The social phobia substitute will not dream of the band girl

Yes, that's the maid!

For the young Murokasa Akane, the maid who wore a light maid outfit, had elegant manners but was good at all housework was her first role model and earliest idol.

But as mentioned before, she is the only daughter of an ordinary dual-income family. She started trying to take care of herself early on and even took care of her parents who were tired after a day of work when she grew up.

Growing up in such an environment, it was naturally impossible for her to daydream like a little princess in a castle. She had to face the reality early and give up her "dream" of becoming a maid and then becoming the mistress.

A new maid: It’s a substitute of the same type!

However, this "girlish sentiment" and this longing were once again ignited in Ping Xin's home, and then burned fiercely at this moment -

"Please, guide me, Sensi (teacher)!"

Even Zhu Yin, who has been precocious since childhood, wants to be a child who can be willful, and wants someone who can tolerate all her unreasonable things!

"Oh...oh?!" Pingxin didn't know what was impressive, but seeing that Zhu Yin looked so aware, he thought it must be OK, right?

But the person you should grab hands and beg for help is not me, but the master over there!

"Ahahaha, but I, an old man, will not accept you as my disciple. You won't stay here forever anyway, right? How much you can learn depends on your own efforts—

Young people should do what young people should do and bravely pursue their dreams!"

In this way, Zhu Yin successfully participated in the fireworks preparations for the Summer Music Festival and Summer Festival, making fireworks herself and participating in the design of fireworks patterns.

However, Akane's hands were different from Nel's. Although they were much larger, they were surprisingly softer...

Pingxin couldn't help but pinch it a few more times, looking like he was still not satisfied.

Ping Xin is looking forward to what kind of fireworks (dreams) such hands can create.

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Chapter 4000: Longing for Such Warmth ()

"Well, we'll say goodbye today..."

"Haha, come play again next time when you have time, little brother Pingxin!"

After bidding farewell to the famous Eastern fireworks master Yan Yu at 5 pm on time, Asuka Maheishin and Murokasa Akane set off for home in Suzuki's car.

Mr. Suzuki cleverly asked someone to pack up the maid outfit that Akane had changed into at the Sonic Music headquarters, saving her the trouble of making another trip. He's truly a considerate office worker at a large Eastern corporation.

"I wonder if you two had a good time today?" Suzuki asked the question while waiting for the red light.

Compared to when she was gone, Zhu Yin had obviously changed her clothes. There was still a faint blush on her face from the excitement, and her skin looked smooth and tender after taking a bath.

Zhu Yin's behavior now is even closer to Ping Xin than when she first came, as if she wanted to stick her whole body to him, forcing Ping Xin to look out the window and pretend nothing happened.

Although Mr. Suzuki appears calm on the surface, he is actually very upset.

Damn, why am I not a woman? I want to be a super fan too!

Ordinary letter:?

Something's wrong with you!

Although Hirayama was a little surprised by Murokasa Akane's intimate behavior, he accepted it calmly. After all, after an afternoon of hard work, the two of them had built a deep relationship of trust. After all, the two of them had spent the afternoon rubbing explosives with their hands and playing around.

In Heishin's eyes, this is just a "normal phenomenon" after the relationship becomes closer. After all, letting the explosion-loving (??) Akane rub dynamite with her hands is like letting Lai Dachu wear the suit of Consortium B, letting a giant robot fan drive a Gundam, and letting Char get U149's autograph (??). Who wouldn't bow down and worship?

Just like giving a little kid an unlimited supply of snacks, toys, and game consoles, this kind of "treating the disease with the right medicine" operation is very familiar to Ping Xin!

"Ah, Mr. Suzuki, are you curious about what we did today? Today's master was really rough, stuffing such a large amount all at once, and I screamed loudly when it finally exploded~"

Well, indeed.

Because Pingxin wanted to see the effect of this new type of gunpowder, he rolled a homemade grenade with his hands. When it exploded, the noise was so loud that it scared Zhu Yin.

But...why does it sound so weird coming out of your mouth?

"Ah...Is that so? You two really have a good time, hahaha——"

"Not only that, I said 'No~ No~', but the master still forcefully stuffed it into my (fireworks), and it finally bulged out~

Then, because I stuffed too much in there, it started to overflow uncontrollably. The director then threw me to the ground with a thud, and my clothes got all dirty.

What a little troublemaker!

