Let's Grill Them Together

Fushimi Makoto remained completely unfazed.

After a while, Yukino seemed to mutter to herself, "That's right, you've always had a lot of amazing qualities, so it explains why my physical abilities have improved so much."

"That's how it is." Fushimi Makoto smiled.

Yukino has experienced the most things with herself, so even if she encounters something incredible in the future, or if there are changes in her, she can find a reason for it.

"You've helped me again," Yukino said softly.

She initially accepted Fushimi Makoto's training program, but she never expected such significant progress.

"I'm not greedy, I just want to see catgirls..."

Fushimi Makoto could finish speaking, his extraordinary senses detected a familiar scent.

As his gaze passed Yukino, he indeed saw a tall, voluptuous, and beautiful figure walking towards him.

That's Kasumigaoka Utaha.

The moment her eyes met Fushimi Makoto's, she immediately blinked, signaling him to be quiet.

Unaware of what was happening behind her, Yukino continued interrogating Fushimi Makoto: "What happened after the catgirl? Why don't you explain yourself clearly?"

Fushimi Makoto was about to speak, Utaha, who was already standing behind Yukino, reached into her handbag and took out a cat-ear headdress.

Fushimi Makoto: "?"

The next second, Utaha smiled and grabbed the headdress, putting it on Yukino's head.

Yukino jolted, almost jumping up.

When she turned around and saw Utaha laughing non-stop, she was stunned.

She reached up and touched her head, then paused for a moment.

"Does this mean that just because you say 'cat girl,' she appears?" Fushimi Makoto's light voice rang out from the side.

Yukino's face darkened, and she ripped off her headdress. "Kasumigaoka- senpai, what do you mean by this?"

Her aura seemed to turn somber.

If this weren't a public place, Fushimi Makoto believes Yukino would have definitely pinned Utaha to the ground...

Chapter 272 Torture Together

Utaha clearly sensed the fierce aura emanating from Yukino, and she instinctively took two steps back to create distance.

She then quickly added, "I just wanted to verify if a certain guess was correct."

Yukino remained silent, her face cold.

Fushimi Makoto sensed that Yukino wanted to know the reason, but she was too angry to talk to Utaha.

So he was in charge of asking the question, "What guess?"

Utaha said calmly, "We mentioned cat ear headbands at your house last time. Yukinoshita was very calm at the time, as if she had worn cat ears many times before."

Yukino's icy expression changed slightly.

Fushimi Makoto: "Is this what you wanted to verify?"

"That's right."

Perhaps Yukino's imposing aura was too intimidating, because Utaha not only didn't deny it, but continued, "I figured you guys must have been busy with post-production these past few days, and since I had some free time today, I decided to come and check it out."

Fushimi Makoto gestured with his eyes to the cat-ear headdress in Yukino's hand. "So, before you left, you remembered your hypothesis and wanted to take this opportunity to verify it?"

"That's how it is." Utaha secretly observed Yukino's expression.

But as soon as she finished speaking, Yukino sat back down.

The cat-ear headdress was also thrown onto the table.

Utaha paused, her gaze filled with astonishment.

She was all prepared for the storm, but Yukino just sat back down.

He didn't even utter a harsh word.

This isn't right!

Fushimi Makoto also thought of this.

Moreover, he could tell that Yukino hadn't calmed down.

Yukino's sudden sitting back down, instead of confronting Utaha as usual, suggests that something big is about to happen.

Especially after Yukino coldly said, "I'll finish my business first and then have a proper talk with my senior."

Fushimi Makoto became increasingly certain that Kasumi was about to be severely tortured.

Utaha was also aware of the danger, but she wasn't one to back down easily, so she naturally wouldn't think of running away.

Moreover, she felt that her physical fitness had improved a lot last time, and these days no matter how busy she is, she will exercise on time.

Therefore, Utaha believes that she has become stronger again and may not lose to Yukinoshita this time!

Comparing their figures, she felt that "the advantage was mine."

After lunch, Yukino continued working hard in the studio, just like yesterday.

Fushimi Makoto sat beside him, occasionally offering advice.

Utaha didn't disturb the two of them, and sat in the back with her legs crossed, looking quite bored.

During this time Fushimi Makoto turned around and his eyes met Utaha's.

He hadn't paid any attention at first, but to his surprise, Utaha actually put her leg down, then lifted her left leg and switched to crossing her other leg.

The entire sequence of movements was executed flawlessly, with incredible fluidity.

Fushimi Makoto's eyes followed her snow-white calves as they moved.

Because of the high temperature today, she wasn't wearing black stockings; the hem of her skirt just covered her knees, completely exposing her fair calves. She was wearing a pair of black open-toe sandals, which, if a girl with unattractive feet chose, would essentially be deliberately highlighting her flaws.

