Chapter 29 - BITTERSWEET NEWS

The same day and time as the previous chapter...

So, In short, that bastard Takahiro is still into us, huh? Shinji said feigning annoyance.

Isn't it obvious? It's clear that he is still into us even without her revealing it. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.

The bell rangs indicating that lunchtime is over.

Thanks to Takahiro's absence, we can go home early today! Shinji said enthusiastically.

I am permitting you to go out with your friends today, I'll be going to my part time work. After all, we're laying low right now. Arata said calmly Just be on your guard and don't try to do anything uncalled for. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.

YES, THANK YOU! FINALLY, FUN AWAITS! Shinji said enthusiastically But, what about Haruko? Should we still worry about her? Shinji asks warily.

Don't worry, I am pretty sure that Takahiro assigned her to watch us in school hours only...that means, after school hours we're clear. Besides, we've already gotten rid of her already by discovering her ourselves...so, she'll probably leave us alone now. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.

Inside the class 3-C classroom...

Call Kaori over here. Arata said coldly.

Alright, no need to get too bossy! Shinji said sarcastically.

Shinji approaches Kaori.

Kaori, Arata ask for you again.Shinji said hesitantly, letting out a sigh.

Kaori chuckles at Shinji's reaction.

Alright, let's go! Kaori said enthusiastically.

Shinji gets back at Arata with Kaori.

Do you need something, Arata? Kaori said curiously.

I want you to go straight to the MPD Headquarters, we need to get our hands with some useful information about that meeting as soon as possible. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.

I got it! Kaori said confidently.

Shinji, maintain your facade as a normal student...I am allowing you to hang out with your friends, as said earlier. Arata said coldly.

YAHOO! Shinji said, whistling.

I am going to maintain my facade too, I am going to my part time job. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses As soon as you've heard or find out anything useful regarding that meeting, call me immediately, Kaori. Arata said authoritatively.

I will! Kaori said confidently But, what about the spy? Are you two going to be alright? Kaori adds warily.

Don't worry about her, she's not a problem any longer. Arata said coldly I'll be leaving first, after 5 minutes, you leave the room too, Kaori. Just to avoid suspicions. Shinji, leave with your friends. Arata said coldly, adjusting his glasses.

Arata left the room immediately.

There he goes again leaving people behind...Shinji said, letting out a sigh of defeat.

So, who exactly is "Her"? Who's the spy? Kaori asks curiously.

I am pretty sure that you know her, Haruko. Shinji said calmly She's the spy and the most shocking revelation of all is that... she's Takahiro's daughter. Shinji said sarcastically.

What?! Haruko, the quiet girl? And...the daughter of Sir Takahiro? Kaori asks, shock evident in her voice Well, if that's the case, then we shouldn't be surprised that she is the one Sir Takahiro tasked to observe the two of you. Kaori adds calmly.

Right, from now on, she's also one of our enemies too. She's helping out Takahiro so that must only mean that she's a threat to us. Shinji said coldly.

Let's just be careful around her...Kaori said hesitantly.

Shinji's friend calls for him.

Alright, time for me to leave! Take care on your way, Kaori! Shinji said enthusiastically as he runs outside of the room along with his friends.

Another 3 minutes so it seems. Kaori said, letting out a sigh of defeat.

After 3 minutes, Kaori also left the classroom.

At Kaido Internet Cafe, 5:00 P.M

Araya has been tasked to throw the trashes out in the backyard, he is currently in the backyard.

His phone rang and when he checked who it was it is revealed to be Kaori.

"Kaori? Maybe she have some updates regarding that meeting." Arata taught to himself, answering the call.

Hello, Kaori? Any updates about the meeting? Arata asks expectantly.

Bad news...A really bad one...Kaori said hesitantly.

What? What happened? Arata said coldly, urgency evident on his voice.

They've... they've...placed a bounty in your heads. Kaori said hesitantly.
