Evidence
“Mikado…do you…like me?”
From Kisa’s beautiful lips, a soft voice leaked. Her cheeks were as red as a cherry, with her eyes, radiating like gemstones, reflecting Mikado himself.
“No…that’s…” Mikado was panicking.
Shown on their phones was evidence that they both had positive affection for each other. Who would? For what reason? How even? Full of mysteries, Mikado was at a loss on what to do. The first one to move was Kisa. She pressed a button on her phone, and put the phone to her ear, speaking quickly.
“Sigma! Jam the entire town!”
「Huh? Why that, so suddenly?」
“Do it right now! If not, I’ll have you killed!”
「! Roger!」
Being able to faintly hear their conversation, Mikado immediately guessed Kisa’s intent. She would seal off the chances of proof leaking outside, steal Mikado’s phone, and win the love game with the overwhelming proof she acquired. Mikado quickly tried to save the own proof he received—the scenery of Mizuki teasing Kisa about her love for Mikado—on his drive, but he didn’t make it in time. His connection was cut, not even allowing him to send an email.
“Fufu…fufufufufu…”
Hearing a laugh filled with confidence and enjoyment, Mikado lifted his head. The wavering and bashful expression of the maiden in front of him had vanished. A dark aura, befitting Kisa, who crowned herself as the successor of the Empress of Darkness, started emitting from her back, as passion resided in her eyes. From her lips, a questionable and enticing breah leaked.
“Now…Mikado…? Could you hand me that smartphone…?”
“…You think I would just give it to you?”
“I don’t…But, let me be honest with you. This once, I will not hold back to get your everything…because now, it will end for good!” Kisa kicked her feet off the ground, leaping at Mikado.
Her speed, her eyes, they resembled a beast, more than a young girl. Like a beast clad in darkness, she was intent to fully gulp up Mikado right here. In her hand, she had a knife, radiating in the sunlight. The blade of the knife barely missed Mikado’s cheek, as a strand of hair flattered through the air.
“You’re planning on killing me?!”
“I won’t! If I do, we won’t be able to stay together! That’s why, give up and become my slave before I have to kill you!”
“Ridiculous?!” Mikado screamed, as he ran away from behind the gym hall.
Though forcing Kisa down wouldn’t be impossible, with her holding clear killing intent like that, he might hurt her since he couldn’t hold back either. That was not an option for Mikado. If it came to raw physical ability, Mikado would not lose against her. Hence, he dashed into the school building, running up the stairs. He was aiming for the computer room. There, he should still have an internet connection, allowing him to take a back-up of the proof he had obtained. She shouldn’t have had the time to cut off the communication line just yet. In the worst case, he would have to use his private network to analyze the data with the terminal inside the room.
Before the homeroom in the morning, the hallway was filled with students arriving at school. Between those who exchanged short greetings, Mikado mentally prepared himself to die at any moment, as he passed through them. Running in the hallway was an action not befitting of a Kitamikado Family member, but this time it couldn’t be helped. Arriving at the computer room, he frantically opened the door, jumping inside.
“Mikado-kun?! What happened?!”
Inside, Kokage was currently working at one terminal. She had a cable connecting the PC and camera, checking pictures.
“Sorry! Let me borrow that PC!”
“Eh? There’s countless others though…”
“I don’t have the time to boot one up!”
“Hya?!”
Mikado stood between the PC and the chair Kokage was sitting on, moving the mouse himself. His elbow hit Kokage’s chest, his hand laying on hers, but he didn’t have time to get flustered about that.
Mikado swiftly opened the browser, moving to the back-up site he used.
“Huh? A ball?”
Together with Kokage’s confused voice, Mikado heard something fall to the ground. Looking over the source, the item having dropped to the floor wasn’t a ball or anything—it was pitch black, with the form of a pineapple.
“A hand grenade!”
Mikado embraced Kokage, carrying her outside the room. Following that, the gust of the explosion hit his back. The windows were burst open, the fragments flying everywhere. With a fire breaking out, the school alarm rang out.
“Eh…Huh? The classroom exploded…? Terrorism…?” Kokage sat on the floor, flabbergasted.
“Are you hurt?!”
“N-No, I’m fine…But, what just happened…?”
“I don’t have the time to explain! For now, the school has turned into a battlefield! If possible, you should go home right away! At the very least, ride somewhere safe!”
“A battlefield?! What is going on?!”
Mikado didn’t have the time to answer, as he ran down the hallway, away from the computer room. The alarm stopped immediately after. Kisa most likely cracked the security system to not alarm anybody, especially the police, as things would grow complicated if they were to get involved. There were other computers around, like the staff’s office, but they were laptops. They were most likely suffering from the jamming.
If possible, Mikado would have loved to call his family to order a car home. The closest landline phone was located at the office on the first floor. Arriving at that conclusion, Mikado ran down the stairs again, jumping inside the room. The inside was wrapped in silence, showing that nobody was currently using the phone. Right after picking up the phone he heard the sound he wanted to hear, meaning they didn’t cut the telephone line.
The problem being, since he had always used the shortcut in his phone to call his driver, he didn’t remember the number. In a rush, Mikado took out his smartphone, searching through his address book to find the number. But then, he felt something odd at his back. Though they were weak, he heard definite footsteps, approaching him.
“Haa…Hehe…” A voice with burning passion tickled Mikado’s neck.
Following that, a sweet, oh so sweet scent of deadly poison.
“Found youuu…”
A young girl’s body clung to Mikado’s back. Her soft skin was slightly oiled with sweat, clinging to Mikado’s own. Her slender fingers ran down his chest, reaching out for the smartphone in his hand.
“Did you reallyyyy think…you could run away from me…?”
Her eyes, filled with ecstasy, were gazing right into Mikado’s. Her limbs were glued to his body, her lips about to touch his cheek, as she whispered sweet temptations into his ear.
“Hey…Mikado…give me this, okay…? I really…really want this…”
She was asking Mikado to hand over the smartphone in a cutesy way, which led him to feel a shiver go down his spine.
“..:You seem to be mistaken about something. There is no data on this phone. I hid the memory card at a safe location.” Mikado returned a calm voice, as if he was scolding Kisa’s prank.
