My Gender Bend Harem: Starting from Chainsaw Man

"Renji Kuroda, how did you know so many things in advance?"Himeno's tone was filled with shock and confusion.

Renji Kuroda gently shook his head, a hint of helplessness on his face. "I'm sorry, Himeno-senpai, I can't say. It's the price of the contract.""And I'm not omnipotent. I already said from the very beginning that these foods were just for emergencies. If I really could know everything in advance, I'd be home sleeping soundly by now."

Himeno thought about it carefully after Renji said that, and it seemed to be true.

Hayakawa Aki's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said eagerly, "Hey, in that case, why don't we go collect some food now? Maybe there are some guests' foods on this floor that they didn't have time to take."

Renji hesitated.After all, the Hunger Devil designed all this, and her ability is to control hungry people to become her pawns. If she traps you in a place, how could she kindly leave food behind?

But seeing Aki's expectant gaze, and thinking that searching for a while wouldn't take much time, he nodded."Alright..."

Renji exited his transformation state, and everyone immediately sprang into action. They scattered to every corner of the hotel, meticulously searching every possible spot where food might be hidden.

However, there was nothing in the entire hotel lobby, corridor, or rooms. Let alone food, there wasn't even anything to drink. The only food available to satisfy their hunger was the mineral water and compressed biscuits Renji had brought.

Everyone reassembled in the room, looking at each other. Renji organized the food and distributed a portion to everyone.

A long time passed in a flash. Because time was paused in this space, Renji estimated, based on his internal sense, that approximately nine hours had already gone by.

Renji ultimately couldn't resist the encroachment of sleepiness, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.

He didn't know how long passed, but in his dream, his cheek was gently poked. Renji woke up with a start, opened his eyes, and saw Himeno standing by the bed, with a hint of a tired smile."I'm tired too. Get up and let me sleep for a bit."

Renji rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at Denji, who was still sound asleep on the other bed, asking Himeno why she didn't go to the next room to rest. Himeno shook her head."A cold bed, or the bed you just warmed up, which one do you think I'd choose? Alright, alright, hurry up and get up, you've slept for a long time now. It's your turn to patrol, let me sleep for a bit too."

Renji had no choice but to get out of bed, yawn, and walk out into the corridor.

"Ding~ Detected Higashiyama Kobeni's scared emotion. System rewards 5 points."

The system's voice would occasionally ring out. Renji opened the system interface to check and found that he had accumulated a considerable amount of points in the past few hours. Including the previously accumulated points, the total had already exceeded the 700 mark, reaching 768 points.

During this time, Hayakawa Aki tirelessly patrolled back and forth between the hall and the corridors, trying to find a way to escape, without resting.

Seeing this, Renji walked over to persuade her to rest for a while and to wake Denji.

Hayakawa Aki initially shook her head and refused, but under Renji's patient persuasion, she finally nodded and agreed to rest for a while.

Soon after, Denji walked over, rubbing his messy hair and looking sleepy. The two walked together, starting a new round of patrols.

In the corner of the hotel lobby, the Eternal Devil was thrown there by someone.

The devil's sustenance is human fear; the more humans fear, the stronger the devil becomes. Its head had now become abnormally huge, almost filling a corner of the hall, but its gaze remained dull. It no longer cried out, "So hungry, so hungry," and dozens of large mouths on it drooled.

Denji saw this scene and mistakenly thought the Eternal Devil had revived, preparing to pull the chainsaw pull cord between the jellies. Renji stopped him.

After patrolling once, Renji found Power squatting in the toilet, but Arai Hirokazu and Higashiyama Kobeni were nowhere to be seen.

Renji returned to the original double-bed room to search, wanting to see if they had come back.

In the room, Hayawaka Aki was sound asleep, her black long hair loosely draped beside her cheeks, with a few strands sticking to her pretty face, showing a hint of softness.

Unlike Hayawaka Aki, Himeno's sleeping posture seemed a bit strange. She was completely curled up in the quilt, her body arched, not moving at all.

