Our Everyday Act: Me and Toroko

[Pre-Release: After My Husband Died Young, I Became the Organization's Leader] Synopsis: Just a few days after becoming the sheriff of Section 13, Xiao Yu made a mistake, and Sheriff Black took over Section 13 again. To make up for it, Xiao Yu was sent to Neon to go undercover and investigate the Black Organization. For her safety, Sheriff Black even got her permission to bring her talismans along. Following Sheriff Black's instructions, Xiao Yu went to Neon disguised as an ordinary bubble tea shop owner. Her neighbors were all friendly, and she fell in love at first sight with the waiter at the coffee shop next door. As she investigated, Xiao Yu pursued the young waiter. Having never been in a relationship before, Xiao Yu only knew how to be direct. She had no idea how to be tactful, and her 99 confessions all failed. The excuse he used to turn her down was the ridiculous line, "My lover is my country." She had thought he was just an ordinary waiter, until... During a chase, Xiao Yu, talismans in hand, beat the enemy until they were begging for mercy. Just then, the waiter came hurtling down from the sky in a car that he drove like a spaceship, and they unexpectedly came face to face. In the 0.001 seconds their eyes met, Xiao Yu had only one thought: Damn it, someone's been playing me. / Amuro, who was undercover near the Mori Detective Agency and dutifully working as a waiter, was relentlessly pursued by the owner of a newly opened bubble tea shop. He turned her down countless times, but she still wouldn't give up. As an undercover agent who walked in darkness, falling in love and having a girlfriend had never been part of his plans. Especially since she was an ordinary person, and being together would mean constantly worrying about her safety. Until... During an operation, the ordinary woman he knew threw punches at Vodka, kicked a rocket launcher, then pulled out strange talismans and unleashed a barrage at the sniper. That was an ordinary woman? She was a superhero! / The waiter who made her heart skip a beat was no ordinary man. The little kid staying at her neighbor's place was no ordinary kid either. The younger guy she knew was a phantom thief, her landlord, who looked like a high schooler, was a sorcerer, and the online friend she got along with was not only in the Mafia but also an executive. Xiao Yu: You people in Neon are incredible. Every last one of you is a fake. A certain waiter: Takes one to know one. Xiao Yu finally understood. This must be what Old Master meant when he said to use magic to defeat magic. Pairing: Xiao Yu x Tooru. Note: An out-of-character slice-of-life story told in a casual, episodic style. 2022.10.23 Pre-Release After My Husband Died Young, I Became the Organization's Leader After my husband, whom I'd only recently married, died, I joined forces with his trusted right-hand man and helped him make me the organization's leader. Two years later, the neighboring Port Mafia got a new leader. Internal strife was constant, and the new boss's position was precarious. Then the new leader next door sent me an invitation, proposing a marriage alliance to unite our two organizations and, by the way, use my influence to secure his position. After thinking it over, I agreed. I planned to repeat my old approach: kill my new husband, take control of both organizations, and become Yokohama's one and only ruler. The newlyweds each had their own plans, and they were "fighting" in and out of bed. My new husband wasn't going to die anytime soon, and I had my eye on his subordinates. I was determined to cuckold him, digging furiously to poach all his capable executives. Married first, love later? Not a chance. For me, it's all about "getting promoted and rich" by having my husband die. / To secure my position as boss and absorb the Tsukimi Group's forces, I made a marriage pact with its leader. Before we were even married, the other party showed up with a line of lawyers, ready to have me sign a prenuptial agreement. After the wedding, my new wife and I shared a bed but not a dream, each plotting how to absorb the other's forces. Though we clashed constantly, my new wife took a third path. Afraid I wasn't being cuckolded enough, she pulled out every trick in the book, poaching my people whether I was watching or not. What kind of husband am I? Just a poor sucker. / How delightful. My wife failed to poach them. One remained unmoved, while another defected to the enemy. How tragic. I failed to poach my husband's subordinates, but my beloved stepdaughter is still my husband's ability incarnate. If he dies, she'll disappear too. That's life. You never know what to expect. Theme: Treat people sincerely, and you'll be rewarded with their sincerity.
