Afraid of being discovered, Jodie struggled to stand up, discreetly pressing Akashi's head down to conceal the situation.
She was still wearing her red coat, her back turned toward Takagi.
Naturally, the unsuspecting officer, with his usual clueless demeanor, didn't notice anything unusual.
Meanwhile, Akashi was in deep trouble.
His face—completely smothered by her boob!
I-can't-breathe!
I-can't-breathe!
His entire world was enveloped in softness, drowning him in an intoxicating scent, yet not a single trace of oxygen!
Instinctively, his right hand shot up—
And it landed.
Full palm contact.
Critical hit!
Jodie's legs trembled. She nearly collapsed again.
Her back still turned toward Takagi, the American agent didn't dare to risk stepping on her broken high heel.
Instead, she awkwardly tiptoed forward, her posture stiff—
Like a sideways-crab scuttling across the floor!
She made her way toward the next room, leaving Takagi utterly baffled.
The next moment, Jodie took a deep breath, her fair cheeks flushed red, and her green eyes widened behind her black-rimmed glasses.
This kid!
Akashi, completely trapped, had no other choice—
He had to retaliate.
『Flexible Tongue』, activate!
Jodie, caught completely off guard, nearly buckled on the spot.
It was unbearable!
But there was no way she could let herself lose composure in front of the Nihongo police.
Gritting her teeth, she held on, dragging Akashi toward the next room.
Still refusing to let go?!
The little shota, who truly couldn't take another breath, didn't hesitate any longer.
He opened his mouth—
And bit down!
A small but distinct tooth mark appeared on the soft skin.
Critical hit!
The sudden attack, combined with an unexpected critical strike bonus, nearly made Jodie collapse for the third time.
Using the last of her strength, she stumbled forward, shoved open the nearest door, and rushed inside—
Slamming the door shut behind her!
Meanwhile, Takagi scratched his head in confusion before shrugging and walking back toward the living room.
At that moment, Ran stepped out, looking puzzled.
"Officer Takagi, have you seen Akashi?" she asked.
Takagi blinked. "Akashi? You mean that cute kid? Nope, haven't seen him."
"That's strange… He was just here."
A frown formed on Ran's face as she glanced around.
Thinking he might have left, she turned toward the entrance and began changing her shoes.
Just then, Sonoko walked in from outside.
"Sonoko, did you see Akashi?"
Sonoko blinked. "Nope! Wasn't he inside? You just came in—how could he have left already?"
Having finally calmed herself down, Sonoko played it cool, pretending nothing was out of the ordinary.
Women truly are born actors.
Even the usually carefree Sonoko was no exception.
Hearing this, Ran exchanged a glance with her friend before the two of them turned back inside to continue their search.
Elsewhere, in the dimly lit bathroom—
A disheveled young Akashi, who had finally escaped from the grasp of the eight-foot lady, was desperately gulping for air.
Both hands braced against the sink, he wheezed, "Jodie-sensei… I almost suffocated!"
Jodie, slumped against the door, was in no better condition.
Her red lips were slightly parted, her breath uneven as she struggled to recover.
Behind her black-rimmed glasses, her green eyes stared at the child in front of her in pure disbelief.
Just like Sonoko earlier—
She found herself questioning everything about her life.
What just happened?!
What is wrong with my body?!
And most importantly—
What is up with this child?!
Jodie couldn't hold back and scolded, "You little troublemaker! You're such a bad boy at your age!"
Akashi pouted. "Bad boy? It was you who ran into me! How is this my fault?"
Jodie raised an eyebrow. "And what about now?"
She glanced at Akashi's small hand, which was still pressed against her chest.
"Oh—sorry, sorry! Habit, I guess."
Only then did Akashi finally let go.
For some reason, Jodie felt a tiny pang of disappointment.
Just then, a voice called out from outside.
"Akashi! Akashi! Where are you?"
It was Ran, searching for him.
"This isn't our house, you can't just run off on your own!"
"Akashi!"
Hearing this, Akashi quickly signaled for silence, placing his index finger against Jodie's soft red lips as he listened intently to the approaching footsteps.
Damn, they're coming this way!
But before he could react—
He felt something warm and wet on his finger.
What the—?!
His eyes widened.
Jodie had unconsciously… taken his finger into her mouth!
No way! The charm of the succubus shota is too strong?!
That fleeting warmth sent a shiver down her spine, and in her moment of mental weakness, she had instinctively acted without thinking.
Akashi stared at the FBI agent, completely stunned.
Jodie, snapping back to reality, immediately realized what she had just done.
Her face turned crimson.
What is happening to me?!
The air grew tense.
For a brief moment, the two just stared at each other.
Then, rather than acknowledge her mistake, Jodie's embarrassment turned into aggression.
"Oh? So you're allowed to bite me, but I can't bite you back?"
With that, she leaned in and lightly bit Akashi's index finger.
It was meant to be a harmless act of retaliation—
But it shouldn't have happened.
Not like this.
Not on that finger.
Akashi's 『God's Right Hand』—the one that had just been upgraded to Lv3!
『God's Right Hand』: By using your right hand to touch a sensitive area of the opposite sex, there is a high probability of triggering a critical hit, entering God's Domain. Even touching an ordinary area has a small probability of triggering a critical hit. Unlimited critical combos may occur, leading to extreme results. A top-tier dehydration skill!]
And once bitten, it counted as "touching a sensitive area" in skill activation terms.
Akashi's face paled.
Oh no.
It's too late!
The infinite critical hit combo had been triggered!
"!!!"
Jodie, the blonde-haired, green-eyed American agent, stiffened.
Her limbs trembled uncontrollably.
A wave of paralysis shot through her body.
It felt like she had been electrocuted!
Her entire frame began to shake violently.
How could a woman like her withstand such a chain reaction of critical strikes?!
A soft, almost whimpering sound was about to escape her lips.
No way!
They couldn't let her make a sound!
Thinking quickly, Akashi lunged forward—
And covered her mouth with his!
Instant silence.
Jodie's body was still twitching, but at least she wasn't making any noise.
Akashi yanked his finger free, but the skill was already in full effect.
Jodie lay collapsed on the floor, her entire body trembling as if someone had just flipped her "off switch."
Meanwhile, the voices outside were growing louder.
"Akashi! Akashi!"
They were getting too close!
There was no time to think.
In a panic, Akashi grabbed a tissue from the counter and stuffed it into Jodie's mouth—
Completely silencing her.
Then, without sparing her another glance, he took a deep breath, composed himself, and put on his most innocent face as he jumped from the sink.
By the time the door opened, he stepped out as if nothing had happened.
"Sister Ran, Sister Sonoko! Why are you calling for me so much? I was just using the toilet."
Ran sighed. "Akashi, this is someone else's house. You need to tell us before you go anywhere, okay? You can't just wander off alone."
Sonoko giggled. "Aww, Ran, I think you just want to stay close to him all day!"
The conversation continued outside—
But for Jodie, lying on the cold bathroom floor, that world felt impossibly distant.
Her mind was still blank.
Her body still refused to move.
Her fists clenched as she struggled to regain control.
And behind her black-rimmed glasses, hot tears welled up in her dazed, green eyes.
What… just… happened?!
