"Doctor, are you leaving?"
The Nurse reached out and clutched Amamiya Natsuki's clothes, her face full of reluctance.
"I'll go back to work first." Amamiya Natsuki stroked the Nurse's head, saying softly, "When I'm off work and have time, I'll come visit Miss Sasaki."
Only then did the Nurse pitifully release his hand: "Doctor, you must come see me."
"Don't worry." Amamiya Natsuki raised his hand to swear, "I promise."
He definitely had to come back.
The title skill wasn't permanent; this Nurse might wake up at any time.
Besides, if he didn't come to rescue her, Juju would be furious.
After bidding farewell to the Nurse, Amamiya Natsuki turned and left the Hospital Ward.
A moment later.
At the main entrance of the Hospital Ward.
The figure of a twin-tailed loli maid quietly emerged from the shadows; it was Shinomiya Kaguya.
"Five minutes later than the agreed time... did you find anything?"
"Let's talk as we walk." Amamiya Natsuki nodded lightly and whispered, "I found Juju."
"Why didn't she come out with you?"
"She couldn't come out."
"..."
Amamiya Natsuki walked towards the restaurant, recounting Juju's situation.
"Escaped from the ward?" Shinomiya Kaguya murmured softly, "We need to discuss it carefully to avoid any accidents."
The two soon arrived near the artificial lake.
The Sheltered Ojou-sama suddenly slowed her steps, her pretty face slightly flushed, and she whispered:
"That mushroom... when will it detonate?"
"It has been quite some time indeed." Amamiya Natsuki stopped, looked down at the loli maid, and understanding the Sheltered Ojou-sama's little thoughts, asked, "How about we detonate it now?"
Why ask, of course, it's now!
After returning to the restaurant, with so many people around, and with something like a lust mushroom, what if it got out of control?
Such a shameful thing, absolutely not in front of everyone!
"I'm fine with anything." The Sheltered Ojou-sama turned her pretty face away, looking at the dark lake in the distance, and said in a casual tone, "As long as it's not too troublesome for you."
Amamiya Natsuki smiled: "Then back to the restaurant?"
"Stare—"
The twin-tailed loli maid looked up at his words, her pink cheeks puffing out involuntarily.
"It's too open here; someone might pass by." Amamiya Natsuki coughed twice, "If it gets out of control and exposes our identities, that would be troublesome."
Shinomiya Kaguya whispered:
"The light is already dim, and besides, couldn't that Cloak be used?"
"I accidentally forgot, just use the Cloak."
"..."
The two arrived at a pavilion by the lake, and Amamiya Natsuki took out the Cloak and put it on.
The light was already dim, and with the Shadow Cloak on, as long as he remained still, his presence would be exceptionally faint, almost undetectable.
"Come in."
Amamiya Natsuki whispered.
At the crucial moment, the Sheltered Ojou-sama's ear tips slightly flushed, and she turned her head, saying:
"I can stay outside."
"No, what if you're discovered outside?"
Amamiya Natsuki held the Sheltered Ojou-sama's right hand, pulling her to sit beside him with a slight tug.
The Cloak spread out, just enough to cover both their bodies.
The warmth emanating from Amamiya Natsuki's body caused Shinomiya Kaguya's heart to involuntarily race.
"Too close..."
The Sheltered Ojou-sama's ear tips were hot, and she turned her pretty face away, shifting her body slightly, indicating her desire to maintain distance.
It wasn't that she didn't refuse; it was just that the space was too small, and she was caught by the President, so she couldn't escape.
That's right, that's it!
"Let's be quick." Amamiya Natsuki whispered, "We can't take as long as last time; if we go back too late, everyone will worry."
Shinomiya Kaguya's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but recall what happened in the last instance, feeling dizzy, her palms slightly sweaty, her face burning hot, and her maidenly shame taking over, making her want to flee the situation, her voice trembling slightly as she whispered:
"N-no... let's go back to the restaurant first."
"No." Amamiya Natsuki said seriously, "Breaking your word is not a good habit."
"But I didn't promise you..."
Clap.
Amamiya Natsuki lightly snapped his fingers, detonating the mushroom above the Sheltered Ojou-sama's head.
A pink mist quietly dispersed, merging into her body and disappearing.
"Mmm..."
The Sheltered Ojou-sama couldn't help but tremble and let out a soft moan, her breathing suddenly becoming rapid, a moist mist quickly welling up in her beautiful wine-red eyes, her pink lips slightly parted, revealing two rows of white teeth like strung pearls.
(It feels... so uncomfortable...)
(No, I must endure it. How can I easily succumb to such a thing?)
