My daily life with the original diva

It turned out he was in a hurry to come back and choose photos. That was indeed a very important matter. Kimura Hiroshi turned his head to look at the camera's small display screen, which showed photos of the two of them. Kimura Hiroshi said, "We need to choose carefully. Let's take a look together."

"Hmm, hmm, let's take a look together. Hiro, what do you think of this one? It's a bit ugly, but it's really fun. I think we can print it out and save it." Nakamori Akina started telling Kimura Hiro which photos to save.

It has to be said that they took a lot of photos on this trip, probably more than a thousand. There were their proper wedding photos, some ordinary photos, and even some where the two of them deliberately made themselves look ugly. There were also various photos of everyone together, as well as some unusable photos that weren't quite right, which were naturally unnecessary.

The two of them sat there selecting photos for almost half an hour, but they still hadn't finished. This was mainly because Akina Nakamori couldn't bear to delete many of the photos, and she also wanted to talk to Hiroshi Kimura about what happened when the photos were taken, which was a huge waste of time. It was simply impossible to finish selecting them in a short period of time.

"Gurgle..." Kimura Hiroshi's stomach was growling with hunger when he realized what was happening. He quickly pressed down on the camera screen and said, "If we keep selecting like this, I don't know how long it will take to finish. I think we should just print out all the photos except the bad ones and put them into an album. That way, we won't have to go through all that trouble to choose."

Kimura Hiroshi really didn't want to choose anymore, so he suggested printing out all the photos so they wouldn't have to continue selecting.

Inspired by Hiroshi Kimura's idea, Akina Nakamori said, "Yes, I really like all these photos. In that case, let's just print them all out and not have to choose anymore."

Finally, there was no need to choose anymore. Kimura Hiro stretched and said, "Since we don't have to choose anymore, let's go out for dinner. Your Hiro-kun is starving, his stomach is growling."

"Ah, is that so? Let me listen to see if Hiro's stomach is rumbling." After saying that, Nakamori Akina lay down and put her ear to Kimura Hiro's stomach, genuinely wanting to hear the rumbling.

Unable to resist pinching Akina Nakamori's nose, Hiroshi Kimura stopped his playful behavior, saying, "Don't listen to it, it's not barking anymore. Let's hurry downstairs to eat, it's already past seven o'clock."

"Ah, is it already past seven o'clock?" Nakamori Akina said in surprise, then looked at her pajamas and lay down on Kimura Hiroshi again.

"Hongjun, look how late it is. If I go downstairs, I'll need to change clothes, and when I come back I'll definitely need to take a shower. That would be such a hassle. How about we eat at home tonight? Of course, I'll have to trouble you to cook dinner for me, Hongjun, okay?"

As she spoke, she looked at Kimura Hiroshi with pleading eyes. Nakamori Akina knew that this was what her fiancé couldn't stand the most. As long as she looked at him with those eyes, he would definitely agree to her request.

As expected, Kimura Hiroshi softened immediately when he saw Nakamori Akina's eyes and said, "Alright, let's eat at home then. But we need to check what we have at home. If we don't have anything, then we can't go out."

“Hiro-kun is truly the best person. I’ll go with him to see what’s left in the fridge, and we’ll eat whatever we find,” Akina Nakamori said.

The two approached the refrigerator. Kimura Hiroshi opened it and found that there were many fresh ingredients inside. He immediately sensed something was wrong, because they had been gone for so long. How could there be such fresh ingredients in the refrigerator? He remembered that when they left, there were only some eggs and cheese in the refrigerator, but now there were vegetables and seafood.

Everything seemed so wrong; there must be some conspiracy. Kimura Hiroshi turned to look at Nakamori Akina and said, "Ah, what's going on? We've been gone for so long, and there are fresh ingredients in the refrigerator. I checked the dates, and they came from the supermarket today. That's amazing."

"Yes, it's really amazing. Could it be that some kind person knew we were going to have dinner at home today and prepared this for us in advance? They are such a kind person. If I met them, I would definitely thank them." Nakamori Akina said sincerely.

