.!
Nei pulls my arm.
Ah, no no. I have to give way to the next people. We return to our seats.
.That woman’s watching
Margo-san’s talking about.the new director, Asami?
Yeah, she’s looking at us.
Well.we’resuspicious peopleafter all!
Nei mutters.
The petite glasses woman is watching us. We have to outsmart this lady tokidnapRuriko.
.My eldest son died in a foreign land. And now, my second son has passed away before me, his father.
When the incense burning ended.Jii-chan greets the mourners.
No matter what the reason is.there is no replacement for lack of filial piety
Then, Jii-chan talks about memories with Kouzuki Shigeaki.birefly described Shigeaki’s achievements in Kouzuki group.
Seeing this many people see him off.I think my son is very happy
Actually.most of the mourners have come for Jii-chan.
One of the leading houses in Japan, Kouzuki house.since this is Kouzuki Shigetaka’s son’s funeral, there would be this much people coming. There’s not a tenth of the attendees are Kouzuki Shigeaki’s own friends and acquaintances.
.Lately, I’m being worn out. I won’t be doing it now but.I think of retiring from the position of the president of Kouzuki group during the shareholder meeting next year!
The entire hall becomes noisy.
As for replacement.I recommend Shiba Okitachi-kun. He’s already obtained the approval from the board of directors!
Kouzuki Shigetaka’s intention to retire from the economic world.this will be a big article appearing in tomorrow’s newspaper
By the way, Yoshiko, the girl next to me.there have been circumstances so far but, she’s my eldest son, Kouzuki Shigeharu’s memento. My granddaughter
At that moment.
Ruriko cries out loudly. Yoshiko-san’s no longer Ruriko’sattendant
I’ve raised Yoshiko similarly as Misuzu and Ruriko, as daughters of Kouzuki house. Everyone, please receive her .Yoshiko
Yoshiko-san bows expressionlessly.
She didn’t speak a word. Normally, she would be unwilling to be presented like this. Ruriko’s crying violently. However, the hall’s still shaken by the aftermath of Jii-chan’s retirement declaration. There’s not much who pays attention to Yoshiko. Rather, groans had spread towards relatives.
Then that means.if I marry Yoshiko, I’d can become a successor of the head family?
Kouzuki Satosohi.you’re too loud
You idiot, call herYoshiko-sama from now on!
Look, Kouzuki Souji’s angry.
Everyone, thank you for coming for my son today. He was a bad son but.I loved him. Really.what a pity. Miserable. Friends, please don’t forget about him. Please.
Jii-chan speaks frankly his emotions.
But, most of the mourners didn’t notice. No, that is why Jii-chan’s telling the truth.
Shigeaki.prefers to drink Cognac. I won’t drink Cognac until I die. He can no longer drink Cognac.and yet, why am I allowed to drink?
This is Jii-chan’s punishment to himself.
No.even whiskey and brandy would be cut off too. All of the liquor Shigeaki loved!
I see light glitter in Jii-chan’s eyes.
Thank you for coming today!
Then.thefuneral ceremonyends.
The hearse is prepared outside the venue.
Jii-chan and Ruriko, the bereaved families and relatives.after that, the friends who really knew Kouzuki Shigeaki gave their last farewell. The coffin’s transported. With matching funeral music. Kouzuki Souji, Subaru siblings, Kouzuki Satopshi.ah, Kouzuki Kenshi’s there too. The men of Kouzuki clan are carrying the coffin. Then.coming from the stage.to outside
Yo-chan, hide
Nei said
It would be troublesome if that guy finds you!
Ah, Kouzuki Kenshi?
True, he’s troublesome
Or rather, it’s about time we start moving
Margo-san tells me.
Eh.Yes?
The venue’s on the most confused state now.the new director, Asami would be concentrating on sending Kouzuki-san from here.
.Yeah.
Jii-chan would be moving to the crematorium along with the coffin.
Let’s get out of that exit there while we have time. Seki-san’s waiting over there
.Seki-san?
Nei and I will be picking up Iwakura-san. The meetup is planned at the crematorium but.depending on Asami-san’s attitude, we might go to the shop where they end their abstinence
Margo-san said.
Anyway.don’t panic or hurry. Let’s just pretend we’re going to the toilet.and head there slowly
The coffin goes through our side.
Yo-chan.give Misuzu and others my best regards!
Nei smiles.
This time, it’s my turn to be jealous!
.I
Okay.let’s start the operation!
Margo-san said and pushed my back.and I stand up from the seat.
The venue’s concentrated on the coffin’s transport. I walk normally.and head to the exit Margo-san pointed. Ah, Michi from the stage is watching me. Misuzu’s preoccupied trying to stop Ruriko from crying. Yoshiko-san’s looking down. Jii-chan’s gazing at the coffin.
.I’ve been waiting
When we head out of the exit.Seki-san’s waiting.
Come, hurry.we’re going with my car
Err.where?
I ask.
I’m amazed.obviously to the crematorium
Crematorium?
Anyone but the relatives can’t go there.
Just now.Kouzuki security service guards are on their way
.What?
We’re breaking through.we’ll infiltrate beforeKakka, Misuzu-sama, or Ruriko-sama arrives
.I see.
It would be strange for me to go to the crematorium together with Jii-chan if I’m not from Kouzuki house, but. Then, we’ll go ahead and get inside the venue.
I’m making the arrangements so.anyway, let’s go
Seki-san trotters and heads to the parking lot.
.Me too
It’s okay, the new director, Asami-san is only paying attention to Kyouko-san’s disciple, Margo-san. Margo-san will be restraining her well
I’m just a high school student boy. The other party won’t be paying attention to me.

Chapter 391
Chapter 391. Vanishing in
.This is my car
Seki-san’s car today is a big black car.
A fancy sports car won’t do since it’s coming to a funeral work. But, it’s still bigger than thought, ceremonious.it looks old though.
Is this an American car too?
Yes, 1974 Dodge Charger SE.though, that’s just the exterior The insides are swapped with a different one. The engines and suspensions, all of it
Seki-san smiles proudly
I was wondering whether I want to buy the sister car Chrysler Cordoba, but.this car has come out on famous American action movies in the past.1 2 Therefore, I got this one
I see.this big car seems to be powerful in action movies Steve McQueen.you don’t know him right? Sorry It’s fine, he’s an old actor after all. McQueen’s got a movie namedBullitt .there’s a scene where the hero chases this car with the first Mustang. Though he was chased, somehow, he’s so impressed that he liked it. I also have a Mustang but.it’s the second generation ofMach 13 Furthermore, it’s has lemon yellow and black stripeEleanorcolor so I can’t take that today. Besides, Mach 1still has the original interior .Err
Next time, I’ll show you a real car. I also have a copy of McQueen’s movie so let’s watch those together.
Saying that.Seki-san blushes.
Ah.I don’t mean that we have to do it just the two of us. The other girls can join in too
Ah, okay. Got it
Right.
It’s not fun to watch a movie alone with me, right.
Anyway, get in
Seki-san takes the driver seat.
I take the passenger seat.
No, hide in the back seat. There’s a blanket there, cover yourself with that
