Chapter 1348. School Festival A Part 9 Amber

Dogagagaga!!

The armored carrying us started to drive.

「 Ugh. 」

「 Woah 」

「 Hold onto the railing 」

Kurose Anju told the Ishigami siblings.

Armored vehicles are really uncomfortable to ride.

Megu, Nei, and Edie are holding to the railings too.

「 Oh, aah, what’s this!? 」

「 Do something about it! 」

Ishigami Mizuki looks at me puffing, but…

「 I don’t ride cars unless they’re Rolls-Royce! 」

「 Then, why don’t you get off the car and let the enemy capture you? 」

I said.

「 If an enemy kidnaps you, who knows what they’ll do to you, even if you’re a daughter of the Ishigami house 」

I should scare her a little.

We already nailed down the rebels in Kouzuki SS.

I think we’ve succeeded in flushing out most of the other people in the police department.

What’s left is for Kudou-papa’s unit to clean up.

I think that we removed most of the enemies at school.

「 W-Whose fault do you think is that Onii-sama and I got involved in such a terrible situation? 」

「 T-That’s right! Putting us in such a dangerous situation and making us ride this car that I don’t even know 」

Geez, the stupidity of these siblings is abysmal.

「 It was you who willingly went to our school, right? We didn’t invite you to come 」

I returned the argument.

I need to part ways with these siblings as soon as possible.

「 Well, that’s because we came to tell you about Kuromiya Motoko-san… 」

「 That’s right, you were still the cause of this! 」

Err.

「 But, weren’t you the ones who let Koda, a weird guy take advantage and bring such dangerous individuals with you? 」

「 T-That’s. 」

「 W-We didn’t know about Koda’s true nature! We’re the victims here! We don’t need you complaining about us 」

Now they’re getting angry instead.

「 If you use that logic, then we’re victims too 」

Edie laughs.

Then.

『 Well, thank you for riding with us today. The train departs from Shinagawa, stops at Osaki, Gotanda, Meguro, Ebisu, Shibuya, Harajuku, Yoyogi, and Shinjuku. Next stop is Osaki! 』

A funny announcement comes to the armored vehicle we were riding.

This voice.

『 Yes, your driver is Kyouko-san! 』

Kyouko-san’s the one driving the car?

『 I heard that they can’t move the Kouzuki SS units, and Kudou’s also busy, so I had to appear. In fact, I wanted to do the stand-up speech I had her do earlier, but you know… 』

『 What are you talking about! You were the one who ordered me to do that, Kyouko-sama! 』

Anya speaks

She’s using the extension phone.

Seems like there’s also a microphone in this place so she can hear whatever we hear over here.

『 Well, it’s the school festival so I was being considerate since it can turn sour if I show up. After all, it’s me 』

Speaking of which, everything Anya said to the people gathering in front of the school building was lined Kyouko-san would say.

I guess Kyouko-san told her to do that.

『 And since I’m currently wanted for my work the other day, I’m driving in my disguise right now! 』

Oh right, Kyouko-san and Miss Cordelia robbed a jewelry store.

『 She wasn’t there on that job so it was okay to put her in the front 』

Right, Anya wasn’t in the jewelry robbery.

『 You know, my setting is that I’ve returned to Brazil already 』

Anya had gone to Southeast Asia to bring the friends of the drill sisters.

Kyouko-san left a trace to the police that she left Japan and went to Brazil.

She pretended to have no contact for a few days.

「 Kyouko-san, what’s your disguise? 」

Nei asks.

『 Oh? I’m wearing the masked racer costume in Memory of Aikawa Kinkin 』

「 Oh, I guess that won’t get exposed! 」

What’s a masked racer?

『 Also, the armored car looks cool, right? I was about to show it off as the main weapon of the Kyouko empire in the next TV special. I’m thinking of painting it with a red brick color and calling it Sol Amber 』

「 Oh, I see. This definitely looks like Sol Amber 」

Nei’s the only one who got it.

『 Right? Everyone can definitely tell that this is Sol Amber 』

Err.

「 Edie, what’s Sol Amber? 」

I asked.

Megu’s also looking confused. She doesn’t know it either.

「 Sorry, I don’t know either 」

To think that even Edie who knows a lot, doesn’t find this familiar.