Completely defeated by the woman in front of him, Kimura Hiroshi couldn't help but tap Nakamori Akina's forehead and say, "Yes, we should thank this person properly, but just because someone randomly enters someone else's house, they should be arrested. Okay, I'm going to cook, but Akina will have to help me and chop the vegetables."

Chapter 610 You've been bewitched by a man's good looks

After nearly a month of intensive promotion, "Triangle," the second time-travel film written and directed by Hiroshi Kimura, has officially begun its theatrical run in Japan. It will also be released in other markets in the coming week. This is a rare instance of a Japanese film being released in a global market.

Toho's investment in this film was unprecedented. Not only did they invest in the production costs, but their post-production promotional investment was also the largest in the Japanese film industry in many years. In Japan, they promoted and advertised the film on television programs, television commercials, film newspapers, film magazines, and even radio stations, providing comprehensive promotion.

Toho even deliberately released some strange gossip, such as Hiroshi Kimura and Yasuko Sawaguchi having great chemistry on set and their relationship becoming increasingly intimate. Toho brought out all these rumors and gossip, and the person behind the scenes didn't object at all. They really went all out to promote the movie.

Naturally, with such a powerful publicity campaign, it would be difficult not to know about this movie. Many people are very curious about it, wondering what kind of time-travel movie Hiroshi Kimura will create this time, and what kind of movie would make Toho invest so much money in it.

On the day of its release, almost all Toho cinemas were packed with people, making movie tickets extremely difficult to obtain.

However, this was no problem for people with connections, such as Akina Nakamori. As it was a movie directed by her fiancé, it was incredibly easy for Akina Nakamori to get movie tickets. She didn't need to compete with others at all. She got two tickets for 5 p.m. and went to watch the movie with her good friend Kyoko Koizumi at a movie theater near Roppongi.

The reason for choosing Roppongi was that Kyoko Koizumi was recording a program at a Japanese television station in Roppongi, and the recording wouldn't finish until 5 p.m., so I had time to watch a movie with her.

Just before five o'clock, Kyoko Koizumi, wearing sunglasses, hurriedly appeared at the movie theater entrance and easily spotted Akina Nakamori, who was also wearing sunglasses and looking at a magazine.

"I'm sorry, Akina-chan, the recording of the program didn't go very smoothly, so it took a while and I'm late," Kyoko Koizumi said somewhat apologetically.

However, Akina Nakamori didn't seem to mind. She put down her magazine, stood up, and patted Kyoko Koizumi on the shoulders with both hands, saying, "It's okay. I know that recording a program isn't always smooth sailing. It's normal to be delayed for a while. But the movie is about to start, so let's hurry in. Oh, and I bought popcorn and drinks."

After picking up the things they had bought in advance, the two hurried into the screening room. The movie was about to start in a few minutes, and if they went in late, they might miss the beginning.

When the two entered the screening room, it was already packed with people. Apart from their seats, there wasn't a single empty seat, which showed how popular the movie was.

"There are really a lot of people. It looks like Kimura-san's movie will do very well at the box office again." Seeing the movie theater packed with people, Kyoko Koizumi knew that the box office would be good.

Akina Nakamori expressed the same opinion, saying, "That's for sure. Hiro-kun put a lot of effort into this movie, and the filming was very hard."

Seeing Akina Nakamori speaking so highly of Hiroshi Kimura, Kyoko Koizumi couldn't help but tease her, saying, "Really? I heard he got along very well with that Ms. Yasuko on set, and they were quite close. Akina, aren't you worried at all? Aren't you afraid that Mr. Kimura might have some kind of close relationship with another woman?"

Unable to resist pinching Koizumi Kyoko's cheek, Nakamori Akina said, "Kyoko-chan, why are you talking nonsense like those gossip media outlets? Hiro-kun isn't that kind of person. He's the man I've ever met who knows best how to keep his distance from other women. I know very well how he and Yasuko-san are doing. They don't have any intimate relationship at all; they can only be considered friends at most."

Not only did she speak well of Kimura Hiroshi, but she also defended him. Koizumi Kyoko said angrily, "I think Akina-chan, you've been completely bewitched by that Kimura-san guy. It must be because of his handsome face. Not only did you speak up for him, but you also pinched my cheek for him and stopped going out with me. When you finally asked me out, you still went to see his movie. It's really infuriating."

