Chapter 530

"Alright, is that enough? Thank you for your hard work."

At that moment, a young man under thirty appeared beside Miyawaki Sakura, raising Xiao Yinghua's vigilance.

This man's original name was Zhou Xiao, with half Chinese heritage, originally a comedian under Yoshimoto Kogyo agency, engaged in rakugo and manzai for several years, meaning he could freshen up the theater's level.

However, last month, this man named Zhou Xiao was formally acknowledged as a son by National Diet member Suo Masao, confirming him as his illegitimate son and officially renamed Suo Hinata, reportedly to inherit Suo Masao's entire power after Suo Ryohei is completely finished.

Naturally, things did not go smoothly; such a sudden heir is hard to gain factional approval, while Suo Hinata himself is a hardcore idol fan, relying on his father's resources and power to vigorously do what he couldn't before—intimately interact with his favorite idols.

Public Security Police, Uesugi Shiro, Suo Hinata, the darkness behind YKC48, the power behind Hirate, Fuji TV.

Xiao Yinghua discovered she had unknowingly been drawn into a terrifying vortex.

At that moment, Uesugi Muneyuki, Bai Chuan Mai, and Saito Asuka, who had arrived at the waiting room, quickly noticed Murakadono Arimura Sumi sitting in the waiting room sipping tea, only to see her wearing a heavy kimono unsuitable for the season, blowing air conditioning, appearing somewhat impatient: "What exactly are you guys doing here?"

"Nothing much, mainly praying at Izumo Mountain Shrine, filming outdoor ads for Shuzenji Onsen, participating in the summer fireworks festival." Uesugi Muneyuki casually said: "Oh right, the script will have a supernatural exorcism segment, but it doesn't say what it is."

"Supernatural exorcism? What is that?" Unexpectedly, Murakadono became interested.

After absorbing Professor Zaizen, she seemed to have changed, becoming more interested in the world of cockroaches.

Uesugi Muneyuki had no choice but to explain what "supernatural exorcism" was once over.

"Boring." Murakadono listened and felt quite disappointed, but she quickly became more energized: "Uesugi, I order you, reverse-exorcise them."

"Huh?" Uesugi Muneyuki blinked, but he quickly reacted.

Interesting!

What kind of supernatural is the supernatural the production team cooked up?

Let them see what real supernatural is!

After hearing Uesugi Muneyuki and Murakadono Arimura Sumi's ideas, Mai Xuejie nearly laughed until she bent over, but she immediately realized the business opportunity and huge exposure, unable to resist fiercely patting Uesugi Muneyuki's shoulder, laughing until her branches trembled: "Muneyuki, Koyama Old Ghost really should kowtow to you."

"If you do this, Fuji TV's ratings for this year will surely be first again."

The night on Izu Peninsula deepened, the retro villa selected by the production team appeared especially tranquil under the searchlights, also especially suitable for "haunting."

The director of the "Hand of God" production team hid behind the monitor, his mouth corners unable to suppress his delight. He imagined national actress Bai Chuan Mai losing color, rushing into her boyfriend's arms, and University of Tokyo forensic expert Uesugi Muneyuki forcing composure while cold sweat streamed—this rating, secured!

Recording officially began.

In the villa's main hall, the camera's red light lit up, soft light shining on host Tei Reiji's face.

Today's Fuji TV main anchor wore the signature professional suit, a set slightly light beige linen-blend suit skirt, flesh-tone ultra-thin seamless Lycra stockings perfectly wrapping her legs, black lacquered pointed-toe high heels firmly stepping on the sidewalk's bricks and stones, maintaining a professional smile, voice sweet with a hint of deliberately cultivated mystery:

"Welcome everyone to the 'Hand of God' Izu special edition tonight, what we seek is the century-old tragic love legend entangled in this villa—the dancing girl Aizome who waited in vain for her lover's return, said to still be wandering here—

Opposite, members of the Kameyama Company production team nodded in agreement.

