The Azure Sea is not a warrior with ripped clothes.

She swallowed back the words "friendship first, competition second" in an instant. For the sake of future snacks, late-night meals, and drinks, Hibiki Sakura suddenly felt that taking some risks was necessary!

"Ikuyo!"

"Mmm, ganbatte!"

After dismissing the aggressive-looking Hibiki, Masaki, sipping his protein supplement, looked into the void and suddenly asked, "That world, do you want to go?"

"Absolutely not! I have a girlfriend and a peaceful life; I don't want to fight with single people!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Miyazawa Yu didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, as if expending any more energy on this matter would be superfluous.

"That's true, and fitness has always been what I like."

Chapter 207 Sakurako Busujima: The Hunt Begins!

"Hibiki is indeed the ultimate winner in the women's group..."

"How about that? Super powerful, right!"

With her clothes half-ripped, Hibiki Sakura held up her phone, which was drooling over the money she had received. A full 100,000 yen in bonus! How much delicious food could she buy with that!

You could eat at the all-you-can-eat beef buffet more than ten times! More than ten times!

"Wow, that's impressive! Although I still prefer white hair..."

As they stepped out of SILVERMANGYM together, Yu Miyazawa's first praise was quite fair, but towards the end, his confidence waned and his voice dropped sharply. He even scratched his cheek slightly in embarrassment.

There's no way around it; the white-haired man with his icy demeanor and slightly ruthless Russian air is just too tempting.

"Hmm? Is Yu-nii a white-haired guy enthusiast?"

Her expression first showed displeasure, then quickly turned into a teasing, mischievous grin. Sakura Hibiki leaned over and kept poking the former's kidneys with her elbow, trying to get to the bottom of things.

To be honest, there aren't many people in Japan who are into white-haired girls. Someone like Yu is probably a rare breed!

"Well... of course, dark skin, blonde hair, and twin tails are also very nice, yes! That's it!"

"Well, whatever~"

Spreading her hands in acceptance of the insincere flattery, Sakura Hibiki, with her half-moon eyes, took Uehara Ayaka's arm and asked, "We're planning to go out for a nice meal to celebrate. Yu-nii, do you want to come? We've agreed beforehand that you'll have to pay for your share of the prize money!"

"Sorry, I actually have something to do today. I'll treat you next time."

"No problem! It's settled then! Okay! Here I come, all-you-can-eat beef!"

"Bon Voyage……"

Finally, the noisy hot girl was gone. Miyazawa Yu stood there watching Hibiki drag Ayaka away. The next second, he turned into a blur and disappeared from the spot.

"Om-!"

"Holy crap! What just flew out?!"

The wind and sand blew up from the roadside, and the innocent office workers who were leaving get off work didn't have time to look up and react. They could only catch a fleeting glimpse of a dark shadow in the corner of their eye as it disappeared from sight at an extremely fast speed.

Miyazawa Yu had a legitimate reason for cosplaying as a train: the supermarket sale was ending at 7:30! And the time was already 6:53!

It's well known that labor costs in Japan are notoriously slow; sometimes you can have to wait a whole week to get an air conditioner repaired.

The installation time for a home theater system is within three days from the date of purchase, so as long as he is fast enough!

"hiss--!"

With a determined look in his eyes, he slid to a stop in front of the department store, startling a child eating a lollipop nearby so much that his eyes widened like saucers.

Without a moment's hesitation, he rushed up to the fourth floor electronics section, hoisted his home theater system onto his shoulder, and then, amidst the bewildered gaze of the salesperson, quickly descended to stop in front of the cashier.

"Bill, please!"

"Ugh?"

This was the first time I'd ever seen a customer carry their own appliances to the checkout; the cashier was completely dumbfounded.

However, under Miyazawa Yu's predatory gaze, she had no choice but to tearfully do her job, picking up the barcode scanner to scan the codes for the home theater system and issue a receipt.

"Well, um... the time is 7:29, so I'll offer you a discounted price of 980,000 including tax. How do I pay?"