“That’s a lie. You trust in your strength more than anything else. With the risk of it being found by somebody else, you would decide that protecting it yourself was much more safe.”
“I am the type of man who would take risks for his goal.”
“No, you wouldn’t take any risks. You would always go for the safest way to win. I know how you like to fight after all. How many times do you think we have played chess together?”
“…!” Mikado grit his teeth.
The time he treasured so much back then, which he passed with Kisa in a secluded room during the parties, now came back to haunt him. Just as she said, Mikado was the type to remove any sort of danger, rather than be adventurous. At the same time, Kisa was the exact opposite, very skilled at taking risks with high reward.
“Come on…isn’t it fine? You want to become free, right…? If I can have the data, I’ll kiss you wherever you want me to…”
“Wherever…I want you to…?”
“Yes, wherever…And not just that…I will do whatever you want me to…That is…my…” Kisa clung to Mikado.
Which was the source of the heat Mikado felt? His body? Kisa’s body? Or was it both? Mikado was trying his hardest not to get swallowed up by her heat and passion.
“There’s…something hard hitting me, though?”
With the experience Mikado had gathered, he immediately understood that this hard thing was the muzzle of a gun.
“I can’t help it, okay? It’s the candy and whip principle. This once, I really cannot let you get away.”
“What a coincidence, I really can’t lose against you this once.”
Mikado fell forwards, whilst grabbing Kisa’s arm the same moment, throwing her on the ground. Because he didn’t want her to get hurt in any way, he had to do it softly, which is why Kisa could still fire the gun. Twisting his body, he evaded the bullet, dashing out of the office. He jumped into a nearby empty classroom, clinging to the wall to prepare for Kisa’s next attack. Right away, a canister that looked like a spray can flew inside.
—A flashbang!
At the same time as the foreign object exploded, Mikado covered his eyes, though avoiding the flash, he was still left blind for a few seconds. Right after, a small body bumped into Mikado’s body with great momentum. From the scent and sensation, as well as the breath leaking from the body—No, more than anything, Mikado’s instincts screamed that he had Kisa in his arms.
The two were battling with strength, trying to push the other down. The sound of sparks ran out—most likely from a stun gun—arriving at his ears, forcing Mikado to react quickly and avert the attack with the back of his hand. Riding on top of him now, Kisa was about to bring down a knife, which Mikado barely managed to avoid.
The knife stabbed the ground. Mikado used this as a chance to grab Kisa’s arms, pushing her down onto the floor. Without restraint, he went to restrain her hands on the ground. Once he opened his eyes again, Kisa’s rather enticing figure was right beneath him.
“Haa…huff…”
Her face was burning in a strong red, her well-endowed chest going up and down as she breathed heavily. Her uniform had been moved here and there, the buttons opened to reveal more and more of her skin. Her thighs were pressed against Mikado’s waist, shaking softly. Glaring up at Mikado with tears in her eyes, Kisa triggered Mikado’s instinct to win over her everything.
“A-Are you going to ravish me…?”
“As if I would!”
“Why?! I’m cute, right?! Aren’t you getting excited at this sight?! You got a great meal in front of you!”
“Sadly, there’s poison inside though!”
“There isn’t…I’m very sweet…delicious…and you won’t be able to stop eating once you started…?”
“You’ll die if I did that!”
Truth be told, she was charming enough Mikado was getting close to losing himself, but by the time he would give in to his instincts, it would be his loss in the love game. That was probably the reason she acted so provocative now. Going this far to win, Mikado felt like praising her, but he couldn’t fall for her tricks.
“I’ll be taking your smartphone now. Where is it?”
“I shot it up into outer orbit.”
“I doubt you had the time to prepare a rocket like that. Where is it?”
“I cut open your belly, and hid it inside.”
“Scary! What is this, The Wolf and the Seven Young Goats?”
Thinking about it, just cutting open the belly of the wolf was enough of a cruel deed, and yet the goats even put stones inside. That’s reaching atrocious levels.
Since questioning Kisa bore no fruit, Mikado went to look for the smartphone himself. He tried touching the fabric above her skirt’s pockets. All he could feel was the soft sensation of her thighs, nothing else.
“…Mm…”
Just to make sure, Mikado carefully put his fingers inside the pockets as well, to what Kisa’s body twisted in agony. Her long eyelashes were shaking in bashfulness. Unable to bear Mikado’s fingers touching her skin, she closed her eyes.
Even though he wasn’t doing anything lecherous, the girl’s reactions made it feel as if he was ravishing her, as an odd sense of immorality assaulted him. Having finished checking both pockets fully, even turning them inside out, he couldn’t find the smartphone.
Remembering that she had the tendency of hiding things in her hair, such as back then when they worked as library committee members, he put his fingers inside of her beautiful hair. Though he was a bit dubious if she could really hide something like a smartphone in there.
“Ouch! Don’t be so rampant!”
His fingers got caught in a bundle of hair, to what Kisa hissed at him.
“S-Sorry.”
Following that, he moved his fingers through her hair more calmly, almost as if he was patting her on thead.
“Mm…don’t be so kind now…”
“Which is it?!”
Mikado didn’t know how to deal with the sudden change of attitude in Kisa. At the same time, he couldn’t find the smartphone anywhere. Yet, something was off. Kisa should be holding onto the smartphone at any costs. Holding such valuable proof, she wouldn’t dare to put it away at a location far away from her. With confidence of her level, she must have believed that she could win over Mikado, and steal his smartphone instead.
“Don’t tell me…”
Mikado put his fingers into Kisa’s mouth. A warm, wet sensation assaulted his fingers, as Kisa’s eyes opened wide in shock.
“No…M-Mihaho…ho…”
“If you don’t want me to, then give me your smartphone.”
“Nya…ihide my houh…shah…”
Mikado put his finger into every little opening her mouth provided. Her white throat started to shake, as sweet moans escaped from her wide open mouth. She didn’t even try to bite Mikado’s finger, just trying to endure this situation. Her small tongue chased after Mikado’s fingers, clinging to it, granting even greater stimulus. At the very end, she started caressing Mikado’s finger with her lips all together.
