A super great writer in the second dimension

　“Then let’s talk about it…” Nan Lingyin kept staring at the rearview mirror the whole time, which showed the profile of Sanzenin Arashi.

　Sanzenin Arashi suddenly said, "It's about the little bird."

　"Wh-what?" Nan Lingyin suddenly paused.

　"Kotori confessed to me." Sanzenin Arashi squinted. "She said she likes me."

　Nan Lingyin's eyes widened immediately.

　Then, a feeling of shock and annoyance rushed to my head.

　Instantly, Nan Lingyin's body trembled involuntarily.

　Little bird... this... what is this... this...

　Nan Lingyin said incredulously, "What on earth is this all about?"

　Sanzenin Arashi slowly said, "Kotori confessed to me a month ago, saying she wanted to date me. That's pretty much it. Should I tell you about it?"

　It took Nan Lingyin more than ten minutes to finally process what she had just said: her daughter liked a man, and that man was the one sitting in the driver's seat.

　Nan Lingyin sat in the back seat with a livid face. She was furious and felt very resentful, but then she suddenly realized something.

　Whom is this resentment directed at?

　She really wanted to point her finger at the man and say some harsh words, but suddenly realized she didn't know how to start.

　After holding it in for a long time, Nan Lingyin finally let out a long breath. She knew that getting angry here was useless, and given this man's personality, she wouldn't get any good feedback by doing so.

　Nan Lingyin becomes exceptionally calm whenever she is involved in matters concerning her daughter.

　……

　The next morning, Arashi Sanzenin went to the NVR studio.

　Sebastian will give the results tomorrow, but Sanzenin Arashi isn't in a hurry; he has more important things to do right now.

　Previously, they planned to steal Ubisoft's core technology while A Certain Magical Index was being made—this society is cold-blooded and cannibalistic.

　Regarding taking such a thing, Sanzenin Arashi could only say...

　Would you be stupid to turn down meat that's practically handed to you?

　Ubisoft has been researching for a long time, and after several years of accumulation, it has developed into its current technology. Sanzenin Arashi doesn't expect Bessim, the head of the Japanese region, to have it. To put it bluntly, the contents of that USB drive were just something he did on the spur of the moment.

　A few days ago, Ryunosuke Akasaka prepared the tools and materials for collecting useful data, which were sent from Africa and arrived today.

　SP just called to inform me that the items are being delivered from Narita International Airport to Chiba.

　Sanzenin Arashi sat in front of the computer like a bachelor, not minding at all that he asked the beautiful employee Ito Shizuka to go and buy him breakfast. He made himself a cup of coffee, took a few sips, and soon the door was opened.

　A bag of toast, a few fried eggs, and three meat buns from the supermarket, paired with a cup of fragrant coffee, Sanzenin Arashi happily finished her breakfast.

　Deep down, he hoped that Yukinoshita's child was his, because Sanzenin Arashi felt that he seemed to be very dependent on Yukino, and the thought of her giving birth to his child...

　Sanzenin Arashi felt incredibly excited!

　But at this moment, when he thought about Nan Lingyin, he wondered if he had done something wrong.

　Last night, I only told Nan Lingyin the most basic things. To be honest, now that Kotori's phone is in the hands of the chairman's wife, Sanzenin Arashi feels that her previous behavior was simply ridiculous.

　He suddenly remembered that no matter what happened, he could handle it himself.

　Isn't resolving a problem exactly what I'm best at?

　He believed that there was a solution to every problem.

　Not long after, the office door opened and an SP walked in.

　SP was dressed casually and carrying a briefcase.

　"Young Master, the items have arrived."

　"Okay, you can put it over there." Sanzenin Arashi waved his hand.

　"Yes." SP nodded in acknowledgment, walked straight to Sanzenin Arashi, and placed the briefcase behind his chair.

　There were no unnecessary movements throughout the entire process, and he didn't even glance at the combination lock until he left.

　Not even a single one!

　After SP left, Sanzenin Arashi picked up the briefcase, weighed it in her hand, and placed it directly on the table.

　call……

　I let out a deep breath, temporarily putting everything else aside.

　The combination lock has six number slots. After Sanzenin Arashi turned it, it clicked open.

　First, the upper part of the combination lock automatically rises.

　Just like those things in science fiction games that store key items, this box is actually fully automated!

　The case is covered with a layer of black cowhide. After removing the top layer, there is a metal base inside.

　The silver-gray metal pedestal was inlaid with seven or eight grooves, each of which was sealed with layers of metal. When Sanzenin Arashi pressed on a certain groove, it suddenly popped open, revealing what was inside.

　A metal box popped out of the groove.

　After seeing what was inside, Sanzenin Arashi nodded in satisfaction.

　This safe, if attacked by a nuclear bomb.

　The outer layer will vaporize in an instant, revealing the internal structure of the metal.

　The first layer will melt instantly, and then... all the items inside the box will remain unharmed.

　What was being transported under this level of protection... Sanzenin Arashi had no idea.

　"It's just collecting a set of personal codes of conduct, does it have to be so complicated..." Sanzenin Arashi opened his mouth, tossed the small metal box into the air, and then unlocked it.

　"watch?"

　There's a digital watch inside, similar to an iWatch.

　After fiddling with it for a while, Sanzenin Arashi finally figured out what it was for.

　..

484. Holy crap!!!

　Ryunosuke Akasaka made a special phone call.

　—After putting this on the target, and then having them complete a CG production process, this 'watch' can collect everything we need.

