Utaha Kasumigaoka Is a Lucky Layabout / Utaha Kasumigaoka's Suspicions ...

However, given that her relationship with Miyauchi Hiyage seemed to be merely a superficial ambiguity, in the end she could only subtly remind Miyauchi Hiyage not to be too fickle by mentioning the names of Shiina Mashiro and Miyauchi Hiyage's two childhood friends from his hometown.

Chapter 265: Kasumigaoka Utaha is a Winner Who Doesn't Strike.

Although Haruhi Suzumiya hasn't actually done anything to Shinomiya Kaguya yet, there has already been a victim because of Haruhi Suzumiya's existence.

That was Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was at home watching online videos while gossiping in a group chat.

Although Kasumigaoka Utaha is considered an aloof beauty at school, she is actually just as much of a homebody as Eriri Spencer Sawamura when she's at home.

She, Eriri Spencer Sawamura, Doma Umaru are all similar types of people: they are excellent students at school, but only at home do they fully unleash their true nature.

However, Eriri Spencer Sawamura is an R18 doujinshi creator, Umaru was spoiled into becoming a couch potato by her older brother, and she prefers surfing the internet.

Especially after acquiring the Ripple Chi Kung, which reduced her sleep time to less than five hours, she spent all the extra time online, averaging going to bed around one or two in the morning every night.

Although tomorrow is Monday, the group chat is still very lively.

Besides complaining that the You Know Who has been doing nothing lately, only using up his stockpiled comics and novels to pad out his word count, this You Know Who is also a serial writer who never updates his work.

Besides the works that have already been distributed to the girls, the You Know Who has many works that have not been distributed. A few days ago, he released a few chapters of "The Weak Character Tomozaki-kun", and in the past few days, he released a volume of "Hyouka". Today, he also released half of "I Want to Eat Your Pancreas".

Although these are all stories originally told by the girls in the group, the content shared is enough to help the girls in the group get to know each other better.

But each time he only posts a little bit, and then he just digs a hole and doesn't bother to fill it, leaving a few of the novel-loving guys in the group feeling stuck and on the verge of switching sides to the anti -You Know Who camp.

However, there wasn't much discussion about the You Know Who tonight. Instead, the focus was more on the incident Yotsuya Miko and Miyauchi Hiyage went out on a mission together and encountered Mai Sakurajima had awakened her extraordinary abilities and was going berserk.

This wasn't the first time Miyauchi Hiyage had displayed her power in the group chat, but from Yotsuya Miko's perspective, Miyauchi Hiyage's image inevitably became somewhat ethereal.

After walking around the city for a while and looking around with those shining eyes, I found Mai Sakurajima, who had been forgotten by everyone.

Although he couldn't stop Mai Sakurajima's power from going berserk, he took down a near-level one cursed spirit in less than a minute, and extracted the cursed object that the spirit had devoured from its body. Throughout the entire process, he didn't break a sweat and maintained a nonchalant demeanor.

This was the first time that Miyauchi Hiyage had ever performed a request to exorcise a cursed spirit.

In the past few days, the people in the group have gradually unlocked their Spirit Vision and seen the reality of this world.

To be honest, even those low-level Vengeful Spirit can make people feel physically uncomfortable, let alone those more ferocious high-level Vengeful Spirit. The girls in the group can finally understand why Yotsuya Miko was so frightened when they first found Yotsuya Miko.

Just facing Vengeful Spirit requires mental preparation, let alone the first time encountering a cursed spirit.

Judging from this alone, Miyauchi Hiyage's mental fortitude can be considered quite strong.

Furthermore, the cursed object that appears to be able to prematurely awaken extraordinary abilities is also quite intriguing.

Although half of the girls in the group don't have much ambition for strength, nor have they ever thought about entering the dangerous Reverse Side World, and even a small portion of their Reading Points are used for other things.

Just like Hoshino Ai, who is determined to become the strongest Idol, she spent nearly half of her Reading Points this month on improving her professional skills. The Reading Points she used for Ripple and Kusanagi-ryu Ancient Martial Arts were only to make her physical fitness stronger so that she could better complete various performances.

Kasumigaoka Utaha herself has also used some Reading Points to improve her writing skills.

