Although it was Sunday the next day, Miyauchi Hikage still woke up early.
After all, he had made an appointment with Koshigaya Suguru a few days ago, and the other party was coming today to deliver some furniture models that Jerry could use.
He tidied up the mansion and moved the things that couldn't be seen by others into the basement.
As for Jerry?
Miyauchi Hikage thoughtfully gave him a day off, prepared a mobile phone and a large pile of snacks for him, and let him surf the internet in the basement to pass the time. He hoped this little mouse wouldn't pick up the ways of an internet troll, otherwise, a large number of people on the internet would probably have their defenses broken by a mouse today.
At about eleven o'clock, Koshigaya Suguru arrived with a large pile of things in the village car.
Although the matter of Miyauchi Hikage having a mansion in Tokyo had not been widely spread in Asahigaoka village, his capable assistants who had worked with him for several years, like Koshigaya Suguru and Kagayama Kaede, still knew about it.
However, even though he had known for a long time, upon seeing the unimaginably luxurious mansion before him, the usually deadpan Koshigaya Suguru couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
After all, he was one of the people who knew best how much money Miyauchi Hikage had earned by making videos. That money shouldn't have been enough to buy such a mansion in the center of Tokyo, right?
But he did not feel suspicious. Instead, he began to headcanon the reasons for Miyauchi Hikage.
In the end, he came to a conclusion: no wonder Big Brother Miyauchi Hikage had so unhesitatingly handed over the affairs of Asahigaoka to them. Now it seemed that Big Brother Miyauchi Hikage must have also made a name for himself in other unknown fields!
Instantly, the way Koshigaya Suguru looked at Miyauchi Hikage became even more respectful.
He remembered that Miyauchi Hikage would occasionally say some flamboyant things in front of him. One of those sentences seemed to be very fitting.
My Big Brother Miyauchi has the makings of a great emperor!
Miyauchi Hikage could tell from Koshigaya Suguru's gaze that this guy was definitely overthinking it again, but this also made it convenient for him not to have to spend more time explaining.
He enthusiastically welcomed Koshigaya Suguru into the mansion for a tour. During lunch, the two of them talked a lot about the recent projects in Asahigaoka.
There was nothing much to say about the videos. A few years' time was enough for the people of Asahigaoka to figure out some of their own tricks. As long as it didn't involve sensitive topics, Miyauchi Hikage had long since stopped managing these things.
What Koshigaya Suguru was talking to him about were some projects with larger investments, such as a TV drama.
Before obtaining the diary, Miyauchi Hikage had written a script for The Hero Yoshihiko. This work had considerable popularity on the internet in his past life and had even created a number of memes that broke out of their niche.
As for the filming costs?
Most of the scenes were in the desolate wilderness. The expenses on the props and special effects teams were frighteningly low. The entire TV series wouldn't cost much to film.
Even if it failed, it wouldn't have much of an impact on Asahigaoka. But as long as it succeeded, the benefits obtained would far exceed the present. Therefore, in the plans Miyauchi Hikage had made before, this plan was ranked high.
Now, Kagayama Kaede and Koshigaya Suguru had already begun the preliminary preparations. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before they could see the finished product.
When they were talking about the props for the crew, Miyauchi Hikage suddenly thought of his next-door neighbor, Dr. Agasa.
Although he lived right next to him, Miyauchi Hikage had not encountered any murder cases so far. He thought that the repelling effect of his Pure-Yang Body on those vengeful spirits should have also played a certain role.
At most, this week, he had run into Conan, who was also coming home from school to visit Dr. Agasa's house.
But the other party seemed to be afraid that he would drag him to film cringey rustic videos, so he just hurriedly said hello and left, with no intention of having a deep conversation at all.
Of course, to be able to maintain such a relationship with Conan, Miyauchi Hikage was still very happy.
In any case, after lunch, Miyauchi Hikage, without a second thought, prepared another portion of food and then dragged Koshigaya Suguru over to visit Dr. Agasa on the grounds that he had prepared an extra portion of food at home.
