Their three-minute performance finished in no time.
Lovely!
The choir girls clapped their hands as soon as the performance ends.
Yes, I like this The violin sonata earlier was overwhelming, but this Mozart piece is pleasant.
The girls speak out their impressions with bright faces.
Igarashi Izumi’s face is turning even more gloomy.
Then.
Matsumoto Maki-san, slowly waking up from the afterglow of the performance.
She looked at Marika sitting next to her and shouted.
Takahata-san, I need you in my life!
That’s.
I want to play piano with you forever!
She tells Matsumoto Maki-san with tears in her eyes.
Me too, Matsumoto-san
Marika’s eyes are also teary
I want to be with you too!
At that moment.
Wait!
Igarashi Izumi shouts.
She’s got tears in her eyes, but it’s out of frustration.
You can’t do that! What about me? What will happen to me?
Marika, Matsumoto Maki-san, and Igarashi Izumi.
The three of them are in the same music school.
Marika and Maki-san are in the piano department.
Igarashi Izumi’s in the vocal music.
Marika introduced Maki-san and her little sister to me.
Furthermore, it wasn’t just an introduction, she wanted me to hear the performance of the siblings.
On the other hand, Igarashi Izumi just came along as she pleased.
Only one of them is wearing a leather jacket on top of the school uniform, and bad makeup.
What’s the relationship between these three?
Okay, that’s enough
Minaho-neesan’s voice takes control of the music room.
It seems that the thoughts you’ve been hiding inside have come out
Marika, Matsumoto Maki-san, and Igarashi Izumi’s thoughts.
Your concerns are now private so let’s move to a separate location
Minaho-neesan said.
Thank you for lending us the room and the piano, choir club
Rei-chan, dressed up as a gorgeous man, thanked the choir club.
Fujimiya-san, there are still a lot of students outside the music room
Minaho-neesan mentions the spectators who saw Rei-chan and chased after her
I know. I’ll continue my way to the schoolyard alone
Rei-chan replies.
She’ll lead the spectators back to Edie and her school swimsuit judo tournament.
That’ll help, thank you
Minaho-neesan said, then.
Let’s go
She tells us
Thank you, choir club
I bow my head to Osaki-san.
Then, I noticed.
Nei’s going to be the host of Edie’s tournament.
Speaking of which. Nei’s.
If I recall, she was in the choir club when she enrolled, right?
Uhm, has the choir club finished their presentation at the school festival yet?
I asked.
Yes, we’re done. We no longer have a turn
Osaki-san replied.
If so.
If so, I have a request Request?
Osaki-san looks at me cautiously
Uhm, You know about Edie, the member of our bakery, the international student, right? Yes, I know. She’s quite energetic She’s doing martial arts, isn’t she? A guy in our class said that she won some kind of competition the other day And she’s doing something today too, something huge in the schoolyard You don’t know? That was a ring! I don’t know much, but some professional fighters that Edie-san knows are also coming, and I heard that they’ll televise it
The other club members reacted.
Edie stands out a lot so everyone knows her.
If they know about the school swimsuit judo tournament, then that makes it easier.
Yes, it will be on TV this 3, and so.
I tell the choir club the idea I just came up with
Can you make that decision on your own?
Osaki-san glares at me.
No, Edie asked me earlier if I could ask the choir club a favor if I’m going here anyway. I just forgot about it Oh right, now I remember
Rei-chan also followed up on my sloppy lie.
Edie-san and I work out in the same gym so we get along. So, I also will ask the same of everyone in the choir club, please
The choir club is weak to a famous person, Rei-chan in this case, bowing to them.
Osaki-san, why don’t we? We don’t have any plans today anyway Yes, we even get to hear two great performances, so we should give something in return I mean, that also means that we’re showing up on TV, right? Let’s go! Prez!
Osaki-san;
Geez, I get it. I’ll do it, we’ll show up okay!
The choir club agreed to my suggestion.
Rei-chan took the spectators with her.
Thanks to that, we moved out of the music room without problems.
We’re going to the usual principal’s office.
This is the only place that’s always empty
The corridor to the principal’s office location is designed and built to have a flow where no students nor teacher would pass through it
Enter
Minaho-neesan unlocks the principal’s office and we entered.
Kou, get some chairs, we’ll sit down and talk
To me, the principal’s office is a familiar place.
I took some folding chairs for everyone. Kurose Anju and Erica helped out.
Minaho-neesan went to the principal’s desk.
Neither the principal’s office nor the desk is allowed for use to that strange old man whose ‘principal’ is in the title.
This is the room for the board chairman of the school, and the shadow ruler, Kuromori Minaho’s room.
Sit down Thank you’
Yeah, Minaho-neesan’s sitting on the principal’s seat
Right in front of her are Marika, Matsumoto Maki-san, and Igarashi Izumi.
To the right are Mariko, Tsukiko, and Kurose Anju.
The left side has Erica and Matsumoto Miki-san.
Where do I sit?
Sit next to me, Kou
Minaho-neesan calls me and I carry the folding chair next to the principal’s chair.
Well, let’s do greetings first. I’m Kuormori Minaho. The head of the Kuomori house
Minaho-neesan introduces herself to Matsumoto-san
I do various businesses, some on the surface, others behind the scenes. This school belongs to me
This is an unusual situation, but the fact that Minaho-neesan just used the room as she pleased right in front of their eyes made Matsumoto-san accept the situation.
I’m also the one supporting Takahata Marika’s tuition. I think that Matsumoto-san knows that, as it’s been a month now
Due to Erica’s house problems, Marika almost had her tuition stopped, which was coming from Erica’s grandfather’s state.
Currently, Minaho-neesan’s paying for Marika’s tuition from the proceeds of taking over the blue-chip shares of the large company that Erica’s grandfather owned.
And he’s Kuromori Kou, my brother, and he’s succeeding the Kuromori house soon
Minaho-neesan introduces me once again.
He has a lot of people with power around him. You’ve seen some of them already. And, all of us, have a firm heart to do anything for him
Minaho-neesan smiles.
Seeing Margo-san’s interaction with the TV crews, and Rei-chan’s friendly attitude toward me, Matsumoto-san and the group noticed that we were out of the norm.
Furthermore, Minaho-neesan’s overwhelmingly dark atmosphere and attitude just support the existence of our power.
From here on, you’ll talk to him. What you want, what you seek, and what’s the price you can pay as compensation to him. I’m saying this beforehand, Kuromori house isn’t a charity. We’re a business, and so we don’t accept deals unless it’s equal
Right, we’re.
Kuromori house’s true nature is a criminal syndicate, but, we don’t take or give one-sidedly.
We seek equivalent value.
If you can convince him, then you’ll receive all the help I can give. Whether it’s money, backing from the other side, or even something more dangerous, you can get what you see. That’s all I can promise you
