I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

"Yo! Shishio!"

Jou Mikimoto greeted Shishio with a smile when he saw him entering his restaurant.

"Uncle."

During the summer, Shishio often came to Jou's restaurant to pick up Rui or to taste their food, so they could make it better.

Jou knew Shishio's palate, and his advice was good, and he could even see how his customers kept praising his foods since they tasted better.

Everyone in Jou's restaurant knew him, and no one stopped him when he entered. They even greeted him with a smile since they knew this restaurant could be better because of him. If they made their own restaurant in the future, they knew that if they could get his help, their restaurant would become famous, so they tried to please him.

"Where is Rui?"

Shishio was straight to the point since he needed to handle the matter needed Rui's presence.

"She is getting ready. What's wrong? You seem so serious," Jou asked curiously.

"It's a pervert." He let out a long sigh, wondering why there were so many perverts in this city.

Before Hina received a call from her mother, telling her that Natsuo was at the police station.

Natsuo was at the police station because he caught a panties thief around the neighborhood.

Natsuo called his father, but his father was quite busy, and it was impossible for him to come for him, so in the end, his father told him about this matter to Tsukiko Tachibana, and she told her two daughters about this matter, telling them to help to get Natsuo out since she was also in the middle of her job.

Hina didn't want to come since her relationship was quite awkward with Natsuo. She had rejected him, after all, and their relationship was hardly close. She also moved to Shishio's apartment and barely communicated with Natsuo. Still, it was impossible for her to ignore Natsuo. Fortunately, Shishio was there, and he also didn't mind helping Natsuo since even if it felt weird, Natsuo might become his brother-in-law.

As for why Shishio also invited Rui, it was because Rui was also a victim of this panties thief.

"What? Who dares?! I will come with you!" Jou's eyes reddened as he took the kitchen knife, ready to rampage on the police station. How could a father stay calm when he heard that his daughter's panties were stolen by someone?!

If Jou didn't cut one or two fingers off this thief, he wouldn't be called a man!

After Jou received a recipe from Shishio, his stamina increased, and his skin was healthy. He also had dominated his wife, and watching his wife begging for mercy every time made his pride rise.

"Calm down, dad!" Rui just happened to go out and quickly stopped her father. There was no way she could let her father follow them to the police station since she knew that this guy might rampage. She wasn't sure how, but after Jou's meeting with Shishio, she felt her father had become more aggressive and confident, which made her sigh since she could see many young women were attracted to him.

While Rui didn't care much about her father's romance, he had a new wife, so she hoped he would stay loyal even though her boyfriend wasn't loyal to her alone. Still, this and that was a different matter.

This matter aside, being aggressive didn't mean a bad thing. Also, instead of saying aggressive, it was better to say Jou dared to take the initiative. His age might keep him calm and cool-headed in many situations, especially with his experience of failing his first restaurant. However, when he saw a chance, he didn't hesitate to take the initiative.

This is what it meant to become aggressive.

In other words, Jou had become a man of initiative.

"Shishio, do something to that pervert in my place!" Jou was helpless by Rui, so he could only rely on his son-in-law.

"Don't worry, Uncle. Leave the rest to me."

How could he let this pervert go?

The moment this bastard had stolen Rui's panties, this guy's fate was already sealed. Whether it was going to become a potato farm, a miner, or a fish pellet, he was going to torture this guy slowly, giving him the best despair from one place to another.

Rui could only smile helplessly at the two men before she hugged Shishio. "Then, bye, dad. I will see you after the summer vacation."

"Un." Jou nodded. "Have fun on your summer vacation. You don't need to be in a hurry to continue your work." He waved his hand, watching the two leave until he suddenly remembered about his stepdaughter, Hibiki Mikimoto, who reminded him to call her whenever Shishio came. However, while he felt good about Shishio, how could he feel good when almost all of his daughters fell to the same man?

Or maybe because his daughters shared the same type of men?

He wasn't sure, but it was better to keep quiet about this matter.

"Shishio, don't forget!"

"Okay, uncle."

He waved his hand and said goodbye before he took Rui with him to his car since he had something to talk about with her.