　It's very simple: just give this thing to the production team of A Certain Magical Index.

　The more core the production team, the more valuable the information they gather.

　Sanzenin Arashi chuckled lightly; Akasaka Ryunosuke's explanation was simple and easy to understand.

　The thought of Ubisoft's core production team wearing this, allowing them to effortlessly acquire a world-class team, made Sanzenin Arashi feel a little smug.

　However, given Akasaka Ryunosuke's cautious approach to transportation, including the construction of anti-nuclear facilities, Sanzenin Arashi had no choice but to proceed with caution.

　Thinking of this, Sanzenin Arashi asked Akasaka Ryunosuke, "You've preserved this thing so carefully, even using anti-biochemical equipment and adding an antimatter weapon coating to the outside. This means it's extremely delicate and absolutely cannot be handled roughly, right?"

　Akasaka Ryunosuke was silent for a moment, then said, "It's not like that..."

　"Huh?" Sanzenin Arashi was taken aback. "This box set is worth over 100 million yen, it's a special item used to store top-secret national equipment, and you're telling me it's not important?"

　"Huh?" Ryunosuke Akasaka was stunned for a moment. "Why didn't you say so earlier... the packaging costs should all be deducted from my salary!!!"

　pat.

　Sanzenin Arashi simply hung up the phone, pretending she hadn't heard anything.

　Ryunosuke Akasaka didn't say anything!

　He took all of these things apart and threw them into his bag—after all, they wouldn't break if he dropped them!

　This box is still usable for a while, it all depends on someone's mood. Who knows, maybe they'll return it to Ryunosuke Akasaka—but I doubt he'd be that kind.

　I'm quite looking forward to the Sanzenin Arashi performance in Hawaii.

　Azure sky! Slightly salty sea breeze! A boundless expanse of deep blue ocean! And most importantly…

　A beautiful scene unfolds on this relaxing beach, featuring a lovely older woman!

　Unfortunately……

　Thinking about it, Sanzenin Arashi simply lay down on the table and took a nap. Just kidding... She's flying tomorrow, and jet lag will make her throw up!

　Before embarking on such an international trip, the safest course of action is... to sleep!

　Yes, it's that simple.

　No matter where you're going, whether it's the US or Lebanon, just get a good night's sleep the day before!

　Sanzenin Arashi's heart was as calm as still water, and she quickly fell asleep.

　During this time, the world will continue to turn, and it will not stop moving forward because any small gear is missing.

　What woke Sanzenin Arashi was a cacophony of ringing bells. —Because she was waiting for Sebastian's report, she had deliberately set the bell to its loudest setting, and even 'safely' turned the volume up to the maximum.

　When that voice, which sounded like a banshee's scream, rang out, Sanzenin Arashi sat up with a start.

　Although the sound was rather unpleasant to hear, it gave him a jolt, because he had specially noted down Sebastian's ringtone yesterday.

　At this moment, Sanzenin Arashi stared at her phone, not immediately sliding to answer.

　Sebastian called, which meant that the investigation into Yukinoshita Haruno was over, and Sanzenin Arashi was nervous at this moment.

　After hesitating for a moment, he answered the phone.

　Sebastian said over the phone, "The basic situation has been investigated, and we will now begin the report."

　"explain."

　“Understood,” Sebastian said. “Miss Yukinoshita is currently living in a Class A villa area in Hawaii and has hired a female doctor named Kasugano Mari to take care of her.”

　Sanzenin Arashi frowned. "Wait a minute."

　"Master?"

　"When did Yukino Yukinoshita become able to afford a villa? The cheapest villas in Hawaii cost at least $1.5 million, right? And in a Class A coastal area, it's at least $8 million. Where did she get the money?"

　One million five hundred thousand dollars would be more than one hundred million yen, right?

　In coastal areas, you can't buy a villa for less than a billion yen.

　She kept this trip a secret from her family; even Yukino Yukinoshita didn't know about it.

　Where did she get the money?

　The woman was spending money of dubious origin, which made Sanzenin Arashi a little jealous.

　Sebastian asked curiously, "Isn't this your house, young master?"

　"Huh?" Sanzenin Arashi paused for a moment before finally remembering.

　I did agree to that; I could choose any villa I wanted overseas.

　There's also the yacht, which Grandpa seems to have handed over to her as well.

　"Now comes the crucial part," Sebastian solemnly reminded him.

　Sanzenin Arashi's expression turned solemn.

　“According to our investigation, Ms. Yukinoshita went fishing for large fish in the nearby waters and then moved into the villa area,” Sebastian said. “At that time, it was confirmed that Ms. Yukinoshita was pregnant.”

　Sanzenin Arashi shuddered, her hand trembling. "So... she clearly told me that she adopted the child, but in reality... she gave birth to it herself?"

　"That's right, that's the situation. We specifically investigated the local hospital and found that Ms. Yukinoshita had a precipitous delivery a few days ago. After that, there were no major problems, and she gave birth to a normal baby girl. She was then registered three days later."

　Sanzenin Arashi's heart skipped a beat. A sudden childbirth? That could be fatal.

　No wonder her voice sounded weak and insecure when she called; now I understand...

　My thoughts are finally completely clear.

　Yukino's child, which she used to name herself.

　“…” Sanzenin Arashi was silent for a moment, “What do you mean?”

　Sebastian's intelligence reports were all based on objective procedures and were only presented to the young master. The person who actually drew the conclusions was Sanzenin Arashi himself.
