Nei said.
I get why. But, demoting her from being my fiance only makes Megu feel desperate. I mean
I look for the words.
Megu knows what Ya-chan’s talking about. The reason behind it. She thinks that it’s fair. But, she can’t be convinced in her heart
Heart?
That’s right. She can’t accept it in her heart, and so the unpleasant emotion accumulates, and it refuses the logic
Yet, you all just push the reasoning that Megumi-chan doesn’t understand. That she doesn’t accept the logic
Margo-san said.
Furthermore, Minaho initiated this pressure on her
Yeah, I’m glad that Minaho wasn’t in a hurry. If Minaho herself rushed it, Megumi might’ve committed suicide already
That won’t happen. Minaho-neesan’s weak to Megu
I said.
Besides, Minaho-neesan knows moderation
Then, I turned around to Misuzu and Nei.
Ya-chan and Misuzu, you two are too smart. If you’re presented with the logic that says this is for the best, then you’d understand right away, but Megu or I am slow thinkers, we don’t get that right away. We don’t have Ya-chan’s comprehension speed Sorry, Danna-sama
Misuzu apologized.
No, of course, Megu is also at fault. Megu didn’t grow up within the family for the four months. Ya-chan’s right, she’s throwing out the harmony of the family
But.
But. That doesn’t mean that your approach is right. That only makes Megu reject it all, and if you leave her alone like that, she might commit suicide in despair
That’s
Megu hangs her head.
No, it’s also my fault for not understanding what’s happening and just watching it. Sorry. I’m not smart, and so I only realized what’s going on. We don’t know what’s going on at the moment. I’ve been thinking so desperately on what can I do for Megu at that place back then, but My power to understand is only so much,
I see.
That’s why Margo-san,
They left Edie to push the brakes when needed.
She knows that Edie can judge whether the state is going just right.
I really am useless
I muttered. Then Edie took my hand.
You’re not. If you feel like you are, then make use of that as experience and become better
Edie.
That applies to you Misuzu and Nei as well. It’s okay to make mistakes. I mean, no human doesn’t make mistakes. Even making the same foolish mistakes because of some attempt is also natural. That’s how you experience life That’s right. Nei. Misuzu-san. You thought that it’s for the better, weren’t you? You weren’t acting out of malice, and so, even if you fail, it’s okay. You can do better next time
Margo-san said.
However, if you make too big of a mistake, then it will leave a scar. Therefore, sorry, but we sent Edie to you to observe what you’re doing
The relationship between Megu and the family has to be protected from breaking down.
But, I still don’t understand why Megu-chan didn’t get it. What should we really do? Why is it that Megu-chan and I got both stubborn
Nei speaks with a serious look on her face.
Margo-san;
You can’t change her outlook
She smiled.
Recently, I’ve been teaching Agnes and Mao-chan chess
Chess?
Oh, the European Shogi.
And so, I taught them how to move the pieces and the rules
The youngest two?
Then, the next day; I surely thought that the two are already playing chess, no, I was sure that they can play it, but I was wrong
Margo-san laughed.
Those girls made a new game for themselves instead of following the rules I told them the day before
Huh?
I taught them about the king, queen, knights, castle, the ordinary parts in chess. But, Agnes and Mao-chan started making their new pieces
New pieces?
They named each as President, Train staff, partimer, public hall, and such
what?
If I recall, they also named some as stuffed toy, knife, Shou-oneechan’s car. Then, they decide the moves of each piece. For example, the cheetah can move forward three tiles and back by two
eeh?
When I explained that In chess, it simulates a war, and so, one has to be gallant, then they started using poison gas, bossy commander, or attack pieces, but
Oh, that one’s from the archive, Nora Kuro
I said.
Our library is filled with a huge collection of Manga which the previous prostitutes left behind.
No, I think Norakuro was a gift from the customers of Jii-chan’s age.
I see. Then, I think the anime they watched with Nei also had an effect, what’s Reflex Gun?
I don’t know
What comic, what power?
Anyway, the small girls made some interesting thoughts. They looked at the game and didn’t follow the established rules, but instead, they made a new set of rules and played with it
Margo-san said.
If Misuzu and Nei were given a chessboard and pieces, then I’m sure that you two would play with the rules of chess. Perhaps, you’d go decently well, and get strong over time. But
The two look at Margo-san.
You don’t know how those who made new rules feel, and you can’t imagine it either
Margo-san speaks harshly, but she’s smiling gently.
You’ll only follow the rules given and think that it is the correct way to play, and if you see someone playing with different rules, you’ll exclude them for being wrong
That’s.
You are logically correct. Reasonably correct. You play chess with chess rules. But, what will you do when someone who doesn’t know the rules comes in? You’d push your correct rules to them. But, if it’s just a game, shouldn’t you also play with other rules? Don’t you think that it’s too precious to let the children create new pieces, new rules, as they please?
Misuzu;
But, we’re a family, and the family has it’s rules
Is that really it?
Margo-san asks.
I know what’s your mistakes
That’s.
You were trying to guide Megumi-chan from above. You were forcing her to learn the lawful rules
You could say that, but
Nei refuses.
I think that you should become Megumi-chan’s friend before doing all that
Friend.
I played with Agnes and Mao-chan with the rules they made and the pieces they named. I also made a new piece for myself. I called it my Maserati, and it can move six forward and two perpendicular tiles. I run over them with the piece I made, but Margo-san laughed.
Do you think that both parties can reach an understanding unless you teach them the rules?
Chapter 766
Nei and Misuzu-san are too smart, and so you understand the rules of the game, and you can quickly think of methods to win against an opponent who follows the same rule
Margo-san said.
If you’re playing in a tournament where the players have to follow every single rule, then you’ll be the strongest in it. But, unfortunately, the world isn’t that easy
Misuzu looks gloomy.
Nei looks confused.
Edie’s just looking at the two of them with a smile.
To demonstrate, we’ve joined with Kouzuki-san on the case, but it is interesting. Nei who was at the hotel didn’t notice it, and Misuzu-san who wasn’t there understood
Right. Misuzu didn’t come out of the kitchen and stayed with Nagisa even when we came back.
She didn’t want me to see her look sad.
On the other hand, Nei returned with a nonchalant face.
After all, I know Grandfather
Misuzu said.
As for I’m the daughter of the Kouzuki house
Misuzu’s lived as the granddaughter of the head of Kouzuki house, Jii-chan.
It was beyond my expectations that Grandfather would decide like that
She heard everything that happened with the Yakuza in the hotel.
Minaho-neesan, Shou-neechan, or maybe Jii-chan himself, one of them contacted Misuzu.
What do you mean by that?
Nei turns to Misuzu questioningly.
Nei, you weren’t born from a distinguished family. You don’t know what impurity means
Margo-san smiled.
Impurity?
Yeah, back then, people with good standing never do dirty work. They let people with expertise do the dirty work. That’s not exclusive to Japan. It’s a common thing in this world
