Uneasy daily life

Toyohama Kazuka: "..."

Q: No problem! What's the use of a car arriving fast? It can't fly in a straight line, can it? We might even need to ask the customer for directions...

“I know that place well, you two sit tight.”

After hearing the destination, the taxi driver didn't ask any more questions about how to get there. He casually turned on the car's music, and a melodious and slow song drifted out, only to be pulled into a straight line by the taxi that had taken off like a rocket.

Truly, it can be said: A fierce tiger grinds its teeth in its heart, and the bloody wind seems to rise with the wind. Like thunder and lightning chasing after the lingering echo, it lives up to its youthful arrogance.

At night, there are no traffic jams, no speed limits, no traffic lights, and no pedestrians crossing the zebra crossing. What a luxurious road condition!

The taxi driver, having seemingly unleashed years of pent-up road rage, sped off at the apartment entrance with a speed that bordered on the audacity of a roc spreading its wings, almost defying traffic laws.

Feng Bin and Hua were in the car, and before they could come up with a way to stall for time, they heard a casual greeting.

"arrive."

We are here already?!

Feng Bin and Hua glanced at the familiar apartment outside the car window, then got out of the car somewhat bewildered. Watching the taxi slowly drive away after taking the fare, she suspected that the driver had deliberately created difficulties for her.

"What's wrong?" Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Kazuhana Toyohama. "Something's strange. What happened?"

"Uh..." Toyohama Kazuka reluctantly made up a reason, scratching her head and saying, "I always feel like I've forgotten something, like I think I remembered it, but then I forgot it again, and I just can't remember it no matter what I do. And I feel like the thing I forgot is troublesome and important... Doesn't Koyukinoshita feel this way?"

Yukino Yukinoshita thought for a moment: "Did you leave something at Shirakami's house? You can make an international call and ask your sister and Anshinin to keep an eye out."

“Uh…no, that shouldn’t be it,” Toyohama Kazuka said, racking her brains. “My suitcase only contained my passport, visa, and a change of clothes for going abroad. There wasn’t anything important…it was just that feeling of panic, like I’d forgotten something…”

Yukino Yukinoshita offered another guess: "Since it's not that something was left behind, then it must be some kind of plan or arrangement? For example, you only took a short leave of absence, and according to the plan, you were supposed to start working soon, but you forgot about this."

Kazuka Toyohama retorted, "Impossible! I'm very dedicated! How could I forget something like this?!"

Yukino Yukinoshita gave a soft "oh," and said calmly, "If it's not a lost item or a mishap in the plan, then what's making you so panicked?"

That bastard and his sister were doing *that* upstairs!

Feng Bin and Hua almost blurted out the truth, but feeling unusually guilty, they still tried to evade the question: "Koyuki, maybe you've forgotten something? Actually, I'm not worried about what I've forgotten, but I feel like you've forgotten something?"

Wait, wait! This feels like I'm about to confess about my sister! Ugh! So annoying! How can that jerk usually lie and cheat so seriously?!

"Hmm... if that's the case, then it must be King and Knight," Yukino Yukinoshita said after a few seconds of contemplation. "I left them at the pet shop before I left..."

"Yeah!"

Feng Bin and Hua immediately chimed in, "Your cat is still with you, sister! Let's go to the pet store and get it back!"

“Indeed, to be on the safe side, the pet store has to keep King and Knight in cages to prevent them from getting lost,” Yukino Yukinoshita said, seemingly interested. “It’s too cramped for cats…”

There is a play!

Feng Bin and Hua nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, let's go pick up the two cats."

Yukino Yukinoshita casually pointed and said, "The pet shop is over there..."

Fengbin and Hana subconsciously turned their heads to look. The street was brightly lit under the streetlights, but they didn't see any pet store signs. Damn it, could that pet store be nearby? How are they going to stall for time like this? Are they hoping that Yukino will become obsessed with petting cats?

Where is the pet store you mentioned?

Quiet.

"Under the light snow?"

Toyohama and Hana turned around blankly, only to see Yukino Yukinoshita running into the apartment from behind.

