The strategy of the other world of the love game

"Of course not! Kasumigaoka-san, you misunderstood!"

Upon hearing this, Arima Gana quickly waved his hands and denied it.

Utaha Kasumigaoka started following her after she came out of Ryoma Esaki's house, and she could also make the excuse that it was because she noticed that something was wrong with her.

But if the tracking had already started before this, then the label of stalker would be impossible to wash away.

Arima Kana didn't want to be seen as a pervert who was used to stalking others.

Kasumigaoka Utaha naturally knew that Arima Kana was not following her. After all, with her poor tracking skills, she could detect it now, not to mention in the morning when she was more focused.

But she just wanted to change the subject now, so she had to pretend to be confused to change the subject.

"Since you didn't follow me, how did you know that I went to Lord Liang's house?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha took advantage of Arima Kana's panic and asked her step by step.

"Here......"

Arima Kana's eyes began to become vague, and after hesitating for a while, she finally gave up struggling.

"Okay, I'll tell you everything, but I hope you can keep it a secret for me, Kasumigaoka-san."

"Especially Ezaki-kun."

Kasumigaoka Utaha did not comment, but crossed her arms and said in an imposing manner.

"Go ahead."

Arima Kana looked at the passers-by who kept looking at her, and looked embarrassed.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go somewhere else."

-----------------

ten minutes later.

In a restaurant, Kasumigaoka Utaha was holding a straw in her mouth, her eyes wide open, staring at Arima Kana blankly, as if she had heard something unacceptable.

She didn't even take a sip of the drink she ordered, she was so shocked that she even forgot to drink it.

After a long moment, she let go of the straw and gave a brief summary of what Arima Kana had just said.

"You mean to say that you attended a dinner party hosted by a big director group yesterday, and at the dinner party you met a top-tier actor who had just made a comeback some time ago, and that big star asked you about Liang Zhenjun?"

"Is such that."

Arima Kanae nodded sharply.

"I know this is hard to believe. When I heard the name Ezaki-kun from her mouth, I wondered if I was hallucinating."

As she spoke, she suddenly revealed an expression of self-blame.

"Alas, I was too proud at the time. I thought that if I could help her, I might be able to get in touch with her and my acting career would be on the rise. As a result, I followed her topic and revealed Ezaki-kun's address."

Arima Kanae held her head in her hands, her face filled with fear.

"Yesterday, she left the dinner party right after she learned Ezaki-kun's address from me. That's when I realized something was wrong."

"So I came to Jiang Qijun's house early this morning and hid there, thinking that if anything unexpected happened, I would be able to find it immediately. I just hope that it won't cause irreversible consequences."

As she spoke, Arima Kana suddenly reached out and grabbed Kasumigaoka Utaha's hand, and asked with an urgent look on her face.

"Kasumigaoka-san, I don't know what happened to you at Ezaki-kun's house, but I noticed that you have been acting strange since you left his house. I was afraid that maybe it was because I disclosed the address of Ezaki-kun's house that something happened at Ezaki-kun's house and caused you to become like this."

"I'm not asking you to tell me the truth, just tell me, is everything normal at Ezaki-kun's house?"

"...at least it was normal during the time I was there."

Kasumigaoka Utaha Road.

"As for me...it has nothing to do with what's going on over there."

"That's great! I feel relieved to hear you say that!"

Arima Kana heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"But that big star you just mentioned...what was her name?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha asked with a thoughtful expression.

"Her? Her name is Sakurajima Mai."

Arima Kanae replied.

"Sakurajima Mai... Sakurajima Mai..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha murmured the name several times.

"Why does it feel so familiar?"

"It would be unusual if you weren't familiar with her, right? After all, Mai-san has been in the industry for more than ten years and has starred in many well-known movies and TV series."

There is Magana Road.

"There was a media report that almost 80% of people in Japan know her. She is truly a phenomenal star!"

"is it?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha tilted her head.

"But I am familiar with this name, but it seems that I am not familiar with the celebrity aspect..."

She frowned, and felt as if she was about to remember something, but the harder she tried to think, the more she couldn't grasp the most crucial point.

"Ah! This is so annoying. Why can't I remember it?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha knocked her head, trying to repair her memory through physical means.

"Kasumigaoka-san, you said that your impression of this name is not like that of a celebrity. Could it be that... you came across this name when you were at Ezaki-kun's house?"

Seeing that Kasumigaoka Utaha was so distressed, Arimakana tried to remind her.

Arima Kana's words seemed to clear up Kasumigaoka Utaha's blocked thoughts. Suddenly, a memory that had been vague became clear.

That was the memory of when she was at Ryoma Ezaki's house. In the memory, she broke into Ryoma Ezaki's house and came to Ryoma Ezaki's room, only to find that besides himself, there was another strange girl lying on his bed.

And that girl is Mai Sakurajima!

"I remembered!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha took a deep breath, but after she recalled the past, she was overwhelmed with even more doubts.

Seeing another girl lying in the bed of the boy I like, how could I possibly forget this memory?

