------------------------

"Yoo-hoo! I'm here to visit!"

Riko burst into the room noisily. Was this how she'd been all the way here?

"Hey. You on a break from a job?"

"Yeah, I am. Aria and Asuna will be here soon too. The three of us have to go on patrol later..."

A patrol, huh... So it's not a VIP protection detail? Or maybe it is.

"It's so tough, you know. Fighting, fighting, every single day... Seriously, there's nothing more annoying than people who get carried away with themselves."

So it's a job that's difficult enough to make her public and private personas mix. She's pretty loose-lipped, though. I might be able to get more information out of her.

"Ah, you just looked down on me, didn't you? I can tell everything!"

Sometimes, she'll say something sharp like that. I can usually tell if she's bluffing or if she knows for sure just by looking at her face, but types like Riko and Kuro are a real pain to deal with.

Well, I'm pretty bad myself.

I thought about that while watching Riko, who was going off on a tangent by herself, with her mood swinging wildly in front of me.

"—And then... Hmm? Sniff, sniff."

Riko started sniffing the air. What on earth was she doing? She stood up abruptly and started looking for something.

After wandering around for a while, Riko's eyes landed on a simple closet-like rack where visitors' coats are hung.

Ah, that's right, inside there is...

"Oh, look! I found this!"

She pulled out a pure white garment, a nurse's uniform, that was hanging on a hanger.

"How did you know that was there?"

I can't believe it, but she couldn't have known unless she'd checked beforehand. Did she sneak in while I was sleeping? But it would be weird for nothing to have happened if she did. Riko would have definitely pulled some kind of prank.

"Well, I've been smelling something ever since I came into this room."

"The smell of a nurse's uniform...?"

I've never heard of such a smell. I can't detect it.

"...So why is something like this in the closet? Was it a gift from someone?"

"Who would give a gift like that?"

"Oh, so you brought it yourself?"

"That makes even less sense."

A nurse's uniform as a gift or brought in by yourself—that's a new level of culture.

"Ah!!"

Riko clapped her hands, as if to say, "I get it, a lightbulb just went off!"

"You wanted to play nurse with someone since you're in the hospital, right?! Right? I'm right, aren't I?"

"...I'm not gonna do something like that."

"...Oh?"

I bit my tongue. I haven't used the nurse's uniform, but since I've already done it once, it's hard to deny.

"Jeez, you're hopeless! If you insist so much, I'll take care of you in this nurse's uniform!"

"Wait, I didn't say anything..."

Riko, who wasn't listening to me at all, suddenly started pulling up her frilly, modified school uniform. She was clearly excited. Is she just doing this because she wants to wear it herself?

Her clothes snagged as she took them off, and the two mountains wrapped in gold underwear shook significantly. Even though I've had plenty of experience, my eyes instinctively looked away. The slight indentations of the slightly small underwear into the two plump mounds were seared into my eyes.

Next, her skirt was thrown off. Unfortunately, from this position, the device on my right hand obscured the view. More importantly, she was in her underwear in the blink of an eye. Her uniform was scattered on the floor without being folded.

The best possible sight was unfolding before my eyes, but it wasn't over yet.

Riko picked up the white uniform and began to put it on.

"Mm, there... Hmm, is it a little tight...?"

She had trouble with the buttons in the front. The reason, of course, was obvious. Even after she finally managed to get it on, the buttons holding the front together seemed to be screaming. It looked like they could pop off at any moment.

Finally, she put on the cap, and the transformation was complete. The pure white uniform with her striking golden hair was an accent. If a nurse like this was around, even the injuries that should heal wouldn't.

"Well then, excuse me..."

She cautiously slipped under the covers and snuggled up to my left side.

"Is this taking care of me?"

"Hmm, taking care of your heart. Isn't your weary heart being soothed?"

...I'll avoid mentioning whose weary heart she's talking about.

Since one of my arms was unusable, I couldn't pull her close, but I relaxed and accepted Riko.

