Chinese Bullet Comments:
[Ah! Sister Aya is too kind!]
[No, Goddess! This guy clearly has ulterior motives!]
[We're done for! Her kindness is being exploited! He is despicable!]
[Using someone's sympathy to get close? Disgusting!]
Japanese Bullet Comments:
[Success! Master Tokushi's acting worked perfectly!]
[Ha ha ha! Have the Chinese forgotten their own ancient proverb: "All's fair in war"?]
[This is the wisdom of the ninja! Blame her for being so naive!]
[Quick! Now's your chance, Kawaguchi! Unleash your skills and show these fools the true power of a ninja!]
Seeing Aya's reaction, Kawaguchi Tokushi felt an overwhelming joy, almost bursting into laughter!
He stammered his thanks profusely, while fumbling for his phone with one hand, his fingers secretly manipulating the device with the other.
As he pulled out his phone, he subtly flicked his finger—
A minuscule, lifelike mechanical "fly" materialized silently in the air, drifting toward "Aya's" golden hair like an ordinary insect.
Under the cover of night, it was nearly impossible to detect.
Nie Bing and Lu Yue had no objections to "Aya's" decision to take a photo with Kawaguchi Tokushi. Though they harbored no favorable impressions of him, it was her choice, and they had no right to interfere.
Admittedly, Kawaguchi Tokushi's act as a fervent fan had lowered their guard considerably.
At most, they found his fanaticism a bit excessive, but neither noticed the "fly's" presence.
Meanwhile, Little Ya and Sister Jingjing exchanged a knowing glance. They were certain the man from Japan had ulterior motives for approaching "Aya."
But Little Ya trusted Cifera's cunning; the mischievous "cat" couldn't possibly be fooled.
Since Cifera chose to play along, it must be out of curiosity—she wanted to see what tricks he was up to, and Little Ya was more than happy to indulge her~
After thinking for a moment, Little Ya subtly shook her head at Sister Jingjing, signaling her not to intervene and to observe how things unfolded.
Neither of them noticed the presence of the "Fly."
Unbeknownst to anyone, the moment the nearly imperceptible "Fly" was released, Cifera's extraordinary vision and observation skills had already captured it.
Oh? An interesting little gadget. Is this your trick, Kawaguchi Tokushi?
Cifera chuckled inwardly, already guessing the "Fly's" purpose. Yet she maintained her goddess-like gentle smile, feigning complete unawareness as she prepared to pose for a photo with Kawaguchi Tokushi.
Just then, the live broadcast suddenly cut to a close-up shot, clearly capturing the slowly flying "Fly."
Viewers in both China and Japan were immediately stunned.
Chinese viewers immediately flooded the chat with comments like, "Director, pay attention to the timing!"
But the director wasn't done yet. Almost simultaneously, a split-screen of Nie Junfeng in the studio appeared on the side of the screen.
Nie Junfeng, his face grave, held up a stack of documents and began explaining rapidly:
"Viewers, according to intelligence we've just received simultaneously from the Japanese Production Team, the tiny insect visible on screen is Kawaguchi Tokushi's secret ninja tool—the 'Fly'!
"This is an extremely precise miniature tracking and eavesdropping device, so lifelike that it's nearly impossible to detect. However, it requires precise close-range deployment to accurately attach to its target.
"This is the first time this information has been revealed publicly. Even Japanese viewers are learning about it for the first time.
"From this, we can clearly deduce that all of Contestant Kawaguchi Tokushi's previous actions, including his performance as a 'fanatical fan,' were ultimately aimed at getting close to Miss Aya to deploy this 'Fly' for subsequent tracking and eavesdropping!
"We have every reason to believe that his next theft target will very likely be Miss Aya and her group!"
Nie Junfeng's tone was utterly certain, even more so than in any of his previous analyses.
"Therefore, based on my assessment, Kawaguchi's plan is certain to succeed. The 'Fly' will undoubtedly attach itself to Miss Aya, giving him an overwhelming advantage!"
