Chapter 166 Part 1

Accident (1) ~Here Comes the Chance~

Wednesday, August 8th.

After being informed of the arrangement with his half-elder sister for the first time in about a month, Yuu was heading to a hotel in the downtown area of ​​Omiya City, the largest city in the prefecture, by car.

The car, which was driven by a security personnel, drove into the underground parking lot and parked.

As it was early afternoon on a weekday, there were hardly any cars parked and the place was empty.

Being the first to get out of the car from the back seat, Kanako closed the door and looked around to make sure there were no suspicious people around, which was the usual practice.

Right then, she caught sight of three women walking in their direction, their footsteps echoing on the concrete.

Kanako turned her palm toward the inside of the car to tell them to stay inside, and then stood on guard, but relaxed her guard when she saw the person leading the group.

Yuu, who was inside the car, must have been able to see them as well. As expected, he didn’t open the door, but he lowered the tinted power window and looked at that person directly.

「Yuu-sama! Ah, thank goodness.」

「Rumiko-san, it’s been a while.」

「It’s been a while, hasn’t it? It looks like the message didn’t reach you. Oops, we have no time to dally around.」

「Huh?」

A woman named Fujiki from the Toyota Sakuya Memorial Foundation was in charge of his meetings with his half-elder sisters, and the communication was usually done by phone.

Inui Rumiko, an official from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, never showed up in person, so he found it unusual.

She was dressed in the same business style as when they met last time, a pure white open-collar shirt and a navy-blue tight skirt.

That said, she had a curvy body that aroused one’s male instincts.

Today, too, she had her hair tied up and was wearing inverted triangle red-rimmed glasses, so, as usual, she gave off the impression of a female teacher who appeared in an adult video.

She was 30 years old, so she was almost twice as old as the current Yuu.

However, for Yuu, who was originally 40 years old, she was a woman who exuded such strong adult sex appeal that he couldn’t help but see her in a sexual light.

Rumiko was accompanied by two well-built women behind her.

Despite the fact that it was midsummer, they were dressed in black suits, and even while Yuu and Rumiko were talking, they vigilantly watched out for the surrounding area with sharp eyes, making them look very much like security personnel.

Rumiko looked at both Kanako and Yuu, then spoke with a serious expression.

「A problem has arisen and this hotel can no longer be used. You will need to get going at once.」

「Understood. Should we go back for today?」

「Um, there’s something I’d like to talk to Yuu-sama about, so would it be okay if I come with you?」

「Then, please take the passenger seat.」

Rumiko nodded and gave instructions to the two behind her.

「You two, please meet up with the others in the room and keep watch. Ask the person in charge over there for further instructions.」

「Understood.」

「Then, right away.」

With crisp movements, the two moved back the way they had come, and Rumiko opened the passenger door and got in.

Then she instructed the driver where to head.

◇ ◇ ◇

A little over 10 minutes after leaving the underground parking lot.

The place they arrived at was a run-of-the-mill business hotel near Omiya Park.

Perhaps they had been told in advance, they climbed the emergency stairs and were shown to a room on the third floor without even needing to check in.

The room was a single one.

As soon as they entered, they could see the door to the unit bath and the closet facing each other, and when they went inside, they found that the rather large bed took up more than half of the room.

There was a long desk facing the wall, and in the corner was a 17-inch CRT TV. It was the type into which you had to insert coins to watch.

Without a doubt, there must be some adult channels, too.

However, from his experience of reading those kinds of books in this world, they were completely aimed at women, so Yuu was not sure if the contents would be something he would enjoy.

The space between the desk and the bed was so narrow that if you pulled out the chair to sit down, you would no longer be able to get through.

The only other amenities in the room were an electric kettle for boiling water and a mini-fridge.

From what Rumiko said as soon as they entered the room, it seemed that this was a room they had secured with a long-term contract for emergencies like this one, or for sudden overnight stays.

