Ruriko said.
I see, people are different
Mana?
I see. Mana’s also born from a decently wealthy family.
By the way, what about Natou-san?
Hoshizaki-san smiles suddenly.
What, me?
Nei’s surprised.
You’re asking me who I’ll marry?
Hoshizaki-san laughs.
No, not that, your future plans
Nei.
Ah, well once I graduate, about this winter, I’ll be going to and from Japan and the US Huh? What’s that? What?
Hoshizaki-san takes the bait.
Her tennis skirt flips again, her white panties are visible.
You know, I was a returnee, right? Also, there was an international student here who graduated last spring, Margo Starkweather-san, do you remember her? Yeah, she’s close with Natou-san Yes, that one, I call her Margo-oneechan, I’m about to help with her business in the US Business?
Hoshizaki-san’s surprised to hear the word business coming from a mouth of someone in the same age as her (actually, Nei’s a year older)
Margo-oneechan’s a mixed martial artist. Women’s mixed martial arts sports won’t click in Japan though It’s popular in America? Not really, but, the plan is to make it grow as a big business in the neighborhood. Well, it’s in America so it should be decent. If promoters from Las Vegas make a move, it’ll be a big business I see. I don’t get it, but that’s amazing
Hoshizaki-san looks a bit confused.
She can’t believe Nei’s story.
The first step is to win a big match in America and when we come back to Japan with that honor in hand. That means we’ll be nowhere in sight by spring next year. You know, Japan likes that, don’t they? Those who get recognition in the foreign countries are swarmed by the media Is that Margo-san’s plan? But, you need connections in Japan, don’t you think? Isn’t the media strict about it?
Hoshizaki-san said while smiling wryly.
Nei’s plan seems to be just a dream in her mind.
Yeah, we do have connections
Nei said nonchalantly.
Wait, no way. Hoshizaki-san, do you think it was a coincidence that Nikita-san was with me until earlier?
Nei smiles.
Huh? Didn’t the director tell Natou-san to look after her since she’s looking around? Oh, so you believed that one. Hoshizaki-san, you’re surprisingly honest
Nei’s setting up the trap.
A trap for Hoshizaki-san.
You know, the organization Nikita-san’s fighting on the TV broadcast, they name themselves civil defense corps Eagle something-something, but do you know their parent company? Yeah, it’s the company Fujimiya Reika belongs to, right? If I recall, Kouzuki Security Service. It’s a security firm, isn’t it? I know at least the name of the companies on commercials
Their fights started during Yukino’s special program, then they had a surprise show during a soccer’s half-time or something. The TV broadcasts Rei-chan and Kyouko(or sometimes Anya’s) fight.
There’s no official explanation yet, but the internet discusses it as a new company’s promotional videos.
Therefore they believe it as such.
The Japanese government and the media ignores Rei-chan’s fight after all.
Therefore, they understand it as a private commercial.
Then, do you know about the family behind that company, Kouzuki?
Nei asks.
Err, it’s that, right? Kouzuki bank or something Yeah. The Kouzuki name shows up in the banks but, they’re one of the corporate groups that represent Japan. That Kouzuki house backs us up No way
Hoshizaki-san laughs.
Ah, you don’t believe me That’s a joke, isn’t it? I’m not joking
Nei’s acting silly.
Then, I have no choice, Hoshizaki-san. Let’s go to my house and play! I’ll show you the evidence! It won’t take that long!
Nei pulls Hoshizaki-san’s hand.
Wait, I can’t go right now Why? Because I’m in the middle of practice in the tennis club, I was just relaxing
Hoshizaki-san looks at her white tennis wear.
Ah, we’re fine, my house is just close to school Just close? Didn’t I say it earlier? I live in the house of the director. The school director’s house is just over there
Nei presses further.
It won’t take longer than 5 minutes. If we go there and back here, it would only take 10 minutes, there’s no problem But
Hoshizaki-san’s worrying
I have no choice you know! I can’t show you proof that we have Kouzuki-san’s backing unless I take you to my home But Don’t worry about anything! Donmai! Come with me!
Nei forcibly pulls Hoshizaki-san.
O-Okay, just for a while, okay?
Hoshizaki-san said.
Minaho-neesan should be watching that.
She should be cooperating with Nei’s plans.
5 Minutes later.
Nei and Hoshizaki-san are at the gate of our high school.
The cameras see the two girls.
Eh? Natou-san’s house is this way?
Hoshizaki-san’s still wearing her tennis clothes.
Yes, right, this way
Nei’s in her uniform.
The two of them are empty-handed.
I mean, I know that Hoshizaki-san left her bag and change of clothes in the club room, but.
Nei, are you sure that you’re going home empty handed?
By the way, Hoshizaki-san? What? Virgin?
Nei asks sharply.
what? Tell me? Why not? What about Natou-san? Me? I’m no longer a virgin? I’ve got experience
Nei shows a peace sign.
Oh, really? Yeah. I do have sex with him on a weekly basis. Oh, it’s the same guy I lost my virginity to, okay? I mean, he’s the only one I’m going to have sex with forever Ugh, Natou-san has a boyfriend?
Hoshizaki-san’s surprised.
Hm? Not my boyfriend, he’s got a girlfriend
Nei said calmly.
Huh? Why? Why? That’s how it is, so there’s no other choice Why do you have sex with that guy when he has a girlfriend? Well, he’s adorable, I like him a lot
Nei smiles happily.
Are you okay with that, Natou-san? Huh, is it that strange? I plan to give birth to his child. Maybe not now, but perhaps sometime later Well, it’s Natou-san’s life, so I won’t say anything else
Hoshizaki-san looks at Nei worriedly.
Natou-san, could it be that he’s fooling with you?
Nei laughs.
That’s not it! I often play pranks with him, and he would look surprised that you’d think he’s fooling you but, he never lies! He never wants me to hate him after all. That’s what’s so cute about him. I really like him. I ultra love him I see
Hoshizaki-san looks like she can’t understand
Then.
Bubuu!
A familiar Mercedes Benz drives to the front of the two.
Oh, there she is!
Nei pulls Hoshizaki-san’s hand and heads to the Benz.
Wait, what’s this? Natou-san? Huh? Didn’t I tell you? We’re going to my house That’s not what I’m asking But I told you that it’s five minutes by car
Nei laughs.
I didn’t hear anything about a car!
Hoshizaki-san said.
The driver’s seat opens.
What’s wrong? Is this a fight?
Rei-chan shows up.
Huh? Fujimiya Reika-san?
Hoshizaki-san’s surprised.
Rei-chan’s wearing her male clothing but without a coat.
Black slacks, white shirt, black vest.
Unlike her perfect British Gentleman clothing, it feels sporty and refreshing.
On top of that, Rei-chan even came down from her car, so her slender body shines in her black clothes.
In short, it looks really stylish.
Hello, are you Nei-chan’s friend?
Rei-chan smiles.
Yes, right! She’s Hoshizaki-san!
Nei introduces her
nice to meet you!
Hoshizaki-san’s nervous.
Interesting
Katsuko-nee mutters.
She didn’t have this kind of reaction when she met Nikita-san
Right, when she saw Anya this morning and lunch, she was backing off.
