I'm raising a fox fairy wife in Tokyo

"To Come."

time.

It started to become blurry.

Kaguya Shinomiya felt as if everything in front of her was fast-forwarding, like a movie being sped up several times.

Until the sudden freeze-frame.

When Yagijiro left the basement again, Sato Ryoko, who had been beaten beyond recognition, seemed to have her arms, which had become even thinner due to prolonged hunger, managed to emerge from the ropes binding her.

"Shh..."

The other person made a weak sound and struggled to crawl to him.

Kaguya Shinomiya saw it.

Ryoko Sato slowly began to untie herself from the ropes.

Her hands were covered in blood, most of her once beautiful hair had fallen out, and her face was already unsightly due to bruises and swelling.

Even so, the woman's voice remained gentle.

"Go."

She finally untied Kaguya Shinomiya's ropes and, with a forced smile, gave the girl a proper one.

"To Come."

Chapter Eleven: This is no ordinary otaku!

calm down!

Stay calm!!

Finally, Kaguya Shinomiya, who was able to stand up and move her limbs, told herself this in her heart.

This is probably a recreation of the scene at that time, only... it's quite realistic.

Push open the iron gate.

Before me were staircases floating in white light, rising ever upwards.

When Kaguya Shinomiya turned back, the iron gate had already closed silently. This bizarre turn of events made it clear that what she was seeing was not reality.

However, when Kaguya Shinomiya pinched her own face, she found that it actually hurt.

So what is going on?

For a moment, I actually started to miss Takakawa Ryu.

If the boy were here, there would be some explanation, right?

At that moment, Kaguya Shinomiya realized to some extent that the "unknown" was the source of fear.

Up the steps.

At the end, you can vaguely see the existence of a door.

[Am I trying to escape?]

Kaguya Shinomiya thought to herself.

Soon, they climbed the steps and then quietly pushed open the door in front of them.

Before me was a familiar long corridor.

It wasn't as dark, though there were stains and piles of garbage everywhere, but the dim sunlight was streaming in through one of the windows.

window!

Kaguya Shinomiya quickly went to check and found that the window was already closed and could not be opened from that side.

Then the only way out is to escape through the front door.

That is, walking through the corridor, past the stairs leading to the second floor, and through the living room, kitchen, and toilet...

Will that guy find out?

Where is Yagijiro right now?

Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly remembered what Takagawa Takayuki had said before.

[A NEET in his fifties or sixties who still lives off his parents, doesn't even know how to use a computer, and doesn't own a cell phone...]

So, every day is nothing more than getting out of bed, going to the living room to watch TV to pass the time...

That is.

Be careful on the stairs and in the living room.

The sound of a television program could indeed be heard in the distance.

Kaguya Shinomiya carefully continued forward; the short corridor seemed to the girl as a distance of a hundred years.

When going up the stairs.

I didn't dare turn my head to look at the situation over there, for fear of seeing Yagijiro's cold face in the stairwell.

When passing through the living room.

The girl noticed out of the corner of her eye that the place was empty, but there was an indescribable stench.

Disgusting.

Well.

Covering her mouth and nose, Kaguya Shinomiya quickly crossed the living room, and then the entrance hall.

The heartbeat is speeding up.

Kaguya Nishimiya felt a feeling she had never experienced before.

Until.

As she reached the gate, it was suddenly opened, and the girl saw Yagijiro standing outside in the sunlight...

……

Darkness enveloped everything once again.

When Kaguya Shinomiya woke up again, she found herself back in the basement.

The dim yellow light remained.

The floor and walls had become quite dirty, with many more bloodstains.

"Failed?"

A familiar voice came from the side; it was Ryoko Sato's voice.

"It's okay, next time... next time try harder, you'll definitely escape, we... we'll protect you."

"I'm telling you, there's something wrong with your plan."

Beside the slender, frail woman, Kaguya Shinomiya saw another figure.

She's a hot female college student with obviously dyed silver hair, tanned skin from the beach, and heavy makeup.

Peach blossom.

The second victim was someone Kaguya Shinomiya also recognized.

"Let's do this, and then... next time... um..."

Momoya and Sato Ryoko were whispering to each other, talking quietly.

"That solves the problem!"

"it is good……"

"Then what do I do?"

"Ah... Kaguya, right? Kaguya, just play it by ear."

Momoya blinked.

It's hard to imagine why she could make such a relaxed expression under such circumstances.

"That guy is just a reclusive guy living alone, and he's malnourished. If it weren't for the sneak attack, he wouldn't have... Ah, don't worry, I'm in the sports club in college, don't worry."

Say so.

The basement fell silent until the iron door opened again, and Yagijiro staggered in once more.

He was excited and pounced on Ryoko Sato.

Immersed.

It emitted another hungry sucking sound.

And at this time.

Momoya, who was standing nearby, suddenly lunged at Yagijiro. The ropes binding her hands and feet had somehow been untied—probably by Sato Ryoko, just like before.

Kaguya Shinomiya also discovered that she was able to move freely again.

"Run, Kaguya!"

Momoya and Sato Ryoko together entangled Yagi Jiro.

"This guy is the only one in the house. If we trap him, you won't have to be afraid anymore!"

Urged on by the girls from the Gal Girls' College, Kaguya Shinomiya takes action once again.

Run, keep running...

Pushing open the iron gate, crossing the steps, I arrived at the familiar corridor and continued running towards the entrance hall at the far end.

Faster, faster!

Kaguya Shinomiya thought to herself.

Subsequently.

She suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Ah...yes...

[Jiro Yagi is a short, thin man who was bullied at school as a child and subsequently stayed at home for long periods, becoming malnourished and sedentary.]

Even if men are naturally stronger than women, it's impossible for him to imprison so many normal adult women like this.

[Especially since this guy doesn't own a car, how did he manage to sneak people into his house so quietly?]

Countless pieces of information flashed through the girl's mind.

In that brief moment, Kaguya Shinomiya thought of information she had overlooked, but which now seemed incredibly important.

[From the time he imprisoned his first victim, Ryoko Sato, it wasn't until more than two months later that Jiro Yagi came to the attention of the police. During this period, he imprisoned a total of five victims.]

How did he do that?

Why did it take the police so long to discover it?

It can't be that this guy is actually a seemingly crazy genius who's actually very smart...

"Huff, huff, huff, huff!!"

The muffled breathing coming from behind immediately confirmed something for Kaguya Shinomiya.

in particular.

That sudden, ever-approaching roar sounded like the frenzied howl of a wild beast.

Suddenly, a strong force came from behind.

That's a power that no normal human could possess, Kaguya Shinomiya was certain of.

It felt like being hit by a truck and thrown into the air.

The girl struggled to turn her head, and then finally saw the man's distorted face.

On the sallow, ugly face, damp with sticky sweat, there were two pairs of eyes and two mouths.

ha?
