By the time Kisaragi Rin turned the key and opened the apartment door, it was already Saturday morning in the Main World.
Although he had returned to school last night, Kisaragi Rin was not in a hurry to appear, choosing instead to continue handling matters in the Workshop.
After all, suddenly bringing three people back to the apartment at night would undoubtedly be quite troublesome, so it was better to first deal with the changes in the Workshop.
Pushing open the door, Kisaragi Rin yawned, took a bottle of iced drink from the refrigerator, and chugged it down, finally recovering himself.
Perhaps because he gained power too quickly, although his intelligence was getting higher and higher, and he no longer felt tired even after several days without rest, Kisaragi Rin was still more accustomed to a normal biological clock.
"Where did you go last night?"
A voice came from behind him; Haibara Ai, wearing pajamas, rubbed her eyes and leaned against the doorframe.
Not having seen Haibara for a few days, Kisaragi Rin also felt a bit nostalgic. He put his things away and casually replied, "I just went into the Paradise. Did anything happen yesterday?"
When Kisaragi Rin asked this, Haibara Ai's expression was a bit strange, unsure how to answer.
Looking at Kisaragi Rin, Haibara Ai then realized that Kisaragi Rin seemed to have become a little more pleasing to the eye, inexplicably gaining some Special feeling.
This was because Kisaragi Rin's charisma had already reached 9 points, while ordinary people only had 5 points.
After thinking for a moment, Haibara Ai decided to tell him normally.
"Ms. Asou came last night."
"Hmm."
"She fell into that hole."
"Huh?"
Kisaragi Rin looked around the living room, confirmed that Ms. Asou was no longer there, and asked with a headache, "She wasn't hurt, was she?"
Being discovered was being discovered; anyway, Kisaragi Rin was not short on money now, just waiting for Yukinoshita Yukino to transfer the funds.
"She wasn't hurt, but she seemed to be quite embarrassed."
Haibara Ai recalled earlier that it was Shiina Mahiru who came up last night to help Miyuri Asou get out of trouble.
It must be said that Miyuri Asou's body truly resembled that of an elementary school student.
"I'll go deal with it later."
Just then, Kisaragi Rin's phone rang. After his journey in the Demon Slayer world, he had also obtained the contact information of Miss Yukinoshita Yukino.
Haibara Ai quietly stayed to the side, watching Kisaragi Rin's changing expression.
"Are the items ready?"
"Yukinoshita Yukino has prepared thirty million yen for you here. Of course, this is definitely not enough, so the apartment you are living in now is also yours."
Yukinoshita Yukino had the phone on speaker on the other end, as the money was spent by Mother Yukinoshita, and she couldn't explain nothing at all.
Mother Yukinoshita and Yukinoshita Haruno were both curious about the other end of the phone. According to Yukinoshita Yukino, the A-rank evaluation she received was entirely due to the other party's transaction.
Then, they heard a surprised voice from the other end.
"An apartment? Is that all? Is Yukinoshita Yukino bankrupt?"
The atmosphere became a bit cold. Under the gaze of the two, Yukinoshita Yukino took a deep breath and explained, "Not a single room, but the entire set. That two-story apartment, including the land, is now yours."
Kisaragi Rin was a bit surprised. Although he didn't care about the price of houses, he knew without thinking that the value of this apartment was ridiculously high.
After all, this was not the suburbs of Chiba, and with the green space, it could cover over two hundred square meters.
Most importantly, he wouldn't have to move and leave his comfort zone!
As expected of Yukinoshita Yukino, she easily achieved the level of expectation in Kisaragi Rin's mind.
"So, when will the thirty million yen arrive?"
After hanging up the phone, Haibara Ai came closer.
"What did you do to earn a whole house?"
"I gave up some rewards."
Kisaragi Rin then began to wonder how Yukinoshita Yukino had convinced Ms. Asou to sell the house.
The Yukinoshita Yukino family had a construction company, so they probably had some means in this regard.
Before Kisaragi Rin could go find Ms. Asou to clarify the situation, Miyuri Asou, dressed in a secretary suit, had already knocked on the door.
She looked around the room, noticed Haibara Ai, and Miyuri Asou's expression stiffened.
"Ms. Asou, please come in first."
In the subtle atmosphere, Miyuri Asou chose to no longer pay attention to Haibara Ai, the elementary school student. She sat sideways on the sofa and handed over the housing contract.
"What is this?"
Kisaragi Rin took a look and found that it was not just about property transfer.
"It's a rental contract. Although the house is yours, I don't want to just leave a place I've lived in for so long."
Besides embarrassment, Miyuri Asou's face also showed confusion. She didn't understand how the house she sold was transferred to Kisaragi Rin, and the buyer even specifically asked her to deliver it.
Leaning in a bit closer, Miyuri Asou rested beside Kisaragi Rin, twirled a curl of hair by her ear, and feigned sorrow, saying, "Mr. Kisaragi wouldn't kick me out, would he? As for the rent, I can pay more."
Miyuri Asou emphasized the word "pay" quite heavily.
Kisaragi Rin looked at her speechlessly. With that petite body, she would probably be pierced through.
"The rent is negotiable. Ms. Asou, please introduce the residents of this apartment."
The apartment had two floors, with four rooms on each floor. Kisaragi Rin was in 202, next door was Mafuyu Kirisu's 201, downstairs was Shiina Mahiru's 102. As for Miyuri Asou, her room was 101. Rooms 203 and 204 next to her were unoccupied, and there were two more rooms downstairs that Kisaragi Rin hadn't noticed.
Miyuri Asou handed over another small bag containing spare keys for each room and the tenants' contracts.
"The resident of 104 is named Yukino Mifuyu. She has a very reclusive personality, but she's a great beauty. As for 103, it's unoccupied."
Kisaragi Rin took out a photo and looked at it. She was indeed a great beauty, but was he the only male tenant here?
"Ms. Asou, let's go check out 203 and 204."
Kisaragi Rin quickly made a decision. 203 and 204 were right next to him. If necessary, he could renovate them and connect the three rooms, which was truly the best choice.
However, Miyuri Asou's gaze suddenly became evasive. She awkwardly drew her legs together and said, "203 and 204 might have a small problem..."
"What problem?"
Miyuri Asou said with some embarrassment, "It seems like these two rooms are a bit haunted..."
After speaking, she couldn't help but shiver.
"Haunted?"
Haibara Ai's interest was finally piqued.
After all, this was not a normal everyday setting, so a haunting might not necessarily be fake.
"That's right, it's haunted. Originally, 203 and 204 were my rooms, until some strange things happened, and I moved out of there, choosing to live in 101."
It was clear that Miyuri Asou had indeed experienced something; otherwise, she wouldn't have run to 101, the furthest room from the haunted ones.
Kisaragi Rin asked, "Since the rooms next door are haunted, why didn't you ever tell me about it?"
"Eh heh~"
Miyuri Asou just stuck out her tongue, trying to act cute to get away with it.
Kisaragi Rin finally understood why he was the only male in this apartment. It turned out Miyuri Asou had dragged him in to ward off evil.
No wonder Miyuri Asou had agreed to his tenancy without a second thought...
