man in tokyo, mock girlfriend

Chapter 41 45. The ancestral ring

The day after Akizuki Yahiko fled in panic from Yukino Mifuyu, he was in the management room.

"Haha...Miss Yukino has been avoiding me for several days."

The administrator was lying on the floor of the living room, holding his head with one hand, sighing, his heart full of melancholy.

In the past few days, he had been thinking about Yukino's late winter, so much so that he began to miss food and tea.

Yukino Mito is his ideal type. He really wants to help her, but let alone bringing them closer, they are getting farther and farther away!

"Huh? That's..."

When the administrator was bored, he inadvertently glanced at the long wooden table placed against the wall and found a box under the table.

This room originally belonged to his father, so naturally this box also belonged to him.

I thought that his father's things had been packed away long ago, but I didn't expect that there were still some leftovers...

The administrator took out the box and took a look, and found that the box was surrounded by a layer of dusty yellow paper, with black symbols in unidentifiable fonts on the paper.

Peeling off the paper and opening the box, what was inside was a scarlet ring with slender pupils that looked like a cat's eye.

On the inside of the old wooden box containing the ring, there are densely packed small characters, which read:
"For monsters that enter the field of vision of the ring, as long as you hold your breath and concentrate on praying, you can manipulate the opponent's consciousness and cognition through charm and hints, but..."

The font is completely broken at this point, because the words engraved behind it have rotted away.

At this time, the administrator still thought the ring was a fake and had no expectations in return.

However, he still took the financial subsidy application, went to Room 503 on the fifth floor, and rang the doorbell.

"Ding dong ding dong~"

The doorbell rang and after waiting for several minutes, there was no movement inside.

Did you go out?
Or...are you hiding on purpose and refusing to come out?

"Miss Yukino, are you there?"

He shouted inwardly and waited for a while, but when he saw that no one was there, he left angrily and prepared to go out.

Before, he once met Yukino Midwinter on the street. She was standing in front of a famous dessert shop, looking at the sign that the milk puffs were sold out, feeling very sad.

Therefore, he thought about buying one and then coming to apologize and discuss the rent.

After returning to the room and getting ready to go out, the administrator accidentally spotted a black car leaning against a shade of greenery after leaving the apartment.

He had seen that car before and remembered that it belonged to Akizuki Yahiko who lived next door to Yukino Midwinter.

Did a thief steal the car?
The administrator felt awe-inspiring, lowered his steps, bowed his waist, and walked towards the black car under the green shade.

Fortunately, he walked from the rear of the car. If he walked from the front, he might be discovered by the thief.

Gradually, he came to the rear trunk of the car. Through the frosted glass of the back seat, he couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, but the passenger window was luckily half-open.

So, he quietly walked to the passenger seat, looked in, and saw Yahiko Akizuki sitting in the driver's seat with his trousers drooping at his feet.

In the passenger seat, there was a person lying down with his head rising and falling.

The administrator couldn't see her appearance clearly because her head and shoulders were covered by a blanket. Akizuki Yahiko put his hand on the person's head and stroked it gently.

However, the clothes worn by the woman in the passenger seat looked familiar. The light blue jacket, white knitted sweater, black skirt, and pantyhose...

"administrator?!"

Akizuki Yahiko was startled when he noticed the administrator standing outside the passenger window, peeping in.

It was so exciting that he almost foamed at the mouth.

"Ah... I'm sorry! I didn't mean it! I saw Mr. Qiuyue's car swaying and thought there was a thief, but I didn't expect..."

I didn’t say anything more about the rest of it, but everyone understood it.

Yukino Mito, who was lying on her stomach in the co-pilot, heard the conversation between the two. Instead of stopping, she became even more energetic and lowered her head. "hiss!"

Akizuki Yahiko couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

The snow girl is so terrifying, she has fully grasped the true meaning of the two layers of ice and red!
Akizuki Yahiko endured the throbbing feeling that made his legs weak, and said with a trembling voice: "It's okay, thank you for worrying about me."

"……Um."

The administrator was still standing at the passenger window, seemingly not planning to leave.

Because, he had a vague feeling that the man in the passenger seat looked familiar...

Seeing this, Akizuki Yahiko placed his hand on the back of Yukino Fuka's head and pressed it tightly to prevent her from moving too much and causing the blanket to slip off.

"What, what's wrong, administrator?"

"Ah...it's okay, it's just...um..."

The administrator was hesitant, not daring to ask specifically who was in the passenger seat. After all, it had nothing to do with him.

Suddenly, he thought of the ring he had found at home.

How about... will it work if you try this thing?
If not, just say it was a joke and walk away.

The administrator did what he said. He raised his left hand and let the ring face of the ring face Yahiko Qiuyue. At the same time, he shouted: "Mr. Qiuyue, please look at this!"

"F*ck! You kid—"

Akizuki Yahiko actually had a premonition that something was not going to happen, and subconsciously wanted to rush out to stop the administrator, but he managed to survive. Because of the deep winter in Yukino, his legs had already become weak and numb, let alone rushing out. It’s hard to stand up!

So, he closed his eyes smartly, thinking that as long as he didn't look, he wouldn't be hypnotized, right?

Unfortunately, the effect of the ring held by the administrator is determined by entering the ring's field of vision, and does not need to be seen by the other party.

"Shh-"

As the administrator pointed the ring at Akizuki Yahiko and prayed with bated breath, the half-closed scarlet vertical eyes on the ring opened instantly.

At that moment, Qiuyue Yahiko felt as if his soul had been pulled away, and his consciousness became hazy and groggy.

This ring can only control demons, but the identity given to him by the Dead Horse Simulator is that of a fucking demon!
This is probably what the simulator calculated. If the administrator cannot hypnotize Akizuki Yahiko, he will kill him immediately, right?

Seeing that Yahiko Akizuki, who was about to burst into violence, the administrator suddenly became quiet, and when his eyes and expression became dull and empty, he yelled: "Who is that person in the passenger seat?"

"Yukino... deep winter." Akizuki Yahiko replied blankly.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

When the suspicion turned into reality and the cruel truth that he did not want to face was revealed in front of his eyes without any cover-up, the administrator suddenly collapsed, covered his head with his hands, knelt on the ground, and screamed in pain.

"Pfft-"

Suddenly, a penetrating tearing sound sounded, and the administrator's throat felt like it was being strangled, and he could no longer make a sound.

He lowered his head and stared in disbelief at the icicle that pierced his heart and sprouted from his back. Then he looked up again and saw Yukino Mito who had straightened up and looked at him with cold eyes, eyes wide open.

The simulation is not over yet.

Akizuki Yahiko was not freed from hypnosis either.

After Yukino Midwinter killed the administrator, he opened the car door and pulled out the evil ring from the administrator's index finger.

Then, she also took off the silver ring she had been wearing on her ring finger and replaced it with the evil hypnotic ring.

"Mr. Yahiko... please give me more advice in the future."

Yukino Middong looked back at Yahiko Akizuki, who looked like a walking corpse, with a strange smile on his face.
