In Tokyo: They are heavily dependent on me

Chapter 97. The Dangerous Thing in My Heart

After school, Kaoru went to the kendo club as usual.

With no one else around and in a completely private space, there are fewer things to worry about.

"Kaoru-kun... what's wrong? You seem unhappy today."

Yanagi sat on the smooth ground, letting Kaoru's head rest on her lap.

"I...I messed everything up. Everything could have been better, instead of being like this, all because of me..."

I only feel this way when I'm with Department Head Yanagi.

There's no need to worry about anything else complicated; just pour out your heart, and whatever you say will be accepted without question.

Perhaps this is why Kaoru wanted to take advantage of the other person every day after school.

"No, Kaoru-kun wouldn't mess everything up. It was just a mistake. Such difficulties are easy for Kaoru-kun to overcome, right?"

Under Liu's masculine face gazed tenderly at Xun, his hand resting on her head, patiently stroking her fluffy black hair.

An expectant smile appeared on her face.

"After all, Kaoru is the only man who can defeat me, so don't make yourself sound so weak."

"I'm not that strong... I'm actually quite weak."

Kaoru buried her face even deeper.

The touch on her hair became incredibly gentle, a warmth she had never experienced before.

"Kaoru-kun... I won't allow you to talk about yourself like that. If the person who can defeat me in front of everyone is a weakling, I'll start to doubt myself. So, just think of it as being for my sake and forget about that kind of thinking."

"Minister Yanagi no Shita... is very gentle..."

He couldn't help but feel a desire to abandon everything and immerse himself solely in the comforts of his present life.

But... only he knew the truth.

That won't work.

The sound of the door closing rang out quickly.

When Liu looked back at the spacious activity room, it was already empty.

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

"5:30... You're late, Hoshino-kun."

Looking out from the spacious, bright floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the Tokyo Skytree in the distance, offering a very wide view.

The girl, holding a glass of red wine and gently swirling it, looked at him with a hint of impatience in her eyes.

"I'm sorry... Miri-chan, something happened..."

"You can't be late, Hoshino-kun. I'm a very punctual person."

Under the refraction of light, Miri's pupils bulged out like a cat's, giving off a rather dangerous feeling.

She raised the wine glass in her hand, and with a mischievous grin, poured the wine into her palm. Watching the deep red liquid seep through her fingers, she spoke in a commanding tone.

"come over."

"Miss Miri..."

"Can't you hear me?"

"Yes."

Xun obediently stepped forward, and upon hearing the other party's command to "squat down," she obediently squatted down.

"There should be consequences for being late, so show me your determination to admit your mistake now."

That behavior... made the attitude it was trying to convey quite clear.

"Ms. Miri... as you know, drinking alcohol before the age of 20 is prohibited."

"So, Hoshino-kun means I'm inducing you to commit a crime?"

Although the smile on her face looked gentle, the message it conveyed was... quite different.

The other party clearly did not give him any other choice.

"I see."

Seeing that Kaoru obediently brought her cheek closer and cleaned the deep red liquid from her palm in the most primitive way, like an animal, she let out a "hehehe" laugh and laughed with satisfaction.

What a well-behaved child!

"We need the ones on the ground too."

There are no plans to end this here.

She pointed to her feet, seemingly waiting for Kaoru's reply, her eyes filled with a greedy yet expectant look.

"yes......"

Kaoru lay on the ground like an emotionless machine.

Just as he was about to make his next move, Miri used her toes to lift his chin, her gaze fixed on his face from above.

"What a good boy, but... even if you're a toy, doing that will make you all dirty, so I'll forgive you this time, just this once."

"Yes... I'm extremely grateful..."

Kaoru stood up, remaining silent as if waiting for her next response.

"Hoshino-kun's change is really obvious. He was trying to resist last time, but he accepted reality so quickly after only a few days? His obedient personality, like a dog... I don't dislike it."

"So... do you want a reward? I can grant your wish, just tell me yourself."

"A reward... is that really possible...?"

Kaoru's gaze moved downwards.

The focus is on the image of the toes being vaguely visible through the black stockings.

"Is that so? I understand."

Miri withdrew her toe that had been lifting his chin, and with a little force, she pulled off all the black calf socks.

He tossed it forward, and it landed right in Kaoru's hand.

"Take it. This is what those disgusting men have been longing for every time I step onto the stage. And you're just handing it over to me so easily... You should cherish it like the most precious flower."

The socks still had a noticeable body temperature. After answering "yes" again, Kaoru carefully folded them and put them into the pocket of her outer coat.

"Big sister, why give such a precious gift to a man?!"

At that moment, the tightly closed door was opened.

She is the other member of the 'LOVE' group, Yui-chan.

Her face was clearly filled with dissatisfaction, and she made a complaining sound before glaring at Xun with great force.

"It's only natural that such a lovely child like him should be loved."

"But... it's been so long since I've been loved by my older sister."

Yui nestled in her arms, and Miri gently stroked her face in a comforting manner...

Such an intimate scene inevitably makes people wonder if something deeper might have happened between the two.

"Alright, practice is about to begin today. Please take care of Hoshino-kun in the care of Yui."

Miri pushed her forehead away with her fingers as if she were a child; her manner was completely that of an adult.

"What... I'm not feeling enough warmth..."

Yu Yi kept snuggling into her arms, making coquettish noises, a stark contrast to her aloof demeanor on stage.

This moment lasted for several minutes.

The moment the door closed, Kaoru's body slammed against the wall behind him with a force, and the pain in his back made him frown.

"Give it back to me..."

Yu Yi's face came closer, her hands gripping his collar tightly as she glared at him.

"Take my sister's things..."