No... although it is true——

Because he really wanted to do something big, but Master Yan Yu forbad him from making homemade grenades, Ping Xin used his "master authority" to forcibly add a large amount of gunpowder and metal powder for flame reaction to Zhu Yin's work.

In the end, due to a problem with the fuse setting, it didn't explode for a long time. When the two went to check, Ping Xin used the stand "World"'s super-human B-level precision to discover that the enhanced version of the fireworks was about to explode.

Therefore, Ping Xin hurriedly knocked Zhu Yin to the ground, and then both of them became dirty because of the smoke and dust brought by the explosion and the mud on the ground. Now the loose sportswear that Zhu Yin was wearing was actually the battle-damaged version of the replacement clothes that she had bought for free before.

But why does it feel weird when it comes from Zhu Yin's mouth? If I explain it this way, can Suzuki-san who is driving really understand it?

"Ah...Ahahaha..." Zhu Yin's words made Suzuki's blood pressure start to rise. He wanted to immediately soar to 120 miles per hour and start singing Winter Flower~

I can only say that this situation is really like a successful person jumping in front of a loser...

After seeing Suzuki off, Hirashin and Akane got off the bus at the entrance to the shopping district and walked home.

"In the end, I still let you accompany me to play for a whole day. I'm really sorry. I must have delayed your work, right?" Although she was not wearing a maid outfit, Murokasa Akane naturally entered the maid mode.

"What's the point of delaying it...I don't need to work anyway, right?"

"Then how do you usually get your income?" During the conversation in the large bathhouse on the first floor the previous night, everyone learned from his sister Asuka Matoki that Hiranobu is now the sole pillar of the family.

"...many companies don't actually need so much overhead and so many jobs, just like the unnecessary waste caused by humans' inadequate use of resources.

I just need to assign the right people to the right place at the right time. In fact, even this job can be done by others, and all I need to do is to specify the direction and make the final decision.

If I have to do everything, I will be exhausted to death, just like the emperors of Yan State in history.

The ultimate goal of work is to not work, Zhu Yin——"

Listening to Jun's words was like listening to a conversation. Murokasa Akane felt awe-inspiring and the only thing left in her mind was a superstitious feeling like "Master is indeed very powerful."

"Although I can't help with work matters, please leave the service when you are not working to me! It is because of the existence of the master that I (the maid) have the value of existence!"

"Oh...oh? Then you can discuss the appointment with Xiaoshi or Alpha."

Although Ping Xin didn't understand, he thought that professional (maid) matters should be left to professionals, and there was no reason for an outsider like him to get involved.

"Good morning, Hirayama, would you like some croquettes?"

When passing by Kitazawa Fine Butcher Shop, Kitazawa Ikumoto, who was sitting in the shop doing homework and watching the shop at the same time, greeted him with full of energy. By the way, why does being full of energy seem to be associated with not being very smart?

*In fact, you can greet people with "good morning" at any time in Dongguk.

"Good afternoon, Yumei. Do you want to come to my house for dinner tonight? I'll be having a study session with them."

He still can't forget his "guidance" skills, he really makes me cry!

"Is it okay?! But Ikumi isn't as cute as other kids..."

"Hmm? I don't know if being cute or not has any direct connection with whether or not you come to my house, but I think Yumei is very cute. I think you could be more confident!"

Although I personally prefer long hair, I simply think that type is more feminine...

"Hehehe~" Yumei smiled foolishly as Pingxin petted her head like a big dog.

"Also, don't give me so much every time. I've already received your affection as a gift, so next, as part of the currency exchange process, you have to accept my money as well—"

Pingxin suddenly tapped Yumei's forehead. The big stick and the sweet dates are the most primitive and effective educational methods.

Doing wrong things should be punished, and doing right things should be modeled and rewarded. This is the only way to cultivate healthy children.

"Wow~ It's Fukuzawa Yukichi (female)!"

* Fukuzawa Yukichi is the character on the 1 yen (Japanese Yen) banknote, but he appears to be a woman in this world...

"Please keep the extra money for me, and I'll just deduct it from it next time. Remember to send me a message if you want anything to eat. That's it, Ciao~"

After saying goodbye to Kitazawa Ikumi, Hirashin meets up with Yamabuki Saaya from Yamabuki Bakery, Wakamiya Eve who works part-time at Hanezawa Cafe, and Ichigaya Yusaki from Ryuseido. Hirashin invites them to his study session and evening game competition, and before he knows it, his house is bustling with activity...

