Tokyo Soft Rice King

"Because I really haven't seen it! I haven't even seen a photo! Do you think this is normal? If Dad really died, she should have left a photo!"

This is indeed a bit extreme.

When a husband passes away, generally people will keep a photo of him. After all, they still have to pay tribute to him, and it also allows the children to see their father whom they have never met.

Is there something else hidden here?

"Oh... I see. You suspect that Aunt Qiuzi is hiding something from you. In fact, your father didn't die in an accident when you were a child. Maybe they just got divorced?"

"More than that... I now suspect that I may not have a father..."

"Ah? No, how could you not have a father? If you didn't have a father, then how were you born?"

Wouldn't Xiao Niaoyou even have basic health and physical education knowledge in the future? That shouldn't be the case, right? She's already in high school...

"No! Ming, you're an idiot! What I mean is, my mother doesn't even have a husband! I'm not her biological daughter!"

"Oh... I see. You mean you were picked up?"

"That's too harsh... You're saying that I might have been adopted, but I'm definitely not my mother's biological child. And this might be related to her not wanting me to be a voice actor."

"I see. I think I understand your thinking. Do you think that because you're not Aunt Qiuzi's biological daughter, she doesn't want you to inherit her business?"

"Hmm...what else? Mom clearly loves voice acting, but she doesn't allow me to enter the industry...If she really loves me, she wouldn't stop me from becoming a voice actor..."

Hei Yuming crossed his arms and thought for a while. He felt that he could not rule out this possibility, but he also felt that this was not like Aunt Akiko's style.

"Actually, these are just my guesses... I don't know the details, so I decided not to go to school anymore."

"You want to protest by not going to school and force Aunt Qiuzi to tell you the truth?"

Mirai Takanashi nodded. This was the reason why she chose to be a stay-at-home mom.

She wanted to find out about her own background.

"That's about right... Another reason is that if I don't become a voice actor, I don't know what I'll do in the future."

Then there were her personal reasons.

"Because my mom doesn't have any special requirements for me, and she doesn't particularly care about my academic performance, so she doesn't restrict me from playing games..."

"Isn't that nice? How freeing."

I wonder how many students wish their parents would adopt this kind of laissez-faire approach to education.

"That's fine... but I'd feel really uneasy."

"disturbed?"

"Well... because I only have a mom, no dad, and no brothers or sisters, so the family will have to rely on me from now on..."

"what……"

Hei Yuming felt empathy again.

He understood this feeling very well, it was exactly the same as his thoughts in his previous life.

I am the only one in the family, and I am the sole breadwinner. I have to stand up for myself and find a way to make money...and then I become a pathetic office worker.

Because family is his only concern.

"So even though I didn't know what I would do in the future, I still relied on my own efforts to get into Hibiya High School... Honestly, it felt like I had read all the books I would ever need to read..."

So actually, Mirai Kotori is completely different from her style of dressing. She is a super good kid! Not rebellious at all!

It's not only about thinking about my mother and my family, but also about the "future".

What a good girl indeed.

"But it also made me realize that as long as I'm willing to work hard, I can still get into even the most difficult school..."

Although Japan focuses on happy education, as I said before, the competition for admission to good high schools and universities is quite fierce.

Especially in the Tokyo area, the pressure to enter higher education should be similar to that in China, so the fact that she was able to rely on her own strength to be admitted to Hibiya High School, a high school with a high deviation value, shows that she has indeed put a lot of effort into her studies.

However, the difference from my hometown is that not everyone in high school in Neon wants to go to college.

Because in Japan, going to college is a "very expensive" thing. Not every family can afford the tuition, especially for private universities, where the tuition is jaw-droppingly high.

And it doesn’t mean that you will definitely find a good job after going to college. Sometimes, college graduates may not be as good as professionals who entered the society earlier.

Then, when she said this, Kotori Mirai's eyes became even more confused.

"But...what then? After graduating from university? Joining an ordinary company and doing a job I don't like? Then, I definitely won't be able to make as much money as Mom does, right?

"What if I work hard and find out that my income is not as good as the pocket money my mom gives me? Then I will definitely be devastated and become a neet..."

"Since I'm going to be a NEET anyway, I might as well start now... I'm just bringing forward the process."

It turned out to be the case.

This is the disadvantage of having a mother who is a national voice actress.

Her mother is too famous and too powerful. She has been admiring such a powerful mother since she was a child and wanted to become a voice actor. But now she is rejected by the mother she admires the most, so Kotori will fall into endless confusion in the future.

It is probably because of this that she was immediately fascinated by the decisive Ziyin.

The main reason is that, apart from being a voice actor, she can't think of what else she can do or what she wants to do.

So this is Hei Yuming's plug-in field.

Don’t know what you want to do?

I can give you inspiration!

