While Kishibe Rohan's worldview was being bombarded as he looked through the manga, Miyauchi Hikage received several text ssages from Shinomiya Kaguya.
The first was the news that she had successfully used the power of the Shinomiya family today to find problems with the forr Student Council of Shuchiin Academy, forcibly dissolved it, and temporarily took office as the interim president.
Shinomiya Kaguya had ntioned this to him before, so Miyauchi Hikage also expressed his congratulations to her.
The second ssage seed a bit more abrupt, asking him directly which manga artists he liked usually.
Looking at this ssage, Miyauchi Hikage couldn't help but smile.
Was Shinomiya Kaguya testing him?
But there was nothing to pretend about.
In the first month of obtaining the diary, he didn't have many ans and had to worry that after his identity was exposed, he would be controlled by a woman like Shinomiya Kaguya.
Even after saving Tohru and obtaining Unlimited Blade Works, if soone wanted to target the people around him, he actually didn't have many ways to stop them.
But after obtaining Wonder of U, Miyauchi Hikage no longer needed to worry about these things.
Relying solely on worldly power, it was no longer possible to affect him and the people around him.
Although he couldn't be considered invincible in the world, breaking through Wonder of U's defense was not an easy task.
Naturally, Miyauchi Hikage's mindset also changed a little.
His attitude towards those girls who held diaries naturally changed as well.
In fact, just relying on the original Na Magic, Miyauchi Hikage could vaguely sense that besides Shinomiya Kaguya, there were probably a few other smart won in the group who suspected him.
Like Yukinoshita Yukino and Hinami Aoi, who were inherently intelligent won, it would be strange if they didn't doubt his excessively fast rise.
It was just that these girls had never expressed too many of their opinions in the group chat. To be precise, Yukinoshita Yukino rarely spoke in the group herself, and Hinami Aoi was purely a fun-seeker. Apart from waiting for fun in the group every day, she was trying to find the whereabouts of "Blank" in reality, wanting to wipe away her previous sha.
Shinomiya Kaguya was indeed the person closest to his identity as the mysterious person currently, except for Shiina Mashiro who realized the problem by intuition right from the start—this suspicious and capable woman had already started investigating his first eting with Shiina Mashiro using the surveillance of Akihabara.
However, Miyauchi Hikage still wouldn't actively reveal his identity. After all, the ga had already begun. Even if Miyauchi Hikage's mindset changed, he wouldn't admit his identity in the diary; that wouldn't be interesting enough.
But if the other party took the initiative to co and ask him, Miyauchi Hikage wouldn't deny it directly either.
Thinking so, Miyauchi Hikage casually replied with a few manga he liked more in this world on his phone.
Among them was Kishibe Rohan's famous work Pink Dark Boy.
To be honest, although this manga was very different from Jojo itself in content, the way the plot unfolded and the changes in serialization popularity were really quite similar.
When the first and second parts were serialized in Shonen Jump, their popularity could only be considered average. The story setting didn't have many innovations, and there wasn't much discussion. It was just a slightly unique hot-blooded shonen manga with a realistic art style and story.
Until the third year of serialization, when the third part was serialized, a superpower setting similar to "Stand" was suddenly introduced, changing the tone of the work from hot-blooded royal road battles to intelligence-based superpower battles, and the popularity of the work skyrocketed.
Now in the fourth year of serialization of Pink Dark Boy, it was the period when the popularity of this manga was at its peak. Even if it couldn't compare with those top pillar manga artists, he could indeed be considered a currently very popular manga artist.
It was precisely because of this that Kishibe Rohan, who made a lot of money, made the decision to return to Morioh Town to buy a Western-style house.
In fact, several girls who liked manga in the chat group had already ntioned Kishibe Rohan's na.
After all, in reality, compared to other manga artists, Kishibe Rohan's art style was indeed quite distinctive.
It was difficult for weekly manga artists who had to rush manuscripts every week to maintain their own image, but Kishibe Rohan was not bad-looking, and his dressing style was also quite unique.
