I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

"What, what is he talking about... wants us to join the club?"

"Look, the tricks of religious pyramid schemes have been exposed... After filling out the membership application form, you will be asked to donate all your property, and then you will be drained by many female church members, restricting your personal freedom, and asking you to recruit relatives and friends into the membership ..."

"It sounds pretty good... wait, why are you so proficient?"

The audience hadn't recovered from the sudden "invitation to join the club". As the wind blew across the venue, more and more people in black robes showed their true faces in front of the camera.

"Your Majesty Yataro Iwasaki, on behalf of the Mitsubishi Foundation, announces that all believers who sincerely join the 'Aum Shinrikyo' will receive free housing and luxury cars sponsored by us..."

"Mira-san, it's me, Hoshiki Yuko! Those who support her, please join me in embracing the great 'Aum Kingdom'..."

"And I, Shimizu Fumi, hereby promise...to become the companion of the God-Fated One, and I will have the opportunity to co-star with Fumi in the next Wuma special!"

Not only the usual political figures, but even business tycoons, girl group idols, and action actresses who are familiar to the general public, all of them issued a convincing "recruitment declaration" to the camera with pious and fanatical expressions.

"Are these 'political elites', 'Forbes regulars', 'top idols', '' are crazy, and openly stand on the side of the cult?!"

"What do you know, the richer a person is, the easier it is to be brainwashed by religious pyramid schemes..."

"How could it be? My beloved Yuko was definitely coerced, and she chose 'social suicide' to save her life! Damn, I don't know if they treated her like this or that..."

"However, if it is possible to co-star with Fumi-chan and leave an 'indestructible number', it seems that it is not impossible to consider temporarily joining a cult..."

"I see. This must be a very popular face-changing technology recently. You see, they deliberately wear black robes and masks to facilitate automatic recognition by AI software!"

Faced with the "personal statements" and "warm invitations" of these famous and high-ranking people on weekdays, the audience in front of the screen couldn't believe it and went into an uproar.

"Everyone in front of the screen, just think about it seriously, and the things that happened to you one after another recently, you will understand that what I said is true..."

"Wake up from the false 'equality'. From hundreds of thousands of years ago to the present, this world has been a dark forest where natural selection and the weak prey on the strong. It has never changed!"

"The end of the world is approaching, and the whole world will become a paradise for resentful spirits and false gods, and human beings, the most vulnerable creatures, can only be powerlessly reduced to their dolls and food."

"Even if you are lucky enough to survive in the dark world, all kinds of sufferings called birth, old age, sickness, death, not getting what you want, meeting with resentment, and parting from love will easily obliterate your humanity, swallow everything you cherish, Destroy your lives!"

Following the despairing words of the "Chairman" wearing a big tengu mask, some people were restless and some were silent.

"Enough, what about the broadcasting bureau, why don't you interrupt the signal and let them talk nonsense here?!"

"Hey, what they said, shouldn't it be true? Aren't there been a lot of strange rumors on the Internet recently?"

"Could it be that the 'figures' I saw on the day of the Obon Festival were real, and not the hallucinations caused by inhaling 'sarin gas' as the doctor said?!"

The pressure and doubts accumulated in my heart little by little on weekdays gradually surfaced.

In the past six months, many strange "natural disasters" have occurred one after another, causing countless people to lose their relatives and become displaced.

Many videos, photos, and various versions of "truth theory" have been quietly circulated in the market place and on the Internet.

People who have experienced countless disasters and are full of holes are like camels with heavy haystacks on their backs.

And the public "live broadcast" of Aum Shinrikyo today is like flying in the air, the last straw that may fall and destroy their belief at any time.

"It's an honor! I, the president of the Aum Shinrikai, Kotomine Jiro, solemnly declare here today..."

A pair of slender black wings stretched out from the back of the man who claimed to be the president.

"The kingdom of Aum is officially established!"

Then, he reached out and took off the big tengu mask on his face.

"Today, anyone who joins the kingdom of Aum, wears a black robe, and recites my name will be given a 'miracle', and from then on, he will be extraordinary and free from vulgarity, mastering endless power and a long life!"

Under the mask, on the handsome face, those incomparably determined eyes seem to have the power to penetrate people's hearts.

"Think seriously, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for you... The train to the Kingdom of God is about to leave for Tokyo..."

Then, Kotomine Jiro took a huge scroll from behind his waist, and slapped it under his feet...

"At that time, animals that refuse to 'evolve' will be eliminated, and only those who become 'god people' are eligible to walk on the land of the kingdom of God!"

The thick scroll unfolded from the top of the train, stretched endlessly along the rear compartment, and disappeared into the darkness towards the rear of the train.

"At this historic moment of 'race replacement', making the right choice is also a manifestation of 'divinity'..."

In the unrolled scrolls, there were impressive black and white scrolls depicting gods and ghosts without sticking to the rules, densely packed with various ghosts with strange postures and terrifying faces.

"Everyone, may we have the honor to meet in the Kingdom of God!"

Amid Kotomine Jiro's frenzied farewell, the live broadcast stopped abruptly.

Major video sites, TV stations and advertising screens have restored their original content.

"Dear viewers, here is an urgent news... just now, the TV signal and network of the entire Tokyo Metropolis were hijacked by the famous cult organization "Aum Shinrikyo" in an unprecedented large-scale hacker..."

"In the name of promoting superstition, taking the opportunity to defraud property, steal organs, and human trafficking are common tricks of the Aum Shinrikyo... Please spread the word to each other, and don't trust this live broadcast or anything said by the cultists..."

"...At present, the Metropolitan Police Department has issued a wanted warrant, and it is believed that the identified persons involved in the case will be arrested soon."

Immediately, major TV stations, websites, and advertising screens uniformly issued an overwhelming "rumor refuting statement" in response to the "live broadcast" just now.

Obviously, the official organization was not idle during this "uninterruptible" live broadcast.

"That's it?!"

"Now these emerging online religions, through some hacking methods, just find a few politicians to stand on the platform and talk about it..."

"Hey, I'm looking forward to this year's election even more. Will those MPs just participate?"

"In the end, nothing happened, it was just talk, and I thought there would be a more exciting performance... It's over, I have to go to work!"

In just a few seconds, the people who came back to their senses smiled, and were pulled back to their original life track by the pressure of "survival".

However, that farce-like live broadcast seemed to be quietly engraved in everyone's heart.
