Approaching boobs

The next day, Monday, July 30, after school.

Kiriha and I, together with Director Sayuri, were on the cargo ship where Miina was working.

It was an elegant time, the four of us sitting together on the sofa we had brought with us, watching the news on MR TV with a cup of tea in our hands.

On MR TV, Director Sayuri was explaining the countermeasures against OU countries.

“Hmm, looking at it objectively like this……I’m still beautiful!”

“A self-praise…”

“Huu, you can praise me more. Rather, praise me. I’m the type of person who thrives on praise.”

“I have a feeling that way….”

I let out a fed-up sigh as Director Sayuri made a smug face.

“That reminds me, about that OU measure, have the diamond parts that Miina has been making since yesterday been selling?”

Currently, OU was threatening to suspend OU-Japan trade as an economic sanction if Japan did not stop its gold bullion trade and methane hydrate mining.

This was a fatal blow to Japan, which exports large quantities of electronic equipment to the OU.

As a countermeasure, Miina produced diamond parts from carbon and electronics manufacturers mass-produced diamond semiconductors, which were then sold domestically.

By selling them domestically, the electronics manufacturers were able to prevent the decline of the electronics industry.

“We were ready. All manufacturers have reached the stage where they can make diamond semiconductors as long as they have diamond parts. Diamond parts are selling like hotcakes.”

Miina was heartened by this good news.

“I’m glad. I’d be disappointed if it didn’t sell out after all that work.”

“That’s right.”

“Also, the OU is lobbying the UN to create an Extraordinary Ability Management Bureau, and today, the Prime Minister will issue a statement that the Japanese government will protect you and your abilities. Even if the UN creates an Extraordinary Ability Management Bureau, this is a strong statement that Japan’s psychics will not be turned over to the UN.”

“I hope this is enough for the OU to give up our abductions.”

If the world were so lenient, there would be no hardship.

Now that was my faintest wish.

The news moved from OU pressure to entertainment.

Maria continued to post scandalous videos of the entertainment and sports industry on the Internet as usual, and many of the people involved have been caught by the police.

While I was sorry for the many fans, there were some good things that happened.

“Ah, I miss this comedian. He hasn’t been appearing for a while.”

“Wow, a show about a new idol trying to gain popularity sounds interesting.”

“Ah, Honey, you liked this director’s movie, didn’t you? There’s a sequel coming out.”

Certainly, Maria’s Thoughtography power had caused countless producers, directors, and entertainers to lose their jobs.

On the other hand, the disappearance of political pressure in the industry brought back entertainers and directors who had been unreasonably sidelined and created a trend to discover young talent and mid-career talent who had never seen the light of day.

It had always been said that the entertainment industry today was clogged up at the top, making it difficult for young talent to flourish.

But this time, it seemed that the industry was being reorganized in a positive way.

“I guess we owe this to Maria.”

Miina nodded at my words.

“Yes, I agree. But I think people in the entertainment industry have too many affairs. It’s a little unforgivable.”

“Eh, ah, yes, that’s right. Adultery is no good.”

I, who was dating Maria as well as Kiriha, felt a pang of guilt.

“It’s disgusting for a person to hurt someone they love and then go out with someone else, don’t you think so too, Honey-kun?”

“Miina-san, are you doing this on purpose?”

“Eh? You are dating MARIA with KIRIHA’s permission, aren’t you? Then there’s nothing to worry about, is there?”

“A meaningful smiling face?!”

As I was suffering from the prickly attack, Director Sayuri was stunned.

“What!? You have only added Maria to your harem!? I thought you had already added Naimine Miina and Esashi Shisae!”

“What am I in your eyes, Director Sayuri!?”

“In my eyes, you’re Okui Honey Ikuo, no?”

“As I said, stop using that as my middle name….”

I was feeling down, but Director Sayuri tapped me on the shoulder in a good mood.

“Well, well, isn’t it good? It doesn’t matter how many people you date as long as you are not registered under Japanese law. That’s a hole in the law. It would be more convenient for me if you continue to complete the Big Four.”

“Just to confirm, Director Sayuri, you are a high-ranking bureaucrat at the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, aren’t you? You are a government official, aren’t you? Why are you trying to drag the youth into your evil ways?”

“Eh? Is it wrong for Honey to go out with Maria? You shouldn’t say that, wouldn’t Maria be sad if she heard that now?”

“No, that’s not what I meant!”

“Honey-kun, let’s just give up now.”

Miina tapped me on the shoulder and I was distressed.

—Ah, this is strange. I’m the one who’s two-timing, right? I should be the one to be blamed by Kiriha, right? What’s going on with the ethics of these women?

As I looked into the distance with a gestalt collapse of my outlook on life, Director Sayuri snapped her fingers.

“Right. We have decided on the disposition of Shusuke Ijuin.”

“As I recall, he was caught for abetting murder, wasn’t he?”

