I Chose to Fake My Death - Chapter 51

If you enjoy this novel I would appreciate you rating it on NU.

???? While I watched the long, growing list of messages, I was completely stupefied and speechless.

????  “Hey. Umm… can you stop staring at me like that? I didn’t call you over here for this! I called you because I needed you to help me!” (Hitomi)

I stated flatly while staring at him with a pretended angry expression, wanting him to flinch and waver, but it seemed to have very little effect.

Just as I was feeling overwhelmed and preparing to run away, another voice came from behind him. Was this the second person I called to come over? The legs that were prepared to run away moments ago, suddenly lost strength and I began to fall to my knees.

“Excuse me, are you Hitomi?”

A girl asked as she came up behind the boy. A girl, yes, it was a girl. Although, why it was a girl I had no idea. I thought the ‘two lucky viewers’ I called were both boys. So, how did one of them turn out to be a pretty girl? I wouldn’t have thought there would be girls in the audience for my broadcasts, right?

“Yes, that’s me. May I help you?” (Hitomi)

In keeping with the principle of being conscientious and responsible to people, I replied politely to her question. Seriously though, if I was outside, I wouldn’t have responded at all, but right now I had this idiot in front of me to deal with and honestly, it was more than a little embarrassing how he was looking at me. I responded to her in an attempt to break this awkward atmosphere, you know?

“That… Are you really Hitomi? Although, you are a little short, you are even cuter than I thought.”

The girl said a little timidly. I wonder why she was acting like that? Sure, I was a little bit smaller than she was, but why was she acting so strangely?

“Umm, I’m sorry.”

She said while I was trying to understand what was going on.

“Uh, I was asked to come to help you. You can call me Ling and I’m a boy.” (Ling)

After I heard this, I was stupefied, eyes wide, mouth hanging open kind of stupefied. Come on! Pull the other leg too! You were trying to tell me the person standing in front of me right now; wearing a pretty little skirt and looking like a very cute girl was actually a guy? Am I supposed to believe this? [Umu~] was he really a boy??

“Oh, okay. You two, come with me to sit down, it isn’t good to stand in the doorway like this.” (Hitomi)

Use ‘polite forceful words’ + use ‘something to divert attention from this situation’ = killing two awkward problems in one fell swoop.

Don’t ask me why I didn’t care about Ling’s sex. What I cared most about was that he seemed to be a good person. I absolutely didn’t believe that a good boy could become so feminine just by wearing cute clothes. I took the young man’s arms and pulled him into the house so he could no longer keep up his tendency to ask questions.

In the living room, we sat down on the couch while I continued to hold his arm. One reason being, there was a huge height difference between the other boy and the two of us. I was sure if you saw us like this we would look as if we were two sisters who get along really well. Well, I’d be honest, Ling he was quite slender. When he said he was a boy, I seriously didn’t believe him one little bit, because boys’ neither looked this cute, nor were their arms so soft and smooth. How could such a cute looking actually girl be a guy?

Well, anyway, that’s why I was pressing my breasts into him now (Yes, I know I don’t have all that much). If she was a boy, she’d show me something soon! Don’t ask me how I knew it. I just knew it!

“— and that’s how it is everyone. I want to go out and buy some clothes, but the girl who usually buys my clothes (Sia) is not here. So all I have here is a black Gothic dress and it isn’t as if I can wear that out. Which means I have nothing to wear to go out at the moment. That’s why I’m dressed this way. Hey, you’re not allowed to take my picture anymore!!!” (Hitomi)

I said angrily, taking the phone from the tall boy and erasing all the photos he had taken of me.

“Uh, Hitomi. You doing that to me isn’t going to accomplish anything. I have no good way to prove it to you, but please believe me, I am a boy.” (Ling)

After she said that, I placed my hand on her breast, and yes, she’s even flatter than me.

Well, I was just kidding. How could I do something so wrong? Whether she was a real girl or not, if I were to do something like that I would be in the wrong, however you wanted to look at it. Anyway, I was just a sexually transformed guy. Me touching men or women was just perverted [Ehen].

“Anyway, in short, our task is to buy me clothes within three hours, so I can do a Cosplay broadcast. Damn it! Why are you still taking pictures of me?! Leave!!!” (Hitomi)

I shouted pretending to be angry with the tall boy, while ignoring anything he might say and hugging Ling a little bit tighter.

It was not easy to meet someone who I could hold comfortably or for me to feel so comfortable being held. Honestly, I didn’t want to let go, ever! It made me feel as if all the stress from dealing with my retarded owner Yu was being washed away.
