I became the emperor in the comic book series.

"That's good."

Looking at the still anxious pink-haired girl, Higashino Akira held her hand with a calm demeanor.

"Remember, spend the money in there as you see fit, don't save it. It's just your monthly allowance."

"you're worth it."

“Let’s go. I happen to have some free time lately. I did Yili a huge favor, so in return, Yili has to do me a favor.”

Chapter Ninety-Five: It hurts so much…

"Hey, where...where are we going?"

Akira Higashino didn't answer, but quickly took Ichiri Goto's hand and left, walking out of the park.

Goto Ichiri could only follow him closely as he led her into a black business car that looked very high-end.

We drove all the way to a large amusement park.

Buy a ticket to enter.

As soon as he stepped inside and saw the flow of people coming and going, Goto Ichiri felt like a salted fish that had come ashore; his legs went weak, he trembled, and his whole body shook.

Akira Higashino bought a half-face mask from the souvenir shop next door and put it on her face.

"Keep your spirits up, guitar hero."

"The world is vast, and there are many people. No one will care about an insignificant stranger forever. We are just ordinary people in the vast sea of ​​humanity, and there is nothing particularly different about us. We are all just ordinary people anyway, so we can be brave and face everything, and try to make our ordinary lives happier, freer, and more wonderful."

After adding all the attribute points gained from being bestowed the title of Miss Mary to his Spirit attribute, which broke through to twenty points, Akira Higashino's every word and action carried an extra power, or you could say an aura or charm, making it easier for him to persuade and influence others.

It's possible that the mask gave Pochi Sauce special courage.

In short, after hearing his words, Goto Ichiri, who had been feeling weak all over and almost suffocating, took a deep breath, pounded his chest several times, and gradually straightened up.

"oh oh!"

Although I was still hesitant and lacked confidence when replying, I was no longer as helpless as I was at the beginning.

"Have you been to the amusement park before?" Higashino asked.

Upon hearing this, Goto Ichiri lowered her head, looking dejected, and said, "No...no."

"Then we'll have even more fun later. For Yili's first time, you can lead the way if you want anything, and I'll go with you."

"Really...really?!?"

The girl raised her head in surprise and delight, looking at the young and handsome man beside her in disbelief.

Seeing this, Higashino Akira smiled and said, "Who can blame him when Ichiri is so cute?"

"Hehehe..."

He said I was cute again!

Upon hearing this, Goto Ichiri immediately covered his mouth with his hand, grinned foolishly, and revealed a little expression of enjoyment.

"It's time to move!"

"Hi! I'm here!"

At that very moment, a certain Ms. Gui Qu Lai Xi, who was practicing her band's new song alone in a karaoke room, suddenly sneezed.

Kita: It seems like someone is thinking about me, but I don't know who it is.

Akira Higashino accompanied Ichiri Goto, who was letting loose, as they switched between various amusement rides, including the carousel, bumper cars, claw machines, and photo booths. He even dragged the pink-haired girl out of the haunted house, who was not afraid at all but felt as safe as if she were at home, and who even scared the staff so much that they refused to leave.

As dusk fell, the colorful lights in the amusement park, which seemed to give people a faint sense of psychedelic light, lit up. After playing happily all day long, letting loose and experiencing most of the amusement facilities that he had wanted to try before, Goto Ichiri finally realized that he was tired, especially his shoulders and back, which felt heavy and sore.

The masked guitar hero's social energy has been depleted, and he wants to go home.

She turned her head and looked at her boyfriend pitifully and silently.

Seeing this, Higashino Akira pointed to the Ferris wheel not far away, "There's one last ride."

Over there, there are Ferris wheel cabins with karaoke equipment, a feature unique to this amusement park.

Akira Higashino led Boqi straight over, bought tickets, and sat in the cabin. As the Ferris wheel slowly rotated, the cabin gradually rose into the air. The colorful lights on the ground merged into a patch of light, and the entire amusement park looked like a glowing painting spread out on the earth at night.

Goto Ichiri stood at the observation window and looked down at everything that was new and exciting to her, something she was experiencing and seeing for the first time. Her eyes reflected a bright light, and for a brief moment, she forgot her fatigue and the anxiety she felt as a socially awkward person in such a vibrant place.

"So this is what Tokyo looks like at night. It's so beautiful."

"This is just a tiny corner of the city; there are many more beautiful sights in the world worth exploring and discovering."

Akira Higashino came up behind the girl, gently hugged her, and embraced her, responding softly.

For a moment, standing in the slowly rising Ferris wheel cabin, Goto Ichiri felt as if she were leaving the earth, and in the end, only she and Higashino remained in the world, each being the other's entire world.

Oh no, this seems like a romantic plot that only exists in movies and TV shows!

Should I take the initiative to express my love to him next?

No, no, no, only the male and female protagonists who are not yet lovers need to confess their feelings. She and he are already lovers, so it would be too strange for her to confess now.

If he tries to kiss me later, should I respond proactively?

*Squeak*...! This is so embarrassing!!!

Guitar Hero's thoughts began to wander.

"Is there anything else I should be aware of regarding the tickets?"

When Higashino Akira suddenly asked a question, Goto Ichiri was so startled that she almost fainted on the spot. Fortunately, Higashino Akira was there to support her, and after hesitating for a while, she replied in a low voice:

"No...don't hit Mom and Dad?"

Damn, Yili, you're a real talent!

Akira Higashino was so angry he laughed.

"I already said I wouldn't hit them, so what kind of image do I really have in your mind?"

