Shizuka Senses a Threat from the Gyaru / Shizuka Asks Shirou to Walk the Gyaru Home ...
In places like the West, after the liberation movement, everyone was having a blast. But targeting minors was absolutely forbidden. You could sleep with female celebrities or male celebrities, but if you slept with a minor, once that was exposed, your life was over.
Because there are many things that children truly don't understand. When someone touches them intimately, they might even think it's just a sign of a close relationship. If someone touches their cheek, pinches their arm, or pats their bottom, they might just think it's playful roughhousing.
Some children easily trust others, but those others may be approaching you with ulterior motives. If they realize this later in life, they may suffer significant psychological harm.
Even some very outgoing children may act impulsively and regret it afterward, yet they are unable to take responsibility for their actions.
Cases like abandoned babies in toilets and internet cafes are all too common, cruel and horrific. While people condemn these girls' depravity and laugh at their blind pursuit of love, who can imagine that the child's father might actually be a conman who deliberately set a trap?
He's a bastard who uses sweet words and money to deceive these young girls, satisfying his filthy desires before disappearing.
He might even be a pervert who enjoys spending time with pregnant teenage girls and then abandons them at the last minute.
This time, the gal girl encountered a guy just like that. He spouted twisted theories about love, but he was clearly not a romantic interest; he was a complete pervert. If Shirou hadn't arrived in time, the girl might have been in real danger facing a drug-addled criminal.
However, at this moment, the gal girl Nao Toukan, still acted carefree, sighing helplessly and saying, "Ah, does this mean I have to quit this part-time job?"
"No, as long as the store has explicit rules prohibiting customers from harassing you outside, the store will protect you. After all, a store doesn't rely on just one person, and blacklisting such a bad customer won't be a problem for the business. Although you might get a few words in the comments, at least your work won't be affected," Shirou comforted the girl.
Chapter 590 Shizuka felt threatened by the hot girl
Japan was once known as the only developed country in the world that allowed the distribution of children's sex films. It had 300,000 people officially employed in the industry, accounting for four-thousandths of Japan's GDP, and they had to pay one-fifth of their income as a "customs tax".
This does not include the underground pornography industry where yakuza companies directly sell pornographic videos in stores, nor does it include Chinese and Korea who are tricked into smuggling themselves into Japan to work as prostitutes, nor does it include minors involved in compensated dating.
Therefore, Japan holds a pivotal position in the world of pornography. In fact, the demand for this industry is enormous, but many countries strictly prohibit it, so there is always a supply shortage. Therefore, as long as it can be done, it can be very profitable.
Therefore, this industry has developed into a very formalized industry, often involving collusion between the legitimate and illegitimate worlds. On the surface, they obtain official and legal licenses, establish brokerage companies, and require employees to sign contracts. Behind the scenes, they are protected by violent criminal groups.
During the day, they would go to film movies, and at night they would accompany guests for drinks in high-end clubs. In the most upscale venues, they could even see several well-known teachers appearing.
Important products naturally receive extra protection. For example, once talented AV actresses become famous, the company will provide them with opportunities to develop in the entertainment industry, becoming singers, comedians, actresses, and so on.
However, the overdeveloped and almost permissive poultry industry in the past also indirectly led to the depravity of minors. At one point, Japan engaged in prostitution and other forms of sexual exploitation, with as many as 13% of female high school students having done so. In fact, a considerable number of male high school students did the same thing.
This is what's known as "living off your father" or "living off your mother." For example, chatting for half an hour can earn you 3,000 yen, or an hour can earn you 5,000 yen. That's equivalent to dividing by 100 and multiplying by 6 in RMB. If you're willing to take risks, you can earn 30,000 to 40,000 yen an hour, which is much more worthwhile than a part-time job that pays 1,000 yen per hour.
However, the law has now been amended, and several comic book artists and light romance novelists who had collected adult films at home have been arrested. The reason is simple: these things were legal back then, and there was no strict regulation afterward, so nobody took it seriously. It's just that Tokyo is going to host the Olympics, and suddenly there was a major crackdown, catching many people off guard.
In places like Kabukicho, a large number of the unique DVDs produced and distributed by yakuza film companies were confiscated, resulting in a severe shortage of new, uncensored films.
However, even if the laws become stricter, some things that people have become accustomed to in the past cannot be easily changed. Moreover, the more something is prohibited, the more people will still find loopholes to exploit.
"Ah, is that so? Shirou, you know so much." Nao Toukan hugged Shirou's arm with an admiring look on her face.
"No... I just happened to know a little bit." In Shirou's dream, he saw himself as the top male host in another world. In this kind of service industry, there are strict rules to protect the male host or the Princess.