……ah?

Hmph! Bai Jun actually sent Feng Bin to fool him, who does he think he is?

Yukino Yukinoshita ran away quickly, full of disdain for someone's plan—to get Toyohama to cooperate with him to deceive me? Toyohama practically had "I and that bastard have a conspiracy against you" written all over his face. He couldn't come up with any reasonable lies to fool her, so he had to come up with all sorts of ideas for her.

I'd like to see what kind of trap you, White Fungus, are preparing.

Yukino Yukinoshita swiped her card to enter the apartment, stepped into the elevator, and pressed the floor button in one smooth motion.

As the elevator slowly ascended, Yukino Yukinoshita pondered and reviewed her reasoning... There were two issues. First, given Shirako's ability to judge people, she should know that Toyohama is not good at lying, so it's somewhat strange that she would try to deceive her.

The second point is that Feng Bin has always been indifferent to Bai Jun. Even if Bai Jun suddenly says that the weather is nice, Feng Bin will kick him first. He doesn't care if he is deceived or fooled. He has already kicked him and it is not a loss. Why is he cooperating with Bai Jun's tricks?

Because of Sakurajima, Toyohama is somewhat of a sister complex. As soon as she hears that it's about Sakurajima, she will definitely help immediately. No matter what interview program or individual interview it is, she can't do without mentioning Sakurajima Mai a few times. She is basically an openly known die-hard fan.

If it's something related to Sakurajima, it's normal for her to try her best to find a way. Shirakami often uses Sakurajima to tease Toyohama, just like she uses herself to tease her older sister...

It is known that Shirogane probably dragged Sakurajima into the mess, perhaps by deceiving or persuading Toyohama, so that Toyohama would fool him.

Question: Why would Baijun send Fengbin, who is completely incapable of deception, to deceive him? Judging from Fengbin's behavior, it seems he intends to stall him for a while and prevent him from going upstairs directly.

Ding dong——!

The elevator arrived at its destination, and the crisp announcement sounded like lightning through Yukino Yukinoshita's mind, causing her eyes to widen as if the elevator doors had opened.

...No, really?

Sakurajima shouldn't be like her sister, right? Firstly, there's the issue of the influence of being a public figure; secondly, Sakurajima never shies away from her pursuits; and thirdly, given Sakurajima's rationality, it's hard for her to do anything impulsive. So, Sakurajima has always acted quite naturally...

Or did the white fungus directly transform into a lower organism, and as long as it can reproduce, there's no problem?!

That's not quite right either...

Yukino stepped out of the elevator, lost in thought. Suddenly, she remembered something from a few years ago. In her memory, Sakurajima was the one who confessed to Shiro. At that time, she and Shiro were somewhat rivals in love... If you want to say it happened naturally, it was mainly after they were in a relationship. Before they were in a relationship, Sakurajima never hid her idea of ​​bringing Shiro into the entertainment industry so that she could have both her dreams and love.

Thinking about it this way, it feels like after the relationship was established, Sakurajima subtly suppressed her emotional impulses, seemingly rational, but in reality, it was just a habit. Then at some point, she realized that all of this was just self-inflicted suffering. Her deliberate composure was anything but composure, so she decisively liberated herself...

Yukino Yukinoshita came to her senses and found herself standing in front of Mai Sakurajima's house. She understood why Shirakuni had tricked Toyohama into tricking her. Because Toyohama was not good at deception, she could easily see through her motives and naturally understand what was happening from her motives.

Then, consciously refrain from looking at what is indecent, pretend not to know, and dawdle for a while before coming back.

In other words, there might be something very wrong with it! The white fungus is trying to subdue the enemy without a fight!

Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips, turned around to go into her house, then stopped and looked at Mai Sakurajima's door with a mixture of curiosity, anger, and nervousness. She had a key on her, and even if she didn't have a key, she could use a substitute to open the door.

Ugh—that wretched Shiro-kun, he just brought Sakurajima back on his own, and he's using this old-fashioned method, trying to make Yukino Yukinoshita defeat Yukino Yukinoshita...

