Tokyo, but I'm a deceitful scumbag.

The combination of these two factors transformed her into a fully-equipped Thanos who had gathered all six Infinity Stones in just a few hours. Even the mighty Dao could obliterate her, let alone the weak, pitiful, and helpless captain of the Fox Kingdom. Naturally, she was utterly crushed.

"Ugh……"

Seeing that Hoshino Hideyuki was about to sigh and recite poetry again, Ichikiku quickly put her hands together and kowtowed repeatedly by the bedside, saying, "Ah, stop reciting! What do you want for dinner? I'll go prepare it for you right away!"

"Haha, that's exactly what I've been waiting for! Listen carefully!"

Hoshino Hideyuki's cheeks puffed up instantly. He straightened up and said in a strong voice, "I want to eat steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, and roast duck..."

Ijichi Kikuri: ?

"Haha, just kidding. Just a simple Neapolitan pizza, a Roman onion pizza, a lasagna, and two Milanese steaks will do. Just order from that Italian restaurant we had last month. Thanks!"

This is anything but simple!

Ichikiku thought to herself, but still obediently got up and made the call.

At that moment, Hoshino Hideyuki also turned around and called Inuyama Tetsuya.

"Moshi moshi, Zhe, this is Fox~"

Across from him, Inuyama Tetsuya remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "I'm a little curious, what were you in such a hurry about this afternoon?"

"It's good to be curious, but for the sake of your physical and mental health, you should refrain from being curious for now."

"Hey, hey, hey, you were definitely with a woman! You really do forget about your brothers when you have a woman!"

"No way, I often forget about my brothers even when I don't have a woman!"

"?"

After arguing for a while, Inuyama Tetsu was the first to surrender and then they started talking about serious matters.

"What about Kitagawa's side..."

He revealed some inside information to Hideyuki Hoshino.

In short, Kenichi Kitagawa is guilty of multiple kidnapping and death cases and is finished. He will most likely be sentenced to death (of course, when exactly he will be executed is another damning question).

Not only him, but his father and the entire Pines agency will also be investigated. This matter is not yet confirmed, but those involved will definitely not escape.

With these people down, newspapers and news stations that have been holding back for so long will surely step up their efforts, and it is expected that all of Kitagawa's sexual assault cases will be exposed within the next month.

Well, overall, things have come to a happy ending.

After saying that, Inuyama Tetsuya added, "Speaking of which, you didn't manage to scam any money this time, so why didn't you complain at all? That's not like you..."

"Ha, you underestimate me?"

Hoshino Hideyuki clicked his tongue twice, then said, "Who am I? The famous Smiling Fox! Whenever I make a move, wealth will flow in! You haven't seen it yet, it's just that the time hasn't come yet."

"Give me a safe bank account, and let things play out for a while, and you'll understand what I mean."

What Hoshino Hideyuki was implying was none other than the gold and silver he and Amamiya Yukiho had found in the underground shrine. —Because it was inconvenient to carry, he had entrusted it to the young lady.

As long as he sends the account information to Yukiho Amamiya, he can get the money in less than three days. If it's half and half, it will be at least 30 million.

At most... well, given the young lady's nature of trying every possible means to feed the fox, even through roundabout methods and breaking locks, it could be as much as a hundred million.

Hearing Hoshino Hideyuki's confidence, Inuyama Tetsuya no longer doubted him and immediately provided an account.

The two then chatted for a few more minutes about work and games before hanging up.

Hoshino Hideyuki yawned and forwarded the account to Amamiya Yukiho. In less than a second, he saw Amamiya Yukiho reply with a fox emoji making an OK sign.

Hmm, she looks kind of cute.

Could it be that the young lady drew it herself? It's quite possible...

Just as Hoshino Hideyuki was about to reply, he suddenly noticed that Tendo Asuka also had unread messages.

huh?

The genius and beautiful female Onmyoji wants to see us fox?

Upon clicking, I discovered that Asuka Tendo wanted to meet him at our usual spot the next evening, as she had something important to discuss with him.

Hideyuki Hoshino agreed without hesitation.

Old friends, we should see each other more often, even if it's not a big deal.

Who are you chatting with?

At that moment, Iji Chikiri, who had picked up her meal, returned to the house and looked at Hoshino Hideyuki with a smile on his face, asking him a question.

