Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 590, The Incompetent Uesugi!

Uesugi Muneyuki eventually succumbed to Mai-senpai's golf cart attack.

In return, Uesugi Muneyuki must grant Mai Minami E, Rena Mikoto, and Asuka each one a request: they can designate Uesugi Muneyuki to accompany them on a task, and Uesugi Muneyuki must comply with their requests throughout the entire process.

"Well, it's not necessarily a bad thing." Uesugi Muneyuki knew that Mai-senpai wanted to add some color to his vacation to avoid the limelight. Uesugi Muneyuki also felt that if it continued like this, it would be a bit boring if it was just an ordinary vacation. He thought it would be better to see what the women around him wanted and then accompany them.

Whether it's the senior, Minami E, Rena Mikoto, or Asuka, they are all people that Uesugi Muneyuki can trust.

"Great, Zong Xue, could you perform that for us first? You know, that one."

"Which one?"

"That's it! That one, the one that you Chinese people like the most!"

Mai-senpai stood with her hands on her hips, her long, beautiful legs encased in sheer white stockings beneath her golf clubs. Her alabaster-like skin was even more flawless under the gentle sunlight of Karuizawa. Her radiant and beautiful face outshone even Minami and the others.

"What? Tea ceremony? Calligraphy and painting? Waka poetry? Hand games? I haven't studied any of these!" Uesugi Muneyuki didn't understand.

"Oh, that's it! It's Sichuan Opera!"

"Sichuan Opera? What? Face-changing?" Uesugi Muneyuki said curiously, "I don't know how to do that. Do I have to learn it on the spot?"

"No, I mean, junior, why don't you grow a short haircut with a full beard, get a little chubby like a bear, and then just wear shorts and white athletic socks, and perform a hand gesture dance in front of us? Hahahaha~" Senior Mai laughed so hard she bent over: "Round face, short hair, full beard, Ruby Lin on Chunxi Road~ Don't you Chinese just love this kind of 'masculinity'? Hahahaha~"

"…………Please forgive me for refusing!" Uesugi Muneyuki said with a dark face. He understood what Mai-senpai was thinking.

Like a certain country across the sea, Japan also had a period in its history when it was extremely fond of "homosexuality" or "cut sleeves." In Japanese history, this was called "shudo" or "wakashudo." To put it bluntly, it was when adult samurai and young samurai would have relationships similar to homosexuality due to their daily interactions. Some of them were just having feelings but keeping to themselves, but many more were... well, you know what I mean.

However, what is rather unusual is that the three great unifiers of the Sengoku period, namely Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, did not seem to be interested in the "path of the people".

Oda Nobunaga's most famous feat was with his page Mori Ranmaru. It is said that Mori Ranmaru was very young and handsome, which made him a favorite of Oda Nobunaga. He was also known for his talent and loyalty, and was trusted by Nobunaga. Therefore, Nobunaga did not allow him to shave his head and wear the gengku (coming-of-age ceremony), allowing him to keep his hair long.

Although Nobunaga's relationship with Ranmaru is often portrayed in later literary works as a romantic example of "the way of the people," historians hold a cautious view. The more mainstream view is that Nobunaga's affection for Ranmaru was based more on his extraordinary abilities and absolute loyalty, a master-servant relationship that transcended mere lust and was characterized by a high degree of trust.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi is historically documented as someone who clearly disliked and even loathed the existence of the "Shudo" (a type of martial arts). It is said that this was because he came from a rural background and had no interest in it. It is easy to understand that only young men who had left their jobs could be "young, beautiful, and odorless." It is impossible for Hideyoshi to have developed such a preference in the countryside when he was young.

There is little information about Tokugawa Ieyasu. Only unofficial historical records mention that he once sold ditch in Sunpu Castle in his early years (just kidding). He had an intimate relationship with a pageboy. However, judging from his behavior after he grew up and the mainstream records, Ieyasu never engaged in or liked the practice of secularism.

In the drama "Dragon and Tiger," Takeda Shingen is a famous figure known for his close relationship with the handsome young man Kousaka Masanobu (Kasuga Toratsuna). Their relationship is documented by the famous "Sixteen-Word Oath," in which Shingen pledges to Masanobu that his love for him is unique. His retinue of pageboys is also enormous.

