That night, a little after eight, Mitsuo knocked on Banri's door.
"Yo. Did you take a nap?"
"I thought it would be a waste of time, but by lying on the bed I ended up falling asleep. And you?"
"It's the same for me."
His body is distinguished by his handsome appearance more than anything else, his best friend comes into the room with his feet full of socks and hands the plastic bag to Banri.
NANA-senpai had told them to take a nap earlier, as they would work until morning. He also told them to bring something to eat, although he did not know when they would rest. Thus, Banri had cooked white rice, and Mitsuo had bought some side dishes.
Always a bit worried about the money that Mitsuo had no reason to refuse an invitation to work one day for the sake of good money, he easily met the requirements of NANA-senpai. In doing so, the two of them came today.
Handing over part of the change, divided into cents, Banri began to prepare an easy dinner at once. Mitsuo, who had already come, who knew how many times to visit, sat cross-legged as usual on the side of the low table, while Banri went around collecting copies of "Bros TV" and sheets of report paper scattered about. And then, while fiddling with the remote control, he looked down at the table.
"Isn't that your phone making noises?"
"Oh, here's an email. Not a big deal."
The incoming message light on the Banri charging phone keeps flashing.
He served the cooked white rice into the appropriate bowl and took it to the table, once again to the kitchen and brought the bottle and tea glass, he then looked at his email.
"Kokou?"
"Yes. It will wait until after we eat and drink tea. If I don't answer right away, he hangs up. While we turn into Choushuu Koriki."
Mitsuo laughed, perhaps imagining Kouko, her head tilted to one side, a perfect smile fixated on her face, asking her not to hang up the phone, but it was no laughing matter.
Lately Kouko .. from what Banri has seen since the part-time job issue emerged.
Worrying excessively, even neurotically at small things, such as slow responses to his emails (usually because he doesn't pay attention to them), why did she come late for college (because she went to the bathroom), why was she so quiet now (she was not aware she was silent), which was the funniest? Eh? You can't tell the difference? …Why? Are you ignoring me?
And next.
After college, she held on tight to him the whole time. He can't even hang out with friends. As a human being, he wanted to have time for himself, but could not have that much. Looking at her objectively, her days continued to be rather stressful.
Of course, he didn't say anything to Kouko about today's work.
Lying to her that she had forgotten about the report in the class that Kouko did not enter, and to hand her over tomorrow she had to withdraw all night, they parted after the third hour and she went home. When Kouko began to follow, saying "I want to see you working on your report; I can shut up," she refused, saying "Sorry, but if I don't really concentrate this time, then, I'll be in trouble! "
Because it was for the sake of bringing Kouko to the sea, she was not worried about feeling guilty. In addition, he feels that way from the start, saying that he does not want Banri to take the job, Kouko is on the verge of leaving her right path, straying to her selfish side.
And most importantly, number one,
"It sure sucks, how Kouko held you so badly."
"No …? Honestly, it's not so bad."
… Because it was his true feeling, because he felt it.
He did not stay still and keep his distance because it was annoying or troublesome. So I guess I had no choice, Banri thought tonight, having no intention of blaming himself.
The messages from Kouko, as always, are silly things. Things like 'I drink black tea ☆' Is that ~? Without variation of answer. Every moment, every moment, like this. Good morning, good night, meal time, I eat, I paint my nails, I clean my nails, I'm tired, I'm hungry, our cat, my little sister, hot, cold, fun, boring fun, boring, where are you now? What the hell are you doing? Do you love me? How many? Hey, hey, hey ... Banri's cell phone prediction text algorithm is already like this: "So" becomes "Isn't it?" "I" becomes "I'm also ~", "Un" becomes "Un Understood" and "I" becomes "I love you too!" … It is on its way to becoming fully trained.
But, he doesn't mind. Not everything.
Although it was not a matter of laughing, it was not a difficult and stressful road, and while he fell into the situation, Banri still enjoyed himself a great deal, and was also happy. For a girl like her to be so insistent towards a guy like her.
At the end of the day, very simply, she feels that she is in love with Kouko.
