21st Century Necromancer-Chapter 404 - 401 Following (5th Update, Ask for Subscription, Ask for Monthly Tickets)

As Chen Yu and Misumi Mikoto were dining together, Tokairin Yūko was monitoring them from outside the restaurant through her cellphone’s camera.

Although it was the season of blooming flowers and warm spring, the streets of Tokyo still carried a chill at night.

Tokairin Yūko’s nose felt icy cold; she was desperately looking for a warm place to drink something hot and warm up. However, seeing Misumi Mikoto enjoying her meal so happily with Chen Yu, Tokairin Yūko didn’t dare to relax, afraid that the two might disappear in the blink of an eye.

Although Chen Yu and Misumi Mikoto were just seemingly having a normal meal, watching the smile that bloomed on Misumi Mikoto’s face, Tokairin Yūko couldn’t believe that she had no feelings for Chen Yu.

As for Chen Yu on the other hand, Tokairin Yūko had to admit that the man indeed possessed the charm and qualities that made women willingly become his lovers.

A thirty-year-old associate professor at the University Hospital, a University of Tokyo graduate, not only promising and young but also good-looking—not the stereotypical nerdy type. Perhaps he was a bit plain, lacking the handsomeness of a movie star, but his scholarly aura still made him very attractive and charming. At least Tokairin Yūko knew that if Chen Yu were interested in her, there was a high chance she couldn’t resist him, and she would choose to become his lover.

So despite shivering slightly from the cold, with many passersby giving her strange looks, Tokairin Yūko continued to monitor Misumi Mikoto and Chen Yu earnestly.

As the two were nearly finished with their meal, Tokairin Yūko sighed with a sense of relief internally but remained vigilant, considering that after the meal, the two might either go their separate ways, or it would follow the typical script of an affair where they would seek out a love hotel.

Under Tokairin Yūko’s tense surveillance, Chen Yu and Misumi Mikoto settled their bill and then left the restaurant together.

Seeing the demeanor of the two, Tokairin Yūko couldn’t easily judge their relationship. At least Chen Yu didn’t seem to be affectionate towards Misumi Mikoto; he just looked like someone who had just finished dining with a friend. It seemed like there might not be a romantic relationship between them.

But Tokairin Yūko was hesitant to make a judgment; after all, in Japan, infidelity among men is all too common. Many times, these men are excellent actors who, even if they’ve already been intimate, can still act as if nothing has happened.

So Tokairin Yūko decided to keep following them, just in case she made a wrong judgment that could lead to a big mistake.

Furthermore, Tokairin Yūko clearly sensed admiration and adoration in the way Misumi Mikoto looked at Chen Yu.

As a woman, especially one who frequents various mixed-gender social events, Tokairin Yūko had a profound understanding of both men and women. When a woman looks at a man with adoration, in reality, as long as that man isn’t too foolish, winning her over isn’t a difficult task.

This was primarily why Tokairin Yūko couldn’t set her worries about Misumi Mikoto aside. After all, there are very few men in this world who can resist and remain unaffected when faced with the advances of a beautiful woman like Misumi Mikoto.

Following Chen Yu and Misumi Mikoto, Tokairin Yūko carefully concealed herself to avoid detection.

What puzzled Tokairin Yūko was that Chen Yu and Misumi Mikoto didn’t seem interested in going to a love hotel. They passed by several love hotels and didn’t enter any of them.

Love hotels have become a very common sight in Japan; no ID is needed to check in. In fact, you don’t even see any staff members, as they offer the most private services, making them a perfect place for Japanese people to have an affair.

The social mores in Japan and those across the sea in that large country are quite different. There are, of course, married Japanese who remain loyal to their spouses, but many Japanese are more open-minded, especially in large cities like Tokyo.

Once, a variety show interviewed a so-called love-ban Japanese idol group, asking them after how many meetings they would go home with a guy. Their answer was three times.

And such a number is considered relatively conservative among Japanese. Bear in mind that going home with a man implies more than just hanging out at his place.

Among office workers, the rate of extramarital affairs is even higher. Thus, it’s hardly surprising that Japan has the most advanced love hotel industry in the world.

In Japanese love hotels, all you need to do is walk in, pick the room you want, and just remember to pay when you leave. These hotels operate in a way that you won’t see anyone throughout your stay, providing an extremely considerate service and the perfect spot for a secret rendezvous.

Chen Yu certainly noticed someone following him and Misumi Mikoto, but since he didn’t sense any malice, he didn’t pay much mind to it, letting the person follow them.

As for Misumi Mikoto by his side, Chen Yu shook his head slightly. His student seemed to lack talent in this area, clearly oblivious to the fact that they were being followed.

However, for an ordinary person living in a peaceful and safe environment like Peace, this wasn’t strange. Even Chen Yu himself was just an ordinary person before he obtained the "Multiverse Universal Necromancy Spell Compendium" and became different.

Of course, even though he wasn’t concerned about the person following them, Chen Yu still disliked being tailed. So when he saw a shopping mall on the side of the road, he abruptly grabbed Misumi Mikoto and turned into the mall.

"Eh? Professor?" Misumi Mikoto was somewhat confused as Chen Yu pulled her into the mall. He had told her that he was taking her to perform a spell practice test, but now they ended up in a mall, which perplexed her.

"Someone is following us," Chen Yu explained briefly as he led Misumi Mikoto into a crowded store. Blending in with the stream of people and no longer feeling watched, he grasped Misumi Mikoto’s arm and, before she could react, instantly transported her to his Necromantic Space.

Meanwhile, in the store they had entered, Tokairin Yūko who had waited without seeing them reappear finally could not contain herself and walked into the store. However, after looking around, she couldn’t find Chen Yu and Misumi Mikoto and simply stood there, baffled, with no idea what had just happened.
