Tokyo Soft Rice King

Shizumiya reached out and took Hei Yuming's sportswear. The loose jacket and pants would probably be baggy when worn.

She remembered a kind of clothing called "boyfriend shirt", which refers to a girl wearing only a boyfriend's loose white shirt, which can barely be regarded as a dress. Because it is looming and looks very sensational, it is sought after by many men.

It seems that every boy would like his girlfriend to wear a boyfriend shirt once...

The situation of Murasaki Palace was completely the opposite. Only the lining was missing because the short-sleeved sportswear of Kuroba Akira was washed.

And there is no change of underwear now, which means that after taking a shower, Zi Zhigong can only wear this sportswear naked.

The whole body is wrapped in Hei Yuming's sportswear...

Even though there was almost no skin exposed, Murasakimiya felt inexplicably ashamed.

"Then I'll go back to my room and wait for you, old lady. Hurry up and take out the bedding. I want to sleep in the living room tonight."

What greeted Kuroba Akira was Granny Kobayashi's wonderful native dialect swear words that even the Japanese could never match.

But in the end, Grandma Kobayashi still took out a new set of bedding and pillows, not for Hei Yuming, but because she was worried that this kid Hei Yuming would be shameless enough to cover himself with Murasakimiya Shion under the same quilt.

Even if Hei Yuming promised that he would never do anything, if a young man and a woman slept together, then the possibility of them becoming worse than beasts would be greater.

Grandma Kobayashi doesn't believe in Hei Yuming's willpower. How can a guy who always thinks about lying down and living off others resist eating something that is right in his mouth?

This kid will definitely take advantage of everything and then find a way to get away with it!

But she now knows that the love of the girl Ziyin was sealed by herself.

She still needs time to slowly realize her feelings.

It would be bad to let the matter be settled at this time.

It will distort girls' views on sex and love.

Thinking of this, Grandma Kobayashi remembered an old item that could come in handy to help Kuroba Ming and Murasakimiya Shion maintain a subtle distance.

"Hey, brat, come with me to the warehouse."

"What are you doing?"

"Move something. With that, you don't have to sleep in the living room."

"Oh? What?"

"Double bed."

Chapter 30 I Want to Sleep on Top of You

"Old woman...is this the double bed you were talking about?"

Hei Yuming looked at the 'double bed' placed deep in the warehouse and felt a little speechless.

It turns out that the so-called double bed refers to a bunk bed.

"Yeah, even though it's a bit old... well, it's still pretty solid and looks like it should still be usable."

Grandma Kobayashi also came over, grabbed the bunk bed ladder and shook it to test its strength, with a nostalgic look on her face.

Hei Yuming asked in confusion.

"Why do you have something like this in your house? Do you have many children, old lady?"

"I only have one son."

"Who is this thing for?"

"This is something my old man and I used before we lived here. We haven't used it since we moved here, but I kept it as a souvenir. I didn't expect it would come in handy again."

"Then why didn't it work later?"

Upon hearing this question, Granny Kobayashi immediately gave Kuroba Akira a disdainful look, as if to say, "Are you sure you really want to ask this question?"

Well, there is really no need to ask, and Hei Yuming also feels that it is stupid to ask.

As for why we didn’t continue using it, it was of course because we got married and slept in the same bed, so there was no need for a bunk bed.

"Before we got married, our relationship was quite ambiguous, but I couldn't leave him, so he made this bed for me."

"Did the old man make this himself? He has this skill..."

Hei Yuming didn't know what Grandpa Kobayashi did, but there were not many people who could make a bed with their own hands.

"Yes, he said it was a remembrance of his life in the army."

"The army...it turns out the old man was a soldier."

So that's why. No wonder this thing exists. It's a replica of the standard military bunk bed.

Indeed, this bunk bed is not like the bunk beds at home used by siblings. It is not beautiful at all and has a very simple structure.

However, this bunk bed reminded Hei Yuming of his college life in his previous life. When he was a freshman and sophomore, he lived in an eight-person dormitory and slept on this kind of bed.

It was very lively at that time. When eight boys got together, it was simply a carnival for the idea kings. They could come up with new things every day. Laughter filled the entire corridor and the whole building was in chaos. Happiness was so simple.

However, starting from his junior year, Hei Yuming moved to a four-person dormitory. Although the living environment was much better, there was a feeling of loneliness... Although his previous roommate lived next door and visiting each other was still as lively as before, the feeling of being as close as father and son on the upper and lower bunks was gone.

It's a pity that Kuroba Ming can no longer continue to be the father of his good sons.

In short, having a bed to sleep on is definitely more comfortable than sleeping on the sofa.

"He was originally a soldier. I only came into contact with him at that time because of his special status... Never mind, these are all old stories, so let's not talk about them."

Grandma Kobayashi didn't want to talk about the past anymore, so she ordered Hei Yuming to drag the bed out of the warehouse.

"Take it out, wipe it, and then move it to your room."

"Old woman, were you sleeping on top or on the bottom?"

"I sleep on the bottom...why are you asking this?"

"Nothing, it turns out you like being down there."

"You little bastard!!! You're a %￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥%￥!!!"

Kuroba Akira's dirty jokes successfully made Grandma Kobayashi furious, and she started cursing in Chinese, which was so loud that it scared Mr. Hijikata on the second floor, who came to open the window and look out.

