A newbie's anime life diary

The lady had gotten up quite early, and the call was answered quickly.

"Hello, Auntie, I am Hiratsuka Yukiteru."

"Oh, it's Yukiteru-kun. What brings you here? Are you looking for Eriri? She's still sleeping." Sawamura Sayuri didn't seem to care how Yukiteru got her number; after all, it wouldn't be difficult for him to find her if he wanted to.

“We do need to find Eriri, but what you said will have a similar effect.” Then, Yukiteru told Sayuri about the matter again, but omitted some unconventional details.

"I'm already handling the download on my end. Anyway, please keep an eye on Eriri today and don't let her run around."

"Don't worry, Yukiteru-kun. Eriri, that girl, even if I chase her out, she won't bother to go out." Sawamura Sayuri casually complained about her daughter before saying, "It's really kind of you to inform me, Yukiteru-kun. I was aware of the disappearance, but I didn't expect it to be this serious. I'll keep an eye on Eriri."

"That's good. In that case, I'll hang up now. I'll come and bother you again when I have time."

"You're very welcome! Thank you again, Yuki-kun."

After hanging up the phone, Sayuri Sawamura went upstairs, opened Eriri's room, and looked at her daughter who was still fast asleep in bed. She gave a wry smile: "He really is a nice guy, it's a pity that the Yukinoshita family's daughter beat him to it, otherwise I would really like to let Eriri compete for him. But it seems that their relationship isn't too bad."

After saying that, he quietly left and closed the door.

Meanwhile, after communicating with Yukino and the others who had already gotten up and made arrangements, Yukiteru officially set off.

I've recently become obsessed with Uncharted 4 Online, but I'm just a lazy bum and keep getting wrecked _(:з」∠)_

Chapter 162 More Than One Side

After arriving by car, Xuehui arrived at a temporary, well-hidden office in Chiba Prefecture.

Pushing open the door, Xuehui saw an unexpected figure.

A middle-aged man with black hair, wearing black-rimmed glasses, and a kind face.

"Uncle Ganye, what are you doing here?"

The person standing before Yukiteru was none other than Ryougi Shiki's husband, Ryougi Mikiya.

In front of Ryougi Kanya lay a map of Chiba Prefecture, marked with countless symbols. Upon seeing Yukiteru, he snapped out of his reverie, smiled, and said, "I've already traveled to several places in the Kanto region. After all, aimless, carpet-searching takes too long."

Upon arriving beside Ryougi Kanya, Yukiteru understood his mission. Although he lacked combat prowess, this middle-aged man was undoubtedly top-notch in information gathering and deduction.

"So, are there any clues? Finding their hiding place as soon as possible is crucial to ensuring their safety."

Ryougi Kan also nodded: "I investigated the places where the missing persons appeared early this morning. Because of their identities, the three women didn't frequent ordinary places; they either went to places with surveillance cameras or large shopping malls with high foot traffic. But there was no unusual activity in these places, and the three women disappeared at different times, some during the day and some at night. To be honest, it's quite troublesome. Ordinary yokai wouldn't be so meticulous and cautious. I guess someone is planning something for them. In the end, I combined other clues I collected with information from some yokai I'm on good terms with here to arrive at these locations."

As he spoke, Liangyi Gan took out thumbtacks and marked more than a dozen points on the map.

Upon seeing this, Xuehui raised an eyebrow: "So many?"

"So this operation has been not only troublesome but also exhausting. I even suspect that the other side has humans among them, in addition to demons. Otherwise, just looking at Chiba, we've been monitoring it for almost a month, even teaming up with three shrine maidens for divination and searching, but we've been interrupted every time. The only thing we're certain of is that the other side is still in Chiba. But even so, they haven't made a single move. Logically, a protracted war should be very disadvantageous for them, but..."

"But the fact that they can endure this much suggests they're confident and don't mind a protracted war. It seems they have others helping them. And can they stop the three priestesses from performing their divination together? It seems the yokai in Kyoto have put a lot of thought into this. No, perhaps it's more than that."

Just then, a phone call came in. Xuehui looked at the caller ID on her phone and smiled. It really came at the right time.

As soon as the call connected, a flat voice came from the other end of the line: "Long time no see, Hiratsuka Yukiteru-kun, how have you been?"

