Chapter 80: Bad News
Giving some screen time for the harem
*********
Mei was looking at the news, showing a sudden disappearance of people. The reporters confused themselves, also the curiosity behind those question. For people to wonder on, to build on theories on why people are going missing. But, also murder rates have spiked.
[Here at the scene, two dead here, as the cops behind me are doing their best to figure out what happened in this area, this was a murder scene as the lead investigator told us]
The man reporting, many watching holding their breaths, those who knew of the victims cried.
"That's quite weird, Kaoruko"
"Want to investigate something like that?"
Kaoruko hummed in contemplation, Mei shook her head.
"We'll leave it like that"
"Why not?"
Mei turned to hear the voice coming from Huijin leaning on the couch.
"It's a human cycle, it's part of life...are we heroes?"
Huijin was quite, Kaoruko thought about it.
(We have powers, though I don't want to be keep saving people or do the most mundane things in helping them, when a cop can do it)
Dylan wouldn't demolish that idea to act like heroes, just do it discretely since, they're no heroes in this world. No source of power, magic or the such.
Kaoruko thought about it more, then another voice came over breaking that thinking.
"Could be interesting, I'm all in solving some murder case for a bit of fun, besides it's going to be some time before our husband lets us do some fighting in another world"
Akira stretched her arms, she had a lazy smile.
"Not going to lie, I agree with her"
Kaoruko nodded at that, Huijin eyes showed curiosity about the situation. It was abnormal the high rate of murders.
"Alright, we can do some digging for fun"
Mei gave in as they planned to what their next move was.

"Has anyone seen Cherry?"
"Ichi, I haven't seen no cherry, Ichi hungry?"
The young man asked a question about one of the five girls he is taken care of, in his small apartment. Beautiful girls, whom came from the chocolates, and everytime he kisses one of them. They multiply into more, as if contagious but not in a way that affects his health.
"I'm not hungry Eliza, but where is Cherry?"
Ichi the young man wanted to know, he hasn't bought them phones because being tight on money. It was hard providing for 4 girls.
"I haven't seen Cherry, Ichi"
Eliza the main girl he kissed that produce 3 more beauties. She had no clue, so he asked the others.
"Autumn?"
"Me no see her!"
She giggled, finding it intriguing to what she was eating.
"Chrys?"
"Nope! Cherry gone!"
She smiled sweetly, as she found it interesting to the TV.
"I'll go find her"
He was feeling nervous, anxious seeped in because she was alone. In a world that they don't know, they could be taken advantage of. But, the most worrisome part was, that someone might trick them into kissing them.
Ichi was worried about that problem of multiplying more people. He was young and had no girlfriend, he wished to kiss them, love them. But, who knows what else might happen.
Not knowing that Ichi, denying them a kiss. A simple act of affection something which they were slowly learning more about love. Especially Cherry, she who is smarter and learned quickly than the rest. Wants to learn about those emotions, something that humans have.
She and the rest know that they're not human, mysterious beings. They don't even know what their purpose is. But, hope that Ichi can help them with that.
What type of chaos did Ichi unleashed having these girls come to life.

"This seems way more than just some simple murder"
"You feel it right Kaoruko?.....Something unhuman"
Akira crouched, looking at the scene of two men not to recently just dead. Ecstasy could be seen from their face and eyes. Only for their necks to be twisted, or a hole punched through them.
"I feel it too, traces of what was left behind"
Kaoruko and Akira left the scene.
***************
"You, state your name, or you'll die if you take one step further"
Dylan had someone pointing a blade at him, from behind a beautiful woman with blue long hair stood their. Her cold eyes, her hand on the hilt of the blade read to slash his head clean off his shoulders.
"Name? The name's Dylan"
