Chapter 5 - Brand New Day and Unexpected Encounter

[3rd POV]

It's now midnight and raining. Everyone has returned to their homes. Some are still outside, having just worked overtime.

And somewhere in an alley, which was usually a quiet place and used as a shortcut, was now filled with police.

They received a call report from an unknown person who said about a drug dealer's hideout in an alley.

Tracking from the caller's last location, they got the location in question and deployed troops to start a raid.

When everyone was in position and conducting the raid, they thought the dealers were inside preparing for the raid, but no one was found.

They went through each room and when they arrived at the main room all they found was blood everywhere with bullet casings scattered on the floor.

When they reached the production room just like before they found no one but blood scattered with several bullets on the floor.

Entering the drug lord's room, they didn't find anyone except that a safe was wide open, not a single penny left inside.

Not far from the alley, blood stains were also found on the floor which were starting to be washed away by the rain. It is suspected that they were drug dealers who tried to escape, but their bodies were not found in the building.

All drug products appear to be completely untouched in the storage room and in the production room there are still drugs that have not been packaged.

"What the fuck is happening here..."

The police officer who received the report from the caller saw what was in front of him at that moment.

All the drug dealers were not inside but only left blood inside. All the drug items are still there. His initial suspicion was that all the dealers had fled, but after seeing the blood scattered around and the drug products still there, This indicates that drug dealers are not running away.

They were all killed.

Someone is already went here.

It can be seen from the evidence of bullet casings that investigators found. The bullet casings they found were 7.62 x 51 NATO caliber and the weapons they found were mostly small caliber.

And based on the scattered bullet casings here it can be confirmed.

The attacker used a minigun.

But that's still a temporary assumption.

They also found the phone that made the call and reported the incident to the police.

Indicating that the caller had killed everyone inside before calling the police and leaving.

Because this building does not have CCTV and the surrounding area also does not have any, the actual recording of the incident is very unclear.

This will become a biggest mystery in Tengu city.

(The next day~)

[1st POV]

The day after the drug dealer massacre.

And the clock shows five in the morning.

I got up from my bed and stretched my whole body.

Last night after going to the cat cafe I found a place to stay for a week, and Yandemi is already left. The accommodation is only ¥50,000 per week so it's affordable considering last night's loot.

I went to the bathroom to take a shower and soak first.

After entering the bathroom, I just realized that I am a woman now. As a former man, I might be a bit of a pervert, but it's still limited to just a quick glance and not to the point of watching p*rn videos.

But now. The thing that was in the top 10 things I'm forbidden to touch is now inhabiting it now.

Realizing this, my cheeks turned red and I immediately shook my head to get rid of it.

Then I took off my clothes and left only my underwear. Despite my hesitation, I then took off my underwear and now I was completely naked.

Ugh... it's going to take a long time to get used to something like this.

I filled the tub with cold water for a soak later.

Then I took a shower first using cold water.

Ahhhhhh~ Taking a hot shower at this early hour is indeed the best thing.

After soaping and cleaning my body, I then got into the hot tub that I had prepared.

And this is when I relax first before starting my day.

Now come to think about it. In the next five years the canon story will begin, more precisely April 10th.

Previously, Kurumi's goal before being sealed by Shido was to take revenge on the phantom. But now I'm inhabiting Kurumi now, so yeah I'm not truly interested to take a revenge, and I know phantom's identity is Reine Murasame, and original self of her is Mio Takamiya.

Fighting her now or later will only make me lose from just one shot.

Even if I have Za Warudo's ability that is not tied to my Angel, it won't be enough because my main ability is still from Angel.

Okay then, revenge isn't an option then.

Now back to the plot point.

If I'm not mistaken, Kurumi was first introduced in the seventh episode and if I'm not mistaken, when I was scrolling through Instagram, I found that Kurumi had appeared in the fifth episode but only as cameo.

Okay, since I'm not looking for revenge, should I let Shido seal me early?

Through... a kiss?

KYAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

Calm down calm down calm down! I'm a woman now, not a man anymore...

Sigh

This will be difficult.

After thirty minutes I finished soaking. Draining the water from my tub, I then dried myself using a towel and my hair using a hair dryer.

