Free Web NovelChapter 489: BCL Chapter 484 Soyo: Take this—Void Pregnancy Jutsu!
Seeing Mutsumi and Tomori both apologize, Taki immediately couldn’t sit still. Her pearly teeth bit her lower lip, her face filled with endless regret:
"The one who should be saying sorry is actually me... Tomori already reminded me not to wear the bracelet, but I couldn’t resist... It’s all because I was careless..."
Taki regretted more and more as she spoke.
If there was a bottle of regret medicine in front of her, she would definitely chug it down without hesitation.
The only way to switch bodies back was to do that kind of thing?
Terrible!
It was simply too terrible!
Although it was Soyo’s body, her soul was her own, so she absolutely could not agree to such a thing!
"I’m sorry, it’s my fault..."
Soyo apologized in a low voice.
Tomori tilted her head and looked over:
"Why is Taki apologizing?"1
Soyo whispered:
"That... I am Soyo now."
"..."
Soyo knelt obediently, coughed lightly twice, then whispered:
"If I hadn’t come over tonight, I wouldn’t have accidentally Soul Exchanged with Taki."
Taki crossed her arms over her chest, and hearing this, she couldn’t help but say:
"The place you should really be apologizing for is clearly that you shouldn’t have crossed the final line with that scumbag Kitahara!"
But as the words reached her lips, Taki hesitated for two seconds, then silently swallowed them back.
It was a matter of mutual consent between two people, she had no right to complain... Besides, it was perfectly normal for high school sweethearts to sneak a taste of forbidden fruit, and neither set of parents would care.
"..."
The room fell silent again.
Finally, Soyo, with the best psychological resilience, broke the silence:
"That... does everyone want to take another bath?"
Hearing this, the temperature on the girls’ faces immediately rose.
Especially Taki, who had ridden the high-speed interstellar train to the very end without getting off in time, her clothes were now too wet to wear.
Mutsumi was the first to speak:
"Yes, let’s."
Tomori’s small face was flushed, her eyes shy:
"Let’s all go take a bath together?"
Taki bit her lower lip tightly, her small face burning, and said:
"This is our secret, we absolutely cannot tell Kitahara!"
Soyo raised a hand to cover her lips:
"I promise not to tell."
Tomori: "I won’t tell Makoto-kun."
Mutsumi: "I’ll keep it a secret."
"..."
The four girls quickly formed a united front, then quietly left the room, preparing to go downstairs to bathe, tiptoeing the whole time, afraid of waking Kitahara.
Unfortunately, what they didn’t know was that Kitahara was well aware of the secret of the Soul Swap, and had already guessed who had Soul Exchanged with Soyo...
The night passed without a word.
The next day.
Because she was preoccupied with the Soul Swap, Taki woke up early, then felt terribly thirsty. Having no choice, she quietly left the room and went downstairs for a drink.
"Strange, why am I so thirsty..."
Taki quickly realized the truth behind her thirst, and the temperature on her face quietly rose.
(D-Darn it!)
(Stop it, stop thinking about all that messy stuff, ahhh!)
Just as she managed to control her wandering thoughts, Taki’s steps suddenly halted, as she found someone already in the bathroom:4
"...Scumbag Kitahara?!"
At the same time.
Kitahara, hearing footsteps, turned his head and quickly saw ’Soyo’ alone.
Their eyes met.
Taki’s small face quickly flushed, and she instinctively turned to slip away.
But Kitahara spoke first:
"Soyo, you’re finally downstairs."
Last night in the Onsen Village, Kitahara had already known the true identity of the girl in front of him.
It couldn’t be anyone else but Taki.
The reason was simple.
Last night, only Soyo, Mutsumi, Tomori, and Taki stayed over. Mutsumi wasn’t wearing a bracelet, so the suspects were only Taki and Tomori.
And when ’Soyo’ woke up last night, her expression was exceptionally rich, and she called him ’Kitahara’... If it were Tomori, she would only call him ’Makoto-kun’, so the soul in Soyo’s body now must undoubtedly be Taki.
Since she had Soul Exchanged with Soyo... then of course, he had to properly tease her!
"Eh?"
Taki was slightly startled, and her raised right foot involuntarily stopped in mid-air.
(What does that mean?)
Kitahara waved with a normal expression:
"Soyo, come over quickly, I almost thought you forgot yesterday evening’s agreement."
(Agreement?)
(What agreement?)
Taki’s mind was blank.
