212: A Regrettable Medical Error
When Rintaro regained consciousness, he saw a familiar ceiling.
However, there was one major difference from the usual one. There was a large hole about three meters in diameter.
Lying in his soft king-sized bed, Rintaro vaguely recalled his memories.
「I… made pancakes with Samecchi… and then… what did I do again…?」
Having been hit by the lightning-like flash to his groin, Rintaro suffered temporary memory loss. When the human body receives damage far beyond its capacity, even the energy that should have been diverted to the brain will be used up on recovery.
Rintaro, who vaguely recalled what had happened, felt a strange sensation between his legs.
There was no particularly noticeable pain, but it felt a bit cold. There was no feeling, as if there’s nothing there.
「Co- Coul- Could it be, I actually was…… Ca- Ca- Ca- Castrated……!?」
Rintaro hastily pulled the blanket off.
And there he found――
――The lower half of his body was tightly wrapped in a bandage cast, like a diaper.
No, saying it was tightly wrapped is an understatement.
It was so tightly packed that it looks like a giant bowling ball ghost. Fortunately, his “thing” still seems to be hanging, but it is not known how deep it was buried beneath the surface.
Rather than saying that it’s a solid lower body, it would be more accurate to say that a torso and legs are growing out of a large sphere. He looked almost like an anthropomorphized duck.
「What the heck is thiiiiiiis?!」
A loud crash echoed from the bathroom, perhaps startled by the cry of Rintaro’s soul. After a while, Minato quietly opened the bathroom door and peeked in, looking like she was about to burst into tears.
As soon as Minato met Rintaro’s eyes, her face turned red like a burning flame and she forced a smile on her curvy lips.
「Go- Go- Goo- Good morning Rintaro……-san」
「Good morning… What’s wrong, Minato? Why are you acting like a stranger…?」
Looking up, Minato was holding a metal tray like the ones used in surgery. Placed on top of it were a variety of medical supplies, such as bandages, scissors, disinfectant, and ointment.
It can be deduced from this that it was Minato-sensei who treated Rintaro, who had fainted after his groin was hit hard, and who had tightly wrapped his lower body in a cast. Minato kept her distance from Rintaro, her eyes darting from side to side.
「I- I- I- I didn’t mean any harm. I had no choice but to, you know, just a little as a treatment. I just squeezed it a little, no, considering the shape, that was the most effective way to do it. I just lightly touched it. No, more than touching it, it was more like stroking it.」
She must have just been washing her hands. There was still a little ointment left on Minato’s fingertips, which were as smooth and slender as silk.
Applying ointment to an affected area is undoubtedly a proper medical procedure. Whether the affected area is point C on the midline, or whether a tall, beautiful woman with dark hair in a white coat applies the ointment with her bare hands, it is an extremely healthy and appropriate medical procedure, and there was no ulterior motive whatsoever.
「I see. I guess it can’t be helped if it’s for treatment. It’s fine, thank you Minato. Thank you.」
「It’s okay. As long as you understand……」
A single tear rolled down Rintaro’s cheek, as he regretted having lost consciousness. Please don’t misunderstand; these were tears of regret for having missed an opportunity to spread knowledge in the medical field.
Just as Rintaro was trying to somehow summon up an experience he had experienced from the depths of his memory, the door to the room opened without a knock. Samecchi and Kirika were the only two people who entered and exited the room without knocking, acting as if they owned the place.
「Muaan, can’t see what’s in front, ssu」
「It’s because you’re being greedy and trying to have the same amount as me. …Oh? Are you awake? Good morning, Senpai.」
「Anikii?」
Samecchi’s face lit up and some of the mountain of luggage she was carrying spilled out. It rolled to Rintaro’s side, drawing a white line on the carpet.
「What is this?」
「Bandage, ssu.」
「Well, that’s obvious just by looking at it, but what’s with the amount? Are you forming a mummy soccer team or something?」
「Samecchi’s apology, ssu」
Samecchi and Kirika placed the bandages they were holding in their arms on the bed. A large pile of bandages was created.
Rintaro tried to say something, but he couldn’t comprehend the situation and no words came out. Kirika, who was unusually meek, was the first to speak.
「I’m sorry, Senpai. I was serious about using the whip…! Even though it was what you wanted, it was my first time and I didn’t know how to handle it.」
「It’s not what I want.」
「I, Mayuzumi Kirika. In order to clear my name, I have come to the conclusion that I should take care of you in the hope that you will recover as soon as possible.」
「Samecchi will help out too! Clearing her name!」
Rintaro himself thought that the treatment Minato give was rather rough. It seemed that it was these two who had wrapped up the lower half of Rintaro’s body so tightly.
But are they planning to wrap even more bandages around him? For a moment, Rintaro imagined himself as a human snowman and shook his head.
「Samecchi, it’s true that you are also at fault this time. Mayuzumi, I understand your sincerity. You two don’t need to worry about this any more.」
「Anikiiiiii!」
「Senpai……!」
Although he suffered a terrible experience, it was undoubtedly Rintaro himself who caused it by hiding the erotic books. And it is also fact that Rintaro tried to frame Kirika for the crime of hiding the erotic books.
Quietly putting his own affair aside, Rintaro sighed in relief, as if the matter was now closed. He then gently placed his hands on the shoulders of his two subordinates, who were overcome with emotion at having been forgiven.
He was like a veteran detective showing compassion to a reformed criminal at the end of a detective drama. Although it’s hard to look cool when your lower body is enclosed in a sphere.
「Rintaro, I’ve heard the details from the two. Well… It was really tough huh.」
「Ah, Minato. Thank you. I’m glad you were here. But there’s one thing I want to ask you.」
「Wh- Wh- Wh- What is it? I don’t know much about it, but the statistics say it’s above average.」
「No, that doesn’t matter. It’s not that it doesn’t matter though.」
Rintaro patted the huge cast that was protecting his lower body.
「……This, how am I supposed to go to the toilet?」
「「「Ah.」」」
All three of them spoke at the same time. They looked at each other.
「……Eh?」
Rintaro turned his attention back to his lower body. The plaster cast, as hard as an iron ball, covered his thighs all the way down to his belly button, like a cursed chastity belt.
「I told you that it would harden after inserting the catheter…!」
「Sorry, senpai. I was so focused on getting it done quickly.」
「Aniki, what does catheter mean?」
「No, hey. What are we going to do? Hey, what are we going to do with this? Hey.」
It took half a day before Rintaro’s lower body was freed again.