But this is also because they know that they are not particularly talented in the extraordinary field, and it is better to maintain their current mindset than to force themselves into that world.

If there were a way to awaken their extraordinary powers, most of the girls in the group would be willing.

So when the girls in the group learned that the cursed item had been transferred to the forbidden treasury of the Jujutsu High, they felt a little regretful.

Just as Shinomiya Kaguya Diary, as long as they have enough Reading Points, they shouldn't have to worry about their abilities going berserk. This cursed artifact is indeed quite suitable for them.

It wasn't until nearly midnight that Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly tagged Honma Meiko in the group chat, asking when she would be coming out of seclusion. After explaining the reason, the girls in the group were finally able to rekindle their enthusiasm.

However, Honma Meiko. She was probably too busy with the fusion of the Ley Line to find time to chat.

While the other girls were all thinking of starting with Shinomiya Kaguya and Honma Meiko, Kasumigaoka Utaha, sitting in front of her computer, showed a disdainful expression.

Shinomiya Kaguya rarely contacts Honma Meiko in the group chat, so why did she suddenly remember tonight that the other woman could help her awaken supernatural powers?

It must be that Miyauchi Hiyage saw through Shinomiya Kaguya's thoughts and that's why he reminded her!

Furthermore, while other girls were saying that Miyauchi Hiyage was so calm during her first exorcism of a cursed spirit, Kasumigaoka Utaha knew that Shiina Mashiro had actually solved many low-level requests to exorcise Vengeful Spirit with Miyauchi Hiyage's help.

It's almost Monday, and the daily requests for Miyauchi Hiyage will soon be refreshed. She can go to Miyauchi Hiyage to consult on this matter again.

Over the past two weeks, although she has maintained normal communication with Miyauchi Hiyage, Kasumigaoka Utaha has also found a suitable time to inadvertently expose her Ripple Chi Kung to Miyauchi Hiyage.

Afterwards, she naturally received guidance from Miyauchi Hiyage on Ripple techniques through Shiina Mashiro's certification, which greatly accelerated her progress in Ripple training, and the two became closer.

They went from being just ordinary friends to being able to talk about more intimate topics, so they could be considered good friends.

Kasumigaoka Utaha felt that, given their current relationship, she should be able to ask Miyauchi Hiyage for help with some low-level exorcism requests next month.

With this in mind, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt much more inspired for the next volume of her novel.

As dawn approached, Kasumigaoka Utaha was contemplating whether to greet Miyauchi Himekage at the appointed time when a sudden reminder came from her Diary Miyauchi Hiyage.

When she opened the Diary and saw the words inside, she felt like the sky was falling.

"Due to special circumstances, the maximum Reading Points that diary holders can obtain through daily commissions this week has been reduced by 3 points. Please check your own records."

Chapter 266: Kasumigaoka Utaha's Suspicion

When Kasumigaoka Utaha saw this message in her Diary, her expression immediately stiffened.

Why was the Reading Points acquisition cap suddenly reduced by 3 points for no apparent reason?

What exactly is the reason behind this special situation, and from what angle should we investigate it?

Although 3 Reading Points may not seem like much, she can now reliably earn 10 Reading Points per week from this commission, and it doesn't require much effort; she just needs to follow Miyauchi Hiyage's instructions.

She usually consults Miyauchi Hiyage about her creative and spiritual problems. Given Miyauchi Hiyage's character, there's no need to worry about her proposing anything she can't accept.

Compared to the daily requests of others, Doma Umaru needs to do housework every day, Gokō Ruri needs to meet weekly livestreaming hours, and several girls in the group who are pursuing Idol careers need to gain fans, etc...

Her daily request was already at the lowest difficulty level—she had secretly asked Shiina Mashiro's daily request was to have Miyauchi Hiyage choose clothes for her every morning, and to earn Reading Points based on the clothes she wore.

However, aside from weekends, Shiina Mashiro to school on weekdays, so she can only get the minimum Reading Points. In total, she can't get 10 Reading Points a week from this daily quest.

Now, the Reading Points that were practically given away for free have suddenly decreased by 3 points. Although it doesn't seem like much, if this continues, reducing the Reading Points cap by 3 points every week is roughly equivalent to losing more than half a month's worth of skill proficiency each week.

