Chapter 92
R-Honey, not R18.

R-Honey, not R18.
The next day. 29th Sunday afternoon.
Director Sayuri held a press conference as Director General of the Extraordinary Ability Bureau of MIC.
Before going to work at the MIC, me, Kiriha, Maria, and Miina were watching the live broadcast in the living room.
In front of dozens of reporters and cameras, Director Sayuri raised her voice with dignity.
“The Oriental Union, or OU, has demanded that we, the Japanese government, stop the gold trade and the mining of methane hydrates. They also said that if we do not comply with their demands, they will stop trade with Japan as an economic sanction. But we will not give in to the OU’s demands!”
In a strong, dependable voice, Director Sayuri continued in a clear voice.
“The gold bullion trade will change the gold market and disrupt the economic market, and methane hydrate mining will destroy the ecosystem. Both of these claims are nothing more than slanderous slander and rhetoric without any scientific basis.”
Her tone became even more forceful as she flatly denied the claims made by the OU, a nation as powerful as the U.S.
“And if we stop importing food from the Pacific Asian Union (PAU) for the bullion trade, the Japanese people will suffer from hunger. If we stop methane hydrate mining, the Japanese people will suffer from an energy shortage. I do not think it is necessary to force the Japanese people to do hard labor to meet the unreasonable demands of the OU.”
One of the reporters asked a question in a strong tone.
“But what should Japan’s export industry do if trade with the OU is halted?”
“We have the plan to deal with that.”
Rather than the reporters, Director Sayuri discusses the issues as if she were speaking to the people on the other side of the camera.
As evidence of this, my eyes were constantly locked with those of Director Sayuri, and I felt as if she were speaking to me personally.
Then Director Sayuri explained the countermeasures in an orderly and logical manner.
To create diamond semiconductors with the power of a gifted person.
To mine cobalt and manganese to mass produce new cars with new all-solid-state batteries.
However, since Miina had been producing cobalt and manganese inexhaustibly from seawater, the amount of cobalt and manganese we would actually mine would be minimal.
“Wait a minute. Then won’t the profits be monopolized only by Tomita Motors, which can manufacture the new all-solid-state battery?”
“Other automakers can either buy the battery from Tomita or manufacture it under a license agreement. The government will bear the cost of the license agreement.”
“How can electronics manufacturers afford to buy large quantities of diamond parts at a time when Japan’s economy has just collapsed?”
“The automobile manufacturers, too, will be able to pay for their cobalt and manganese, as well as diamond parts, in installments.”
“What about industries other than automakers and electronics manufacturers?”
“Other industries are less dependent on the OU. The government plans to provide individual guarantee support to other industries and manufacturers.”
“If only Japan introduces 6G, won’t that cause friction with other countries?”
“Why would it cause friction?”
Director Sayuri narrowed her gaze and pointed a sharp question at the reporter.
“Eh, no, because if Japan gains power, it will be a threat to other countries.”
Well, then, let me ask you, the U.S. and OU are among the world’s top nations in terms of both military and economic power, but do these two countries always frighten foreign countries and cause friction? XXX-san from the XXX political editor department of a newspaper.”
The sudden mention of the company’s name and full name unnerved the reporter.
He must have thought that if he criticized the U.S. or OU here, he would be made a target on the Internet.
The reporter shrunk back, saying, “No, that’s enough”.
“Director Sayuri is looking sharp today.”
“I have no sympathy for the reporter, but I’m kind of sorry to hear that.”
Kiriha grinned and Miina operated the MR screen.
“But this time, the psychic’s honor has been preserved. This morning’s news report about Ijuin-kun was on the Internet, so people were saying, ‘Another psychic crime,’ but look.”
On the screen Miina showed me, comments praising us were being written one after another.
“Take that, OU!”
[You can’t beat Japan when we have Naimine and Okui.]
[Japan will be safe with the new Big Four, including Arima.]
[I want to be buried in Director Ryuzaki’s big breasts.]
[I want to be surrounded by beautiful girls with big breasts and beat Okui to a pulp.]
“I’m glad. I see that all the bad publicity has been dispelled.”
“Maria, please don’t ignore the wicked comments. Because I’m going to be Shiva.”
I heard a click of the shutter and looked up to see Miina taking a selfie.
On another MR screen that Miina had displayed, there was a clear image of me surrounded by Miina, Kiriha, and Maria.
“I wonder what would happen to Honey-kun if I posted this picture?”
“Wait, that’s not funny. Or rather, you’re not that kind of a character, right?”
“Hmm~, but I’ve stopped being a beautiful woman with no flaws from any angle.”
I wonder.
At first, she was a girl of dignity, intelligence, and open-mindedness, but lately, Miina had been showing her devilish side a little bit.
It must be the influence of Kiriha, it must be so.
“Then Honey, it’s time to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, what’s wrong?”
“Kiriha, you’re R-rated as of today.”
“I’ve always been R-rated, no?”
She looked happy for some reason, chuckled, and then stuck her tongue out and winked at me.
“R-Honey. No boys are allowed to see me naked except for Honey, right?”
“….., Can you wait five minutes before we go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications?”
I promptly sat down like I was in a PE session right then and there.
Miina was using [REC] without carelessness.
