Rino Hoshina spoke softly.

Her beautiful pupils gradually softened.

Tokyo.

It turns out he's always been by my side.

When I miss you the most, we may not be that far apart.

In short.

Having a specific location is good.

At least we know he's alright and hasn't encountered the worst situation.

Now that we have a goal...

Even if you dig three feet into the ground in Tokyo...

Chiki Ryoshin coughed sheepishly:

"Um, Ms. Hoshina, I'm curious, what's your relationship with Koshu?"

She succumbed to the capitalists' tyranny and was forced to expose Xiaoshu's whereabouts, her heart filled with unease.

Could it be that the little tree has offended some kind of enemy?

What kind of commotion is this? They practically kidnapped her from Iceland, where she was on vacation, and brought her to Kyoto in broad daylight.

If it's a monetary debt, that's fine, but what if it's something else...

Hoshina Rino slowly turned around and gazed at her.

On her face was a beautiful smile that could captivate anyone who saw it.

It was as if all the stars in the sky suddenly lit up.

"Me..."

Her cherry-colored lips uttered heartfelt words.

"...She was his childhood sweetheart."

His girlfriend, wife, daughter... are everything to him, as long as he wants.

Chapter 163 Voice Changing LV2

……

April 28th.

Tokyo, Akihabara.

Miyazawa Itsuki walked down the street.

Tokyo at the end of April still retains the last stubbornness of spring.

After the sun set, there was a slight chill in the air.

Five days have passed since the first day of school closure.

Over the course of five days, he maintained a high frequency of taking orders, earning a considerable amount of points and money.

Name: Miyazawa Itsuki

Points Balance: 3150

[Skills: Shorthand LV2, Calligraphy LV2, Knife Skills LV2, Baking LV2, Driving LV2, Disguise LV2, Street Fighting LV1, Acting LV1, Photography LV1, Basketball LV1, Appliance Repair LV1...]

[Special Ability: A hatchet is useless against me, Casanova's Eye]

[Special Items: Passerby A's glasses, running shoes, Gemini's silver ring]

We've been taking on a lot of orders these past few days, even small ones.

The points have risen from over a thousand to over three thousand.

While not entirely well-off, at least when faced with some useful skills and items, one has the confidence to make purchases.

At the same time, there are several skills and items that can be refreshed during the date.

Things like [Cello LV1], [Gymnastics LV1], and scarves that inexplicably appear in early summer.

Most of the skills and items are of little interest to Miyazawa Itsuki because they offer him very little help at the moment.

However, there are a few exceptions.

[Voice Changer (Level 2 Professional)]

[Effect: Simulates different sounds by controlling vocal cord vibration and resonance cavities]

Voice change.

A technique for utilizing sound effectively; through deliberate training and natural talent, one can change different pitches and timbres, even to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing.

For renting a boyfriend, it's also a skill that's highly compatible.

After all, customers have all sorts of needs. One customer might prefer a younger, more mature type, while the next might prefer a more mature one.

Miyazawa Itsuki isn't a typical boyfriend with a fixed label, so he often receives bookings from customers with completely different tastes.

While the [Disguise (LV2)] and [Acting Skills (LV1)] enhancements have improved Miyazawa Itsuki's ability to change his persona, his voice is still a problem.

Controlling one's voice is always a difficult task when playing a boyfriend who is too old for the role.

However, now that he has obtained the relevant skills, Miyazawa Itsuki naturally considers exchanging for them.

The exchange pool refreshes every Monday, and today is Sunday.

He hasn't redeemed it yet because he wants to see if there are any skills or items more valuable than [Voice Changer (LV2)].

The fact that can be confirmed at the moment is that there are no new skills more worthwhile to redeem than [Voice Changer] today.

Today's guests finished their appointments this morning.

The other person was a lovely female college student who couldn't continue the subscription because she had run out of living expenses. The two waved goodbye in the morning.

Miyazawa Itsuki could only apologize for squeezing the last bit of money out of the female college student from her part-time job.

