I'm a weird expert in Japan

There is only this sentence.

Just this was enough to make Lian put in 1000% of his effort.

There is only one person who can do this, and his name is Woyan Izuko.

Perhaps she had already foreseen that she would be excluded from the "box garden", so she left a word of guidance for the face from outside the mirror world in a place full of coincidences but inevitable for her.

There is no date, which means Lian will go the day after the day she saw it.

Everything seemed to be in line with Woyan Izu Lake's plan.

Chapter 168 Chapter 1 The Ship Collided with the Bridge and Sinked Naturally ()

Lying on Lake Izu, a man who knows everything.

This omniscience is a curse received after participating in the creation of the shikigami Atonogi Yoji.

It doesn't look like a curse at all, but in the words of Izuko, "There are things that the all-knowing big sister doesn't want to know."

This curse will ignore the wishes of the person concerned and stuff everything in the world into the head.

Omniscience does not mean omnipotence.

Knowing that something is happening or is about to happen but being unable to do anything about it may be more cruel than knowing nothing at all.

When he couldn't contact her at first, Lian considered the possibility of a reversal.

When applied to Lake Izu, the most obvious change is the change from "knowing everything" to "knowing nothing", depriving her of the right to "know" everything in the world.

Now that this note was obviously placed in advance, the first thing Lian thought of was Woyan Izu Lake.

Regardless of whether it was her or not, the one who would use such a roundabout yet simple and clear hint method is none other than Woyan Izu Lake.

I didn't sign the photo or use any other method, probably because I wanted to leave as few traces as possible here.

I'm afraid that Lake Izu in the mirror world has a deeper understanding of this world than anyone else.

She also didn't want her rash actions to cause any butterfly effect.

Let this instruction be conveyed to Lian in an inconspicuous but practical way when Woyan Izu Lake is unable to interfere.

Lian still firmly believed in what happened at Woyan Izu Lake.

Moreover, as Maki had said before, several schools were holding national mock exams, with Toyonosaki and Shuchiin serving as examination venues. It would be inappropriate to enter or leave rashly during the examination period.

If it were tomorrow, after the exams were over, maybe it would be better.

"What...is this?" Shiyu's voice came.

Lian folded the note and said, "It seems that someone deliberately put a riddle note in the newspaper when borrowing it."

"Is that so..." Shiyu nodded hesitantly, as if accepting the answer.

Fortunately, the writing left after the pencil was blackened was all written in Katakana. Plus, to the people in the mirror world, it was like mirror text, so it was understandable that it was difficult to guess the content for a while.

Shiyu seemed to have no doubt about anything Lian said, and she accepted the facts as he said.

"Anyway, let's leave it at that." Lian stood up and looked at the pile of newspapers. "Did you find anything?"

"Um... no." Shiyu shook her head embarrassedly. "The newspaper only has information about the progress of the disaster and the weather forecast for the next few days."

"So it's ordinary." Lian was a little disappointed. "Then let's stop here first—"

He took a look, and in just a moment, Shiyu had finished reading the pile of newspapers.

Even though his personality has changed, his learning and reading abilities haven't changed at all.

It was so outstanding that Lian began to envy her.

"Don't you need to continue investigating?"

"It's all the same anyway." Lian actually didn't have any trust in this kind of media reports.

After dealing with the media so much, there are only a handful of them that have high enough credibility.

What's more, we are still counting on them to discover something strange.

How is it possible...

"Is that so?" Shiyu did not disagree.

So Lian and Shiyu returned the newspaper and helped the staff put it back on the cart used to recycle books.

"Aha……"

Standing next to the bookshelf, looking at the words he couldn't understand, Lian let out a deep sigh.

"Um... Is Lian-jun very tired?"

"Me? I'm fine."

Lian didn’t actually feel tired at all, she just felt like she didn’t know what to do next.

If Woyan Izu Lake (hypothetically) tells him to go to Fengzhizaki tomorrow, then he will go tomorrow.

When it comes to weird things, sometimes it’s not better to do it early than late, the right timing is also very important.

"I always feel like Lian-kun is very busy..." Shi Yu's face was full of worry, "If it's something weird, maybe I can help."

"Help?" Lian shrugged, "It's not that serious..."

Or I don't know how to make her understand this matter.

Including the fact that he is a resident of the mirror world.

