Chapter 4

At four AM of the morning, Carlo is already in the market. Unlike the busy atmosphere the market emits when it’s evening, the impression it gave is a relaxing and a quite one. Every vendor is busy preparing their merchandise.

“Oh Kid! You came!” Carlo is greeted by the old man. The old man is wearing working clothes while Carlo is wearing a fitted and easy to move clothes.

“So what are we gonna do?” Carlo asked. “First, help me with this container, be careful though those are heavy because they’ve been filled with fish and ice” “Ok” Carlo casually replied.

And after that they head towards the shipping place. “Hmmp!” The old man shouts as he carries the container in his left shoulder. Carlo then imitates him and carries two containers on his left and right shoulder. “Whoaw! Kid you’re strong! You’re stronger than me in my younger days! HAHAHAA!” The old man happily stated.

“The hell are you saying old man? You can’t even call these heavy” Carlo muttered to himself. Carlo too is surprised by this, he expect Kyoshiro to be strong but not this strong. It’s like Koutaro Kyoshiro is made to be a fighting machine. He thought.

The work progresses smoothly as Carlo tripled the man power in an instant. “I thought that it would take some time to finish our work, but I guess I can relax for a bit” The old man said. “Hey, where’s the payment” Carlo asked. He can’t afford to not have the payment since he have no money left in him.

“That’s right, here 500 yen, come back tomorrow if you want some more!” “Yes, yes” He said that and then left. Carlo thought that going back to his house would take some time and resulting him to be late at school so he’s planning to change his attire at the public comfort room at the near park.

While Carlo is walking, he could feel the cold wind slowly piercing his clothes. “Damn it’s cold” He muttered. Lately, I’ve been sounding like a delinquent character or something. Every time I open my mouth, I always spout insult and get easily carried away especially when I’m angry. And speaking of angry, I’ve been easily angered too. He thought.

He feels creep out whenever he thought that he’s slowly turning into another person slowly but surely. As he reached the comfort room, he entered one of the cubicles inside the mens room. When he’s about to take off his clothes he hears something crying.

“N-no please…..” Carlo suddenly got a goosebumps, he can’t help but feel scared when he hears that. I-is that a ghost? Shit, I can’t physically fight a ghost. Carlo decided to be quite for a moment as he listened to it attentively.

“HAH…..HAH…SSHHH BE QUITE…. OR ELSE ONII-CHAN HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO USE THIS KNIFE ON YOU” “No please…..”

But what he hears is scarier than a ghost. It was a conversation of a small girl and an adult man. And in Carlo’s mind a certain things immediately comes into his head. No fucking way!! This scenery is like... a loli hentai. He thought as he turns pale. The sound is coming from the womens room.

Based on the conversation earlier, it looks like the man has a knife with him I should be careful here or else... He thought. He stealthily exited the mens room and enters the womens place. Carlo makes sure that every step he made is not making a sound.

“Please stop…..” Just bear with it a little Carlo talks to the girl with his thoughts. He finally reached the cubicle. The door is locked! Shit how should I deal with this! Carlo must be fast but silent at the same time, it’s not an easy thing to do especially if you’re under pressure.

“Now… steady” Carlo could hear the mans voice. *Clingk* And then he noticed a sharp sound. *ZIP* and then follows up a sound of zipper moving. Maybe he finally put his knife down!

Carlo then look at the floor, there’s a space where you can see the feet of the man. “Onii-chans gonna enter….” “HIH! ”

Carlo saw the feet are moving a bit. This is bad He thought. Carlo then grabbed the left foot of the man. “ACK!” He said as he fell out of balance. Taking this chance, Carlo breaks the door with his full force.

“KYA!” What inside is a little girl, she has a long black hair. Her face is small as what’s to be expected from a child, her eyes were shining in gold along with tears in it. She was wearing a white one piece dress that’s curled up exposing her white small tights.

Carlo could see the knife that’s lying on the ground, and then he sees the man reaching out for it while he’s in the ground. Carlo not wanting anymore troublesome scenario crushed the hand of the man by stepping really hard on it.

“GAA!!” The man then screamed. But Carlo did not stop, he stepped the face of the man too thus the saliva is all around the floor. “Tch, patch yourself up” Carlo said towards the girl while stepping on the man. Without the moment of delay the girl replied with “YES!” while lowering her dress to cover her bare legs.

“Wait me outside” Carlo asked—no commanded the girl to wait outside, Carlo probably wants to talk with this man personally.

The girl nodded in panic and goes outside. “Well then…. What are the odds that I will encounter some real hentai shit in the real world? Not only that, it’s a NTR mixed with some loli in it…” He said in bewilderment.

“W-watch your mouth! Despite looking like this I am an influential person! People immediately recognize my face!” “Is that it? Then let’s change your face a bit to see if it’s really true” Carlo smile as he let out his hostility.

In the next morning, people finds out a blood stain on the floor, a bunch of chirped teeth and an unconscious man lying while his head is on the toilet bowl.

****************************************************************************************

“Can you tell me the reason on why you’re here, a little girl walking alone in a middle of the street while the sun hasn’t rises up yet?” Carlo said with a stern tone, although he didn’t intended this, his voice would normally exaggerate his little emotion like being displeased or being annoyed.

