Chapter 220: , Tide Noise!

At the same time, on September 15, after Uesugi Muneyuki finished his work for the day and returned home, Ikeda Erena, dressed in her work attire, followed behind him; the *tap-tap-tap* of her high-heeled shoes made it clear that the tall beauty was in a good mood.

Hmm, no, that wasn't right; Erena had been in a good mood ever since she and Uesugi Muneyuki had consummated their relationship, and as Uesugi Muneyuki continued to open her up and cultivate her, a hint of a mature, succulent peach aura gradually emerged from the tall beauty, plump and bouncy, extremely alluring; whenever she looked at Uesugi Muneyuki, the tall beauty's eyes would shimmer with moisture, always revealing a hint of moving affection.

"Uesugi." In the elevator going up, Erena said somewhat unnaturally: "Have you been finding other masters lately?"

"Hmm? Why do you say that?" Uesugi Muneyuki found it quite intriguing after hearing this.

He now went to the home of Senior Mai to practice one fixed evening every week; this practice was quite effective, and he had gradually mastered the essentials of "Precision Defense," and coupled with the strengthening of his body through Courage, Ikeda Erena gradually discovered that she was no longer able to stably suppress Uesugi Muneyuki as she had before, and would be caught by his sneak counterattacks from time to time.

The gap between the two was gradually narrowing, which was certainly something that made Erena happy, but it also caused her a little bit of conflict.

She was conflicted because ever since the Fuji TV Case, Erena had discovered that she actually had no further opportunities to take action; to call herself Uesugi Muneyuki's personal bodyguard when she had no chance to truly fight—how could that even count as being a bodyguard!

At this moment, if she were to lose the status of master as well, Erena always felt that she was being marginalized.

"No, in terms of Karate, I have always only had you, Master Erena, as my master." Uesugi Muneyuki said quite naturally: "I have been your apprentice for so long, so it is only normal that my level has improved."

Hearing this, Erena was a bit stunned.

That's right, if one counted carefully, they had known each other for over a year, and the two had been in a relationship for several months now.

When the two first met, Erena would never have imagined that their relationship would end up like this, right?

Thinking of this, the tall beauty couldn't help but shake her head with a bitter smile, while also feeling a bit embarrassed.

It's no use, I have already, completely become unable to leave Uesugi-kun...

Not to mention anything else, as long as Uesugi Muneyuki stared at her for a while, Erena would uncontrollably blush, her body would start to heat up, and her lower abdomen would itch, and as long as there were no outsiders, the tall beauty would instinctively cling to Uesugi Muneyuki; whether he held her, wrapped his arms around her, or even let her lean on his shoulder, in short, she would never let go of any opportunity to get close to him.

Damn it, I originally hated men, how did I end up like this in a muddled state?

But Erena enjoyed this kind of life, well, if Minami, Asuka, and Mikoto hadn't appeared.

Following her poor relationship with Asuka, Erena had now locked horns with the Forensic Beauty.

There was no other reason.

The elite aura on Mikoto was too obvious! In comparison, Erena didn't know anything, and at the scene, she was immediately upstaged by Ishihara Mikoto, losing the chance to talk to Uesugi Muneyuki; the two often chatted about professional terminology that Erena couldn't understand at all, and unable to find a chance to interject, Erena always had the illusion of being isolated.

But she only had Uesugi!

"What's wrong, Master Erena?" Uesugi Muneyuki in the elevator noticed the change in Erena's expression; he gently reached out and pinched Erena's cheek: "Are you unhappy?"

"How could I possibly be happy about something like this!" Erena couldn't help but snap: "Speaking of which, why did you have that woman adopt Asuka?"

"That woman? Which woman? It's not like Mikoto-san doesn't have a name." Uesugi Muneyuki knew that Erena was jealous: "Alright, don't you think our Autopsy work efficiency is much higher with Mikoto-san around?"

"That may be true, but..." Erena pouted and stomped her foot, thinking to herself, that slut!

Ishihara Mikoto had been on the job for less than a month, and the entire Metropolitan Police Department remembered this woman, because the Forensic Beauty especially loved to wear all kinds of fashionable clothes to work, dressing herself up in a flashy way every single day, which was truly eye-catching; there was no shortage of gossip, all of which Ishihara Mikoto ignored.

I am here to be a Forensic Pathologist, not to please you all!

This was actually the same as what Erena thought: I am here to be a police detective, not to please you all!

Sometimes, having the same attributes does not mean getting along; instead, it means being enemies!

Erena, who couldn't help but feel anxious and restless, was lost in thought when they arrived home.

"Welcome back, Mr. Uesugi!" Saito Asuka was clearly already prepared; the girl, in a rare sight, was not wearing pantyhose but had changed into a simple blue plaid dress, a pair of lace-trimmed short socks, and a pair of small leather shoes; her bangs were cut straight across her small face, clearly ready to go out.

"Mm." Uesugi Muneyuki and Erena went home to prepare briefly and changed their clothes, then took Asuka out together.

Likewise, Asuka was also a bit unhappy today.

She didn't want to be adopted, didn't want to recognize a guardian, and didn't want to become someone else's daughter.

