Chereads / A Retired Hero: New World Harem / Chapter 4 - (CHAPTER 4: YUI)

Chapter 4 - (CHAPTER 4: YUI)

"Looks like she escaped." A few investigators circled around what seems like a debris of a suit. "Searched the entire ruins, no corpse, not even a drop of blood." One added. "Better get her back before she managed to spill out our beans." One of them suggested.

"But it had been almost a week, will it be too late for us to search for her?" Another one spoke out his problems. "If she blends well, and with such training, we would lose her forever." "A hundred meters drop, must got a wound on her. She won't be too far." Suddenly a man appeared in front of the investigators. "Who are you? This is a Global Government business." The rest asked, shocked to the presence of this man. "I am hired by the Global Government to assist you and from now on, I will be the lead investigator." He tipped his head as he took out a black and white to show the rest.

"My name is Heart, and yes, it is my true name." He introduced himself. "This is Eyes, and Ears. We are Team Sense, ranked 150 on the Global Government Ranking. And from now on, we will be taking full control to this task." He pointed at the two figures beside him. "And unlike you, we had already set our target onto someone, someone that may be responsible to keep 0519 from us…" He took out a photo from his pocket and toss it to the investigators. "You suspect this café worker?" The investigators look at the image and questioned.

He let out a grin.

"Exactly"

"W-hy d-o you s-a-ve me." She stuttered. "Shut up." I blow the herbal porridge before shoving a spoonful of it into her mouth, her face twitched in bitterness. "Life is goddamn precious, that why would I save you." I answered as I continue to fed her. "Your cooking sucks." She stuck her tongue out, trying to wipe the bitter herbal taste within her mouth. "Feels like mud."

"You will feel better after this." I place the empty bowl back at the sink to wash it. "And after that you can had something better, like chocolate." "Ch-ooco-latte?" She asked out, confused. "You will know it sooner or later." I answered. "Ding- "Someone rang the doorbell again. "The cops again?" I mumbled under my breath, with one hand I grabbed the door knob while with the other, I gestured her to hide beneath the blanket.

I let out a deep, deep, and when I mean deep, I mean a deep ass breath before opening the door suddenly. I should've installed a small peephole or whatever, because I wouldn't have to experience all of that later on. "Happy Holiday Zeo!" The moment the door opened, a girl leapt in front of me and greeted. "Yui!" I acted surprise; she visited my house? Where did she get my address? She cares about me? Inside I felt warm and fuzzy, but one look at my bed is enough to send me back to fight or flight mode.

"Can I get into your house?" She asked, tipping her toe and look over my shoulder to see the insides of my house. "No, I mean yes, of course… but no, you just came at the wrong time-" "I travelled for an hour just to meet you." She stared at me upon seeing my reaction, her eyes appear a bit watery, did I just make her cry? "It is very cold out here…" She rubbed her arms; cold breath escape her mouth as she breathes. Okay I gave up, I let her in.

Yui is a former co-worker of mine, or more like she is boss, because she owns the café, and I am just a worker there. She is a bit older than me, I am like twenty-eight, she is a year older, so twenty-nine, I guess? She is your everyday tomboy, short haircut, dark chocolate hair, black pupils, flat chested, short, your average "a homie that you surely won't fall in love with" starter pack. "Your house is cosy here." She sat on the edge of the mattress and spoke. Little did she knew behind her is a girl hiding beneath the sheets. She takes a deep whiff of the air. "Your house got a girly scent." She spoke. "Did you had any girls staying here…"

"NO!" I screamed right at her face, maybe I am a little over the top, but if you put your foot into my shoes, you will get the feel. "Alright, alright, don't scream at me." She waved her hands and chuckled. "You can sit here actually." I pointed at the small pillows circling the coffee table, the only thing I wanted right now, is to get her ass away from the bed.

"I will get you some tea." After making sure she is staying at her spot, I headed to the semi kitchen of the house, preparing some tea for her. Maybe after she get warm, I could send her away, right? No, no, no, she travelled an hour just to visit me, if I sent her back that would be way too rude. But that girl… She couldn't hide forever, and if she does, she wouldn't even last am hour beneath those heavy sheets.

"Ah!"

Yui's scream bring me back to the physiology debate within me. I immediately place down the work in my hand and rushed back. "What happened?" I asked out, had she been found out, that fast? No, one stare at the bed she is still beneath there. Then what happened, one look at the TV, I knew something much worse had happened.

Shit,

Erm…

I think I forgot to unload the hentai disc from the player.

And it is still running.

I am so fucked.

I dashes towards her and snatched the tv control from her hands. Somehow, in this situation, the remote malfunctions. After several failed attempts to close it, I literally flung it towards the television before stumbling my way to unplug it. It after all that chaos all those fapping and loli moans were silenced. What followed was a moment of awkward. This feeling, feels like someone is waving at you, you waved back, but later realises he is waving towards the people behind you.

"I can explain!" I grabbed her on the shoulder, trying to wash these sins, what will I be right now. A creep? Will I be fired? Exiled? Blackmailed? I may or may not be a little exaggerating, because the two of us fell back onto the bed behind. "Er… The hentai, you watched…" She bit her lips and opened her mouth as she asked. "You like, short haircut, petite tomboys, right?" She asked, placing her hands on her burning face. "Right?" She stared at me, the situation changed from awkward realisation into something I had read hundreds of times on manghwas, and boy oh boy I knew exactly, EXACTLY, what I would do next.

I stare at her, she stared back. Those eyes seem to guide me to my next action as I lean my face towards her. So close, I could feel her warm, sweet, milky breath on my face. She opened her mouth and closed her eyes, I too did the same, and just when our lips were about to connect, I forgot, there is a third person in this room. "You are so heavy!" Someone kicked her by the back as two of us fell aside.

"I am going to die suffocating and you are making up on top of me?!" She unravel the blanket as she gasped, sticky sweat cover her entire body. "She…" Yui stare at this barely naked girl lying on my bed. "You…" She stare at me, tears started to escape her eyes, rolling down her cheek. "I am sorry!" She apologized before making a run towards the door. "Yui! Wait!" I tried to grab her hand but instead I hit my knee onto the coffee table and stumble to the ground. Once I get up, she is already gone.

"No…"
