What's more, she has an advantage that Yukino Yukinoshita doesn't have. Thinking of that guy's breasts, which are almost as big as a man's chest muscles, she couldn't help but secretly laugh to herself.
On the contrary, there's even a vague feeling that I've risen in status, standing on the same level as the cute young lady, or that even this aloof and beautiful girl will eventually end up in the same situation as me—a wicked and cunning person.
Even if the girl herself isn't bad, this kind of plot twist, reminiscent of a light novel's satisfying storyline, inevitably evokes a pleasant feeling, even if it might not be entirely harmonious.
If kittens could turn into humans...
The beautiful and graceful figures of the other two girls I had just seen flashed through my mind. Even though I am a girl, I have to admit that these two girls are indeed lovely.
Kawasaki Saki suddenly remembered that she had once helped Higashino buy clothes for another girl, and judging by the size, it seemed to fit the blue-haired girl perfectly.
At the time, she was annoyed that Higashino, who already had another woman, was still always staring at her while she played duo queue. Looking back now, she realized that the time it took for him to turn back into a human shouldn't have been too long. So, he didn't actually eat the blue kitten at that time, and that's why he had to come looking for her.
As for the frequency decreasing slightly later...
Just as Kawasaki Saki initially thought, she didn't really have the right to question or be angry about it. At least she knew that this man still cared about her. Although he contacted her less often, his monthly salary never stopped, and their relationship never became distant whenever they met. In fact, it became more and more harmonious over time.
Sometimes, Saki Kawasaki even felt like a spineless wife who had been married to her husband for many years, and who, despite knowing that her husband was having an affair, had no confidence to say anything and could only pretend not to know, and still maintained a warm atmosphere at home.
But thinking about it carefully, she and he were not married, and she was not his wife. This man had never even called her "darling." Most of the time, he addressed her as the more rational Kawasaki, rather than the more intimate Saki. Sometimes he would even play pranks by calling her "Mom" to tease her.
Actually, it's not like I'm being pathetic.
With the lights off, Akira Higashino and Saki Kawasaki told each other the story of Shoko Toyokawa and Yukino Yukinoshita. Learning that Yukino Yukinoshita became like this because of an accident that happened at the zoo, Saki Kawasaki felt both scared and relieved, thankful that she wasn't the one who was affected.
Afterwards, there was a long silence in the darkness.
Kawasaki Saki thought she should be the first one. If it were based on the order in which they had sex, she could be considered an older sister or something. Besides, Yukino Yukinoshita and the others were so pitiful, she really felt bad about having any ill feelings towards them.
Suddenly, the girl took the initiative to introduce herself. After she finished, there was a moment of silence, and then Toyokawa Shoko, who looked a little conflicted, also introduced herself to her. She actually had a pretty good initial impression of this girl who was gentle and had taken care of her many times and who had also been bullied by Higashino Akira.
Following closely behind, Yukino Yukinoshita introduced herself in a somewhat cool voice.
What was clearly an outrageous incident ended in a way that was so ordinary it even seemed a bit absurd.
The three girls got to know each other, learned each other's names, and became aware of each other's existence. Now they no longer needed to deliberately hide from each other and could actively move closer to the warm center of the bed, instead of lying on the edge of the blanket and having to worry from time to time that the blanket would be rolled away and they would catch a cold.
Silent all night.
…………
Unbeknownst to Higashino Akira, the Slit-Mouthed Woman who had escaped his house after leaving behind harsh words had also figured things out. She realized that something was off about the person who had appeared in front of her when she was just born and recommended Higashino Akira as a high-quality food source. He was clearly up to no good!
Because she felt that her fellow creature was no match for her and was just a weakling, the vengeful Kuchisake kept searching for him, exchanging information with other Kuchisakes she encountered along the way.
Even though the fledgling Slit-Mouthed Woman wasn't stupid, she was still too inexperienced and was often tricked into revealing information by other urban legends and ghost stories, including her experience of being tricked and suffering a crushing defeat in her debut battle.