Using Clothing Manipulation I wear a black unbuttoned jacket. Beneath the jacket is a vibrant red button-up shirt with a high collar, which is left partially open. And a high-waisted, pleated mini-skirt in a deep maroon shade. It is decorated with two thin, horizontal white stripes near the hem.

Now I'm back to main room.

Only finding that-

"Where's my Ice cream." Tsundemi on the sofa.

"Gah-! Tsundemi! You surprised me!"

I said to her with a little surprise.

"I don't know what kind of ice cream you want, so just take the money from the suitcase over there." My finger pointed to the suitcase on the table. Yep, I didn't know where to put the money, so I just put it in the suitcase before putting it in my shadow.

"Oh! really? thank you Kurumi!" She said before going straight to the suitcase to take some money.

Sitting on the sofa, I turned my attention to the TV that Tsundemi had turned on earlier. It seems to be showing news that happened last night.

"Good morning. Our top story today: A high-stakes police raid on an alleged narcotics distribution hub turned into a scene of absolute carnage overnight-but there wasn't a single suspect in sight." The female presenter said before the image showed video footage of the aftermath of the massacre.

"Acting on a tip from a confidential informant, tactical units stormed a nondescript warehouse in the industrial district just after midnight. The informant's lead was reportedly 'gold-plated,' pinpointing the location as the nerve center for a regional drug syndicate. However, what officers found inside suggests that someone got there first." Said the male presenter. Then the image shows the evidence at the scene of the incident.

Oof- I didn't expect last night's incident to make it into the news.

Well yeah, I just reported it to the police to confiscate the drugs, so it's only natural.

Then I turned off the TV and was about to leave. But just as I was about to open the door, Tsundemi opened it first with a bucket of ice cream and came inside.

"Oh, you're back. So did you find the ice cream you wanted?" I asked Tsundemi and she passed me and sit in the sofa, turning in the TV again.

"Mmh yeah." She said while snacking on the ice cream.

Actually, it doesn't matter if the money runs out because she bought ice cream or other things, anyway, I'll steal money from criminals again.

After that I went outside for a walk.

While walking, I came across a bakery that looked really good, so I bought some bread and had breakfast. Luckily, I had some cash with me.

Actually, as a Spirit, I don't need to eat, drink, or sleep, but those are still general needs.

Walking in the morning is really refreshing, rather than staying in the apartment, it's better to just walk around so I can get used to this place and who knows, maybe I'll find another criminal to steal from and take their life force.

It's 10 in the morning. Throwing the bag into the trash, I seemed to have wandered into a housing complex.

Wait a minute. This house looks familiar-

Thud-

Ah! I think I bumped into someone.

"Oh! Are you okay?" I said as I reached out my hand to help him.

"Ah, y-yeah I'm fine." He said while holding my hand and then I helped him stand back up.

The boy looked to be twelve years old. His height is around 140 cm. He has straight blue hair and bands down to his neck and amber-brown eyes.

...He looks familiar, blue hair, brown eyes, and somewhat his age is around 12 years old...

!!

This boy- is Itsuka Shido!? The protagonist!? The haremist!? Why the hell he's here!? No wait, looking at the house on the left now I know this is his house...

W-Whats happening to me? Why is my heart beating so fast? Why my cheeks are turning red...

Don't tell me!

(Flashback)

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot that I will double your feelings for Shido in this world."

(Back to present)

Σ(°ロ°)

GAAAAAHHH!!! SO IT'S TRUE WHAT HE SAID!!!

"Onee-san, are you okay?" Shido asking if I'm okay.

Guh-! He calls me Onee-san! Calm down calm down calm down... My secret spell doesn't work at this moment!

"A-Ah! I-I'm fine..." Ugh, it's very hard to talk with him I don't know why... "How about you, you fell when we collided, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm okay!" He said with smile.

I have to get out of here quickly before I pass out because of him!

"T-Then I'll go first, okay?" I immediately quickly left there, leaving Shido slightly agaped in front of his house.

Shit shit shit shit! I didn't expect to meet Shido this soon! I hope he forgets we ever met...

Now I'm in a more crowded place, it seems like a commercial area.

Sigh

It seems like what I feared has really happened. My heart is beating so fast just looking at him.

I should avoid him for the next five years.

Well shit.

It's not going to be easy.
