I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo
Chapter 346 - Delicious Strawberry
Mother Farm is massive. It is an overwhelming 2.5 million square meters in size. In other words, this vast meadowland is big enough to contain 350 football stadiums.
With how massive this place was, it was simply impossible for them to walk around with their feet, so they decided to rent the sightseeing bus to tour around this farm.
There are two kinds of sightseeing buses: the Wanwan Bus (Dog) and the Tonton Bus (Pig).
There was a pig in their group already, so they decided to take the Wanwan bus (Dog).
"Hey, is that pig is me?" Shiro-san asked with a flush on his face, but everyone decided to ignore him since they knew that he would be happy this way.
As they rode on the bus, Misaki excitedly poked her head out, watching the scenery of the farm.
Still, Yukinoshita thought that she needed to complain to the operator of this farm since there wasn't any Nyanyan bus (Cat).
"It's amazing!"
Misaki could imagine that this place was ravaged by the fight of two robots with how vast this farm was.
Still, if someone didn't know Misaki that well, they would think that the reason why she was excited was that she loved this place, which was kind of a cute reason.
Yukinoshita thought like that since Misaki was quite childish. "Kamiigusa-senpai, be careful. Don't poke your head out of the window!" She tried to pull Misaki inside the bus.
"Call me, Misaki, Yukinon!" Misaki smiled and said, "Also, try to put your head outside. The wind feels nice."
"No, I don't want to. Also, don't call me Yukinon." Yukinoshita let out a tired sigh and wondered why everyone loved to call her "Yukinon," but at the same time, she wondered whether the reason why Shishio brought her here was to become everyone's babysitter?
Yukinoshita glanced at Shishio, who was sitting next to Shiina, and she might not notice, but she felt quite lonely somehow.
With the tour guide that guided them through the farm, they stopped at the group of alpacas.
"So fluffy!"
Sayaka smiled and acted as if she saw the cutest thing ever.
Shishio glanced at Sayaka and thought that if it was a normal guy, they might have fallen for this smile already. Unfortunately, there were no normal guys in this group.
"Still, they're too smelly," Sayaka said with a frown.
"....." Shishio.
"Shiro, your bangs are like an alpaca," Mayumi said with a laugh.
"Really? I'm not a pig now?" Shiro-san asked.
"..."
'What kind of conversation is that?' Everyone thought at the same time, but they didn't question them since they were afraid that they might be affected.
Still, when Ritsu looked at the alpaca closer, her body was pulled abruptly!
"Wh --?!"
When Ritsu was still in shock, she saw the alpaca suddenly spit out saliva toward her.
"Are you alright, Senpai?" Shishio asked.
"Th - Thank you, Shishio-kun..."
Ritsu sighed in relief since the alpaca almost spat her out.
"Hahaha... Ricchan was almost spat out by the alpaca!" Mayumi laughed so heartily when she saw Ritsu's plight.
"......." Everyone.
Still, when Mayumi laughed so hard, the alpaca suddenly spat out saliva toward her face.
"......." Everyone.
Mayumi was shocked, especially when a slimy, cloudy, and smelly liquid suddenly stuck onto her glasses and face.
"Um... Mayumi..." Chihiro wasn't sure what to say at that moment.
"BA - BASTARD!!!" Mayumi roared angrily and wanted to fight the alpaca, but everyone quickly stopped her. After all, they knew how big the alpaca was, and if they let her fight the alpaca, without doubt, she would be defeated.
With how dangerous the alpaca was, they moved to other places and went to the more docile animals such as baby sheep or goats.

"Are you alright, Mayumi-san?" Shishio helped Mayumi to clean up the spit on her face. Even when she was almost in her 30, he could still see how beautiful this woman was. Still, with how busy and lazy she was, she had become slightly chubby, but he felt that it wasn't that bad since it was more comfortable to touch her. However, he knew that she needed to do something about her weight or else it might be dangerous for her.
"Yeah. Thanks, Shishio." Mayumi sighed in relief when Shishio could help to clean up that disgusting spit from her face quickly. "Luckily, I didn't wear thick make-up like Sayaka." If her make-up was thick, she would be in disaster now.
"What do you mean by that? Do you want your face to be spit out by the baby sheep now?" Sayaka lifted a baby sheep toward Mayumi with a gentle smile.
"Take that thing away from me!" Mayumi quickly ran away, with Sayaka chasing behind after her.
"Their relationship is really good," Shishio commented, which caused Hiratsuka, who stood next to Mayumi before, to feel speechless. "By the way, Hiratsuka-sensei." He sat naturally beside her and asked, "Have you been here before?"
Hiratsuka's face reddened when Shishio sat next to her, but she gave him a nod. "Yes, I came here in the past with my family." Still, she let out a depressed sigh when she thought about her family, especially when they often urged her to get married. She was almost in her 30, and there was still no man around her except for her student.
Hiratsuka wanted to smoke, but Shishio grabbed the cigarette from her hand. "Let's stop smoking for today, Sensei."
Hiratsuka's lips twitched, and she said, "Why do you act like my husband?"
"Oh? If I were your husband, I'd be even stricter since I didn't want something to happen to our baby in your womb," Shishio said as he tried to mimic how a husband caressed the stomach of his wife when she got pregnant.
Hiratsuka's face reddened, and she slapped Shishio's hand away. "Don't joke around. I won't marry my own student!"
"So I'm not a student. Is it possible?" Shishio asked curiously.
"Dammit, why do you have fun teasing your teacher?!" Hiratsuka felt that she was being played around by Shishio, which made her feel annoyed since she felt that she was a little girl in front of him. While she didn't mind acting like a baby in front of her man, the one in front of her was her student, not her man!
