Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

"Ooohhhhh!"

"No! I really can't do this! Body parts! Dismemberment case!"

Overly frightened, Hatano Aoi fell to the ground.

"Xiao Kui, are you okay? This is just a mannequin, take a closer look."

Ginjo Sousuke picked up a mutilated prosthetic hand and handed it to her.

“Ahhhhhh…Ahhhhhhh…”

"I've had enough...I don't care anymore..."

Hatano Aoi closed her eyes, completely lost the ability to think, and screamed uncontrollably.

Yincheng couldn't do anything with her, he could only hold her tightly in his arms and wait for her to calm down.

Her body was shaking with fear, but because of this, that extremely soft part had a stronger sense of existence.

In the darkness, Hatano Aoi snuggled up to Ginjo's chest desperately, as if only there could she find the sense of security that she needed most.

"Wow...Huh? Why can't I stand up?"

After an unknown amount of time, Hatano Aoi, who was sitting on the ground, finally tried to get up, but her legs seemed to be out of her control.

"Are your legs so weak that you can't use any strength?"

Ginjo took her hand and gently pulled her up from the ground.

"It seems that Xiaokui can't hold on any longer. In this case, we have to leave the haunted house as soon as possible. Can I help you walk from now on?"

"That's not the case. My legs are just numb from sitting for too long. I'm not scared of prosthetic arms and legs at all. On the contrary, I find them funny. Guwahahaha!"

"Don't try to be so stubborn anymore. Your fear of ghosts has already been exposed!"

Maybe it was because Hatano Aoi was shaking too much that Ginjō saw through her completely.

"I thought you suggested coming here because you like horror stuff like this, but it turns out to be the exact opposite."

Ginjo complained with a smile as he took her hand and took the lead to lead her towards the exit.

Hatano Aoi felt that she was really sorry to Ginjō, but she was too scared and could only ask him for everything.

"By the way, is this the effect Xiaokui wanted? How is it? Does your heartbeat speed up?"

Ginjo Sousuke couldn't help but turn his head and ask her.

"Ah! There's another army of zombies over there!"

"Wow! There's a bloody dummy over here!"

The result was that Hatano Aoi was frightened by the continuous flow of prop teams and completely ignored Ginjō's questions.

Ginjo had no choice but to drag her forward in the maze-like haunted house.

Fortunately, the fatal fear will eventually come to an end, and light finally appeared in front of the passage.

“Hurry up! Let me get out of here, ahhhhhh!”

Hatano Aoi screamed in fear, looking breathless and exhausted.

At this moment, a noisy sound came from behind them.

"I've had enough of this place! I want to get out of here!"

"Hey, wait! Don't run! Don't leave me behind!"

The owners of the voices should be a student couple. Perhaps because they were too frightened, they rushed straight towards the exit - where Ginjō and Hatano Aoi were.

"Hey, no way, how come we just happened to run into other people!"

Hatano Aoi didn't have time to tidy up her clothes along the way, and now her whole body is a mess.

Although it was dark around, if they were caught red-handed, there was a high possibility that they would be misunderstood as to what they were doing in there.

At the critical moment, Ginjo hugged Hatano Aoi tightly and hid her.

"Eh? Senior!"

"Shh, don't move!"

Ginjo Sousuke took Hatano Aoi with him to the wall and sandwiched her, who was in dishevel, between himself and the wall.

"This place is too exaggerated! It's too scary! I shouldn't have come here if I had known!"

"I told you to wait for me! I'm just as scared as you are!"

Soon after, the sounds of lovers arguing and hurried footsteps passed by them and gradually faded away.

"Huh...are you okay...Xiao Kui?"

After confirming that there was no one around, Ginjo Sousuke asked worriedly.

"Wow... Ginjo-senpai... our current situation is even worse..."

Hatano Aoi's body was pressed against the wall by Ginjō, unable to move. She spoke in a soft voice that almost disappeared into the air...