Even if she caused him some undue trouble, to be honest with him it felt good. Passing thirty blank letters per day was enough to make him smile. Even in pain, or being depressed, or becoming ill, she was so cute that she couldn't help it. She is really, really happy with how Kouko loves her, how she is obsessed with her, and she can't get enough of it.
If he completely lost days like this, or moments like that, he did not know if he would be able to find happiness in this life. Life would be really boring and meaningless, he thought. It's gonna be completely empty.
Really, that's how he feels.
Those things ..feelings towards Linda being revived, not saying anything, swallowing her to the best of her ability, it seems like her emotions towards Kouko are not diminishing. In Banri's heart there should only be one of them; the love of two people cannot live together there. Regardless of whether he would hate himself like that or not.
He wondered if it was something that people were good at, and recently it even felt so. He wondered if everyone was like this. Or, with a problem they call amnesia, he wonders if he will become like them, given how his own personality has not completely hardened.
Things could not remain like this indefinitely; he wondered if things would fall apart, that someone would be severely injured, and there would be failures that he could not bear to witness.
… He wondered, in this process, would his heart change?
Which of his multiplied self would perish in the end?
He wondered if he was just at the beginning of the adventure.
"I'm glad you met and dated Kouko, really."
Mitsuo said that right after he started greedily eating his food.
As soon as he sent a short reply to Kouko, Banri turned around and looked at that profile. He was indeed handsome, stuffing food into his mouth that was wide open just like a young man would. With mixed feelings, partly astonished, partly guilty, Banri stared at him for a few seconds.
"…How?"
Or something, he asked back, a little foolishly. Hm? Mitsuo stared back at him.
"What do you mean, 'How could that be?' Since you know, I don't think just any man would accept the stalker's failure. You tolerate that very well. "
"… Well, of course I know. L loved her. Kouko, that's it."
"But isn't there a limit to that? I've been watching how you and Kouko get along since the beginning, and for me you've been crossing that line for a long time. The two Dimensions were somewhat interested in him. In abstract. He's always around you, isn't he? "
"Hehe…"
While putting down his phone, Banri puts himself on the table as well. Taking the rice bowl and the chopsticks in his hand half pretended, he waited and laughed.
The wound under the bandage under his mouth was of course still there. Not even wetted, it hurt something ferocious.
"In general it's not, but since there's incredible love, it's okay."
"Whoa .. It's been a long time since I heard Banri talk about him. Of course, it feels a little creepy."
While he ate the side dishes with a pleasant rhythm of feeling, Mitsuo laughed even more. Looking at that handsome, healthy, and smiling face, he wondered how different it was from his own face.
Healthy and unhealthy. Handsome and unattractive. Honest people and people who lie. Someone who is prosperous, and who claims to be. Just like positive and negative beings, which are completely opposite.
Somehow the chopsticks did not move, Banri closed his mouth right then and there. He wondered how a person like himself would appear in Mitsuo's eyes? And then in Kouko's eyes. In Linda's eyes …
Suddenly, he felt as if he was looking in the mirror.
(It's okay because you love her, right?)
Tada Banri, eat it up, sit still.
Kneeling in front of his own desk, in his own room, he held a chopstick in his right hand, a rice bowl in his left.
With his injured lips still swollen, yet to recede, the bandage remained on his face. She was wearing her usual blue jeans and a big t-shirt. Her disheveled hair was too long, and it seemed like Banri did not notice how much was visible from behind.
(You have a guilty conscience, and feel remorse for thinking about things like 'I want to go back to where Linda is', so if you can accept, if you can be forgiven, … that would be fun. )
That close we could almost touch my nose, I stared back at my former self, right next to his face in the flesh. I wanted to find the color of honesty and falsehood in his eyes.
(That's disgusting.).
"…"
He wondered who was muttering.
From beside him, Mitsuo gently stabbed the unmoving Banri, his eyes staring blankly into space, at the elbow. Returning to himself, he saw that face.
"What's wrong? Eat up! Didn't Senpai from next door say he'd come around at nine?"