Resentment, mixed with annoyance, flickered in and out of existence; shyness occasionally surfaced amidst the bitterness; retreat and anger swirled and knotted in place.

As Yukino Yukinoshita fumbled for her keys, a rare complex expression on her face, she suddenly noticed the numbers flashing on the elevator meter—Toyohama must have caught up with her!

make a prompt decision!

Yukino Yukinoshita thought about all the times she had been bullied in the past, and decisively stomped her foot and handed over the key!

Today! I'm going to let you, you white fungus, experience what it means to be so embarrassed you want to self-destruct! I'll make you a complete idiot, and we'll all perish together!

With a turn of the key and a push of the door, the girl transformed into a self-destructing vehicle, storming into the house and heading straight for the bedroom without hesitation.

The subtle yet distinct sounds, like demonic whispers, pierced the ears and penetrated the heart, stirring up waves of emotion.

Her voice choked with sobs, a half-sound leaking from her lips; her emotions, hidden on her face, revealed a blush of shyness. Was romance merely a pursuit of fleeting pleasure? She granted herself entirely to tenderness, both anger and joy.

Ugh! Vulgar!

What a vulgar habit!

The white fungus, who immediately gets excited and stirs up trouble whenever it sees a weakness in someone's mind, is really wicked!

Yukino Yukinoshita secretly tugged at her heartstrings and quietly stood in front of the door. She felt a mix of nervousness and hesitation, as if the door to hell was right in front of her and she should never open it. At the same time, she felt a burning desire to have opened the door and perish together with her!

Suddenly, footsteps came from the direction beyond the soft music. Yukino Yukinoshita glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw Toyohama Kazuka standing at the door with a bewildered and disheveled expression. Perhaps her mind had gone blank, and she didn't know how to react for a moment. She couldn't speak, so she could only make random gestures that she herself didn't understand.

Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips, suddenly pressed the doorknob, and pushed it in, forcibly suppressing her shame and trying to put on an imposing and piercing look.

This is justice being served!

The room lights were on. Bai Ying sat on the bed, holding Sakurajima Mai in his arms, having just whispered some inappropriate poetry in her ear. Sakurajima Mai rested her chin on Bai Ying's shoulder, her arms around his back, her legs wrapped around his waist, trying to suppress her lips, though occasional soft moans escaped her lips. Her long, black hair was disheveled, sometimes clinging to her forehead and temples, sometimes resting on Bai Ying's shoulders, sometimes cascading down like a curtain to obscure the blush on her cheeks.

The sudden opening of the door caught the attention of the two, who were somewhat confused by their emotions. They instinctively looked towards the doorway and froze on the spot.

On the other hand, Yukino Yukinoshita, who had mentally prepared herself and tried her best to emphasize that this was a righteous act, was also stunned, especially when she saw Mai Sakurajima—what kind of shameless outfit was this, with her snow-white skin on top and black stockings on the bottom? I thought you were a pure and rational person like me!

The air fell silent for a moment.

"Well--"

Suddenly, Mai Sakurajima lowered her head forcefully and bit down hard on Bai Ying's shoulder. Her black hair, glistening with moisture, flew down and covered most of her face.

Bai Ying also gasped in shock, looking at Yukino Yukinoshita with a bewildered expression—could it be that the hero's intelligence suddenly dropped, and he failed to understand the deeper meaning of my elaborate scheme?

"Hmph...Hmph!"

Yukino Yukinoshita came to her senses and tried to confront him righteously and coldly to show that she was upright and honorable.

The first nasal sound sounded weak and hesitant, while the second nasal sound inevitably seemed forced and unnatural.

Yukino Yukinoshita slammed the door shut again, separating the two who were shivering and bewildered in the wind. She then turned and ran quickly away from the scene...

Fengbin and Hana stepped aside, looking bewildered, and watched as Yukino Yukinoshita awkwardly rushed back to her own house, then stared blankly at the door that had been closed again.

What exactly did I see under the light snow?!