If she can't figure out why her daily commission rewards were cut, Kasumigaoka Utaha feels she won't be able to sleep well tonight.

After hesitating for a moment, she posted her situation in the group and started asking if anyone else had experienced the same thing.

Of course, she was still too embarrassed to reveal the specific requirements of her daily commissions, only saying that her weekly daily commission limit of 10 points had been reduced by 3 points.

The girls in the group who were still online were quite concerned about the reward for commissioning the Diary.

However, only Kasumigaoka Utaha has encountered this situation so far; the other girls online have never experienced anything like it.

A few other people were asking Kasumigaoka Utaha what exactly her daily requests were.

They were remembering that Kasumigaoka Utaha had kept her daily requests a secret and hadn't told anyone about the details.

After all, the girls in the group generally maintained a spirit of sharing. Many of the mechanisms of the Diary were explored and shared little by little by them. After joining the Jujutsu High Shinomiya Kaguya also shared almost all the extraordinary powers she could access with the group.

If anyone in the group encounters trouble, everyone will try their best to help.

This is the only advantage they, as "ordinary people," have.

After all, Hoshino Ai spontaneously formed a group chat just one week after they obtained the Diary, while the second batch of holders might be much stronger than them in terms of innate strength.

However, judging from the You Know Who's occasional daily complaints in the diary, the second batch of holders are still a disorganized bunch fighting their own battles. Every day, the questions they ask in the back of the Diary are about their own future information and trying to find out the You Know Who's identity. No one has stepped forward to gather the second batch of holders together.

Under such circumstances, Kasumigaoka Utaha's deliberate act of concealing her daily commissions seems somewhat contrived.

Under their persistent questioning, Kasumigaoka Utaha gritted her teeth and ultimately refused to reveal Miyauchi Hiyage Eriri Spencer Sawamura.

Anyway, the girls in the group and people at school have misunderstood her relationship with Eriri Spencer Sawamura more than once, so she's using this excuse to shift the blame and I'm sure those girls will believe it.

Sure enough, after hearing that Kasumigaoka Utaha's daily requests were related to Eriri Spencer Sawamura, the girls in the group immediately became much more ambiguous in their attitudes.

After all, the novel and anime that the You Know Who serialized most frequently last month were Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend. Girls who know the plot are of course aware of the lesbian relationship between her and Eriri Spencer Sawamura, two losers licking each other's wounds. It's just that Kasumigaoka Utaha herself has always been unwilling to admit it.

No wonder Kasumigaoka Utaha was unwilling to reveal her daily requests. The girls in the group quickly stopped dwelling on the issue, with only a few who knew the truth or could vaguely guess it remaining silent.

After the girls in the group had their curiosity satisfied, several of them also helped to investigate for a while, and finally came to the most likely conclusion:

It's possible that Kasumigaoka Utaha was overrated.

Perhaps because it was a routine commission, the other party did not manage to collect too many Reading Points, nor did it incur any penalties for failing the commission.

So everyone in the group was asking Kasumigaoka Utaha if any other girls had appeared around Eriri Spencer Sawamura recently. If she wasn't at school, maybe someone had secretly approached Eriri Spencer Sawamura this weekend.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was taken aback when she saw the analysis from the girls in the group.

Her first thought was of Mai Sakurajima, that woman.

After all, she knew that her daily commissions were actually tied to Miyauchi Hiyage.

Miyauchi Hiyage has almost no female friends in his class, and the only one who seems threatening, Haruhi Suzumiya, doesn't appear to have shown much interest in Miyauchi Hiyage in the past few weeks.

To put it bluntly, these days Haruhi Suzumiya Kato Megumi than in Miyauchi Hiyage.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was unaware that Haruhi Suzumiya had joined Miyauchi Hiyage's team. After all, Haruhi Suzumiya herself wouldn't suddenly approach her with these things. Shinomiya Kaguya hadn't revealed what happened that night because Miyauchi Hiyage had asked her to keep it a secret.

Without knowing this important clue, and given that this hint only appeared tonight, Kasumigaoka Utaha naturally thought of Mai Sakurajima, who had spent the whole day with Miyauchi Hiyage.

It must be this woman. She clearly had Diary but pretended not to, fooling everyone and even giving her daily life to Niu, who took away 3 Reading Points.