Chapter 562: Unexpected Beauty Pageant Champion

The two of them lay on top of each other and pressed against the wall to avoid the sight of other students.

Hatano Aoi, who has a petite loli-like figure, is perfectly hidden by Ginjo Sosuke's tall figure. If you look at her from behind, it might be difficult to notice that there is a girl hiding there.

Ginjo supported himself on the wall with one hand and subconsciously placed the other hand on her waist.

Her slender waist seemed like it would break if squeezed hard, and her fair and smooth skin was as soft and delicate as the surface of porcelain.

Although Ginjo's big hands were touching her skin, Hatano Aoi didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort. Instead, she raised her head and looked at him with joy in her eyes, with the corners of her mouth inadvertently curled up in a cute arc.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't want them to see Xiaokui like this, so I got anxious..."

After all, it was just the first day they met, and even though he knew that she had some admiration for him, Ginjo still maintained the necessary gentlemanly demeanor.

"It's okay. I know Senior Ginjo didn't mean it."

"And I feel safe when you protect me like a reliable older brother."

"Aoi has always dreamed of having a brother as gentle and handsome as Ginjo-senpai~"

After saying this, Hatano Aoi buried her face in Ginjo's arms a little embarrassedly.

Even through the thin shirt, Ginjo could feel the heat radiating from her flushed cheeks.

"I also want to have a sister as cute as Xiaokui, but unfortunately I never have the chance."

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's pack our clothes and leave here."

Ginjo slowly withdrew his body, then bent down to help her restore her miniskirt, which had been messed up by the escape, to its original shape.

"Yeah, that's true."

Hatano Aoi also took this opportunity to adjust her pink shirt.

When the two of them left the haunted house, the faint blush on her face did not fade away.

With Yincheng's rescue along the way, they finally managed to escape. Then the two of them found an empty classroom to rest and discuss the next itinerary.

"Senior, Senior! Should we go take a look at the stage plan at the end?"

"Stage planning?"

Hatano Aoi, who had just been exhausted by fear, quickly became full of energy again after resting for a while.

"Yes, there are all kinds of performances at the gymnasium all day long, such as stage plays and fashion show planning by the acting club."

"By the way, it seems like there's a school beauty pageant going on right now!"

School beauty pageant?

To be honest, Ginjo Sousuke wasn't really interested.

In Takenoko University, which has an overwhelming number of female students, the competition for the school beauty is a foregone conclusion because of the presence of Lisa Shiraishi.

Today, Lisa Shiraishi has to take care of her club's booth and will definitely not come to participate in the selection.

Without the participation of the king, this kind of activity would lose its meaning.

But I don’t have any other plans now, and Hatano Aoi seems very interested, so I might as well go with her to take a look.

In terms of time, after watching the school beauty pageant, it’s almost time to go back to work.

"I see. Let's go take a look."

"Great! Xiaokui is really looking forward to the school beauty pageant!"

So they decided to go to the gymnasium together at the end of the school anniversary parade.

"The winner of this year's school beauty pageant is --- Yua Kurizono ---!"

The moment the two entered the gymnasium, they heard the girl serving as the emcee loudly announce.

I saw Li Yuan, wearing a cute crown on her head, standing on the stage with a confused look on her face.

"Hmm? Isn't that Li Yuan? Why is she here?"

"Uoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Amid the roar of the audience, Ginjo couldn't help but mutter.

"Eh? Kurihara-senpai is here too?"

Hatano Aoi asked, just as confused as Ginjō.

"Why would Li Yuan participate in the school beauty pageant? She doesn't look like someone who is interested in such activities."

And what Ginjo didn't expect was that she actually won the championship accidentally.

"Kurizono-san! Congratulations!"

"Please look over here!"

"Wave! Please wave with me!"

As expected, the popularity of the campus beauty pageant champion was truly incredible. The audience around her, both male and female, all vied to cheer for her.

"Kurihara-senpai was probably pushed onto the stage by her friends. Similar things have happened before."
