Chapter 215 Vice Director’s Office After A Long Time
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
With Vice Director Yui’s cooperation, the surgery on Sentarou was completed without issue.
The method Haruto had devised was simple: stabilize the condition using ability-based treatment, then finish with a proper surgical procedure.
They decided to put that into practice for Sentarou’s case—and everything went smoothly.
”Simple procedures like that are doable,” Yui said, scanning the post-op report. “Still… doesn’t it seem strange, doing orthopedic work here?”
”That’s true,” Haruto replied, pressing a hand to his temple. “Even if it was necessary, I should’ve considered the optics a bit more. Sorry.”
Legally, a doctor is allowed to operate outside their specialty.
But at Miyoshi Hospital—focused only on internal medicine and pediatrics—doing orthopedic surgery would naturally attract attention.
And since surgery required several staff, it wasn’t something the family alone could handle.
There was always the risk of someone talking… and rumors spreading.
”Mebae-chan’s on her way, right?” Yui asked, placing the file aside. “Let’s wait until she gets here.”
”I’ll do that,” Haruto replied with a nod.
”Still… having a specialist in both surgery and plastic surgery coming to this place—it’s pretty unexpected.”
”Is something bothering you?” he asked.
”Not exactly,” she said, tilting her head slightly. “I’m just wondering if we’ll have everything prepared… say, four years from now.”
”Then we’ll just have to start doing more surgeries,” Haruto said. “Secure funding however we can.”
”It’s not only about money,” Yui muttered. “For a private hospital like this, getting application approval is a huge hurdle.”
”It’s those bureaucrats again,” Haruto sighed. “Only ever focused on funding.”
”My husband’s not the type to push back either,” she added, smiling bitterly. “Lately, he’s been pressured into buying all sorts of unnecessary equipment.”
For pharmaceutical companies and medical device makers, getting their products chosen by hospitals could mean the difference between success or collapse.
And the bureaucrats who held approval authority? They knew that very well.
To expand Miyoshi Hospital into surgery, plastic surgery, and obstetrics and gynecology, they’d need to apply.
And for that, they’d need to purchase specialized devices from approved manufacturers.
Naturally, those companies would funnel money toward the bureaucrats, hoping to get their products prioritized…
And in return, the officials would lean on the hospital to buy their “recommended” devices—holding approval just out of reach.
”I guess I’ll have to become the Minister of Health, Labour, and Welfare,” Haruto joked.
Yui smiled. “Then I expect preferential treatment.”
”Well… I might ask for something from both you and Akane.”
”What a wicked minister,” she said, her eyes narrowing playfully.
Still seated together in the Vice Director’s office, Yui suddenly stood and stepped over to him.
Without hesitation, she lowered herself onto his lap, straddling him with quiet grace.
Her voice was soft as she leaned in. “Seduction through office visits… you brought this on yourself.”
Haruto gave a dry chuckle. “You’re the one who started it.”
Yui leaned closer, her presence unmistakable against him.
”Akane won’t be angry?” he asked.
”She gave her okay,” Yui whispered. “A long time ago.”
Back when Haruto had confessed the truth to Akane, she’d only asked that he not be alone with Yui or Harue without her present.
But with their daily lives shifting, it had become harder to follow that rule.
Akane had noticed—and quietly granted her permission.
”It’s been a while since we’ve done this here,” Yui murmured, brushing against him with a slow, deliberate movement.
”You’re getting bold again,” Haruto said, voice low.
”If I want special treatment… I have to put in the effort,” she replied with a breathy laugh.
She shifted gently, moving in slow rhythm, her fingers clutching the fabric of Haruto’s coat.
The quiet between them felt heavy—soft, fragile, like something that could break at any moment.
”Ah… it’s warm… I can feel it,” she murmured under her breath.
”You’ve been preparing for this?” Haruto asked, eyes narrowing slightly.
”Akane and I… we’ve been practicing in our own way,” she admitted.
”I see,” he said, his voice low. “You’re serious about earning special treatment, huh?”
”Of course,” she replied without pause.
Her movements grew a little faster, her breath catching.
The warmth between them rose, like quiet waves in a still pond.
”Ahh… this feeling… it’s so much…” she whispered.
”Are you reaching your limit already?” Haruto asked.
”N-not yet… I’m still okay… just a little more…!”
Thump…
”Nnnh… I-I think I’m almost…!”
Thump…
”Ah… it’s too much…!”
Thump…
”I… I can’t hold it anymore…!”
Yui’s shoulders trembled, her voice quiet and uneven as she leaned into him.
”I’m not quite done,” Haruto said gently, steadying her with both hands as he moved one more time.
”No… wait… not here… what if someone hears us…” she said in a flustered tone.
They were still in the Vice Director’s office—technically secure, but not without risk.
Anyone passing by might hear a sound through the door.
”Ah… please… not like this…”
”You did well,” Haruto said, offering a soft smile. “Here’s your reward.”
Drip… drip… tap…
”!”
Yui quickly covered her mouth with both hands, trying her best not to make a sound.
Still, warmth slowly spread outward, soaking through his lap.
Haruto looked down with a quiet sigh. His trousers were damp—completely soaked.
With no change of clothes, he simply slipped into his white coat and quietly exited the hospital…
still damp from head to toe.
Notes:
• Sentarou – Male. An elderly man with white hair. He is a retired shiatsu therapist who has suffered from chronic back pain since his youth. He is stubborn and skeptical of new treatments, preferring to rely on his own judgment. He has a distant but caring relationship with his daughter, Chiaki.
• Mebae – Munesawa Mebae. A second-year medical student and close friend of Renka. She is less interested in the abnormality of Haruto’s massage but is straightforward and assertive, as seen when she asks Haruto to stop using her surname.
