Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful scumbag.

Hoshino Hideyuki replied with a smile, "Just you wait! I'll eat them all right now!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and began to taste the chocolate.

“Delicious~”

Standing behind the fox, Ichiki watched as it enjoyed her gift, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

But after a while.

Seeing that the fox had nothing more to say and seemed to have truly focused all its attention on the dessert, no longer caring about anything else, a hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes...

Forget it, that's just how that dead fox is, there's nothing to look forward to...

"You're expecting this, aren't you?"

But just then, the fox suddenly raised its head and raised its eyebrows at Ijichi Kikuri: "After giving you such a carefully prepared Christmas gift, you must be looking forward to a return gift, right?"

"Yes~"

"All that previous behavior was a lie. How could a clever fox forget such an important day?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the fox turned around on the spot...

The next second, a large gift box appeared at his feet, and he transformed back into his fox form, covered in red ribbons, and squatted inside the gift box.

"This is my Christmas present, Fox!"

"Huh? Huh!"

Kikuri Ijichi was stunned when she saw the fox that had been packaged up.

However, what followed immediately...

puff!

With a puff of smoke, the gift box, ribbon, and fox all disappeared again.

Hoshino Hideyuki, now back in human form, put his hands on his hips and said:

"Haha, just kidding. Actually, the real gift is already yours. Check your pockets!"

"?"

Kikuri Iji's lips twitched, she reached into her pocket, and then...

He took out a small toothpick.

"??"

"Uh, this is... never mind, small ones are cute too..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Seventy-Two Transformations effect disappeared, and the toothpick suddenly grew larger and larger until it finally turned into a black and red spiked mace made of an unknown metal!

"Hey!"

"This is my Christmas present~"

Hoshino Hideyuki looked at the shocked Iji Chikiku and nodded in satisfaction:

"Since you want to fight alongside me, how can you not have a suitable weapon? So I asked a certain old cat demon for one, named Mountain-Splitting Pill. Give it a try, how does it feel?"

call!

call! !

"The feel? Well, it's absolutely fantastic!"

Kikuchi Ichichi was overjoyed to receive a Christmas gift from a fox for the first time, brandishing a spiked club!

Although it sounds a bit strange, no, it's downright weird... but it doesn't matter, she's just happy!

So what if the fox and its accomplice are celebrating the holiday together? It's a little strange!

The next second, the two were pressed together again.

After a long while, their lips parted again.

The blushing accomplice whispered:

"I really like this gift, but I also want that ribbon fox..."

"What a greedy woman!"

"Say what you will, but anyway, how about we stay here tonight? There happens to be a bed in my office..."

The fox raised an eyebrow: "Isn't that a single bed?"

"What does it matter? Anyway... they're going to be stacked together..."

soon.

The lights in the performance hall were turned off.

In the completely invisible underground corridor, the whispers between the accomplice, Miss Fox, and the fox echoed faintly.

Obviously.

They had a wonderful Christmas Eve.

Congratulations! It's a pity we can't celebrate.

Outside the exhibition hall, Sakai Yui took out her phone and checked the time.

"The person hasn't come out after more than an hour, looks like a great success!"

"It's really unbelievable, considering it's only been a few months, yet it's already reached this level!"

"I never knew Kikuri-chan was the type who, once she starts moving, is incredibly fast!"

The black-haired beauty rubbed her face with a grin, flipped the "open" sign on the exhibition hall door to "close," and disappeared into the swirling snow with light steps.

Chapter 147 The Fox Will Never Forget His Brothers

"So, that's why you 'read' my message but only replied 20 hours later?"

The next day was Christmas Day.

At Inuyama Tetsu's house, Inuyama Tetsu, with dark circles under his eyes, looked at the fox across the table with a complicated expression.

Oh no, I misspoke. It's not complicated at all.

It's just pure jealousy!

"You've forgotten your brothers now that you have a woman!"