"Hey, Sho."

"What is it?"

"Say my name."

"Riko."

"Mm..."

Riko had been so hyped on the plane that day when she declared she would fight Vlad, but as time passed and she calmed down, fear must have set in. The trauma Vlad inflicted on her in her childhood was that profound.

As the one who convinced Riko to make that decision, I have a duty to support her in her anxiety.

Riko's body slowly shifted closer. And as it did, the area of contact between us increased. With every bit of her softness I felt, I could feel the blood rushing to my lower half.

We stared at each other in silence, then slowly our lips met. The moment Riko's lips, which were surprisingly thick for her appearance, touched mine, a sweet vanilla-like scent filled the air, and her two soft mounds became a cushion between us.

The rebound force of her crushed twin hills was a pleasant stimulus that made my member even harder.

"Mmf... chu-ru... kuchu... chu-ryu... kuchu-ru..."

Before I knew it, our simple kiss had turned into something more intense. Riko's tongue, which had entered my mouth, traced my gums and intertwined with my tongue.

I secretly moved my hips. Although we were separated by a thin layer of cloth, the pleasure of our genitals rubbing against each other sent a shiver down my spine.

I pulled away for air. A string of saliva connected our mouths, and our sticky breaths rapidly increased the humidity in the small space between our faces.

With a watery look in her eyes, Riko moved her hand down, tracing my member, which was clearly throbbing even over my pants.

"I can tell even through your pants, Sho-kun. Your penis is throbbing. It's so hard, isn't it? And it's so thick and hot. How many girls have you made cry with this?"

"...!"

Every word from Riko was trying to strip me of my sanity.

"Should we just do it, right here? In the hospital, and in the middle of the day. Should we do something lewd, you and me?"

Just as I was about to half-heartedly agree to her seductive words,

"Sho, we came to visit—"

"How are you feeling, Sho-ku—"

"..."

—Asuna and Aria arrived.

Their gazes were directed at the unnaturally bulging futon. And then at Riko, who was clinging to me.

"Die."

Aria's words were so direct they came full circle. With her pupils dilated, Aria reached for her skirt. Her target was the handgun she kept there. She seemed to have forgotten this was a hospital.

Asuna was smiling, but it wasn't a real smile. The fact that she wasn't stopping Aria from pulling out her gun showed the extent of her anger. The usually level-headed Asuna didn't seem to care that a gun was being pointed at a comrade.

"Kage, Dark Shadow!"

I couldn't have a gun go off in a hospital. The black bird monster tried to hold Aria back—but couldn't?!

(W-What is this?! The power of this girl!)

(Try your best to hold her! Or I'm gonna die!)

Aria didn't stop until all her weapons were taken away and her body was restrained.

As she was being pulled away, Riko whispered in a small voice,

"...The real thing will have to wait until you're discharged."

And with that, the erection in my lower abdomen became painful and was left untreated.

---------

"Aria-chan, guns are not allowed in the hospital."

"Yes, I know. I wasn't thinking straight either. I know that drawing my gun so easily... was wrong."

Aria emphasized the 'was.' She was avoiding eye contact with me and Riko. Is she saying I'm the one to blame? You're absolutely right. Anyone would lose their composure if they saw their friend doing that.

"Riko-chan, this is a hospital, you know? What you did wasn't very good..."

"Okay, I'll be more careful next time!"

She didn't seem remorseful at all.

"So, would you mind explaining why a uniform like this is here...?"

"Asuna, smile. You forgot to smile."

This was more terrifying than being attacked by White Snake.

"You know I'm innocent, right? I was carried in here in an injured state."

"But the evidence is right here, isn't it?"

Aria pointed to the nurse's uniform Riko was wearing. Her face said, "The evidence is here."

"Besides, there's no benefit to leaving something like this in a hospital room."

So this is how false accusations are made. I felt like I had become a little bit wiser. In reality, all my escape routes had just been blocked.

