This time, bringing Shinomiya Kaguya here, one reason was to see the answer Kanoe Yuuko gave, and the other was to introduce Kanoe Yuuko, a former diary holder, to Shinomiya Kaguya.
Kanoe Yuuko was still nominally a diary holder, but as long as she hadn't completely severed ties with the shadow Yuuko, the ownership of the diary could bounce back and forth between the two ghosts.
Miyauchi Hikage wanted to see what sparks would fly between Shinomiya Kaguya and Kanoe Yuuko in such a situation.
He introduced Shinomiya Kaguya's identity to Kanoe Yuuko, and then asked for Kanoe Yuuko's opinion on the video.
After pondering for a few days, and with Kanoe Kirie's request, Kanoe Yuuko naturally chose to let all the truths be revealed.
This was fair to everyone.
She just didn't know if Kanoe Yukariko, who was still lying unconscious in the hospital, could wake up again after this and confess her past sins to everyone.
However, even if she really did so, it probably wouldn't make the shadow Yuuko dissipate.
After all, besides wanting to take revenge on Kanoe Yukariko and her descendants, the shadow Yuuko's resentment in the past half-century was also to make Kanoe Yuuko, the main body, feel her own pain.
Even if Kanoe Yukariko admitted her mistake, Kanoe Yuuko was about to become a god. If the shadow Yuuko knew about this, it would probably only generate more resentment.
Because the protagonist of this meeting was not him, when Kanoe Yuuko shifted the topic to him and asked about the situation in Chichibu City a few days ago, Miyauchi Hikage used the excuse that he had signed a confidentiality agreement for those things and left the stage to Shinomiya Kaguya and Kanoe Yuuko.
After hearing the introduction about Shinomiya Kaguya, Kanoe Yuuko didn't have much interest.
After all, the Shinomiya family was still a nobody in her era.
In her era, the most famous conglomerate in Japan should have been the Karasuma Group.
The Suzuki Zaibatsu, Shinomiya Zaibatsu, Sanzenin Zaibatsu, and so on were all new forces that emerged after the collapse of the Karasuma Group.
She just wanted to know the whereabouts of the shadow Yuuko, and whether her mysterious diary would be used by the shadow Yuuko to do bad things.
Shinomiya Kaguya, on the other hand, was carefully observing Kanoe Yuuko before her.
What a beautiful ghost girl.
Her clear eyes showed no trace of having lived for more than half a century, and her thinking seemed to have stopped at the moment of death.
In addition, the memories after becoming a ghost were also regularly cleaned up and transmitted to the memory trash can of the shadow Yuuko, resulting in Kanoe Yuuko not having many memories remaining, apart from smoothly recalling the memories of her life with the help of the diary's ability.
Before coming here, Miyauchi Hikage had already explained Kanoe Yuuko's past experiences to her in detail.
She knew how this ghost who had wandered the world for more than half a century had been killed by her own sister back then, and she also knew that in order to cover up her killing intent towards her sister, she had split herself into two different individuals, one good and one bad.
What she suspected was that this guy had initially been protected by the diary, resisting the shadow Yuuko's attack, and then in the subsequent confrontation, lost the ownership of the diary, resulting in the diary being snatched by the shadow Yuuko.
She was here to confirm this matter.
It could be said that after Kanoe Yuuko appeared in front of her, she had already taken out her own diary, wanting to check if the other party had any reaction.
However, it seemed that the mysterious person did not deceive them on this point. Different batches of diary holders would also be shielded from each other.
Neither Miyauchi Hikage nor Kanoe Yuuko reacted to the small black notebook in her hand, and there was absolutely no feedback regarding the words she said related to the diary.
She had secretly tested Miyauchi Hikage dozens of times in the past day or so. So far, Miyauchi Hikage had not revealed a single flaw, and his eyes had never cast a single glance of attention towards the diary in her hand.
The 5% probability dropped a little more.
