"...Ah, so you mean, that Miss Lan Ze has had feelings for you for a long time?"
"...What?! He even put aside his work to take a vacation with you?..."
"...Despite Miss Lin's objections, you insisted on coming with you to investigate?"
Sangui Valley took another sip of sake, grimacing as he savored it.
"What incredible luck!"
"The only blood-related heir of the Lanze Group is going to such lengths to please you!"
His tone revealed an envy that even the smell of alcohol couldn't mask.
Yoruichi Toyama shook her head with a troubled look, then tilted her head back and gulped down the entire glass of baijiu.
"But I already had Akemi..."
He's a complete scumbag, wanting to have his cake and eat it too, and not wanting to let go of either.
Unaware of his intentions, San Guigu continued to chatter on and on about gossip while exchanging drinks with him.
In the tavern, it was not uncommon for men like this to come and drown their sorrows in alcohol late at night, so no one paid any attention.
As for Yoruichi Toyama, after two jugs of Japanese sake, she could barely taste the alcohol.
To persuade the three Guigu, he kept asking for more wine, and finally managed to get a little tipsy.
This is a good opportunity to supplement the acting skills that Aunt Absinthe found completely inadequate.
As for the Three Ghost Valleys, I probably didn't notice them because they drank quite a bit and their performance was rather mediocre.
This person was the breakthrough point that Yoruichi Toyama came up with on a whim.
He was involved in the fire at the Karuizawa training camp dormitory more than two years ago.
...
To ensure a constant influx of fresh talent, the Nomads Rising Troupe periodically selects new actors to supplement the troupe's ranks.
The three members of the troupe, along with the current main actors Shiro Ryuya and Emon Izumi, as well as the female lead Kozuki Reina, were all members who participated in the audition.
However, not long after the selection process ended, a fire broke out in the training dormitory for the new actors one night, and two male actors and one female actor who were in the dormitory at the time tragically lost their lives.
Kiryu Eiji was also disfigured in that fire.
The three who had originally been eliminated—Sanguigu, Shiro, and Emon—were fortunate enough to take the stage as alternates and perform in one round.
She then seized the opportunity and firmly established herself as a formal actor.
Only they themselves know the hardships and unbearable memories they endured.
...
"...I never expected that you, a detective...would be so skilled at picking up women..."
Even after drinking so much that his speech was slurred, San Guigu remained fixated on the matter.
Yoruichi Toyama's half-real, half-fake distress and complaints were interpreted by him as Versailles.
Of course, that was what Yoruichi Toyama originally meant.
"...One is my cousin and partner, the other is a rich heiress, the heiress of billions..."
"...How lucky you are..."
Judging from this, this guy must read a lot of gossip columns in the newspapers.
Yoruichi Toyama propped her head up with one hand, pretending to be drunk, and glanced at him.
"Would you like this good fortune?"
"Me?" San Guigu chuckled, already quite drunk. "I'm different from you!"
"I will always be loyal to Reina... no matter how she treats me..."
Yoruichi Toyama's eyes widened.
"Ling Yu Nai? I heard she's getting quite close to Mr. Cheng?"
San Guigu stirred as if his sore spot had been hit, but after a moment of silence, he simply snorted and exhaled a cold breath.
"What nonsense! Those tabloid reporters, they just think Cheng is handsome, so they praise him and Ling Yuna as some kind of golden couple..."
"Who can understand my true feelings for Ling Yuna! My true feelings..."
As he spoke, he showed off the tattoo on his wrist.
It is the Romanized spelling of "玲于奈" and a heart.
Coupled with the increasingly distorted and bizarre face of the Three Ghost Valleys after drinking, the more sincere it seemed, the more disgusting it became.
Yoruichi Toyama resisted the urge to tell him, "Simps never get a house."
It's easy to imagine that he harassed the female protagonist quite a bit.
Even after he, they, did "that kind of thing" together.
Suppressing her discomfort, Yoruichi Toyama tried her best to make her smile look quite gossipy.
"You...you can't do this!"
"This is clearly telling her that you can take whatever you want from her."
"You need to be more reserved, keep your distance, and make her feel like she can't figure you out..."
"Don't women all like this sense of mystery?"
It's unclear what exactly triggered San Guigu's reaction to such a completely politically incorrect statement.
"Yes, you're right..."
He muttered to himself as he drank the sake that Yoruichi Toyama had poured for him.
"I'm just too sincere, too sincere..."
"I'd give her my whole heart..."
"But she liked that...that ugly one..."
"Phantom!"
He uttered the last two words through gritted teeth in a vicious tone.
Yoruichi Toyama's eyebrows twitched.
Although San Guigu has an unusual appearance, he does not play the role of the Phantom in the opera "The Phantom of the Opera".
That was a role with a lot of screen time, requiring highly expressive acting skills.
This time, it's played by Shiro Ryuya.
To paraphrase Absinthe, the performance was neither good nor bad, and there is a lot of room for improvement in his acting skills.
However, Shiro Ryuya's appearance can hardly be described as "ugly".
Yoruichi Toyama deliberately asked, "You mean Miss Reina, she likes Mr. Shiro?"
