What era is it? Why are people still writing traditional diaries?

Then starting from around nine o'clock in the evening until after midnight, the girls living in Tokyo, starting with Kaguya Shinomiya, began to find a small package in their rooms.

These packages usually contain two or three volumes of comics and novels.

A comic book by Hoshino Ai, one or two novels with a random heroine or Oregairu, and maybe some special gifts.

On this basis, Komari said that she also received an extra light novel with a black cat on the cover, and it is now touching Gokou Ruri's heart in the group.

And Utaha Kasumigaoka got a game called "White Album 2".

Yotsuya Miko said helplessly that what she received were a bunch of horror movie and horror game discs labeled "Mysterious Man's Selection".

Even Rikka Takanashi, who came to Tokyo to persuade her uncle not to travel abroad during the holiday, received a package.

The ones who benefited the most from this were Pochi and Hoshino Ai. In addition, they also received several animation discs of works by other idols and bands. They are now studying these works to learn from the experiences of those bands and idol groups.

Among them, perhaps only Miyano Shiho, who is in the research institute and surrounded by surveillance cameras everywhere, did not receive the "gift". However, the other party has not spoken in the group yet, and everyone cannot confirm the situation on her side.

Apart from that, the only person who was confused about the contents of the package she received was Tsukimi Eiko.

Because in addition to the two standard works, she also received a hardcover Chinese version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Why did you put a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms in my place?" Tsukimi Eiko asked in the chat group.

Then Yukinoshita Yukino quickly replied: "Perhaps it's because your name contains the two Chinese characters 'Yue Ying'. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this was the name of Zhuge Kongming's wife."

Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to have thought of something, and continued to explain to Tsukimi Eiko: "Perhaps your story will only begin after you meet a descendant of Zhuge Kongming. Perhaps a lot of people related to the Three Kingdoms will appear around you, and you will start a modern version of the story of the Three Kingdoms in the modern era?"

"After all, when the mysterious man mentioned you before, he mentioned that something quite serious might happen to you. Before this, the mysterious man had never shown such an attitude."

"So, it's best for you to read more of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that the mysterious person gave you. At least you should learn more about Shu Han and the deeds of Zhuge Kongming. It might be useful in your future."

Since the mysterious man didn't mention anything about Tsukimi Eiko again, this was all she could think of.

After all, they had never come into contact with heroic spirits, and they could never have imagined that it was Prime Minister Zhuge who traveled through thousands of years to come to the present world and had a connection with Yuejian Yingzi.

Yukinoshita Yukino said this while silently calculating in her mind.

So far, many people in the group have said that they have obtained the "Oregairu", which is "the original work of Yukinoshita Yukino". In total, the mysterious person has given away more than ten volumes tonight, almost collecting all her original works.

This made her feel a little relieved.

At least her original works fell into the hands of these girls who also had diaries, so she didn't have to worry about them being seen by other irrelevant people, let alone worrying about the embarrassing situation that happened to Kasumigaoka Utaha on her side.

As for these girls...the mysterious man has posted their works more than once when he was increasing the word count in his diary. As long as it is not a punishment live broadcast to the extent of Shinomiya Kaguya, Yukinoshita Yukino feels that this level will not make her feel too embarrassed.

She could even now record the approximate time everyone received the comics according to the instructions of the girls in the group, and confirmed that this time there should be only one person delivering the packages little by little from the center of Tokyo along a pre-planned route.

Since it seems that everyone’s comics have been delivered almost completely, they probably won’t be delivered to Chiba.

Yukinoshita Yukino felt a little regretful about this, but she didn't take it too seriously.

At least compared to those diary owners living in Kyoto or even further away, Chiba had Jerry's visit, which helped them improve their strength a lot.

"So when the mysterious man went out to explore the ruins, he didn't take Jerry with him, but left him in Tokyo?" Yukinoshita Yukino thought.

Could it be that the mysterious man’s current strength means he no longer needs to worry about the dangers that may arise when he comes into contact with those alien relics?

Or are the so-called "visiting ruins" and "attending art exhibitions" all just things written by a mysterious person to fool people?

After all, no one knows whether the mysterious man really investigated any ruins. As for the art exhibition, the opening date had been announced long ago. Even if the mysterious man did not attend, no one would know.

Until now, Yukinoshita Yukino still believes in her own judgment: since the birth ages of these "heroines" are similar, the mysterious time traveler is most likely a high school student of similar age to them, and the oldest cannot be over 18 years old.

"Perhaps the mysterious man brought Jerry along to distribute the diary tonight. The mysterious man moved Jerry around Tokyo, and then Jerry, who has some storage skills, sneaked into everyone's room, put the package on the table when they weren't paying attention, and then left."

"But the mysterious person should have a way to know the location of us girls who have diaries. Otherwise, Rikka only arrived in Tokyo yesterday afternoon, and the mysterious person couldn't have known her current location so quickly."

The one who has similar ideas to Yukinoshita Yukino is Kasumigaoka Utaha.