"Great, I made it in time..."

She instantly relaxed. If it weren't for the crowds on the road, and the fact that driving a Jiefang truck would make her look like a fugitive, Miyazawa Yu would have already used her special ability to get on the road.

Fortunately, his physical condition was excellent, and he only took less than 30 minutes to go up and down two or three streets and four floors. He truly lived up to his reputation!

"Swipe your card, hello..."

After catching his breath, he slammed the bonus that had just arrived onto the table without hesitation, vividly demonstrating what impulsive spending means.

"Yes, the bill is fine. Here is your receipt."

Recovering from the initial panic, the cashier noticed the man acting strangely was small and thin. She swallowed her tears, took out a registration form, and asked, "Would you like our installation service? It's free."

"Yes, it should be able to be installed within three days starting today, right?"

"Sir, besides that, do you have any other requirements regarding the timing of your visit over the next two days?"

"Um……"

After skillfully signing her name, address, and contact information on the delivery slip, Miyazawa Yu tilted her head, thought for a few seconds, and then grasped the cashier's hand, earnestly requesting, "When they come to install it, please, please don't knock on the door!"

"Ugh?"

What kind of request is this where your family forbids you from ordering takeout, but you secretly order late-night snacks while being afraid of being caught?

The cashier didn't understand, but respected the request, so she wrote a separate request to include the final installation information on the delivery slip.

"That solves the problem. Please try to stay in touch for the next couple of days, and it would be best if someone could be at home to look after the place!"

"I see……"

Finally, I've found the item I've wanted to buy ever since I first arrived at Grand Blue.

Although the price was that the prize money he had just received was almost entirely spent in an instant, Yu Miyazawa still felt it was worth it.

Moreover, unlike a beef buffet, a home theater system is not something you can finish once you've eaten it all. It's a big-ticket item that can be used for seven or eight years. Buying it early and enjoying it early is never a bad deal!

"Um, is there anything else you need?"

"That's all. If possible, please come for the installation as soon as possible. I'm ready to wait at home anytime."

"Yes, we'll try our best to expedite it!"

After bowing and seeing the strange customer off, the cashier finally spotted the familiar salesman rushing over. His first words were, "Hey customer! Did you pay?"

"I bought it, and paid directly without any hesitation!"

"Very good……"

The evil creature, clutching its chest and throbbing wildly, was panting heavily. The saleswoman looked as if she had been thoroughly ravaged, all due to a lack of exercise!

To be honest, she had almost forgotten when she last went for a run. These two lumps on her chest were really pulling and hurting!

"I thought they were robbers. They grabbed the equipment, turned around and ran without a word, like they were planning to rob a specific spot!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I've already filled in your name as the salesperson, so you'll still get the sales commission!"

"Little Lily! I really love you the most!"

"that……"

Raising her hand to interrupt the heartwarming scene of the shop assistants helping each other out to boost sales, Sakurako Busujima walked up to the two women with a shopping bag on her shoulder and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, what did that customer just buy? It seems to be quite popular."

"It's a home theater system! This is the latest affordable model. Although it's the basic version, the performance and warranty are excellent!"

Completely unsuspecting of the pretty, fashionable girl, the saleswoman thought she could close another deal and immediately transformed into a ruthless sales machine, striving for her bonus.

However, in Sakurako Busujima's ears, all the sounds were filtered out, leaving only the keywords: "affordable luxury", "family enjoyment", and "only 980,000 yen"!

"Oh, is that so?"

Staring intently in the direction Miyazawa Yu had left, she raised her right hand to cover the corner of her mouth, but her upturned eyebrows and greedy eyes still revealed a cunning and calculating expression.

Yu is usually unassuming and wears ordinary clothes without any hidden designer brands. Is he actually so generous?

Judging from the cashier's description, this guy doesn't seem to care about the money at all!

A truly cunning woman can discern the value of her prey from the details of their spending, suggesting that You is the type who values ​​material comforts.

Well, this way, although we might lose some face, our quality of life will definitely skyrocket!

