Chapter 289: Life Needs Some Corny Plot Sometimes!
"That makes sense. After all, there are three of them." After pondering for a moment, Matsudaira nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
After Sogo nodded, he turned to leave. Kawaki did the same. However, the two of them looked at each other and smiled quietly.
...
In the convenience store. Toshiro stood in front of the bookshelf near the entrance. He casually picked up a Jump magazine and flipped through it. Of course, all of this was a disguise. The purpose was to eavesdrop on the conversation between Kuriko and the three employees at the front desk.
"Kuriko-chan, what are you doing during your rest day?" The boy with glasses asked Kuriko, who had just finished helping the customer settle the bill. Then, he took out two movie tickets from behind him, "I happen to have two limited edition movie tickets for "Actually, I have two limited edition movie tickets for "My Neighbor Pedro 2: Rodriguez's Day Off..."
Seeing this, another red Mohawk hair clerk with earrings quickly stepped forward and interrupted, "Kuriko-chan, I happen to be in a band called Spaceship Earth. We're going to have a concert soon!"
The last boy with a yellow-brown plane head (bread head?) stepped forward to show his hospitality, not to be outdone, "Kuriko-chan, does Kuriko-chan like going for rides? I'll take you out to the bay in my 750!"
Glasses, "Don't poke your nose into this!"
Mohawk, "You're the one who shouldn't poke your nose!"
Plane Head, "The two of you, don't cause trouble for Kuriko!"
Glasses, "What do you mean by causing trouble?!"
Plan Head, "Causing trouble is causing trouble!"
Mohawk, "All of you shut up!"
...
As for Kuriko, she was all smiles from beginning to end and did not say a word.
Listening to the quarrel between the boys, Toshiro glanced at Kuriko, who chose to ignore these boys. He had already concluded in his heart that this daughter did not take them as her targets. That stupid [Money Shape Police Inspector] old man is really a headache.
(Money Shape Police Inspector: This refers to Matsudaira which is based on Lupin III, Inspector Koichi Zenigata.)
In the distance, Matsudaira and Kondo, who were staring at Toshiro's every move through the scope, were a little impatient.
"It seemed to be only reading Jump and had no intention to move at all," Kondo said.
"What is he doing?" Matsudaira said impatiently.
"Oh! There is action!" Kondo suddenly shouted.
"You're so long-winded! He just turned the page! It really makes people angry!" Matsudaira said angrily, "Well, those two kids are almost there. Just leave it to the two of them."
...
In the convenience store. Looking at Toshiro's side profile, who had been standing in front of the bookshelf and reading Jump, Kuriko suddenly felt that this person was somewhat familiar. She said to herself, "Ah... the person in front of the bookshelf, I feel like I have seen him somewhere before."
However, at this moment, the convenience store's automatic door opened, and then two young people wearing sunglasses with fierce expressions walked in from outside. Yes, these two people were Kawaki and Sogo.
"Welcome." Kuriko quickly greeted and smiled at the two of them.
The two nodded slightly in response and then walked toward Toshiro, who was constantly flipping the Jump magazine. It was obvious that Toshiro did not notice the arrival of the two.
Sogo took out a dagger from his body, and Kawaki held his umbrella. The two of them pressed it against Toshiro's back at the same time.
"Hey, what are you dilly-dallying for? Hurry up and shit here!" Sogo whispered.
At the same time, Kawaki also leaned over to Toshiro and whispered, "I'll count to three. If you don't shit... I'll kill you. One... two..."
"Wait a minute! You two bastards!" Toshiro whispered, his face covered in sweat, "Why are you two here? Didn't you say that you would leave everything to me?"
"How heartless, V-shaped bangs." Kawaki sighed, "I thought you wanted a one-on-one, so I volunteered to help you share the burden~."
"That's right, that's right. It's like being Hijikata-san's wingman on a group date." Sogo whispered in agreement.
"Shut up!" Toshiro cursed in a low voice, "I don't need the two of you at all! Speaking of which, the two of you are here to help, right?! Why did you get the wrong target?! Why do you want me to shit in this place?!"
"By the way, what number did I end just now? I seem to have forgotten it," Kawaki murmured, "Then let's start over again. One, two..."
"Wait!" Toshiro hurriedly stopped him, "You two should stop before you go too far! I just thought of a way, okay?! Shut up and watch carefully! Don't do anything unnecessary!"
"This person is really heartless. Sogo-kun, we volunteered to help him, but he still looks like this." Kawaki sighed softly.
"That's right, boss. After all, Hijikata-san is a ruthless mayonnaise maniac. In other words, he is a machine that only knows about mayonnaise all day long. There is no emotion at all~" Sogo agreed.
