Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

When Kato Megumi came out, she saw Hachiman holding a few wet, yellow tissues.

Seeing the girl coming out, Hachiman immediately said, "Brother, listen to my explanation. If I really meant to do something bad, then the liquid on the tissue would definitely not be nectar."

As a result, Kato Megumi took the initiative to come over, and instead of blaming him for anything, she put her hand on Hachiman's crotch.

He was immediately shocked. What happened to these two people?

There was a hint of coldness in Kato Hui's eyes: "Are you stimulated by the senior?"

Nonsense, he is not a robot. It would be strange if he didn't react after being seduced by a curvy young girl for a whole night.

Seeing Kato Megumi's question, could this be... welfare? The young man's heart was a little excited.

As a result, Kato Hui loosened her hand and took two steps back: "Just masturbate yourself."

Kato Megumi returned to her room coldly, leaving Hachiman at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Well, I really messed up and offended everyone at once.

Chapter 47: Detonation Begins

After the events of that night, the three people who were in the Paz apartment seemed to be in a subtle state of strangers.

Kasumigaoka Utaha probably knew something, so she was angry with Kato Megumi, but because of what happened that night, she was embarrassed to face Hachiman.

Kato Megumi took the blame on herself and did not have the face to ask for forgiveness from her senior.

Of course, Hachiman didn't look at him in a good light because he had just made a promise and then messed up.

The only fortunate thing was that during this period Hachiman went out early and came back late, which avoided a lot of embarrassment.

Just like this, in this delicate imbalance, time gradually came to late autumn, and Kato Megumi's pregnancy reached the fifth month. Her "little belly" began to come out, the early pregnancy reaction disappeared, but her appetite became more and more vigorous.

Although she was in a bad mood during this period and was supposed to help Hachiman, he did not let her participate for some reason.

During this period, classes and studies are still going on as usual, but the atmosphere among students has become a little weird recently.

"Hey, Lemon Rental seems to have some problems recently."

"Yes, I saw a UP doing popular science on YouTube. It's amazing that they charge high fees but rent low. I was wondering why renting a house there is cheaper than signing directly with the original landlord. It turns out that they are playing a trick of capital pool."

"Isn't this considered illegal fundraising?"

"I took out a year's rent loan and now I'm planning to get a refund. I don't know if I can make it in time."

"Hahaha, have you ever heard of a bank run? We are experiencing a bank run now. There is no way we can get the money back."

"My landlord has already started evicting people. Damn it."

Kato Megumi listened to the complaints of her classmates spreading across the campus. Since Lemon Apartment specifically targets young people who have just graduated from college and entered the working world, once there is a problem with the cash flow, the news will spread the fastest within the school. She opened her phone to check the stock price. The stock price of Lemon Technology, the parent company of Lemon Rental, has been falling for a week and may even hit the limit today. On social media such as YouTube, Twitter and Facebook, more and more financial UP hosts have begun to popularize the operational risks inherent in the long-term rental apartment model like Lemon Rental.

All in all, the heat has begun to build.

Only Kato Megumi knew that Hachiman and Olivia were taking action.

Just as Kato Megumi continued to follow up on the relevant news, the caller ID rang. Seeing the name "Renye-kun" displayed on it, Xiaohui pressed the reject button. Then the call records showed that Renye had called more than 30 times recently.

After packing up her books and putting on her slightly old-fashioned gray backpack, Kato Megumi rode her bicycle out of the campus.

But when I returned to Pas Apartment, I saw my senior schoolmate arguing with an old lady.

"Lena, please, you can't do this. I have a formal contract to rent this place, and I have paid the rent for a year. What reason do you have to kick me out?"

As she spoke, the senior sister, who was already a little impatient, became louder and louder.

"Oh, of course, Ms. Kasumigaoka, you are absolutely right. I have also seen your rent payment receipt and there is absolutely no problem. However, I have not received rent for two months. Lemon has violated the contract with me. Of course, I have the right to take back the house!"

But the fat old woman was not one to sit there and do nothing, and there was also anger on her red face.

"If you have any problems, go find Lemon. What does it have to do with me?" the senior student said angrily.

"This is what I want to tell you. If you have any problems, go find Lemon. Don't occupy my house, or I will call the police."

This is a common problem with third-party leasing. The rights and responsibilities are unclear. It’s fine if nothing goes wrong, but if something goes wrong, it’s a complete mess.

"Senior, what happened?" Kato Megumi hurried forward, really afraid that they would start fighting.

"Xiao Hui, you've come at the right time. Just sit on the chair at the door and see who dares to come in. Lian Na, I have to tell you that Xiao Hui is pregnant. If you dare to do anything wrong, be careful of the consequences."

