Snatch. What a popular guy.
What about Francie?
Nei asks.
I hate living gays
Hoshizaki-san replied immediately.
Beautiful gays should just stay in 2D world
Err.
She’s much more interesting than we thought
Katsuko-nee smiles.
I thought that she’s just a cute girl, but she has quite the taste
Yeah, she feels like someone who lives with such vitality.
Then, Hoshizaki-san, since you really want to become friends with us, do you have the resolve?
Nei asks with a smile.
Well, yes. It’s a rare chance for me, and I’ll lose it if I don’t hold onto it What about Yo-chan and me? Well, as long as I can get along with the ladies of Kouzuki house, I’ll use you two without problems. Natou-san and Breadboy, and even the little sister
She’s bound by her oath, so Hoshizaki-san keeps on talking.
Oh, in the end, she thinks of Mana, Nei, and me as tools to get into Misuzu.
By the way, what do you think of me?
Nei asks.
A strange woman, you’re even repeating a year
She spits out words that could stab Nei.
Back then, when you were a delinquent, we hardly see each other in school, there was no harm, but recently, you were boasting your black hair, don’t you, Natou-san? i don’t boast my hair okay! You do. If boys approach you, then that’s a massive problem for me Why is it a problem? Because a delinquent before is now living a new life. That’s character development. Mine suffers!
Hoshizaki-san said flatly.
In the first place, Natou-san, you were the cutest girl in our school, and yet you repeated a year, you plan to compete with me, don’t you? No no no no
Nei shakes her head.
You definitely want to. That’s why I took your invitation thinking that I can get hold of your weakness
Right.
She really is interesting
Ruriko’s impressed.
It is my first time meeting someone who thinks this way What do you mean?
I ask Ruriko.
Well, she only looks at things right in front of her
What does that mean?
She only worries about her employment years ahead, also, bargain sales, celebrities, and lastly, the case of Nei-chan taking away her popularity. All of it is just momentary. There is no idea of seeing the bigger picture or thinking of long term. She’s very nearsighted with her goals I see.
Simply put, Hoshizaki-san doesn’t think anything deeply.
She just follows her desires that she felt on the spot.
That said, you all have only smart people surround you
Katsuko-nee tells Misuzu and Ruriko.
The Kouzuki branch families and even the executives, though they have self-righteousness, they all are smart, they consider everything on a long-term perspective, don’t they? If not, a large corporation like Kouzuki group won’t work Right, those people are calculating.
They think of which is better in long-term and act accordingly.
As one would expect, they don’t leave themselves to their momentary desires.
That’s why when Jii-chan introduced me as Misuzu’s partner, they accepted.
Even though they don’t like it.
They know that they shouldn’t go against Jii-chan’s decision right there.
They have to suppress their emotions.
The other executives will stab them from behind if they’re swept by their emotions. Genuine idiots disappear. That’s how a first-class organization works
Yeah, if it’s only on the level where Endou’s father operates, then,
There will be idiots who can’t suppress their emotions.
Grandfather’s school is an excellent place to train in a sense
Misuzu said.
Each of them is born from a blessed bloodline so they may act arrogantly but, when they receive guidance from Grandfather as a group, they keep looking at each other
If the Jii-chan’s students keep checking at each other, then they need to learn how to control their emotions.
Oh, so that’s why the factions are necessary.
If they glare at each other like that, they’ll learn how to hold back. Both of them.
But I think there are more ordinary children like Hoshizaki-san. Only a percent of the population have made decisions in the future while still in middle or high school and is already working hard building a long-term plan Katsuko-nee’s right
Well, there are already students who are starting activities aiming to become professional sportsmen and artists.
However, most of the students don’t think of the future.
No, they can’t. It can’t come into their minds.
On the contrary, they already are doing their best about the immediate task and everything before their eyes.
Just like Hoshizaki-san.
Right, even I couldn’t have thought of anything beyond April
My father disappeared.
`Alone in the house, abandoned.
I felt hopelessness on everything in this world.
I see, now, I have decided to become a baker, resolved to protect my family, it all happened from the circumstances
I’m also one of the students who only see what was in front of me.
From the start, I’m different from Misuzu and Ruriko who shoulder the burden of Kouzuki house.
I’m different from Michi who’s already a professional bodyguard, succeeding the Kudou style.
Me too, I was a high school student, and I haven’t thought of the future. I was just thinking of having fun every day
Katsuko-nee was kidnapped in her first year and turned to a prostitute.
Me too, until we moved to the US
Nei went to America due to her father’s job transfer and her family’s killed by a criminal.
Well, Agnes-chan and I are the same. The common sense of this world is just turned over for us
Mana said.
Mana fell into a fate where she has to abandon her past as Shirasaka Maika.
Agnes just got out of the basement where she was confined in since birth.
Hey, Hoshizaki-san
Nei asks.
Earlier, Hoshizaki-san was talking about wanting to go to a decent level university Yes, that’s my plan Christian or English? I don’t care either way. Even undergraduate will do. Next year, I’ll check my skills and make a decision by then
Hoshizaki-san said.
Are you okay with that? Doesn’t matter, you know, some universities have high evaluation only for a specific department, right? Like law school or University picks only from the English department. I need to think of that when looking for a job As for jobs, what kind of company does Hoshizaki-san want to enter?
Nei asks with a serious look.
Hmm, I still don’t know. I’d like to go to a known reasonable company but, ah, IT or logistics are a bit no You don’t have anything specific in mind That’s obvious, I just have to use my time as a third year in college to think about getting hired for real! I don’t need to make decisions now
Hoshizaki-san said and laughed.
Natou-san, you talked about martial arts business or something stupid earlier, but I think you should think of your future seriously! That wasn’t funny even as a joke!
Hoshizaki-san thinks that Nei and Margo-san’s plan was a joke.
Oh, is it about Margo-chan’s overseas trip?
Katsuko-nee cuts in.
For now, we have 100 million yen ready as current funds. Kyouko-san’s also talking about a promoter in Las Vegas, the plan is to move during winter this year, right? Yeah, I also invested 10 million yen from my account
Nei said.
Nei also receives a reward for the jobs she and Margo-san did for Minaho-neesan.
She decided to invest some of those.
Shou-oneesan’s contacting local subsidiaries from the Kouzuki group. At first, the plan was to provide money by ourselves, but it seems that she found a sponsor already
