𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐊𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐄: A Game of Fate and Love: The Heart Full of Conspiracies

The idol's shadow

As Hino's loud voice filled the room, Shizuru slowly opened her eyes with a mild frown. The bright sunshine that filled their bedroom irritated her eyes, so she buried her head under the covers to block out the sunlight.

 As she tried to catch a few extra minutes of sleep, Hino protested, yelling, "GOOD MORNING VAMP-" but his yell was cut short when a flying pillow hit him in the face.

"Alright!~" he grumbled as he closed the curtains, allowing the couple to finally enjoy their peace and quiet for the morning.

As Hino and Shizuru sat down for their morning breakfast, they were both in a cheerful and relaxed mood. The morning sun was shining through their window, warming their faces and putting a smile on both of their faces. As they made some toast, Shizuru couldn't resist sneaking in a few peeks at Hino. She loved the way he moved as he sliced the bread, and the way he smiled back at her whenever she looked up. The couple was filled with joy as they thought about how much they loved each other. It was their perfect morning together!

Hino sat down near Shizuru to plan their next move. The couple discussed the details of their upcoming investigation and planned how to interview the people involved. They considered the possibility of siding with different factions to get the justice they desired. As they strategized, Shizuru took a sip of her tea and thought carefully about the plan they were hatching. She knew that their actions would have consequences, but she also knew that they couldn't afford to stand by and do nothing. The couple was determined to find the truth and make sure that justice was served.

The couple's day went by in a relaxed and casual manner. They both put on comfortable shirts and sat down at their respective laptops to conduct research. Shizuru sat on the bed, with her knees covered by a blanket as she searched on her laptop, while Hino sat at his desk. The room was a bit dark due to the blackout curtains Hino had chosen a while ago. The couple seemed to enjoy their day by researching and gathering information through various social media platforms.

Though their relationship was not filled with romance or passion, Hino and Shizuru always found comfort in each other's presence. They were never overly romantic or sentimental, but they appreciated each other's company and the quiet moments of everyday life. Even though they never had grand gestures or moments of intimacy, they still found a deep connection and warmth in each other. They had a comfort and stability, knowing that they always had the other by their side whenever they needed each other. 

Hino and Shizuru were engaged in a thoughtful and deep conversation about social media and the control of idols' content by their management agencies. Hino expressed his curiosity about how idols can express their thoughts and creativity through captions without the involvement of their management teams.

Shizuru nodded in agreement and posed a thoughtful question: "If management teams were writing for idols and capturing their content, it would be like having a role-play account, but the staff are actually role-playing idols."

This comment sparked a deep and meaningful discussion between the couple as they explored the possibilities and nuances of idol management through social media.

Shizuru turned to Hino with a determined look on her face. "If we can manage to interview them there, without the staff, it would be hard for us. Unless, we know where they are going everywhere." Hino was taken aback by Shizuru's suggestion. "Are we stalking them?" he asked, unsure if he wanted to go down this path. Shizuru sighed. "What are we doing all this for in the first place?" she asked. "For their deepfake justice, right?" she asked Hino.

"What if we get caught? or worse, something unexpected happens?" Hino asked with a worried look on his face. Shizuru remained calm and rational. "It's not stalking if we just want to interview them." She said. Hino thought for a moment before shaking his head. "Fine, but let's just try to be careful, okay?" he said. Shizuru nodded with a faint smile on her face. "It's not that hard to be careful." she said. "And besides, it's not like it's a crime trying to interview them, right?" she added.

Hino responded, "But you'll look like a paparazzi or someone who makes fake news." Shizuru countered, "I saw them begging my producer and crying for their innocence, which was not proven."

Hino's eyebrows shot up in surprise, and he replied, "Wait- you saw it?" Shizuru responded quickly, "Yes! It was hard for me to walk through the office that day, I felt trapped by the people around me!"

Hino turned to Shizuru with a look of confusion on his face. "But how did you manage to get there then?" he asked. Shizuru responded quickly, "I don't know! I just walked through those crowded people, and as I was about to go to my producer's office, I saw him in the window outside and those idols were chasing after him!"

As Hino listened to Shizuru's story, he couldn't help but feel pity for the idols' innocence. He started to imagine what it would be like to be in Shizuru's shoes, and realized that it would be hard for him to handle the frustrations and difficulties that she was going through. Hino was starting to understand the deepfake justice that Shizuru was seeking, but he still didn't know if this was the right way to go about it. Hino was conflicted about what to do and how he should move forward.

Shizuru turned to Hino with a determined look on her face. "If we can convince them to side with us and they will be on our side as well," she said. Hino was unsure of this plan, and he wanted to ensure that they could trust the idols' words, but he knew that they needed as much information as possible to create the best story. He agreed to try to convince the idols to side with them.

Hino was taken aback by Shizuru's suggestion. He had been zoning out and was now startled by her ideas. "I found a user that used to go to where the idol was trying to go," Shizuru explained, "I can see his Twitter photos."

Hino, however, was skeptical. "But in that case, you are not sure if the idol was there," he replied, "Because that user is a fan, so he or she probably went there because they supported the idol. Not necessarily so they could meet them in person." 

"Besides," Hino continued, "The location that the user went to probably wasn't very recent. It could have been from last year or maybe even last month. And without that user's confirmation that the idol was there, we just have speculation and nothing concrete to work with. We need more proof."
