Chapter 46: A Cross-Dressing Boy Almost Gets Undressed
“I’m his niece.”
Saying that, Ginjou-senpai smiled brightly, showing her white teeth.
I was so taken aback that I couldn’t help but gape at her, replaying her words in my mind.
“His niece… So, Ginjou-senpai, you’re… Kyoichiro Yanagisawa’s niece? Is that right?”
This morning, Ginjou Haruki told me her grandmother was Irish.
So, does that make her my paternal cousin?
I was utterly shocked because I’d assumed that Kyoichiro had fathered an illegitimate child during an affair.
“Is something wrong, Kisaragi-san? You’re staring blankly at my face… Are you that surprised to learn I’m his niece?”
“N-no, it’s nothing!!”
“Really? Hmm… You always seem so composed, but whenever Kyoichiro Yanagisawa comes up, you can’t seem to keep your cool. I wonder why that is?”
Man, this girl is scary. Her insight is way sharper than normal people’s.
It seems like I need to be extra careful not to let my ‘Kaede Kisaragi’ persona slip when I’m around her and always stay on guard.
As I mulled this over, Hanako, who was stroking the cat on her lap, spoke up to Ginjou-senpai.
“So… what’s your purpose in suddenly calling Francesca-san here, handsome lesbian? If it’s some nonsense about having a threesome with this beautiful girl over here, Francesca-san will leave immediately. Bahamut, Leviathan, and Jörmungandr are waiting for me at home, and they’re hungry.”
“Unfortunately, I only love one woman at a time. For now, I’m only interested in Kisaragi-san. So don’t worry, Hanako.”
“Good. Unlike you, I’m heterosexual, so I’m relieved I won’t be embraced by a woman.”
With that, Hanako let out a big sigh and glared at Ginjou-senpai before continuing.
“Let’s get back on track. What exactly did you come here for, lesbian?”
“Well, you see, Kisaragi-san’s friend has been the target of some nasty bullying since yesterday. Someone’s been stuffing rotten garbage into her shoe locker and scribbling on her desk… It’s gradually getting worse. So, to put a stop to this, we want to catch the culprit who’s behind the bullying, Hanako.”
“I’m not Hanako, I’m Francesca. I see. So that’s why you came to me. If I understand correctly… you want my cameras, is that correct?”
“Yes, exactly. I’d be grateful if you could lend us one of your surveillance cameras. Preferably a small one that won’t be easily noticed. We don’t want to cause a big commotion by getting caught with a surveillance camera at an all-girls school.”
At Ginjou-senpai’s request, I nodded in understanding, putting my hand to my chin before speaking up.
“A surveillance camera, huh? I see. A camera could indeed capture the act without us having to be there.”
After murmuring this, I turned to Hanako with a question.
“By the way… Why do you have surveillance cameras, Hanako-san? I’d imagine they’re quite expensive…”
“I’m not Hanako, I’m Francesca. Well… I am a person who loves Neko-sama very much. So, I have almost a complete set of cameras so that I can take better photos of Neko-sama.”
“Neko-sama…? Ah, you mean cats?”
“Yes. One of my treasures for capturing the image of Neko-sama is a surveillance camera. Stray Neko-sama don’t show their true selves when people approach, so I secretly set up cameras near their homes to observe them. Neko-sama is a god. You must make peace with Neko-sama, oh blue-eyed one.”
“I see… So, your love for cats led you to become skilled with cameras…”
A chuunibyou girl who’s a VTuber, loves cats and cameras… Come to think of it, she blurted out earlier that she’s a voice actress for an Erotic game or something.
How many different quirks does this girl have? Her character is way too strong…
As I was puzzling over this, Hanako stared directly into my eyes, raised a finger, and said expressionlessly,
“I have one condition if you want to borrow a surveillance camera. Is that okay, blue-eyed one?”
“W-What is it, Hanako-san?”
“I’m not Hanako, I’m Francesca. The condition is… I want a gravure photo of you.”
“…Huh?”
“I want to take gravure photos of you. If possible, I’d like you to be in a swimsuit, in a sexy pose. That way the photos will sell better.”
