.Me?

Iwakura-san leaked out the information about who you are and which school you go to. Your mobile number, even if who of your classmates has 10k yen, they’re able to have that from the phone network

.Perhaps they do.

Who’s number did I write on the emergency contact again?

That’s why those guys come to you first.

.Is that how it is?

Nobody knows that I’m related to Kuromori They just think that I’m a normal high school student. They’ll take a hold of me then have me spill out Nei-san’s location.

Ah.Then, Maika and Megu are still safe, aren’t they?

I sighed.

If I’m the only one they’re aiming, I can deal with it somehow. But.Margo-san.

You see Yoshida-kun.the underground world is comparatively small

.Ha?

What do you think will happen if Mr, Viola’s hired Yakuza and Shirasaka family shared information?

.Share information?

It would immediatelye known that Megumi-chan’s the girl who run away with you. Shirasaka house is requesting to search Megumi-chan no investigation companies. Students on the same class and same school would be uploaded on the underground community. There’s no person who won’t think that you two are related.

In short.They’ll cooperate and come after us?

It’ll be immediately found out that we’re behind Yoshida-kun and Megumi-chan. If both targets are in the same group. There’s a high possibility that Mr. Viola’s hired crime syndicate and Shirasaka house’s hired investigators will cooperate

.Certainly.

That would become troublesome.

Can’t we have the syndicate hired by Cesario Viola withdraw?

Katsuko-nee asked Margo-san.

Un.If we use the name Kuromori, the crime syndicate might give up.

That’s no good. The crime syndicate is connected with Mr. Viola. There’s almost clues on that mister. We should let him free and gather more intelligence

Margo-san’s opinion is reasonable.

.We’re able to escape to this hotel from the crime syndicate by chance. They don’t know our relation with this facility after all.

Minaho-neesan said.

Those who enter the underground gate of this hotel will be Guestswithout question thus.they cannot tell information about the customers, they’ll reject it. That would make the other side quiet

Kuromoriis a prostitution ring that is associated with the big shots of politics and business circles.

That means that they’d rather die than tell that Information about the guests For the time being.Mr. Viola’s hired crime syndicate would hold back. They would feel indebt with the hotel that’s under the rule of Kuromoriwithout knowing anything. But.Shirasaka house. They know that they’re dealing with Kuromorifrom the start.

.We need to make a hit before Shirasaka house is able to arrange themselves.

Margo-san said and looked at Maika.

I feel sorry for Maika-chan but.can you contact your mother and your grandfather on mother’s side?

.That’s?

What the Shirasaka house fears the most is the people knowing Shirasaka Sousuke’s evildoing. It would cause serious damage on the Shirasaka house after all

Margo-san analyzes it clearly.

The second one is to secure Shirasaka Sousuke himself. They want to recapture Shirasaka Sousuke without anyone knowing that he’s kidnapped

.I see.

Securing Megumi-chan is the later of the priority level.At most, they must be thinking that she has the clues on Shirasaka’s current whereabouts

Margo-san supplements Minaho-neesan’s talk.

If the head of Shirasaka house was a bit more decent and.He’ll contact me directly. There’s a lot of people among them who knows me and the mansion!

The family and the persons connected with Shirasaka Sousuke naturally knows Kuromorias well.

No.There’s a lot of Guestsamong the clan as well.

It’s a makeshift.All the dirty work are done by the people they hired, it’ll get even more troublesome as they don’t approach themselves.

.I see

Therefore.What was Shirasaka Sousuke doing in the back until now. And with the fact that he’s being restrained in Australia.They think that this will be leaked to people other than Shirasaka house

Margo-san smiled.

In short.We’re informing Maika’s mother’s side to restrain the head of Shirasaka house!

Maika-san’s grandfather.Ichikawa-san is a decent and honest person, or so I’ve heard.We’ve never met each other however.

In short.He’s not a guest of the mansion.

A person completely without contact with Kuromori

There’s no need to let the public know Shirasaka Sousuke’s back face.Having the relative, Ichikawa-san know first and it will have enough effect. Ichikawa-san is the leader of the advertising industry and a person in equal ground of the head of Shirasaka house. He won’t do something that’s on Shirasaka house’s convenience!

Rather.They hate being involved with the scandal of Shirasaka house. For Ichikawa-san, Shirasaka Sousuke’s evildoing is an inexcusable act of betrayal

Even if it’s a political marriage.the man who married his own daughter is a manager of an illegal prostitution ring.

An honest man shouldn’t be able to tolerate such things.

I’m sure my Grandfather would be surprised.

.Maika muttered.

It seems.Maika should better report him now.

Quietly.she laughed and answered.

.Maika, will you please do it?

Maika looks up at me.

What are you saying.I’m Onii-san’s Woman

.Maika.

Maika understands how serious Yuzuki-san as well.but!

Maika hesitates.

Isn’t it about time you tell Maika everything?

.Maika’s too clever.

Even though we try not to speak the whole picture of Kuromorito Maika.she noticed it.

It’s still no good.We can’t tell you everything

Minaho-neesan said clearly.

Does that mean that you can’t trust Maika?

Maika looks straight at Minaho-neesan.

.That’s wrong. It’s the problem of timing. I think that it’s better not to tell Maika-san everything yet. That way, you can behave at ease

MInaho-neesan answered with a smile.

.What do you mean?

We can’t have Maika-san come home today but.it’s possible that you will meet your mother and grandfather tomorrow. At that time, I would be troubled if Maika-san knows too much. You might tell Ichikawa-san information we don’t want them to know yet. You’re thinking that Maika will tell her grandfather without thought? I don’t.But, I cannot underestimate Maika-san’s grandfather. He’s managing a big enterprise. I think that he’ll be able to gather information from Maika-san persuasively.

Minaho-neesan looked at Maika with strong eyes.

Therefore.We still can’t tell you about everythingYet!

.Maika

Not Yetfor now. Then you’re going to tell me everything sometime?

.Yes. I promise that

The two women glare at each other.

Got it.Maika will contact Mama and grandfather.

Maika submitted for the time being.

1. Teki no stando da!

.Ah, Hello, Ojii-chan?

No.Like I said, it’s not like that. It’s a hamburger steak made by a genuine chef of a restaurant! .Like I said, that’s not it! .Why are you not listening to Maika seriously? Maika’s getting angry! It’s okay it’s okay, there’s no need to apologize. It’s not that Maika’s seriously angry. .Eh? .Aah! Ojii-chan still doesn’t believe me. Even though Maika’s really been kidnapped! .Ah. .Wait a moment. I’ll give the phone to the kidnapper boss! .Like I said, It’s not! It’s not a Pleasure seeking criminalbut .Kidnapper!1 .Geez!