Fortunately, this world rged many works. Besides Kishibe Rohan, there were also many popular manga artists with art styles different from ordinary manga artists. It was not easy to select Kishibe Rohan among them.
Of course, Miyauchi Hikage didn't forget to ntion Shiina Mashiro's na. After all, the Saekano manga currently serialized by Shiina Mashiro, after their adaptation, relying on Shiina Mashiro's own ability combined with the dinsionality-reducing drawing skills brought by the diary's ability, the serialization situation of Saekano was also quite optimistic now.
It couldn't be considered a popular work yet, but the serialization was stable now, and there was no need to worry about cancellation. Moreover, Shiina Mashiro controlled the rhythm well and adjusted the plot, and the main storyline would probably end in about a hundred chapters.
And even if it was cancelled in advance, it didn't matter.
Anyway, Shiina Mashiro had basically drawn all the manga now, and only needed to make so simple adjustnts later.
Even if cancelled, Shiina Mashiro could quickly finish the remaining content by online serialization and start a new serialization.
Miyauchi Hikage had already thought it through. During the serialization of Saekano, before the next serialization started, Shiina Mashiro could try her own ideas on the online platform for a year.
If it still didn't work, then bring out Demon Slayer. After all, no matter what, royal road hot-bloodedness was the core of Shonen Jump.
With first-hand information from the Demon Slayer Corps, Shiina Mashiro's drawing skills, and his help in perfecting the plot and settings, even without relying on the original work of Demon Slayer, Miyauchi Hikage believed that Shiina Mashiro could better display this story in this world.
Of course, how exactly to do it depended on Shiina Mashiro's own ideas.
Looking at the nas of several manga artists sent by Miyauchi Hikage, Shinomiya Kaguya, sitting alone in the Student Council office, couldn't help but show a trace of envy on her face when she saw Shiina Mashiro's na.
When the Saekano manga officially started serialization, the girls in the group had already bought and read it.
Even though the mysterious person had already sent its novel and spin-off manga last month, and even sent the ani to Kasumigaoka Utaha.
Even though everyone knew that "Kato gumi" would be the final winner, the girls in the group were still interested in the subsequent developnt of the story after seeing Shiina Mashiro's version.
Shinomiya Kaguya certainly knew that Miyauchi Hikage put a lot of effort into this.
To have a boy like Miyauchi Hikage help so wholeheartedly was indeed sothing very enviable.
But now was not the ti to envy others.
Miyauchi Hikage unabashedly sent his favorite manga artists to her, and Shinomiya Kaguya's gaze was on the content of this limited commission.
Relying on this commission, they could know the approximate location of the "Mysterious Person" now, and the reward was also quite considerable.
But Shinomiya Kaguya's focus was not here, but on the fact ntioned in the commission that they had two chances to fill in the address.
Why not once, not three tis, but exactly two tis?
Shinomiya Kaguya hadn't realized this at first, until Umaru in the group suddenly ntioned that this might also be the "trick" of the Mysterious Person, and actually the other party hadn't left Tokyo at all. Only then did Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly realize the problem.
Maybe there really were two "Mysterious Persons" in this world now?
One stayed in Tokyo as the main body, and the other went to the coastal town he ntioned as a clone.
Shinomiya Kaguya pondered, then looked at the exclusive answer area for this limited commission in the diary, gritted her teeth, and directly filled in 2-23, 2-cho, Beika Town, Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo in the first answer position, directly locking onto Miyauchi Hikage's Western-style house.
Even if Miyauchi Hikage really wasn't the mysterious person, the final reward was judged based on the distance between the location she wrote and the mysterious person.
As one of the core areas of Tokyo, as long as the mysterious person really had a main body in Tokyo, judging by the distance, she had a good chance of getting a lottery opportunity.
In addition, she also contacted several girls closely related to her, such as Miyano Shiho who was hidden by her secretly now, Hoshino Ai as her junior, Katsura Kotonoha who owed her a favor, and Takanashi Rikka...
