Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful scumbag.

However, if this kind of reputation develops in some strange direction, then he still needs to pay attention.

So, starting from Nightmare Island, Hoshino Hideyuki flipped through the posts page by page.

The Smiling Fox is definitely the best urban legend of the last two years...

[Shocking! Superstar Sae Hamabe says in an interview that she feels like she's encountered a smiling fox!]

[The second episode of my self-made Smiling Fox animation is out! Come check it out!]

After flipping through it for a while...

"Huh, that's strange..."

Hideyuki Hoshino scratched his head and noticed that many of the offensive posts he had seen before were gone.

Posts that made it sound so serious, like those claiming he could eat people, and posts that Ichikiku had seen just a few hours ago saying he was cursing people at Akitsu Department Store, are all gone.

Just as the fox was wondering what was going on, his phone beeped, and he noticed that Yukiho Amamiya had sent him a message:

【Mr. Smiling Fox, so you do care about those ridiculous rumors too? Hehe, we really are on the same wavelength, a match made in heaven~】

【Don't worry, besides sending Sister Aragaki to check the mall tonight, I also arranged for someone to clean up the online mess. I guarantee that no one will spread rumors about you for a while...】

Below the dialogue, Lady Amamiya also added a meme of a fox slitting its throat.

Hideyuki Hoshino blinked.

No wonder, only the young lady could do something like that.

But then again, is this so-called cleaning a proper cleaning...? Hmm...

Hoshino Hideyuki continued scrolling down the screen and noticed that Amamiya Yukiho, seeing that he hadn't replied immediately, started talking about the TV series "The World's Unusual Story" on her own.

Oh right, tonight is the time for the drama he starred in to air. If I think about it carefully, it should have been airing for more than ten minutes already, right?

Unfortunately, it seems the young lady will be disappointed.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, the young lady sent another message:

[Mr. Smiling Fox, why, why were all your scenes cut?!]

Immediately following this were several consecutive fox-biting emojis...

No, not just a few, but thirty in a row!

This young lady is practically smoking the screen with all her taps!

Chapter 193 Just thinking about foxes made Miss Chizuru unable to help but let out a soft hum~

Why isn't my face shown?

That's because the fox spirit used a mirror to see flowers!

Even if the director hadn't cut it out, you still wouldn't be able to see anything, Miss.

Of course, Hoshino Hideyuki's explanation could not satisfy Amamiya Yukiho.

The young lady continued sending fox-biting emojis.

Interspersed throughout were a series of phrases such as "That's so mean," "Those are precious memories between me and Mr. Smiling Fox," and "I can't take it anymore, I'm about to get angry. Don't blame me for being too rough next time we meet."

hiss……

Hoshino Hideyuki scratched his head, feeling threatened, so he dug out the original commemorative film he had asked Director Fujiwara for and sent it to the young lady.

Although his face was also blurred in there...

But at least most of the body is still there; as for the face, we can just Photoshop a pink fox head on it.

And the young lady's reaction to the fox's actions was...

He changed the biting emoji to a clenched fist emoji and sent ten of them in a row.

Hahaha... So, let's say the threat level has decreased? Yeah, that must be it!

In short, the male fox finished his perfunctory response to the young lady.

Just as he put down his phone, he saw Ichikiku walking over with a plate of sliced ​​apples.

Kikuchi Ichi sniffed her delicate nose and said, "Have you finished chatting with your young lady?"

Hoshino Hideyuki's eyes widened: "Huh? How did you guess it again?"

"Even if I can't guess what you, you fox, are doing, do you think I can't guess what another woman is up to?"

As Ichikiku was speaking, she suddenly stretched out her merciless iron hand, grabbed the fox by the scruff of its neck, and used her other hand to pick up an apple with a toothpick and stuff it directly into the fox's mouth.

The meaning in her eyes was clear:

I'm jealous!

The originally planned gentle feeding session has been turned into a frenzied feeding session!

Hoshino Hideyuki raised an eyebrow, inwardly sighing:

Sigh, being a male fox is so tough.

