Anime Crossover Livestream: The Second Dimension

This warm jade must be something valuable, right? It's worth far more than the pastries she gave me; she shouldn't have accepted it.

She silently watched as Manami Aragaki bought the books, walked home again, put them down, went out again, took the train to a library, and began asking people what was going on...

Chiba City Library.

Manami Aragaki calmly flipped through miniature versions of old newspapers in a corner of the reading room.

"The eldest son of suspects Saeki and Kayako, Toshio, is currently missing, and the police are making every effort to search for him."

The decapitated body of a female middle school student was found on a middle school campus.

"The mystery of a mother who died at home after losing her child."

"Husband beaten to death with a dry-bottomed pan"

[Oh, how terrifying! I've figured it out! If I'm not mistaken, all these seemingly unrelated people died in that haunted house! I saw the address in the newspaper!]

[If I'm not mistaken, the female ghost is Kayako, the little boy is her son named Saeki Toshio, and she has already killed her husband.]

[Manami, this ghost looks terrifying! If you can't beat it, run away quickly!]

Hey, Aragaki-kun, you have to live well no matter what!

Ok?

As if sensing something, Aragaki Manami noticed a brown scrapbook that had appeared out of nowhere.

It was a brown scrapbook that looked a bit dirty from long-term use.

The scrapbook suddenly opened on its own, moving automatically even without any wind...

It was covered with clumsy handwriting that looked like it was written by a child. In addition to the text, there were some poorly drawn illustrations and scraps of photographs scattered around. It seemed to be a woman's diary.

Suddenly, the scrapbook stopped on a certain page.

Besides the delicate, childish handwriting on that page, there was also a strange eye drawn on it, and then... the scrapbook slowly stood up.

Manami Aragaki glanced at him with her eyes slightly closed, then casually leaned back in her chair, using her right elbow as a fulcrum, resting her chin on her hand, and tilting her head slightly, appearing very relaxed.

No matter how you look at it, they don't seem to care about the eerie scene in front of them.

Suddenly! Blood flowed from the eerie eye pattern, and at the same time, a black beam shot out with lightning speed towards Aragaki Manami!

Aragaki Manami slightly raised her eyes, and suddenly shot out a crimson light, swiftly and decisively shattering the black light!

But the scrapbook disappeared in an instant...

"Strange, the lockdown is about to be lifted," Aragaki Manami thought to himself. He then slowly tidied up the newspapers on the table, preparing to go to Kayako's place to avoid Kayako coming to him on her own initiative.

at the same time.

The haunted house where Kayako and Toshio Saeki were staying had already welcomed a group of guests.

Chapter 19 Nakano Ichika and Sakurajima Mai! The Haunted House Plan

A conversation could be heard coming from inside the abandoned old house.

This wouldn't have happened a long time ago.

Yes, the guests who have come uninvited are all gathered together for a small impromptu meeting.

"Final review of the script, make sure you memorize the lines!"

"Yes!" The voices rang out in unison, quite loudly.

The middle-aged man wearing a hat, who seemed to be the leader, nodded in satisfaction upon hearing the answer. He then walked to the other side of the tree to rest in the shade, amidst the others who wore obsequious smiles.

Call ~

The girl with the pretty short cherry blossom hair secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Way of the Heart.

Although I was just a background actor at the very end and didn't have a single line, I've at least seen some scenes.

"Is this your first time participating in the filming of this kind of program?"

"...Yes, yes, Sakurajima-senpai!" The cherry-haired girl immediately responded to the beautiful black-haired girl who suddenly spoke up next to her, her well-developed body taut and her attitude very proper.

This is something that must be corrected!

Uprightness from the inside out!

The girl with cherry blossom hair is named Nakano Ichika.

She is currently a junior high school student who was recruited by a talent scout. She initially thought it was a scam, but to her surprise, the scout arranged for her to be with a bunch of celebrities she could see on TV.

Especially this one in front of me...—this is Mai Sakurajima, who debuted as a child star and is now very popular after officially transitioning into an actress!

Definitely a senior!

Senior!

He's a true senior!

Even though they were classmates, their status was not something she could easily shake in the slightest.

"Good luck." The black-haired girl with the aura of a big star, Mai Sakurajima, smiled slightly, seemingly not intending to say anything more.