“H-Hey…”
“Mmm…Ahh…Mmm…”
The hot and wet skin of her tongue wrapped around his finger, pulling it deeper inside. Even though she had looked terrified only a few moments prior, now her face is distorted by pleasure and desire. Her eyes were not only desiring Mikado’s fingers alone, but his entire body. Feeling a sudden sensation of immorality and fear, Mikado pulled his finger out of her mouth. Following that, Kisa licked her red lips.
“Mikado, you really are a pervert beyond help. Pushing down a girl in an empty classroom, embarrassing her like this.”
“Whose fault do you think this is…”
“How was the inside of my mouth? If you were to surrender yourself to me, I would let you taste my tongue directly. You want to kiss me…don’t you?”
“That’s…” Mikado audibly gulped in the face of this provocation.
He happened to envision it, the scene of their two tongues intertwining, loving each other.
“Since you’re such a lecher, I’ll tell you. My smartphone is actually hidden right between my breasts.”
“Wha?!”
“What now? You can’t put your hands in between there, right? You don’t have the guts for that.”
Mikado narrowed his eyes at the ridicule coming from Kisa, but he had no hesitation right now. Rather, he might have not had any strength to reason left inside of him. Hence, he pushed down Kisa with one hand still, the other one he carefully moved into the chest of her uniform.
“H-Hold on, you’re serious?!”
Kisa panicked, having not expected this turn of events apparently. Her calm attitude of a Queen had vanished elsewhere, as Mikado felt the desire to make her panic even more. Mikado’s fingers reached deep inside the valley of her chest.
“Mmm…?!” Kisa’s shoulders jolted up.
Mikado reached deeper in search of the smartphone, as his fingers were wrapped in a soft sensation. More smooth than cream, her skin clung right to his fingers. At the place he could feel the girl’s heartbeat the closest, his fingers were running rampant.
“Mmm…No…Mikado…It’s still too…early…Ah…”
Kisa’s knees were shaking, clinging to Mikado as she writhed in agony. The soft voice reaching up to Mikado’s eardrums were fully melting the part of Mikado’s brain that still worked. His name called out by the girl he loved in such erotic manner, Mikado felt the deepest parts of his body burn up. The two big bulges surrounding his hand were changing form the more he moved.
Suddenly, the chime for homeroom rang. Reflexively, Mikado separated himself from Kisa. Their shoulders were going up and down as they tried to get their breathing under control, showing no signs of continuing their attacks any further. Kisa was the first to react, as she stood up on wobbly knees, pressing her hands on her chest, leaving the empty classroom. Finally, with a face as if she couldn’t handle the embarrassment, she turned around to glare at Mikado.
“……………Pervert.”
Mikado was left behind with these words he couldn’t deny.
On the way to his own classroom, Mikado gazed out the windows on the side of the hallway he traversed. With his face forward, he had his eyes cast to the side.
—I thought so.
Just as expected, he spotted several of Kisa’s subordinates around the area of the school gate. They looked like normal salarymen on the outside, but the second they were standing around in front of a school gate as they were, they didn’t look normal anymore. No doubt, they were there to seal off Mikado’s possible escape. Kisa’s phone probably didn’t suffer from the on-going jamming. At the same time, she must have saved the proof of Mikado’s affection for her as a back-up somewhere. Meaning, if Mikado’s evidence of Kisa’s affection for him were to be stolen, it would be his defeat. Arriving at that conclusion, he had to somehow lessen the current danger by any means.
—There’s snipers around…And so many.
Here and there, inside and on top of the buildings surrounding the one he was in, he could see the lights of the muzzles and scopes flash up. If Mikado were to try and escape to an isolated building, he would be shot at without doubt.
—Guess I can only wait for more people to arrive.
In other words, once classes ended for the day. He had to hide the sight of his in the mass of students. That would be the safest method of escaping. Mikado entered the classroom, and immediately went to check out Kisa’s status.
“Uuu…”
The damage she had received before apparently hadn’t vanished yet, as Kisa had her head buried in her arms, letting out moans of despair. Though she had buttoned up her shirt, her clothes as a whole were still in disarray. Kokage walked over to her, asking in a worried tone.
“What happened? Are you not feeling well?”
Kisa muttered, her face still not visible.
“My breasts were groped…”
“Ehhhhhh?! W-Who did it?!”
“Sex offender…”
“A sex offender?! There’s one at this school?! I have to hurry and get evidence—!”
—You’re not going to report it first?!
However, Kokage already dashed out of the room, not being able to Mikado’s retort. But, as the homeroom teacher just arrived at the classroom, she was grabbed by the neck, and forcefully sat down on her seat again. Wonderful display of responsibility on their end.
Kisa on the other hand still lingered on her seat, not moving an inch. From the looks of it, she wouldn’t be able to muster up any attack in the next few hours. Mikado saw this, and put his smartphone deep inside his pocket. Now all he had to do was wait for classes to end.
…However. Right as the second period arrived, with Mikado copying notes into his notebook, a white hand appeared from beneath the desk.
—A ghost?!
Mikado thought for a second, but after taking a closer look, it was a living human being; Kisa. She had snuck up to him, eventually getting between his knees, currently in the middle of reaching for his pocket. For some reason, she was even breathing roughly, almost as if she was excited by something.
“What are you doing?!” Mikado asked in a quiet voice.
Kisa just glared up at him.
“What are you doing?! You should be studying right now! Properly focus on classes, okay?!”
“There’s many things I want to say right now…But, let me just go with this…You’re not one to talk!”
Kisa nodded along for some reason.
“That’s right. It’s not like I don’t understand what you are thinking. Having a beauty like me right next to you, you wouldn’t be able to focus on classes, right! An expected reaction from a boy like you!”
“You didn’t have to be a beauty for me to react like that!”
“That’s…so even a middle-aged man with pure good-will would have you react like that?”
“What kind of example is that! Also, I doubt a middle-aged man would act like this out of good-will!”
“Don’t you know the saying ‘Study hard while you are young’?”
“What are we talking about?!” Mikado was at a loss.
The situation was plenty confusing already, and now Kisa was bringing some random idiom into the game.
“It’s fine, don’t mind me. This will be over really soon…”
“Don’t use classes to ram some syringe into your classmate’s thighs!”
Mikado stole the syringe out of Kisa’s hands. Though he had no way of knowing what was inside, it couldn’t have been anything good. And if possible, he would have liked to avoid suffering from a coma as the high school student that he was. As Mikado grabbed both her arms to restrain her, the girl fought back with all her might. The other students were focussing on class, not realizing that a silent war was going on.
