The Hungry Rize Kamishiro

She could finally test out the Kusanagi-ryu Ancient Martial Arts she had just learned.

But she also knew in her heart that the so-called Bandage Freak was actually a prisoner in disguise, and that the prisoner was already in jail and would never get out.

But deep down, the girl still hoped that something unexpected would happen during the filming process.

Then, as darkness fell, the group finally arrived at the mountain villa located in the suburbs at dusk.

The villa, where a murder occurred just a month ago, remains exactly as it was, except for a thorough cleaning to ensure there is no smell of blood inside.

"Although there have been cases here, if we film too late tonight, it shouldn't be a problem to sleep here for the night," Suzuki Sonoko, the host, welcomed everyone.

Then she pointed to the chain bridge she had crossed earlier. "And we've reinforced that bridge, so it shouldn't be cut down again under normal circumstances."

Miyauchi Hiyage felt that this infatuated girl was setting a flag for herself.

He recalled a particular episode of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

Bored on the deserted Haruhi Suzumiya, in order to satisfy her desire to solve cases, fabricated a case. Even though it was later explained that it was all a fake case, it still hinted that Haruhi Suzumiya seemed to have really done something extraordinary on that island.

Even though the lively Haruhi Suzumiya by his side was a scaled-down version, he still felt that tonight's filming was bound to run into problems.

Miyauchi Hiyage's idea was correct.

After casually finishing dinner and starting to film, it suddenly started raining.

Moreover, judging from this trend, it seems that the rain will only get heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping.

Chapter 244: Kamishiro Rize

"The weather was roughly like this on the day of the incident. It started raining at dusk, and the perpetrator sent a warning to the victim around that time. When the rain subsided a little, he threatened the victim to come outside the villa for a talk."

Inside the villa, Suzuki Sonoko was talking animatedly in the hall.

Although she was drugged by a primary school student at the time, and after waking up, she unknowingly uncovered the truth of the case and caught the real culprit, she still learned more about the whole process of the case afterward to ensure that she would not be embarrassed if asked about it again.

As for why I have no recollection of it at the time?

Don't ask, the answer is simply the detective spirit within me, after all, that's what Mouri Kogoro thinks too.

Miyauchi Hiyage has already obtained a more complete account of the case from Conan and Ran, and he has even watched this episode no less than ten times.

After all, he had previously obtained the first 1000 episodes of Detective Conan through his diary, and if he wanted, he could have collected all the cases Conan would encounter in the next few years.

However, Miyauchi Hiyage has no interest in being a famous detective. These things can be left to Sakakibara Kouichi and the others to figure out themselves. Besides, they have Haruhi Suzumiya to help them out.

Since Haruhi Suzumiya wants to usurp power, he will give her that opportunity.

He was just standing by the window, looking at the desolate scene of wind and rain outside.

Shinomiya Kaguya then appeared at his side at just the right time.

She originally came to improve her relationship with Miyauchi Hiyage, and testing Miyauchi Hiyage was only a minor reason among them.

Regardless of Miyauchi Hiyage's true identity, her decision to invest in Miyauchi Hiyage will not change.

Even if Miyauchi Hiyage really becomes a so-called "harem man," so what?

Shinomiya Kaguya no longer has the desire for romance, nor is she willing to lose her rationality for the sake of so-called love.

She is now solely focused on seizing control of the Shinomiya Family and ensuring that the Shinomiya Family can maintain its foothold in the Reverse Side World during this era of Mystery Revival.

Even if it means sacrificing herself, it's fine as long as she gets enough in return.

If Miyauchi Hiyage really wants these things, what's wrong with giving them to him?

The offspring of Miyauchi Hiyage, possessing superior genes, should have a much higher probability of awakening extraordinary abilities than others.

Moreover, among all the people she has met so far, there is indeed no one more outstanding than Miyauchi Hiyage.

Unfortunately, although she had an impeccable appearance, the girls who appeared around Miyauchi Hiyage were not much less attractive than her, and in fact, their figures were much better.

On Asahigaoka, there are two childhood friends, and on Tokyo, there are the Shiina sisters and Tohru from another world.

In any case, Shinomiya Kaguya had absolutely no sense that Miyauchi Hiyage had ever felt any particular desire for her.

However, Shinomiya Kaguya was originally unwilling to use the method of using her beauty to amuse people, and the way she interacts with Miyauchi Hiyage is quite good.

It's better than Katsura Kotonoha, that woman who clearly wants to learn swordsmanship from Miyauchi Hiyage, but because of her misogyny, she doesn't want to interact with men and only dares to spy on them from afar, and is now almost turning into a voyeur.

