The Assassin throws a towel over her shoulder and opens the living room door. She throws me a thank-you note. They say that a man is charming when water drips from his hair, but the Assassin is a female version of it.

“Thank you for the bath. I was surprised at how big it is. I only used the shower, though.”

I regret buying such a big house for nothing before, but it was a good deal considering the Assassin likes it.

“Okay. I’ll do it later.”

I reply lightly. The Assassin’s hair, a little shiny with water, comes out of the changing room. I hand her the jersey I always wear. It is, as expected, pre-washed.

It is not that the Assassin is small in stature, but I am taller than her, so the jersey is a little loose, and the appeal of the jersey is accelerated.

It’s not my shirt, but my jersey. I am tempted to take a picture of her, but I won’t do so.

The Assassin is hanging around the room, looking somewhat uneasy. She looks restless.

“Hey, why don’t you sit on the couch? Oh, you’re uncomfortable without handcuffs? Assassins are such M, I see.”

When I said that, the Assassin looked at me contemptuously and sighed a little before standing up and speaking.

“I think Sagami is an idiot for not handcuffing people who have tried to kill him, even once, and letting them loose in his house.”

“I don’t care. Assassins don’t want to kill me, do you? ”

“I don’t know. But maybe not now.”

She replies vaguely. The Assassin is struggling to answer, and even if she hates me with all her heart right now, I hope she will like me in the end.

While I was thinking such a cool thing, she suggested something to me, fiddling with her fingertips and looking a little in the opposite direction.

“Why don’t we go to the convenience store? ”

The Assassin said a little awkwardly. Going to a convenience store this late at night, she must have only one purpose.

“You… Do you want to run away that badly? You don’t like me that much….? ”

“I don’t hate you. It’s rather… A-anyway, why don’t we go?”

“I don’t want to buy anything, and I don’t want you to run away. If you want to buy something, I’ll buy it. What do you want to buy? ”

The Assassin looks away awkwardly. Her mouth is agape as if she’s not sure whether or not to say.

“No, let me go buy something. I won’t run away! ”

“Would you stand in front of a drooling lion just because he usually doesn’t eat people? It’s the same thing.”

If you want, you can handcuff yourself to me… ”

With that, the assassin hands over the handcuffs. Handcuffed me to an assassin? And with an assassin who smells nice after a bath?

“But why don’t I go buy them? Why not?”

“it’s…down here… ”

The Assassin holds her trousers down. Then she turns red and crouches down. I see. Of course, there is nothing else the Assassin wants to buy since my house got everything.

“So the Assassin has no underwear on now… What a naughty assassin! It’s so hot it makes me cry.”

“一Let’s go together. To the convenience store at night…”

I grab my handcuffs, but I’m pretty sure I’d be arrested if I walked around the city at night wearing handcuffs. Professionally, it’s a no-no for us, so I reject it. I decided something in my mind, and I grabbed the Assassin’s hand with vigor.

“Hyah!”

She surprised me with such a pitiful voice, but she lightly squeezed my hand back after that. I smile at the Assassin, who looks down, and the Assassin says in a haughty voice.

” …Don’t look at me.”

What a cute voice. I am off to a romantic town with such a cute assassin in the streets lit up with lights.