Senior Shiyu's warning made Kato Megumi feel a little amused and helpless. Where did she learn these tricks?

However, the old lady landlord named Lena seemed to be really afraid. After saying a few harsh words, she left. I don’t know whether she went to find the police or the person who rented the house to Lemon.

As soon as the old woman left, the senior student, who was almost furious, paced back and forth in the hall.

"No one has ever said that I am a scoundrel who owes rent. Haha, I, Kasumigaoka Utaha, have become a deadbeat."

"Senior sister, calm down." It can be seen that Senior Sister Shiyu was really angry.

"By the way, did the senior also rent a house with Lemon? How come I didn't know about it?"

Perhaps because the situation was urgent, both of them put their emotional issues aside.

Kato Megumi transferred her share of the rent to her senior, but she was not clear about the form of the contract.

Senior Shiyu waved her hand and said, "Actually, I don't want to use it either. I originally thought that the original landlord would be more secure, but Lemon has a lot of houses. Basically, all the apartments that I like are in its hands, and they are cheap."

This is the power of Lemon Rental's operation. Kato Megumi heard from Yawata that when Lemon Rental was at its peak in London, it occupied 40% of the second-hand rental properties on the market, especially mid- to high-end apartments, 70% of which were held by Lemon. Of course, this is also a reflection of the first-mover advantage.

The housing resources are kidnapped from upstream, and even non-price-sensitive users like Senior Shiyu have to rent a house with Lemon.

Of course, everything has its pros and cons. In the past two days, news broke that some of the properties in Lemon's hands were filled with fake users' identities in order to package and securitize these assets. And because of the bank runs that began in the past two weeks and the demands for refunds, the Lemon Fund Pool game can no longer be played.

"No, I need to go to East District 1, which is Lemon's headquarters. No one answers the customer service line."

The senior student changed into a cool casual outfit and put on a brown beret. Her slender figure made her look neutral and handsome.

"I'm leaving. Remember to lock your door when you go out."

The senior student left in a hurry, driving an Aston Martin.

This made Kato Megumi feel a little funny. You are a young lady with tens of thousands of pounds of pocket money. Are you really so angry over a few thousand pounds?

But after thinking about it, it was not like her to keep silent after suffering a loss.

Only then did Kato Megumi remember that it seemed that she hadn't seen Hachiman for some time. That guy seemed to know that he had done something wrong. Even when he came back every day, he would hide from the two of them. Kato Megumi could hear him go out before she got up. Sometimes Kato Megumi fell asleep and only heard the door open.

When he is lazy, he is really lazy, but when he is busy, he works harder than anyone else.

She had originally planned to use the afternoon to review her lessons, but she changed her mind.

Now that the issue of long-term rental apartments has gradually become a social topic, it is not difficult to find out where he stays during the day.

Chapter 48: As long as we jump off the building, people will have no buildings to jump off

After the senior drove her Aston Martin to join the huge debt collection team, Kato Megumi anticipated that it might not be so easy for the senior to get the money.

She put her things down, closed the door, and locked it to prevent the old woman from coming to steal the house. Then she rode her bicycle, following the route she remembered, slowly moving along the shady road at noon when the sun was at its hottest.

She looked up at the azure blue sky. It was a rare good weather in London in autumn and winter. She looked up and saw wild geese migrating along the way, leaving the country that was about to become cold to find a warm place to spend the winter.

Kato Megumi recalled the "wish" she had told Hachiman that night. To her, touching the feathers of a bird flying high in the sky was just a crazy fairy tale.

Unconsciously, the girl stopped her bicycle and looked at the high-end apartment in front of her. Hachiman had been elusive for some time, so it went without saying that he would be with the woman named Olivia.

The best evidence is that a series of problems with Lemon Rental were suddenly exposed, causing its stock price to plummet.

But when Kato Megumi reached the door, she remembered that she didn't have Olivia's contact information. Could she contact Hachiman who was in the "Cold War"?

Just as he was hesitating, a Maserati stopped not far away and a woman in a sexy dress walked out of it. It was Olivia.

The sexy girl was also stunned when she saw the young Kato Megumi, and slowly walked closer. Kato Megumi hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Um, is Mr. Hikigaya here with you?"

Olivia didn't know what she remembered and was trying to hold back her laughter. Looking at Kato Megumi's puzzled expression, she explained jokingly.

"Do you know what kind of people come to my place to look for men?"

“………” She didn’t know and didn’t want to know.

"I'm the legal wife who's here to catch him cheating. When I heard your question just now, I instinctively wanted to run back. Hahahahahaha."

