Hayakawa Aki turned around again and picked up a pile of things on the ground. They were the thank-you gifts she had bought on the way here.

Wu Yue saw the Kobe beef logo on it at first glance and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Oh my god... this is not cheap, it's so expensive."

"Anyway, just come in first."

"Ok."

Wu Yue took out the key and opened the door. The two came in, took off their shoes and walked into the house.

Wu Yue turned around and looked at Hayakawa Aki, and sure enough, he saw that her pretty face had turned red again, and she was looking around curiously.

Sensing the gaze coming from the front, Hayakawa Aki subconsciously looked over and immediately made eye contact with Wu Yue, noticing Wu Yue's half-smile on his face.

Suddenly, Hayakawa Aki's pretty face turned from slightly red to fully flushed. She was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and lowered her head.

"Then... that... Senior Wu Yue? Is there something wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"Hmm? Ah, no, no, I just thought your blushing face was so adorable that I accidentally stared at it for too long. Sorry, sorry."

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's shyness is detected, the system rewards 20 points. 】

The room Wu Yue rented was not expensive, but not cheap either. The main reason was that the environment was good. When he bought the room, the landlord stated in advance that smoking and drinking were prohibited, so the quality of the neighbors here is generally very high.

Wu Yue likes this kind of environment very much, it is quiet and there is not much going on.

The rental house is not big, with a living room with a kotatsu in the middle. The living room also serves as a bedroom, a bathroom, and a kitchen.

Wu Yue was not used to sleeping on the floor, that is, the tatami, so he bought a bed and put it in the corner. A lot of things happened today, and the bedding was not folded, but piled up in a mess.

"It seems that Senior Wu Yue is the kind of woman who is bold and unrestrained."

Hayakawa Aki took all these small details into consideration and sat down, thinking this in his mind.

Wu Yue tidied up the room awkwardly.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't have time to clean the room."

Hayakawa Aki waved his hands quickly.

"No, no, no, it's probably because I came too suddenly. I'm sorry to have disturbed your rest time, senior."

Wu Yue packed up, poured two cups of tea, and sat down. "Don't be too formal. I'm probably younger than you. You don't have to address me with honorifics. Just call me by my name, Wu Yue. You don't have to mention you in your sentences. Just say you. We are of the same generation, not a senior-junior relationship."

After hearing Wu Yue's answer, Hayakawa Aki became more certain of his thoughts.

"As expected, Miss Wu Yue is the type who needs someone to take care of her daily life. However, isn't that a bit too bold... Miss Wu Yue, don't you know that calling someone by their name is only allowed when the relationship between the two has reached a certain level? Or is it..."

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's happy mood is detected, the system rewards 5 points. 】

In this world, Tokyo, calling someone by their name is something that only happens when two people have a very close relationship, such as lovers or relatives, but Hayakawa Aki obviously misunderstood something.

After all, Wu Yue came here through time travel, so he didn’t care about these things at all. He didn’t think about them so much.

He was still confused and didn't understand why Hayakawa Aki was happy again.

——Gurgle~——

At this time, Wu Yue's stomach growled. This was the third time it had protested that day.

"It just so happens that guests are here, so let me, as the host, show off my cooking skills. Don't be fooled by the mess in my house, my cooking skills are quite good."

Wu Yue was about to stand up, but Hayakawa Qiu had already stood up. She looked flustered and stammered. "Qian... Wu... Wu Yue... cough cough!"

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's shyness is detected, the system rewards 20 points. 】

"Wu... Wu Yue, if you're hungry, I'll go cook for you. It just so happens that the main purpose of my visit today is to thank you for your help before."

"Eh? Forget it. Look at the injuries on your body."

Hayakawa Aki hurriedly shook his head. "It's okay, it's okay. These are just minor injuries and won't affect your physical activities."

Hayakawa Aki was afraid that Wu Yue would say something to stop her, so without waiting for Wu Yue to reply, she quickly walked into the kitchen with the things beside her.

In the rental house, there was no obstruction between the kitchen and the living room, so Wu Yue could clearly see the whole process of Hayakawa Aki cooking.

