After Boqi moved into my closet, the quiet life is gone forever

Chaoyang tried his best to control his movements and ate with one hand, and let Pochi sleep for a while before leaving.

"What an incredible child! He's so cute and has a nice personality."

"It sounds like you're saying you have a bad temper?"

"No, I just don't fit in. If you use those people's standards, I'd say I'm unruly, right? Hehe."

There was a bit of self-deprecation in what Yukinoshita said.

"After all, he and the Great Teacher are of the same kind."

"Aha…"

Hearing Chaoyang's words, Yukinoshita closed her eyes and sighed.

"Why do you like to mention that man named Hikigaya Hachiman so much? Are you actually gay?"

"...Because the people in this world know you from Hikigaya Hachiman's perspective. What are your plans if you return with your memories?"

"I have no plans. Whatever happened before will remain the same when I return. I will just treat all this as a boring dream."

"A boring dream? I actually find it quite interesting. I guess I've surpassed the world with this experience."

However, Chaoyang's words did not arouse any emotion.

"Don't you want to see yourself later?"

Yukinoshita sighed unbearably.

"I know you want to see my reaction and then be happy or have fun with it, right?"

"Well... I do have that thought, but..."

Chaoyang was composing his sentence while his fingers unconsciously fiddled with the straw.

"I want to see more about whether you will change directly after the plot is completed, and what kind of story it will bring."

Yukinoshita glared at Chaoyang with sharp eyes.

"This is an unfounded idea. The story of Yukinoshita Yukino in this world isn't based on my real decisions or experiences, but rather is woven from the thoughts of the person who wrote it. According to my assumption, the world I'm actually in should be a parallel world to the so-called Oregairu story. One of the reasons for this is that I'm already sitting here, but has anything changed in the book about Yukinoshita?"

After listening to Yukinoshita's theory, Chaoyang thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense.

"That's exactly what's going on. If the book is truly your future self, then it should have changed regardless of whether you went back or not. If you didn't go back, you wouldn't exist. If you did go back, it would have become science fiction. Qi Kexiu, you were still thinking about having fun and having a different story. ...In the end, you did read the original book, right?"

[Is there something wrong with the book I've been holding onto lately, My Youth Romantic Comedy?]

But Yukinoshita didn't have any intention of replying and looked away as if nothing had happened.

Chaoyang's eyes lit up instead, and he began to talk about his experience of reading the novel.

"As expected, even you are still interested in the future. Let me, a straight man, analyze the plot. I think you are still too concerned about your sister's affairs. As a result, your personality seems cold and delicate, but it is actually very awkward and twisted. I always feel that you can have stream-of-consciousness conversations from beginning to end because of trivial matters. What's the big deal? Aren't you just high school students? It feels a bit like whining. Compared to these, I still prefer to watch sweet plots, so..."

"...Please stop for a moment. This isn't like meeting an actor to discuss the plot of a movie they're starring in. Make no mistake. If I could help it, I wouldn't want to share my feelings with anyone else."

"Uh, sorry, I just couldn't help myself. Indeed, if I wrote my own story for everyone to see, I would definitely be embarrassed to death, even though no one would write it."

……

The three of them finished their midnight snack without any incident, woke up Pochi and returned home. Sandwich had already returned to the upper closet and was snoring soundly, not caring about his image.

"Hey? Pochi, are you going to sleep in the closet? Isn't that inappropriate?"

Wouldn't that mean I would be sleeping in the house with Yukinoshita Yukino? Although sleeping in the closet or in the house is essentially the same as sleeping in the same room, the feeling of being separated from each other is still different.

But at this time, Pochi put his hands together and looked like he was begging.

"I'm sorry, I've reached my limit. I have trouble breathing if I'm with Ms. Yukinoshita at night. It feels like she's sucking away all the air I breathe."

After all, Pochi couldn't come into contact with people like Yukinoshita in his own world, and even now that he was familiar with them, he still felt physically uncomfortable.

"Forget it, let her be. She's tried so hard today, at least let her sleep in a safe environment she likes. If she can't rest well, it will cause trouble when you try to correct her personality. This is your home, right? Or do you start imagining attacks when you're in the same room with a girl?"

Yukinoshita Yukino, who was making the bed, said lightly.

Chaoyang grabbed his head and agreed helplessly.

"If you don't mind, I'm sure it's okay. It's better to say that those who don't mind are questioning their sexual orientation. ...But, Yukinoshita-san, what you just said is completely unconvincing."

"Ah? What happened?"

"Did you really need to put the bed next to the door? Do you think it would be easier to escape?"

Chaoyang watched as Yukinoshita made her bed next to the path she had to cross, wondering how she would be able to tell whether he was going to use the restroom or attack her.

"Just in case, no need to think too much about it."

37. Planning and strategizing

One day

After class, I went home and planned to rest for a while before the dinner rush hour, and then go out to deliver takeout.

Lying on the tatami and playing with his phone, Chaoyang always feels a little awkward recently.

"It's strange..."

Chaoyang couldn't figure it out.

[The sandwich sauce has been too good lately! ]

"I've almost forgotten what it felt like the last time I hit the sandwich!"

Hearing Chaoyang's mumbling, Yukinoshita, who was typing on the keyboard, didn't even raise her head.

"Ms. Goto, please call 110. There's a dangerous man with a tendency to domestic violence here."

Pochi, who was playing the guitar, put on his headphones as if by magic and shook his head as if following the beat, but in fact he was trying to pretend that he didn't hear what Yukinoshita said.