Let them take out one guessing opportunity to guess several other core areas of Tokyo, and the remaining opportunity was up to them to choose.
After doing these things, Shinomiya Kaguya refocused her gaze on the other three manga artists sent to her by Miyauchi Hikage.
Classic pick one out of three, and one person had a different art style from the other two. Shinomiya Kaguya's gaze naturally fell on the young manga artist nad Kishibe Rohan, and spent another 15 minutes asking for detailed information about this manga artist directly from Shueisha.
Kishibe Rohan, 20 years old.
Hates socializing, willful, egoistic, and has an extraordinary obsession with manga creation.
And never misses a deadline. He is one of the few dedicated professionals who don't need urging, don't need any manga assistants, and don't need editors' help, but can submit the manuscript a few days before the deadline every week.
As for willfulness and egoism, it was shown in his way of negotiating with editors.
Except for the first few years of debut, when he listened to the editorial departnt's idea and added a very popular female character as the heroine in the second part of the manga, with the soaring popularity of the third part of Pink Dark Boy, he almost never listened to the editorial departnt's opinions again.
It was even heard that in order to avoid being frequently disturbed by editors and readers interfering with his manga drawing, he chose to leave Tokyo recently and return to his hotown in Sendai.
"Morioh Town..." Shinomiya Kaguya looked at the other party's hotown and searched for information about Morioh Town again.
A peripheral town of Sendai City with a long history, a resident population of more than 50,000, and a specialty of grilled beef tongue.
It looked no different from other Japanese towns.
The only thing that concerned Shinomiya Kaguya was that Morioh Town was also one of the world-famous production areas of black abalone. It could even be said that the black abalone produced here was the best black abalone in the world.
However, the fishing grounds producing black abalone were controlled by the Higashikata family who had lived in Morioh Town for generations. The output of these abalones was limited, and they were sold through high-end channels, not sold to ordinary people at all. Even ordinary people living in Morioh Town might not know about these things.
Even if one knew that there were world-class ingredients here and made a special trip to Morioh Town, without channels and connections, one couldn't buy even a single black abalone from the Higashikata family.
"Special manga artist, not in the three major tropolitan areas, rich in seafood..." Shinomiya Kaguya instinctively felt the uniqueness of Morioh Town.
But she didn't make a decision so quickly. Instead, she sent a ssage to Miyauchi Hikage again.
"I recently got so black abalones from the Leopard Print Rocky Reef fishing ground in Morioh Town. I think this should be a very good shooting subject. I'll send so to you then."
She certainly knew that Miyauchi Hikage had recently dragged Shiina Mashiro's cousin and Tohru to film food videos there, and relying on the gimmicks of beautiful girl chef and beautiful girl big eater, perhaps adding Miyauchi Hikage's own luck, he had gained hundreds of thousands of fans in just half a month, with an amazing speed of gaining fans.
Soon, she received Miyauchi Hikage's grateful response.
"Then I have to let Mahiru practice the cooking thod of abalone well recently, so as not to waste such good ingredients."
He really had no intention of hiding it at all.
Was it because he had grown up and didn't have to worry about the danger after his identity was discovered, so he showed such an attitude?
Shinomiya Kaguya thought so in her heart, while writing the location of Morioh Town in the blank space of the second opportunity.
The rest depended on what rewards she could get when the commission settled tonight.
Even if she was more than 70% sure in her heart, Shinomiya Kaguya still had full expectations for this.
She also directly posted the location she filled in for her second opportunity in the group.
Facing the curious inquiries of several other girls in the group, she also gave a frank answer.
Kaguya: I quite like Pink Dark Boy when reading Shonen Jump recently, and the black abalone in Morioh Town is also quite famous, so I filled it in first. For the other opportunity, I'll choose again.
Kaguya: However, considering the premise that the Mysterious Person might be lying, my second opportunity might be filled with Akihabara.
