Tokyo: My obsession with China led me to become the king of Japanese entertainment.

"Why are you all asking questions? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Sakurada Jun blinked, his face full of innocent confusion and doubt. Combined with his face, which could convincingly portray anything, especially his talent for feigning innocence, his persuasiveness was off the charts.

He was very clear that even if he wanted to emulate the Japanese and the humorous Japanese, at least at this stage, as a Japanese person, he absolutely could not personally expose his own country's shortcomings.

That might generate more traffic in the short term, but it could easily backfire like the old man Lao Fu, who overdid it and caused a disaster.

Therefore, it is essential to maintain a proper balance.

"Um, could everyone please be a little clearer? Was there anything wrong with what I just said?"

His humble and eager-to-learn demeanor confused those viewers who still held onto their biased view of Japan.

A middle-aged woman bumps into someone in the street just to "release stress." For Chinese audiences, it's hard to understand what kind of psychological abnormality would lead someone to choose such an abstract act.

It's strange that Jun Sakurada acted as if it were something he'd never seen before, even though it was such an abstract thing.

It's as if... in Japan, such mental illness is commonplace.

"Jun, are those people who ram people into others common in Japan?" Finally, someone couldn't help but ask in SC.

"A lot? Not really. There were fewer reports in previous years, but there have been more and more related reports in the last two years." Jun Sakurada shrugged.

"My hometown, Akita, is a bit better, but cities like Tokyo, which are very stressful, are not so relaxed."

As if he had opened a floodgate, Jun Sakurada became a little more talkative, his tone carrying a hint of emotion, even complaint: "These past years have been tough for everyone."

"With the economy not improving and the pressure of life being high, everyone is more resentful."

"Usually, due to various requirements for reading the air, people have no way to vent their anger, so they can only pass it down layer by layer."

"The boss berates the higher-ups, the higher-ups berate the team leaders, the team leaders berate the ordinary employees, and the employees go home, drink, abuse their wives, or anonymously hurl insults online."

"And someone like that woman is probably from the lowest rungs of society, suffering from all kinds of mistreatment but having nowhere to vent, so she can only come to the streets and relieve her stress by hitting people like that."

"While I certainly wouldn't sympathize with that kind of behavior, I can at least try to understand... Why are you all so quiet? Did I say something wrong?"

At this point, he seemed to belatedly realize that he had said a bit too much, and quickly shut up.

Unfortunately, just as he shut up, a black and white car with red and blue police lights appeared at the street corner in the background and drove straight toward him.

The Metropolitan Police Department responded to the call fairly quickly today, and their appearance officially declared to all the Japanese viewers in the live stream that what just happened was not a scripted event orchestrated by someone for publicity.

The live chat exploded with comments.

What kind of image has Japan projected to the world through entertainment, animation, and other means over the past few decades?

High quality, polite, disciplined, meticulous, sophisticated, craftsman-like... no, I mean, the spirit of craftsmanship.

And what about the neon lights that viewers saw from Jun Sakurada's live stream today?

Repression, perversion, and madmen on the streets who are so depraved as to attack children just to vent their emotions...

"It should just be an isolated case. I don't think it should be generalized to the whole group. When I went to Japan last time, the Japanese were very polite."

"Besides, isn't the anchor himself quite of high character? It's unfair to arbitrarily label an entire ethnic group..."

Some people in the live chat spontaneously spoke up for Japan, but it's unclear whether they were being sincere or just desperate apologists.

But before Sakurada Jun could even answer, another group of people came forward to give their own accounts:

"I don't think so. After studying abroad for three years, I know what kind of people the Japanese are like. People like the 'hit-and-run gang' may not be many, but they are definitely not isolated cases."

"Tourists will never know the true nature of Japanese people. If you can't integrate into their lives, you can only see the surface."

……

Jun Sakurada simply watched the debate between the comments with a bewildered expression, offering no comment.

Just then, the Metropolitan Police Department sheriff arrived beside Sakurada Jun and politely inquired about the situation with a smile.

In the past, many people's first impression would probably be, "Wow, Japanese people are so polite. Even the sheriffs are so courteous and smiling when they check people."

But this politeness, compared to the woman's ruthlessness when she hit him, actually gave people a chilling feeling.

Jun Sakurada didn't say much, cooperated with the sheriff to complete the investigation, and said that he had urgent business to attend to, leaving the remaining handling of the hit-and-run incident to the couple.

After he successfully extricated himself from the situation, he watched as the live stream's popularity not only didn't decrease but actually increased, and the debate between the two sides became increasingly heated, and he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Jun Sakurada has no sense of belonging to Japan, even though he has traveled through time for sixteen years.

Even during the fifteen years he lost his memory and lacked self-awareness as a Chinese, he often struggled to maintain good interpersonal relationships because he was not good at reading the room, was not sociable, and was too good-looking.

The saying goes, "Don't cause trouble for others," but there's never a clear boundary as to what kind of behavior would cause trouble for others.

If it weren't for the succubus's enhanced physical abilities, which made him unbeatable among his peers in the entire Akita Prefecture, he might have suffered not isolation, but bullying.

That's why Jun Sakurada feels perfectly justified in selling out the collective image of Japanese people to boost his own popularity.

Let alone breaking the filter for Chinese compatriots, as long as they don't mind, Jun Sakurada would definitely not mind immediately transforming into the Japanese version of Prison A and starting a long-term program called Humorous Prison Day.

Unfortunately, the Chinese people generally look down on those who lack backbone and betray their own community, so Jun Sakurada has to carefully weigh the pros and cons.

As the two sides in the live chat clashed more and more fiercely, to the point that they were starting to get a little angry, Sakurada Jun shook his head, his eyes widening slightly, adopting a helpless expression:

"Don't argue about this... If I had to say, Japan isn't as good as some of you say, nor is it as bad as others say."

"In that case, let's end the live stream here for today. I will compile the interview content and the details of today's collision incident into a video and release it as soon as possible. I hope that it will answer some of your questions."

"See you next time we stream!" Before the words were even finished, the stream was abruptly shut down, cutting off all the arguments in front of the black screen.

But... was the audience's confusion really resolved?
