Chapter 492

Err, Agnes is…
She’s eating with Mao-chan and Nagisa .

「 Agnes 」
「 Yes, desuno? 」

Agnes turns to me .
She’s smiling

「 Does your stomach still hurt? 」
「 Yes 」

Agnes touches her lower abdomen .

「 You’ll be taken to a clinic soon 」
「 What about Papa? 」

Agnes looks up at me .

「 Is Papa coming too? 」

I

「 Sorry, I can’t go with you Agnes 」
「 I see, desuno 」
「 Yeah, Mana’s coming with you however 」

I look at Mana

「 It’s okay . Mana-oneechan’s coming with you . Also, Ikeda-sensei is a kind person 」

Mana smiles .

「 Agnes also knows Ikeda-sensei 」

Nagisa said .

「 Before, Ikeda-sensei comes to check up the mansion every week 」

Nagisa pats Agnes’ head .

「 In the brothel, it’s called medical examination 」

They’re checking if the prostitutes are healthy and not ill .

「 Agnes also have met her before 」
「 Oh, the doctor, that one! 」

Agnes seems to have remembered .
Since they’re acquainted, then there’s no problem .

「 Mao and I will accompany her to Ikeda-sensei . Don’t worry 」

Nagisa tells me .

「 That’s right, let’s go eat parfait on our way home 」
「 Parfait? 」

Agnes looks at Nagisa .

「 Yes, it’s a delicious food 」

Mana smiles .

「 Eh, Parfait? Let’s go eat Parfait! 」

Mao-chan takes the bait .

「 That’s right . We’ll do that on our way home after Agnes-oneechan finishes her checkup, okay? 」

The mother said . Mao-chan;

「 Eeh, A doctor? Uuuuuu 」

It seems that she dislikes doctors .

「 Mao doesn’t need to have a checkup . Only Agnes-oneechan needs it 」
「 That’s right . Mao-chan can wait with Mana in the car! 」

Nagisa and Mana convince Mao-chan .
Then, Agnes’s car will be:
Margo-san’s the driver and guard .
Edie will be a support guard .
Agnes herself .
Mana, Nagisa, Mao-chan . That’s settled .
Margo-san’s over there, so it’s okay for them to eat parfait at the family restaurant .

「 Papa, parfait’s delicious you know? 」

Oh, Mao-chan .

「 I have to go to another place 」
「 Eeeeh! 」
「 Have fun with Mana and Agnes . I’m sure it will be 」

I tell Mao-chan .

「 That’s right, we’re here too! 」

Mana in her Onee-san mode hugs Mao-chan warmly

「 Mana, take care of them 」
「 Okay, Onii-chan! 」

Seriously .
Everyone who has younger girls than themselves is working hard .
But, for the little sisters .
It’s not going well .
Nei had such a proud attitude, trying to become the greater elder sister, that’s why Minaho-neesan got angry at her .
Misuzu too, even when she’s interacting with the younger girls, she doesn’t interact with Nei or Margo-san .
She’s still awkward with Megu who’s a year closer to her .
Megu too, she’s not getting close to Michi and the two of Kouzuki house .
Megu, Katsuko-nee, and Nagisa grew up in the mansion, so they’re intimate, however…
I feel like I have to change this atmosphere in various ways .
The strengths and weakness are coming out inside the family .
There’s also the restraint and fight over leadership complicating things .
Is it okay to disperse the family at times like this?

「 Yo-chan, as for our group 」

Nei comes .

「 Shou-oneesan said that she’ll be on the second car 」

Second car?

「 Look, if Misuzu and Ruriko move, those watching from the outside will chase us, right? Or should I say that our group should attract as many people as possible to hide Kyouko-san’s movements, right? 」

Oh, Kyouko-san will take Shirasaka Sousuke and leave the mansion .
Later, it’s unknown where he would be thrown away .
Nobody must notice that Shirasaka Sousuke’s taken out of this mansion .

「 Therefore, we’ll be as flashy as possible . Rei-chan will drive the lead car, and Misuzu’s car will follow . Of course, the driver of that car will be Shou-oneesan 」

Yeah .