“It seems like you don’t understand your current position…If I scream here, everybody will think that you’re forcing a female classmate to do perverted stuff in class…and they’ll all be judging you.”
“It’s the opposite…If I scream here, they’ll think that you’re some pervert who tries to pull down a male classmate’s pants, judging you!”
“I don’t mind at all!”
“Mind it a bit, okay?!”
Kisa snickered.
“All other humans besides Mikado are less than trash, so why would I care what some trash thinks about me…”
“I see, your self-conceit is reaching new heights, huh!” Mikado was fed-up with the situation, but at the same time felt happy that he was a special existence to her.
Because of this, the strength in his arms relaxed, allowing Kisa to aim at his pocket. Though he managed to catch her hand right, her long nails were already inside.
“Keep calm already…this will be over soon…I won’t do anything bad…”
“That’s the exact phrase someone with bad intentions would say!”
“It’ll feel good really soon…”
“How would I feel good about having my smartphone stolen?!”
This awkward battle continued for another 30 minutes, until Kisa’s endurance reached its limit. The sight of Kisa returning to her seat in a detached manner was surreal, but Mikado arrived at a terrifying conclusion. Kisa would attack all the time…even if it was during class. On top of that, after the explosion in the computer room, no ambulance was called, the students weren’t sent home either, still attending classes as before. That in itself was an irregularity. Though this probably wasn’t a similar school like Kisa had used before, it was very likely that a part of the teachers had been bribed (or threatened). Mikado couldn’t relax.
Lunch break. Even during the time Mikado was buying lunch at the cafeteria, he never once let go of his smartphone. At a table a bit further away, Kisa was eating pancakes gracefully…or so it might look, but in reality, she was watching Mikado. After carrying a piece of pancake to her mouth with fork and knife, she gazed at Mikado.
Next it’s your turn~
Without letting out a voice, her lips conveyed the words instead. This was pure horror. Mikado could bear it as the successor of the Kitamikado Family, a normal boy would have probably run to the nurse’s office in tears and fear.
“Mikado-sama, is something wrong? You have been holding your smartphone the entire day…”
Rinka called out to Mikado, sitting next to him.
“Don’t mind it. I just think of my phone as another part of my body.”
“Another part of your body?! Did you become a hybrid?!”
“Most likely.”
“But when did that…” Rinka started tearing up. “I might be able to get a doctor from overseas to surgically remove the smartphone…”
“You don’t have to go that far!”
“It’s fine! It’s a doctor I trust! With his information – consent being on-point, he will make sure to tell you ‘You might die from this operation…are you sure about this? Are you really sure about it?’ before it!”
“Isn’t he thinking about the patient a bit too much?!”
Rather than being kind-hearted, it sounded like he was a sadist more than anything. Mizuki started laughing at that, after she took a bite of her bread.
“Rinka-chan, you worry too much~ Mikado-kun is just phone addicted, that’s all~”
“Phone addicted…?” Rinka tilted her head in confusion.
“Yup. If he doesn’t have his phone close to him, he can’t calm down. I’ve been like that before as well. Just by seeing that my battery was getting low, I was having trouble breathing! Like this! Haa…Huff…” Mizuki started shaking with her smartphone in hand.
“I feel like it hasn’t gotten much better?!”
“It’s fine, I just tend to cough up blood whenever I can’t participate in a limited-time event! This is much better than me rolling the gacha in my sleep!”
“I feel like you’ve gotten much worse?!”
This was on a level where she might be better off getting professional help. Then again, once Mikado would win over Kisa to the Kitamikado Family, and Mizuki succeeding the Nanjou Family, she would probably create places to charge your phone everywhere in today’s Japan.
“Also, Mikado-kun! Isn’t it hard to eat while holding your phone? Why not put it down on the table?”
Mikado had his phone in one hand, switching between knife and fork in his other, trying his hardest to cut the steak. He regretted not picking an easier dish, but because of the continuous battle with Kisa, he needed some more calories.
“I can’t put it on the table under any circumstances.”
“Why?”
“…Can’t tell you.”
Mizuki and Rinka both were participants in the love game, so he couldn’t give them any more information than necessary. As of right now, Mikado still didn’t know who even sent this video, nor what kind of aim they had with this.
“Then, how about I feed you mouth to mouth!”
Mizuki put a great amount of pasta in her mouth.
“This isn’t the type of food you could do that with!”
“Eh? Would you have preferred soup then?”
“That would make it even more difficult!”
“You really are selfish, Mikado-kun! Then, here!”
“Mguh?!”
Mizuki stabbed the tomato added to the pasta—an entire tomato—and pushed it right into Mikado’s mouth.
“Ah, that’s not fair, Mizuki-san! I also want to feed Mikado-sama!”
“Mughguh?”
Rinka followed suit, picking up some jelly from her plate, equally stuffing it right into Mikado’s mouth.
“Eh? What, you want to eat some more, Mikado-kun?! You’re just like a baby~! Here, eat some more!”
“Ahh…Haaa…My everything is entering Mikado-sama’s mouth…wonderful…More…eat more, Mikado-sama…”
Mizuki was getting on a high horse, whereas Rinka was more and more excited. They were stuffing more and more into Mikado’s mouth, relentlessly, as he himself found trouble breathing.
The final chime of the day rang, as the students started to leave onto the hallway. Giving it a quick glance outside the window, Mikado couldn’t find his ride waiting at the entrance. If he had to guess, it was probably forced into a traffic jam on the way. Either way, his one chance of escaping had been cut off.
Mikado made his way down the first floor, and headed not the frontal entrance, but the back entrance. He hid in the shadow of the school building’s wall, checking how things were looking. Snipers and overseers were watching the students leaving the front gate, giving Mikado a small hope that they might be busy, but there were a few stationed at the back gate as well.
Two men wearing work clothes, doing some cleaning duties. Their gazes were awfully sharp, their bodies well-built looking like they had metal bars hidden inside their clothes. They clearly didn’t belong here. They must be hiding their guns in these clothes.
