Bathed, lights out, whispered conversations, fell asleep, ready for tomorrow's practice.
August 17, 7 AM.
In a restaurant in Karuizawa, the Wind Instrument Club in school athletic wear was very conspicuous.
Tourists speculated about which school it was that was affluent enough to afford a cram school for students in Karuizawa in August.
"I heard that Mr. Dubian paid for our lodging fees."
"How much did that cost?"
"Not just that, there's also the rental of the music hall."
"Why would Mr. Dubian do such a thing, Haomei, do you know?"
"That guy treats our Wind Instrument Club like a branch of the Human Observation Department!"
"Not bad at all."
"Right, the Human Observation Department is those three."
Xiaoquan Aonai, along with Akiko who had gotten up early to accompany her, and Miyazaki Miyuki, sat at a table eating breakfast.
"Where does that kid Dubian get so much money? From the Jiutiao family?" Akiko asked while eating her salad.
