Jun Sakurada never expected that by casually saving someone out of nothing, accumulating some goodwill and connections, he would actually run into someone he knew.

It should be noted that Jun Sakurada's understanding of Japanese entertainment is very limited. Apart from the memories forced into him by the system, he only has vague images of watching Taiga dramas with his grandfather before his memories were restored, and extremely limited records from his previous life.

Even with such limited and vague memories, he was still able to recognize four of the six people.

First, there were those three men whose combined presence could be overwhelmed by a bear.

Ryunosuke Kamiki is a top-tier actor in Japan. He played the younger version of Kurokami in Kamen Rider Agito and voiced Taki Tachibana in "Your Name." He has acted in many dramas and movies, but unfortunately, I haven't seen any of Jun Sakurada's works.

Takeru Satoh, a Japanese film star, a manga adaptation expert, Kamen Rider Den-O, Rurouni Kenshin... He is known as the man who has played every man's dream role.

Finally, the monkey head at the very front holding the stick is not an actor; it's Takahiro Moriuchi, the lead singer of the neon rock band ONEOKROCK.

In my previous life, in 2023, I held a concert in Chengdu, China. I happened to be traveling in Chengdu, and before I was called Jun Sakurada, I casually bought a ticket and danced all night. I had a pretty good time.

In short, he's just a monkey that can only sing and dance; we don't need to worry about him.

He could barely recognize all three miniature people, but he wasn't very familiar with the three girls.

After looking for a while, I could only tell that one of the older two was the actress who played Natsumi Kane, the female lead in Kamen Rider Decade.

I didn't recognize the remaining two at all. Judging from their exquisite appearances, they were probably celebrities.

"Wow, this involves a whole bunch of celebrities!" Sakurada Jun exclaimed in amazement, while also feeling a little excited.

A celebrity's connections are a good thing; they can attract wealthy and gullible fans from outside the entertainment industry.

While it's unlikely these geniuses will actually give a game a crash right now, what about two years from now? What about a pandemic and city lockdowns? You'll have to do a live stream then, right?

Furthermore, this period coincided with the peak of Knights Studio's popularity in China, and Takeru Satoh, due to his high status and price tag, was known as one of the most difficult men to invite back to Knights Studio.

If we could get him to show his face in my live stream, that would be a great way to ride the wave of popularity.

Sorrying for what was happening and ignoring the surprised looks from the celebrities, Jun Sakurada focused his attention and cast a cold, emotionless gaze at the anxious bear.

A mysterious pressure, belonging to the dominant species in the biosphere, is unconsciously released; humans cannot perceive it, but bears feel it clearly.

The delicate, two-legged creature before them seemed to transform in an instant into a ferocious beast even higher in the food chain than its own, its barely concealed power causing the bear to tremble involuntarily.

Its upright upper body slowly lowered down, returning to a state where it was on all fours.

The celebrity group originally consisted of six people. If they had been more experienced in dealing with bears, hadn't screamed, and had acted calmly and assertively, the bear probably wouldn't have bothered with them at all.

Jun Sakurada thus lost the opportunity to use this opportunity to bestow favors.

Xiong looked at the six dwarfs, then at the imposing Sakurada Jun, and pondered that both sides' ideas were difficult to deal with, and that they were vaguely forming a sandwich between them.

Instinctively feeling that it was at a disadvantage, it could only growl in the direction of the celebrities, and its plump body slowly retreated until it finally disappeared into the shadows of the mountains and forests.

"That ridiculously handsome guy... he just glared at us and chased the bear away?"

The six who had escaped death looked at each other, their twelve eyes filled with shock.

The little people had no idea what kind of internal struggle the bear went through, nor could they feel the predatory pressure emanating from Jun Sakurada.

All I saw was that incredibly handsome young man, holding a stick, standing there, giving the bear a cold glare, and the bear whimpered and retreated.

Is this some kind of local supernatural power?

"Thank goodness, we're saved!" The girl who looked the youngest among the six was probably only two or three years older than Sakurada Jun.

In that sudden moment of relaxation, I didn't care whether the stones on the riverbank were uncomfortable or not, and just sat there like a duck. It felt like I would have burst into tears if I didn't have to maintain a certain image.

"Oh my, young man, you've been a huge help! Without you, I feel like a serious accident might have happened today!"

The most familiar face among the six, the actor Takeru Satoh, who could portray six or seven split personalities in Den-O, breathed a sigh of relief, put on a calm smile, and walked towards Jun Sakurada.

He showed no sign of having been terrified earlier; had he been able to muster even a little bit of courage, the bear might not have dared to make a move.

Sakurada Jun felt a little like laughing for no reason.

When these people were huddled up, it wasn't noticeable, but now that they're all standing up, the tallest of the six is ​​apparently Mori Hirokazu, who's wearing high heels.

As for those three men whose official heights weren't even listed as over 1.7 meters...

It can only be said that the Johnny's interviewers were wrongly blamed.

He didn't directly respond to Sato Takeru's words, but simply shook his head slightly and said:

"Although February is indeed the hibernation period for bears, we cannot rule out individual cases like the one we just saw, where bears may wake up early to hunt for food due to insufficient food intake before hibernation."

"These types of bears are generally extremely aggressive due to hunger. The streams near this valley are also very fast-flowing, which can easily obscure your voices, making it highly likely that you will encounter a bear and be attacked by one."

He glanced at the equipment on the six men and added, "So even when camping in a wild valley like this during hibernation, it's recommended to carry a bear bell and bear spray, and also—"

"Don't scream when you see a bear, as this can easily trigger a stress response in the bear."

Before the words were even finished, one of the six people, the lead singer with the monkey-like head, and the young girl who had fallen to the ground, were stunned for two seconds before their faces turned red at a visible speed.

"Cough, cough!" Seemingly recovering from the fear and the relief of surviving the ordeal, or perhaps trying to save face, the girl coughed lightly twice and put on a bright smile.

"Little brother, are you a local? Have you ever considered becoming an artist or debuting, or have you already signed with an agency?" Such an awkward way of changing the subject.

It has to be said that, whether it's because these people are celebrities or because birds of a feather flock together, they don't have the typical reserved politeness that Japanese people usually have.

Jun Sakurada blinked, looking at the girl who looked like a famous actress and walked towards him with an overly familiar expression.

"I don't have any plans in that regard for the time being. Also... what is your surname?" He decided to find out who this person was first.

Even though he knew the other person was trying to change the subject, he still wasn't used to this overly familiar social dynamic.

Then you see that the girl who was just smiling so brightly is now pouting:

"You don't recognize me?"