"That won't do, Okaasan. Wouldn't he be useless if your son became like this?" Kawaki said with a face full of horror.
"I think so too, Otousan. Anyone who has such a useless son in their family will be distressed, right?" Sogo sighed softly and replied with a helpless expression.
Listening to Kawaki and Sogo mocking him, several veins popped up on Toshiro's face. However, in the end, Toshiro resisted pulling out his sword and cutting the two goods to death.
Toshiro picked up a bottle of mayonnaise from the goods rack on the side and went straight to the payment counter. On the way, he did not forget to turn his head and remind the two again, "Listen well you two. Please, don't hinder my plan! Just stand by and watch!"
"That's not right, V-shaped bangs. As a wingman, we clearly know our responsibilities." Kawaki said helplessly. At the same time, he also followed, "For example, to supervise whether you are really doing well."
"That's right. If Hijikata-san is a little lax, we can also use this reason to kill Hijikata-san. Uncle Matsudaira seems to have said that before." Sogo also followed.
'This is really troublesome. These two guys seem to be coming for me.' Toshiro glanced at the two people behind him, smiling evilly. He thought hatefully in his heart, 'Sh*t, these two will definitely attack without any scruples! Before that, I have to think of what to do!'
Unknowingly, Toshiro had already arrived at the payment counter. Looking at the three boys in front of him who were still constantly pestering Kuriko, Toshiro suddenly had a plan in his heart. After heavily smashing the mayonnaise bottle in his hand on the counter, Toshiro said, "I'll take this!"
Seeing this, the three boys also calmed down. Kuriko also quickly turned around to help Toshiro settle the bill and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry; I'll help you settle it now."
Taking advantage of the time when Kuriko was settling the bill, Toshiro snorted and clenched the hilt of his sword at his waist. Looking at the three boys still surrounding Kuriko, he faintly said in his mind, 'Humph, although I can't kill them, it shouldn't be a problem to intimidate them a little.'
However, looking at the mayonnaise in her hand, Kuriko finally remembered what had happened at the amusement park that day. Then, with a face full of joy, she jumped over the counter and arrived in front of Toshiro.
"You... You are really Moyo 13-sama!" Kuriko put her hand on her chest and looked at Toshiro with a red and shy face.
'It's over!' Toshiro thought to himself.
"Ko... Ko... Kuriko-chan!" Plane Head shouted incoherently.
"You and this man..." Glasses stammered.
"What is the relationship?!!" Mohawk added.
At this moment, Toshiro suddenly had a plan, 'Wait, maybe this can be used!' While thinking, Toshiro took a step forward and gently wrapped his arm around Kuriko's waist. Then he turned to look at the three boys at the side and chuckled, "This girl is my woman! Our relationship is like that of a love affair between a hopeless pimp and a loving milf!"
As he spoke, Toshiro looked at Kuriko and revealed a tender expression, "I've made you wait for a long time, Kuriko. I am really an unreliable man. But you don't have to worry about it in the future. We will never be separated from each other in the future."
"Mayo 13-sama..." Kuriko leaned into Toshiro's arms with a red face.
"Do you all understand, you bastards?! Don't get close to my woman again! If you don't listen to my advice..." Toshiro pulled out his sword as he spoke and said, "I'll chop you all up!"
"Yes, yes! This is the woman our boss fancy!" Kawaki put on a hooligan's face and said hatefully.
"If you keep looking, I will cut off all your [Bleep] and the sticks! Bastards!" Sogo also put on a hooligan's face.
'What are you doing?!' Toshiro cursed in his heart.
However, all three boys ran out crying at this moment.
'See? It was solved so easily,' Toshiro looked at the speechless Kawaki and Sogo behind him and laughed proudly.
Kawaki: So corny...
Sogo: Yes... so corny... and so disgusting. This is the first time I have seen such a boring and disgusting person, boss.
Kawaki: Yes, let's go. If this goes on, I will vomit. Let's go out and play with the three silly guys outside, Sogo-kun.
Sogo: Okay, boss.
Just like that, Kawaki and Sogo left at the same time. On the way, they did not forget to turn their heads and look at Toshiro again. However, after turning their heads, Kawaki and Sogo laughed and thought at the same time, 'But the next thing is not so easy to get rid of~ V-shaped bangs/Hijikata-san.'
'What attitude is this? These two bastards! Didn't the two of you play hard just now?' Toshiro rolled his eyes and cursed. Then he looked at the shy Kuriko in his arms, 'In short, those three people have been dealt with. The only thing left is to solve the misunderstanding...'