If it was just the two, Mikado shouldn’t have any trouble overwhelming them, but in the off-chance that they managed to alarm their allies, even Mikado would have trouble. Today, he had to be especially careful, or the school could turn into a sea of flames. It happened right as Mikado was wondering what he should do.
Someone jumped at his back. Reflexively, Mikado grabbed the attackers arm, throwing them over his shoulder.
“Kya?! Mikado-kun?!”
Understanding that it was Mizuki he was dealing with, Mikado stopped his movement, just carrying her in his arms.
“…Sorry, I thought you were an enemy.”
“Enemy?! What are you fighting, Mikado-kun?!”
“This world’s unfairness.”
“Cool! I wanna join!”
“Once you grow up, you can.” Mikado put his hand on her head, spitting phrases straight out of some shounen manga.
He clearly didn’t have the time for this. He didn’t exactly hate playing along with Kisa’s little sister’s jokes, but right now, he had to find a way to escape first and foremost.
“You’re running away from Onee-chan, right?”
“How did you know?”
“I can tell as much~ There’s so many guards around our school. I don’t know why, but you’re playing a game of hide and seek with Onee-chan, aren’t you?”
“A game of hide and seek…Well, not too far off.”
A game of hide and seek with the life on the line. Where the seeker didn’t hesitate to blow up an entire room.
“Then, then, I’ll play with you as well! I wanna have fun with Mikado-kun and Onee-chan!”
“We’re not playing here. This is a serious battle…” Mikado tried explaining, but Mizuki cut between.
“Since they’re watching both the front and back gate, you want to run away from some other place, right? I know another escape route!”
“Really?!”
“Yup! If you let me join, I’ll tell you!”
“Can’t help it. Please do.”
“Yay!” Mizuki clung to Mikado’s arm, jumping up in joy.
In every situation, she was always going at her own pace.
“And, where is that secret path?”
“Over here!”
Mizuki grabbed Mikado’s hand, pulling him down the hallway. Her walking around the high school division was a daily occurrence, so the students weren’t even surprised anymore at seeing her middle school division uniform. Arriving at the hallway that crossed the courtyard, Mizuki approached the back of the nearest office. On the way stood a light business purpose minivan, with a middle-aged woman carrying boxes from the office. Mizuki called out to her, waving.
“Hiroko-chan! How are you doing~?”
“I’m doing just fine. Seems like you’re brimming with energy as always.” The woman called Hiroko smiled broadly.
“Yup! I’m feeling great!”
“Who is this person…? A subordinate of the Nanjou Family?” Mikado asked Mizuki.
“No~! Hiroko-chan is my friend! She often brings equipment to the school, so we started to talk a bit.”
“Right~!”
The 14-year old girl, and the woman in her forties were lining up shoulders like they had been sisters from birth.
“You sure are amazing, Mizuki…”
“Eh? Mikado-kun just praised me? He just praised me! He said I was the cutest girl in the entire world, and that he wanted to get married!”
“I didn’t say that much!” Mikado retorted with all his might.
“Who’s this handsome guy? Your boyfriend?”
“Yup!”
“Don’t lie as naturally as you breathe!”
“It’s not a lie~ You like my Onee-chan, and eventually, I’ll NTR you from Onee-chan~”
“I see.” Hiroko nodded along.
“Don’t reveal everything like that…” Mikado felt a cold sweat run down his cheek.
At this rate, Hiroko might be locked up by the Nanjou Family because she knows too much about this whole thing going on, even though she’s a pure victim.
“We’re being chased by the great demon lord right now~ Could you maybe let us hide in your car? Just outside the school is fine!”
“The demon lord, huh. Alright, hop on.”
“Thanks~!” Mizuki jumped into the trunk of the car.
Making space for herself as she squashed several other objects in the process, yet Hiroko wasn’t bothered by that in the slightest. Although Mikado was used to Mizuki getting along with everyone, this was crossing the level of just friends, as they set foot into the level of family.
“Sorry, I’ll take you up on that.”
Mikado bowed slightly to Hiroko, and sat down next to Mizuki.
“Sorry that it’s so narrow in here, Mikado-kun!”
“Don’t you apologize! This isn’t even your car!”
“You can sit on my lap if you feel like it~?”
“I feel like I’d squash you beneath me!”
“Would you love me even if I turned into minced meat?”
“I don’t have much confidence in that, sorry.”
Mikado had no taste for necrophilia inside of him. Hiroko sat on the driver’s seat, giving a thumbs up to the two behind her.
“You are as close as actual siblings~ It’s going to shake a lot, so put on your seat belt, okay?”
“Seat belt…? Where…?” Mikado looked around, unable to find it.
“Okaaay~” Mizuki clung to Mikado’s arm.
“Ahh, I’m the seat belt!”
With a sound resembling an explosion the car started moving. Naturally, the sound didn’t originate from the speed, but rather because the engine clearly wasn’t that healthy anymore.
As a result of that, the drive was as bumpy and shaky as it could have been. Yet, it cut between the walking students, not using the brakes in the slightest. Afraid that Mizuki’s slender body could end up thrown around inside the car, Mikado took the role of the seat belt, embracing her in his arms.
“Mikado-kun is attacking me!”
“I’m not!”
“He just sexually assaulted me!”
“That’s even worse!”
“It’s fine, Mikado-kun. Sexually harass me and assault me even more! You can even take off my panties if you feel like it!”
“Why are you begging me now?!”
With Mizuki clinging to Mikado even more, Hiroko’s car drove out of the back entrance. In order to not get any attention from the guards positioned there, Mikado pushed Mizuki onto the floor. Luckily, the windows of the car were small, and high up, guarding any view from them.
Separating from Sousei Academy, Mikado checked his surroundings, as he slowly lifted his body.
“Thanks. It seems like we made it out safely. You can just let us out somewhere around here.”
“Are you sure? I can drive you the rest of the way.” Hiroko asked via the front mirror.
“Then, the amusement park! I wanna go to an amusement park with Mikado-kun!”
“You better learn to hold back a bit!”
“There’s no need for that~ The people in this world are all kind to me, so I can just live as selfish as I want!”
“You’ll regret keeping this kind of philosophy once you grow up!”
