Zongman: I am on the set of Oregairu, playing the role of Bai Xue

The next day, Shinpei woke up from his sleep.

Since Ryunosuke was attached to his body, he could immediately issue a warning even if a shadow sneaked in, so Shinpei slept very soundly and his body and mind finally got enough rest.

After a night, the shadow man did not invade Xiaozhou's house again.

Just as Bodao said, as long as Shinpei continues to live, other shadow people will not come to interfere.

Last night, Kofune Mio was confused by his unusual reaction.

After all, Amiyo Shinpei's mental state was not good. Sometimes he was listless, sometimes he talked to himself and fell into sadness, and finally he suddenly shouted "We can meet again!"

You know, her sister's body has turned to ashes, how could they meet?

At that time, Shinpei had to work very hard to evade the question, otherwise his sudden reaction would only make Kozuna Mio feel heartbroken and confused.

It's a sunny morning on Ridu Island.

It was as calm as the previous reincarnations.

"Western Restaurant Xiaozhou" is open to guests as usual.

Shinpei Amishiro and Mio Kofune are busy in the store.

The customers who come to dine are all familiar faces to Shinpei. After so many reincarnations, he not only remembers the order in which the customers visit, but can also predict the conversations that will happen next.

But Ryunosuke issued a warning:

[Shinpei, there are two shadows around.]

Shen Ping, who was about to receive the guests, remained calm and continued to chat with the hotel owner who was drinking in front of him.

There was a shadow sneaking into the restaurant, which was something Shinpei had expected.

After yesterday's battle, the residents around "Kobayakawa Department Store" almost all turned into shadows, including many customers who were supposed to come to the store today.

No matter what the intentions of these two shadows are, as long as Shinpei does not make any abnormal moves, the two sides can coexist peacefully.

Shinpei thought to himself: "He must be here to monitor me."

[Yes, I think so too. The shadows are on your left side, against the wall. They are sitting facing each other.]

Following Ryunosuke's instructions, Shinpei walked around the store paying close attention to the movements of the two shadows.

The other party behaved like an ordinary human being, nothing unusual.

The atmosphere in the store remains harmonious.

Ryunosuke and Shinpei have already considered the follow-up actions.

First of all, they cannot act rashly. At least when they sense shadows around them, Shinpei needs to live his life as usual and behave as if he has been shocked.

This is the only way to confuse the shadow man's judgment and hide Shinpei's intention to find Shadow Tide.

As for when to start looking?

Shinpei can only secretly find the beach where Shadow Tide is on the day of the summer festival and wake up this important teammate.

Therefore, they cannot act in advance. If they become impatient and expose their whereabouts, Bodao will definitely destroy the Shadow Tide completely like he did last time.

Even if Shinpei could still trace back, Hatano would still be on guard.

At present, the human side is completely at a disadvantage. In terms of numbers, strength, and wisdom, they are inferior to the shadow side.

Even so, humans still have a chance of winning.

Shinpei only has one chance, stay secret and take the opportunity to cut off the enemy's lifeline!

Regardless of what Hasuda's true intentions are, Shinpei still believes that Hasuda will devour the entire island on the night the summer festival ends.

To do this, he needs to find new allies in the human camp.

As for the candidate, Shinpei already has an idea in mind.

That is... diamond-shaped bronze.

In addition, his good friend "Diamond Window" and Window's sister "Diamond Ibis" are both reliable helpers.

The Diamond Family is inextricably linked to the Shadow People, but they are still human at heart.

Logically speaking, Diamond Bronze and Diamond Ibis both control special shadows. Once Bo Dao gives an order, these shadows may turn against him in battle.

But both Shinpei and Ryunosuke noticed it.

The essence of Shadow Tide is actually Bodao's "left eye". As long as she is there, she may be able to change the control of the shadow and play a key role in the battle.

Of course, these plans were not directly presented to the audience.

Instead, it is presented through a mobile phone conversation.

The scene switches from the western restaurant to the office of the diamond-shaped hospital.

Diamond Bronze, the serious dean, wore a white coat as usual and stayed alone in the spacious office. As long as the summer festival had not arrived, the hospital's work would proceed as usual.

But in addition to providing medical services, the Diamond Hospital has also been secretly serving Shadow for hundreds of years.

Diamond Bronze had a blank expression on his face, and the lenses of his glasses reflected the incoming call notification on his mobile phone interface. He was silent for a moment, and finally answered the strange number.

A deep male voice sounded in the quiet office:

[Webmaster Shinpei, I heard you have something urgent to talk to me about?]

Far away in a bedroom of Xiaozhou's house.

Shen Ping turned his back to the camera and gently put the smartphone to his ear. Hearing the notification of the connection coming from the receiver and the question from the diamond bronze, he said indifferently:

[Dean Ryogata, I know that your family has a connection with the Hirudo God, Bo Dao…]

After hearing these straightforward remarks, the Diamond Bronze on the other end frowned. Instead of hanging up the phone, he seemed to take it very seriously.