"It was good at first, but the thought of having to pay you a large sum for information makes me feel uneasy, Kaiki Nishu."

Although there was a hint of displeasure in her tone, Xuehui genuinely felt that the call from the fraudster was quite timely.

"It seems Hiratsuka-kun understands the meaning behind my call. So let's get straight to the point. Although the information isn't complete, regarding the yokai in Kyoto that I dare not investigate, the Hyakumonogatari Group in Tokyo, which you asked me to investigate, seems to have made some moves. Several members quietly left Tokyo three months ago and their whereabouts are still unknown. Although I can't find out the exact number of members involved, I have found out about a few of the executives."

"Tell me, and I will pay you a satisfactory reward."

Hearing Kaiki Deishuu's words, Yukiteru's mood was not only not happy, but also became more serious.

"I'll talk about the cadres who went to other places later. The one who came to Chiba seems to have the reputation of a storyteller. His true identity is unknown, but he seems to have the ability to bewitch people. The fact that things aren't going well in Chiba Prefecture is probably because he's involved."

Next, Kaiki Deishuu talked about the other members of the Hyakumonogatari Group who had left Tokyo, which made Yukiteru very satisfied with Kaiki Deishuu's efficiency.

At the same time, he turned on the speakerphone on his phone, so that Ryougi Kan, who was next to him, could immediately record all the information.

A few minutes later, Bei Mu Nishu finished giving all the information and hung up the phone happily after Xue Hui told him that the money would be transferred soon.

Putting away his notebook, Ryougi Kanya let out a soft sigh and said, "Very useful information, something I've been overlooking. Based on these guys' characteristics, we can find their locations much faster. So, Yukiteru, I'll leave this to you. I need to head to other places."

Xuehui nodded, and then asked one last question: "Did Saeko-nee and Yomi-nee also go somewhere else?"

"Saeko is in Shizuoka, and Yomi is in Kanagawa. However, their progress is better than here, especially Saeko. This morning, she seems to have tracked down someone who gave himself away, and they will be able to complete the mission soon."

Xuehui suddenly realized why he hadn't heard from the two people for several days; they had gone far away.

After putting away the map marked by Ryougi Kanya, Yukiteru left with him, leading a small team to officially begin their secret search.

And this busy period lasted for an entire day.

That night, Xuehui didn't go home either. He sent a message and then turned off his phone to continue interrogating the little monster he had captured.

At home, Yukino Utaha and her older sister Shizuka sat side by side on the sofa, looking at the messages on Yukino's phone in silence.

"They really aren't coming back. It seems things are really serious..." Shiyu sighed, then looked at Yang Nai sitting on the other side of the single sofa, who had been staring at her with a strange look since noon. "I say, it's been a whole day. Has Yang Nai had enough? I don't do yuri stuff."

"I'm not doing it either. I just admire Yukiteru-kun and am amazed that Yukino-chan agreed. But thinking about it more carefully, it's really, really what I expected."

With a kind smile, Yang Nai finally turned her gaze to her younger sister.

'It seems Yukino is facing considerable competition. Kasumigaoka Utaha's physique is clearly much stronger than Yukino's. Maybe I should give her a massage tonight when I sleep with Yukino? I wonder if a girl's help will be effective. Hmm... I hope Yukiteru-kun won't mind?'

Recalling the night before Yukino moved in, Haruno couldn't help but sigh, realizing how dirty she had become.

Watching this scene, Xiao Jing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she hadn't been exposed. She could keep her secret for as long as possible.

Yukino, who had just been glanced at by Haruno, felt a chill run down her spine.

Trash civilization, burning through my time _(:з」∠)_

Hmm~~~ One more round~~

Chapter 163 A guest visits, but the male homeowner isn't home?! (Just kidding!)

Late at night, everyone was asleep. Haruno lay down next to Yukino, sharing a blanket with her younger sister for the first time in a long time.

As for the things she had thought about before, she didn't put any of them into practice, because she knew her younger sister would definitely object. And although she liked her younger sister very much, she wasn't a lesbian.

With her eyes open, looking at Yukino who had fallen into a deep sleep beside her, Haruno sighed silently.

As noon approached and they arrived at their new home, although Yukiteru's words that morning had slightly dampened his spirits, the thought of spending the next two days with Yukino quickly cheered this siscon up.