If Koshigaya Suguru, whose hands-on ability was practically a bug, could create some sparks with the black-tech master Dr. Agasa, then this kid's future would be truly limitless.
Facts proved that the way of communication between engineering men was very simple. With the help of the delicious food, Dr. Agasa, who had been busy in his laboratory all morning, greeted Miyauchi Hikage with a much more intimate attitude.
And Koshigaya Suguru's request to take a look at the laboratory was also happily agreed to by Dr. Agasa.
After that, seeing the inventions and creations that Dr. Agasa had in his laboratory, Koshigaya Suguru, just by asking a few questions, made Dr. Agasa look at him in a new light.
Upon learning that Koshigaya Suguru was now only a third-year middle school student and was already serving as a person-in-charge in Asahigaoka, Dr. Agasa also repeatedly praised him.
And being a helpful person himself, after asking Koshigaya Suguru some engineering-related questions and confirming his current level, he even took the initiative to exchange contact information with him, saying that if he had any problems in the future, he could come and ask him directly.
Although this "teacher-student" relationship was not yet consolidated at the moment, with Miyauchi Hikage around, as long as he remembered to come over and brush up on his favorability with Dr. Agasa, and as long as Koshigaya Suguru didn't slack off, this teacher-student relationship would be formally established sooner or later.
In the end, when they left Dr. Agasa's house, several people were very satisfied with today's visit.
Koshigaya Suguru had gotten a good teacher, Dr. Agasa had gotten a good apprentice, and Miyauchi Hikage had raised the favorability of both. This round was a huge win.
After sending off Koshigaya Suguru in the evening, and pulling out Jerry, who was frantically tapping on his phone screen, probably in a flame war with someone, from the basement to try out his exclusive furniture, Miyauchi Hikage finally opened his diary, preparing to start today's entry.
He had learned so many secrets yesterday. Although in his senses, among the people who had mentioned his name today, there shouldn't have been any Jujutsu Sorcerers or messy people. It should be that the Jujutsu Headquarters or other forces' exorcists had not yet noticed the changes in Beika Town.
He didn't know what kind of positioning Beika Town had in the eyes of those forces.
But to be prepared for a rainy day, he should first make some preparations in his diary, lest his Pure-Yang Body be exposed, and those girls who hold the diary suspect him.
[How was the first offline meetup yesterday, everyone? I hope you all had fun.
After all, I only took a peek. If I hadn't found Bocchi-chan peeking in secret, I wouldn't have planned to show up. After all, you all were so on guard against me, it really broke my heart.
So after seeing you meet up with Bocchi-chan, I went to do other things and didn't pay attention to what happened later in your gathering.
But it looks like you all had a pretty good time.
After all, before going to bed last night, I happened to see on my video feed that the Guitar Hero's account had posted a status update saying "Had the first offline meetup with new friends today, had a lot of fun."
However, don't get too carried away, Bocchi-chan. Although you've been disguising yourself as a normie on your Guitar Hero account, you're still a long way from becoming a real normie. We'll talk again when you dare to show your face in a live stream.
Also, I secretly slipped into your group last night for a look and found that Yotsuya Miko is already in the group. It seems you really are a diary holder, Miko-san.
I just don't know why you didn't join the group before and never posted any requests for help online.
Could it be that you treated the diary as something unclean before, and that's why you didn't dare to open it?
Thinking about it that way seems quite possible.
But no matter the reason, you should be able to confirm now that this diary poses no threat to you.
Then I'll tell you a little more about your situation, as a reminder for you whose life is not easy.
For those vengeful spirits with obvious forms, you should already have a certain degree of resistance now and won't be easily scared by them.
However, those vengeful spirits and evil ghosts do not necessarily all have ferocious forms. Some of the smarter ones will sometimes even deliberately disguise themselves as ordinary people.
Like a plain-looking little boy, holding an adult's hand on one side and a hot air balloon on the other, who greets you cheerfully after seeing you.
