Michi said.
I see. If he continues his quick attacks with abnormal movements, his stamina will come back to him sooner or later.
If I get tired before him, Anya can just come back and switch with me
Therefore, Edie didn’t attack together with Anya.
You’re really calm
I said.
That’s obvious. He’s not someone who’ll make us panic at all
She smiled.
It is as Michi said. He was not serious. Really, he only looks like someone who’s fighting women with a playful attitude
Edie also felt that old man Dai Grepher wasn’t willing to hurt people.
Well, if there were three other people with him, that would be worrying
In short.
Edie and Michi,
They both don’t think of old man Dai Grepher as a threat.
He’s an opponent they can drive away if they fight calmly.
Seeing old man Dai Grepher come down from the propaganda truck Endou’s riding.
I’m the only one who thought This is dangerous.
Then that means.
Old man Dai Grepher appeared just to scare me
It was only to put mental pressure on me.
In that case, everything Endou’s done just to target me.
To shake up my mind.
Minaho-neesan
I spoke to the ceiling.
You’re listening, aren’t you? Nee-san
Minaho-neesan should be back from Kyoto.
Katsuko-nee waited for Minaho-neesan before coming to school.
If that’s the case, she should be watching us from the mansion.
What is it?
Minaho-neesan’s voice comes from the speaker.
Minaho-neesan brought Endou in that car, right?
Minaho-neesan.
I didn’t drive that propaganda car though
I know that already.
Anyway, it must be under Minaho-neesan’s instructions, right? You made the plan and even hired old man Dai Grepher
I thought.
Yes
Minaho-neesan replied immediately.
By the way, I had Neko-san drive the car. She also made various arrangements. She’s the one who deceived Endou-kun
Neko-san. One of Kudou-papa’s freelancer.
You know, I was in Kyoto, so I wasn’t able to fill in the details myself Where’s Iwakura-san in this?
I was still doubting Iwakura-san’s involvement.
I introduced her to a temporary customer. I just want to make sure she doesn’t get in my plans
Wait, Kuromori’s brothel hasn’t reopened yet.
I’m lending Yukiyo to another prostitution ring I know, Yukiyo needs to vent out herself from time to time. I don’t want the same thing from May happening again
Minaho-neesan said.
I didn’t tell you any of that, I’m sorry
Iwakura-san isn’t in the school right now.
But why? Minaho-neesan?
Why keep this a secret from us?
It’s about time we move on to the next stage
Next stage?
It’s been four months since our family was established. It’s nearly a month since you started selling bread in the school, right? Yeah I really wanted a bit more time, however,
There’s no time?
Is it related to the events in Kyoto?
An ordinary company has only a one month trial period. It’s a bit fast bit, I wanted you to have the opportunity to look at yourself once more
One month trial period.
Right, Katsuko-nee said that. Saying that you’ll understand the atmosphere in one month after starting work Yes. It’s not yet a month but, it’s about time you’re seeing various things after actually making bread and selling it at school, right?
That’s.
Perhaps, Minaho-neesan’s heard of this earlier, but I’ve reflected on it. I’ve been overthinking about only selling the product that I make little to no efforts on making it a business It’s inevitable. You just started
Minaho-neesan said.
But all I did was do what Katsuko-nee tells me, without knowing anything about working on a shop or selling products, and in addition to that, Katsuko-nee is still unfamiliar with business, I didn’t see that she’s also feeling uneasy I was so useless. But you now know, right? That’s all okay But, I feel miserable. Minaho-neesan. After all, I only look at what’s in front of me! I was already doing my all with what I see in front of me! That’s not okay at all! Yes, it’s good that you notice it now
Minaho-neesan speaks in a soft voice.
Minaho-neesan, could it be that you know this since before?
That I was only depending on Katsuko-nee, being useless.
I do, of course If that’s the case, why didn’t you tell me sooner? Oh? it was actually fast that you noticed it at this stage
Fast?
After all, your one month trial period just ended
Minaho-neesan?
Both you and Katsuko tried it out for a month, you were accustomed to making and selling bread, so you had the time to think and realized various things, didn’t you?
Is that so?
Of course, if I told you this right after the summer holidays were over, before the one month, you’ll make quicker success in business, however that won’t become your flesh and blood
Our flesh and blood.
At first, both you and Katsuko were making bread as scheduled and planned to sell it. Katsuko’s also teaching you how to make bread one by one, and she has a lot of work as there’s a necessity for a large number of products Yeah. I could just teach you to do this to make your business succeed, this makes more progress, you need to do this to gather the attention of your customers, but you’re already at your limit from your first experiences, right? If I teach you what you should do, you won’t have time to think, you’ll only do what is instructed without questioning it. But that won’t be a useful experience for you Experience. If you’re opening up your shop then you have to think, try out, fail, feel shame, you must have experience in negative memories. If you only follow someone’s instructions, you’ll remain an employee, your efforts will be wasted. You own the shop If all I do is follow Katsuko-nee’s instructions, all I’m doing is being an employee.
Katsuko-nee alone is enough on baking and selling the products.
Katsuko-nee also just keeps on guiding me, not trying to sell the product with her own hands on the storefront.
That was because of Katsuko-nee’s insecurity who left the school halfway.
If we really want to sell our products to the students of the school, we should feel the reaction of the customers when we sell it.
There are so many things you won’t know unless you go to the shop floor.
Katsuko-nee and I were lacking effort for our own shop. We didn’t become managers. We were naive.
Don’t feel sad from every single failure. A lot of things in this world can’t be understood unless you have experience on it
Minaho-neesan said.
I’m glad that you noticed it in just one month. Besides
Hmm?
How was your month? Do you want to continue? Do you feel like going on with your job as a baker?
I.
I’ll do it, this is all I have
Minaho-neesan
That’s not all you have. You can continue your high school life, go to college, and decide your future while taking your time No, I’ve made my decision. I’ll become a baker I see. That’s your answer at the end of the month
Minaho-neesan says that from my answer.
Well, okay, I think it’ll change as time passes I won’t change Is that so? Then I’ll ask again for the third month. But anyway, do you feel like you’re physically fatigued? Or that you’re not suited for the job? I’m okay
I mean, I feel like working silently in the bakery is suited for me.
Although I can’t sell them.
Anyway, you don’t have to rush. All you can do is take it easy, step-by-step
Minaho-neesan said.
Katsuko, as for doubling the production starting next week
She even heard of that.
Yes, Ojou-sama? Don’t increase his workload more than what he has now