Ichika Nakano nodded emphatically: "Yes!"

After responding, she didn't intend to continue speaking; she could clearly sense that Mai Sakurajima didn't want to keep talking.

That's true.

Chatting casually during a shoot can give others a very bad impression, and it's fortunate that Sakurajima-senpai was able to encourage her with that word.

Nakano Ichika, who was new to the entertainment industry, had an endless curiosity.

As she gradually learned more, she vaguely felt that the youthful life on campus could no longer satisfy her!

She clenched her small fist, as if she was preparing something...

the other side.

Manami Aragaki had already left the library and was heading towards Kayako's residence without any apparent change in expression.

The group of people were still stunned by his calm expression.

Yingzhou. Yukiyuki, imitating Aragaki Manami, propped her elbows on the table, rested her chin on her hand, and tilted her head to look at the large laptop screen in front of her.

"Pie, pie! Pie, pie! So cool..."

After humming a couple of times, the girl with purple and white hair couldn't help but say something.

Just like in a fighting anime, even their eyes can shoot lasers! That's awesome, isn't it?!

As soon as Yuzuki Yukina recalled Aragaki Manami's slightly lazy and casual demeanor, her thoughts began to stir, and she couldn't help but wave her tightly clenched fists erratically.

What was originally a frightening scene is no longer frightening.

She's a little bit timid.

Or rather, it's estimated that few people could remain calm after witnessing this mother and son demons named Kayako and Saeki Toshio.

but.

Despite her reluctance, Yuzuki still managed to go and see it. Fortunately, Aragaki Manami always handled everything calmly and composedly; otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to sleep alone.

Oh, right, it seems like a friend of mine keeps begging to sleep with her.

They probably thought the little boy would pop out from some random corner.

Today I'm probably afraid to even look at any book... Honestly, should I ask someone to move all the books out of the room... But that would be too cowardly, wouldn't it?

While contemplating the matter of the moon's edge.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the continent, in the Qiming Empire, Mo Qingxian was also deep in thought.

At this moment, two young girls—Le Zhengling and Luo Tianyi—were hanging from her arms.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to see something a little scary."

“This is beyond just ‘a little scary’…” Yue Zhengling hugged Mo Qingxian tightly, trembling, and couldn’t help but complain. Luo Tianyi also agreed with a “woo woo”.

Honestly.

Yue Zhengling truly never expected that Aragaki Manami's courage and strength had reached such a level!

She believes she has never truly understood Mana Aragaki as a person.

Understand this! What would astonish or even frighten ordinary people is commonplace to Aragaki Manami. Even the seemingly urgent crisis is dealt with as easily as eating and drinking.

What exactly did this person experience in a year?

Mo Qingxian immediately voiced Yue Zhengling's thoughts, saying with some sadness, "Zhen Nan must be having a very hard time in the Tang Dynasty."

“Brother Aragaki wouldn’t think that way,” Luo Tianyi said in a slightly trembling but beautiful voice, her large emerald eyes sparkling. “You can tell he’s very determined, and as long as there’s delicious food, he won’t be in pain.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Qingxian immediately felt it made a lot of sense, and her sad expression quickly disappeared. Even Yue Zhengling couldn't help but secretly give her good friend Luo Tianyi a thumbs up.

The three then continued watching the live stream, and saw that Manami Aragaki had gotten out of the car and started walking down a familiar road.

The quiet path was sparsely populated.

The paths that Aragaki Manami walks along are often in this state, which fits the Japanese horror atmosphere perfectly.

It is located on the edge of Tokyo, only a short distance from Chiba, and its conditions in all aspects are almost identical to those in Chiba.

Therefore, this is actually understandable.

What's the situation in Chiba?

It's probably like a scene from an anime, with few people on the streets and natural environments like farmland and rivers.

Of course, it can't be called a village, but it has all the necessary facilities, and it's much better than many rural areas!

"That haunted house is quite famous in this area. People who go there are probably either adventurous teenagers with delusions of grandeur and a thirst for thrills, film crews who like to shoot paranormal shows, or other unexpected people..."

On the way, Aragaki Manami guessed that the barrier he had set up must have been accidentally destroyed by someone. After all, he was only a half-baked expert and couldn't make the outer edge of the barrier perfect.

They barely had any strength left after just trapping Kayako, let alone any strength left for further prevention.
