My wife believes me; how could I be a cuckold?

Despite having prepared himself mentally, Makoto Asano still felt somewhat disappointed and helpless when he heard Lilith personally deny his idea.

However, since he hadn't had much hope to begin with, his disappointment was limited.

In fact, even if it's just ordinary hypnosis, it's a very useful skill. Not only can it be used to cure insomnia, but it can also be very convenient for petty theft.

To maintain rigor, he asked a few more questions, such as what limitations this skill might have.

And it turns out there is.

For example, this skill can only affect one person at a time.

For example, the timing of applying the skill can affect the effectiveness of hypnosis, that is, how quickly the person falls asleep.

Simply put, if the person being affected is in a comfortable, warm, and restful environment, the skill will take effect very quickly.

Conversely, if the environment is unsuitable, it will make it take longer for people to fall asleep. In fact, if the environment is too bad, hypnosis can only induce drowsiness but not actually make people fall asleep.

Overall, these are all reasonable restrictions, which are in line with common sense and not unacceptable.

What Asano Makoto found somewhat regrettable was the cooldown time of this skill.

According to Lilith, because her power has not yet fully recovered, this skill can only be used once a week.

However, as the level increases, the cooldown time of this skill will gradually shorten, and once it is fully restored, it can be used once a day.

However, it's too early to talk about these things now, and a week's cooldown period is indeed a bit too long, so Makoto Asano directly abandoned his plan to find someone to conduct the experiment.

He originally planned to go to Okubo Park, find a random girl on the street, go to a hotel, and then test the effects of his skill.

But considering the week-long CD, he decided to give up after thinking about it.

What if there's a situation within this week where this skill is needed?

Fortunately, despite the various limitations of this skill, if it can successfully put the affected person to sleep, as long as there is no natural disaster such as a high-level earthquake or a bucket of ice water being poured on them, the person will remain asleep until they have slept for eight hours.

After asking all the questions he needed to, Makoto Asano praised Lilith a couple of times, rested at home for a while, and then went out.

He was busy until 5:30 p.m. before he drove his newly bought car home.

Today, he first called the insurance company and the 4S store to get his car, which was damaged by hail, repaired.

Actually, it didn't take much time. Since he bought the most expensive full insurance, he didn't have to handle anything. After the insurance company assessed the damage, they towed his car to the repair shop. He just submitted some documents, glanced at the paperwork, and that was it.

Because the car was severely damaged, the repair time is expected to be long, about a month and a half.

Considering that it's really not possible to get by without a car in a nasty place like Shinjuku, especially after almost being crushed by the trains on his way to the parking lot today, Makoto Asano's desire to buy a new car for transportation has been completely aroused.

He went back to the Audi dealership he had visited before and bought a new car.

This was his second time here, and the person who greeted him was still the same young female saleswoman.

However, upon seeing him, for some reason, the salesperson, who is now the manager of this branch, became very excited, which puzzled him somewhat.

Upon hearing that he was planning to buy a new car, the salesman became even more enthusiastic than before.

However, since he already owned a luxury car and only wanted to buy a car for commuting, he didn't buy anything particularly good; he simply bought an Audi A6L that was in stock at the dealership.

With all sorts of miscellaneous fees added, the top-of-the-line A6L cost him 6 million yen, which is roughly equivalent to 50 yuan.

For Makoto Asano, this amount of money was basically a drop in the ocean.

After completing various tasks and receiving rewards, his personal assets have reached nearly 500 million yen.

You hear a lot, right?

However, considering what Makoto Asano wanted to do next, this amount of money might not be enough, so he had to find a way to get some more.

After spending some time completing the formalities, and then declining the saleswoman's request to go out for dinner that evening and ignoring her request, Asano Makoto drove away amidst her somewhat disappointed gaze.

After resolving the car issue, Makoto Asano visited a reputable law firm and consulted a lawyer about a few questions.

He asked many questions, but out of respect for "Yukichi Fukuzawa," the lawyer was not impatient and answered them in great detail.

Once he understood what he wanted to know, his plan had a clear direction, and he had exchanged contact information with the lawyer, his matter was basically resolved.

Before going home, he went to the Shin-Okubo Shopping Center and bought some random little things—mainly gifts for the girls, such as small necklaces and accessories, and also bought a few clothes for himself.

After buying his things, he drove home.

On his way up from the underground parking garage, he stopped by the lobby and had Lilith install his second newly purchased pinhole camera at the entrance of the apartment building's lobby.

Although Lilith's size has increased considerably after the upgrade, she is still invisible to everyone except Makoto Asano.

Therefore, Lilith, who has wings and can fly, and is invisible to others, is really convenient when doing certain things.

When he took the elevator up to the ninth floor, he installed another one in the corridor, pointing it towards his own home and the door of the neighbor's house.

With this, the "surveillance array" that Makoto Asano had envisioned for a long time was finally completed.

