After Failing to Resign, I Got a Happy Ending With My Overworking Boss

Synopsis: [First-time readers, please see the bottom of the synopsis and the author's notes in Chapter 1]

*

[Welcome to the "Live a Hundred Years" system! As long as you complete the tasks assigned by the system, you can get a chance to draw a lottery and extend your life~]

Miyama Asahi fell silent, facing the light orb that suddenly appeared before him.

[Of course, not everyone can bind such a considerate system when they only have two hours left to live! This system detected that your life expectancy reached 98... Host, why are you crying? Are you crying tears of joy for your luck?]

"..."

[Host?]

"Why couldn't you have come two weeks earlier? Even one day would have been fine!"

Miyama Asahi finally burst into tears, remembering returning from the hospital two weeks ago, when the doctor told him to do whatever he wanted to do back home.

Under the sudden shock, he recalled his cautious, hardworking, yet unremarkable life since transmigrating, which was now about to end. Miyama Asahi finally completely let himself go.

[For example?]

For example, running to have a big fight with his troublesome and fierce dark-faced boss, then slamming his resignation letter onto that blond bastard's face;

Then finding that glasses brat who always interfered with his work at the scene, and while Detective Kogoro's pretty daughter was also there, loudly telling him, "I've had enough of you, washing machine!";

Yesterday, he coincidentally met a silver-haired killer on the road, and thinking he was going to die anyway, ran over and told him—

"...That's how it is."

[...]

[...Well, we can work hard together, maybe, perhaps, possibly... Ugh...]

"You're crying! You're crying, aren't you!"

Just then, a knock sounded outside.

[Holy crap! Gin! It's Gin! What do we do! Gin is here!]

"Wuwu, I don't know either, help me—"

*

Zero had a subordinate named Asahi. Unlike his warm name, he was a cold, humorless, stubborn fellow.

He felt he should get along well with his subordinate and often tried to make him laugh, but for some reason, the subordinate not only couldn't laugh but also seemed a bit angry.

However, he still thought their relationship was quite good, at least he had never seen his poker-faced subordinate show any expression other than a blank stare to others.

Until one day, the subordinate kicked open his office door and furiously slammed his resignation letter on his desk.

Zero: ?

Zero: Wait, did I make you angry again? Don't joke about resigning!

◆Reading Guide◆

① Purely red (good side) protagonist, very cute. The CP is the dark-faced boss from the synopsis, both are slow to realize their mutual crush. Trust me, their romance is super sweet. No side CPs besides the official one, everyone else is a good friend!

② Main Conan, not extremely high but not low concentration of Reborn! crossover. No battle power comparisons, but related settings exist. All police academy squad members are alive with reasonable explanations and a detailed outline. Some settings will appear later due to plot, there will be no logical bugs, nor will characters be dumbed down. If it's not a typo, it's likely a foreshadowing, so please don't mock content guessed prematurely. (Typos are also being corrected! They will be corrected!)

③ Chapter 1's author's notes have more detailed guidance, regarding the protagonist's personality and some setting explanations. I feel it's explained very clearly there, so I won't say more here! In short, it is recommended to subscribe chapter by chapter. If you don't like it, stop loss in time. No need to inform about dropping the novel~

④ The cover has been changed many times during serialization, saved on L○f and Vb, feel free to check them out. Full subscription directly grants 30k words of bonus chapters (only the second bonus chapter requires 100%, I forgot to change it).

⑤ [The bonus chapters contain spoilers related to the main plot, so it is not recommended to read them first for the best reading experience.]

⑥ That's all! Thank you for your collections and comments, kiss kiss!

After a month-long flu, Shirayuki Tsubasa awakened a strange ability—as long as he had physical contact with someone, he could see their name.

—And it would be incredibly rude, prefixed with a secret deeply hidden in their heart.

The first time was at work, when the local councilman came to offer condolences. The man amiably shook his hand, and a line of text appeared before his eyes:

[Councilman Watanabe, who took kickbacks, bought votes, and accepted bribes totaling fifty billion]

Shirayuki Tsubasa: "...Call the police! Oh, I am the police... Where are the officers from Division 2?!"

The second time was a deliveryman. When he returned the stamped parcel, he accidentally touched the man, and another line of text appeared:

[Mr. Ogawa, who impulsively killed the annoying president and hid the body in the car trunk, planning to embark on a desperate journey tonight]

Shirayuki Tsubasa: "...Please wait a moment. Um, your work is hard, would you like a cup of tea before you leave?"

...

Shirayuki Tsubasa's recent case-solving rate was unusually high, and he received several bonuses, making him want to transfer directly from the Public Security Bureau to Division 1.

But it was just a thought. Shirayuki Tsubasa still went to the cafe as agreed, waiting for his direct superior, Public Security investigator Morofushi Hiromitsu, who was on an undercover mission.

—Wonder how Mr. Morofushi will appear this time?

As he was anticipating this, he bumped into a man. Before an apology could escape his lips, a line of text appeared before his eyes:

[Mr. Morofushi, who is very troubled because his junior Shirayuki seems to be having a belated rebellious phase]

Shirayuki Tsubasa: "You should be troubled by serious matters... No, who's having a rebellious phase!"

◆

Two years ago, Morofushi Hiromitsu's contact sacrificed himself to cover him. The contact's 18-year-old son took over the job.

The junior was young but very steady in his work, and they enjoyed working together.

It's just that Morofushi Hiromitsu has been a bit troubled recently. The junior used to be cheerful and enthusiastic, always happily calling him 'Mr. Hiro' during private meetings, incredibly cute. However, recently he seems to have changed, always frowning in front of him, unwilling to say an extra word, and even started using honorifics.

"I've told you I'm a police officer, don't always try to make me laugh during work, senior!"

"Is Tsubasa unhappy when he sees me?"

"That's two different things! I'm already a mature adult, you'd better be serious too... 'Mr. Morofushi, who wants to ○○○ and then ■■■■■■■■■ Tsubasa because his junior has become increasingly cute lately—since you can see it anyway, I'll just say it, in short, Tsubasa, I like you!???'"

"(Smile)"

[Short Scene]

"Mr. Hiro..."

"Mm, I'm here."

"Um... what does 'Mr. Morofushi, who wants to ○○○ and then ■■■■■■■■■ Tsubasa' mean?"

"(Smile)"

"Don't smile at a time like this! Talk to me!"

"Then... want to try?"