The female college student's dating skill revealed that she is [cookie making LV2].

Miyazawa Itsuki did indeed receive the cookies she made herself, and they tasted delicious. They even slightly surpassed the finished product he made with his [Baking LV2] skill.

Perhaps this is the advantage of specializing in specific skills.

Despite being a good skill, Miyazawa Itsuki, who had tasted the cookie, also approved of it.

However, since it already overlaps with [Baking LV2], he doesn't have enough points to invest in a repeating skill.

The goal of the exchange remains unchanged.

Balance: 3150 - 1150 = 2000

[Has learned "voice changing" (LV2)]

A familiar feeling surged forth.

Countless pieces of knowledge are imprinted into the brain, forming instincts.

Even muscle memory works perfectly.

It was as if he had trained in this field for ten years, or even longer.

Miyazawa Itsuki touched his throat.

There's a clear difference between professional and amateur skills.

After learning it in a short time, I even forgot the normal vocal techniques for a while.

"……what."

At first, there were some strange sounds, but they quickly became normal.

Passersby gave him strange looks, wondering why this handsome boy was suddenly making strange noises.

Female passersby furtively sized him up with their wet, squinting eyes. Some who wanted to strike up a conversation hesitated, intimidated.

Miyazawa Itsuki's expression was calm; his mental resilience was already strong enough.

Being surrounded by gazes was not enough to sway him.

After all, we've already entered this industry.

It's not like I haven't encountered even more awkward situations.

For example, during a date with a customer, you bump into the customer's ex-girlfriend.

The two girls started arguing and crying on the spot, making Miyazawa Itsuki look like a heartless cheater.

As he was pondering this, he arrived at his destination.

Cat Cafe MOFF.

A cat cafe located in Akihabara.

It was Naomi Asahina's suggestion that we come here.

When he asked for recommendations on suitable places to take his sister, Asahina Oomi provided a detailed list.

One of them is a cat café.

It is said that Yuzu prefers cute cats, and many girls of the same age are similar.

If you're bringing Xili to play, considering the interests of children of the same age might be a good option.

Miyazawa Itsuki considered it for a while.

Shiori also showed an interest in pets when she was a child.

While in Kyoto, they also rescued several stray cats.

Since you are not allergic to pet fur, cat cafes are definitely a viable option.

After asking Naomi for recommendations on cat cafes, Miyazawa Itsuki came to check them out in person.

He never goes on a date unprepared.

The outing arranged for Shiori after her discharge from the hospital was especially meticulously planned.

It's essential to do your homework beforehand, such as finding out the address, layout, and temperament of the cats at the cat cafe.

Everything is for the best experience for Shiori.

After asking about the recommended shops, Naomi showed that she didn't want to end the conversation and subtly inquired about his activities over the past few days.

Miyazawa Itsuki replied that he was working part-time.

Naomi Asahina's reaction was quite obvious.

Judging from the tone of the message and the stickers, the person on the other end of LINE seems to be very sad.

Naomi asked him why he was working so hard and if he needed help. Although she had only recently learned that his sister was hospitalized, she didn't know the deeper details.

Miyazawa Itsuki briefly summarized his family background.

Naomi didn't send any new messages for a long time.

The message arrived late, just as Miyazawa Itsuki was about to turn off his phone.

[nao_nao: I had no idea Tree-kun had such a past, I'm so sorry!!!]

[Tree: Naomi doesn't need to apologize. This has nothing to do with Naomi.]

[nao_nao: Why say such malicious things? Of course there's a connection!]

[nao_nao: Tree-kun's affairs are my affairs; we share weal and woe.]

Miyazawa Itsuki didn't recall the two having such a close relationship, but he still didn't intend to deny it.

As Naomi's current emotional support, denying their intimacy would be tantamount to giving that girl a final push. He absolutely couldn't do such a thing.

[nao_nao: I can give Tree-kun money! That way he won't have to work so hard.]
