Chapter 345. Each respective crossroads

Theres a lot of large cargo collection locations on the Gulf coast from Odaiba to Haneda

Theres five cars thats following the bus were riding on

Because its treated as a private propertyeven the police cars cant easily pass through. If they dont have the entry permit then theyll be stopped at the entrance

Kudou-papa takes out a document grinning.

By the wayI have the entrance badge around this area. Tony

Yes boss

Tony-san moves the bus into a nearby logistics terminal.

Kudou-papa presents the pass to the guardso our buss is allowed to enter.

The cars behind stopped.

Well be coming from this entrance and get out on the other side

Then the bus goes through another terminal and head towards the exit

Of course, tailing cars cant be chased away at one gothere are guys watching us from above too

Kudou-papa points aboveOh, theres a helicopter

I see, these guys are monitoring our location from the sky.

These guys were giving the tracking cars instructions from a while ago.

Its the ironclad rule of tailingits better to think that there are other tracking methods prepared other than those five that were visibly chasing us. With that said

The buss enters into another truck terminal.

Well continue to cross private properties multiple times

The next terminal has a big roof.

We turn in a place where the helicopter can overseeand head to the exit.

And then another entry card is presented on another collection site.

This time, the bus runs in a huge building.

Going around the inside, coming out of a different exit.

Hmmwere close to our destination.

We jumped into another terminal.

When the bus enters the facility

What?

Theres buses with the same type as ours.

Furthermorethe passengers of the bus are wearing the same tiger masks as we do

Okay. Tony-kun stop!

By Kudou-papas instruction, Tony-san stops the bus.

At the same time, the busses parked starts

That one has Norma-kun driving. The passenger tigers are all mannequins. For a while, theyll be running around the logistics terminal like weve been doing now. The police and media would notice the buss has changed soon butthey wont know at which stage they did

I-I see.

Thereforeeveryone, get in that truck

Its okay to take off the mask

Fuu, Kyouko-san gave her permission.

We take off the tiger masks and cloak.

Thenwhere are we going from here?

Kyouko-san asks, Kudou-papa

After coming hereHaneda airport is just around the corner

He smiled.

Theres a convenient place there called VIP parking lot. Your cars were moved there from the theater last night. The airport parking lot has many cars coming and goingso even if your luxury foreign cars like yours line up, it wont be noticed

Kudou-papa and Tony-san immediately changes their uniform to a transport company.

We open the aluminum door and head inside the cargo compartment.

This two ton long compartment might be narrow for you all but please endure it for now

Theres no seats so we sat directly on the floor of the cargo compartment.

Mao-chan is carried by Nagisabut shes happily laughing.

Sister Edie looks pleased as well.

Reika sits in between Nagisa and Katsuko-nee.

Minaho-neesan is protected by Kyouko-san and Margo-san.

Megu and Manas tense, Im hugging Nei-san.

As for Yukino

Why are you still wearing your black tiger mask?

Becausesomeone might identify me as Shirasaka Yukino. The airport has a lot of people

As usual, shes overly self-conscious

Or rather, it doesnt feel like the black tiger mask is strange.

The road is flat and I wont speed up too much so I dont think there would be that much shaking. Well be right there so bear with me

After saying, Kudou-papa closed the door of the cargo compartment from the outside.

We endured being stuffed inside the truck compartment for ten minutes.

Well, it didnt shake as much as I thought but stillI know that the cargo compartment isnt a place for people to ride on.

Before long, the truck stops.

The door opens again.

Were herewoah, its filled with womanly scent

Kudou-papa said after smelling the room.

Well of course theres more than ten women stuffed in.

You look fine

HahaI got used to it

Thats right. Im used to living with women.

Outside of the truckseems to be a multi-story parking lot.

A familiar car is parked in front of our eyes.

Margo-sans blue Maserati

Next to it is Minaho-neesans Benz.

Then, a white van.

Thats my car!

Nagisa points at it

A red car

Its a Peugeot. A French car

Oh. Nagisa knows it.

Dont touch it yet, Nagisa-chan!

Kyouko-san said.

Everyone take distance

Then, she looked at Kudou-papa.

Its not like I dont trust you butits an occupational disease. Im scared for others to touch the car before I check it

Scared?

There could be transmitters or explosives you see

Kyouko-san started from checking Minaho-neesans Benz.

Margo, check your own car

Roger, Kyouko-san

Margo-san begins examining from the Maseratis suspension

Ah, Ill help out too

Reika also joins the work.

Okay. Theres no bomb but I found a transmitter

Margo-san said.

Margo, thats probably not the only one there

Yeah. Having this one found is probably within their assumptionI think theres a gimmick in here

Dont overlook a single piece

Okay

Ah, I found one here too

Reika also finds a transmitter.

In the end, the four cars had twelve transmitters found on them.

What does this mean?

Kyouko-san asks Kudou-papa.

I-I dont know anything about that

I knowthe one who did it is probably Tanizawa-pops

Kyouko-san laughs.

That old man wants to put bells on our necks

Or ratherits just Kyouko-san. Tanizawa-san feels threatened with your freedom

Margo-san said.

Well who cares. I hate having a bell on my neck you see. Could you tell Tanizawa-pops that?

Kyouko-san hands the mountain of transmitters to Kudou-papa.

My, look at the timeIm really late

Nagisa looks at her watch.

The time is already 10:30

Ill be going ahead. Ive got to open the shop after all

Wait, Nagisa

I look at Megu.

