What he didn't know was that after Yusa received the address, a breathtaking smile appeared on her exquisitely beautiful face.
Beside her, there was also a frozen blonde snake-girl.
----
Trash Fox Detective Agency.
After hanging up the phone, Kawashima Toya put down the receiver, only to see Yuigahama Yui staring intently at his face with wide eyes.
Startled by Yui's sudden closeness, Toya asked, "What do you want?"
A gleam of wisdom flashed in Yui's large eyes, like a detective who wouldn't miss a single detail.
"So strange."
"Yukinon, don't you think so?"
Yukinoshita Yukino's cool, beautiful eyes showed a hint of confusion. "What's wrong?"
"Yusa's tone," Yui said, sounding exasperated at their denseness. "Didn't you notice something off about Yusa's tone?"
"Something off?" Toya's eyes turned slightly cold. "What's off? Is she planning to harm me?"
Aside from this possibility, he really couldn't think of anything else.
Sensing the chilling aura rising from Toya, Yui dared not play mysterious any longer and hurriedly explained, "No, no! It's just my own analysis."
"Kawashima, don't interpret it on your own!"
"Yusa is a good yokai!!!"
Toya glared at Yui and said seriously, "Don't do that again. You can't joke about things like this."
"One misstep, and I might really end up in a life-or-death battle with Yusa."
If Yui's words had aligned with his own judgment...
It was very possible that a misunderstanding could have sparked a fight.
Yukino nodded in agreement, scolding, "Yuigahama-san, please refrain from being cryptic."
"When it comes to supernatural entities, it's easy to cause irreversible and serious consequences."
"I was wrong, I was wrong! I promise it won't happen again." Yui clasped her hands together, bowing her head pitifully in apology. "Please forgive me."
Toya nodded slightly. "Forgiven."
Yukino nodded coolly and gave a soft hum of acknowledgment.
Yui's gossip-loving heart reignited, and she said excitedly, "Then let me tell you my guess from just now."
Toya felt a sliver of interest, wanting to hear what kind of guess Yui could come up with.
"I suspect the little Yuki-Onna's sister might have someone she likes!"
The moment these words came out, Yukino immediately questioned, "There was nothing wrong with what Yusa just said. How did you conclude she has someone she likes?"
Toya nodded in agreement.
For an ordinary person to make the famous Yuki-Onna fall in love wasn't easy.
First, they had to be handsome enough.
Second, their temperament couldn't be poor; otherwise, they would never catch a Yuki-Onna's eye.
In the plot of Dropkick on My Devil!!, Yusa didn't have a romantic partner.
The lack of male characters in the anime was one issue, but the main reason was the lack of sufficiently outstanding men.
Yui revealed a mysterious smile. "You guys don't get it."
"Kawashima said that the Human World is now dominated by humans."
"Generally, yokai don't come to the Human World, let alone a yokai like a Yuki-Onna who is sought after by everyone."
Toya looked at Yui with a bit more respect. He hadn't expected this bun-head to be so observant, firmly remembering the information he had given.
Yui lifted her snow-white neck, looking at Toya proudly. "Kawashima, I'm smart, right?"
"I remembered everything you said."
"Very impressive," Toya said with a gentle smile.
Prompted by Yui, Yukino roughly guessed the reason and said coolly:
"Although a Yuki-Onna can disguise her appearance, the Human World is a place they usually avoid. Why would she come personally just to express gratitude?"
"Under normal circumstances, sending a gift would suffice."
"Yet Yusa insists on coming in person. Clearly, it's not just for simple thanks."
"Yusa, who has just reached adulthood, definitely doesn't have a partner. And a Yuki-Onna's object of affection is almost certainly not a yokai."
Listening to Yukino and Yui exchanging deductions, Toya was stunned.
"Is this the deductive ability of girls?"
"When it comes to romance, even that detective with the glasses probably couldn't deduce things this easily."
He looked at Yukino and Yui seriously, re-evaluating them.
"Two girls who have never been in a relationship deducing this so accurately... it's truly surprising."
Yui's face flushed red, and she raised her voice to cover her lack of romantic experience. "Just because I haven't been in a relationship doesn't mean I can't deduce it!"
"Doesn't this kind of deduction just require a brain?"
Yukino's expression remained unchanged, maintaining her aloof "flower on a high peak" status.
She wasn't particularly interested in romance; aside from wasting time and energy, it held no meaning for her.
Instead of dating, she would rather spend more time studying or reading books she liked.