The girl laughed wildly, as if she was recalling her tragic experience when she was caught cheating by the wife in the past.

How many times has this happened? It has become a conditioned reflex. Kato Megumi couldn't help but complain in her heart.

It is hard for the young Kato Megumi to imagine her eventful life.

"Come on, I'll take you in to find him. He's having a blast here, partying every night, having sex. You probably came to see him because you noticed he's been missing a lot lately."

As if to deliberately arouse the girl's anxiety, Olivia spoke in a frivolous tone, and the sexy twisting of her waist was the most powerful persuasion.

The girl narrowed her eyes slightly. Although this little beauty tried hard to conceal it, the trembling between her brows and her lightly clenched fists subconsciously reflected her true emotions.

"Come on, come on, maybe you can see him doing a 69 position. I tell you, there are so many beautiful women with big butts here."

Not giving Kato Megumi a chance to escape, the girl "clamped" her and walked into the apartment.

Then the girl found that her heart was beating so fast that it seemed to hit her throat. Her mind was filled with imaginary scenes. She didn't know how she would react if Hachiman was really indulging himself in sex...

He clearly promised me, she thought to herself.

I don't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but after opening the door of the apartment, there was no orgy party as I had imagined, but there was also no sign of Hachiman. There was only a makeshift "studio" with two rows of tables and six computers.

"I'm not lying, they are all beauties."

Kato Megumi looked over and saw that she was indeed a young beauty with blonde hair and blue eyes, but she did not have the slightest coquettish temperament. Instead, she turned this place into a busy battlefield, full of capable and strong temperament.

"Hahahahaha, you really believed what I said before you opened the door just now."

The girl gently touched Kato Megumi's nose.

"I'm starting to like you a little bit."

But I hate you, Kato Megumi felt angry after being fooled.

"Um, where's Mr. Hikigaya?"

"Instead of asking boring questions like where he is now, don't you want to see the masterpiece he created first?"

As she said this, Olivia's face showed a hint of admiration.

"Masterpiece?" Kato Megumi asked in confusion.

"Fei, turn on the projector and connect it to your monitor."

Olivia instructed, and the blonde closest to the two pressed the remote, and the picture that slowly appeared on the projector turned out to be a live broadcast of someone trying to jump off a building.

Moreover, Kato Megumi observed that the number of people in the live broadcast room increased rapidly and soon exceeded 100,000.

Kato Hui suddenly realized: "Could this be someone who is planning to commit suicide because of Lemon's housing problem?"

The girl looked at Olivia suddenly, and for a moment, she seemed to be looking at the culprit.

Olivia picked up a bottle of beer and said with a smile: "Do you think that people want to commit suicide because we exposed the problems in Lemon Apartment? When did the world become a place where people who are brave enough to expose the abscess become bad people?"

Her smile carried a hint of human torture.

Instead of blaming the Spencer family for playing this illegal fundraising game, why do we blame those who pointed out the problem?

"That's not what I meant."

"Yes, it doesn't matter. You're actually right. If we don't make any unnecessary moves, this Ponzi scheme can continue for now, and maybe this person can escape. Of course, it doesn't matter how many people die when this bomb explodes. After all, the person in front of us cannot die, otherwise it will be our fault, right?"

Olivia continued to mercilessly mock Kato Megumi, or rather, anyone who had such saintly thoughts.

Kato Megumi remained silent. She knew that the other party was right, but she could not agree with his statement after all.

"Besides, the person who proposed this whole operation was Hikigaya Hachiman. Do you think he knew it would turn out like this?"

Then, Olivia continued to put mental pressure on the girl as if torturing her.

Kato Megumi thought of Hachiman's ruthless methods. As long as he could achieve his goal, how high would his moral bottom line be?

He said he was not a good person.

Even, don't mind letting innocent people die? Kato Megumi didn't know, and didn't want to know at this moment. She even regretted coming here. Perhaps it would be better to see Hachiman indulging himself here than what he was doing now.

Olivia looked at Kato Megumi for a while, and seeing her slightly pale face, she suddenly couldn't help laughing.

"No wonder that guy said he wanted to accumulate virtue for the child. He knew you couldn't accept it."

Kato Megumi raised her head and looked at the other person in confusion.

"Don't worry. We have already discussed with the guy who is about to jump off the building. It's just a show. He won't really jump. We have also prepared several such shows. As long as it can cause enough public opinion to get the relevant departments to intervene, it will be enough. And as long as we jump off the building, there will be no other building for people to jump off."

Perhaps if this continues, someone will really be forced into a desperate situation and jump off a building, but as long as there is someone else with a similar experience jumping off a building to watch him, he will not jump.
