"The bug with Nissho Taro's favorability hasn't been fixed yet?"
From the very beginning, Harumizu felt that Nissho Taro's favorability towards him was a bit too easily gained.
He even thought it was a small bug at the time.
How could anyone's favorability increase so rapidly just from a few words of encouragement and concern?
After verifying it again today,
Harumizu silently made a resolution in his heart:
"I must be a qualified Big Brother."
What Harumizu didn't expect was that this unexpected "visit" also resolved a knot in his heart.
Although Taro's favorability increased quickly and reached a high level,
Harumizu had never experienced such a storyline.
Especially after seeing various dialogue scenes in "Sichuan Opera" in his previous life, where the relationship between two brothers became extraordinary,
and one would whisper into the other's ear, "Brother, you smell so good~"
Just thinking about it now still gives him goosebumps.
Updating is not easy, remember to share 101kanshu.com.
He absolutely could not allow such a situation to happen to him.
However, today's unexpected discovery
completely allowed Harumizu to let go of the big stone in his heart.
He truly hadn't expected that the reason Risho, who was surrounded by Japan's top beauties every day, never had any improper thoughts was actually "keeping a mistress,"
and not just one, but two Plus-sized "hot female soldiers."
"Husband~ Who's there?"
A clumsy Japanese with a Russian accent came from inside the room.
Nissho Taro was still immersed in his emotions,
but he was interrupted by this sudden concern!
Harumizu rarely saw someone "redden" completely,
but clearly,
Taro met that condition!
From his chin to his crown,
Nissho Taro's skin visibly reddened.
But he still responded calmly, "It's my superior, Harumizu-sama. You don't need to come out; just stay in the room."
Harumizu looked at Taro with a smiling face, constantly raising his eyebrows and saying:
"It's fine, I'll just wait outside! Important matters first!"
"I didn't expect you, kid, to have such good fortune with women. You always seem so honest, but secretly you're playing such a game!"
Watching Harumizu constantly tease him, Nissho Taro's face flushed, and he didn't know what to say, only repeatedly replying:
"No, no! I found them outside, found them outside!"
At the same time, he stopped Harumizu, who was about to get up.
Looking at the "reddened" Taro, Harumizu suddenly remembered the purpose of his visit.
He took the opportunity of Nissho Taro leaning in to whisper a few words to him:
"..."
"Nissho Taro's favorability towards Host +1"
"Nissho Taro's Favorability: 97/100"
Since Harumizu entered the room until now,
Taro's temperature had not gone down.
Not to mention that the usually serious Harumizu would even "offer advice and strategies" to him,
this was an even greater subversion of Harumizu's image.
Now Taro also felt that Harumizu-sama had changed.
The former Fujiwara Shunsui was a stern-faced, unsmiling man,
and also a battle god of the Association/Club who would resort to fists at the slightest disagreement.
He would never meddle in such private life issues,
everything was centered around the Association/Club's interests.
Even when he was with Kojou Yuna and the other two,
he rarely saw Harumizu smile.
The previous few meetings were all "work scenarios."
Whether it was his decisive action in the private room for his sake,
or later going to the hotel to rescue Miya Harukiko,
these all seemed like things Harumizu's character would do:
decisive, ruthless, and regardless of consequences.
But the former Fujiwara Shunsui would never have come to his door to find him, as he did today,
or even joke with him.
This also made Nissho Taro truly realize the change in the man before him for the first time.
Seeing this system prompt, Harumizu's heart was even more delighted.
His purpose for coming today was to find a way to raise Taro's favorability towards him to 100.
Although no [Event] was triggered,
as long as he maintained his concern and praise for Taro,
Harumizu believed that 100 favorability points were just around the corner!
As for why increasing favorability with Taro was so simple,
he could only wait to discover it later!
"Are you really here to thank me today?"
Nissho Taro still didn't quite believe that Fujiwara Shunsui would come to see him for such a small matter,
and he quietly asked after his "temperature" had slightly subsided.
"Yes, Taro!"
Harumizu responded decisively.
At this moment, Harumizu felt that sometimes talking to men, especially men who admired him,
was really easy.
Just simple praise and affirmation could gain the greatest resonance from the other party.
A minute later,
the atmosphere between the two became a bit awkward,
because two men in the living room really didn't know what to say.
Looking at the intimacy that was only 3 points away from being full,
Harumizu felt that he had no more words to praise Taro,
because he was also worried that forced praise might have a counterproductive effect.
