Chapter 476: Chapter 314: Brother Temple Is Really an Incredible Man (4000 words)

Beichuan Si, after taking a bath at the homestay, went straight to bed.

The others, seeing him sleeping so peacefully, didn’t disturb him.

To be honest, this incident seemed to be wrapped up, and it was about time they considered leaving.

After all, none of them were particularly free; everyone had their own forums or live streams to run. Just letting them go for a day would cause the popularity they had worked so hard to build up to fade somewhat.

That was the downside of the internet celebrity business.

As for Gongben Naoki, she had already submitted her manuscript in advance, so there was no rush to get back to work.

Plus, most of them still had university or junior college coursework to deal with, and being an internet celebrity was just something they did in their spare time; there was never enough time.

It was a rare Golden Week holiday, and since they were already in the vicinity of Yamanashi Prefecture, she wanted to relax and take in the scenic views of the famous Fuji Five Lakes.

After a bit of discussion, everyone had already decided on their own plans to stay or leave.

Then—

They couldn’t help but glance sideways at Beichuan Si’s room.

It was unknown what Beichuan Si had been up to when he went to soak in the hot springs early in the morning, only to return two hours before.

"The key now is Mr. Beichuan’s thoughts, right?" They huddled together.

Beichuan Si had helped them so much, and it was only right and reasonable that they should pay him compensation, wasn’t it?

To take a step back, even if Beichuan Si didn’t need their compensation, it was only sensible to invite Beichuan Si to play around Yamanashi Prefecture, right?

They discussed in hushed tones, careful not to wake up Beichuan Si in the next room.

But—

Their door was pulled open, and Beichuan Si, wearing a yukata provided by the homestay, stood by the door, his black eyes looking at the group huddled together inside.

"What are you guys doing? I’ve been hearing you mention my name since just now."

Uh...

The four inside looked at each other in confusion.

Their voices had been very soft, with each person trying hard to keep their tone down so as not to disturb Beichuan Si.

But you heard all that?

Is it that you have good hearing or is this room’s soundproofing too poor?

Yamakou Hideyasu and the others showed an embarrassed yet polite smile, then one by one, like students caught cheating on a test by their teacher, rubbed their palms uneasily and said,

"Actually, we were discussing the issue of staying or leaving tomorrow... Hideyasu and I are from the same university, and we were assigned homework by the teacher before the holiday, and there are also things to handle at the studio, so we can’t stay for long..."

Just as Tanaka Takashi was about to continue, he only saw Beichuan Si wave his hand with an unchanged expression and say, "Get to the point."

Beichuan Si didn’t get up to hear about their holiday plans; it was because they kept inadvertently mentioning his name in their conversation, which is why he had come to inquire.

"It’s about the matter of your compensation, Mr. Beichuan."

Tanaka Takashi spoke up.

"Is that it?" Beichuan Si frowned.

"That’s it."

Beichuan Si glanced over these people, thought for a while, and then shook his head.

Tanaka Takashi, Yamakou Hideyasu, and Hobu Tian didn’t seem like they could offer a decent compensation. After all, the first two had been looking for financing last time, and Hobu Tian would occasionally update advertising activities on his personal homepage; none of them looked like they were flush with cash.

And Beichuan Si wasn’t short on money at the moment.

Since Nakajima Michika had directly transferred twenty million to him, Beichuan Si and Beichuan Huili’s recent expenses did not even amount to that much.

Moreover, Qiuxiao Yunai would also occasionally send over a few million...

Honestly, he didn’t care much about money.

Thinking this, Beichuan Si thought for a while before speaking, "If you guys really want to repay the favor... I do have something that I hope you can help with."

"Help... What kind of help?"

"I hope you can help me keep an eye out for urban legends and supernatural spots."

Beichuan Si sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, "Similar to the kind of incident this time... I hope for as many real urban legend events as possible."

Hobu Tian and Gongben Naoki looked baffled.

One startling experience like this was enough, but they hadn’t expected Beichuan Si to actually utter words like "the more the merrier."

Should they say, it’s just like Mr. Beichuan, after all?

As opposed to Hobu Tian and Gongben Naoki’s confusion, Yamakou Hideyasu and the others understood well.

Beichuan Si seemed to have always been keen on urban legends, supernatural tales, and eerie locations; it was as if he obtained something from these things.

Maybe Beichuan Si’s urban supernatural website was created for this purpose.

They exchanged glances and agreed without hesitation.

Seeing that Tanaka Takashi and Yamakou Hideyasu agreed without a second thought, Hobu Tian and the others also quickly followed suit, expressing their agreement.

"Thank you for the trouble then." Beichuan Si finished his tea, appearing unfazed on the surface, but he was actually quite pleased inside.

This way, he had four more "tools"... no, information channels.

Especially since Hobu Tian and the others’ work was related to urban supernatural tales, this made things even easier.

After that was settled, Beichuan Si also put down the teacup and went back to rest.

Seeing Beichuan Si actually heading off to rest, those who had slept too much during the day were left staring at each other.

Now it was impossible for them to sleep, and with their train tickets already confirmed, there was no issue at all.