Hiratsuka was afraid now.
Hiratsuka was afraid that she might cross the line between a student and a teacher, then the two of them... Cough! Cough!
Shishio looked at Hiratsuka for a moment, showing hesitation, and showed the gentlest smile that he had ever shown.
Shishio's reaction caused Hiratsuka to feel dumbfounded, and her heart started to beat faster. 'Does... does he has...?'
Shishio was about to open his mouth, but suddenly...
"Shishio! Let's go watch the duck race!" Chihiro shouted and showed a carefree smile that she wouldn't usually show.
"Yeah, wait a moment." Shishio looked at Hiratsuka and said, "Let's go, Sensei."
"Oh - oh!"
Hiratsuka nodded hurriedly, but she just couldn't think straight and wondered what Shishio wanted to say to her.
---
Everyone watched the duck race in front of them with a solemn expression on their faces.
A group of ducks dashed forward as they swung their bottoms back and forth.
The girls couldn't help but cheer loudly and happily as they supported their favorite duck in the race.
"Come on, Silver Fang! You can do it!"
"Dash forward, Magnum Saber!"
Misaki was the loudest, cheering her "Silver Fang" as loud as she could.
Hiratsuka also joined and cheered for her "Magnum Saber" to win the race. It wasn't that she had fallen so deep in the race, but she just wanted to avert her mind, especially when she just had an ambiguous exchange with Shishio.
Yukinoshita and Ritsu, who were also the quietest, watched the race intently.
Shiina couldn't even take her eyes from the race and clenched her two fists, trying to cheer her favorite duck.
"Shishio-kun, don't forget to take the picture." Yukinoshita didn't forget to remind Shishio.
"Okay, okay, you don't need to worry."
Shishio had taken many pictures of the farm, everyone on Sakurasou, and many things they had seen over their trip. While he took a picture, he decided to accept the reward he got after fondling Misaki's boobs.
<As you have touched Kamiigusa Misaki's breasts, you have received an "Enhanced Liver">
"...."
Shishio wondered whether the reason why he got this reward was that Misaki often stayed all night to draw an anime.
"Yay~~! Silver Fang, awesome!" Misaki cheered happily.
On the other hand, Hiratsuka sighed depressingly since her "Magnum Saber" had been lost.
"Come on! Stop joking around!" Chihiro said with a sigh, wondering why there were so many kids around.
After the duck race, they continued their trip to the strawberry farms.
Besides animals and flowers, this farm also had huge fruit farms that could be harvested every season except for winter.
It was spring, so they happened to meet the harvest time of the strawberry.
Everyone went to the strawberry garden and brought their own box to pick their favorite strawberries.
Shishio also walked around, observing all the strawberries in the garden until he found something interesting.
<strawberry: weight 15 grams, high maturity, harvest time: haven't been harvested, freshness remaining ten days, pesticides: none, grade black>
Shishio might often buy a high-grade ingredient, but he didn't expect that he would meet a black-grade ingredient in this place. He might have explained in the past that there were seven grades of ingredients, and they were divided by colors, and those colors were: white, yellow, green, purple, black, red, and golden.
Shishio didn't hesitate and picked up the strawberry, but then he looked at Roberta, who had been following him. "Roberta, open your mouth."
Roberta tilted her head, but she obediently opened her mouth.
Shishio then fed the strawberry that he had picked to Roberta. "Try it."
Roberta didn't overthink, but when she bit down the strawberry, a juice gushed out from it, and the perfect mixture of sweetness and sourness. Her usual cold expression was broken, and she was in a daze for a moment since she had never tasted such a delicious strawberry.
If Roberta had to describe her emotions, she felt as if she had received an uppercut from the strawberry champion. "...It's delicious, Shishio-sama." Her lascivious lips became even glossier as the juice from the strawberry covered them.
"That's good." Shishio nodded with a smile and then checked whether he could find another high-quality strawberry. His eyes were moving like a high-resolution camera, trying to find the best ingredients. Unfortunately, the best that he could find was a purple-grade ingredient. While it wasn't bad, there was a grade different from the one that Roberta ate.
"Um... Shishio-sama, is there more?" Roberta asked meekly.
"Sorry, that might be the only one in this place," Shishio said regretfully.
"What?" Roberta was surprised then asked, "Then why did you give that to me?" If she knew that strawberry was so special, she wouldn't eat it and would give it to Shishio.
"While that might be the best strawberry in this place, that thing is nothing compared to how important you're in my heart."
Shishio held Roberta's cold and slender hand tenderly, showing that strawberry was nothing compared to the wonderful woman in front of him. He could get many black, red, or even golden grade ingredients in the future, but this special woman was the only one in the world.
"Shi - Shishio-sama..." Roberta's cold expression became so shy.
Shishio looked at Roberta for a moment, then looked around before he pulled her to the ground, hiding from everyone on the strawberry field.
"Shishio-sama?" Roberta was confused at Shishio's sudden action.
"Also, if I want to taste that strawberry." Shishio then kissed Roberta's lips without hesitation and licked her lips and tongue greedily.
"......."
Roberta was dumbfounded, and before she could react, their lips parted.
"Delicious." Shishio licked his lips.
"........" Roberta.
"Wait, let me taste it again." Shishio kissed Roberta's lips again.
"......." Roberta.
After he was satisfied, he stood up and used his eyes that could match the highest resolution camera to find the green and the purple grade strawberries. "Come on! Help me get more, Roberta. There might not be one that was as delicious as the one that you ate, but there is a lot which isn't bad in this place."
Roberta stared at Shishio's back for a moment before she licked her lips with a smile and followed him.
"Yes, Shishio-sama."
