Traveling through the second dimension, the joy system encourages me to laugh heartily!

Consider this money compensation for Youyi.

[Hmph, just as I thought, an easy target.]

Seeing that this little brat still dared to be so arrogant and domineering in the face of irrefutable evidence, even going so far as to frame him and demand exorbitant prices, she was a typical example of someone who was spoiled to the point of being lawless and disregarding the law! The nameless anger that Chen Ming felt instantly turned into a cold flame of fury.

Amidst Shigure Yui's astonished, confused, and even slightly contemptuous gaze, as if asking, "Does he even dare to make a move?", Chen Ming suddenly stood up, his tall figure exuding a powerful sense of oppression, and strode up to her in one step.

"Damn it! What do you think you're doing?!" Shigure Yui finally realized the danger, and her angry curses just burst out.

Her response was a hand that reached out like an iron clamp and slammed into her!

"Ah!" Shigure Yui felt a sharp pain in her wrist, and was suddenly pulled away from her seat by an irresistible force! In a dizzying moment, her back slammed heavily against the cold wall of the private room!

"Thump!" A muffled sound.

With Chen Ming's current strength, subduing a pampered 16-year-old high school girl would be easier than catching a chick. He gripped Shigure Yui's slender wrist tightly with one hand, like a steel hoop, effortlessly pulling her arms up and pressing them firmly against the wall, raising them above her head!

This position completely deprived her of any means of resistance, like a butterfly pinned to a specimen board.

The sudden violent confinement instantly broke Shigure Yui's defenses!

The fierceness and arrogance on her face shattered like fragile porcelain, replaced by an undisguised panic and fear, to the point that she almost lost all control of her expression.

"Bastard! You coward! You scum! Let me go! Let me go right now! What do you want?"

She screamed, her two slender legs, encased in black stockings, began to thrash wildly and erratically, like a dying fish thrown ashore, kicking the sofa chair beside her with muffled thuds. She used every curse word she knew to mask the immense panic within her.

"Aren't you afraid I'll call the police?! The police will come and arrest you right away!" This was her last, blustering weapon.

"Then you should call the police."

Chen Ming's voice was as cold as the Siberian permafrost. He even loosened his grip slightly, but the shadow cast by his body still completely enveloped the girl.

He looked down at Shigure Yui's baby face, which was filled with fear, and spoke each word slowly and deliberately, like a judge reading a verdict:

"You've walked right into our trap. Let the police arrest you, you extortionist!"

"Wh...what do you mean?"

The combination of the cold words "police" and "extortionist" exploded in Shi Yu Youyi's mind like a thunderclap! Her mind went blank for a moment, and she even forgot to struggle. She just stared wide-eyed at Chen Ming in horror.

A cold smile curved Chen Ming's lips, like a devil's whisper, as he read aloud the information he had gathered after [Crimson] infiltrated the Japanese network:

"Shigure Yui, female, 16 years old. A first-year student in Class C at Kobe Municipal Sakura Girls' High School. Home address: No. XX, XX-chome, Yamamoto-dori, Chuo-ku, Kobe City. Father: Shigure Kentaro, works at Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Kobe Shipyard, employee number XXXXX. Mother: Shigure Yumiko, housewife. Best friend: Sato Misaki, lives in the apartment building next door; you go to school together every day..."

Every word was like a cold awl, piercing deep into Shigure Yui's heart!

As Chen Ming narrated, her face turned deathly pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably. This information was incredibly accurate, even including details about her father's job and her best friend's address!

This is no longer a simple investigation; this is... a complete "unboxing"!

In front of him, she felt as if she had been stripped naked, with no secrets left to her!

In modern society, the leakage of personal privacy is a very serious problem.

The loyal Crimson had already used the ubiquitous network and facial recognition system, like the most efficient intelligence agency, to instantly lock down all her information.

Looking at her swaying figure, Chen Ming delivered his final verdict:

"Over the past two and a half months, you have used the same 'framing Chinese men' method in Kobe Port Ward, Sannomiya Shopping Street, and near Motomachi Station to successfully extort money from three male victims, totaling 300,000 yen! This amount far exceeds the minimum threshold for fraud under Japanese criminal law and constitutes a clear case of extortion!"

He leaned down slightly, his icy breath almost hitting Shigure Yui's pale face:

"It means—you've broken the law, little girl. Pack your bags and go to the juvenile detention center (where juvenile offenders are detained in Japan) to properly repent for what you've done! The 'seniors' there will probably 'welcome' a tender newcomer like you."

Chapter 227: Taming the Female Demon

"Three hundred thousand yen, it's not a lot, but it'll at least get you six months in prison. I heard the juvenile detention center is full of delinquent girls who like to bully others. A pretty girl like you will definitely get 'special treatment' there!"

Upon hearing Chen Ming's verdict, Shi Yu Youyi's pretty and lovely face instantly lost all color, turning as pale as paper. Her once cunning and lively eyes were now filled with boundless fear and despair.