"…Ah yes…"
"Waiting for the table, eh? This is my first time. I think the drinks will be prepared, of course. I don't like taking care of drunkards and cleaning up after them …"
"… Ah, I wonder how it will be? I didn't hear too much detail about what we were going to do."
"If it's like working as a host, what are we going to do? We'll be forced to chat. Even though we're both kind of quiet."
Without worry, he had a refreshing smile.
Without Kouko next to him, he considers him handsome and without inferiority. Easy to get along with, he's usually a very nice guy. He felt happy, from the bottom of his heart, that he had become his friend.
That Kouko naturally fell in love with the man, even Banri could understand completely. If she was a girl, she would probably fall in love with him quickly.
Instead, he still did not understand very well why he had clearly dropped one level off from Yana-ssan who looked cool, or so it seemed.
In Kouko's heart, Yanagisawa Mitsuo and Tada Banri are both present, but now only Tada Banri remains, yet he wonders how it could be in such a world. He wondered if it was because he had confessed his feelings to her after she was clearly rejected by Yanagisawa Mitsuo. Is it just one thing that really undoes his ten years of unrequited love?
Clearly, Kouko had chosen one that was of lower value. When he thought about it again, it was a strange part that he could not understand.
He didn't lose his memory like he did.
Even so, he wondered why this kind of thing could happen ... how in the world?
After all, a woman would understand how to do those things, of course.
Banri, who was once again lost in thought, was brought back by a knock on the door. That rough voice. Ferocious knocking style.
"Ah, it might be NANA-senpai."
Banri put down the chopsticks, but, uh,
"I'll get it."
Inserting the final bite into his wide-open mouth, Mitsuo stood up. Banri turned and looked towards the door.
Outside the door, as she expected, was NANA-senpai standing there in her usual cosplay.no, in punk clothes, not waiting for Mitsuo's reaction when she saw him, no,
"Hmphs. You must be the one they call Yana. Now I get it. You're really pretty, aren't you?"
"Kyaa !?"
He suddenly lifted Mitsuo's T-shirt on the edge to verify his stomach. He only said one word, "Alright!", Then, turning towards something that Banri could not see in the outer hallway,
"Linda, that's great!"
He said something like that.
Banri pulled out and dropped the hamburger he put in his mouth.
Tonight, he and Mitsuo will leave and be introduced to a part-time job by NANA-senpai. That's plan.
But he did not hear that Linda would also be there. "Oh! Hello, good night!" Mitsuo's voice rang out from the entrance hallway, sounding happy.
* * *
The situation was confused from the beginning.
"Which one!?"
Mitsuo was unable to choose between the extremely tight-fitting silver boxer pants and the meat-colored bikini trousers in lame gold.
"Uu, uuuuuu ~~~~ …!"
He's like "The Thinker." Or maybe, he's just a cool looking guy with constipation.
Sitting with her upper body naked, she broke out in cold sweat and compared the two undershorts with a look of despair on her face.
"Hurry up and decide! Then wear it! Hey you, are you ready !?"
Openly exasperated, he threw two pairs of undershorts at Mitsuo, and the gaze of the mysterious person turned towards Banri. Suddenly stand up,
"Hey! I'm ready!"
"Hey! I'm ready!"
"You're ugly!"
He was showing off, yet at the same time being spat on and ridiculed. And again, and again,
"But it's kind of sexy too …!"
His hands, decorated with rings, shifted suggestively, gently sweeping the inner thighs. Did ya? I'm sexy? The masked middle-aged man, in a big hat they called 'Boss', wearing a golden suit like Dandy Sakano, left, leaving the strangely moving Banri and the half-naked Mitsuo behind. When a suitable staff exclaimed, "Oh Boss, today's the mask party, isn't it !?" he flirtatiously replied, "I'm a Phantom! The Phantom of the Opera House!" He is Dandy Sakano, even though he didn't say it.
"Well, Yana-ssan, you better make a quick decision!"
"Oh, ooh .. but I'm really just a little lost ... ah, what should I do !? Shoot, to think the day will come when I worry about something like this!"
If he used the silver one in his right hand, it would be invisible. And then, in case of a cloth cover, his butt will be safe.