“The punishment will be lightened because it was an attempt, he is a minor, and he did not order the murder, but only incited it on the Internet. He will be sent to a rehabilitation facility for one month with a suspended sentence. This is also a measure against OU.”

Director Sayuri tightened her voice.

“There is still a strong possibility that the OU nation is after any of you. However, Shusuke Ijuin can foresee a crisis within 24 hours. It is not in your best interest to keep him in custody indefinitely. Of course, we will have him predict your situation three times a day at the welfare facility, but we need him to be as cooperative as possible.”

—In other words, we don’t want him to give false precognitions.

“One month, you mean during the summer vacation period?”

“Yes, that’s right. He will attend the closing ceremony tomorrow, but he will spend the entire summer vacation in a rehabilitation facility. Incidentally, the principal’s long speech, which is a tradition at the end-of-school ceremony, is scheduled for 15 minutes. At first, I thought about abolishing it, but I decided to keep it so that students can get excited about school life after they go out into the world.”

No need, I thought, and I asked something else.

“That Ijuin guy, will he be able to make it to the end of the school day? I teleported him into the sewers and he’s going to be in the hospital for a while with an infection, isn’t he?”

“He seems to have borrowed the power of a curative psychic with the help of his parents’ connections and money. However, as soon as he is discharged from the hospital, he will be sent to a rehabilitation facility as soon as he starts his summer vacation. After the summer vacation is over, there will be restrictions on his activities with supervision for three months.”

—Supervision, come to think of it, Kiriha, is my supervision, in a manner of speaking, right?

“Is this supervision like Kiriha?”

“No, Shusuke Ijuin will be closely monitored 24 hours a day by Onigawara Gonzo, a mercenary who is skinhead, sunglasses-wearing, macho, and enjoys knife sharpening and muscle training, and his non-pleasant companions in turn.”

—Farewell Ijuin.

I offered a silent prayer for Ijuin, who lost the summer of his freshman year of high school, which came only once in a lifetime.

“Because, Honey, I also want to watch you closely 24 hours a day.”

I choked with excitement as Kiriha, with her sweet voice, began to snuggle up to me.

“T-the bath and the bed are separate!”

“Hm~, but Honey might be doing something naughty in the bath.”

“That’s why Maiko is Psychometrizing me every day! I have nothing to be guilty of!”’

“Then why do you turn away?”

Using the shoulder she had been pressing against me as a base, Kiriha flipped around. She straddled my knees, or rather, my lower stomach, and faced me.

—Uuuh, uuaaaaa!?

Even through her uniform, Kiriha’s assertive and bountiful breasts loomed between my eyes and were a great force to be reckoned with.

It was truly the violence of secondary sexual characteristics!

I turned my face away to suppress my evil thoughts.

A moment later, my face was held in both of her smooth hands, forcing me to turn my head upward.

“If you have nothing to hide, then why can’t you see my face?”

“No, it would make me feel guilty, but I’m sure you know that, don’t you? And Miina, you’re definitely recording right now, aren’t you?”

“No, not Naimine Miina, but me!”

“Please restrain yourself!”

“What do you mean, you don’t get a chance to preserve such a real page from your youth, you know?”

“I can’t stand this kind of realism! I mean, aaaaaaah! Don’t even come close to me, Director Sayuriiiiiiii!”

When I exclaimed at the approaching pressure of Kiriha’s super-heaviness, Kiriha withdrew her bewitching mood and her tone became flat.

“Speaking of youth, does Inou Gakuen have a set schedule of events?”

“Mhm. We are thinking about school festivals and other ironclad events. But personally, I am trying to gather opinions from students. If you have any opinions about school events, please gather them together.”

When she said that much, she relaxed her businesslike tone.

“In fact, when I founded Inou Gakuen, I decided to protect only the school life of those with abilities.”

“Director Sayuri’s words were listened to by me, who was stuck between the two big boobs, and also by Kiriha and Miina.”

“We, adults, are responsible for Japan’s economic collapse. It is a bad habit of the Japanese people to pass on the bill of the adults to you, children, and I am sorry for that.”

I had heard a similar story before.

Many elementary schools teach students about social and environmental issues, and then use the catchphrase, “You are the future of Japan.”

But all that did was force the children to clean up after the adults’ mistakes.

If they were adults, they should leave the children with a clean society that had been properly cleaned up afterward.

Director Sayuri spoke to us with a look of compassion and responsibility that was different from that of other adults.

“I am truly sorry for making you spend your precious youth [after school] and [holidays] working to save Japan. In return, I would like to offer you the best school life. That is the least I can do.”

I was struck by how sincere she was.

As always, Director Sayuri was the best boss.

If I had had such an adult around me, my life would not have been so miserable.

“Then I’m going back to work. Naimine Miina, I’ll leave the rest of the recording to you.”

“Leave it to me.”

“Don’t ‘leave it to me’!”
