Chapter 173: Akemi: You have a woman's scent on you!

Then she clearly wasn't worthy of Hoshino Ki!

"Ah! Then what should I do? Even you can't take it, Ran... it's too late for me to learn now!"

Suzuki Sonoko instantly became listless.

Mouri Ran couldn't bear to see her best friend caught in emotional trouble.

So she twitched her mouth and comforted her:

"It shouldn't be! Maybe Hoshino-kun was joking."

"Really?"

Shining light burst out of Suzuki Sonoko's eyes.

That hopeful gaze burned Mouri Ran painfully!

"Ma... maybe!"

Mouri Ran shifted her eyes guiltily.

"Then there's still hope! Look at that woman Yamakawa, she didn't give up!"

"I won't give up!"

Suzuki Sonoko was instantly revived like she had been injected with chicken blood after receiving Mouri Ran's comfort.

She clenched her fists and looked up at the beautiful sunset.

Hoshino Ki walked on the way home after parting ways with Suzuki Sonoko and Mouri Ran.

Now his name had spread out.

A hero in high school?

Not bad!

"Louis!"

Just then!

A charming female voice came.

Hoshino Ki was slightly stunned and turned around to look at the other party.

Vermouth.

A woman with an extremely exquisite appearance.

Long golden hair, a graceful figure.

She wasn't wearing her black tight-fitting suit today.

Instead, she was wearing an ordinary beige professional suit.

Was there some reconnaissance mission?

Why did she appear in broad daylight?

And in such a public place...

Hoshino Ki stepped forward, grabbed her arm, and walked to the corner.

"What are you doing here?"

Hoshino Ki's pitch-black eyes carried a hint of imperceptible doubt.

"I missed you... can't I?"

This woman was like a lazy, seductive cat.

She stood on tiptoe as if boneless, lifted her arms, and rested them on Hoshino Ki's shoulders.

"Something up?"

Hoshino Ki leaned back slightly until his back hit the wall.

He thought he would increase the distance between them.

But who knew Vermouth would also lean in.

He was completely imprisoned by Vermouth.

A charming scent surrounded him instantly.

"Go shopping with me!"

She leaned close to Hoshino Ki's neck, her warm breath hitting around his ear.

"???"

Hoshino Ki shifted his ear slightly.

Then he grabbed Vermouth's slender waist.

With a force, he swapped their positions.

"This is a mission!"

Vermouth reached out and tapped Hoshino Ki's forehead.

The threat was very clear.

Was this revenge after being... by him?

Was she planning to commit an assassination while shopping?

Hoshino Ki raised an eyebrow, his pitch-black eyes showing no emotion:

"Alright!"

Come on! Kill me!

Who's afraid of who!

Hoshino Ki pushed Vermouth away and took out his phone.

His fingers moved to find Miyano Akemi's number.

Open the dialog box:

【Something came up! I'll be back later, don't wait for me for dinner!】

Click send!

"Who are you sending a message to?"

The scent came close again.

Hoshino Ki's phone screen went dark.

He looked up at Vermouth and stuffed the phone into his pocket.

"No one! Let's go!"

Hoshino glanced at her and stepped forward.

Vermouth looked at Hoshino Ki's back.

The seductive aura in her eyes only increased, and it carried a hint of danger.

Inside the mall!

"It's been a long time since I came here to shop!"

Vermouth stretched.

She looked like a feline that only acted at night.

Her exquisite figure caught the eyes of most people.

"Aren't you afraid of being discovered by enemies when you go out like this?"

Hoshino Ki looked at Vermouth's face.

Although it was a disguised face.

But he always felt... anyone who had seen her true face would be able to recognize her at a glance...

Vermouth had killed so many people, she should have quite a few enemies.

"What's there to be afraid of? If I'm discovered, I'll just kill their whole family, kill them all... then no one will remember what I look like!"

Vermouth picked out clothes.

Then she occasionally held them up to herself to measure.

She didn't even blink when talking about killing someone's whole family.

It was as if killing was already a daily routine for her.

Not to mention...

She was right.

Hoshino Ki had nothing to say.

"Am I your one and only lover?"

Vermouth suddenly put down the clothes and turned to circle Hoshino Ki's shoulders.

The distance between the two closed again.

Hoshino Ki looked at the woman in front of him.

His pupils shrank slightly.

What was she up to?

Saying such a thing for no reason.

Vermouth saw Hoshino Ki had no reaction.

So she squinted her eyes, and her voice deepened.

The arm she circled around Hoshino Ki's shoulder tightened:

"Am I really not? Do you have someone else?"

Hoshino Ki was inexplicably nervous.

Although he didn't show it on the surface and remained calm.

But his body had already broken out in goosebumps.

His back felt cold.

Danger!

This woman's sense of aggression was too strong!

He pushed Vermouth away:

"You are!"

From a character perspective.

Vermouth was indeed unique!

Hoshino Ki turned his back to her and walked toward another area of the mall.

Vermouth stared at Hoshino Ki's back.

Her face turned cold.

He slept with her and didn't want to take responsibility? Did he have another woman?

It was the one he sent a message to just now, right?

Her toys were never shared!

Those promiscuous little vixens, don't even think about snatching him from her!

Hoshino Ki finally managed to get rid of Vermouth's entanglement.

He accompanied her shopping for 3 hours and bought her a pile of gifts.

Only then did Vermouth show kindness and let him go.

Hoshino Ki didn't return home until 10 PM.

Just as he was about to walk into his own front door...

A long, white, and tender leg stepped out, and then Hoshino Ki saw the person's face clearly.

The woman had a pair of beautiful, moving blue eyes, and there was a hint of a gentle smile in her eyes.

Her gaze carried a brighter smile when it touched Hoshino Ki.

"Ki!"

Don't know when it started.

Miyano Akemi's way of addressing him had changed, becoming more intimate!

At this moment, she was fully playing the role of Hoshino Ki's wife.

Hoshino Ki's pitch-black eyes became a bit complicated...

He simply responded to her.

Miyano Akemi walked up and held Hoshino Ki's hand affectionately:

"Ki! Why don't you come in and stand here blowing in the wind? Your fingers are all cold."

Hoshino Ki opened his pitch-black eyes and looked straight at Miyano Akemi:

"I was just about to go in, and you opened the door."

"It seems we have a telepathic connection..."