「 I’ll be riding Rei-chan’s car . Shou-oneesan’s car will have Misuzu, Ruriko, and Michi . Yo-chan, where will you ride? 」

I

「 Danna-sama will of course ride ours 」

Misuzu speaks from the side .

「 But you see, there’s only two on one car and yours will have four . Won’t it be tight if Yo-chan rides on yours? 」
「 It won’t be! 」

Misuzu replies immediately

「 I see . But you know 」

Nei continues .

「 Our primary objective for today is to support Kyouko-san and become a smokescreen, don’t let the people outside think of anything unnecessary, so we need them to chase after us without a second thought, right? 」
「 Err, what does that mean Nee-san? 」

I don’t get it .

「 That’s why, why don’t we have Yo-chan be on the same car as me, so they don’t make any strange misunderstandings? 」

Huh, why?

「 Since we’re the lead car, they’d think that Yo-chan and I are involved with Kouzuki security service, right? Then, if Misuzu, Ruriko, and Michi, a bodyguard is on the back, they’d think of it as a usual convoy, right? 」

Kouzuki house’s daughters are traveling, and Shou-oneesan’s subordinates are coming along .

「 That way, the people outside won’t have to think of anything else and just chase us 」

They won’t have doubts .

「 Uhm, Nei-oneesama 」

Misuzu speaks up .

「 It’s a rare opportunity so I would like the people from Kouzuki security service that Danna-sama is my husband 」

Huh?

「 Grandfather recognizes my relationship with Danna-sama already . Therefore, there’s no need to disguise Danna-sama as a person from Kouzuki security service this late 」

She says clearly .

「 Danna-sama will ride the same car as us . And, he’ll escort us properly . I’d like to have those who monitor us to see that 」

Misuzu looks at me .

「 If not, we won’t be able to live together 」

I see .
They won’t be monitoring for today only .
From now on, as long as I live with Misuzu, I’ll be exposed to the people’s eyes .

「 Please stay by my side at any time, in front of anyone 」

I have to resolve myself on that .

「 Ah, there’s that idea too 」

Nei replies with a bit malicious tone .

「 But, aren’t you overthinking it? Everyone isn’t that aware of Yo-chan yet! I think that he should be okay on the lead car with me! 」

Hey hey!

「 That is why we’re making them aware on this opportunity!!! 」

Misuzu speaks strongly .

「 In the first place, to think that Danna-sama’s not in our car? It looks like we’re fighting!! 」
「 Come now, I don’t care about that 」

Sparks fly between Misuzu and Nei .

「 Err 」

I

「 For now, I’ll ride on Misuzu’s car 」
「 Yo-chan!! 」

Nei’s taken aback .
Misuzu smiles triumphantly

「 Or should I say that what Nee-san is saying is going to be the opposite 」
「 Opposite? 」
「 If I’m riding with Misuzu’s car, it’ll stir up those monitoring us 」

I think .

「 No, some people may know about Misuzu and me at the theater . Everyone would be curious where the lady of Kouzuki house goes accompanied by a man 」

Misuzu never had a romance gossip until now .

「 There’s a lot of people who want to know the relation of the man going out with Misuzu to the future of Kouzuki house, right? 」

Misuzu and Ruriko are both candidates for the succession of Japan’s leading noble house, Kouzuki family .
They’d like to know more about my true identity .
Above all, they should be interested in where we’re going .
Shou-oneesan even brings Ruriko, the other candidate .
Members of Kouzuki security service too .
No, if it’s just employees, it doesn’t matter .
I think they’d like to know about this information .

「 They’d chase after us in curiosity that they’d ignore Kyouko-san’s car 」

Yeah .

「 That’s a good plan . Let’s go with that 」

Shou-oneesan comes close to us .

「 Reika and I will send fake information 」

With this, our role as a decoy is complete .

「 Then, where are we going? 」

Ah .

「 Huh, weren’t we going to a city hotel? 」

Nei asks .