The words mentioned by Shinpei undoubtedly touched upon the other party's secrets.

[If you don't think you're 'immune', feel free to try. The shadow nurse, and your wife's shadow, should be able to help.]

[As for the information that I have the ability to go back in time, Bo Dao already knew it. I have no other intentions, I just want to talk to you alone, even if we will soon be swallowed up along with the entire island, I want to die with a clear conscience.]

[What exactly is the Hirudo Godwave Rice? Where did it come from, and how did you come into contact with it? If you are willing to answer this for me, I will be waiting for your call.]

[Beep…beep…]

Amiyo Shinpei hung up the phone.

A diamond-shaped message popped up on the phone immediately: "How is it? Is my dad willing to communicate?"

Shinpei relaxed, edited the message and sent it.

"I made it clear on the phone and am waiting for his response."

I don’t know how long it was, but Diamond Bronze called as expected.

But his voice seemed much older, and the momentum in his words had long disappeared:

[…What do you want to ask?]

Amiyo Shinpei remained calm and reminded the other shadow people of the things they should pay attention to during the conversation in case they noticed anything unusual.

Then the questions began.

The animation, combined with relevant plot scenes, depicts the origin of Hirugoshinami Ina.

The story begins with a whale.

The time goes back to the Great Kyoho Famine of 1732.

One day, a huge whale ran aground on the coast of Ridu Island.

This whale is the original "shadow". Its origin remains a mystery. It is very likely an alien being that fell into the sea and, after a long time, has been constantly replicating various creatures in the ocean.

When the whale was washed ashore, it could no longer move, attracting the attention of the residents of Ridu Island at the time.

The first human to approach it was a little girl named Bo Dao.

The whale suddenly emitted a dazzling white light, scanned Bodao's human body information, and transformed its form from whale to human.

Then, it aroused its hunting instinct and opened its huge mouth... and swallowed the human Bodao in one gulp.

That year, Ridu Island suffered a severe famine. The leech god Hamado turned hundreds of residents on the island into shadows and ordered these shadows to fish, helping the islanders survive the famine.

After the islanders worshipped Hama as the Hiruko Goddess, she married the Rhombus-shaped paper dangler (four-handed) and gave birth to offspring.

Subsequently, the Hiruzu Shrine was built and the belief in Hiruzuko began to be passed down from generation to generation, with the Karakiri family being responsible for the worship.

Due to the characteristics of the shadow, the children born to Hatano are actually clones of their father, so the two children look exactly like Kamadahiko when they grow up.

Realizing this, Kamadahiko has Hasedori copy his personality and memories into the clone so that he can "regain his youth."

In this way, Kamidahiko continued to have children born to him and lived for nearly 300 years.

In order to cover up his tracks, Kamidaihiko arranged for the Hisoga family to split up, with one side responsible for managing the shrine and the other side responsible for running the Hisoga Hospital. Hatano then maintained cooperation with the Hisoga Hospital for a long time.

The massive air raid on Wakayama during World War II caused severe damage to Hata's body, which was the direct cause of her weakness.

Bodao was originally the size of an adult, but due to gradual weakening, it degenerated into the appearance of a young girl.

But now...

If what Bo Dao said was true, the Four Hands beside her, the old monster who violated common sense and moral bottom line, was already dead.

Diamond Bronze was able to confirm this, as he had neither seen Four Hands himself nor been able to contact him by cell phone in recent days.

The number of messages from viewers in the live broadcast room has surged:

"What a beast!"

"I'm sorry, but I don't understand. Is this something a human can do?!"

"After reading this history, my three views are completely destroyed..."

"It seems!"

"But how many people can resist the temptation of eternal life?"

……

The animation continues to play——

Shinpei was digesting the information provided by the other party.

[So, Bodao planned to devour humans at the summer festival because of the death of his lover... It seems that Bodao is indeed lying.]

Diamond Bronze asked: [Lying? What do you mean?]

Shinpei explained: [Hadane once said that she would give up the summer festival plan because Yotsugu was dead, but according to current analysis, there is obviously a contradiction between the two.]

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then Diamond Bronze asked again: [Bodao, didn't you mention the "homeland"? Four Hands once promised me that all humans would be transformed into shadows, and then we would live together in the hometown of shadows.]

[Hometown?] Shinpei thought about what Hatano said and replied: [No, this word has never appeared. Whether it is Hatano's words or Four Hands' promise, we cannot judge their authenticity now, but one thing is clear...]

[The rice will surely devour everyone.]

The diamond bronze's voice became hoarse, and he asked: "What are your plans?"

At this time, both sides fell into a brief silence.

Finally, Amiyo Shinpei answered:

[No plan, my wish has come true, at least I can wait for death in peace.]

[Beep…beep…]
