Aunt Xiangzi, how did you manage to live?

"How could that be? I'm not the Nagasaki Motoyo who used to desperately try to keep Shoko with me for CRYCHIC anymore, Taki-chan...!"

Seeing that Li Xi had started to question his position for no apparent reason, even someone as thoughtful as Nagasaki Motoyo panicked and reiterated his stance.

"I have found something more important and more worthy of protection than CRYCHIC..."

"Oh? I thought you would say something like, even if it was just to maintain your dignity, that you would never do such a thing again."

"Well, well... that's pretty much the same logic... Speaking of which, has Chu Hua really not contacted anyone else? Not to mention Xiang Zi, I thought at least she wouldn't run away from Xiao Jun."

Su Shi rolled her eyes and very naturally shifted the topic back to a girl who had already been labeled a "blonde loser" in her mind.

"Probably not. That guy probably feels bad for leaking the secret to Kazama, right? Even if he himself doesn't really care about this kind of thing, he probably still feels embarrassed to face Kazama. After all, if I had leaked the secret on impulse, I would also feel ashamed to face people."

"Taki-chan... and Hatsuka-san are actually the same kind of people in a sense. They are both girls with high morals and high self-esteem."

"Ha, I don't think I would reveal someone else's secret on a whim. Even if Kazama herself doesn't care, what she did was still unethical."

"Okay-moon F chair different 0 doubt chess (four y) Wu ⑨ Si Jiu dang [okay.

Su Shi smiled and waved her hand symbolically to soothe Li Xi's somewhat indignant feelings. She knew that Li Xi was acting as indignant as if she were the one involved, simply because she had completely regarded Kazama as one of her own.

To outsiders, Shiina Ritsuki may seem cold and aloof, but once she considers someone a true ally, she becomes incredibly protective and enthusiastic—is this guy actually the one with a real Akatsuki fetish?

Su Shi only silently complained to herself, but in any case, what Li Xi brought her should be considered good news.

In her eyes, her formidable rival, Mitsuka, who was evenly matched with her, was defeated by this trivial matter... So neither Mutsu, who was the mother, nor Shoko, who was currently focused on winning back Mitsuka, were opponents she needed to worry about.

So now it's time for her to show off her skills.

However, Nagasaki Motoyo, who was secretly pleased with herself, overlooked one point.

The blue-haired girl she had brought here to keep a close watch on was now shamelessly developing her lewd tendencies right under her nose.

Chapter 50 If you don't court death, you won't die.

"So what you mean, Banami, is... that there's a voice in your head that reports to you every day what I'm doing, and like a game, it reports my progress in real time, reminds me when I should deal with whom, and gives me punishment if I fail a mission?"

In the corridor leading from the café to the restroom, a boy leaning against the wall with his hands crossed in front of him whispered these speculations—to the point that he himself was speechless and choked up at the end.

"Hello? We're living in the real world now, not in a system novel or web novel world, right, Banami-kun? Have you been reading too many web novels lately?"

"Ughh ...

The blue-haired girl sensed the faint distrust and suspicion in the boy's eyes, and somewhat embarrassed and angry, she even raised her voice considerably.

Anzu was indeed prepared to tell the truth, feeling misunderstood and despised, but if Kazama had this attitude, it would make her a little unhappy.

"Alright, alright. So you mean that my growing rapport with Chu Hua and Su Shili Xi was all orchestrated by that system residing in your mind? Pfft..."

"That's exactly what happened—you were laughing at me, weren't you? You almost burst out laughing, weren't you! I wasn't lying, after all, who would make up such a convoluted lie to make you happy!"

"Yeah, who would be so bored... It feels like only Ms. Hanami, who wants to hang out with me but is too embarrassed to say it or even more embarrassed to ask me out, would do that. Don't you think so?"

"Slander! This is utter slander! Ugh... Why does Kazama think everything you say makes sense?! I wasn't making this up!!!"

