These are all unwanted by the cultivation base. Strawberries are not very valuable because they can be propagated by runners; one plant can spread into more than a dozen plants.

In addition, he bought several long-fruited mulberry trees so that he wouldn't go without fruit in the spring.

Blueberries are out of the question; they're so hard to grow that when you buy blueberries online, you mostly get crabapples instead.

In this way, mulberry trees grow in spring, grapes and watermelons in summer, various fruits in autumn, and persimmons in winter, so there is fruit to eat all year round.

After a busy afternoon of transplanting the seedlings into pots, Qing Shui Tou had to face a problem.

—If I were to live with two girls, should I have them live on the second floor while I live on the first floor, or should they both live on the same floor?

Originally, according to his idea, in order to avoid the awkward situation of accidentally seeing something he shouldn't see in the future, it would be best to live on separate floors.

But Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion naturally wouldn't agree; what they wanted was for Shimizu Toru to see what he shouldn't have seen!

"Well, how about this, we'll all stay on the second floor, but I'll try not to use the toilets and bathrooms on the second floor, and I won't go to your rooms unless necessary."

Shimizu Toru also plans to install double-glazed windows in one of the first-floor rooms to turn it into a dedicated karaoke room. This way, he won't have to worry about disturbing the neighbors when he sings karaoke; it'll truly be karaoke inside the villa!

"Alright then, let's leave it at that for now—what should we eat tonight?"

Feeling like she'd been transformed into a "China stomach," Lily, in her late twilight years, couldn't stop thinking about the stir-fried eggs with chives she'd had for lunch. Unfortunately, she'd already eaten lunch and could only manage a taste.

"We still have quite a few vegetables left. We've been eating too much meat and fish these past few days, so it's time to eat some vegetables."

In fact, Beihai Farm already has seedlings ready for cultivation, which can save at least half a month.

But since Mr. Fan didn't offer any suggestions, it's clear he had no intention of selling the seedlings directly, and it's not easy to force Qingshuitou to buy them.

It's okay if it's delayed by half a month. At worst, I'll just buy a small electric scooter and go to the supermarket every day.

It's a pity there aren't any Chinese supermarkets nearby. If I run out of seasonings, I'm afraid I'll have to make a special trip to Ikebukuro to buy more.

After dinner, Shimizu Tou, who had sweated a lot, was soaking in a bathtub that was twice the size of his previous apartment and could fit two people.

There was a sudden knock on the bathroom door: "Tou~ Need someone to help scrub your back?"

"Ahem! Lily, don't do anything reckless. I can't guarantee I can control myself!"

"www, Kawaii~ Just kidding~"

After teasing Shimizu Toru a bit, a cheerful Lily returned to her bedroom humming a song, filled with anticipation for their upcoming cohabitation.

How about we launch a surprise attack on Tou tonight?

An agreement? What agreement? Don't you know that the prettier a girl is, the less trustworthy she is?

After a nerve-wracking shower, Shimizu Tou had just returned to her room when she received a LINE message on her phone. It was from Ha Ge!

[Yuzuru Hanyu, do you know about VSPO?]

This starting stance looks kind of familiar, doesn't it?

While drying her half-dry hair, Shimizu Toru typed with one hand, "I know, but you wouldn't happen to be passing on the message and inviting me to a collaboration, would you?"

[Did you guess that? Well, that makes sense, considering how well your collaboration with Hanu Inaba and the others went.]

According to Mea, during a previous collaboration with Youxian Chicha, the average number of simultaneous viewers exceeded 10,000, which was better than any of their previous live streams.

Therefore, Shimizu Toru is now a piece of Tang Monk's flesh. Whether it is a corporate force or an individual force, they all want to get his second external collaboration. Even video influencers want to get involved.

[VSPO, what is this collaboration project? And when did you first meet them?]

Shimizu Toru is very familiar with the VPSO, which later became the third best-selling box in the world; he could even be considered a half-box enthusiast.

When he was preparing to debut as a costumed character, he Googled and found that Tachibana Hinano, Ei Lisa, and Usagi Mimi, who were originally supposed to debut next year, had debuted early. He realized that it was a parallel universe because Anne was not among them.

I never expected that he would have to cross paths with VSPO so soon. Life is truly amazing.

