Yusei, puzzled, went to open the door. Logically, it was his first day moving in, so no one should know his address yet.
Opening the door, he found a woman in her twenties standing there. She was quite good-looking, a first-class beauty, but that wasn't the key point.
The key point was that he knew her.
"Auntie Shion?" Yusei's eyes widened as he looked at the mature woman.
The mature woman was also surprised to encounter Yusei here.
"It's... it's Utaha's classmate?"
A long time had passed, nearly half a year, so Kasumigaoka Shion didn't remember very clearly.
But Yusei remembered. Last time, when he went to the police station to handle matters, he had met Utaha's parents, including her mother.
That was the person in front of him now.
Her attire was different from last time, but she was still very beautiful and charming. After all, having an outstanding daughter meant excellent genes from the parents were essential.
"Yes, I'm Kazami Yusei. Auntie Shion, what brings you here?" Yusei politely greeted her.
Yusei had left a good impression on Shion, so she smiled and nodded.
"I heard someone moving in next door today, so I wanted to come say hello. After all, we'll be neighbors from now on. I didn't expect it to be Utaha's classmate."
"It really is a coincidence," Yusei said with a smile.
Moving right next to an acquaintance's house... even if it wasn't intentional, it felt hard to believe.
This apartment building had only two units per floor. The unit next to the Kasumigaoka Residence had been empty until now. Hearing noise today, she came to greet them.
She never expected it to be that young man who had left a good impression on her last time.
Thinking this, Shion felt she should get her daughter to come out. So she smiled.
"Yusei-kun, would you like to play with Utaha for a while? She's always holed up in her room writing some novel. I'm quite worried. As her good friend, maybe you can persuade her to go out for a walk?"
Yusei agreed. After telling Shiro, Kanna, and the others that he was visiting the neighbors, he followed her inside.
The Kasumigaoka Residence had the same layout as the Kazami Residence. The difference was that the furniture was slightly older.
After all, this building wasn't newly constructed, and the Kasumigaoka Family had moved in over a year ago.
Yusei followed Shion to a door painted a pink color.
Looking at this young girl pink... Yusei couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, 'Quite unexpected. Senpai likes this color?'
Seeing the door was closed, Shion stepped forward and knocked.
"Utaha, open up. I have a surprise for you."
"What surprise?"
Utaha's voice came from inside the room, sounding somewhat lazy. She had probably been sleeping.
With a 'click', the door opened.
Immediately, Yusei saw a girl with her pajamas open, hair somewhat messy, wearing only black lace panties, drowsily opening the door.
The moment he saw his Senpai in this state, Yusei immediately made a choice: he turned around without hesitation.
Shion also hadn't expected her daughter to be like this. She quickly entered the room and closed the door.
Then, Yusei heard noises from inside.
"You silly girl, not even dressed properly! Where's your pants? Why aren't you wearing any?"
"The heating is on, and there's no one here. Dad's at work. I don't like wearing pants to sleep."
"Ah, you're going to be the death of me! Didn't you see someone standing there just now? Your classmate! The one named Kazami Yusei from last time!"
"What?! Mom, why didn't you say so earlier?!"
After a commotion, Yusei sighed silently.
He had seen everything clearly, but it definitely wasn't intentional. It was Utaha who actively provided the 'service'.
…
After a while, the door opened on its own.
Shion came out, her face still carrying a hint of embarrassment.
"Yusei-kun, you two chat... I'll go get some snacks and drinks for you."
"No need to trouble yourself, Auntie," Yusei said politely with a smile.
"Hehe, you chat first. I'll go prepare something."
Shion left, and Yusei looked into the room.
Unlike her disheveled appearance from before, Utaha was now fully dressed, her pajamas wrapped tightly around her, and her messy hair simply combed.
It was as if nothing had happened.
However, her slightly flushed cheeks proved that something rather awkward had indeed occurred here just now.
Yusei spoke first, smiling, "I never expected Senpai to have the habit of sleeping naked. Is that your secret to good writing?"
"Shut up." Utaha glared at Yusei, her face bright red.
Although she usually acted boldly, when someone actually saw something they shouldn't have, she would still be shy like any ordinary girl.
When it came down to it, she was just a young girl who had never been in a relationship.
Opportunities to actively tease the sharp-tongued senpai were rare, and Yusei had seized this one.
He began to look around Utaha's room.
Utaha's room was different from the kind of girly, pink, cute boudoir Yusei had imagined. It was extremely simple.
There were cute stuffed animals, but overall, it felt like something was missing compared to a truly girly room.
Seeing Yusei's puzzled expression, the blush on Utaha's face faded somewhat, and she spoke.
"Surprised that my room isn't the pink, 'nya~'-type little girl's room? Or have you lost interest in me?"
Yusei looked around once more. Hearing Utaha's words, he nodded.
"I am indeed curious. But losing interest is impossible. Just now, I was very interested in your panties."
Thump!
Utaha threw a pillow at him. It's an ordinary black pillow, but it carried a sweet fragrance.
"Senpai, what brand of shampoo do you use? The 'Utaha' brand? Smelling this scent makes me want to buy shampoo until I go bankrupt."
Utaha's face reddened as she glared at Yusei, gritting her teeth.
She understood that she had completely lost the upper hand.
Ever since that incident just now, the initiative had been firmly seized by Yusei.
'I needed to find a way to regain control.'
Thinking this, she snorted lightly, "Want my panties? It's not impossible. If you lick my feet, I'll give them to you."