The flesh-colored bikini held in his left hand was too thin. It has a T-back as well, and is curved in such a way that it will not accommodate its lower area or its butt adequately. But he told the Boss, "You should give me another ten thousand for me to wear this here."
Somehow, in just this one layer of underwear, Mitsuo could not help but expose his nudity that swung into the public gaze. That, overall, was the work that had been given to him tonight.
Then before him, a handsome man, who looked like a foreign model, who seemed to have been given the same task as Mitsuo, ran around a little, beer in one hand, a little, wearing bikini-style shorts in meat. Speaking of a raw atmosphere, there, in his lower region, heavy things swayed. Unconsciously, he followed her with his eyes. The figure from behind, naked in the back was better than Mitsuo's, stealing words from his mouth.
In the spacious, but warm and dark back room, there were twenty other workers tonight, each of them in costumed costumes and moving about uneasily. The heavy bass background music that echoed began to sound through the curtains being hit over and over again, along with the muttering of the crowd. From the kitchen area often comes sounds that can not be understood. Looks like the show has already started.
The place NANA-senpai takes them by car is the same live show venue that she remembers taking Kouko to.
Today they do parties based solely on reservations. Together with their sponsor, the "boss", when they enter the local there is already a line of guests outside, from young people to suspicious-looking parents, everything is very striking, he said, they all have questionable gender. She wondered if anyone had a birthday, taking part in a cosplay party. Crowds of people, wearing beautiful dresses and suits, costumes, women's clothing, men's clothing, from cartoon characters to serious transvestite queens here and there, everyone with an original style that suits themselves, like only on Halloween. They are sucked into a secret basement, accepted by the Chemical Brothers to play hard enough to split their ears.
As he looked at the crowd, even the shrewd Banri realized that it might be quite a difficult job. Mitsuo, upon seeing Banri's expression, fell silent as well. But, with NANA-senpai and Linda on both sides of them, their faces did not care, they both had no choice but to prepare themselves.
As soon as NANA-senpai introduced them to the boss, she undressed Mitsuo's shirt, submitted the*************** and told him to go to choose which one he would use. When that happened, the boss picked up the T-shirt, buried his face in it, sniffed it like crazy and finally announced, "What is this thing !? It's disgusting! Never wear it again! I'm confiscating!" Therefore, Mitsuo had already decided to go home half naked.
At the time, something seemed to go wrong, with Banri and Mitsuo given different roles,
"If you're confused, what if I choose !?"
He's fully prepared. Have extra time for now,
"Anyways, one of them is embarrassing. Therefore, shouldn't you just do it !? In an inch, in a mile!"
He had planned to make a judgment, but the extremely loud music that could be heard leaking him prompted him to speak, and Banri handed it to Mitsuo the flesh-colored bikini.
"Eeeh !? Seriously …!? Seriously …!"
For a moment Mitsuo was at a loss for words, those so transparent limp pants were still holding tightly in his hands, his breathing held back. Now, now,
"Don't you mean .. the opposite! You instead! Aren't I embarrassed enough !? Aren't I a little respectful !?"
Slowly, he looked at Banri. Banri looked at himself once more.
"I'm used to it! I've accepted how I look!"
Banri, among whom was the opera Dandy Sakano commented, "You may be an ugly girl, but you are i," wearing a downy wig, a bob, silver hair, a bustier in a goth-loli style, and, and black maid uniform mini skirt.
She had received temporary makeup, but for now, even if she said it herself, she was really ugly. An open chest, somewhat boned, the feeling of his arms where they come out of his swollen arms, the gentleness of his legs where they open under the garter, wherever you look, he said, his body shape was a thin young man. . Indeed, his style as a pathetic cross-dresser. This is how Banri looks like tonight.
"Well, with these cut lips, you know, 'You look like a servant who has been harassed by his master! And the reason you were harassed was because you were ugly!' … The boss said that, and here's the result! "
"Oh, ho …!"
A silver tray under his arm, an earphone he carried attached to one ear, a wireless receiver inserted into a pouch draped over his shoulder. When she saw what she was like in the mirror, a dry laugh came out from her lips.
