Chapter 62：Leave! (2/2)
”Who-!” When Shirotsuka Sanae came down, Haruko immediately noticed her presence as she looked up and saw a person with a kind of military uniform. However, when she was about to raise her voice, her mouth was closed by the person's hand. It was at this time that she realized who it was. ”Mmhm?!”
Shirotsuka Sanae didn't say anything as she just took out a communication device. It then showed a few messages.
”Don't say anything or raise your voice.”
”I just want to ask you a couple of questions according to your family situation and the reason why your family has stopped their investigation. If you understand, then type your information in this device.”
She was afraid of alarming the people outside since they were elites, so even after telling her this, she didn't let go of her hand from Haruko's mouth. They conversed through 'messages' so it wouldn't make any sound.
”You're Teacher Shirotsuka Sanae, right?” She asked.
Sanae didn't have time to lie since she didn't use anything to hide her identity, so she nodded.
”How are you here? I thought this place is surrounded by elites from the Yajima House?”
”You don't need to know.” She looked at her with a cold gaze.
Yajima Haruko frowned but ultimately typed, ”Who sent you?”
”...” Sanae pondered for a moment before typing with one hand. ”Student council.”
”Student Council? Not Tasha Carter?” Haruko asked. She was perplexed. She couldn't find any reason for the student council to send her, so it must be for a personal reason and not the student council. And with her saying 'student council,' she knew that the person who sent her would either be Tasha Carter or Tabata Rea. After considering the situation, she took a gamble on Tasha Carter.
”...” Sanae didn't answer her for a while.”If Tasha Carter sent you, I'll explain about my family situation.”
”Why?” She didn't understand.
”Personal reason.” Haruko looked at Shirotsuka Sanae with a serious expression.
After pondering for a while, she typed, ”Kai Carter and I have a deal for this situation.”
The moment she heard Kai's name, she was shocked. Haruko typed hurriedly with energy, ”Is it really from him?”
Sanae nodded.
”Understood.” She wanted her to release her hand, but considering the situation, it wouldn't be possible. She just typed again, ”Tell him to leave United Asia together with Tasha Carter. The Katsuragi family and the Ikeda family have joined forces and are planning something big and they're going to execute it in a few days... I don't know the exact time, but it will come soon.”
”What's their plan?”
”I'm not sure about that, but it might be something related to killing those two. This is just my speculation as Ikeda Kenzo asked us to stop the investigation only for a week. That's why I'm sure they're going to do it this week. So please come back and tell them to leave this place.”
”They're trying to raise the money to send their parents away from this problem.”
”There's no time left. They need to leave right now! It doesn't matter what method they use, they must leave this place right now!” She even glared at Sanae.
”Still, I don't know whether you're telling me the truth or not.” Sanae looked at her.
Haruko didn't type again. Instead, she pointed her finger at a picture with a beautiful frame on her desk.
Sanae turned her head and saw the picture. It was a picture of three children, and somehow, she knew three of them, and that made her surprised. It was a picture of Kai, Michelle, and Yajima Haruko in their childhood.
Haruko then typed, ”Kai and I are childhood friends, though he has forgotten about me. He saved my life, and this time, I'll save his.”
”...” After seeing that picture, Sanae could somehow know she was telling the truth. ”I'll try to tell them about this, but considering how they have no money for this, it will take several days.”
Haruko was angry about this. If she could, she would transfer the money to Kai directly. Sadly, her device was confined by her father, so she couldn't do that.
”No matter what, they need to leave this place right now! He has that Ayaka, right? Just scam her or something and use that money to get away from this place as soon as possible!”
”...” Shirotsuka Sanae paused a little before typing, ”All right. I'll tell him this.”
”And please say Yajima Haruko… No, Sakura will love him forever…” She looked at Sanae with a sad expression.
Sanae only nodded her head. ”Take this device with you since I might need to ask a few more questions later. There's only my contact there.”
Haruko was slightly surprised, but she gratefully accepted it. At the very least, she had a means of communication.
She then leaped to the ceiling and disappeared into the dark. Haruko didn't yell or anything. She only clutched the device in her hand tightly as it was something very important to her. It wasn't because of the device itself, but because she might be able to contact Kai after the situation ended through this device.
She said inwardly, ”Kai… when all of this is over, I'll surely visit you.”
Shirotsuka Sanae didn't care about this, as this wasn't in the scope of her job. She just calmly retreated from the Yajima House. However, after running several hundred meters, she was stopped by almost thirty people.