As soon as Nie Junfeng finished speaking, his image vanished without a trace of hesitation.
In an instant, the bullet comments exploded again, but the Chinese side was now even more fervent and... ecstatic?!
[Holy shit! So that's the plan! How sinister!]
[Just as I suspected, he's up to no good! Run, Sister Aya, run!]
[Wait... wasn't that... the Nie Family Patriarch? Doesn't that mean...?]
["Certain to succeed," "will undoubtedly attach," "overwhelming advantage"?!]
[Hahaha! It's done! Brothers! We've got this! He doesn't stand a chance!]
[The Patriarch is going all out! Kawaguchi Tokushi, you're finished!]
Let the world witness the power of the Eastern Great Nation's top-secret weapon!
[The "Poison Milk" God has blessed us!]
The Japanese audience had also seen Nie Junfeng's analysis, which the Japanese Production Team had specifically cut out and displayed with real-time subtitles.
This was the idea of Tsukikyo Mari, the Chief Director of the Japanese Production Team.
As the Chief Director, she naturally had a clearer understanding of the contestants' abilities than the average person.
Moreover, since her husband was also a member of the Kawaguchi Clan, she easily guessed Kawaguchi Tokushi's intentions and had long anticipated his release of the "Fly."
By choosing this moment to publicly reveal the "Fly's" information—even making it known to the Chinese side—she aimed to force Chinese experts to analyze just how formidable their contestants were, satisfying Japanese viewers while simultaneously frustrating their Chinese counterparts.
Of course, such a plan couldn't have been a spur-of-the-moment decision, given that it involved classified intelligence about the Kawaguchi Style Ninjutsu.
But after sharing her idea with Kawaguchi Urasuke, he offered his full support, declaring this the perfect opportunity to reveal the "Fly's" secrets!
For the sake of "demonstrating national prestige," sacrificing a few clan secrets was a worthwhile price to pay!
With Kawaguchi Urasuke's backing, Tsukikyo Mari boldly shared the "Fly"-related intelligence with Guo Tao's team, urging them to thoroughly analyze it for the Chinese audience.
Although Guo Tao understood her ulterior motive to show off, the request was reasonable and would greatly enhance the program's appeal. He immediately tasked Nie Junfeng with providing a detailed analysis, following her suggestion.
Japanese bullet comments:
[Oh? This commentator is surprisingly fair-minded!]
[His analysis is spot-on! Exactly! That's Master Tokushi's brilliance!]
[Ha ha ha! Even China's own experts admit Master Tokushi is on the verge of victory!]
[The situation looks excellent! Chinese viewers, just admit defeat already!]
[Thank you, objective Chinese guest!]
Seeing the Japanese audience completely oblivious to the gravity of the situation, reveling in self-congratulatory glee, and even praising Nie Junfeng, the Chinese viewers couldn't contain themselves any longer. Some began sarcastically showering compliments:
[Exactly! Inspector Nie's analysis is spot-on! Kawaguchi will definitely win!]
[Master Tokushi is amazing! His Ninjutsu is invincible!]
[We're doomed! Even the most authoritative and accurate analyst, Inspector Nie, has said it. It seems we really have to admit defeat this time!]
[Tears in my eyes, I offer early congratulations to Kawaguchi for his resounding success!]
These bullet comments left Japanese viewers dumbfounded, thinking the Chinese audience had finally given in:
[Sugoi! It seems even they have finally bowed down before absolute power!]
[What choice do they have? Their own experts have admitted defeat. How can ordinary people dare defy their analysis?]
W[hy did they wait so long? Admitting defeat now won't earn them our respect!]
[Seeing them their arrogant heads is just so... KIMOJI! So satisfying!]
[Master Kawaguchi Tokushi! Bring glory to our nation! You have my eternal support!]
Amidst the flurry of bullet comments, Kawaguchi Tokushi's inner elation, and the jubilant cheers of the Japanese audience, who believed victory was assured—
An unexpected twist occurred on the screen!