"… I know what you mean. It stood up a little. I hid mine."
"Good!"
Hiding Mitsuo by spreading a frilly mini skirt, like covering him with flowers, Banri played the tip of his wig with his fingertips. He felt a stiff lace on his chest, arranged the folds in the cloth, applied his wound to his wound and made sure it was smooth and color-matching.
For some time now, the deafening rhythm of the bass made it trance. This must be how a girl feels, he thought, when she is captured by a mysterious sensation. His high-heeled legs protruded naturally straight forward, trying to breathe, strangely they were being watched. The high-heeled Kouko must live in a world like this every day of her life. Aware of her hair, conscious of her clothes, attentive to her makeup, aware of her legs, and so on over and over again. He admires a great sense of aesthetics, aiming for perfection.
"I ... understand .. but …"
Mitsuo groaned with a very thin voice. When Banri looked back at her, she was practically naked.
"… I wonder, is this, going to be okay …!?"
Tension appeared on his handsome and dashing face, and every time he moved the shadows of his muscles looked mesmerizing. His body is like a statue.
On the other hand, a lame center of sparkling flesh-colored bikinis shouted out to the rest of the world, "Ev-er-y-body! It's something lewd!"
"… You, you're fine! You're so cool, Yana-ssan!"
Mitsuo who was very shy styled his hair neatly, and, looking desperate, raised his head high. The jeans, underwear, and socks she removed were thrown into the chair.
A black man dressed like a Chinese girl .. or maybe a very tall girl, in any case one of his co-workers for tonight, he said, passed by carrying a silver tray like Banri's and whistled at him.
"Thank you! God, no wonder I thought it was a lot of money! It's not just an ordinary job, for that kind of money!"
"However, Yana-ssan, with the invisibility pants you get 10,000 yen!"
"If Chinami sees me like this, I might die!"
"Tidaa, doesn't Oka-chan usually run with her? Laugh crazy, then wave the camera !?"
"No, it can't be impossible not! I won't stand it! What if Kouko sees you like that?"
"Yes! Kaga-san might even be good with this, and let me look as if it's normal!"
It's not about not wanting to be seen in women's clothing, but more about lying and working part-time, however …
"really? But of course, you're pretty cool about it! I mean, the way things are right now, I wonder what kind of people dress like that? NANA-senpai and Linda!"
"They said they had to change, and disappear. I haven't seen them for a while now!"
"There's no way they're like this!"
Mitsuo said, pointing at himself,
"No way!"
"No way!"
Banri laughed out loud, but at that moment,
"Ooh !? Yes, Yana-ssan ... isn't it !? Uh, Tada Banri !? Wow, NANA-senpai, look!"
"Well, that's amazing!"
That's Linda and NANA-senpai's voice. Look back at the two of them,
"Eeeh ... Uh …!?"
"No, aren't you two fantastic !?"
Reflexively, Banri and Mitsuo pointed as well, and the two ended up pointing at each other.
Linda and NANA-senpai dress exactly the same, in exactly the same way.
Their wigs are like Banri's, cut to the jaw, but purple. They wore devil horns attached to hairbands, earphones in one ear, and a pouch with a wireless receiver inside.
The only thing covering the top of their body was a scanty black top.
Secured only with thin straps around the neck and behind, upper chest, back, abdomen, armpits, and navel, in the darkness everything appeared open, appearing pure white. And despite being exposed like that, it doesn't feel erotic. NANA-senpai is very stoic and very thin, with Linda being so calm and extraordinarily beautiful, she wonders if they are from the same planet. What's more, as a matching couple, they have twice the character, so to speak.
The lower half of their bodies were dressed similarly, with shorts, lame tights and knee-high boots, silver trays in one hand, both equally.
"We are the 'Devil Twins'!"
Nana-senpai. When that happened, there was a lighter and three cigarettes were put in a bikini bra over her flat chest. The deep bass tones shook the painful-looking piercings that extended from the ear lobes to the cartilage, making them tremble in the darkness, mysteriously glittering like a call.