As long as you respond, they will instantly reveal their true form and launch an attack on you. So you'd better be a little careful about this, lest you capsize in a ditch.
Secondly, I don't know if you've been to a person called the "Godly Mother of Shitamachi" to buy prayer beads. Although that Godly Mother seems like a fraud, she still has some skill. At least she is much more experienced than you, and in the future, she has even risked her life to save you several times. She can be considered a trustworthy person.
You can go to her to further understand the existence of those vengeful spirits and evil ghosts and accumulate some experience.
Of course, if you find other supernatural forces, it's best to be a little careful. After all, you don't have the prescient ability like me to distinguish the good from the bad of those forces.
But to be honest, I'm not sure if those other forces can solve your problem, Miko-san.
According to the performance in the work, you suddenly awakened the highest level of Yin-Yang Eyes but did not have spiritual power, nor could you control your Yin-Yang Eyes.
Actually, what you really need is a tool like the Mystic Eye Killers that can suppress the Yin-Yang Eyes. But ordinary people can't make this kind of thing, and you probably won't be able to meet the master who can.
I'll just mention it in passing.
If you can find the Garan no Dou, you might be able to buy a pair of Mystic Eye Killers from the owner there at a certain cost.
However, her level is too high, and she might even be wanted and hunted by some supernatural force in the hidden world right now.
If you really want to find her, it's best to be a little more low-key, lest you be casually crushed like a bug by her.
Of course, Hamon should also be able to alleviate your problem.
It can increase your life energy, making those weak vengeful spirits not dare to approach you.
However, before the intensity of your life energy undergoes a qualitative change, it cannot have any effect on those powerful vengeful spirits.
In fact, some powerful vengeful spirits will even specifically stay by the side of those with strong life energy, using the life energy on them to roast those weak vengeful spirits and make themselves a meal of vengeful spirit barbecue.
That friend of yours with naturally strong life energy will encounter such a crisis in the story in the future. I don't know if you have experienced it yet.
And Hamon is a work of slow, patient effort. Even if you have a cheat, it will be difficult to achieve great success without one or two years of work.
Even if you achieve great success, you still need to research the most suitable ripple combat style for your own situation. This aspect depends more on talent.
However, I thought about it again carefully, and I really did think of the breathing styles passed down through generations by the Demon Slayer Corps from Demon Slayer.
In a sense, the author of that work should have been inspired by the Hamon in JoJo to create a power like breathing styles in his own manga. It can be said to be a tribute to his predecessor.
Regarding that kind of breathing style, although the story of Demon Slayer should have ended in the last century, I investigated it in the first few years after I transmigrated, and through some unofficial histories, I can deduce that this kind of breathing style most likely exists in this world.
However, there are still many differences between breathing styles and Hamon.
Unlike Hamon, where the effect of prolonging life becomes more and more obvious in the later stages.
The function of breathing styles is relatively simple. It strengthens the cardiopulmonary function, allowing the blood to absorb a large amount of oxygen in a short period of time, and in the process of breathing, the physical ability is greatly increased.
Overuse can also easily cause damage to one's own body.
The advantage is that the first generation of breathing style swordsmen created various schools of breathing styles and matching sword techniques based on their respective personalities, and these have been passed down to the present day, allowing people to freely choose the corresponding school to learn.
And in the later stages of the work, several powerful auxiliary abilities appeared, such as the "Mark," the "Crimson Blade," and the "Transparent World."
The Mark is an ability that trades lifespan for combat power. The Crimson Blade is more about the weapon. Let's not talk about these two for now.
The Transparent World, on the other hand, requires the user to be able to perfectly and precisely control their own breathing and movements, in order to have a chance to reach the supreme realm of martial arts where the entire world becomes transparent and one can see through everything.
If you have any ideas, you can try to find the whereabouts of the breathing styles and analyze the similarities and differences between it and Hamon. If you can use the ripple to drive the matching sword techniques of the breathing styles, it should be a considerable improvement to your strength.]