Just as Harumizu decided to make a quick exit,
and no longer disturb Nissho Taro's pleasant afternoon,
the mission appeared!
"system prompt"
"Sudden Mission: Nissho Taro's Danger"
"Detected that Host's friend Nissho Taro may face danger next. Host, please protect him as much as possible! Gain temporary skill: Combat Mastery!"
It appeared again.
Since the love mission with Kiko was triggered, Harumizu found that
these system prompts were appearing more and more frequently,
and even some things he didn't understand appeared.
Let's not even talk about what [Exclusive Skill] is,
why doesn't "Nissho Taro's Danger" prompt him whether he can accept it?
And there's no mission reward!
The most crucial thing is,
what the hell is this [Temporary Skill: Combat Mastery]?
He just wanted to fall in love and collect rent!
Fighting, cool! It's not impossible,
but not fighting and being cool in this kind of situation!
He wanted to fight opponents of equal strength like Kiko-chan,
not some "dangerous event!"
But is this the benefit of high intimacy?
Being able to predict events in advance!
And there's even a [Temporary Skill] when dealing with events!
The system prompt had just finished,
when the doorbell outside rang again.
"It's really strange today; usually no one comes to bother me."
Nissho Taro was a bit puzzled in his heart. Although he was very grateful for Harumizu-sama's special visit and 慰問,
what he didn't expect even more was that someone else would come and ring his doorbell.
He gestured to Harumizu to open the door.
After opening the door, he found four burly foreign men,
whose height and build were definitely comparable to, if not exceeding, Harumizu's.
Taro looked at the four menacing individuals and asked:
"You, who are you looking for?"
At this moment, Harumizu had already appeared behind Risho.
The scene after opening the door directly shocked Harumizu:
"Good heavens, four foreigners!"
The leader of the group responded impolitely:
"My wife is inside, you're looking for death!"
After saying that,
the leading man directly pulled out a sharp dagger from behind him and fiercely stabbed towards Nissho Taro.
"system prompt"
"You have triggered passive skill: Combat Mastery."
In a flash of lightning,
Risho only felt someone fiercely pull him from behind,
and then Harumizu lifted his foot and kicked towards the man's wrist.
His wrist stung,
and the dagger rolled to the ground.
The man glared at Harumizu fiercely,
then glanced at the three behind him:
"Take them all out!"
A moment of panic had already made Taro understand what was happening:
"Damn it, I've been set up!"
Clearly, someone knew Taro's preferences and deliberately set him up!
But now there was no time to think about extra things.
If it weren't for the system prompt,
and Harumizu not following behind Taro,
in this confined space,
facing such a sudden attack,
Taro would surely have been lying in a pool of blood.
Both of them had, after all, experienced training from the lower ranks of the Association/Club; licking blood from a knife's edge was once their daily routine.
It's just that now the Association/Club has become increasingly formalized,
and such "vicious" incidents rarely occur anymore.
In the Japanese yakuza world, there are some unwritten rules:
unless there's deep-seated hatred, generally, people are not killed.
The four strong men entered one after another from the door. Nissho Taro had just stabilized himself when he saw the four already inside the house, and Harumizu, once again like a war god, stood in front of him.
Without warning, the leading man picked up the fallen dagger and lunged at Harumizu again.
Harumizu moved,
lowered his body, turned sideways, and threw a punch!
With just one punch, he struck the first man's ribs.
Accompanied by a dull thud,
"Thump—!"
The man lay on the ground, as if all his strength had left him,
and without even a proper scream,
he curled up and rolled on the ground, only able to emit painful "gurgling" sounds from his throat!
The three behind seemed to have their bloodlust ignited by this scene,
like runaway wild bulls, they disregarded the crowding and charged again.
In the cramped space, four huge men completely blocked the doorway,
not to mention Taro, who had gotten up and wanted to go forward to help Harumizu,
couldn't even squeeze through.
It was precisely this topographical advantage that greatly suppressed the opponent's numerical advantage;
they hindered each other, making it difficult to maneuver.
The four men almost filled the entire entryway,
even breathing in this cramped space felt exceptionally heavy.
Harumizu's back was pressed against the wall.
The man in front threw a punch, aiming directly at his face.
He dodged by turning his head, and the fist almost grazed his earlobe as it slammed into the wall.
Almost simultaneously, the other two attacked.
Harumizu repeated his move, ducking down, turning sideways, and delivering a powerful front kick.
His movements were as fluid as if he had rehearsed them countless times in his mind.
"Crack!"
