CHAPTER 307: EVIL EYE AND WHITE HOLE QUEEN

Chapter 307: Evil Eye and White Hole Queen! Gate of Boundary!

Apartment 301. Sayuri’s home.

Ding-dong!

Not long after the doorbell rang, the door opened, revealing Chinu.

Seeing Ren, Chinu narrowed her charming eyes and smiled. "Oh my, is Ren-kun here to see Sayuri? She’s still making dinner, but Eriri is in her room and has plenty of time."

...

Ren’s eyelid twitched. What kind of person does she take me for? A stud?

It seems... not entirely wrong.

He rubbed his forehead and stepped aside to reveal the others. "This is Ms. Izumi, who lives in room 201, and her daughter. They’ve come to visit the neighbors."

"I’m just helping them get acquainted."

Ms. Izumi opportunely took out a fruit box and offered it. "Hello, I’m Izumi Sayo, and this is my daughter, Izumi Sagiri. Please take care of us from now on."

"Oh~" Chinu accepted the fruit and gave Ren a meaningful smile. "Hello, Ms. Izumi. I’m Chinu. As for the others, you can come in and wait. Sayuri is in the kitchen and can’t leave."

"Oh, then I’m truly bothering you."

After changing their shoes, they entered the room.

"It smells so good." As soon as Ms. Izumi entered, she smelled a fragrant aroma and her gaze subconsciously turned towards the kitchen.

!!!

Izumi Sagiri, however, looked at the living room sofa. She widened her eyes; a fair-skinned girl, very similar to the dark-skinned Chinu, was flying in the air!

She quickly rubbed her eyes, but when she looked again, the girl was sitting on the sofa, even smiling and nodding at her.

Did I see wrong? Izumi Sagiri wondered.

In reality, Seimei was giving a strained smile, signaling weakness to Ren. The moment Sagiri saw her, Ren had directly forced her onto the sofa.

[Don’t you understand you need to behave when guests are over? Come to my place tonight. I need to teach you a lesson,] he said in her mind.

Hearing this, Seimei widened her eyes. He’s going to lay hands on me! For a moment, she became extremely conflicted.

"Ren!"

Before anyone could react, Eriri rushed out of her room, pounced on Ren, and gave his lips a thorough kissing.

Ren pushed her away, twitching the corner of his mouth. "There are people here."

"Huh?" Only then did Eriri notice Ms. Izumi and Sagiri staring at her.

...

Izumi Sagiri had already covered her eyes in embarrassment, while Ms. Izumi curiously observed the two. They looked like a young couple.

"Uh, I’m going back to my room first!" Eriri awkwardly shrank back, jumped off Ren, and fled to her room as if escaping.

She was used to behaving this way in front of her own people, but in front of outsiders, she would still be very shy.

"Ahem, don’t mind her. That’s Sawamura Eriri."

"Sayuri, come out for a moment..."

After everyone got acquainted, Ms. Izumi tactfully left. They then visited several other households, including Kie’s.

What surprised Ms. Izumi was that everyone seemed very familiar with Ren, and surprisingly, they were all female. This apartment building truly had an imbalance of yin and yang.

After leaving her own home, Ren also took some fruit. He hadn’t visited the two families upstairs yet.

"Oh, since Ren-kun just helped me, I’ll go with you too," the now familiar Ms. Izumi volunteered, changing her address for him.

Izumi Sagiri pouted, but in her heart, she was still thinking about the flying Seimei. She felt that she hadn’t been seeing things.

Room 501.

Ren wondered if this family, whom he hadn’t met yet, was home today. After he rang the doorbell, he heard the patter of slippers. But the person stopped at the door and asked through it with a clear voice.

"Messenger who has come to the Gate of Boundary, recite the incantation to open it!"

It was a girl’s voice, but what she said was very strange.

Ms. Izumi helplessly rubbed her forehead. "It seems Tohka isn’t home." Then she whispered to Ren, "This child, Rikka, is a bit of a chuunibyou. Please don’t mind her."

"Rikka always says strange things," Sagiri also mumbled softly. They seemed to be very familiar.

...

Ren’s heart stirred. Tohka, Rikka, and chuunibyou...

He guessed it might be Takanashi Rikka inside.

Ms. Izumi cleared her throat, slightly embarrassed, and said to the door, "Gate of Boundary, heed the summons of the White Hole Queen, open the door..."

Click!

The door opened. A petite, fair-skinned girl appeared. What was unusual was her attire. Her right eye wore a golden contact lens covered by an eye patch, and her left hand was bandaged. The chuunibyou vibe was at its peak.

A striking ahoge on her head twitched. "White Hole Queen, the Holy Regulator isn’t here. Are you looking for me?"

Ms. Izumi’s breath hitched. She hurriedly said, "Rikka, this is Ren-kun. He lives in room 401 and has come to visit."

"Hello, I’m Ren. Please take care of me," he said, offering the fruit.

"I... I am the Evil... Ah! I am Takanashi Rikka, nice to meet you." She seemed so used to her persona that she almost mispronounced her own name. After accepting the fruit, she became exceptionally reserved.

Ren noticed this and left without much further conversation.

"Sigh, Rikka is just like that. Please don’t mind her too much, Ren-kun," Ms. Izumi said, trying to redeem Rikka’s image. She had a lot of affection for the girl. She had heard from Toka that Rikka’s father had passed away, and she had developed chuunibyou as a way to cope, believing he was in the "invisible boundary line."

This was very similar to Sagiri. Her husband had also passed away, and Sagiri was now very timid.

Thinking of her daughter, Ms. Izumi’s expression became a bit dim. "Cough cough!" Perhaps due to the suppression in her chest, she coughed violently.

"Mom, are you okay?" Sagiri asked with concern.

Ms. Izumi forced a smile. "I’m fine, just a bit breathless."

"Please don’t worry about the chuunibyou. I don’t mind it," Ren said. "However, Ms. Izumi, you should pay attention to resting. You don’t look very well."

"Hmm, I’ve been staying up a bit late recently," she said, changing the subject. "Ren-kun, the residents of 701 might surprise you."

"Hmm, that’s true," Ren replied. He already knew that the Nakano Quintuplets lived there.