「 Since we’re going to release Yo-chan from his daily life, we need a beautiful night view and a suite room 」

Hmm .

「 You mean we’re staying on the same hotel as Kyouko-san and Miss Cordelia? 」
「 Nono, Yo-chan, there’s more than one hotel in Tokyo . We can just pick a different hotel from Kyouko-san 」

Nei said .

「 Nei-oneesama, an unusual night view of a hotel? Isn’t that a bit lacking in imagination? 」

Misuzu speaks sharply in revenge .

「 I-Is that so? 」
「 Rather than that, I think that it won’t be a good memory if it’s in a hotel 」

Right .
We just saw literal hell just a few days ago, right .

「 Oh, in that case, there’s a Kuormori annex in the basement of a hotel in front of the station here 」

Oh, there’s that too .
The secret playroom .

「 We can’t take Misuzu-sama and everyone else to an annex of a brothel . We’re accompanied by observers 」

Shou-oneesan strongly protests .
It’s too suspicious if I take Misuzu and Ruriko and disappear to a secret room in the basement .
The observers will feel uncomfortable with it .
It’s not okay to have them resent us for that reason .
It’ll affect their loyalty to Misuzu .

「 If you say that, then staying here is a problem! 」

Nei said .
Right, this is the brothel of Kuromori .
Furthermore, it’s widely known .
The fact that Misuzu and Ruriko stay here might be scandalous .

「 That’s okay 」
「 Why? 」

Nei still argues with Shou-oneesan .

「 Kakka went here last night, didn’t he? 」

That’s right, Jii-chan came yesterday .

「 Kouzuki security service assumes that the mansion is supposed to be one of Kakka’s facilities 」

Huh?

「 Actually, Kakka has invested in Kuromori-sama’s business . Therefore, we’re not lying entirely 」

Oh, during the era where Shirasaka Sousuke was in full control .
Jii-chan intervened, put Minaho-neesan in management, and sent Kyouko-san as an auditor .
Jii-chan took out a lot of money for that .
Speaking of which, Kuromori back then was a mess because of Shirasaka Sousuke’s irresponsible management .

「 Everyone knows that Kouzuki house is in a mess due to Shigeaki-sama’s sudden death . Using the scenario where Kakka has sent his granddaughters to his own facility, a place he can rely on, everyone’s convinced 」

Misuzu and Ruriko are not in danger as long as they’re under Jii-chan’s protection .
Those who know the horror of Kouzuki house is the people inside it .

「 I’m also here . Chief Yazawa has given his consent, so everyone thinks that there’s no problem 」

Who would’ve thought that Ruriko would lose her virginity here?
Nobody thinks that a man like me would take a bath with them .
They think that the two are protected courteously .

「 Therefore, we can’t use another facility in a brothel . It would look like we’re sneaking under Kakka’s nose and about to do something obscene, don’t we? 」

Right .
If we’re going to a facility for sex, then this place would be enough .
If we go out here and go to an annex of Kuromori, then it’s inevitable to be thought that we’re going to do something obscene .
No, well .
We’re really going to have sex, and furthermore, we’re doing a spree .

「 Then, where to? 」

Nei shows a sullen face .

「 Master! 」

Michi calls me from behind .

「 Can I have your time? 」

Michi speaks to the ladies who have a sullen atmosphere .

「 Uhm, I want to apologize to Edie 」

Oh, Edie was talking to Margo-san until earlier .
Now .
She’s eating food heartily .
Ah, Ruriko too .
The two of them are talking in English .

「 Yeah, I see . You better apologize while we have time 」

Michi and Edie will be riding different cars later .
If she wants to apologize then now’s the time .

「 Will you come with me? 」

Michi speaks bashfully .

「 Hey hey, you can apologize even without Yo-chan, can’t you? 」

Nei speaks in angry mode .

「 No, I’d like Master to watch 」

I

「 Sure, let’s go 」

I turn to Nei and others .

「 There’s that, so you can decide on yourselves where we’ll be going 」
「 Eh, Yo-chan 」

Nei said .

