The Heroines Can Read My Secret Diary

The Yamaguchi-gumi didn't disappoint Hakuto either. Soon, all the information on that middle-aged man appeared on Hakuto's phone.

After reading the information, a speechless expression appeared on Hakuto's face. He had thought that middle-aged man was someone important, but according to the investigation, he was just an unemployed middle-aged man.

After learning this, besides finding it amusing, Hakuto grew even more suspicious. Where did an unemployed, down-and-out middle-aged man get such arrogance?

So surely something must be propping up his arrogance, or rather, letting him throw his weight around. Hakuto ordered the Yamaguchi-gumi to investigate further, then put down his phone.

"So, did you find anything?"

Tifa saw Hakuto pick up his phone and knew it must be about Sonoka's matter, so she asked.

"Nothing much, just someone throwing their weight around using someone else's influence. I've ordered a deeper investigation to see whose influence they're borrowing."

Hakuto answered Tifa's question, but suddenly thought of the reason Tifa came to Japan. Besides seeing him, Tifa also wanted to track down those Dark Chefs.

Somehow, Hakuto instinctively connected that middle-aged man with the Dark Chefs. If it really was as he thought, then Hakuto would laugh his head off.

[For some reason, I thought of those Dark Chefs. Tifa came to track them down. Could the incident with Sonoka be related to the Dark Chefs as well? Anne unemployed middle-aged man arrogantly spouting nonsense in front of a famous chef? Heh, I don't know if he's ignorant or fearless.]

Tifa's eyes lit up slightly. She hadn't expected to encounter those Dark Chefs before even starting her investigation. She looked at Hakuto subconsciously and then smiled.

'Someone was saying he wasn't trouble-prone. My, my, to run into trouble everywhere he goes, and he still says he isn't trouble-prone?'

Tifa silently complained to herself, but on the surface, she maintained a smiling expression. To be honest, Tifa's smile was beautiful, but Hakuto always felt like she was laughing at him.

[Is it my imagination? I feel like Tifa is laughing at me? But I haven't done anything wrong. Could she be laughing at my trouble-prone nature? No, impossible. It's my imagination. Although I do go where trouble happens, it's not like I want it to. At least the Tokonosu City incident had nothing to do with me. I only went there afterward.]

Countless people who read this diary entry laughed. Hakuto was really adorable. And it seemed like Hakuto had just admitted to his trouble-prone nature, didn't he?

But thinking about it, everyone realized it was exactly like that. Not to mention distant things, just take recent events. The Totsuki Resort incident happened because of Hakuto. Then Hakuto went to Amerika, and the virus incident happened there.

Then during the Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual, Hakuto went to participate, and there was Hagoromo Kitsune and the Nura Clan.

Indeed, confirmed. Hakuto was definitely a protagonist with a protagonist's halo. Wherever he went, trouble would happen.

Not long after, Sonoka came over with the food. Then Hakuto asked Sonoka, "That Matsushita Kazuo—the man we saw when we came in—what did he come here for?"

Sonoka smiled. "He came to deliver a Shokugeki challenge. If I lose, Shunkatei belongs to him, or I join his side."

Hearing this, Hakuto narrowed his eyes, then let out a cold laugh. "And the bet?"

"One hundred million Yuan."

Hakuto chuckled softly. "One hundred million Yuan to buy you? He's dreaming. But Sonoka, did you accept?"

"I did. Why would I refuse someone offering me money?"

Hakuto frowned slightly, then looked at Sonoka and said, "You shouldn't have accepted. Since they dare to challenge you on your turf, they must be confident. You accepted the challenge without knowing the bottom line. You were too reckless."

Sonoka hesitated and said, "With my current strength, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"The fear is that they might have the strength of a Super Chef."

[Sonoka is still too careless. If this group of Dark Chefs is who I suspect, Saiba Asahi, then Sonoka has a high chance of losing. Saiba Asahi, Erina's half-brother, with his ability Cross Knives, plus the full training of Saiba Joichiro, might have already inherited Saiba Joichiro's Heart of Asura. Although Sonoka has comprehended the Heart of Cooking, failure is inevitable.]

Erina's pupils contracted, 'My half-brother?'

Although Hakuto had mentioned it before, actually hearing it now still made Erina feel a bit lost.

[Heh, regardless of whether it's him or not, the final destination for this group of Dark Chefs will clearly be the concrete columns of Tokyo Bay. Even if it's Erina's half-brother she's never met, even if it were Erina's own brother, if they harm my people, they have to die.]

[Have the Yamaguchi-gumi's Deep Ones directly dispatched. Once found, kill them directly and sink them in Tokyo Bay's concrete columns. After all, even Nakiri Azami doesn't know he has an illegitimate child. Erina certainly won't know she has a half-brother. If Saiba Asahi dies, who would care about him anyway? Heh.]

Erina suddenly stood up, 'Hakuto actually planned to...'

[Saiba Asahi, you'd better just obediently... Wait, if I remember correctly, the Chef God Candidate Examination is in two days, right? Isn't Saiba Asahi's appearance at this time a bit too coincidental? Heh, haha. I see. Saiba Asahi, I look forward to meeting you.]

Everyone felt a bit of a chill. Wasn't Hakuto a little too... something? With just a few clues, he deduced so much. Was that reasonable?

[Eh, everything is still just speculation. But if I see him at the Chef God Candidate Examination, then all the speculation will be confirmed.]
