Unaware of the approaching danger, Eiji woke up at 10:25 in the morning.
After that, he decided to spend his day hanging out.
"Well, what should I have for lunch today?"
Without wearing sunglasses, Eiji stood out as he walked through the city.
Of course, he wasn't flaunting his natural handsomeness. It's just that wearing sunglasses in winter would cause condensation on the lenses, which made him uncomfortable.
"Having warm food is suitable for cold weather."
Stopping in front of a ramen shop, Eiji went in and ordered a bowl of ramen.
The ramen shop, initially quiet because it wasn't lunchtime yet, suddenly experienced a surge in customers, especially female customers.
Ignoring the covert glances of the women around him, Eiji calmly ate ramen.
He was numb to it.
There was no shortage of brave women; some tried to strike up a conversation with him, but Eiji only responded minimally.
His cold demeanor not only made the women give up, but they were even more impressed because he wasn't the type of guy easily obtained.
(How annoying. I should have worn a mask and a hood.)
Feeling his mealtime interrupted, Eiji hastened his eating. Afterward, he placed money under the bowl and left the ramen shop.
"Eiji, is that you?"
Hearing a woman's voice calling him from behind, Eiji turned around.
"Good day, Mei-san."
The woman was none other than Mei Mei, Gojo Satoru's and Geto Suguru's senior in high school.
As there were only a few students per grade in Jujutsu high school, Eiji knew all his senior and junior classmates.
In the past, his cousins had taken him to Jujutsu High School several times.
"Good day. It's quite a coincidence, are you heading somewhere?"
With her younger brother, Mei Mei stood in front of Eiji and started a casual conversation.
"Just strolling aimlessly. And him..."
Eiji glanced at the small, slender boy who showed hostility towards him.
"He's Ui Ui, my precious little brother."
"Onee-sama~"
Hearing that, Ui Ui's day felt sweet.
As a siscon, there was nothing better than sisterly affection.
"I see."
Eiji just nodded.
With memories of Lin Fan, he knew most of the important characters in this world, and the siscon boy in front of him was no exception.
Ui Ui possessed a Cursed Technique called Spatial Transference, which allowed him to teleport himself and others with him to locations and people he had marked.
Eiji felt that the mechanism of Spatial Transference was similar to Hiraishin no Jutsu.
(The role of this siscon boy in the future is to collect the corpses of Jujutsu Sorcerers defeated by Sukuna, including the body of Satoru Nii-san, which was split into two parts.) He thought without changing his expression.
"We're going shopping at the mall, care to join us, Eiji?"
"Thank you for the invitation, Mei-san, but I prefer to wander alone."
"Alright then, we'll be off. Give my regards to Gojo."
"Um."
Then, they parted ways, each taking a different direction.
After all, their relationship wasn't that close, just acquaintances.
Although Mei Mei was a beautiful woman, Eiji didn't like women who prioritized money above everything else.
"Now, where to next?"
Walking aimlessly, Eiji was unsure where to go.
"Let's go to the Tokyo Tower for sightseeing."
Setting his destination, he headed towards the Tokyo Tower.
"Excuse me, can I interview you? Just for a moment~"
Ten minutes into his walk, Eiji was stopped by a female reporter.
"..."
"Is this a live broadcast?"
He glanced at the cameraman pointing the camera at him.
"Yes, we're from NHK news broadcast, could you spare a moment? Just a moment~, I just want to ask a few questions."
The female reporter pleaded with a pleading tone in her voice.
"It's fine."
After a moment of contemplation, Eiji agreed to be interviewed.
"Thank you so much for your cooperation. You're very tall, are you of mixed blood from abroad?"
"No, my parents are pure Japanese."
"Wow, that's unexpected! If I may, could you tell me what kind of food your parents fed you to grow this tall? That way, maybe parents watching this broadcast can learn to make their children grow as tall as you."
"I don't know. My parents died in an accident when I was young. I was raised by relatives, so I don't know what kind of food my parents gave me."
"Eh?"
The answer was unexpected, and the female reporter felt guilty for asking about a sensitive topic.
"I apologize, I asked an impolite question."
"It's okay. Any other questions?"
Eiji didn't have any special feelings about his deceased parents.
"Ahem, judging from your appearance, you're a high school student, right?"
"That's correct."
"High school is the most beautiful time for young people. There are many young people your age seen dating everywhere, are you having a fight with your girlfriend, or are you on your way to a date location?"
"I don't have a girlfriend."
"That's a lie, right?!"
Not only the female reporter was surprised, but the viewers at home were also shocked.
The young man on the TV screen was even more handsome than most male idols and models. It couldn't be possible that he was still single, or do women nowadays not like handsome men?
"I'm not lying."
"..."
Seeing his serious expression, the female reporter believed him.
Then, she asked a few more questions.
The interview didn't last long, about 5 minutes.
The cameraman turned off the live broadcast, while the female reporter thanked Eiji.
"Goodbye."
Declining the dinner invitation from the female reporter, Eiji left quickly.
His destination: Tokyo Tower!
❀❀❀
The recording of Eiji's interview broadcast went viral on social media.
Female netizens even searched for his personal information, but after a long search, they found nothing.
They tried to find the school where Eiji attended. Unfortunately, none of the high school students claimed to know him.
This added to the mysterious impression of him, making him even more popular.
Some wealthy women even openly wrote on social media that they wanted to be Eiji's sugar mommy.
This sparked envy and jealousy from male netizens. They didn't expect that just a boring news interview would go so viral just because of a handsome young man.
Seeing the intensity of comments from women claiming Eiji as their husbu, made male netizens burn with jealousy.
Isn't he just a good looking guy? Why does it have to be such a big deal?
❀❀❀
Eiji, who was unaware of social media, was in chaos because his appearance was revealed to the public throughout Japan.
Currently, he was on the top floor of the Tokyo Tower, watching the view from the height.
"It's no wonder since ancient times, many people want to be at the top of the world. The feeling of holding everything in your grasp really intoxicates people easily."
The people below looked as small as ants, making those who were above feel like they could easily step on them.
"What's the point of ruling the world? Why did so many famous historical figures go through all that trouble? I've never understood." Eiji muttered softly.