「 Let’s go Michi 」

I hold Michi’s hand and left the place .

「 It’s going well 」

Michi said .

「 Everyone’s throwing out their feelings without holding back 」

I turn back .
Nei and Misuzu exchange opinions sullenly .
Shou-oneesan’s looking at them with a smile .

「 Misuzu-oneesama usually decides anything by herself, so she’s not good with arguments like that 」
「 Nei-neesan too, she’s always been the youngest child so she can’t help but want to be the Onee-chan 」

She’s good at suggesting “Let’s do that,” “Let’s do this,” by herself, however…
She’s not good at listening to other people’s opinions and matching it with hers .

「 Kuromori-sama has let the two of them work together on purpose 」

Michi said .

「 The two of them have the charisma and leadership, so Megumi-oneesama, Mana-imouto, and I just obey what’s proposed . 」

Even in the bathroom earlier, Nei decided on the car members by herself .

「 Up until now Misuzu-oneesama has held back, but Earlier Kruomori-sama has called names and criticized her 」

I see .
Minaho-neesan scolds Nei to be not so self-important because she’s on the same grade as Misuzu, but…
That was actually to blast away Misuzu’s restraint to Nei?

「 Right now, it’s divided into the principal people of Kuromori and those connected to Kouzuki house 」

Michi .

「 If they hold back on each other just like before, it’ll be troublesome in the future . Therefore Kuromori-sama has made a decision 」

The former prostitutes of Kuromori: Minaho-neesan, Katsuko-nee, and Nagisa .
The guards of the brothel: Kyouko-san and Margo-san .
Those connected to the brothel: Nei, Megu, Mana(as Megu’s sister), Agnes and Mao-chan .
Also .
Kouzuki house ladies: Misuzu and Ruriko .
Kouzuki house’s guards: Shou-oneesan, Rei-chan, and Michi .
Yeah .
When Misuzu was the only person from Kouzuki house, she’s been holding back all the time .
Now, the power on both sides is expanding .
But still, the older sisters keep their position as adults .
As for the young group .
Nei and Misuzu are showing hints of a fight about to happen .
In anticipation of that…
Minaho-neesan guided this layout .

「 Of course, the primary objective is to liberate Master’s mind Kuromori is a person who targets two, three birds in one stone 」

I think so too .
If Nei’s pushed with the Kouzuki house group, she’d experience to be in the away position .
Nei has always been in the home position in this mansion .

「 Really, Kuromori-sama is black . Her mind is entirely black 」

Michi said .

「 Oh, Onii-sama, is there anything wrong? 」

Ruriko notices our approach .

「 Ruriko, what are you talking about with Edie? 」

Ruriko looks at Edie .

「 I’m not that skilled in English, I don’t understand English from the southern part of the US at all . That’s what I told Edie . 」

Ruriko!
I heard that Edie has insecurities on her accent from Nei .
If you go with the opposite, asking her to teach one is converting her insecurity to a sharp point .

「 It’s entirely different from the English I’ve learned from school . It’s a great way to study! 」

She smiles .
A Japanese whose English isn’t their mother tongue, furthermore, a student .
They won’t feel any bad impressions of Edie’s southern tongue .
When Ruriko said “I want to learn how the southern US people speak,” then Edie teaches her comfortably .

「 You’re amazing 」
「 Yes? 」

Ruriko shows a puzzled face .

「 Ah, you see, Michi would like to talk to Edie so could you translate what they say to me? 」

If Ruriko’s here, then Michi won’t need to translate everything herself .
Michi wants to focus on her apology to Edie .

「 Certainly 」

Ruriko smiles .

《 ……Edie 》

Michi calls . Edie turns around .
She’s showing a “What’s up?” face
Michi speaks in English .

「 I’d like to apologize to you 」

Ruriko immediately translates .

《 ……What？ 》

Edie replies .
Michi .

「 I’ve been rude to you . I’ve been discourteous . I reflect on it . I’m sorry . Then, I have a request to ask 」

Edie listens to Michi with a serious face .