A clear, bone-chilling sound of bone cracking rang out.
The burly man's massive body instantly lost balance,
and he writhed on the ground, clutching his leg which was twisted at an unnatural angle,
his wails filling the small entryway.
At the same time,
Harumizu quickly punched one man in the Adam's apple.
The man hit in the Adam's apple instantly turned red in the face,
clutching his neck and falling to his knees.
Instead, the man who had thrown the first punch among the three stood before Harumizu unharmed,
originally intending to attack again,
but was stunned by the scene before him.
Ten seconds,
or perhaps even shorter.
Harumizu took care of three people in one go.
Although there was still one left,
from the man's trembling legs like a sieve and his unfocused eyes,
he already knew the opponent had no fighting power left!
This scene was unexpected even for Taro.
"Too strong, Harumizu-sama is simply too strong! Is this his purpose for being away from Tokyo?"
In Risho's understanding, it wasn't a difficult task for Harumizu to deal with the four people in front of him,
but in this environment, he still needed to be extremely careful.
However, Harumizu's "combat" performance now no longer resembled that of a yakuza thug,
but more like a "super special forces soldier" who had undergone systematic training:
simple, fast, and effective!
The last man, seeing the three who came with him now lying on the ground wailing in pain,
actually started begging for mercy directly:
"Don't hit me, please don't hit me! You're a devil! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
Harumizu also hadn't expected that he could perform so effortlessly when facing four burly men "blocking the door."
He looked down at his hands,
and confirmed it repeatedly, somewhat disbelievingly,
because this was more like an instinctive physical reaction,
and he didn't know why,
even his subconscious fear was replaced by this instinct.
A thought appeared in Harumizu's mind:
"Isn't this a cheat?"
"system prompt"
"Sudden Mission: Nissho Taro's Danger"
"Congratulations, Host, for completing the sudden mission and protecting Nissho Taro's safety, with no unexpected incidents!"
Watching the system prompt gradually disappear,
Harumizu kept waiting.
But this scene seemed particularly out of place to Taro.
"Why did Harumizu-sama suddenly stop moving? Is he injured?"
Thinking of this, Nissho Taro immediately ran forward,
holding the baseball bat he had just fumbled for,
he stepped forward, raised the baseball bat, and shouted at the remaining man:
"Bastard! Kneel! Or your fate will be the same as theirs!"
The last black man had no thought of resisting at all.
He clasped his hands over his head and knelt firmly in front of the two,
even very thoughtfully pressing his head to the ground.
"Harumizu-sama, are you alright!"
"Are you hurt anywhere?"
"Do you need to be sent to the hospital?"
Seeing Harumizu standing in front of him with his eyes tightly closed and not responding,
Taro became even more anxious,
and shook Harumizu twice forcefully!
"Harumizu-sama! Are you alright?"
It was these two shakes that pulled Harumizu back to reality.
Harumizu happened to see the anxious Taro and responded, "It's nothing, it's nothing!"
Then he sat down where he was,
feeling incredibly depressed.
Although the appearance of the [Temporary Skill] surprised and excited Harumizu,
this system was too much of a scam, wasn't it?
Completing the [Sudden Mission] actually had no mission reward!
This filled Harumizu's heart with disappointment.
The most important thing was,
even a [Temporary Skill] had caused a drastic change in his combat ability,
so what would happen with the [Exclusive Skill] at the bottom of his character attribute panel?
This filled Harumizu's heart with great anticipation,
and also made him repeatedly confirm that this mission had no mission reward!
The most crucial thing was,
Harumizu saw his [Free Attribute Points: 5],
this attribute point could have been [10],
but at the time, he was too worried about Kiko's safety,
so he raised his [Intelligence] to 7 in one go.
Otherwise, now he would only be 15 points away from unlocking the [Exclusive Skill].
It was truly regrettable... More than an hour later,
the Sankou-gumi people finally took care of the "trash" at Risho's house.
Kojou Yuna also arrived at the scene,
after all, she was best at cleaning up messes for Association/Club members.
Of course,
the details of Nissho Taro calling two Russian girls,
and then being found by four foreigners, were also clarified,
and she occasionally cast disdainful glances at Taro!
However, what Kojou Yuna didn't expect was:
"Why is Shunsui-kun always at the scene no matter what happens!"
"These Russian girls wouldn't be Shunsui-kun's doing, would they?"
Harumizu didn't know what Ojo was thinking,
but it was at this moment,
the system prompt appeared!
"system prompt"
