Reika asks, Seki-san.
It only saysMr..we would immediately know if we call it
No way.is it directly to Cesario Viola?
Either way.Takagi-san, you’re the traitor
Seki-san said.Takagi’s father hangs his head.
.No way
Takagi-san? No, but. If the sentence of the mail is true then there’s no question
The executives turned noisy
.Father
The son is also shocked dropping his shoulders behind his father.
Speaking of which. Indeed, Takagi’s father belongs into the rising faction but he tries to get involved in a conversation with us. That’s a strange indication. I see.so it was him? Jii-chan said that too. The traitor would be in the rising faction.
Of course, we won’t let you faint.Takagi-san will be interrogated in a separate room
.Yeah
We have to ask his connection with Viola somehow.
Anyway, take her away from the other executives.Kudou-san
Seki-san looks not at Michi but the mother.
.what?
Kudou-mama’s completely shocked.
I’d like you to contact chief Tanizawa and tell him to prepare a room for interrogation. A floor that’s not on this room. Also.it’s better for the executives to move away from this room. This room’s position has already been identified by the enemy yes
Kudou-mama hurries to the wall intercom.
Chief Tanizawa seems to be in touch with the hotel’s business line. Meanwhile, Reika pulls up Takagi’s father.
If you run then I’ll crush your limbs one by one. Okay?
Pounding the cane of death to the floor.Reika restrains Takagi’s father.
Uhm.can I go with father?
Takagi Fuuta asks Seki-san
I can no longer stay with everyone else!
If his father is the traitor then he can no longer be with the other students.
He have judged so.
.Right. You’re going to come too
Seki-san answers.
Now then.for the time being, our mission in this room is over.
Seki-san smiles at me.
Michi nods. Reika also smiles at me. .But Somehow, I feel it’s lacking. My heart is still restless.
.What’s wrong?
Feeling worried from my reaction.Seki-san peeks at me.
No.somehow I feel unpleasant
Hearing my words.Michi searched theQiinside the room again.
Reika also looks at the director’s faces while holding Takagi’s father.
.Something’s not refreshing?
Looking back.Margo-san and Nei-san smile at me.
.Did both of them notice something?
.I feel like something’s lacking
I answered.
Hmm.what’s lacking?
.I don’t know
I answer Margo-san.
I don’t know why but I feel like I haven’t solved anything yet. I feel like we’re overlooking something big.
Well, it seems that your intuition’s come to work.Yo-chan’s made some progress!
Nei-san smiles brightly
As expected.there’s an oversight.
What? No way.You can’t even notice something so simple?
Yukino who’s at the back laughs at my troubled face.
Yeah, then tell me
When I say that.Yukino
.Since when did you assume that there’s only one traitor?
.Ah
.I see There’s still a possibility that there are more traitors.
It can’t be helped. Kouzuki-san deliberately made you believe that
Margo-san said.
But.think again carefully. Kouzuki-san made you see a lot of things today.
.Yeah
Kouzuki house. Theprivate school The inside of Shirasaka house.
Using what you’ve gained from those.think once again
What to think?
Margo-san smiles.
.The traitor’s purpose
.Purpose?
What is the ultimate aim of the traitor? Do you think they’re trying to kill Kouzuki-san?
.Well
I don’t. If the traitor is among the executives, then he knows the firmness of chief Tanizawa and the full time guards.besides
.Besides what?
Margo-san laughs happily
If the top dies right now.Kouzuki group’s framework would collapse
Right.
They may aim at Misuzu or Ruriko but. There’s no single attack targeting Jii-chan directly
Then.what’s the traitor’s aim?
.That is
To kill all of the successors other than himself?
That idea comes to me.
The executives other than Jii-chan aren’t as protected as him. If I can kill only the executives, then I will kill Then, if only one survives. He’ll clearly take the top spot of the Kouzuki group from Jii-chan. Jii-chan is needed to inherit the position.
In short.the traitor’s target is?
The executives other than himself.Jii-chan’s successors, Ruriko and Misuzu and their parents.and the people with Kouzuki surname in theprivate school
He should be thinking of cleaning up all of those who can possibly be at the top of Kouzuki group other than himself.
Now then.Do you think that only Takagi-san would think and act that way by himself?
Nei-san’s word shocked me.
I know the cause of discomfort. With Takagi Fuuta’s father.I can’t see that he has a backbone to contact Cesario Viola to take over the Kouzuki house. Anyway.he’s very like a small guy. He’s not the type that plans and act according to his will.he’s the type that moves by someone’s instructions
You see.I’ve noticed something, can I say it?
Yukino said.
Yeah, say what you want. Everything is welcome
I said, Yukino.
You see, I’ve been watching these people from far away, having a bird’s-eye view. These people aren’t the same as the group of their children
That’s right, Yukino.
She’s been watching the state of people inside the room from near the door.
And yet.since earlier, that old man there and that old man over there have been exchanging eye signals occasionally They’re making strange eye contacts. Even though they’re from different groups.
Yukino points at the two people.
One of them is an already discovered traitor.Takagi’s father.one belonging to the rising faction. And the other one is.prince faction’s Tsunoda’s father.
.Tsunoda, you?
this is a misunderstanding.There’s no way I would oppose Kouzuki house! Right?
Tsunoda’s father desperately tries to dodge the suspicion.
Tsunoda-san.lend me your phone
Seki-san said.
Eh.why?
I’ll look at the contact history and addresses.I will check if Takagi-san has tried to send a mail to the sameMras Takagi-san .That is
Tsunoda’s frightened.
.There’s one! The same recipient. Or rather.he knows the man namedMr.
.Then this means
The lines connect inside my head.
Tsunoda is someone who’s also used by people. There’s no strong intention to become the ruler of all. The traitor’s boss.is another one.
.I see
There’s a conclusion that comes up inside my head.
Jii-chan said that didn’t he.people who try to stand on top of the organization don’t dirty their own hands.
Seki-san looks at my face then asks.
.What do you mean?
The traitor’s boss doesn’t need to bother coming here. He’ll just let his minions do everything and stay in a safe place
.Therefore
Leaving this place to Takagi’s father and Tsunoda.and he’ll be absent himself
The traitor’s boss is.Kouzuki Noboru
I said.
Chapter 302
Chapter 302. Behind the back
Why do you think that Kouzuki Noboru is the traitor’s boss?
Margo-san asks me,
.Well
I look at the executives.
As expected.I think that it is impossible unless you’re a person with the resolve to take over a famous house with history and tradition like Kouzuki house
.Yeah
A man who’s satisfied being someone’s vassal will not take over the lord. Because it would be easier to live as the number two or three who just borrow the power of their lord.
Therefore.the prince faction don’t fundamentally betray their head. They have already acquired the status by receiving the prestige of the Kouzuki family already