But on Kanoe Yuuko's side, although she had no reaction at first, as Shinomiya Kaguya kept mentioning the diary in a roundabout way, she could still realize that the purpose of this strange girl talking to her didn't seem as pure as Miyauchi Hikage's.
But because of the diary's shielding mechanism, their conversation was always difficult to proceed smoothly.
When Shinomiya Kaguya talked about the diary here, it was shielded on Kanoe Yuuko's side, and Kanoe Yuuko's explanation here was also not transmitted to Shinomiya Kaguya's ears.
The two were clearly discussing the same thing seriously, but they couldn't reach any consensus at all.
As for Miyauchi Hikage, acting as a qualified passerby character, even though he knew everything, he still pretended not to understand anything on the side. Towards the end, in order not to be grabbed by the two women to play a puzzle game with them, he simply ran up the mountain to check on the construction of the new shrine.
However, Shinomiya Kaguya still had a brain after all.
Although the two sides always had disagreements in conversation, it was confirmed that the other party indeed had a mysterious object before that others could not see, touch, or understand, and that object was indeed snatched by the shadow Yuuko, almost killing Miyauchi Hikage because of that object.
And the other party's inconsistent tone made it clear that there was definitely something wrong with the other party; otherwise, communication wouldn't be so difficult.
A normal person, even hearing her shielded words, would distort them into relatively normal words or simply ignore her words. This situation could only occur when two mutually shielded guys were chatting.
These things could be noted down, and could also be used as a basis for judgment when facing other second-batch diary holders in the future.
However, the chat with Kanoe Yuuko ended here.
After all, the diary was no longer in Kanoe Yuuko's hands. Even if she was curious about what the mysterious person had written in the diary here these days, she couldn't know from Kanoe Yuuko.
She wanted to pull Kanoe Yuuko into the group chat so that they could communicate any ideas in time in the future, but the other party didn't have a mobile phone yet, and another point was that the other party probably couldn't be pulled into their group chat.
Therefore, Shinomiya Kaguya only left her private contact information to Kanoe Yuuko, so that she could contact her when she had a mobile phone in the future.
And on the way back to Asahigaoka in the afternoon, while discussing Kanoe Yuuko's video and the "mysterious Cursed Tool" taken away by the shadow Yuuko with Miyauchi Hikage, the diary in Shinomiya Kaguya's hand was updated.
Shinomiya Kaguya was sure that during this time, she had been talking to Miyauchi Hikage, and his thinking was very smooth, without any stuttering.
The only problem was why the mysterious person suddenly posted a diary entry early in the afternoon today.
Glancing at Miyauchi Hikage, who was still analyzing that "Cursed Tool," Shinomiya Kaguya apologized to him, saying that she remembered some matters to deal with, and then took out her phone and diary to look through them.
With this look, Shinomiya Kaguya knew what was going on.
Yesterday, the mysterious person claimed that he was taking a vacation at home, casually using the content of a few Conan episodic cases to pad the word count, and by the way, asking people to guess who the murderer was, stating that if the selected comment answered correctly, they could get a mysterious reward.
As a result, the person selected was Takanashi Rikka.
She didn't care who the murderer was.
After spending a lot of effort to finally stop her uncle from taking his whole family abroad for a honeymoon trip, she just wanted to know if she could become a modern dragon knight, and even directly wrote Tohru's name in the comment.
Then, the diary entry written by the mysterious person today was aimed at that giant dragon named Tohru.
[I even came up with the idea of using something interesting as a reward on a whim to stimulate everyone's detective brains, but when I woke up, I saw a completely irrelevant comment.
Anyway, Tyrant's Eye, you won't get the gift I carefully prepared. Congratulations.
But the giant dragon you mentioned is called 'Tohru', right?
I don't know where you learned this name. Has she already come to this world?
Or is she also a diary holder who defied fate and came to this world early to contact one of you?
No matter what the situation is, I really have to pay attention. After all, this Tohru and the forces behind her are really awesome.