Meanwhile, Linda, a little embarrassed, hid her chest with her tray, she said,
"But the Boss told us, 'You guys have no attraction at all! Such skin and bones, you will wither and die!' I mean…"
He laughed in a loud voice.
"Both Yana-ssan and Tada Banri are no match for each other!"
He looked at Banri and looked at him sharply. The makeup on her face was much stronger than usual.
The face of NANA-senpai, with that makeup, was hardly different from usual, but the face of Linda, who was shaped like that, was like the face of a stranger.
His eyelids are painted dark by eyeshadow, his eyeliner is raised sharply, giving the cat's eyes an effect. She wears shiny false eyelashes. He had applied the staining to his narrow brows, as if it were just lips.
Though usually he was only light-bodied, neatly arranged and easy on the eyes, with makeup that he turned into a completely different person. They look exotic, they feel beautiful. He had a small face, it was the shadow of a very young girl, but with a cold gaze that looked extremely low and deliberately cruel. Her stomach was quite solid, for a woman, and she wondered how much attention their three-dimensional appearance drew from those around her. How he got it, he did not know, but made to dance with his clever and deft movements, they made the demons-Linda look more conspicuous.
Not airing, walking lightly, naturally, just .. It was Linda's normal image, but tonight she was completely the opposite. Everything's upside-down. He was a terrible demon, the thing itself, danger dripping from him.
"Li, Linda …"
As if interested, Banri's mouth approached Linda's ears. But at that time, the volume of music was increasing all around them,
"… Senpai, this is not your first time at this job !?"
"Hm !? What !?"
His voice could not reach the woman anymore.
"Well, that's the word! Everyone is working! Move!"
The staff in suits clapped and sent a locked part-time to the hall.
Mitsuo was too nervous to move, but the stranger who was dressed the same as him came over, whispered something in his ear, and immediately started rubbing Mitsuo's body with oil. Banri was a little surprised by the style of his non-disguised hand movements, but Mitsuo looked rather determined, and took the oil in hand and began to spread more and more throughout his body. Combing their hair as the finishing touch, the handsome men gathered there began to disappear behind the curtains. Incidentally, with all of them wearing colored bikini shorts, it seemed like he had made the right choice.
Pushing Banri from behind, NANA-senpai jerked her chin.
"All right, start moving! Do you know what you have to do !? First of all, go to the bartender with a tray and get sake. Move among the customers as much as you can, and don't take anything for yourself! If you receive a request, go ahead! Likewise, when you go with food, take nothing for yourself! The bartender girls made them for all of us! Keep the collected glass and trash for us! Read the mood well, be part of the view, and be cool, calm and collected! "
"No, gotcha! Oh yes, mobile …"
Banri's phone had been put in a bag bag and left behind the chair. He intended to put it in a pouch wirelessly while he was working, but,
"Mobile !? You can't, no way, it will make Boss really angry!"
Being rebuked like that by Linda, she gave up. Well, he thought it was inevitable. That's work.
While pleading that it not be stolen and hiding the bag under the chair that could not be seen, Banri followed Linda and NANA-senpai, passing through the curtains as well.
The tense, hot, and humid air, the laser beam that cooked up the retina, and the loud explosion from the ruptured knock right in front of Banri's body all rushed in to attack him.
* * *
Winding among the people who danced happily, the age-appropriate wand of light was placed on their sweat-covered bodies here and there, Banri paced the floor in high heels.
"There's a good one! Give me for the sake!"
When a forty-year-old woman, wearing a loose dress, one layer, one piece, a silver whistle stuck to her cleavage, shouted in her ear, Banri stopped.
When the party had just begun, even though every time someone called him, he would reply, "Ah, yes, sir!" "It's the menu!", the boss will shout at him, "You're too doubtful!" and put three pieces of gum in his mouth at once. He could handle the disgusting taste, so whenever he chewed on it, Banri obediently continued to chew on the now flavorless gum.
As he did so calmly, he would glance from side to side. With a simple nod, he would dodge.
From here and there the weapon will reach out to itself and place an empty glass in its silver tray. After enough, he would walk to the bar table. They look like glasses, but in reality they are lightweight plastic cups, and no matter how much is piled up, they are harmless.