Prior to his rebirth, there was a time when Yuu left for the countryside on a sudden business trip, and as the time happened to coincide with a festival, he couldn’t find a place to stay, as even capsule hotels and manga cafes – they weren’t called internet cafes back then – were full, which put him in trouble.

So he had no choice but to stay in a love hotel in the suburbs with his lonesome, and felt miserable.

Compared to that, as expected of a government official. It was a blessed situation.

Without revealing those inner feelings, Yuu sat on the bed and decided to ask about the so-called problem.

Incidentally, Rumiko had pulled a chair out from under the desk, turned it sideways, and sat down.

Kanako and Touko had been standing since they had entered the room, but after getting urged by Yuu, they sat on the bed.

「I’m sorry for making you come all the way here. The truth is, the woman who was supposed to serve as your partner today was caught in a traffic accident the night before last.」

「Huh?! T, then, is she okay?」

「Yes. Fortunately, it was not life-threatening, and she is fully conscious. It’s just that, not only does she have a cracked hip bone, she also has sprains and bruises on both her legs and shoulders, making it difficult for her to walk on her own, and according to the diagnosis, apparently it will take two months for her to fully recover.」

「I see… Well, as long as there was no danger to her life…」

Even though Yuu had never met her before, she was his half-elder sister and they were supposed to spend a passionate time together at that hotel, so it was probably his humane side that made him feel sympathetic to her.

However, if that was all there was to it, there should be no need to go to the trouble of hurriedly changing the location like this.

Or rather, if she was caught in a traffic accident and suffered a serious injury the night before last, they should have let him know in advance; so he thought.

As if to answer Yuu’s question, Rumiko said with a wry smile.

「It seems that after the driver contacted her company, she was taken to the hospital by ambulance, and then told to rest for a while. But the person in question couldn’t give up on today’s plan, so she tried to forcefully make her way there on crutches, but she fell near the entrance and was caught by a nurse. We got contacted by the hospital at the very last minute, so we were unable to call your home in time…」

「I see.」

As expected, he couldn’t do it with someone who had a cracked waist.

She would most likely cry out in pain every time she moved, so she was in no condition to have sex.

If she wanted to meet him that badly, they could just arrange another opportunity after her injury healed.

Yuu, who had no shortage of sex partners now, took the matter in such a leisurely manner.

However, Rumiko suddenly furrowed her eyebrows and began to speak with a serious expression.

「The problem is… she was being chased by some people.」

「Huh?」

「We won’t know the details until we ask the person in question, but… It seems she was persistently chased all the way to the park, and right when she got out of the park, she was run over by a taxi. The shoulder bag she had at that moment, as she lay on the ground. Not only her wallet and other valuables, but even her notebook with today’s plan written in it ended up getting stolen, and that’s the problem.」

「Hmm…」

「As such, just in case, we asked you to move to another location. We have also dispatched some personnel to keep watch on the room we reserved, so as soon as any suspicious people show up, they will apprehend them and contact us.」

So far, the phone in the room hadn’t rung, so it seemed the so-called suspicious people hadn’t shown up.

Whether the goal was to steal the opportunity to meet Yuu, or if it was just a robbery, would be clarified once they investigated the case further.

「Even though her belongings were stolen, we didn’t give her Yuu-sam’s name or contact information, so there is nothing to be worried about. It’s just that, over the last year or two, there have been signs of break-ins at the foundation’s facilities, and cases of staff being followed late at night on several occasions, so I wonder if this incident is also related to that…」

「That sounds scary. Do you have any idea who is targeting them?」

「I think there is a huge chance that it’s the work of a far-left organization that follows the male-sharing movement and won’t shy away from even committing crimes.」

The matter of Yuu and his half-elder sister making babies and examining whether or not the male-female ratio of the children born show any imbalance was naturally a top-secret matter.

He was previously told that the entity serving as a bridge between his late father’s wives, his mistresses, and their children was the Toyota Sakuya Memorial Foundation.

So if the foundation was being targeted by unscrupulous people, he would inevitably get worried.
