Part 3: The Daily Life of a Murderer

「So this, Sophia-san's room……」

Naoto muttered exclaiming as Sophia, who had regained her composure, and showed her to her room.

 There was nothing in the room.

 No, to be more precise, there was a bed, a futon, and a desk. Also, there is a refrigerator and computer.

 In the corner of the room, there is a pipe hanger on which the rider's coat hangs.

 But there was nothing else but a cardboard box on the floor.

 The floor was still wooden, and there was no carpet on the floor.

 There were none of the things women would normally have, and the room was nothing more than a gloomy landscape. ......

「So, Sophia-san lives here huh...」

「Yes」

「Are you comfortable with this? What will you do when you have extra time?」

「No discomfort. In my spare time, I use it to maintain weapons, train, and learn Japanese. Thanks to this, my Japanese has improved to a reasonable level.」

 In other words, there is no life other than completing missions...

「How about food? It looks like there's a kitchen here...... but there doesn't seem to be any dishes or utensils except a fridge on the floor. Maybe, you only eat out?」

 Sophia pointed to the cardboard box on the wall. Naoto saw what was inside the box... and was shocked.

「There are nutritionally complete food powders like mountains! No way, you eat three times a day with this……!?」

 A complete nutritional diet is one that contains all the nutrients a person needs to maintain good health. It is used for diet and strength training. In powder form, dissolved in water and drunk.

「In order to increase the success rate of the mission, I must maintain a body shape that will bring out the most of my physical potential. To me, this is more than enough food.」

 I thought she was a professional assassin. Too frivolous.

「But one day, when I was taking out the trash, an old lady in my neighborhood warned me about it. She says its bad for my health to eat like this all the time. She always seems to care about the contents of the trash I take out.」

「Well, if you were an old man, the existence of such food would be beyond your imagination...」

「It was a defining moment. I thought it was my comrade who came to investigate my personal affairs, who was pretending to be a nice old lady. Reflexively, I grabbed the knife in my pocket. I want to praise myself for enduring it with sheer willpower.」

「I really want to compliment him! good, Sophia-san！」

「I monitored him for a week just to be sure, but she also eats fried food every day. Much healthier than my diet.」

「It's up to the individual! Also, many Japanese grandparents like fried food because they couldn't eat it when they were young, so don't look that way.!」

 It's a real mystery why grandparents who love fried foods live longer than their grandparents who don't.

「Well, then, at least Sophia-and doesn't lack anything in her diet.」

「As a logical consequence, no.」

「Why... Oh, yes. Did you talk about taking out the trash before?」

「Yes For a short time, there's no problem with people guessing what's in your life that way. But if for a long period of time, it can be a source of trouble. I also don't know how much restraint I can do.」

 Sophia's hands slowly clenched into fists...

「At this rate, I'm going to make a big mistake someday, somewhere. If it happens, I won't be able to complete my mission, which is to live as a commoner until the organization is rebuilt」

(Indeed, in that case, it might be impossible for Sophia to live as a civilian without the help of others : ......)

 Even an old woman who took care of him would automatically be on the path of war.

 Even if the assassin organization shut down for the day and his mind agreed to it, his body would not adapt immediately.

(You have to get used to it gradually. ......)

「Okay, how about this? How about we postpone living together at my house, and instead, you can get used to me as a stranger first?」

「Getting used to Naoto……？」

「Yes. In particular, every day after middle school, I would bring dinner to Sophia-san's house. We will eat together, Then I'll be home at night. This way, Sophia-san can get used to me in this house, which is safer than mine, right? If we have dinner together, there is no fear of the neighbors about worrying about the garbage being thrown away. I will also prepare breakfast for you.」

「……Uuu！」

Expressionless, Sophia reflected shock, approval, and joy in her eyes.

「So, keep doing this, and when Sophia-san gets used to me, I'll make you come to my house again.」

「As a logical consequence, it's very good……！」

「Okay. That's done it for today. I'll go home and cook dinner, and then I'll come back here. Sophia-san, is there anything you want to eat?」

「What do you want to eat...? That was the first question asked of me… I never thought about it……」

Naoto tilted his head as if he was hearing a foreign language

「What do I want to eat?...... If I can wish, I want to eat what Naoto likes. I want to know many of Naoto's favorite things. It's important for both of us in the future.」

「……Okay」

 I knew Sophia was speaking logically. But there seems to be an honest desire there to get to know the person he will be spending his time with.
