He ambled along the road.
The number of pedestrians on the road grew, but Yang Tao did not head towards Watanabe High School, because the streets were filled with vibrant High school students, clearly indicating it was a weekend...
Even if he went now, no one would be there.
[Exploration Progress 18.75%]
A new prompt suddenly popped up in the lower-left corner of his vision, and Yang Tao imdiately stopped.
'Are there plot characters nearby?'
Looking around, Yang Tao quickly focused his gaze on a young girl with short golden hair, dressed in a cute white top, a very short blue skirt, and carrying a pink handbag, walking towards him.
The most important thing wasn't her long, fair legs, nor her at least 35D chest, but the golden light emanating from her...
Yang Tao had seen faint light on others earlier in the morning, but it was extrely dim.
It was roughly the difference between candlelight and his custom-made flashlight.
'Is this the protagonist? Is the golden color perhaps luck?'
If it really was luck, it would make sense, after all, which protagonist isn't overflowing with luck?
Since he confird the other party was the protagonist, Yang Tao naturally went over to get acquainted; after all, he was there for the exploration value.
Yang Tao walked straight up to her, a handso smile on his face, and said, "Hello."
The girl paused, stopped, looked at Yang Tao, and asked confusedly, "You... hello, can I help you?"
"Nothing... I just simply wanted to get to know you, don't worry, I'm not a bad person."
As he spoke, he extended his hand and with a slight flick, a golden business card appeared between his two fingers, sparkling under the sunlight.
"This is my business card."
He hadn't expected to use it so soon; Yang Tao felt the business card was a worthwhile investnt. As for gold? Haha, right now, even iron isn't as plentiful as his gold, after all, the Nether is constantly spawning gold 24 hours a day.
The young girl's eyes lit up, and she showed a surprised expression, saying, "How amazing... Are you a magician?"
She reached out and took the business card, and suddenly felt sothing was off; the card didn't seem to be made of paper...
"This..."
"Pure gold. If you like it, you can take it to a jewelry store and have it made into an ornant. Of course, rember my na before you make it into jewelry."
Yang Tao said casually. The purpose of a business card was to show off and introduce himself. If the other party could rember his na, then the business card had perfectly served its purpose; the dium didn't matter.
"Ah?"
The girl lowered her head and looked at the text on the business card.
"Yang Tao... Minecraft Chairman? Ah? I'm sorry, this is too valuable, that... that..."
"Don't worry about such small things. Can you tell your na?"
"Yurikawa Hana, my na is Yurikawa Hana..."
Yang Tao's brows furrowed slightly after hearing her na.
"Yurikawa Hana? Not... Yotsuya Miko?"
Since Elisa told him the na Yotsuya Miko, she must have sothing special about her, otherwise Elisa wouldn't have told him she was likely the protagonist.
Yang Tao's murmur was heard by Yurikawa Hana, who stood in front of him. Hana asked, surprised, "You know Miko?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Yang Tao suddenly realized that if she knew Yotsuya Miko, then everything made sense.
After all, a movie or TV show couldn't have only one protagonist; there would definitely be supporting characters, villains, or rivals.
"I've heard of Miko's na, but I don't know her. You also go to Watanabe High School, right?"
Hana nodded and said, "That's right, I go to Watanabe High School. Miko and I are classmates and good friends."
Speaking of Miko, Hana suddenly rembered that she was supposed to et Miko at a cafe today and go shopping. She was already a bit late because she took the subway in the wrong direction, and Yang Tao's approach almost made her forget about it.
"I'm sorry, I have an appointnt to et Miko at a cafe, so I'll go first..."
With that, Hana took off running towards a cafe not far away.
Yang Tao watched Hana's retreating figure and followed her. This girl gave him a feeling of being naturally clumsy. He strongly suspected that she was a supporting character in the so-called plot, and a major one at that, given her figure and clumsy attribute; only a lead female supporting character could pull that off.
Walking into the cafe, Yang Tao was surprised to see the chaotic scene inside. There were more ghosts outside because the area was larger.
But inside this small cafe, there were more than a dozen densely packed evil spirits.
'There's an evil spirit magnet here?? Or is this the protagonist's treatnt?'
At this mont, he saw a girl with long, straight black hair standing next to Hana, wearing a blue long-sleeved top, a black princess-style short skirt, and carrying a brown backpack.
[Exploration Progress 23.25%]
'It seems Elisa's guess was correct; this girl nad Miko should be the protagonist... With such a significant increase in exploration value, it would be almost impossible if she wasn't the protagonist...'
'But this girl doesn't look like soone with any special abilities at all...'
The 9 health points above her head couldn't be faked, and she wasn't surrounded by golden light. If there hadn't been a prompt, Yang Tao would have treated her as an ordinary person on the street.
Miko said very calmly, "Let's go."
Hana, however, pulled Miko's hand and showed a pitiful expression, saying, "Miko, can I get a latte before we go?"
"Alright..."
Hana happily ran to the cafe counter, with Miko following behind her.
Yang Tao walked directly towards Miko, stood beside her, and softly asked, "Yotsuya Miko?"
Hearing soone call her na, Yotsuya Miko expressionlessly turned her head and looked at him: "You are?"
At this mont, Hana also heard Yang Tao's voice, turned around, and looked at Yang Tao in surprise, saying, "Mr. Yang, why are you here too?"
Miko glanced at Hana and asked, "You know him?"
Hana nodded like a pecking chick, then pulled out the golden business card from her pocket and said, "This is Mr. Yang's business card. I think anyone who receives a business card like this couldn't possibly forget the na on it."
Miko glanced at the na on it. Although the cosmic script was strange, there was a mysterious power that made her overlook these oddities and only rember the na on the business card.
"Yang Tao..."
"Mr. Yang, how do you know my na? I don't think I've ever t you."
Yang Tao nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I learned it from a friend of mine. Don't worry, I'm not a bad person; I just feel you're a bit special."
His words made Miko's pupils rapidly dilate, but years of seeing ghosts made her appear unfazed.
"I'm not special. Your friend was mistaken."
Yang Tao nodded and said with a smile, "Perhaps. I also don't see anything special about you, but Hana is quite special with her golden radiance..."
"You..."
This ti, Miko finally couldn't hold back.
