Gensokyo Population Revitalization Plan

They also thoroughly cleaned the living room, which was covered with all sorts of rumors and rejected articles from newspapers, and arranged it to resemble a proper interview scene. They even purchased special ice blocks from Cirno of the Misty Lake to make shaved ice.

"Very good, everything is ready except for the east wind... or rather, everything is missing Mu Huai!"

Aya Shameimaru was very satisfied with the living room she had decorated. It was simple and bright, and even equipped with a camera, a voice recorder, and lighting. It was clearly a setup that only a professional journalist would have.

Just as she was checking if she had forgotten anything, her phone rang, which immediately put her to the challenge.

"coming!"

Without even thinking of taking out his phone to check, Aya Shameimaru immediately ran to open the door: "Muhuai, welcome to Aya's interview room... Uh, what's up with the girl behind you?"

"Don't mind her, she's just my fashion accessory."

"As long as she doesn't interfere with my interview, I'll just treat her like an accessory."

"Don't worry." Mu Huai pinched Yakumo Yukari's pink cheek with his backhand to prove that she was completely harmless: "Look, she didn't wake up even though I did that."

"That's really impressive. Are there any youkai in Gensokyo who can sleep this much?"

"Yes, I have."

Shameimaru Aya habitually pulled out a notebook and pen from behind her back, her eyes shining as she asked, "Who is it? There's even a sleeping master I don't recognize?"

“Living at the Yakumo Residence.”

"Hmm... It's actually a youkai hiding in the Yakumo Mansion! This is incredible!" She nodded as she took notes, then urged, "And then?"

"Yakumo Yukari".

"So her name was Yakumo Yukari... Wait a minute!?"

Volume 4, "Anything Can Happen in Gensokyo": Chapter 65 - The Reporter's Tongue is Very Swift

The tengu behind Aya Shameimaru was trembling like a Parkinson's patient. It was the first time she felt so close to death. If she hadn't gone to the toilet earlier, she probably would have peed herself from fright.

"She...she...she...she...she is Yakumo Yukari!?"

"Quack! You Gensokyo stallion, are you trying to kill me!?"

Mu Huai pressed down on her shoulders and gently comforted her, "Calm down, I've already told you she won't wake up now."

"How dare you say she wouldn't have some backup plan, record what happened during her slumber, and settle scores later?"

"......"

Seeing that he remained silent, Aya Shameimaru panicked even more, grabbing his arm and shaking it violently: "Say something, or did my jinx really come true?"

"Isn't the mouth of a tengu a harbinger of doom?"

"I'm not a crow, or if you have to say I'm a celestial dog, you should say I have a dog's mouth... Pshaw! How did I end up insulting myself like that?"

"Don't worry, if Yukari Yakumo really wants to settle scores later, I will definitely..."

"You'll take the blame all by yourself, won't you?" Shameimaru Aya's eyes lit up instantly, and she patted Mu Huai's chest with tears of joy: "Brother Mu Huai, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Save any last words or wishes for the interview later, even if it's just to have sex with me."

He slapped away her hand, which seemed to be groping him, without any expression, and sneered, "I would suggest that Yukari Yakumo bury me with you, so that I can haunt you as a gossip reporter even as a ghost."

"Tsk, heartless man."

Seeing that his attempt to shift blame was failing, Aya Shameimaru immediately changed her tune, her eyes brimming with tears, like an innocent girl abandoned by a scumbag.

"Were you just playing around with me? Were all those sweet words you said when you undressed me a lie?"

"No, no, no, I was genuinely praising your figure back then; it really is very beautiful."

A straight shot shattered all the remaining ambiguity in Aya Shameimaru's mind, and a wave of heat seemed to burst out from her collar, turning her entire face bright red.

"Oh! You're blushing, let me see!"

"No, no, Brother Mu Huai!!!"

A moment later, Aya Shameimaru took the water bottle and kept gulping down water into her mouth.

Only after finishing the entire pot of tea did she have time to complain to Mu Huai: "Do you have some strange obsession with your tongue? You actually used my tongue as a straw, you're crazy! This was my first kiss!!"

"I've heard that reporters are all very articulate, so I wanted to test if your tongue is really that flexible."

"Huh? Shouldn't agility be judged by how it bites..."

