We go back to the bathroom we came from

Kudou papa is already there.

The men in black suit knocked down are gaggedand carried outside.

Hey, help me out

He glared at me

What are we going to do to these guys?

When I ask him

No way we would burn them to deathas a matter of fact, well have them turned to arsonists

Arsonists?

Shirasaka house went to Shirasaka Sousukes other house to destroy the evidenceKuromori-san wants that kind of scenario, dont you?

Kudou papa said while looking at Minaho-neesan.

It is as you say.

right. Thats why help me out. Boy!

Minaho-neesan nodded

I help out carrying the remaining men along with Kudou-chan.

We arranged the men outside the huge hole.

The perimeter is surrounded by traffic cones.

Thenwell just leave these guys here

Kudou papa puts a big card on the men

Whats written on the cards

These are the arsonists -Z

Whats Z?

When I asked him

Japans best man

What?

Its okay if you dont know. Stay quiet about it

Err

Whatever father does has a meaningtheres nothing we should worry about

Kudou-chan said

Well fine.

I wont understand it even if he explains it either way.

Kuromori-san. Have you accomplished your objective?

Coming out to the road without pedestriansKudou papa asks Minaho-neesan.

Thanks to youIve taken what we need

Minaho-neesan looks at the discs she brought.

Ill leave you to burn everything afterwards

Kudou papa smiles.

Roger

Thenthe two subordinates guarding outside

Tony, get in the carNoma, stay here and clean up

EhIm drawing the short end of the stick again?

Noma-san complains.

Dont complainhaving a woman discovering first makes a strong impression!

Kudou papa shouts.

Roger, boss

Noma-san reluctantly accepts the order.

Kudou-sanI feel sorry to ask but

Minaho-neesan speaks to Kudou papa with cold eyes.

Can you please drive our car?

Once againher eyes goes to the disc.

Ive got something to do. Id like not to spend time

Kudou papa grins.

Roger. Tony, you drive the Titan boyokay?

Okay boss!

We get in the car

Kudou papa on the driver seat

Minaho-neesan on the passenger seatshe opens her laptop immediately.

She must be sending the data contained in the disc to Katsuko-neesan in the schools monitoring room.

The timeits 5 oclock soon.

Kudou-chan and I are on the rear seat.

Lets go!

Kudou papa advanced the car around 20 meters.

The van with Kudou detective agencywritten on it is following

Noma-sanshes crouching close to the wall with her ears blocked.

Now then

Kudou papa took out the remote switch from his pocket.

Bites the dust!1

Booooooom!!!

The upper floor of Shirasakas alternate residenceexploded at that moment!!!

Next, fire!

Kudou papa presses the second switch2

The lower floor is set on fire like a gas stove exploding.

YeahIll leave the rest to Noma, lets go run away!!!

The car suddenly starts!!!

What? Thats easy

Kudou papa says while driving.

Ive turned off the fire alarm and gas sensor in the mansion. ThenI opened the gas valve on each room on the upper floor!

The rooms are filled with gas?

The current buildings temperature is controlled by an air conditionerbasically, the room is made to be sealed up. On top of thatthere were many rooms that were soundproof for their intended purpose. If you open the gas valve for at least fifteen minutesItll pent up in the room

Thenyou started the ignition with the remote control?

When I askKudou papa

DA BOMB3

What?

Kuromori-san said that she prefer it to be flashy, didnt she?

True.

The gas explosion is flashy.

Howeverif its just explosion, theres the fear that the fire will disappear after the blast. Thats why I set another fire device to set off fire normally on the lower floor

Thats why it has two stages?

EXACTLY

Iguzakutori he said

That means It is as you sayisnt it?

Katsukos contacting the media right away. Shirasaka house has set Shirasaka Sousukes sex party venue to remove evidence

Minaho-neesan said while looking at the screen.

They must be communicating by email.

Its about time.

Minaho-neesan takes out a pocket television from the cars dashboard

She turned it on.

The five oclock news is just starting.

It seems that the television stations affiliated with Shirasakas newspaper company has been removed it from the top news

Butthe news on other stations

All of them are reporting the news about A Japanese arrested as suspect for serial rape cases in Australia

The man named Shirasaka Sousukeincluding his detailed career

Of courseabout Shirasaka Sousuke being a member of a family owning a big newspaper company.

Weve got a scoop for our program!

The announcer speaks in front of the camera of the news program of a television station thats antagonizing the Shirasaka family the most.

We found some people related to the suspect Shirasaka putting pressure to the family of the victim Australian girl to make them withdraw the damage report to the police

The female announcer next to him continues.

The victims family has taken hidden video about the said negotiation

Then a rough video was shown.

