Chapter 952
"What, you caught the person and taught them a lesson, yet you're still not happy?"
"Those were hired thugs, but the ones actually badmouthing me behind my back haven't been caught at all."
"No way, the trail's gone cold."
"That's exactly why I'm displeased~"
"But I look at you, Sister, and you seem quite pleased right now, looking completely absorbed in it."
"Nonsense, you're talking about physiological pleasure, but I'm talking about psychological displeasure."
Tatsumaki's mouth said she was displeased, but her body was very honest.
Broly massaged her feet to serve her on one hand, while serving Fubuki on the other.
And he wasn't actually very hostile toward those who badmouthed Tatsumaki.
On the contrary, it was precisely because of the twists and turns of negative public opinion targeting Tatsumaki online during this period that the relationship between Tatsumaki and him had progressed by leaps and bounds.
Ever since being invited for a foot massage late at night, until now, Tatsumaki had already been able to accept staying in a room with Fubuki and him late at night to play three-player Dou Dizhu.
"Tatsumaki-nee, how about you come with me to visit Shibabawa tomorrow?"
After finishing a thoroughly satisfying round of Landlord, Broly invited Tatsumaki beside him.
"What are you visiting Shibabawa for, divination?"
Tatsumaki was a bit tired, her small head pillowed on his right arm, looking somewhat like a lazy cat.
"Z-City New District needs a figure with sufficient social influence to help endorse it; I'm preparing to invite Shibabawa over to help hold down this endorsement."
"What does that have to do with me? I'm not that familiar with that old hag Shibabawa; even if I went, I wouldn't be much help, right?"
Tatsumaki's small hand grabbed Broly's fluffy tail, just like a cat playing with a tail; this was something she liked to do afterwards.
"I'm not asking you to help; I'm taking you to get a divination."
"Divine what?"
"The real person badmouthing you behind your back."
"?!"
"Although the real-world clues are cut off, isn't there still the mystical method of divination to find people? Tomorrow you and I go to Shibabawa's place, and I'll have her divine the information on the person badmouthing you behind your back."
"No, can that even be divined?"
Fubuki, pillowed on the other arm, couldn't help but ask.
"Unclear, so at first I didn't think of relying on divination to find someone; now the trail's gone cold, can't find the mastermind behind the scenes, therefore let's try using divination for Virtual Space Tracking."
Broly answered very frankly.
"Aren't you afraid you might track the wrong person?"
"Isn't Shibabawa's divination ability very reliable?"
"I've only heard she's very reliable at divining major disaster events; as for other things, never heard of it."
"Doesn't matter, do the Virtual Space Tracking first; after tracking, just verify carefully."
"Get the result first, then find evidence; that works too."
Speaking of this, Fubuki paused, looking at her biological sister playing with the tail opposite her, and complained to Broly.
"Don't just pay attention to Sister; you have to look after this side too."
"Yes, my Lady Wife Fubuki!"
Broly answered, and began gently stroking Fubuki's waist.
Gentle caressing afterwards can significantly increase happiness.
Shibabawa's home is a manor built on a mountain, occupying about twenty mu; there is no garden of contending blossoms, but there is a lawn suitable for playing soccer and golf; in the center of the lawn stands a mansion villa of some years, looking not luxurious but rather simple and unadorned.
"This is quite a good place."
Broly overlooked this manor from the sky, and was rather satisfied with the environment here.
"You like this kind of house?"
Tatsumaki flew beside him, looking at him in surprise.
"It's spacious enough here; whether practicing fists or psychic powers, you can let your hands and feet go freely, and the air is fresher than the city; Tatsumaki-nee, don't you like it?"
Broly retorted with a question.
"I didn't say I dislike it; just, if you like this kind of environment, why did you still buy a house in the city?"
"Buying a house was for the convenience of finding a wife; B-City was to pursue Fubuki, Z-City was to wait for Seksu."

"Then where are Mosquito Girl and Vivian's houses?"
"I have a hot spring villa in the Hot Spring Area; the two of them like soaking in hot springs more."
"It's soaking in hot springs with you, right."
"Tatsumaki-nee, want to go try it next time?"
"Next time, for now let's go down first.
Tatsumaki didn't know what she thought of, her face slightly red, and she flew down first.
"Mr. Broly, Miss Tatsumaki————"
At the mansion villa's front door, a middle-aged butler in a suit and leather shoes saw the two descending unconventionally, wasn't surprised at all, and directly went up to receive them.
"Lord Shibabawa is already waiting inside for the arrival of you two!"
"This enthusiastic?"
