Chapter 532: , you came at just the right time!

As Uesugi Muneyuki was also startled, the entire filming site completely collapsed, the commotion so loud it even disturbed the nearby village, all staff members were somewhat dazed, urgently calling in nearby police to search inside and out.

However, the female lead of the Odaiba Building hanging corpse case, Hironaka Mariko, who suddenly appeared, the victim of the Yoshimoto Kogyo murder case, Miyahara Toru, and the legendary "Snow Maiden Princess" of Chiba Disneyland Theme Park were all nowhere to be seen at this moment.

The police on the scene suspected this was a case of mass "hysteria," even mocking Fuji TV for scaring themselves with their paranormal program, and after confirming no personnel casualties, they left.

But the Fuji TV variety show team and the members who participated in the filming deeply knew this was absolutely not hysteria!

Not to mention, Hironaka Mariko could naturally be disguised by someone playing her, but her own ability and attention to detail in broadcasting cannot be faked! Moreover, Miyahara Toru's comedy routine cannot be faked!

Being so startled, the entire "Hand of God" could not be recorded, the variety show team and performers all needed to see a psychologist, at this time Mai Xuejie said it was perfect, the nearby Izumo Mountain Shinai is very effective! I'll arrange for you to participate in the exorcism purification ritual!

"Please, I beg you!" the variety show team director wept tears, almost crawling in pleading: "Hakubi Chief Priestess is indeed blessed by gods and buddhas, we dare not, we will never dare again!!!"

……………………

The night in Izumo was tranquil and gentle. The sound of the tide passed through the sliding door of the high-end Japanese-style suite, turning into a long, soothing white noise, lightly tapping the edge of the night.

"Pfft..."

Someone couldn't hold back, a soft laugh broke the indoor silence, then like lighting a fuse, the two looked at each other, finally bursting into unrestrained loud laughter.

Shirakawa Mai laughed until she slumped into Uesugi Muneyuki's embrace, even the corners of her eyes welled up with some physiological tears, her usual aloof and detached chief priestess bearing vanished completely, now she was just a girl who successfully pulled off a prank and was in high spirits.

"Hahaha... junior, did you see the director's expression at the end? And Hirate-kun's 'hold X'... hahahaha!" She covered her abdomen, laughing so hard she could barely breathe.

Uesugi Muneyuki also couldn't help but smile, while gently patting her back to help her breathe, he shook his head and sighed: "Miyahara-san is still the same old self, wherever he goes he's a comedian. Hironaka's 'professional guidance' might leave Miss Tei with lifelong psychological trauma."

Looking at her rare unrestrained expression, his eyes were full of indulgence and pampering.

"You did well today, worthy of reward." Having laughed enough, Shirakawa Mai straightened up, her slender fingers lightly tapping Uesugi's nose tip, her eyes flowing with mischievous and soft radiance. She rose, barefoot stepping on the warm tatami mats, walking toward the inner room.

After a while, when she came out again, Uesugi Muneyuki's breath involuntarily halted.

She had changed into a standard white scarlet hakama miko robe, the pure white upper garment and vivid crimson waist-tied long skirt made her appear as if she had stepped out of an ancient shrine painting scroll, sacred and beyond compare. Her jet-black hair flowed like a waterfall down her back, further accentuating her long, fair neck, her profile in the soft light was perfect to the point of not seeming human, her brows and eyes naturally carried a trace of pity and detachment, that was the aura of a "Chief Priestess Miko."

However, as her gaze moved downward, she could see a completely different scene.

Beneath that solemn scarlet hakama was a pair of long, beautiful legs tightly wrapped in pure white Baroque-patterned silk stockings. The stocking material was delicate, outlining the smooth and alluring lines of her legs, the delicate floral pattern from her rounded ankles extended to her straight calves, then to the pure white on the soft curves of her thighs, every bit revealing a temptation between sacred and mundane, heart-stirring and soul-shaking. And her feet were clad in a pair of minimally designed white pearl-strap red-soled slim-heel high heels, pointed toe, high heel, full of modern fashionable feel, forming an extreme and bold contrast with the traditional miko robe.

Sacred miko robe, pure white silk legs, sensual slim high heels.

These three elements wonderfully merged on her, both diluting the solemnity of the miko robe and injecting a touch of inviolable purity into the sensual attire. She stood there, seeming to simultaneously represent abstinence and temptation, a unique combination of goddess and witch walking among mortals.