As a result, when she rang the doorbell and Yukino came to open the door for her, Haruno saw that Yukino wasn't alone; there were two other people sitting at the dining table in the living room.

Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was both her former teacher and current friend, appeared here, which surprised Haruno at all.

However, the other girl, wearing a nightgown and eating lazily, was named Kasumigaoka Utaha.

What's going on? Could it be that they were summoned here, just like me?

On second thought, it doesn't seem quite right.

Utaha noticed Haruno walking in, but wasn't surprised at all. She greeted her warmly and continued eating, acting like...the lady of the house?

Afterwards, facing Haruno's questioning gaze, Yukino knew it would be difficult to keep Utaha's matter a secret, so she had no choice but to take Haruno back to the bedroom and start talking, but she concealed the matter of Hiratsuka Shizuka.

This was Xiaojing's own request. Although it has nothing to do with Yangnai, let's take it one step at a time.

Indeed, just mentioning Utaha almost made Haruno explode, and it was only with great difficulty that Yukino managed to suppress it.

'Thank goodness that guy didn't come back, otherwise I would definitely interrogate him thoroughly to see if he's still having affairs. And while I'm at it, I have to make it up to Yukino; she's done so much for him, the first child should definitely be Yukino's...'

Hmm~~~ I have to say, Yukinoshita Haruno's way of thinking is quite unique.

The night passed and it was Sunday. Today was the day we were supposed to have our housewarming party.

"But Yukiteru-kun hasn't returned yet. Should we really do it?"

After breakfast, Yang Nai sat cross-legged on the sofa and asked with some confusion.

"Didn't Yukiteru-kun say in his message last night that he should eat and drink as he pleases, and that he'll definitely be back when it's time?" Yukino said after changing into casual clothes and entering the living room. "However, a few guests might be a little late. Sister, would you like to go to the supermarket with us?"

"Go! Of course I'll go! Otherwise, it'll be so boring leaving me here alone!" Yang Nai said, raising her hand. "I suddenly realized it's okay if Yuki-kun doesn't come back today. That way, it'll be all girls here, and we can all relax and have fun. I'll teach you some fun games that girls play at parties~"

"I feel like Yukiteru made a mistake by sending Haruno over here," Shizuka said with a wry smile as she listened to the other person's words. If both Yukiteru and Yukino were here, they could keep Haruno in check, but now that there's only Yukino, Haruno is bound to get carried away again.

“Same here…” Shiyu nodded in agreement. After spending time with Yukino yesterday, Shiyu had come to understand that Yukino’s older sister was a complete wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Utaha thought that although she was a bit sharp-tongued, she was not a bad person at heart. But this Yukinoshita Haruno was really full of bad intentions and loved to cause trouble. She couldn't stand it.

However... other guests are coming today, so I won't participate too much then. I'll just quietly be a pretty girl and watch the show.

The four of them went out together, drove to the supermarket for a big shopping trip, attracted a lot of attention, and had their accompanying security personnel deal with several people who tried to chat them up before finally returning home with bags full of purchases.

At 10:30, the doorbell rang for the first time.

Yukino came out and opened the door, and then she saw Eriri standing at the door, who was clearly dressed up.

Yukino couldn't help but think about it for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and welcomed Eriri in: "Please come in, Sawamura-kun, you're the first one here today."

"Sorry to bother you."

After saying a polite greeting, Eriri came in and changed into slippers.

As she entered, Eriri secretly observed the house.

'I heard that Xuehui-kun bought it with his royalties, paying in full upfront? I wonder when I'll ever have that kind of income. Besides, the magazine went on sale today, and I didn't even have the courage to look at it...'

Upon entering the living room, Eriri saw Yukinoshita Haruno, Hiratsuka Shizuka, and Kasumigaoka Utaha sitting there.

She knew she would run into Kasumigaoka Utaha, but the other two were people she had to greet properly.

"Ah, hello, Hiratsuka-sensei, and Haruno-san."

Not to mention Shizuka-neechan, besides being Yukiteru's cousin and guardian, she is also a teacher at the school. Eriri needs to correct her attitude properly.

Yukino Yukinoshita is a typical example that many families in Chiba often mention when educating their younger generations; she is the "other people's child" in Japan.
