My girlfriend is actually myself.

Chapter 33 The Shura Field of the Madam, Miss, and Son-in-Law

Seeing the convenience store bustling with activity, Yuko Takahashi felt a little better. Sitting in the dining area, she took out her phone, searched for a few funny jokes online, and sent them to Airi Asakura.

Good news, Airi Asakura replied. Bad news, she replied rather slowly. The girl who used to reply almost instantly now took a full minute to send a message.

It would be strange if everything were normal. Yuko Takahashi breathed a slight sigh of relief, and at the same time became even more determined to stick to her single strategy.

In her opinion, Airi Asakura is one of the most outstanding girls in terms of both appearance and personality. However, even such a girl cannot have a smooth relationship and can even be said to have suffered a complete defeat.

If this woman, who is approaching thirty, were to enter the dating scene, she would surely fail miserably, and might even lose all her retirement savings.

but……

She looked up towards the cashier. The black-haired boy and the blonde girl maintained their perfect understanding, their hands seemingly connected to a single brain, working in harmony across their two bodies.

He and she seemed to know all of each other's habits and thoughts; their bodies existed separately, but their consciousnesses were intertwined.

When Yuko Takahashi first observed the couple, she felt that they interacted too little, talked too little, and were too silent. Now, she thinks that they may have been communicating in ways she didn't understand.

Is it a smell, a sixth sense, or brainwaves?

Yuko Takahashi doesn't plan to get married, but if she meets her own Yukimiya Natsume or Shiraishi Saku, she feels she can change that plan.

After staring at them for a while, Yuko Takahashi noticed something different. Previously, the two of them did not have a specific division of labor when they worked together, and they did whatever was convenient. But now, the two of them had preferences.

The task of serving oden was basically handed over to Shiraishi Saku, and the task of counting money was basically handed over to Yukimiya Natsune. Even the two cash registers were moved, with the shorter, older-style cash register placed in front of Yukimiya Natsune.

These two are actually still working on improving their teamwork!

"How wonderful." Yuko Takahashi lay on the table, feeling envious.

……

Not good at all! Tsukimiya Aoi crossed her arms, her eyes flashing like lightning, and poked Shiraishi Saku all over.

Shiraishi Saku took the oden and handed it to Yukimiya Natsune, who then passed it to Tsukimiya Aoi.

Asakura Chihaya stood to the side, head bowed, looking at the hem of her skirt. She, a mere maid, couldn't interfere in the power struggle between the lady, the young lady, and the son-in-law.

Tsukimiya Aoi took the oden and glared at Shiraishi Saku twice. She wanted to eat what Yukimiya Natsume had taken!

Shiraishi Saku clicked his tongue inwardly.

He is clearly Yukimiya Natsune, and the coffee shop agreement was signed by him controlling the girl's body. In short, he is Tsukimiya Aoi's new adopted daughter.

This mother of his actually looked at him with such hostility.

This is so heartbreaking for my daughter!

Tsukimiya Aoi ordered another cup of coffee, hoping to get a handmade version of Yukimiya Natsune's coffee. Shiraishi Saku shattered her fantasy, as all the procedures except for the final handing gesture were completed by the boy.

Filled with deep resentment, Tsukimiya Aoi left the convenience store.

She walked past the waiting car at the door and into the alley next to it. Asakura Chihaya reached out to help her mistress carry the bag, but Tsukimiya Aoi refused.

Despite the interference of that bastard, these two items were at least handed to her by her adopted daughter, so she wanted to keep them herself.

There was no one in the alley. Tsukimiya Aoi held a coffee cup and carried a bag of oden, standing there without speaking or moving.

Asakura Chihaya stood quietly to the side, knowing that her wife had once again lost her temper.

Unlike the stereotypical image of wealthy women in TV dramas smashing things when they're angry, my wife would find a corner and stay motionless when she got angry.

"When is she coming home?" Tsukimiya Aoi asked, finally getting angry.

According to the agreement, Yukimiya Natsune must go home two days a week.

"Miss Yukimiya didn't say. I'll ask her on Line after she finishes her part-time job," Asakura Chihaya replied.

"Ask her again when she broke up with that other guy!"

Chihaya Asakura didn't dare to reply.

"How did that man manage to deceive her! How could she be so easily fooled!" Tsukimiya Aoi recalled the turning point of the coffee shop agreement, feeling annoyed.

All the benefits he had mentioned earlier were useless; his maid's mention of the man was enough to win the girl's heart.

Asakura Chihaya observes her nose and her mind.

Tsukimiya Aoi continued to grumble for a long time, venting her dissatisfaction to Asakura Chihaya, a small portion of which was directed at Shiraishi Saku, and most of it at Yukimiya Natsune.

"Meow?"

A cute voice interrupted Tsukimiya Aoi. Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw a black cat crouching at their feet, blinking its amber eyes and looking at Tsukimiya Aoi adorably.

Tsukimiya Aoi lifted her foot and rubbed the black cat with the tip of her shoe. Looking at the cat's obedient and docile appearance, she smiled and said, "Even a cat is more well-behaved than her!"

To reward the obedient black cat, the noble Lady Moon Palace handed the coffee in her right hand to the maid, condescended to kneel down, and stroked the black cat's back as a gesture of favor.

Before her fingers even touched the black cat's fur, the black cat, which had been lying down, suddenly sat up, its cuteness in its amber eyes turning into a thuggish air!

The time has come, let's ambush, meow!

Tsukimiya Aoi screamed and fell to the ground, spilling the oden she was carrying in her left hand all over the floor.

The cat's paw stepped on her lower abdomen, then it snatched the fish ball skewer from the oden and ran away.

Foolish humans, they fall for it with just a little seduction, meow!

The cat was making so much noise at home, and this string of fish balls is the price to pay!

Fish balls, so delicious!

The bodyguards outside the alley noticed the situation and rushed over, but the black cat had already disappeared from their sight.

Asakura Chihaya helped Tsukimiya Aoi up. Lady Tsukimiya was somewhat frightened by her first robbery and gripped Asakura Chihaya's arm tightly.

The bodyguard nervously apologized, but Tsukimiya Aoi patted her chest and waved her hand in forgiveness.

The noblewoman looked in the direction the black cat had fled, and laughed angrily: "I misjudged it. This cat seems docile on the surface, but it's actually quite wicked."

She looked at the spilled oden on the ground, the bodyguard squatted down to clean it up, and Asakura Chihaya went back to the convenience store to buy more.

……

After serving Asakura Chihaya oden, Shiraishi Saku and Yukimiya Natsune were off work.

They changed their clothes, went home, ate the dinner prepared by their sister, did their homework, and then turned the two chairs in front of their desks to sit facing each other.

Saku Shiraishi continued his twin experiments.

Without directly accessing her memories, he had the girl's body recite the message that Asakura Chihaya had just sent.

"Chihaya said we're going to register our identity and get all sorts of documents tomorrow," Yukimiya Natsune's voice was clear. "After that, we'll go to the Tsukimiya family home to visit Grandma at the nursing home. Chihaya said I need to learn how to impersonate Tsukimiya Ruri."

The disappearance of her granddaughter three years ago severely impacted the mental and physical health of the matriarch of the Tsukimiya family. Tsukimiya Aoi's suggestion that Yukimiya Natsune impersonate Tsukimiya Ruri to comfort the matriarch was not merely an excuse.
