The Heroines Can Read My Secret Diary

The trial run of the dish to be offered to the Sacred Sakura Tree was quickly completed by Hakuto. The result was pretty good, with no problems at all.

But the other matter was more troublesome. The Bai Luo Noodle Rod was said to contain the Bai Luo Family's inheritance, but Hakuto, after much effort, couldn't see anything different about it.

He had come close to breaking the Bai Luo Noodle Rod to see if the inheritance was inside.

If he hadn't checked and determined that the Bai Luo Noodle Rod was neither hollow nor had a hidden compartment, Hakuto would have actually tried to break the noodle rod.

Unable to find anything, Hakuto reluctantly gave up.

He slept until the next day.

Today, Hakuto's light novels were to be officially released. Hakuto didn't care much about this, but he still needed to ensure that his light novels would win against Utaha.

In another country, the British mainland, Kazuo received Hakuto's order to find a way to get Eriri to return to Japan.

Kazuo had already developed some power in Britain, but he couldn't shake the Spencer Family. However, Kazuo was very clever.

He didn't approach Eriri directly. He just told her through someone that Aki Tomoya was about to meet with misfortune and needed her help.

Kazuo believed Eriri would make the right choice.

Eriri had no idea that all her actions were being watched, waiting for her to take the bait.

As Kazuo expected, Eriri indeed chose to secretly return to Japan. To prevent the Spencer Family from stopping her, Kazuo used his influence to secretly help her leave.

By the time the Spencer Family discovered it, Eriri was already on a plane to Japan.

The Spencer Family was furious but helpless. Since Kazuo didn't confront them directly, the Spencer Family couldn't even find a trace of him.

However, the reason for the Spencer Family's fury was actually another matter.

…

In Japan, after seeing the sales of his light novels, Hakuto was immediately drawn to another event.

Akane's game had also been released.

Hakuto was a bit surprised, but then he smiled.

Immediately, Hakuto had Kazuo purchase a full one million copies of the game.

At 180 yen per copy, one million copies came to a total of 180 million yen.

Hakuto didn't even need to pay this amount himself. Teiji of the Yamaguchi-gumi covered it privately.

Akane clearly hadn't expected that her game would sell over 1.2 million copies immediately upon release.

Akane was overjoyed. She knew the game would sell well, but she hadn't expected it to sell this well.

"Eiko, we did it!"

Upon hearing Akane's words, Kawasegawa Eiko's face also showed wild joy.

"Aunt, we succeeded. With this game, we can definitely step into the virtual reality threshold. Then we..."

Before she could finish her joyful statement, the studio door was knocked.

Then the door opened.

Hakuto walked in, looking at Akane and the others, with a smile on his face. "Congratulations. Congratulations on your game selling so well."

Tomoya, as if regaining his confidence, looked at Hakuto and said, "What are you doing here? You're not welcome here."

Hakuto looked at Tomoya, a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. Then he looked at Akane. "Miss Kosaka, has anyone ever told you that when something seems too good to be true, there's often poison hidden inside?"

After speaking, Hakuto took out a document and handed it to Akane. "This is a lawsuit. I am suing the game currently being sold by your circle, 'White Album', for idea theft. Furthermore, the BGM and related music used in the game are also plagiarized."

Akane's expression changed. She took the lawsuit documents from Hakuto and read them. Then, with a ferocious expression, she looked at Tomoya and Michiru.

"Aki Tomoya, Hyodo Michiru, explain this to me! What's going on?"

Tomoya and Michiru's expressions had already changed when Hakuto mentioned idea theft and plagiarism.

Seeing the looks on Tomoya and Michiru's faces, how could Akane not know the truth of the matter?

Looking at Michiru and Tomoya now, Akane's eyes showed a desire to skin them alive and tear out their sinews.

But she needed to stay calm. She had to resolve this matter. Otherwise, all her grand ambitions would flow away like water.

"Yagami Hakuto, name your price. Sell me the rights. Name your price. I won't haggle."

Looking at Akane, who didn't even have the attitude of someone begging, Hakuto chuckled lightly. "What makes you think I would sell you the rights?"

"Besides, your attitude isn't that of someone asking for a favor."

Hearing Hakuto's words, Akane's expression darkened.

"Terrifying. Your expression right now. Oh, by the way, although I don't know how many copies of the game you've sold, I contributed one million copies myself. The amount involved exceeds 100 million. That should be enough for the plagiarists, Aki Tomoya and Hyodo Michiru, to eat prison food for life. As for how much you'll have to pay me, that's another matter."

Akane hadn't expected Hakuto to have purchased one million out of the 1.2 million copies.

"So, no such thing as a free lunch. And even if there is, it's poisoned."

Hakuto looked at Akane, then at Tomoya and Michiru. "Aki Tomoya, why didn't you use your pig brain to think about it? What are the odds that a game plan would conveniently appear just when you needed one?"

"And Hyodo Michiru, to lure you in, I personally had those pieces of music created. Why didn't you think about how music that fit the game perfectly, had no audience, and which you coincidentally discovered, could appear? Are there really such convenient coincidences in the world?"