In an Australian homethe the parents of that house are talking to the men in suit in English.

Subtitles are displayed below.

If you follow our instructions, well send you the money

Wont the lady shame herself when it comes to the court?

This kind of things should be monopolized by only one television station

Returning to her laptop work once againMinaho-neesan speaks.

Since the other television stations and news organizations will feel frustrated, they will work harder to get scoops. If you share information equallyitll destroy the motivation of the journalists on site

I see.

Minaho-neesan has the full control over the press.

At this kind of timewhat do you think will be the move of Shirasaka head family?

Minaho-neesan sends me a glance.

ErrI dont know!

I answered.

This feels like a lesson.

They purposely reveal big politician or famous celebrities scandals. Then, theyll try to erase the news about Shirasaka Sousuke

No way

Minaho-neesans hand changes the TV channel to Shirasaka houses channel.

Whats there.

Shiina-san, what is the truth?!

Are you admitting that youre two-timing?

Err

The subtitle on the screen says

Actor Shigeru Shiinais a two timer?! Who does he really like??!

What the hell?

Who do you love, Nanami-san or Hinata-san

Please answer!

Im sorry for causing trouble for everyone!

Is that their top news at five oclock?

Shouldnt that be on the entertainment corner later?

With them idling this muchtheyre troubled by the speed of information coming from our side

Minaho-neesananalyzes then laughs.

Politician grafta bribery scandal of a big companyif its not a news that wont be a big social problem, Shirasaka Sousukes news wont be blown off

Why are they revealing such an unknown actors scandal like this?

To my questionMinaho-neesan.

In the mass mediathere are a lot of people calling themselvesAlly of justice People that think that they are theright

Hmm

Do you think these kind of people would cooperate when the top of the news company orders them to hush the criminal case news report? Theyre being ordered to not report about the crime the relative of the company ownerbut rather, there will be a lot of them wholl rebel

Therefore

Its not the big-name politician or a famous artists scandal they desire

They dont care about an actors trivial news

Alsopeople in the press are living surrounded by a lot of ties. Theres no way they would throw the pipe away with big politicians and famous celebrities for this worthless thing. Once they make a mistake, their life as a press will end

True

To reduce the scandal news of the relativeyou have to uncover the scandals of politicians or celebrities whom youre normally intimate with.

Youll lose credibility.

Whatever happen, those who will try to save the face of Shirasaka familyare only people from Shirasaka family. The people in the company arent that loyal to Shirasaka family. Shirasaka family is a house that rise after the war after all

Minaho-neesan laughs happily

Andwell be taking our next steps too

Minaho-neesan changes the channel.

In the other station

Theyre immediately reporting the news of the explosion and fire incident on Shirasakas other house!

Were at the scene! The house is burning really hot!

The video from the helicopter

I can see the mansion we were from a while ago sending black smoke up.

Eh, this just came inthe owner of this house is said to be the man working for the advertising agency which is the suspect for the serial rape in Australia from the earlier report. It seems that they have destroyed the evidence before the police could start the investigation!

The news about Shirasaka Sousuke is repeatedly covered on the same news time period.

That mansion has Shirasaka Sousuke holding sex partiesif the journalist is related to public entertainment, they will all know. Up until now, they were affraid of Shirasakas advertising agency and the head family so nobody reported it. Butas long as Shirasaka has been reported as a criminal!

Everyones closed mouths will open.

Shirasakas wrongdoing will be told to the people all at once.

Minaho-neesan changes the channel again.

Its also reported cases in Australia.

Seriously, hes an unforgivable criminal. A Japanese having serial rape cases overseashes a shame to the country. An enemy of Japan

A well known commentator is getting angry at Shirasaka.

This man named Shirasaka Sousuke is a director of a major advertising agencyhe had some bad reputations in the past

About that matter, I would like to ask Maruyama-san from the entertainment deskMaruyama-san

No you seeI thought that this would happen someday!

Iswhat she said

You see, this man named Shirasaka Sousukeis a relative of the boss of a certain newspaper companyhe had a very bad rumors from the entertainment world since long ago!

Rumors?

Errcould you show the image of the fire site just now?

Yeshere

Shirasaka used this buildinggathering young entertainers and female entertainer candidates, then hold a suspicious partyThats what I know from a long time ago

Thenis it possible that this suspect have caused rape cases here in Japan as well?

I think so toohe looks like a man who cant endure it while traveling in Australia. Wont you imagine that there are similar cases in Japan?

So thats why the suspects owned house is burning right now?

Ive heard that there are a lot involved in organized crime groups participate in Shirasakas partyyou can only think of this as destruction of evidence in this timing

The reporter said with a serious look.

