Hajimete No Aku 70

Oh wow Kyouko. You just fulfilled so many otaku fetishes in this chapter alone. Trust me, you keep that up and your future will be the least of your worries. (And for the record, I have no interest in that stuff. Just Yuki. *Sage nod.*)

HAJIMETE NO AKU.
Both: On
Three!
(Side text- They came to hang out at Yuki’s house, but…)
(Sfx- Doooon *TWHAMM*)
(Sfx- Biri biri *wobb wobble*)
Jiro: No good, It didn’t even move an inch….
Kyouko: Nghhhhh!
Jiro: Hey!! Can anyone out there hear us?!
Kyouko: Yuki!! Aki!! Anyone!! Save us!!!

002
(Black box- The laughter melding pot comedy!)
HAJIMETE NO AKU.
(Side text- Volume 1-5 of the manga is in stores everywhere!!)
Jiro: Guh…no reaction at all….
Kyouko: Yuki’s house is too ridiculously big…
(Sfx- Zuru *sloooch*)
(Side text- The locked room event begins!!)
FUJIKI SHUN
Chapter 70: The duo trapped in a locked room.

003
Niimi: Our security is top notch.
{Shinonome house Maid- Niimi-san. (?)}
Niimi: That boy wearing the cape had broken in here before….
And so we had these installed to react to any outside stimulus and lock everything down.
(Sfx- Guuu *grip*)
Niimi: Observe by gripping the door handle.
(Sfx- Pikiiin *bweeeen*)
(Sfx- Gara garararara *claaaateer*)
(Sfx- Ban *shut*)
2.0: Wah!
Niimi: This will keep any vagrants who break in, from getting out.
2.0: Ah!

004
2.0: The security IS impressive! Did you do all of this yourself, Niimi-sama?!
Niimi: Yes, all for the sake of protecting our lady.
It comes in handy, since we just caught this intruder not too long ago.
(Sfx- Kushihihi *wobble*)
(Sfx- Baaaan)
2.0: It’s that ally of justice with the evil aura!!
Niimi: Of course this is expected of anyone who’s a maid here.
(Sfx- Fura fura *fwwish fwissh*)
(Sfx- Piko piko *wiff wfff*)
2.0: Amazing…
Simply amazing Niimi-sama! I think I can learn so much about being a maid from you!
Niimi: Fufufu…well said, my little kitten.
Aki: That’s fine and all, but at least open the door to this room.
(Sfx-Bishii *fwap*)
Aki: Geez, your maid has no idea what the word ‘overboard’ means does she?
Yuki: It’s just how she is.
{The story up until now: The gang came to hang out at Yuki’s place, but now everything has been locked down throughout the mansion. Inconvenient no?}

005
Niimi: We’re going to open the doors now m’lady. Excuse us.
Yuki: Go for it!
Midoritani: Shinonome-san is a rich girl huh…
She’s like a flower that’s out of my reach…
Yuki: I guess we’ll have to wile away the time with some good old fashioned cosplay!
Aki: I didn’t agree to that!!
(Handwritten- Why you!!)
Midortani: ……I think?
Niimi: ….Not good.
It seems that we’ve been locked in too.
This is most unfortunate…please accept my deepest apologies.
(Sfx- Geeeen *shooock*)
Aki: WAAAAAAAAAAIT!!
Yuki: So she’s like, a bit ditzy huh? As expected of a maid!
Aki: Aren’t you two taking this far too lightly?!
We can’t get out of here!!
Midoritani: I hope Jiro-kun and Watari-san are doing okay…

006
Kyouko: On three….One.
(Sfx Nyuu *fwip*)
Kyouko: I win!
(Handwritten- Adrian!!)
(TN- Rocky reference?)
Jiro: That’s 27 wins, to 32 losses.
I give up! You’re too strong!
Kyouko: And you give up too easily!
Though, why haven’t they saved us yet?
(Handwritten- I’ll confiscate this for security reasons.)
Jiro: I had to hand over my cape….if I had it, we’d be out of here already.
This is certainly a big room.
Kyouko: I know right?
Ugh, I’m getting no bars in here either…

007
Jiro: Final exams are coming up soon, aren’t they?
Kyouko: Yep, and I haven’t studied one bit yet.
(Sfx- Pori pori *scrtch scrtch*)
{Weird, I can’t seem to think of anything to talk about…}
{I’m always hanging around Jiro and smacking sense into his empty head, but I never imagined we’d be in a situation like this.}
Kyouko: Now that I think of it though…
Whenever we’re alone, the first thing he has on his mind is ‘modification’….
By the way Jiro….
Jiro: Hm?

008
Kyouko: After you modify me, what next?
Jiro: Have you finally decided to consent?!
Of course I’ll make you my henchman! You can even be a supervisor right up front…
(Sfx- gabaaa *fwipp*)
Kyouko: Hit the rewind there mister. Before we start talking positions, lets take it slow.
I think I remember you saying it before…
That you wanted to modify me into some mystery person right?
Jiro: Yeah.
Kyouko: But what if I’m useless even after modification?

009
Kyouko: Is that where your interest in me will end too?
Jiro: Hm?
Jiro: Well, it’s true I want to change you into a lean, mean, justice fighting machine…
But I never once gave thought to what would occur should the modification yield a failure.
In our current situation, we’d need strength more than anything.
Kyouko: I see…
It makes sense I guess, when you think of it as work…
Though it’s a little bit sad.
Jiro: Why would you ask a thing like that anyway?
Kyouko: Hm? Well…

010
Kyouko: I’m just thinking about the future.
Gazing at Yuki and the others, it’s obvious what they’ll go into eventually…
I wish I could be more like you, with a clear image of what I want to do in mind.
So I guess I’m just fishing around for an image that suits me.
Weird that I’d think of stuff like that, huh?
Jiro: Hmph.
But your cooking is amazing.
Couldn’t you turn that into a lifetime skill?