Now he'll know in advance when a potential love interest comes looking for him, so he won't have to worry about them running into each other.

Moreover, he no longer needs to worry about being caught red-handed by Yamada Yuta when he goes to do bad things with Miyajima Eriko.

Thinking this, he prepared to go next door to say hello to Eriko Miyajima.

After all, he hadn't seen Eriko for a day, and he missed her somewhat. Moreover, reporting his day's events to his girlfriends was the best way to appease them.

However, at that moment, he suddenly saw Yamada Yuta returning home on the surveillance footage in the lobby on the first floor.

Perhaps he has finally realized that Eriko Miyajima is more important than work, because Yuta Yamada has been going home very early these past two days.

Seeing him take the elevator upstairs, Makoto Asano had no choice but to abandon his idea and sat down on the sofa, feeling somewhat dejected.

But just when he thought he was going to spend the night alone and could only amuse himself by playing with succubi, his phone suddenly rang.

Chapter 238 Touching Your Legs (3K)

After seeing Yamada Yuta go home, Asano Makoto originally planned to find something to do to pass the time and then go to sleep.

But just then, his cell phone suddenly rang several times in a row.

Someone sent him a message.

Although his phone kept vibrating, as if something urgent had happened, Makoto Asano seemed completely unhurried as he slowly took out his phone.

He probably knew who was messaging him, because unless there was something important, only two people would message him every day.

Considering that it's almost 6 PM, there's only one possibility left.

After all, at this time, Yuna Kanno, who had already finished school, should be studying in the school library. She would only say goodnight to him when she went to bed at midnight.

Asano Makoto calmly opened his phone and, as he expected, all the messages were from Konno Yuuka.

"Finally off work! I'm free!"

"But I'm so tired."

"The kitten is so tired it's lying flat on its back.JPG"

"Let me tell you, that client representative was incredibly annoying today!"

“My posture was perfectly correct, and I’ve always done it this way before, but she kept pointing and gesturing. After I corrected my movements according to her instructions, she still wasn’t satisfied and told me to go back to the original posture.”

"That's outrageous! I even suspect she's deliberately making things difficult for me!"

"Anger.JPG"

"Eyes shooting fire.JPG"

"But their clothes are really nice, good-looking, and of good quality. They even gave me two sets as a gift because I liked them... so I'll pass this time."

"By the way, I found a great shop here, let me share it with you."

"Here's the address. You can come and try it sometime. I can take you there."

"There are many fun places here, but unfortunately I've been too busy with work and haven't had time to explore them properly next time I have the chance!"

"Do you want to come?"

"And also, today I..."

"Haha, isn't that interesting?"

"..."

"Ah! I've been talking so much, I forgot to show you the clothes. Wait a minute, I'll take a picture of you! See what you think."

Konno Yuuka's messages were always like this: complicated and detailed. She would tell Asano Makoto everything about what she did and ate that day, and what happened.

She would complain to Makoto Asano about the unpleasant things that happened to her that day, and she would also share the happiness she felt that day. They would talk about everything, no matter how small or big.

Makoto Asano would occasionally share some of his daily life with her in response, though most of it was abridged or simply made up, such as playing games at home all day.

As usual, Konno Yuuka sent a lot of messages, including many cute emojis, but the first thing Asano Makoto saw was the last one, the selfie she always attached to her messages.

Although she said it was a photo taken on the spot, judging from the angle of the photo and the very subtle signs of photo editing, Makoto Asano felt that she must have spent a lot of time taking such a satisfactory photo before sending it over.

In other words, she only starts chatting with herself after she has carefully taken all the photos.

Makoto Asano had always known about Yuuka Konno's little secret, but he never intended to expose it.

After all, the other party's actions were a bargain for him, and there was no need for it; more importantly, it was detrimental to both parties.

If he were to reveal it, and Konno Yuuka got angry and refused to post it again, where would he go to see these beautiful "private photos" that his fans couldn't see and that were only sent to him?

So after Konno Yuuka sent the photos, Asano Makoto first saved them to his phone's private folder as usual, and then began to admire them carefully.

In the photo, Konno Yuuka is sitting in the back seat of a car, dressed casually and lazily, looking like she has just finished work and is about to return home.

It's late September now, and in Japan, it's already evening at around 5 pm, so the lighting inside the car isn't very good; it's rather dim.

However, the dim sunlight shining through the car window onto her added a touch of hazy beauty to her.

Since her work was over and she no longer needed to maintain that model-like, polished look, she casually tied her long gray hair into a low ponytail, her wispy bangs partially obscuring her small, fair forehead, making her look very relaxed.

However, in Makoto Asano's opinion, this seemingly casual hairstyle still reveals her subtle thoughts.

After all, whose ponytail can be tied up so neatly and smoothly that every strand is perfectly in place?
