Kaguya-sama Wants Me to Surrender

Amamiya Natsuki's eyes sharpened. "Fujiwara, bring me another leek to harvest."

The beast-girl vengeful spirit lowered her head in submission, but spat out threats. "...I'll remember this!"

"Everyone can share their opinions and thoughts," Shinomiya Kaguya said, crossing her arms. "Fujiwara, you go first."

"Ahem."

Fujiwara Chika cupped her fist to her mouth and coughed lightly, her voice clear. "First, the vengeful spirits in each patient's room are different, and their personalities seem to vary. Some vengeful spirits can be reasoned with, while others are quite dangerous."

"A player mentioned before that they obtained a skill from a blind box that can detect the presence of important items… They sensed a valuable item on the vengeful spirit in their ward, but they didn't dare to ask or take it."

As she spoke, Fujiwara Chika looked towards the beast-girl vengeful spirit. "That player also said that Miss Cow has an important item on her."

"I'm not a cow!" the beast-girl vengeful spirit snarled, revealing her jagged teeth. "You can tell from my teeth, I'm a carnivore!"

Kujo Asuka muttered, "But you just ate a lot of leeks."

"It's all your fault, you despicable humans!"

"I'm sorry."

"..."

Amamiya Natsuki looked at the beast-girl vengeful spirit and extended his right hand. "Hand over whatever you have."

"I don't have anything on me," the beast-girl vengeful spirit fiercely denied.

"In that case, there's nothing we can do," Amamiya Natsuki sighed, pressing the beast-girl vengeful spirit against the bed. "Fujiwara, come over and take off all her clothes. I've always been curious, people are born naked, so why do they have clothes on after becoming vengeful spirits?"

"Today, we're going to study this thoroughly."

"Miss Vengeful Spirit, please cooperate."

"..."

The vengeful spirit knelt on the ground, her upper body pressed onto the hospital bed. Her voice trembled with anger due to the humiliating position. "Ahhh! Shameless humans, let me go!"

Fujiwara Chika hesitated. "Taking off a girl's clothes…"

Amamiya Natsuki's voice was low and drawn out. "She just called you fat."

"I'm not fat!" Fujiwara Chika's pretty face hardened, and she quickly resolved herself. "I'm coming."

"Kujo, Rikka, you two come too," Amamiya Natsuki added. "Many hands make light work."

"Coming, coming…"

Kujo Asuka's mind was in a daze.

Wasn't it wrong to hold down a tearful vengeful spirit and strip her clothes off?

Why did a sense of guilt suddenly surge within her?

Seeing Fujiwara Chika start to pull at her denim shorts, the beast-girl vengeful spirit finally broke. "Stop, stop! I'll give you the items!"

"Eh, you're giving them up so quickly?" Fujiwara Chika said with regret. "I still wanted to see where the tail was attached."

Amamiya Natsuki helped the beast-girl vengeful spirit up, restoring her to a sitting position.

"The item is in my chest," the beast-girl vengeful spirit gritted out, her eyes misty. "Let me go, and I'll give it to you."

"No need to trouble yourself," Amamiya Natsuki's gaze fell upon the deep cleavage of the cow vengeful spirit, and he said earnestly, "Leave this to me."

"Stare–"

Several girls looked over in unison.

"Natsuki-classmate," Fujiwara Chika said, crossing her arms. "Sexual harassment is a crime, you know."

If we're talking about crimes, barging into someone's room and forcing them to eat grass, you're all accomplices!

"I'll get it."

Fujiwara Chika stepped forward without hesitation, reaching into Miss Vengeful Spirit's chest to search for the item.

"So, so big… My hand is sinking in."

"And it's so soft."

"It's just cold and has no warmth. If it were warm, it would be super comfortable to sleep hugging it."

You're overthinking it. Hugging something this big to sleep, if you accidentally press it against your face, you might suffocate!

"I suddenly understand what the Bible means by 'land flowing with milk and honey'…"

That's the ancient region of Canaan, not some place for you to explore!

A moment later.

"I got it."

Fujiwara Chika quickly withdrew her hand, opening her palm. A small black object of unknown material hovered in the air.

"What is this?"

Amamiya Natsuki gazed at it intently, but unfortunately, the prompt only showed 'a fragment'.

They couldn't figure out what it was for now. After putting away the fragments, Shinomiya Kaguya continued, "I just counted, and there are only eighteen survey forms in total."

That's right, at Shinomiya Kaguya's request, Amamiya Natsuki and the others also filled out survey forms.

Amamiya Natsuki's survey form was very simple.

[Roommate: Miss Sadako]

[Danger Level: Unknown]

[Attributes: Shy, social anxiety, tear mole at the corner of the eye, makes people want to bully her...]

"Is there a problem?" Fujiwara Chika asked, confused.

"The number is wrong," Amamiya Natsuki raised an eyebrow slightly. "There are twenty patient rooms on the fourth floor."