I hate this entertainer butIll give him a bonus. 30 millionno, 40 million yen

Minaho-neesan said.

Did you make arrangements with this reporter in advance too?

No way. Ive mailed each entertainment reporter at stage this afternoon. When a member of Shirasaka clan whos the major newspaper company raises a scandal, I want you to beat them thoroughly. Ill pay for the troubles

Butthats an unknown mail, isnt it?

But stillif the arrest of Shirasaka Sousuke actually turns to news and the press makes it a big dealyou know itll gain momentun dont you? Those kind of people knows the atmosphere of the place

Andtheyre labelling Shirasaka the bad guyeven more

Ratherby having anonymous emails coming in first, you know that this incident isnt an accident but someones plan. Therefore, theyll take on the momentum

Minaho-neesan looks at my face.

Next will be the 9 oclock news

Thats?

This isnt the endtonight, until 11 oclock news, well give out little pieces of information about Shirasaka Sousukes evildoing The people of Japan will pay attention to Shirasaka Sousukeand hate him from the bottom of their hearts!

The mobile TV news continues.

One one television station is the entertainment reporter talking about the sex parties at Shirasaka Sousukes other house

The other stations lifted the ban on that news.

Various entertainment reporters cover the hearsay and speculations, and talk about Shirasaka Sousukes evildoings

Ive heard that an actress appearing in a commercial whos taken care by the suspect was assaulted by him on the Cebu Island

It seems that the entertainment office have regular talent in the making offered to the party

It seems that theres already college rape casesthe rumors of forcibly rubbing Shirasaka clans power

Each of the stations are jumbledtheyre reporting that Shirasaka Sousuke is a Villain without help

Only the television station of Shirasaka family

Is for some reason talking about the Sweets report forming a line

Were in the building owned by Mr. Shirasaka Sousuke thats burning down

Finallythe relay car seems to have arrived at the location.

Heres a statement from the witness of the incident

Thenshe appears on the screen.

Noma-san.

Err, Iwas just walking down the road, then there was suddenly a booom! I was surprised!!

For some reasonNoma-san is talking in a cute child tone

Thenthe house suddenly flares up, then five, no, I think six men came out of that hole over there

Did these people say something?

Yesthey said that they did welland that they have perfectly destroyed the evidence

Then, where are those people?

Thensuddenly, a man in red clothes appearedwaiit! He shoutedthen he beat up the men in black

A-A man in red clothes?

Yesits a man wearing a red patch all over his body and a Z stamped on the forehead of the red helmet

Then that red person knocked down the arsonists?

Then, he settled the case. Yoyoyoi, yoyoi, yoyoyoi, yoi! It all ends well!he said, then he left riding a horse!

Horse?

Yesa horse!

Hes playing a guitar while riding the horsethen he left!

Is there anything strange with what I said?

Erryou seem to be confused from the shock of the explosion. From the site, its confirmed that five or six men in black clothes were taken to the police. Perhaps, those are the culprit of the arson case butwe dont know the details yet. Back to studio

The video goes back to studio.

Hmm, Noma-kun, not bad. Id like her to play dumb a bit more though. Dont say a man in red appeared but three people wearing red blue pink tights appearing with a huge Tomohawk

Kudou papacomments.

Why are you always fooling around?

I asked for better or for worse.

Fooling around?Who?

Kudou-san

Kudou papa looks at me through the rear mirror.

Its better to be fooling around. That one goes well

Kudou papa said while laughing.

Butarent you actually a serious person? Kudou style seems to be actually strong!

Its been strong since the start. Kudou style ancient martial arts

Kudou-chan says from the side.

Then why does all of it look like a prank? Arent you just showing it to be weak on purpose?!

Hearing what I sayKudou papa.

Boywere not athletes!

Eh?

Advertising it likeIm strongKudou style is the bestis what you want?!

Well

Its better to make them think Hes weakHes just a careless onein our kind of business

I see

So thats why!

Long agoreally long ago. Back when I was a young boy, when I really thought about entering the world of Kudou style!

Kudou papa speaks casually while driving.

Ive met across an old man. When I show him the Kudou style techniques, I was praised saying This is amazing, youll have a big futureThen he saidHow about you help with my work?

Kudou papa keeps looking forward.

ThenI went downhill, got involved with job related to Yakuzamy role was decided to be abandoned from the beginning. It was too late when I noticed itIve beaten up a lot of Yakuza then got taken by the police. Of course, the old man from the beginning didnt come to help me. I was assumed to be a foolish boy who picked a fight with Yakuza without support

Kudou chan listens to her fathers story seriously.

It seems to be his first time hearing this story.

