Chapter 218: On the Way Back Frouild, but neither Car for a while

I should apologize first

“Car rudely to you earlier” [Ryou bad by it, but why did you act like that back there?” [Carm]

He was cal back his ery after that, but…

“Because I didn’t want you to say anything there I didn’t want you or the other euy called Wanz is going to tell the people there in thatif the uncooperative people end up getting labeled”

It’s normal to refuse a deal when you don’t like the conditions or don’t agree with the reasons given, but ’e Once the idea called ‘cooperation’ has infected everyone, and it ceases to be a ‘conclusion’ and becomes a ‘premise’, then those that refuse will be treated as ‘villains’

“Not wanting to give in to peer pressurepeace The one who disrupted Wanz’s uy Of course, I played the villain because I believed there was a need for it, but either way, just one villain was enough” [Ryouht’ve been the case” [Car after another withthat so was off That Wanz was just too suspicious Perhaps he has an agenda of his own behind his suggestions of working together and preventing cri would definitely give the other participants a bad iing mud onto one’s reputation

That’s why… You toldquiet, your actions becaht, Boss?

And to make sure of that, you acted the way you did It’s said that people have an easier tiardless of what you said, I’m sure a lot of the adults back there weren’t happy with you since you’re a child and yet you acted so arrogantly It’s also their first ti you, so that ht you were the son of so store for fun I’ht the sa me to keep quiet, you made it look like I had no authority and couldn’t disobey your order,it evenon your own… Aht, Boss?” [Ryouma]

“I’s without needing ” [Ryouma]

“Don’t mock er This ht be a first I know he’s worried abouta face like that because ofyou, Carm-san I trust you That’s why I want to be able to entrust everything to you if the worst were to happen As long as you’re there and everyone else is also there, then I’m not needed The Bamboo Forest Laundromat will be able to operate without problem” [Ryouma]

“That’s why it’s okay to throw yourself away? Why do you keep trying to sacrifice yourself alone!?” [Carm]

“Because so, so must take responsibility when the time calls for it A boss is someone who protects his workers At least, that’s what I believe But of course, resignation is always a last resort” [Ryouma]

“But still! …Huh? Last resort?” [Car such a weird face for? I said I’ for the worst, but it’s not as if I’ already” [Ryouht in it, you can’t free yourself without getting hurt We ed to notice the trap and free ourselves, but in the end, we didn’t cooperate with the others and gave a bad ireed with Wanz

There is a fear and a reluctance to disrupting peace, and I know all too well the risk that coeance that could result from it That’s why I wanted to ensure that I would be able to protect my store and my employees even in the worst case scenario That was his duty as their boss

But…

“Being ostracized is just a what-if We don’t actually knohat’s going to happen, so if nothing happens, there’s no need for me to sacrificeas I haven’t coer while I remain an investor who only deals with financial-related matters, and the situation would pretty much be the same as e have now” [Ryouma]

Also, even if I end up unable to do my business at Gimuru, I could just take it to a different city For exao, where the feudal lord’s manor is

Reinhart-san did personally ask me to start a branch there as soon as I can, andat theaway from home

It’s been nearly one year since I started otten used to it, but it’s not as if it has to be at this town Gio are also both within the Jao hoet everyone’s opinion first

There should still be so we can do

“I understand you’re worried about me, but please don’t make a face like that Instead, let’s look forward and do e can to avoid the worst case scenario It’s precisely during tiood look at the situation and try to fix the situation So, can you lend th, Carm-san?” [Ryouma]

When I said that, Carain, but again he failed Each tie a little Apparently, he hiry or sad

In the end, he just sighed deeply

“Boss” [Carm]

“Yes?” [Ryouma]

“It washypothetically for a while now” [Carht” [Ryouma]