If one day someone tells you that the world you live in is just a reflection of a certain world...it would be too cruel.

"really?"

"Well, it's just that I felt a little weird when I looked in the mirror recently. Maybe I was possessed by something."

Lian talked nonsense.

With his physical condition, it is impossible for him to be possessed.

If it were the Kasumigaoka Utaha that Lian knew, she would have definitely started teasing him mercilessly by now.

"Really?" 『Shiyu here』 lowered her head and began to think seriously, "That's really bad."

"Huh?" Lian was surprised.

Although she knew she had nothing to do, Shiyu's speech was very interesting.

"In Japanese, the word 'mirror' actually comes from the eyes of a snake, 'kagami'," Shiha explained worriedly. "As far as I know, mirrors have been regarded as sacred instruments that can reflect things since ancient times."

"Hey..." Lian nodded with interest.

For example, one of the three legendary sacred treasures is the Eight-foot Mirror.

Taking this into consideration, Shiyu's statement is still acceptable.

"So... if there really is a problem, Lian-kun should investigate it a little bit." Shiyu said seriously, "I will also help... although I can only look up information in the library..."

She had just expressed her willingness to help, but her mood quickly fell again.

I feel sad that all I can do is wait and see.

"That alone is amazing." Lian reached out and stroked Shiyu's head.

Under normal circumstances, he would never do this, but the "literary girl" in front of him was just like a child who was curious and confused about the world.

Before she knew it, people were treating her like a child.

"Ah..." Shiyu was stunned.

Lian took her hand away. "Anyway, it's not a big problem on my side. Anyway—"

"Anyway?" Shiyu repeated subconsciously.

"nothing……"

Lian then remembered that there were no such things as vampires in this world.

Then it would be strange to tell Shiyu that he is a vampire.

Consider the reality that you might be completely human and become an expert in weirdness.

"How strong must I be here..."

Lian walked towards the bookshelf, wanting to pick out a collection of plant specimens.

By the way, should we tell Touma Kazusa about the message that Woyan left behind at Lake Izu?

This matter made Lian feel troubled.

Just explaining the source of the information takes a lot of time...

Where should I start explaining?

His eyes narrowed into a line, and he felt troubled from the bottom of his heart.

Chapter 169 Chapter 2 The Ship Collided with the Bridge and Sinks Naturally ()

As Touma Kazusa entered the living room, she threw the bag in her hand on the floor, then collapsed weakly on the sofa.

From the morning when she went to the commercial street to the evening when she came back, she was almost always shopping without stopping.

In contrast -

"Really? Why did you leave all your things in the living room? Take a rest first, and mom will help you take them back to your room."

Touma Yoko picked up the shopping bags, went upstairs in her slippers, and didn't even ask Kazusa's opinion.

But even if she asked, Kazusa wasn't in the mood to answer.

Except for the time when she was driving, Yaozi basically wore three or four centimeter high heels when going shopping. Not only did she walk with great vigor, but she also didn't look tired at all when she got home.

Is this the fighting power that middle-aged people develop after working hard? Hesha suddenly had a nonsensical thought.

To be honest, at first she thought her mother would go shopping with Lian's sister and those strangers, but after drinking coffee, everyone went their separate ways.

Although others were a little surprised that Lian left the table without saying goodbye, no one asked any questions.

Including his sister, Shijo Shinki.

If you think about it carefully, Lian is really a bit... inhuman.

Recalling the joint actions over the past two days, Hesha chose this word to describe the four ripples for no reason.

"Inhumane...?"

Kazusa looked at the ceiling and thought it was strange that she would think this way.

It is obviously me who is unkind.

He has no friends and his mother is not around. He has been living alone for several years, with only a housekeeper who comes to take care of him regularly.

In contrast, there are always a lot of people around Lian, and they are always talking and laughing.

If I say that he is unkind, maybe someone will come and refute me.

Why on earth... ah, that's right.

Hesha suddenly realized.

"Actually, I'm a vampire."

The words he had said echoed in my ears.

Now, Hesha no longer has any doubts.

Seeing that he was injured on the back by the tiger's claws, but he seemed fine, and he took out a long sword from somewhere.

Especially those wounds, which had completely disappeared by the time he returned home with her. Not only were there no scars left, but even the damage to his clothes had disappeared.

This special non-human being, even if he looks no different from humans, is separated from others by his incomparable resilience.