Choosing the appropriate drink from the one already prepared, he returned to the person's place. She had to forgive herself twice, bump into very enthusiastic guests and spill sake on them.
After handing over the sake and collecting the empty glasses, he received instructions via wireless to hand out the hors d'oeuvre. He thought it was definitely time for them. Almost everyone danced like crazy, endlessly. Without a doubt, they all need calories.
The party became very crowded.
Around midnight the birthday song was heard. It took some time to blow all the candles on a big cake for a lady guest of honor (she looked young, but when she peeked in the kitchen, there were 45 candles there), but if you think about it, it's a good idea, it was a way of telling a unique time.
Who knows how many hours passed after that? More and more guests, sake keeps flowing, there are famous guest DJs that Banri is not familiar with, and adults who should know better to play around endlessly.
In the midst of it all, when he turned his head to see what people were cheering on, he could see scattered here and there around the individual pedestal hall, with foreign models in meat-colored bikinis showing off their wares (no touch!). Suddenly, the Boss took off his golden suit and jumped up to dance on one. His Calvin Kleins screamed, clinging tightly to his posterior. When it was seen that her loathsome stomach was smashed against the other man, and they were both entangled as if they were pushing their hips together, the excitement of the old women who saw everything at once rose. However, before long, the Boss, brandishing the fingers of his two outstretched hands, shouted, "Gets! The gets!" As you might have guessed, he did not have Dandy's presence. At least take off your socks, he thought.
When he looked towards Mitsuo with his own base, his face said clearly, "I'm glad he didn't come here!" It was easy to see that when he met Banri's laughing eyes, he also showed a gentle smile. As it was passed by that smile, the women stared and stared.

Amidst the flashing lights and dancing boisterously, Mitsuo's skin shone brightly. His burly and muscular body was still young, and as beautiful as an animal. Even if she did not attract the attention of foreign models, raising both her hands high, flexing her stomach to music, wasn't she rather great?
One time, while in the restroom, he said, "The strangers told me that it's okay to be a fake cat, so that's what I do!" sweat dripped slowly from his face as he breathed heavily. Between this and that, it even seemed like he was having a good time. Swinging his shoulders as if fanning and cooling him down, he composed his expression as cool as he could, turning the hot gaze out of touching distance, he said, being one with other beautiful things that bring the hall to life and just for one night anonymously channeled the wild enthusiasm of those around.
He is in a mental state where he doesn't even understand it, Banri thought.
Tonight is sliced out of Tada Banri's life, and as far as he is concerned, it is, unexpectedly, not bad.
In this unusual environment, he was transformed into another person completely. Chewing gum while feeling cold and creepy, he became like a machine, just doing his job. So time passed. The music and deep rumbles transmitted through the high heels to his hips, spine, and even skull, continued to give an as if making him numb, and in the dark, he said, the garish lights danced wildly, as if they wanted to.
His five senses were painted by an extraordinary, his ego was painted with the image of others, his body was enslaved to the job: he himself had no room for choice in this matter. Surprisingly, it tastes good for now.
Without having his own body, he would have passed this brilliant night.
As he leaned over to fill his silver tray with hors d'oeuvre, he seemed to feel someone touching him, as if wanting to catch him. He turned.
The devil .. Linda, laugh.
He looked at Banri, his bare skin soaked in sweat from the heat, his cheeks, collarbone, and shoulders gleaming wet, and as far as he could tell in the darkness, his face was also red. Then,
"Are you not tired !? Are you okay !?"
While a heavy stomp pushed her hips gently towards him in time with the music, Linda yelled in her ear. Between this and that, his ears were already completely dull.
"No fun! Somehow, I'm kind of hooked!"
Closing her ears closer to Banri so she could shout back to him, the purple wig stuck to her cheek by her sweat, Linda nodded.
"Surely like that! It was also something fun for me, and it was actually my fourth time working on an event for the Boss!"
"Wow! Do you usually dress like that !?"
"No! It's not fixed! I've done a lot of kinds!"
Their bodies were both hot, both of them were soaked in sweat, if they were just sober, they were both stuck together on the shoulders. If they weren't so close, they wouldn't be able to hear each other.
