Although Yaehoshi understood these things, he preferred to slack off when possible; less work was always better.

On the other hand, precisely because the gap between his strength and that of ordinary people was too great, it was difficult to conduct special training in this area.

Imagine this.

When talking about counter-reconnaissance, if he were to say something like, 'As long as you listen carefully and distinguish the weight of footsteps and the frequency of strides within a hundred-meter radius, you can determine the other person's height and weight…'

Who could learn that?

So, the experiences of ordinary people are more suitable for the members to learn.

Of course, not this batch of members.

A week later, it was time for the shift change.

And the Hyperdimensional Research Society members who would be coming to Nitou Island for special training tomorrow were personally named by Yaehoshi as the so-called 'Ordinary People Group'.

For no other reason than they were all ordinary people.

Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka both agreed to participate, and Kougane Shinomiya was extremely generous, chartering a yacht directly, considering safety issues, to allow them and the Hyperdimensional Research Society members to gather in Kyoto first, and then set off together.

Natsumi Suga, Saki Kawasaki, and her younger sister Kyoka Kawasaki, who insisted on coming along, Hana Yurikawa, Menma, Shouko Makinohara, Naruko Anjou, and the only deceptionist in the Hyperdimensional Research Society, Marin Kitagawa.

Originally, Touma and Setsuna wanted to bring Shoko Nishimiya as well, but after all, the other party was not a formal member of the Hyperdimensional Research Society, nor was she an informed person who knew the truth about the evil spirits. Moreover, although these members had all met Shoko Nishimiya at the New Year's gathering, they could only be said to know her and couldn't be considered friends.

Considering that Shoko Nishimiya suffered from hearing impairment and her physical fitness was only average, and that they had to take care of her and couldn't casually display special abilities in front of her, Touma and Setsuna simply invited Yukina Ogiso to relax and play in Kyoto with Shoko Nishimiya, enjoying their first summer vacation, which they rarely had friends to spend together.

Chapter 344: The True God of Pure Love, a Murderer Hidden on the Island

"Haa… Finally, I can rest for a day…"

Even Ushio Kofune and Mio Kofune, who usually exercised, were somewhat overwhelmed by the intensity of the special training over the past week.

Not only physical strength but also the mental torment they endured.

The only one who could barely keep up was Hizuru Minakata, whose mental fortitude was extraordinary.

And the longer the special training lasted, the more Ushio Kofune and Mio Kofune admired the girl named Miko Yotsuya, with golden eyes and dark blue long hair.

It was said that…

Most of Yaehoshi's special training plans had been tested on her to ensure they would be effective.

What kind of guinea pig was that?

As a result, Miko Yotsuya not only survived all the special training but also became the strongest spiritual power user in the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Research Society, apart from Yaehoshi.

It was so inspiring.

"Rest?"

Hearing Yaehoshi's rhetorical question, Ushio Kofune and Mio Kofune couldn't help but shudder, fearing that the other party would say they had to continue the special training.

"That's right, it's time to rest."

Yaehoshi nodded and smiled.

"Then you two, go back and rest first."

Ushio Kofune looked puzzled and said.

"Eh? Then… what about Hizuru?"

"Her?"

Yaehoshi glanced at Hizuru Minakata standing beside him and said with a chuckle.

"You should still be able to persevere, right?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

Hizuru Minakata wasn't the kind of person who liked sports, but for so many years, in order to avenge the murderer who killed her younger brother, Hatou, she had been insisting on exercising to maximize Ryunosuke's combat power when his consciousness took over.

Therefore, although she hadn't received the injection from Kyoto's number one eroge shooter, her physical fitness was still very good.

Ushio Kofune's personality was relatively stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat. Hearing this, she immediately braced herself and said.

"Since Hizuru can still persevere, then Mio and I can too…"

"Clang."

Before Ushio Kofune could finish speaking, she received a gentle chop on the head.

Yaehoshi retorted in a flat tone.

"That's enough, go back and rest. If your body develops disabilities, I won't be responsible for after-sales service."

"Tch…"

Ushio Kofune stuck out her tongue, made a cute face, and snorted softly.

"Let's go, let's go, I don't want to go anyway, Mio, let's go home."

Watching Ushio Kofune pull Mio Kofune away, looking sulky, Hizuru Minakata, who was usually expressionless, rarely showed a hint of a smile.

"That child is really the same as when she was little. This stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat temper hasn't changed at all."

After saying this softly, Hizuru Minakata looked at Yaehoshi standing beside her and returned to her emotionless appearance, saying faintly.

"So, what's the next special training?"

Yaehoshi waved his hand.

"Let's talk about that later. I need you to do me a favor first."

"What favor?"

"This."

Yaehoshi took out a light novel from his pocket and handed it to Hizuru Minakata.

"As a best-selling novelist, I hope you can comment on this novel from the author's point of view."

"Love Rhythms…"

Hizuru Minakata took the light novel, looked up at Yaehoshi, and said doubtfully.

"How did you know… No, what nonsense am I talking about? Since you know about Ryunosuke's affairs, then it's normal to deduce that the mysterious author Ryunosuke Nagumo is me."