"You don't seem to be in a good mood?"

Shinomiya Kaguya softly asked Miyauchi Hiyage.

The response she received was from Miyauchi Hiyage's colorful eyes.

Did he use the power of his eyes?

He must have seen something.

Shinomiya Kaguya paused for a moment, then saw Miyauchi Hiyage pull a deck of cards from his pocket, unfold it, and turn it face down towards her.

"Shall we pick one out and see?"

Shinomiya Kaguya didn't hesitate much and randomly picked one out.

Looking at the black Joker in her hand, Shinomiya Kaguya blinked, surprised that she had drawn the Joker on her first try.

"Is there a reason for suddenly wanting to draw this?" Shinomiya Kaguya returned the little king to Miyauchi Hiyage.

"Just testing what troubles we might encounter tonight," Miyauchi Hiyage Himakage said calmly.

Shinomiya Kaguya's expression immediately turned serious.

Is it because of Haruhi Suzumiya?

Should I contact the Jujutsu High?

"Let's get in touch, but it's probably too late. However, I don't feel any threat, and I should be able to handle it on my own."

Upon hearing Miyauchi Hiyage's words, Shinomiya Kaguya seemed to have thought of something and quickly said, "Wait for me."

She had brought a bag with her before, and in less than two minutes, she brought out a finely crafted katana.

"This is the Nichirin Blades I promised you before. It was just forged yesterday, and I came here in person today to hand it over to you."

Miyauchi Hiyage's gaze swept over the sword in Shinomiya Kaguya's hand, and the Projection Magic automatically began to analyze it.

Although it's not a high-end item and doesn't provide any experience bonus, it should work quite well when combined with Ripple Chi Kung and Kusanagi Style swordsmanship.

For a long time to come, this thing will likely be considered his "Gan Jiang and Mo Xie" – his most convenient consumables.

Recording the data of the sword, Miyauchi Hiyage maintained his Ripple Breathing and drew the Nichirin Blades, forged using both modern and classical techniques, from the scabbard in Shinomiya Kaguya's hand.

The power of the sun seeps into the blade from the hilt.

A flash of silver light appeared on the sword's surface, the effect of Silver Ripple Overdrive, which activated the sword's state.

However, with the influx of enhancement magic, the blade was quickly replaced by a deep crimson color, and even Shinomiya Kaguya could feel the intense heat emanating from the Nichirin Blades Blade after the Miyauchi Hiyage gripped the hilt.

If you pour a glass of water onto the blade, it would probably evaporate completely in just a few seconds.

"This is... Crimson Blade?" Shinomiya Kaguya widened slightly.

She knew how talented Miyauchi Hiyage; in just over ten days, he had already completed the training of the Sun Breathing Sword Style and even made some adjustments to it to better suit himself.

But isn't it a bit too outrageous to activate the Crimson Blade right from the start?

She tried for a long time and only managed to slightly change the color of the Nichirin Blades, and even then, she could only make it change towards a bluer color.

Miyauchi Hiyage tried it out a bit. Although she wasn't quite used to it yet, it worked fine for normal use. She just needed to get used to it for a while.

He deactivated the Crimson Blade and sheathed the Nichirin Blades.

Then he looked at Shinomiya Kaguya.

She only obtained enough materials to make a Nichirin Blades from the Ubuyashiki Family, and gave the Nichirin Blades to him. She probably won't be able to get her own Nichirin Blades for a long time to come.

This woman is smart enough to be determined to stay by my side, so I should show her something new.

As Miyauchi Hiyage gathered Mana in his hand, he stored the Nichirin Blades into Unlimited Blade Works, much to Shinomiya Kaguya's astonishment. Then, amidst a burst of particle effects, he quickly projected two identical Nichirin Blades into his hand.

"Take this. The Spiritual Power inside should last for one or two months with normal use. Don't worry about it. Just come back to me if it breaks."

Shinomiya Kaguya blankly accepted one of the Nichirin Blades.

She observed them carefully, but seemed to find no difference between them.

"Is this... is this some kind of special technique?"

"It can probably be called a 'Projection Technique,' and it should be a unique ability of mine. Although it is a fake, you can treat this projected Nichirin Blades as the real thing until the Spiritual Power I left behind is exhausted."

"However, I'm not very familiar with this technique yet. Once I'm more familiar with it, I should be able to adjust this Nichirin Blades to a size that's more suitable for you. Of course, remember to keep this ability a secret for me."