Then, inevitably, I was met with another round of ridicule!
As a result, the Slit-Mouthed Woman often fights with her own kind, but because she was born too recently, she didn't have time to collect enough fears from many people to solidify the spread of the Slit-Mouthed Woman urban legend that is the source of her fame. Most of the time, she didn't win against her other kind.
Fortunately, everyone is a dirty thing, and there's never too much power. Every little bit saved counts, and no one is willing to waste their energy killing someone who can't be killed at all. Even if they kill him this time, as long as the urban legend that is the source still exists, it won't be long before a new individual ghost story entity is born again.
The Slit-Mouthed Woman also realized the importance of power. While searching for her enemies, she gradually began to return to her old ways, remembering that she needed to scare people.
Of course, not all of her kind were bad. During her wanderings, the Slit-Mouthed Woman encountered a few people with whom she had a fairly good relationship. Although they mocked her, they also offered to help her take revenge when they had time.
The Slit-Mouthed Woman didn't think they could win, but she didn't say so.
Who told these guys to dare laugh at her?
She can't be the only one suffering in the end, can she?
There's nothing you can do if you get laughed at when you're the only one who gets infected, but if everyone gets infected, then you can't laugh at each other anymore, right?
Anyway, that man isn't that heartless; as long as he doesn't go too far, he won't die.
Even if you die, you can just be reborn.
No longer as innocent as when she was first born, the Slit-Mouthed Woman has become somewhat cunning and is plotting something maliciously.
Continue with your current job.
The Slit-Mouthed Woman recently discovered something: the adults of this era are too wicked. They aren't afraid of female ghosts at all; instead, they plan to date or befriend them. Despite being human, their resentment and darkness seem even more terrifying than urban legends, and they don't enhance her strength at all, which infuriates her.
However, children are much simpler and are easily frightened, and their fear can last a long time!
Scaring a child has a much greater impact on her power than successfully scaring ten adults!
So, the slit-mouthed woman easily cut through the hollow metal fence outside the kindergarten, which was as thick as a child's wrist, and quietly slipped inside.
Walk towards the area inside the park where there are amusement rides and a group of children playing.
She calls it "efficiency" to scare a whole group at once!
Although there's another colleague over there, it doesn't matter. What she needs is human fear and the spread and awareness of the Slit-Mouthed Woman legend, while that evil spirit colleague needs human souls. Everyone's busy with their own things, so it doesn't affect anything.
As she got closer, the Slit-Mouthed Woman's gaze shifted and locked onto a little purple-haired girl playing on a swing.
In her opinion, little girls who look soft and cuddly are the easiest to be scared of. In addition, girls love beauty even when they are young. If she were to say that she would cut her face to look like hers, the little girl would definitely be scared to tears!
When one child starts crying, the other children will start wailing too!
The swing went higher and higher, and something felt off. That colleague was messing with her. How annoying! Couldn't she find another target?
"Hello, children." To prevent any accidents caused by her companions from scaring the children away prematurely, the Slit-Mouthed Woman quickly spoke to attract their attention, "Excuse me, could you please do me a favor?"
"Okay!"
"Big sister, why are you wearing a mask?"
"Big sister, your eyes are different from ours, they're so beautiful, can I have them?"
Of course not, you little brat!
The slit-mouthed woman's forehead veins throbbed twice from the barrage of rude questions. "Kids are so annoying!"
However, she still had to maintain a gentle attitude on the surface. When it comes to scaring people, if you start by intimidating them, you often won't achieve the best results. But if you proceed gradually, first lower the other person's psychological defenses, and then suddenly reveal your most terrifying side, the effect will be much better!
"Well, I wanted to ask you all, do you think I'm pretty...?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl who had been marked as the target by the Slit-Mouthed Woman but was preemptively attacked by her companion suddenly flew out from the swing that was already swinging higher and higher, and then struck a pose in mid-air.
Upon landing, she slammed her fist into the open ground in front of the swing, instantly obliterating her colleague who was of similar strength but whose attack style leaned towards magic damage.