The two were inside the car, but he didn't immediately drive them to the police office, where Natsuo was waiting. It was Natsuo, after all, so even if this guy stayed in the police office for a while, it didn't matter.

"Why didn't you tell me about this?"

He was helpless at Rui since she didn't tell him that her panties were stolen.

Rui was a bit embarrassed but said, "You have been busy for the past few days after all, especially when your parents came and told you that you would be engaged with someone. I don't want to bother you with something small."

"It doesn't matter whether this issue is small or big, but no matter how busy I am, I won't think of you as a bother, okay?" He rubbed her hair gently and said, "So promise me next time, tell me if you have something that you keep on your heart or trouble you have encountered since it saddened me when you don't trust me."

"I know."

Rui stared at him for a moment, feeling her eyes moist from the tears before hugging him tightly. "Sorry." She thought she should handle this problem alone, but she was wrong since she knew she should discuss it with him as soon as it happened.

"It's okay. It's good that it is only your panties. What if you're hurt next time?"

The matter of panties could be big or small, depending on how one sees it.

However, what mattered the most was how this situation would develop.

If this pervert only stole panties, it didn't really matter since it was just a piece of clothing. Even though it was annoying and made people furious and disgusted, it was still better than how a sexual deviant would usually act, especially toward an attractive girl.

To be honest, he didn't expect to meet so many perverts in this city. If he included Shiro-san, he had met three perverts and two while he was in the summer. It might be only two people, but it was scary, okay?

If possible, he didn't want any of his women to meet a pervert, but he knew that the world couldn't work that way.

Still, for those perverts, who harassed his women, it was impossible for him to give them a merciful punishment, and only hell was waiting for them.

"It's just that it is only my kid-like panties that are stolen, and I thought it was Fujii who stole it."

While Rui had many adult panties, the only panties that were stolen were kid-like panties.

This fact made him speechless, making him wonder whether this pervert had a special hobby.

On the other hand, he knew Natsuo was being wronged, but it couldn't be helped since their relationship was far from good. It was normal for Rui to have such prejudice toward Natsuo since Natsuo was the only male except Akihito Fujii in the house.

"Anyway, let's pick him up."

"Okay."

Even if their relationship was terrible, they were still a family. However, it was impossible for her to pick him up alone, so when Shishio told her that he was going to go with her, she agreed without hesitation.

"When we go back, how about we stop at the nearby hotel first?"

"...."

Shishio thought that this might be Rui's way to give him thanks for helping her.

Natsuo Fujii was sitting in silence, wondering how everything could become like this. His mood was far from good since he had encountered one misfortune after another, especially after he was rejected by Hina and how Rui often looked at him with disgust.

'What did I do?'

Natsuo felt the unfairness of this world.

Yet Natsuo didn't expect to have a good relationship with Rui since he also hated her. The only thing he regretted was Hina since if he didn't confess and didn't express his feelings, their relationship wouldn't be so awkward.

However, there was no medicine for regret.

It was impossible for him to change everything, so he had been holed up in his room to write a story.

Today, he also wanted to do the same, but he had gone to the school to do some business before going back and continuing to write. Unfortunately, he met a disaster.

"Nat-chan! Nat-chan! Who is going to pick us up?"

He looked at the transfer student from America, who sat next to him.

"Probably my father or my... mother, Alex."

It was still hard for him to call Tsukiko Tachibana his mother, but he didn't want to talk about his father's remarriage, so he called Tsukiko a "mother."

"Okay! Okay!"

Alex J. Matsukawa.

This was the name of this boy, who was also Natsuo's new friend. He came from America and just transferred to Suimei. As expected, he had blonde hair and blue eyes, showing he was a real one.

"By the way, are we going to be on the news?" Alex asked.

"It's just an underwear thief, so I don't know." Natsuo was helpless since he just wanted to go home. However, he was stunned when he heard this voice.

"Fujii."

Natsuo turned and was dumbfounded. "Huh? Rui?"

Alex also turned before he was in a daze since it was his first time seeing such a cute girl, yet he didn't realize how dark his future would be.