And,
"You two are there, you are so cute! Can we take a picture !?"
A group of really drunk girls were shouting and pointing their phones at them. The confused Banri stammered,
"No problem!"
In the mood for that, Linda pulled Banri's shoulder and posed as if they were dancing together. Kyaa! The girls became excited, and other guests began to notice them. She felt Linda's tights on her inner thighs. Hot body. Goosebumps, he creeps all the way to his spine.
But, if they were to draw attention to themselves here, it would be completely uncool, and the mood would be ruined. In order for her to somehow match Linda's sharp movements and bounce, Banri wrapped her hands around Kate's waist.
Winding her hand with Banri's, Linda bent her waist forward and backward gently, in tune with the rhythm. His gaze was confident, he was clearly having fun. As if directing the people's gaze, he slowly flicked his white fingertips.
Tonight, in this place, they are not Tada Banri and Hayashida Nana, but a dresser who chews gum and a cat-eyed demon.
They are two bodies, with no past, present or future, with no connection to such things, for the present only, limited to this place, existing only in the present.
Thinking it was funny, one of the guests put an incandescent stick in Linda's mouth. Receiving it gracefully, Linda bit the tip with her front teeth while she raised the tip of her lips with a smile.
He thought, I want to do that, right now.
Without reason, purpose, or desire, Banri's body just moves. Placing her arms behind Linda's back, she forced her back, supporting her with her legs. Leaning his body at her, he bit the tip of the light stick.
Cheers are getting up and getting hotter, deafening. The beats are getting further and further away. Linda squinted slightly like a cat, as if to see the color of Banri's eyes.
At that moment, at the end of his gaze, he saw a pair of extremely beautiful shoes.
They are high heeled sandals, made from fine, but have a beautiful profile.
It suddenly flashed through Banri's mind: To wear such shoes, a woman must be a match for them. He also knew what it was to wear high heels, but he was not the type of person who forever stood at his fingertips while remaining conscious of his own body. He wondered, how could one sacrifice, in pain, to support their own weight on something so tall yet so small?
Moreover, his ankles were very slender, his calves were tense. Her knees were also slender, and her legs were truly beautiful. Model, or star? An actress? He wondered: when he walked, were his feet not fully elevated in beauty?
And then, in the middle of her thigh, she saw the tip of her skirt. It has the appearance of summer knitting. When she looked outside, she saw a one-piece dress with no ruffled sleeves. At the base of her neck was a necklace, and she had a matching bracelet.
It was a woman with a rather ideal shape, thought Banri, strangely carefree. Her face could not be seen, but even though she could not see into the face, she felt an aura that shouted "There is beauty here!"
She wondered, was she born as a woman, would she tidy her hair like that, so fancy? Would he hold a clutch bag under his arm like that, expose his slender shoulders like that, and show off his perfect appearance to the public like that?
Indeed, absolutely perfect …
"…Huh…!?"
Gum clogging his throat, Banri spat out the light stick he held in his mouth.
Reversing his body, he saw the perfect form of that person.
Getting lost at this party, wearing a branded one-piece dress, the perfect beauty with a beautiful face that is as scared as possible. The perfect smile. The perfect standing figure.
The woman: The perfect Kaga Kouko.
Taking one step towards Banri, who was still holding the Devil .. instead of Linda's shape, her perfect and beautiful face had not moved a single millimeter, yet,
"… The Bah …!"
He poured the sake in his glass into Banri's face.
His eyes and nose. He threw his head back, coughing as if he was about to drown, unable to speak. How's Kouko here? Hows it? Wh why?
"You're wrong, Ko-ko-chan!"
His voice echoed, as if he was shouting.
"You're wrong! Look, it's me, Linda! Nana Hayashida!"
Taking herself and coming out of Banri's arm, Linda frantically raised her voice.
He realizes that Kouko's lips are moving, saying, "I know it." Then,
"… ngh!"
His open hand floated up and slapped Banri's cheek hard. And then, for some reason, there was applause from all around. The fever and wavy rhythms do not stop.
