When I, a streamer with some more than 10 registered subscribers, announced my retirement with a face-reveal; as all my viewers were the Madonnas of the school, I ended up losing my current place at school all in all. - 03_ Image Change

“Onii-san, you’re up.”

“Ah, thank you very much.”

Looking at the mirror in front of me, I involuntarily fell silent.

Is this really me?

Who is this? Who the f*** is this guy?

I haven’t seen such a clear view since I was in my childhood.

Right now, the only people here are the strong-popular looking hairdresser and me.

“Umm, hair stylist-san.”

“Did it turn out bad?”

“No, this is, I think it’s really out of the world though, but it’s just, is this really me?”

“Onii-san already had good and original base-style to you, so from my point of view, the result came out to be pretty satisfactory and good overall.”

So, this appears to be really me.

He had made my hair into a two-block haircut on the side, and cut my bangs in a nice style with that.

So, I will be going to school tomorrow with this look. But won’t people even know who I am in the first place.

Ah but, since not many people recognize me, they may not even be interested in me in the first place after all.

When I think it in that way, somehow I feel like a burden going down my shoulders.

“How much is the charge for this?”

“Nope, it’s fine without charge.”

“No, no, no, you can’t do that. After all, you’ve done such a good job for me.”

“It’s just because, since Onii-san’s hair was perfect to begin with, I personally don’t want to charge you.”

“Th, then, please let me thank you with something else.”

“If you want to thank me, I would be happy to have you back here again for a cut.”

“I’d happily do that!”

After saying that, I left the salon.

Iyaaa, that hair-stylist-san is a much nicer person than he appears to be.

Now I will instead be a regular customer for him in the future.

I can’t believe he changed me into something like this.

Even though I can’t say I look cool even as a compliment myself, but I do feel so much better than what I was up until now.

All right, let’s go home and ask my mom what she thinks about this cut.

“I’m back~.”

Well, she must not be home from work yet, so let’s ask my younger sister.

“Welcome home, Onii-chan!?”

“Nn? What’s wrong. Why are you making that weird face?”

“Don’t call my face weird!”

This is my younger sister, Uminagi Akane.

Unlike me, she is a beautiful JK girl who has inherited the DNA of her beautiful father and mother in complete sense.

Apparently, she is even popular and beyond popular among the first-year students.

She is indeed the daughter of my father and mother.

Compared to her, I am …… OHOHO.

I wish I had their DNA as well, but unfortunately, I can’t do anything about it. And in fact, I’m not that popular to begin with.

I was even an unknown streamer after all.

“O—Onii-chan. But still, what’s happened to your hair ……”

“Ah, I just came back from a beauty parlor.”

“I can understand you even if you don’t say it aloud … it’s just … so c—cool.”

“Nn?”

“No, —nothing.”

“Is that so? Well, it’s fine regardless. I will be going back to my room, so you are free to do anything you want Akane. Also, thank you for watching over the house for me.”

“Y–You’re welcome.”

As I said that and was about to go up to the second floor when ….

“Hey, wait a minute, Onii-chan.”

“Nn? What’s wrong. Are you feeling hungry?”

“No! That’s not what I meant. What I want to say is…—–”

Akane takes a deep breath.

I wonder if there is anything to be nervous about in front of your big brother.

“Do you know anything about the guy named Hiroto, the streamer who retired this morning?”
