This Japanese Monogatari Isn't Lame

Chapter 65: Chapter 65. Tanaka Takashi, Yamakou Hideyasu

It was a considerable distance from Yashan City Police Station to Xucha High School, and even though Beichuan Si had set off two hours early for Xucha High School, the journey still took a lot of his time.

By the time he caught a glimpse of the faint outline of Xucha High School under the night sky, the time on his watch had already jumped to 9:30.

"I’m glad I made it," Beichuan Si paused, exhaling a white breath.

The temperature was even lower at night, but the fans of Xucha High School showed no signs of dispersing yet, which even Beichuan Si found somewhat astonishing.

These fans had actually waited until now just for a simple live stream of a spiritual exploration.

From his perspective, some fans had even brought sleeping bags and tents, seemingly prepared to battle through the night outside Xucha High School.

It was also fortunate that the highway rerouting within Yashan City had become more evident over the past decade; otherwise, gathering so many people here might have led them to be treated as vagrants.

But thanks also to the chilling rumors about Xucha High School and its gradual transformation into a suburban wasteland, this plot of land would likely have been razed and replaced with new constructions a long time ago.

Beichuan Si subconsciously wrapped his scarf tighter, trying to keep Nishijou Kelian warm, but she responded by scratching her face with her hand to show that it made her uncomfortable.

"You’re still a child, it doesn’t hurt to wrap up a bit more." Beichuan Si insisted on bundling Nishijou Kelian in the scarf, leaving only her little doll’s face exposed.

In the chilly wind, Nishijou Kelian’s small doll face seemed to wear an expression of innocence.

But Beichuan Si didn’t dwell on that for long.

This temperature wasn’t much for him, but perhaps Nishijou Kelian would feel cold?

The live stream had already officially started on the phone, and they were about to enter the fan drawing phase soon; Beichuan Si couldn’t linger in one place too long.

He wrapped up the doll tightly and plunged into the crowd.

...

Koyama Tetsuya was one of the behind-the-scenes organizers of this event, and similarly, he was primarily in charge of the raffle process, which included sorting and organizing the fans on-site and distributing drawing numbers.

After all, there were a lot of people present; a rough glance estimated nearly a hundred.

This was no small number.

Keep in mind that this event had no official promotion; it was a privately organized activity, choosing Xucha High School

The fact that so many people responded and came to the location already greatly honored the supernatural forum’s two hosts.

The YouTube live stream had already begun broadcasting, and the number of viewers was starting to jump.

In just half an hour after starting, nearly five thousand people were watching.

"If the operation of this event goes well, the profits and monetization of traffic afterwards could earn a lot of money! Not to mention the costs of future endorsements and advertisements."

Koyama Tetsuya watched the continuously fluctuating data in the live stream, his heart blooming with joy.

It was undoubtedly an exhilarating experience—outdoor spiritual exploration live streaming, especially at a place like Xucha High School, which always had major topics and naturally attracted many young people who liked stimulating and horror content.

Just when Koyama Tetsuya was quietly praising the brilliant planning of this event—

He suddenly felt a disturbance behind him.

Koyama Tetsuya shivered, a chill running from the soles of his feet up to his spine, and he shuddered uncomfortably, his expression one of bewilderment as he looked at the figure appearing behind him.

In fact, the person standing behind him was not some terribly wicked individual.

On the contrary, the person was a young man with a clear and handsome appearance, exuding a sense of sternness.

The young man was dressed rather thinly, wrapped in a scarf that seemed stuffed with something.

Overall, his movements seemed agile, but if Koyama Tetsuya had to wear that ensemble, he would undoubtedly shake uncontrollably from the cold, his complexion turning purple.

But this young man was a bit different, his fair face flushed with a faint heat, cheeks rosy.

Under Koyama Tetsuya’s gaze, this stern youth nodded to him, his voice cold as he said,

"I am a fan."

His voice was as cold as a blade, causing Koyama Tetsuya to shiver involuntarily,

"...You’re a fan?"

Did he actually have such a fan?

""

The stern youth did not reply, just nodded.

Koyama Tetsuya was somewhat taken aback, he glanced at the youth doubtfully, and it took quite a while before he handed over the card number under the gaze of the other’s staring eyes.

The youth satisfiedly took the card number, was about to turn and leave, then Koyama Tetsuya grabbed him—

"Are you really our fan?" Koyama Tetsuya did not know why he blurted out such a question, but he instinctively felt something off about this formidable youth.

"I am." The stern youth replied coldly, then looked up at Koyama Tetsuya again and asked,

"Do you have any more questions?"

"...No." Koyama Tetsuya shivered with fear, involuntarily letting go of the youth, and watched him blend back into the crowd.

"Why do I feel like his eyes were only on my number card? It seemed like if I didn’t give it to him, he was going to punch me?"

He couldn’t help murmuring to himself.

...

Beichuan Si mingled in the crowd, playing with the round number card in his hand, his eyebrows raised slightly at the large number 44 on it.

The number card was now in hand, next it was all on Nishijou Kurenai’s performance.

If Nishijou Kurenai succeeded, Beichuan Si could officially enter Xucha High School.

If Nishijou Kurenai failed, Beichuan Si would have to find a secluded spot to climb over the wall to get in.

Compared to the latter, the former guest identity was more efficient for Beichuan Si.

Because he could follow behind the two supernatural forum hosts to explore, and if he found something intriguing, he could just leave the hosts to investigate.

Likewise, by following these two supernatural forum hosts, Beichuan Si could also take minimal care of them, avoiding the police from being called to the scene should an accident happen.

But if there really was something that Beichuan Si cared about, he wouldn’t bother about those two specially coming to Xucha High School to livestream themselves courting death, he would just go and explore on his own.

After all, investigating the truth behind the fire that happened ten years ago was what Beichuan Si should be doing, not spending his time acting as a bodyguard.

Just as Beichuan Si was deep in thought, the two supernatural forum hosts finally appeared inside a temporary shelter.

They were equipped with professional sports cameras and various personal camcorders to livestream the entire process of their adventure.

One of the supernatural forum hosts was named Tanaka Takashi, with dyed blond hair, a sunny face, and the other was Yamakou Hideyasu, fair-faced and agile.

Their sudden appearance at the scene instantly ignited the atmosphere.

The supernatural exploration event—

was about to begin.