Seeing Uesugi Muneyuki's eyes openly showing astonishment and infatuation, Shirakawa Mai's lips curved satisfactorily.

She walked over slowly, that aura of inviolable sanctity as she approached him, like melting ice and snow, turned into only for him to reveal, a tender charm laced with dependence. She naturally leaned into his embrace, found a comfortable position, and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Does it look good?" she whispered, her breath brushing over his ear.

"Mm." Uesugi Muneyuki tightened his arms, encircling her, his chin lightly resting on her hair top, smelling her hair's cool sandalwood mixed with a hint of his own warmth,"The best in the whole world."

He didn't ask her why she dressed this way, just as she understood all his silences. This was their unspoken understanding and charm, their bond of one lotus born together.

The two embraced, moving to the corridor facing the courtyard. The sliding door fully opened, the summer night breeze carrying the scent of plants and ocean surged in. The deep night sky was like a vast dark blue velvet, studded with brilliant stars, a crescent moon poured down clear radiance, gracing the moss, stone lanterns, and startled deer in the courtyard with a soft silver edge.

The summer night was profound, in the distance came the light "tok" sound of a startled deer's bamboo tube hitting stone, making the atmosphere even more tranquil.

Shirakawa Mai relaxedly leaned against Uesugi Muneyuki's chest, feeling his steady heartbeat and warm body temperature, the pair of feet wearing white silk stockings and high heels unconsciously lightly swayed, rubbing against his calf, the previous slaughter, scheming, and teasing the variety show team's commotion, at this moment were all washed clean by this tranquil night and lover's embrace.

"Feels really tranquil." she sighed softly.

"Mm." Uesugi Muneyuki replied, his fingers intertwined with hers.

They spoke no more, just quietly leaned against each other, gazing at the starry sky, listening to the tide and bamboo sounds. All the vast upheavals, all the scheming and struggles, seemed to have faded away. Now, only each other's existence, and this unprecedented tranquility and ease, like warm tidewater, gently enveloped the two.

After a long silence, Uesugi Muneyuki said: "Doing it this way, the Kansai side should also understand something."

"Mm." Mai Xuejie nodded slightly.

The two of us this time stirred up a paranormal event, besides wanting to have some fun, we also wanted to appropriately show off our strength, to achieve a deterrent effect.

Since we became one lotus born together, that Kansai figure has often probed, and we have already caused the Kansai New God to lose many personnel and resources, the other side also clearly stated they won't come to Kanto in the short term, so Uesugi Muneyuki and Shirakawa Mai decided to appropriately display our extraordinary abilities, further plunging the other side into thought and confusion.

"Actually I don't really want to directly let your grudge appear." Mai Xuejie lowered her head in thought and said: "But since that Rain Woman Princess likes... Muneyuki, even with my current strength, I cannot see through what the Rain Woman Princess truly is, therefore rather than revealing part of my power, it's better to let the Rain Woman Princess be satisfied, this way she can assist us more, her kind of inner-world existence able to connect the New God and Old God eras always makes the New God wary."

"I understand, from today's performance she indeed gained considerable enjoyment." Uesugi Muneyuki nodded with a smile, thinking how the Flower Palace began to turn into a fun person?

Influenced by Professor Zaizen?

But Professor Zaizen isn't a fun person either! According to what I know, besides fame and profit, Professor Zaizen is most interested in all kinds of difficult and complex diseases, conquering and overcoming cancer, that is Professor Zaizen's lifelong goal, yet he collapsed just before the cancer center was completed.

Right, in the Flower Palace's eyes, humans are almost like cancer cells on Earth, actually if it weren't for that last Old God and first New God changing the world's rules through their own ascension, the world wouldn't have become unsuitable for Old God existence, and in the Flower Palace's eyes, she is the native of the world, humans are Earth's cancer cells, truly cockroaches.

Uesugi Muneyuki could barely come up with an explanation, he was about to say something, but Mai Xuejie already blocked his mouth, in the gap of the kiss, panting out a vague plea, both hands urgently tugging at his clothes: "Don't say so much, Muneyuki, show some spirit!"

At this moment, whatever Kansai Sect Leader, whatever shrine affairs, were all thrown to the clouds. She was just his Mai, a woman longing to be completely possessed by her beloved, to dispel all cold and unease. The aloof miko's shell shattered, revealing only for him to bloom, emotions burning like fire.

Uesugi Muneyuki looked at her emotionally confused appearance, the last trace of restraint in his eyes also turned into gentle helplessness and fervent response.

But just at this moment, the room door sounded.