Hizuru Minakata pushed her glasses up and frowned slightly.

"But since you know my identity as a writer, you should also know that I write honkaku mystery novels... Oh, right, so-called honkaku means a school of mystery that doesn't involve any supernatural phenomena and completely conforms to realistic conditions. Since you know I write honkaku mystery novels, aren't you afraid I'll mislead people by asking me to comment on a light novel that, judging by the name, is... romance-related?"

"That won't happen. Just offer some basic advice as a mature writer. And by the way..."

Night Star revealed a hint of a smile as he said sincerely.

"If you're willing to help promote this book under the name of the famous writer Nanjun Ryunosuke, that would be the best."

Hearing this, Nanfang Ritsu's eyes flickered slightly. She turned her face away and asked casually.

"The author of this book, is she a woman?"

"Yes, a woman."

"Your friend?"

"More or less."

"Is she or isn't she? What does 'more or less' mean?"

Nanfang Ritsu narrowed her eyes slightly. This look, which indicated her displeasure and was full of aggression, was very similar to Futaba Rio.

She looked directly into Night Star's eyes and slowly said.

"I can help you, but after this period of contact, I've found that you seem to have... ambiguous relationships with many girls. I'll say this first: I can't control you and the girls around you, but don't even think about laying a hand on Mio and Ushio."

"Eh, you've misunderstood me."

Night Star shook his head very seriously, raising one finger.

"First, those aren't ambiguous relationships. They are indeed, truly, and genuinely lover relationships, and they are very clear about it with each other. It's pure love."

"Pure love?"

Nanfang Ritsu seemed unable to believe what she had just heard and asked back.

"Putting aside the fact that they all know about each other and can still get along, how did you manage to pull off such an outrageous thing? Is it pure love to be two-timing like that?"

"Why not?"

Night Star explained with a straight face.

"Since they all know about each other, then it doesn't count as two-timing. Besides... you probably haven't experienced it, but when a group of good friends all fall in love with the same person, if a winner must be decided, it will inevitably cause conflict and bring pain."

"Achieving a result where both friendship and love are fulfilled is the only way."

"If you say that pure love must involve someone getting hurt, then defining pure love like that only shows that your understanding of pure love is still too shallow."

Before Nanfang Ritsu could recover from these words, Night Star delivered another fatal blow.

"Miss Nanfang Ritsu, you..."

Night Star looked directly into Nanfang Ritsu's eyes and said, word by word.

"Have never been in love, and have never... liked anyone, right?"

Nanfang Ritsu was silent. She didn't need to answer; her expression was already a tacit admission.

The God of Harems was still outputting.

"In that case, how can you understand the most subtle, most tender, yet indelible feelings of love? Not to mention that this is a high-difficulty problem involving friendship and family. How can you make a rash judgment?"

"This..."

Regarding these kinds of ideas, Night Star would rarely show off his talent for debate. In addition, Nanfang Ritsu really had no romantic experience, so she was speechless at this time. She opened her lips, but in the end, she could only whisper.

"I'm... I'm sorry."

Afterwards, Nanfang Ritsu remembered something else.

"You just said 'first point'... does that mean that the things I misunderstood about you aren't just what I just said?"

"Of course."

Night Star spoke righteously.

"I wasn't thinking about laying a hand on Kojou Ushio and Kojou Mio."

Before Nanfang Ritsu could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Night Star add.

"I was thinking about laying a hand on all three of you."

Nanfang Ritsu was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth and glared at Night Star.

"...You bastard..."

"You're getting flustered, you're getting flustered."

...

For the entire next afternoon, Night Star and Nanfang Ritsu circled the edge of the entire Nito Island.

During the process of inspecting these places, without Night Star needing to explain specifically, Nanfang Ritsu, who was skilled in honkaku mystery novels and had a very sharp mind, had already noticed unusual signs.

"This is..."

Nanfang Ritsu stood in front of a cliff, looking at the scratches and pits on it, which, although not obvious, could still be found with careful observation, and couldn't help but frown.

"Someone climbed here? And... using extremely professional equipment? That shouldn't be..."

Nanfang Ritsu pondered in her heart, thinking that although the cliffs of Nito Island had a drop of nearly twenty meters to the ground, even those tourists who liked to climb wouldn't go to such a nondescript little place from thousands of miles away to climb a cliff that no one knew about, and couldn't even be called a mountain.

Moreover, the ferry that arrived at Nito Island this week was only the one that the Overload Club members took to leave in the morning, and although the time when these traces were left could not be determined exactly, it was definitely not recent.

"I haven't heard anyone on the island mention any tourists who like to climb... Even if they climb, they should find a local to lead the way, right? Otherwise, what would happen if they got lost or had an accident? Strange, too strange."

At this moment, Night Star suddenly asked something that Nanfang Ritsu didn't expect.

"Have you ever killed anyone?"

Nanfang Ritsu frowned upon hearing this. Although she didn't understand the reason, she first nodded, then shook her head with a complicated expression.

"If Ryunosuke doesn't count... then the answer is... no."