Show me your talent!

I will definitely show you a clear path!

Hei Yuming once again used his palm reading tricks on Kotori with the intention of discovering a talent.

"I understand everything... Then let me help you read your palm."

"Huh? Palmistry?"

Mirai Takanashi looked puzzled, not understanding why Kuroba Akira suddenly mentioned palm reading.

"That's right, don't you know what you can do in the future? Then let me guide you! I'm really good at palm reading. It was after I read her palm that Shion firmly embarked on the path of voice acting!"

Since Takanashi has become a little fan of Shion, Hei Yuming will naturally use her as a breakthrough point to deceive people.

"real or fake……"

"Really! So hold out your right hand, and I'll show you the 'future'!"

"It always feels suspicious... Never mind, I'll show it to you..."

Takanashi Mirai stretched out her right hand doubtfully.

Kuroba Akira finally recognized her talent.

【Network Anchor S】

【Esports A】

【Clip A】

what?

There is S-level!

And with two A's!

The most important thing is that these three are complementary!

I see, no wonder it's so entertaining when playing games...

In the future, Xiao Niaoyou will be a natural-born anchor!

Chapter 209: Seeing the Future in the Future

This talent combination is truly unbeatable.

However, precisely because he was so invincible, Hei Yuming frowned in sorrow, held up his forehead, and revealed a bitter face.

As the person having her palm read, Mirai Takanashi felt uneasy when she saw the person who was reading her palm making such an expression, even though she didn't believe it.

"What's wrong? You look so constipated... Is it because my palms are bad?"

Hei Yuming shook his head and sighed depressedly before speaking.

"Oh... no... your palm reading is quite good, or should I say, very good, but how should I put it, it feels like 'it's not the right time yet'."

"What the hell? You fortune tellers really like to tell riddles. Explain it to me a little more clearly! What do you mean by 'not yet time'? What will happen to me in the future?"

"Don't worry, let me think about how to tell you."

It’s not that Hei Yuming doesn’t want to make it clear, it’s just that he really can’t explain to the future “things that will happen in the future”.

Unlike when he met Ziyin, Hei Yuming had only one thought after seeing these three talents in the future...

That's what a pity!

It’s really a pity!

Born at the wrong time! Little Bird is swimming in the future!

Because the most important of her three talents, being a host, is completely useless in this world of Neon.

As mentioned before, the Japanese in this world are still using flip phones, 3G internet speeds are not fast enough, WIFI is not yet popular, and even videotapes have not been eliminated yet.

In this era when not everyone has a smartphone, watching online videos is not the main form of entertainment for everyone. At least in Japan, TV programs still have an overwhelming viewership rate.

In fact, in the original world, there are still many people in the strange country of Neon who use button-type flip phones. This is the "inertia of the times" caused by entering modernization too early.

However, in this world, this is not limited to neon.

But it's like this all over the world.

The reason why people don’t use smartphones is not because they don’t want to use them, but because there is no use for them!

Because the technological level of this world is generally one level behind the world before Hei Yuming traveled through time.

It feels like around the 2000s.

And Hei Yuming finally figured out why this deviation occurred.

In fact, to be precise, the world as a whole is "fifteen years behind."

Why fifteen years?

Because Kuroba Akira is fifteen years old.

And the Hei Yuming in his previous life, also known as Bai Yuming, just turned thirty years old.

The difference is fifteen years.

When he first crossed over, Hei Yuming thought that he had become younger, but in fact it was not the case.

Earlier, Hei Yuming had a similar guess, until he got some confirmation from Sister Hong and learned that Sister Hong in her previous life, Tian Hongxiang, was 39 years old, he completely confirmed his guess.

Because the current Tashiro Hongxiang is 24 years old, which is exactly 39 years younger than the 15-year-old Hongjie in her previous life.

So it’s not that these time travelers have become younger, but rather that they are just this age in this world.

Although the calendar says 2024, in reality, this world should be equivalent to 2009 in the previous life.

Travel to another world, Tokyo 2009!

This is the truth!

So if it was 09, it would be exactly like it is now.

We have not yet fully entered the era of traffic with information explosion.

At a time when communication network speeds have not yet entered the era of high-speed traffic, watching videos on mobile phones is still "very uncomfortable".

Can you tolerate watching videos on a screen the size of two coins, which is not only of low resolution but also has laggy playback?

So people in this world think that watching videos on mobile phones is stupid.

Therefore, the form of "live broadcast" is also limited by the communication speed and has not yet been recognized by the public.

In fact, live broadcasting already existed at that time, but it was still mainly based on the PC side, mainly in chat room mode, YY voice and the like, and mainly focused on show live broadcasting.

The live streaming industry really began to rise around 12. With the rise of live streaming platforms, game anchors began to appear.
