Chapter 498 Chainsmoker Cat 2

Chapter 498: 498 Chainsmoker Cat 2

When the human woman who serializes erotic manga ’Ochinpo Tatsuro’ found us and asked like that, Penpen answered, and she made a fairly surprised expression.

Ochinpo Tatsuro had messy black bob hair and was wearing glasses, and she was a slightly chubby woman.

Her attire was fairly plain with a short-sleeved T-shirt and jeans.

By setting, she wasn’t really a well-selling manga artist, but looking at the fact that she has a long serialization in the original, employs assistants, and uses beastmen as part-time workers, she didn’t seem like a manga artist with no popularity at all.

When the yard became noisy, the landlord of the beastman apartment ’Otani Ouya’ came outside, and ’Yakuneko’ and ’Yanineko’ also poked their heads out from the veranda and looked outside.

"What happened?"

"Oh, it’s senpai’s Ferrari. It’s a car that’s hard to see in this neighborhood..."

"Is it an expensive car nya?"

"Well... I don’t know the exact price, but it will be at least 40 million yen."

"Huh! Such a large amount of money is beyond my imagination nya."

I first talked to the landlord.

"Are you, by any chance, the owner of this apartment?"

"Ah, yes... I am the owner of this apartment."

For some reason Ouya was completely frozen.

It seemed because I was wearing a suit and came driving a Ferrari.

Ouya was bald and had no eyebrows, and his neck was short and thick, so he looked like he had no neck at all.

And he had a belly sticking out, a typical neighborhood middle-aged man body type.

He was also plainly wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt and jeans and wearing slippers.

"Penpen wants to live in this apartment. Is it possible to make a contract?"

"Ah, I see. If it’s Penpen, we’re not strangers, so you’re more than welcome. The empty rooms now are... On the first floor, rooms 103 and 104 are empty, and on the second floor, rooms 202 and 205 are empty."

Room 101 of the beastman house was where the landlord lived, and right next to it in room 102 lived the landlord’s niece Hikineko.

But the problem was that these two did self-pleasure violently almost every day, so living in room 103 didn’t seem appropriate.

Room 104 also had a problem.

Right above, in room 204, lives Yanineko — she is a girl and an enormous chainsmoker — and the problem with this girl is that she throws cigarette ashes and butts as well as all kinds of trash down below without any hesitation.

The landlord cleans well, but it wouldn’t be a very pleasant experience to be hit by such filth when coming out to the yard.

Then the remaining options were rooms 202 and 205 on the second floor.

Since Hameneeko was living in room 201 and doing a personal broadcast, it didn’t seem appropriate for Penpen who has to hide her identity.

In the end, I decided to choose room 205 as the place for Penpen to stay.

I was a little concerned about Yanineko next door, but it still looked better than other places.

"Let’s do room 205."

"Understood. I’ll bring the contract right away."

The deposit for the beastman apartment was 100,000 yen and the monthly rent was 35,000 yen, which was quite cheap.

I thought it was probably because it’s an apartment where beastmen live.

I paid 5 years’ worth of monthly rent all at once on the spot.

Ouya was a little surprised, but he didn’t refuse and accepted it as it was.

In fact, Penpen was not going to live here for 5 years.

I just calculated it like that thinking of it as a kind of donation for the landlord who suffers every day because of the beastmen.

The room was clean as the owner Ouya always manages it.

So it didn’t seem necessary to clean separately.

I received two keys, one I would keep and one Penpen would keep.

"Since there’s nothing for now, we need to go buy some stuff."

"Yeah."

As soon as the contract ended, Penpen and I went to the mart and started buying necessary things.

We bought daily necessities, futon, pillows, kotatsu, dishes, pots, various cleaning tools, Penpen Neko’s clothes and underwear, etc., but all of this couldn’t possibly fit in the Ferrari, so large things like pots and kotatsu had to be delivered.

Penpen came out after roughly changing into clothes bought at the mart, and she was definitely a girl with a good figure.

Especially her mid was considerable.

However, for fear that someone might recognize her, she made sure to wear a bucket hat to cover her head and face.

"Thank you, Jin. For taking care of this and that."

"No, don’t worry about it. Oh, it’s going to be hard to use water and gas right away today, so it would be good to buy some food to take. No, it would be better to just order delivery. Since it’s the first day of moving in, it would be good to celebrate and call friends to eat together."

"Yeah, let’s do that."

And while we were out, I also opened a cell phone in my name for Penpen.

After finishing shopping and returning to the beastman apartment again, we organized the luggage we bought and ordered food.

To the residents of the beastman apartment, Penpen went around and told them there would be a celebration party.

Then before long, many people, beastmen gathered in Penpen’s room.