Although she had swapped souls with Soyo, she hadn’t inherited each other’s memories, so she naturally didn’t remember yesterday evening’s ’agreement’.
However, after hesitating for a while, Taki finally quietly clenched her fists and walked to Kitahara’s side, trying her best not to show any unusual expression:7
"Of course I haven’t forgotten."
(Just bluff him for now... I’ll find a chance later to ask Soyo for clarification...)
Taki was still thinking of a delaying tactic when she suddenly felt a hand reach out and pull her directly into an embrace.
"Eh eh eh?!"
Taki immediately panicked:
"W-What are you doing?!"
(Does this guy want to do that kind of thing in the bathroom...)
(Don’t even think about it!)
(Everyone will be awake soon, I absolutely won’t let you do as you please!)
Just as Taki decided to expose herself, she suddenly heard Kitahara’s voice, sounding puzzled:
"We agreed to help with brushing teeth, why does Soyo look so nervous?"
"...Brushing teeth?"
Taki immediately breathed a sigh of relief, her body unconsciously relaxing.
(So it’s just brushing teeth...)
(Wait a minute!)
(Something’s not right!)
(If it’s just brushing teeth, why is that scumbag Kitahara hugging me?)
Kitahara took out a brand new, unopened toothbrush, quickly tore open the packaging, then squeezed out toothpaste:
"Soyo told me last night that she wanted to experience the way boys help girls brush their teeth in manga. Did Soyo forget?"
"I-I certainly didn’t forget..."
Taki instinctively denied it.
(Letting a boy help her brush her teeth?)
(Why does Soyo have such a terrible Hobbies?!)
"Good that you didn’t forget," Kitahara said simply, "Then let’s start quickly, everyone else will be up soon."
"W-Wait--"
Taki still wanted to struggle:
"I suddenly want to brush them myself..."
"Open your mouth."
Seeing the toothbrush reaching her, to avoid getting her face dirty, Taki involuntarily opened her mouth.
"Mmm..."
Taki let out a low hum, both embarrassed and angry.
(Why... why did I open my mouth just now?!)
Unfortunately, since it was already in, she couldn’t speak clearly now, so she naturally couldn’t make Kitahara take the toothbrush out.
(But it’s just brushing teeth, it seems acceptable...)
Taki slowly relaxed, preparing to fulfill the ’agreement’ between Kitahara and Soyo.
However, as time went on, Taki quickly realized she was too naive.
Looking at the two people in the mirror, the temperature on Taki’s face rapidly rose, and she felt the strength in her body quickly draining away, her hands involuntarily propped on the washbasin.
(D-Darn it... the brushing posture is too terrible!)
(Finish it already, ahhh!)
After an unknown amount of time, the tooth-brushing service finally ended.
"Whew..."
Taki let out a long breath, looking at herself in the mirror, teary-eyed and flushed, feeling wronged in her heart:
"I-It’s finally over..."
If it were the real Soyo, she might be very happy, but for herself, she couldn’t be happy at all!
"Open your mouth," Kitahara’s voice sounded, "I’ll check if it’s clean."
Taki hurriedly said:
"It’s already clean."
Kitahara said softly:
"Are you sure, Soyo?"
"One hundred percent sure!"
"..."
Taki replied while looking for an opportunity to slip away, but suddenly felt her body lighten and was directly picked up.
"W-what are you doing?"
Taki immediately tensed up.
Kitahara smiled:
"After brushing your teeth, of course, it’s a good morning kiss."
Taki’s eyes widened in panic, her small face flushed red:
"W-wait a minute..."
Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, the rest of her words were blocked in her mouth.
"Worst!"
"Awful!"
"To force someone against their will..."
Taki was both ashamed and angry, wanting to bite Kitahara hard to warn him not to push his luck, but Taki soon realized in a panic that her body’s instincts had reacted first—
’She’ skillfully opened her arms and wrapped them around Kitahara’s neck.
(Ahhh! How many times have you two kissed for your body to be so skilled?!)
After teasing Taki until her eyes were teary, Kitahara saw that the sky was already bright and estimated that everyone was about to wake up, so he finally let Taki go, satisfied.
After a simple breakfast, the girls prepared to leave.
Then a new problem quietly emerged before Taki and Soyo.
Where should they go now?
After swapping bodies, they definitely couldn’t go back to their own homes, right?
"Taki, why don’t we..."
Soyo looked helplessly at ’herself’.
"No!"
Taki bit her teeth lightly, decisively refused, and clenched her fists, saying:
"Let’s go to the performance hall together... I have a part-time job today, so Soyo, come with me, and I’ll guide you on how to work."
