Chapter 380: Jashin-chan Blackmailed a Belly Full of Anger!
The halos of neon lights silently spread in the night, scarlet, spectral blue, warm yellow, and charming purple, intertwining and permeating the humid air, flowing on the glass curtain walls of Charm Capital.
Two cars, one behind the other, passed through the colorful night, driving towards the restaurant booked by Medusa.
In Yusa's car—
"This car?"
Sitting in the passenger seat, a faint and elegant car fragrance lingered at Ryohei's nose. He looked around the car's obviously feminine decorations and looked at Yusa with slight curiosity.
"My cousin lent it to me for transportation."
Yusa's gaze was fixed on the road ahead, her hands on the steering wheel, her back naturally straight.
The spotless white chef's uniform perfectly outlined the curves of her full chest and hips, revealing a unique kind of beauty.
"The cousin who runs the dessert shop?"
"Yes."
"Wah—!"
Ryohei suddenly covered his chest and wailed exaggeratedly, putting on a worried look:
"My capable assistant won't be poached away, right?"
"It's possible." The corners of Yusa's lips curled up slightly, her eyes flowing with a bit of playfulness, and she chuckled while looking at Ryohei: "The conditions my cousin offered are quite tempting."
"Looks like I need to improve your treatment." Ryohei crossed his arms, leaned back in the seat, and assumed a contemplative posture.
Actually, he had this thought long ago...
"..."
In the back seat, Koji listened to the conversation in the front row cheerfully, her eyes shining.
If her sister's treatment improved, she would presumably also be able to mooch some benefits...
( ´ ▽ ` )
Happy~!
"..."
After a while, Yusa turned her head and glanced at Ryohei, chuckling: "Why no follow-up? Could it be you're just painting a pie (making empty promises) to motivate me?"
"Why would you think that?"
Ryohei looked at her in surprise and said innocently: "Just still considering in what aspects to improve your treatment!"
"Alright then."
Yusa's gaze returned to the front. She pursed her lips, a trace of expectation flashing in her eyes, and said in a soft voice: "Then consider it carefully; I'm not in a hurry."
"Mn."
"..."
In the other car—
"I dare guarantee that Servant and Yusa definitely have something going on! Otherwise, why would he take Yusa's car for no reason!"
Jashin-chan, who got a peaked cap from somewhere, holding an unlit pipe between her fingers, and with a dark plaid shawl on her shoulders, assumed a detective's posture and asserted confidently.
"Is it possible that because they haven't seen each other for a while, they want to chat on the way?" Lucoa and Pekola sat side by side in the back seat, casually covering for Ryohei.
"Why are you speaking for him?"
( ﹁ ﹁ )
Jashin-chan glanced sideways at the rearview mirror and looked at Lucoa through it: "Didn't they chat enough in the shop just now? I don't believe it!"
"That guy... is obviously addicted to eating 'grass by the nest' (people close to him)!" Jashin-chan glanced at Pekola beside Lucoa, Minos' figure flashing through her mind, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"That's right!"
Pekola chimed in seriously, agreeing with Jashin-chan's words.
"Right?"
Jashin-chan rarely found herself sharing a common language with Pekola.
"Speaking of which, this is a good opportunity!"
Not knowing what she thought of, Jashin-chan's mouth corner raised exaggeratedly, her two big eyes curving slyly into crescents, revealing a malicious smile.
She took out her phone from her snakeskin pocket and chuckled: "I'm going to blackmail him!"
"...This twist is so sudden!"
Lucoa endured it but finally couldn't hold back and complained, though she felt this was very Jashin-chan style.
Thinking about it, she didn't stop her either, hugging her ample bosom and watching the show from the back row.
"..."
On the other side—
Ryohei felt the phone in his pocket vibrate. He thought it was from Yurine, but when he took it out, it was actually a message from Jashin-chan—
[Jashin-chan]: "Servant, you don't want Yurine to know about you and Yusa, right? ξ( ✿＞◡❛)."
"..." Ryohei's mouth twitched slightly, and he replied casually:
[Ryohei]: "I don't know what you're talking about."
The other party is typing...
[Jashin-chan]: "It doesn't matter if you don't know. As long as you give me 1 million Yen, I'll keep my mouth shut very well. (￣y▽￣)~* covering mouth and snickering."
You bastard...!
Ryohei felt this guy needed a beating. Luckily she wasn't around, or he might not be able to resist fixing her.
Ryohei edited the message with a slight guilty conscience—
[Ryohei]: "Okay, okay, okay—! Extortion and blackmail on me! Just wait to be sanctioned! (ง ͠ ᵒ̌ Дᵒ̌)¤=[]:::::＞."
"..."
Jashin-chan's side—
"This bastard refuses to admit it even unto death and says he'll sanction me!"
Jashin-chan was very unhappy and edited a message—
[Jashin-chan]: "Then wait to be sanctioned by Yurine!"
The other party is typing...
[Ryohei]: "Then I'll just confess to Yurine—saying that we actually have something going on too! (つω`｡)"
"..." Jashin-chan stared at the phone screen, her eyes wide round.
How do you have the nerve!?
[Jashin-chan]: "Aren't you ruining me? Bastard!"
[Jashin-chan]: "Chotto matte! You wouldn't happen to... towards me... Σ(°△°|||)︴"
A dozen seconds later—
[Ryohei]: "I've said it long ago, humans won't have desires for snakes. Except for perverts, and I happen not to be one. (＾◡＾)"
"@#￥%&*+/..."
Jashin-chan held down the voice message button and spewed profanities.
Lucoa waited for her to put down the phone and said with a smile: "Did you succeed in blackmailing?"
"Blackmailed a belly full of anger!" Jashin-chan answered grumpily.
Making Lucoa and Pekola smile uncontrollably.
"..."
Inside the other car—
"..." Ryohei looked at the voice message sent by Jashin-chan and didn't click it at all—didn't need to think to know there wouldn't be any good words!
"Who are you chatting so happily with?"
Yusa turned her head and glanced at Ryohei, her tone carrying a bit of curiosity.
"With Jashin-chan."
Ryohei put away his phone and chuckled: "She tried to blackmail me just now and was pissed off half to death by me."
"Then she deserved it!"
Yusa was a bit surprised and criticized Jashin-chan without thinking.