This is a consensus in Kabukicho, and only by protecting it can everyone make more money. Of course, the premise is that the girls themselves know the rules. For example, hostesses who work as bar girls, in addition to serving customers in the bar, also have the responsibility to accept invitations from regular customers to go out and have dinner with important clients.
After the meal, you have to find a way to get the customers back to your shop. Japanese people often drink at several different places, and after the first round ends, they'll head to a second, sometimes drinking until dawn. During holidays, customers will also invite you on trips together.
High-end socialites or geisha, for example, are only open to people within their circle. If you're not in that circle, no matter how rich you are, you'll never get to see them.
Therefore, if a nouveau riche from a neighboring country who doesn't understand Japanese, and doesn't have knowledgeable friends or local acquaintances to introduce them, rashly going there to seek out Japanese actresses is almost guaranteed to result in being scammed. Even if arrangements are made, they will likely be made with Chinese or Korea people who can at least understand the language.
Because of language barriers and unclear identities, there are significant taboos surrounding engaging in this kind of gray-market business.
After all, foreigners don't speak the language and don't understand local laws and unspoken rules, which can easily lead to misunderstandings. For example, some brothels only offer partial services, using mouth and hands is okay, but physical contact is prohibited. If you want to try the full service, that's possible, but be careful not to be taken to a ladyboy parlor, since same-sex sex is legal.
Of course, there is another way, which is to find an acquaintance or tour guide to take you into a legitimate brothel. You can buy tens of thousands of yen worth of alcohol for the girls there first, and then you can take them away. You don't need to pay any more money after that. As long as it's not too outrageous, they will cooperate with you.
Because if no money is charged, it's considered a mutual agreement and is legal. But if money is charged, it becomes a transaction, which is illegal.
There are just too many intricacies involved; even a Japanese person who isn't an expert would get confused. Let alone a foreigner. If things escalate and end up in jail, do you really think Japan doesn't crack down on prostitution? They've been watching too much porn; that's 2.5D.
The shops that don't let you go to are usually licensed and don't need customers; they have no reason to cater to troublesome foreigners, which is actually quite good. If it's an unlicensed, shady shop, you could be scammed like a foreign version of a honey trap in no time.
The man who did that was breaking the law, so at least on the surface he was in the wrong.
I initially thought the gal girl would be devastated, but it seems she's not in too much of a problem now. Gal girl's currently hugging Shirou's arm from behind, smiling dreamily.
"Classmate Toukan?" Shirou asked, looking helplessly at the cheerful gal girl.
"Hmm? What, Shirou- chan? Hehe." Fuyuu Nao leaned against Shirou, looked up and answered happily.
"Um... Classmate Toukan, could you please let go of my hand? It's getting too close," Shirou said, looking at the gal girl.
"Eh? But Shirou- sama, it's not a big deal to just stay like this, is it? I was really scared just now." Hearing Shirou's words, Nao Toukan leaned even closer to Shirou.
She wanted to make Shirou feel as much as possible the soft touch of her impressive figure.
"...cough cough cough." At this moment Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and coughed.
"Ah, Shizu-chan ~ Teacher, so you're here too?" the gal girl said in surprise.
"What are you talking about? I was the one who dragged Shirou here to find you!" Shizuka Hiratsuka said irritably. She had come with Shirou to clean up after the girl, but she was ignored instead.
"Sorry, Shizu-chan. It's just that Shirou- chan looked so cool coming to save me that I got so mesmerized." The gal girl stuck out her tongue and said.
"..." Shizuka Hiratsuka finally understood why this child was being ostracized in class...
Chapter 591 Shizuka Asks Shirou to Take the Hot Girl Home
"Really... But luckily I was worried about where you work, so I dragged Shirou to come and check it out, and that's how we discovered someone was following you," Shizuka Hiratsuka said helplessly, covering her face.
"Classmate Toukan is a girl, so she really needs to be careful when going home alone at night," Shirou said.
"Eh~! That's too exaggerated. Someone could use a 'kick to cut off their genitals' to escape at that level... Hmm? Wait! So Shizu-chan and Shirou know each other?! And they seem quite close, how sneaky~!" The gal girl finally came to her senses and looked at the two of them singing in unison with shock.
"That's not the key point, is it?" Shizuka Hiratsuka said with surprise. She found this hot girl to be incredibly oblivious!
"No! No! Shizu-chan! What exactly is your relationship with Shirou? That's the biggest question right now!" the gal girl exclaimed.
"Well, Shirou and I knew each other before he entered school," Shizuka Hiratsuka had no choice but to admit.