"Damn it, I also want to be held in the arms of a cute young lady on Christmas Eve, instead of being dragged by my boss to deal with a group of 80-year-old ladies robbing a bank!"

The fox's ears twitched: "How old?"

"An 80-year-old woman! She robbed a bank with just a small knife! Her goal was to send herself to prison to live out her retirement!"

Inuyama Tetsu sighed and said:

“These kinds of things are happening more and more often lately. After all, think about it, if elderly people live alone without children, no one will even know if they die. But if they go to prison, they will have roommates to talk to, someone to take care of them, and they will even get medical treatment if they get sick…”

"As a result, the standards for recruiting prison guards have changed drastically in the past two years. They now require prisoners to be able to take care of the elderly, help wipe their bodies, and have a loud voice to prevent some hard-of-hearing prisoners from not being able to hear them... People who don't know the situation might think they're recruiting caregivers!"

puff.

Although it was a bit hellish, the fox couldn't help but laugh.

He reached out his paw and patted Inuyama Tetsuya on the shoulder, saying, "Well, well, this is a social problem, not something you can solve~"

"I think your main problem is that you don't have a girlfriend to keep you happy!"

"How about I act as your wingman for the next couple of days and take you out to look for it? If all else fails, I'll just hold my nose and conjure up a cat that can do backflips for you..."

Inuyama Tetsuya curled his lip: "Forget it. With my lifestyle, even if I had a girlfriend, I wouldn't have time to spend with her. We'd inevitably break up in the end. I'd rather let the monster girls in the game keep me company. No matter when I turn on the game console, they'll always be there..."

"Ahem, let's get down to business."

He straightened his back, put on a stern face, and took out a large bundle of documents, placing them on the table.

Hideyuki Hoshino noticed a photo immediately.

He was a man in his thirties, with brown bangs that slightly covered his eyes. He was quite handsome; he looked like he could be an actor…

Wait a minute, this guy looks like an actor!

Hoshino Hideyuki raised an eyebrow, recalling the TV programs he had watched after his transmigration, and whispered, "Kenichi Kitagawa?"

"That's right, it's him."

Inuyama Tetsu then took out a stack of documents and pointed to them with his finger, saying:

"Kenichi Kitagawa is a popular actor who has appeared in the films Godzilla vs. Barbie and Bloody High School. He is affiliated with Pinnis & Associates and is the only son of Yoshii Kitagawa, the founder of Pinnis & Associates."

"You know Pinnis, right? It's a famous talent agency that promotes artists and idol groups, mainly male artists and idols. They're a huge business. To put it bluntly, they've made two-thirds of Japan's male stars."

"That's why many young people who aspire to a career in the entertainment industry desperately try to get into this agency as trainees, and then..."

They then have a considerable chance of witnessing the dark side of the entertainment industry.

Inuyama Tetsu sighed, then took out several more... no, dozens of victim files and placed them next to Kitagawa Kenichi's photo.

"This guy is bisexual."

“He took advantage of his status as the only son of the agency owner to sexually assault 60 people in the ten years since his debut, 52 men and 8 women, most of whom were trainees from his own agency.”

"It's like lying about giving advertising resources and then pulling people into a corner, or sneaking into someone's bed at night, or threatening to blacklist someone if they don't comply and then stripping them naked on the spot... things like that, I've done quite a lot."

The fox flicked its tail.

Ok……

This perfectly matches his stereotype of the entertainment industry...

Sexual assault, tax evasion, bullying and assault, drug use—you can always get involved in something like that…

"But what's most frustrating is that his criminal activities were not a secret at all."

Inuyama Tetsuya pursed his lips, holding back for a long time before finally refraining from swearing, and continued:

"In fact, many of the things I just mentioned were reported by some tabloids five years ago."

"However, Pinnis's firm sued those newspapers and won the case thanks to their strong connections, obtaining huge amounts of compensation and almost bankrupting those newspapers."
