I Got Reincarnated as the Scummy Dude Who Sends NTR Video Letters to Otaku Guys in Erotic Manga, But When I Tried to Steal His Girlfriend, I Accidentally Hooked Up with Her Twin Sister Instead - Chapter 20

Chapter 20: Otaku-kun Shows Up at My House

[Side: Otaku Takuya]

—Golden Week, day five.

I finally couldn’t take it anymore, so I went over to Aoi’s place and told her everything about Nedori-kun.

How I hadn’t been able to reach him since before Golden Week started. How he was probably in a situation where he couldn’t use his phone. How I’d run into him and Yui at Nedori-kun’s apartment building.

After hearing all that, Aoi came to one clear conclusion.

“Nedori-kun is… probably being held captive by Yui.”

“Captive?!?!”

That hit me like a truck.

Because those two are my best friend and my childhood friend.

The idea of them being involved in something like captivity just felt way too unreal.

But once she said it… it kinda clicked.

Nedori-kun can’t touch his phone because he’s being held captive.

Yui’s the one holding him captive, so she’s been going back and forth to his apartment.

That shopping bag she was carrying? Probably because she’s basically living there while keeping him locked up in the room.

“But… is something like that even possible for real?”

“Yui’s been kinda running away from home right before Golden Week started. She told her mom she was staying at a friend’s place, but Yui doesn’t have any close friends, so that’s definitely a lie. She’s 100% run away from home.”

“Yeah, that lines up. But… captivity? Is that even allowed?”

“Of course it’s not allowed! Ugh, that’s exactly why I warned her to be careful around Yui.”

Aoi let out an exasperated sigh.

“Warned her?”

“That’s my business. Takuya! Just take me to Nedori-kun’s place already.”

“Huh? Right now?”

“Obviously right now! Let’s go! I gotta give Yui a serious talking-to!”

Looks like Aoi was dead set on making Yui stop the whole captivity thing.

I wanted to go rescue Nedori-kun too, more than anything, but when the other side is Yui… we had to be on guard.

“Should I bring something along just in case?”

“Yeah! Let’s take a stun gun for self-defense!”

“Stun gun?! Why do you even have one of those at home?!”

“For self-defense, duh!”

Is the Futaba household really that intense?

I thought it, but asking felt scary, so I kept my mouth shut.

“And also… this!”

“What’s that?”

“A bulletproof vest!”

“Bulletproof vest?! Why the hell do you have—”

“Just put it on quick! It’s insurance in case we get stabbed.”

“Huh?! I’m gonna get stabbed?!”

Everything was shocking, but it was all for saving Nedori-kun.

With my legs literally shaking, I headed off to the battlefield anyway.

※

Otaku-kun and Aoi just rang the doorbell at my place.

There was no way Yui wasn’t gonna freak out over something this insane.

“Big sister… and Otaku…”

Yui muttered that under her breath, then her eyes drifted over to the kitchen knife she’d just used to cut the green onions.

“Yui? Don’t do anything rash, okay? Catching me is fine, but if you get caught, that’s no good. Then we’d both be screwed, right?”

I was so panicked I barely knew what I was even saying, but my desperate pleading seemed to work—she didn’t grab the knife.

Right as that was happening, the doorbell went *ding-dong* again. The two of them were still clearly visible on the monitor.

Aoi had her face right up to the camera, so her right eye was filling the whole screen in extreme close-up.

“Can you open up? If you don’t, things are gonna get messy.”

“Aren’t you the one making things messy, Aoi?”

“Takuya, shut up for a sec! I’m trying to talk her down right now.”

Their back-and-forth was coming through the intercom loud and clear.

Yui glanced back at the knife again.

“I’m gonna go sharpen the knife real quick.”

“Wait wait wait!”

“If I don’t sharpen it, I can’t calm down. I really should’ve gagged him first.”

“Gagged who?!”

“Otaku.”

“Otaku-kun?!”

No way. Gagging him is way too far.

Sweat was literally pouring down my forehead as I scrambled for words to convince her.

Then, in the middle of that—

“Lucky! Takuya, let’s go!”

“Huh? We can just go in?”

“Yeah yeah! Come on!”

Looks like the auto-lock got opened somehow. Probably someone just came out of the entrance.

