683 681 Francs apology (2/2)
Diaz still doesn't seem to have forgotten his grudge against Zero Thread. I just heard the name, and the atmosphere changed.
”Found zero lead”
”Is that true?
”Mm-hmm. So I missed it”
”Heh...?
I'm scared of Diaz's smile now! Fran can do what he usually does!
I'm laughing on the surface. But on the inside, dark emotions must be swirling.
”Can I ask why?
”Mmm.”
And Fran said. Discover Zero Thread in one place, nearly kill him, and then talk about it until you miss him.
I won't tell you everything. If I tell you where Zero Thread is, you're going to kill him now. Besides, the circumstances of Weena Lane would not be something to speak of lightly.
”I mean, do you really think I missed it to use his help in a big request and pay back that debt? Or was it tied to a kid named that Romeo?
”... not the right answer, but like that”
In the first place, Fran doesn't know exactly how he feels either.
”Hmm...... So, you're telling me to miss zero lead, too?
I stared at Fran jizzily with my eyes that Diaz didn't make me feel emotional. I'm not even staring, but I feel terribly oppressed.
It's an atmosphere where lies and deception are unacceptable.
But Fran's next words were unexpected to me and to Diaz.
”Why?”
”Huh? Didn't you come to tell me to miss my zero lead?
”No.”
Fran denies Diaz's words. I just thought I was gonna convince you to forgive Zero Thread, too, but apparently it was a mistake.
”It was my decision to miss the zero lead. It's none of Diaz's business.”
”... Hmm”
”Of course, I want Diaz to give up killing Zero Thread, too. But Diaz's feelings belong to Diaz.”
'But if you do, maybe you two will fight, huh? Are you sure?
”Not good, but I can't help it. It's not like we've lost what Zero Thread did.”
That's it, and now Fran stared at Diaz.
”So I can't stop Diaz from following Zero Thread. But...”
”But?”
”Diaz can't stop me from trying to protect the Zero Threads either”
”Fran...”
”I'm sorry.”
Fran bowed his head deeply to Diaz, who shrugged. I suppose Diaz is prepared to fall in love with the traitor.
But now it was Fran's turn to be surprised.
”... I have nothing to apologize for”
Fran leans her neck towards Diaz, who opened her mouth with a strange and serene look.
”I was originally told in Chiara's will not to do anything hateful. Instead, I was trying to disobey it, and I had to be pissed off.”
”Diaz......”
”But I want to sort out my feelings a little bit. I'm sorry, will you come home today?
”Mmm...”
”... I'm sorry”