The girl Kujo Asuka guessed, "Two players are trapped in the patient rooms and couldn't get out?"

"At the beginning, a unlucky player was knocked down by the nurse with a needle and was eliminated early," Amamiya Natsuki said. "There's still information about the last patient room that's unknown."

Shinomiya Kaguya pondered, "When the corridor lights up, we'll go to the nurse's station to check the patient room information sheet."

The darkness receded.

The corridor regained its light.

Amamiya Natsuki temporarily let the vengeful spirit miss go and walked out of the patient room with the girls, heading straight for the nurse's station.

"Kaguya-classmate and I can go," Amamiya Natsuki whispered. "You guys stay here."

This trip was just to check the patient room list, so two people were enough.

"Be careful," Fujiwara Chika covered her mouth. "Don't make any noise."

Amamiya Natsuki nodded and quietly approached the station with Shinomiya Kaguya.

Miss Swollen-faced Nurse was still spacing out. As long as she wasn't disturbed while slacking off, she didn't care if players came and went.

"Found it."

Amamiya Natsuki, right in front of Miss Swollen-faced Nurse, gently picked up the patient room information sheet he had looked at once before and finally found something wrong.

The number was wrong.

Each patient room had two people: one player and one vengeful spirit.

The player's name was a nickname given by the game's evaluation, such as Fujiwara Chika being [Cancer of the Earth], Rikka being [Evil Eye Wielder], and others being [Crimson Lotus of Karmic Fire], [I'm Really Not a Loli-con], etc. The vengeful spirit's identity was a string of black squares, which couldn't be viewed.

However, at the bottom of the list, in the registration information for the last patient room, there was only a string of black squares and no player.

"So... there's no player in the last patient room?"

Chapter 52: Gate of Opening, Crackdown on Pornography and Illegal Publications

"This patient room is strange."

Amamiya Natsuki and Shinomiya Kaguya exchanged a look, their thoughts in sync.

Everyone else is living in a couples' double room, and you're living alone in a single suite. What's with this singleton who snuck in?

It clearly meant there was a big problem.

"Let's continue," Shinomiya Kaguya extended a slender finger and wrote on his finger to convey a message. "It would be best if we could find the specific medical record card."

Amamiya Natsuki nodded slightly, "Understood."

Because they didn't know the specific information of the patient in the last room, Amamiya Natsuki and Kaguya could only use the most tedious method of searching one by one, eliminating known wardmates through comparison.

A moment later.

"Found it."

Amamiya Natsuki's eyes lit up slightly, and he pulled out a paper medical record card from the files.

"This is it," Amamiya Natsuki signaled Kaguya with his eyes. "Retreat."

The two left the station quietly, holding the medical record card.

The nurse who wanted to resign was still slacking off magnificently.

"You're finally back," Fujiwara Chika breathed a sigh of relief. "It would have been better to just capture the nurse."

Capturing her wouldn't be a problem; calling her Zhang San, whether she was Zhang San or not, she'd be Zhang San.

The problem was that other vengeful spirits couldn't leave their patient rooms, but the nurse had no restrictions. If she chased them from the corridor directly into the patient room, it was hard to say what would happen.

"Fujiwara-classmate, please get stronger as soon as possible," Amamiya Natsuki said with anticipation. "Once you change everyone's name in the world to Zhang San, our team will be invincible."

"Impossible, give up," Fujiwara Chika couldn't help but exclaim. "How could anyone possibly do something like that?"

"If a person doesn't have a dream, what's the difference between them and a salted fish?"

"It's just a fantasy."

"The hallway is about to get dark again." Shinomiya Kaguya interrupted the two, crossing her arms. "Let's go back to the ward first."

"..."

Amamiya Natsuki felt guilty about how he had pushed Miss Cow earlier, so he led the girls back to his room.

Miss Sadako had crawled out again at some point, standing silently in the corner of the room with her head bowed, looking quite terrifying.

Several girls, including Shinomiya Kaguya, stopped in their tracks.

Only Amamiya Natsuki wasn't flustered. He even had the mood to wave hello:

"Miss Sadako, we're back."

"..."

Seeing Amamiya Natsuki, the 'source of all evil,' Miss Sadako's black hair trembled slightly. Without a word, she turned to crawl back into the television.

As expected, she got stuck in the TV again because her chest was too large, making everyone anxious.

"Natsuki-classmate, aren't you scared?" Fujiwara Chika asked curiously.

Amamiya Natsuki replied calmly, "Of course, I'm scared."

"Liar, you were clearly smiling just now."

That's because you haven't seen Miss Sadako's true face. Next time I'll give Miss Sadako a middle part, and you'll see, then you won't be scared.

A submissive, wifely face.

There's also a tear mole at the corner of her eye.

Aside from her overly pale skin, she perfectly fits the standard for a wife in every other aspect.

As long as they're cute, even vengeful spirits are fine. The heroic Xu Xuan and the undead knight Ning Caichen are all examples.