Fraud?

Six months in prison?

Juvenile Detective Agency?

No! Absolutely not!

She's only 16! At school, she's a top student, a popular and adored girl, and in the eyes of teachers and elders, she's a well-behaved and sensible child. Her life has just begun to unfold, filled with dreams of prestigious universities, glamorous careers, and a life of luxury.

If she were to be branded a “blackmailer” and locked up in that juvenile juvenile ward filled with violence and despair… her life would be completely ruined!

All dreams and all glories will vanish like bubbles, leaving only shame and darkness!

Thinking this, Shiyu Youyi's mental defenses completely collapsed. Her fair legs went weak, and if Chen Ming hadn't been holding her wrist, she would have almost collapsed to the ground.

"Mr. Chi Han..."

Shigure Yui stopped resisting and let Chen Ming hold her wrist down. She timidly whispered, "Please...please don't call the police...Yui was wrong...Yui shouldn't have talked nonsense just now...please let Yui go this time..."

"What did you call me?" Chen Ming's voice was calm and even, yet it carried an undeniable sense of pressure.

Shigure Yui trembled, then instantly realized what was happening. She forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, her voice trembling with a sickening sweetness: "O... Onii-chan! Onii-chan! Please! Yui begs you! Don't call the police! Yui really knows she was wrong!"

"Oh?" Chen Ming raised an eyebrow, a playful smile curving his lips. "So you've changed your address to 'Onii-chan' now? Tsk tsk, I still prefer your arrogant self from before."

Shigure Yui bit her lower lip until it turned white, and there seemed to be tears glistening in her bright, watery eyes.

[Those despicable low-level scoundrels!]

[They actually dared to threaten Yui!]

Despite cursing inwardly, Shigure Yui outwardly took the initiative to soften her tone and speak more gently:

"Onii-chan... I'm sorry, but Yui will apologize to you."

"Oh? Tell me, what did you do wrong?"

"Yui shouldn't have blackmailed Onii-chan..."

"Hmm, it seems you're quite aware of your criminal behavior." Chen Ming nodded, then changed the subject, "But if apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?"

"Just now, in front of so many people on the bustling shopping street, you shouted and accused me of being a pervert who secretly filmed up your skirt! Do you know what such an accusation means to an ordinary person?"

Chen Ming's voice suddenly rose, filled with an offended anger, "That's social death! It's losing your job! It's being scorned by your family and friends! It's your life being ruined! It's nuclear-level damage that can drive a person to their death! And now, you think you can just brush it all aside with a flimsy 'sorry'?"

"Then... then what do you want?"

"What do I want?" Chen Ming sneered, taking out his phone as if to dial a number. "Of course I want to call the police and let the law tell you what to do!"

"No! Don't call the police!" Shigure Yui screamed in terror like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, pleading desperately, "Onii-chan! Please! As long as you don't call the police, I... I'll do anything you want! Really! I'll do anything!"

She shouted incoherently, her gaze darting around in a panic. She didn't dare to meet Chen Ming's eyes, only daring to steal glances at the man who held her future in his hands.

To be fair, although this guy from China has an average appearance, he looks quite young and has great skin.

Furthermore, compared to Shigure Yui, who is only 155cm tall, Zayu-gege's height is quite tall—in fact, Chen Ming is not short. According to the National Health Commission's "Report on Nutrition and Chronic Diseases of Chinese Residents," the average height of men aged 18-44 in China is 169.7cm, which is the latest official and authoritative statistic. Generally, being below average is considered short, while being above average is considered tall!

Most importantly, this nobody was surrounded by so many beautiful women, and even had a professional translator and tour guide... He must be incredibly rich!

Just as Shigure Yui was secretly assessing Chen Ming's "value" with mixed feelings,

Chen Ming's gaze slowly swept over her.

From that youthful yet undeniably delicate face, the path glides over the exquisite collarbone revealed beneath the slightly open neckline from her struggle, down to the subtly undulating curves, across her flat stomach, and finally rests on her slender legs encased in black stockings, trembling slightly with fear.

"No...no! Absolutely not!"

Shigure Yui was terrified by Chen Ming's aggressive gaze. Like a frightened deer, she suddenly squeezed her legs together and desperately tried to shrink back, attempting to embed herself into the wall in a futile last stand.

"Oh?"

Chen Ming chuckled, then suddenly leaned down and pressed his face close to Shigure Yui's, his hot breath brushing against her earlobe and cheek. "Didn't you just say you'd do anything? You've already changed your mind?"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

As their eyes met, Shigure Yui's heart pounded wildly like a drum. The immense pressure and the masculine aura emanating from him almost suffocated her.

She had nowhere to hide, so she could only close her eyes tightly, her long eyelashes trembling violently, her cheeks instantly turning crimson, and she squeezed out broken syllables through clenched teeth: "Except...except for this...Onii-chan...please..."