I participated in last year's V-Supreme Association and happened to be grouped with the Hanaya sisters.

"Did V-Support already exist last year?"

Of course there is! Last year was the first edition, and the second edition is coming up soon, but you definitely won't be able to participate since the groups have already been assigned.

This is the second edition already? So it seems the current V-League is competing in PUBG?

It just so happens that Shimizu Toru isn't very good at PUBG. When he started playing as a game booster in his freshman year of college, the game was already rife with cheaters.

While most FPS games have cheats, PUBG's are exceptionally outrageous; a headshot from 800 meters away is considered basic.

Not every FPS game can be like CrossFire, where people call someone a "big brother" when they see someone cheating. It's only a matter of time before the Chinese server dies out.

It's only because the Japanese are always a step behind that this game is still a national favorite.

The most outrageous example is League of Legends. No one watches the matches in the Chinese server anymore, but a bunch of people in the V2EX community are streaming it like crazy.

"If they agree to switch to playing Apex Legends, I'll join them. I'm free this week."

Okay, that's how I replied to them.

ε=('ο`*))) Sigh, it's just that Valorant hasn't come out yet, otherwise Shimizu Toru really wouldn't want to fight.

Putting everything else aside, the modeling, which was overly politically correct, just goes to show that EA truly lives up to its reputation as the worst game company in the US.

---------------------------

It's a little late. I was too excited last night and didn't get much rest.

Currently at 908 blades, five chapters still owed, five chapters tonight don't count.

Volume 1: Chapter 61 - Hanged Upside Down with a Pout [Seeking First Subscriptions]

The first night the two lived together was peaceful and uneventful.

It's also possible that Shimizu Toru locked the door from the inside before going to sleep. After all, these days, boys need to be careful about their safety even when they're at home.

He almost cooked just enough for one person for breakfast again, as was his habit, but then he realized what he had done and quickly threw in two more handfuls of noodles.

"One more soft-boiled egg for everyone, that'll do!"

I've heard that some people in Japan eat rice for breakfast, but I don't know if it's true or not. Anyway, I can't stand cooking rice so early in the morning.

As for not cooking? Does that mean you're like the Rice Master, only eating rice?

"Lily, it's time to get up~ and Rion too, you too."

After knocking on the two girls' bedroom doors, Shimizu Toru immediately returned to the living room, adhering to the principle of "don't look at what you shouldn't see or hear what you shouldn't hear."

He's starting to realize things; he seems to be more popular than he thought, the kind of person who could easily lose his virginity if he's not careful.

Although Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion are flawless in terms of appearance, figure, and personality, their overly proactive nature makes Shimizu Toru hesitate.

After all, they had only known each other for a short time. Whether it was love at first sight or lust at first sight, perhaps they themselves were not sure.

If you break up once the initial excitement wears off, how awkward would it be to keep running into each other all the time?

A dozen minutes later, Shimizu Toru finished his portion and noticed that the noodles in the other two bowls were almost soggy. He was about to go and urge them to hurry up.

As if they had planned it, Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion came out of the room at the same time.

Upon closer inspection, both of them had applied light makeup, but they were still wearing their pajamas; otherwise, they could have simply gone out, which is absurd.

"So the first thing girls do after waking up is put on makeup? Then next time I'll wake you up first and then make breakfast."

Gently tucking her hair behind her ear, Lily smiled and said, "It doesn't matter normally, but in front of boys, you should still pay attention to your personal image."

"Damn it! You stole my lines!"

Rion Takamiya, who was a step too slow, raised the threat level of the other party by one level again, directly regarding it as her biggest competitor.

"Um, I usually have to go to the firm for classes in the morning. You two should get along well at home and not fight."

Shimizu Toru felt that his tone was a bit off. It sounded like an ancient man with three or four wives and giving instructions to his wives before leaving the house.

"Don't worry~ I'll let her have her way." Sunset Lily took a bite of the soft-boiled egg, and when she noticed the yolk flowing out, she quickly sucked it out.

"Who asked you to give way!"

—Damn it! What's with this domineering tone?! I haven't even admitted defeat yet!?

Shimizu Tomo, who seemed even more déjà vu, left behind the words, "I'll leave the dishes to you to wash, bye-bye!" and quickly ran away.

Even as class was about to start, I was still a little worried that the two of them might be pulling each other's hair and fighting all the time at home.