Actually, in the end, it turned out that Dr. Mikado left the nurse's uniform here. I confirmed it when she came to see me the other day. Apparently, she did it just to mess with me, so she probably wouldn't help me clear my name. She'd probably enjoy this situation.

When I was at a loss for words, Riko changed the atmosphere with her cheerful tone.

"Come on now! Who cares about that? Since it's here, you two should try it on too!"

"...I'm not interested in a uniform like that."

Aria coldly dismissed her, but Riko wasn't going to let that slide.

"Oh, right, right. This uniform would be too big for you, Aria! Oops, my bad."

"My height isn't that different from yours!!"

Height, maybe.

"Heh heh, yeah... It would be a pretty flat, un-curvy look on you, wouldn't it... Especially in the front."

"I'll kill you."

Aria and Riko started a wrestling match.

I knew what Riko was getting at. Riko has some impressive assets for her small frame. I knew that from when she was wearing the nurse's uniform just now. I don't know whose size it was made for, but it seemed a bit big on Riko. Except for the one part that was pushing the fabric to its limit.

On the other hand, Aria's body could pass for a grade schooler's. In the original story, she used a padded bra, but you can't fight against cruel reality. Maybe she could pull it off with the right clothes? This nurse's uniform was a definite no, though.

"Besides, Riko! You, this!"

Aria was bright red, pointing at Riko's uniform that was scattered on the floor.

"D-D-Did you really change in here?! With Sho in the room?!"

"Huh? Yeah, I did. Why?"

Aria's face turned even redder as Riko answered so casually.

"Why?! You don't ask why! You... you're not supposed to do that in front of a boy..."

She was so embarrassed that her voice became a whisper at the end. Riko, in turn, started teasing her again.

"Well, well, Aria, you're so innocent, so childlike. A grown woman doesn't think anything of being naked in front of a man, you know?"

That's not true.

"A grown woman should be able to seduce a man with her body! With her body, you know?"

"You really want to fight, don't you...!"

She finally snapped at Riko's obviously condescending attitude. I really wish they wouldn't use their full power in a hospital room. When they're done, this room will look like a tornado passed through it. And the nurses will give me a dirty look for it.

But it's probably impossible to stop an enraged Aria and a battle-hungry Riko. They need to blow off some steam, or even Dark Shadow would be overpowered.

As I took on a resigned expression, Asuna came over. Her anger seemed to have subsided quite a bit.

"I'm glad to see you're doing well, Sho-kun."

"Those two seem fine, too. Ah, the vase broke..."

The vase shattered on the floor. The water inside made the floor wet. The fact that Asuna and I weren't fazed by a broken vase showed we were getting used to this world.

"You and Riko did something lewd, didn't you?"

"Yeah, we did. But let me tell you—"

"I know. Riko started it, didn't she? And Riko brought that nurse's uniform, right?"

Ah, that's not quite right. Please just continue to be happily mistaken. In this case, Riko's hobby being in that direction worked out in my favor.

"Riko has her own reasons for things."

"You also made a promise to Riko-chan, didn't you?"

"About Vlad, you mean."

Asuna nodded. Everyone was aware of Riko's situation. If we hadn't been, Aria probably wouldn't have agreed to live with her.

"Actually, this whole incident is related to Vlad."

"...Huh? What do you mean?"

I explained the details of the incident. Asuna's face grew more and more serious as I spoke.

"Then it was really good luck that you were with Kirin-chan and Einhart-chan..."

"Yeah. We might not be able to afford to be so leisurely anymore, like looking for evidence. We might have to go in and fight him head-on, if it comes to that."

I said it as a joke, but Asuna didn't seem to take it that way.

"If it comes to that, we're definitely going with you."

"O-Of course."

...I'll think about it.

I thought that as I watched Asuna go to stop Riko, who was doing everything she could to provoke Aria, and I checked on my newly acquired ability.