Halfway through her sentence, Aya Shameimaru noticed the mischievous smile that flashed across Mu Huai's lips. She immediately realized that he had tricked her into revealing information. Her face flushed red as she sat down on the sofa opposite him, trying to kill him with her wide, bulging eyes.

(I didn't expect Xiaolan's information to be true; that paparazzi Wen had been spying on us quite a bit.)

"Weren't you going to conduct an exclusive interview with me? Do you want to continue?"

"Hmph, I'll let you off the hook for now, just because it's in the news!"

Shameimaru Aya composed herself and adjusted her clothes, then pressed the recorder and placed it aside: "The interview officially begins. Brother Muhuai, thank you for accepting the invitation."

"Is it that formal!?"

"Of course. Without further ado, let's get straight to the point. What are your thoughts and future plans regarding the currently popular Mechagodzilla?"

"Mechagodzilla, first of all, I have to emphasize that it has little to do with me. I only provided some of the materials to make it. What to do with it afterwards is Alice and Akane's responsibility. I will not interfere."

"Hmm, I heard that after 'Gensokyo Rumble,' another new game is about to be released. Is that true?"

Mu Huai glanced at Shameimaru Aya in surprise. She raised her eyebrows smugly, clearly believing that the information she had obtained was highly credible.

"The information you found is very accurate, but it's not just one game. There are at least three or four more that haven't been released to everyone in Gensokyo yet."

"This is truly remarkable. Could you reveal a little more detail?"

"I can only say that the upcoming game is related to Pelican Town to some extent. The rest are either still in the planning stage or I don't even know about them myself."

"Wait a minute?" Aya Shameimaru picked at her ear with her pinky, looking incredulous. "Aren't you going to be in charge of developing the sequels?"

“That’s right. My girlfriends have a lot of good ideas, so I handed over the relevant matters to them, just like the various shops in Pelican Town that are now open to monsters.”

“Although the seasons in Pelican Town are different from those in Gensokyo, we ultimately live in Gensokyo, and I don’t want the two to be too different. That’s why I’m so keen to promote technology.”

Mu Huai's answer was perfect, but Shameimaru Aya realized that if this continued, it would just turn into a boring, bureaucratic interview, which was not what she wanted at all.

So she decisively started a new topic: "I already know about the future development of Pelican Town, so let's talk about what the monsters are most interested in."

"for example?"

"Of course, it's about your complicated relationships with Eientei, Scarlet Devil Mansion, and other powerful forces!"

"Is this something I can say?"

"What's wrong with saying this?"

"No, no, no, what I mean is..." Mu Huai pointed at Shameimaru Aya, who looked completely bewildered, "If what I said were written in the newspaper, would you really see the sun rise the next day?"

"Wow, this is really exciting!" She immediately straightened her back and respectfully pushed the shaved ice, which showed no signs of melting, in front of him: "Have some shaved ice and rest for a bit, then we can talk about the bigger things."

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Mu Huai had just taken two bites of shaved ice when Shameimaru Aya suddenly brought her pretty face close to his and gestured with her lips.

What are you doing?

"I want to eat too."

He disdainfully held the spoon in his mouth and pushed her aside, saying, "Go get some yourself if you want to eat. This is mine."

"No? You didn't mind eating my saliva just now, so what's wrong with me eating a bite of your shaved ice now?" Aya Shameimaru felt that he was not human at all. How could he have no emotional intelligence at all?

"Is that something you should say in an interview?"

"I just turned off the recorder, so it's fine!"

Mu Huai glanced at the still-working camera and recorder out of the corner of his eye, knowing that it must be one of his cyber daughters secretly exerting her power in the data space.

"Oh, then shall I feed you?"

"No! It's too late to feed me now, I'm angry!"

Aya Shameimaru thought he would coax her, but to her surprise, he put down his spoon and ate all the remaining shaved ice in one go, finishing it off in just two or three seconds.

Finally, he gave her a smug look.

"Fine, don't eat it then."

Volume 4, "Anything Can Happen in Gensokyo": Chapter 66, The Art of Paparazzi Writing: Taking Out of Context, Extracting Meaning, and Editing

"Mu Huai, I (authentic Gensokyo dialect)! You (authentic Gensokyo dialect)!!"

With his defenses broken, Aya Shameimaru straddled Mu Huai and unleashed a flurry of punches, unaware that Yukari Yakumo, who had been lying on Mu Huai's lap, had vanished in an instant.