“…Why do you want me to do that…?”
“When I established the fan club, didn’t Francesca-san say it? That Kisaragi-san’s photos would be a great business. Fufufu… Just be a good little moneymaker for Francesca-san, Kaede Kisaragi. Now, put on a micro-bikini and spread your legs! Strike a lewd pose for Francesca-san!”
While making sound effects like those from a Jojo Stand, Hanako flashed a sinister smile.
As I cowered at her creepy grin, Ginjou-senpai stepped in front of me protectively, visibly annoyed.
“Sorry, but I can’t allow that, Hanako. She… Kisaragi-san, will be my girlfriend someday. There’s no way I’d let someone else see her bare skin.”
“Hmm… That situation might be irresistible for those who love NTR, but it seems that’s not your kink, lesbian.”
“NTR… What’s that?”
“Nothing. Anyway, cameras aren’t cheap. They require maintenance, which isn’t free. So, I won’t budge on this condition: Kisaragi-san’s sexy photos. I’m a poor student, so I need a lot of money.”
“I know you love money, but you’re especially stubborn today. Won’t you accept payment from my pocket money for renting the camera? Hanako?”
“No. Your pocket change doesn’t come close to what I’d make from Kisaragi-san’s sexy photos.”
“This is tough… I didn’t expect you to set such a condition.”
Ginjou-senpai rubbed her forehead tiredly, shrugging her shoulders.
Seeing this, Hanako smirked wickedly.
“Lesbian, you’re a womanizer and a pervert who loves women, with the soul of a man. So… wouldn’t you like to see Kaede Kisaragi in a bikini at least once?”
“Hmm… I won’t deny I’d like to see Kisaragi-san in a bikini. But I don’t need to do anything shady. Summer is coming soon, and with it, the swimming classes. I’ll get to see her in a swimsuit then.”
‥‥‥‥.
‥‥‥‥‥‥Yeah？
‥‥‥‥‥‥‥‥Wait a second, swimming classes… What!? Oh no, I totally forgot about that!!
There’s a lot more I need to worry about besides the bathroom!!
I need to discuss this urgently with Karen!!
“Heh, you’re foolish, lesbian. During swimming class, all you’ll see is her school swimsuit. There’s no way you’ll get to see Kaede Kisaragi in a bikini unless you seize this opportunity for a gravure photoshoot.”
“…B-but if I ask her out on a date during summer vacation, and we go to the pool together… I’ll see her in a bikini… surely…”
“Kukuku, she might refuse your date invitation. Even if you do manage to go on a date, there’s no guarantee she’ll wear a bikini… Kisaragi-san seems like the shy type who dislikes standing out. She wouldn’t choose a revealing bikini.”
“……”
Ginjou-senpai folded her arms and groaned, then suddenly widened her eyes and gripped my shoulders tightly.
She spoke with excitement.
“Kisaragi-san… Let’s agree to take these gravure photos!”
“…Huh? W-wait a second! Calm down, Ginjou-senpai!! You’re being tricked by that devious chuunibyou girl! Wake up!!”
“Who’s the chuunibyou? Francesca-san is the true ancestor of vampires. Don’t get that wrong.”
“Please, Kisaragi-san, for the sake of the surveillance camera… strip down for us!”
“No way!! I mean, really, no way!! If I wear a bikini, something terrible will happen!!”
My “Naumann’s Elephant” down there might pop out, leading to a serious arrest-worthy situation.
Seriously, I could be reported as a pervert by Hanako, so let’s not go there.
“But without the surveillance camera, what will happen to your bullied friend, blue-eyed one? Will you abandon them?”
“Th-That’s…”
“Exactly, Kisaragi-san! Wear the bikini!”
“Ginjou-senpai… I used to consider you one of the few normal people around me, but today, that view has changed…”
Now, the only normal one left is Honoka-chan!
In addition to the sadistic yandere lady, a violent tsundere actress, and now a lesbian girl who likes female bodies has been added! Hooray!
“Hmm… Even if I don’t like it, I guess I have to accept it for now…”
For now, I’ll borrow the surveillance camera from Hanako and figure out what to do about the gravure photoshoot later.