It just so happened that Kuroba Akira couldn't move the double bed by himself, so he asked Mr. Hijikata for help.

So with the help of Mr. Hijikata, the two of them worked together to move the bed back to Kuroba Akira's room on the second floor.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Hijikata."

Mr. Hijikata is a middle-aged man who is a bit overweight. He wears black-framed glasses, has naturally curly hair, and a beard with stubble that almost reaches his temples. He wears a stand-up collar jacket and shorts, and his leg hair is so long that he looks like he is wearing woolen trousers.

His full name is Hijikata Isamu, a name with a strong Shinsengumi flavor, but he himself doesn't seem to like this name.

Mr. Hijikata was hunched over, holding his waist with his right hand, panting and looking like he was about to collapse from exhaustion.

"Huh... I feel like my old waist is about to break. I really need to take time out to exercise..."

"How about going for a morning run with me?"

"Forget about running. I'm considered overweight, and it would hurt my knees too much."

After recovering from his shock, Mr. Hijikata looked at the bunk bed with a nostalgic look on his face.

"Bunk beds?... I really miss them."

It can also be seen from here that Mr. Hijikata is a time traveler like Kuroba Akira, because most of the native Japanese people are day students, have never lived in a dormitory, and have never slept in a bunk bed like this.

There were three people staying at Kobayashi's house, including Kuroba Akira, but they were just roommates and had no deeper friendship.

No one is willing to talk about what happened before they traveled through time, perhaps because their lives in their previous lives were not very satisfactory.

"Is there someone new at home?"

"Yes, but not our kind."

"Oh."

Mr. Hijikata didn't ask any further questions, and seemed to have no interest in the newcomer.

Just at this moment, Murasakimiya Shion, who had taken a shower and changed into sportswear, walked out of the bathroom. When she saw Mr. Hijikata next to Kuroba Akira, she took the initiative to bow and greet him.

"Hello, I'm Murasaki no Miyabi Shion, and I'm staying here from now on... You must be Mr. Hijikata, so please take care of me."

"Uh... well... my name is Hijikata Isamu..."

Mr. Hijikata replied blankly, and Kuroba Akira could hear that Mr. Hijikata's breathing had become heavier.

As expected, Zi Zhigong's appearance is very attractive to men.

However, Mr. Hijikata had the experience of living two lives, so he quickly calmed down and whispered something in Kuroba Akira's ear.

"Hey kid, you have a second chance at life, isn't that better? Enjoy it. Don't worry about disturbing me next door. I'll wear headphones."

After saying that, he patted Hei Yuming's shoulder, gave him a teasing expression that said "I understand, all men understand", then nodded to Zi Zhigong and returned to his room.

"..."

Why do you all say such things?

So I won’t do it!

Zizhimiya walked up to Hei Yuming. She had just finished taking a shower and a faint fragrance was wafting from her body. There was a natural and attractive light pink blush on the girl's cheeks.

"Um, Mingjun... I saw women's business suits in the basket next to the washing machine. Is there anyone else here?"

"Oh, those must be Miss Tashiro's clothes. She's the third resident besides Mr. Hijikata and me, and she lives in the room across from me."

Hei Yuming pointed to the room opposite and continued.

"Actually, if she were here, it would be better to borrow some clothes from her, but unfortunately, she's probably not here right now. I don't know what Miss Tashiro does for a living, but she often stays out all night."

"That's it..."

"Yes, as long as you have a normal sleep schedule, it's usually difficult to see Mr. Hijikata and Ms. Tashiro. They are both night owls and rarely appear during the day."

Mr. Hijikata doesn't go out to work, but he is not a stay-at-home mom. He is a programmer who works from home and spends his nights typing code.

Because of staying up late, he has been in a sub-healthy state for a long time, just like Hei Yuming in his previous life.

Even if you travel through time, you are still a corporate slave. What a sad reality.

As for Miss Tashiro, it felt like she was avoiding Kuroba Akira.

I remember that the last time Hei Yuming just greeted her from behind, she screamed and ran away several meters away, which made Hei Yuming very hurt.

It seems that Ms. Tashiro is a socially anxious person.

However, Hei Yuming has not yet decided whether to cooperate with these two "fellow countrymen". After all, even if they are fellow countrymen, they may not be tearful in this foreign world or country.

After all, the saying that Chinese people will not lie to Chinese people is not necessarily reliable, let alone time travelers and time travelers.

At least as things stand now, neither Mr. Hijikata nor Ms. Tashiro are willing to reveal their past, and of course the same is true for Kuroba Akira himself.

"By the way, I will sleep with you tonight."

"Hey? Hey hey hey?! Do you really want to sleep together..."

Even with Zi Zhigong's talent, she couldn't completely suppress her surprised expression at this moment.

Even if it was just laying out the bedding side by side, it was an unprecedented experience for Zizhigong.

Sleeping next to a boy...if he sneaks into your bed in the middle of the night, how should you deal with it?

Should I resist? Or should I just accept it silently...

In return…

First experience...

While Zi Zhigong was daydreaming, Hei Yu Ming, who just wanted to tease her, pushed open the door of his room with an evil smile.

"Hey, look at this!"

Then Zi Zhigong saw the first piece of furniture placed in the empty room - a bunk bed.