With his Unlimited Blade Works proficiency maxed out, Miyauchi Hiyage already possesses a powerful ability to analyze and modify. He has recorded the materials used in Nichirin Blades and the forging techniques, and without needing to add the user's experience, he can indeed "forge" entirely new weapons in Unlimited Blade Works according to his own will.

However, this Nichirin Blades itself was designed for battles against cursed spirits, and it was infused with Cursed Energy metal, so it already meets Miyauchi Hiyage's needs and does not require further modification.

That's enough for now.

Let's see if Shinomiya Kaguya will reveal her 'Projection Technique' in the Chat Group. If she does, then she can continue using these basic versions.

If the other party can keep it a secret, we can provide her with some simple upgrades after her Nichirin Blades expires.

Shinomiya Kaguya, holding the projected Nichirin Blades, watched as Miyauchi Hiyage seemed about to go out and deal with the so-called "trouble." She quickly reminded Miyauchi Hiyage, "Why don't you let someone with Jujutsu High handle it?"

Miyauchi Hiyage waved his hand.

"By the time you finish your call, I'll have almost finished dealing with things. Just tell them that you encountered a fleeing ghoul and have dealt with it, and then have the Jujutsu High come and take the ghoul away."

"In short, I'll have to trouble you to help deal with those two women."

Ghouls?

Shinomiya Kaguya certainly knew about ghouls. For the past two weeks, the most exciting thing in Tokyo 'Reverse Side World has been finding those ghouls who indiscriminately harmed humans.

For the past two weeks, whenever she went to a remote place, she would rely entirely on the map function of her Diary, fearing that she might encounter any fleeing ghouls along the way.

Furthermore, the You Know Who mentioned ghouls yesterday, stating that these ghouls most likely came from another world.

Even though she knew that the holy sword that almost killed Tohru was Miyauchi Hiyage's trump card, she was still somewhat nervous about going to Miyauchi Hiyage a ghoul from another world.

But Miyauchi Hiyage simply climbed out of the window and walked into the darkness, seemingly not taking the ghoul seriously at all.

Seeing that the rainwater turned into steam before it even hit Miyauchi Hiyage, Shinomiya Kaguya could do was report the matter to the Jujutsu High, just as Miyauchi Hiyage had instructed.

She turned around and looked towards the hall.

The infatuated second young lady of the Suzuki Family was still there, enthusiastically recounting how she discovered the criminal's flaws and deciphered the methods he used in the crime.

Even though there's a room between them, you can still hear each other's voices from here.

"How enviable..." Shinomiya Kaguya shook her head slightly.

There are only two daughters in the direct line of the Suzuki Family in this generation, and there are no future disputes over inheritance of the family property.

In Japan, large conglomerates are actually more likely to have daughters.

Because the sons they raise themselves may not be outstanding, but if they have daughters, they can choose suitable sons-in-law according to their own requirements.

Moreover, I've heard that the current head of the Suzuki Family dotes on his daughters and is even willing to let both of them pursue their own happiness, even if it means spending another ten years or so raising his grandchildren.

Comparing the two conglomerates, Kaguya Shinomiya Kaguya sighed as she recalled the scheming and backstabbing within the Shinomiya Family.

If she and Suzuki Sonoko were to switch lives, even without the Diary, she would probably be able to start taking over the affairs of the Suzuki Conglomerate by now.

But thinking about the love-obsessed character she portrayed in the manga, Shinomiya Kaguya fell into a subtle silence.

Without the Diary, her performance after the second year of high school didn't seem to be much better than Suzuki Sonoko's...

Putting these worries aside, and knowing that she was no longer the person she used to be, Shinomiya Kaguya took out her phone and contacted the Jujutsu High to explain her situation.

Meanwhile, after leaving the villa, Miyauchi Hiyage further released the seal on himself and dealt with the Vengeful Spirit that had inexplicably gathered around him.

As expected of Haruhi Suzumiya, she managed to create so many Vengeful Spirit in this remote mountain area.

However, because of his Pure Yang Body, these weak vengeful Vengeful Spirit dared not approach the villa and could only wander outside.

Unexpectedly, Haruhi Suzumiya not only created a bunch of Vengeful Spirit, but also guided a ghoul that shouldn't be here under normal circumstances to appear in this place.

Moreover, through the Eyes of Destiny's observation, the purple-haired ghoul seemed to be an old acquaintance.

"The living Kamishiro Rize... which means that the storyline over there hasn't even started yet, and these ghouls have already been transferred to this world?"

Miyauchi Hiyage observed the woman who had caused everything to begin.

He was indeed good-looking, but he looked somewhat disheveled.
