Then.why are you in the passenger seat?
She asks Fujimiya-san.
This car is Seki-san’s private car after all!
I think that it’s a rule in Kouzuki security service that the subordinate drives at such case.
Err.Seki-san and Fujimiya-san are both top elites under chief Tanizawa of Kouzuki security service.
Seki-san is selected asKakka’spersonal guard though. Who’s top and who’s bottom?1
Therefore.I leave the driving to Seki-san
Fujimiya-san said calmly.
You’re younger than me right?
However.I entered Kouzuki security service ahead of you. I was 16 years old when I was scouted by chief Tanizawa directly You see.after I graduated from college, I studied in Europe! I joined in the company with advanced professional education.it has nothing to do with my age at joining!
Seki-san and Fujimiya-san aren’t bulging.
Seki-san, if you want it by all means I don’t mind driving but my driving is rough you know? I might end up scratching Seki-san’s treasured car. Are you still okay with that?
Seki-san.
Geez! I get it already! I just have to drive, right?
She gets in the driver seat angrily.
1. That’s lewd!
Chapter 241
Everyone.have you put on your seatbelts?
Seki-san checks us through the rear mirror
It’ll shake for a bit but please don’t mind it
The engine starts.
Torurururuunn! The engine turns lightly.as expected of a custom car. The sound of the engine is deep. It’s quite a high power engine.
Then.we’re going!
.Then
The car began to move and suddenly shakes greatly. Michi and I who are sitting facing the back bent forward. On the contrary, Misuzu and the girls were strongly pressed against the seat. Ah.true, this car is heavy. Since we’re forcibly moving a heavy car with a high power engine.the behavior is rough. If not, it won’t even move an inch.
I prefer the quiet cars. If this was rolls Royce, then a glass of water won’t spill when it starts.
Fujimiya-san speaks sarcastically.
Sorry but.I prefer the wild taste of the American cars.
I think that Cadillac has a very low degree of perfection as a car. Since before, American made luxury cars are synonymous to bad taste, isn’t it?
Seki-san’s fighting spirit burns from what Fujimiya-san said.
Fujimiya-san.what company owns Rolls-Royce right now?
.It’s under the German company BMW’s umbrella Bentley? Under the control of German Volkswagen group Lotus? It’s acquired by a state-owned company in Malaysia! Austin? It’s bought by a Chinese enterprise! Jaguar and Land Rover? It’s under an Indian company right now!
Fujimiya-san glares at Seki-san.
Seki-san.you’re well known with international companies so of course you know everything you have asked, am I right?
No ! Please do not overestimate me. I have fields that I am weak from too. Especially automobile industry!
Lies.it’s obvious that she’s well-informed.
But, is that so? I understood it from Fujimiya-san’s words. The UK car manufacturers who were proud of their great power now don’t even have the shadow of their former selves. Is there no car manufacturer left in the UK anymore?
there’s still Aston Martin there. !
Fujimiya-san glares strongly.
Oh, there’s that company too. If I recall.it’s under the Ford cars in US, it was somehow repurchased by David Richards using the capitalist money in the Middle East.but, was it sold?
.Kuh! But still.there’s at least one remaining in the UK, that’s great. Fujimiya-san
Seki-san shows a victorious smile.
Well.I can’t understand the nerve of the UK who’s a country well known in automotive industry and even known for years just to sell their brands away to the other countries. Is this what they mean byPoverty dulls the wit?
Fujimiya-san’s enduring.
In that respect.General motors is manufacturing and selling Cadillac, Buick, Corvette, and Camaro at the moment. When it comes to cars, the citizen’s love is different
In the situation with continued deficit, they finally maintained by putting taxes on the government.are you talking about that American citizen love?
It’s a very important national strategy to keep maintaining the automobile industry of the home country I love UK, I don’t want to speak badly of America’s automobile industry but.
Fujimiya-san’s counterattack begins.
When US economy is in good shape, they want a British prestigious brand, don’t they? Lotus, Jaguar, and Land Rover were owned by an American companies at one time
You’re right.there was that age However.As soon as their economy got worse, the sold British automobile brand sold to the emerging countries were owned by America!
Fujimiya-san looks at Seki-san with eyes of hate.
It can’t be helped.for a British automobile brand with only their name left in them, only emerging countries with shallow history in automotive industry would buy those
Seki-san smiles.
They can’t afford to sell their cherished American car brands. It’s like selling the soul of their country!
Even though they sold the
IBM
computer division to China! It’s only the computer department!
IBM
is alive and well!
Seki-san and Fujimiya-san’s standoff continues.
.But These two aren’t even British or American and yet.why are they fighting this far? While they’re talking about that.the car has gone around the theater and arrived at the main gate. It’s already night.the vicinity is dark. Kouzuki Security service security guard comes
Request.S3
Seki-san opens the window and tells the security guard.
Roger. We’ll add two units to the imperial hotel
Looking at it.There are two cars with Kouzuki security service logo in front of the theater.
One normal size Sedan.and one big light van.
Understood
Seki-san gives her approval and the guard gave the drivers of the stopped car a sign.
The two cars lit up.
.Let’s go
Seki-san starts the car.
Our car is sandwiched in between the two cars of the Kouzuki security service.it’s a convoy. The leading care is the Sedan. The light van comes from behind. If the three cars move this way.the risk going to the Imperial Hotel will decrease.
.It’ll be fine
Misuzu smiles at Ruriko-san who’s worried.
The Imperial Hotel isn’t that far
How far is it?
I ask.
Sorry but I’ve never been to such a luxurious hotel. I don’t know where it is.
It’s in Odaiba. I think that we will arrive in about 15 minutes in this pace
Oh, it’s the landfill area in Tokyo Bay?
Recently, there’s a lot of luxury hotels made, so Imperial hotel is one of them
.My
Seki-san mutters in the driver seat.
What’s wrong?
Fujimiya-san who’s sullen from losing the car dispute a while ago.has her face returned to guard mode.
The leading car is entering a different route than planned.
A change of plans?
But.our car is crammed by Kouzuki security service car in front and behind. There’s the light van following from behind.we can only turn our cars in accordance to the leading car.
I wonder if something happened that changed the route?
Seki-san tilts her head.
Then, we should be contacted about it but.
Fujimiya-san shows a strange face.
I. Somehow feel uneasiness. Margo-san told me to immediately respond when you feel that something’sweird If you feelit’s going wellthen it may be wrong but. Once you think it’sstrangeorodd.then there’s something absolutely wrong going on. What’s left is to find the cause of unease.