011
Kyouko: Huh?
Jiro: You have plenty of good points you know..
And if all else fails, you can always come and cook for me!
Let me be the one who does battle with the allies of Justice!
You can just follow me for the rest of your days….
(Sfx- Bishii)
Kyouko: HOLD ON A MINUTE!!
I’m still thinking about it! So you don’t have to worry!
Lets play ‘Kokkuri-san’ to pass the time!
Jiro: Kokkuri-san?! What’s that!?
(TN- It’s sort of like the Oueja boards.)
{Crap, this guy really doesn’t understand anything I’m saying! If I slip up and say the wrong thing in front of him, it could turn out to be disasterous!}
(Handwritten- Whoa! It’s moving on it’s own!!)
{Anyway, I have to figure out a way to get the two of us out of this room…!}

012
{Two hours later.}
Jiro: Ughhh….why hasn’t anyone come to save us…!?
My throat is drying up…
(Handwritten- Sorry to keep you waiting!)
(Handwritten- You’re so slow!)
Jiro: All right Kyouko, let’s try the door one more time….
Kyouko?
What’s the matter? Sleepy?
Kyo---
(Sfx- Guu *grip*)

013
(Sfx- Hah hah)
Kyouko: Huh?
Wh—What do you want Jiro?
Jiro: What’s wrong Kyouko?! You’re sweating profusely!!
Kyouko: A—Am I? D—Don’t worry about it, I’m fine.
Jiro: Morover, your face is completely drained of color…!!
Kyouko: I’m fine. Okay?
Uggh…I can’t possibly tell him the truth…
I really really need to use the bathroom!
(Sfx- Buru buru *shiver shiver*)
(Sfx- Gaku *wibble*)
Kyouko: Oh man…what will I do?!
(Sfx- Gacha gacha *clack clack*)

014
Aki: Hey Kyouko! You in there?!
Yuki: Jiro-kun!
(Sfx- wai wai*)
Kyouko: Aki!! Yuki!! Saved at last!!
Jiro: Yeah, we’re here!
Midoritani: Jiro-kun!!
Aki: Is Kyouko in there with you?
Kyouko: You guys are late! It’s getting really bad in here…
Yuki: Really bad?
Right! She’s in there alone with Jiro-kun!!
(Sfx- Pikiiiii *pooooit*)
Niimi: A girl and boy in a room together can’t end well…
2.0: Should I join in?
Yuki: Is anything ‘interesting’ about to happen?
Niimi: I hate to bring this up, but it is about time for a 30 minute break.
Aki: BREAK!?
Kyouko: GAHHHHHH!!!
(Sfx- Katsu *roar*)

015
Kyouko: W—wait! You can’t leave us hanging!
(Sfx- Yoro yoro *wobble*)
Yuki: So that’s not it then?
Oh, I get it, it’s not about to happen..but IS happening…
Everyone, stay back! It’s dangerous in there!
(Handwritten- I’m seriously about to cry!)
Kyouko: THAT IDIOT!
(Sfx- Gakuu *droop*)
Kyouko: O-oh no, I can’t move….
(Sfx- Gaku gaku *shiver shiver*)
Kyouko: I don’t think I can take this anymore…I don’t feel good…
Jiro: Enough of this nonsense!!
OPEN THE DOOR!!
(Sfx- Zatsuuu *Swifff*)
Kyouko: Craaap! Has he already noticed?!
(Sfx- Gaaaaan *drooooop*)

016
Jiro: I’ve had enough!!
Open it!!
???: Sorry about that, We’re opening it now!!
(Sfx- Gashuuu *veeen*)
Kyouko: Ah!
(Sfx- Hyoiii *wifff*)
Jiro: Tell me where the bathroom is Kyouko!!
Kyouko: D---Don’t carry me!!
Yuki: Looks like they’ve made some progress huh?
(Sfx- Datsu *dash*)

017
Kyouko: You knew huh…
Jiro: For goodness sake, just TELL me you need to use the restroom!
Kyouko: But…
Jiro: Enough. You might bite your tongue this way.
{In my time of need, it was Jiro who came to save me…}
{I hate to admit it, but I’m so happy he was here…}
{But I have to stay calm….he’s an idiot…!}
{I can’t let him get to me….}

018
Jiro: Not being honest with yourself is one of your weak points though…
If you don’t fix that, you’re always going to be unsure of your future, right?
Anyway, I guess your worrying has it’s cute points as well.
(Sfx- Zkyuuu)
Jiro: What’s the matter, Kyouko?
(Sfx- Posuu *blush*)
(Sfx- Fshuuu *ssshhh*)
{And so…}
Yuki: You’ve gotta tell me! What really happened when you two were in there alone?
Kyouko: I thought I had it all handled….turns out I’ve still got a long way to go…..
Shizuka: Nothing happened right?! Right?!
{And for the rest of that day, Kyouko really was useless.}
(Sfx- gaku gaku gaku *Shake shake shake*)
(Sfx- Wat wata *wiff wff*)
(Bottom text- Still so innocent, but hey, it’s a good point.)