Who? Who dares disturb me and Muneyuki's good time at this moment? Mai Xuejie widened her eyes, glared fiercely at the door, thinking all those staff members are just eating white rice for free?

"Muneyuki, are you okay? I heard the filming site was haunted, you were also startled, are you alright now?" a familiar female voice came from the door.

It was Ikeda Erena! Uesugi Muneyuki and Mai Xuejie now understood why no one stopped her.

After arriving at the Izu Peninsula, Erena didn't want to participate in the program recording, so she was arranged to experience Izu's seawater bathing and stroll around nearby streets, and for Erena, strolling alone obviously wasn't fun, so when she heard Uesugi Muneyuki here had a situation, she immediately rushed over.

And when Erena entered, Uesugi Muneyuki and Shirakawa Mai had already resat properly, from their faces one could see no unexpected situation: "Master?"

However, Erena was especially sensitive in this regard, in the midsummer night wearing only a sleeveless top and shorts, her gaze swept over the white Baroque-patterned silk stockings on Mai Xuejie's legs, then seeing her wearing the special miko robe, she understood everything: "Looks, I came at the wrong time."

"No, Ikeda-san came at just the right time." Mai Xuejie said meaningfully teasing: "Muneyuki he, was also startled by the paranormal phenomenon in that villa! He even fell down."

"Ah, is it really so?" Indeed, Ikeda Erena immediately had her attention diverted, hurriedly asking Uesugi Muneyuki, she quickly took two steps over: "Are you alright? Muneyuki, are you injured? Ah, I shouldn't have left you, without me you one person really can't do it!"

"Yes, yes, yes, indeed without the master, I feel a bit scared." Uesugi Muneyuki could only go along with Mai Xuejie's words.

Erena felt somewhat pleased, she took the opportunity to touch Uesugi Muneyuki all over, and deliberately glanced at Mai Xuejie, displaying her ownership.

Mai Xuejie remained noncommittal, for her, the only one capable of constituting a threat was Watanabe Minami alone, as for this kind of muscular, front-convex-back-upturned, simple-minded idiot, whatever~

Thus, the three people resat, being disturbed like this Mai Xuejie also lost interest, so she took out tea bags to boil water.

But just as she was boiling water, the room door sounded again.

"???" Mai Xuejie really was a bit angry.

Who? Who keeps interrupting my good time? And are all these staff members blind?

A pleasant, elegant female voice came from the doorway, but her voice couldn't help being somewhat excited and trembling: "Um... excuse me, is Mr. Uesugi in? I'm Tei Reiji, here to deliver the script and the upcoming show proposal... may I come in?"

The leading lady of Fuji TV personally came to deliver the script and proposal?

Mai Xuejie and the Tall Beauty were both looking at Uesugi Muneyuki with meaningful expressions.

Fuji TV treats you well, doesn't it, Muneyuki?

Uesugi Muneyuki's facial muscles twitched; the matter at the Green Room was absolutely confidential, and only Hironaka Mariko knew.

But how did Tei Anchor come over now? Could it be that I haven't been to the Green Room for too long, causing this?

"Please come in." The arrow is on the bowstring and must be released; Uesugi Muneyuki had no choice but to speak.

"Okay, very rude to disturb you! Uesugi-san, this is about... huh?"

When Tei Anchor, dressed in professional attire paired with stockings and high heels, and obviously having reapplied her makeup, happily opened the door, she saw not only Uesugi Muneyuki, but also Shirakawa Mai sitting opposite him and Ikeda Erena half-leaning on Uesugi Muneyuki.

And there was that half-smiling, scrutinizing look on their faces.

That look made the guilty Tei Anchor's face instantly flush red; subconsciously she just wanted to flee, she flusteredly said "Sorry for disturbing you," shoved the documents in her arms onto the ground, and ashamed, wanted to hurry away.

As Fuji TV's leading lady, Tei Anchor has always been a dignified person; she also didn't come to the Green Room on a whim, but merely wanted to use this opportunity to ask Uesugi when he would again designate her, and secretly slipped the room card for her own room, booked for tonight, into his hand.

As a result, the scene before her eyes and that unique scrutinizing gaze made the thin-skinned Tei Anchor subconsciously want to flee in disgrace!

But when she turned around, a small head poked out from the end of the hallway, curiously gazing this way, and she happened to come face-to-face with Tei Reiji, who also seemed to want to find Uesugi Muneyuki.

It's Miyawaki Sakura of YKC48!

How did she also come here?!?
