At night, Mercury, wearing a windproof coat, returned to his loyal Konoha apartment.

But before they could go up, they were stopped.

"What are you doing here, you lunatic?"

Mercury looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was blocking his way, with surprise.

The security situation at night isn't that good these days. How could a girl dare to go out alone? Is she out of her mind?

"Crazy? Who are you calling crazy?" Kasumigaoka Utaha suppressed her resentment and swallowed the words she wanted to say. "I came here specifically to visit you. A beautiful girl like me coming to see you in person, aren't you secretly pleased? You drunkard."

Mercury made a face that was hard to describe: "^{ↀ▃ↀ}^"

This guy really needs to be taught a lesson.

Not wanting to deal with this lunatic, Mercury lifted his foot and continued walking.

His time is very precious, and he doesn't want to waste it on a mentally ill person.

"Wait a minute, this is for you." Kasumigaoka Utaha took out a bottle of white wine from behind her back and handed it to him.

Mercury froze on the spot, glanced left and right, quickly snatched the wine and stuffed it into his pocket, muttering, "Well, you've even learned to bribe people. You're quite cunning."

Kasumigaoka Utaha rolled her eyes, cursing the drunkard a hundred times in her mind, but said with a straight face, "I want to join your Beast Group and become Takatsuki Sen-sensei's assistant."

"Pfft—" Mercury had just taken a swig of wine when he sprayed it all over her face.

Seeing Kasumigaoka Utaha's face turn as black as the bottom of a pot in an instant, he coughed twice, covered his mouth, and looked her up and down with disbelief in his eyes.

"You? Join us? Do you even know what the Beast Group does? You want to come in and be a buffet?"

The series of questions raised demonstrates the extent of Mercury's shock.

and……

"How did you find out about the Beast Group? You haven't been following Yoshimura Etsu all this time, have you?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't reply, wiped her face, and tacitly agreed.

"You're ruthless, Kasumigaoka Utaha, you're really ruthless." Mercury gave her a thumbs up.

"So, is it okay or not?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked with a dark face. If she didn't need his help, she really wouldn't want to have anything to do with this drunkard.

But who can blame him when this drunkard is the president of the Beast Group?

She couldn't believe it when she heard about it from that young, blond girl.

"Hesitate." Mercury took out his phone, put his arm around her shoulder, and said, "Come on, make a peace sign with both hands."

"Huh?" Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was about to slap his hand away, was taken aback. Seeing his serious expression, she subconsciously did as he said.

"Roll your eyes upward, then squat down, splitting your knees slightly."

"Get lost! Do you want more 'oh ho ho ho'?!" Kasumigaoka Utaha rolled her eyes, then realized what he meant and kicked him in an annoyed tone.

Does she not know what ahegao is?

"It's boring."

Seeing that she had realized what was happening, Mercury disappointedly took a regular photo.

Then it was sent to the Wild Beast Group's group chat.

"Alright, just go start work tomorrow, no one will bother you."

"Thank you." Kasumigaoka Utaha breathed a sigh of relief, nervously twisting her hair, and stammered, "There's... there's something else..."

"What else is it?" Mercury looked at her speechlessly. "It's almost autumn, and it's really cold today. Don't make me stand in the cold wind with you, okay?"

Seeing that he was getting impatient, Kasumigaoka Utaha quickly said, "You know, I'm still a second-year high school student, and I don't have much free time..."

Before she could finish speaking, Mercury already knew what she meant.

In summary...

"You want to take a position and get paid, but you don't want to do any work?" Mercury looked at her dangerously.

Did you end up taking advantage of a freebie?

Nobody can get money from him for free! Nobody!

"I don't want money!" Kasumigaoka Utaha hurriedly said.

The next second, Mercury held her hands tightly, and she heard his smiling voice in her ear.

"Welcome to the company."

……

"I'm back."

As Mercury pushed open the door to room 504, he immediately sensed something was amiss.

"The flooring has been replaced?"

He looked down at his feet. The old floor, which had been charred black by fire and cracked by ice, had now been replaced with brand new solid wood flooring, which carried a faint woody scent when stepped on.

He raised an eyebrow and walked inside. The pair of eye-catching gold fluffy slippers in the entryway were gone, replaced by a pair of flamboyant red ones.

In the living room, "Tomie" was curled up on the sofa, slowly putting a potato chip into her mouth while her fingertips were twirling it. A melodramatic idol drama was playing on TV, but she didn't even glance at it; her gaze was fixed on the figure that had just entered.

She suppressed the urge to pounce on him immediately, as usual.

"You're back." Tomie pointed to the water glass on the coffee table, suppressing her excitement. "Have some water first."

"I'm not thirsty." Mercury casually took a swig of wine and asked curiously, "Back so soon? Did the old headmaster say anything?"

"She didn't say anything." Tomie said in a disgusted tone, "I don't want to see those annoying brats."

"Alright then." Mercury was a little puzzled, but didn't say anything more.

The old dean must have had his reasons for bringing Tomie back.

"The food is in the fridge, go heat it up yourself." Tomie's eyes gleamed with anticipation, her gaze still fixed on the television.

Just eat some...

"I'm not hungry." Mercury sat down next to "Tomie" and switched the TV to the legal channel.

"Damn it! All that preparation was for nothing!" Seeing that none of the things she had prepared were used, "Tomie" gritted her teeth.

"Well..." "Tomie" was about to say something when her nose suddenly twitched, and her previously composed expression instantly darkened.

She suddenly moved closer to Mercury, her hair brushing against his neck, carrying a faint, cool fragrance.

Mercury didn't even move, calmly taking a sip of his drink. "What are you doing? What's wrong with you?"

Tomie didn't speak, but squinted and sniffed him. "You smell of other women, two of them. You've been cheating on me again."

"Don't you dare accuse me unjustly..."

Before Mercury could finish speaking, "Tomie" pounced on him and pinned him to the sofa.

Soft lips pressed against his, carrying the salty aroma of potato chips and a hint of coldness, swallowing up all the rest of his words.

After a long while, Tomie slowly raised her head, a sly smile in her eyes.

"It seems your older sister really has to control you."

Mercury: "...Just say you want it."

"You don't want to? I'm still a virgin~"

Mercury's pupils contracted sharply, and he grabbed her wrist abruptly. "What did you restore?!"

Who knows?