"Gome na se!"

Upon hearing this, Goto Ichiri quickly apologized.

After a while, she closed her eyes and pleaded in an even softer voice, "If possible, please try not to bring other girlfriends, or try not to reveal that you are all in a relationship. I'm afraid my parents won't be able to accept it and will have all sorts of worries."

"Hmm... this is rather troublesome."

Higashino Akira pondered for a moment, which made the pink-haired girl's heart jump into her throat. "However, if Ichiri is willing to let Mumu Mei-nii do it for me, it's not impossible."

"Thank you...?"

Goto Ichiri blinked, looking at him blankly through the reflection in the observation window.

"For example, a sweet and soft kiss from a cute girl. After all, I made a special effort to take time out of my busy schedule to watch Ichiri's performance, so it's reasonable to receive a small token of my gratitude from Ichiri, right?"

"K...Kiss?"

Goto Ichiri was a little startled, his eyes widened, and he subconsciously swallowed.

"Should I...should I kiss you?"

"uh-huh…"

Upon hearing this, the girl hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Then, can you only invite girls?"

"Ok?"

"Well... after all, we're already a couple. My mom taught me that girls should respect themselves, and I don't want to kiss other boys."

Akira Higashino: ? ? ?

"Is it possible? I mean, you can just kiss me, not someone who comes when they have free time?"

"Isn't that right?" Upon hearing this, the girl's expression even seemed somewhat relieved.

"fool."

"Ugh... what the hell??^??"

He flipped the girl in his arms over and, catching her off guard, lowered his head and kissed her. This time, it wasn't the light kiss that was fleeting as before, but a deeper and longer kiss that was tender and enduring.

This feeling, even more stimulating than the previous kiss, left the girl somewhat flustered, her pretty face flushed red. She could only passively follow his guidance and accept his advances, her heart racing wildly.

It leaves your mind blank and even makes you feel suffocated.

When their heads separated, Goto Ichiri had already collapsed softly into his arms, her pure blue eyes glistening with tears as she stared at him with an innocent look, her chest heaving as she rapidly absorbed the oxygen from the outside world.

"You were so adorably silly just now, this is a reward for you."

Eh…!

"There's still one more thing I should thank you for not being able to kiss me first."

Ee ee ee—!!

The girl blushed and looked at him in disbelief.

She hesitated until she realized he wasn't joking.

I...I...I...this...this...

Never mind, let's go for it!

After hesitating for a long time, the guitar hero finally closed his eyes tightly, suddenly stood on tiptoe, and tilted his head back.

boom--!

"it hurts…"

After a muffled thud, the guitar hero opened his eyes, squatted down, covered his forehead, and burst into tears.

Higashino Akira reached out and touched his chin. Given his constitution, he didn't feel much pain, but... he was somewhat at a loss for words.

This is the kind of idiot who should be displayed in a museum.

P.S.: There's more tonight, but I'm not sure when it will be finished and posted, so you guys don't need to wait, just check back tomorrow morning.

Sorry, we ran out of groceries at home and didn't have time to restock, so I ordered some skewers. It took two hours to arrive, and then I got a bit of an upset stomach. I probably won't be able to write an extra chapter. To apologize, I'll write an extra chapter on my tab and pay it back tomorrow.

I am guilty, Gomenase.

Chapter Ninety-Six: Plans

In the evening, we went down to Kitazawa.

Because her family knew everything about her situation and did not actively hide it, Yukino Yukinoshita, who received special support from her family by having a driver and car pick her up, returned here earlier.

She was busily working in the kitchen, wearing a newly bought apron with a kitten pattern, when she suddenly heard the door open. She looked up and her eyes met those of the blue-haired girl who had just returned.

Yukino Yukinoshita hesitated for a moment before taking the initiative to ask, "Dinner is almost ready. I made your portion too. Would you like to eat some together?"

Actually, in this family, Yukino Yukinoshita has always been in a rather awkward position. In terms of intimacy, she is the only one who has not yet had a relationship with that person. In terms of seniority, she is not as senior as others, such as Saki Kawasaki, who has a long history with this girl.

Although they had already passively introduced themselves to each other and thus become acquainted, they were not really familiar with each other. She also did not have the same social skills as her older sister, Haruno. For quite some time, she had not taken the initiative to greet this 'roommate' who lived under the same roof. When they met, they would at most nod to each other and then go their separate ways.

Yuihama's words today finally shattered her pretense that everything was alright, making her realize that whether she wanted to accept it or not, the facts were already there.

Yukino Yukinoshita is unwilling to be that kind of weak person.

In the living room, when she suddenly heard the question from her 'roommate,' Toyokawa Shoko paused for a moment, turned to look at her for a while, and didn't sense any malice or flattery, as if what she had just said was just ordinary concern.

After a long pause, she nodded. "Thank you for your trouble."

In any case, it's a good thing that my roommate is willing to take the initiative to build a good relationship, at least I don't have to go through those annoying power struggles.

After saying that, Toyokawa Shoko turned around and walked towards the bathroom. After being outside all day, she felt sticky and uncomfortable. If she didn't take advantage of her current human form to clean herself up, she would definitely feel uncomfortable when she went to sleep at night.

If that guy were to come knocking on her door again in the middle of the night when she had turned back into a human, and he saw her looking disheveled, a girl with a strong sense of pride would probably feel that she would rather die than live.

The sound of rushing water gradually filled the bathroom as Yukino Yukinoshita lowered her head again to prepare dinner seriously.