Hayakawa Aki gently adjusted her high ponytail with her hands, then carefully put it behind her head. She walked to the wall, reached out to take down the apron hanging there, and tied it up skillfully.

Afterwards, Hayakawa Aki took out bottles and cans and various fresh ingredients from the plastic bag. He carefully cleaned the knife, and with the flash of the sword, Hayakawa Aki began to show his amazing cutting skills. The knife fell on the chopping board with a crisp sound. His technique was so skillful that Wu Yue couldn't help but sigh.

"It really smells like **."

Wu Yue suddenly felt dazed and felt that he was very happy.

"Eh? Wu Yue, what did you say?"

Hayakawa Aki stopped what he was doing and asked in confusion.

"No, nothing. I just admire your amazing vegetable chopping skills."

"Thank you."

Hayakawa Aki started cooking again with full concentration.

Wu Yue was afraid of disturbing her, so he stopped visiting her. Out of boredom, he opened the system panel to check.

The system shows that his personal score has reached 72 points.

"You accumulated so much so quickly? That's great. It seems that it is necessary to spend more time with Hayakawa Aki and interact with him."

Wu Yue thought so, but suddenly realized something. "No, no... This is an opportunity..."

Wu Yue looked at Hayakawa Aki who was busy in the kitchen again, and suddenly a bold and evil idea came to his mind.

Kitchen, **, when these two words are put together, it is inevitable that something will happen.

Because Hayakawa Aki was concentrating on this moment, he did not notice that Wu Yue was no longer sitting there.

Then, she suddenly felt that someone was slowly approaching her body from behind. The person's breathing was very light, but she could clearly feel his presence.

He moved closer and closer until their bodies were pressed tightly together. Hayakawa Aki could feel his body temperature passing through her clothes, it was warm and real, and it made her heart beat faster involuntarily.

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's shyness is detected, the system rewards 20 points. 】

Hayakawa Aki looked up towards the living room tremblingly, and found that Wu Yue was no longer in his original position.

"Wu...Wu Yue?"

When Hayakawa Aki called out Wu Yue's name, his voice began to become soft.

Chapter 5: Tomorrow's Mission

Hayakawa Aki tentatively called out Wu Yue's name, and the voice began to become soft.

She didn't realize when she stopped cutting vegetables. Her hands became weak and powerless, her body began to go limp, and her legs were shaking and shaky, almost unable to stand.

Wu Yue was so close to Hayakawa Aki that the smell of male hormones coming from him rushed straight into Hayakawa Aki's brain.

Feeling Hayakawa Aki's physical reaction, Wu Yue couldn't help it.

"Let me help you. You are injured anyway, and it will be easier if I help you."

After saying that, Wu Yue stretched out a hand and gently grasped the little hand of Hayakawa Aki that wanted to retract into his arms.

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's panic was detected, the system rewards 20 points. 】

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's shyness is detected, the system rewards 20 points. 】

"Don't be afraid, Qiu."

Then, Wu Yue slowly guided Hayakawa Aki and held the kitchen knife on the chopping board.

Feeling the warmth from the body tightly pressed against him, Hayakawa Aki's heart beat faster and faster, his breathing became more rapid, and he couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts, his eyes began to roll around in his sockets.

Wu Yue's side was also going very smoothly. The system sounds of "ding ding ding" kept ringing in his mind, so he planned to go a little further.

The other hand slowly reached out and embraced Hayakawa Aki's slender waist, and his head rested on Hayakawa Aki's shoulder, breathing hot air rhythmically in her ears, stimulating her nerves.

But before it lasted a few seconds, Wu Yue suddenly frowned, feeling something was wrong.

This feeling...

Under Hayakawa Aki's public security uniform, her abdomen was actually wrapped in bandages, and judging from the feel, the area was quite large.

Including the abdomen, wrists, and neck, there are already three wounds. This is not just the minor injury that Hayakawa Akira mentioned, it is definitely a serious injury.

Wu Yue suddenly suspected that Hayakawa Aki had sneaked out of the hospital. In her current condition, if the doctor had any professional ethics, there was no way he would let her get out of bed.

So what does her current behavior mean? What if one of her actions is too drastic and causes the wound on Hayakawa Aki to be torn again?