Renji thought to himself, Himeno's sleeping posture is really strange. Did she sleep like this in the original work?

Without much thought, Renji left the room and closed the door.

After a long while, Himeno finally poked her head out of the quilt, her face flushed, and let out a long sigh.

She sniffed the strange smell in the bedding, her face full of confusion. She had never smelled that scent since she was a child, and it made her body and mind feel a strange sense of desire.

Along the corridor, Renji and Denji searched room by room and soon found Arai Hirokazu, who had locked herself in a room.

She was wrapped tightly in a quilt, eyes hollow, head bowed. When Renji Kuroda opened the door, she merely raised her head mechanically to glance at him, then lowered it again without a word.

Renji gently closed the door and continued searching. After checking two more rooms, he finally found Higashiyama Kobeni in the third.

[Ding~ Detected Higashiyama Kobeni's fear. System rewards 5 points.]

Kobeni was completely unaware of Renji and Denji's arrival. Curled up with her back to them, she was wrapped in a quilt, occasionally letting out faint, helpless sobs.

"Hey, Denji, go patrol on your own for now. And remember, don't knock unless it's urgent."

"Oh... alright..." Denji was visibly reluctant, but obeyed Renji's instruction and stepped out, closing the door behind him.

Only after the door clicked shut did Kobeni realize someone was in the room. She slowly turned her head, her eyes filled with terror and unease.

To be honest, her mental state was already near collapse. Her eyes were swollen and red, her face pale as paper, and her voice barely audible—her whole body trembling from sheer fear.

Seeing her in this state, Renji felt it again.

His expression first turned complicated—then, oddly enough, a spark of excitement flickered in his eyes, as if he had just glimpsed a ray of hope. He walked slowly over and sat in a chair opposite her.

This subtle shift made Kobeni's teary eyes suddenly light up. She struggled to sit up, clutching her hands into tight fists on her thighs, staring at Renji, desperate for some kind of good news.

But Renji's face darkened again. He let out a deep sigh, filled with helplessness and despair.

"No way out. I've tried everything I could think of—every possibility. Nothing worked. It's like this place is sealed tight. We're stuck here, just waiting for the food to run out. After that... only death awaits. We're all going to die. No one's getting out of this."

[Ding~ Detected Higashiyama Kobeni's despair. System rewards 10 points.]

Kobeni was stunned. Her sobs ceased, and for a moment she sat there in silence, tears running freely down her cheeks.

"Eh... eh eh eh?!... Hnngh... hmm... I don't want to die! I don't want to die! I want to live! I want to get out! Wuwuwuwuwuwu..."

She broke down, burying her face in her hands, weeping uncontrollably—her voice hoarse with panic and desperation.

Renji watched quietly.

Then, he spoke again, his tone changing.

"But... maybe there's one way."

Kobeni paused mid-sob. She looked up slowly, her face streaked with tears, her eyes red and searching.

"Eh... eh?"

"Do you remember the 'V' sign I asked you to make with both hands earlier?"

Still sniffling, Kobeni slowly raised her trembling hands and formed the familiar 'V' sign. Back then, the gesture had felt meaningless—but now, on the brink of collapse, even the smallest suggestion of a way out gave her something to hold on to.

But Renji shook his head, and with a solemn expression, pointed to an old, dust-covered dance machine in the corner of the room.

"Just the 'V' sign won't cut it anymore. If we want to get out of here… you have to dance on that."

Kobeni froze. She stared at him, stunned—as though he'd just spoken in an alien language. Dance? In a place like this? Trapped, terrified, and surrounded by death?

Renji's face, however, remained dead serious.

"And not just any dance. You have to do it perfectly—on that machine, 100% accuracy. No mistakes. And..."

He paused.

"You have to take off your clothes while doing it."

Kobeni blinked, her expression blank. Her mind couldn't process what she had just heard. This had to be a joke. It had to be. But Renji didn't laugh.

He simply looked at her, grave and unyielding.