"cut--"

A disdainful sneer rang out.

Immediately afterwards, the immense force restraining his wrist vanished.

Caught off guard, Shigure Yui swayed before managing to lean against the wall to steady herself.

Chen Ming had already straightened up and was looking down at her with undisguised disdain in his eyes.

"Don't flatter yourself, little brat. I have absolutely no interest in someone with your loli-like figure..." He paused deliberately, his gaze sweeping over her flat chest, "

Actually, he lied here. After all, with Qing Zijin, Hua Qianhui, Liu Yuanyuan, and Wang Manman present, he still needed to consider his image.

Otherwise, he would probably say what Japanese netizens love to say: "Hey, you don't want to be sentenced to six months in jail and then expelled from school, do you?"

Hearing Chen Ming's merciless words of disdain, Shigure Yui opened her eyes with mixed feelings.

The overwhelming sense of relief at surviving the ordeal left her almost exhausted. However, beneath this tide of relief lay a lingering resentment and shame at being slighted.

She secretly glanced up at the several radiant and beautiful women around Chen Ming, and a feeling of inferiority and bitterness she had never experienced before quietly began to grow within her.

"So, how can Onii-chan avoid calling the police?"

"You want me not to call the police? Heh, not impossible." Chen Ming grinned. "After all, I'm not some kind of demon..."

He deliberately dragged out the last syllable, slowly stating his condition: "I heard online that maid services are particularly popular in Japan, and many high school girls work part-time at maid cafes... You happen to be a current high school girl, so you perfectly fit the bill! How about you become my personal maid from now on!"

"What?" Shigure Yui raised her hand speechlessly and asked, "Sorry, Onii-chan, I didn't understand what you meant..."

Seeing her bewildered expression, Chen Ming's malicious intent became even more apparent. He stepped forward and explained:

“From now on, whenever I come to Kobe,” he held up his index finger and waved it in front of her, “you’ll have to wear the maid outfit I’ve specified and obediently come to serve me—bringing tea and water, massaging my shoulders and back, washing my feet and giving me massages…it’s that simple, isn’t it!”

"you……!"

A strong sense of shame and resistance surged through Shigure Yui's body like an electric current, making her delicate body go numb and her cheeks instantly turn bright red.

Her first instinct was to refuse—to wear such shameful clothes to serve this wretched little fish? Dream on!

However, the moment the thought of refusal arose, Chen Ming's voice, like a devil's whisper, rang out again, instantly extinguishing all her flames of resistance:

"Of course, I'm a very reasonable person and I never force anyone." He shrugged, his expression as innocent as an angel: "You have another option—call the police. Let the police arrange a six-month 're-education program behind bars' for you. Choose, Yui-chan? Become my personal maid, or go to a juvenile detention center and be roommates with the 'seniors'?"

"I'll give you five seconds to think it over. 1, 2, 3..."

"Huh?! You counted so fast! Wait a minute! Maid! I choose to be a maid!!"

Overwhelmed by immense fear, Shigure Yui practically screamed. Like a small animal driven to the brink, the girl had no choice but to live on in humiliation.

"very good!"

Seeing this, Chen Ming nodded in satisfaction, his face instantly displaying an approving expression of "a promising student," and he even deliberately imitated the exaggerated colonel's tone of a Japanese officer, speaking clearly and distinctly:

"There's an old Chinese saying: 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' You're a smart one, Yui-chan! As long as you fulfill your duties as a maid, I will never treat you unfairly. Do you understand?"

"...Hi! I understand."

Shigure Yui responded with a soft "yes".

"Well then, as your first lesson on the job, go to the restroom right now and change into this uniform! How can a proper maid not wear a maid outfit?"

As he spoke, Chen Ming magically pulled a neatly folded pink maid outfit, adorned with lace and bows, from his backpack! The exaggerated puffy skirt and cute ruffles exuded a dreamlike, anime-like feel—of course, the backpack was just a disguise; Chen Ming had actually taken it from his system space. As long as he had a backpack, it was perfectly normal for him to pull anything out of it.

"Hi……!"

Looking at this incredibly embarrassing outfit, Shigure Yui felt her vision go black.

She rubbed her wrist, which had been pinched red by Chen Ming, and glared at him fiercely.

Reluctantly, he took the pink maid outfit, his steps unsteady, and as if facing certain death, he pushed open the door of the private room and rushed towards the restroom at the end of the corridor.

Chen Ming sat down calmly, showing no concern whatsoever that she would escape.

Because Chen Ming already had a firm grasp on her school, home address, and criminal record, there was no point in her running away.

"Click".

Sure enough, not long after, the door to the private room was pushed open again by Shigure Yui, who had just gone to the restroom.

The girl walked in expressionlessly, her dark blue sailor uniform gone, replaced by a pink maid outfit. The fluffy skirt swayed slightly with her steps, and the white apron ties were tied in a bow at her back…

She was carrying a tray with several steaming cups of coffee on it.