Thinking of this, Wu Yue quickly let go of her hand, stopped her movements, and took a few steps back. Hayakawa Aki felt the person behind her leave, and her heart couldn't help but relax. She could finally take a good breath.

However, while he breathed a sigh of relief, Hayakawa Aki couldn't help feeling a sense of loss, with mixed feelings in his heart.

"Why... did you stop?"

She looked back at Wu Yue, looking pitiful.

Wu Yue did not answer her, but pushed her directly, pushed her onto the bed, pushed her down, made her lie down, covered her with a quilt, and did not even let her sit.

"Just lie here and don't move. I'll go cook for you."

Hayakawa Aki still wanted to refuse, but when she saw Wu Yue's serious expression, her lips moved and finally she nodded.

Wu Yue was relieved then and went back to the kitchen. He took the ingredients that Hayakawa Aki had cut and started cooking.

After a while.

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's mood of going to heaven is detected! The system rewards 50 points! ]

The system's voice suddenly rang in Wu Yue's mind without any warning. Not only was the voice louder than before, but the reward points were actually 50 points!

Wu Yue was stunned. He covered the pot and looked towards his bed in confusion, then found that Hayakawa Aki had covered himself with the quilt, his body curled up, trembling, and no one knew what he was doing.

After thinking about it, Wu Yue still didn't ask, so he just let her go.

Finally everything was ready. Wu Yue put all the food on the kotatsu and called Hayakawa Aki to get up and eat.

Hayakawa Aki did as she was told, but Wu Yue noticed that her face was as red as a ripe apple, her body was still emitting heat, and her expression was dizzy. He couldn't help but wonder what she was doing on her bed.

No one spoke during the meal. The two of them ate in silence. In the second half, Hayakawa Aki had recovered from her abnormality. Apart from her face becoming redder, there was nothing else unusual about her.

"Ah~ I'm full~ I'm full~ This is the first time I've eaten Kobe beef since I came to this place. Thank you, Hayakawa Aki."

Wu Yue held his full stomach with a happy expression.

Hayakawa Aki stared at Wu Yue, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.

"Um, Wu Yue, I, I came here personally this time, actually I have a very important thing I want to ask you."

"Hmm? What's going on?"

"My direct supervisor in the Public Security Anti-Demon Special Section actually assigned me an important mission yesterday. I have to go to a place tomorrow to eliminate the zombie demons hiding there. However, an unexpected accident happened today. It was the bat demon in the mall. I was injured. I am afraid that something unexpected will happen during this mission, so I would like to ask you to help me as a mercenary. Of course, I will definitely pay for the hiring fee. This is the deposit."

After saying this, Hayakawa Aki took out a bank card from his pocket and placed it on the kotatsu.

"There's a total of 20 yen here. I'm really sorry, but this is all I can give you as a deposit right now."

Wu Yue then remembered that he had told Hayakawa Aki that he was a mercenary, although he had just said it casually to show off.

"I'm telling you, if you're injured, just stay in the hospital. The bat demon isn't your fault. Your condition is a work-related injury. You can explain it to Makima, and she'll definitely let you rest."

Hayakawa Aki was surprised. "Do you know Miss Machima?"

Wu Yue laughed. "I also read the newspaper occasionally."

Wu Yue didn't let the secret slip, because the Public Security Special Anti-Demon Class was an official organization and was open to the public. When he read the newspaper, he did see Makima's name and the photo in the profile picture.

Hayakawa Aki lowered his head slightly, his face gloomy. "I... I admire Miss Makima very much. She is the person I respect the most. I don't want to disappoint her. You are very powerful and you are a mercenary, so I want to..."

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and gradually could not be heard. Wu Yue looked at Hayakawa Aki and sighed.

"Okay, I promise you, just tell me the address."

Hayakawa Qiu's eyes lit up.

"Thank you! Wu Yue!"

[Ding~ Hayakawa Aki's gratitude is detected, the system rewards 5 points. 】

The matter was decided, and the two agreed that Hayakawa Aki would come to find Wu Yue tomorrow afternoon, and together they would go to the place where the zombie demon was hiding and get rid of it.