"I was thinking of just pretending last night was drunken nonsense..."

Flipping her hair, a hunting urge ignited in Busujima Sakurako's eyes due to the incorrect information. "But since they're rich, it's not like I can't rob them..."

"Miss, what are you saying?"

"It's nothing, just something I felt compelled to say."

……

On the other side, Miyazawa Yu, who was on her way home, was suddenly drawn to a bookstore next to the tram stop.

Speaking of which, since arriving in Izu, apart from Iori tearing up one of my older sister books, it seems that quite a few of my treasured books have been borrowed by those unscrupulous seniors.

Furthermore, it was agreed that everyone in the club would share resources, but the harsh reality is that these guys seem to be very interested in big women, but have no interest in the intellectual older sister type!

How about... we replenish the inventory?

"Umm... Dame!"

His raised foot was forcefully pressed down by a hand. He already has a girlfriend, yet he still wants to buy this kind of book. Isn't that utterly ridiculous?

Shaking his head, silently praying that he could sleep with Nana Hana once they reached the home theater, Miyazawa Yu forced himself to move step by step toward the train station...

"Ding! A guest has arrived!"

"welcome!"

"what……"

The bookstore's air conditioning blasted cold air, but nothing could dry the tears streaming down Miyazawa Yu's helpless face—desire! What a powerful thing!

Although Azusa-senpai and Nanaka-nee are great, no matter how good the food is, spiritual nourishment is also a very important part of a boy's life.

This is an eternal curse that cannot be escaped even by becoming a popular person!

Who is the girl who bought the classic work in Chapter 208? It's so hard to guess!

Neon bookstores are a strange and abstract phenomenon. On the one hand, they do sell normal books, such as fashion magazines or textbooks for junior high school students.

On the other hand, as long as they apply for a license, they can openly sell magazines that are not very likely to pass censorship.

Furthermore, depending on the level of abstraction, the 18X section usually has two fates—to be improperly placed in front of the counter to increase sales, or to be gathered behind a curtain in a corner of the bookstore for solitary appreciation.

"Big Sister's Secret!", "Personalized Tutoring from the Girl Next Door", "Swimsuit! Beach! Unprotected!"

"Wow... It's only been a few months since I last checked, and there are already so many rising stars?"

With his eyes glued to the stunning curve and the completely unguarded gentle smile, Miyazawa Yu leaned back strategically, revering the constant updates in the world of doujinshi as if they were divine beings!

To be honest, the saying by the virgin uncle, "If you've been away for three days, you should be treated with utmost hospitality," actually seems to make some sense now!

Is this the legendary wisdom of feigning ignorance? Even a virgin's brain can inadvertently reveal the true wisdom of the world!

In short, there's nothing to hesitate about!

There's a little bit of prize money left, and it's not really useful to keep it for myself, so it's perfect to donate it to the older sister who can't afford clothes!

"let me see……"

After gathering the books he had chosen and holding them close to his chest, Miyazawa Yu furtively lifted the curtain of the 18th ward and peeked out, his movements not only incredibly elusive but also extremely practiced.

There's no way around it; buying classic works has to be done secretly, without telling anyone else.

It's enough that the saleswoman knows about XP, such a private thing. If he runs into someone he knows, will he still be able to continue working?

After making sure no one was around, he pulled his coat over his head to cover his mouth and nose, skillfully lowered his head, and quickly walked towards the sales clerk.

A mere ten-meter distance can't be covered in two seconds...

"Hibiki, why are you buying manga so late? If it's a bestselling hit, it must be sold out by now."

"Sorry! Sorry! I only realized it was Friday after I finished eating, and it's perfect timing to take the tram home!"

"Ooh-ah—!"

A familiar voice rang in her ears. Miyazawa Yu saw the cashier just inches away when the automatic door beside her opened simultaneously and two familiar girls walked in.

Emergency stop! With a 180° turn that nearly destroyed his ankle, he instantly appeared behind the shelf, clutching his wildly pounding heart and utterly bewildered—