Having worn Yakumo Yukari's train for almost half a month, Mu Huai naturally knew that there was only one possibility for her disappearance: he might be doing something with a girl, or engaging in ambiguous behavior.

Her prediction was based on an unclear principle, and the subsequent development of events depended to some extent on whether Mu Huai wanted to take that step. However, having hugged and kissed Shameimaru Aya passionately at the door, he had no reason to let go of this paparazzi Aya, whom he both loved and hated.

Taking advantage of the moment she paused to catch her breath, Mu Huai immediately grabbed her wrist, flipped her over, and pinned her down.

"Wait... what, what do you want to do!?"

"Why don't you take a guess? You'll win a prize if you guess right," he said with a joking smile.

Shameimaru 0 Liu? 肆〡琉器卅陾〤〇八文, after being teased like this, calmed down and realized that she could not break free from his control by strength alone. She tilted her head and looked indifferent.

"It's just a matter of getting shot once or twice, I can't be bothered to guess."

Aren't you going to put up a fight at all?

"Heh." She smirked, her tone full of disdain: "I'm an expert at peeping at you and your girlfriend having sex, I've been online for over 100 hours. I know what kind of play you guys are doing. The more you resist, the more excited you get. I'm not going to do that."

"As expected of my most loyal hater, he even knows all of this."

Mu Huai admired her persistence and took the initiative to let go of her and stand up: "I was just joking. Let's continue the interview."

"Hey?"

Aya Shameimaru was taken aback for a moment, a barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashing at the bottom of her crimson pupils, before she quickly adopted a smug and mocking expression.

"I knew you wouldn't have the guts to force yourself on me, after all, I'm a very popular news reporter in Gensokyo."

"You're right, sometimes public opinion is the most terrifying weapon."

Seeing Mu Huai sitting upright as if nothing had happened, she gritted her teeth in annoyance, cursed him inwardly as a "coward," and sat up, propping herself up on the sofa with her right hand, wanting to say something sarcastic.

Before he could even settle down, he quickly moved closer, pinched Aya Shameimaru's delicate chin, and gently brushed his thumb across her pale pink lips, a hint of amusement in his dark eyes.

"Were you... feeling very disappointed just now?"

"No, no!"

"Stop lying." He used the tip of his tongue to wipe away the beads of sweat that slid down her forehead, whispering in her ear like a devil: "This taste...it tastes like a lie, Wenwen."

"Hey~"

After letting out a short, rapid cry, Aya Shameimaru quickly covered her mouth with both hands and kept moving her buttocks backward.

But Mu Huai pressed on relentlessly, soon leaving her with nowhere to retreat. His left hand was already on her waist, and the heat that made her heart tremble was spreading continuously from there.

Realizing that he had completely fallen into his trap and that he might have been toying with her since the door opened, Aya Shameimaru could only accept her fate.

Her black hair, falling loose at her temples, obscured her gradually reddening cheeks. Her crimson eyes were shrouded in a captivating mist, and her cherry-like lips trembled slightly under Mu Huai's gaze, like glistening jelly.

"If you make me stand up and write a press release today, I'll write in the article that you're no good."

"How could you say something so hot and burning with such an innocent and shy expression?"

"Stop talking nonsense, the interview can't be postponed until tomorrow!"

"Row!"

......

The live broadcast projection screen in Aya Shameimaru's home suddenly turned into black and white speckles, making Ran Houraisan, who was engrossed in watching the show, jump up and down in frustration.

"What's going on? Who unplugged my internet cable?!"

Youyou weakly raised her little hand: "Sister, it seems that only Father has the authority to actively cut off our network."

"Sigh~~ Father is so stingy, he won't even let us see this little bit of footage, ah!! He even turned off the recorder, is he really going to defend us from every angle?"

Komeiji watched as she vented her anger on the Q-version wooden pillow generated by data, and sneered, "Who told you to peek at Daddy taking a shower and get caught? Of course he'll be wary of that."

"Xiaoye, what are you pretending to be, this gentleman? As soon as I shout that there's a good sight for Father, you come running over like a puppy, don't you?"

"I think this is only natural, what do you think, Youyou?"

"I think Sister Xiaoye is right!"

"Tsk, you little sister who only eats and doesn't do any work, I won't call you next time!"