Uesugi Kenshin himself was involved in various sects. He and several young military commanders were said to have "sect" relationships and were considered credible, but there was no "ironclad evidence" like that of Takeda Shingen. In particular, there were suspected "sect" records with Kawada Nagachika and Naoe Kanetsugu, generals of Etsukuni (of course, it is not clear which one).

Date Masamune was also known for being bisexual and had many beautiful concubines.

"In that case, it's settled then." Mai-senpai half-jokingly probed for a moment before loudly announcing that things were settled and that Uesugi Muneyuki would have to accompany each of them on a designated activity.

Uesugi Muneyuki sensed something was wrong. He reached up and covered his kidney, revealing a resolute look in his eyes.

Okay, come on!
Let the storm lash my chest! My chest!
First, it was Mai Shirakawa's request. The mischievous upperclassman, who wasn't studying hard, rolled her eyes and came up with an idea.

"Come with me to soak in the open-air bath, and while we're at it, let's discuss the application dilemmas of 'harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility' in the Urasenke school of tea ceremony in contemporary society."

At midnight that day, in Karuizawa, a private hot spring belonging to the Kanto Shrine.

A private hot spring bathed in moonlight, shrouded in mist.

Mai-senpai stood there, like a red plum blossom blooming in the snow. Her classic red and white shrine maiden attire—the white robes pure and flawless, the crimson hakama (red kimono skirt and trousers) a deep, vibrant color, as if dyed by the sunset—was strikingly different. Yet, beneath this sacred, traditional clothing lay a modern sensuality in stark contrast.

Beneath the hem of her crimson hakama skirt, instead of traditional white tabi socks, emerged a pair of long, beautiful legs tightly encased in pure white suspender stockings. The stockings were made of extremely thin material with a subtle matte texture, like a layer of fresh snow covering her shapely legs.

The white suspender stockings blended almost seamlessly with her fair skin, yet the delicate weave allowed the soft sheen of her skin beneath to shine through, further emphasizing the straightness and smoothness of her legs.

At the base of her thighs, delicate white lace garters connected to the garter belts under her shrine maiden outfit, appearing and disappearing, injecting a breathtaking, strictly restrained allure into the absolute sense of holiness. Her aloof face and this forbidden combination created a tremendous tension, as if she were a shrine maiden who had fallen to the mortal world and was quietly rebelling.

Meanwhile, Uesugi Muneyuki was soaking in the hot spring opposite, the water reaching his chest. His glasses were fogged up, and he looked disheveled. His hands were tied behind his back, a towel was stuffed in his mouth, and his legs were fixed in the hot spring pool. He could only make muffled noises.

"Junior, how can one maintain a calm mind while being chased by golf carts?" Mai-senpai sat next to Uesugi Muneyuki, dipped one of her white-stockinged feet into the water, and then placed it on Uesugi Muneyuki's chest.

"Waaaaaah~ Waaaaaah!" Uesugi Muneyuki cried out in righteous indignation.

"Wrong answer, deduct ten points!" Mai-senpai said with a coquettish laugh, lifting Uesugi Muneyuki's chin with her stockinged toes: "Next question, junior, what is the theme of Sen no Rikyu's 'Thatched Hut Tea Ceremony'?"

"Waaaaah~ Waaaaah~"

"Another wrong answer, another 10 points deducted!" "This is your last chance. Who are Wu Qingyuan and whom are your two opponents in the Kamakura Ten-Game Match?"

"Waaaaah~!" Uesugi Muneyuki wanted to say.

"Time's up!" Mai-senpai took the towel out of Uesugi Muneyuki's mouth and, just as he was about to give the correct answer, covered his mouth with her own.

"Ugh~ Ugh ugh ugh ugh~ Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh!" Faced with Mai-senpai's passionate French kiss, Uesugi Muneyuki still couldn't make a sound.

"What a pity, junior failed all three of your chances. What a shame." After kissing for a while, Mai-senpai was finally satisfied. She licked her lips contentedly, and pink hearts faintly appeared in her bright eyes: "So junior's heart and kidneys are mine!"

"Come on, junior, you're in charge of filling in the tally marks!" Mai-senpai's small hand, painted with pink nail polish, gently brushed against the top of her white stockings with suspenders.