Then again, Mikado felt that she might just do that. Even he found himself forgiving Mizuki for a lot. But, before he could say anything else, a jet-black wagon lined up next to the car Mikado was on. Judging from the type of car, it should have passed them a long time ago, but for some reason, it kept up perfectly. Thus, Mikado felt like something was off. The smoked glasses slowly rolled down, as something blinked.
“This bad! Get down!”
“Eh, what what?!”
Mikado covered Mizuki’s head as they threw themselves on the ground, Hiroko hiding her head beneath the steering wheel. A few seconds later, a barrage of bullets riddled the windows of the car with bumps. To that, Hiroko clicked her tongue.
“To think they’d be shooting us. I’m glad I made the windows bullet-proof!”
“Is this person really just a normal citizen?!”
“Yeah she is! After divorcing her hold gambling addiction husband, she went on to marry a shut-in, and is now working as an on office worker to repay the debts left behind by her previous husband! In other words, she’s just a normal 45-year old woman (and mother of two)!”
“I didn’t need that much information!”
Mikado felt like crying now that he heard her backstory. At the same time, his resolve to improve Japan especially for people like her was strengthened yet again.
“We’re flying off! Roll up like an armadillo back there!” The mother of two yelled courageously.
With insanely fast movement, barely visible to the naked eye, she turned the steering wheel, landing a crazy turn as the tires were screaming in agony. The trunk in the back was wrapped up in a tornado of items flowing around Mikado and Mizuki. With swift gear-changing, the car blasted off. The black car followed suit. From the window, they kept on the barrage of bullets, not even caring that this was in the middle of the town.
“Kyaa~ A car chase~!” Mizuki clung to Mikado, clearly enjoying the situation.
The glasses in the back were pierced by bullets, hitting the cardboard boxes. Steam and stimulating scent were leaking out, to which Mikado quickly covered both his and Mizuki’s mouth. But, Mizuki just started leaking his fingers.
“Mikado-kun’s hand is delish!”
“Stop licking! Also, what is this scent?!”
Hiroko ran her fingers through her aging hair.
“A product I was supposed to deliver to a customer! The street price is ten million…Ahh, whatever! Surviving this comes first! I’ll be using the nitro!”
“…Nitro?!”
Mikado showed surprise, but Hiroko didn’t bother that, just pressing the red button next to the steering wheel. Right after, together with a heavy impact, the car went blasting off. Deep red flames came out from the back of the car, showing insane acceleration. Met with the heightened G, Mizuki’s body was pressed against Mikado’s.
“Hahaha! I’m using nitro whenever I tend to get late for a delivery!”
“Don’t use nitro…in public traffic…”
Mikado was completely lost about the existence of Hiroko.
The car took a sudden turn, driving into a back alley, pushing the trash bags and yankees to the side. How many people had she run over until now? Mikado was too scared to ask. Together with Hiroko’s mood improving as she drove, the chaos ensued further, as she herself changed gears. Her eyes were lit up like she had come home to her children greeting her.
Around the time the black car was nowhere in sight anymore, their own car came to a halt. Beneath an overhead of the national highway, their surroundings were dimly-lit, with no other people around. Together with empty ground, filled with gravel, they were surrounded by a rusty fence, only a pitiful amount of weed growing. There was a single man-hole on the road’s surface. Mikado and Mizuki both stepped off the trunk, as Hiroko left the lid of the man-hole with what looked like a crowbar.
“This man-hole is connected to a sewer. Since they marked my car already, it’d be better if you went the rest of the way by foot.”
“Are you some yakuza?”
“I’m working at a perfectly normal occupation. Anyway, I have to get back to my job or the president will cut off my finger! See you later! Good luck!”
Afraid of her boss’ sanctions, the 45ywar old woman went to drive away with her car. Mizuki watched this with two hands on her waist.
“So that’s one of those famous black companies! I won’t forgive them for harassing Hiroko-chan! Next time I get the chance, I’ll throw some durian and surströmming into their company!”
“Better not, Hiroko will die as well.”
Not to mention that the company she’s working at clearly isn’t normal.
Mikado and Mizuki entered the man-hole, climbing down the ladder. The ladder being eaten up by rust, just putting your hand onto it had you hurt badly. At the same time, the fear of falling down at any possible moment didn’t help either. In case an event like this occurred, Mikado went ahead, allowing him to catch Mizuki, who now spoke up above him.
“You’ll be able to see my panties, so don’t look up, okay?”
“Yeah.”
“I’m wearing the same pair as Onee-chan today, but don’t look up, okay?”
“Why do you know what kind of underwear your older sister is wearing…?”
“My hands slipped off, so don’t look up, okay?”
“Wha?! What are you doing?!” Mikado lifted up his head in panic.
What greeted him was the sight of Mizuki holding up her skirt with one hand, openly flashing her panties. With the other hand, she properly held onto the ladder, sticking out her tongue in a teasing manner. Even in the darkness they were in, Mikado could clearly see her white thighs. Her slender legs were radiating with charm, as a sweet scent drifted down to Mikado. Her small behind still had a comfortable volume to it, just a small piece of thin fabric covering her most important body part. Naturally, talking about the design, there is only one that could leave Mikado in such disarray—The omnipotent girly striped panties.
“Ah, Mikado-kun saw! He saw my panties~” Mizuki giggled in joy.
“I was shown more than anything!”
“I didn’t tell you to look, though~ I kept telling you not to, but you still did!”
“You…”
“Oh? Are you angry now, Mikado-kun? Are you going to punish me? That makes sense~ Nobody is here after all, so no matter what perverted things you do to me, nobody is going to help me! So punish me lots!”
“Don’t make a ruckus on the ladder!”
Mizuki wildly gestured with one hand, leaving Mikado with a hold sweat. Mikado would be able to make it unscathed out of this, but the same couldn’t be said for Mizuki if she fell down here. Maybe she just didn’t possess this emotion called fear after all. Or maybe that had gotten numb after living together with that trigger-finger of an older sister. After they made it to the ground safely, Mikado made a mental note to never ever take Mizuki down this place again.
Their surroundings were unexpectedly open, offering paths on both sides of the water flow to walk on. The wall of bricks most likely acted to solidify the concrete street above them, but it clearly didn’t look too healthy anymore. The deeper end of the sewer was wrapped in pitch-black darkness, requiring the flashlight of the smartphone to show their path.