This segment, simply put, is not complicated, similar to many Japanese supernatural variety shows; they have already prepared the entire retro villa in advance, with various prepared supernatural phenomena appearing, to let Uesugi and Bai Ma gradually feel uneasy, then suspicious, then confirm something indeed hides in this villa, finally through a carefully designed haunting bridge segment to scare the two, then the production team rushes in holding signs, shouting "Exorcism successful"!

Tei Reiji smoothly recited the lines, delivering the introduction, she skillfully built the atmosphere, first recording her own segment.

Such supernatural exorcism programs require pre-recording an introduction and reminders for various "supernatural phenomenon occurrence" nodes, giving viewers psychological preparation, then Uesugi Bai Ma officially enters the vat.

In the old, aged retro villa, Tei Reiji cautiously stepped slowly, the wooden floor emitting creaking sounds, while introducing and rendering the atmosphere, her mind already imagining what to say when knocking on Uesugi's door at night.

However, just as she passed a certain staircase, the tatami mat below had a depression, Tei Reiji's step faltered and she swayed, and she also mispronounced a syllable in her mouth.

"Ee-yah~!"

Fuji TV's main anchor was startled, she quickly lowered her head to apologize, then looked at the on-site production team, using her gaze to ask whether they needed to re-record?

Sure enough, a clear, calm, slightly stern, and extremely familiar female voice came from the production team, responding extremely close to her ear, even feeling a hint of icy breath:

"Tei-chan! This take doesn't pass! Do it again!"

"Private mosaic private mosaic! I'll redo right away, there's a small pit in the tatami mat here on the ground, I'll avoid it later." Tei Reiji instinctively apologized.

That voice continued, with the professional announcer's harsh critique on tone: "Besides, the pause after 'wandering' is too short, lacking suspense. You should take a deep breath, pause at least half a second, letting the audience's anticipation build up.

Your current broadcasting standard has declined."

"Private mosaic private mosaic!" Tei Reiji felt wronged, having become Fuji TV's main anchor and often being named by Uesugi Muneyuki, the station dare not raise their voice at her, who is this, so disrespectful?

"Tei-san, although she's harsh, she's right!" The production team's director nodded repeatedly, thinking Tei San, though good-looking and high-level, has recently been a bit aloof, but no one dared to say it; now someone dares to criticize her face-to-face is excellent, we don't need to offend anyone, yet still achieve the effect: "This program is the highest-standard production of our station, please all muster your spirits!"

"Hai ya!" The site responded in unison, "Hand of God" is indeed Fuji TV's absolute flagship program, Koyama President personally oversees it every term.

At this moment, the director and Tei Reiji suddenly realized, this voice sounds a bit familiar!

Right, who dares to scold Fuji TV's main anchor Tei San?

Everyone turned around.

Only to see, among the production team crowd, unknown when, a woman in a neat professional suit, brows slightly furrowed—none other than the deceased Fuji TV news anchor, Hironaka Mariko!

She even held a clapperboard in her hand, her gaze sharp as before, dissatisfiedly staring at everyone: "What are you looking at me for? Continue filming! If you don't settle Uesugi Bai Chuan, she'll come back!"

"Hiro—·Hironaka senior?!"

Tei Reiji's script card "shala" scattered everywhere, the blood on her face instantly drained, pupils dilated from extreme terror. The scream sound effect caught in her throat, turning into a silly "" sound.

"Hiro, Hironaka san???" The on-site cameraman's voice trembled with tears.

"Hiro, Hironaka???" A chill, from the director's tailbone instantly surged to the heavenly spirit cover, the script doesn't have this section?

"Who, who is it? Who arranged it? I!"

The informed staff on site looked at each other in blank dismay, hairs standing on end

They never arranged this "actor"!

Moreover, Hironaka Mariko's professional critique and that tone, simply cannot be acted out!

"Ah Ah Ah!!"

"Ghost ah ah ah!!"

"Haunting, haunting ah ah ah!!"

In the retro villa, a burst of ghostly wails and wolf howls!