Since Akina Nakamori and Hiro Kimura got together, the time they spend together has indeed decreased significantly. They didn't have much free time to begin with, and with this reduction, it's easy to imagine how little time they have left to spend together. Kyoko Koizumi also harbors some resentment towards Hiro Kimura.

Seeing Kyoko Koizumi's expression, Akina Nakamori found it somewhat amusing and said, "Alright, alright, let's not talk about Hiro-kun anymore. Today, let's watch a movie with Kyoko-chan first, then we'll go out for dinner together, and then go to karaoke. We definitely won't involve Hiro-kun, is that alright?"

“That’s more like it. Even if you two get married in the future, you must set aside some time for me so we can go out alone. Don’t bring that Kimura-san guy, understand?” Koizumi Kyoko said.

Nodding hurriedly, Akina Nakamori said, "Okay, no problem. But once you're married, it'll probably be hard to have this kind of opportunity again."

"Don't worry, Akina-chan, I won't get married so easily," Kyoko Koizumi said with great certainty.

Akina Nakamori didn't know that, but she did know that Kyoko Koizumi wasn't having a good time in love and had officially broken off contact with Ikuya Fujii. She didn't know where Kyoko's future happiness would lie.

The two chatted for a bit more before the movie officially started. They couldn't continue talking, so they could only focus on the movie, just like the other audience members.

However, Akina Nakamori could still hear people around her whispering about the movie when it started. She paid a lot of attention to what they were saying. There was no way around it; it was a movie directed by Hiroshi Kimura, and she cared a lot about what the audience thought. Of course, what she wanted to hear most was praise.

"It's starting, it's starting. I wonder what new stuff that Kimura-san will come up with. I heard it has time travel elements again."

"It shouldn't be one of those movies about kids falling in love like last time. I saw the poster; the female lead is covered in blood and holding a big axe. Plus, the movie's title is 'Triangle,' so it's bound to have some horror elements. I love watching these kinds of movies. What's so interesting about kids falling in love?"

"Hmph, no wonder you're still single at thirty. You can't do it yourself, why don't you watch some movies and learn? Honestly, look how amazing Kimura-san is. Not only can he make romance movies, but he also managed to win over the top actress, Akina Nakamori. If you had even ten percent of his ability, I, your elementary school classmate, wouldn't be here watching movies with you now."

"Pfft!" The discussion between the two people behind her was so interesting that Nakamori Akina couldn't help but chuckle. Fortunately, she quickly covered her mouth and didn't make a sound. However, Koizumi Kyoko next to her still looked at her with a puzzled expression. Nakamori Akina quickly sat up straight and pretended that nothing had happened.

On the screen, the movie officially begins. Junko, a beautiful single mother, is in a bad mood and, at the invitation of her boyfriend Ken, decides to take a small yacht and go out to sea with her friends.

However, when they arrived at the port that day, Junko came alone; her son did not come with her. Moreover, Junko's condition was very strange; she seemed detached. Ike thought she was not feeling well, so he let her rest on the small yacht, and the group set sail smoothly.

Disturbed by a nightmare, Junko woke up and went to the deck of the small yacht to chat with her friends.

At this point in the movie, the two people behind me started talking again.

"This is such a bland start. Is this the 'Terror Cruise' they're talking about? Hmm... could these people be fighting on this little boat? Well, what would be the reason? This boat is so small, they could easily knock people off the boat in a few moves, right?"

"Damn it, can't you watch properly? This has only just begun, what's the rush?" my friend couldn't help but scold.

Akina Nakamori in the front row strongly agreed, "That's right, what's the rush? This small boat isn't where the story takes place at all; the big cruise ship in the back is."

Junko and her group were chatting on the small yacht, but before long, a storm cloud suddenly appeared in the distance, accompanied by lightning and thunder. It approached at an alarming speed, and the people on the small yacht had no time to react before being swallowed up by the storm cloud. Under the strong winds, the small yacht quickly capsized, and the communication equipment fell into the sea. One person even died, but the rest of the people survived and climbed onto the overturned small yacht.