(As long as my willpower is strong enough, I can surely endure it, right?)
Shinomiya Kaguya was actually very confident in her willpower.
She went to bed at 10 PM sharp every night, never staying up late.
She finished today's tasks today, never procrastinating until the next day.
However, when Amamiya Natsuki's hand reached her waist, Shinomiya Kaguya realized that her willpower was not strong at all; in fact, it instantly crumbled.
"En—!"
The warmth from the boy beside her permeated through her clothes and onto her skin, and the Sheltered Ojou-sama felt as if an electric current surged through her entire body, making her tremble lightly.
Driven by instinct, the Sheltered Ojou-sama involuntarily tilted her pretty face back and closed her eyes.
The next moment.
As the familiar burning brand came over, the Sheltered Ojou-sama dazedly raised her arms and wrapped them around Amamiya Natsuki's neck.
Several minutes later.
Looking at the Sheltered Ojou-sama, whose pretty face was flushed crimson, and whose breathing was rapid, almost gasping for air, Amamiya Natsuki whispered:
"Should I carry you back?"
Shinomiya Kaguya wiped the corner of her lips, feeling an astonishing heat on her face, as if it were burning like fire: "No, I can walk by myself."
Being carried in his arms like that, wouldn't people mistake them for a father and daughter?
No.
Absolutely not.
"You can't even get up anymore."
"...Taking advantage of others! Turn yourself in!"
"If we don't go back soon, everyone will be anxious."
Amamiya Natsuki held the Sheltered Ojou-sama's right hand, pulling the soft Miss backward.
Amamiya Natsuki only let go of Miss when they were close to the restaurant.
"I'm back."
Entering the restaurant, Amamiya Natsuki called out loudly.
In the darkness, the Senpai and others quickly appeared.
"Natsuki-kun, it's good that you're back."
Hayasaka Ai approached with small steps, her gaze sweeping over the Sheltered Ojou-sama, and she said crisply:
"Senpai, why are you two back so late? We were so worried."
"Something delayed us." Amamiya Natsuki looked at the long-haired Komi and nodded lightly, saying, "I found Juju."
"..."
Komi's eyes suddenly brightened, and she quickly stood on her tiptoes, peering behind Amamiya Natsuki.
Among everyone, she and Juju were from the same school and had the best relationship, so naturally, she was very worried after being separated for so long.
"Don't look." Amamiya Natsuki said, "She's still in the ward; I couldn't bring her out, but there's no need to worry about her safety."
Immediately after, Amamiya Natsuki recounted his encounter with Juju: "That's the situation. It's a bit difficult to bring Juju out."
"It does sound a bit troublesome." Hayasaka Ai clasped her hands behind her back, "We can discuss the rescue plan later, Senpai, quickly detonate the mushrooms above our heads."
Amamiya Natsuki nodded and asked:
"Did you find Marin and Chika?"
"No." Koyasu Tsubame's face flashed with a hint of shame, her teeth gently biting her pink lips, "No one has found them for so long. I'm sorry, Natsuki-kun, for disappointing you."
"Senpai, there's no need to apologize." Hayasaka Ai raised her hand and pointed to herself, "Look at me, I also haven't found anyone. There are still so many places in the Hospital that haven't been searched. Finding them is luck; not finding them is also normal."
"My Senpai won't easily get discouraged."
Amamiya Natsuki extended his right hand, touched the Senpai's head, and then detonated the mushrooms above the Senpai and Hayasaka's heads.
"Stare—"
Hayasaka Ai put her hands on her hips and glared angrily: "Senpai, you touched another girl's head in front of me. You really want to experience what it's like to be executed by dogs, don't you?"
Just touching her head would lead to execution by dogs; if you knew what I just did to the Sheltered Ojou-sama, wouldn't I be subjected to death by a thousand cuts!
Amamiya Natsuki silently raised his hands and quickly retreated.
It is well known that when girls are angry, they never reason.
After the anger mushroom detonates, even breathing is wrong; at such a time, stay as far away as possible.
"I'll go check the kitchen."
Amamiya Natsuki turned and walked towards the back kitchen. The previously dirty and messy kitchen was now clean, looking much more comfortable.
"Natsuki Senpai." Yui had already transformed into a cook, wearing an apron around her waist, her mental state having recovered, and she said crisply, "Komi and I cut a lot of chives."
Amamiya Natsuki looked towards the counter, where there was indeed a pile of green chives, truly natural, green, and pollution-free, without any pesticide residue.
"You worked hard." Amamiya Natsuki praised, "The chives still need to be cut; they look like a lot, but they'll be gone in one meal."