It was just that she had no choice, and since this was arranged by Mr. Uesugi, she could only accept it.

The Chosen Girl knew that this was a design to ensure she could continue to stay by Uesugi Muneyuki's side, but she still felt resistant.

As for her own family, having Mr. Uesugi alone was enough!

Along the way, the car was very silent, and Uesugi Muneyuki also felt this atmosphere.

The tolerant Miss Minami, the clumsy Master Erena, the humble Housekeeper Ashūshū, plus a Forensic Beauty Mikoto-san who had no intention of entering his life and wouldn't even come to his house—just these four people already had so many sparks between them.

If Senior Mai were to appear, would his backyard explode?

"What I witness is creation, and what I bring is destruction!" — Senior Mai

……………………

After arriving at the agreed-upon restaurant, a beautiful figure appeared before Saito Asuka.

She had shoulder-length medium hair that lifted with the wind, the color a dyed brown, with a pair of foxy, large eyes and slightly thick lips, which was rare.

The hair at her temples was fluffy and soft, her slanted bangs soft and slightly capable; her exquisite and pretty features revealed a natural brightness and maturity, and her shining eyes held a look of curiosity, as sunny as her temperament.

A violet-colored women's blouse and a British-style striped skirt completely outlined her petite and slender figure; although the woman was not tall, not even 1.6 meters, her build was particularly well-proportioned, and she had even used a little trick to intentionally move her belt upward to steal a bit of height, making her legs look even longer.

Habitually, Asuka's gaze naturally caught a glimpse of a certain area.

Woo!!!

The girl suffered a heavy blow, unable to rise again, almost falling to her knees as her body turned gray.

Why? Why is it that as long as it's a woman, they all...

Damn it! I'm clearly still developing, just still developing!

Although I can't compare to this tall, fat, giant-b-beep monster, I, Saito Asuka, will sooner or later surpass Minami-onee-san!

Mm! The Chosen Girl firmly believed it!

Forget it, I don't care about these boring things.

Let's get to know each other quickly, sign the adoption contract, and I still have to go back to being Mr. Uesugi's maid, Ashūshū!

Saito Asuka, having suffered repeated heavy blows, decided to keep everything simple and finish quickly.

However, the situation was not as she had imagined.

Uesugi Muneyuki did not get straight to the point, but instead greeted the urban beauty before them, the two chatting and laughing; and upon seeing Asuka, Ishihara Mikoto was shocked by the girl's world-shaking beauty and cute temperament, a hint of faint anger passing through her brows, as if she were criticizing the man for having some unspeakable reason for taking her in!

Hmm?

Saito Asuka narrowed her eyes slightly.

The girl felt that something was not quite right.

Are these two people really just friends?

Saito Asuka is not good at socializing but is extremely good at reading the room; her powers of observation are extremely keen.

For example, Saito Asuka may seem to have no friends, but in reality, she knows the names, appearances, personalities, and club affiliations of every classmate in her class by heart.

Since coming to Tsukuba University High School, almost all the boys in the class have been pursuing her, especially a boy named Yuto; although she does not know the situation of Yuto's family, he is picked up and dropped off by a Maybach every day, and he even invited Asuka to dine at the Tokyo Imperial Hotel, saying he could take her to visit the Imperial Palace.

This boy thought that this would win Asuka's heart, but in reality, Asuka sneered at him.

The girl thought to herself, are these things yours?

These are not yours at all; they are just your family's.

Mr. Uesugi dared to stand up to his family for my sake; can you do that? Even if you could, do you have the ability to force your family to back down?

You don't even have that bit of ability, yet you have the nerve to expect me to look at you properly?

The girl had long ago decided that her life would be tied to Mr. Uesugi forever.

However, looking at the radiant urban beauty before her, the tall and plump policewoman beside her, the sweet, lovely, dignified, and generous Minami-sister who had given her so many gifts, and that legendary National Goddess Shirakawa Mai.

Asuka suddenly felt as if the whole world was her enemy.

There is no mistake; that expression, that flirtatious look, and those natural, suggestive glances.

These two people have definitely done it!

Woo, why hasn't Mr. Uesugi touched me yet?

Just like that, the stubborn little head Asuka and the curious Forensic Beauty stared at each other, both secretly sizing the other up.

This girl chosen by the gods will be my "daughter" in the future?

This shameless, foul-mouthed, goblin-lipped bitch will be my "mother" in the future?

The 16-year-old god-chosen high school girl and the 31-year-old Forensic Beauty looked at each other from across the room, and the atmosphere at the scene was strange.

And just as they were planning to probe each other, Uesugi Muneyuki's phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Metropolitan Police Department Criminal Investigation Department Chief Uchimura Kanji.

He picked up the phone and signaled for me to step out for a moment.

"Uesugi-kun! Something has happened!"

"At the port terminal in Ota Ward, Tokyo, the crew of Tokyo Marine Holdings fished a piece of a corpse out of the water! According to the examination by a nearby Lawmaker, this piece of the corpse belongs to a human; it is a human groin!"

Department Manager Uchimura said urgently: "Where are you now? The headquarters needs you to come to Ota Ward immediately!"

"Alright, I'll go right away!"