Thinking about this, Kasumigaoka Utaha wanted to tell the truth in the group chat and then confront Mai Sakurajima face to face.

Unfortunately, she still cares about her reputation and wouldn't back down so easily.

Fortunately, Miyauchi Hiyage was not tempted by Mai Sakurajima Mai's beauty and stayed true to himself. The two of them would probably only see each other again on weekends for the next week.

She could only think that after this matter was over, she would ask Shinomiya Kaguya and Yotsuya Miko in private messages to see if they had noticed anything suspicious about their interactions with Mai Sakurajima today.

Chapter 267: Wonder of U

The girls in the group were lamenting that Kasumigaoka Utaha was about to be outdone, while Kasumigaoka Utaha suspected that Sakurajima Mai was about to Shiina Mashiro Mai Sakurajima. She was thinking about having a complete showdown with Miyauchi Hiyage this week, and that when Miyauchi Hiyage went to meet Mai Sakurajima again this weekend, she would go along to keep an eye on things.

After wandering around aimlessly over the weekend without finding any suspected supernatural beings, Haruhi Suzumiya, who had spent the whole night practicing martial arts at home and was about to go to sleep, scratched her head when she saw the Reading Points that had suddenly arrived in her account, feeling somewhat bewildered.

Although she had been secretly investigating Kasumigaoka Utaha for half a month, she didn't really know what the woman's daily requests were, and could only make some simple guesses based on the other woman's usual behavior.

He hadn't expected that before she even started testing him, he had already stolen 3 Reading Points from her.

After investing all 3 points of Reading Points into physical skills, Haruhi Suzumiya felt a slight change in her physical abilities and began to ponder.

So, what exactly did she do last week?

Haruhi Suzumiya thought about her school life last week, and it seemed to be no different from the week before last.

She investigates Kasumigaoka Utaha, observes Kato Megumi and Shiina Mashiro, and joins various seemingly interesting clubs. After breaking the records of those clubs, she leaves without hesitation at their request.

The only change seems to be that Friday night, when I went to a suburban villa with Miyauchi Hiyage to film a murder scene?

After investigating Kasumigaoka Utaha for two weeks, she had basically figured out Kasumigaoka Utaha's personality and behavior at school.

The behavior of the other party that is most inconsistent with her aloof persona in Toyosaki is her relationship with Miyauchi Hiyage.

Even with Shiina Mashiro present, Kasumigaoka Utaha Haruhi Suzumiya felt that Miyauchi Hiyage wasn't just a simple friendship.

Haruhi Suzumiya muttered to herself, resting her chin on her hand.

So, could it be that Kasumigaoka Utaha's daily requests are really related to Miyauchi Hiyage?

Haruhi Suzumiya felt that her idea had a high probability of being true.

Now that she has joined Miyauchi Hiyage's team, she will inevitably have to deal with Miyauchi Hiyage in the process of vying for control of the team, giving her plenty of opportunities to try.

But why is it Miyauchi Hiyage?

Haruhi Suzumiya felt as if she was only one step away from seeing what she wanted to see.

So, before going to bed, Haruhi Suzumiya set herself a goal for the week.

This week, she needs to spend as much time as possible with Miyauchi Hiyage without Kasumigaoka Utaha noticing, and see if she can gain more Reading Points by the end of the week.

Meanwhile, Ryougi Shinobu, who was secretly preparing her plan to revive Sukuna, was also preoccupied with the shadows of Miyauchi Hiyage.

After realizing that Miyauchi Hiyage might be the chosen one of this era, he devised a plan to make Miyauchi Hiyage a useless person, and then went alone to Sendai to keep an eye on his adopted son, Yuji Itadori.

But unexpectedly, just two days later, Miyauchi Hiyage caused trouble again.

A seemingly ordinary exorcism mission has unexpectedly become connected to something he did a hundred years ago as Noritoshi Kamo.

He only needed to recall for a moment to remember the origin of that heart.

A dying demigod who lost his faith and divine power in an era of mysterious decline.

At first, he had high expectations for that demigod, and even thought that he could create a super cursed object on the other party that surpassed the Cursed Womb: Death Painting, thus fulfilling his long-cherished wish of a thousand years in that era.
