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.

Chapter 116
116. Call with grandfather
.Ah, Hello, Ojii-chan?
It’s me. Maika.Un. I’m fine! Is it okay for me to make a call right now?Ah, great! Eh?Maika’s in the middle of meal. While we’re at it, I’ve got something I have to ask Ojii-chan! eeh?I’m not!

Like I said.I’m not asking for a phone! Actually. Un.You see. Maika’s been kidnapped! .Kidnapping. That’s right. Maika’s in the course of being kidnapped! .Jeez! Ojii-chan, please listen to Maika properly! I’m really really being kidnapped! Ah.But, they didn’t do anything cruel to me so don’t worry. All of the kidnappers are good people. UN.We’re in the middle of the meal right now. That’s right, I’m eating outside. There’s no way I’m at home when I’m kidnapped! eeh? There’s now way I can tell you where I am right now you know? Maika’s been caught! .Eh? Maika’s eating hamburger steak No, it’s not a family restaurant. It’s something a formal chef made. Un.It’s quite good. It’s very delicious. 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! Anyway.I’m going to give her the phone!
.!!!
.I’ve taken the phone.
Is this Ichikawa-san? Let me say my greetings for the first time. I’m.Kuromori Minaho. No.I’m not Maika-san’s friend at school. .We don’t have that kind of relationship. I’m a person from the underground. Yes.I have kidnapped Maika-san. .Yes. It is as you say. .It is, Kuromori. I think you will understand it easier if I say I’m Kuromori Kunousuke’sdaughter. .Yes. That Kuromori Konousuke My father is Kuromori Kouichiro. I’m the current successor of the Organizationmy grandfather has made. I think Ichikawa-sama has come several times during 1975’s. .Yes. .Yes, that Kuromori .Have you comer to remember it? .That is right. I’m the current head of Kuromori. I’m holding the power of the organization. .Yes, that is right? .Why is a person ofKuromoritogether with Maika-san? .Fufufufu. It is as your granddaughter told you earlier. .Yes We have kidnapped Shirasaka Maika-sama. .That is right. .Yes. .It’s not a joke nor a ruse.
Kuromorihouse has belonged in the underground Japan for many years
.Yes, that is right. We’re providing polite accommodation for Maika-sama. .Ufufufu .There is no need to panic. Please listen to what I have to say until the end. I think you should refrain from making any rash actions. .Yes. We don’t want to make the matters worse as well. I guarantee Maika-san’s safety. .No, no, there’s no such thing. Our Organizationhas multiple contacts in mass media. Yes.No matter how much of a lead Ichikawa-sama lead the advertising business, it’s impossible to control all of the mass media. We have internet nowadays. Yes.Maika-san’s father’s family may be from a newspaper company, however.they cannot hold down the rival companies of the organization, can they? Rather.I think they will be pleasured to report a scandal leading to Shirasaka house. .Yes. .That is right. We have information on a big scandal on Shirasaka house. Therefore, I advice Ichikawa-sama to take actions ahead before the possibility of the scandal reaching Ichikawa-sama as well. Shirasaka house’s is married to Ichikawa-sama’s eldest daughter after all. It may prove fatal for Ichikawa-sama as well. Would you like me to speak about the details? Yes.Then, I will begin. First.I will warn you beforehand.Our Organizationcurrently hold not just Maika-san. Maika-sama’s father who is supposed to be in a business trip in Australia.Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke is also restrained by us. Yes.That is right. Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke is already imprisoned by my people. I cannot answer where he is right now. Shirasaka house has already began searching for Mr. Sousuke. Please confirm it later. As a matter of fact.Our objective is Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke. Yes.Our purpose for having Maika-sama with us isn’t for ransom. We’ve taken Maika-sama just to make contact with Ichikawa-sama. I would like to express it again.We do not have the intention to hurt Maika-sama at all. We would like to return her home as much as possible. .Yes. I want to build friendly relationship with Ichikawa-sama as much as possible. .Yes. We wish for such situation to continue as well. Above all.Maika-san is an intelligent and beautiful young lady. To be honest, we don’t want to do anything violent to her as much as possible. .Yes. .I’ve already promised Maika-san’s safety earlier. Of course.in case we fall into an extremely disadvantageous situation, but. .Very well. Then.Let’s return to Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke. Is Ichikawa-sama aware that Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke is affliated with our Organizationfor over the past 20 years? .That is so. Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke have taken the leader-like standpoint on the Kuromori Organization. Suppose you don’t believe me.Let’s see. In case of Ichikawa-sama’s company, you can ask the managing director Yamazaki.Or the business bureau director Tamura, or the media promotion tactics director Yoshioka. Those three are especially close with Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke, I think Ichikawa-sama knows this as well. .Those three are long timeguestsof ours. Yes.Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke have those people as regular customers of our Organization Everyone should know my relationship with Mr. Sousuke. .Yes. Please you can confirm it later. I will continue our previous topic. .I will express it frankly. Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke has betrayed our Organization Currently, Mr. Sousuke tried to start up a new Organizationby himself while backed by a crime organization. You can ask director Yamazaki about this as well. Director Yamazaki should have deep connections with the establishment of Mr. Sousuke’s new organization. And.Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke has stolen our Client listfor his new organization. .This is a clear act of betrayal for ourOrganization Of course.We cannot just overlook it in silence. Kuromoribelongs to the underground society. We never forgive Traitors I think Ichikawa-sama knows that kind of world. .Yes. .That is right. We think that Shirasaka house will still want to recapture Mr. Sousuke. It seems that they want to completely annihilate our Organizationto rescue Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke. If this continues, Kuromoriwill have to fight against Shirasaka house on full scale. When it happens.The spark is likely to reach even Ichikawa-sama as well. Your food critic young lady.and your two granddaughters will be involved as well. It is possible that the bad influence will reach the company and family of Ichikawa-sama. I will say it again.Our Organizationis a long established business in this industry. There’s a record of Ichikawa himself coming as well. There are many people among your clan who patronized us in the past. Our Organization.can secure the fire of the scandal as much as we want. Do you remember Morimoto, our clerk? .Yes Morimoto is still in our Organization. .That is right. The events in our Organizationwill never be leaked outside. We have a method to keep the secrets of our guests. Therefore.Our Organizationwill continue to receive favors from the guests. But.Shirasaka Sousuke has betrayed us.and tried to steal the guests’ information. .Yes. .That is right. If this continues, the secret guest list of our Organizationfor all the years.we fear that Shirasaka Sousuke will leak the personal information of our guests to the crime syndicates. I think you understand our reason why we have to dispose Shirasaka Sousuke with all our effort. .Yes. .It is as you say. Our purpose is to punish Shirasaka Sousuke. That’s all. We do not expect a fruitless fight with Ichikawa-sama nor Shirasaka house .Of course. .Yes, please understand .Yes As long as they abandon Shirasaka Sousuke.that will be enough. But.If ever Shirasaka house wants to rescue Mr. Sousuke by all means. In addition, if they do not stop the attack at our Organization We have to defend ourselves. Yes.That is how it will be. Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke’s betrayal is the cause of this since the beginning. We’re just doing the proper action of an Organizationfrom the underground. Yes.we do not care about money. Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke was a member of our Organization. .It’s impossible. .Impossible. Then.Ichikawa-sama, are you telling to let us overlook him trying to hand over information about the Organization’sguests to crime syndicates? .That is right. Yes.It is as Ichikawa-sama imagined. I think that Shirasaka house’s judgement to rescue Mr. Sousuke is not well. Mr. Sousuke will be Punishedby our hands but.will the root of evil end in the future? However.Even if the Shirasaka house confront us directly, there will be people who insists to rescue Mr. Sousuke coming. What can we only do is to take urgent defensive measures. .Yes. We’ve taken custody of Maika-san under those circumstances. .Do you understand? There’s an old saying The cornered mouse bites For a small Organizationsuch as ourselves absolutely need a considerate preparedness when fighting a noble family like Shirasaka-sama. However.we won’t let our Organizationcollapse because of Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke. We will do everything to defend it. .Yes. The stage of our discussion has already gone far enough. Shirasaka house has already began moving. I think you will know if you contact them. .No Of course.We would like to receive Ichikawa-sama’s cooperation. But.I don’t intend to receive your answer right now. Ichikawa-sama, are you home right now? Then.I will forward you a file on the matters I’ve just told you about. Please confirm it with your own eyes. Video evidences of Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke’s past with prostitution, rape, abduction and confinement crimes he has committed. As well as Director Yamazaki who’s under Ichikawa-sama. You can check those materials first then analyze on your future responses. .Yes. Then, I will contact you once again after an hour. .That is right. There’s no way I will be able to do that for someone as wise as Ichikawa-sama. If ever Ichikawa-sama conducts a hostile movement on us within an hour.We will be uploading Director Yamazaki who’s under Ichikawa-sama’s company’s illegal act. The first trigger of the scandal will become Ichikawa-sama’s place.with that said, please take note of that. .Yes? .Maika-san? I’m not so foolish to use my trump card first. I myself think that Maika-san is a very lovely young lady. I sincerely pray for her safe return as much as possible. .Yes. .I’m going to give the phone to Maika-san then