「 It’s also known as an A-Mech, and when it transforms, it becomes Ideo Delta! 」

Nei said laughingly

『 Oops, we’re about to arrive 』

Kyouko-san’s voice comes out of the speakers.

「 Arrived? Where? 」

We’re not that far yet, right?

It looks like we just went around the school building.

『 To the bakery’s open cafe, obviously 』

Oh, right.

That’s where we will return.

Mitama and Tsukiko are there.

「 Mana-chan and the twins should’ve arrived by now! 」

Nei said.

Then that means Kinuka’s also joining us, our security is getting better.

「 Right, we can’t stay in this car for long. 」

As expected, Kyouko-san can’t send the Ishigami siblings in a car she’s driving.

We’ll have them enter the bakery’s break room for now.

We should let Kudou-papa bring in a normal courtesy car.

『 Still, remain cautious, there should be another group waiting in front of the open cafe 』

Anya’s voice comes from the speaker.

「 Well yeah, even the enemy knows that we’re eventually returning there 」

Kouzuki SS rebel troops know information about me.

Even if I run away, they know that I’ll come back if they just wait in the bakery.

『 I’ll get off first and attract attention in the open cafe 』

If Anya shows up in the car, people will focus on her as she’s famous on TV.

「 You and I will go out first too, we’re taking down our enemies. Can you do it? 」

Edie asks Kurose Anju-san

「 Y-Yes 」

Kurose-san nods with a nervous expression.

「 Don’t worry, Ryoko’s on top of the vehicle so she got this covered 」

As soon as Edie and Kurose-san jumps out, Kinosh*ta-san will come down and protect us

「 You need to take them down that they can’t even make a noise, but if you can’t do that, just shout that he’s a molester and take him out 」

「 O-Okay 」

So she’s going to use that method if trouble comes.

The poor enemy who will get framed as a molester.

Kurose-san’s a cute girl so people will agree with her.

「 But, if that happens, it’s going to be shameful as a bodyguard 」

「 I-I understand. 」

『 Oh, don’t expect from the two drill girls who are on top of the car 』

Anya said.

『 I’m strict about them not doing anything other than being lookouts 』

「 Dolly and Anna doesn’t know how to hold back after all 」

I muttered.

Those sisters are assassins so they make sure to kill their enemies.

If they were to strike the vitals with such sharp drills spinning, anyone would die.

『 Therefore, don’t go outside until the cleanup is over. In their minds, you’re the absolute master. If they think that you’re in danger, Dolly and Anna will ignore my orders and jump in with their drill spears 』

R-Right.

That’s definitely bad.

Anyway, it’s hard to treat these girls.

「 Okay, Anya. I won’t go outside the car until it’s clear 」

「 You should also wait here with Darling 」

Edie told the Ishigami siblings.

「 It’s dangerous outside 」

「 O-Okay 」

「 I-It can’t be helped then 」

The Ishigami siblings are convinced this time.

『 Okay, we’ve arrived. 』

The armored car decelerates.

◇　◇　◇

「 We can tell what’s going on outside with this 」

Edie checks the monitors attached to the exterior cameras.

Oh, the armored car is parked about ten meters away from the front of the open cafe.

Yeah, if we get too close, it’ll get dusty and disturb the customers of the cafe.

Besides, we need this distance to draw in our enemies.

「 Oh, Mitama-san and Kinuka-san’s there 」

Megu saw the Anjou sisters in the cafe.

Also, Kana-senpai and Mana are on the shop.

The twins are probably inside the bakery.

「 Everyone, good day! 」

Anya opens the passenger seat and left the armored car.

「 Ooh, it’s Nikita-san! 」

「 Nikita-san also came over to play in our school festival! 」

Just like with the front of the school building earlier, the customers in the open cafe begin to make noise.

「 Let’s go! 」

「 Y-Yes! 」

They crack open the rear troop hatch from the inside and then…

Edie and Kurose-san jumps out.

At the same time, Kinosh*ta-san goes from the top of the car to the front of the hatch.

「 Oh, they’re coming 」

I can see some men moving suspiciously on the monitor.

They ignore Anya, moving this way.

「 There we go 」

Edie flexes her legs and twists her legs.

Then.