"Whoa, it’s a luxury sushi set nya! Delicious nya!"

Yanineko started eating as soon as the sushi set was delivered, opening the packaging.

She had light jade-colored short hair, and her hair was sticking out here and there as if she hadn’t even brushed it properly, so it looked quite messy.

It seemed she usually doesn’t take care of her appearance at all.

Moreover, the T-shirt she was wearing was old, so the neck part was stretched out as much as it could be, and the color had also turned a little yellowish.

But what was certain was that, apart from such shabby appearance, she was quite a beauty as per the setting.

Moreover, her figure was also quite glamorous.

"Hey hey, you gorge as soon as delivery comes? At this rate, you’re not a delivery man but a mouth-delivery man! Huhu... mouth-delivery man... I made it myself but I made it well this time."

"..."

When Yanineko did that, a beastman with long light brown hair next to her made a strange gag and then laughed to herself as if satisfied, but the people around were expressionless.

She was Kansai Neko.

Kansai Neko was also quite a beauty, but compared to other beastmen, she was tall and had quite good body proportions and dressed quite stylishly.

But her gag talent was, as expected, nonexistent.

It seems she tries hard to make people around her laugh, but unfortunately, it’s not funny at all.

So I also gave up on Kansai.

I have no idea how to react to such gags.

"I’m really surprised! I never thought Penpen would have such a handsome fiancé."

The beastman who is talking now was ’Yakuneko’ with yellow short hair.

If there is the most pitiful beastman in the beastman house, it would undoubtedly be this girl.

Yakuneko was originally diligent and sociable, a model student, but she gradually became broken while suffering severe domestic violence.

She dyed her hair yellow and started touching tonics, and eventually became an ex-convict who even went to jail.

In a situation where she is already discriminated against because she is a beastman, with the label of ex-convict attached, life became even harder.

Not only does a supervisor come sometimes, but she couldn’t even make a bank account, and part-time jobs kept getting cut because she was a drug offender.

If there is a bottom, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she has already pierced even that bottom and gone down underground.

’This girl I need to take care of separately.’

Even though her life was ruined like that, she is still diligent, so if I give her work, she will do it well.

"Kuhing... You traitor! I haven’t even held a man’s hand yet! How far did you go?! On top of junior? Outdoor sex? Daisuki hold?"

The female beastman who looks like a chuunibyou shaking Penpen while shedding tears was Hameneeko.

She had black hair with pink bridges, and was quite skinny and flat-chested.

Her job is a YouTuber, and she seems to be quite popular, so it doesn’t seem like she’s short on money.

And she has been friends with Yakuneko since school days, but doesn’t seem to be close enough to open up and talk.

But it seems they maintain enough friendship to just overlook severe pranks or travel together.

Honestly, both don’t seem to have many friends.

Lastly, the beastman sitting next to Kansai Neko quietly eating sushi and sipping alcohol was Aruneeko.

She had abundant brown hair, and was tying it up on top of her head so that her bangs wouldn’t cover her face.

She is short and her face is extremely baby-faced, so she looks just like an elementary school student, but contrary to her appearance, her age by setting is as much as 24 years old, the oldest among the beastmen here.

Due to serious alcoholism, she drinks alcohol every day, so she couldn’t properly attend school, and eventually she repeated grades and still remains as a 3rd year without graduating from university.

She often leaves alone to strange places out of the blue while drunk and hazy.

So Kansai Neko and Yakuneko, and the landlord often take care of her.

Still, her family seems to be somewhat well-off, as there seems to be no problem even though she spends an enormous amount of money on alcohol.

"Come come come, since the family of the beastman house has increased, let’s all have a drink."

When the landlord Ouya said that holding a glass, everyone held a glass and toasted.

"Oh right, this house still doesn’t have running water, so everyone use the next-door bathroom. Is that okay? Yanineko, teacher."

"If you give me a lot of sushi, I don’t care nya."

"I don’t care either. By the way, Penpen, introduce me to your super handsome boyfriend. When I first saw him, I thought he was a model? If you ride a Ferrari, you seem to be super rich."

Then Penpen introduced me.

"Jin is an investor. He seems to be investing in various large companies, but I don’t know the details either. Being fiancés was decided by our parents when we were young."

I also greeted.

"Nice to meet you. I’m Jin, please take care of me from now on."

Then Hameneeko predicted the relationship between Penpen and me.

Of course, it was speculation.

"Heee... A story that would appear in a drama. Not forgetting his fiancée from a ruined family and coming to find her and take care of her, he was a good person."

It seems she misunderstands like that because Penpen Neko was homeless.

If she misunderstands like that, it’s rather thank you.

"Oh! This would be good as a manga material too?"

"Yeah, it would be interesting."

