The plot thiccens

thanks for the chapter!

 

[Ochrolv]

Ya when I saw the title I was expecting it to be about bust size but I didn't think we would get another retired (& busty) AV actress thrown into the mix. Can't wait for the investigation to unfold into madness. Thanks for the translations.

Theres two of them now
GLORIOUS

 

[crimeone]

Hahahahahahahahaba I know it, that waitress look suspicious, and the girl sniffing the underwear has guts for doing it. Well at least that clears everything up of their problems.

I assume the manager and staff member will remain in the dark and this is all but confirming the mystery for the reader

And now it becomes a fun game of watching them scramble and scurry about attempting to solve it for themselves.

It could be a red herring, but I'm not immediately seeing how this chapter becomes one big coincidence with the eye shape of the waitress, her reaction to the FL, the fact the "panty smell (uhm)" was tracked to the waitress, Master confirming the panties were from the co-star of that film....just, so many pieces lined up all at once, that if this ends up being nothing, it would be a feat to explain it all away as happenstance by the author in a convincing manner.

That's when you whip out the sister who was the real AV star and FL only met the waitress through her. Then it turns out being confused for a popular AV star has been recurring problem for the FL.

true - though even that would sold the mystery as it pertains to the FL, because it just confirms that she's not actually the AV star the ML assumed she was, which is the question mark premise of the series up to this point. Even if the Manager doesn't discover this, it's still "solved" for the reader.

Which, that's fine if that's the aim (one way or the other), but revealing it to the ML & accomplice employee is what would end the series, I think, unless the focus of the narrative shifts toward something other than the hook of the series.

The mystery is dead? All that we have left is the shenanigans.

 

[UdenEmpati]

also why is no one talking about how Accomplice Employee managed to track down a person, in a noisy food-filled bar during rush hour, by the scent of her old used panties alone

That's not even dog status, that's like a superpowered bloodhound

I think the point is moreso we know she's the AV star but the main character doesn't. It'd be pretty weird to ask a coworker 'hey were you in an AV before?' xdd

 

[Slingerman]

"What am I, a dog?" Apparently a bloodhound!

The mystery has been dead since chapter 1. It's always been all shenanigans.

Thanks for the translation.

I think it's more that this might be the most overt the title's been about her being the AV they're wondering about. At least the number of coincidences that piled up in just the latter half of the chapter would be very hard to swallow if the author handwaved them away with regard to the reader.

But I think confirming the mystery for us is fine, because the antics of the manager & accomplice are one of the primary foci of the story, and are plenty fun to read and witness whatever our meta knowledge. And I think there could be fun potential in us knowing the answer, and seeing how that stacks up against whatever plans/theories/shenanigans the ML cooks up to try and figure it out himself.
