Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 688 - 422 A Sudden Visit from Hanamaru Hiroki

The train passed by every fifteen minutes, and the girl stood on the hotel balcony, gazing at the people getting on and off at the station ahead.

"Have you figured out how to et Sakura?"

"Not...yet..." Hanamaru Hanabi withdrew her gaze from the maze of wires above the station.

"Hanabi-chan, you’ve been thinking about this all day and still have no idea. I suggest you just knock out Sakura, then tie him up in the hotel. While he’s unconscious, you can do whatever you want with him. Sakura’s face, Sakura’s nose, Sakura’s breath, Sakura’s body, it’s all~~yours, Hanabi-chan. Of course, if Hanabi-chan wants, you could also buy a collar, get a rope and gently fasten it on him while he sleeps."

"No, I can’t do that..." Hanamaru Hanabi tightly clutched her delicate wrist.

"Haha (a soft laugh covering her mouth), why is Hanabi-chan getting so worked up? No need to be so excited. The collar and rope are just small props for fun. Imagine, Hanabi-chan, your favorite Sakura holding the rope, asking you to lead him. With your permission, he leaps forward cautiously, not daring to overstep, making you feel a kind of pleasure all over."

"Hanabi... and Sakura are equals..." Hanamaru Hanabi refused to hear these words, shaking her head to drive them out of her mind.

"Hey, I already said, it’s just a small prop for fun. Didn’t he always say he wanted to touch your little feet more? This way he can hold them up and touch them freely... He’ll feel happy, and Hanabi-chan you’ll have an enjoyable experience, what’s wrong with that? Besides, Hanabi-chan is so cute and beautiful, not many won have your figure; I’m sure he’d be happy to play these gas with you."

"I can’t..."

"Since Hanabi-chan ntioned equality, switching roles is fine too, let Sakura personally put the collar on us, as his—’toy.’"

The word "toy" seed to whisper lingeringly in the girl’s ear.

"No, it can’t... that’s too strange..." Hanamaru Hanabi shook her head firmly.

"Haha~ (another soft laugh) Since Hanabi-chan doesn’t like hearing this, how about we return to the main topic? Have you figured out how to see Sakura without being noticed?"

Hanamaru Hanabi shook her head, "Hanabi thinks... it’s better to end it early..."

"You can’t, Hanabi-chan, how can you think like this, you promised ten days, only ten days, and you can’t hold on?"

Hanamaru Hanabi looked up at another speeding train below the balcony, lost in thought.

The voice echoed in her mind again.

"How about this, we take the initiative to et Sakura? However, if I were to et her, if Hanabi-chan goes, haha~ needless to say, you’ll surely end up in his arms again, returning to the intimate days of before. In the end, nothing changed, right? You can’t be sure if Sakura likes you even more."

"Hanabi feels... like it was fine before..."

"Hanabi-chan, ordinary days only wear down the will. Despite everyone saying they long for a normal life, isn’t it only after people have lived enough of it that they look for sothing different?

"Gamblers return to gambling, criminals return to cri, otaku who love a female character will love the next one, and once ensnared again by the longing for a huge difference, they will pine for the old days again, repeating the cycle.

"Everyone is just looking for new excitent in mundanity. If it’s not novel enough, sustained ordinary life will be phased out, it’s nobody’s fault, it’s just how it is for everyone.

"Not to ntion, didn’t Sakura like you even more because of my appearance? Always longing for your presence."

"I know Hanabi-chan wants to be rembered by Sakura, so these few days of separation are also ant for him to recall your goodness and cherish you more."

"Tomorrow, we’ll go find him."

...

The fifth night.

Uesugi Sakura finished the cheap bento he bought at the supermarket and then returned to wash the clothes he’d piled up over the days.

After hanging up the laundry, he stood on the balcony under the night sky, gazing at Tokyo Tower not far away, only feeling the biting cold of the night wind, carrying a chilling sensation that penetrated the heart.

The weather was getting colder, did Hanabi-chan catch a cold out there?

Uesugi Sakura pondered for a while, resting his hands on the cold railing, observing the night view of Tokyo from high above.

The skyscrapers were brightly lit, the streets teeming with people; this area was a comrcial district, always bustling.

A new ice cream shop had opened downstairs recently, and they still had Hanabi’s favorite chili flavor. Uesugi Sakura thought of taking her there, but he never got the chance to do so.

Originally, he was excited to hear any news related to Hanabi in the afternoon and hurriedly inquired about her whereabouts.

But upon calming down, he realized she might not want to see him...

After all, the ten-day small separation was her idea, and the ti wasn’t up yet... Finding her served no purpose...

But ten days, just ten days, would quickly pass; it’s already the fifth day now.

Uesugi Sakura took out his phone from his trouser pocket, it was a call from his father-in-law.

"Did Hanabi tell you about the afternoon incident?"

The afternoon incident was presumably referring to the issue resolved by dark Hanabi.

Although Hanabi hadn’t told him, he learned the general situation from that custor.
