After Having a Physical Relationship With a Pure and Beautiful Girl, I Became a Slut, but It’s Okay Because I Have a Strong Libido. - Episode 32

“If you come any closer, I’ll have to lay hands on you as well–“

–Dogon, Gon, Goki

A dull thud was clearly audible from outside the entranceway into the room. It sounded like a bone had been forcefully broken.

『Oi, hey! You――Guu』

“Oh dear, I put in a bit too much force. Sorry about that.”

The sound of the front door slowly opening was heard loudly in the silent room.

“I’m back. Oh, my. What an unexpected guest.”

He was cracking his fingers and slowly walked over to Akane with a grin on his face, looking at her. He seemed to be enjoying the situation, and even to Akane, he looked a little scary.

“Y-you…”

“I’m just a humble professional boxer. You’re, erm, Chairman Nango.”

Tatsuma guessed that the fat man was Chairman Nango based on the physical characteristics he had heard from Akane. He was able to determine from eavesdropping that the thin man holding Akane down was her adoptive father.

“That’s right. The guards on the outside are–“

“Well, of course, I knocked him down. It was in self-defense after all. He attacked me with a baton and a knife. So… how long do you intend to hold Akane-san captive?”

“Mmmmmm!”

He looked like he was trying to say something, with a mixture of happiness that Tatsuma had come and guilt for causing him trouble, but his adoptive father was covering his mouth, so he couldn’t understand what he was saying.

“Hey, what should I do?”

“Shut up. I’m thinking now…”

Unable to think for himself, his adoptive father asks Chairman Nango for a decision. Just as he had heard from Akane, Nango was incompetent, having bankrupted the Shiraishi zaibatsu in just one generation.

(This is even worse than I imagined. It’s like I’m a puppet of Chairman Nango.)

“Then I have a proposal. Why don’t you release Akane and turn yourself in to the police? If you do that, I will promise not to let any of you get hurt.”

“I’ll turn myself in to the police! I won’t do that.”

“That’s right… I’ll kill you here and wipe the smear out with my power.”

“I see. The negotiations have broken down… By the way, Chairman Nango, how long do you intend to keep the item below out?”

“Hmm? Ah, that’s right — Gaaah…!”

Chairman Nangou bent down to retrieve a knife from the pocket of his trousers, which were at his feet. However, just as he was about to bend, Tatsuma delivered a front kick. Chairman Nangou bent down with such force that it became a counter kick, with more force than usual, causing him to fall backwards with such force that he hit the window behind him, with a loud crash and the sound of glass breaking.

“So, what will you do?”

Tatsuma asked his foster father, who was pinning Akane down, with a smile on his face. He was shaking violently and had lost the strength to restrain Akane. Not missing this, Akane kicked her foster father in the groin with her foot.

“Ahhh! Sh1t, Akane! How dare you dare…”

Then he pushed his injured foster father aside, headed straight for the kitchen, and took out a knife.

“How dare you do this to my mother and father… I’ll never forgive you!”

“Hiiiiii… hey, you. Help me!”

“Tatsuma… don’t stop me! This is my revenge.”

“…”

Tatsuma remained silent, and Akane seemed to take that as approval as she ran towards her adoptive father, knife held in front of her.

–Clang, clang.

As Akane tried to charge, he quickly slapped the knife out of her hand.

“That’s not okay, Akane-san.”

“Why, why are you stopping me, Tatsuma-kun? This man killed my mother and father!”

“But even so… You actually know, Akane-san, don’t you?”

“Ugh… If we kill him here, there will be no testimony… The truth will never be revealed.”

His eyes were red with tears, and he was clenching his hands so hard they were bleeding. It was as if he was forcing his urge to kill someone down with reason.

“That’s true. I’m sure there are many other charges against her, and I’m sure there are many other victims besides Akane.”

“…Now!”

Akane’s father tried to take advantage of the opportunity while Tatsuma and Akane were talking and escape through the front door.

Tatsuma tried to stand up to interrupt, but was taken aback by the sight before him.

“Eh… Ugh.”

“a……”

Akane’s father fell with a loud noise.

Tatsuma’s room has wooden flooring. It’s slippery when you walk on it in socks. And he was trying to run fast. It was a combination of both that made him unfortunately slip.

“Is this okay…?”

“I don’t know… But, I’m kind of disappointed…”

Akane’s desire for revenge must have faded after the abrupt ending. She had been burning with passion just a moment ago, but now she was expressionless, as if her soul had been taken away.

He took his smartphone out of his pocket and made a call.

“Hello, is this the police? There’s been an incident, an attempted rape and attempted murder… well, it’s all sorts of things. Are there any injured people? Well… four people. All four of them have broken bones, so I think their injuries are serious… Ah, yes—“

“He can come surprisingly quickly and will arrive in about ten minutes.”

“Now then… Akane-san, could you please turn off the security cameras?”

“Uh, uh, yeah… and Tatsuma-kun, why are you here?”

He didn’t show any signs of being surprised that he’d come home so early and that Chairman Nagumo and the others were in the house. This made Akane curious, and she naturally asked a question.

“This is it.”

“Earphones?”

“That’s right. I’ve been listening to your voice for a long time.”

“Voice… Ah, don’t tell me, there was a wiretap somewhere.”

She replied as she looked around the room.

“That’s right. I knew about Akane’s plan to sacrifice herself. I predicted that this would happen someday. That’s why I planted a wiretap so I could act at any time.”

“From what time……”

“Hmm, maybe since Akane started using social media. I was always wondering why she would do something that would expose her identity, but it was obvious with a little thought. I think Akane doesn’t want to drag me into it, so she’s just trying to deal with it on her own.”

“Hahaha!… So Tatsuma knew everything about it.”

Her expressionless face had completely changed. She was laughing happily, as if she had let go of everything. The burden on her heart, the matter with her adoptive father and Chairman Nagumo, had been resolved, but more than that, she had mixed emotions about the fact that the plan she had been making had been discovered by someone she didn’t want to know about.