“Ohh, so this is the Sanzu River1! It’s my first time coming here!”
“That’s a sign of bad luck, so how about we stop?”
“I came here a few times in my dreams, you know! Like back when I was buried under concrete!”
“This is getting really depressing, so how about we stop?!”
“If you’re worried, then just make me your pet and take me with you!” Mizuki grabbed Mikado’s hand, splashing up water with the sole of her foot.
It’s like a father and daughter, walking along a street after it had rained. Even though she had tried to seduce Mikado a few seconds prior, Mizuki was now smiling innocently, feeling Mikado a bit relaxed. Having suffered from consecutive attacks ever since this morning, busy evading open fire just a few minutes before, he could finally take a breather in this situation. Or so he thought, but then it happened.
Hearing a distant rumbling, Mikado went back to his wary mode. Mizuki also stopped her feet, looking up at Mikado in confusion.
“What’s wrong? Need to pee?”
“It’s water…”
“Yup, pee is basically water! I know that!”
“That’s not it?!”
“Eh, am I wrong?! Then what exactly is pee?!”
“Stop constantly repeating the word pee already! This is the sound of a flood incoming! Water is being drained!”
Right as Mikado finished his words, a great amount of water came gushing towards them. Yet, Mizuki raised her hands in excitement.
“Woaaah! So Hiroko-chan actually took us to an amusement park! Look at that slashing water!”
“This isn’t some attraction! We have to run!” Mikado grabbed Mizuki to carry her under his arm.
“It’s fine~ If it’s Mikado-kun, you can even win against a flood! Punch, Mikado-kun, punch!”
“As if a man’s fist could win against mother nature!”
“Tch tch tch, you really don’t get it. This isn’t mother nature here~ This tidal wave has been created artificially by human hand~”
“Keep quiet or you’ll bite your tongue!”
“Kyaa~ Mikado-kun slapped me on the butt! So violent~”
In reality, Mikado had only given her a slight bump on the head to make her shut up, but Mizuki naturally wouldn’t play along. Rather, she was getting even more excited. She’d probably watch the world end in a fire with a big grin on her face. That being said, Mikado couldn’t quite do so, so he ran away from the incoming wave with all his might. That being said, even someone trained like Mikado couldn’t win against this disaster approaching him, as the distance between them shrunk more and more.
Seeing the emergency exit in front of his eyes, Mikado mustered the last ounce of his strength. Jumping at the door to frantically open it, he flew inside, quickly closing the door behind him. Though it hit the door as it passed by, a small impact was the only result. That being said, water was slowly entering through the opening between door and floor. Seeing that they were safe, Mikado relaxed his body, letting out a sigh.
His heart was beating frantically. He hadn’t been this adrenaline filled ever since his one-on-one battle with a lion in the savannah. At the same time, Mizuki couldn’t be more calm, just sighing in satisfaction.
“Haaa, that was fun, Mikado-kun!”
“Glad to hear that…”
“I wonder who created this wave? Maybe Onee-chan?”
“Probably…though I didn’t think she would go this far…”
In other words, Kisa must be panicking quite a bit herself. She must want that evidence on Mikado’s phone at all costs. For now, Mikado and Mizuki had to sit still, waiting to see if there was another wave incoming. In the midst of their break, Mikado decided to gather some more proof, starting a voice recording app on his phone.
“That reminds me, there’s something I wanted to ask, Mizuki.”
“What is it~? The password for my bank account? Since it’s you, I’ll tell you! 1, 4, 2…”
“Don’t teach me something like that! If you balance runs low, I’ll be the one you’ll doubt first!”
“I won’t do something like that~ Because this is the balance of our married life!”
“I see…Well anyway, is this here real?”
Mikado moved the smartphone over, showing Mizuki the video evidence he had received this morning. Shown on there was still the scenery where Kisa admitted her feelings for Mikado.
“Eh……” Mizuki saw this, and swallowed her breath.
If she showed a reaction like ‘Who took this?!’ or ‘When was that filmed?!’, that would heighten the credibility of it…but so far, nothing of that sort came.
“And? You should know, right? Did this conversation really happen between you and Kisa? Is this video real?”
“Um…Well…Ahaha…what should I do about this…” Mizuki showed an awkward laugh.
Rarely enough, she seemed awfully serious, instead of her usual airheaded attitude.
“What would you do…if this was real?”
“I’d use it to checkmate Kisa.”
“…Right. That’s why you’re fighting in the first place…” Mizuki cast her face downward. Her slender shoulders looked even smaller than before.
Standing up, Mizuki sat down again, this time between Mikado’s legs. With eyes resembling Kisa’s, she looked up at him.
“If you listen to my request, I’ll tell you.”
“What is it?”
Mizuki ran her slender index finger along her lips.
“Kiss me.”
“That’s…” Mikado hesitated.
“I know. You want to have your first kiss with Onee-chan. But, I want it as well…No, not just that, I want to have Mikado’s first in everything…That’s why…okay?” Mizuki put her hand on Mikado’s shirt, approaching his face.
She gave off the same scent as her older sister. The palm of her hand was shaking in worry, and anticipation. Her red lips were seeking Mikado’s. No man on earth would have been able to just shake her away. If Mikado didn’t have a person he longed for already, he might have just given in. However—
“Sorry.”
Mikado softly held Mizuki’s head, pressing his lips on her cheek.
“Mm…!”
A soft sensation hit his lips. Mizuki’s body twitched softly, as the hand holding onto Mikado’s shirt gained more strength. Even after Mikado separated his lips from her cheek, the girl showed no signs of moving away from him. She just leaned against him, as a soft voice left her mouth.
“W-Wow…it was just a kiss on the cheek, and it felt this good…What would happen if you kissed me on the mouth…?” Her eyes were looking up at Mikado in lust. “Hey…Mikado-kun…?” She poked at his chest.
Unlike her usual innocent facial expression, she looked like a maiden in love now. Met with this, Mikado had to turn his heart into a demon.
“Not on the mouth.”
“Just touching them a bit is fine…I won’t tell anybody.”
“No.”
“Then, I won’t tell you. Since you didn’t kiss me on the mouth. I’m not that easy of a woman.”
Mizuki puffed out her cheeks. Even sulking Mizuki was cute. In the end, it was Mikado only who had given her this extra service, but he didn’t hate it.