Hideyuki Hoshino waved his hand: "It's nothing, I was just watching videos..."

"Hmm, looks like he's chatting with a girl..."

"?"

Kikuri-chan, have you mutated? Have you contracted Amamiya Yukiho Syndrome?

No way! One person who can detect lies is enough. If there are too many, the characters will be repetitive!

"Hum~"

Kikuri Ijichi smiled and leaned closer, saying, "Want to know how I guessed it?"

Hideyuki Hoshino nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"The answer is that I never guessed it. I just blurted it out to trick you."

The red-haired beauty tossed her hair back with her hand, her eyes crinkling into a smile: "Having been with you for so long, I've improved quite a bit too~"

cut.

It just took advantage of my trust in my partner; it doesn't count!

Hoshino Hideyuki pursed his lips, then turned his attention to the food that Iji Chikiku had brought.

Next, the human and the fox had a great time eating.

The next day, night.

On the deserted school playground, Asuka Tendo stood with her arms crossed, her brows twitching.

Half an hour had passed since she and the fox agreed on a time.

However, the fox was still nowhere to be found.

Even if she asks for the reason on her phone, she will only reply with platitudes like "right away" or "soon".

"hateful……"

"I can't believe I, as a teacher, have had to wait in the cold wind for so long..."

"Once he arrives, we must punish him severely! Upholding the dignity of teachers is of utmost urgency!"

The thought of punishing the fox suddenly excited the girl, and she felt that the night wind was no longer so cold.

This time, the fox was late on her own initiative, so she's in the right! With that in mind, she should be able to make the fox bow her head in submission, right?

hum!

When the time comes, this genius will have to make good use of him!

Make him massage your legs, wash your socks, use you as a chair, use you as a scarf, and humiliate you severely!

Just as Asuka was lost in her fantasies, she suddenly noticed a figure at the entrance to the playground.

The fox is here!

Upon closer inspection, it appears to be in human form, but it's not riding a tricycle.

Haha, now it's my turn to shine!

Asuka Tendo smirked, tossing her twin tails, and hopped over to the fox, then...

Then I realized something was wrong.

Why is the fox wearing a kimono today?

He has a knife in his hand? What... what is he going to do?!

Across from him, Hoshino Hideyuki also saw Tendo Asuka. He sighed softly, then knelt down on the spot, took the sword in his hand, gestured to his abdomen, and said with tears streaming down his face:

"Lord Tendou, I am so sorry! I have committed an unforgivable crime of being late! Please allow me to commit seppuku as an atonement!"

Tendo Asuka:?

Chapter 185 Foxes and Young Girls Should Trick Each Other

Of course, Hideyuki Hoshino was not late on purpose.

In fact, he left home an hour early.

However, halfway through, he thought that since he was already out, he might as well deliver the spider lily to Ryoko Senjougahara and ask her some details about burning himself, such as the heat and whether or not to add cumin. So he turned around and went to the place where the bell was buried.

Who would have thought that such a turn would lead to trouble?

The samurai he sent to deliver a message to Ryoko Senjougahara did not return for a long time.

Although he was in a hurry, Hoshino Hideyuki couldn't think of a good solution for the time being. He couldn't just throw the bell on the ground and walk away, could he?

Finally, a full forty minutes passed before he saw the bell spit out the strongman and the reply.

In the letter, Ryoko Senjougahara didn't say much, only apologizing for keeping him waiting and offering some tips on training one's spirit.

Hoshino Hideyuki vaguely suspected that something had happened after Senjougahara Ryoko obtained the Asahi-Yoshihiganbana, which was why so much time had been wasted, but he had no evidence and no time to verify it.

Because by this time, the agreed time for Tendo Asuka had long passed.

As a fox with a conscience, Hoshino Hideyuki certainly couldn't keep the girl waiting, so he immediately hurried back to the school.

But as a fox with little conscience, after anticipating that the girl might get angry and then tease him, he naturally wouldn't obediently apologize and let her tease him.

That's why he came to the girl with the knife in his hand.

Asuka Tendo was stunned for a long time before stammering, "Seppuku? What do you mean by that?"

Hoshino Hideyuki said in a tone reminiscent of a Showa-era tough guy:

"Literally, Lord Tendo, I know my mistake is irreversible, and I can only humbly request permission to use this last resort to wash away my shame..."

"There's no need to commit seppuku!"