Megu, do you have club activities today?

Theres one today butI called Captain Takeshiba this morning telling that Ill be taking a day off for today

Huhwhy?

Because of the fuss last night, everyone hasnt rested at all you see?I feel sorry to have only Katsuko-oneesan take care of the mansion

Megus completely into being the chairman of the family.

Captain Takeshiba also watched the TV on the big things happening to Shirasaka house. So she told me to not go to the club for today

Everyone knows that Megus a distant relative of Shirasaka family

The big coup in the Shirasaka house is reported more extensively than yesterdays Shirasaka Sousukes sex scandal.

People who are interests oriented were taken up by Shirasaka Sousuke but

With the downfall of the head of the media network and television stations.

Hes also the owner of a popular team

The influence on the society is uneven.

Okay. Then, Megu will take care of the mansion. Also, Manago help on Nagisas shop

Whatme?

Thats right. Were family so isnt it normal that we help each other out?

Yupyoure right

Manas convinced.

Also, Reika will be going too

Me?Help out with a flower shop?

Reikas surprised.

Because of yesterdays eventsI think that its better if theres a guard on Nagisas shop just in case. Reika will help out the shop and protect Nagisa and her employees

If thats the case

Nomy true intention is to

Have Reika touch something other than a sword.

Of course, you have to be helping out with the store properly so the customers coming to the shop wont think of you as strance

Certainly

Nagisais that okay?

Though instead of helpersIm just letting Nagisa take care of Mana and Reika though

If its Nagisa, shell be teaching them properly

Yes, itll help!

Nagisa smiles.

Then, get in the carMao too. When the shops closed, well go back at the mansion at night

Nagisa, Mao-chan, Mana, and Reika gets in the red car.

Wooo, MAO!

Youre here

Edies not agreeing to Mao-chan going away but

Kyouko-san holds her down with power.

Well be returning to the mansion for now. I dont think theres any watchers hired by Shirasaka house or Viola in there, but It feels scary if we dont check it properly

Minaho-neesan said.

After the safety of the mansion is confirmed, Ill go with Kyouko-san to take the target

The target means Shirasaka Sousuke.

Yukino the black tiger looks at Minaho-neesan in surprise.

Minahocan we go on a separate route?

Margo-san said.

Itll be me, him and Nei

Minaho-neesan

Lets see. Ill leave that case to you

She said.

Then, well be going aheadsee you later, dear!

Onii-chanIll do my best!

Leave this to me

Nagisas car started rolling

Should this girl be in our car too?

Yeswe dont know what she would do if shes not monitored

Isnt it safer than Edie? Well, it looks fun so heyget in!

Yukino in her black tiger mask rides on the back seat of Minaho-neesans car.

Edie sits next to her.

But still, shes frolic.

Her excitement on places she would go doesnt stop.

Katsuko-nee and Megu rides the white van.

Kudou-san, thanks for everything this time

Minaho-neesan gives her thanks before riding the car.

Dont mind it. Were only doing our jobs

Kudou-papa answered with a smile.

This time, we were allies butdo you want to be hostile next time?

Kyouko-san says.

Spare me from that. The bodies hitting the floor wont be enough against you

Even Kudou-papa cant make jokes on the veteran Kyouo-san.

BesidesI dont want to fight Michi

Kudou-papa looks at Minaho-neesan and Kyouko-san with a serious face.

Please take care of Michi

He bows his head.

Your daughter is taken by my brother. We the seniors will be monitoring and guiding them so they can become happy. Please do not worry

Minaho-neesan also bows her head to Kudou-papa.

Ill get it right!

I bow my head deeply

Thanks. Really

Kudou-papas affection to Michi is deep in his heart.

Well then, good luck, boy!

Kudou-papa tells me.

YesIll do my best

Thanks

Laughing, Kudou-papa rides back the truck.

He ordered Tony-san and the engine started.

Well thenyou three do what you have to do

Minaho-neesan says then she rides the Benz.

Margo, you dont have to worry about us. Take care of Nei-chan!

Kyouko-san says from the passenger seat.

Yukinoat the moment our eyes met, she turned her face away.

While still wearing the black tiger mask.

Sister Edie laughs at Yukino

The engine starts roaring

And the black Benz rolls out.

Well be going as well. Please come back home soon

Yoshi-kun, Ill be waiting!

Katsuko-nee and Megus white van also follows Minaho-neesan.

The people remaining in the parking lot are

Me, Margo-san, and Nei-san

And Margo-sans blue Maserati

Well, lets go too

Margo-san said.

Were going to my house.

I wont say it butthe three of us know that

Lets go, Kei

RightOnee-chan

We ride the car.

Here, take this. Nei too

Margo-san opens the car dashboard

Then she took out two phones from the inside.

Its a prepaid card type phoone. Use that for the time being. The numbers pasted on the seal on the back. Jot the number down and throw it away

Yeah. Theres a number written on a seal.

The phones used until yesterday were all destroyed. Theres a possibility that those numbers are already leaked in the underground society. The phones I gave you just now will only be used as a communication until you get a new phone. Ill prepare a new phone by tomorrow

Thusmy former phone wasnt given back.

Well thenlets go?

Margo-san turns the engine key

The high power Maserati starts lightly

Yeahlets go

Nei-san holds my hand.

Is she getting nervous?Her hand is cold.

Ilater

Will be taking Nei-sans virginity

Lets go

The Maserati kicks the ground and dashes forward furiously!
