When My Doorbell Rang at 5am, I Got a Wife - Chapter 29: When That Topic Comes Up, It's a Little Painful for Me Too...

Chapter 29: When That Topic Comes Up, It’s a Little Painful for Me Too…

“Hey, hey!?! I can’t just let you in like that. That’s trespassing!”

Entering someone’s home without permission is a crime defined by the Criminal Code.

The golden-haired maid smiled sweetly and said,

“Oh, then let me ask you this. Is it okay to secretly live with a girl in a one-person rental without the landlord’s consent?”

I was flustered and stuttered,

“Wh-wh-wh-why that?! Wh-who are you—?!”

I was pointed out for a very painful thing, that I was secretly living with Erika without the landlord’s knowledge.

This was because it was considered a legitimate reason for eviction.

This room was a one-person rental property, so allowing someone else to live there long-term was a complete breach of contract.

(No, now it doesn’t matter if I’ve broken the contract! What’s more important is that this golden-haired maid knows about Erika’s existence!)

I couldn’t help but feel a bad premonition, considering that this person knew about Erika, who had only arrived in this world yesterday, in addition to knowing about me.

And, to make matters worse,

“Tooru, are you still talking to this scoundrel?”

Erika was coming to the door, frustrated that I was still talking at the entrance.

In other words, the situation so far can be summarized as follows.

I was only investigated because I was hiding the otherworldly Erika, and it was just a side effect.

The true purpose of this golden-haired maid was not me, but Erika, who came from another world.

Are they trying to kidnap the otherworldly Erika?!

Are they going to use Erika as a research subject like a lab rat?!

(Damn it! Erika has no one to rely on in this world but me. So I have to protect Erika! Who else will protect Erika if I don’t?! Oooohhhhhh!!!)

“Erika, don’t come this way! Run away now!”

“Huh?”

As I moved my body to try to slip past me, I continued to block the golden-haired maid by spreading my arms wide and sliding my body.

“I’ll explain later! I told you yesterday, there’s an emergency staircase on the balcony for fires and other emergencies, so get away from here now! You’ll be kidnapped if you stay here!”

I desperately guarded against the intrusion and called out to Erika, who was still in the room, over my shoulder.

“I think there’s a misunderstanding, but my purpose is…”

However, what happened was incredible!

I was sleep-deprived from spending too much time last night engaging in otherworldly exchanges with Erika, and I was so groggy from shouting right after waking up.

For a moment, I felt a momentary loss of consciousness and stumbled, and then I lost my balance and fell—!

“Kyaahh!?”

“Uwaahh!?”

*Thud*, *Thud-thud-thud!*

And I fell at the entrance, entangled with the golden-haired maid.

“Ah… ♡ Mm… ♡ Hmm… ♡ Ah…”

*Fuyon.*

*Fuyofuyon.*

Then, for some reason, I felt an extraordinarily soft sensation in my hand.