Let me tell you about Tohru's situation first.
The other world she lives in is a Japanese-style Western fantasy world where gods exist. Gods, dragons, humans, and multiple races have been waging war in that world for tens of thousands of years.
And Tohru is the daughter of the giant dragon named Emperor of Demise, the leader of the Chaos Faction in that world. She possesses powerful strength. I remember in the setting, she has lived for tens of thousands of years, right?
Anyway, giant dragons in that world can basically live for hundreds of thousands of years. Her tens of thousands of years are roughly equivalent to a dragon just reaching adulthood.
Then, Tohru, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, grew tired of the endless war. And because she couldn't escape her responsibilities due to the restrictions of her identity, she simply ran off alone to challenge all the gods.
The final result was that Tohru was pierced by the dragon-slaying holy sword made by the gods and was on the verge of death.
Then, because of the spatial turbulence caused by the battle between her and the gods, a modern woman went to that world while drunk, pulled out that holy sword, saved Tohru, and then, while drunk, the person and the dragon vented their emotions crazily there.
In the end, Tohru fell in love with the woman who saved her, put down her responsibilities, chose to follow that woman to the modern era, and became her dragon maid with peace of mind.
Yes, this is a yuri slice-of-life anime that was quite popular in my previous life.
However, I am even more curious about where you heard the name Tohru.
After all, after coming to the modern era, she should have cast a confusion spell on herself and only revealed her true form in front of her own people.
Even if the other party is a diary holder, aren't your two batches of holders supposed to shield and repel each other? How did you confirm her identity so quickly?
Could it be that one of you followed Kobayashi to the other world and saved Tohru?
If that's really the case, then you guys are amazing.
Although this dragon girl Tohru is a top-tier love brain, outside of love, she is indeed quite reliable, and her network is strong enough, knowing all big shots.
If you can get her approval, then as long as she stays in this world, you basically don't need to worry about your safety. Maybe if she casually leaks some things, it can help you become a Grade 1 or even a special-grade.
However, if you want to become a dragon knight, given Tohru's loyalty, if the one she likes is still Kobayashi, then you basically have no chance. But if your relationship with Tohru is good enough, and you can fight for the custody of another young dragon from her hands in the future, maybe there is still a chance.
Anyway, it's quite difficult to become a dragon knight in modern times. After all, giant dragons in this world have basically disappeared. Few of the giant dragons that can come to this world are weak. To have a good relationship with them and become a dragon knight still requires a little luck.
I finally went home to rest for a few days, but I didn't expect to miss such a big thing.
Although I hadn't thought about NTRing Kobayashi to subdue Tohru before, nor was I confident about pulling out the holy sword to save Tohru, I still feel a little regretful about missing the opportunity of a dragon maid.
I'll go research again and see if I still have a chance to adopt that young dragon.
Ah, I'll also go next door to test if Tohru is a holder of the second batch of diaries. If I find out, I'll go directly to her for a showdown and hug her thigh.
Alright, that's it for today. I have to set off again to find the dragon. See you tomorrow.]
Reading this diary entry with inexplicable feelings.
Although Honma Meiko had already mentioned Tohru's identity before, after seeing Tohru's original story written by the mysterious person, Shinomiya Kaguya's mood was still a bit subtle.
A dragon girl who had lived for tens of thousands of years, one moment tired of war and fighting to the death with gods, and the next moment falling in love with a human woman because of a life-saving grace and starting a daily yuri life?
This seems a bit outrageous, doesn't it?
However, it seemed that the story had taken a huge turn.
She didn't know who that Kobayashi was. There were more than a million people with the surname Kobayashi in Japan alone. Relying on a surname alone definitely wouldn't find the person, but this had nothing to do with that Kobayashi anymore.
After all, the ones who saved Tohru were Honma Meiko and Miyauchi Hikage beside her.
Seeing that Tohru was following Miyauchi Hikage now, could it be that Miyauchi Hikage saved her and won her heart?