"Yukinoshita, Sandwich-chan, did you do anything to her? I felt like you were just focusing on Pochi."

"Nothing."

The words came out of her mouth

Sandwich Sauce had already left home and went to a large supermarket 20 minutes away to buy ingredients for dinner.

Chaoyang naturally didn't believe that Yukinoshita could tame Sandwich with just the so-called reward and punishment mechanism, but he still had to make sure that Pochi couldn't hear before talking.

"Pochi...Pochi-chan~...Pochi, I love you! Okay, Pochi can't hear me."

Chaoyang saw that Pochi didn't move at all with headphones on, and even after he shouted the words of confession, his body didn't even shake.

The sudden and inexplicable confession scared Yukinoshita, but she immediately complained with disdain.

"What a cowardly man! He even needs this kind of moment to confess his feelings."

"What nonsense! I'm just testing her. Since the test is complete... I won't reveal your business secrets. Can you tell me more about it?"

"No. If I had to say, apart from enforcing the reward and punishment rules, I went out with her for dinner and some reading."

……

A few days ago, Kanda Jimbocho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo

"Is this the Jimbocho of this world? Haha, it's no different from my original world~~"

I don’t know if Sandwich Sauce has returned to familiar territory. He stood in the middle of the road with his hands on his hips and laughed arrogantly.

"It will cause trouble for others, Miss Evil God, please don't stand in the middle of the sidewalk."

Yukinoshita, who was flipping through books in front of a nearby bookstore, warned Sandwich as if she had eyes on her back.

"Who cares about you! If you hadn't said you wanted to treat me to a meal I wouldn't have bothered to come out with you, a black-haired poker-faced guy!"

"It's not me who invited you, but Mr. Su said that you have been doing well recently, but he doesn't have much time recently."

“The Chinese said I behaved well?”

Various recent memories came to Sandwich's mind, such as when Pochi was practicing and making trouble and touching her guitar, and when she had nothing to do, she used her tail to roll up Pochi and use him as a dumbbell to exercise her tail muscles.

After emerging, he immediately burst into laughter again.

"Yeah, I also think I've been doing pretty well recently, hahaha!"

"Wait there for a moment while I buy a few books."

"Oh, oh..."

For some reason, Sandwich Sauce felt a little sad.

The sight of Yukinoshita looking for books and browsing through them in this kind of antique bookstore, and then the time she spent waiting boredly outside the store, always gave her a familiar feeling.

"...I don't know what happened to Yuri Ling. Tsk~ I wanted to kill her myself..."

Sandwich immediately shook his head, trying to get rid of the image of the old friend that suddenly appeared in his mind.

30 minutes later

"I've bought it, Miss Evil God, let's go."

Yukinoshita finally walked out of the bookstore and called for Sandwich to follow her.

"What do you want to eat? If you dare to ask for less than a thousand yuan, I'll take my anger out on the pink-haired girl when I get home tonight!"

"Well, let me think about it."

Facing the threat from Sandwich Sauce, Yukinoshita Yukino remained calm and looked around.

"Let's go eat the curry over there."

Yukinoshita made the decision without waiting for Sandwich Sauce's reply.

"Bitch, I haven't agreed yet. Hey, wait a minute."

While Sandwich was still thinking, she saw Yukinoshita had already walked forward, so she had to swing her snake tail and quickly catch up.

"I told you to wait!"

In the blink of an eye, the two of them arrived at a European-style curry restaurant called Bondy.

Since it was not meal time, there were not many people queuing.

"..."

[Is it a coincidence? Why is the decor and atmosphere of this shop similar to the one Yuri Suzu went to? ...It must be an illusion.]

38. Determine the future situation

"Uh……"

Sandwich Sauce was stunned when he saw the dish being served.

"...Does this restaurant serve whole potatoes with their curry? Why would they serve this kind of potato? I'll even cut them up and deep-fry them into French fries or wedges!"

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Xueno took out a whole steamed potato from the plate that the store gave away with the curry, slowly peeled it and leisurely explained the filling sauce.

"Ordinary curry usually has potatoes in it, but this restaurant didn't include them for a different flavor. But since curry couldn't be without potatoes, they steamed them whole and served them with butter as an appetizer. And then there's..."

"No, no! I'm here to eat, who wants to listen to you talking like that?"

Sandwich Sauce looked at the woman in front of her chattering while eating the fried pork cutlet curry rice, which made her extremely irritated. She picked up the spoon and put the food in, chewing it loudly and roughly on purpose.

This woman is so annoying. She won't even talk about these insignificant things with Lily Ling while eating... Tsk, even the curry tastes exactly like the one I had in my old world... Lily Ling is such a hateful person! Every time she asks me what I want to eat, she forces me to eat this shit without even waiting for my answer! ...It's not bad, but after eating this, my hatred for her starts to resurface.

"You don't look like you want to eat, you look like you're gnawing on the spoon. Do you need me to get a few more spoons?"

"Long-winded!"

The meal didn't take long. The man and the demon didn't chat while eating like friends do, so the meal was over in just 20 minutes. Finally, Yukinoshita paid the bill with the credit card borrowed from Chaoyang, and returned home without any further communication.

Sandwich had already finished her chores that morning, and for some reason, she had temporarily lost interest in mischief or other mischief. She could only sit in front of the TV, completely bored, scratching her butt and yawning as she watched the boring show.

"..."

As soon as Yukinoshita returned home, she sat down at the desk and started writing.

Sandwich Chan heard the rustling sound of pen touching paper behind her, which piqued her interest. She rolled around on her side on the tatami.