Chapter 130 Eating, Eating

Quiet.

Quiet.

It was very quiet.

The hero came and went like the wind. Although his Seven Injury Fist combo forced him to flee in a sorry state, it also precisely silenced both the white shadow and Sakurajima Mai.

Although he predicted that with the hero's intelligence, she would definitely be able to see through the stick figure's acting that it didn't exist, deduce the general situation, and then, looking back and forth, he would sneak back home with some unease... The hero must be having a tantrum. He wondered what kind of emotional processing she was going through in her mind that led her to come up with such an impulsive plan of mutual destruction.

His brain snapped out of the brief, flashing white light experience, and the white figure, his thoughts swirling somewhat sluggishly, tried to analyze the curve of the character's psychological changes. He held Sakurajima Mai in his arms with one hand, and unconsciously placed the other hand on her smooth back, gently stroking it as it trembled slightly. For a moment, he still couldn't figure out the hero's motivation.

Suddenly, the pain in her shoulder became more pronounced. Bai Ying gasped and, not to be outdone, pressed her thumb firmly against Sakurajima Mai's tailbone.

Sakurajima Mai also shuddered in pain. She released her grip, raised her head, and stared wide-eyed, tears of shame and lingering pleasure glistening in the corners of her eyes.

"This has gone beyond the realm of romance. Are you trying to transform into a female praying mantis?" The white figure coughed and put his arm around Sakurajima Mai, who was about to explode. "Calm down, stay composed. If you act impulsively, that's what you call the way of a hero. Quickly adopt a dignified and composed demeanor, and use the style of a mature adult to annihilate this mere hero..."

掐！

Pinch it!

Pinch! Pinch! Pinch!

Sakurajima Mai didn't utter a sound, but suddenly used two fingers to pull hard on Bai Ying's face with her left hand and twist her fleshy thigh with her right hand. Even though Bai Ying had thick skin, she was made to gasp in pain by the dull pain.

"Stop! Stop! This isn't my fault! Go tear the hero apart!"

It's not your fault?!

Sakurajima Mai didn't reply, strength +1!

"Huh? It's not because of that? I didn't mean to be in there! Let's talk rationally. Wasn't it because you got so emotional that you hugged me tightly, not giving me a chance to get away? You couldn't control yourself, so how can you blame me for not being able to control myself?"

While gasping for breath, the white figure rattled off a string of sarcastic remarks: "My words will surely leave even the most 'heroic plus' speechless and make him flee in disgrace..."

Oh my god! Why are you pinching me even harder now!

"Hate-fan..." Sakurajima Mai said in a low, furious voice, forcing out the words through gritted teeth, her disheveled hair making her look like a female ghost demanding revenge, "You did this on purpose, didn't you!"

"?"

The white figure was taken aback, a question mark appearing above its head.

Intentionally... Wait a minute! Where did this scapegoating come from?!

Bai Ying instantly understood what he meant and loudly protested, "I didn't find the hero to give you thrills. Don't you know whether I was panicked or not just now?"

"You know? How dare you say that!"

Sakurajima Mai decisively pinched and pinched, listing Bai Ying's crimes in quick succession: "Wasn't it you who suddenly took out your phone to take pictures on purpose? Wasn't it you who tipped off Yukino? Wasn't it you who deliberately provoked her to break in? You just love causing trouble, causing trouble, and making fun of people—"

Her face flushed with shame, and a jumble of emotions broke through the walls of reason. Mai Sakurajima ruthlessly attacked the white figure.

"You hater, you just like to deliberately provoke people, don't you? The bigger the reaction, the more excited you get, right? Well, I'll give you a taste of that today!"

"Ouch—! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

Oh no! The Hero Plus has gone berserk!

But...

Her slender fingers pinched and twisted the fleshy parts, causing waves of pain. Her graceful body swayed back and forth with the movements, stirring up a subtle, undulating sensation...

Bai Ying's eyes twitched, her expression subtle, the pleasure of a masochist—this is probably the feeling of a mixture of soreness and pleasure.

"?!"