But Utaha's little feet are very beautiful, delicate and slender, with round and cute toes neatly arranged one by one, and her cardamom-colored toenails as clear and smooth as jade.

Coupled with her deliberate flirting earlier, Fushimi Makoto's gaze was drawn to her, and he made a decision in his mind: when Yukino tortures you later, I will join in.

Disobedient Xia Laofei deserves to be tortured!

Utaha was unaware of Fushimi Makoto's thoughts.

She noticed the other person's gaze following her legs, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up, forming a very beautiful curve.

She didn't know why, but the thought of Fushimi Makoto sitting next to Yukino, and that Yukino was aware of her little actions, made her feel inexplicably happy.

She wanted to tease Fushimi Makoto a little more, but he looked away.

This made her feel bored again.

Another busy afternoon passed before the three of them returned to the street. Fushimi Makoto could ask them where they were going to have dinner, Yukino preemptively said, "I'll buy some groceries on the way, and I'll cook at your place tonight."

Then, she looked at Utaha with complete ease. "What about you, senior?"

"I'll join too," Utaha insisted.

Yukino gave a soft "oh," then said something Utaha didn't understand, "This was your own decision and choice, wasn't it?"

Here it comes!

The big one is coming!

Fushimi Makoto a straight face and quietly focused his mind.

"What are you talking about?" Utaha frowned slightly.

Yukino didn't explain, but simply continued in a flat tone, "Let's go buy groceries."

And so, Utaha arrived at Fushimi Makoto's house, filled with questions.

But as soon as she changed her shoes and stepped into the living room, Yukino was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped and turned around.

Utaha asked in confusion, "What?"

Yukino looked at Fushimi Makoto first. "I need to use your room."

Fushimi Makoto: "Okay."

Then Yukino met Utaha's gaze. "Just like last time, I need to have a private talk with you."

Utaha was taken aback.

She smiled.

"So that's what you meant by what you just said? Yukinoshita, you're a bit arrogant. How can you be so sure that I haven't improved these days?" Utaha, indicating that she had also learned grappling techniques.

Yukino didn't bother with any more words and turned to walk towards the bedroom.

Utaha confidently followed.

This was her own decision and choice!

Two minutes later.

Fushimi Makoto outside the door, clearly heard Utaha's humiliated cry, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Aren't you going to admit your mistake, senpai?" Yukino's voice was much colder.

"I will never give up!"

"I see."

After saying that, Yukino called out towards the door, "Fushimi, could you please come in for a moment?"

"Wait, don't let him in yet..."

Amidst Utaha's flustered cries, Fushimi Makoto entered the bedroom.

As soon as he entered, he saw Yukino being pinned to the ground by Utaha.

Compared to Yukino's confident demeanor, Utaha's long hair was quite disheveled, and sweat beaded on her forehead. Her originally fair face was flushed from the fierce resistance, and her well-tailored dress was pulled up, revealing a small section of her rounded thigh.

Utaha noticed the gaze Fushimi Makoto was giving her, and she felt even more ashamed. "Yukinoshita, let me go!"

Yukino ignored her and turned to Fushimi Makoto, asking, "Do you have any rope at home?"

"A rope?" Fushimi Makoto aback.

Utaha blushed. "Wait, Yukinoshita, what do you mean? What do you need the rope for?"

Yukino finally lowered her head to meet her gaze, a slow smile playing on her lips, "I still remember the prank you played on me during dinner earlier."

Fushimi Makoto understood; she had already planned to deal with Utaha after returning home.

It's about using a rope...

He hasn't forgotten his new ability.

[Old Man's Rope Technique: As Old Deng, you're no longer as strong as you used to be, so you need props to achieve your goals. When you demonstrate your rope skills to someone of the opposite sex, their emotions will ignite instantly, and afterwards, both of your internal organs will experience a significant boost.]

[Note: This effect can be stacked with the Fantasy Badge; the host can combine them flexibly.]

In Fushimi Makoto's original plan, he intended to make Sawamura Sayuri the first experimental target.

But now...

"Fushimi?" Yukino's voice rang out.

She was urging him on.

"Yes, I'll go get it." Fushimi Makoto said and left.

Although this did not align with his original plan, he had already made a decision: to torture the disobedient Utaha together with Yukino.

As soon as he left, Utaha, who had been pinned to the ground, panicked completely. "Yukinoshita, can we talk?"

"Are you kidding me at this moment?" Yukino said coldly.

Utaha closed her eyes resignedly, gritting her teeth, and said, "I've lost today, and I'm willing to be tied up by you with rope, but you absolutely cannot tie me up in a strange way."

Yukino looked puzzled. "'Strange'? What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing." Utaha suddenly realized that Yukino definitely never reads these kinds of manga or novels.

Although Yukino still had doubts, she didn't press the matter further.
