Chapter 104 If you are a man, you must be a scumbag! ...

Chapter 104

After Choice, Kurokawa Kaoru stopped paying attention to the affairs of the Vongola and the Millefiore family. After learning from Cerbero that it would take about two weeks before he could return to the world of ten years ago, he grabbed Kuroba Kaito and began running around the world, a perfect opportunity to relax.

By the way, there is also Miya Yu who comes to treat them to dinner every now and then, and... Byakuran Jesso who keeps saying things like friends and bonds, but insists on sticking around no matter how Kurokawa Kaoru refuses.

Kurokawa Kaoru: ...

I always feel that after coming to this world, I have been speechless more often.

"Honestly, you really don't want to consider dating me?"

Once again, he took the initiative to be the unlucky recipient of this treat. Looking at the boy eating omurice, Miya You's lips curled up and he said with a smile, "Although I don't have any experience, I think if the other person is Kurokawa, I should be a good partner."

"I've already said it... I really don't have such thoughts about you in this world."

Perhaps it was because of so many confessions from this world's Miya Yu that Kurokawa Kaoru had become a master at rejecting them. But for some reason, when he said this, what he meant to say was that he had no feelings for the other person, but the words slipped to him: he had no feelings for this world's Miya Yuu.

Seeing the regret on her face, Kurokawa Kaoru's expression shifted slightly, and she said unhappily, "And didn't I tell you? In a few days, I'll be back to my own world. I don't want to be a scumbag in my first relationship, even though we've only been together for a few days."

"If you're a man, you have to be a scumbag!"

"...If anyone else hears this, you'll be put in a sack, you idiot."

"All right."

Gong You had only said this jokingly, having considered that if Kurokawa Kaoru really agreed, it wouldn't matter if his first relationship only lasted a few days. Hearing the reluctance in his partner's words, Gong You's lips curled up and he leaned back in his chair. "After this trip, will you come back again?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it shouldn't happen."

Cerbero tells Kurokawa Kaoru that since his wish has been fulfilled, when he returns to the past, Kurokawa Kaoru of this world will come back to life. He has no interest in a world that does not belong to him. Although many things have happened here, he still wants to return to his own world more than the world ten years later.

Thinking of this, Kurokawa Kaoru laughed: "After all, I am only a freshman in high school. Studying is my main job. If I really want to come back here, I may have to wait until I get into university."

“…I hate studying.”

"Although I hate you, we have the same idea on this matter."

"You think so, don't you?"

Gong You's eyes widened as his opinion was acknowledged. He turned to look at Bai Lan Jie Suo beside him. "Ever since junior high, I've felt that studying isn't for me. People around me also said that if I hadn't fallen in love with volleyball, I might have spent my whole life living a life of idleness and waiting to die in the Gong family."

"I just simply don't like studying."

"Aren't they all the same?"

"idiot."

Kurokawa Kaoru was somewhat helpless: "What I mean by simply not liking to study is... even though he hates it, his grades are still pretty good."

"Huh?"

Hearing Kurokawa Kaoru's voice, Gong You was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief: "Is that so?"

"That's right."

"As expected of Xiaoxun, you really understand me in this aspect."

“…”

He competed with these guys who were good at studying!

"When you think about it, it's really amazing what's happened during this period."

Finally finishing his own omelet rice, Kuroba Kaito narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but sigh, "I used to think my life was all about finding the cause of my father's death, and beyond that, finding Pandora. I never imagined there were so many things in this world that couldn't be explained by science."

Kurokawa Kaoru smiled and said, "For ordinary people like us, it's better not to understand these things."

"you're right."

Kuroba Kaito nodded.

He and Kurokawa Kaoru didn't care much about these things. If it were the type of person who easily lost control, when they saw a world beyond their own cognition, no one knew what they would do under such a huge gap.

Thinking of this, Kuroba Kaito shook his head and said calmly, "But this magic show with you has given me some new inspiration. Next time I have the chance, I'll perform this in front of everyone."

"Are you planning on scaring the police officers to death?"

"Since he's a Phantom Thief, it's normal for him to be able to perform miracles under the watchful eyes of the world, right?"

Kurokawa Kaoru didn’t know whether it was normal or not, he only knew that someone was going to have a headache next.

But these are not things he needs to worry about. Looking at the ceiling above his head, his eyebrows curved and his eyes were filled with smiles.

"Next time if you need anything from me, I'll charge you."

"ha?"