Hirayuko originally wanted to let Murokasa Akane, who had taken the croquettes, bread, small ornaments, and cakes out of her maid's conscience, go home first, but because she insisted that "a maid should always be by the master's side", the two of them went to the old park together.

"It looks like a very... old park."

"Yeah, it's been here since I was in kindergarten. Every time I come here, I feel relaxed. Because I often feed cats here, many cats come here. If you like cats, Zhu Yin, you can come here when you have nothing to do... Hey——"

Pingxin climbed to the top of the climbing frame. The "mountain" that he had worked so hard to climb in his "dream" before was now completely vulnerable in front of him, and he climbed up in just three or two steps.

He took out the notebook from the waterproof bag from the shoulder bag hanging above, smiled after seeing her message, wrote the word "approved" with a red pen, and put it back. He then stuffed a few photos of Fukuzawa Yukichi in it before coming down.

As they approached the front door, Ping Xin asked Zhu Yin, "...Aren't you curious about what I did up there just now?"

"A maid's duty is to obey her master's orders, and everything she does is for her master..."

No, Zhu Yin, you're putting a lot of pressure on me when you say that!

"Anyway, my pen pal said he had movie tickets but didn't have enough money to go with his friends, so he came to me to ask for 'funding'."

“…Isn’t this a scam?”

"Who knows? Just think of it as me paying a few trolls to go to the movies. Such uncertainty is part of the fun of life~"

"Hehe...you are such a weirdo, you are worthy of being my master——"

No, are you praising me or insulting me? And I don't remember you swearing allegiance to me. So Akane is the type who takes cosplay seriously...

*Later, Heishin was shocked when he found out that Zhuyin was really working as a part-timer.

"We're back--" The moment Ping Xin opened the door, the sound waves from the living room came over.

"Wow... Why did you suddenly think of holding a mini concert in the living room? Did you know, Karin?"

Looking at the chaotic scene of the five members of Afterglow and Asuna singing karaoke together in the living room, and Nel competing with Xiaoxiao, Heishin asked the only common-sense person nearby, Kadotate Karin.

Although the other four people in Afterglow, except for Mitakeran, who for some reason had reconciled with her father but still ate white rice here every day, were called by Heishin, this scene was also beyond his expectations.

If you want to have a home KTV, why don’t you just do it normally? Why do you sing with the music of Mitakeran playing Taiko no Tatsujin as the background music?

*Taiko no Tatsujin, a classic music game from the East, the arcade version is just playing the drums with two drumsticks.

"At first, Asuna became interested in her because you, Hirashin, said that Mitakeran was the lead singer of a band and had great singing skills. Later, she even performed while singing and playing the guitar, and in the end, it became like this without her noticing." Karin also looked confused, but it was inexplicably reasonable for this kind of thing to happen to Asuna!

"I see... I think I understand—"

Even though I don't really understand anything...

Isn’t this good anyway?

Ping Xin gave up thinking.

"We have Kitazawa's croquettes and Yamabuki's bread, come and have some—"

"Little Mocha wants to eat bread~"

"Oh, Ping Xin is back too?"

"Brother Pingxin, I'm going to trouble you again this time."

"I want one too! Mmmmm... this is delicious!"

"Everyone has their share, so there's no need to rush. Seriously, it's like being a little kid..."

Pingxin patted Asuna on the back and poured her a cup of barley tea to relieve her greasiness. At this moment, he was shrouded in a fatherly aura!

I always feel that Pingxin will definitely spoil his children when he has them...

The same thought occurred to everyone present.

"Haha... since you have been playing for a whole day, isn't it time for some happy study time? Hurry up and bring us your monthly exam report cards!" Ping Xin's true intentions were finally revealed at this point. Whether it was providing a venue for the party or bringing delicious food, it was all just his "map of the State of Yan"!

The people who were fed well by Ping Xin could only helplessly be toyed with by the black-hearted innkeeper Ping Xin, just like pedestrians who were drugged.

Go to the living room and do the homework. Play with it 100 times! 100 times!

"Hmm... everyone is doing okay. You're probably above average in Shengxiang. In that case, besides internal promotion, you can definitely consider better high schools. Do you have plans for future college and employment? And..."

Wow, it's started——

At times like this, they nag even more than my parents at home...

Little Mocha, I'll take a nap first...