“That was the first time you kissed someone on the cheek, right? You didn’t do that with Onee-chan yet?”
“Y-Yeah…”
“Ehehe, love you, Mikado-kun~”
Mizuki had her cheeks burn in a strong red, as she clung to Mikado.
By the time they made it home, and safe from all the danger going on, the sun had already started to set. Mikado had separated with Mizuki, arriving at the residence, and could finally take a breather. Even Kisa wouldn’t dare to attack the Kitamikado Family’s main residence. Because that would result in an all-out war.
Being attacked by waves in the sewers, a military helicopter chasing them the second they got above ground, Mikado’s clothes had suffered a lot through the day, drenched with sweat and water from the sewers, as well as half of his clothes scorched . As Mikado walked down the hallway, water dripping from him, his butler Nishida had his eyes open.
“Young master, what happened? You look like you went through hell.”
“Well…I was hit by some guerilla rain.”
No way could he explain that Kisa was on a full-blown assault.
“I wonder. I didn’t know that rain nowadays could melt clothes…How scary. Do please take a bath right away, because you will catch a cold otherwise.”
“I’m fine right now.”
Mikado rather prefered to check if the data on his smartphone was still safe, but his butler wouldn’t give in.
“That I cannot ignore. This unworthy me will make sure that even the smallest part of the young master’s body is perfectly clean!”
“I’m really fine, so none of that!”
“We’ll be having red rice today.”
“What is going to happen2?!”
There was nothing scarier than a treacherous friend. Mikado ran away from his butler, escaping to his own room, and locking the door behind him. Adding to that, he put on the various authentication systems, allowing nobody to enter anymore. In this private room, where even his parents weren’t able to enter, Mikado could now finally take a breather.
Mikado took out the smartphone from his pocket, replaying the evidence. The data was perfectly fine, to Mikado’s relief. The day was filled with opportunities for it to break, such as stray bullets, water, or even fire, so he had prepared himself for the worst, but that was unnecessary in the end.
Mikado booted up his PC, transferring the data, saving the data on more than 100 cloud sites, even those outside the country. On top of that, he saved it on several USB sticks and seperate disks, locking them away in his room in various locations. His life depended on this data, so he couldn’t treat it lightly. Once he made sure that everything was safe, Mikado moved to the next part of his plan, calling the Metropolitan Police Department.
“…Kitamikado here.”
“Mikado-sama! It has been quite some time! Thank you very much for the party a while ago! What kind of business do you have today?”
The person on the end of the phone sounded like she was currently bowing down as she talked. On a side note, his phone partner was Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police, but there was nobody standing higher in Japan than the Kitamikado Family.
“I’d like a video analysis tool.”
“Video analysis…?” The general sounded confused.
“There’s a video I want to analyze, so don’t you have a program that would allow me to do so?”
“We do have that, yes…But, what kind of video are we talking about?”
“Not something you need to concern yourself with. It’s related to a criminal…and we’re talking about nationwide level.” Mikado said with a sharp tone.
He couldn’t exactly tell him that the video contained a sweet confession of Kisa.
“I-I am terribly sorry! Naturally, I will send you the tool right away!”
“Please do. Japan’s future depends on you.”
After Mikado told the general his mail address, it didn’t take more than 10 seconds until he received the download URL for the program. What fearful working speed. Mikado ran the video of Kisa and Mizuki through this program, starting his analysis.
At around the same time, inside the Nanjou Family’s residence. Kisa had readied her high-tech laptop, put down on the bed, as she was analyzing the heart-throbbing confession Mikado’s. The tool for the analysis had been developed by a research office under the wings of the Nanjou Family. For the Nanjou Family, working in fraud and such often, they were always on the newest step with software that could possibly see through their actions.
Though Mikado was desperate to steal this footage at all costs, it made it look like this confession truly happened, but there was no proof as of right now. The entire thing might have just been part of Mikado’s plan.
Sitting on the bed, Kisa watched the analysis happen without breathing, her heart beating hard enough to almost leap out of her chest. And finally, the results were shown on the screen.
Results of the video data analysis:
Image Procession—true
High Frequency Passing Procession—true
Voice Manufacturing Procession—true
Voice Print Comparison—true
Result of the analysis…this footage has not been created artificially.
Kisa collapsed onto the bed. Because of the ongoing tension, her fingers, knees, her entire body was shaking. Her head went blank, only to be filled again with a rush of happiness and bliss.
“Mikado…likes me.”
She told herself with a sweet voice. Her room, which she should have been used to, now looked like a different world, making her want to cry tears of joy. She embraced herself, trying to subdue the desire of meeting Mikado right this instant. This was the first time she felt that she had been born in this world. Knowing that Mikado loved her, she truly didn’t care if every other human being on earth despised her. That was probably the reason as well.
“Onee-chan! Let’s play!”
Normally, Kisa would always get angry at Mizuki for suddenly entering her room, but now she just looked at the screen in a daze.
“What are you watching?” Mizuki took a peek at the laptop screen.
Shown there was the video where Mikado admitted his love for Kisa.
“Eh…that’s…” Mizuki’s eyes opened wide.
To that, Kisa let out a muffled laugh.
“Ehehehe…amazing, right…? Mikado…actually likes me…He liked me this entire time…He loves me…I’m happy…So…So happy…” Her voice felt like it was about to melt away.
Her head was turning, her waist getting tingly. Even her cheeks were burning strong.
“Ahh, so you realized.”
“Realized? So you knew, Mizuki?”
“Quite a while ago. Also, it was pretty obvious. Both you and Mikado could only look at each other.” She said with a sigh.
“I see…”
“You’re not angry?”
“Eh? Why would I be angry?”
“I kept quiet even though I knew, right? Because I didn’t want him to get stolen. Wouldn’t you normally threaten to drown me at Tokyo Bay?”
“Well…who cares about that now. Mikado is only looking at me, so it’s fine…” Kisa crossed her hands in front of her chest, sighing in bliss.
Whereas she would be angry, she now acted like a Buddha. As long as she had Mikado, she didn’t need anything else.
“…That’s not fair. If you’re that happy, I can’t cut between you two…Because I also love Onee-chan.” Mizuki muttered, resting her small head in Kisa’s lap.