Not only do they have to endure the online violence from the rich girl, but they also have to endure the real-life violence from their live-in partner!

I was shivering and cold! I forgot the rest!

Despite his complaints, Hideyuki Hoshino still swallowed the apple with a smacking sound.

Well, the fruit is innocent, and it's very sweet, so we shouldn't waste it!

Speaking of which...

The TV series has already aired, I wonder how things are going in Musashi Village?

The fox was enjoying the taste of the apple when his thoughts drifted off for a moment.

at the same time.

Hundreds of kilometers away, in Musashi Village, at the home of carpenter Uoya.

A ten-year-old girl, a rarity in the village, was jumping around pointing at the television.

"Look, look! It's our school!"

"Ah, the newly built Inari Shrine is also in the picture!"

Half a month has passed since the “cult” incident. Although bodies are still being dug up from the ground from time to time, the remaining people must go on with their lives and cannot remain immersed in grief and anger forever.

Watching TV dramas filmed in the village is a good way to adjust one's mood, so tonight, Yuwu specially took some time to snuggle up on the sofa with his wife and daughter.

The TV series ended quickly.

Seeing that her daughter was still not satisfied, Uoya smiled, stood up, patted her head, and then turned and walked towards the door.

His wife came closer and asked in a low voice, "Are you still going to work?"

Uoya nodded with a sheepish grin: "After all, we need to save up enough money to move to Tokyo."

After saying that, he picked up the wooden box from the shoe cabinet and walked out the door.

He walked along the dimly lit road, and soon arrived at the hot spring inn, where he saw the beautiful figure that had been waiting for him at the door.

With her snow-white skin and voluptuous figure, she is truly a rare beauty.

Uoya sighed twice, then politely stepped forward and said:

"Excuse me, are you Ms. Haibara Chizuru?"

The beautiful woman turned around, adjusted her glasses, and smiled, "Ah, it's me. Are you Mr. Uoya?"

"Yes, yes, nice to meet you... I've brought the things, you can take a look first..."

"Thank you so much, I'll pay the balance right away..."

"Huh? This... is much more than what we agreed on online..."

"Consider this an extra tip for your trouble, please accept it~"

ten minutes later.

Chizuru Haibara returned to her hotel room, clutching the box.

"Chizuru-senpai~"

A young woman with braided pigtails walked over and asked, "Did you get the samples?"

"Okay, let's take care of it together so we can set off for Osaka tomorrow morning."

"Ok."

The girl with the braided hair took the box and, unable to resist her curiosity, opened it slightly to take a look.

Inside the box was the carcass of a spider, over thirty centimeters long, almost a contender for the Guinness World Record.

Several blocks of ice were placed next to the body, indicating that the original owner was aware of the need for freezing, but this still did not stop the body from slightly decomposing and emitting a foul stench.

Upon seeing the appearance and smelling the odor, the woman with the braided hair gagged a few times and immediately slammed the box shut.

Chizuru Haibara remained calm and patted the other person on the back, saying, "Just bear with it. It's already quite good that a non-professional could preserve it to this extent."

"Also, remember to wear gloves and a mask before inspecting samples next time. Although the Jorogumo spider is a common species, this one is clearly abnormal, and there might be some unknown problem..."

"Good, good."

The girl with the braided pigtails nodded vigorously, then muttered a complaint in a low voice, "I really don't know why we had to do this..."

Chizuru Haibara smiled helplessly: "The research institute is short-staffed, and our current actions are somewhat against the rules..."

"Senior, what I don't understand even more is why the professor agreed to cooperate with that weirdo!"

The girl with the braided pigtail pouted: "All they do is make us study weird things all day long. If this keeps up, my resume after graduation will be ruined. People will definitely think I'm some kind of conspiracy theorist and I won't be able to find a job!"

"That's true..."

Chizuru Haibara said this, but in her mind, she recalled the appearance of the spider in the box just now.

Weird?

It is indeed very strange.
