Villa living room.
The new recipients of the diary were Sakuya, Miyano Shiho, Miyano Akemi, and Hinagiku.
"...Hmm, I’ll explain it to you on Monday."
Ren hung up the phone. Yoko and Miwako both received the diary in this round.
And the four people in front of him.
The second round had three people; this round surprisingly had six.
Without exception, the people who received the diary were all those around him, either his friends or his believers.
So it can be confird that, apart from the initial distribution, the subsequent two distributions of the diary were within his sphere of knowledge and among the important characters in the story.
He refocused his gaze on the four people in front of him.
"This is the third round, and a total of six people received the diary in this round.
Besides you, the other two are Okino Yoko, a current idol star, and Sato Miwako, one of the current police inspectors at the Tokyo tropolitan Police Departnt.
Counting this way, only Hatamoto, Chikako, and Suzuki Ayako haven’t received the diary yet.
I wonder if it will extend to the next round.
Regarding the diary, it’s just as I explained a mont ago.
And the content of the diary is just as you’ve seen."
The sudden appearance of the diary was a huge shock for all four girls present.
Driven by curiosity, the four who read the diary’s content all saw the words "original story." The four girls were sharp-minded, and after a simple thought, they understood the aning.
"So, the aning of ’original story’ is that Amamiya has seen our story?"
"Yes."
Ren simply nodded slightly in response to Hinagiku’s question.
Hinagiku took a deep breath after getting her answer.
"So that’s why you seed to have known for a long ti when we first t, and you could clearly know my sister’s experiences and thoughts."
Ren rely nodded apologetically in response.
"This is also the biggest reason why Nagi and Isumi transferred schools."
Hinagiku now truly understood the fundantal reason for Nagi’s transfer. Looking at the diary in her hand, she could also understand why Nagi did what she did.
"To get what one desires based on one’s own wishes.
So, is Nagi’s desire sothing that cannot be obtained through conventional ans or thods?"
Ren imdiately spoke, stopping Hinagiku’s habitual thought.
"One’s own wishes can only be realized by oneself. You cannot help with this."
Hinagiku also stopped her subconscious thought. She understood that there were so things others couldn’t help Nagi with.
Moreover, the diary doesn’t provide unconditional help. Instead, it requires Ren and the holder to have more contact with fate in order to receive the greatest assistance.
Therefore, whether Nagi can realize her wish, the crucial point lies with Ren.
This also made Hinagiku realize imdiately that the rewards given by this diary were actually deducted from Ren.
The reason is very simple.
Just by reading the diary, one can gain extraordinary power. The effort and reward are not equal. If Ren had not unconsciously shared his portion, those who read the diary would definitely not have such gains.
Therefore, this can be seen as a gift from the diary, or it can be said to be unconsciously bestowed upon them by Ren.
Understanding this point also made it clear why Nagi was so close to Ren.
It shouldn’t just be Nagi, but everyone present who is close to Ren for this reason.
Connecting threads were drawn when there was no existing connection, and only then did more connections arise.
Because the power obtained from the diary originated from Ren, to gain more, one needed to be closer to Ren.
"It’s almost like a role-playing ga mode."
Of course, while she was complaining, Hinagiku didn’t think Ren did this on purpose.
According to her guess, Ren unconsciously shared that unique power, which then caused the diary to react accordingly.
Seeing that Hinagiku had no more questions, Shiho also raised her hand.
"So, god, all of us have original stories. We are all important characters in the story... Is that right?"
"That’s right."
Ren nodded slightly.
"You and your sister, Sonoko, and Ran are from one story.
Then, Kaguya, Chika, and Hayasaka are from one story.
And then, Sanzenin, Saginomiya, Maria, and Miss Katsura are from one story."
Shiho nodded slightly. "A hodgepodge of three stories, with everyone mixed together in one large frawork world."
Shiho wasn’t very concerned about the content of the story; she only needed to know that everything now was no longer in the script of the original story.
Moreover, if it were the script from the original story, her sister would already be dead, wouldn’t she?
Shiho glanced at her sister beside her, and she involuntarily confird this answer in her heart.
"So, in the original story, my sister died, and I turned into a child because of that drug, and I also developed a relationship with Kudo Shinichi, right?"
"Yes, just as you said."
"...Thankfully, it’s not the original story script."
Shiho felt no regret whatsoever; in fact, she only felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
Fortunately, it wasn’t the original script.
She could not accept the outco of her sister’s death under any circumstances.
"That’s good then."
Relieved, Shiho smoothed away the anxiety in her heart. From now on, she just needed to continue living at the current pace.
Of course, at this mont, she also beca more aware of the importance of power.
According to the original story script, she and her sister were fish on a chopping board. Once they lost their value, they would be slaughtered by that organization.
If the story’s script hadn’t been fundantally changed, her and her sister’s fate would definitely have been much more tragic than it is now.
If their father and mother hadn’t researched extraordinary characteristics, giving the two sisters a chance, then she and her sister would now be two corpses.
"Yes. This is the best outco now."
At this mont, Akemi was also extrely relieved.
She was fortunate that reality had changed and that her and Shiho’s fates were not arranged as they were in the story. Otherwise, according to the original story, both she and Shiho would have been killed by her foolish actions.
Thinking of that ending, Akemi was also extrely relieved.
Her death would have plunged Shiho into an endless nightmare, which she could not accept.