The girl was scared by this though, she grabbed her dress as she muttered softly “I’m buying at the market…” “In this hour?” “Yes… not only the people are fewer, the price would be low or sometimes they would give me a free sample” She replied.

“Why the hell little kid is doing this? You don’t have a guardian or something?” “I have one but….. I have a nii-san but he’s a hikikomori and also a neet….” “Onii-san huh? Is your Onii-san is fat, wearing glasses and sometimes would stare at you for too long?” Carlo asked.

“How did you know!” “Shit…” While the girl is showing an amused face mixed with admiration, Carlo is showing the opposite. There’s no way that would happen right? I mean that kind of thing only happens in the fiction world not in the real one…. The Carlo is racking his brain right now, because of the incident earlier he can’t keep his heart calmed down.

And the girl has its problem too, just earlier she was nearly raped and to be killed but when you look at her now, you can’t tell if that’s really true. “Hey, can you tell me how did that bastard manage to get you in the comfort room? Did he use the knife?”

“T-that, he just told me that he will give me a ton of money…” “And you buy it?” “I can’t help it, I desperately need money since Nii-san always spend our money on his toys” “Figurines…Uhum! In that case, do you have a phone with you right now?” Carlo asked.

“Yes I have” The girl then took out a flip phone. “You still using that?” Carlo asked. “I don’t have enough money to buy a smartphone” She said. “How the hell did you manage to live with that kind of life?” “Sometimes, a good old man would give me money just to accompany them for an hour and they always bring me to some dark streets and I will asked them if what are we gonna do they will say something like “Just wait until the people around us faded” or something like that, in the end the time ran up and I leave them” She said as if it was normal.

“You…. I don’t know if you’re lucky or the opposite… Any way stop doing that” Carlo stated. “Why? It’s the only way for me to earn money” She said. “I will provide you money, give me your number” “But Nii-san said that I should never give my phone to stranger” “Fuck him” “EH!” The girl was surprised by Carlo’s action.

She never expect that someone would curse in front of her without reservation and further more it was his brother that being bad mouthed.

“Also where’s your house?” “M-my brother also told me that I should not tell our address” “Who the fuck cares about your half pig Onii-san” “What!” The girl shouted more loudly than before. And soon the girl gave up and led Carlo to her house.

The house has a second floor, it has a small garden and a small gate, there’s only one window on each floor. “The garden is well trimmed” “T-thanks” Carlo has a little background in gardening, because the business that his mother and father opened is a flower shop he would help them sometimes if he had a time.

“Rukawa residents… So what is your name?” Carlo asked the girl… “My name is Rukawa Yuki” “Good then, my name is Kyoshiro, from now on before you leave your house I wait for me and I will picked you around four AM” Carlo said.

“B-but why?” Yuki asked. “Since I worked at the market, why not we go their together right? It would be more safe if two of us go there together and also, if something weird is happening don’t be afraid to call me” He replied. “I see…. Then I will enter the house now, Bye bye Kyoshironii-san” She said and then enter the house.

Carlo for some reason didn’t move. Kyoshironii-san huh…..Nii-san……I guess I have no choice but to protect her. Carlo thought. Even if the Yuki didn’t call ‘Kyoshironii-san’ He would still look over that girl, because Carlos sense that something very bad will happen if he didn’t.

Her personality is so similar to that character in a hentai, they would pretty much do anything as long as you lure them something they want. I must look after her especially to her Nii-san, even though I didn’t see her Nii-san in person yet my instinct is telling me to watch out for that man.

Carlo then looks at his watch. “Good thing I changed before we go out” Carlo said as he was heading to his school.

Unlike the first day of Carlo’s school, he properly wore his school uniform as to not irritate the violet haired girl. As Carlo walks, he finally reached the school gate and as expected the girl was here.

The girl immediately gazes at Carlo as if checking him, and then the gaze turned into glare. I think that’s normal though, anyone would be angry or pissed of someone beat him along with his friend.

As Carlo passed the girl, he could hear the girl clicked her tongue but he decided to ignore that for he doesn’t want to stir up problem.

“Another troublesome has appeared” Carlo muttered. The girl who named herself Cassandra is looking at him from a distance. “It’s true that I said that she should keep her distance to me but what I really meant is stay away from me and leave me alone” Carlo said.

Cassandra is waving at him while saying “Good morning”

Carlo entered his classroom and per usual the carnage of the harem boy can be heard. “Good morning desuwa” “Good morning Jin” “Jin-kun good morning” Again huh?

“Good morning too……” “Jin? What are you looking at?” “Nothing” All of them continue to talk to each other until the teacher finally entered.

The lesson proceeds smoothly. *KKRRIINNGG* The bell finally rung, Carlo take off his bag but a person suddenly interrupted him. “Wait Kyoshiro-san” “What?” What now? I have so many things going on Carlo thought but waited and listen to what Jin is saying.

“You…You’re not the real Kyoshiro-san right?” “……………” Silent. Carlo regained his composure and reply with unease. “What are you talking about” “You know what I’m talking about, like you I am transported to this world and reside in this body”

“What the hell…..”