Just as they were arguing about how to call for help, a huge, dilapidated, and eerily gloomy cruise ship slowly sailed toward them from afar, drawing everyone's attention to the ship that looked so abnormal.

"Oh my god, oh my god, a ghost ship! Damn it, so this is the terrifying cruise ship, the ghost ship! Kimura-san actually thought of this. What do you think is on board? Ghosts?"

"How should I know? Can't you just watch it properly?" my friend said impatiently.

Meanwhile, Kyoko Koizumi, who was in the front row, tugged at Akina Nakamori's sleeve and said, "Is this a ghost ship? Akina-chan, do you know what's on board? Could there really be ghosts? That would be terrifying. I'm a little scared."

“Don’t be afraid, Kyoko-chan, there are no ghosts, but it might be a little scary. If you’re really scared, you can grab my arm,” Akina Nakamori said to Kyoko Koizumi.

Kyoko Koizumi immediately grabbed Akina Nakamori's arm, clearly afraid that if something terrifying appeared, it would be too late for her to grab it.

The movie continues, and Junko and the others stand on the overturned small yacht looking at the huge cruise ship. They all sense that something is wrong with the cruise ship, but their boat has already capsized and they have no way to contact rescue. If another storm comes, they may all die. So even if something is wrong with this big cruise ship, they have to get on it.

Ultimately, some people saw what appeared to be people watching them from the large cruise ship, so they decided to go aboard, reasoning that if there were people on board, there was a high chance of rescue, and going aboard was the best option.

So the group boarded the ship, but as the camera zoomed out, they didn't see that the ship's name was Aeolus, the name of the Greek god of wind. But that's not the point. The point is that she had a son, Sisyphus, who, because he deceived Death, was made by Death to push a boulder up a mountain. He would push it up and it would fall down, push it up and it would fall down again, endlessly.

Once aboard, Junko and the others found the ship completely empty, with no one around. They could only wander around the ship, searching for someone. In order to find the person they might have seen earlier as quickly as possible, they decided to split up to search. However, things started to go wrong. First, they heard some noise, but when they went to look for the person, they couldn't find them.

They chased after the gunshot to room 2377, only to find strange writing in blood inside. They comforted themselves and walked out, but soon after, they heard gunshots again. They ran to the lobby and found that their friend had been shot. Their friend pointed out that Junko had shot him, but Junko was not there when they were told.

Just then, they heard a noise. Eager to prove it, Junko chased after the commotion but couldn't find anyone. Instead, another friend found her and asked why she had fired the gun. In her agitated state, Junko accidentally shot him, causing him to run into a nail on the boat. His head was covered in blood. Junko was terrified and ran away immediately.

"It's a ghost, it's a ghost. It must be a ghost disguised as Junko who attacked her friend. Those things were also set up by the ghost. There's a terrifying ghost on the ship, that must be it."

"Can you stop arguing? There could be a ghost or a person. They saw someone before they boarded the ship. It must be that person. There might be some treasure on this ship. That person doesn't want others to come, so they deliberately set a trap to kill all these people so they can keep the treasure for themselves." His friend offered his opinion.

"Well, that's quite possible, it might be."

Listening to the discussion in the back row, Koizumi Kyoko, already somewhat frightened by the terrifying atmosphere, grabbed Nakamori Akina's arm and whispered, "Akina-chan, is it a ghost or a person? Why did Kimura-san make such a scary movie?"

Spoilers would ruin the movie, so Akina Nakamori didn't want to say anything. But she enjoyed listening to these people's discussions because they couldn't guess how the movie would go and were still captivated, which meant the movie was a success and very appealing.

"See for yourself, Kyoko-chan. You'll be amazed when you see what happens next," Akina Nakamori said meaningfully.

Chapter 611 Difficult Movies

The movie's plot began to get interesting, and everyone in the theater focused their attention on the screen. Even the chatter subsided, as everyone was eager to know whether the attackers were human or ghosts.

Junko accidentally shot her friend, causing him to fall to the ground. Just then, another gunshot rang out. She quickly ran back to the lobby, but her friend continued to point at her and shot and wounded others, claiming that she was the one who had told them to gather in the lobby. Junko could only continue to explain.