As one of the people in the group who was most persecuted by the mysterious man, she had naturally been recording the mysterious man's movements, wanting to take this opportunity to find his whereabouts.

As for the novels about the passerby heroine, were they dispersed?

She really doesn't care about this.

After all, the story of the passerby heroine has almost been completely watered down by the mysterious guy.

Even the complete set of animation was delivered directly to Shiina Mashiro tonight, with a blessing message attached, which was not known to be written by a mysterious person himself: "I hope your comics will be released soon."

So much so that Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't even count how many copies of the novel with the random heroine had been sent out.

Even if the novel about the passerby heroine now falls into the hands of the real passerby heroine Kato Megumi, she will not have any special emotions.

Even if the mysterious man really did this, what else could she do? At worst, she could just get Kato Megumi into the group. After all, the other party has a good relationship with Shiina Mashiro and Miyauchi Mitsuka.

But Iris will probably be furious.

After all, ever since she knew that the heroine of the novel version of "The Passerby Girlfriend" was Kato Megumi, she didn't take Kato Megumi seriously the first few times she met her. But as she got to know her more, she slowly discovered that Kato Megumi was not as inconspicuous as she imagined. Instead, she was the kind of girl who was slow to warm up and became more and more easily addicted as time went on. She had already become wary of Kato Megumi.

From time to time, I would pass by the other class to check on Kato Megumi.

Kasumigaoka Utaha thought so and shook her head.

It’s better not to think about Eriri. Even if Kato Megumi hadn’t appeared, she would still be a loser in this life. Who told this woman to lose several laps at the starting line?

Since we are already used to the persecution of the mysterious man, let’s focus on Kaguya Shinomiya now.

After all, after the statistics, the other party found a few more comics of Kaguya-sama: Love is War in the hands of Hoshino Ai and Yotsuya Miko, but overall there were still five volumes missing.

"If the mysterious man has sent out all the packages, does that mean that five volumes of the comics have been sent to other people?" With the help of the girls in the group, Kaguya Shinomiya, who also completed the "Mysterious Man Delivery Route Map", looked at the map and began to think.

"Chika just called me and said she has a few extra comics featuring her, me, and Hayasaka. So, did the mysterious person split up the comics and distribute them to the people around me?"

Listening to Fujiwara Chika's description, the contents of the comics she received were very fragmented, as if all the places in the comics where Fujiwara Chika's role was concentrated were gathered together, and then deleted into the kind of daily comics where you can't tell the plot.

Shinomiya Kaguya has asked Hayasaka Ai to go to the Fujiwara family to pick up Chika Fujiwara and the comics she received. When Chika comes, she will know the specific situation of the comics in her hands.

Now, Kaguya Shinomiya recorded the time when Chika obtained those comics on the timetable.

After doing all this, she found that the original delivery route on the map, which seemed to be a little roundabout and took a lot more time, suddenly became much more reasonable.

Perhaps this method can be used to find several other less reasonable routes, and then from the area between these routes, find the residences of people related to her, and thus roughly analyze to whom the mysterious person may have sent the remaining comics.

Shinomiya Kaguya thought so, and then immediately used her brain to start analyzing.

Through this analysis, she quickly identified one or two other routes that might be problematic.

One of the routes passes through the wealthy area of ​​Beika Town. If the mysterious man had not taken the initiative to bypass Beika Town, this garbage dump of the other world, then the person most likely to get the comics on this route would be a member of the Shijo family, the restless branch of the Shinomiya family.

"Is it that little girl from Shijo Shinki?"

Shinomiya Kaguya and Shijo Maki, who are two generations older than each other, have family reasons. Although they both went to school at Shuchiin since childhood and were classmates in the same grade, they almost never actively interact with each other. At most, they compete secretly in terms of academic performance.

Of course, she is always better.

However, after obtaining the diary, Kaguya Shinomiya no longer cared about these things.

Even though she had just glanced through the beginning and end of her comics and found that although the main reason for the decline of the Shinomiya family was indeed her father's illness, the Shijo family seemed to have also been involved in a lot of tricks. Shinomiya Kaguya only felt a little dissatisfied with the Shijo family in her heart.

But I still have no ill feelings towards Shijo Shinki.

After all, who would hate a girl who makes her first appearance in a comic, doesn't even have a single line of dialogue or name, and already becomes a love loser?

She was flipping through the comics and came across the scene where Shijo Shinki had lifeless and tearful eyes, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

It turns out that the little girl is secretly in love with the young master of the Tanuma family. How interesting.

"But if the comics really fall into the hands of the Shijo family, perhaps we can take this opportunity to warn the Shijo family in advance to prevent them from making any moves behind the scenes."

"Besides that... there might be something wrong with this line."

Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the map in her hand.

However, the area in the middle of the other line seems to be a civilian area, and I haven't heard of any girls holding diaries there.

So, is it another character that has appeared in the comics, or one of the second batch of girls who got the diary?