"How cunning! I want to meet Shirou, the Shirou!" The gal girl jumped up and said.
"Just how true to your desires do you have to be... though I can understand it a little," Shizuka Hiratsuka muttered softly.
"Yes, Shizuka is like family to me." Shirou nodded in agreement.
"Hmm..." The gal girl glanced at the two of them suspiciously.
Shizuka Hiratsuka said, "Let's not talk about that now. Nao, your current job is really too dangerous. In that case, I can't leave you here any longer."
"But, but... if I stay here for just 4 hours, I can earn at least 10,000 yen, and if I'm lucky, I can earn up to 30,000 yen. The manager will even give me the leftover ingredients. You can't find a job like this anywhere else except selling things!" the gal girl said, her eyes wide.
"No..." Shizuka Hiratsuka covered her face. She realized that the girl had earned more in one afternoon than she did in a day as a student teacher. Moreover, the gal girl's family was indeed in dire need of money, and she couldn't persuade her to do anything.
"Well, I'll be picking up Classmate Toukan from school soon. Let's figure out a way to resolve this matter thoroughly first," Shirou said.
"Eh? Really? I'm so happy~!" The gal girl laughed and tried to hug Shirou again.
"Alright, there's no need to come any closer," Shirou said, blocking the gal girl's path.
"Hehe, because~ I'm super grateful to Shirou me." The gal girl was completely at ease, rubbing her face against the boy's outstretched hand like a little puppy, giggling.
"..." Shizuka Hiratsuka watched as the gal girl took the initiative to approach the boy and pursue him. Suddenly, she felt that the girl's smile was particularly dazzling. Even though it was night, it made her eyes feel hot, as if she had been stabbed and tears were about to flow.
Well, now that Shirou has become a middle school student, she will also be transitioning from a student to a working professional. Opportunities to walk with a boy like this will become increasingly rare, let alone hugging so intimately in the street.
Shizuka Hiratsuka felt like she was superfluous.
But the gal girl are indeed a perfect match, and the girl is actively pursuing her own happiness, doing things that she herself cannot do.
"Shizuka? What's wrong?" Shirou asked, noticing the woman behind him hadn't moved for a while.
"Well, I guess I'll head back first. Shirou, make sure you take Nao home safely." Shizuka Hiratsuka waved her hand, her thoughts in turmoil.
The red-haired youth seemed to sense something, then stepped forward, opened his arms, and hugged Shizuka Hiratsuka, saying gently, "Be careful on your way home, and text me when you get home."
"Hmm..." Shizuka Hiratsuka broke free from Shirou's embrace, took two steps back, smiled strangely at the boy, and then turned and left.
The gal girl looked at the female teacher's expression, blinked in confusion, and remained silent.
"Then let's go," Shirou said, turning to his troublesome female classmate.
"Mmm~! Hehe, thank you so much for tonight, Shirou- chan. I'll remember this forever." The gal girl happily took Shirou's hand and said.
"No, thank Jing. If it were me, all I could do was comfort you at school and tell you which dishes are both nutritious and convenient. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be here tonight," Shirou said calmly.
"Yes, I know Shirou- chan wouldn't come here just for me, would he?" The gal girl pouted, looking a little unwilling, but she quickly adjusted her mood and smiled, saying, "But it's okay~! I was indeed saved by Shirou- chan, so the result is the same, which is fine."
"At home...? Is there still no news of your father?" Shirou asked softly, looking at the gal girl.
"Mmm..." The gal girl tightened her grip on Shirou's arm and shook her head.
Shirou had previously inquired about the girl's situation. He knew that her family was now destitute due to debt. It seemed that her father had been struggling to keep the company afloat, borrowing money at all costs, but in the end, everything was destroyed. Overwhelmed by the burden, he had fled.
The gal girl took out her phone and flipped to the first page of photos. It was a family photo of the three of them: a refined man, a gentle wife, and a girl with a bright smile in the middle.
"My dad isn't a bad person. Back in the company, everyone said he was a very nice person and very generous to his colleagues. Although it was a small company, the bonuses he gave out when he made money were higher than those of big companies. At that time, everyone regarded my dad as a hero."
But later, Japan's economy became increasingly sluggish. In fact, sometimes people felt that it was great that he had run away. They even said on TV that running away is shameful, but it's useful.
My father always shouldered all the responsibilities of the company himself. Even when it was losing money, he used his own savings to cover the losses and tried everything he could to get the company running again. Even in the end, before he ran away, he borrowed money to pay all the wages owed to the company's employees.
