Chapter 404 The Missing Hinako (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)

"Takase Fumito has a problem."

After leaving the housing agency, Sakaki Makoto and Miss Miyano returned home, packed their things, and planned to send her to live at Dr. Agasa's house.

No matter how fast Ginjiu moved, it was impossible to send people over immediately to keep an eye on 'Haihara Ai'.

There must always be a buffer period.

But it won’t be too long, two or three days at most.

This is why Sakaki is eager to rent a house.

However.

The store manager of Takase Real Estate, Takase Fumito, gave him a feeling of disobedience.

That feeling is amazing, like

He was targeted, but the target was not him.

"Um."

Miss Miyano folded her clothes and put together the things she bought today:

"The way he looked at me was wrong."

Girls' minds are delicate and sensitive.

If others have evil intentions, they will always notice it immediately.

Just now in the agency, Fumito Takase kept staring at her with his peripheral vision. Although he was not unscrupulous, he

It's also very explicit.

"yes."

Sakaki narrowed his eyes slightly:

"But the way he looks at you is not lustful, just like"

"Observing prey."

Stopping her movements, Miss Miyano said:

"And the furnishings in his agency, don't you think it's strange?"

Sakaki recalled the scene at that time

A sudden realization.

He knew where the dissonance came from.

In Takase Fumito's shop, there are many children's murals on the wall, such as the children's alphabet.

If this is a personal preference, of course there is no problem, but...

The 23-year-old Takase Fumito seems to be trying his best to show a sense of maturity as an 'adult'.

Like a child looking forward to being recognized by others.

These two styles are contradictory.

"Asunder."

Sakaki Makoto repeated the only word on the alphabet and looked at Miss Miyano:

"This is an adverb used to modify a certain action. Your English is better than mine. Do you know what it means?"

"It depends on where it is used."

Miss Miyano frowned and thought hard:

"If you put it in my profession, the word Asunder."

"It means something was torn apart."

Torn to pieces.

Is it idealistic or materialistic?

There were too few clues, and Sakaki couldn't deduce Takase Fumito's thoughts from just one word.

perhaps

It’s not necessarily that the other person is trying to commemorate his broken love.

"I don't want to anymore, let's go."

"Yesterday was the day to collect domestic garbage."

Sakaki took the bag and garbage bag from Miss Miyano and said:

"But I forgot to throw it away. I have to wait until next time."

"I'll take you to Dr. Ari's house and have something to eat on the way."

"good."

As the night gets darker, Kabukicho begins to open for business.

People are hurrying on the street, and scantily clad girls stand at the entrance of the store, holding signboards, twisting their waists, and winking at every passing customer.

Ahead is the famous Cowherd Street, which is a ‘paradise’ for women.

At 8:40 pm, business was booming at a certain Cowherd Club.

"Hey, Fujioka!"

The back door of Cowherd Club is completely different from the bustling store. The loud music is as quiet as mosquitoes and flies, as if you are in another world.

A man with an open mind and a strangely dressed man came out and shouted to Fujioka who was smoking:

"Why are you still in a daze?"

"Someone named you!"

"Miss Hinako, you haven't been here for half a month."

Fujioka sighed, with unconcealable sadness:

"I can't get through the phone. Where did she go?"

"Hello!"

The man grabbed him and shouted:

"Brother Ishikawa has taught us more than once that the most taboo thing for a cowherd is to be emotional!"

"Miss Hinako is just a guest!"

"When she wants to come, she will come!"

"But she can't get through on the phone either."

Fujioka was very sad:

"Even if she has something to ask for, she should tell me."

"We made an appointment to meet."

"You even exchanged phone numbers with your guests?!"

The strange man was furious, grabbed him and walked into the club:

"Follow me to see Brother Ishikawa!"

Fujioka lowered his head and let him lead him to an office on the third floor in despair.

Boom, boom, boom!

"Enter."

squeak

The door opened, and the man dragged Fujioka in and rushed in:

"Brother Ishikawa, Fujioka broke the rules!"

"What's wrong?"

Ishikawa Hide put down the business report and looked at the two of them:

"Xianghe, please don't get excited. If you have anything to say, please speak slowly."

"yes."

The strange man named Xianghe turned around and closed the door, and the room instantly became quiet:

"Brother Ishikawa, you have always taught us to distinguish the boundaries with our guests and not to cross them."

"But Fujioka contacted Miss Hinako privately and broke the rules you set!"

"oh?"

Ishikawa Hide was stunned for a moment, then asked:

"Fujioka, do you really have personal contact with Miss Hinako?"

"yes"

"How far has it developed?"

"Okay, ready to live together."

"That's it."

Ishikawa Hide breathed a sigh of relief and his eyes became stern:

"Nothing can be done without rules."

"Fujioka, you have been in the club for three years and you rarely make mistakes. I have always trusted you."

"Now. I'll give you two choices."

He held up two fingers:

"One, immediately apologize to Miss Hinako, cut off contact, and deduct three months of performance bonus."

"Two, leave and join a new group. Since you have performed well in the past, the punishment will be waived."

Having an affair with a guest can be a big or small matter.

There are many cowherds who exchange contact information with guests without permission. Although it is not allowed on the surface, but...

Everyone has various reasons.

Just establish your authority, being aggressive is not Ishikawa Hide's style.

"By the way, Brother Ishikawa."

The strange man congratulated him. He came forward and whispered a few words.

"What?"

Ishikawa Hide frowned:

"Miss Hinako has been missing for half a month?"

"Fujioka, what's going on?"

"The night half a month ago was the last day Hinako came to the store."

Fujioka lowered his head and spoke softly:

"She was very happy to tell me that day that she had found a nice house with sunshine on all sides and a cheap price."

"Before going to see the house, she called me, and then I couldn't contact her again."

The corner of his mouth twitched, Ishikawa Hide said helplessly:

"Since you can't contact the other party, why don't you do nothing for the past half month?"

"No!"

Raising his head, Fujioka pinched his neck and shouted:

"I called the police!"

"The police went to Hinako's home to investigate, but found no clues. Later,"

"They sent someone to the housing agency again and learned that Miss Hinako disappeared after viewing the house."

The sound of sobbing came, and he choked:

"Hinako came to Tokyo to work alone and has no relatives here."

"The police said that she did not return to her hometown and no body was found. They could only investigate her as a missing person and asked me to come back and wait for news."

"This wait is only half a month."

"Why are you crying!"

Seeing his unsatisfactory look, Ishikawa Hide slapped the table and became furious:

“Can crying solve the problem?!”

"Miss Hinako is a customer of the store, and she disappeared in Kamishingumi's territory. If we turn a blind eye to this."

"What qualifications do you have to be called a gangster?"