「 I’ll let you take care of the right side 」

She speeds up.

「 Y-Yes 」

Kurose-san follows Edie.

Edie approaches her enemies and lightly reaches out to them.

Did she touch them or not, it was too fast that we don’t know.

But, they definitely collapse after a single blow.

On the other hand, Kurose-san.

「 She’s doing well 」

Kinosh*ta-san, who’s standing in front of the hatch, holding her flail, watches her movement and said.

「 She’s nimble and quick in making decisions 」

Although, her speed isn’t as fast as Edie’s, but…

She’s using blind spots for the customers in the open cafe.

Knocking out enemies in a single attack.

「 She knows that she’s lacking and so she doesn’t force herself to do the impossible. She uses her head to bring down her opponent reliably 」

Yeah, she doesn’t panic. She keeps her calm and smart head.

She just took down her second.

Edie’s right. This girl is strong, she’s training every day.

It makes me want her more.

「 I’m sure that girl will get better if we take her 」

Kinosh*ta-san gives her stamp of approval.

However.

「!! 」

The third one avoided her attacks.

T-This is bad.

Kinosh*ta-san took out her shuriken.

At that moment.

「 Kyaaa, molester! 」

Kurose-san shouted without hesitation!

「 Huh? 」

In that instant that her enemy flinched

「 Noooooo!!! 」

She gave her opponent a high-kick

「 What, molester? 」

「 What’s going on? 」

The open cafe customers turn to Kurose-san, and meanwhile.

Kurose-san took another enemy.

And Edie took the remaining down.

「 They were trying to touch her butt so I knocked them out 」

Edie speaks loudly.

「 Hey, are you okay? 」

「 Are you sure they’re still alive? 」

They know that Edie’s a champion in a martial arts tournament, so…

They’re surprised to see collapsed men.

「 Don’t worry, they won’t die from that much 」

「 Yeah, we’re okay. They just fainted 」

Anya and Edie affirmed.

Then.

Bubbu!!

A truck is running in for some reason.

The one driving it is…

「 Oh, get those who collapsed in my truck. I’ll carry them to the clinic! 」

It was Kudou-papa

The truck’s bay already had several people in it.

Kudou-papa’s subordinates, and, the two Edie took down in the school building

「 Yeah, you all, get them in 」

「 Okay! 」

A few of Kudou-papa’s men from the passenger seat and the back of the truck put the collapsed enemies on the truck one after another.

「 We’re retrieving all the enemies we took down and we’ll have them spit out information 」

Kinosh*ta-san tells me.

We have to find out who the mastermind of all of this is.

We need to check the information leak and plug the holes.

「 Can we go outside now? 」

Megu asks worriedly.

「 Yes, I don’t think there are any more enemy units 」

Kinosh*ta-san replies.

「 Megu-chan, get off first 」

「 Ah, okay 」

Nei and Megu went out of the hatch first.

「 Then, we should 」

「 R-Right… 」

Ishigami Mizuki and Norio tried to follow Nei and get off the car.

「 Oh, wait you two 」

Kinosh*ta-san smiles.

「 Hey, don’t joke with me! I can’t endure staying in this car anymore 」

「 I don’t want this anymore 」

As soon as they protested to Kinosh*ta-san.

「 Okay, excuse me 」

Tsukiko appears from a blind spot.

「 Let’s cut off your consciousness for now 」

The Ishigami siblings turned stiff and their thoughts went to stop.

「 We need to check their memories too 」

Tsukiko tells me.

Right, we can’t just leave out the information coming from these dumb siblings.

Like, how they went to our school.

Or if they were having loose tongues that they spread around the news.

We need to investigate the process of how the enemy contacted the Ishigami house.

「 And so, I shall… 」

Tsukiko entered the armored car.

「 We’ll recruit that girl too 」

Kinosh*ta-san looked at Kurose-san and said.

Edie looked at me and smiled.

「 Yo-chan, leave the rest to us. Look forward to it 」

Nei smiled.

「 Hey, Nei-oneesan?! 」

Megu’s surprised.

Batan!

Kinosh*ta-san closed the armored car.

Inside the Military car are…

Just Tsukiko, the Ishigami siblings, and me.

Buoooon!!!

Kyouko-san drives off the armored car.
