days, and by the way, see if there had been any changes on Asahigaoka's side after being away for a month.

After instructing Jerry and Shiina Mashiro on how to deal with various situations, Miyauchi Hikage then had Itou Kaiji act as his driver and returned to Asahigaoka with them.

After all, this guy, Itou Kaiji, really needed to be watched more closely. If he didn't care about him, his entire Golden Week holiday would probably be spent either playing pachinko or giving money to those women at nightclubs.

It was better to let him continue to go to Asahigaoka's side to film some cringey videos these few days.

However, Itou Kaiji, who had not touched a steering wheel more than a few times since graduating from driving school, his driving speed was really not something to be complimented.

Fortunately, they still managed to return to Asahigaoka before it got completely dark.

A month later, at the entrance of his own home, he saw his younger sister again. Miyauchi Hikage looked at Miyauchi Renge, who, after seeing his figure, had directly dashed towards him. He also picked her up in one go, and at the same time, sighed in his heart that the little sister he had raised with his own hands was indeed different.

He asked her how she felt about school while also sensing the ripple in his sister's body.

It was not too different from what he had imagined. Renge was still young, and her physical condition made her progress in Hamon only so-so.

And she did not have the ability of the girls with diaries to use Reading Value to add points. It was estimated that even if she practiced until she was an adult, it would be very difficult for her to use the ripple in her body to fight.

However, Miyauchi Hikage had originally only wanted his little sister to grow up a little healthier and had not considered letting her come into contact with those dangerous things.

Besides, even though Renge's current practice situation was only average, at least she already had the seed of the ripple in her body.

Compared to her half-hearted sister, she was already quite good.

He glanced at Miyauchi Hikari. This girl, after getting out of the car, had been muttering "food, food" and had run into the house, even forgetting to take her own luggage.

And then, listening to Miyauchi Renge in his arms telling him about things at school, and constantly complaining about how her eldest sister was always sleeping in class, and usually just let everyone study on their own with the teaching plans he had sorted out back then.

Alright, the first two daughters of the Miyauchi family were indeed not very reliable.

In comparison, this little sister of his, who had just started elementary school, was indeed more worry-free.

Holding Renge in one hand and his luggage in the other, he walked into the house with Itou Kaiji.

His parents' progress in practicing Hamon seemed to be quite good.

After all, they were country folk. Even though the Miyauchi family itself was a small landowner, and now, under his leadership, had become the family with the most say in Asahigaoka, in the end, they were still down-to-earth people and would still go down to the fields to work together.

And when they were working, maintaining the breathing rhythm of the ripple was obviously much easier than working normally.

Under these circumstances, looking at the seemingly reduced wrinkles on his parents' faces, Miyauchi Hikage was very gratified.

As for his eldest sister...

One could only say that Miyauchi Hikage's decision back then was correct.

He didn't have to worry about this sleepyhead of an older sister at all. As long as he let her get used to the rhythm of ripple breathing while she was sleeping, he didn't even have to tell her about ripple breathing, and she could master the power of the ripple on her own in her sleep.

Now it seemed that even though the guiding ripple he had left in her body had already dissipated, a new ripple had already been born in her own body to automatically guide her breathing.

From this point of view, although the intensity of his eldest sister's ripple was far inferior to those girls with diaries, in terms of realm, probably only the equally pure-minded Shiina Mashiro could compare with her.

And after a simple dinner, while casually chatting about the things that had happened this month, Miyauchi Kazuho, who was originally planning to go back to her room to continue sleeping, seemed to have remembered something and turned her head to look at her younger brother.

"Oh right, since you're back, Hikage, then this year's Asahigaoka spring outing will be left to you to handle!"

After saying this, Miyauchi Kazuho directly waved her hand at him, not giving him any time to speak, and left the living room.

Miyauchi Hikage's mouth twitched.

Originally, the Asahigaoka branch school didn't have any outing activities, but ever since he had thought it was boring in elementary school and had spontaneously organized an outing activity according to the spring outings of his past life, the outing around Golden Week every year had become a tradition.

But he had already graduated from the Asahigaiga branch school now. Even if his eldest sister, who was a teacher at the school, didn't want to worry about this kind of thing, couldn't she just leave it to Koshigaya Suguru, who was still studying in Asahigaoka?

But looking at his little sister's expectant appearance, Miyauchi Hikage could only nod and agree.

