Hayato’s Lecture
“So this happened yesterday—”
“Anyway, I’m just glad you’re alive…”
Hayato and I met up at that same family restaurant as before, sitting across from each other.
He must have liked the carbonara, because Hayato ordered it again.
I ordered a parfait.
“Did you manage to get her to leave?”
“I worked my ass off to get her out. She was seriously trying to stay over, so it was a pain.”
The final blow was when I said, ‘If you won’t listen to me, I’ll start hating you.’ she left crying.
I felt a little guilty, but honestly, I locked the door. The moment she got inside, she was already out of line.
“Your mistake this time was lacking netiquette. You could have prevented this if you’d tried.”
“I’m reflecting on that.”
I’d never heard of a fan actually showing up at your place…
Do people like that even exist in real life?
“Usually it’s the other way around, but this time was too extreme…”
“Yeah… I mean, trying to track down YouTubers or VTubers is one thing, but I’m just an ordinary person, right?”
VTubers getting fans send them gifts with trackable items inside, or having bugs planted, YouTubers getting their homes broken into, suffering noise pollution…
These are all incidents streamers face from viewers. This time, it was the opposite.
An ordinary person being stalked by a streamer.
“I reviewed the archives, but in this Gesser case, some viewers commented things like ‘That’s near where I live!’ when their neighborhood appeared on screen. And you did too.”
“Was that the problem?”
“Well, there were other issues before that… but the biggest problem was probably Twitter.”
“Twitter?”
“You were sharing too much personal info. We’re adults so it’s not as bad, but these days even a landscape photo can instantly reveal where it was taken. If you were a student, your school uniform would give away your school. And then there’s that photo of your boat. Taking it and posting it online might be fine, but you should shift the time or add a caption like ‘I’m here on vacation’… If you post it in real-time, people can figure out your location from the timetable, right? This time especially.”
“…”
Hayato’s logical punch left me speechless.
“Also… could you open your phone and let me borrow it for a sec?”
“Sure?”
“Thanks… Here, like this, see… just as I thought…”
Hayato operated my phone and found an unfamiliar app installed.
“(´・ω・) What the heck is this?”
“TraceLink. It’s a constant location-sharing app that sends your location to linked smartphones at set intervals. And this one here is Quiet Mic. It’s an app that lets you record audio without notifications using linked smartphones. So basically, she is monitoring your movements and picking up your voice too.”
“(’ω’) Wha-!!?”
“Right? Yozuki Mei san.”
Hayato’s gaze shifted behind me.
“…Impressive, LoliO Heart-san.”
Mei-chan, sitting in the seat behind me, slowly lifted her face and turned to look at us.
“Hmph. I saw you yesterday. I also witnessed you making contact with Tenrai.”
“Fufufu, you’re no ordinary lolicon, are you?”
“I’m a true lolicon. This observational eye of mine, capable of discerning whether a girl is truly a first-year middle schooler, can grasp her appearance even in that brief time. If you really were a first-year middle schooler, I could even tell your measurements…”
No, this is a huge problem!
“This is perfect timing. It’s actually helpful that you’re here. I want you to hear my opinion.”
Faced with Hayato’s unusually serious expression, Mei-chan also dropped her smile and adopted a serious look.
“Why don’t you come over here to talk?”
Hayato gestured for her to join us, and she sat down next to me.
A strangely sweet scent tickled my nostrils.
My thoughts were being completely overtaken by pink.
“Excuse me for sitting next to you.”
“…Yeah.”
Why can’t I speak up like I did yesterday, me? (cry)