"I understand." Yui quickly nodded, and asked curiously, "Natsuki Senpai, can humans eat these chives too?"
"...You got me there."
Amamiya Natsuki thought for a moment, picked up a chive, brought it to his mouth, and prepared to experience it himself.
"Eh? Eh?"
Yui widened her eyes and quickly stepped forward to stop him, "Natsuki Senpai, don't eat it! What if it makes you sick?"
She was the one who asked if it could be eaten; if Natsuki Senpai got a stomachache, everyone would definitely dislike her.
"It won't come to that." Amamiya Natsuki said, "My body isn't that fragile."
"These are raw chives."
"Raw chives can also be eaten."
"Eh?" Yui was startled, "Raw can be eaten?"
"Of course, they can." Amamiya Natsuki said, "Ancients could eat grass roots and tree bark. Eating raw chives is definitely no problem. In fact, I've heard of eating raw mixed chives."
"...I'll eat it!"
To prevent Amamiya Natsuki from "testing the poison" himself, Yui took a deep breath, quickly stepped forward, and took a big bite of the chive in Amamiya Natsuki's hand.
Thud.
A muffled impact sound came from the doorway.
Amamiya Natsuki turned his head and saw Komi standing at the door, her eyes wide with surprise.
"Cough, cough, cough." Yui immediately started coughing, her face flushed, and she quickly said, "Komi, let me explain… cough, cough."
Raw chives, they actually taste a bit spicy, such a strange flavor.
"You've already seen it, what's there to explain?" Amamiya Natsuki turned and walked to Komi's side, looking directly at the little white rabbit girl, "That's right, I'm bullying people."
"…"
Komi blinked, pursed her pink lips, then gently shook her head, picked up her notebook, and wrote:
"Natsuki-kun is not that kind of person."
"You're wrong, I'm someone who takes advantage of others and bullies the weak." Amamiya Natsuki looked down, "Are you scared? Do you know what to do now?"
Komi's lips curved slightly:
"I'm not afraid."
You actually dare to say you're not afraid, your guts have really grown!
"I feel provoked." Amamiya Natsuki extended his right hand, "I'm going to bully you."
Komi gently dodged, holding up her notebook: "Everyone is fine now, they called you back to discuss the action plan to rescue Juju."
At this moment, the unlucky Yui also recovered her breath and quickly explained:
"I just asked if chives could be eaten raw, Natsuki Senpai wanted to try it, and I was worried he would get sick, so I snatched them away… That's how it is, Komi, don't misunderstand."
"I believe you." In front of outsiders, Komi still refused to speak, only holding her notebook in front of her, covering her nose and mouth, with only her eyes exposed, "Natsuki-kun wouldn't bully the weak."
I'm sorry to disappoint you.
Bullying the weak is actually really fun.
"Let's go, to the front."
Amamiya Natsuki greeted them and left the kitchen.
Juju is still eagerly waiting in the Hospital Ward, they need to find a way to get her out first.
"Natsuki-kun, you're back?" Tsubame-senpai turned and called out, "Come and sit."
Amamiya Natsuki walked to the table and sat down, "Are those two chefs behaving normally?"
"No." Hayasaka Ai had calmed down, "We used chains specifically to ensure they couldn't break free."
Amamiya Natsuki interlaced his fingers and propped up his chin: "Suddenly I feel like we're running a shady establishment."
"Senpai, don't talk nonsense." Hayasaka Ai glared at him, "We're clearly usurping the nest."
"That…" Koyasu Tsubame coughed lightly, "Usurping the nest isn't exactly a good term either."
"There are two urgent matters." Amamiya Natsuki sat up straight, "The first is to find Marin and Chika, and the second is to rescue Juju. Let's discuss how to get Juju out first, then continue our actions."
Shinomiya Kaguya crossed her arms over her chest, finally calm, and softly said:
"As for a method, I've already thought of one…"
The discussion concluded.
After discussing the details, everyone started to act again.
Komi and Yui remained in the restaurant, several girls continued to search for Marin and Chika, and Amamiya Natsuki went to the Hospital Ward alone.
He skillfully arrived at the hallway leading to the critical care unit, where Miss Sasaki, the red-eyed Nurse, was still on duty.
"Miss Sasaki, I've come to see you."
Amamiya Natsuki greeted her and handed her a rose.
"Thank you, Doctor!"
The Nurse took the flower with a look of pleasant surprise.
Girls are naturally fond of flowers; giving flowers is definitely the right choice.
Girls who are unwilling to accept flowers don't dislike flowers, but rather dislike you.
"I left something in Miss Hachishakusama's room just now." Amamiya Natsuki requested, "Miss Sasaki, please let me use the back door again."
