When you get off the care, look at the back of the Maserati.I think the transmitter would be under the bumper so peel it off

Margo-san tells me.

What would I do after peeling it?

You can just throw it away. There will be a pedestrian that would chase you anyway

.I see

Okay.I’m stopping

Margo-san stops the car at the big intersection on the main street.

No, she just stopped normally in accordance to the signal

Then.good luck!

Yes. Michi.make sure to have yourself checked up Certainly.Master

Michi nods with a serious face.

Nee-san to.see you later

Sure. See you later Yo-chan!

Nei smiles at me.

Margo-san.take care of the rest

You too, take care.

I get off the car.

Go at the back of Maserati. I look under the car. .There’s one. True, there’s a small machine sticking in. I grabbed it and took it off the car. I show it to Margo-san and others through the back window. Nei-san waves at me.

.Dododododouu!

The Maserati confirms that the signal has changed.

And it drives off, leaving me. I run to the side walk in a hurry. I stick the transmitter to the guardrail. I look around. Oh.there’s a Honda Showroom. There’s a banner sayingCongratulations for victory! I don’t get it but it seems that the Honda’s car won the race. I turn around. There’s a car tailing us. The blue car parked on the side. Three men in suits come down from the inside. Oh.those guys are in charge of tailing me. .Well fine. With the Honda building behind.I go down to the subway entrance.

I bought tickets and head to the subway home without any problems.

It’s holiday so there’s not a lot of people. Ah, there’s a mirror here.

I pretend to casually peek into the mirror and look at the back.

Yeah.the tail’s following.

I’ll guide them to the mansion.

They’re chief Tanizawa’s underlings anyway. They knowKuromori’smansion so there’s no problem if I take them there. I didn’t make stopovers. Still.I take care not to meet any acquaintances. Chief Tanizawa hasn’t confirmed my identity yet.

.Hm?

Such words float in my mind.

.Huh, huh, I thought.

.What?

My true identity?

I look at the mirror again.

The mirror reflects me.

It looks a bit tired.

There’s only been hardships since last ngiht. A forced a distorted smile.

Ha.it’s the usual dull face.

Yeah.but, this is.my face. This is.me

.Haa

I leak a big sigh.

Get yourself together, me.

Don’t misunderstand. There’s a lot of girls around me now. Everyone wants me. All of them are beautiful, talented and charming girls. People like Minaho-neesan and Margo-san and others help me. They’re truly people with abilities. Just because I’m surrounded by those people. Doesn’t mean that I’ve become amazing.

I’m much weaker than Margo-san or Michi.

I’m dumber than Nei and Misuzu. I’ve got no charm like those girls.

Look at the mirror.

There’s a miserable face of a miserable boy.

This is me.

I was abandoned by my parents, a normal high school boy.

A worthless existence. Remember that you’re weak. Don’t forget it.

I am myself.

.Yeah

The train will arrive shortly.

The broadcast announcement comes from the platform.

Reconfirming of how small I am, I felt relief. I don’t care about the tail anymore. I’ll sleep on the train home. Speaking of which, I’m a bit sleepy.

.Doudododouu!

Entering the subway to home.

Oh.it’s empty. I can sit anywhere. When the door opened, I sat at the corner of the wagon. Then.I closed my eyes.

From the subway to JR.

Then, to the private railway. From the private railway to bus.

On the way back to the mansion, I was asleep most of the time.

Once I get to the desired station, I get off in a hurry. I was ignoring my tail.

From the bus stop all the way to the mansion.

Then, I noticed.

They tail has no blood thirst.

There was a sense of urgency when I was chased by Viola’s subordinate. I don’t feel that fear. Therefore, I was able to doze off.

Then that means?

Ah, Margo-san fooled me?

The people behind me aren’t tail.

.They’re escorts. Chief Tanizawa’s being fussy with Jii-chan. He ordered his subordinates to escort us.

I was Misuzu’s partner after all.

Of course.it’s a big help.

The transmitter is out of the question, but. Chief Tanizawa’s not doing anything offensive.

.Then that means.

Margo-san didn’t let me off the Maserati to reduce the number of the tail.

.She made time for me to be alone. A time to spend alone, slowly.

I had been with someone all this time.

If ever I encounter any trouble.Chief Tanizawa’s subordinated would help me.

Ah.That’s no good, me.

I’m still dressed up in front of the girls.

I can’t sleep unprotected in the car earlier. In front of them. I’m always nervous when I feel their gaze.

Margo-san knows that.

So she let me alone to have some time to refresh.

.Haa

I’m still not good enough.

Beyond the street, I see the small hill where the mansion is.

When I arrive there.I’ve got to concentrate once again.

Yeah.I feel like it’s not enough.

I stopped for a moment. I bought a cola from the roadside vending machine.and drink it. The carbonic acid cools off my eyes.

.Okay

I slapped my cheeks.

Get yourself together.me!

Now, let’s go!

I start walking to the mansion once again.

I have to go back as the man of Kuromori.

Chapter 360. Two confinement rooms.

.But.

Thinking about it, isn’t this my first time to enter themansionthrough the entrance? I always come in via car. When I go to school with Megu, it’s always on the backdoor. .Err. How do I get in? Since I’m being tailed, I want to come in right away, but. For the time being, I head to the front of the iron gate. Oh.there’s a doorbell in here. Anyway, I pushed the switch.

.Push

.Yes?

I hear Katsuko-nee’s voice from the speaker.

That alone makes me feel relieved.

Oh.it’s me

Somehow, that’s uncool but I can’t think of any other reply.

Yes.I’m watching

.Oh

I don’t know where but there’s a surveillance camera.

I’m opening it now.okay, come in

The iron door clicks and automatically opened itself.

Ah, thanks

I enter the ground and the door closed automatically.

It’s farewell with the tail from Kouzuki security service. Should I wave my hand to them? No, it’s better if I ignore them. There’s no need for both of us to be overly considerate.

I walk in the greenery and head towards the mansion.

I know it well since the cars go through here. .Yeah, the weather’s nice today. The sky’s blue.it’s neither hot nor cold. It’s an ideal May holiday. .My body feels quite fatigued. I want to lie down in the backyard and take a nap while sunbathing.

When I arrive at the entrance of the mansion.

The door opens. .Huh?

.Welcome back!

Appearing is Megu in a maid dress.

She looks at me bashfully. Katsuko-nee in matching maid uniform appears from her behind.

What do you think? Does it suit Megu-chan?

Katsuko-nee speaks proudly

.How is it, Yoshi-kun?

Yeah. It suits you amazingly!

Megu’s tall, and she has thin and long legs so that costume fits her.

Un. As expected, I’m not an Ojou-sama so this kind of work clothes suit me more than expensive dresses

Megu humbles herself.

That’s not it.that’s amazingly cute! Megu!