Soyo raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear:
"Working part-time is fine... But if we muddle through the day, what about the night?"
"Tonight..." Taki hesitated for two seconds, "Tonight, we’ll continue to stay here!"
Soyo softly agreed:
"That’s the only way..."
The next day quietly passed in busyness.
Kitahara and Hitori continued to attend driving school to accumulate hours, only one step away from taking the exam and getting their license. In the afternoon, he continued with Sakiko for the weight loss business.
Soyo, on the other hand, worked part-time with Taki. The hardships during that time aside, in the evening, Soyo suddenly received a message.
"Mom’s message... Eh, Grandma is sick?"
Soyo’s face immediately showed a look of tension.
"Grandma is old and fell while taking a bath. She is currently recuperating in the hospital... The summer vacation is almost over, so mom is taking a few days off and going to visit Grandma together..."
After reading the message, Soyo quickly bit her lower lip.
She had a very good relationship with her grandmother when she was little, often going to her grandmother’s house in the countryside during summer vacation. Now that her grandmother was unexpectedly injured and hospitalized, it was only right for her to go back with her mother.
The problem was, what to do now that she had swapped bodies with Taki?
Taki didn’t even know what her grandmother looked like, and as for telling her mother the truth... she definitely couldn’t say something like that!
"Hoo..."
Soyo exhaled softly:
"So, I can only ask Taki to swap our bodies back as soon as possible?"
Despite saying that, Soyo didn’t have much confidence.
Although they were once members of the same band, to be honest, their feelings were actually quite ordinary. The person she cared about was Sakiko, while the person Taki truly cared about was Tomori.
If Tomori asked for help, Taki would definitely agree without hesitation, but her own request...
"Even if she agrees, it would definitely be very reluctant, right?"
Soyo gently bit her lower lip, crossed her fingers, and propped up her chin, striking a standard commander’s thinking pose.
"Directly asking Taki is not feasible, so I should think from the opposite direction, to make Taki actively swap our bodies back within three days... But how should I do it?"
Soyo pondered this way and that, and suddenly her eyes lit up.
"Ah, I’ve got it!"
"Ask Kitahara-kun for a Wish Note!"
Although the way the Wish Note fulfills wishes is uncontrollable, setting aside the process and just looking at the result, at least the wish was fulfilled. For example, last night, she finally didn’t have any more nightmares.
In a flash, it was nine o’clock in the evening.
The girls successively came to soak in the pre-sleep onsen.
"Kitahara-kun, please give me a Wish Note."
Soyo came before Kitahara, extended her small hand, and said in a low voice.
Kitahara asked curiously:
"What does Taki want a Wish Note for?"
Presumably, the morning’s tooth-brushing service was too embarrassing, so Taki hadn’t settled accounts with Soyo, and Soyo was still diligently playing the role of Taki.
Kitahara enjoyed it, so he naturally wouldn’t expose her.
Soyo crossed her arms over her chest, imitating Taki’s movements and tone:
"Kitahara-kun, don’t ask so many questions about a girl’s business."
"Alright, then I won’t ask." Kitahara lowered his voice and said, "I can give you the Wish Note, but Taki has to provide corresponding compensation."6
"Eh?" frёeωebɳovel.com
Soyo opened her eyes in surprise.
Kitahara said as a matter of course:
"wish notes are very precious things. Taki wouldn’t just take it for free, would she?"
Soyo: "...Of course not."
"The compensation is actually very simple." Kitahara raised his hand and pointed to his cheek, "Taki, kiss me."
(...I knew it would be like this!)
Soyo’s cheeks puffed out slightly, and she complained in her heart.
(Kitahara-kun has become a super carnivore!)
Complaining aside, Soyo still imitated Taki’s personality, huffing and puffing for a while, then reluctantly stood on her tiptoes and kissed him.
"Very good." Kitahara smiled, "Given Taki’s sincerity, I’ll give you a Wish Note."
A moment later.
Soyo got the Wish Note and eagerly wrote down her wish.
[Hope Taki actively swaps our bodies back within three days...]
After she stopped writing, the Wish Note quickly turned into white light and quietly dissipated into the air.
"Hoo..."
Soyo breathed a sigh of relief:
"It seems the wish didn’t exceed the limit... How will it be realized next?"
At the same time.
Taki in the bathroom suddenly covered her mouth, only feeling a wave of discomfort surge into her heart, nauseous and wanting to vomit:
"Ugh—"
