Chapter 3

The Easygoing Junior

My junior, Ren, is the kind of guy who looks like a host with his dyed golden hair, even though he’s working as a salaryman. He has slightly slanted eyes and decent facial features, making him somewhat good-looking. But he’s a smooth talker, and I’ve had to cover for him more than once.

“Good morning, Chief! Oh, Hino-chan, good morning!” Ren called out to our boss and Hino…

“Oh right, I need to prepare the report for the department head…”

“Oh no, I forgot to contact the outsourcing partner!”

Our boss returned to his seat, and Hino picked up the receiver even before the start of work.

“You guys are so cold! Don’t you think so too, senpai?”

“Is that so?”

“Haha! Senpai is so dense.”

I don’t think I’m that dense, but… There’s no point in arguing with Ren; he’s just noisy, so I kept my mouth shut.

After a while, other employees started arriving at the department one by one and took their seats. As the signal for the start of work, the morning assembly began.

“This month, we aim to secure three contracts per person!”

“Ooooh!”

Our chief announced the goal for this month, and we raised our hands enthusiastically. After conveying only the necessary information, the chief quickly ended the assembly.

While both Hino and our boss treat me normally, Ren seems to receive a cold response from Hino. But when Ren looked at my face, he smirked.

“Oh well, is it okay for the chief to ignore me like that? I’m the top salesperson, you know?”

“That’s because Ren is constantly sexually harassing female employees. They’re probably wary of you.”

“Well, that’s not entirely true. There are plenty of girls who want me to touch them.”

He’s quite confident, and I know for a fact that there are indeed girls who feel that way. Once I accidentally witnessed Ren and a female employee from the HR department engaging in a passionate kiss in the tea room.

“I get that you’re amazing, but you haven’t done any sketchy sales activities, right?”

If he were involved in shady activities like offering sexual favors or engaging in “mama business” with lonely housewives, it would be seriously problematic.

Ignoring my concerns, Ren proudly boasted of his achievements and snickered.

“Oh, senpai, are you jealous? It’s so lame for a guy to be envious. Well, if you want, I can teach you a thing or two about sales.”

If I were to say something like that, Ren would probably think I’m being condescending, so I didn’t mention that I was the one who introduced him to important clients and taught him everything from scratch, even though he couldn’t achieve the sales targets with normal sales activities.

“If I can’t achieve my sales targets, I might ask for your help.”

“What’s with that condescending tone? Please, Ren-sama, help me, will you?”

“You…”

Ren looked down on me, and I couldn’t help but feel irritated by his insolent attitude. I was about to step forward and grab his collar, but I held back, thinking of Miku.

“Haha, just kidding. Senpai, you always get worked up so easily. It’s amusing.”

Ren patted my shoulder and burst into laughter, clutching his stomach. Seeing my expression filled with anger, Ren quickly changed his attitude.

“Is that a joke?”

At least Ren’s eyes were serious.

“Oops, sorry. Unlike you, I’m not free, so I’m going out for a field visit!”

I’m not free either…

Ren picked up his jacket, held his suitcase, and called out to the section chief’s seat.

“Section chief! Can I go home directly today?”

“Do as you please! But make sure you meet your quota.”

“Yes, sir!”

Without paying attention to the section chief’s expressionless face, Ren lightly tapped my shoulder and teased me.

“Well then, senpai, do your best for Miku-chan too!”

“I don’t need you to tell me that. I’m working for Miku’s sake, after all.”

“Sigh, you two are so lovey-dovey.”

After making a sarcastic remark, Ren slammed the door shut and left the section. I couldn’t help but sigh, wondering how things had ended up like this.

When Ren went out for sales, Himeno was delighted that the annoyance had disappeared. She secretly showed me her smartphone.

“Senpai, do you know about this?”

“Hmm? What is it?”

“I’ll send it to you, so please turn off the sound.”

Himeno used the smartphone’s drop function to send a video to my phone.

What the!?

It showed a man and a woman around our age engaging in intimate activities on a bed. Although the audio was muted, Himeno showed it to me like a surprise, covering her mouth with her hand and giggling.

If I were to do something like this to Himeno or any female employee, I would be accused of sexual harassment.

Young girls these days are shameless!

If I receive videos like this, I might misunderstand.

Well, it’s not like Himeno, a young and cute girl, has any feelings for me. Even if she does something suggestive and I misunderstand, she would surely look down on me and say, “Senpai, what are you misunderstanding? Did you get excited because I’m cute?” It’s clear that I have no such intentions.

I feel embarrassed, but Himeno starts explaining the reason for sending the video with a serious expression.

“Senpai, I surprised you, didn’t I? Actually, this is a video of a married couple’s sex livestream.”

“No way!?”

I struggled to understand and rested my chin on my hand. After thinking for a moment, I said to Himeno.

“Well, that’s like being an exhibitionist, isn’t it?”

“But if you can make 3 billion yen just by cuddling like that, I might do it too…”

“3 billion!? Wait, so you earned that much just by live streaming?”

“It seems so. It exceeds a salaryman’s lifetime earnings, right?”

“Well, it’s not just one person, it’s two…”

Even so, it must be difficult to make 3 billion in today’s saturated market for fallen idol actresses. Besides, it’s a dream-like story for an amateur to earn 3 billion.

Himeno, who had been calm despite the erotic video, suddenly started fidgeting and rubbing her index fingers together.

Seems like she’s having trouble finding the right words. Thinking that she might find it difficult to speak up, I glanced away from Himeno and looked at the wall clock in the section. It was about to turn 10 o’clock.

“Uh, um… Senpai… If… if my girlfriend were cheating on me… would you… um, do something erotic with me…?”

Ah, it’s already that time!

“Himeno, that was quite an interesting story. Well, if anything, it’s better to discuss such matters between female employees.”

I picked up my jacket that was hanging on the chair and left for my field visit.

“Ah, senpai… The conversation isn’t over yet…”

Unless I get fired and burdened with debt, I can’t possibly expose a video of me having sex with Miku to the public.