"Waaaaaah!"

————This is a tally mark dividing line————

The next day, it was Minami's turn.

Seeing Uesugi Muneyuki's sunken eyes and unsteady steps, Minami felt both amused and distressed.

Mai Shirakawa, that woman, really!
Since he's not your fiancé, you're just going to keep kicking Zong Xue while she's standing up, right?

Damn it! I can't do anything about you now, but when I grow up and have more power and status, I'll define your so-called Kanto Shrine Alliance as an illegal organization and ban it without hesitation!

Considering that she would be playing a tennis match against the Emperor tomorrow, and given that Minami herself was really weak, the young lady thought for a long time and decided to keep things simple.

"Come with me to that birch forest over there, and let's play a game of the prince rescuing the cursed princess! You have to save me from the 'evil dragon' (referring to Erina Ikeda), and then carry me back to the villa!"

"Alright then." Uesugi Muneyuki breathed a sigh of relief; he only felt pain in his back!
In the tranquil birch forest of Karuizawa, sunlight filters through the straight tree trunks, making Minami look like a princess straight out of a fairy tale. She wears a light cherry blossom pink princess dress with a fluffy skirt, layers of tulle adorned with tiny crystals and lace, shimmering dreamily under the lights.

The puff sleeves accentuated her long neck, giving her a sweet and innocent look. Beneath the skirt, her slender legs were gently encased in pearlescent gray pantyhose. This gray was not dull, but rather carried delicate pearlescent particles, like a spiderweb illuminated by the morning light—understated yet luxurious.

The stockings were extremely thin and sheer, perfectly outlining the soft lines of her legs, from her slender ankles to her shapely calves and the subtle backs of her knees. Every part of her exuded a unique, proud, and alluring aura that belonged only to Miss Minami. When she gently turned her skirt, the pearly gray silk shimmered with a subtle luster in the light, complementing her sweet smile perfectly, like a carefully wrapped, sweet gift waiting to be unwrapped.

Minami leaned against a moss-covered rock with a "delicate" expression, playing the role of a cursed princess.

Uesugi Muneyuki, forced to wield a twig he'd found as a "katana," solemnly recited his chuunibyou lines to Ikeda Erena, who had been designated as the "evil dragon": "Go! I'm going!"

"Are you going to get in my way, Princess's ninja? Sekiro, huh~" Erena reluctantly played along with the act.

"Hesitation will lead to defeat!" Uesugi Muneyuki said with a half-smile as he charged forward.

"Dangerous!"

The two pretended to fight a few times, and Erena obediently fell down, saying, "That's despicable!"

Then, amidst the cheers of Minami's "rescue," he resignedly bent down, carried the sweet-smiling "princess" on his back, and trudged back along the forest path.

Minami happily swung her legs on his back, occasionally blowing air into his ear or saying in a sickeningly sweet voice, "Muneyuki-chan is so amazing~".

Uesugi Muneyuki was panting heavily, his glasses slipping down to the tip of his nose again. He thought to himself: This is so cringeworthy, so ridiculous. This is much harder than writing a doctoral dissertation... This is practically public execution. But looking at Minami's bright smile, he could only swallow his bitterness.

"Zongxue, Zongxue~ You said we're getting married in November, will your Mai-senpai stage that old-fashioned wedding-crashing scene?" Minami said with a smile, leaning on the man's back.

"It shouldn't be... right?" Uesugi Muneyuki was somewhat uncertain.

"Heh, I bet she wouldn't dare," Minami muttered to herself, her voice a mix of coquettishness and insecurity. But she still decided to give Uesugi Muneyuki a hint: "I'll let you in on a secret, Muneyuki, actually... I've ordered more than one wedding dress!"

"?" Uesugi Muneyuki was taken aback, thinking, "Why did you order so many wedding dresses? Are you saving them for next time?"

But he quickly came to his senses.

Hmm? The man's eyes lit up; he understood what Miss Minami meant!

Aha!

Seeing the man like this, Minami couldn't help but laugh and nuzzled his neck with her little head.

Zong Xue is actually quite naive at times. Putting aside his professional and career interests, all he thinks about is hunger and astringency.

But the time I spent with him was very exciting and joyful, and every day was full of new experiences!
