yes.Err

Asami-san’s completely panicking.

Her head’s spinning around.

That’s enough, I’ll take over

After a moment, chief Tanizawa cuts off Asami-san.

Our priority is to takeKakkaand everyone to that store! All guards reassemble! Each group must monitor their surroundings! Don’t overlook any anomaly

Yes? Check all the cars left in the parking lot with your reserve team. Someone might’ve worked on the vehicles other than this! .Roger!

There are about five black-clothed men that run into the parking lot of the crematorium.

Sanada and Takahashi’s team will reexamine the inside of the shop over there. Kakka can’t enter until the safety’s confirmed. Hurry!

.Ha!

Ten more guards dashed towards the restaurant.

In the first place, there are too many guards in this place.Hamakita!

Yes! Your team will move this bus. We shouldn’t leave it on this road. Is there anyone who can drive a large bus? Me.and Yanagida Then transfer it to the parking lot of the restaurant,

ASAP

.uhm

Guard Hamakita doesn’t move lighting fast like the other guards.

.What?

What should we do about the people inside the bus?

Inside the bus is.the naked Iwakura-kaichou, still attacking the helpless Kouzuki Satoshi

She’s looking at the situation outside the bus interestingly.

The woman’s a prostitute or anything.she’s just hired to make a commotion. You won’t get any information from her

.I’d like the two insolent men to be handed to me. I’ll thoroughly punish them!

Kouzuki Souji shouts to chief Tanizawa on behalf of the young group.

Souji.do that late. We must eat first

But, Kakka! It’s still time for the dead Shigeaki.can we all talk about our memories about Shigeaki instead?

Jii-chan.says while holding the paulownia box in his hands.

i’m very sorry

Kouzuki Souji bows his head.

Tanizawa.look after Satoshi and Tsunoda. I don’t like to see their faces for a while

Roger.Hamakita, you two drive the cars of security service. Keep an eye on that woman. You don’t have to interrogate her. Wait for my arrival .Roger!

Guard Hamakita takes his own group to the bus.

Uwa, it stinks.what?

The black-clothed men who got on the bus noticed a foul odor.

It’s pee! Satoshi-chan said he wants to drink my pee !

Iwakura-kaichou laughs.

Don’t say that!

Kouzuki Satoshi’s completely worn out.he’s in low spirits.

But, you drank it didn’t you, Satoshi-chan?

.I drank it, I did!

What kind of play were they doing?

Chief Tanizawa who’s looking at the situation.

Hey, Asami-kun!

yes?

Asami-san who’s dispirited as the site command was taken away.got surprised when chief Tanizawa suddenly called her.

Keep the cars of Kouzuki house safe until the end of the meal

.Eh, Uhm? That bus can’t be used without cleaning it. Do you understand? Ah.yes. Bus.we’re going to charter the bus? You idiot.who cares if it’s a taxi or whatever. Ask each family how they want to return and call the necessary number of taxis. You can do that much, can’t you? Also, prepare taxi tickets

Chief Tanizawa looks at the people of Kouzuki house.

Everyone’s pay on their way back home would, of course, be paid by Kouzuki security service

Chief Tanizawa smiles, members of Kouzuki clan felt relieved.

How is it? Is there any abnormality in the surroundings?Mogi?

There’s none! Saito! There’s none! Kobayashi! There’s none! Kabashima! There’s none!

The guards from all directions reply loudly

Everyone, I’m sorry to keep you waiting. Then, let’s go. Formation, advance!

.Ha!

The guard in front starts walking

Then. let us go too

Seki-san tells Ruriko.

Then, she sends me a glance. I head towards Seki-san and Ruriko. I turn my back so my face won’t be seen by the students.

Come.we’re going

Seki-san calls me like it’s natural.

The guards from Kouzuki security service refers me to Seki-san’s assistant. Actually, I’m wearing the yellow collar from top elite’s assistants. Therefore, the guards don’t think of it as strange when I join up with Seki-san.

.Ruriko, let’s go

I whisper to Ruriko.

Yes, Onii-sama

She answers in a small voice.

Seki-san in front, then Ruriko and me. We retreat from Jii-chan and the guards.

Ufufu.it went well!

Nei joins up with us when Jii-chan’s parade was completely out of sight.

No, but.is this evenkidnapping?

I just took away Ruriko legally before everyone’s eyes.

It’s fine! It’s not that we’re antagonizing Kouzuki Ojii-chan!

Well, that’s true, but.

But, Seki-san.will you be fine?

About what? Well, if we take Ruriko like this.Seki-san would lose her position in Kouzuki security service!

If thekidnappingis exposed.it’ll be a problem.

It’s fine, I’ll be kidnapped by you guys as well

.What?

Look after me okay? I’m a hostage after all

Seki-san smiles at me.

.I see. Last night, thekidnappingplan Seki-san and Margo-san talked about is.

Kouzuki security service aside.I think that Ruriko-sama should be taken in a way Kouzuki clan won’t be suspicious of it. If not, the clan would heat up again you see?

Kouzuki house’s branch families are quite troublesome.

Those people didn’t notice that Ruriko-sama’s is kidnapped. If possible, forever.it turned out like this when we thought of that

Seki-san said.

In the first place.I was the one who proposed to use the bus but.what’s with that perverted girl?

Sorry! That’s our secret weapon. Iwakura Yukiyo-chan who’s a pink nuclear warhead!

Nei laughs.

Surprised? Well, you see.We thought that it would be the best to make Ruriko feel sick suddenly.

No, rather. it did affect everyone other than Ruriko

I’m more surprised than that.

Like Kouzuki Souji’s house who have people with strict morals.

Well.everyone thinks that they want to go out after the meal, at any costs

Seki-san said.

It’sKakka’sseat.furthermore, Shigeaki-sama has died, Yoshiko-sama’s recognized as a granddaughter, and it’s immediately afterKakkaannounced his retirement. Everyone from Kouzuki house would like to talk toKakkaby all means .I see.

The branch families of Kouzuki house are uneasy about their future.

In this situation.the only ones who can think of leaving early or not be attending the dinner meeting is only Ruriko-sama and Misuzu-sama

Whatever happens.Ruriko and Misuzu are Jii-cha’s granddaughters.

Their positions in Kouzuki house are unwavering. From now on, Yoshiko-san will be included.the branch families are in a fight on who’ll bring them as the palanquin. Ruriko’s got nothing to do with it anymore.

Seki-sama.please call meRuriko

Ruriko said

I was chased out of Kouzuki house. I’m now a property of Onii-sama. I’m a woman who has nothing to do with Kouzuki house anymore.

Is that so?

Seki-san looks at me.

Well, yeah.

I answered.

But, well.there’s also, an agreement betweenKakkaand Ruriko-sama, is there not? I have no concern about who’s the lower rank. I will still call youRuriko-samafrom now on

Seki-san smiles.

No.I now have fallen to a low-status. Being treated respectfully is beyond my position

.Haa

Ruriko.it’s about time you understand

.Yes, Onii-sama? You’re.still thinking that Kouzuki house members are better than others or that they’re great? .That is

Ruriko’ssocial position illusioninside must be destroyed.

Whether you’re the lady of Kouzuki house or my slave.Ruriko is Ruriko. Nothing changed

But, I’m just a helpless and worthless girl

Ruriko discovers her reality from the conversation in the waiting room at the crematorium.