"This is a must; Mr. Broly, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say you are Lord Shibabawa's Regenerative Parents."
The butler leading the way ahead explained in response to Tatsumaki's puzzlement.
As the proverb goes, even a third-rank official at the Prime Minister's gate commands respect.
When Sibabawa was still alive, this butler of hers was also treated with courtesy by many upper-class society figures, all for the sake of securing one of the few public divination opportunities Sibabawa offered each year.
But after Sibabawa died, he went from having a constant stream of visitors to a deserted doorway.
If one were to speak of someone genuinely happy about Sibabawa's resurrection, this butler at the front would definitely be one of them.
"Broly, you're here. Sit down first, eat some snacks. I'll come over once I finish this song."
Following the butler into the hall, he saw a young woman wearing fashionable sportswear, sweating profusely on a dance machine.
"This is that old hag Sibabawa?!"
Tatsumaki watched Sibabawa twisting her body wildly, dancing on the dance machine, and was somewhat stunned.
"After Lord Sibabawa regained her youth, she deeply felt how fleeting youth is, so she cherishes the opportunity to have regained her youth very much.
Now not only is her appearance that of a young person, even her mindset is that of a young person. Whatever things are popular among young people, Lord Sibabawa plays them all."
While speaking, the butler pointed at the latest-model VR game console in the hall, and other devices at the forefront of the times.
When Tatsumaki's phone was still an old flip phone, this divination granny who had lived a second life was already playing games on the latest-model smartphone. Truly worthy of an elder who chokes on sugar, flashes a V-sign in photos, and shouts "Oh yeah."
"The feeling of dancing and sweating freely in the morning is really comfortable~"
A dance song finished quickly. Sibabawa, sweat beading on her forehead, took the towel the butler handed her to wipe her sweat, plopped down on the sofa chair opposite, and asked Broly the reason for his visit.
Broly didn't beat around the bush, directly explaining that he wanted her to endorse the future Z-City New Station, to attract upper-class society funds.
"No problem. Since it's a city you invested in and built, its future is bound to be limitless. This old hag doesn't have much else, but the ability to speak up and help still exists."
After listening, Sibabawa agreed without the slightest hesitation, directly patting her chest in promise. However, the scene of the meatballs under her sportswear shaking *duanduanduan* from the pat made Tatsumaki stare straight at them.
【Damn, how did I never notice before that this shriveled old hag, in her youth, was actually this plump————】
Sibabawa's unintentional action inflicted tons of damage on Tatsumaki, who had come along beside her.
"Also, I want to ask you to help divine something. Recently, someone hired a water army online to lead the rhythm against Tatsumaki. The identity and whereabouts of the mastermind behind the scenes————"
Having settled the endorsement matter, Broly brought up the second purpose of his visit.
"Tatsumaki, so it's this girl. No wonder your marriage fate has twists and turns————"
Looking at Tatsumaki sitting next to Broly, and their intimate appearance, Sibabawa realized.
"But there are only twists and turns, no great disaster. Mr. Broly really is powerful."
Sibabawa praised sincerely.
"Hey, you youth-restored old hag, cut the crap. Just say whether you can divine for me or not!"
Tatsumaki realized this guy had seen through her harem situation, and immediately interrupted Sibabawa's words with some dissatisfaction.
"I can. My divination jutsu is number one under heaven. Butler, bring my crystal ball over. Let me properly divine for this anxious little girl."
"Yes, Lord Sibabawa."
The butler acknowledged and soon brought over a completely transparent crystal ball.
Sibabawa placed her hand on the crystal ball and began inquiring about the details of Tatsumaki being badmouthed online.
According to her, the more complete this basic information, the simpler and more precise her divination would be.
"Of course, precise doxxing can't be done. Being able to do precise doxxing isn't called divination, that's called reading a script.
However, divining the general location and general image of the mastermind causing trouble behind the scenes is still no problem.
Bili lu, sa nuo luo————"
As Sibabawa spoke, she began chanting an incantation that was completely incomprehensible and somewhat mumbo-jumbo.
"What are you chanting?"
Broly asked curiously.
"Uh, sorry, force of habit. This is an incantation used to create a mysterious divination atmosphere, but in itself it's just some useless pronunciations."
Hearing the question, Sibabawa scratched her head a bit embarrassedly and gave an explanation.
Hearing this, Broly and Tatsumaki both looked at each other somewhat speechlessly.
Still, gotta admit, this atmosphere-building technique is really quite deceiving.
"I saw it, I saw it. The mastermind behind the scenes who hired the water army to badmouth Tatsumaki is right at————?!"
Sibabawa suddenly paused, her expression also turning somewhat astonished.