And it just happened this morning!

What made Kasumigaoka Utaha even more confused was that when she recalled everything along the way, she became confused at the key points.

She recalled that she expressed her purpose to Ryoma Ezaki in front of Mai Sakurajima, and then she took the initiative to seduce the hesitant Ryoma Ezaki...

But where did Mai Sakurajima go?

Why did Mai Sakurajima suddenly disappear during this process?

When he and Ryoma Esaki were doing unspeakable things, where was Mai Sakurajima?

Could she have been secretly watching the two of them?

The memory that suddenly popped up answered one of Kasumigaoka Utaha's questions, but it also raised a lot of unexplainable questions.

What Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't know was that the reason she suddenly remembered something about Sakurajima Mai was because on the other side, Sakurajima Mai's symptoms of puberty syndrome had disappeared.

Looking back after being reminded by Arima Kana, it was actually just a coincidence.

And these questions of hers might be forgotten again when Sakurajima Mai shows symptoms again.

However, before that, Kasumigaoka Utaha will still be troubled by this question for a while.

"Anyway, I am already satisfied knowing that Ezaki-kun is okay."

Arima Kana couldn't see Kasumigaoka Utaha's memories, so naturally she couldn't feel her troubles, and she was even feeling thankful.

"As for Mai-san, when I have the chance later, I will ask her directly why she wants to know about Ezaki-kun. I always feel uneasy if she doesn't know this."

"Well... I feel like if you go back to Liang Zhenjun's house now, you might run into her."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was still trapped in the confusion brought about by puberty syndrome, and spoke casually upon hearing this.

"Eh? Kasumigaoka-san, you mean... Mai-san is at Ezaki-kun's house?"

Arima Kanae was shocked when he heard this.

As an artist herself, her first reaction when she heard the news was not to be shocked that Mai Sakurajima would go to Ryoshin Esaki's house.

I think that if Mai Sakurajima is a popular star and a young girl, and she is photographed by paparazzi entering and leaving a strange man's house, how will she handle the public relations? !

"Well...I'm not really sure to be honest."

Kasumigaoka Utaha became a little weak.

"Because my memory is also very vague, but one thing I can be sure of is that I did see Sakurajima Mai in Ezaki-kun's house."

"Really? Where in Ezaki-kun's house did you see her? What was she doing at the time?"

Arima Kana seemed to be curious and began to ask questions.

"Uh... well..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly hesitated whether to tell the truth about what she remembered.

She was originally very sure that she had caught the two of them in bed, but the blurriness and missing of the most crucial part of her memory made it impossible for her to trust her memory 100%.

It’s no wonder that Kasumigaoka Utaha was so shaken. After all, she had just given her first time to Ryoma Esaki at his house.

But if there is actually a third person present during this process, the entire process may even be observed on the spot.

When she thought of this possibility, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt overwhelmed and her emotions inevitably broke down.

"What's wrong, Kasumigaoka-san? Is it inconvenient to tell me?"

Seeing Kasumigaoka Utaha's hesitation, Arima Kana asked.

"I think, why don't you just go and find Master Liang to confirm it yourself."

In the end, Kasumigaoka Utaha decided to throw the question to Esaki Ryoma.

"I did see some things, but I'm not sure what I saw is the truth, so I think it would be better for you to ask the person involved directly."

"But, then wouldn't I have to admit to Ezaki-kun that I revealed his home address?"

Arima Kana looked embarrassed.

"There's no way to hide this. If he really did meet that Sakurajima Mai, wouldn't he be exposed if he asked her directly?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha Road.

Arima Kana thought for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and sighed.

"That's right. Since there's no way to avoid this disaster, why not confess it yourself? Maybe you can save some money."

Having said that, she stood up directly.

"Then there's no time to lose. I'll go back and ask Jiang Qijun for clarification!"

Chapter 100 Sister, do you want money? (4k)

Let’s go back one day.

The night before, while Magana was attending a dinner party.

On the streets of Shimokitazawa.

Kurokawa Akane was wandering aimlessly on the street in the darkening sky.

Today marks the fifth month since Ryoma Ezaki disappeared. Since his disappearance, Kurokawa Akane's life has undergone tremendous changes.

First of all, in terms of work, the screen couple was forced to end their relationship after only a few days of operation, which caused the fans who came through the show to feel cheated and most of them left.

The troupe was unable to find an actress to replace Ryoma Esaki, and the dual role of her and Ryoma Esaki became a one-man show by Akane Kurokawa.

However, because of this, Kurokawa Akane received more resources from the troupe, but at the same time, the burden on her shoulders became heavier. It is not known whether this is a blessing or a curse.

The stage play of Kaguya-sama: Love is War was eventually forced to be postponed due to the vacancy of Ryoma Esaki. Hoshino Ruby and Arima Kana started idol business while waiting for the project to be restarted. Later, when the project decided to be restarted, they gave up the roles they had already obtained because they were unable to be apart from the idol side.

Kurokawa Akane's expectation of competing on the same stage with Arima Kana was not realized.