After all, he had never really gone on an outing with Renge.

However, his father suddenly seemed to have thought of something and reminded him.

"Speaking of the outing, do you still remember that time seven or eight years ago, when you guys ran to the neighboring Chichibu City during your outing and saved a drowning little girl?"

Honma Meiko, of course I still remember her.

After all, this was him personally saving the life of an anime character he had liked very much in his past life. In addition, the other party had now become one of the first batch of girls to get the diary, and would from time to time talk in the group about wanting to come and thank him in person. It would be strange if he could forget this kind of thing.

Regarding the matter of her coming over, Miyauchi Hikage was naturally prepared for it long ago.

Anyway, as long as he didn't reveal his identity as the mysterious person, there was nothing else to pay attention to.

At that time, he would just take her around and see the scenery of Asahigaoka.

After all, her body had not yet fully recovered from the drowning incident that year.

It was just that sometimes he would also feel strange. At that time, she hadn't actually been drowning for too long before they had rescued her.

Even if the drowning really had some impact on her body, it shouldn't have made her body become so weak.

Anyway, I'll talk about it after I meet her in person.

Muttering this in his heart, after chatting with his family about the recent situation, and helping Itou Kaiji sort out a room and letting him rest well, Miyauchi Hikage then returned to his own room, planning to write today's diary.

After his research these past few days, he had discovered that he could actually still maintain the speed of one diary entry per day. As long as he met the word count requirement, even if one of the diaries was not updated, he could still get the same reward.

However, in that case, there would be no loss on his side, but the side that had not updated the diary would naturally not be able to get the daily Reading Value reward.

Thinking of the feeling of being nagged over a thousand times from the evening until the next day by those girls who lived around Tokyo on the day he had stopped updating, Miyauchi Hikage felt that he should probably write a little for both sides.

At the very least, when he didn't want to write on one side, he could also leave a sentence or two to give those girls a qualification to get Reading Value.

Just like those girls who had obtained the second batch of diaries, apart from Miwa Kasumi, this girl who had been exposed in front of him from the very beginning, Miyauchi Hikage had not sensed the situation of any other girls since then. He didn't know who the second batch of diaries had been distributed to.

"Anyway, I'll write a little less on the second batch's side. I'll talk about it after more girls' information is exposed." Miyauchi Hikage first casually wrote some non-nutritious fabricated information in the second batch's diary, and then continued to break the news to these old viewers in the first batch's diary.

[Today is the first day of the Golden Week holiday. Originally, if I hadn't obtained the diary, I should have taken a good rest today and had a holiday.

However, ever since I got the diary and resigned, it's been like a holiday every day, to the extent that I don't feel anything about the arrival of Golden Week anymore.

I've been running around Japan recently, searching for information on those aliens and those ancient youkai.

Didn't I mention it to you all before? In this world, besides those youkai and vengeful spirits, there may also be some aliens who have ill intentions towards Earth.

Upon learning that there were aliens in this world, I hurriedly searched all over Japan. After all, although this world had the old Showa-era Ultraman series, the Tsuburaya of this world seemed to have completely gone bankrupt after a certain Ultraman 80, and no new Ultraman stories have appeared since.

It made me quite nervous.

After all, in my world, Tsuburaya had made a comeback relying on those Ultramen of the Heisei era.

And as the big brother of the Heisei era, Ultraman Tiga was also a work that had influenced a generation.

More importantly, in the worldview of Tiga, there were also the film and television works of those Showa Ultramen. The name Ultraman Tiga was also inspired by Ultraman.

It's a pity that I don't know if the time hasn't come or if this world really doesn't have it. In any case, I haven't found any ruins related to Ultraman yet. It seems I won't be able to become light in this world for the time being.

But that's also good. After all, if this world really had Ultraman, then the crises this world would face in the future would not be a small matter.

And at present, according to my investigation, most of those aliens who have come to Earth are relatively low-key.

After all, there are still many powerful supernatural beings on Earth. Even youkai and vengeful spirits can be considered enemies of those aliens. With the revival of the supernatural, those aliens cannot possibly be rampant on Earth. At most, they will just secretly capture a few people to study.

Speaking of which, I still haven't found a few of the girls who got the second batch of diaries. Could it be that some diaries were sent to those aliens or some youkai?

Anyway, I'll continue to investigate for a while according to a few works related to aliens in my memory. If there's any good news, I'll let you all know.]