Anyway, I was released from the police as I was still a MinorEtsuko came as my guarantor. Shes two years older than me so shes already over 20 years old. Then Etsuko told me

What did Mama-uesama say?

She saidAre you an idiot? Believing such an old man Etsuko was there when I displayed my skills to that old man too. Didnt you know that hes not that trustworthy the first time you saw his face?cant endure that

Kudou papa sighed.

Thats rightwhen I first saw him, I certainly thoughtHes so fishy, I cant trust him I shouldve felt that but when he said This is amazing, youll have a big futuremy eyes got dazzled. Its my first time being praised for my skills. I felt happy from those wordsthat I got blind thinkingThis person accepted me, hes absolutely a good person I was a fool. I was seriously a brat back then

Kudou-chan listens to her father.

Since thenI felt indebt to Etsuko. Shes amazing. Her blood doesnt rise to her head immediately like meshes always looking at things calmly

That wife is cheating right now though.

That persons betraying you.

Wellafterwards, there were a lot of stupid things happenedand I encountered pain multiple timesEtsuko helps me each time In the end, I got to know Kouzuki-sanand Im being indebt to Kouzuki-san for 26 years. Kouzuki-san is amazing. I never knew a man as bad as him. Butto be honest. Kouzuki-san doesnt hide that hes a bad guy. Thats whats really amazing!

Thats Misuzus grandfather.

The genuine rascals on the world are thinking that Im the good guyeven though hes bad at nature. Intending to do something good while entrapping other people calmly

Yeah

I feel like I know that.

Kouzuki-san is different. That person knows that hes the bad guy. And, he never hides that. Hes a fair person. Im no match against that old man. Thats what I really think

Kudou papa said.

ThereforeIve gotten involved with that old man so I can be fair

Fair

You seewhen I make a mistake, I think I should bear the responsibility. Thats why Ill never become Kouzuki old mans subordinate. Therefore Id rather die than be a regular employee!

Uhmwhat about the annual salary

Thats a liein reality, Im contracted with Kouzuki-san for each individual case. Kudou Detective Agencyand Kouzuki-sans one on one contract

Thats his pride.

I do get that buteven so, why are you always fooling around?

Wellyou, theres no other ways. Kouzuki security service people, including Kouzuki old man arent all my friends. They can be my enemy anytime. Would you show your hands to your enemy?!

I wont

Right?Rather, it saves me that they misunderstand me. In various ways

WellI get that but

Butits a bit overkill

Kudou papa sends me a glance

Boyhow many do you think are in the Guard Departmentthats under me?

Err

Tony-san and Noma-sanNo, there are others too

The guy whos chasing Violas subordinate that escaped the rehearsal building

Besides, the prior investigations that happenedI dont think its done by just three poeple

Thats rightTheres another phantom man in the guard department

Kudou papa said while putting on airs.

Theres more than one, arent there?

I answered.

I saw Kudou-chan communicating with that person a while ago.

You know it, boy

Kudou papa said happily.

Im also playing the role of connecting the troops of the underground Kouzuki security service. The members underground never shows their faces to those on the surface. Im the only point of contact. ThereforeI go in and out of the security service HQ

I see.

Butthat said, I cant be thought of an ally of the surface security service. I have to be the irregulartroublemakerfor them. Else, theyll misunderstand my permutation in human relations in the security service and theyll order me around

Thenthats why hes fooling around on purpose

Of courseI have no choice but to be underestimated by those guys if I do that. Butif a bastard underestimates me too much, Ill definitely kick his ass. Just like the newbie I knocked out with my devil chop

Was that a punishment?

But, that saiddo you have to show that youre always fooling around even in front of your wife, son and first daughter?

Even after coming back home when the work ends

It cant be helpedyou have to continue this for 24 hours, thats what it means from the start. Can you even show a serious face only in front of your family?Also, theyre regular employees of Kouzuki security service

Kudou papa laughs casually.

It cant be helped. I cant recommend my way of living to them

Thenhe speaks to Kudou-chan.

Even Michi-kun, you can abandon this Papa of yours and live on a stable life there and be happy

Kudou-chan

NoIm a practitioner of Kudou style

Michi-kun?

I respect fathers way of living.

Hearing his daughters wordsKudou papa.

Kuuuuyoure making me cry. Michi-kun. Hey, boy!

Ah, Yes?

Why me?

Thats whyI leave Michi-kun to you

What?

Youre aiming for Michi-kuns virginity arent you?

I

Michi-kunAre you sure with this guy?

Yesfather

Kudou-chan?!

Thenit cant be helped!

1. No, he just said click, but hey, thats what the stand sounds like

2. Sheer heart attack has no weakness

3. Thats a copypasta, heres a better one KILLER QUEEN