While they were eating sushi deliciously and drinking alcohol and having fun conversations, I looked at their bodies using [Naked Eye].

But unexpectedly, I learned that beastmen’s bodies are much stronger than humans.

Moreover, cell aging hardly occurs unlike humans.

But that doesn’t mean they don’t get sick.

Yanineko’s lungs were already considerably damaged, and Aruneeko was also just before going into liver cirrhosis.

I thought Yanineko would die first, but rather Aruneeko was in a more dangerous state.

And I also learned one interesting fact.

Yanineko was spending all the money she earns on buying cigarettes, so I was curious how she usually makes a living.

But this time that question was solved.

Seeing parasites crawling inside her body, it seems that when she has no money, she catches insects outside and eats them to solve meals.

She is no different from Penpen Neko who was homeless.

"Jin, Penpen ate well."

"It was really delicious nya!"

The celebration party ended and everyone returned to their own homes.

I was glad that everyone ate deliciously.

"I’ll come in the morning. Since a lot of big luggage will come, you’ll need a man. Oh right, this is living expenses for the time being."

I handed 1 million yen to Penpen Neko.

Because she had to buy groceries and she might need money urgently if she missed some items or is sick somewhere.

"Thank you, I’ll use it well."

"Then see you tomorrow."

"Yeah, see you tomorrow."

And then I rode the Ferrari and returned to the mansion.

It seemed I needed to prepare one more practical vehicle that can carry many things.

There was a limit with the Ferrari.

Although the Benz V-Class is too big to use, and it was a bit awkward to use the employee-only vehicle as I pleased.

In the end, I decided to go to the used car dealership again tomorrow.

The next day, I moved to the beastman apartment early in the morning and had breakfast with Penpen with lunch boxes bought at the convenience store.

"Was there anything uncomfortable?"

"Yeah, there was a futon, so it was nice to be able to sleep warmly after a long time."

"From today, water will come out, so you can bathe as much as you want."

"That’s a relief, my body was starting to get itchy. Normally I would have washed in the river or fountain. I can wash with hot water now."

Listening to Penpen’s story, I could understand how trashy she lived when she was homeless by the river.

Honestly, I wonder how a rich family’s daughter endured and survived such a life.

It seems her mother’s Spartan education was so hard that she was willing to bear the inconvenience.

Anyway, that day we received the large items we bought yesterday and moved them, went to the mart to buy groceries to eat for a while and stored them in the refrigerator, and then made lunch together and ate it.

And then we went to the used car dealership and looked at various vehicles, and I saw a Volkswagen ID. Buzz, so it looked convenient for rough use, so I bought it right away and restored it with ability and brought it to the mansion.[Restore]

After that, two days passed and I drove the Buzz to the beastman apartment.

But I saw Yakuneko crouching in a corner and crying.

"What’s wrong? Why are you crying?"

When I asked that, Yaku hurriedly wiped her tears and greeted with a bright face as if nothing happened.

"Ah, Jin. It’s nothing. You came to see Penpen."

"It doesn’t seem like nothing."

"Th, that is... I was just cut from my part-time job."

As expected, she didn’t last long.

Yakuneko’s repertoire is always the same.

At first, she works diligently.

She does work quite well, so she gets good evaluations from people around.

But the moment it is known that she is an ex-convict, everything changes.

Eventually, she gets cut from the shop, and one job she barely got disappears again.

Then Yakuneko touches the tonic again.

With the help of people around, she barely comes to her senses, vows never to do it again, and gets a job again.

And starts again from the beginning.

But before long, she gets cut again for being an ex-convict.

Work again, get cut again, touch drugs again, and barely get up again with someone’s help.

This keeps repeating.

No matter how hard she tries, everything becomes bubbles because of one ex-convict record in the past.

Yakuneko’s problem is not simply that she is unlucky.

The point is that she keeps repeating a life where when she barely grabs hope and stands up, someone tramples that hope again.

"Hmm... Can you drive?"

"Yeah... I can."

"Then can you pick up and drop off the employees in the morning and evening? Sometimes buy things if the mansion needs them. I’ll give you daily wages right away on the day and lend you a commuting vehicle too. How about it?"

At those words, Yakuneko thought and asked.

"Then, how much will you give for daily wage?"

"How about 20,000? I’ll give you a bonus on days with a lot of work."

The average monthly salary for a driver in Japan is about 200,000 to 330,000 yen, so it can be said to be quite a lot.

Thinking that she would work only 15 days a month because she would be used alternately with the existing driver, it would be 300,000 yen, so I thought she could sufficiently make a living even after paying taxes.

"That much?! I’ll try it."

"Okay. Then come from tomorrow. The address is..."

I thought it was rather good.

If I employ her, there will be no case of cutting her because she has an ex-convict record.
