Chapter 90: A Bit More Ruthless Than the Ruthless

But it was only an instant before Shizuku said in a sinister tone,

"If you haven't reached Sword Heart Penetration by eighteen, just honestly scram back to the family and marry off into another great family as a waste second generation, kekekekeke……"

Seeing Uesugi Toru look at her with a strange gaze, Shizuku spread her hands,

"Don't script games all write it like this? Most stories are just very cliché."

Uesugi Toru couldn't be bothered to reply to her; someone who directly appraises light novels and Dragon King Returns as having watched too much was beyond cure.

"Right, Uesugi-kun, want to come back to the Special Affairs Division with me when leaving the school gate?" Shizuku leaned over, raised a fist, the muscle lines on her forearm distinct, "You can even get extra training at night."

"If getting beaten up this afternoon wasn't enough, you can just say so."

Uesugi Toru gave her a white-eye: "When I get home later I'm going to sleep a good, beautiful sleep."

——Vigorously farming Soul Ash in Edo Castle also counts as sleeping a good sleep, no problem.

Shizuku clicked her tongue, turned around, and continued walking beside Uesugi Toru.

Only this time the distance wasn't a clear half meter, but two fists with a somewhat blurred boundary.

"Mami Knot is already waiting for us at the doorway, what's up, getting in the car?"

Uesugi Toru answered with action.

Not long after, the two arriving at the school gate saw that battle-scarred bread van.

The van's window was rolled down, so from far away they could see Shizuka Mami in an OL outfit slumped over the steering wheel snoring, and beside her hand sat a can of black coffee.

Shizuku sighed: "Drinking coffee and sleeping, poison fighting poison, right? Not sleeping well and not having spirit is just pure self-torture?"

"One look and you're not a coffee-drinking company slave office worker."

Uesugi Toru sighed somewhat feeling the same, "You have to know, sleeping during the initial period after drinking coffee is the most efficient, that way after waking up your spirit is doubled."

"I don't care, Mami Knot being this sleepy driving is definitely dangerous."

Shizuku frowned, just walking to the car side, she saw Shizuka Mami suddenly raise her head, staring at her, two black eye circles extremely conspicuous.

"There won't be danger, Miss Tokugawa."

Shizuka Mami said somewhat groggily, then took out from her pocket a Nanjo Doll that Uesugi Toru found familiar, just somewhat rough with loose threads.

Just as the two outside the car thought she was going to use some Yin-Yang Technique, Shizuka Mami poked the doll's forehead with her finger.

Then as if triggering some mechanism, the doll slapped Shizuka Mami's face with two slaps!

The sound was crisp and loud, the strike simply showed no mercy.

It was really hard to imagine how the doll used its two soft, powerless little short hands to slap out such cold, ruthless, loud slaps.

The two outside the car were both stunned.

Shizuku swallowed the "completely unconvincing!" that had reached her mouth, couldn't help but raise two thumbs: "Mami Knot, truly a ruthless person."

Uesugi Toru watched with his forehead twitching wildly, his face seemingly also showing phantom pain: "Pure Wolf Person, a bit more than a ruthless person."

The two got in the car.

After deciding to send Uesugi Toru back first, the girl in the passenger seat couldn't help but speak: "Mami Knot, why not learn breathing technique from me? Otherwise I see your fragile body will one day suddenly die in the dawn of overtime."

Shizuka Mami pursed her lips, driving with full concentration: "Let's just forget that……"

"This will affect Nanjo Shao Shu."

"This will affect Nanjo Shao Shu — Miss Shizuka, that's what you think, right?"

Shizuka Mami gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, while Shizuku looked at Uesugi Toru in the back seat fiddling with the battle-damaged seat belt with a face full of confusion.

Shizuku first gazed at Shizuka Mami's profile for a while, then turned her head and asked shockingly: "Could it be Uesugi-kun you also learned mind-reading Yin-Yang Technique?"

After discovering the seat belt buckle was broken, Uesugi Toru didn't bother with it, just yanked it off and threw it on the seat before saying: "Simply because Miss Shizuka wrote her thoughts on her face."

"Oh oh!"

So Shizuku turned back, and during the long 100s red light held Shizuka Mami's hand, saying seriously: "Mami Knot, you can rest assured about this, Nanjo Shao Shu won't manage this kind of small matter, and Kondou Taikou's side I'll handle."

"——If Mami Knot you really end up in the emergency room from working all night, Manatsu would definitely cry too, right."

"Ah……"

She actually brought out Manatsu, Miss Tokugawa is really too cunning!

Shizuka Mami rarely showed irritation on her expression, she grabbed her hair hard, only feeling her thoughts were a tangled mess.

So she took out the Nanjo Doll again, repeating the old trick.

After two crisp slaps, Shizuka Mami felt the swelling on her face, silently nodding: "I'll learn."

Because if she couldn't make her constitution a bit stronger, she couldn't even take two more slaps from the doll Nanjo-sama gifted her.

If this continued, how could she help Nanjo-sama share work!

Shizuku looked at the dull Nanjo Doll, then looked at Shizuka Mami who had been slapped but was radiant, silently saying to herself so Mami Knot liked this kind of play.

"Since that's the case, I'll teach you well, Mami Knot!"

"Mm! I'll study hard, Miss Tokugawa!"

Uesugi Toru was confused, how did the atmosphere suddenly become burning after the doll used slaps again?

……

Waving goodbye to the two, Uesugi Toru discovered that even Shizuku with extremely sensitive perception didn't discover the existence of his home's Old Man Ghost at all.

This shows Old Man Ghost's gold content is still quite sufficient, it's just Nanjo Sister is much stronger than this group of rookies.

You have to know, Nanjo Ai from beginning to end in front of him only released shikigami to fight, and never personally acted……so how much Yin-Yang Technique she actually mastered, and whether she also cultivates breathing technique, are pure unknowns.

"Before my strength reaches three stars, please trouble you, Old Man."

Uesugi Toru had just pushed open the door when he smelled a faint fishy smell, although not like blood, it indeed carried a strong yokai aura.

——Old Man caught another yokai wanting to commit burglary and murder again?

After some daily activities, Uesugi Toru discovered under the kitchen faucet that pitiful yokai, no, should say that pitiful ox demon's only evidence of having existed.

In the water basin, a pair of pitch-black cow horns covered in spiral patterns lay in the corner, Uesugi Toru picked them up——

【Ushioni Horn】

【Quality: Excellent Quality】

【Effect: Grind and Consume to Slightly Increase Constitution.】

Uesugi Toru grinned, Old man, old man, choosing to keep you back then was truly the right call.

The Difficulty of this Extra Yokai Material Harvest is just as simple as Daily Login to an Idle Game to Collect Crops.

Besides that, on the Filter still hanging with Zero-Star Vegetable Leaves, Ten-odd Snow White Teeth still Remnant.