"Sibabawa, what did you divine? Why did you suddenly stop talking?"
【I'd like to say, but the location I divined is right in my home. How am I supposed to say it? Admit that I myself am the mastermind behind the scenes?】
"Cough, you two wait. The divination just now was disturbed. I need to divine again."
Sibabawa stood up, facing the crystal ball on the table, and began waving her arms and claws.
"Fate trajectory that has already occurred, manifest before me!"
The crystal ball blazed with light. Broly could feel Sibabawa's Qi rapidly integrating into the crystal ball.
Only Sibabaki's reaction was somewhat subtle. She stared wide-eyed at the crystal ball. After the crystal ball dimmed, she bit her index finger, dripped blood, and divined again. After divining repeatedly three times, she finally stopped.
"You old hag, just because you turned young, did your divination ability also decrease, so you can't divine it out?
If that's the case, I won't make things difficult for you either, just don't waste our time."
"No, my divination ability hasn't decreased. I've already divined it out."
Sibabawa shook her head.
"Then what's the result?"
Tatsumaki pressed the question.
"The mastermind badmouthing you is right here."
"Where?"
Tatsumaki frowned, then seemed to think of something, and asked.
"Wait, you don't mean Broly, do you?"
Without waiting for Shibabawa to answer, Tatsumaki glared at Broly, huffing with anger.
"Damn it, I didn't expect you to be so despicable, using any means necessary to get me, and even crying thief to catch the thief!"
"Ah, it wasn't me, I didn't do it!"
Broly hurriedly raised both hands, indicating his innocence.
"When you were playing with my feet, you were very excited, do you think I would believe your words?
Now confess honestly, and I can still deal with you leniently.
But if you refuse to admit it, don't blame me for making you look bad!"
The Happiness Value didn't drop; Tatsumaki's current situation might not be as angry as she acts, merely putting on a show.
But even so, Broly felt somewhat wronged; after all, he truly hadn't done that kind of thing, even if the result caused by badmouthing Tatsumaki was beneficial to him.
【Playing with feet? Young people really know how to play————】
"Cough cough, Tatsumaki girl, please listen to this old woman for a moment."
Shibabawa inserted herself into the conversation.
"You want to speak for this bad guy?"
Tatsumaki glared over.
"No, what I want to say is, the mastermind prophesied is here, but it isn't Broly."
"If it's not him, then who? Could it be you?"
Tatsumaki obviously didn't believe those words.
"It's not me either, but it should be someone related to me, Butler————"
"Lady Shibabawa, please give your orders."
"Go, call that brat Fuji over for me."
"Yes."
The Butler acknowledged and hurriedly walked out.
"Who is Fuji?"
"My grandson."
"You mean he is the mastermind who hired the Internet Trolls to badmouth me?"
Tatsumaki's mind turned very fast, asking directly.
"If my prophecy didn't make a mistake, eight or nine out of ten."
"But why? I don't seem to know your grandson, right?"
"I don't know either; we have to wait for him to come and ask him personally."
Not long after, the Butler brought a young man over.
Judging by the other party's appearance, he should be around twenty years old.
"Grandma, I don't know what business you have calling me?"
The young man saw Tatsumaki and Broly, the two people at the side; his pupils showed an obvious shrinking reaction, but on his face he didn't reveal the slightest trace of emotion, respectfully inquiring about the purpose of Shibabawa calling him over.
"I have something I want to ask you; why did you hire Internet Trolls to badmouth this Tatsumaki girl on the Internet?"
Shibabawa asked straightforwardly.
"Grandma, your words make this grandson a bit unable to understand."
Fuji showed a puzzled expression; his demeanor was so natural it didn't look like an act at all.
But the next moment, a foot kicked over.
"You stinking brat, you actually still dare to play dumb with this old woman?"
Before Broly and Tatsumaki could act, Shibabawa directly struck out with a heavy leg.
"Do you think your grandma's prophecy capability is fake? Dare to not acknowledge it? Believe it or not, I'll strip your pants and whip your butt with a rattan cane?!"
Fuji:
Bloodline Suppression, unconvinced but can't do anything about it.
"I admit it, I hired people to do it."
Fuji, not wanting to be whipped on the butt by his own grandma with a rattan cane, admitted it very straightforwardly.
"Speak, why did you do this?"
"I just wanted Miss Tatsumaki to realize the Hero Association's lack of responsibility; facing major public opinion pressure, they only know how to pass the black pot to heroes who seriously do practical work.
F
"The reason?"
"I created an organization called NeoHeroes, wanting to take the place of the current rotten Hero Association————