To be honest, I'd really like to see it for myself.

After all, most men share the same hobby as Lü Xiaobu—watching women fight.

Today's acting class taught us that voice actors also need acting skills, otherwise their delivery would sound flat and lifeless.

Shimizu Toru has always excelled in this course because he has a strong ability to imitate; he can perfectly recreate a character simply by immersing himself in a similar role.

Taking advantage of the teacher's inattention, he took out his phone and logged into his personal account, which he hadn't checked for several days, and was surprised to find that he already had over 300,000 followers.

I haven't posted anything other than that one photo.

Is it really true that someone gained over 300,000 followers solely based on one—no, half—face? Aren't there a lot of people obsessed with looks?

Shimizu Toru now knows what it means to have a life that's easy; this simple mode is truly effortless.

I arranged the photos I took at Beihai Farm yesterday into a nine-grid layout, tagged Boss Fan's newly opened Twitter account, and then ignored it after posting the tweet.

It's a soft advertisement, so this level of effort is already quite good. He didn't get paid, so he can't exactly release a vlog to help promote it, can he?

As soon as get out of class ended, Daisuke Sakazaki caught him: "Shimizu, how could you selfishly accept an advertising job?"

"Huh? I just bought some vegetable seeds from him. The owner asked me to help promote them, so I agreed and didn't charge him."

Upon being caught using his phone in class, Shimizu Toru had no choice but to confess. Sakazaki Daisuke became even angrier: "What!? You haven't taken any money yet??"

"...I'm just a newcomer, I can't possibly name a price."

"That's true, but you can't do this again next time, or don't blame the company for taking your account and handing it over to the public relations department to manage."

Shimizu Toru nodded quickly in agreement, afraid that if she hesitated even a second longer, her account would be gone: "Okay, okay! I promise!"

Good grief, although he didn't care much about this account, if he handed it over to a company to manage...

The thought of having to take dozens of photos every day and then frequently appearing on trending lists by selling his face makes him prefer to retire and focus on being a costumed character.

After Kōji's advice, Shimizu Toru no longer minded getting roles based on his looks, since that was one of his advantages after all.

But if all you do is market your looks, aren't you just like those Chinese entertainment stars who need to have attitude, acting skills, and good communication skills, and can even recite their lines 12345?

Oh wait, the new generation of internet celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry have lost their good looks. They're a bunch of ugly men and average-looking women, not even as good-looking as the actors in short dramas.

After successfully saving his personal account, Shimizu Toru took a train route he wasn't very familiar with and felt that he should get a driver's license as soon as he turned 18 next year.

The Toden Arakawa Line is alright, but the other lines are really crowded and the exits are designed like mazes.

Unfortunately, in Japan, electric bicycles are considered light motorcycles, so they can't be driven on the road without a license. Otherwise, he would have bought an electric one to ride for now.

He's old enough to take the motorcycle driving test, even for large motorcycles, but he doesn't want to be a reckless motorcyclist.

Therefore, it seems a bit unnecessary to go through the trouble of getting a license, registering the vehicle, and paying taxes every year just for an electric bicycle that I will only ride for a year. I might as well just take the electric bike for another year.

—Or buy a car and have Lily or Rion drive me to the agency every day?

If someone sees this, won't they think I'm a kept man?

After agonizing all the way home, when Shimizu Toru finally got back, she found that the two of them, who had been at odds that morning, were now as close as best friends.

The way they held hands so affectionately was just like when they first met. The fake friendship between girls is truly unpredictable.

"You're back~ Lunch is ready, so you can try our cooking."

Upon hearing Rion Takamiya's words, Toru Shimizu's heart rate suddenly increased to 120.

What's going on? This feels like a wife preparing a meal and welcoming her husband home?

The two girls looked down at each other and simultaneously gave each other a slight smile.

—Isn't this enough to win you over? I don't believe any guy could resist being moved by this!

Shimizu Toru finished his lunch in a daze, and by the time he came to his senses, he had already been pushed into the bathtub by two girls, one in front of the other.

"Hey!? What, what are you guys trying to do??"

Half of his clothes had been stripped off; if he lost consciousness, something terrible was about to happen!

"I'll wash you clean~ Although you don't smell much, it's always best to have no regrets the first time."