People couldn't understand why he worked so hard. He was only fifty years old, his hair was already completely white, and there was clearly no one who would be grateful to him, so why did he still persist?
People who see him drinking alone in the early hours of the morning are actually quite worried that his health might collapse one day.
But unexpectedly, Mom also collapsed.
Even so, she doesn't hate her father. Right now, he's probably hiding somewhere, secretly crying.
The girl lowered her head, her long, golden curls falling down and obscuring the upper half of her face.
Chapter 592 The Shizuka boy will be offered his body by a hot girl
The blonde girl rubbed her eyes, then smiled at the boy and said, "Shirou- sama, I'm fine~! I just need to find another part-time job as soon as possible. If I pay my rent this month, I'll only have fifty yen left, isn't that hilarious~! I'm even worse off than elementary school students on a school trip."
What can you do with 50 yen? According to Tokyo's market prices, a claw machine costs 100 yen per try, a cup of instant noodles that fills you up costs at least 300 yen, and a fast food meal costs 700 yen.
However, given the girl's current situation, even fifty RMB wouldn't be enough to do much.
The girl showed Shirou the bag she was carrying and said with a smile, "Look, I got cherry tomatoes, mini sausages, salmon, lettuce wraps, and bread slices from the shop. I can make sandwiches for my bento tomorrow!"
"Ah, Classmate Toukan is a good girl, so there won't be any problems." Shirou patted the girl's head and said gently.
The girl remained motionless for a long time. When she reached out and touched the head that had been stroked earlier, she finally burst into tears.
Shirou stood there quietly, letting the girl's tears soak his clothes, until she finished venting and withdrew on her own.
The gal girl returned to the kind of cheap housing with a welded iron frame staircase, a space of only six and a half tatami mats, and an area of just over 10 square meters. She composed herself, put on a bright smile, and walked towards the door.
As soon as I reached the door, it opened, and I saw a woman in pajamas with a coat draped over her shoulders, looking somewhat tired, standing there, greeting me with a gentle smile.
"Mommy, I'm home!" the girl called out with a smile. Although it was only 10 square meters, it was now her and her mother's home.
"Welcome back, Nao," her mother said with a smile.
"Mommy, why are you up? I'm sorry, was I late and that's why you were worried?" The gal girl ran up to her mother with a smile and helped her up.
"It's okay, don't worry about me. Nao also wants to play with her friends. Besides, I'm feeling great today. I got up to stretch my legs and just happened to hear your footsteps," Mom said with a smile.
"Come on, let's sit down first." The gal girl helped her mother to the bedside and sat her down.
There was a yellow envelope on the table, with no specific address written on it; it was just there.
"Did Dad send money again?" the gal girl asked.
Mom picked up the envelope and put it into a small box. There were about seven or eight other envelopes like this inside, and the contents of them had not been taken out.
"Ah! That guy called and didn't say anything, just that he squeezed in 50,000 yen this month as our rent. We don't care about his money at all! If he doesn't come back, then he'll just have to sign the divorce papers and send them back, and he can do whatever he wants with the rest! Cough cough cough."
"Okay, okay, Dad's a big idiot, let's not talk about him anymore." A bitter look flashed in the gal girl's eyes, but she quickly recovered and comforted her mother.
In the days that followed, Shirou continued to act as the protector of the gal girl at night. With him around, the perverted man who claimed his uncle was the head of the Japanese police department never appeared again.
When the weekend came, Shirou ran off alone to the outskirts of Tokyo, as if he were escaping from something.
Following behind was a clown-like man who tossed several heart-pounding Magecraft bombs in his hand like a juggling ball. He was an assassin lying in wait for Shirou.
However, because Shirou has the ability to sense danger, he avoids the crowd and is currently engaged in a chase with him.
Boom!!!
The heart that was thrown out swelled up, emitting a molten lava-like light, and then exploded like a thunderclap.
Shirou quickly dodged, and as his heart exploded, the large amount of liquid that splashed out pierced through everything it touched—trees, soil, rocks—leaving tiny black holes everywhere it hit, like tiny insects burrowing into the ground.
"Hahaha, explode! Explode! I don't need any bounty! I just need to explode, that's enough. Come with me! Do you know how many of the Magecraft you crippled were their family's only hope?"
Now, because of you, you've become a cripple, even the Magic Crest within you has disappeared. As a lineage that has been passed down through generations, you've instantly reverted to the very bottom of the Magecraft world. Do you know how many people wish they could grind you to dust?
Hahaha, so they gave me their hearts, made them into bombs, and wanted to blow you to smithereens!
The clown man said, toying with the heart bomb in his hand.