It will take time for Kaguya Shinomiya to verify this.

If it is the second group of girls, then go and find their whereabouts to see if you can get the reward.

If it was any other character that appeared in the comics... then there's no need to worry about it. Just use the excuse that someone in Shuchiin wants to discredit her and use the power of the Shinomiya family to forcibly take back these comics.

Even if those people might be the main characters in the comics.

Kaguya Shinomiya couldn't understand her own inexplicable behavior in the comics, and Hayasaka Ai also said that she couldn't imagine what kind of man could make her become as stupid as in the comics.

Perhaps it was because she had not yet been affected by the demeaning halo called "love."

Even if she quickly flipped through these comics, it would be difficult for her to reconstruct how the mentality of "Kaguya Shinomiya" in the comics, who looked like herself, changed in the next year.

After all, the comics don’t mention much about this plot, and it’s completely incoherent.

It's just like in the comics, where she was the familiar self in the previous moment, and the next moment, time jumped, and she had already fallen for the other party's serious and gentle attitude and turned into a young girl in love. There was no transition stage in between.

However, after staying in the chat group for a long time, Kaguya Shinomiya learned a lot of things.

For example, Komari has previously complained about many shortcomings of school manga in the group, saying, "Although the male protagonists of many school manga don't do anything special, they rely on their so-called 'gentleness and thoughtfulness' to win the hearts of a lot of beautiful girls, but who can blame them for being the male protagonist? With this identity as the protagonist, they are naturally likable."

To this end, Koumaro also brought up the story of Katsura Kotonoha, who had begun to practice Iaikendo again, as an argument.

"Look at that Ito Makoto over there with Kotonoha. He's probably still secretly using Kotonoha's photo as his wallpaper on his phone. He's such a jerk who's incompetent and has no strong will. There are a lot of girls at Kotonoha's school who have a crush on him and are trying to isolate him."

This happened because Kaguya Shinomiya hired a detective to keep an eye on Ito Makoto, and Katsura Kotonoha occasionally talked about some of her school affairs in the group, which attracted the attention of the girls in the group.

It was also because of this that the girls in the group realized that there really was such a man in this world who seemed to be introverted and had done nothing, but could become the secret crush of a group of girls.

Maybe this is what is called the protagonist's halo.

Now it seems that there is a similar plot in her comic.

As the heroine, she fell in love with the hero without any twists and turns as arranged by the script.

It’s just that the male protagonist is not a scumbag like Makoto Ito.

But in the final chapter of the comic, not only is she completely unable to empathize with the "self" in the comic, she can't even see any "talent" in the male protagonist that is worthy of her attention.

The cartoonist with "astonishing wisdom" who created her and Hoshino Ai was only pulled out and criticized once or twice by a mysterious person. It turned out that the mysterious person was too restrained.

Originally, Kaguya Shinomiya had already decided that her future would not stay in Shuchiin, and was ready to completely overturn her original script.

After reading these comics, she became even more certain of this matter.

She doesn't need any male protagonist in her future.

Even the mysterious man is no exception.

Then the next moment, in the chat group that was still lively at twelve o'clock in the morning, Shiho Miyano, who had been silent all night, finally spoke.

"It seems that the mysterious man has rescued my sister. A recent photo of my sister was found on my bed. On the back of the photo, it tells me to hurry up and leave the organization before they find me."

After seeing this sentence, Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly felt her fists harden.

This was clearly the talent she had reserved, so how come he was suddenly snatched away by that mysterious guy!

Chapter 168: Spatial Fluctuations in the Mountains

That night, many girls who had diaries stayed up very late, and finally at two or three in the morning, they waited until Shiho Miyano sent a message in the group saying that she had safely escaped from the institute.

A living person escaped from the institute quietly at night, bypassing the tightly guarded surveillance and security.

It can be imagined that after this night, the other people in this research institute probably had a bad sleep.

However, according to Shiho Miyano, she seemed to have received help from a mysterious person in the process of leaving the institute. At least when she encountered the institute's surveillance equipment, she did not trigger the warning in the diary. She only needed to avoid the security guards and then successfully escaped from the institute through a garbage passage inside the institute.

Although Kaguya Shinomiya was muttering in her heart, the mysterious man took over everything she wanted to do without saying a word.

He helped rescue his sister and also helped Miyano Shiho turn off the surveillance.

I guess Shiho Miyano’s liking for the mysterious man has reached its limit now.

Fortunately, given the mysterious man's personality, he will definitely not take the initiative to appear in front of Miyano Shiho to reveal his identity, and he should not help Miyano Shiho arrange a way out after escaping from the organization.

At this point, Kaguya Shinomiya has the ability to participate.

Anyway, no matter how the mysterious man rescued Miyano Akemi, it does not mean that the sisters will have to be protected by the Shinomiya family for a long time in the future to avoid being wanted and hunted by that "brewery".

With this favor, even if I can't completely win over Miyano Shiho like before, I can maintain a cooperative relationship for a long time.