Just as she was struggling to explain, the person who attacked them appeared. A masked man was firing wildly at them with a gun. All the surviving friends fell into pools of blood. Junko was furious. She found a fire axe and chased after the masked man in the direction he had fired.

Junko chased the masked man all the way to the deck, but she still couldn't see him. Just as she was wondering what was going on, the masked man appeared behind her. His gun was out of bullets, so he could only attack her with the butt of his gun.

But Junko, completely enraged, unleashed her full fighting power and managed to corner the masked man with a fire axe. Junko kept asking him why he had attacked them.

The masked man, already on the cruise ship's railing, shouted almost hoarsely, "Kill them, Junko! We have to kill them, Junko, so we can go home. Remember my words, kill them!"

Junko was a little confused and tired. She didn't know why the masked man would say such things. Just then, music came from the cabin. She went in and turned off the music, then wanted to rest for a while.

Just then, cries for help came from the sea. Junko thought someone was coming and quickly ran out. As she looked out at the sea with her back to the sun, she was filled with immense fear and disbelief.

Because the people calling for help on the sea were her friends who had just died, and herself. They were calling for help there, just as they had before boarding the ship, and the person who seemed to be on the ship was actually herself.

At this moment, not only Junko on the ship, but also the audience in the screening room felt their worldviews were being shaken beyond words. What was this? Another Junko and her friends had appeared?

"Oh my god, oh my god, what is this? What is this? Why is there another Junko? And why are her friends alive again? This isn't right. What's going on?"

“The ship, this cruise ship is not right. Didn’t you notice? This terrifying ghost ship is heading in the opposite direction from when they boarded it. That is to say, it has gone back, not only itself, but also time and the people on board. I understand, time travel, no, it should be time loop. Killing everyone will allow us to escape this loop, is that right? Then is that masked person another Junko?” My friend is much more rational, he actually saw something.

Meanwhile, Kyoko Koizumi, standing next to Akina Nakamori, was completely bewildered. She couldn't understand it, but she was deeply shocked. Time loops, the same people, the same things happening again—could a person with a normal mind come up with such a thing?

But no matter what they think, Junko in the movie knows that she has fallen into some kind of terrible cycle. She tries to avoid it, but then she finds that many of the things she does are similar to the sounds she heard and saw when she first boarded the ship. No matter what she does, it matches the things that happened before.

She became increasingly distraught, desperate to save her friends. But when she hid in a cabin, she found the floor covered with crumpled pieces of paper, each with the message, "Kill them before we can disembark." Without hesitation, she picked up a pen and wrote the same thing, with the exact same result. This meant that she had experienced this cycle countless times.

Ultimately, she decided to kill the other Junko, hoping that killing her would end the cycle and allow her to reunite with her son. So she put on the same clothes, the same hood, and the same gun as the masked man, and as a result, another masked man with a gun appeared.

The audience in the screening room were stunned. They hadn't expected that things would connect again, meaning that Junko really had attacked her friends, only this Junko wasn't the same Junko.

But the more you try to change something, the more things will develop in the original direction. Junko tried to change the ending where her friends all died, but she found that things were exactly the same as when she boarded the ship. In the end, her friends died in front of her just like before, and a hidden deck was piled with corpses. She discovered that there were not only Junko No. 1 and No. 2 on the ship, but also others.

In the final cycle, Junko was thrown into the sea just like the masked man from the previous time. When she woke up, she found herself back at the beach, which made her overjoyed, thinking that she had escaped the loop. Even the people in the screening room thought so.

"Ah, damn it, she's finally out! Junko is rescued! She's finally out of that horrible cruise ship!"

"Really? Is that really the case? I have a feeling that Kimura-san would never write a plot like this. Something's not quite right. The movie isn't over yet, so anything is still possible."

The plot continues to unfold. Just as Junko, who had fallen into the sea, rushed home to reunite with her son, she saw another version of herself lashing out at him, not only scolding him but also hitting her. Perhaps driven mad by murder, or perhaps having experienced life and death, she could not tolerate having a version of herself treating her son this way.