Having lost in both momentum and debate, Yanagi Anzu, scratching her head and blushing with anger, looked even more miserable than if she had eaten a pound of excrement.

It's not terrible to be rejected when you tell the truth; what's most annoying is when a smooth-talking person will fabricate the truth you tell and comfortably deduce that it's just a lie you made up—that's much more infuriating to Banami than a stubborn and unreasonable old man.

"If you're not making this up... then you'd better find a way to prove it to me, Banai."

Compared to Anana Hachimi, who was red-faced and looked like she was about to raise her fist and charge at him, Kazama was much calmer.

"Since you said that this system records things about me and can even track everything about me in real time—then find a way to prove it to me."

He raised his hand and offered the most reasonable suggestion.

"What are the names of my family members? Where was I born? What is my blood type? How old am I this year? What is my birthday?"

Even if Xiao is a traveler from the future who has traveled to this time and space, it doesn't mean that he will believe in all supernatural phenomena.

Since Banami claims that she is bound to a system related to herself, filling in these blanks should be a piece of cake for her.

"Uh... well..."

As expected, the woman he found particularly suspicious, Yanami Anna, stammered when faced with this series of questions.

"How would I know about this... This personal data system never reported it to me..."

Her hushed murmurs did not escape Kazama's ears and went straight to him.

"Hmph... I think it's because you can't come up with anything!"

"No way!! Kazama, I already had a guess about who you are!!"

Having probably anticipated that her statement would be questioned, Ms. Banami, well-prepared, forced herself to remain calm and composed, extending her finger with an air of nonchalance. Her seemingly composed posture was as upright as a spiky-haired lawyer shouting "Objection!" in court.

"You, your relationship with Suze-chan, Aine-chan, and Hatsuka-chan..."

Miss Banai paused slightly, looking a little uncertain.

After all, the system hadn't told her about Kazama's background, nor had it revealed the relationship between this boy and the other band girls. She could only piece together their social network from these fragmented details.

However, there was one thing that Banami had already made up her mind about.

Based on previous photos and videos, Kazama has close relationships with several women who resemble the girls in the band, and there are even videos and footage of him from his childhood.

So, he really must be...

"You're a time traveler from the future, right?"

"Well………"

The boy raised an eyebrow at Banami's speculation, but after a moment of silence, he smiled and clapped his hands in agreement with her guess.

"An interesting guess, then what?"

"And then, and then..."

Kazama must have some kind of family relationship with one of the band girls, otherwise he would never have called the wildcat girl Rakuna "auntie," let alone taken a family photo with the future Nagasaki Motoyo.

So... there's only one truth!

Having already made up her mind, this time, Banami spoke with certainty and firmness about her guess, which was still far from being confirmed—

"Kazama, you... are actually the children they adopted and raised together after they grew up, right? In the future, you will be a happy, large family-like group... That's why you value each person in the group so much, right!"

Just as the detective's speculation was being put to rest, Akatsuki, whose true identity had been revealed, fell silent.

However, after a brief silence...

"………puff."

He suddenly bent over, clutched his stomach, and chuckled softly.

"What are you laughing at?! Am I wrong?!"

"Puhahaha—how should I put it, Banami, you have quite a vivid imagination."

Kazama, who almost burst into laughter, straightened his back after a good laugh and even wiped away the tears that had involuntarily welled up in his eyes.

Well, it's not fair to say that Banami's guess is completely wrong; in a strict sense, it's actually quite accurate. However, it does have some overlap, but unfortunately, the line of thought is quite ingenious.

If she can guess this layer just by guessing, then she is indeed quite capable.

"Waaah...you're still making fun of me!"

Seeing that the boy still didn't take her opinion seriously, Banami was scratching her head in frustration, almost driven to madness. It was at this moment—

[Warning: Do not disclose the existence of this system to the host. Otherwise, the system will take appropriate disciplinary action. Warning.]

The voice that suddenly appeared in his mind froze the indignation on Banami's face.

She had a sudden inspiration and came up with a brilliant idea.