Um--!!!!???
The slit-mouthed woman's eyes widened in disbelief.
The children gasped in surprise, and some even cried and ran to call the teacher. Soon, the kindergarten teacher, looking worried, rushed over to check if the little girl was injured. Following her gaze, she saw a woman she had never seen before who did not look like a staff member of the kindergarten.
"Oh, are you someone's parent?"
The slit-mouthed woman was terrified by the little girl's calm and emotionless gaze. She decisively covered her face and ran away the way she came without looking back.
"I'm not, don't worry about me, I'm irrelevant!"
This world is too dangerous! How can there be such terrifying kindergarten children?!
Waaah…

Chapter 83 Another Touching and Wage Deduction
The next morning.
Kawasaki Saki opened her eyes from under the covers, staring blankly at the ceiling above her head. After a long while, she gradually regained her alertness and liveliness.
She sat up and looked to her sides; the other two human figures that had been raised inside the blanket had disappeared.
Last night felt like a dream.
Maybe it really is a dream?
The girl thought to herself that the idea of a kitten turning into a human was something she had heard countless times and still found unbelievable and unrealistic.
She gently pinched the face of the man beside her, whose eyes had opened at some point and who was now quietly looking at her.
"There's still a lot of pork rib soup left from yesterday. I'll go heat it up. Don't sleep in, or the soup won't taste good when it gets cold."
Akira Higashino closed his eyes and remained silent.
Seeing this, Kawasaki Saki puffed out her cheeks unhappily, her ears turning slightly red. She looked around to make sure no one else was there, then gave him a look that said, "I can't stand you," and quickly lowered her head to gently kiss his lips, pulling away after a brief touch.
When she looked up again, two cat heads had somehow emerged from under the covers on either side, staring intently at her with wide eyes.
In an instant, Kawasaki Saki's hair, which was already a little messy from just waking up, became even more disheveled, and her face turned bright red.
Akira Higashino opened his eyes again and quietly looked at the shy girl with the kitten. His eyes, which had been calm just now, now held a hint of pleasure.
Kawasaki Saki noticed this change and gave him a disapproving glare.
Good or bad!
Kawasaki Saki got up and sat on the edge of the bed with her back to him as she dressed. Her beautiful and graceful body swayed with the movement, and the blush on her ears had not yet faded.
Higashino Akira reached out and gently patted the cat's head. He then divided his two thousand units of luck equally and poured them into their bodies. A mosaic film covered them, and the two girls appeared on the spot.
Kawasaki Saki, who was quickly getting dressed, turned around when she heard the noise, her pupils widened slightly, and then she turned and left the bedroom without saying a word.
So it wasn't a dream after all.
Yukino Yukinoshita and Shoko Toyokawa nodded to each other as a greeting, and then went their separate ways. The former went to the guest room to change, while the latter stayed in the master bedroom and borrowed a set of clothes from Saki Kawasaki to wear temporarily. She had mentioned this to Saki Kawasaki the night before and received her consent. As for anything more intimate, she was too embarrassed to ask, since their relationship was too awkward.
After a quick wash, we ate in silence.
Yukinoshita Haruno came to pick up her younger sister from school again. When she saw Kawasaki Saki there, she greeted her warmly.
"Ah, Saki is here too, oh yo..."
"Good morning..."
Kawasaki Saki responded somewhat shyly in a low voice. She had suffered from being too shy. Although she should have been unhappy as the one who was theoretically the victim, she suddenly felt embarrassed and became cold in attitude because of the other party's enthusiastic treatment.
Seeing the girl's reserved expression, Yukino Yukinoshita felt even more at ease.
She's not even the possessive type of girl; she's shy and cute. Higashino-kun has really good taste.
Then came a barrage of compliments. Despite being a girl, she said to another girl how cute she was and how she would definitely fall in love with Saki if she were a boy, making one's cheeks burn.
This older sister might actually get along very well with Higashino!
They all love to play pranks on people.
