A/N: As promised in the previous chapter, here's the epilogue from Senku's POV. Hope you'll enjoy this little gift from me ^^

Senku's P.O.V

The following day, Senku decided to take it easy and declared one week of rest with no science-related work for everyone since they deserved it after working so hard and tirelessly on the cellphone for months. As it was the chief's call, no one dared to say otherwise but to be honest, the villagers were glad for the reprieve before starting on the next round of work which was going to be an even worst nightmare than before.

However, they would leave that to their future selves to agonize over and as for now, the people of Ishigami Village were going to enjoy their vacation to the fullest. That was the plan for everyone, but one.

Senku, being Senku, didn't heed his own words like everyone else. Instead, he saw this as an opportunity to replenish the chemical stock as a lot of them were used up during the making of the cell phone. And so, the scientist had planned to hole himself up in his laboratory for the entire week with hopefully, zero interruption since everyone would be busy with their own activities.

At least, that was what Senku intended for himself and yet, he found himself being dragged away from the direction of the science lab the moment that he stepped outside of the observatory tower by none other than Chrome.

"What's the meaning of this, Chrome?!" The green-haired teen demanded as he tried to pull his hand free from said brunette's hold but was failing miserably as the other tightened his grip. "Let go of me!"

Instead of providing an explanation, Chrome just looked over his shoulder at the scowling scientist with an apologetic expression as he headed over to where Ginro, Kinro and Kohaku were waiting by the edge of the forest, "Sorry, Senku!"

"I swear to god, I'm gonna murder whoever is behind this," Senku let out a threatening growl. "And it's a promise."

The brunette let out a peal of nervous laughter at the murderous glint in those ruby-red eyes, saying nothing as he hurried his pace; still dragging the fuming scientist after him.

"Senku, nice of you to join us," Kohaku greeted the approaching pair, sapphire-blue eyes lit with amusement.

"The pleasure's not mine," said scientist grunted as he swiped his hand away from Chrome the moment the teen loosened his tight grip, glaring at the sheepish teen while he rubbed at his sore wrist.

His mood soured further when the corners of the blonde's lips twisted into a teasing smirk, and he scowled, "Someone better explain to me what's going on!"

The obvious grin on Kohaku's face grew as she responded gleefully, "We have clear instructions from (Name) to keep you away from your lab and anything that has got to do with science. Something about how you need to rest too which means no science stuff. Her words, not mine."

Senku felt his right eye twitching once he learnt that his girlfriend was the reason for his kidnapping, "I'm gonna murder her."

He turned to head back to the village to hunt down the (h/c)-haired girl and carried out said murder but was stopped by a hand on his shoulder.

Immediately, the green-haired teen spun around, ready to tear that person a new one when he came face-to-face with a smiling Kohaku whose eyes told a different story if the killer looks in it was anything to go by.

"Sorry, Senku but (Name)'s words are golden and I'm not gonna disobey them. So, you'll be tagging along," the blonde smiled sweetly, her fingers curling as she dug her nails into his flesh to reiterate her point.