"After all, I had no intention of inheriting the Kurokawa family before. Everything I did was based on my personal wishes. But when I return, I will be able to confirm my identity as the heir of the Kurokawa family."

"...Why don't you just tell me you want to blackmail me?"

"Since you've said that, I'll just admit it."

Kuroba Kaito: Haha.

Anyone who believes such words is a fool.

A few days later, Reborn returned.

When he heard about this, Kurokawa Kaoru was making steak for XANXUS at Varian - after all, he had promised the other party to make six steaks for him. Although Kurokawa Kaoru felt that this was an unfair clause, he had agreed to it after all, so he could only accept his fate.

Hearing what XANXUS said, Kurokawa Kaoru was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and nodded: "Since Lord Reborn has returned, it seems that we will also return to the world ten years ago."

"From your tone, it seems you're quite regretful?"

"Not really, it's just a pity that I didn't take any ugly photos of him before he came back. I was thinking of using these ugly photos to blackmail Lord Reborn and ask him to send me money."

XANXUS was silent for a moment, then reached out and ruffled the man's hair into a ball of straw. "What kind of nonsense is running through your mind all day long?"

"Isn't it interesting? That's an ugly photo of Lord Reborn. This way, if Varian needs help from him in the future, he only needs to show this photo and Lord Reborn will agree."

“…”

You know what, I was actually quite moved.

Then, it was the day before we were supposed to go back.

On the last day, neither Xanxus nor Miya Yuu, nor even Byakuran Jesso, who could have met him in the world ten years ago, bothered Kurokawa Kaoru again. Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others were telling Irie Shoichi to talk to Sawada Tsunayoshi of this world when he returned. After all, it was a Vongola matter, so Kurokawa Kaoru naturally wouldn't get involved.

With nothing to do, he took Kuroba Kaito and took the initiative to find Kudo Shinichi.

Kudo Shinichi, who had just solved a murder case, was caught by Kurokawa Kaoru:?

Regarding the fact that he had disturbed Kudo Shinichi's rest time, Kurokawa Kaoru was very calm and said that he had disturbed him in the same way ten years ago. In response, Kudo Shinichi had no choice but to accept his fate and bear the consequences for his other self.

but--

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Is it not possible?"

"It's not impossible..."

Standing aside, listening to Kurokawa Kaoru and Kuroba Kaito enthusiastically discussing what to do next, seeing the confusion on their faces, Kudo Shinichi took a deep breath and said with a troubled look on his face, "After all, they did help you with something. Isn't it a bit too much to 'repay' them like this?"

Too much?

Kurokawa Kaoru's eyebrows rose: "I thought about it for a long time before thinking of how to repay him. How can it be too much?"

At this point, Kurokawa Kaoru's expression paused, and his gaze fell on Kudo Shinichi: "Or do you also like the gift I gave to the other person?"

“…”

"After all, it's a gift you prepared for him. It's a bit rude to just take it for yourself."

"hehe."

Kurokawa Kaoru rolled his eyes and turned to look at Kuroba Kaito: "What do you think about what I just said?"

"I think it's good."

When it came to tricking one's own people, Kuroba Kaito was always the first to respond. After discussing it, they had already finalized a preliminary plan. Thinking of the expression that person would have after receiving this gift, Kuroba Kaito and Kurokawa Kaoru looked at each other, each seeing a schadenfreude in the other's eyes.

"Then it's settled!"

The day after the gift was "given", Kurokawa Kaoru and the others returned to the world of ten years ago. At the same time, this world began to correct itself, and Kurokawa Kaoru, Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others who had been dead for ten years, once again returned to the public's attention.

For this world's "Kurokawa Kaoru," he was confused about whether he could survive. Like waking from a long, beautiful dream, he opened his eyes to see the azure sky, his expression dazed, and he sat up, supporting himself on the coffin beneath him.

Unlike when Kurokawa Kaoru first arrived, the corpses around him were gone, replaced by fresh flowers brought from the Millufiore family. Sunlight shone through the shade of the trees, the chirping of insects filled his ears, and the fragrance of flowers lingered in his nose. Everything seemed exceptionally beautiful.

"That guy...actually did it."

As the chosen "Kurokawa Kaoru", the man has killed himself countless times. In order to achieve his goal, he has also done many bad things, so he really didn't expect that he could come back.

"Thank you very much."

Chuckling and thanking himself in another world, the man shook his head and staggered to his feet.

Then--

He then saw the luxurious Lolita dress he was wearing.

“…”

"Kurokawa Kaoru!"

The only response to the man was the continued chirping of insects.

TBC.