「 Please be friends with me 」

Edie .

「 We’re friends since long ago already 」

She smiles at Michi .

「 No, I’ve always taken such a bad attitude that’s not suitable to be your friend . Therefore, I’d like to apologize to you become friends once again 」

Michi bows her head .
Edie .

《 ……That’s　Right　！！！ 》

She laughs .

「 Then, let’s be best friends this time! 」

Saying that; she holds her hand to Michi .

《 Yes……！ 》

Michi holds Edie’s hand .

「 Not best friends, I want to be your sister . Please be my sister 」

Michi said while she sheds tears .

◇　◇　◇

Then, Michi and Edie continue to talk .
About a lot of things .

「 Michi’s much stronger in emitting Qi than me . I think that’s amazing . But, I guess that Michi still has a lot to go on feeling Qi . Especially when your emotions sway, you usually lose sight of your surroundings 」

I knew it .
Edie’s much better in sensing Qi .
She’s actively using her power .
Or should I say…
She has no choice but to use her Qi sensor in a place where the language is unfamiliar .
Then, if she senses a dangerous Qi, she goes to fight instantly . 」
If the surrounding Qi is calm, she relaxes the most .
She only looked eccentric to us .

「 Looking good 」

Margo-san comes to see the situation .

「 I also decided to speak frankly with her, I know that I misunderstood Edie 」

Edie’s talking to Michi happily .

「 She’s brilliant . She’s much more thoughtful and intelligent than we thought . Kukuku, she got us 」

Margo-san smiles wryly .

「 I also had that experience . I remember it well . Back when my Japanese was broken 」

Broken?

「 The Japanese are quite kind to those languages impaired but, they deal with those who are slow when it comes to learning . As for me, I simply don’t get the words and can’t use the grammar well 」
「 Oh, there are those times too 」

Ruriko said .

「 On an opposite case, I’ve heard that this happened to those who study in the UK . Even though they don’t understand the words, they accompany the person with low intelligence and deal with it 」
「 Yes, like that . They talk as if they’re talking to a kindergarten child . They say “Do you get it?” on each and everything . That is quite an annoyance」

That’s right, Me too .
I might’ve treated Edie like a child .
I didn’t understand Edie at all .

「 Even though I had that experience, I didn’t understand Edie . Who would’ve thought that she’s hiding her southern accent and desperately talking in standard English? I did something bad . We’re both Americans, so I got too indifferent about words on the contrary 」

Margo-san speaks to Edie in English .
Somehow, it was in a strange accent .
Then, Edie also replies in a different yet too strange accent .

「 That was my Indian accent . My real mother tongue, as for Edie she’s talking about her Cajun, the New Orleans accent, Edie’s home language 」

Margo-san had Edie open up her heart to her by exposing her accent .

「 I had my language fixed at the facility . Or should I say that I had nowhere to go with my Indian accent 」

Margo-san?

「 My hair and eye color are for a Caucasian . Once I fix my Indian accent, I can pretend to be a Caucasian and get a job, the teachers at the facility said that in goodwill, but… 」

For Margo-san, her accent is her identity .

「 Well, it’s fixed but either way, they’ll continue to bully me if I stay on my Indian accent . That’s how that place is 」

Margo-san’s words are heavy .

「 I also told Edie that story 」

Then, Edie opened up her heart to Margo-san?
Oh, I see .
I should try to hear her out again .
What does Edie think about having sex with me?
Or should I say…
What does Edie think about sex itself?
I don’t know what they taught to her in the assassination cult .
Err .
It’s not okay to have an interpreter at times like this .
I have to ask her myself .
Let’s see…

《 ……What　is　your　Sex? 》

I ask Edie .
Edie looks confused .

《 ……I　am　a　woman． 》

She answered .
Hmm?
What does that mean?
Uman?
Wanda?

「 Onii-sama, no matter how you look at it, Edie-san is a woman 」

Ruriko said .

「 No, I know that though 」
「 Then why did you ask for Edie-san’s gender? 」

What?!
