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

"No, Daigo, are you serious? A real car accident?"

"Wasn't the claim that the 'car accident hero' was pure fabrication?"

Seeing the live stream chat explode with excitement, Jun Sakurada launched into a serious debunking mode:

"First of all, I want to emphasize that the old jokes about the car accident hero that circulated on the Chinese Internet in the past were indeed a great disrespect to that senior and a fabrication."

"The senior did have an accident ten years ago, but neither party was injured. It was just a normal accident, and the senior has not been involved in any traffic accidents since then."

"To this day, the senior remains healthy, and was uninjured in today's accident. The claim of him being a 'car accident hero' is nonsense, a shameless fabrication by some marketing accounts for the sake of popularity and traffic!"

"But... there was indeed a small accident today, but strictly speaking, it was entirely the other party's fault, and it won't affect the subsequent arrangements, so... please look forward to it."

After chatting briefly with everyone, Jun Sakurada abruptly ended the live stream, leaving viewers with only a black screen that left them with much to ponder.

Just kidding. Over the years, how many calories have these domestic marketing accounts consumed? They're always talking about car accidents, getting into trouble every year, and getting their stories debunked every year.

Now that the "Car Accident Hero" meme has finally gone from being a rumor to a relatively neutral one, is Nagano Hiroshi himself not allowed to ride on his own popularity?

It has to be said that everything was such a wonderful coincidence.

"All done." After turning off the live stream, Nagano Hiroshi strolled back to his ward. He had already gotten up and was stretching his body, planning to immediately immerse himself in practice and preparation once he returned to headquarters.

"Can this really generate buzz?" Hideaki Takizawa still couldn't understand how something as trivial as a car accident could become a hot topic.

"Just wait and see." Sakurada Jun kept everyone in suspense, changing the subject: "By the way, what's the situation with the other party who caused the accident? Where are they now?"

"Over there... well, they're public figures too."

When this was mentioned, Hideaki Takizawa's expression became somewhat subtle.

"A fairly popular band called Hitorie rented a car with a driver and was taking them to their tour venue."

"As a result, the driver was careless on the way and had a minor collision with Nagano-san."

"The driver has been found fully responsible, so our plan is to seek compensation from the car rental company."

"As for that band, we'll talk to them later and tell them not to go around saying anything out of line. That'll be no problem for them."

There's not much to argue about in a car accident, and it's not too serious. You can claim compensation when necessary, but it will take some effort to keep quiet about it.

But Jun Sakurada's focus didn't seem to be on that: "Where are the members of that band?"

"He's waiting in a lounge. What's up?" Hideaki Takizawa asked, surprised.

"I'll go take a look." After finding out the location and route to the lounge, Jun Sakurada turned and left.

Hideaki Takizawa was left standing there, looking puzzled.

Following the directions given by Hideaki Takizawa, they circled around for a while and arrived at the door of a lounge. Jun Sakurada pushed the door open and went in. The four men inside immediately stood up and were taken aback when they saw that it was a handsome young man.

"Jun Sakurada, Johnny's." Jun Sakurada simply introduced himself without uttering a single unnecessary word. "Nagano-senpai is fine, basically unharmed, so there's no need for you all to worry too much."

The four men breathed a sigh of relief, but Jun Sakurada continued speaking.

He stood there, sizing up the four men, before finally fixing his gaze on one of them: "But, I think you might have a problem."

The man wore round, black-rimmed glasses and was rather thin. He appeared to be an ordinary young man. When Sakurada Jun suddenly called his name, he seemed a little taken aback: "Me?"

"Don't you think your current state is visibly terrible?" Jun Sakurada unusually chose a rather straightforward way of expressing himself.

But it can't be too blunt; this guy really does look like he's about to die.

His face was pale, his eyes were puffy, and his lips were visibly purple and dry, clearly indicating that he had been staying up late a lot.

"Releasing a new album soon, you must be exhausted?" Jun Sakurada sighed.

"...It's alright, we can hold on." Hearing Sakurada Jun's obvious statement that he knew him, the man paused for a moment before responding in a low voice.

"Since you're already at the hospital, why don't you get a checkup, Wowaka?" At this moment, the man with the guitar next to him looked at his deathly expression and advised him as well.

"I'm really fine..."

"Just go take a look, it won't get in the way." Jun Sakurada's reminder seemed to wake up the other band members, who all started to persuade the man named Wowaka.

Finally, unable to resist, he reluctantly went with his teammates to complete the formalities.

Watching his retreating figure, Sakurada Jun shook his head. "You little brat, you owe me a life."

That's right, this is another person that Jun Sakurada knows. After all, this person is a well-known figure in the Japanese music scene.

To be precise, the first dead person.

Wowaka, or rather, Genji Escape P, like Kenshi Yonezu, is one of the monsters who emerged from countless geniuses and stood at the top in the largest breeding ground for VOCALOIDs in Japanese music.

The achievement of having four mythological songs is virtually unparalleled in the gaming world.

After leaving the stunt scene in 2011, he formed his own band, Hitorie, and made his mainstream debut in 2014.

While Hitorie may not have the phenomenal popularity of Kenshi Yonezu in the Japanese music scene, they are still a well-known and successful band with a promising future...

That is, Wowaka is not dead.

Jun Sakurada remembers it clearly: less than two months later, on April 5, 2019, Wowaka passed away in his sleep due to acute heart failure.

After his death, the entire shoju (traditional Japanese martial arts) community mourned the passing of this genius. A year later, Kenshi Yonezu wrote a song specifically for him, which was included in his new album.

The lyrics of that song contain the names of several of Wowaka's works.

There were various theories about what caused the death of this genius before Jun Sakurada's time travel, but after meeting him in person today, Jun Sakurada understood everything.

I was completely exhausted.

Hitorie's new album was released on February 27th, followed by a tour, a period that puts immense pressure on the band.

Wowaka, who is a songwriter, lead vocalist, and guitarist all at once, is under even more pressure, and it's unknown how many nights he's been staying up late lately.

In such a situation, once that string snaps, the worst possible outcome is highly likely.

But in this life, with the intervention of a certain network of connections, perhaps his fate can take a slight turn.

Jun Sakurada calculated it perfectly. As a genius in the cult scene back then, on par with "Hachi" Kenshi Yonezu, Wowaka's creative ability is beyond doubt.

If you can get to know him well, it will be a very important connection, whether it's with Sakurada Jun, who has no creative ability whatsoever except for copying, or with his junior sister who is also not a creative type.

Therefore, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda.

Jun Sakurada is actually a kind-hearted person!