The two of them slipped inside during that moment. Now it was only a matter of time before they reached the door.

“This is really bad. Big sister’s stubborn like a cockroach—if she camps out in front of the door, we’re in serious trouble. We won’t be able to leave the house for a while.”

“No no no, we can’t just hole up here forever!”

“If we hold out till school starts again, we’ll be fine. Good thing you’re truant.”

“I’m not truant!”

By then they must’ve already reached the door.

“Yui! I know you’re in there! Open up already!”

Along with Aoi’s voice came loud banging on the door. We were in a total do-or-die spot.

But opening the door right now was impossible.

I mean, I’m buck naked with a chain around my ankle. No way in hell could I let anyone see me like this.

“Yui, please undo the restraints for a sec. And lemme put some clothes on.”

“No way. You might run off the second I do.”

“I won’t run. I’m the type who doesn’t mind whatever my favorite girl does to me, y’know? Getting held captive isn’t gonna make me bolt.”

“Even so, I’m anxious! Without the chain, what if you escape? I’m so anxious, so anxious…”

“Yui! Don’t think you can keep running from this forever! You’ve never once escaped from big sister, right? Just give up and come out already!”

Aoi’s scary words echoed through.

It was way heavier than her usual bright classroom vibe—kinda intense.

Is she a siscon or something? Well, the two of them are pretty similar when it comes to being heavy like that.

…Not like I had time to think about other people.

“Please, just take the restraints off. Otherwise my dignity’s gonna—”

“Okay. Then let’s do this.”

With that, Yui threw a blanket over me. While I was still buck naked and chained up.

Basically, she was just hiding me under the blanket—but come on, that was way too sloppy.

One yank and the whole thing would be exposed.

“At least lemme wear actual underwear instead of the diaper!”

“………………………………”

“Say something!”

Yui awkwardly looked away, then pulled some props out of a drawer and started fiddling with me here and there.

After covering up everything that absolutely couldn’t be seen, she headed toward the entrance looking super unmotivated.

“Yui! Open the door! Open it!”

The banging on the door was still going strong at the entrance. If we ignored it much longer, it’d definitely turn into a neighbor complaint.

“Yui! Open up!”

“Big sister, I’m opening it so just shut up for a sec!”

Yui yelled back in casual speech, then made a blatantly annoyed face as she unlocked the door.

The second she did, a crazy amount of force came from outside and the door flew open.

And what jumped into my view was—

“Otaku-kun!”

“Nedori-kun!”

My best friend’s face.

The moment our eyes met, Otaku-kun’s expression lit up with happiness for a split second—then it instantly switched to worry.

Makes sense. Right now I’m lying on the bed completely covered by a blanket.

They’d slapped a cooling patch on my forehead for show, so from far away I probably just looked like a sick person.

“You okay?! Do you have a fever or something?”

“*cough cough cough*… I’m fine.”

I felt bad, but I kept up the sick act anyway.

What else could I do? If they pulled the blanket off, I’d be a total pervert in nothing but a diaper. Had to play the sick role all the way.

“Nedori-kun, hi! How you feeling?”

“Big sister, don’t just barge in.”

Aoi forced her way inside, kicked off her shoes, and greeted me anyway.

She had a huge smile, but her eyes looked kinda sharp somehow, and

“Whoa? Long time no see since school.”

My heart was pounding like crazy, but I tried to play it cool. Gotta be careful not to get found out.

“You caught a cold? You okay?”

“Y-yeah. It’s already getting better, so don’t worry. But I might still be contagious, so maybe don’t come past the entrance.”

“It’s fine. I’ll wash my hands and gargle properly.”

“Whoa?”

“Big sister!”

Aoi ignored our protests and marched straight into the living room.

Otaku-kun trailed behind her looking super apologetic.

“Big sister! That’s enough, right? Let’s just go home—”

“Come on, come on, it’s not like it’ll cost anything. Wait… huh? What’s this?”

Yui stepped right between me and Aoi, spreading her arms wide to block the way.

But Aoi spotted something through the gap and asked in a low voice.

It was something that absolutely shouldn’t exist in a normal household. Something that flat-out wasn’t allowed to be there.

“Hey… what’s with this whip?”

The way Aoi looked at it was the same disgusted stare she’d give trash.
